【Congratulations, host, for killing the species wild boar: Biological Score 115, random attribute drop: Constitution +2, Agility +1, random gold coin drop +230.】
The system's notification sounded, this little yellow hair must be dead.
Li Yu wiped the blood off his hunting knife, preparing to gut it.
This excited the three dogs, who looked at Li Yu expectantly.
They hadn't tasted meat for a long time, and today they were finally able to have a feast.
“Don't worry, there's plenty for you.”
Li Yu knew why the three dogs were so excited.
He quickly reassured them.
His hands didn't stop moving.
He directly cut open the pig's belly from top to bottom.
He removed the innards, called "lantern" by hunters, and hung them on a nearby tree.
“Mountain God, Old Master, please bless us, may my family and dogs have a bountiful harvest and safe travels in the mountains.”
This is called paying respects to the Mountain God and Old Master.
Whenever hunters catch a large animal in the forest, they would pay respects to the Mountain God and Old Master, it's a rule.
Of course, the way to pay respects to the Mountain God and Old Master varies from place to place.
Anyway, following his original memory, this was how his grandfather taught him, and he simply followed suit.
Next came the part the three good fellows liked the most.
Feeding the dogs.
Li Yu sliced one half of the pig liver.
“Come, Huahua, you did great today!”
“Woof!”
Huahua snatched the pig liver Li Yu threw to her, immediately starting to devour it.
Feeding the dogs always started with the lead dog, as it contributed the most, and it lets the rest of the dogs understand who the leader is.
Next came Dahei and Erhei.
Li Yu was not stingy, giving them a big chunk each.
He also praised them.
This was building their confidence, letting them understand.
As long as they could help hunt in the future, they would get their fill of meat.
The three ravenously hungry dogs finished half the liver, but obviously weren't full.
They were still looking at Li Yu expectantly.
If the hunter continued hunting,
The dogs would only get half-full, so they would have the energy to continue hunting.
When humans are full, they want to lie down and rest, dogs are the same.
However, Li Yu wasn't planning to continue.
His wife and sister-in-law were waiting for him to return for the feast.
If he got more, he wouldn't be able to carry it back, and leaving it in the forest would just benefit other animals.
When he got back, he would find a piece of leather, use a rope to make a better cushion.
Next time he went up the mountain, he could use it as a makeshift sled.
If he hunted more, he could pull it down the mountain, avoiding waste.
“Eat your fill, work hard next time!”
Li Yu cut out more meat from the pig's belly and fed it to the three dogs.
He only stopped when they were three were fed until they were round and full.
You must be generous when feeding hunting dogs, they risk their lives for you, so you can't be stingy.
Some hunters would rather tighten their belts and live a frugal life, they still need to feed their dogs.
That's the reason.
After feeding the dogs, Li Yu tested the weight of the little yellow hair.
Before bleeding it, it was about 230 pounds.
After gutting it, it would be about 167 pounds.
He wasn't planning to butcher the pig, so he directly lifted it and carried it on his shoulder to test.
The two points of Constitution from the system really did work.
The 167 pounds on his shoulder didn't feel heavy at all.
But considering he would be carrying this weight for over an hour on the mountain path.
Li Yu still added the two points of Constitution and Agility he got from the pig to himself.
After all, it came from the pig, and it's used on the pig.
That familiar warmth filled his body again.
Li Yu clenched his fists, feeling like he could punch a cow to death now.
......
At home.
The two sisters opened the door to the backyard, looking towards the back mountain with a longing gaze.
The cold wind outside blew into the house.
Xiao Min couldn't help but rub her hands.
Seeing her sister's worried expression.
She couldn't help but console her.
“Sister, don't worry, brother-in-law is so capable, he practically grew up in the mountains, he'll be back soon.”
After listening to her sister's consolation.
Xiuxiu's heart didn't feel much better.
She was truly afraid.
After their father passed away, they luckily found a man who treated them both well.
She was really worried that something might happen to Li Yu, and she wouldn't know how to live without him.
So she could only silently pray in her heart.
Hoping that Li Yu would return safely.
“Woof woof woof.”
While she was worrying.
Two dogs suddenly appeared on the path leading to the back mountain.
They were frolicking and running towards home.
“Hey, sister, look, are those our dogs coming back?”
Xiuxiu quickly looked over.
Wasn't that the dogs Li Yu took with him?
Xiuxiu immediately got up and looked towards the back mountain.
When she saw that familiar figure emerge from the forest, her worried heart finally calmed down.
“Xiao Min, go pour some water, Yu Ge has been working hard in the forest for so long, he must be sweating, get some to wipe him down later.”
“Okay!”
This little girl wanted to go up and see what kind of dogs they were.
She didn't know when Li Yu left.
She had heard many stories about how capable hunting dogs were, naturally, she was very curious.
But since her sister had given instructions.
She could only obediently follow orders.
After instructing the little girl, Li Yu was already nearby.
Seeing the thing he was carrying on his back.
Xiuxiu was startled, she quickly got up and prepared to help.
Dahei and Erhei ran into the courtyard first.
They didn't seem hostile towards Xiuxiu, who they only met once.
Mainly because she still had the scent of their master on her, they must be family.
So they went up to her to show off their accomplishment.
This startled Xiuxiu, but seeing that they didn't plan to bite her.
Instead, they kept circling around her and rubbing against her legs.
She let down her guard and reached out to stroke the heads of the two dogs.
Soft and fluffy, the feel was quite good.
“Xiuxiu, I'm back!”
“Ah?”
She was still a girl, seeing the cuteness of these two, she was distracted by petting them, forgetting about the important stuff.
She didn't realize until Li Yu reached the door.
“So much meat?”
Xiuxiu was a little embarrassed.
But seeing Li Yu carrying that bright red pork, her stomach felt a rumble.
Ever since they came to the countryside, they had almost forgotten what meat tasted like.
Now seeing so much meat right in front of them, how could they not be shocked?
“I... I'll help you!”
Xiuxiu was a little flustered, she wiped her hands and wanted to help.
But Li Yu smiled and said.
“No need, you go get the long benches from the house, I'll butcher the pig in the backyard, so we don't get the house messy.”
“Oh, okay, I'll go right away!”
