Chapter 15: Killing the Pigs

The years are clear, and it is another autumn.

The continuous torture is not much but more severe.

The skin was opened, the muscles and bones were broken, the internal organs were beaten inch by inch, and he stood up and entered the door, and was brought out again. After soaking in potions, he is a lively little man again.

In less than two years, the two little babies jumped a head and a half, and while their strength increased, they were not full of food.

Chen Jing's perception of his own strength was more obvious, swinging his sword and slashing horizontally, the stone shook slightly, and before it could stand still, there was another vertical split, and the swing was even greater.

After so long, the stone pillar was full of potholes and scars, and it had become thin in the middle and thick at both ends.

Meng Hao found a palace girder a few days ago, which was more than twice as thick as the one thrown away, and it was only lower than the laurel tree in the courtyard when erected.

Meng Wei inserted chopsticks into the soil effortlessly, leaving only three points left on the ground, so that Chen Jing could cut this one in the future.

Chen Jing's face trembled, thinking to himself how hard it would be to insert himself into the ground effortlessly, and he must not let himself dig in the future.

The increase in the amount of food made Dong Chuanhai, who was a cook, complain, that it was only the autumn harvest, and that the old grain was eaten last year, how could this be done.

Today's dinner is those things again, and it doesn't matter if it's enough, Cui Ying licked the rice bowl and plates, and lost her temper at Dong Chuanhai, who has been a cook, and said that the two of us will be sandbags for you to practice, why don't you eat or be full.

Dong Chuanhai was not polite to her, slapped the back of the head, and asked her to eat in the thatched house, and the amount was enough.

I was going to beg the master, but the master couldn't help with his hands, but he reminded them that they could find food by themselves.

This reminded Cui Ying of the roast suckling pig she had eaten for the first time, swallowed her saliva and asked, "Master, where can I catch a wild boar?" It's the first time we ate it. ”

Looking at the greedy eyes of the two little gluttons, Mu Hongfeng said helplessly: "It is difficult to find it close to the boundary of Zhao'an City. You have to follow the direction of the canal, go further south to Chengnan Village, and go to the place where there is a pine forest, and you will find the group of spotted pigs. If you really want to go, be careful on the road, there are still wild beasts in the nearby mountains and forests. ”

Chen Jing thought for a while and said, "Forget it, it's hard to roast the pig, it's not worth it." ”

Dong Chuanhai took over the conversation and said: "If you two really catch a spotted pig, you don't have to worry about the rest of the matter, I'll just roast it, and the taste is guaranteed to be better than last time." Let's go tomorrow after taking a medicinal bath, and if it goes well, you can go back and forth in half an hour. ”

Meng Hao encouraged on the side: "There is also a tiger head fish, that is the fish tart, do you want to catch it together?" ”

The two children shook their heads together.

Chen Jing drooped his face, "The two of us can only float in the water and can't swim in the water, we can't catch it, we don't have the leisure time to fish, we really have time and no patience, so forget it." ”

Meng Hao lamented that it was difficult to find unpaid labor.

Chen Jing and Cui Ying were a little excited, and before the potion was completely cold, they jumped out and changed into new clothes, and told the master that they would definitely come back in half an hour, and ran south in a hurry.

Looking at the wasted potion in the bucket, Mu Hongfeng scolded the two rabbit cubs for not knowing what to do, and they were just rice buckets.

After a year of soaking in potions, the two villains have become much stronger in their feet, jumping off the road like two little beasts, picking wild flowers and weeds, chasing some sparrows that have fallen in the field, innocent and carefree.

On the way, acquaintances greeted each other, the two didn't dare to say that they caught wild boars, Chen Jing also covered up the iron sword, and only said that he was going to find some pine nuts to eat, but the acquaintances didn't care, just thought it was a child's greed.

After playing all the way, I walked three miles and saw the pine woodland, which was already considered a non-grazing land, and only a few evacuated families were scattered at the foot of the mountain.

There were no high mountains nearby, only low hills, and the two soon climbed to the top of the hill and looked around for a herd of wild boars.

Chen Jing and Cui Ying's eyesight was not bad, and they couldn't find any traces of wild boars, so they climbed to a waist-thick pine tree, and lay down in the crook of the big tree and waited.

When he came out this time, Chen Jing brought out the blunt sword, just because he was afraid that if he met what the master said, no matter if he could help himself or not, he would always feel at ease if he had something in his hand, and he wanted to find a hammer for Cui Niu, but she refused, and said nonchalantly: "Isn't it just a wild boar, even it can't be dealt with, what face will you have in the future." ”

Chen Jing is completely convinced, and if he doesn't say a few big words every day, he is not Cui Niu.

Lying on the trunk of the tree, the breeze was so uncomfortable, Chen Jing said to Cui Ying, who was knocking on the pine nuts, to take a nap, and wake himself up if there was any situation, and handed her the sword after speaking, Cui Niu ignored it.

