"Oink oink oink~~"

The wild boar, whose backside had been blown open, was now at the brink of eruption. Its pair of blood-red eyes were fixated on Uncle Wen, and combined with the boar's massive physique, exuded a powerful sense of terror and deterrence.

Faced with such a threat, Uncle Wen did not dare to hesitate any longer. He immediately pulled out the handgun he carried with him and aimed it at the opposite, thick-skinned big wild boar.

However, the hide of the boar was too thick, and the one in front of them was even more fat and greasy. Uncle Wen feared that even bullets might not be able to injure it, hence even with a gun in hand, he still didn't feel very secure.

Qin Fang and Sang Duo had also noticed the presence of this big wild boar by now. It was hard not to... Such a large boar staring at them, even the most sluggish person could sense its intense hostility.

Qin Fang frowned. Although he was aware that there were many such large wild beasts in the mountains, he had not expected to encounter one so quickly. Seeing the boar, with an arrow still sticking out of its butt, it was clear that the possibility of a peaceful outcome was bleak.

Sang Duo also furrowed his brow, raising his bow and arrow with a very stern look, evidently treating the wild boar as a formidable enemy to be taken seriously.

"Uncle, Uncle in-law, retreat..."

In the face of this situation, Qin Fang certainly would not back down. He immediately called out to Uncle Wen and Sang Duo, then took aim with his bow and arrow at the boar, allowing Uncle Wen to retreat back to his side, leisurely.

Uncle Wen naturally wouldn't refuse. Given the circumstances, they could only follow Qin Fang's command. Among the three of them, he was the weakest, while the strongest was naturally the vibrant young Qin Fang, who not only was proficient with archery but also surpassed the two elder men significantly in martial arts and strength.

If they wanted to get out of this situation unscathed, they had to rely on Qin Fang. Alone or two against one, these two aged men stood no chance against such a large wild boar.

Uncle Wen didn't panic, instead, he carefully kept an eye on the wild boar while cautiously retreating to Qin Fang's side. If he had been as faint-hearted as some people, he would have likely started running and escaping in disorder, which would have led to a violent attack from the big wild boar.

As it stood, the wild boar had slightly shifted its hooves a few times but ultimately did not launch an attack, allowing Uncle Wen to retreat successfully behind Qin Fang.

"Give me all the arrows; I'll draw this big guy's attention, then you two retreat..."

Simply standing off like this was definitely not a long-term strategy. They had been out for a while now, and if they continued to delay and night fell, the situation would become quite dire. Even Qin Fang's presence might not ensure safety for both men.

The only way was to divert the boar's wrath away from Uncle Wen and onto Qin Fang, who with his skills and speed could definitely shake off the boar.

"Okay..."

Neither Uncle Wen nor Sang Duo refused. They promptly handed over all their arrows to Qin Fang. They themselves would only use the Miao Knives for self-defense. With their strength, unless they could strike a vital spot on the wild boar, it would be difficult to injure it.

Instead of keeping many arrows that wouldn't be very useful, it would be better to give them to Qin Fang. With Qin Fang's formidable strength, it might be possible to break through the defensive hide of the big wild boar. At least more likely than them. Even if the boar got shot or beaten, it would help to draw its anger away.

Arrows were necessary consumables in the mountains, but hunters would not carry too many, just enough to last, since the arrows could be reused.

Moreover, carrying too many would greatly affect their mobility, which is not good for hunting. But it seemed that Qin Fang would not have the chance to recover his arrows now, and he would need to lure the boar far enough away with the arrows he had, which might not be enough...

Whoosh~~

Having received the arrows, Qin Fang didn't say much more to Uncle Wen or Sang Duo. They naturally understood what to do next. Qin Fang swiftly notched an arrow to his bow, drew it full, and then unleashed it with a burst of power. A thrumming sound echoed as the bowstring vibrated, and the long arrow turned into a meteor, hurtling towards the wild boar at high speed.

It was so fast that it was nearly impossible to track with the naked eye.

