Disaster Apocalypse: Farming, Family, and My Hidden Secret Space-Chapter 246. Encounter

"Master, it’s not that we’re not asking, but rather, you should hide first, and we’ll go rescue Xu An and the others. This way, we have no worries and can fully engage these wild boars. Rest assured, Master, we’ll return without fail, and tonight, there’ll be roast wild boar to eat."

He had originally planned to do this, but the Master’s words were so heartwarming that they justified their all-out efforts to protect him.

"Master, don’t hesitate any longer. Time is life, quickly climb the tree." Seeing the Master still unwilling to leave, Old Zhou’s tone became more severe.

Luo Song ultimately decided to heed Old Zhou’s advice, and chose a sturdy tree with Luo Lai to climb up.

Old Zhou’s reasoning was correct; if he remained, these people indeed would be hesitant and unable to fully exert themselves.

Below the slope, the ferocious wild boars frantically rammed against the trees. Luo Song couldn’t help but worry for the guards hiding in the trees, his heart tense.

Seeing that the Master was well-hidden, Old Zhou, undeterred, swiftly led his men back, charging towards the five enraged wild boars.

Old Zhou moved fast, aiming to take advantage of the wild boars’ distraction and solve the problem unexpectedly.

The glinting machete swung towards the frenzied wild boars almost instantly, hoping to severely injure one or two, yet in the moment the blade struck, they retreated quickly.

Except for the stronger Old Zhou, who stabbed a boar’s abdomen with one chop, the others didn’t inflict any substantial harm, merely slashing the outer skin without drawing blood.

The blow was heavy but didn’t cause serious injury, instead further enraging the boars; the beasts, ignoring the two-legged creatures in the trees, opened their foul mouths spewing heat, clawed their fore and hind hooves angrily, screamed terrifyingly, and charged at Old Zhou and the others with bloodshot eyes, bent on tearing apart the bipeds in front of them.

Instantly, several people and wild boars got into a melee, prompting the guards in the trees to leap down and join the fray.

The wild boars’ speed was agile, combined with their brute charging power, they were quite lethal.

Fortunately, the guards weren’t useless; previously tied by the Master, were now fiercely aggressive, dodging and maneuvering, always wielding their weapons at the boars.

Clearly unprovoked, just passing by, yet becoming the target for these annoying creatures; everyone was holding a grudge.

Soon the boar stabbed by Old Zhou, fell heavily after Old Zhou slashed its neck and Xu An another chop to the abdomen.

This scene brightened everyone’s spirits, intensifying their attacks, as the boars accumulated more injuries.

In a flurry of blades and swords, another boar fell to the ground. With two of their kind down, rather than retreating, the remaining three were spurred into a final frenzy.

Three boars, regardless of anything, opened their bloody mouths and charged straight at Old Zhou, whose blade dripped incessantly with blood.

Old Zhou had just pulled his machete from a boar’s body, instinctively side-flipped avoiding the first boar charging, his blade almost automatically slashed towards the boar’s head, one ear dropping to the snowy ground as blood sprayed, staining the snow like plum blossoms, adding a touch of color to this world, albeit a rather bloody shade.

"Old Zhou, watch out!" Xu An, close behind, charged towards the nearest boar, but unfortunately, though fast, the boars were faster, especially when enraged.

Having dodged the first boar and struck it, Old Zhou barely managed to brace the enormous impact of pig’s head with his blade, retreating swiftly under force, yet another boar came unceremoniously biting at the biped held by its comrade.

"Old Zhou... up the tree!" Luo Song, witnessing the moment clearly, shouted in shock.

Old Zhou heard the Master’s words of course, but at that moment under immense pressure, how could there be any opportunity to climb a tree, even with a tree so near, as long as his blade left the boar’s skull, he would be pierced by the long tusks in the next instant.

Speaking of which, the boar’s skull, coated with hard mud and resin, was indeed tough; the enormous impact had neither pierced it nor deterred him from retreating, with another lurking to bite his neck.

Just as Old Zhou thought his life was at an end, amidst everyone’s panic, the boar with its foul mouth suddenly fell, its body twitching, followed by the one about to topple Old Zhou, who also followed suit, this time everyone heard the sound of a piercing arrow.

Dangerously saving his life, Old Zhou fell on the ground due to the sudden relief of pressure, while Xu An’s group swiftly dispatched the two still gasping boars with all their might, turning them into sieves.

By the time everyone came to, the two boars were beyond recognition, blood staining the snow, exhausted and directly sitting on the ground.

The arrow on the boar’s forehead, and one piercing its abdomen lying in the snow, indicated someone had intervened to save them.

Their gaze fixed fifty meters away up the slope, where stood a figure wrapped in fur.

Regaining composure yet still feeling fearful, Old Zhou stood up and faced Hua Jin. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Thanks, brother, for the assistance."

"Thank you," the others also echoed in gratitude.

Truly grateful, if it weren’t for the person’s sudden appearance and timely aid, Old Zhou and the rest could have met a dire fate.

Luo Song also descended from the tree, having witnessed the moment most clearly.

Though unaware of how the person appeared, if it weren’t for those arrows shot from the sleeve, Old Zhou truly would have been endangered.

Both surprised and delighted, Luo Song didn’t wait for Luo Lai’s swift run down, first stopping everyone’s courtesy and then seriously checking everyone’s injuries, relieved to find none were life-threatening.

Then facing the person who only exposed a pair of eyes, age indiscernible.

"Thanks, brother, for your assistance," Luo Song gratefully bowed.

The brothers had been by his side for years, losing any was not what he wanted to see, this bow was indeed sincere.

A distinct refreshing voice rang out, familiar enough for Hua Jin’s eyes to brighten, he focused intently on the distant figure, seeing those eyes covered with ice crystals yet still familiar, Hua Jin was really slightly surprised.

It truly was... Brother Luo Song.

Having a fantastical feeling, Brother Luo Song surprisingly appeared in the Qinggu Mountain range.

It had been a year, never expecting to see an old friend again, Hua Jin happily walked forward.

"...Is it Brother Luo Song?" Hua Jin confirmed.

A soft sweet voice startled Luo Song, making him jerk his head up, astonished, looking at the slightly thin person even wrapped tightly ahead who couldn’t believe it.
