"Wild boars are out of the mountains! Wild boars are out of the mountains!"

"Everyone be careful!"

At first, a few people were shouting and running around in the street. Since it was dinner time, everyone in the town was at home, and soon the whole town of Sun was boiling. Men rushed out of their homes, holding flashlights, leading dogs, carrying farm tools such as shoulder poles, and rushed to the mountains behind.

"Wild boar?" Su Ming almost laughed out loud. He felt that his mouth was a little bland and wanted to get some wild game to satisfy his teeth. Then someone came to his door?

If it was another animal, even a poisonous snake or crocodile, Su Ming might teach it a lesson, and he might even take it in as his subordinate. But it was the wild boar that brought Su Ming a huge psychological shadow since he was a child!

That year, his father had just passed away, and Su Ming was still a half-grown child. He saw that his mother was working two jobs in the county to support herself, which was too hard, and he wanted to help his mother share some of the burden. So it took half a month to open up about an acre of land on the hillside.

A kid who was only a little kid, carrying a hoe, had a hard time, but he managed to cultivate an acre of land. You can imagine how hard it was. When his mother found out, she cried secretly. Later, she taught him how to farm. The small acre of land not only had Su Ming's sweat, but also many of his good memories.

Just when the harvest was about to begin, one afternoon, two half-grown wild boars appeared in front of Su Ming. In front of them, they turned the acre of land upside down and ruined it all!

Su Ming rushed up and beat and bit them, but how could he beat the wild boars? He was knocked over on the spot, and was stepped on by the wild boars like sandbags. Fortunately, the two wild boars were not big, only about 30 or 40 kilograms. Later, the second uncle brought people to save his life in time.

Since then, Su Ming has been itching to bite wild boars when he sees them. He doesn't even get close to the two wild boars raised in the zoo.

In Su Ming's opinion, if tigers are overlords, wolves are swordsmen, and crocodiles are killers, then wild boars are hooligans who bully innocent people!

Not only Su Ming, but all the farmers in the town hate wild boars. This guy is too bad at wasting food. Not only does he eat, but he also turns the whole field upside down. All the crops around him will be trampled to death. A wild boar can easily destroy a large area of ​​land in one night.

"His second uncle, what's going on? Where did the wild boar come from? Did anyone get hurt?" Mother Su was also alarmed, followed him out the door, and grabbed the second uncle who was passing by.

The second uncle was holding a hoe more than one meter long in his hand, and said hurriedly: "Something happened to the old Gu family. There is no time to say more. Su Ming, don't just watch, go with the second uncle!"

"Okay!" Su Ming agreed without thinking, and was about to leave with Su Meng.

All men in the town have the responsibility to protect their homes. Mother Su did not stop them. She took a hoe from behind the door and handed it to Su Ming, saying, "Bring something with you. Be careful!"

"Got it. Mom, you're alone at home, so keep the door closed." Su Ming took the hoe and ran with the second uncle towards the farmland on the mountain.

As the second uncle ran, he shouted to both sides, "Wild boars are coming. All the men in the family come out to help. The women stay at home. Close the doors and gates tightly. Be careful of wild boars entering the town and hurting people!"

More and more people ran towards the farmland. There were dozens of people who kept joining. Almost all the adult men in the town came, and there were more than a dozen dogs.

The stray dog ​​Da Huang also joined the team. His chrysanthemums inexplicably hurt all night on New Year's Eve, but today, on New Year's Day, he got a lot of delicious food, big fat meat and other things from various families, and he was full of strength.

Although there were many people and they brought dogs, the people who went to hunt wild boars looked a little nervous.

Wild boars and domestic pigs are completely different creatures. Domestic pigs are gentle and lazy, with fat all over their bodies; while wild boars are irritable and fierce by nature, with tendon meat that is extremely explosive. Not only are they extremely powerful, but they are also thick-skinned and often roll in the mud. Their originally rough skin is covered with a thick layer of protective shell. Their short fangs are as sharp as blades and are also powerful weapons.

Tigers sometimes hunt wild boars, but the reality is that a wild boar weighing two or three hundred kilograms can often knock a tiger to death, while the tiger's fangs and claws often cannot do anything to a wild boar.

A wild boar is almost equivalent to a weakened version of a rhinoceros. If you encounter several crazy wild boars at the same time, tigers, lions, dogs and bears will have to retreat. There is an old saying in the mountains: "To fight a tiger, you need courage, and to fight a wild boar, you need a board." The "board" here refers to the coffin board.

Although tigers are fierce, they are afraid of people in their bones, but wild boars are different. They are not afraid of people. Even a newly born wild boar will attack people when it sees people even if it is not hungry at all, so it is life-threatening to kill wild boars.

On the way there, Su Ming learned about the incident from his second uncle.

The greenhouse vegetables planted by Lao Gutou on the hillside are to be sold to his Baoxian for engagement next year. He patrols the fields every day like a treasure, for fear that wild animals will harm the crops.

Especially in winter, when animals in the mountains lack food, Lao Gutou simply built a shed in the field and lived in the mountain at night with a local dog.

