Returning With A Bumper Harvest

She went around to the front of the tiger and saw that the tiger was already dead. There was a big bloody hole in its right eye, and its brain had long been stirred into a paste by the bamboo arrow. That was why it had died so simply.

It was a pity that the distance between the woman and the tiger was too close. The strong penetrating force allowed the bamboo arrow to pierce through the tiger’s skull, leaving a hole in the back of the head. The entire tiger skin was no longer complete, leaving behind a regrettable flaw.

“What a pity. This hole has caused the price of the entire tiger skin to drop by at least 50%. However, it can be made into a tiger skin coat for those little turnips.”

Mo Ruyue was still complaining about not earning enough money in her first sentence, but in her next sentence, she had already arranged the use of the tiger skin.

The price of such a giant beast was enough for Mo Ruyue’s family of six to live a carefree life.

Putting aside the fact that tiger meat was hard to come by, even the tiger bones were extremely rare medicinal herbs. The tiger penis could be used to soak in wine, and the tiger teeth were sharp weapons to ward off evil spirits. It could be said that this tiger could be sold for dozens of taels of gold.

Mo Ruyue waved her hand and put the tiger into the dimensional space. First, it was to prevent the tiger meat from going bad, and second, to prevent the smell of blood from attracting other carnivorous beasts.

Originally, she had planned to hunt a black bear. Although bear paws, gall, and meat were also valuable, they paled in comparison to the value of the tiger.

However, if she sold this tiger now, the huge wealth she would obtain would definitely attract covetous eyes. If she was alone, Mo Ruyue would not be afraid at all, but she had five little babies following her.

Not to mention that the shabby house they lived in did not even have a proper door. When they encountered thieves, even if they had Da Bao, who was extremely powerful, they could only surrender if the thieves caught some of the smaller babies.

“No, I have to do something else. Whether I repair the house or buy a yard, I have to take safety measures first.”

Mo Ruyue sighed. This was what it meant to have a treasure mountain but return empty-handed, helplessly looking at the treasure in hand but not being able to sell it. It really made one feel depressed.

In order to escape Da Bao’s stalking, it was already bright outside when Mo Ruyue left home. When she looked up at the sky, it was already past noon.

Deep in the mountains, the branches and leaves covered the sky above her head. It was rare for sunlight to shine through the gaps, which made it difficult for people to notice the passage of time.

Mo Ruyue didn’t continue to stay in the mountain. She turned around and walked out. She had set many traps along the way. Perhaps she could hunt some other wild animals.

It had to be said that today was indeed Mo Ruyue’s lucky day. After hunting that tiger, on the way back, Mo Ruyue found that there was a rather large deer trapped in the noose she had set up.

“That’s great. The deer meat is very nutritious. We can keep some for ourselves. The deer blood and antler are also valuable.”

In order to keep a whole piece of deerskin, Mo Ruyue finally chose to end the deer’s life with a stick and then put the deer back into her space.

After that, she caught a fox and a badger in her cage. It was even more important to protect the fur of these animals. She also killed them with a stick and threw them into her space. Mo Ruyue decided to stop here for today.

She walked very fast, following the marks she had left behind. The return trip was even faster than her trip to the mountains. Seeing that she was about to leave the mountain, Mo Ruyue took out a wooden rack with a pulley from her space and put the deer, fox, rabbit, and the others on it. Then, she took out a large number of ropes that she had prepared in advance.

Using the principle of pulleys, she easily moved the wooden frame full of prey down the mountain. Through the gaps between the branches and leaves, she saw a person standing at the foot of the back mountain and looking in her direction.

A rustling sound from the forest caught his attention, and he immediately ran over.

‘This child didn’t even look clearly before running in this direction. What if it’s a beast coming down the mountain?’

Mo Ruyue mumbled to herself and then shouted outside, “Run slowly. Be careful not to fall again!”

The branches and leaves of the shrubbery rustled. Soon, Da Bao was already standing in front of Mo Ruyue, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.

“Didn’t I tell you to bring me along when you enter the mountains? With that little strength of yours, you’ll be lucky if you don’t get eaten by the wolves. What prey do you want to hunt?”

Da Bao had also forgotten how scary Mo Ruyue was when she had a cold expression on her face. He was scolding her right in her face.

No wonder she had sent him to harvest the farmyard manure early in the morning. It turned out that she had sent him away so that she could secretly go hunting in the mountains.

Only the heavens knew how angry and anxious he was when he heard the news, but there was nothing he could do.

The back of the mountain was not a single mountain but a continuous mountain range. If she was only moving around the periphery, maybe he could find her, but now she had gone deep into the mountain. Where would he even start looking?

Da Bao did not know why he was waiting at the foot of the mountain behind the village. Now, even without this woman, they had enough money to live on. Furthermore, they did not have to worry about her thinking of selling them again in the future.

However, his legs seemed to have their own consciousness. They walked to the foot of the mountain on their own accord as if they had taken root there. He watched as the sun rose to the middle of the sky and gradually moved west. Fortunately, she had finally returned.

Mo Ruyue knew that there was a fire in his stomach, so she let him vent it out. However, Da Bao’s mouth did not stop. She pulled the rope to control the pulley in her hand again and again, and the rhythm gradually became impatient.

‘Damn kid, I understand that you were worried. It’s fine if you say a word or two, but why do you keep going on and on?’

“Stop talking and save some energy to help me move these things. Can’t you see how many things I brought back? Or go back by yourself now, and don’t delay my work.”

Mo Ruyue was running out of patience. Although the prey was supported by the pulley system and didn’t require much effort, it had been a day in the mountains. Her legs were sore and tired from the long journey. She just wanted to go back home and take a hot bath in the dimensional space to relax.

“You!”

Da Bao glared at her and was so angry that his chest heaved up and down. If it was someone irrelevant, he would not have bothered to say anything. However, this woman was not only in the wrong, but she also did not act like she had done anything wrong. Instead, she even put on an impatient look. Did she really think that someone owed her something?

But wait, what did she say?

Move what things?

Da Bao focused his eyes, and only then did he notice that Mo Ruyue did not come back empty-handed. The rack full of prey beside her was actually hanging in the air. No wonder he did not see it just now.

“You… you brought back all of these?”

Da Bao took a closer look. The biggest prey was a deer, which was at least 100 to 200 pounds. There were also foxes, badgers, and wild rabbits. It could be said that she had a good harvest.
