Chapter 140 The Fish Has Taken the Bait



Xiaoman wanted to learn about the conditions along the way, so she didn't take the train.

The next day, Xiaoman handed Zuozuo and Youyou over to Grandma Han and then took Xiaohei and the militiamen into the mountains.

Everyone was happy to hear that the militiamen had gone into the mountains. The militiamen always brought back game from their trips. Besides, Xiaoman had gone this time too.

As expected, Xiaoman and the militia did not disappoint.

Around three or four in the afternoon, people working in the fields heard several pig squeals. At first, they thought someone's pigs had escaped from their pen. Later, they realized it was the militia returning.

A: "The militiamen are back, and we'll have meat to eat again."

B: "This time, the wild boars were all alive. Our village militia is getting more and more impressive."

C: "Don't you see who's back? With Captain Wang around, we can catch not only wild boars, but even live tigers."

Ding: "I don't know how they caught him."

The militiamen caught a total of five wild boars. They were immediately surrounded by people as soon as they arrived.

A: "Brother Yong, have you run into a herd of wild boars?"

Han Yong: "Yeah. If we hadn't encountered a herd of wild boars, we wouldn't have been able to catch so many at once."

Ding: "Yongzi, how did you catch these wild boars?"

Han Yong laughed and said, "If you want to know, we'll take you with us next time."

Ding: "I wouldn't dare."

Han Yong: "Didn't you go with us a few years ago?"

Ding: "Isn't that because God didn't give us food? Yongzi, tell us, how did you catch these five wild boars?"

A: "Yes, tell us about it."

Han Yong: "Okay. The team leader led us into the mountains early this morning..."

Han Yong was quite eloquent, and the other militiamen would occasionally add their own comments, making the audience increasingly excited.

A: "That was really exciting!"

B: "I really want to see it with my own eyes."

C: "Yeah, it makes me want to go with you guys. Too bad I don't have your skills. I can only enjoy it from afar."

Ding: "Of course! Yongzi, tell us again, we want to hear it again."

Han Yong was very proud to have caught so many wild boars: "Okay, I'll tell you all about it again."

Just as Han Yong was about to speak, Xiao Man interjected, "Let me perform it for everyone."

As soon as Xiaoman finished speaking, people cheered.

Han Yong was taken aback: "Perform it again?"

Xiaoman nodded. "Training."

"Okay." Han Yong looked at the other militiamen: "Then let's perform it for everyone."

The militiamen: "Good."

Soon, everyone knew that the militiamen were going to perform a demonstration of catching wild boars.

The village chief came over when he heard the news: "Binzi's wife, are you going to lead the militiamen to perform a wild boar-catching show for everyone?"

Xiaoman: "Mmm."

"This..." The village chief was quite concerned: "Is it safe? What if... I wouldn't mind if it were just one wild boar, but five... Binzi's wife, are you sure you can handle it?"

Xiaoman smiled and said, "Tell everyone to step back."

How far should we retreat?

Xiaoman pointed to the strongest of the five pigs: "I'll release it first."

The village chief thought for a moment and then told everyone to step back more than a thousand meters. After everyone had moved back, Xiaoman untied the ropes from the wild boar.

The wild boar ran away as soon as the rope was untied. Xiaoman and the militiamen stood still.

Xiaoman once killed a wild boar by smashing it with a clod of earth, so people are not afraid.

When the wild boar had run about 500 or 600 meters, Xiaoman patted Xiaohei. Xiaohei instantly darted out. In the blink of an eye, Xiaohei was in front of the wild boar. Then, Xiaohei kicked the wild boar right in front of Xiaoman. The wild boar died without even a sound.

Everyone initially thought Xiaoman would throw clods of dirt at the wild boar. Unexpectedly, Xiaoman sent out Xiao Hei instead. It took a while for people to realize what was happening.

A: "My goodness!"

B: "Wow, Xiao Hei is so amazing!"

C: "No wonder Binzi's wife takes it everywhere she goes."

Previously, Xiao Hei followed Xiao Man around every day, never going to the fields or pulling the millstone. People thought: This Wang Xiao Man is really something, raising a horse but not letting it do any work.

B: "Village chief, are you relieved now? With Wang Xiaoman and Xiao Hei around, those wild boars won't have a chance to hurt anyone. Besides, there's Han Yong and the others too."

C: "That's right. Don't worry, Village Chief."

Ding: "Village chief, everyone just works all day long. It's not easy for Binzi's wife to want to show everyone how to catch a wild boar, so please don't stop her."

A: "That's right. Village chief, Binzi's wife will be leaving in a few days."

Everyone wanted to see, so Xiaoman had Xiaohei demonstrate his abilities again. The village chief thought for a moment and agreed. However, he added, "You all stand back a bit."

After everyone agreed, the militiamen carried the remaining four pigs to the open space.

People working in the fields gathered around.

Li Qiaoqiao and Tian Dahua also came over.

After Xiaoman (the beginning of summer), he asked people to step back and then untied all four wild boars.

Then, the militiamen began demonstrating how to catch wild boars.

Soon, the militiamen caught all four wild boars.

People applauded and cheered.

A: "Han Yong, you guys are really amazing."

B: "It was great, but we didn't get enough. Yongzi, please perform it for everyone again."

Ding: "Yes. Let's do it again."

Han Yong laughed and said, "Do you guys think we're monkeys?"

B: "We think of you as Wu Song."

Ding: "Yes, you are all Wu Song."

Xiaoman smiled and said, "Since everyone hasn't had enough, let's perform it again. But it would be too boring if it were the same as before. Let's try something different."

Han Yong: "Okay. What kind of trick should we try?"

“You teach everyone how to hide when they encounter wild boars. Then we’ll release these wild boars, and whoever dares to fight them will get ten pounds of meat.”

"That's a good idea. We can learn how to avoid wild boars and get ten pounds of meat at the same time."

"Go and discuss it with the village chief first. If the village chief agrees, then you can tell the others."

"good."

Han Yong ran over and whispered a few words to the village chief. After watching the militiamen's performance, the village chief was no longer worried.

After the village chief agreed, Han Yong told everyone. The bolder ones immediately said they wanted to participate. The timid ones, who wanted to eat meat, asked Han Yong if they could participate later.

When Han Yong returned, he asked Xiaoman, who said, "Okay. The distribution is limited to the weight of these four pigs. Once these four pigs are divided, no one else can participate. The pig that Xiao Hei kicked to death will be divided among the whole village." Although that pig was large, if the whole village shared it, they wouldn't get many ounces of meat. In other words, whoever is boldest gets to eat more meat.

"good."

After Han Yong explained Xiaoman's meaning to everyone, even more people participated.

Han Yong first taught everyone how to avoid wild boars. After he finished teaching, the braver ones practiced with the wild boars.

Seeing that they were alright, several more people signed up. A few women also wanted to try, so they asked Han Yong if women could participate. Han Yong didn't even need to ask Xiaoman, because he knew she would definitely agree.

Seeing that there were women participating, Tian Dahua asked Li Qiaoqiao, "I want to participate, are you going to participate?"

“We don’t need to participate. With Second Sister-in-law here, we’re sure to have meat to eat.”

"I know. I wanted to bring some meat to my mother."

After hearing Tian Dahua's suggestion, Li Qiaoqiao was also tempted. Li Qiaoqiao's mother had long wanted Li Qiaoqiao to get her some meat. But how could Li Qiaoqiao possibly get meat? Seeing that everyone else was fine, Li Qiaoqiao signed up with Tian Dahua.

Seeing Li Qiaoqiao and Tian Dahua asking Han Yong to sign them up, Xiaoman smiled. The fish had taken the bait.
