Chapter 8: The Wild Boar Descends the Mountain
"The little girl who gathered ears of wheat walked barefoot on the ridge of the field, with wild chrysanthemums on her head and a small bamboo basket on her arm........."
The crisp children's voice drifted to the ears of the Ji family with the breeze, and drifted to the people who cut wheat next to them.
"Nuan Nuan, sing it again, after listening to your song, Fifth Brother feels very motivated."
"Sixth brother, divide a few more grasshoppers for you at night, let's have another section!"
Several brothers teased Ji Nuan together, and Ji Lianqiu put his hand on the pergola and looked at it: "Don't make trouble, there is a car coming towards our house, it looks like an uncle." ”
Before the ox cart reached the ground, Zhu Yinhua, who was sitting on it, asked: "I heard someone singing just now, it's weird and good, is it our family Nuan Nuan singing?" ”
Ji Nuan stuck out his tongue: "Uncle Cousin, Aunt Cousin, I'll sing and play casually." ”
"It's so nice to sing casually, if you sing it seriously, we all listen to it and get fascinated, we don't have the heart to work!" Ji Ruidong took the sickle in Ji Lianxi's hand: "You guys go play!" Ji Lianqiu and Ji Lianfu chased after their cousin.
"We've got to pick up ears of wheat, we can't play!" Ji Nuan shook the small basket in his hand and said.
Zhu Yinhua held a gray cloth in her arms, and opened it to reveal seven or eight burned black potatoes. Ji Lian was quick to do so, took the biggest one, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and handed it to Ji Nuan: "Nuan Nuan, you are tired of singing, the biggest artichoke is for you to eat!" ”
"I'm not hungry for you to eat, I have to chase the person in front, I won't be able to catch up for a while!" Ji Nuan lifted her legs and ran, she didn't work, so leave the potatoes to her brothers to eat!
Ji Lianxi and Ji Lianyou pulled her arm: "If you don't eat it, we won't eat it!" ”
After the wheat was enough for a car, several boys and Ji Ruidong and his wife loaded the car together, and Ji Lianqiu led Ji Lianshou back to unload the car and go to the second grandfather's house to help cut the wheat.
Cut here at home for a while, use a wheelbarrow to transport a few times, and it's time to call it a day today.
Because there are often wild beasts in the crescent ditch, the land they cut today is on the side of the mountain, and the people in the field next to it have gone home early.
Gu Shuzhen wanted to cut for a while, she asked Ji Lianyou to take Ji Nuan home first, Ji Nuan knew that she couldn't do much work if she stayed, and when she went back, she thought about her family in the field, and stood on the ground and hesitated.
Something ran behind him, accompanied by the sound of "smack", the footsteps were very fast, Ji Nuan looked back and almost flew away.
A wild boar more than two meters long, with a pair of fangs on the side of its mouth and black fur, came down from the mountain, and when it saw someone in the field, it slowed down and looked at Ji Nuan vigilantly.
This is an adult wild boar, my mother and brothers are some distance away from here, so I can only find a way to save myself. Ji Nuan searched for countermeasures in her brain, she remembered that the book said that wild boars were afraid of fire and smoke, and the method of attacking the wheat field fire here would not work, so she could only use her voice to intimidate it.
"Sixth brother, can you learn the miserable cry when you kill a pig?"
Ji Lianyou didn't expect that the wild boar would also go down the mountain in broad daylight, how could this pig look more than 200 catties, if it was caught......
Seeing that the sixth brother couldn't count on the outside world, Ji Nuan pinched her throat and screamed, she shouted out in this voice, and Gu Shuzhen and the others turned around together.
"It's a wild boar! Warm Run! Gu Shuzhen shouted in a trembling voice while running to the child, and the brothers couldn't care about cutting wheat anymore, so they ran to their sister together.
The wild boar was startled by Ji Nuan, saw someone running towards him, and rushed to Ji Lianyou in a circle in the wheat field.
"Sixth brother, run!" Ji Nuan took the sixth brother's hand and ran up the mountain, pushed him to a tree and shouted: "Climb up!" ”
"Nuan Nuan, you climb up on the shoulders of the sixth brother!" Ji Lianyou is willing to leave his sister!
"I've got a way to deal with it!" Ji Nuan's method is to see if she can open the space to collect the wild boar in, she is small and flexible, she circles around a tree, puts her two wrists together, and turns her head to see that the wild boar is still chasing her.
It's not okay to give some strength, if you don't open the space, you'll be caught up by wild boars!
At this moment, the wild boar was a little annoyed, chasing the two children, fortunately Ji Lianyou was flexible, and Ji Nuan also knew that if he drilled into the bushes, the wild boar couldn't do anything to them for a while.
"Sixth brother, climb the tree!" Ji Nuan reminded the sixth brother that if she escaped one by one, her hair was shaved, her clothes were scratched, and her cheeks were hot and painful.
The wild boar left Ji Lianyou and followed closely behind Ji Nuan, looking at its appearance, he was not in a hurry to speak, and when Ji Nuan looked at it, the wild boar looked at it with his small eyes.
"Brother Pig, I don't have two taels of meat on me, you catch a rabbit that tastes better than me, let me go!" Ji Nuan folded his hands and asked the wild boar to let him go.
As soon as the wild boar quieted down, a group of people ran into the forest, and it immediately became irritable, Ji Nuan felt that the hair on its body stood up, its back arched, and it was ready to attack.
"Brother Pig, didn't we discuss it just now? You go, I promise that the family will not hurt you. Ji Nuan and the wild boar retreated a little while discussing, and when her back was against a tree, she looked at the gradually enlarged figure of the wild boar in front of her, and the little girl closed her eyes in despair.
With a loud "bang", Ji Nuan felt his body shake several times, and quietly opened one eye to observe the enemy's situation, and when he saw the vision in front of him, his eyes opened wide.
The wild boar actually hit the tree on its own!
Looking at the way it was lying on the ground, Ji Nuan was stunned, the wild boar was dead!
At this time, the others also arrived, Ji Lianlu and Ji Lianxi pounced on the wild boar and pressed it to death, Ji Lianfu found a big stone next to him and held it above his head: "You guys all dodge!" ”
Ji Nuan couldn't stand up anymore, sat on the ground and moved back, Ji Lianlu and Ji Lianxi rolled to the side a few times, Ji Lianfu smashed the stone in his hand hard, and the wild boar "hummed" twice and never moved again.
Gu Shuzhen stumbled to her daughter's side and hugged her in her arms, and shouted with a crying voice: "Nuan Nuan, are you scared, my mother will touch your hair and call your soul!" She was almost scared to death just now, the more anxious she was, the more she didn't obey the call, and she didn't know how she got up the mountain.
"I'm fine, the boar hit the tree and didn't touch me." Ji Nuan said it lightly, only she knew in her heart what she had experienced in just a few minutes.
brushed shoulders with death several times, and the clothes on Ji Nuan's back were soaked.
Ji Lianyou had fast legs and feet, ran down to get the straw rope, Ji Lianlu went to push the wheelbarrow, intending to push the wild boar home, and several children carried the wild boar into the car first, piled some wheat on it and tied it.
"Nuan Nuanniang carries you home, Wulang and Liulang stay to watch the wheat in the field, I will clean up the wild boars at home in a while, and the others will come back to load the car, and I won't cut the land today." Gu Shuzhen said with palpitations, her soul was almost scared, and she didn't have the heart to cut the ground.
