Among the Ten Thousand Mountains, Sparrow Mountain is a worthless place.

There are many birds here, so there are birds singing and cranes calling during the day, which is very lively.

In the past, there were very few hunters coming here to hunt, mainly because where there were many birds, there were also many snakes.

It's not worth it to risk your life and work for half a day only to get a little bit of bird meat which is not enough to fill your stomach.

But with the help of Golden Finger, Zhang Yaoyang knew that on the back of the mountain, there was a wild boar den hidden under a rock, and there were three newly born wild boar cubs.

Compared to other places, pigs are the only dangerous prey here. Others like snakes are not a concern, so we still dare to catch snakes.

Compared to being poor, these are nothing.

Chen Ergou was unsure about coming to such a place, so he was naturally a little resistant.

"You bastard, why don't you go somewhere else? This place is nothing but bird shit and spicy noodles. Just wait for the feast!"

Chen Ergou developed in a sneaky manner all the way, holding a hunting rifle and looking around. If you didn't know, you would think that the Japanese were invading the village.

Zhang Yaoyang was amused by his disappointing appearance and couldn't help but ridicule him.

"Er Gou, if your second uncle saw how cowardly you are, he would definitely regret letting you float on the water, tut tut..."

Chen Ergou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly straightened his back.

"What are you talking about? My second uncle has no children, so I am half his son. No matter how cowardly I am, I am still the apple of his eye."

"You're just jealous of me. I might be able to draw a red plum next time."

Zhang Yaoyang shook his head: "If you have no ambition, it's useless to rely on your parents. You will only be looked down upon by others."

"If you have the ability, you can get the money to buy it yourself. That's really awesome."

Chen Ergou was choked to the point of being speechless. He was so angry that he forgot about his fear. He pushed Zhang Yaoyang aside and made his way forward.

The vines and thorns here were dense, and they needed to use sickles to clear the way, so the two of them did not walk very fast.

Zhang Yaoyang picked up branches and knocked them along the way, and managed to pick up twenty or thirty bird eggs, and also picked some pine mushrooms.

Soon, we arrived at a small pond.

This place is only as big as a winnowing basket, and water is gurgling out from an underground spring. The water is clear and very sweet.

The two of them selected a few larger leaves and rolled them up to make a small funnel, which was very convenient for scooping water to drink.

He drank a few sips of water, ate two fried dough cakes, and after a short rest, he chose a place where there were more traces of wild animal activities and set up the trap.

It's hard to find rabbits and pheasants here. Could this trap be used to catch poisonous snakes?

Chen Ergou was nervous and wanted to stop working, but he was afraid of discouraging his good brother's enthusiasm.

Zhang Yaoyang didn't have time to pay attention to him. He took out the net and lasso and set a few complicated-looking traps nearby.

Chen Ergou was stunned and admired Zhang Yaoyang's craftsmanship.

"I never thought that a nerd like you could do such a great job hunting. It's not easy, it's really not easy."

Naturally, Zhang Yaoyang couldn't tell him that he had been forced by Zhao Xiaocui in his previous life and had already developed a lot of skills.

With the help of the golden finger, he dared to dig for gold in the mountains.

After finishing all these, I was planning to go somewhere else to try my luck when I suddenly saw something shaking in the bushes, as if a big creature was running towards here.

Chen Ergou was so scared that he screamed, "Oh no! Run!"

"Run for your life! We are here to hunt. It would be a good thing to have prey."

"Oh yeah... I forgot about that, hehe..."

Zhang Yaoyang snatched the shotgun from his hand, then found a hidden place and aimed.

Chen Ergou was not idle either. He clumsily took out his bow and arrow and prepared to shoot.

The two had just gotten ready when they heard a woman's cry for help from afar.

"Help~Help~~Someone come and save me~~~"

Zhang Yaoyang stood up in a flash.

"Huh? It looks like a woman. She's in trouble."

Chen Ergou said in some doubt: "This voice sounds familiar, I seem to have heard it somewhere before."

At this moment, I was criticizing my mother in my heart and didn't have time to think about it carefully.

"Don't worry about it for now, Yaoyang, find a way to save them!"

Zhang Yaoyang climbed up a nearby branch, looked down for a while, and shouted to Chen Ergou, "Oh no! It's a fat and strong wild boar chasing a woman."

"What bad luck! That woman actually fell down at the critical moment..."

Zhang Yaoyang was muttering to himself, but his hands did not stop moving. He immediately pulled the bolt and loaded the bullet, then raised the barrel without hesitation.

He estimated the distance and found it was within 40 meters. When the wild boar was about to pounce on the woman, he fired decisively.

Keep pulling the bolt, loading the gunpowder and bullets, and firing...

Chen Ergou's head was buzzing with shock. Zhang Yaoyang had already fired three shots in a row and jumped down from the tree decisively.

"What are you still standing there for? Go! Save them!"

"Ah? Let's go, let's go..."

Chen Ergou calmed himself, clenched the axe in his hand, and tried hard to keep up.

The two men didn't care about the branches scratching their clothes and ran all the way to the scene of the incident.

The woman was lying there motionless, as if dead.

Beside his legs, a bloody wild boar was lying, still twitching and struggling, and it seemed that it was not far from death.

After Zhang Yaoyang turned the woman over, Chen Ergou suddenly screamed.

"Oh my god, isn't this my sister Xinghua? Why are you here?"

"Your sister-in-law? Did you recognize the wrong person?"

The other person's face was covered in blood, but Chen Ergou was able to recognize him. It was simply...

"It's definitely my sister-in-law Xinghua. There is no woman prettier than her in the entire Zhaojia Village."

"No wonder you don't know her. My cousin was planning to invite you to the wedding banquet, but you had to take exams at school, so you never saw her."

"You don't know, my sister-in-law has a younger sister named Lihua, who is two years younger than me and is also very pretty, ahem..."

Speaking of this, Chen Ergou rarely showed a shy expression.

"Tsk tsk...you're thinking about women!"

Zhang Yaoyang quickly recalled what happened in his previous life. Chen Ergou and this woman named Lihua had no fate. The reason was that the other party took advantage of his daughter's beauty and asked for a high betrothal gift of 5,000 yuan.

With this price, an ordinary family could marry two wives. However, Chen Ergou's family did not have that much money, so in the end he had to give up with regret and watch Lihua marry to another village.

Later I heard that the baby had a difficult delivery, and the man's family was reluctant to spend money to send the baby to the county hospital, so the birth was delayed, resulting in two deaths.

Now that we understand the reason, we naturally cannot let Chen Ergou regret it for the rest of his life.

"Let's not talk about whether she's pretty or not. She's unconscious and in danger. The two of us should do our best to save her first."

"Then...then this wild boar..."

"Don't worry, no one dares to come here. Those who belong to us can't escape."

Moreover, such a big thing weighs at least 300 kilograms. It would be difficult for the two of them to carry it down the mountain. They would need more people to do it.
