Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

These days, the resources in the mountains are truly excellent.

As soon as the two entered the deep mountains, the ground was covered with the footprints of pheasants and grouse.

Moreover, as long as you pass by places with wild sea buckthorn trees or wild fruits.

You can see quite a few pheasants hiding among them.

However, none of these were Lu Weiguo's goals.

Pheasants and flying dragons have at most two ounces of meat on them.

With a single shot from a hunting rifle, practically nothing is left below the neck.

To catch them, you either need to spot one and chase it using your physical strength.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these are all flying "birds".

They could catch up with three vehicles, but they were all too tired to walk.

Alternatively, you could use a net or apron, like the kind used for catching fish.

As long as there's enough food to use as bait, you can catch them every time.

(The author's elders were hunters who roamed the mountains, and these methods of catching pheasants are based on real, firsthand experience.)

If you have the chance, you can try this method, but you must release them after you catch them.

These days, pheasants are a real crime.

This time, Lu Weiguo had only one goal for going up the mountain.

That's the big lone pig in the foothills.

Wild boars are social animals, with groups mainly consisting of sows.

Most adult male pigs will voluntarily leave the herd, which is what people often call a "wild boar".

Northeasterners often use pictographic characters when naming their children. The pig's genitals, for example, are quite large and suggestive.

As for why they beat up the big lone pig, it was because when Lu Weiguo left Zhao Jiaying's house.

The casual remark made by Zhao's mother.

The newly transferred county party secretary suffered from stomach problems due to years of hardship.

And the Great Lone Pig only has the belly of the Great Lone Pig.

Because they had to forage for themselves year-round, eating all sorts of weeds and herbs.

It has strong elasticity, good digestion ability, and certain medicinal properties.

No matter how severe the stomach ailment is, eating a pig's stomach will not necessarily cure it.

It should be mostly healed by now.

The two walked along the mountain path, specifically choosing low-lying areas favored by wild boars.

After traversing three hilltops, we finally spotted wild boar tracks at a mountain ridge.

"Dazhuang, are you cold? If you are, come here and make a fire. Rest a bit before chasing the wild boar again."

"We won't have time to rest until we kill a wild boar."

Lu Weiguo squatted down and examined the wild boar droppings that hadn't yet frozen solid.

The excrement was crushed by hand, containing a lot of wild grass and animal hair.

It can be basically determined that it is an adult boar.

The sow had piglets, and she left all the wild grass for them to eat; their feces were mostly grass roots.

"I'm not cold at all. The pants my brother gave me are really warm. I used to run around naked. For us poor people, skin is our only clothing. We can only survive if we can withstand the cold."

Upon hearing this, Lu Weiguo turned around in shock.

Liu Dazhuang had thick eyebrows, phoenix eyes, a reclining face, a full forehead, a large nose, a high nose bridge, and even two peacock patterns at the corners of his eyes.

He clearly has the appearance of a noble person.

He would suddenly say things that were far beyond his comprehension.

But he's just a stubborn fool.

Are these the village guardians of Fendou Village this generation?

Heaven protects us, yet the world seems determined to bully the honest.

Lu Weiguo sighed, stood up, and said, "Then we won't rest. Remember, if we encounter danger, do whatever I say."

Even if it means you're being told to die, you can't hesitate.

"Of course! Brother Weiguo, just let me jump down the ridge right now, and I'll jump right now."

"Get lost, stop saying such useless things. Let's go, talk when you're tired."

Following the path down the mountainside, not far along, we saw a large, plump, and robust lone pig leaning against a pine tree, rubbing itself against the pine resin.

The lone boar fights alone, relying solely on its greasy mane.

After rubbing against the pine resin, it rolled on the ground.

The bristles covered in mud and pebbles provide the strongest natural protection.

Upon seeing the wild boar, Liu Dazhuang immediately looked at Lu Weiguo.

It's as if to say, "Should I go up and fight the wild boar?"

Lu Weiguo glared at the dumbfounded Liu Dazhuang and pulled out his hunting rifle from his back.

He then took two bullets out of his pocket.

A double-barreled shotgun, requiring reloading after every two shots.

A skilled hunter can take seven steps and fire five shots, with bullets held between his fingers, and reload extremely quickly.

At his peak in his previous life, Lu Weiguo could only manage eight steps and four shots, yet he still earned the title of "Quick Shotman" at the World Hunting Championships.

Raise your gun and aim.

Just as the wild boar twitched its nose, finally noticing the danger, it raised its head and aimed its tusks at Lu Weiguo.

Just listen!

"Bang!"

The smell of gunpowder rose as a bullet pierced the wild boar's ear, whittling past its eye.

"Damn! This gun handle is crooked! Da Zhuang! Climb the tree!"

Hunting rifles are expensive, but bullets are even more expensive. Without a gun license, he couldn't buy bullets, and all he had were the dozen or so bullets his mother-in-law had given him.

It was so precious, how could he bear to calibrate it in advance?

"Pan'er! Pan'er!!"

The large, lone boar that was shot instantly had its dark eyes filled with blood.

There was not a trace of fear in his eyes, only anger at the provocation.

There's an old saying in Northeast China: "First a pig, second a bear, third a tiger."

This doesn't correspond to the strength of animals, but rather to another saying: the weak fear the strong, the strong fear the stubborn, and the stubborn fear the reckless.

This lone pig is reckless and doesn't care about its own life.

When wild boars in a herd hear gunshots, their natural instincts will cause them to scatter and flee.

But the big lone pig was provoked, regardless of whether the opponent was a human, a bear, or a tiger.

Staring with pig-like eyes, it lowers its head and starts rooting.

When a pig runs into a tree, it usually refers to a large, solitary pig.

"Pan'er!"

Another pig squeal rang out.

The large lone boar pawed at the ground with its hind legs, gathering enough strength, and charged at Lu Weiguo like a madman.

The wild boars were incredibly imposing, and the snow they kicked up only amplified the unknown fear.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

Behind Lu Weiguo, Liu Dazhuang was truly obedient. Without saying a word, he scurried up the pine tree like a gorilla.

Lu Weiguo faced the wild boar and exhaled a long breath.

He was mentally calculating the angle of the ballistic deviation.

Facing the wild boar that had gone berserk, Lu Weiguo's hands trembled slightly as he held his breath.

"Bang!"

Another shot!

This time, the shot didn't miss.

The bullet went through the wild boar's eye and went straight into its head.

One shot was all it took; the wild boar's body instantly stiffened.

But it rushed over too fast.

This large lone pig looks to weigh over 300 pounds.

As we all know, inertia is only related to weight.

The wild boar carcass, its head bowed and propelled forward by inertia, was less than two meters away from Lu Weiguo.

His eyes remained fixed on the wild boar, but his hands never stopped moving.

The bullet, held between his fingers, was loaded into the chamber.

Just as the wild boar slid right in front of Lu Weiguo!

He fired another shot, hitting the wild boar directly in the forehead!

Then, he raised his right foot and landed right on the boar's carcass.

All the movements were performed in one smooth motion, as if they had been planned in advance.

Only then did Lu Weiguo gasp for breath, sweat dripping from his forehead like water.

He covered his chest with his left hand, bent over, and his body trembled slightly.

His clothes were instantly soaked.

It took a full minute before he caught his breath and excitedly pumped his fist!
