Chapter 352 Compassion
Xiao Hua was greatly shocked. Was that a wild boar? She knew how hard its skull was, yet the arrow had just pierced it?
"Quick, get up there," ngyu yelled at Xiao Hua.
Only then did Xiao Hua rember that she was now a Level 1 Martial Artist. How could she show weakness at this critical mont?
Wielding her broadsword, she charged forward.
The wild boar’s strongest force was its charge, but being a mountain villager and having learned the Witch Body Technique and beco a Martial Artist, Xiao Hua was quite agile. Thus, when the boar charged, she always managed to dodge.
Moreover, she managed to hack the boar several tis.
Xiao Hua was astounded, as each of her strikes seed to slice a large gash in the boar’s body.
She distinctly rembered that a wild boar’s hide was very thick, especially one that was nearing adulthood.
It seed that the strength was indeed in the knife her sister had given her.
Seeing its own blood, the pain spurred the boar’s ferocity, its eyes reddening even more as it kept launching charges at Xiao Hua.
Ten minutes later, the wild boar finally fell.
ngyu smiled faintly, "Not bad, after ten minutes, you finally killed it!"
Xiao Hua could detect the teasing in her tone.
Gasping for breath and looking at the wild boar that she had hacked into a ss, Xiao Tao said bitterly, "I’m really not good enough."
She was a Martial Artist, yet it took her ten minutes to kill a single wild boar.
And that was while wielding a sharp broadsword.
ngyu used her hand to collect the five wild boars she had killed, leaving only the one that Xiao Hua had killed, which had been sliced to quite a sorry state. With a few swishes of her knife, she skinned the pig, then chopped off a leg and bagged it. The rest of the at "disappeared" just like that. Even the stinking pig entrails disappeared.
Truth be told, ngyu didn’t want to put these things in her space, but Xiao Tao was yelling for it, so she collected it all.
She really didn’t know that plants could eat at!
Afterwards, Jiang ngyu collected her bow and arrow and broadsword, took out two bags of rice, shouldering one bag and carrying the thirty-so pounds leg of pork wrapped in a woven bag, and said, "Let’s go."
Xiao Hua quickly said, "Let carry the pork."
Not wanting to argue, ngyu let her shoulder a bag of rice and carry the leg of pork as they headed towards her hotown of Red Stone Village.
Walking into Red Stone Village, it was already past two in the afternoon.
People living there continuously greeted Xiao Hua:
"Hua is back."
"Hua, are you on holiday?"
"Hua is back for the holidays, what are you carrying?"
"Hua, you’ve finally returned. Your Brother’s girlfriend ca to your house yesterday, and your mother has been anxiously waiting."
The ntion of this matter also ca with a look of pity towards Xiao Hua.
Moreover, so people whispered, "What’s the use of studying so much..."
At first, Xiao Hua responded to each one, but upon hearing the last remark, her expression suddenly changed.
Naturally, Jiang ngyu noticed the change in Xiao Hua’s face, and she also saw the fleeting look of pity on those people’s faces.
This situation seed a bit off.
Right, it was after she heard about Brother’s Girlfriend coming ho that her expression changed.
She tugged at Xiao Hua’s hand, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here."
"En, big sister, I know."
They had agreed that Xiao Hua would call Jiang ngyu big sister from now on.
The houses in Red Stone Village were mostly built from timber into stilt houses, topped with fir tree bark. The first level housed pigs and cattle, as well as the toilet, while the second level was for living.
Stepping into Xiao Hua’s stilt house, a middle-aged woman in her forties was tending to the fire by the hearth. Upon looking up and seeing Xiao Hua entering with a big bag in each hand, her brows furrowed.
But seeing Jiang ngyu, she imdiately greeted with a smile, "Hua, is this your classmate?"
