Reborn in the 1980s: Nine Stunning Beauties Get Pregnant Before Marriage

Chen Yongqiang verbally agreed to Liang Meie's request, thinking that since he had taken advantage of her, he should give her some benefits in return.

After Liang Meie's figure disappeared into the night, he squatted down again by the stone.

After a long time, just when he thought the wild boar wouldn't appear that night, he suddenly heard the soft sound of dry leaves being trampled in the woods on the mountain.

Based on his years of experience, he immediately concluded that wild boars were coming.

Sure enough, not long after, several dark figures emerged from the woods and slipped into the fields to forage for food.

By the moonlight, although their exact appearance was not clear, the outlines of five or six wild boars, some large and some small, could be vaguely discerned.

"Not too big, not too small," he muttered to himself.

Too big and they're hard to deal with; you can't take them down with one shot and it's dangerous. Too small and they're worthless to sell, which is a pity.

He quietly raised his musket, the muzzle moving slowly through the shadows until it finally locked onto a medium-sized wild boar, weighing about a hundred pounds, just the right size.

The beast was about twenty paces away from him, its head bowed and burying itself in the dirt, completely unaware of the impending danger.

Chen Yongqiang steadied his breathing and put his finger on the trigger.

"Now's the time." He found the perfect angle and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out.

The musket spewed fire, and the smell of gunpowder instantly filled the air.

The wild boar fell to the ground with a thud, letting out a mournful howl, and rolled and struggled in the field.

The remaining wild boars were startled and scattered, running back into the forest.

Chen Yongqiang dared not be careless. He slowly approached with his gun in hand. Just when he was three or five steps away from the wild boar, the beast suddenly sprang up and lunged at him!

Chen Yongqiang reacted extremely quickly, dodging to the side and simultaneously swinging his musket, smashing it hard on the wild boar's head.

The rifle butt knocked the wild boar off course, but it turned around and charged again with even greater ferocity.

Chen Yongqiang's hunting knife was already drawn from its sheath.

Just as the wild boar brushed past him, he reacted swiftly, his hunting knife precisely piercing the boar's neck, and slashing it forcefully.

Warm blood gushed out, and the wild boar charged forward a few more steps before finally collapsing to the ground with a thud, its four hooves twitching as it breathed its last.

Chen Yongqiang then let out a long breath, a surge of excitement coursing through his body.

He reached out and patted the wild boar's back. "With this wild boar, we won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of the month."

All the dangers in the deep mountains and forests were worth it at this moment.

According to the rules of the mountain herders, taking things from the mountains depends on skill and luck. Tonight, the mountain god has blessed them with a meal.

Chen Yongqiang kicked up some mud and hastily covered the wild boar blood on the ground to avoid frightening the villagers who came to work during the day.

Just as he was about to drag his prey away, the voice in his head rang again:

[System notification: Mission progress updated. Current progress: Wild boars eliminated (1/3). Please continue the forest protection mission.]

[Mission Rewards: 50 Fortune Points, Special Item, 1 Type 56 Semi-Automatic Rifle! (Incomplete)]

Chen Yongqiang has already hunted one tonight, and only two more are needed to complete his mission.

He glanced again in the direction of the wild boar herd fleeing through the mountains, and a surge of excitement welled up inside him.

The allure of the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle was simply too great.

This gun is powerful, has a magazine that can hold ten 7.62 bullets, a long range, and high accuracy. Unlike this old musket in my hand, which needs to be reloaded after every shot.

"If I had a rifle, I could have shot down at least two or three more wild boars just now," Chen Yongqiang muttered to himself.

He loaded the musket with gunpowder again; it was still dark, and he wanted to try his luck one more time.

Chen Yongqiang circled the edge of the forest again, hoping to catch up with the herd of wild boars.

After chasing it for a while without finding anything, he turned back to the edge of the field and put the wild boar, which weighed about 100 pounds, into his spatial storage.

"Having this space is so convenient! I won't have to carry the game so hard anymore."

When Chen Yongqiang was almost in his own yard, he took the wild boar out of his spatial storage again.

"Xiulian, get up and help!" Chen Yongqiang called into the house.

The lights came on inside, and Lin Xiulian put on a coat and came out of the house.

Seeing the large wild boar lying on the stone slab, his eyes widened: "Brother Yongqiang, did you catch this? That's amazing, it's huge!"

She reached out her hand, wanting to touch it but not daring to, her hand hovering over the wild boar's thick fur.

Chen Yongqiang took off his coat and instructed her, "Go boil a pot of water. We need to deal with this wild boar quickly."

As he spoke, he walked to the eaves, took out a whetstone from the base of the wall, and sharpened the kitchen knife.

Lin Xiulian responded and went into the kitchen to boil water: "How did you manage to bring such a big thing back by yourself?"

"This one only weighs about 100 pounds, not heavy. I encountered one weighing over 200 pounds tonight, but I didn't dare to touch it." The kitchen knife in Chen Yongqiang's hand made a rhythmic swishing sound on the whetstone.

Soon, wisps of smoke rose from the chimney and disappeared into the night.

While everyone else in the village had already turned off their lights and gone to sleep, Chen Yongqiang's courtyard was still brightly lit, making it seem particularly lively.

Chen Yongqiang held a knife and was carefully scraping the wild boar's hair.

He pointed to a spot that hadn't been cleaned properly and instructed Lin Xiulian, "Bring some boiling water; this needs to be scalded again."

Lin Xiulian quickly scooped up hot water with a ladle and poured it on the spot.

Using the steam as a spring, Chen Yongqiang quickly slashed the pig hair a few times with his knife, and the stiff black bristles fell off, revealing the clean white skin underneath.

He turned the cleaned wild boar over and plunged the sharp knife into its belly.

He was very careful in his actions, cutting open the wild boar with a single stroke along the center line.

Chen Yongqiang continued working, explaining to Lin Xiulian, "The most valuable part of this wild boar is its belly."

He took out the still-warm wild boar stomach.

"Wild boars graze on grass roots all day in the mountains, so they must get plenty of good medicinal herbs," Chen Yongqiang explained while rinsing the food with clean water.

"Over time, the medicinal properties accumulate on the abdominal wall, forming this medicinal layer. The better the quality, the higher the price."

Lin Xiulian asked curiously, "This wild boar stomach must fetch a good price, right?"

Chen Yongqiang placed the processed wild boar stomach into a wooden basin: "It depends on luck. If you happen to come across someone who needs stomach medicine, the price can increase several times over."

As he spoke, he cut off a piece of lean wild boar meat and handed it to Lin Xiulian: "You haven't tasted wild boar meat before, have you? Take this and stir-fry it with chili peppers."

Lin Xiulian took the piece of meat with its distinct marbling, hesitating slightly: "Such good meat, it must fetch a good price!"

"You should always try the new things you want to try." Chen Yongqiang laughed heartily. He believed that while he should be frugal, he couldn't live a life of poverty.

Lin Xiulian then took the meat and quickly walked towards the stove.

Before long, a sizzling sound came from the kitchen as the wild boar meat was put into the hot pan, followed by the rhythmic stirring of the spatula.

As Chen Yongqiang cut up the remaining pork, he called out, "Pour some Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) into the pot and sauté it all together!"

The sound of stir-frying in the kitchen paused for a moment, followed by the sound of a wine bottle being opened.

Then, a rich aroma of wine mixed with the smell of meat instantly filled the courtyard, making people unable to resist swallowing their saliva.
