Everyone looked at such a big wild boar, and everyone had a big smile on their face and their hearts were filled with excitement.

In those days, all prey in the mountains belonged to collective property. Whoever caught a big prey had to hand it over to the village, and then the meat would be divided among the whole village.

It’s not that Lin Xi has no way to secretly get rid of the wild boar herself, but if she can use a wild boar to win people’s hearts, she will definitely choose the latter!

So within five minutes, several people had tied up the wild boar with rattan, and two people in a group, a total of four people, carried it away together.

I don’t know whose mouth was so sharp, or maybe it was because of the smell of blood, but before they even walked out of the mountains, Lin Xi always felt that something was approaching them quickly from behind.

Oh no, it’s a pack of wolves!

"Uncle village chief, there is a wolf!" Lin Xi shouted loudly.

Upon hearing the wolf, the village chief made a quick decision, "Everyone, climb the trees!" After saying that, he climbed up the nearest tree.

But danger happened at that moment. The young man who was carrying the wild boar was reluctant to leave the boar on the ground, so he climbed the tree a beat slower and was surrounded by the two wolves that arrived first.

"Da Zhuang!"

The village chief shouted at the top of his lungs, "That was his own nephew! Could he have become food for the wolves?"

Tiezhu, who was standing on the tree closest to the village chief, saw his cousin trapped by the wolf and slid down from the branch without hesitation.

"Tiezhu, be careful."

The village chief naturally saw his son's actions. Although he was reluctant, he could not and would not stop him because he was the one who called Da Zhuang to the mountain, and he had the obligation and responsibility to bring him back.

"Dad, I know." Tiezhu under the tree rushed forward waving the axe in his hand.

The two of them stood back to back, always keeping an eye on the wolf in front of them.

Looking at the two weak humans in front of them, the two wolves pounced on them.

Tiezhu and Dazhuang held hatchets against their chests, and the wolf claws were cut, but the two wolves seemed to feel no pain and pressed forward with all their strength. Just as Tiezhu's neck was about to be bitten through by one of the wolves, a kitchen knife penetrated straight into his neck, and he fell to the ground with a whimper.

With one wolf missing, Tiezhu and Dazhuang worked together to kill the remaining wolf.

"Lin Zhiqing, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would have become food for wolves." Tiezhu touched the back of his head naively, with a suspicious blush on his face.

"You're welcome. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have entered the mountain. If anyone wants to say thank you, it should be me."

Lin Xi couldn't just watch them die in front of her eyes, especially since they came to find her, she couldn't just stand by and watch!

"You two, hurry up and get on the tree. The wolves are coming."

Lin Xi's face darkened. She had already seen more than a dozen wolves not far away.

“But this meat…”

Needless to say, Lin Xi also knew that they were reluctant to part with the meat. It could only be said that people in that era lived a very hard life. They could hardly eat meat once a year. Wouldn’t they be unable to walk after seeing so much meat?

"Listen everyone, we are also young and strong guys, there are about 20 to 30 of us in total, do you want to give it a try?"

The village chief also coveted the meat, thinking that there were no more than a dozen or twenty wolves in the pack, and two people could probably deal with one wolf, not to mention that Lin Xi was there. He had just seen that this girl was very skilled, no wonder she dared to come to this deep mountain alone.

While everyone was looking at each other and still hesitating, Gu Tingxiao had already come to Lin Xi's side.

"Do you guys want to eat meat?"

Hearing the village chief's shocking voice, the people lying on the trees came down one after another.

Lin Xi looked at the wolves getting closer and closer, and secretly collected several of them into the space.

Hmm? Was he dazzled? Why did he feel like there were fewer wolves in the pack?

Did she do something?

Gu Tingxiao secretly looked at Lin Xi, and only put aside his doubts after finding that there was nothing unusual about her, and kept telling himself that he must have seen it wrong.

When the wolves arrived, there were exactly ten left. The villagers would go in groups of two or three to attack the wolves they had set their eyes on.

In less than ten minutes, all ten wolves were hacked to death, and no one was injured.

The leader wolf not far away fled after seeing this. How could Lin Xi let it go? So he took the leader wolf into the space without anyone noticing.

Looking at the wolf carcasses all over the ground, everyone was very happy. Although wolf meat was not as delicious as wild boar meat, it was still meat and enough for them to have a good meal.

This time, there was no need for the village chief to give orders. Everyone cleaned up the battlefield consciously and left as quickly as possible. They didn't want to encounter wolves or other large animals again.

When everyone returned to the foot of the mountain, all the villagers who did not go up the mountain were waiting there with torches.

"Come back, come back."

"Are they carrying wolves?"

I don't know who exclaimed, but the crowd was shocked by this sentence.

"It's really a wolf, and there's a wild boar too. There's meat to eat!" The children ran closer and took a look. Their eyes widened and became even brighter.

"Everyone, go and boil water and kill the pig. We will have the pig-killing meal tonight." The village chief was also very excited. It had been a long time since the village had caught so many preys. They had to celebrate tonight.

When everyone heard that there would be food to eat after slaughtering pigs, they all went to the threshing ground to help.

Some moved tables and chairs, some boiled water, and each family brought some food, including steamed buns and dried vegetables. In short, whoever had something would bring some.

"Lin Zhiqing, you don't need to bring food with you later. Just put the food away and come over to eat."

"You haven't eaten the pig-killing dishes in the village yet! You must try it later, the taste is amazing." The village chief took a delicious puff of his pipe, smacking his lips, as if he had already tasted it.

On the way back just now, he had asked Lin Zhiqing what to do with the wild boar. The answer he got was to hand it over to the village for disposal. He had already thought about how to distribute it.

"Then I'll eat more later." Lin Xi did not refuse. First, she really hadn't eaten it yet, and second, this was an opportunity to get closer to the villagers, and she wouldn't miss it.

Lin Xi carried her things back and put them away, then went into the space to take a shower and change her clothes, and then went out happily.

"Lin Xi, here, here."

Before she reached the middle of the threshing ground, Lin Xi already heard Su Mo calling her.

"Linxi, are you okay?" Su Mo looked left and right, unable to hide the concern in his eyes.

"It's okay, I'm fine."

"That's good. I was really scared to death."

The two of them sat in the corner and chatted.

Lin Xi learned from Su Mo that Gu Tingxiao happened to come to see her after work, but did not see her in the house. Then he learned from a child that she had gone up the mountain.

As it was getting darker, Gu Tingxiao became very worried about her safety, so he hurried to find the village chief and asked people to go into the mountains to look for her.
