At this time, from the other side of the house, two people were walking hurriedly.
Xiaomanye was in a hurry and almost tripped over a stone, but Chunfeng, who was walking behind, helped him to stand still.
When he saw the three people still on the slope, Xiao Manye breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Manye, who has always valued crops more than his life, did not feel sorry for the food this time. He just said anxiously to the three of them: "You must not mess with wild boars. If you eat the crops, you will eat them. People are important!"
Xiao Man was dissatisfied: "Master, we worked so hard to plant it, and we are about to have a harvest for a group of animals to eat... Hey!" He dropped the hatchet and sat down on the ground.
Mr. Xiaoman looked at the wild boar destroying the crops below, his face wrinkled, and he was extremely distressed: "Even if you want to drive the pig away, you have to find a way. If you rush out now, the fangs in the pig's mouth will only need one bite, and all the bones will be removed." It’s about to be cut off.”
Jiang Zhi stared at the group of wild boars eating happily, but was secretly excited in his heart: If you are happy eating my crops, don't blame me for eating your meat.
She had prepared weapons since she was preparing for the refugees to come up the mountain, but they had been lying idle in the medicine pile and had no use.
Jiang Zhi believed that those few spears were enough to kill a wild boar.
It's just that the wild boar is alert, and the pig's skin is covered with turpentine, tar and mud scab, making it difficult to penetrate easily, so other throwing methods need to be found.
Thinking of this, she said to Mr. Xiao Man: "Uncle Chang Geng, do you have any way to drive away the wild boars?"
In fact, Jiang Zhi also knows how to drive away wild boars. Generally, mountain people will beat gongs, set off firecrackers, and fireworks at night to drive away wild boars for their crops.
Now I ask Mr. Xiaoman because he wants everyone to participate. The three cobblers are like Zhuge Liang. Maybe the old farmer has a good way.
Little Man Ye said without hesitation: "You can light a fire, use a torch or a fire to drive away wild boars!"
This is a good method, but it is also very dangerous. The wild boar has an unpredictable temper and may rush towards you while holding a torch to drive it away.
"Let's dig a big hole and use a trap to trap the wild boar!" Xiao Man said.
In the past few months, Xiaoman and Xu Errui have been digging traps for rabbits.
Little Man shook his head: "If you want to trap such a big wild boar, how long do you have to dig out? I'm afraid all the corn and sorghum will be eaten by then."
Jiang Zhi has decided to use poison, but he needs other auxiliary facilities, such as the trap Xiaoman mentioned. First trap the pigs in it, and then use the poison gun.
"Now these wild boars must be driven away, otherwise the losses will be great if they let them fight! It will also help us see clearly where the wild boars are coming from." If Jiang Zhi wants to kill wild boars, he needs to confirm the wild boar's route in advance.
Of course, Mr. Xiaoman also wanted to chase the wild boars, but he still shook his head: "We can't chase them now. We have to wait until they are full and then chase them away. The wild boars are still hungry now and will fight tooth and nail to protect their food."
Compared with what Jiang Zhi saw in those videos, Xiao Manye is obviously more experienced.
So, a few people endured their heartache and kept watching a dozen wild boars tossing on the hillside. When they were full and full of food and water, and all the big and small pigs were lying in the corn field and sleeping soundly, the sky had already turned dark.
Xiao Manye led the team, while Jiang Zhi and Chunfeng held up long wooden sticks with a row of wheat straw bundles tied to them.
The three men quietly approached the wild boar not far away. Before the alert boar could make any move, they first lit the straw handle on the wooden stick.
The wheat straw was completely dry and was extremely flammable, and suddenly it burst into flames.
The three of them shook the lit fire pole and rushed towards the pigs while shouting at the top of their lungs.
The group of wild boars were suddenly bewildered by the sudden fire and sound around them. The few semi-large wild boars burst into flames and ran away in all directions.
The sow took the piglet and immediately ran into the woods. Only then did Jiang Zhi witness the speed of the piglet.
These so-called stupid pigs run wildly, leaving streaks of smoke and dust on the hillside. Even hounds may not be able to catch up.
The piglet ran away, but the boar stayed behind.
The bristles all over the body are ten centimeters long, and there are snow-white fangs outside the long mouth. He stares at everyone fiercely.
It obviously won't be scared away like this, and is trying to fight back.
At this moment, Xiao Manye threw the flaming wheat bundle at the boar, and then Jiang Zhi and Chunfeng threw all the large fire sticks they were holding.
Suddenly, sparks from the wheat straw on the stick flew everywhere, smoke and dust billowed, and a majestic wall of fire rushed towards the wild boar.
No matter how unruly he is, he still can't escape the law that wild animals are afraid of fire, let alone three rows of fire.
The boar was frightened by the sudden wall of fire and backed away.
Fear outweighed fighting spirit. With a full stomach, it no longer wanted to fight. It turned around and rushed towards the direction where the pigs disappeared.
The wild boar ran away, and Jiang Zhi and others felt their hands and feet trembling, and their backs were covered in cold sweat.
It seems easy to chase wild boars, but it takes a lot of courage to actually face a 500-pound wild boar and feel the evil and coldness.
When I threw the wall of fire just now, I used a cucumber as a mallet. I just bought and sold it with one hammer. Once I threw it out, it was gone.
Although he still holds a sickle and a hoe in his hand, it is equivalent to bare hands, but it only embolden himself.
For a boar that weighs 500 pounds and weighs as much as a calf, a chop is like giving it a shot of stimulant.
The wild boar only needs one collision to break his bones and kill him.
The scene was cleared after the pigs ran away.
In one afternoon, the pigs almost destroyed a large area of crops.
Although the crops were sparse, the situation still caused heavy losses to the two families who were already short of food.
Little Man held up the corn stalk that had been trampled by wild boars and was broken into several sections. He looked at the tender corn stalks that had been chewed to pieces and stamped his feet, scolding the wild boars.
Wild boars eat half of their food and throw away the other half. They eat and spoil everything, which is extremely wasteful.
And as long as they know there is food here, they will come again during this time.
When it got dark, Xiaoman and Xu Errui, who had gone out early, came back.
"Sir, Aunt Jiang, those wild boars came over the pass at the back."
Xiaoman was sitting on a tall tree not far away, watching the direction of the wild boar.
Worried about misunderstanding, Xu Errui and he each guarded a hillside.
It was Xiaoman who could see where he was coming from.
Back mountain pass!
The hilltop where the two families are now is still close to Xujiacun. If you enter from the ditch where you catch crabs and snails, you will be on the other side of the mountain.
The ditch is at a low point, which is naturally the pass.
"Xiao Man, can you see it clearly? The wild boars came over the pass and came from the ditch?"
Jiang Zhi suddenly became energetic after discovering the wild boar route.
Xiao Man nodded vigorously: "I must have seen it clearly. I was afraid of making a mistake. I even went over the pass to have a look and saw those wild boars entering the forest and coming back down the mountain."
It was actually a coincidence that we found a wild boar today. Xiaoman originally wanted to go to that stream to see if he could still catch crabs.
Before anyone arrived, a group of wild boars were seen rolling in the mud next to the pond.
He grew up in this mountain and had long known how powerful the wild boar was. Seeing that the situation was not good, he calmly and quickly retreated to report the news.
As a result, the three of them watched the tired wild boars enter the crop fields.
Otherwise, everyone has been beating flax and picking cotton these days, and there is no time to see the situation in other places. I am afraid it will take two or three days to find out.
Jiang Zhi asked where was the other side of the mountain?
