Chapter 44043. His right eye twitched, he was going to die
Make a plan.
Then execute.
Lei Li and Zhou Yi waited in the mountains and by the river for more than half a month, and finally saw the female wild boar again, and a dozen patterned piglets.
Lei Li reached over with a grass knife in hand.
Wild boars have a keen sense of smell.
Lei Li had smeared strong-smelling mugwort juice on his body, but as he slowly approached, the alert wild boar still sensed a hint of danger.
The female wild boar pricked up her ears and raised her head, her nose humming as she tried to distinguish things in the air.
“Swish!”
He cried out anxiously.
The female wild boar discovered and recognized Lei Li, and knew that her companions who could not return had most likely died at his hands. In order to protect her cubs, she ran away panting.
“Hehe——”
“Hehe——”
The frightened little wild boars grunted and tried to follow their mother with their short legs. Some of them stuck close to their mother's feet, while others were so slow that they fell down.
"Zhou Yi!"
Lei Li didn't hide anymore, and flew out from the bushes, chasing the wild boars. "Let's do as we agreed! You chase them over there, and I'll chase them over here!"
"knew!"
Zhou Yi also followed the wild boars with a machete in his hand, chasing them neither too fast nor too slow, just like herding sheep. When he saw them running away, he would throw stones at them and lead them to the predetermined direction.
"That big one is going to be urgent, let's deal with it first, you watch and help me."
Lei Li rushed forward as he spoke, taking two steps at a time, and flashed to the front of the female wild boar among the dense bushes and leaves.
Sharp grass knife.
It reflects a dense white light.
Suddenly, the knife chopped the sow's back, leaving a deep blood mark with the curved tip of the knife, and the bright red blood splattered onto the leaves.
And Lei Li’s cold and pale face.
Cold and sharp, like a knife, Zhou Yi's heart and eyelids jumped when he saw it.
Right eye twitching.
He's going to be in trouble.
A sense of crisis flashed through Zhou Yi's mind, and he felt something was wrong. Why did he have the feeling that "my life is over", but he couldn't die and felt so cowardly?
...Is it an illusion?
“Chihu——”
The female wild boar howled in pain, and her eyes of hatred and fear suddenly turned to Lei Li. She exhaled heavily, and her sharp white fangs were like blades.
“Hehe——”
The female wild boar did not stop, relying on her thick skin and flesh, and rushed through the low bushes, trying to escape from the pursuit with her cubs.
"It wants to run!"
Lei Li chased after him, and the branch scratched bloody marks on Lei Li's face. The bright blood dyed his eyebrows red, but his warm lips uttered cold words.
"Zhou Yi! Stop it! If you can't catch it alive, you'll have to take it dead!"
"I see."
Zhou Yi also walked very quickly.
When he participated in the military district simulation competition and was almost caught by the enemy, he had never run so fast. It was so fast that before his eyes could analyze the route, his feet had already landed at the most suitable place for tracking.
“Hehe——”
“Ahh…”
One of the little wild boars couldn't keep up with the big wild boar, and it stumbled and fell, groaning. Its mother only glanced back at it, and then it disappeared from sight.
“Hehe——”
“Hmph…”
The little wild boars were terrified and tried to call their mother, but when their mother did not respond, they huddled together in groups of three or two, grunting in fear at the slightest noise.
"Don't worry about the little ones, catch the big ones first!"
Lei Li kept his eyes fixed on the wild boar. He slipped and fell. Seeing Zhou Yi stop and come over to look at him, he said:
"It's okay! Leave me alone! Don't let the boar get away!"
"Be careful!"
Zhou Yi believed him and nodded without much hesitation. He continued to track the wild boar and tried to drive it to the place they had arranged.
But this wild boar was much smarter than the previous one.
It seemed to have seen through the human's intentions, and suddenly turned left and then rushed right. The changing route caused Zhou Yi to suffer a little loss.
But the straight line is the shortest distance between two points, and the roundabout route also allowed Lei Li to catch up faster, blocking the female wild boar on both sides, gradually making her panic and at a loss.
Moreover, the cubs were holding it back, and it had already lost some of its children. It also wanted to protect as many of the remaining children as possible, which gave Lei Li an opportunity.
Lei Li is very brave.
From a distance, he dared to throw a grass knife at the female wild boar. The sharp white blade passed through the gaps between the branches and almost hit the wild boar's head, startling it and making it scream.
Then suddenly——
"Bang!"
“Swish!”
“Chichi——”
With the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the big wild boar's struggling and shrill cries were heard, and the little wild boar also howled and groaned, confused and panicked.
They fell into a trap.
Lei Li's knife startled the big wild boar. In addition, the trap was covered with several layers of dead branches and leaves, so the female wild boar and several of her cubs fell into the big pit. They kept banging their heads against the wall and digging the soil, and were so anxious that they couldn't get out.
"Finally caught..."
Lei Li was breathing heavily.
He gets red easily, whether it's from drinking or exercising, and this short but intense exercise gave him a light red tint from his face to his neck.
The wild boar's scarlet blood was still on the end of his eyebrow.
A little itchy.
Lei Li casually wiped his forehead and eyebrows, and then wiped the sweat from his face and lips. The blood beads were inadvertently smudged and spread to the corners of his lips.
