Chapter 97 Hunting the Wild Boar King
Ding Wanru's gentleness is like the melting snow in early spring, clear and delicate.
Chen Yongqiang gazed at the woman in his arms, his consciousness rising and falling in waves of tenderness, with only one thought lingering in his mind: This woman is just too good at taking care of people.
After finishing, Chen Yongqiang sat up and started to put on his clothes. Ding Wanru also got up, her bare feet touching the cool ground, and carefully smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothes on the back, then straightened his collar.
Looking at her still flushed cheeks, Chen Yongqiang said softly, "I remember you've always wanted to open a clinic. I'll help you make that happen someday."
Ding Wanru continued to gently stroke the last uneven spot on his chest, and said softly, "That was my thought before. Now, I just want to give you a big, healthy son, and then teach him medicine properly, so that I can pass on this skill to you."
She was unaware of Chen Yongqiang's current abilities and was only thinking about the future in the way ordinary people do.
Chen Yongqiang held her hand: "Running a clinic and teaching children don't conflict. I plan to start medicinal herb cultivation in the village later, and I'm afraid I'll need your help to oversee many things then."
Ding Wanru was taken aback: "Grow medicinal herbs? Where in our village do we get so much idle land to grow that?"
"Right now it's just a thought, we'll see next year. We need to make sure everyone's bowls are full and their stomachs are satisfied before we can think about other sources of income."
He knew that the first step was to get everyone in the village planting high-yield, drought-resistant crops.
Only after the most basic needs of food and clothing are met can the land be freed up to grow more valuable crops.
When Chen Yongqiang came out of Ding Wanru's house, the village was quiet, with only a few sporadic barks of dogs coming from afar.
He carried a few wild rabbits home, pushed open the gate, and saw the kitchen light still on.
Lin Xiulian had already made the pancakes, ready for him to take with him into the mountains to eat.
"You're back?" Lin Xiulian greeted them.
"Hmm." Chen Yongqiang placed the rabbit on the stone slab.
Then he pulled two eggs out of his pocket: "I wonder whose chicken laid its eggs on the edge of the field."
These two eggs were actually laid by the chickens in the space, and they are extremely nutritious.
"What a wonderful thing!" Lin Xiulian said with a smile as she accepted the eggs.
Chen Yongqiang squatted in the corner of the yard, gutting and skinning a wild rabbit. As the blade sliced through the flesh, his thoughts drifted far away.
The system alerted that someone was pregnant. Ding Wanru was ruled out, so the remaining two were Wang Guixiang and Liang Meie.
His hands kept moving, but his heart tightened. He hoped it wasn't Liang Meie.
She's a widow; if she really gets pregnant and the news gets out... who knows what the village will say.
The rabbit meat was stewing in the iron pot. Chen Yongqiang said to Ding Wanru, "I'll go call Uncle Qin over for a couple of drinks."
He walked to the wall of the neighboring courtyard and called out, "Uncle Qin, are you asleep? I caught two wild rabbits, get up and have a couple of drinks!"
A flashlight beam immediately shone through the window of the Qin family's bamboo house, and Qin Shan's energetic reply came through: "Yongqiang, wait for me, I'm coming!"
From another room came Qin Liping's excited voice: "Dad, I want to go too!"
After a while, Chen Yongqiang's courtyard became lively.
He sat around a small table with the Qin family father and daughter, in the middle of which was a large bowl of tempting, dark brown wild rabbit meat.
Lin Xiulian brought out a plate of peanuts and set out bowls and chopsticks for the group: "You can eat slowly, I'll go and rest first." She gets tired easily these days, so she didn't stay any longer.
Qin Shan sniffed: "Wow, this stew smells amazing!"
Without any hesitation, he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, eating until his mouth was full of oil.
Qin Liping sat down next to Chen Yongqiang: "Sister-in-law Xiulian's cooking is really good."
Chen Yongqiang said casually, "It'll have to do. Uncle Qin, want to have a drink with me?" As he spoke, he filled the glass in front of Qin Shan with loose liquor.
Amidst the chirping of insects, and over simple food and drinks, the villagers' evening chat had just begun.
Chen Yongqiang took a sip of the strong liquor, put down the rough ceramic cup, and looked at Qin Shan: "Uncle Qin, I'm looking for you tonight because there's something I need to tell you."
Qin Shan, who was chewing rabbit meat, stopped eating when he heard this: "What is it? Tell me."
Chen Yongqiang got straight to the point, "Well, I'm going into the mountains for a few days to work on the reservoir repair. I'll need your help to keep an eye on things and keep an eye on things."
Upon hearing this, Qin Shan didn't seem to care at all: "Even if you didn't say anything, I would still have to keep an eye on it. Don't worry, I'll take care of things at the construction site."
Qin Liping, who was standing next to him, immediately put down the chopsticks she had just picked up and looked at Chen Yongqiang with concern: "Brother Yongqiang, are you going into the deep mountains to hunt?"
Chen Yongqiang nodded calmly, "Yes, a wild boar king has been causing trouble in the Qinglong Mountains. We need to get rid of it as soon as possible."
He didn't elaborate on the wild boar king's ferocity, but his brief words conveyed the urgency of the situation.
Although Chen Yongqiang only gave a simple description, the courage revealed in his calm tone made Qin Liping's heart warm.
Her gaze towards Chen Yongqiang was overflowing with admiration; she felt that the man before her was so brave and reliable.
Qin Shan was more practical: "You're going into the mountains alone? That thing sounds dangerous; wouldn't it be too risky?"
"It's not advisable to have too many people. That beast is very clever and has a keen sense of smell. If there's even the slightest disturbance, too many people will only alert it, and it will immediately retreat back into the forest."
He recalled the previous unsuccessful attempts to encircle it, "I've been dealing with this thing for a while now, and I've figured out its nature. This time I'm confident."
After finishing the rabbit meat, Qin Liping helped clean up the dishes and wiped the table clean until the yard was tidy again. Then, she took a flashlight and followed Qin Shan home.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Chen Yongqiang got up. He carefully checked his hunting rifle, rope, dry rations, and other items, slung them over his shoulder, gave Lin Xiulian a few instructions, and then pushed open the courtyard gate and headed towards Qinglong Mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, the somewhat dilapidated mountain god temple stood quietly by the roadside.
Chen Yongqiang went inside, put down his hunting rifle, took out a small wine flask and a packet of rabbit meat wrapped in oiled paper from his pocket, and respectfully placed them on the offering table in front of the statue.
Then he took out three incense sticks, lit them with a match, and inserted them into the incense burner, where wisps of smoke rose.
He bowed three times to the statue of the mountain god and whispered a few prayers, "Mountain God, I will definitely pass the test and get rid of that beast."
After doing all this, he picked up his gun again and continued his journey into the deep mountains and forests.
He didn't take the usual mountain path, but instead followed the trails left by wild animals.
The deeper you go, the fewer traces of human activity you find.
Chen Yongqiang noticed several areas where the soil had been turned over and dug up. Judging from the extent and depth, it was definitely not something an ordinary wild boar could have done.
"The footprints don't seem to be from the wild boar king."
