Chapter 40 Stand Up
After entering Xima Village, Wu Hu directly revealed his identity.
When the villagers learned that he was sent by the Li Mansion, they immediately took him to the village chief's house.
Most of the people in Xima Village are surnamed Ma, and the village chief's name is Ma Dabao, and when he learned that the Li Mansion had sent someone again, he hurriedly brought his son out to greet him.
But when he saw that Wu Hu was not very old, he was immediately a little disappointed.
He originally thought that the Li Mansion would send a powerful person over after losing two people in succession, but he only sent a young man over, and he was naturally very disappointed in his heart.
It's just that Ma Dabao didn't dare to show it on his face, so he could only invite Wu Hu to his home.
"Longevity, go make a pot of good tea!" After accompanying Wu Hu into the house, Ma Dabao immediately instructed his son.
"Okay, Dad!" Ma Changshou nodded and retreated.
After Wu Hu sat down, he asked directly, "I heard that you have a wild boar overflow here?" ”
"Yes." Ma Dabao nodded, and said worriedly: "If it is an ordinary wild boar, I can also deal with it if I organize the strong men in the village to go into the mountains." After all, my Xima Village is next to the mountains, and I will go into the mountains to hunt from time to time, and there are many excellent hunters in the village. My son was one of them, and he once went into the mountains to follow the trail of wild boars. ”
Speaking of his son, Ma Dabao's face rarely showed joy, thinking that his son Ma had a long life was his pride.
"It's just that there is a wild boar that seems to have become a sperm, very powerful, we can't deal with it at all, and we have lost a few people one after another. I was really forced to have no choice, so I asked the Li family for help. ”
Ma Dabao's face was helpless, if it weren't for the fact that this wild boar was really difficult to deal with, how would he dare to disturb the Li family.
However, almost all the fields in Xima Village belong to the Li family, and Ma Dabao and they dare not sit idly by. Otherwise, if there is no harvest, the Li family will blame them, and they can't afford it.
"Tea is coming!" Ma Changshou brought the tea.
Wu Hu took a sip and asked at Ma Changshou, "Have you ever hunted wild boars in the mountains?" ”
"Hmm!" Ma Changshou nodded, as the best hunter in the village, he naturally hunted wild boars.
"Okay, then you and I will go into the mountains and help me lead the way and track down the wild boars." Wu Hu said that he didn't know the situation in the mountains, and he didn't know the habits of wild boars, so he was afraid that it would not be so easy to find the wild boar that was about to become a demon beast.
Without waiting for Ma Changshou to speak, Ma Dabao hurriedly said: "The matter of going into the mountains to catch wild boars has to be considered in the long run." ”
Ma Dabao was really anxious, and the people sent by the Li Mansion before were all killed by wild boar essence in the mountains. He didn't believe that a young man like Wu Hu had the ability to clean up the boar essence, he didn't care about Wu Hu's life or death, but his son followed, so was there still a way to live?
But Ma Dabao didn't dare to stop Wu Hu from hunting wild boars, so he had to persuade him: "This wild boar essence is terrible, the people sent by the Li Mansion before were all folded in the mountains, so it's better to be careful." ”
Ma Dabao is right, be careful. It's just that he underestimated Wu Hu too much, and now Wu Hu has completed five transformations of his muscles and bones, and his strength is so strong that ordinary middle-level martial artists in the Forging Body Realm are inferior.
Wu Hu knew that there was danger in it, but he didn't want to drag it out. Because this wild boar is likely to transform into a demon beast, it will change later, and it must be solved as soon as possible.
"No, go up the mountain as soon as possible to solve this matter!" Wu Hu said categorically.
Ma Dabao wanted to give himself two big mouths at this time, and he had to brag about what his son was doing just now. Now that I'm directly pulled as a helper, is there still a chance to live?
But Wu Hu was sent by the Li family, even if Ma Dabao was unhappy in his heart, he didn't dare to object.
"Do you dare to follow me up the mountain?" Wu Hu asked at Ma Changshou.
"Dare!" Ma Changshou was much bolder, he said: "If we can't get rid of the wild boar essence, the crops in the field will suffer, and the villagers will not have a harvest." If you can't pay the rent, everyone will starve to death. ”
"Haha, courage is commendable!" Wu Hu smiled and nodded, adding a touch of good impression to Ma Changshou.
Later, Wu Hu discussed with Ma Changshou when to enter the mountain, after all, Ma Changshou was more experienced in this regard.
"Wild boars are mostly active at night, and we will go up the mountain tomorrow during the day."
Ma Changshou said that during the day, wild boars are resting most of the time, and it is safer to do it at this time. As for traps or something, they don't work anymore for boar essence.
"Okay, rest for the night, and leave tomorrow." Wu Hu nodded.
Ma Dabao was naturally warmly welcomed, and after Wu Hu rested, Ma Dabao took his son and ran outside the house to whisper.
"Longevity, this doll is still young, I don't know the depth at all, there will be big problems if you follow it." Ma Dabao was worried, worried that his son would never return.
In fact, Ma Changshou is not optimistic about Wu Hu's strength, but the village is flooded with wild boars, and hunting wild boars has reached the point where it cannot be delayed.
If you don't take the initiative, you won't be able to live your life in the future.
"Dad, you are the village chief, I am your son, and I must go to this matter." Ma Changshou said with a firm look in his eyes, everyone knows that the wild boar essence is very powerful. But as the best hunter in the village, and the son of the village chief, he doesn't go to anyone.
At this time, Ma Dabao was both relieved and scared, but when he saw his son's firm eyes, he had no choice but to stop talking.
Early the next morning, the villagers learned that Ma Changshou and Wu Hu were going into the mountains to hunt wild boar essence, and they all came to help.
They prepared the best bows and arrows and weapons for Ma Changshou, and at the same time selected a few men to prepare to go with them, but they were stopped by Wu Hu.
No matter how much ordinary people go, it is useless, and it is enough to have one to help him pursue the boar essence.
"More people, better!" Ma Dabao persuaded that in his opinion, one more person would have more strength, and the possibility of killing the wild boar essence would be greater, and the possibility of his son surviving would be higher.
"No, you don't!" Wu Hu directly refused, and walked towards the mountain with Ma Changshou.
Looking at the back of Ma Changshou, Ma Dabao's heart was very uncomfortable.
"Village chief, is there any hope?" Some villagers came up and asked, and everyone else looked at Ma Dabao with expectation.
"Alas!" Ma Dabao sighed and said with some discouragement: "This person is not very old, do you think he is stronger than the previous two?" ”
The villagers knew what the village chief meant, and the hope in their eyes was instantly shattered, and it was indeed difficult for a young man who had not grown all his hair to have any great ability.
Hunting wild boar essence?
That's a wild boar spirit, and he has already killed the two warriors sent by the Li Mansion one after another.
Everyone's hearts were saddened that the crops in the village had been badly damaged. If you can't get rid of the wild boar, you won't be able to keep the harvest. If you can't pay rent to the Li family on time and in quantity, the whole village will be finished.
When the villagers of Xima Village were worried, Wu Hu and Ma Changshou had already reached the mountain.
With his experience, Ma Changshou began to look for traces of wild boar essence.
