The Brilliant Life of a Post-Apocalyptic Female Boss Reborn at 70

The three hotheaded youths didn't bother to ask around, and headed straight for the largest mountain in sight, taking more than half an hour to reach its foot.

Looking at the towering mountains before her, Liu Mengting couldn't help but gasp and gradually stopped in her tracks.

"Mengting, why did you stop? Don't you want to eat meat anymore?"

"Sister Yiyi, I'm suddenly feeling a little scared. This mountain is so big, there must be wild boars inside, maybe even jackals, tigers, leopards, or even bears. Should we go back?"

"Fang Yi, what do you think?"

Seeing Liu Mengting's frightened look, Fang Yi also felt a little scared. "How about... how about we go back? Or I can call Wu Lei along; it'll be safer that way!"

As a former superpowered expert, how could Xin Yi be cowardly?

"Alright then, you two go back, I'll go for a stroll in the mountains by myself!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mengting became extremely anxious, "How can this be? We can't even guarantee our safety with the three of us together, let alone you alone!"

After saying that, she took a deep breath and said, "Then we'll go with you!"

Seeing Liu Mengting's mix of fear and loyalty, Xin Yi hugged her tightly.

"Don't be afraid, stick with me, I'll guarantee your safety. I'll even get you some roast chicken and roast rabbit later, how wonderful!"

"Hehehe, Sister Yiyi, now that you say that, I don't seem so scared anymore. Shall we continue?"

Xin Yi put her other arm around Fang Yi and said, "Sisters, it's so good! Triple pound, roasted rabbit, so awesome! Hahaha!"

The three sisters happily headed up the mountain.

In those days, food was scarce for every household. In their spare time, people would go to the mountains in groups of three or five to dig for wild vegetables and hunt wild game. As a result, the sheep on the outskirts of the mountains were almost sheared off. After a quick look, Xin Yi resolutely pulled the two of them to continue deeper into the mountains.

As the surrounding environment became eerily quiet, Liu Mengting's legs began to tremble uncontrollably, and nothing she said about delicious food worked.

"Sister Yiyi, there seems to be something moving over there!"

Xin Yi looked in the direction Liu Mengting was pointing and exclaimed, "Don't move!"

The two quickly stopped and held their breath, afraid of disturbing Xin Yi.

Xin Yi slowed her pace and quietly approached. She saw clearly that it was a pheasant, and moved her feet even more carefully.

With the pheasant within reach, Xin Yi leaped forward. The idea was wonderful, but reality was cruel; the pheasant flapped its wings and flew away.

"You all wait for me where you are!"

As she spoke, Xin Yi chased after the direction in which the pheasant was flapping its wings. She also took out the iron nail that she had forgotten about, aimed at the direction in which the pheasant was flapping its wings, and injected the lightning power in her body into the iron nail. With a "whoosh", the iron nail successfully struck the pheasant.

The pheasant collapsed instantly, its body twitching continuously. It soon went still, accompanied by wisps of smoke.

"Damn it, I think I used too much force!"

Xin Yi ran over to the pheasant, picked it up and took a look. Fortunately, she hadn't used too much force, and the feathers weren't singed!

Seeing Xin Yi return carrying a plump pheasant, Liu Mengting and her companion wanted to shout with excitement, but considering they were deep in the mountains, they had to suppress their excitement.

"Sister Yiyi, what a huge pheasant! You're amazing!"

Liu Mengting sniffed, "But why does this pheasant smell burnt?"

"No, I didn't smell anything," Xin Yi retorted.

Liu Mengting was a little puzzled. "Sister Fang Yi, come and smell it!"

Fang Yi leaned closer to the pheasant and smelled it. "It definitely has a burnt smell!"

"Really? Maybe my nose is blocked. This pheasant might have been caught in a fire recently and escaped here. Hmm, that's it!"

As Xin Yi spoke, she secretly resolved that she must control her strength next time!

The two readily accepted Xin Yi's explanation, as there were no further possibilities.

Liu Mengting took the pheasant and saw the nail stuck in its wing. She asked in confusion, "Sister Yiyi, your nail only hit the wing, not a fatal spot. Did this pheasant die of fright? It's even more timid than me, hahaha!"

It has to be said that Liu Mengting was right; her own courage was only comparable to that of a pheasant.

"Shall we continue?"

With their success, the group became even more enthusiastic, and soon they caught two more wild rabbits. This time, they killed them instantly with a headshot, without even a burnt smell.

Xin Yi has always been proud of her self-control and adaptability, and now she no longer needs to rack her brains to find excuses.

Although Xin Yi was the one who did all the work, they still traveled a long way. So the three of them found a big tree and leaned against it to rest.

Perhaps she was too tired, because Liu Mengting became drowsy in no time, which was truly enviable.

Xin Yi was about to take a nap when suddenly she heard a strange sound faintly in her ears, and she immediately became alert.

Listening carefully again, she exclaimed, "Mengting, Fangyi, hurry up and climb the tree! Something big is coming!"

Liu Mengting woke up with a start, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"Stop talking nonsense and get on with it!"

Fang Yi was quite agile and climbed up the tree in a few quick movements. She reached out to pull Liu Mengting up, but Liu Mengting was too fat and couldn't get up.

Xin Yi had no choice but to use all her strength to help Fang Yi get Liu Mengting up the tree.

"Don't come down, and don't make any noise. Don't affect my performance!"

As the noise drew closer, the big guy finally revealed its true form: a fat wild boar. Looking at its long tusks, Liu Mengting covered her mouth in fear, tears streaming down her face.

Xin Yi stared at the wild boar with a serious expression, and quietly took out four iron nails. She only had four chances to subdue the wild boar, so she had to plan carefully.

Seeing the wild boar charging towards the tree, Xin Yi immediately realized that she couldn't let it crash into the tree, otherwise it would shake the two people on the tree off, and the situation would be dangerous.

The wild boar moved, swinging its tusks as it charged. When it was half a meter away from Xin Yi, Xin Yi leaped onto its back, took out an iron nail, infused it with lightning power, and plunged it straight into the boar's spine.

The wild boar immediately stopped and rolled on the spot. Xin Yi took the opportunity to use the boar's back for leverage and landed steadily behind it.

The wild boar seemed to have gained intelligence and knew that Xin Yi was not someone to be trifled with, so it decided to attack the two people in the tree.

Xin Yi wasn't about to give it a chance. She flashed to the side of the wild boar, and a nail imbued with lightning power shot out, completely piercing the boar's eye. The intense pain caused the boar to let out a mournful cry!

Xin Yi thought to herself, "This is bad!"

In these deep mountains and forests, where there are wild boars, there are bound to be other ferocious beasts. If the wild boars make such a noise, they could easily attract a few other wild animals, and all three of us would be injured. We must act quickly and decisively.

Taking advantage of the wild boar's frenzy, Xin Yi quietly approached and shot a nail imbued with lightning power directly into the boar's head.

"Oh!"

After being shot in the head, the wild boar gradually slowed down, let out a few weak cries, and collapsed instantly.
