008 【Wild Boar】

The sky was later than Qin Xiaoqiu imagined, and the sunlight tended to one side, and the red glow on that side was vaguely visible.

"That's the west, then, the south is over there." Zhushan Village is built in the north and faces south, she is now on the top of the mountain, so Zhushan Village is in the south of her, and there is a reference, and it is really good to distinguish the direction.

With the direction, Qin Xiaoqiu no longer delayed, borrowed the tree branch as a step, and climbed down.

It may be that the soul power of the previous life is gradually awakening in the body of this life, and Qin Xiaoqiu is descending from the tree much faster than expected.

Several times, directly with the jump.

After a while, when I arrived at the main pole of the big tree, there was no branch to step on, so I could only take out the straw rope again, wrap my body around the tree pole, and slowly move down.

The speed slowed down again, which made Qin Xiaoqiu very irritable, she missed her previous life very much, and the speed was her speed, and this kind of turtle-like movement was really suffocating. I can't help but wonder in my heart, what kind of rope is tough and doesn't take up space in these years?

As soon as I was distracted, I suddenly felt that the rope around my waist was loosened, and I didn't have time to react, and my whole body fell quickly.

'Bang', Qin Xiaoqiu just pulled out the dagger, and her ass had already hit the ground.

This fall was not light, the painful Qin Xiaoqiu grinned, grabbed the rope depressedly, and the grass rope broke very completely.

I couldn't help but be afraid for a while, the place where she fell was about less than ten meters from the ground, and if the rope broke thirty or forty meters from the ground, she was afraid that her life would be terrible.

Depressed, he threw away the rope and planned to carry the mushroom on his back and go down the mountain, the time was not early, he had to hurry.

But when she found the bushes where the basket was hidden, she was dumbfounded!

Damn, there are very serious new wounds on the already dilapidated back basket, and only two or three broken pieces of bamboo are left in the cracked gap, weakly maintaining it as a whole, and the mushrooms inside are so miserable that you can't find the whole thing at all.

This was obviously gnawed by some animal, Qin Xiaoqiu frowned, she didn't even notice that something was wrong under the tree?

I'm depressed to death, it's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and I have to be hungry tonight.

As soon as she talked about being hungry, her stomach growled very cooperatively, Qin Xiaoqiu touched her belly, she was so hungry that she didn't feel hungry except for her weak body and weak eyes.

This can't be done, there is still a younger brother at home who is waiting for him, and he can't go hungry anymore.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoqiu frowned, squatted down, and silently picked and chose from the spoiled mushrooms.

In order to find the way before, I have staggered the place where the mushrooms grow, and if I look for the mushrooms again, it will be bad if I get lost again, no way, it's a big deal to take it back and wash it a few more times, cut off all the holes, and boil it in boiling water for a while before eating.

Pick and subtract, there are few good ones, put only a dozen shiitake mushrooms into the back basket, and pull some grass vines, tie up the broken part of the back basket, the heart said, this back basket is already one of the family's very decent properties, I didn't expect to go out of the door, I have to reimburse, really, the year is not good!

Wait, what is this?

Qin Xiaoqiu raised her feet to leave, and suddenly saw a pool of blood in the grass, and her heart chuckled and stopped.

What's going on?

Qin Xiaoqiu suddenly remembered something, put down the back basket, poured out all the contents inside, and rummaged through them carefully.

Sure enough, the machete that had been placed in the back basket before coming was gone.

said that it was a machete, but it was actually a thick and strong iron blade clamped in a piece of wood and fixed, Qin Xiaoqiu took it, there were too few tools, and he used it to fill the number, thinking that he might not use it!

When she was picking mushrooms, she was so happy that she forgot to take out the machete, and when she remembered that the mushrooms were half in the back basket, she didn't deliberately pick them out because she couldn't use the machete.

Now, the mushrooms in the back basket have been eaten up, the machete is gone, and there are blood stains next to it, is it just a coincidence? Qin Xiaoqiu guessed what might happen, and there were some expectations in her heart.

She quickly gathered up her basket and searched the blood.

This time she had a heart and made markers along the way, marking the direction.

About a quarter of an hour later, Qin Xiaoqiu faintly heard a sound, very slightly, but it did, a gentle humming sound.

What is it? Qin Xiaoqiu subconsciously raised her vigilance, followed the sound and searched carefully, and after a few breaths, she found the target, and a dense bush and grass blades trembled slightly with the humming sound.

Qin Xiaoqiu slowly approached, the bushes were in front of her, and through the gaps in the branches and leaves, she saw a small patch of black hair, the fur was coarse and hard like a steel needle.

Could it be, wild boar??!

Qin Xiaoqiu subconsciously took a slap under her feet, the attack power of the wild boar is not low, she is so close, it is easy to be attacked.

No, wait.

The sound seemed to be made by a wild boar, and it sounded painful.

No, it was really when the wild boar gnawed on the mushroom, it gnawed the machete and 'committed suicide', right?

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoqiu's eyes lit up, if this is the case, then she is really as she told her brother before she came, picking up a piece of meat for nothing, not a rabbit, but a wild boar, meat that is more than N times bigger.

Qin Xiaoqiu was speechless, did she have luck? Exchanging a basket of mushrooms for a wild boar is a great deal!

But don't be happy too soon, the injured wild boar will go crazy and kill people.

After thinking about it, Qin Xiaoqiu took a few steps back, picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it into the bushes.

The stone fell in, only to see a 'hula' in the bushes, the blades of grass trembled, and the 'wild boar' suddenly raised half of his body, Qin Xiaoqiu saw clearly, it was really a wild boar.