Chen Jing didn't care, and the iron sword was withdrawn and took a nap.

Cui Ying gradually lost interest in the pine nuts in front of her, climbed the high branch and looked into the distance, and heard some beast chirps with her ears up, some of which could be distinguished, and more of which were unknown. Seeing the sweetness of Xiaojing's sleep, I felt that it should be okay for me to squint for a while.

Meng Hao in the distance is squatting on a tree, the two villains are really a headache, why are the people who are in a hurry to find wild boars sleeping?

If you two are old hunters, it's fine, but you two are clearly fledglings, when will this wait, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? When it's time to come, the two of you are almost hungry, so it's better to catch fish in the ditch honestly and eat.

Hearing something in a daze, Chen Jing rubbed his eyes and woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he was stunned for a moment before he reacted, he was going to catch a wild boar today, he remembered to let Cui Niu call his own, now the sun has set, only Hui.

At this moment, Cui Ying was also sleeping with the trunk of the tree in her arms, and the saliva from her mouth was already dripping, and she went up to wake her up, and was about to scold her, when some sounds came from the hillside below.

"Hum", "purring", only pigs can make unique sounds, there are naturally no domestic pigs here, only wild boars.

Push Cui Ying awake, put up a finger to let him not make a sound, through the light of the afterglow, the shadow is enough to see the shadows of some wild boars downhill, the appearance of more than a dozen heads, look up at the upcoming night sky, I can't see the moon tonight, I have to do it as soon as possible, if it is later, it will be even more difficult to catch wild boars.

"Let's eat so much, let's catch the biggest one."

"How is it possible, you see that they are small now, and when you get closer, you will know that they are not small, the biggest one may be bigger than you and me combined, and we can't catch it."

"Then which do you say we should catch, and how do we catch it?"

The sky was getting darker and darker, and Chen Jing said intuitively: "Catch the smaller ones, the ones that are smaller than all of us, and the one at the back is about the same, I'm afraid that the big one will delay the time."

I'll go around to the back later, and you sneak over from the front, and the two of us will slowly gather around and drive the little one out of the herd, and the rest will run away, just deal with the little one. ”

Cui Ying nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said happily: "That's okay, in the end, I personally took action to subdue it, and my fist skills have made great progress, and now I will confirm it on this pig." ”

After speaking, he immediately felt weak, pushed Xiaojing's shoulder and said, "Should you help or help." ”

Don't talk nonsense with her, Chen Jing jumped off the pine tree and went in circles.

Cui Ying stepped on a few jumps and got off the tree, took broken steps, and quietly walked towards the wild boar herd.

Finally approached the herd of wild boars, and after waiting for a while, Cui Ying tentatively stretched out her head to look at the opposite side, but did not see Xiaojing's figure.

Just as she was about to do it herself, Chen Jing's head appeared on a tree opposite and looked at her, and then pointed to the wild boar under the tree.

Cui Ying nodded, staring at the wild boar under the tree through the weeds.

Chen Jingshun took a breath, jumped down in a vertical leap, shouted without grandeur, almost silent, and directly pressed on the wild boar.

The wild boars were frightened and fled in all directions, roaring one after another.

Chen Jing planned to pick up the wild boar by the waist, but he underestimated the wild boar's brute strength, and he was about to break free from bouncing back and forth, grabbed the wild boar's hind legs, and lay on the wild boar himself to prevent it from running, but he still couldn't deal with it, so he hurriedly shouted: "Cui Niu, come over quickly, I'm about to get rid of it here!" ”

Cui Ying in the distance immediately ran over, "I was going to catch another one just now, but I couldn't outrun them." Since there is only one head left, see me subdue it. ”

Before Chen Jing could do anything, the wild boar under him finally broke free from his hands.

The wild boar rushed and directly knocked Cui Ying, who was not ready, into his arms.

After being hit, Cui Ying hugged the pig's head and didn't let go, the wild boar couldn't see the road, and kept rushing in and hitting a tree with someone.

Chen Jing ran over and pulled up the two pigs' hind legs, he didn't dare to throw the wild boar out hard, in case he ran away, he would be busy in vain, just let the wild boar not hit Cui Niu.

Unfortunately, when I climbed up the tree to pounce on the wild boar, I remembered that the iron sword had forgotten to the pine tree, and now I can only think of other ways.

For being hit twice, he didn't feel any danger, at least compared to Grandpa Dong's fist, maybe the wild boar king only had it.

Seeing a stone next to him, he hurriedly shouted: "Cui Niu, hit him with a stone." ”

The girl held the pig's head, lifted the boar's front legs off the ground, and asked with difficulty, "Don't you catch it alive?" ”

Chen Jing was a little annoyed, "We didn't bring a rope with us when we came, so we had to wait until it ran out of strength or knocked it unconscious before we could catch it back." ”

"Oh so, don't let go, I'll smash it." After saying that, he went to grab the stone with one free hand.

