Bai Yan and others reacted quickly, and when they saw them sitting on the ground, they quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in their hands, and ran towards the place where the sound came from with gleaming eyes.
Before Li Yuan and Wang Can could react, Li Qinghua and others also put down their bowls and chopsticks, took out their hoes and shovels and followed them.
Old Man Li was a little worried. After running for two steps, he turned back to warn Li Yuan and Wang Can.
"Yuan Niang, it's a wild boar. There should be several of them from the sound. Take Can Niang back and call someone."
When Li Yuan heard about the wild boar, her heart twitched subconsciously, and then she reacted with a bright smile on her face.
She pulled Wang Can, who was still unresponsive, and replied to Old Man Li: "Okay, Master, we will go back and call for help right away. Bai Yan and Zhou Zi are here, so remember to stay away from you and Uncle Hua."
Old Man Li didn't reply, he just held the hoe and followed Li Qinghua and others.
These people are old, even if they can still do the work in the fields, they still know the severity of the wild boar.
The reason why I followed him was simply that I wanted to help when I needed help.
After all, they all have weapons at hand.
Because of the arrival of the wild boar, no one could care about eating at the moment. There were many half-eaten dishes and chopsticks on the ground.
Li Yuan grabbed Wang Can who had reacted and ran towards the bamboo forest.
After running for a minute or two and seeing someone working on the edge of the bamboo forest, they shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Wild boar, does anyone want wild boar?"
"There are wild boars. Come and hunt them. They are all meat. You can eat them wherever you want!"
Not to mention, both Li Yuan and Wang Can have very large lung capacity, and their words are full of meat.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, someone immediately ran towards them.
And the people who came were men, women, old and young.
"Yuan Niang, where is the meat?"
"Sister, where is the wild boar? Where is the wild boar?"
Running at the front was Li Rui and Li Shu's man Wu Daguang.
They all had hoes in their hands and looked excited when they ran over.
When Li Yuan saw them running over, she and Wang Can turned around and ran back.
While running, she replied: "Second brother, eldest brother-in-law, quickly, take everyone to the stream. There are several wild boars, Ye and Uncle Hua are there. Bai Yan and Zhou Zi are also there." "
The men, women, and children who originally followed were all tidying up the bamboo forest.
At this time, when they heard that there were several wild boars, the bold people immediately followed Li Yuan and the others with hoes, wood chopping knives and other equipment.
The timid ones, while turning back to call people, also started to discuss how to make wild boar meat delicious.
There are more than 800 people among them. Even if a wild boar only weighs more than 300 kilograms, then even three wild boars would weigh a thousand kilograms.
After removing the internal organs, pig blood, pig bones, etc., and dividing it among the people who gave the effort, everyone can get half a catty of the rest.
Thinking like this, everyone felt happy, and they even felt more motivated to clean up the bamboo forest than before.
As for those who were preparing to cook, they originally only planned to continue eating sweet potatoes, but they also switched to making pancakes or braised rice.
Since there is meat, they plan to have a good meal!
As soon as Li Yuan and Wang Can ran back to the edge of the stream, they saw Bai Yan, Zhou Zi and others, all dressed in blood, dealing with the wild boar with serious faces.
As for her father and the others, holding hoes and shovels in their hands, they ran and gave the dizzy wild boar a beating from time to time.
Seeing this situation, everyone ran over to help without anyone asking for help.
The more people there are, the greater the strength. The people who come are basically strong laborers.
In addition, Bai Yan and the others had knocked down one before, so within half an hour, four wild boars were lying on the ground.
The six Baiyan Zhouzi and the people who came to help later were okay, but the older people such as Li Qinghua and Old Man Li, their legs became weak after they relaxed!
Li Yuan saw this and supported her father, feeling angry and funny.
You said you are in your sixties and almost seventy, so why are you trying to join in?
But she didn't dare to say this in front of her father, for fear of being scolded by the unconvinced old man later.
Because four wild boars suddenly appeared, the people in Lijia'ao were even happier than during the Chinese New Year.
Li Qinghua, the village head and clan leader, also calmed down while everyone was busy covering up the smell of blood.
He glanced around at the wild boars that were being carried together on the ground, his face looking solemn as never before.
"Don't be too happy! Four adult wild boars appeared today. I think there must be quite a few wild boars on this mountain. But I don't know if it's because our arrival has disturbed the tranquility of this forest. Okay, let’s pack these up quickly and go back to the bamboo forest.”
Someone looked at the wild boar on the ground and asked, "Li Zhang, how do you divide this pork?"
"After the killing, the people who contributed will be given ten kilograms of meat for each person. The rest will be half a kilogram for each person. As for the pig bones and offal, go to each house and share some, and make pig-killing rice yourself. But I suggest, Two or three families should work together to prevent you from lighting the fire while I am lighting the fire. What if the forest catches fire? Also, we must save some water."
Speaking of water, Li Qinghua remembered what he brought people here for, and immediately saw him reaching out and naming a dozen or so good workers in the village.
"You guys stay here and dig the puddle in the stream deep and big first. We will have to use this to make up for the water we will use later when we kill the pigs for cooking."
"yes!"
Because there is pork and pig-killing rice to eat, the people who work are particularly motivated.
Bai Yan and others were a little embarrassed when they heard that one person divided ten pounds of meat first.
They can only roast it, but in the wild, they always roast pheasants, hares and the like. There has never been anything like this wild boar meat.
When I added it, I had already given all my rations or the money for the rations to Li Yuan, so even if I took the wild boar meat, it would still be given to her.
It's just that it's a hot day and the food is not stored regularly. The six of them are equal to sixty pounds of meat. It's impossible to eat it all in one day...
Li Yuan still didn't know the dilemma of Bai Yan and others. She glanced at the bowls and chopsticks placed on the ground before everyone finished eating, and couldn't help but sigh.
She was wrong, she should have put it in a bamboo tube or bowl.
So many people came at once, and no one paid attention to the bowls on the floor, so they were kicked over and many of them were broken.
The uneaten rice noodles in the bowl flowed all over the floor.
What a pity for these grains!
Fortunately, both the big iron pot and the basket were still there, which was a blessing in misfortune.
Li Yuan's rice noodles and pancakes were well made, and Bai Yan, Zhou Zi and others were not short of oil and water in their stomachs, so after a little hesitation, they did not wait to eat the pig-killing rice, and did not hesitate at all to see who had the intact bowl on the ground. Yes, eat as soon as you pick it up.
It's just that there aren't that many intact bowls and chopsticks, and there are still some in the basket. Those who haven't eaten have scooped up the food in the pot and continued to cook.