Today, the third aunt went to his house to propose marriage. Lao Gutou was happy and drank a few more glasses. He slept at home for a while. When he sobered up, he went back to the mountain and saw that there were more than a dozen black shadows of different sizes in the field. They looked like wild boars, and the greenhouse was ruined.

Not only the lettuce and cauliflower from Lao Gutou's family, but also the lettuce and cauliflower from the widow's third aunt's family next door, and the cabbage and radish from Cheng Muba's family were all affected by the disaster.

Lao Gutou was frightened at the time. If there were only one or two small wild boars, he could drive them away, but with so many wild boars, if they became aggressive while eating, it would kill him. So he hurried down the mountain and returned to the town to report the news, which led to the scene just now.

"Hey, second uncle, I remember that every winter in the town, farmers would be given guns to go up to the mountains to hunt wild boars, right?" Su Mingqi asked.

"It's not like the state has stipulated anything, the protection law says that wild boar is a nationally protected animal. Starting from this year, we won't hunt it!" The second uncle said angrily: "Damn it, no one can eat it, and you still protect it? pig!"

Su Ming said with a smile. It's interesting to say that wild boars are such powerful creatures, they can fight, feed, and have excellent adaptability to the environment. A group of wild boars together has almost no natural enemies, and even tigers can't do anything to them.

However, when they encountered humans, they were almost exterminated within 20 to 30 years, and became a second-level protected animal in the country.

As Su Ming ran, he directed a stream of spiritual power to Hai Dongqing in the sky. With his eyes focused, he looked towards the fields in the distance, and saw that in the large field on the hillside, there were indeed a dozen large and small black shadows, divided into several pieces.

In a field in the middle, several greenhouses had been completely destroyed. They fell sparsely on the ground, and all the plants inside were ruined. There were several fields nearby that were also badly damaged. Cabbage, radish, cauliflower, etc. were dug out of the ground and trampled to pieces.

Seven or eight little wild boars were rushing around the field with their heads lowered like bulldozers, as if they were on stimulants. They didn't know whether they were playing or doing something else.

"My mother, my second senior brother ran out!"

When Su Ming saw those big wild boars, especially the biggest one, Su Ming couldn't help but scream in surprise!

It's just a small wild boar, about the same size as a dog.

But there were four adult wild boars, and they were frighteningly big. The largest one weighed almost six to seven hundred pounds at least! Looking from Hai Dongqing's field of vision, it's like the Zhu Ganghye in Journey to the West has revealed his true form!

You know, wild boars grow the slowest. A domestic pig can easily gain one or two hundred pounds in one year, but a wild boar cannot grow that much in two or three years. Su Ming had never even heard of a wild boar that weighed six to seven hundred kilograms. Such a large wild boar was probably as rare as the Siberian tiger. It could only be found in real deep mountains and old forests, in inaccessible places.

The remaining three large wild boars are also very impressive in size, probably weighing three to four hundred pounds. An average wild boar is considered a big pig weighing 200 kilograms.

As they spoke, a large group of people soon left the village and arrived outside the fields on the hillside.

The three victims' families had been waiting on the mountainside for a long time. The large army of townspeople hadn't arrived just now, so they didn't dare to drive away the wild boar rashly. When they saw the people coming, the widow's third aunt sat down on the ground and beat her chest. Crying loudly: "What can we do now? I am a widow and my family can only rely on this to survive. What can we do next year?"

She works as a matchmaker and does fiber-stretching, which is just a 'hobby' to make a little money. Her real source of livelihood is actually farming.

"Aba, Aba...ahhh...Aba..." Chen Mute was speechless. He beat his chest and pointed at the dancing people in the field and made wild gestures, his eyes red with anxiety. He was a single man and a mute, so he relied on the crops in the fields to save some money to live.

Lao Gutou squatted on the ground, holding a dry tobacco pole and sighed, "Hey, why did I drink so many cups? If I came two hours earlier, I could still keep some harvest... Hey, it's all my fault for being greedy... ..." As he said that, he slapped himself.

Gu Baoxian squatted on the side and advised: "Dad, don't be like this. Who would have thought that these wild boars would come out during the Chinese New Year..."

"Hey, what are you going to do with the money for your engagement? Your little brother has to go to school next year... What are you going to do with all this!" Lao Gu was so worried that he almost cried.

"Don't worry, Dad, you're not sure about kissing me anymore. If you go work and make money, you have to send your little brother to school no matter what!" Gu Baoxian gritted his teeth and said.

It seems like a long time passed, but in fact it only lasted a few words. The second uncle was quite prestigious in the town. He held up a hoe and commanded everyone: "Quick, quick, quick, surround us, don't get away from these people who are killing thousands of people." The beast!”

Dozens of people rushed around, like iron barrels, surrounding the large field. Dozens of flashlights were flashing around in the field, and more than a dozen native dogs barked wildly.

Such a large array had already alarmed the wild boars in the field. The wild boars, large and small, stopped eating and let out rough gasps at the crowd around them. They might go crazy at any time.

"Don't surround us, disperse!" Su Ming yelled.
