All Heavens Strategy Game

This is a secluded depression near the foot of the mountain.

The location is relatively warm compared to other places, and the snowfall is relatively light. Some areas of the land are not covered by snow, revealing some wild fruits and grasses.

A wild boar the size of a calf lowered its head, using its sharp tusks to dig through the soil that was not yet frozen, nibbling on grass roots and chewing on wild fruits, occasionally letting out cheerful squeals.

Behind this large wild boar were about six or seven smaller wild boars, each about the size of a yellow dog, scratching for food.

"What a huge wild boar..."

Su Ming stared at the large wild boar, a cautious look on his face.

This wild boar weighs about 250 pounds. Its grayish-yellow bristles stand straight up like needles, resembling a brush.

Those fangs were exceptionally sharp, easily digging through the soil—natural killing weapons.

Don't underestimate wild boars. Wild boars are incredibly powerful in the mountains and forests. They are like moving vehicles. If a person is hit by one, it's no different than being hit by a small car. In this life, my father was killed by the tusks of a huge wild boar!

In the backward feudal era, wounds were easily infected. If you were hit by a wild boar's tusk, you might not die immediately, but you would likely die from infection after returning home!

Su Ming had no choice but to proceed cautiously.

Although he had mastered Xingyi Gong to a high level and possessed 300 jin of strength in his arms, it did not mean that he could fight a wild boar head-on. The force of a wild boar's charge was more than a thousand jin.

Humans are, after all, human, and their greatest strength lies in their brains and intelligence. Trying to fight a wild boar head-on in the wild is tantamount to suicide.

If any ordinary person encountered a wild boar in the wild, they would have run away long ago!

"Let's find a way to keep this big wild boar here!"

Su Ming's eyes darted around, staring at the wild boar as if it were a walking piece of fat meat, his eyes full of delight: he was craving the wild boar's body!

In recent years, despite the support from the villagers, they are still poor families, and each household is struggling to get enough to eat, so the resources provided are limited.

He can probably only eat meat once a day, and even then, it's a limited amount. If he wants to eat more, there's no way he can.

Moreover, he was the only one who could eat the meat; his family could only watch longingly from the sidelines, without getting any.

This wild boar is so big, with so much meat, it's enough for Su Ming to have a good meal, and his family can also have a feast and enjoy some meat!

Having eaten alone for several years, Su Ming still felt uneasy even though his family didn't say anything. He had been thinking about letting his younger siblings have some meat for a while.

It's easier said than done.

He only had a machete and a slingshot; with these weapons, it would be difficult to keep a wild boar alive!

Wild boars aren't stupid. If you dare to charge out, most wild boars will be startled and choose to run away.

Humans can't catch up with a wild boar's four legs on two legs, and can only watch helplessly as the wild boar runs away.

Even if you sneak up on the wild boar, if you can't kill it, it will escape.

If you want to hunt wild boars, making traps is the best way; otherwise, you simply cannot catch wild boars in the wild.

"Fortunately, I was blessed by heaven. I really couldn't have caught an ordinary wild boar, but these were all sows with piglets, which were particularly fierce."

"When ordinary wild boars are attacked, they immediately flee."

"Sows awaiting slaughter are fiercely protective of their young, have short tempers, and are extremely aggressive; they will absolutely fight to the death with their opponents."

"So, if I choose to attack this wild boar, it will most likely fight me to the death to protect its piglets!"

With this realization, Su Ming was no longer worried about the wild boar escaping.

There was only one thing he needed to think about: how to kill this wild boar!

Charging out with a machete to fight head-on would be the most foolish plan, and Su Ming did not intend to do so, as it would easily lead to his death.

He's planning to launch a surprise attack first!

Su Ming hid in the bushes and slowly approached the wild boar. When he was about ten meters away and could not go any further, he raised his slingshot, aimed at the big wild boar more than ten meters away, and aimed at its eyes.

Time ticked by, and Su Ming remained motionless, trying his best to find the optimal time to shoot. He only had one chance to shoot and could not afford to make the slightest mistake!

at last,

Just as the wild boar raised its head to chew on wild fruit and made a cheerful squeal, Su Ming fired a bullet. With a "whoosh" sound, it hit its target!

bingo!

"Awooo!"

The wild boar let out a miserable cry as its left eye shattered with a crack. The excruciating pain caused it to roll around in the dirt and frantically shake its head.

