Chapter 2 Hunting the Black Nigou

As the saying goes, you rely on the mountains to eat the mountains. For rural people living in the mountains, they can understand the truth of this sentence better. However, for most mountain people, they often yearn to stay away from the mountains and go to the more prosperous and noisy big cities.

City.

People in the mountains want to leave, mostly because of poverty and backwardness. Even if they are adjacent to the mountains, how many people can really find wealth from the mountains? Whether they are hunting or gathering medicine, they are not that kind of people.

Everybody can do the job.

In the past few years of living in seclusion in the mountains, Xu Zhengdao has only had a handful of contacts with outsiders. Hunters and herb collectors from nearby mountains rarely come to Yunwu Mountain. Even though they know that there are more prey and medicinal materials in the mountains.

The problem is that the number of large prey and rare medicinal materials has dropped sharply due to the presence of hunters and herb collectors in the nearby mountains all year round. On the other hand, there are many wild beasts in the Yunwu Mountain, but the probability of encountering a ferocious beast is still very high.

For most hunters, if they encounter fierce beasts such as wolves, bears, tigers and leopards in the deep mountains, and the two sides confront each other, experienced hunters would not dare to boast that they will escape unscathed. If there is an accident, their bones may be buried.

Deep mountains.

Heinigou is a ravine not far from Yunwu Mountain. It is named because of the many mire pools in the ravine. Anyone who has been here occasionally knows that Heinigou is infested with snakes and insects and has many insects and ants. It is not a good place. It is best to

Keep a respectful distance.

But it was such a place that others didn't want to come to. Xu Zhengdao, who had breakfast early in the morning, went straight to Heinigou. He found a place with a leeward side facing the sun, and then stayed there and waited quietly.

So what on earth is he waiting for?

In the eyes of ordinary people, Heinigou needs to be kept at a distance, but it is the favorite place for wild boars in the nearby mountains. For wild boars, they wander around the jungle every day in search of food, but they also like to take a 'mud bath' here in Heinigou

bath.

Thinking of going to the city in two days, Xu Zhengdao would rather hunt a few wild boars for sale than sell the collected medicinal materials. Even in the eyes of many city people, wild boar seems not as delicious as domestic pork, but wild boar is not as delicious as domestic pork.

Pork is also pork!

Although he smoked a lot of bacon, Xu Zhengdao liked to sell fresh wild boar every time he went to the city. He really couldn't bear to sell those smoked and dried bacon. In winter, steamed rice with bacon is also an essential part of his menu.

So delicious!

When the sun was scorching across the sky, Xu Zhengdao heard wild boars emerging from the forest from time to time, rushing into the mud pools of different sizes, and began to enjoy themselves in the mud pools and even took a mud bath, but he did not notice at all.

The 'killer' lurking in the shadows.

While the wild boars were enjoying the joy brought by the mud bath, Xu Zhengdao, who was hiding in the dark, also began to search for hunting targets. The wild boars that were too far away from him were naturally not within the hunting range, because his hunting tools were only suitable for close combat.

For many hunters who are good at hunting, they all know the principle of "one pig, two bears, three tigers". The reason for this saying is mainly due to the risk of hunting wild boars, which is sometimes greater than hunting tigers and bears.

But for Xu Zhengdao at this moment, looking at the group of wild boars less than a hundred meters away, he quickly targeted the two most powerful wild boars among them. Since he wanted to hunt pigs for money, he must kill the ones that were heavy enough.

.

Although the meat of a wild boar weighing more than 100 kilograms may taste better than that of a wild boar weighing 200 to 300 kilograms, the meat yield of a larger wild boar will undoubtedly be more. The important thing is that city people buy meat, who cares if the meat comes from large farms

Is it cut from a pig or a piglet?

After confirming the hunting target, Xu Zhengdao stood up and took out a sharp steel spear. Holding it in his hand, he quietly approached the group of wild boars not far away. When the wild boars in the quagmire felt threatened, Xu Zhengdao was already Stand up and speed up.

Faced with the sudden appearance of Xu Zhengdao, the wild boar group in the quagmire instantly exploded. Just as the leading wild boar was about to speed up to escape from the quagmire, Xu Zhengdao suddenly stopped, stretched his body into a bow shape, and then threw the short spear in his hand with force go out.

