The mountain was rich in prey, which meant there were wolves and tigers. With these ferocious beasts, no one who could depend on farming to survive in the mountains.
Fortunately, nature could regulate itself, otherwise the wild beasts in the mountains would have become a disaster.
Ning Yan picked up the fainted rabbit that was lying on the ground, stopped for a moment and looked back. She could vaguely hear a wild boar howling, holding onto the rabbit, she jumped onto a tree trunk and climbed up a few times.
From above, the wild boar's howl was getting closer and closer.
Ning Yan placed the rabbit in her hand on a tree branch, picked up her machete and looked towards the wild boar's direction with a howl.
When the wild boar entered his line of sight, one of its tusks was broken, and two wild wolves were following behind it.
Only two?
Wolves were social animals. Even if she only saw two wolves, Ning Yan did not dare to act rashly. Even if the wild boar ran into the distance, it did not hurriedly chase after it.
As expected …
Within a few minutes, a pack of wolves had arrived. Ning Yan could clearly see that when the head wolf ran past him, it raised its head and looked at the tree.
Maybe it was a miscalculation for the head wolf. After walking around under the tree for a few times, she left the tree and watched as the wild wolf left. Ning Yan threw the rabbit in her hand onto the tree and jumped down to the left.
Ning Yan did not dare to face a pack of wolves head on. She did not have any guns or any drugs in her hands, she must be stupid to think that she could use her weak body to confront a pack of wolves.
After leaving, Ning Yan lied down in the bushes.
Because he was disguised, other than the rabbits that escaped from his sight, he could not find the existence of Ning Yan.
After lying on the grass for a while, the pack of wolves that had just left slowly walked past.
Ning Yan approached the wolf pack slowly. When the wolf pack passed him, she threw the rope in her hands out, trapping the male wolf in front of him. She was afraid that the male wolf's howl would alert the male wolf in front of him.
Ning Yan stretched out her hand and pulled the male wolf into the bushes.
The rope was attached to the male wolf's neck. With this pull, the wolf was killed.
Carrying the wolf, Ning Yan didn't dare to continue delaying.
Who knows when the wolves will find a wolf missing, and if they do? The wolf was a vengeful animal, so it was fine if it wasn't discovered. However, if it was found, then he wouldn't have to be on tenterhooks when he went up the mountain in the future.
While carrying the wolf on his back, he would occasionally encounter one or two wild furs and rabbits, and in accordance with the principle of not letting go, the stone bullets in his hands would be used, and his harvest would become even richer.
The rabbit that had been knocked out by a stone was still alive. Ning Yan pondered for a moment as she took the rabbit home and placed it inside the rabbit nest, letting it grow more than enough. In any case, the child liked to raise these things.
The mountain road was rough, and by the time Ning Yan reached the foot of the mountain, the sun had already set.
Last time, he brought Lu Da down the mountain with great luck and did not meet anyone. This time …
Just as she walked down the mountain, Ning Yan saw a pretty girl called Wu Mei. Wu Mei had a brother called Wu Huaishan who also frequently went up the mountain.
A few years ago, Wu Huaishan had joined the army, and fought on the frontlines for a few years. After returning, he discovered that his family's fields had been sold quite a bit by his wife, and he could only rely on his strength to occasionally hunt wild animals in the mountains.
Wild animals could be exchanged for more money than farming. However, there were ferocious beasts on the mountain that could not be penetrated. Even so, it was still extremely dangerous.
Seeing Wu Mei, Ning Yan knew that Wu Huaishan was also on the mountain.
"Ning Yan, have you seen my brother?"
Wu Mei shook her head as she heard Wu Mei's voice. The forest was very big, so the chance of meeting people on the mountain was much lower.
When Ning Yan got closer, she realized that there was something huge on Ning Yan's back. Her brother didn't dare to offend her either.
Swallowing his saliva, he asked, "Is, is this a wolf?"
"It's a wolf." Ning Yan responded as shshecontinued to walk down the mountain. When she walked, he deliberately ignored the greed in Wu Mei's eyes.
Wu Mei stared at Ning Yan's back until her figure disappeared from her sight.
After waiting for a while, Wu Mei finally saw Wu Huaishan's figure. On Wu Huaishan's back was a gunny sack filled with blood.
"Brother, I saw Ning Yan just now. She was carrying two rabbits and a wolf."
"Nonsense."
Everyone in the village said that Ning Yan had picked up a deer by luck and now, she's fighting a wolf.
"How should I know? Why are you waiting here? Didn't you say you were going to do some mending for your sister-in-law at home? You don't need to run out …"
"I just wanted to wait for you."
Wu Mei lowered her head as she spoke, her two fingers entwined together.
After walking two steps behind Wu Huaishan, Wu Mei suddenly said: "I don't want to marry that brother that sister-in-law of mine. I heard that he and the county's Qingniang who was selling tofu is unclear."
"What nonsense are you spouting? How could your sister-in-law harm you?"
"Brother, I'm the only brother like you. Dad and mom left early, you can't just ignore me." As Wu Mei said this, she began to cry.
She was crying like it was raining, her tears falling drop by drop, completely different from the way those shrews in the village were shouting and shouting, causing Wu Huaishan's heart to ache from her crying.
"Don't cry, don't cry. I'll find out when I go to the county tomorrow to sell some wild animals. If that person's character is really bad, then we won't be getting married."
"Bro, you're still the best." Wu Mei laughed through her tears as her gaze landed on the direction of the Ning Family.
Who would like to marry a person who steals chickens and dogs all day? It wasn't like they didn't have a good choice.
But...
Wu Mei's eyes slowly revealed a hidden bitterness, she liked Ning Qianci who was in the same village as her. She was an Elementary Scholar at a young age, and her looks were also good.
It was just that it was not easy to get along with the old lady Ning Family, but Ning Qianci would definitely take the examination and become a High Scholar, he would probably go out and work for them, so he did not need to wait on them.
How could she get the attention of Ning Qianci? Wu Mei fell into deep thought once more.
Wu Huaishan didn't know anything about Wu Mei's thoughts.
Wu Huaishan carried the gunny sack on his back, used his sleeves to wipe the sweat off his forehead and continued to walk home.
"..."
"..."
Ning Yan returned home and threw the wolf on her back onto the ground.
Ning, who was sitting by the desk and listening to Lu Hanzhang's instructions, ran outside.
Lu Hanzhang lied on his bed. He also wanted to go out and take a look, but after walking around the house for a while, his wounds had started to crack, and after applying the medicine with great difficulty, he was able to recover a little. This situation could not be allowed to continue on any longer. He could only cast a sidelong glance at the outside.
Ning Zu stood in front of Ning Yan, and looked at the prey in Ning Yan's hands: "It's a wolf!"
"Of course, is Mother really that amazing?"
"And rabbits." Rabbit, who had just woken up from a coma, smelled the scent of a wolf and lied on the ground, pretending to be dead. He used his finger to poke at the wolf before jumping up.
"Rabbits are also alive," Ning Jiu exclaimed.
"Of course, I'll keep it for you. Don't you like raising rabbits?"
"I like to raise wolves too." He stretched out his small hand and touched the dead wolf.
His coarse fur was still sticking out, but … He didn't want to let go and didn't even care about the rabbit on the ground.
With a wolf's size, it must be expensive.
Once the property of a financial fanatic was released, it would be difficult to retract it.
The sound of's conversation could be heard in the house, Lu Hanzhang suddenly wanted to go out and take a look.
