Chapter 397 Wild Boar Herd
"Okay, I've learned something new today."
The group was chatting idly.
Then Lei Guohong burst into laughter: "There are so many bee pupae inside, enough to stir-fry two large plates!"
"This tastes amazing! I haven't had it in over ten years. It's really good today!"
Old Zeng hurriedly picked up the bee pupae and put them into a small cloth bag, saying that these things were even more nutritious than beef.
After collecting the bee pupae, the two men slightly restored the beehive, muttering to themselves, "I wonder if these bees will ever come back. It would be such a shame if they didn't return to such a wonderful hive..."
Chang Kun smiled slightly. They had drained the bees of their food and manpower. It was no wonder the bees would come back. Did they expect to be drained again next year?
After cleaning the beehive, everyone took a bite of beeswax, their expressions as if they had eaten peaches from the Queen Mother of the West, their eyebrows practically flying to the sky.
It was almost noon, so we decided to have lunch somewhere else, finding a spot under a tree about 200 meters away from the beehive.
The group lit a fire, took out dry rations from their bags, and each carried a water bottle.
Chang Kun didn't bring any fancy food. He casually took out a few potatoes and sweet potatoes and buried them in the fire. He also buried the wild eggs he had picked up in the warm ashes.
The roasted potatoes and sweet potatoes had an exceptional aroma. Xiao Xiu'er usually didn't care much for these at home, but in the mountains, perhaps due to the different environment, she ate them with gusto.
After eating, a ring of black whiskers grew around his little mouth, which made everyone burst into laughter.
After eating two more roasted wild eggs, everyone was extremely satisfied.
The afternoon sun was blocked by layers of white clouds, and Xiuer was feeling a bit sluggish, so she lay on her older brother's lap and dozed off.
Chang Kun flicked her forehead: "I told you not to come, but you insisted. Are you sleepy now?"
The little girl got up at five o'clock this morning, so she's sleepy now.
She rolled over, leaning closer to her older brother to find a more comfortable position, muttering, "Big brother, hold me..."
There was no way around it; Xiuer was the cutest in the family, so Chang Kun couldn't help but favor her a little more.
Chang Kun carried Xiu'er on his shoulders, Lü Jiawei hoisted the sack containing the snake, Hou Jun carried the pheasant and rabbit, and Xiao Yu carefully held the honey in his hands.
Everyone had something in their hands. Lei Guohong and Lao Zeng exchanged a smile. These four apprentices were truly worth taking on, and this trip into the mountains today was definitely worthwhile.
"Try walking this way."
Chang Kun pointed in a direction and discovered that after so much time, the group of wild boars was still in the same spot.
Perhaps they're eating grass roots and berries?
It hasn't moved for so long, it might run away at any time, I need to speed things up.
Fortunately, the group was used to their daily training, so they were not afraid of walking on mountain roads. Following Chang Kun's footsteps, they hurriedly headed north.
When they were about a mile from where the wild boars were, Chang Kun put a finger to his lips and said, "Shh!"
"Look, what's this?"
He pointed to the messy hoof prints on the ground.
"Wild boar?!" Lu Jiawei exclaimed in surprise, then immediately covered his mouth.
The others were also pleasantly surprised. They had only said they wanted to hunt wild boars, but they knew in their hearts that it was extremely difficult to encounter one.
I never expected to actually find wild boars here!
"What are you waiting for? Let's follow the pig's hoof prints!"
Lü Jiawei, Hou Jun, and Xiao Yu were all eager to get started and couldn't wait.
"Put your things here. Let's travel light and check our equipment first," Chang Kun instructed.
Lei Guohong and Lao Zeng nodded. Chang Kun's calm demeanor was exactly what an experienced hunter should be like.
Regardless of whether we find the wild boar, we should first check our guns and ammunition in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
Each of them carried a Type 38 rifle on their shoulder, and upon hearing this, they all took it out and checked it again.
Chang Kun also took off the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle from his shoulder, pretended to check it, and walked forward holding the gun in one hand and Xiu'er in the other.
The pig hoof prints were very clear, pointing towards a hollow in the mountain ahead.
The group of six stealthily made their way in that direction. Chang Kun reached out to test the wind direction and turned to the others, saying, "Let's change direction; let's go downwind now."
The others listened to Chang Kun's every word and followed him around a bend, climbing up another hill.
Holy crap!
"So many wild boars!"
"We're rich! We're rich!"
Hou Jun, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Lü crouched behind a large rock on the hilltop and secretly peeked into the valley. They were so shocked that their eyes popped out of their sockets.
"Keep quiet! If you scare away the wild boars, I'll cut off your thighs and eat them," Lei Guohong whispered a curse.
His hands were trembling slightly; in that brief glance, he had seen at least six or seven wild boars.
Chang Kun had already clearly seen through his senses that there were two large wild boars, one male and one female, plus six small wild boars weighing thirty or forty pounds each.
Little wild boars are just a few months old. They have brown and black fur and look kind of cute. Although they don't have much meat, they are tender and have no gamey smell, making them much tastier than adult wild boars.
Hou Jun silently counted in his mind: six guns in total. He would be lucky to take down half of these wild boars.
Moreover, his finger was swollen from a bee sting, so it's uncertain whether his marksmanship will be able to remain consistent.
Seeing a group of wild boars that he couldn't finish eating, he was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks.
"Junior brother, tell me quickly, what's the plan? There are so many wild boars, it would be a waste to let even one escape!"
The group watched Chang Kun, waiting for his instructions.
Chang Kun thought for a moment and then assigned tasks to the group.
"I just counted, there are two big guys and six little guys."
Lei Guohong quickly interjected, "Chang Kun, we should prioritize attacking the larger ones. The smaller ones don't offer much meat, and it's not a big loss if they escape."
He knew that wild boar meat tasted better, but the big ones had more meat!
One large one is more than worth ten small ones!
Chang Kun nodded and said, "Then how about this: the big boar will be fought by Master, Xiao Lü, and Brother Monkey together... the big sow will be fought by Uncle Zeng and Xiao Yu..."
"With this kind of crossfire, someone's bound to hit!"
"Remember, don't try to hit the pig's head, aim for its body. That area has a larger surface area and is easier to hit."
Hou Jun glanced at Xiao Xiu'er in Chang Kun's arms and sighed, "In that case, we won't be able to catch those little guys, which is a bit of a pity."
Lei Guohong glared at his apprentice: "You're not satisfied with two big guys? These two together weigh at least four or five hundred pounds. I don't know how I'm going to get them back."
Chang Kun was speechless for a moment. It was a pity that Monkey King had to let the wild boar escape. His master was already worried about how to transport the boar. It seemed that the wild boar had become theirs for the taking.
If he went into the mountains himself and used his one-hit-kill skill, none of these wild boars would be able to escape.
But now that everyone's here, we definitely need to give others a chance to shine, otherwise they'll feel embarrassed even when they're sharing the pork.
Lü Jiawei smacked his lips: "Who knew we'd run into a herd of pigs when we came here? We didn't even dare to dream of it. If we can take down these two big pigs, we'll be laughing for months!"
Following Chang Kun's instructions, the group found positions to lie in ambush, hoping to shoot from different directions and take down the wild boar directly.
Chang Kun glanced at the small wild boars he sensed and thought to himself that wild boar meat wasn't tasty and he didn't like it either.
These little guys are tender and delicious; we can't let them go to waste.
I'm getting married soon, and if I put a big plate of roast suckling pig on the table, I'll definitely make a great impression!
