With the largest wild boar dead, the herd scattered as if it had lost its leader. But Big White and Little White were clearly not satisfied with this outcome. Seeing the six wild boars fleeing in all directions, they roared and chose the closest one as their target. They quickly chased after it, their two huge front paws grabbing the boar's body. Their massive mouths opened wide, and they bit down hard on the target's neck. The sound of bones breaking rang out, and two more wild boars were left behind.

As a result, seven wild boars died tragically.

"That's great, that's great..." Yang Zhengfang was overjoyed. He ran to Da Bai, hugged its neck, and held the giant dog tightly in his arms. Da Bai was also quite excited. Its blood-stained tongue kept licking Yang Zhengfang's body, his hands, and his face. Its thick waist and hips swayed vigorously, and its big tail shook like a broom.

Seeing that his elder brother was so well-liked by the master, Erbai was very anxious. He spoke in a nasal voice and anxiously circled around the master: "I've also done a lot of work, so why doesn't the master appreciate me?"

"Hehe, no wonder they're so valuable. Two dogs almost wiped out a whole herd of wild boars..." Liu Shugen could only grin foolishly now; the result was simply too impressive.

Seven wild boars! Even ordinary domestic pigs would be worth at least 10000 yuan, let alone wild boars! And among these seven big guys, there's even a king of wild boars. If they sell well, they'd be worth at least 50000 yuan.

"Hahaha, our Dabai is a good dog, I wouldn't sell it for any price..." Yang Zhengfang laughed heartily, but then he saw Dabai's bleeding mouth and remembered that Dabai had been injured in the mouth by the wild boar's tusks. He couldn't help but feel sorry for it and pried open its big mouth: "Dabai, open your mouth and let me see..."

Da Bai was very affectionate towards its owner. When Yang Zhengfang pried open its mouth, it opened its mouth in response to its owner's force. However, the wound on Da Bai's chest pained Yang Zhengfang greatly. There were two bloody holes, each one centimeter in diameter, on Da Bai's chest, from which blood was flowing out.

Yang Zhengfang quickly put down his backpack, took out Yunnan Baiyao (a traditional Chinese medicine), and applied the medicine to Da Bai. Yang Zhengfang applied a thick layer until the bleeding from the wound stopped. Da Bai closed its mouth, and a spicy and numbing taste made it shake its head repeatedly. Although the pain in its upper jaw was relieved a lot, it kept its distance from its owner. The key point is that dogs are not necessarily afraid of pain, but they are definitely afraid of bitter, spicy, and other stimuli.

"Brother Yang, what do we do now? These are seven wild boars..." Liu Shugen suddenly looked worried.

"Why don't we go back to the village and get some people? There are enough people in the village to carry seven wild boars down the mountain, right?" Yang Zhengfang thought Liu Shugen was worried about not being able to get the wild boars down the mountain.

"I mean, we caught seven wild boars, so wouldn't we win?" Liu Shugen said.

"What's there to win? We're on a one-by-one basis. Even if you catch seven big dinosaurs, and they catch eight sparrows, we still lose..." Yang Zhengfang said.

"Hehe, you're right. You and Da Bai and Er Bai stay here and guard the place. I'll go to the village to call for reinforcements..." Liu Shugen thought it made sense and couldn't help but laugh. He went down the mountain happily.

Before long, a group of young men from Liujia Village, carrying ropes and levers, excitedly headed up the mountain, led by Liu Shugen. Behind them followed a group of tourists, some with DV cameras and others with mobile phones, all with their cameras turned on, ready to record this exciting scene.

The sight of seven wild boars lying in pools of blood was incredibly awe-inspiring, while the two giant dogs, covered in blood, were exceptionally majestic and intimidating. The blood had crystallized, appearing exceptionally glistening on the snow, and mixed with the mud-smeared snow, creating a scene of extraordinary tragedy.

"My goodness, that's incredible! Seven heads!"

"Uncle, is that a wild boar? It looks more like a rabbit. It bit off its neck..."

"Wow...that dog is so majestic..."

A group of young men and tourists immediately started shouting at the top of their lungs.

