Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 240: Get 2 more wild boars, take a break and catch pheasants

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao quickly drew their bows and arrows and exchanged glances, their eyes filled with understanding and determination. Cheng Chumo shouted, "Come on, let's see how we can subdue these two wild boars today!"

After saying that, they drew their bows and arrows, the bowstrings were taut, and the arrows were pointed directly at the two wild boars that were rushing towards them ferociously.

The wild boar seemed to feel threatened, grunting even louder, digging the ground with its four hooves to stir up a cloud of dust, and then it rushed towards Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao like an arrow.

It looked as if it was going to crush everything in front of it, its sharp fangs flashing a cold light in the sunlight.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao stood still, their eyes fixed on the wild boar running towards them.

When the wild boar approached, the two men let go at the same time, and the sharp arrows whizzed out and accurately hit the wild boar's forelimbs.

The wild boar felt pain, but did not stop. Instead, it became even more furious.

Cheng Chumo quickly drew the long sword from his waist, while Qin Huaidao dodged the wild boar's charge by moving sideways and used his backhand to strike the wild boar's side.

At this time, Li Hao also rushed up, waving the stick in his hand and hitting the other wild boar hard on the back.

The wild boar was attacked from all sides and its movements gradually slowed down.

Yu Yu and Xiao Yu watched nervously from the side, not daring to make a sound.

Cheng Chumo seized the opportunity, took a step forward, and stabbed the wild boar's neck with his long knife, causing pig blood to spurt out.

Qin Huaidao was not to be outdone. He drew his bow and shot the remaining wild boar in the vitals, causing it to fall to the ground with a thud.

Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the wild boar on the ground, their hearts filled with joy of harvest and relief at having survived the disaster.

Yuyu looked at the two wild boars lying on the ground. The fear on her face had long since disappeared, replaced by an unstoppable smile. She clapped her hands and said, "Hahaha, that's really amazing. This is good."

Xiaoyu also smiled and nodded in agreement: "Well, your skills are really amazing."

Cheng Chumo wiped the sweat from his forehead and responded with a smug look on his face: "Of course, my ability is not exaggerated."

Qin Huaidao smiled and joked, "Two more pigs, this is quite a harvest."

Yuyu tilted her head and asked, "Are we going to catch pigs next?"

Li Hao quickly waved his hands: "No more, three is enough. If we catch more, we won't be able to carry them all. Today's harvest is already quite rich, we should prepare to go back."

Cheng Chumo looked at the two wild boars he had just hunted, put his bow and arrow on his back, and said proudly, "I can take care of these two wild boars by myself. You don't have to worry about them."

As he spoke, he first walked to a wild boar, bent down, grabbed the boar's two hind legs with both hands, and with a little effort, he lifted the boar onto his shoulders. The wild boar looked quite heavy, pressing down Cheng Chumo's body slightly, but he quickly stabilized himself.

Then he walked over to another wild boar, picked it up with the same nimbleness, and stood there steadily.

Although it looked very strenuous, he still said stubbornly: "See, this is easy, let's go."

When others saw this, they couldn't help but laugh at his appearance.

Yuyu's eyes sparkled, and he said expectantly, "Let's go hunt some more sheep. The sheep in this hunting ground have delicious meat. We'll definitely enjoy a good meal if we bring them back to the tavern."

Xiaoyu listened, smiled and nodded, and responded: "Yeah, it's good to get more. We can prepare more mutton and make a lot of delicious dishes. We can also barbecue. Then let's look for some more sheep."

Cheng Chumo raised an eyebrow and jokingly said, "Oh, you have quite a big appetite. But that's fine. Since we're here today, let's hunt more. We can't go back empty-handed."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the direction where sheep might be found in the hunting ground.

They walked along the hunting grounds for a long time, their steps gradually becoming heavier. Yuyu wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and panted, saying, "We've been walking for so long, we're so tired. Let's stop and rest."

Xiaoyu quickly supported her and said distressedly, "Yes, yes, it's time to take a break. Your feet are sore after walking all the way."

After hearing this, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao also stopped, carefully placed the wild boars they were carrying on the ground, then sat down on the grass and breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Hao walked around and found a relatively flat and shady place. He called everyone, "Come and rest over here. It's more comfortable here."

Everyone sat around and pounded their sore legs. While resting, they also kept an eye on the movements around them.

After all, new prey may appear in this hunting ground at any time.

Yuyu sat on the grass, tilted his head, thought for a while, and then said, "How many sheep should we kill? I think we should kill more than three. We should take more and barbecue them back."

Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly in agreement: "Yes, yes, it's better to prepare more. The mutton can be used to make a lot of barbecue."

Cheng Chumo frowned and said worriedly, "Can we get them? We already have three wild boars. If we get a lot of sheep, it will be difficult to carry them all the way."

Li Hao patted his chest and replied confidently, "Of course, we're not worried that we can't carry this little bit. The worst that can happen is that we have to make a few more trips. Anyway, we've gained more today, so we can just carry more back."

After hearing what Li Hao said, everyone felt that it made sense, and they began to discuss with great interest how to find and hunt sheep later.

Yuyu pouted and said with a little grievance: "I haven't caught any prey yet. You all have gained something, but I still have nothing."

Xiaoyu looked at her and said jokingly, "You're lucky you weren't scared by the wild boar during that fight. You're still thinking about getting your prey. But when we go hunting sheep later, you have to follow closely. If we get the chance, I'll let you hunt one yourself. Then you can have your own harvest."

When Yuyu heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. He nodded repeatedly and said enthusiastically, "Yes, you are right, Mom. I will definitely perform well and hunt a sheep."

As he spoke, he stood up and stretched his arms and legs.

As he was speaking, the sharp-eyed Yu Yu suddenly saw a colorful pheasant walking and looking for food in the grass not far away.

Her eyes lit up, and she tiptoed towards the pheasant slowly and quietly. When the distance was right, Yu Yu suddenly rushed forward, stretched out her hands, and grabbed the pheasant firmly.

The pheasant flapped its wings and struggled in her hands, but Yu Yu held on tightly and did not let go, with a smug smile on her face.

She trotted over to Xiaoyu, handed the pheasant to her, and said with a smile, "Mom, look, I caught a pheasant. This one is for you too. I can count it as a reward."