Almost simultaneously, Su Ming burst out of the bushes, raised his machete, and slashed at the wild boar's belly!

With his internal energy surging, his strength increased dramatically, making this strike both swift and ruthless!

The wild boar had no time to dodge and could only hurriedly raise its head to take the blow head-on.

"Peng..."

When Su Ming slashed at its head, the hard skull of the pig's head made his arm go numb. The bones were hard, especially the skull, and the slash did not cause any fatal damage at all!

Howl!

The wild boar's eyes were bloodshot. Stimulated by the excruciating pain, it ran more than ten meters, panting heavily as it glared fiercely at Su Ming. With a burst of speed, it not only stopped running away but also turned around and charged at Su Ming!

Dust billowed into the sky, snowflakes flew everywhere, like a speeding car crashing towards them!

Su Ming was agile and successfully dodged in a flash.

The wild boar missed its first attack, then turned and launched a second charge! Then came the third, the fourth, and the fifth, like a tireless machine, each charge terrifying in its own way!

Su Ming did not choose to confront him head-on; he simply kept dodging without launching any attacks.

Only a fool would try to outmuscle a wild boar!

The wild boar had lost an eye and had a gash on its head, so its strength and ferocity were at their peak. If it tried to fight head-on now, it would be courting death.

No matter how strong a human is, they can't beat a wild boar!

"wait…"

"My best opportunity to attack will come when it's exhausted, bleeding heavily, and at its weakest!"

A good hunter knows how to find the right opportunity and wait for it!

Su Ming understood this principle, so he just kept dodging.

After the wild boar charged more than ten times, its momentum gradually weakened and its strength waned. Meanwhile, the smaller wild boars beside it had come to their senses and were so frightened that they found a place to hide. The larger wild boar, awakened by the pain, lost its ferocity and began to plan its escape!

Unfortunately, it was too late!

In the instant the wild boar hesitated, a pebble flew through the air and struck its perfectly intact eye!

—Su Ming found the perfect moment and launched the first strike in this counterattack!

Ouch!

Both eyes are blind.

The wild boar's vision was completely black.

It rolled and spun around in place, lunging left and right, until it crashed into a big tree, leaving itself completely disoriented.

The wild boar was blind in both eyes, and the wound on its head caused it to bleed excessively. Su Ming didn't have to put in much effort after that, and successfully wore the wild boar down to death!

"Phew... Training your eyesight does have its benefits; good eyesight leads to a higher slingshot accuracy..."

In recent years, Su Ming has also learned how to use a slingshot.

Actually, he wanted to practice archery, but an eight- or nine-year-old child is too small and weak to use a bow and arrow, so he opted to practice with a slingshot instead.

Shooting has always been a skill; if you can shoot accurately with a slingshot, you'll achieve twice the results with half the effort when practicing archery later, which is a good foundation for archery training.

Therefore, sharp eyesight and accurate shooting with a slingshot were key to Su Ming's success in killing the wild boar.

now,

The sun gradually set.

As darkness fell,

Su Ming looked at the carcass of the large wild boar and was caught in a dilemma.

too heavy!

This wild boar weighs at least 250 pounds!

Su Ming had expended a lot of energy in the fight, making it difficult for him to bring a wild boar back to the village from the mountains.

Let alone the effort involved, even without the effort, in these snow-covered mountains, it would be an impossible task for a person to bring back a wild boar weighing over 200 pounds.

Even though Su Ming has practiced martial arts, he cannot do this for the time being.

"No, we have to go back right away."

"If it gets dark, there are countless wild animals in the mountains, and it gets even colder at night. Even if you had 100 lives, it wouldn't be enough to survive!"

"Especially the smell of this wild boar's blood; who knows how many carnivorous beasts it will attract..."

Seeing that it was getting late and there was no time to take the wild boar back, Su Ming thought for a moment and came up with an idea.

He dragged the wild boar to a relatively low-lying depression, found a snowdrift nearby, and buried the boar in the snow, covering it completely.

Fortunately, the snow was heavy and there was a lot of snow around. He didn't spend too much effort to successfully cover the wild boar with snowflakes. He then used the snow to cover the blood and conceal the scent as much as possible.

With this layer of protection, it would be difficult for wild animals in the mountains to spot the wild boar.

"We'll have to call someone else tomorrow to take the wild boar away..."

Before it got dark, the boy walked down the mountain alone, bathed in the setting sun.
