Traveling back to ancient times to determine the zodiac

"Snap" the axe hit its little eye, making the black pig demon see stars and take a few steps back.

Dong heaved a sigh of relief and warned everyone, "Xi, brothers, this muddy place is difficult to move forward or backward. Everyone should be careful."

At this time, the white pig demon also rushed over with a roar, and Bei and Zhong, who were standing next to him, waved their stone knives to meet him. The white pig demon also bit Bei, and Bei raised his knife and chopped at the pig's head. Although he hit it right, the knife couldn't penetrate it and couldn't hurt it. The white pig demon shook his head and bit Bei again. Bei retreated quickly, but his legs and feet were stuck, and he couldn't dodge and was knocked to the ground by the white pig demon. The white pig demon wanted to move forward and hit again, but Zhong shouted, "Hey, damn pig demon, watch out for the knife!" He chopped the white pig demon on the head again. The white pig demon was just hit by a knife, and seeing that he was not injured, he was not afraid, and rushed to bite Zhong's foot.

He was hit by a knife but was not hurt. In a hurry, he retreated repeatedly, but his speed was too slow. Just when he was about to be bitten, a big stick suddenly came down from the side and hit the white pig monster on the head. With a "snap", the white pig monster almost had a concussion.

The white pig demon yelled, jumped aside, stared at Heizi holding the stick, and said in disbelief: "I never thought that the weapons of monkey-like humans are really powerful."

"You stupid pig, if you know how powerful I am, just surrender quickly. Otherwise, I will chop off your head and roast your meat." Heizi cursed.

"You monkey-like human, I haven't had enough fun yet, why should I surrender?" The white pig demon slowed down, shook his head and rushed towards Heizi again.

At this time, more pig spirits rushed over from behind, and everyone started fighting with the pigs.

The pigs were not only extremely ferocious, but also had thick skin and flesh, so they were very resistant to attack. Although they were all experienced hunters, they were in the swamp, the poisonous gas was overwhelming, and they were not able to move easily. Soon, someone was knocked down and injured by the pigs. Xiao Xing saw that the situation was not good and shouted, "Brother Dong, brothers, there are so many pigs and they are so fierce. Let's retreat quickly."

"Xing, don't be impatient, wait a moment before you retreat." Dong fought the black pig monster, and although he tried his best, he still couldn't gain the upper hand. Seeing that the black pig monster was charging at him again without paying any attention, he quickly retreated and fought back. Because his feet were muddy and he couldn't dodge in time, he was knocked to the ground by the black pig monster, and his leg was pierced by the long fangs, and blood immediately flowed out.

"Ouch - Xi, I'm hurt, come and save me." Dong shouted, waving the stone axe in his hand.

At this moment, Xi was also entangled by a pig spirit and had no time to care about anything else. He shouted back, "Brother Dong, no, I can't stand it anymore. These pig spirits are too powerful."

Xiao Xing heard this and fought off a pig monster. He ran towards Dong and shouted, "Brother Dong, I'm here to save you."

Xiaoxing came to Dong's side, raised the stone knife and chopped at the black pig monster. The black pig monster abandoned Dong and went to fight Xiaoxing again. Dong took this opportunity to crawl up. At this moment, he finally understood the situation of the enemy being strong and we being weak, and then shouted: "Brothers, the pig monster is too powerful, retreat quickly."

"Yes, Brother Dong." Everyone responded in unison.

So they fought and retreated, and when they had completely retreated out of the swamp, they turned and ran back to the camp. The Pig King led the other pigs in pursuit, but when they saw the humans escape the swamp, they stopped chasing and stood there panting: "Hoo-hoo-hoo!"

"My king, why don't you chase us anymore? Aren't you going to destroy humans?" asked the black pig demon.

"Black pig, no, I won't chase them anymore. Just drive the human away. I'm tired, I'm dying of exhaustion." The pig head replied with an uncertain breath, "Humans run too fast. We may not be able to catch up with them even if we chase them. It's better to go back to the pig sty and sleep."

Since the boss was unwilling to chase, the pig spirits felt more relaxed and followed the pig head back to the pigsty.