The wild boar lifted half of its body, snorted heavily, and then shook and fell, snorted weakly a few times, and then made no sound.

Qin Xiaoqiu picked up another stone and threw it in, but there was no response.

Only then did he lean over with confidence, and sure enough, the wild boar was dead.

The danger was lifted, Qin Xiaoqiu pulled the boar's hind legs and pulled the boar out of the bushes.

Finally saw the wild boar clearly, the wild boar was not big, it looked like it was only seventy or eighty pounds.

Seventy or eighty pounds? Qin Xiaoqiu was happy, if she encountered an adult wild boar of two or three hundred or even three or four hundred catties, she would not be able to move it at all with her small body.

Moreover, the meat of adult wild boars is not very tasty, and it is the best for this half size.

Originally, she thought that if the wild boar was too big, she would take off her leg and carry it back to eat, and no matter how much firewood it was, it would be meat to fill her stomach.

If it's just a half-big wild boar, just thinking about the meat quality is reluctant to drop it, it's not big, just carry it all back, such a big body, enough for their sister and brother to eat for a while! If you can't finish eating, you can also exchange it for money, for some household or something, the burden of life is a little lighter all of a sudden, Qin Xiaoqiu is very happy.

Happy to be happy, Qin Xiaoqiu has not forgotten the shape, the bloody gas in the forest may attract predators.

Tigers, lions, any one of them, is not something she can parry.

Thinking of this, he didn't dare to delay any longer, so he quickly tore off a lot of grass and vines, and carefully reinforced the back basket, and then stuffed the wild boar in.

Just stuffing the wild boar into the back basket almost exhausted Qin Xiaoqiu's whole strength, and when it was loaded, she only felt that the two sesame legs were shaking badly, and they were going to fall down at any time, so could they still carry the wild boar down the mountain? Qin Xiaoqiu couldn't help but look at the back basket and worry.

The situation at home has reached the point where the oil has run out, and if it does not improve, I am afraid that she and her brother will starve to death before the winter.

This wild boar is an opportunity and must not be given up.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoqiu gritted her teeth and insisted on carrying the basket containing the wild boar on her back.

Gravity pressed his shoulders, and before he raised his feet, he felt that his eyes were dazzling, his legs and feet were trembling, and as soon as he was sleepy, Qin Xiaoqiu, who was hungry, couldn't slow down a little.

Qin Xiaoqiu shook her head vigorously and gritted her teeth to insist.

She knew very well in her heart that if she really dared to faint like this, she would only end up with the wild boar in the basket, die, and be devoured by the beast that smelled of blood.

Qin Xiaoqiu started vigorously, and as soon as she walked a dozen steps, she felt a feeling of dizziness hit her brain.

She held on to the tree and gasped for breath, and she really couldn't hold it anymore. The forest in front of him seemed to be alive, fluttering and flickering, and Qin Xiaoqiu's eyes were black again.

In a hurry, he bit the tip of his tongue, and the tingling sensation pulled Qin Xiaoqiu's consciousness back.

She knew that it was not possible to go on like this, she had to eat something to replenish her strength, and her eyes quickly searched around, but there were no trees and bushes full of trees, grasses, and shrubs, and there was nothing that could be eaten and quickly restore her strength.

Qin Xiaoqiu misses a little nostalgic for the half bowl of Wowo gray cabbage soup she drank before going out in the morning, at least it can iron her stomach when it is hot.

What to do?

Risking a wild boar on your back? Or leave the wild boar behind and save your life first?

Qin Xiaoqiu frowned, her little hands were clenched into small fists, she decisively chose the former, and risked carrying the wild boar down the mountain, she wanted to gamble, and gambled that she would not meet the beast.

Soon it will be winter, and she must store enough food in the winter, and the warmth of the dilapidated house must be improved as soon as possible, all of which will cost money.

The story of 'waiting for the rabbit' is in front of her, she can't go back to the mountains and pick a wild boar for nothing, no matter how she thinks about this wild boar, she can't give up.

Thinking of the hare that slipped away from hand when he went up the mountain, Qin Xiaoqiu's little shell teeth gritted tighter.

No, you can't give up the boar even if you die.

Qin Xiaoqiu gritted her teeth and continued to walk forward, this time only a few steps, and the whole person collapsed, sweating on her forehead.

Holding on to the tree, he bent over and gasped heavily, and a feeling of powerlessness quickly spread to his limbs, could he really not take it away? Qin Xiaoqiu felt an inexplicable grievance in her heart, which rushed straight into her eyes.

Thinking of her younger brother who was hungry but sensibly said 'not hungry', thinking of the only quilt on the kang that was not as hard as a mat, and thinking of the 'home' that was ventilated on all sides, Qin Xiaoqiu shook her head again, and told herself in her heart that no matter what, she would carry this wild boar back.

This is the vitality of their sister and brother!

Gritting her teeth and persevering, hunger and physical exhaustion, gradually forced Qin Xiaoqiu into a desperate situation, she knew very well in her heart that if she continued, she would really be tired to the point of fainting, or even exhausted, but no, she and her brother's vitality could not wait, she could not admit defeat, she couldn't!

The overload weighed on Qin Xiaoqiu, squeezing the cells in her body until they ruptured, and something was penetrating rapidly through those cracked cracks.

Her body was too weak.

In the previous life, in order to survive, I experienced countless extreme squeezing, but those were all gradual, unlike this time, this body was completely unable to load, and only endurance and persistence would only force the body into a dead end, and if it continued, the body would be crushed and completely collapsed.