"Uncle, this is amazing..." The leader of the group, a loud-voiced young man, was Liu Shugen's nephew, Liu Lei. Liu Lei had benefited from Liu Shugen's influence and was fortunate enough to eat the dragon egg, which boosted his physical condition to the level of someone in their early twenties.

In fact, there are many Chinese medicines in the world that can make people look younger, such as ginseng, lingzhi, deer antler, and he shou wu. They all have such effects, but the effects are very slow. It is not something that can be achieved after just one dose. You have to take it often and replenish it slowly to make people look younger, turn white hair black, and regenerate teeth. These Chinese medicines are more about health preservation than myths.

"These are the wild boars we caught... Hurry up, everyone, carry them down the mountain..." Liu Shugen's face was flushed with excitement.

"Today, Liu Family Village and Zheng Family Village are having a lively time together, slaughtering pigs and eating meat..." Yang Zhengfang shouted.

"Awooo..." The group of young men roared excitedly. They often ate pork, but wild boar meat... not everyone had the ability to hunt wild boar.

"Hey, Yang, that's not right! Where are the tourists? Why didn't you include us?"

"We even brought a live recording for you... There were thirty of us, more cameras than at the Olympics..."

"That's right, that's right, we deserve a lot of credit too..."

Immediately, some tourists protested and started making a noisy commotion.

"Hehehe, since we all live here, we're all one family...including you all..." Yang Zhengfang quickly said with a smile.

"That's more like it..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The group of tourists laughed.

So, a group of strong young men pulled ropes and lifted poles to tie the seven wild boars securely, and then carried them down the mountain. The largest wild boar was so heavy that eight young men couldn't lift it at all. It was only with the help of Yang Zhengfang, Liu Shugen, and Liu Lei that they were able to lift the big wild boar.

This incredibly joyful scene was faithfully recorded by the tourists.

As everyone carried the wild boar down the mountain, they were immediately greeted with a warm welcome from the villagers. It turned out that everyone had received the news and was waiting at the foot of the mountain.

Zhang Shufang and Jiang Yue'e also stood in the crowd with sour faces. When they saw the two of them and a group of young men carrying the wild boar down, they couldn't help but roll their eyes at them.

Yang Zhengfang and Liu Shugen noticed their glances, but Yang Zhengfang, being the quicker one, immediately turned to Zhang Shufang and shouted, "Old Zhang, hurry up and get people together! We're treating everyone from Liu Family Village and Zheng Family Village to wild boar meat today, so we won't have time to arrange anything else. We need to go catch rabbits! Da Bai and Er Bai are useless; they insist on catching wild boars instead of rabbits. This time, we'll take San Bai and Si Bai with us..."

Why not catch a wild boar? Why insist on catching a rabbit?

Everyone was quite surprised by Yang Zhengfang's words, but Zhang Shufang chuckled, feeling that the old man was getting more and more clever.

"Hmph..." Jiang Yue'e was dissatisfied, and her gaze toward Liu Shugen was as sharp as a knife.

"Oh dear, Brother Yang, let's hurry! It's getting late, and if we don't hurry, we'll lose..." Liu Shugen said 'urgently'.

Jiang Yue'e's gaze softened as she looked at Liu Shugen. She felt that the old man was quite quick-witted, at least not much worse than Xiao Yang.

Women are naturally competitive. If other men's husbands perform well, and their own husbands don't, then they'll have to give them a good talking-to when they get home.

"No need, even if we lose this round..." Zhang Shufang said with a smile.

"Yes, we lost, and we're willing to accept our defeat..." Jiang Yue'e smiled mischievously.

"How could that be? We're competing with rabbits, not wild boars, so it doesn't count..." Liu Shugen panicked immediately, dropped the wild boar, and rushed to Jiang Yue'e, waving his hands repeatedly.

Just imagining his wife not eating for a month almost made Liu Shugen shiver, even though he knew it was a joke.

When Liu Shugen suddenly stopped carrying the wild boar, the young men who were helping him were in real trouble. They suddenly felt as if they were being weighed down by dozens of pounds, and their legs were trembling. Fortunately, Yang Zhengfang and Liu Lei were still carrying it, otherwise, the young men would have been crushed to the ground.

