Chapter 86 Calling for Help
Reading Settings
As Yunxi's running sound grew louder, the wild boars also heard the commotion.
Unexpectedly, the wild boars were not afraid of Yunxi's footsteps at all; on the contrary, they charged directly towards Yunxi.
This guy's trying to kill himself!
Unfortunately, Yunxi's abilities were not weak either. As long as they dared to come near her and were within five meters, they all entered her space.
As wild boars entered the space, the number of wild boars in the cornfield decreased.
Those wild boars weren't too stupid. Seeing their companions disappearing one by one, some of the cowardly ones didn't dare to come forward.
Yunxi immediately drove the wild boars towards the village. If they didn't go, she would immediately spawn a vine and lash them out.
Although I don't have much ability, I can still drive away a few wild boars.
I took a quick look at the remaining wild boars; they were all small wild boars, weighing around 50 or 60 pounds, and there were about six of them in total.
It seems that the bigger ones were also quite bold, rushing straight at me, so I took them into my space, leaving the smaller ones behind.
They only weigh about 50 or 60 kilograms each, so the total weight is only about 300 kilograms, which is not much at all.
As they got closer to the village, Yunxi felt it was about time to call out, so as not to appear too relaxed.
"Help! A wild boar has come down the mountain! Come and catch it!"
Yunxi originally thought her voice would be very soft, but she didn't expect that after she shouted it out, it was like a loudspeaker. In less than ten seconds, she heard the kerosene lamps in the houses in the village light up.
In less than a minute, I heard the sound of people running this way, and I could even see that they were carrying various hoes, wooden sticks and other things.
For the villagers, food is the most important thing. When wild boars come down from the mountain, they are there to damage the crops. There's really nothing to say about that; if they encounter one, they just have to fight it.
Yunxi saw that her uncles and other young men in the village were running very fast.
I can get to my spot in just a minute or two.
Hearing the commotion coming from the village, the six little wild boars became anxious and tried to run towards the mountain.
Unfortunately, Yunxi saw them. How could she let them leave? At least they had to leave their flesh behind; their souls could go.
If they dared to go up the mountain, she would lash them out. Yunxi had even specially cultivated a vine with barbs, so when she lashed out, it would create wounds, causing the wild boars to howl in pain.
The wild boars were howling loudly, which the villagers who were rushing over heard, and they all started howling too. After all, if they could catch the wild boars, they would share the meat. If they couldn't catch any, they would feel bad about wasting their food. So, to avoid feeling too bad about wasting food, it was better to eat meat.
From afar, Yunxi saw Uncle Seven and Uncle Nine leading the charge. They had been hunting since childhood and were incredibly fast runners, so they rushed straight to the front of the group.
Upon seeing the two of them, Yunxi immediately called out, "Seventh Uncle, Ninth Uncle, come here quickly! There are six wild boar cubs here. The big ones have all run away, leaving only the cubs."
At first, the villagers couldn't recognize whose voice it was, but when they heard Yunxi calling out to Yun Shanhu and Yun Shanbao's seventh and ninth uncles, and because they were very close, they immediately recognized Yunxi's voice.
Yunxi's uncles, whether they were running in front or behind, were terrified when they heard her voice.
You should know that Yunxi is their second uncle's only son. If anything happens to him, the brigade leader will definitely beat them up, and their elders at home won't let them off the hook either.
"Yunxi, what are you doing here? Get out of here right now, it's too dangerous."
Seeing that they were not far from her, Yunxi slowly retreated. Anyway, those wild boars didn't dare to run up the mountain, they only dared to rush towards the village.
If they manage to get through, they might survive; if they don't, then everyone will have to eat them.
In the wild boar's mind, Yunxi was even more terrifying than the villagers, so it would rather rush towards the crowd than dare to rush back.
Seeing that the villagers, led by Uncle Seven and Uncle Nine, had surrounded the six wild boars, Yunxi knew that nothing unexpected had happened.
Anyway, there's no need to worry about those wild boars escaping. It's already so late, so I guess we'll divide up the meat tomorrow so everyone can have some.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and not wanting to attract too much attention, Yunxi went directly to her private plot of land.
Anyway, we're still some distance from where we're hunting wild boars, so while no one's paying attention to us, I'd better quickly water all the vegetables, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes I've planted in my plot.
After watering the plants, I didn't linger outside and went straight home.
After Yun Shanhu and Yun Shanbao led the other villagers to capture all six wild boar piglets, they immediately went to find their little niece.
Not much time had passed at all; after all, they were just six cubs, and the villagers caught them in no time.
I immediately saw my niece heading home. I figured it was getting late, and if there was anything she needed to talk to, I could talk to her tomorrow. I didn't want to disturb her rest now.
The villagers carried the six wild boars directly to the brigade headquarters square, tied them up tightly, left a few people to keep watch, and the rest went home.
Everyone was very excited when they left. They hadn't eaten meat in a long time, and no one was not craving it.
I'll be able to eat meat tomorrow, how could I not be happy? I might even be too excited to sleep tonight.
Some of Yun Shanhu and Yun Shanbao's close friends came up to them directly, putting their arms around each other's shoulders, saying, "Shanhu, your cousin is really something. She didn't run away when she saw the wild boars, and she even dared to stop them from leaving. She's really brave."
"That's right. When the meat is distributed tomorrow, we must make sure the brigade leader gives her a bigger share. If she hadn't shouted that out, we don't know if we would have had the chance to eat meat tomorrow."
Hearing others praise his cousin, Yun Shanhu was also very happy. "What's so great about her? She must be like her father. Her father was so good at fighting. These were just a few wild boars. What's so scary about them? As the saying goes, like father, like daughter."