"Are you okay?"
Zhou Yi asked as he sheathed his knife and walked over. Seeing Lei Li leaning against the tree somewhat detachedly, with a little red on his cheeks and lips, he reached out to help him wipe off the blood.
soft.
It's completely different from the cold and hard look.
Zhou Yi thought to himself, and his right eyelid twitched again. Right eye twitching...feudal superstition is not good.
"I'm fine."
Lei Li shook his head. After catching his breath for a while, he had recovered. "Only six piglets and the wild boar fell down. There are still nine piglets left. Let's go find those first."
"There are still people in the mountains. If others capture them, we will have to fight them off."
"Then let's look for it together."
"Separately."
"and you……"
"I'm fine. I can kill any big wild boar that comes. A few little piglets are nothing."
Lei Li thought he was making a fuss, so he waved his hand and was about to leave, but then turned back. "No, someone has to watch over me. What if someone is blind and takes a liking to me? You stay here."
"The big one is still inside. It won't be able to come out for a while."
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "Hide the trap well. If the wild boars stop calling, no one will find them. I'll go with you to look for them. Call me every once in a while so we can keep each other informed of their location, just in case."
"Okay."
Lei Li thought about it and felt that it made sense. Besides, the wild boar was so ferocious that even if someone came, it would be difficult to get rid of them so quickly.
The troops were divided into two groups.
In order to catch this group of wild boars, Lei Li and Zhou Yi dug large pits and set traps in several places, and also prepared a bundle of vines and a large backpack specifically for catching the little wild boars.
Small wild boars are easier to catch than large wild boars, but they are a little hard to find due to their small size and dense jungle.
Lei Li wandered around for a while and found three of them. After listening for a while, he found two more little ones entangled in vines in a bush.
A little pig was eating mushrooms in the open space.
Just as Lei Li was about to go over and catch it, suddenly, a damn eagle flew down and grabbed the piglet right in front of Lei Li.
Lei Li threw the grass knife but failed to hit anything, and he was so angry that he cursed for a long time.
Including the ones Zhou Yi found, eight of the nine wild boar cubs were recovered, one was captured, and the other one could not be found no matter where it was hiding.
Eight piglets had their limbs tied and were thrown into a backpack, squealing loudly.
Zhou Yi carried a backpack in each hand and, following Lei Li's instructions, took the piglets home first, then brought dinner and food for the group of piglets at the bottom of the pit.
It's a basket of grass.
There was some medicine mixed in it that could make pigs faint.
Lei Li originally wanted to put intoxicating grass, but then he thought that pigs eat grass and they would definitely be able to smell that this grass was inedible, so he reluctantly spent money to buy the animal's knockout drug.
The wild boar was quite cautious at first.
But after Lei Li and Zhou Yi threw down the grass and covered the entrance to the cave, there was no other movement.
The sky gradually darkened, and the wild boar thought that the two humans might have left. After the previous meal, he was very hungry and could not help eating.
The little wild boar was already very hungry and began to eat with a grunt.
"They should all be asleep."
Lei Li estimated the time and pushed aside the branches to see that the big wild boar and the little wild boar were sleeping together, swaying here and there and snoring.
"Hey, big pig, are you awake?"
Lei Li picked up a stone and threw it at the wild boar's head. The wild boar felt pain and just groaned a few times before snoring again.
"Sleep soundly, I'll go down and bring up the wild boar."
"I'll do it."
Zhou Yi jumped down from the pit and kicked the wild boar cautiously. Seeing that it didn't move and didn't seem to be pretending, he tied it up with vines.
Tied tightly.
Even the fangs and beak were tied up.
The limbs of several little piglets were tied up, and some were thrown into a backpack, hung up with vines, and asked Lei Li to pull them up. The big wild boar was heavy, so he just tied it around its body and let him pull it.
Zhou Yi grabbed hold of the pit mouth and jumped up in no time. He carried the big wild boar on his shoulder. Seeing Lei Li carrying a backpack, he took out two more wild boars from his backpack and carried them.
"Let's go. You carry the oil lamp."
"become."
Although Lei Li felt that these piglets were not heavy, he was still very touched to see Zhou Yi being so considerate, and walked in front holding an oil lantern.
The moonlight is clear.
The path in the forest was so bright that there was no need for a lantern, so as soon as they left the forest, Lei Li blew out the wick.
While asking Zhou Yi, "We've almost found the herbs for the soup, and Mr. Miao has also found and dried the mushrooms. When are you planning to sell them?"
"Tomorrow I'm going to the county town to sell wild boars and test the waters. I'll give a few packs to the owner of the wild game restaurant. Once he tastes them and likes them, he'll contact us."
Zhou Yi planned, "Mrs. Zhu's husband works as an accountant in the landlord's house. The landlord's eldest son is a businessman in the north. The north must be in need of medicinal herbs and mushrooms from the south."
"become."
Lei Li listened and felt a little happy. She thought she was really awesome. Any husband she picked would be so outstanding.
"However, soup packets are easy to copy, and someone will definitely sell them soon. We earn money from first-hand business."
Zhou Yi said as he walked, "Once we open up sales channels and build up a certain network of contacts, it will be easier for us to sell anything we want in the future... Lei Li!"
"Bang!"
A heavy object falls to the ground.
