Chapter 8 Wild Boar
Author: Suisui
"Bang--"
A loud noise echoed in the deep mountains, dust flew everywhere, and several birds fled.
The smell of blood drifted into Su Mo's nose with the wind. She breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the ground, feeling that her hands and feet were getting weak.
This body is really too weak.
After relaxing, her body was aching everywhere, especially when she fell down. Her back hit the stone, which was probably worn out. Sweat seeped through the wound, and she gritted her teeth in pain.
After a while, she regained her composure, sat up with her hands on the ground, turned the machete into an iron rod, supported herself to stand up, and then looked towards the wild boar.
Just like what 258 said, the products produced by the system must be high-quality. The wild boar with rough skin and thick flesh fell to the ground without making a sound, and large amounts of blood gushed out from the pig's belly.
Su Mo walked over and took a closer look with an expressionless face. There was a neat incision on the entire stomach, and even the internal organs inside were broken.
Su Mo looked left and right, shook his head, feeling a little pity.
The smell of blood around him was too strong, and the sky was a little dark. If he didn't leave, there might be other dangers.
"258, can you help get the wild boar to the foot of the mountain?"
Su Mo decisively contacted the system.
The small ball of light flashed, and after a while, he said: "No, but you can use one point in exchange for system help.
Solve the follow-up problems of the wild boar incident.
For example, villagers asked about the origin of wild boars..."
The system suddenly became smarter, and Su Mo was still a little uncomfortable with it, but it was only one point, so it didn't seem like a big loss.
After all, I can get ten points for completing this mission.
And if you really took the wild boar back like this, and the villagers saw it and asked about it, you can't say that you killed it yourself, right?
Everyone knew how fragile the original owner was, and if he could suddenly kill a wild boar, he would probably be arrested as a monster.
"Okay, one point is one point!"
Su Mo's brain was working rapidly, he nodded in agreement, and successfully became a debtor.
"Ding, the points have been deducted. The host's current points are: minus one."
The system moved very quickly. After searching for a while, Su Mo only felt a white light flash in front of his eyes, and the next second, a big pit appeared in front of him.
There were sharp wooden thorns in the pit. The wild boar was already lying in the pit, with its stomach pierced by the wooden thorns, and the blood dyed the ground red...
"System help has been completed. The host can go down the mountain to find villagers to help."
Su Mo: "..."
Was she being ripped off?
Forget it, all the points were deducted. She ground her molars and said, "I'll go down the mountain. The wild boar won't be eaten by other beasts, right?"
If this is the case, then the gains outweigh the losses.
Fortunately, 258 promised: "Host, don't worry, you won't lose even one hair."
Su Mo then slowly walked down the mountain. There were still blood stains from the wild boar on his body, and his hair was messy.
As soon as I entered the village, I was surrounded by people.
Although the people in Luoshan Village don't like Su Mo, they are from their village after all. If he is bullied, they must help him, otherwise he will be looked down upon by other villages.
"Gu family, what's wrong with you?"
"Do we need to call the doctor?"
"..."
The villagers' eyes averted slightly, but the sincerity in their words could not be false. Su Mo stood there in a daze.
It had been a long time since she had heard anyone's caring greetings.
In the apocalyptic environment, everyone just wants to live. Living... can have a future... even if there is no hope for that future.
258 Hiding in Su Mo's head, not only can she see everything she sees, but she can also feel Su Mo's emotions keenly.
Feeling at a loss, confused, panicked...and a little bit...touched.
He coughed lightly, like a heartless machine.
"Host, your mission still has twenty hours and thirty-two minutes."
Su Mo immediately broke away from the unfamiliar emotions. She smiled gently. Her palm-sized face was pale, and the broken hair on her forehead was wet with sweat and stuck to her face. She had a fragmented beauty that made people feel pity for her.
Just what he said shocked everyone.
"I dug a trap in the mountains, and a wild boar fell out of it. Can anyone help me pull it out?
I don’t want everyone’s work to be in vain. Everyone who goes there will be given a bowl of pork.”
After a while, a murmur came from the crowd:
"This guy from the Gu family talks so nicely, why do I feel so uncomfortable?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the person who said this was slapped on the back of the head by the wife next to him.
"What are you talking about? Didn't you hear what the little girl of the Gu family said today?
Mrs. Su had a dream about Gu Dalang yesterday. Gu Dalang asked Mrs. Su to take good care of her three children.
They have such a good relationship as husband and wife, will Mr. Su not listen?"
"Hey, just say it, why did you hit me?"
The two of them thought they kept their voices low, but they didn't know that Su Mo had already heard it, and they felt slightly relieved.
It seems that this move is still useful. How can a child really keep any secrets, especially since Gu Xingnian has been looking forward to maternal love for a long time and now that it has finally come true, she naturally cannot help showing off to her friends of the same age.
She slowly raised her head, and everyone around her had doubtful looks on their faces. They were hesitating whether they should believe Su Mo or not.
Su Mo knew that it would be difficult for the villagers here to accept that she had changed, but she didn't want to explain too much. Sometimes, too much explanation would lead to mistakes.
Time will slowly prove to them that no matter what, Su Mo in Luoshan Village has become her.
The most important thing right now is the wild boars in the mountains.
"I'm not lying, my clothes are still stained with wild boar blood, and look at the wild boar hair!"
She stretched her hand into the air, then opened her palm, and there were some black hairs in the palm of her hand.
Although the villagers had never gone hunting in the mountains, they still recognized wild boar hair, and everyone finally believed it.
The villagers immediately became agitated.
Because Luoshan Village is close to the sea, the water in the nearby fields is salty, making it impossible to grow anything.
There is fresh water on the mountain, but there are a lot of stones, so it is very troublesome to open up wasteland. Some people do not believe in evil, so they dug a piece of land at the foot of the mountain. It was less than an inch of land, and they carried seven or eight loads of stones and planted them in late spring.
Some beans, but they can't survive.
It’s time-consuming and labor-intensive, so it’s better to just go out to sea and fish.
The fish caught are sold directly to restaurants, and the money earned is used to buy things like rice and noodles. Adding in other expenses, the money earned from catching fish is enough for food and clothing.
They don't buy meat, and fish is also meat.
However, no matter how delicious the fish or meat is, they will get tired of it if they eat too much. However, since they don’t have enough money and they don’t know how to hunt, they have no choice but to be greedy or buy some meat during the holidays.
Now if you help me up the mountain, you can share a bowl of wild boar meat. It would be strange if you are not excited.
But they didn't like to take advantage. Some people went directly to the village chief.
"The village chief is here, everyone be quiet."
The person who invited the village chief was a relative of the village chief, named Chen Cihai. His son Chen Qingzhou was one of Gu Xingnian's few playmates.
He is like a peacemaker in the village on weekdays.
"Gu family, is it possible to ask the village chief to make arrangements for you?"
Su Mo glanced at the village chief's legs, his eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded: "It should be."
Chen Cihai was a little surprised. Today he heard the little girl of the Gu family praising her mother for getting better today. He even sneered at it. Now it seems that it is true.