The wild boar seemed to feel the restraint loose, and the survival instinct made the slightly stable body move violently, arching Cui Ying with its mouth, and the fangs also greeted her unceremoniously.

After being scraped a few times by the fangs of the wild boar, Cui Ying, who was in pain, let go of his hands, Chen Jing almost didn't think about it, lifted the wild boar with both hands, picked it up in a semicircle, and threw the wild boar on the tree.

"Cui Niu, smash it quickly!"

"Here, bastard, I'm going to eat you today!" Pick up a big stone, smash it on the boar's nose like revenge, find two small ones with both hands, and smash them on the boar's head one after another.

"I let you run, let you run, I spent so much effort to catch you, did you run away?"

Meng Hao in the distance, his every move was vivid, and he was very disappointed by their actions, if he hadn't driven the group of wild boars away, and then deliberately played a pine nut to wake them up, maybe they would still be sleeping on a tree at this time.

As for the method of catching the wild boar, he was noncommittal, after all, letting himself catch it and letting them catch it must be different, and there is no way to compare, but at present, they have the strength, but they don't have that awareness, and they still act as before, "Alas, they deserve to be punished, Lao Dong will beat them for a few more years." ”

As Cui Ying's hands rose and fell, one after another, the wild boar finally stopped moving.

Chen Jing asked her to stop, the wild boar's face door had been smashed, and a deep pit had been smashed out of its front legs, half of its head had gone in, and its mouth had spit blood and stained the mud red.

The two gasped and sat back to back, and Chen Jing asked, "Are you okay just now?" Wild boar fangs are very powerful. ”

Cui Ying looked at the few blood marks on his arm and said, "It's okay, it's just an itch compared to Grandpa Dong." ”

Chen Jing was also relieved when he heard her say this, got up and said, "Hurry up and go, it's already night, there are not many families around here, if there are any nocturnal beasts, the two of us will be the same as that dead pig." We're going to drag it back on one leg at a time. ”

While dragging on the road, Cui Ying suddenly said: "We killed a wild boar, I mean, this is the first time I ...... The first killing. ”

Chen Jing paused and said angrily: "Me too, I thought it was just ...... It's good to just catch it, and if we don't want to kill it, at least not with our own hands. ”

Chen Jing puffed out his cheeks, sighed, and tried to persuade: "If you feel embarrassed, just think about how fragrant and delicious its meat is, since it is dead, it can't be wasted, right?" Just like food, it is a blessing for us to eat it in our stomachs. ”

Cui Ying nodded again and again when she heard his crooked reasoning, and her mood instantly improved.

Meng Hao, who came back first, had already sat down in the courtyard with two other old friends, Meng Hao sold a pass, and didn't say anything about the two children, anyway, in the realm of Zhao'an City, even if the two little babies broke into a big thing, it was just to bother the elders to raise their butts and get up, and move their fingers.

"Master, we're back!"

"Grandpa Dong, we have brought the wild boar back."

Meng Hao still wants to wait for the follow-up, and then it's gone? was so angry that he scolded the two little cubs for having no conscience, and he became a free supervisor, and in the end he didn't even say a greeting.

Mu Hongfeng shouted for the two villains, "They don't know that you are staring from a distance, you are purely making things difficult for others." ”

Two children dragged the dead wild boar into the courtyard, one hurried to pour tea and drink, and the other pulled Dong Chuanhai over, urging him to start roasting it quickly.

Dong Chuanhai looked at the wild boar, smiled and asked Chen Jing, "Have you seen the difference between this wild boar and your master's original two?" ”

Chen Jing frowned, didn't understand why he asked, shook his head and said, "I don't understand, aren't they all pigs?" ”

"Aren't you too big?"

"Hmm."

"Why didn't your master pick up the big one in the first place?"

"I don't know."

"Because your master picked a suckling pig that is less than half a year old."

Without waiting for the boy to ask, Dong Chuanhai continued to answer: "The suckling pig does not have the strong fishy smell of the older wild boar, and the meat quality is not so woody, so it is suitable for all kinds of cooking. ”

"Ahh How so? It took us a lot of effort to get it back, so we can't eat it? ”

Hearing Dong Chuanhai's words, Cui Ying shouted loudly.

"These few places, you cut them down, they are considered to be the most tender meat on the wild boar, as for the rest, forget it, it is firewood and old, and it tastes like chewing wax."

"We cut?!" Both children exclaimed at the same time.

"Or else? Of course, you cut the wild boar you caught, and if it weren't for your two poor cooking skills, you would have to do the food yourself.

Okay, grab a kitchen knife, drag the boar to the river and do it again, cut it and throw the rest into the river. Let's hurry up, we haven't started dinner so late, so I'm waiting for the two of you. ”

At dinner, Chen Jing and Cui Ying were still alive, and no amount of food seemed to fill their stomachs, but occasionally remembered what happened by the river just now, retched a time or two, and continued to gobble up.
