Sister-in-law from a poor family

Chapter 12 Finding Prey
It was still early, and when Qin Mianmian went out, the entire Wansheng Village was still shrouded in thick white fog.

She was still a little nervous as she walked up the road she had taken down the mountain yesterday.

If these nooses didn't work, she would really have to find another way to make money.

Now it seems that this merit system is really unreliable. Points will be deducted for any disagreement.

After making money first and solving the Fu family's urgent needs, she would study how to use the merit system.

Thinking about this in her mind, she couldn't help but speed up her steps.

No matter how fast she walked, Fu Jingbo, who was following behind, could always keep up with the right pace.

After walking up the hillside path, Qin Mianmian realized for the first time that the path could be slippery when the fog was thick.

The mist turns into dew and hangs on leaves, grass, and wild flowers, and the dew falls along these carriers.

Where leaves or grass are particularly dense, the falling dew will soak the soil and turn it into wet mud.

She didn't often walk on mountain roads, and she was impatient. She accidentally stepped on a puddle of wet mud and slipped.

'Going to suffer. ’ She cursed secretly in her mind, and waited for herself to fall into a squat.

At this time, she did not forget to throw the hatchet in front of her to avoid scratching herself when she fell.

It was too late, but in fact, for her, it was just a matter of a moment.

The pain he imagined did not come, but instead he fell into a warmth.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Fu Jingbo frowning at her with a bearded face.

'Shua', Qin Mianmian's ears turned red inexplicably.

Fu Jingbo still looked expressionless, even though Qin Mianmian fell into his arms, his eyes remained clear and unwavering.

Standing up awkwardly, Qin Mianmian straightened her clothes and moved on.

If you ignore the blush that is getting higher and higher on her face, she really walks as fast as if there is nothing wrong with her.

Fu Jingbo waited for her to walk away with a flash of joy in his eyes, then silently picked up the hatchet she had thrown away and followed her again.

The place where the noose was placed was actually not far away. With the experience of skating once, Qin Mianmian walked very smoothly on the rest of the way.

As soon as she arrived at her destination, she went straight to the place where she kept the noose. She just wanted to check the results for no other reason.

Fu Jingbo, on the other hand, had a different obsession with firewood. When he saw Qin Mianmian going to the place where he had been yesterday, he started chopping firewood, and the ones he picked were all thick and strong.

He chops wood quickly, and Qin Mianmian is not slow either.In a short time, she checked two places where nooses were placed.

Unfortunately, the first noose yielded nothing. Not only did it yield nothing, the noose didn't even move at all.

What it was like yesterday when she put it down was still the same now.

The second one was slightly stronger. The position of the noose was off and the noose was tightened, but there was no prey inside.

Perhaps the prey that fell into the trap was too alert and escaped before the noose was tightened.

Qin Mianmian did not doubt the speed of these animals and their ability to survive in the wild. These animals must have super high alertness.

However, there are traces of movement, which means that these things are not completely useless.

These nooses seemed to be placed in random places, but in fact they were all chosen based on her first instinct.

As soon as she got close to these places, she had an instinct in her heart that something would pass by.

This should be the result after she added points to the hunting skill, but because the points were too few, she only relied on feeling.

After seeing a little hope, she continued to move forward. Her expectations were not high. As long as a noose could reach the prey, it proved that her method could work.

There are six nooses in total. The places they are placed are not far, but not close.

Because after seeing these nooses that had been used but no prey was caught, they needed to be removed and found a suitable place to place them, which wasted a lot of time.Qin Mianmian walked from the foggy mountains to the high sun, and finally saw a prey on the fifth noose.

It was an animal she had never seen before. It was about the length of an arm, as round as a hedgehog, and the hair all over its body stood on end.

The key is that it also has a nose similar to that of a pig.

Is this the badger pig? ? ?
Qin Mianmian wasn't sure, but it was a good thing to catch prey.

Quickly lifting up the noose that tied one leg of the prey, she walked towards the sixth noose in a happy mood.

If you take this to town later, you should be able to exchange it for some money.

As for how much she can exchange for, she won't know until she compares the prices with three others.

Qin Mianmian was already very happy to have found a prey. Who knew that when she reached the sixth noose, there would be a surprise waiting for her.

In fact, she heard movement even before she got close to the sixth noose.

I quickly walked over and took a look, and there was another thing with a pig nose struggling there.

It's just that this time it's much bigger than the previous one, weighing about a hundred pounds.

And the looks are very different!
Qin Mianmian could tell at a glance that this was a half-grown wild boar!
Get rich, get rich!

She didn't know how much the badger pig in her hand was worth, but this wild boar was definitely worth something.

No matter how you calculate it, it won't be cheaper than domestic pigs.

The moment he saw the wild boar, Qin Mianmian almost jumped for joy.

But after she was so happy, she felt worried again. This pig weighed more than a hundred pounds. How could she move it alone?

Moreover, this wild boar had obviously just been tied up, and it was struggling fiercely.

If you approach it rashly, you may be bitten accidentally.

After standing there and struggling for a long time, Qin Mianmian finally decided to ask for help.

Yes, help.

At any rate, she had communicated with Fu Jingbo several times. Instead of worrying about how to move the pig back here, she might as well go find him.

Although that man is not very smart, he is very strong.

When he comes over, just trick him into knocking the wild boar unconscious and then carry it away.

She made plans as she walked, and met Fu Jingbo head-on before she reached the place where he was chopping wood.

The moment he met those clear eyes, Qin Mianmian was stunned.

"Where are you going?" She paused and asked in shock.

Fu Jingbo didn't say anything, just looked at her intently.

Qin Mianmian's heart skipped a beat again. Could this person be planning to find her?

Just when he thought about it, he saw the hatchet tightly held in his hand, and couldn't help but feel funny.

How could this man go looking for him? He probably felt that the firewood in that place was not good enough and wanted to find another place with good firewood to continue chopping firewood.

"Stop chopping wood now, how about you come with me and do me a favor." Taking a breath, Qin Mianmian coaxed in as gentle a tone as possible.

Fu Jingbo:
She looked at the badger pig she was holding with an expressionless face.

"Follow me." Qin Mianmian said again, then turned around and walked back with the badger pig in her hand.

After taking two steps, he didn't forget to glance back at Fu Jingbo to see if he was following.
