Chapter 8: The Role of Traps
This toss, a long time has passed, the two of them made a few numbers nearby, and then went to other places.
Now there are no traps, and they can only use the hunting forks in their hands.
Time passed minute by minute, and today was lucky, the two of them followed the footprints and found a badger lying in the nest.
This is already a big harvest, this badger is very fat, about more than 20 catties.
"Hey, this time it's not in vain, even if you only hit this badger, it's enough today, and you have to sell it for a dozen dollars." Gao Shun tied the badger with a rope and put it on his shoulder.
"It's really unproductive, and you're satisfied with a badger? There will definitely be something to gain later. Wei Yan said with a smile.
"It's not too early, we have to go down the mountain before it gets dark, or it's too dangerous." Gao Shun said.
"Don't worry, it won't take long," Wei Yan said casually, "Let's go, let's go and see the trap, maybe we have already harvested." ”
The two of them returned the same way they had left.
They came to the location where the first trap was placed.
As they approached, both of them heard some voices that were particularly clear in the silence of the mountain forest.
"I've got something, go check it out." Wei Yan called.
Sure enough, a hare, with brown grass and fur caught its hind legs in the trap, and no matter how much it struggled, it could not break free, and the long bleeding made it dying, and the blood sprinkled on the white snow added a touch of poignancy.
Gao Shun didn't care about this, and happily took the hare out of the trap and tied it with the badger.
"This hare is quite fat." Wei Yanle said hehehe.
"The harvest is good, Wei Yan, let's hurry down the mountain, it may be dangerous when it gets dark." Gao Shun is more cautious and doesn't want to take too many risks.
"Okay, listen to you." Wei Yan said.
"Whew~"
At this moment, Wei Yan and Gao Shun heard a miserable howl in the distance.
They both turned and glanced in the direction from which the voice came, then looked at each other, both of them seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
Without discussion, without hesitation, Wei Yan held the hunting fork in his hand and strode in that direction.
Gao Shun also threw the prey on his shoulder on the ground, picked up the hunting fork and chased after him.
On the snowy hillside, two teenagers ran one after the other, slipped several times and got up again.
The terrible howl was getting closer and closer, and many snowflakes hanging from the branches were shaken down.
They finally saw a stout black boar on a rampage.
But the boar's hind legs were stuck in a trap, which was tied to a tree.
Every time the rope that binds the trap is tightened, the boar feels the pain of tearing the flesh.
It let out a howl of pain and continued to run in a different direction, the pain of tearing flesh making it more and more frantic.
Its eyes were blood-red, and it looked like it was mad, and its two sharp fangs slammed into a small tree next to it.
The arm-thick tree "clicked" and broke off at the waist.
The boar wailed in pain, blood oozing from its mouth, but it didn't stop, spinning wildly in place.
Wei Yan and Gao Shun could clearly hear its heavy snort, just like the furious power of a wild boar, which made people feel frightened.
"What should I do?" Gao Shun asked.
"This wild boar is too strong to fight hard, let's consume its strength first, and then clean it up when it is tired." Wei Yan said.
After the two discussed it, they separated, and each approached the boar from one direction.
Wei Yan took a deep breath, beads of sweat oozed from the palm of his hand holding the hunting fork, he wiped it on his body, and clenched the hunting fork again.
Gao Shun bent over, approaching step by step, and when he was still five or six steps away from the wild boar, the wild boar found him.
It spun around and moved quickly, as if the traps on its hind legs were not much of a hindrance.
"Lulu~"
The boar lowered its head and aimed its flickering fangs at Gao Shun.
Its other, uninjured hind leg kept digging at the snow on the ground, gasping and screaming.
"Whew~"
The wild boar had enough of his anger and frantically pounced on Gao Shun.
"Ah~" Gao Shun faced such a danger for the first time, and his mind was in chaos, but he didn't turn around and run away, but raised his hunting fork and stabbed down on the wild boar.
"Junko, get out of the way!" Wei Yan was shocked.
At this time, it was too late to say anything, Gao Shun couldn't think anymore, he just relied on instinct to fight hard.
Wei Yan wanted to rush over and push Gao Shun away, but it was too late.
At the critical moment, Wei Yan jumped and attacked the wild boar from the other side.
He lunged straight over, trying to get the fork to stretch further.
He lay straight on the snow, one hand stabbing his fork forward.
"Whew~"
The wild boar was suddenly attacked, and the bristles all over the body exploded.
It swooped up, its entire back arched, and it jumped in place several times in succession, and the momentum of the forward rush stopped.
Although the wild boar was stabbed by Wei Yan's hunting fork, Wei Yan only barely touched it, and his strength was insufficient, so its fright was obviously greater than the damage, and it didn't even lose a bit of skin.
Gao Shun took advantage of this moment and had already reacted, and quickly retreated, escaping from the attack range of the wild boar.
"Wei Yan, are you okay?" Gao Shun shouted at Wei Yan as he retreated.
"It's fine." Wei Yan was also relieved to see Gao Shun fleeing.
The wild boar lost its target and quickly locked onto Wei Yan, who was lying on the ground.
It's not that Wei Yan didn't want to get up, but it was that the fall just now was too heavy, and the weather was cold, and his body was a little numb from the fall.
"Get out of the way!" Wei Yan, who was still there with ink, suddenly heard Gao Shun's exclamation.
He looked up and saw that the boar's sharp fangs were already in front of him.
"Your uncle!" Wei Yan closed his eyes.
A moist, warm breath sprayed into his face, and he knew it was the snort of a wild boar.
He didn't feel sick, and he didn't have time to think about what the boar's ugly face would look like on his face.
He was bitter in his heart, and he was determined not to take the old road of being killed by a pit, but he was about to be killed by a wild boar in just a few days.
Death is death, anyway, sooner or later, but it is too embarrassing to be killed by a wild boar.
Wei Yan's mind turned back and forth, and at this moment he thought of many things, including the past life and the present life.
The appearance of Qingqing and his mother also flashed in front of his eyes, and he sighed, "Mother, Qingqing, I can't let you live a good life." ”
"Wei Yan, your grandfather's, what do you mean by the look of enjoyment on your face! Don't get out of the way yet! I can't hold it anymore! ”
Wei Yan waited for a long time, nothing happened, this is strange, and suddenly heard Gao Shun's roar.
He opened his eyes.
The boar's head was two or three inches away from being in close contact with him.
But no matter how the wild boar struggled or how its two sharp fangs swayed, the most it could do was spray its disgusting breath on Wei Yan's face.
As soon as Wei Yan opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a blood-red mouth ticking with fishy saliva.
This made him feel a churn in his stomach, and a stream of liquid flowing up almost uncontrollably.
"Wow~"
Wei Yan finally took revenge.
He spat on the boar in the face.