However, the wild boar was clearly no ordinary beast. It seemed to sense the incoming threat and managed to twist its seemingly clumsy body with great agility. The arrow almost grazed its belly before hitting the ground.

With a thud, the arrow buried halfway into the earth, its tail still buzzing and trembling...

"Aoao~~"

However, Qin Fang's arrow clearly made the already enraged wild boar completely explode. It let out such a roar, its blood-red eyes even more captivating. Its feet suddenly powered up, and it charged towards Qin Fang, while the arrow in its buttocks flailed in the air, looking particularly bizarre.

As for its real target, it was not Qin Fang but still Uncle Wen, who shot its backside earlier. Only because Uncle Wen stood behind Qin Fang did the boar charge in Qin Fang's direction.

Such a huge wild boar was a tyrant in these mountains, an existence even lions and tigers would not dare to provoke lightly. Once enraged, they are incomparable to ordinary beasts.

Ordinary beasts could be subdued by hunters with various methods, but when facing such large and tough creatures, most hunters would keep their distance, usually doing their best to avoid confrontation.

Swoosh~~

However, Qin Fang wasn't in a hurry and calmly drew his bow to shoot another arrow. The arrow flew straight and true, and though he aimed precisely, the boar was no easy prey; its bulky body remained agile enough to dodge with a slight pause in its movement.

The two were only a distance of a dozen or twenty meters apart. Once the wild boar charged, it could cover such a short distance in the blink of an eye, and Qin Fang and his companions immediately entered its attack range.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~

With the distance closing, the lethality of the arrows significantly diminished; only close combat weapons could counter such a large boar now. Sang Duo and Uncle Wen couldn't help feeling a surge of tension, knowing the tough hide of the boar wasn't easy to deal with.

But Qin Fang seemed unphased, astonishingly drawing three arrows at once and nocking them all on the bowstring, then simultaneously loosing them. The three arrows formed a "品" character as they flew towards the boar.

Now the boar was only about seven or eight meters away from Qin Fang, a fairly close distance for three arrows, reducing its chances of dodging significantly, not to mention that this setup was specially prepared for it.

Bang bang bang~~

As expected, the boar tried to dodge, but the distance was just too short, and with Qin Fang shooting three arrows at once, the boar found it impossible to avoid all of them with its limited intelligence. A moment's hesitation... and it missed the best chance to dodge, with all three arrows striking it.

"Aoaoao~~"

The force behind Qin Fang's arrows was immense, and the three arrows, infused with a bit of True Qi, had a terrifyingly lethal effect. Striking the target simultaneously, even the tough-skinned boar let out miserable shrieks, as if it had been shot in the backside once again...

The hit caused the already agitated boar to become even more furious. Its already blood-red eyes turned a deeper shade of crimson, making it look even more ferocious and eerie.

Initially focused on Uncle Wen, its primary hatred was towards him, but now, having been hit by Qin Fang, its rage shifted onto him. It was already charging in a straight line, but now it attacked Qin Fang in a frenzy.

"You guys run..."

Seeing that he had successfully drawn its aggro, Qin Fang swiftly moved to the side, dashing away and diverting the boar's attention from Uncle Wen and Sang Duo to himself. He also didn't forget to alert the two who were nearly paralyzed by shock.

But Qin Fang didn't have much time to linger; the same moment he yelled, he had already darted into the nearby woods, with the furious boar chasing after him as if determined to kill Qin Fang, completely ignoring the others as it plunged into the forest.

"Let's go..."

With the boar gone, Sang Duo and Uncle Wen glanced briefly at the forest, now void of any human silhouette. Gritting their teeth, they quickly moved away in the opposite direction.

They could no longer be of any help; their fastest way to support Qin Fang was to reach safety as soon as possible...

Meanwhile, Qin Fang was not in as much danger as Uncle Wen and the others thought. Though he was not as free in the forest as in open ground, the large boar couldn't reach its full speed in the dense woods, and Qin Fang conjectured the creature would probably knock itself dead against a tree without his interference...

Qin Fang ran effortlessly while continuously using his bow to attack the boar, firmly holding its attention...