In this battle, the pighead defeated the humans. It is just like a victorious cat is as happy as a tiger. The pighead returned to the pigsty triumphantly and happily. Emperor Nian was waiting in the pigsty like sitting on pins and needles. He looked up from time to time. When he saw the pighead and the pigs returning happily, he thought they had won, and his heart was finally at ease.

"Pighead, what was the result of the battle? Were the humans driven away?" Emperor Nian asked impatiently.

"Emperor Nian, I won. I fought hard this time and was stabbed several times. In the end, I bit the human and he ran away with injuries. Because they ran too fast, I couldn't catch up with them, so I had to come back to report to you." The pig head answered excitedly after winning.

"Pighead, you actually bit a human this time?" Emperor Nian asked, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.

"That's right, Emperor Nian. The old pig bit a man so hard that he bleeded and almost killed him." The pig-head boasted, shaking his head.

"Emperor Nian, Your Majesty, I also bit someone." The black pig demon said as if trying to steal the credit.

"My lord, I bit one too." Another pig demon followed suit and boasted. Then many other pig demons started to shout that they had bitten someone.

"Pighead, look, if you don't push yourself, how can you know how great your potential is?" Emperor Nian taught Pighead a lesson, then looked at the pigs and praised them, "My fellow pigs, you have done a great job. As long as you work together, victory will belong to us."

"Emperor Nian, the humans were immediately defeated and fled after being attacked by me and my people. We chased them all the way out of the swamp." Pighead answered arrogantly.

"Pighead, I didn't expect you could defeat humans. You are much more powerful than Doghead and the others!" Emperor Nian praised.

"Emperor Nian, if it weren't for the fact that humans run fast, I would have caught a few and brought them back for you to taste." The pig-headed man was praised and became even more boastful.

"Pighead, if you save me from this disaster, drive back humans and destroy them, I will be on equal footing with you and become the emperor of the world together." said Emperor Nian.

"Emperor Nian, I don't want to be the emperor of animals. I just want to sleep peacefully in my piggy bank."

"You are such a fool, you have no ideals at all. Well, then, whatever you want will happen."

"Emperor Nian, it's not that I don't have ideals, but everyone has different ideals. You think that becoming the king of the world is the greatest ideal, but my ideal is to eat and sleep well every day, without worries and happy." Pighead objected.

“Pighead, what you said makes sense. Although I have great ideals, I am being hunted by humans now and I don’t even have a place to stay.” Emperor Nian said sadly.

"Yes, Emperor Nian, if you hadn't tried every means to conquer mankind, how could you have ended up in such a mess? Okay, let's stop talking. Let's go to sleep!" Pighead yawned and fell asleep again.

Let's talk about Xiaoxing, Dong and others. They were as anxious as fish that had escaped the net and as frightened as dogs that had lost their homes. They escaped from the swamp and looked back to see that the pigs had stopped chasing them. They breathed a sigh of relief. They walked slowly towards the camp and met Feng Heyun, Lei, Dian and others on the way.

It turned out that just now, Feng, Yun and the others carried Xiaodian, Xiaosha and other fainted people out of the swamp, then put them on the ground and sprayed some water on their faces. After a while, Xiaodian, Xiaosha, Yue... and the others slowly woke up.

Feng saw that they were awake and asked excitedly, "Dian, Yue, Sha, you are all awake, are you okay?"

"Brother Feng, we're fine." Xiaodian answered and stood up shakily.

Feng saw that everyone was fine, so he said to everyone: "Brothers, since everyone is fine, let's go and help Dong Ge and Xing fight the Pig King."

"Yes, Brother Feng." Yun and the others agreed. They had just taken a few steps back when they ran into Dong Hexing and others who had fled back in defeat.

Dong saw that they were about to go to the pigsty, so he hurriedly called out to them, "Feng, Yun, go back quickly, go back quickly, the pig king and the pig spirit are too powerful."

"Ah? Brother Dong, are you all injured?" Feng Jiandong and many warriors were injured, and asked in disbelief.

"That's right, we suffered a great defeat this time, and we were also injured." Dong shook his head helplessly.