However, everyone's gaze towards Liu Shugen changed. The moment he abandoned his post, dozens of kilograms suddenly appeared on everyone's shoulders. And there were seven or eight of them! Just how strong must Liu Shugen be?

"Hehe, how about we call it a draw..." Zhang Shufang laughed.

"This isn't a good idea, it makes it sound like we can't accept defeat..." Jiang Yue'e said smugly.

"Absolutely not, we got a great deal! We agreed that it would be calculated by quantity, not by weight. Please, gentlemen, don't hold it against us..." Liu Shugen didn't know why, but he was unusually quick-witted today.

"In that case, shall we let them go?" Jiang Yue'e asked Zhang Shufang with a smile.

"Yes, yes, let them go. There's no way they could have caught 50 wild boars before tonight. We caught a full 54 with that sieve..." Zhang Shufang said.

"Okay, let's call it a tie..." Jiang Yue'e nodded happily.

"Yes, yes, yes..." Liu Shugen felt his face turn red. The main problem was that the strange and surprised looks from the onlookers were making him feel uncomfortable.

"Old Yang, hurry up and find Mingming..." Zhang Shufang said to Yang Zhengfang.

"I'm going, I'm going..." Liu Shugen blushed and ran nimbly towards Zhengjia Village. He should avoid it if he could. Although the old man was not young, he was still very thin-skinned.

Yang Zheng said to the men carrying the wild boar, "Let's hurry and carry the boar into the yard..."

"good……"

Everyone readily agreed and carried the wild boar toward Yang Zhengfang's house.

Wei Qingqing and Aunt Liu got up quite late. They had slept so well last night that they lingered in bed after waking up. The two sisters chatted for a long time until the sun was high in the sky before they finally got up and got dressed.

"I wonder if they left us any food..." Aunt Liu put on her winter coat, but felt a bit hot. She casually remarked, "...Is it a bit hot today? It feels like summer again..."

"They dare not leave us any food? If Yang Ming really dares to starve me, I'll tell my mother-in-law..." Wei Qingqing said rather savagely.

"You're just being stubborn. Your mother-in-law really hits people. She hit Yang Ming, don't you feel bad?" Aunt Liu rolled her eyes, thinking back to half a month ago when Wei Qingqing instigated her mother-in-law to beat Yang Ming. Wei Qingqing never expected her mother-in-law to actually hit someone. She was just being a little coquettish, but her mother-in-law used a belt and whipped Yang Ming's back until it bled. Wei Qingqing was heartbroken and rushed over crying, only to get a belt on her buttocks as well. Zhang Shufang was almost scared to death.

"Hehehe..." Wei Qingqing just smiled and didn't say anything. How could she not feel sorry for Yang Ming after he was beaten?

As the two stepped out of the cabin, Liu was quite shocked by what she saw. The hot spring valley was shrouded in layers of thick water vapor, which, though pervasive, lacked any of the coldness of frost. It was like dewdrops, moist and pure, reflecting rainbows in the sunlight...

"Is the dew too heavy?" Aunt Liu immediately felt her body was a little damp and couldn't help but twist her body uncomfortably.

"Of course it's huge! This is a hot spring, so the humidity is naturally high. Plus, with yesterday's heavy rain, the humidity is definitely even higher..." Wei Qingqing said, pulling Liu Sao out of the hot spring valley and heading home.

Once outside the back garden, there was an exceptionally neat snow line at the entrance, and the temperature difference was enormous. It was as if it was spring inside the back garden, but a cold winter outside. The stark contrast was striking.

This time, not only was Aunt Liu shocked, but even Wei Qingqing was shocked.

The two slipped into the house through the back door and climbed onto the earthen kang (a heated brick bed) in the east room. The kang was warm, and on the kang table in the middle of the kang were two large bowls, both covered with lids. Clearly, this was the breakfast that Yang Ming had prepared for them.

Wei Qingqing lifted the two large bowls, revealing a dish of pickled vegetables and four boiled eggs—a typical simple breakfast.

