The Second Sister of a Farmer's Family's Path to Imperial Destiny
Chapter 49 Saving the Wolf
Guo Xin taught the two of them boxing for more than ten years, and also taught them some archery techniques during that time.
Guo Xin thought that the results of his training over the past few days should be put into practice, so he decided to take the two men up the mountain early in the morning to try their luck and see if they could hunt.
It is winter and the activities of wild animals have decreased, so there is no need to worry too much about safety issues.
They carry bamboo bows and arrows and several sharp sickles on their backs, which should be enough to cope with the mountains in winter.
In the winter forests, the ground is covered with a thin and white blanket of snow. The trees have lost their former luxuriance in this cold season, and their branches and leaves have withered. Occasionally, squirrels can be seen jumping happily in the woods, moving flexibly between the branches.
Guo Zhi carried her bow and arrows on her back, holding a sickle in her hand, and hopped towards the mountains. Even now, she still couldn't believe it: "Sister! Are we really going into the mountains to hunt?"
This was her first time going into the mountains to hunt. In the past, she only dug some wild vegetables on the edge of the mountain and did not dare to go deep into the mountain. During this period, under the guidance of her second sister, her body seemed to be much stronger than before, but could she really go into the mountains to hunt at this level?
Guo Ruo next to her was obviously not as lively as Guo Zhi. She kept her lips tightly closed, her brows furrowed, and looked around vigilantly, fearing that dangerous animals would approach. She didn't believe that the boxing and archery skills she had learned for only a dozen days were enough for hunting.
"Your recent training is sufficient, you can try hunting. If you are lucky, you may be able to catch a pheasant or something like that." Guo Xin said while observing the surroundings.
It had just snowed on the mountain, and the forest on the right was covered with messy plum blossom footprints.
Wild boar? Wolf? Or sika deer?
Looking at the messy footprints and a few drops of bright red blood on the ground, it seemed that a fight had just taken place, and her heart couldn't help but become nervous.
"It seems like a fight broke out among a group of animals in the west. Should we change direction and go east?" Guo Xin frowned and after careful consideration, he decided to stay in the mountains to hunt, but he needed to be careful to avoid the animals.
"Herd?"
Guo Ruo had never thought that he would encounter a herd of beasts even though he had entered the mountains in winter. If he did, wouldn't he be dead? But if he went in another direction, he wouldn't encounter them, right?
"Ah."
Guo Xin nodded. She had not expected to encounter a fight between beasts in the winter. However, if they had to go down the mountain halfway for the first time, they might develop the habit of giving up directly when faced with difficulties in the future.
After walking for a while, Guo Zhi didn't see any pheasants. She wanted to try out her archery skills. When she sparred with her elder sister at home, she always lost because of her size disadvantage. This time, she wanted to regain her confidence through hunting.
I was a little anxious and asked, "Second sister, why haven't we seen a pheasant in such a long time? Not to mention pheasants, except for a few squirrels I saw just now, I haven't seen anything else."
Guo Xin comforted him: "Hunting in winter depends on luck. You may come across other prey."
Suddenly, a sharp wind blew by the side. When she looked closely, she saw it was a wolf cub. Her intuition from her previous life told her that danger was coming!
"Hurry up and climb up the tree!" After saying that, he climbed up the tree in no time and held his breath.
Over the past ten days, Guo Ruo and his companion's lower bodies have become very strong, and climbing a tree is no problem for them.
They saw several majestic wild boars following behind them and chasing the wolves straight ahead, as if they did not see them. The thin snow on the ground where the wild boars ran was blown up, like a thin white low wall.
The running wolf cub suddenly stopped and let out a long howl, as if wanting to call its companions to come over.
The wild boars were frightened and stopped, staring at the wolves as if they had some grudge against them.
The leading wild boar made a "grunt" sound, and the remaining few immediately formed a circle around the wolf, but did not move, as if they were waiting for something.
After about an incense stick of time, the wolf's howl did not attract any of its companions, so the wild boar began to attack.
The circle surrounding the wolf cub was slowly narrowing, and the leading wild boar was the first to charge towards the wolf cub. The gray wolf was not to be outdone, and directly twisted off a piece of meat from the wild boar. The strong smell of blood spread everywhere.
The pain on its body stimulated the wild boar, making it attack more violently. Several other wild boars also took turns charging at the gray wolf and attacking it with their fangs.
The gray wolf seemed to have exhausted all its strength, its body was all red, and it howled towards the sky with a hint of sadness.
Guo Zhi looked at a small gray wolf being besieged by a group of wild boars, and listened to its cries, and felt pity.
He turned around and looked at Guo Xin, "Sister, can I go save that gray wolf?"
"Are you crazy?" Guo Xin looked at Guo Zhi in disbelief. How could the third sister be so confused? There were four wild boars below, as strong as cows. They were extremely lucky that the wild boars did not discover them.
Even if these wild boars and gray wolves had been fighting for a long time and were covered with wounds, they were not something they could afford to provoke. Didn't she know the saying "One pig, two bears, and three tigers"?
This wild boar is scary enough, not to mention there are several of them!
"Sis~ Now that the wild boar has been fighting for so long, it's not a bad idea for the three of us to ambush them in the tree first."
Guo Ruo looked at the wild boars, then at the slightly weaker gray wolf on the ground, which was covered in blood, and said, "Second sister, I think we can really kill the wild boar. If we kill it, we can take it away.
If they don't kill him and attack us, we still have our sickles, so all the training we've done during this period won't be in vain, right?"
Seeing that the wolf had not given up the resistance despite being attacked by the wild boars, Guo Xin bit the wild boars and left them covered in wounds. He tried to find a way out and sighed, saying, "Go ahead and save them if you want. This is a good opportunity to test the results of our work."
After saying that, he took the lead in raising a bamboo arrow. To catch a thief, one must first catch the leader. With so many wild boars, one must get rid of the leading one first.
He half-closed his eyes, aimed at the wild boar's eyes, pulled the bow to its full extent, exerted his strength, and "whoosh", the arrow flew out quickly and pierced the wild boar's eyes.
Without stopping for a moment, Guo Xin pulled the bow to its full extent and aimed at the other eye.
"Ah!" The wild boar rolled on the ground in pain. Seeing this opportunity, the gray wolf wanted to take it to break out of the encirclement, but the other wild boars became even more angry and rushed towards it.
Guo Ruo and Guo Zhi were not to be outdone and shot bamboo arrows one after another, but their accuracy was still poor and they only hit the back of the neck.
A few wild boars gave up the attack in pain, and turned around in a circle in a hurry. They couldn't see the enemy anymore, so they looked at the gray wolf in front of them, and vented their anger on it, using their fangs to dig a hole in it.
Guo Ruo and Guo Zhi kept shooting arrows at the wild boar, and in order to avoid them, the wild boar had to run into the mountains.
The gray wolf on the ground saw that there was only one wild boar rolling on the ground. The gray wolf, who had been hungry for a long time, did not care about the wounds on his body. He opened his mouth, tore off a large piece of meat and started to chew it.
Guo Xin and the other two did not dare to get down from the tree. They stayed there for about an incense stick of time. When they saw the gray wolf fall to the ground unconscious due to excessive blood loss and no other wild boars came over, they finally got down from the tree.
"This wolf and wild boar are both very good! One is dead and the other is about to die. I can make a lot of money by selling the good parts." Guo Xin touched the gray wolf on the ground with his sickle and saw that it had no reaction.
"Second sister! I don't want to sell the gray wolf. I want to take it home."
