Chapter 1017: Killing the Wild Boars
The action of the Chinese cabbage hitting the ground startled them; she had intended to lure one over so they would split left and right, allowing her to kill them one by one, but she did not expect the two large ones, along with the two small ones, to all head toward the freshly fallen cabbage.
Liu Chuxue, furious, rolled her eyes straight up to the sky; truly, my cabbage was wasted.
She could only throw another one down to the other side just as they were about to finish dividing and eating the cabbage.
But this time, those two large wild boars ran together toward the other side; Liu Chuxue could not help but wonder if they were doing it on purpose.
Fortunately, the two small wild boars, her husband and wife, were left in the original spot, so it was not entirely without effect.
She quickly descended from the tree and headed toward where the two small wild boars were gnawing on the cabbage stems; catching them off guard, she sent them into the space on the mountain.
Then, before the two large wild boars noticed her, she quickly returned to the previous tree, took another cabbage from the space, and threw it to the spot where the two small wild boars had vanished.
She thought the two large wild boars would rush to grab the cabbage first, but she did not expect that when the two large wild boars saw no trace of the two small wild boars, they stopped eating the delicious cabbage, grunted while searching around under the tree, and called out occasionally, as if summoning the little wild boars.
After quite a while, just as Liu Chuxue prepared to take advantage of their distraction and kill them separately, the sow suddenly began circling the large tree where Liu Chuxue was located, then looked up and started ramming the tree first.
Had Liu Chuxue not chosen an excellent spot with the tree trunk supporting her back, she would have fallen; she was so frightened she broke out in a cold sweat and muttered, "Damn, I was careless; I didn't expect wild boars to have brains."
Even more deadly, the boar, seeing the sow's actions, joined in.
With two boars ramming the tree together, one can imagine how much the tree must shake.
Liu Chuxue hugged the tree branch tightly, thinking that if the tree could not hold up in a moment, she would hide in the space.
However, just as she prepared to enter the space, perhaps because the sow was too frantic, on the final ram, her body tilted and she fainted on the ground.
This made the boar even more frantic; he rammed the tree with even greater force, and with a misstep, the boar's left tusk directly pierced into the tree trunk.
Seeing this situation, Liu Chuxue did not enter the space; she slid down the tree and struck the struggling boar with a machete. One must admit, the wild boar's skin is truly thick; had her strength not been sufficient, the machete would not have been able to cut in.
The wild boar's howl of pain echoed through Lin Zi, and many birds on trees in the distance were startled into flight.
Liu Chuxue, quick-eyed and quick-handed, delivered another blow; at the last moment, the boar used all his strength and actually broke the tusk that had been inserted into the tree trunk. After staggering a few steps, he fell to the ground, saving Liu Chuxue a great deal of trouble.
Seeing signs of movement from the sow, she could wait no longer; she turned, took a vigorous step forward, and struck directly at the sow's neck. Before the sow could react, she quickly delivered several more machete strikes in succession, and the blood that sprayed out splashed onto her clothes.
Fortunately, she had changed into her old clothes before going up the mountain.
Having obtained what she wanted, she did not stay in the mountain any longer; moreover, with the thick scent of blood here, she dared not remain.
She stored the two wild boars in the space and quickly returned along the original path.
Fortunately, her alertness was strong; not long after she left, a small pack of wolves came running toward this place.
Only when she returned to the mid-slope did she slow her pace, thinking that a little further ahead was the small path leading to Guangming Village; she found a hidden spot, entered the space, and prepared to process the wild boars first.
