Chapter 14: Abandoning Husband and Son - Wild Boar Goes Down the Mountain

The Liu family's lunch was simple, with wild vegetable, mushroom and bird egg soup served with mixed flour pancakes, and two bird eggs cooked separately and put in their pockets, which were kept for Liu Wuqing.

The two children were very satisfied with the meal, and their little bellies were full from drinking the soup.

Wei Qiu in the next room took a bite of the pancake and dared not eat any more because he did not have a mother who could go out to dig wild vegetables and his father's work points were barely enough to make ends meet. He did not dare to eat more than one bite.

Did Zhou Leng know about Wei Qiu's situation? She did, but when she was poor, she had to take care of herself. Her own child was so hungry that he had to drink plain water to fill his stomach. She really couldn't bear to share a sip of soup with the child next door.

The children had their meal and there was nothing to do for entertainment, so after a while they lay down on the kang and fell asleep when the sun was at its brightest.

Zhou Leng packed up everything and sat cross-legged on the kang with his eyes closed to rest.

Maybe because this place is far away from the downtown and close to the forest, there is some pure and spiritual energy that can be absorbed by the human body. It is better than nothing.

Zhou Leng did not let go of any energy and absorbed it all into his body. Although he could not swallow the sky and escape the earth, he could still strengthen his body.

Here in Xiahewa, autumn seemed to have just made preparations when it was pushed down by winter and overtaken to the finish line. Then the northwest wind whistled and leaves fell immediately.

At this time, people had already worn thick cotton-padded jackets and thick cotton-padded trousers.

The Liu family of four has been staying at the Xiahewa renovation site for more than three months.

The New Year is approaching.

The white snow covered everything in sight. This was the dullest year for the children. There were no snacks, no new clothes, and even no red window decorations or couplets. They could only sit on the kang and play boring games.

After working for more than three months, Liu Wuqing was only given enough food for one person. Fortunately, Zhou Leng was now in good health. She went into the mountains whenever she had time and caught a few pheasants and rabbits, as well as some wild vegetables to dry in the sun. Otherwise, the four of them would not have survived this winter. Looking at this situation, it is clear why the houses here can accommodate the continuous flow of people without expansion.

Because everyone shared the stove, when they were not working, in order to eat only two meals a day, Zhou Leng began to let the people next door cook first, and his family talked inside the house first.

In the summer, the kang in their house was unsuitable for sleeping, but in the winter, it was also a benefit. The two families could keep the kang warm by cooking. The house was warm, so the two children who had just arrived did not feel the cold. It can be seen that everything has two sides.

bang bang.

Clang.

Zhou Leng was sitting on the kang when she suddenly felt the whole wall seemed to tremble. She thought it was an earthquake. Before she could reach out to her two children, she saw a black wild boar outside the window crashing into the earthen wall of their house from a distance.

Bang.

The house shook three times.

In winter, there is less food in the forest and the crops in the fields have been harvested. The wild boars can no longer bear the hunger and travel in groups.

After two failed attempts to break the door open, two wild boars turned and ran away, but one kept on hitting the house, almost making a hole in it.

Zhou Leng said quickly: "Old Liu, hold the child on the kang, I'm going to kill it." She picked up the kitchen knife that was almost always at hand, got up, put on her shoes and was about to go out.

"Wan Xin, you are crazy. This is a wild boar. You and the children stay in the house. I will go out and deal with them together." Liu Wuqing quickly got up and chased after it.

Zhou Leng turned around, pushed the man and said, "Stay in the room."

The woman left quickly after she finished speaking. The man looked back at the two obviously frightened children behind him. He walked over and picked up Liu Tingfang, who had already started crying, and said:

"Tingyan, put on your shoes quickly, let's go hide in Wei Qiu's room."

When Zhou Leng went out, two men from the opposite door also came out with sticks and kitchen knives. She followed them, and while the wild boar was still hitting the wall, they quickly opened the door and went out.

The wild boar heard the noise and ran towards the people. The people quickly dispersed to avoid the wild boar's "brutal charge".

Zhou Leng quickly ran to the side of the house, stepped on the low wall, and climbed onto the roof using her hands and feet. She shouted on the roof: "Lead the pig to me."

When the two men below heard this, although they thought it was unreliable, they had no other choice but to attract the wild boar to rush towards the house again.

Bang.

Ouch.

The pig hit the earthen wall of the house again. With a bang, a big hole was made in the wall, and it was obvious that it was leaking.

Zhou Leng saw the opportunity, jumped down from the roof, held the kitchen knife in both hands and chopped at the wild boar's neck. The wild boar screamed.

The kitchen knife did not cut off the wild boar's neck, but got stuck on its neck.

Zhou Leng loosened her numb hands and rolled quickly on the ground. She stood up quickly and ran away without caring about anything else. The blood and pain stimulated the mad wild boar, and it chased Zhou Leng like crazy.

In the blink of an eye, the two men saw the wild boar and the woman in the next room running farther and farther away. They wanted to chase them but didn't dare to. They felt uneasy if they didn't go. They stood there hesitating.

Bang.

Gunshots were heard from the direction of the village. They looked at each other and ran towards the village for help.

However, Zhou Leng ran faster and faster, always keeping a distance of one meter from the wild boar. As she reached the depths of the forest, she saw that she was about to reach the place she had chosen, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

A tree so big that no one could hug it was right in front of him. Zhou Leng exerted force with his feet, jumped onto the tree and climbed up quickly.

The wild boar, which couldn't turn, crashed into a tree and died on the spot.

Zhou Leng hugged the tree tightly and gasped with lingering fear. He was grateful for the fresh air here, otherwise there was no way he could outrun the wild boar with his current small body.

Two minutes later, she jumped down and looked at the sunken head of the wild boar. She pulled out her kitchen knife with force, and looked at the curled-up blade and thought helplessly - it's really hard for a good cook to cook without rice.

Zhou Leng dragged the wild boar along the ground, found a hillside, hid the wild boar there, covered it with dead branches and then covered it with snow. Then she cleaned up the traces and blood of the wild boar, and when she looked around and could no longer see any traces of the wild boar, she returned along the way.