The short spear, about one meter long, instantly resembled a giant crossbow arrow, flying towards the wild boar that was accelerating to escape the quagmire. When the sharp spear point fell, the fat wild boar, which was originally known for its defensive power, was instantly pierced by the short spear. body.

The scream of "Ouch" sounded, and the powerful and running wild boar quickly rolled several times in the mud with blood flowing. However, Xu Zhengdao did not pay attention to its life and death at all, but quickly threw a second shot. Short spear.

Another fat wild boar that was fleeing in a hurry, even though it ran faster than other wild boars, still couldn't escape the sharp short spear that threatened its life. After making the same scream, it soon fell down in the mire like the previous wild boar. .

The other wild boars that were taking a mud bath in the mud were naturally frightened when they heard the howls of these two wild boars. They got up from the mud and ran quickly towards the jungle next to them. Xu Zhengdao ignored their escape. .

He walked towards the two wild boars that were not dead but were dying. Even before they died, the two wild boars still showed enough ferocity. But their ferocity seemed to Xu Zhengdao to be just a dying struggle.

When the wild boar that was the first to be killed with a spear had stopped breathing, Xu Zhengdao immediately reached out and pulled out the short spear that had pierced the body of the wild boar. Looking at the short spear stained with pig blood, Xu Zhengdao said with slight satisfaction: "Kung fu is not in vain, this spear throwing skill It’s getting more accurate!”

Compared with hunters in the surrounding mountains, most of whom are good at using hunting dogs and shotguns, Xu Zhengdao, who lives in seclusion in the mountains, prefers to use cold weapons. And his best hunting tool, besides short spears, is bows and arrows.

Instead of hunting small prey such as pheasants and hares, he prefers to use bows and arrows. When hunting wild boars with rough skin and thick flesh and strong defenses, the lethality of bows and arrows is extremely limited. Instead, sharp steel short spears make it easier for wild boars to break through their defenses and kill them. Severe damage in an instant.

In order to prevent mud from pouring into the wild boar's body from the wound, Xu Zhengdao, who pulled out his short spear, waved his hand and said softly: "Put it away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the dead wild boar, which weighed about three hundred kilograms, quickly disappeared from the quagmire. Following the same pattern, Xu Zhengdao quickly collected another hunted wild boar into his storage ring.

Speaking of this storage ring, it really wasn't given by the sign-in system. This ring was actually a token of his former mentor's sect. What surprised Xu Zhengdao was that the mentor didn't know that this token of his sect was actually A storage ring.

To be precise, although the mentor who adopted Xu Zhengdao was a Taoist with superb medical skills, he was not a true practitioner. Perhaps because of this, he never discovered that the sect's token passed down was actually a legendary space ring in the Taoist sect. .

It is somewhat regrettable that Xu Zhengdao, who successfully embarked on the path of spiritual practice with the help of the sign-in system, found that there was nothing in the ring after he recognized the master storage ring through the spiritual power he had developed through cultivation.

The explanation given by the system is that this storage ring has not recognized its owner for many years and will lose its spirituality. The things stored in it in the early years will naturally disappear. Fortunately, the space pattern still exists, otherwise this storage ring will also be completely destroyed. Lost storage function.

It is precisely because of the existence of this storage ring that Xu Zhengdao can purchase the daily necessities needed for half a year every time he goes to the city. If there is no storage ring and all depends on people carrying it on their backs, he can purchase it again and again.

How much do you need to purchase?

In addition, even if he hunts prey in the mountains, every time he carries a big wild boar into the city and swaggers through the city, it is difficult not to attract attention. It can be said that having this storage ring really helps him save money.

Go to a lot of trouble!

Looking at the empty black mud ditch where the pigs were scattered, Xu Zhengdao, who successfully hunted two wild boars, said with satisfaction: "With these two wild boars, I think there should be no problem in purchasing the daily necessities needed for the New Year!"

Although he can hunt more wild boars in exchange for money, his past life experience has taught Xu Zhengdao a deep understanding of what it means to maintain ecological balance. Even though he knows that this approach sounds ridiculous in this day and age, he still hopes that the ecology of Yunwu Mountain will not be greatly affected.
