She rushed over and snatched the wolf king from Yu Suqin's hand.
"You bitch, let go! This is the wolf my granddaughter killed."
"Whoever gets it first gets it."
When faced with the challenge of survival, Yu Suqin was willing to risk everything. No matter what Old Mrs. Zhao said, she refused to give up.
Old Mrs. Zhao was getting on in years, while Yu Suqin was young and vigorous. The two pulled back and forth, and for a time it was difficult to determine a winner.
Even though they were both exhausted and panting, neither of them was willing to give up first, and they remained locked in a stalemate, staring at each other.
Zhang rushed over to help her mother-in-law, and Lin Qiutao seized the opportunity to bite down hard on her hand.
"Ouch! Why are you biting me?"
Zhang looked at the bleeding teeth marks on her hand and cried out in pain.
In the blink of an eye, the whole scene turned into chaos, with the entire village coming out to fight over the wolf carcass.
"Stop! Stop fighting!" the village chief shouted several times, but it was no use.
The Yun family was terrified by the chaotic situation in Linjia Village. Yun's mother even gave birth and told her son to take them away quickly.
Lin Yinan was furious. She rushed forward and kicked Yu Suqin and her daughter to the ground. When Lin Zhaohui tried to step forward, she pulled out an arrow and pressed it against his throat.
"Come here if you don't want to die!"
His throat was just a hair's breadth away from being slit.
Lin Zhaohui broke out in a cold sweat and dared not move again.
Lin Yinan snatched the broken copper gong hanging from the village chief's waist and struck it a dozen times. The villagers gradually quieted down and looked at her.
Lin Yinan swept her gaze around with a cold look, her chin held high.
"Now, put the wolves you have here, and the village will make arrangements for them."
The villagers looked at the village chief and then at the clan chief, seemingly waiting for them to speak.
Lin Yinan asked the village chief, "Village chief, what do you think?"
The village chief swallowed hard and said dryly, "Put all the wolves here and they will be assigned to different groups by the village. Anyone who does not comply will be expelled from the clan."
Soon, everyone put the wolves back.
The clan chief looked at the dozen or so wolves on the ground and asked the village chief, "Ah Cai, why don't you tell me how to divide them?"
The village chief wanted to be fair, so he suggested, "How about we divide it according to the families with the most members?"
He had barely finished speaking when Lin Yinan said, "I disagree!"
The village chief turned to look at her, quite displeased that a woman like her was questioning him. "Then how do you think it should be divided?"
"I killed six wolves, including the wolf king. How much do you think is appropriate for me, village chief?"
Lin Yinan didn't answer but asked a question instead. Then, as if remembering something, she added, "I don't mind parting ways with everyone and leaving the clan with my family."
Although there is strength in numbers when fleeing, judging from what the people of Linjia Village have done, it would not be a problem for her and her brother to lead their family south with their own strength.
As for clan or not, she wasn't a local and didn't care at all.
Upon hearing this, the village chief's face immediately turned grim.
The clan chief and the elders exclaimed, "Absolutely not!"
They had witnessed firsthand the fierceness of Lin Yinan and his sister; when faced with difficulties, only the two of them would step forward.
"I killed four wolves in total, and Anan killed six, one of which was the wolf king," Lin Yiheng said loudly.
Seeing that Linjia Village didn't remember their family at all, Zhu Jinhui jumped out and said, "I saw it clearly, my Yunzhi killed three wolves."
The village chief's face instantly turned grim; there were only twenty wolves in total.
He still wanted to seek personal gain for his family, but it seems that's no longer possible.
Finally, under Lin Yinan's strong intervention, the ten wolf pelts that the brother and sister had hunted were theirs, she took the meat from four wolves, and the village chief was free to distribute the rest.
Lin Yiheng persuaded Old Mrs. Zhao and her uncle and aunt to entrust him with the safekeeping of the wolf meat.
Under his cover, Lin Yinan secretly stored the wolf leg in his spatial storage, leaving only one wolf leg for the next day to eat, and also gave one wolf leg to Liu Ji and his sister.
Although Liu Ji did not personally kill the wolves, he did his best to protect the livestock at home.
Zhu Jinhui waited for Lin Yinan to present her with the wolf king's pelt, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't even get a piece of wolf meat. She was so angry that she almost stomped a hole in the mud.
Yunmu was impressed by Lin Yinan's powerful aura and felt that she and her Sanlang were a perfect match.
What a pity...
The farce of the wolf-dividing drama has come to an end, and at the same time, it has made Lin Yinan see the true nature of many people. If they want to gain something for nothing, they'll have to see if she'll allow it.
The sky was beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn, and everyone was busy packing up to leave. The stench of blood here was too strong and might attract large wild animals.
Everyone received some wolf meat, and Lin Yinan helped tie the food to the horses.
"Ah! Help!"
Liu Ji stumbled and ran back after going to fetch water.
When everyone looked in the direction of the sound, they discovered that he was carrying a huge black bear on his back.
"Bear!"
"The bear is coming!"
Black bears, also known as blind bears, have a very sensitive sense of smell and hearing, and can smell scents from a great distance with the wind at their backs.
The black bear was so fast that the villagers hadn't even had time to react before they were terrified and retreated. Some of the braver men used machetes and hoes to protect their families.
Winter is approaching, and black bears need to stockpile enough fat for hibernation before winter arrives.
Lin Yinan took the bow and arrow off his back, aimed, and fired an arrow.
The arrow pierced the black bear's eye, causing it to roar in pain and charge at Lin Yinan without regard for its surroundings.
Lin Yinan shot another arrow at its neck. The black bear paused for a moment, but its speed did not slow down at all. Lin Yinan slung the bow and arrow behind his back, and the dagger slid out of his sleeve and was held in his hand.
Yun Mo was faster than her; he leaped into the air and slashed at the black bear's neck with all his might.
The black bear has thick skin and flesh, and even though its neck was cut, it seemed unaware and continued to charge towards Lin Yinan.
Holding a dagger, Lin Yinan slid forward and crawled under the black bear.
"Anan!" Li Shulan shouted, her heart pounding in her throat.
The villagers were all worried for her.
Lin Yinan emerged from behind the black bear, and the black bear immediately collapsed to the ground.
Yun Mo and his men surrounded the bear, and saw that its internal organs and intestines were all spilling out.
The bear had already been gutted by Lin Yinan.
Yun Mo was astonished, witnessing Lin Yinan's formidable strength once again.
When the villagers saw the black bear fall to the ground, they rushed forward with hoes and kitchen knives, intending to finish off the fallen bear.
Lin Yinan stopped him in time, "Stop! Don't damage the bear skin."
"Wow, what a huge bear!"
Looking at the bear, which weighed several hundred pounds, the village chief shamelessly stepped forward and asked Lin Yinan, "Yinan, how do we divide this bear?"
Lin Yinan looked at Yun Mo, "What do you mean?"
"You killed the bear, so I have no objection to how you divide it," Yun Mo waved his hand at her.
"I'll take the bear skin and gallbladder, you can have the bear paws, and we'll divide the bear meat among ourselves. What do you think?"
I agree!
Yun Mo greatly admired Lin Yinan's decisive and efficient work style.
The poor bear, drawn by the strong smell of blood, thought it would have a good meal, but ended up becoming a feast for the Lin family villagers.