"If only there were fried dough sticks..." Wei Qingqing picked up her chopsticks and ate a piece of salted vegetable.

"Lazy, not even taking a steamed bun... Isn't it too sweet???" Aunt Liu rolled her eyes at Wei Qingqing, then got off the kang (heated brick bed), took out a steamer of warm white steamed buns, two poached eggs, and two large bowls of hot milk from the big pot in the outer room.

So the two sisters sat down at the kang table and began to eat heartily.

"Hey, you two are awake?" Yang Ming suddenly lifted the curtain and walked in. His shoes and trouser legs were still covered with snow.

"Hmph, I took Aunt Liu for a walk around our farm yesterday..." Wei Qingqing picked up a piece of salted vegetable, then took a bite of a large white steamed bun, eating it with relish.

"Hmph, I never expected you two to be hiding such a big secret..." Aunt Liu glanced at Yang Ming, picked up her milk and took a sip.

"Hehe, Aunt Liu found out too?" Yang Ming glared at Wei Qingqing and said with a smile to Aunt Liu.

Wei Qingqing was glared at by Yang Ming, but she stuck out her little tongue and her face turned a little red.

"Of course, when it really matters, it's Qingqing who's the best..." Aunt Liu rolled her eyes at Yang Ming, her tone somewhat resentful.

"Hehe, since Aunt Liu knows, I'll get straight to the point," Yang Ming sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), his expression rather grave. "A Japanese man came to our house yesterday, and he might have some designs on us. I think we need some means of self-defense..." As he spoke, Yang Ming pulled two 'flashlights' from his pocket. "These are two fertilizer processing machines. You each take one. If you encounter danger, press the switch to process organic fertilizer and point the end with the light bulb at the enemy..."

Using the function of processing organic fertilizer to deal with the enemy is absolutely cruel. Once the enemy is hit, he will turn into a pile of fertilizer in a very short time. Even with DNA testing, it will be impossible to identify whose fertilizer it is.

"You mean, this is a fertilizer processing machine???" Aunt Liu took the flashlight from Yang Ming's hand and examined it from all angles.

"That's right..." Yang Ming nodded.

"Alien technology?" Aunt Liu raised an eyebrow.

"Hmm..." Yang Ming nodded.

"Never mind where this came from, just tell me quickly, what's going on?" Wei Qingqing took the fertilizer processing machine and asked urgently.

"Actually, there weren't any obvious signs. That Japanese man was accompanied by a deputy section-level cadre..." Yang Ming told the two women about Zhao Weida and Asahi Ichiro's behavior. "I think their purpose is to get our anti-aging drug..."

"Your guess makes a lot of sense. Nowadays, the anti-aging drug is no longer a secret, especially after our agritainment business developed. More tourists come to our village, and it's easy to find out something from the villagers..." Aunt Liu said.

"There are no secrets in the world. I never intended to hide anything from anyone from the beginning. If it weren't for the fact that the anti-aging drug would be too shocking to be seen on the market, I would have planned to put it on the market..." Yang Ming said.

"Hehe, how could I possibly know what you're relying on?" Aunt Liu was a very clever woman; she easily gleaned some other meaning from Yang Ming's words.

"My reliance? I can tell you this: within a radius of a hundred miles, I can wipe out every chicken and dog; I can pilot a spaceship and travel through space... With just these two things, I don't need to be afraid of anyone..." Yang Ming said confidently.

"From what you're saying, it seems you have something else to rely on???" Aunt Liu was very quick-witted.

"Hehe, of course, but it's not convenient to tell you..." Yang Ming said with a smile.

"Oh, I'm so disappointed..." Aunt Liu really felt very disappointed.

"Disappointed my foot! His last resort is something even my in-laws don't know about," Wei Qingqing rolled her eyes and said.

"That makes me feel a little better..." Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile returned to her face.

"Honey, what do you think? Should we get the spaceship ready so we can fly off Earth and explore the universe?" Wei Qingqing said to Yang Ming with hopeful eyes.

"Do you know how big a spaceship is? If we actually build a spaceship, we won't be able to avoid being exposed even if we want to," Yang Ming said.
