[Daily Report: In the northwest corner of the old forest farm, there is an adult female wild boar, weighing over 230 pounds, leading five piglets as they forage for food.]

Fang Wei, who was sleeping with Wu Shaoli in his arms, suddenly opened his eyes.

I am!

A wild boar weighing over 200 pounds, plus a few piglets, probably weighs over 300 pounds!

Even though wild boar meat isn't expensive right now, selling over 300 jin (150 kg) still brings in tens of yuan!

Fang Wei was so excited that his breathing became heavy.

Finally, another big shipment has arrived!

But he immediately calmed down. No rural person didn't know how terrifying a sow with piglets could be!

That thing's fangs are sharper than knives; one jab can rip open a person's belly, and their intestines will spill out on the spot.

Going alone would be suicide!

But Fang Wei was unwilling to give up. He gritted his teeth and gently lifted the blanket, intending to go outside and think about what to do.

But as soon as he moved, Wu Shaoli woke up immediately.

"What are you doing in the middle of the night?"

Fang Wei whispered, "A big shipment has arrived from the mountain."

Wu Shaoli's mind cleared instantly. She grabbed his arm and whispered, "Is it alive? Do we have to go now?"

"Keep sleeping, I'll be back by morning at the latest."

Fang Wei nodded, took out the wood-chopping axe from the house, found a hemp rope about the thickness of a thumb, wrapped it around his wrist twice to test its strength, and picked up the shovel behind the door.

"What exactly is that thing on the mountain?"

When Wu Shaoli saw what he was carrying, her face turned pale. "Our family isn't short of money, can we not go?"

Fang Wei returned to the bedside, bent down and kissed her forehead, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, I'll be fine."

"Fang Wei!"

Wu Shaoli gripped his arms tightly, her voice trembling as she said, "You...you absolutely cannot die! Otherwise, my daughters and I won't be able to survive!"

"it is good."

After comforting his wife, Fang Wei quickly left the house.

He didn't go straight up the mountain, but instead jogged and turned into a house, knocking on the door a few times.

"Who is it?"

Yang Qian's impatient roar came from inside the room, followed by the sound of clattering footsteps, and then the door was flung open with a bang.

"Fang Wei? What are you doing? What's wrong with you in the middle of the night?!"

"Let's go inside and talk."

Fang Wei pushed him directly into the house, closed the door behind him, and said directly, "There are wild boars on the mountain, a big sow with five piglets, in my old forest farm."

"...What do you mean?"

Yang Qian's drowsiness vanished instantly, and he growled angrily, "Are you crazy? A sow protecting her piglets can kill! Are you so indebted that you're willing to risk your life?!"

Fang Wei didn't waste any words with him and simply held up three fingers.

"As long as you can catch it, no matter how much it sells for, I'll give you 30%."

"..."

Yang Qian's Adam's apple bobbed. He liked to gamble, and his family was only slightly better off than Fang Wei's. A wild boar weighed at least 200 jin (100 kg) and could be sold for at least several tens of yuan.

"Are there really wild boars in your old logging camp?"

"have!"

Fang Wei said without changing his expression, "Didn't I lease that old forest farm? I owe the credit union more than three hundred yuan, and I haven't been able to sleep well these past two nights, so I went to the old forest farm to take a look."

"Who knew we'd suddenly spot those wild boars? I immediately ran down to ask you to help me catch them."

"Don't say I'm not a brother."

Yang Qian was very tempted and bargained, saying, "But this is too dangerous; someone could die if things go wrong. Thirty percent isn't enough, forty percent!"

"Can!"

Fang Wei immediately replied that he had prepared for Yang Qian to bargain before he came, and his bottom line was 50%.

"Alright, since you're so agreeable, let's do it!"

Yang Qian went back to his room, pulled a large machete from under his bed, and then grabbed the axe from his house before saying to Fang Wei, "Let's go!"

……

"stop!"

Upon hearing the commotion ahead, Fang Wei immediately raised his hand and gave a low shout.

Yang instinctively held his breath.

From the bushes not far away came a series of grunting sounds, the crisp sound of branches being broken, and the muffled sound of soil being overturned.

found it!

Fang Wei pulled Yang Qian back carefully for several dozen meters.

He quickly scanned the surrounding terrain. Two rocks separated a passage less than two meters wide, and the surface of the rocks was covered with moss, making it very slippery.

"This is it."

Fang Wei shoveled the shovel to Yang Qian and whispered, "Dig a shallow hole in the middle, not too deep, just enough to trip things up."

Yang Qian nodded, and without saying a word, picked up a shovel and started digging.

Fang Wei tied a slipknot with the hemp rope.

After the pit was dug, he carefully laid the rope around the edge of the pit, casually placed a few dry branches on top, and then scattered some loose soil and dry leaves on it.

You can't see anything under the moonlight.

Fang Wei tied the other end of the rope to a tree trunk about the size of a bowl, wrapped it around several times, and finally tied a knot.

"You're hiding behind that rock."

He pointed to the rock, his voice quick and soft, "Hold the rope tight. As soon as you hear me yell 'Pull,' pull hard! Don't let go, even if it kills you!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Qian knew that Fang Wei intended to act as bait himself, and quickly nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, as soon as I hear you shout, I'll pull you out immediately! I absolutely won't let anything happen to you!"

Although it's very unethical to do this, sows with piglets are really terrifying.

Fang Wei took a deep breath, picked up the axe, and crouched down to slowly walk around to the other side of the bushes.

The sow was less than twenty meters away from him, her black hair thick and stiff, and her two tusks looked terrifying.

Five little piglets huddled around its belly, grunting and nudging the thing on the ground.

Fang Wei was so nervous that his palms were covered in cold sweat.

He picked up a fist-sized stone, weighed it in his hand, and suddenly hurled it at the enemy with a loud roar.

"ah--"

The female wild boar suddenly turned her head, her eyes inexplicably turning red.

"roar--"

It roared, pawed at the ground, and charged toward Fang Wei with a terrifying speed completely disproportionate to its size.

Fang Wei turned and ran, feeling like his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

The voice behind him grew closer and closer, and he could even smell a fishy odor!

No turning back!

You absolutely must not turn back at a time like this, or you're doomed!

Fang Wei's legs were moving forward with all his might, his lungs burning as if they had been filled with chili water!

ten meters.

five meters.

Three meters —

He suddenly leaped forward, his shoulder blade slamming into a stone on the ground, the pain causing his vision to go black!

"pull--"
