Chapter 41: Technically, You Can Rear Wild Boars
She took a deep breath and headed deep into the mountains again.
…
The sound of low grunts caused An Jiuyue to stop in her tracks shortly and she felt her scalp tingle.
She had never heard this sound in this life, but she had heard it in her previous life. It was the sound of a pig searching for food. However, the grunts were not as loud as that of a domestic pig’s.
She knew she had encountered… a wild boar.!!
And not just one, but several wild boars who were foraging for food in the open.
Wild boars live in groups. Did I encounter a family of wild boars wandering around looking for food?
“Wei Na, how many points do you think I’ll get if I rear a wild boar?” she asked. It seemed like there were many wild boars around.
Wei Na fell silent when it heard its master’s words.
“Well… Technically, you can rear wild boars, and they’ll definitely be worth a lot of points,” Wei Na replied after a long while.
“However,” she continued, “we have to face the reality. There are so many wild boars. The food in our space will only be enough for them to eat for a few days, right?
“Each boar is only worth 30 points, and you’ll only receive the points after a month. It is really… not worth it.
“Of course, if we reclaim more land and plant crops in it, we can rear as many wild boars as we want.”
An Jiuyue was surprised.
However, she would not choose to rear wild boars if she managed to reclaim more land though.
She felt that it would be great to raise some pigs, cows, and sheep. Boars could be very disobedient. She might enter her space one day only to find all her crops destroyed by them!
Hence, she decided not to rear wild boars. She wanted to be more practical.
“Alright, I understand. I won’t rear them.”
But as she took a deep breath, she felt that she should still try capturing the wild boars since she encountered them.
Although she only had a machete now, she was still in possession of the various weapons and crossbows she had stored in her space during her previous life.
She secretly approached the wild boars and spotted a few of them in the dark. Some were big and some were small. It seemed like they were really a family of boars.
“Haa.”
She exhaled deeply and slipped into her space.
She retrieved a few thick ropes from the cabinet. These ropes did not exist in her current world. They were very strong ropes—a wild boar would not be able to break free from them easily.
She also took out a couple of hunting traps. These traps were much bigger than what she had seen at home. They were sturdy.
It was fortunate that she was about to be sent into the forest for training before she transmigrated. All the items she had prepared for her training could be useful in the forest.
Once she was ready, she carried all these items and left the space.
She calculated the amount of time the wild boars would take to travel and felt her way to a spot where she began setting up her hunting traps and spreading a layer of wet leaves over them.
She also positioned the ropes, tying the ends of the ropes around several big rocks that she had moved onto a large tree trunk with her spatial ability.
It took her some time. But as she looked at the traps she had laid out, she felt that it was worth all the time and effort.