Seeing the usually brave Dongdu admit defeat after being injured, Feng was shocked and did not dare to ask any more questions, so he returned to the camp with everyone else.

Zhi, Hong'er, Lan'er and others found a flat place to camp. When they saw everyone returning, they hurried to greet them.

"Dong, Xing, you're back. How was the attack on the pigpen? Did you defeat the Pig King and eliminate the Nian beast?" Zhi asked.

"Uncle Zhi, hurry up and save people, many people are injured." Xiaoxing did not answer, but pointed to the people in the east, north and middle behind him and said.

"Xing, what happened? Why are so many people injured?" Zhi was shocked when he saw this.

"Uncle Zhi, when we first arrived at the swamp, we found that there were mountains of pig manure and the stench was overwhelming. The stench was disgusting and very unpleasant. Dozens of people were poisoned and fainted before we even reached the muddy quagmire in the middle. So I advised Brother Dong to retreat first, but Brother Dong insisted on attacking. At this time, the Pig King led the pig spirits to fight. Those pig spirits were thick-skinned and invulnerable to swords and guns, but we were blocked by the poisonous gas and the mud. Although everyone fought hard, we were still defeated and more than dozens of people were injured. Seeing that the situation was not good, I hurriedly told Brother Dong to retreat, and the group escaped back." Xiaoxing recounted what had happened in detail.

Zhi checked the wounded and found more than 60 people injured. Zhi looked at the wounded and said sadly: "In my more than 50 years of hunting experience, I have never seen so many wounded. Dong, you didn't listen to Xing's advice and attacked blindly, which led to this. It's all your fault!"

"Uncle Zhi, I underestimated those pigs. It's all my fault." Dong covered his injured thigh, full of regret.

"Uncle Zhi, things have come to this point. There is no point in pursuing responsibility. Please just treat everyone as soon as possible." Xiaoxing said anxiously.

"Yeah." Zhi nodded, and then said to Xiaoxing, Chen, Yue and others: "Xing, take a few uninjured people to get some water and help them clean their wounds. I will go collect herbs now."

"Yes, Uncle Zhi." Xiaoxing replied.

Xiaoxing led Chen, Yue, Hong'er, Lan'er and others to fetch water from the river with a gourd, and then cleaned the wounds of the injured warriors such as Dong, Bei, Zhong, Hai, etc. Some of these wounded were bitten by the pig monster, and some were stabbed by the pig monster's fangs. Among them, Bei and Hai were the most seriously injured - Bei's calf was bitten to pieces, and the other thigh was also stabbed by the pig monster's fangs. Hai's abdomen was stabbed by the pig monster's fangs, and a big hole was almost pushed out of his intestines.

Xiaoxing fetched some water and came to Bei's side, saying to him, "Brother Bei, I'll help you clean your wound first, you have to bear with it."

"Xing, go ahead and wash me. I'm a man and I'm not afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of the pain?" Bei raised his hand and motioned Xiaoxing to start.

There was a lot of pig manure and dirt on Bei's wound. As soon as Xiaoxing poured water on it, Bei grimaced in pain, but he endured it without making a sound until the wound was cleaned.

After a busy period, everyone finally cleaned up the wounds. At this time, Zhi came back with some herbs, crushed them, and then applied them to the wounded one by one and bandaged them.

After the last wounded were treated, it was already dark. Everyone lit a bonfire and began to prepare dinner. The moon was bright and beautiful, and Zhi sat on a big rock, looking in the direction of the pigsty with a frown on his face. Old Yang had come to call him for dinner three times, but he still didn't move as if he had turned a deaf ear. Seeing Zhi like this, Xiaoxing, Chen, Yue, Hong'er, Lan'er and others took a portion of roasted sweet potato and roasted rabbit meat to Zhi and said to him, "Uncle Zhi, you must be very hungry, eat something quickly."

"Xing, being hungry is a small matter, but attacking the pig nest is a big deal." Zhi took the food and put it on the ground, looking at Xiaoxing, Chen and Yue and said, "This pig nest is filled with poisonous gas and mud. With my hunting experience of more than fifty years, it may be difficult to defeat those ferocious pigs."
