Chapter 26 Lin Chuan betrays his brother
On the way back, Wang Long and Wang Liang completely lost their voices.
The reason was that the two of them felt they hadn't done anything, so they volunteered to carry the big wild boar.
Lin Chuan didn't stop them. He tied the little wild boar with vines, carried it in one hand, and followed behind the two.
The two of them struggled for ten minutes, so exhausted they almost stuck their tongues out.
At this moment, Lin Chuan tossed the little wild boar to them and let them carry it. He held Ohno Satoshi's hand with one hand and walked ahead, relaxed and carefree.
But the little wild boar wasn't so easy to lift. Although it only weighed fifty or sixty pounds, it was still alive.
When it struggles, its weight can double, and the key is that you don't know when it will start struggling.
The mountain road was difficult to traverse, and the two men struggled to carry it.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan picked up the little wild boar as well, one big in one hand and the other small in the other, and walked faster than the two of them empty-handed.
"No, Chuanzi, how can you be so abnormal? You weren't this strong before."
"Growth, do you understand? I'm still growing, my strength is increasing every day."
"We're also going through puberty, so why aren't we as abnormal as you?"
"Who knows? Maybe you guys are just short."
"roll."
Time flew by amidst the laughter and chatter. Upon seeing his own yard, Lin Chuan spoke:
"Go back and change your clothes, and call everyone in your house over. Slaughter a pig, and we'll eat here tonight."
The two of them didn't stand on ceremony; their clothes were indeed sticky and uncomfortable.
"Hey, while you're at it, go to Grandpa Wang's place and bring over the arrows I shot."
...
"Brother, brother, you've caught another wild boar! Wow, there's even one alive!"
Lin Chuan's shout attracted Lin Xue, and Lin Feng followed behind, looking at Lin Chuan with resentment, silently accusing him of not taking him along.
"Mom, boil some water. Don't go to the fields this afternoon. I've invited Aunt Mei and Aunt Lan for dinner tonight."
"Hmm, go wash up, look how sweaty you are."
Lin Chuan's sweat wasn't from exhaustion, it was purely from the heat; even with a good physique, you can't withstand the high temperature.
Lin Chuan's mother, Lin Xue, boiled water, but he didn't go to take a bath. He reminded Lin Feng of the dangers of the wild boar, then took a machete and led him up the mountain.
Lin Chuan's purpose in going up the mountain this time was to cut some shafts to make arrows. The bamboo arrows he used before were not powerful enough, so this time he planned to make wooden arrows.
"Hey, you need one that's about the thickness of a finger, straight, preferably from hard trees like oak, thorny oak, or sandalwood, cut to about a meter long."
After setting an example for Lin Feng, the two went their separate ways. Half an hour later, Lin Chuan called Lin Feng to meet up and go home.
When I arrived home, the Wang Long and Wang Liang families had just arrived and were sitting under the shade of a tree in the yard talking.
"Hey, Xiaochuan's back. Liangzi said you shot that wild boar with your bow and arrow?"
"Yes, we were lucky."
"What are you going to do with these poles? Make arrows?"
"Yes, the bamboo arrows we used before weren't powerful enough, so this time we're going to make some made of wood."
After answering a few more questions, and seeing that no one else was asking, Lin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.
People nowadays don't really have the concept of "boundaries," especially those with close relationships; they ask whatever comes to mind.
"Be careful going up the mountain. Wild boars can be very fierce. A couple of years ago, someone had their leg bitten off by a wild boar near Sandaokou."
As the captain of Qiaotouwan, Wang Hu had more experience than the average person. He had heard about wild boars injuring people, so he gave him a warning again out of concern.
"I know, Uncle Wang. I heard about this when I went there to take the exam. I know the seriousness of it."
"However, they don't know that Ryoko and Ryuko still want to grab it with their hands today."
Lin Chuan abruptly changed the subject and betrayed his two classmates without hesitation.
Safety is a serious concern. It's better to stab them in the back now than to let them get hurt by wild boars.
Wang Hu raised an eyebrow upon hearing this:
"You two, come here and take off your clothes so I can see."
Wang Long and Wang Liang glanced at Lin Chuan with grief and indignation. The two of them had changed into long sleeves after taking a shower because they were afraid of being discovered by their families.
Now, it's all over.
After taking off their clothes, both of them had marks all over their bodies, including Wang Long, who, although he wasn't dragged by the wild boar, had quite a few marks from being scratched by tree branches while running.
This naturally drew criticism from the elders. After they finished speaking, Lin Chuan walked over carrying the little wild boar.
"Don't underestimate this. Today the wild boar only bumped into you, it didn't bite. If it had bitten you, you'd both have to go to the hospital."
After saying that, Lin Chuan untied the vines from the little wild boar's mouth and handed it a bamboo stick about the thickness of a wrist.
The bamboo was quickly gnawed apart by the wild boar's snout, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.
"Xiao Chuan, why don't we stop hunting this wild boar? Let's just fish instead. What if the wild boar touches us and we get maimed?"
"Mom, don't worry, the wild boar can't do anything to me."
Lin Chuan had already planned out what to do after bringing back the live wild boar.
He first tied an arrow to the head, using the arrowhead that Grandpa Wang had just made, and from more than 30 meters away, he shot the little wild boar through the head.
This proves that he has a way to kill wild boars without getting close.
Then he demonstrated his speed by climbing a tree in three seconds, proving that he could escape even in a real crisis.
The reason he made things so complicated was that he didn't want his family and elders, the people who truly cared about him, to worry.
After all, his previous image was that of a well-behaved, sensible, and academically excellent student.
They can't help but worry if they suddenly have to transform into hunters without revealing anything.
As for the changes, they are all attributed to development, and to nonexistent classmates and friends.
After dealing with the elders, Lin Chuan directed Lin Feng, Wang Long, and Wang Liang to trim the arrow shafts.
It involves shaving off the fine scars and leaves on the surface to make the arrow shaft smooth, and then letting it air dry in the shade.
"The water is boiling."
When the water boils and the pigs are slaughtered, Lin Chuan remains the main force.
Because they call pig butchers "pig butchers," and Wang Hu had never butchered a pig before.
But it's not difficult; after so many years, I've learned it by watching.
After Lin Chuan made his move, Wang Hu gradually caught up with the pace.
Slaughtering the pig, cutting the meat, turning inside out the intestines—with many people working together, it was all done by around five o'clock.
Lin Chuan wasn't even asked to do the cooking; his mother, Aunt Mei, and Aunt Lan were busy in the kitchen.
Lin Xue brought snacks to share with Wang Yan, giving some to everyone. She received several compliments, which made her so happy that her eyes narrowed.
The courtyard was bathed in the colors of the setting sun, and the orange sunlight felt just right on people.
The three people in the kitchen were making a racket, their laughter barely concealed amidst their chatter.
The children in the yard were chasing after toy cars, their laughter carried far on the wind.
Lin Chuan grinned as he watched all this; this scene had appeared countless times in his mind in his previous life.
The past life was just a fantasy, but now it's real.
"Brother, brother, come play with me!"
Lin Xue's voice interrupted Lin Chuan's thoughts. He smiled and responded, joining in their game.
"Hey, dinner's ready."
Hearing that it was time to eat made the game instantly lose its appeal.
Several people ran to get bowls, chopsticks, and tablecloths, preparing to welcome this whole pig feast, which was very rare in this era.
