It's really hard to just farm peacefully.

Chapter 333

Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!!

Jiang Yan screamed silently and threw out the "javelin" that she had been holding tightly after climbing up the tree.

What a bad luck! Even wild boars think she is a soft persimmon that is easy to pick on!

Jiang Hu and Jiang Fu shouted worriedly: "Be careful!!!"

Then, in an awkward position of hugging the tree trunk, he kept shooting wooden arrows at the wild boar that was hitting the tree trunk, trying to stop it from moving further and disperse the attack.

Jiang Yan was caused by the transmitted vibration and collided with the tree trunk. His chest ached and he slid down.

She struggled to move upwards, clinging to the tree trunk with all her limbs. Fortunately, she had climbed high enough in the beginning, so even if she came down a little, she would still be within safe range.

Jiang Yan looked down at the mad wild boar and felt that if it hit the tree a few more times, the tree would break. She would most likely be seriously injured first and then killed by the boar.

Today she only brought two weapons up the mountain, a "javelin" that had been broken by a pig's hoof, and a big knife in her backpack.

She wanted to save herself, but the noise gave her no chance to do so, and the sword would definitely go astray if she swung it.

Jiang Yan couldn't stop feeling anxious.

The pig was covered in blood, and the big wounds on its body were further cracked by her spear and the wooden arrows shot by Jiang Hu and Jiang Fu. How could it still have such tenacious vitality?

With a "click", Jiang Yan felt the tree trunk tilt slightly.

While she was assessing the direction in which the trunk might fall and whether she could possibly climb up another large tree, she continued to keep an eye on the wild boar's movements.

Fortunately, after enduring another collision, the wild boar began to lose its strength. Its roars became sharper, and its movements became visibly slow and weak.

More importantly, the pig chasers have arrived.

The wild boar had to change direction and confront the four people not far away.

Jiang Yan took the opportunity to pull out a big knife from the backpack, concentrating and holding his breath.

Seeing that the wild boar had gathered its strength and was about to rush forward, Jiang Yan's knife flew out of his hand.

Qi Er, who wanted to attack from behind, suddenly felt a chill on his head, and a big knife was inserted diagonally into the back of the wild boar in front of him.

The wild boar's skin was thick, so the knife didn't penetrate deeply, but even though it was shaking back and forth, it didn't fall off.

Before he could recover from the shock of having his head chopped off, Qi Er saw an axe coming from the front and hitting the wild boar's head with a dull "bang".

If the pig in front of me dodges, then I... this is really unbearable.

Qi Er cursed loudly: "Damn, your brains have been eaten by rats, right? You kill a pig and you have to use knives and axes everywhere. If you have a grudge against me, just come directly. What kind of ability is it to deliberately plot against me!"

His cursing was the only sound left in the forest.

She was one of the people who were hit by the flying knife, and Jiang Yan felt guilty and didn't dare to bring bad luck upon herself. She tiptoed down from the tree that was in danger of falling, and then leaned against another tree to endure the scolding.

She could understand the first few sentences, but not the rest. It must be the local swear word.

Jiang Yan waited for a while, until Qi Er finished his round of scolding. Even without seeing his face, he could feel that his anger had dissipated a lot. Then he couldn't help but say, "Brothers, give the pig a few more stabs."

The wild boar lying on the ground was still grunting and scratching its limbs. Jiang Yan felt uncomfortable watching it and was worried that it would suddenly launch a sneak attack while it was low on health.

"Damn it!" Qi Er was startled again by the sudden voice behind him.

Hong Lao Ba, who had already noticed the movements of Jiang Yan, Jiang Hu and Jiang Fu, glanced at the three of them expressionlessly, then lowered his crossed arms, pulled out the axe with force and chopped them a few more times.

Very good, he passed away completely. Jiang Yan was relieved now.

She half-raised her hands, and under the gaze of the four people, she quickly approached the wild boar to retrieve the big knife, and then retreated a long and safe distance.

Jiang Hu and Jiang Fu followed closely behind, protecting Jiang Yan on the left and right.

Qi Er twitched his lips and said, "This knife... did you fly it?"

Jiang Yan nodded sheepishly and apologized sincerely, "I'm so sorry, I didn't expect you to go to that position."

Qi Er's eyes were wide open with anger, and he was about to start a new round of cursing when Jiang Yan hurriedly interrupted him.

"Hey guys, this tree might fall down at any moment. Why don't you find another place to rest?"

……

Because they were frightened in the mountains and worried that other wild boars would come to take revenge or more ferocious beasts would smell the scent, Jiang Yan and the other two decided not to stay in the mountains and went down the mountain immediately.

It was not yet evening when they returned to the village. Jiang Wang was a little surprised to see the three of them: "You're back so early today?"

Jiang Hu said, "We encountered a wild boar in the back mountain. Uncle, we need to tell the villagers not to go in for the time being."

Jiang Wang said he knew.

After visiting each house, he returned to Jiang Yan's yard. Seeing seven wild animals lying on the ground ready to be processed, he rolled up his sleeves to help.

"These and those rabbit skins are in good condition, enough to make a few scarves. Remember to go to Hezhou Village in a few days and ask Jiang Lu to take you to Wang Laoma to have the skins saltpetered."

Jiang Yan nodded "yes", then asked curiously: "Aren't you going to nitrate the others together?"

Jiang Wang laughed and said, "Old Wang is very generous when he wants things. Those things are not worth taking."

"I see..." Jiang Yan recalled his previous failed attempt, "If there is no other use for it, leave it to me."

"What are you doing? Tanning leather?" Jiang Wang's voice rose slightly. "Do you know how to do this?"

Jiang Yan quickly shook his head: "I don't know how yet, let's try, try..."

Then he added, "This time two years ago, I tried soaking two pieces of leather myself. I guess I soaked them for too long...they all rotted...I'll soak them for a shorter time this time, maybe it will work."

Okay, as long as it’s not a waste, Jiang Wang doesn’t intend to stop you.

Back to the matter of the wild boar in the back mountain, Jiang Wang once again reminded the three people to be careful and not to do anything dangerous rashly.

"A few years ago, a few people from the neighboring village of Qianshan went into the mountains to hunt wild boars. One of them had his stomach ruptured and couldn't be saved, and another broke his leg and is still limping."

"Back when I was younger than you, there was a year when several wild boars rushed directly into Xishan Village, collapsing many walls and injuring many people."

The elders of Dongshan Village often talk about these two things to remind the young people in the village not to go into the mountains rashly, and not to foolishly provoke wild boars just because they think they can eat meat.

For this reason, Jiang Yan begged Jiang Hu and Jiang Fu on her way down the mountain to keep secret the fact that she was targeted by a wild boar and was almost in danger.

Rather than being closely watched by her elders and having to reduce the frequency of going into the mountains to hunt for wild animals to satisfy her meat craving, she was more afraid that she would become a negative example, which would not only be talked about from time to time by the people of Dongshan Village, but would also be spread in the surrounding villages for ten or even a hundred years.

Jiang Yan couldn't help but shiver, then buried his head even lower, pretending that he was concentrating on his work.
