Chapter Seventy-Two: Big Guy
Gao Mingcheng didn't know how powerful Xiao Li's flying knife was, but he knew that after his physical fitness became better, no matter what he did, he could get started quickly.
After he got the sharp knife, he began to practice throwing, first he chose a tree, and then practiced from near to far, left and right, until every time he stabbed the knife, he was able to accurately stab the same place.
After some practice, when he threw the throwing knife, he felt handy, as if the flying knife had become a hand formed by his mind, and he could control the direction and strength as he wanted.
After careful observation, he found that there were five adult pigs in the wild boar herd, three sows and two boars. And Gao Mingcheng decided to get a boar.
After the sow is pregnant and gives birth, the meat quality is not so delicious, the skin is still thick, the more birth, the worse the meat quality, and no one in their village wants to eat the old sows.
The boar targeted by Gao Mingcheng was slightly away from the herd, rummaging in the woods on the edge of the puddle for insects to eat.
Wild boar is an omnivorous animal, the diet is very extensive, it eats whatever is in season, in addition to plants, it will also eat bugs, eggs, young birds, young snakes, voles, etc.
Three, two, one!
Gao Mingcheng counted silently in his heart, then waved his hand, and the sharp knife in his hand quickly stabbed towards the wild boar in a parabola.
There was a faint sound of breaking through the air, and the sharp knife had been pierced into one of the boar's eyes.
The wild boar was frightened and ached, raised its head and howled, and ran away in a panic.
The movement it made frightened the other wild boars, and they instinctively ran away without bothering to see where the danger was coming from.
With a snapping sound, the wild boar herd quickly disappeared into the mountain forest like a tornado.
At the moment when the sharp knife was shot, Gao Mingcheng moved.
He chased after his prey, holding his hands on the branches all the way to avoid being hit on the head by the branches.
The trees in the deep mountains have not been damaged by man, they grow very densely, and in some places, Gao Mingcheng can't get in at all, so he has to take a detour.
The wild boar has disappeared, but Gao Mingcheng can still hear the sound and judge the specific location of the wild boar through the sound.
There was a large vine growing in front of him, blocking his way, Gao Mingcheng pulled out the dagger, and after a few brushes, he cut off the vines, only making it large enough for one person to pass, and he stopped cutting it again.
There was a long trail of blood on the ground, which came out of the boar after it was injured. The faster it runs, the more blood will come out of the wound, and the bayonet pierced in the eye will continue to damage the boar.
But the vitality of the wild boar is really tenacious, and Gao Mingcheng chased it for nearly ten minutes before he saw it.
The reason why I can see it is not that the wild boar is exhausted and can't run, but that it has fallen into the pit!
The pit was formed naturally, but under the growth of vegetation for many years, the surface of the pit was obscured by various vines, branches and leaves, and the naked eye did not know that there was a pit underneath.
The wild boar was also panicked, so he fell into the pit.
Originally, if it hadn't been injured, it would have been able to push hard, but it had lost too much blood and had almost exhausted its physical strength, so it was difficult to escape.
"Whew, that's hard! If only there was a hound. Gao Mingcheng exhaled a breath of turbidity, and he didn't rush forward, and when he was rested, he stepped forward with a dagger.
First cut his throat and bled out, and then pulled out the sharp knife that was stuck in his eye socket.
He also used a little force when he pulled it out, because the knife was already in the bone.
He pulled a handful of weeds to wipe the blood from the sharp knife, and then withdrew it from his waist.
After the boar was cut throat, a lot of blood gushed out, but even so, it was not completely dead, and kept making a slight snorting sound.
Gao Mingcheng stood by the side, until it was completely out of breath and bleeding, and then walked down the pit and tried to carry the wild boar on his shoulder.
Weighing its weight, Gao Mingcheng guessed that this wild boar should be less than two hundred catties, and it was about one hundred and fifty or sixty catties.
That's a big guy!
He carried the boar on his back, and after identifying the direction, he went all the way down the mountain.
When I went down, it was dark.
Although he has good physical strength and runs fast, he is carrying a wild boar of more than 100 catties on his shoulder, and he is really as light as a swallow and can't get up!
However, when it is dark, it also has the advantage of being dark, and when he carries the wild boar down the mountain, he is not seen.
When he returned to Grandma Xi's house, as soon as he entered the door, Gao Zhuang heard movement in the house, so he hurriedly came out to check the situation.
Seeing that it was Gao Mingcheng back, he immediately leaned forward with bright eyes.
"Brother Mingcheng, you really hit a wild boar! Terrible! That's amazing! ”
"Grandma, bring the light bulb to the yard!" Gao Zhuang shouted into the room, and Grandma Xi was also waiting for Gao Mingcheng to come back, so she hurriedly pulled the light bulb wire outside and fixed it with a bamboo pole.
The light bulb here is not fixed in any position, but a thread, and you can fix it in one place, or you can move it to another place when you need to.
This makes it easier to illuminate.
"Ouch, what a wild boar! This pig is not small, at least more than 100 catties! Mingcheng, how do you get it? Do you boil water to shave? ”
Grandma looked at Gao Mingcheng, Gao Mingcheng nodded, and she went to the kitchen to boil water.
But Gao Mingcheng shook his head and said, "Don't shave, this wild boar has thick skin and it's not delicious." I'll just peel it! ”
Gao Mingcheng didn't plan to boil water and pluck the feathers, firstly, because the skin of the wild boar was really not delicious, and secondly, because there was no such tool at home.
People who specialize in killing pigs will have a set of tools for slaughtering pigs.
Sharp knives, bone chopping knives, scrapers, iron hooks, large wooden basins, etc., without these things, it is not easy to slaughter a pig.
"Gao Zhuang, go get that old door panel!" Gao Mingcheng commanded, because he had been preparing to shoot a wild boar for a long time, so he cleaned the old door panel in advance, and now it is easy to use directly.
"Great!" Gao Zhuang was very excited, as if he had hit a wild boar.
Seeing that Gao Mingcheng seemed to want to peel the skin immediately, Grandma Xi finally thought of something, and she hurriedly called Gao Mingcheng: "Mingcheng, don't be in a hurry to do things first, you go to eat quickly, I left you food in a big iron pot, it should still be hot." ”
After such a reminder, Gao Mingcheng also felt hungry.
Anyway, the wild boar is already at home, and he is not in a hurry to clean it up for a while, so it is important to eat first.
So he walked to the kitchen, but was stopped by Gao Zhuang, who smiled and said, "Brother Mingcheng, you give me that dagger, and I'll skin you!" ”
Gao Mingcheng frowned, and glanced up and down at Gao Zhuang with distrust.
Gao Zhuang straightened his back and showed his attitude: "I can definitely do it!" ”
After knowing that Gao Mingcheng got a dagger back from the county town, Gao Zhuang carefully enjoyed it, but Gao Mingcheng was willing to show it to him, but refused to give it to him.
Now it's time to feel the power of the dagger!
