With the wild boar dead, things became much easier. All the educated youth climbed down from the tree, as it wasn't a comfortable place to stay, especially since their legs were weak. After coming down from the tree, they all collapsed onto the ground.
However, since the wild boar was shot, Yang Xingguo said he was afraid the smell of blood would attract other wild animals, so he told everyone to hurry down the mountain and avoid the area for a while, and to wait until the smell of blood had dissipated before coming back.
Upon hearing that wild animals might be coming, everyone present, especially the educated youth who had just been terrified, no longer cared about their weak hands and feet. They hurriedly got up to look for their lost belongings and followed the hunting team as they carried the wild boar down the mountain.
Along the way, the group encountered many villagers. Upon seeing the hunting team carrying wild boars, the villagers lost all interest in chopping firewood and followed the hunting team back to the village.
When the group returned to the village, news of the hunting team's success in killing a wild boar had spread throughout the village, and many people were already waiting at the brigade headquarters.
Although the hunting team catches a lot of prey every year, in such an era of food and water shortage, catching a large prey like a wild boar meant that everyone could get a share of the meat.
The villagers who had meat to eat were naturally happy; their eyes shone brightly. The ugly-looking wild boar now looked like a plate of delicious pork to them.
The children, making no attempt to hide their excitement, circled around the hunting team carrying the wild boar and several male educated youths.
Chen Shuning did not go to the brigade headquarters with everyone, but went straight back to the educated youth compound after descending the mountain.
Knowing herself well, she still didn't want to watch the scene of slaughtering a pig, for fear of having nightmares.
The other educated youth, upon hearing that the meat would be distributed after the pig was slaughtered, and that everyone would get a share, all went directly with them.
When Wang Chunni saw that Chen Shuning wasn't going, she offered to bring the meat back for her.
Gu Xinyi and Gao Hongyuan also didn't go. Gu Xinyi was too frightened to look at the wild boar again, while Gao Hongyuan naturally stayed behind to take care of his girlfriend.
The two hadn't been on good terms lately, mainly because too many women were eyeing Gao Hongyuan.
Gu Xinyi also had a bit of a spoiled princess attitude, so there were always various conflicts between the two of them.
This time, Gao Hongyuan risked his life to save someone, which moved Gu Xinyi and stabilized their fluctuating relationship, making her no longer doubt Gao Hongyuan's feelings for her.
After saying goodbye to Chen Shuning, Gu Xinyi was helped back to her small house by Gao Hongyuan.
Back home, Chen Shuning glanced at the coal in the stove pit, which was still burning, and then ignored the fire.
I scooped up some hot water to wash my hands and face, and changed out of my dirty clothes.
I glanced at the time and it was already past 1 p.m., no wonder my stomach was already rumbling.
Thinking that at this moment, besides herself, the only other people in the educated youth settlement were Gu Xinyi and Gao Hongyuan, and given how affectionate the two of them had been just now, they probably wouldn't have time to pay attention to her.
So he simply stopped cooking, locked the door, and hid in his private space to enjoy a steak feast.
To calm herself down, Chen Shuning drank a glass of red wine.
This encounter with wild boars in the mountains really scared her. In Chen Shuning's eyes, wild boars were much scarier than the enemy agents she had encountered before.
In her past life, Chen Shuning was prone to getting drunk easily, and she didn't expect to be the same in this life. Just a small sip of red wine made her feel dizzy, so she quickly put down her wine glass and dared not drink any more.
Looking at the wine cabinet in the Western restaurant, which was full of various red wines, I thought that this Western restaurant must have a whole warehouse full of such red wines.
Chen Shuning was somewhat annoyed by the various kinds of alcohol that were also available in the supermarket downstairs.
Thinking that Wang Chunni might bring him wild boar meat later, Chen Shuning drank a glass of spiritual spring water to sober up, even though the red wine tasted very good and the feeling of being slightly tipsy was great.
After eating and drinking his fill, Chen Shuning saw that he still had some time, so he decided to go to the livestock area to see how much feed the livestock had left.
The livestock feed in the space was all prepared by Chen Shuning himself, made from grains and vegetables produced in the space. There were large feed machines in the livestock area, so all he had to do was put the raw materials in and press a button, which was quite convenient.
Because raising livestock produces manure, which smells bad, Chen Shuning built the livestock area at the foot of the mountain, the furthest point from the villa area.
It's a bit far, a 20-minute drive, so Chen Shuning always puts in a month's worth of feed each time.
Before going to the livestock area, Chen Shuning went to the farm first and saw that the vegetables and grains in the fields were ripe.
So they first collected a batch of vegetables and grains needed to make feed, and then transported them to the livestock area in a small truck.
When we arrived at the livestock area, we saw that the chickens and ducks in the enclosure were indeed crowded together, and the grass was covered with white and green chicken eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs.
The pig, cow, and sheep pens were relatively fine, but in the pig pen, quite a few piglets were running around behind their mothers, grunting and puffing.
There were a few lambs in the sheepfold, but not as many as the pigs.
The livestock in the space are fed with crops produced in the space, and Chen Shuning occasionally adds a little spiritual spring water to their drinking water.
Therefore, the animals in the space are all in good physical condition, and their reproduction is similar to that of wild animals, so Chen Shuning doesn't need to worry about it much.
Looking at the pigpen that was already full and the fat pigs that were so fat they could barely move, Chen Shuning was a little worried. In the past, pigs of that weight would have been sent to the slaughterhouse long ago.
But given the current situation, going to the slaughterhouse is definitely out of the question; we'll probably have to find a way through the black market.
