The Rise of a Farm Girl

They had a very hard time walking along the way. The village chief said that they would be able to go down the mountain in a few days, because the mountain was no longer suitable for walking. This was what the refugee said before. He had walked this road before. He was a businessman.

Then they started to worry again: if they took the main road, would there be any wild vegetables to eat? If there were no wild vegetables to eat, what would they eat?

We could only take things one step at a time. That night, when we rested, everyone was in a heavy mood. But in the middle of the night, Wang Jingru suddenly woke up.

Because he heard the monkey's cry, Wang Jingru woke up and looked around, and was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. The green eyes were like light bulbs. Based on years of experience, this was a wolf.

Looking around, there were many wolves, probably dozens of them! Wang Jingru hurriedly called out to the villagers to wake them up. When they were first woken up, they were a little reluctant, but when they heard that there were wolves, they immediately perked up and stood up in a flash.

They held the sword tightly in their hands, their hands were shaking, and their shaking legs betrayed their cowardice.

No one was in a good condition. The scene was a complete mess, with five or six hundred people all huddled together.

Fortunately, there are a few capable people, including the chief's father-in-law, who is a hunter after all, although old, and has a lot of experience in dealing with wild animals.

There are also several sons of the chieftain, who often go hunting in the mountains. The four brothers have fought against wolves together. Although there are many wolves, there are five or six hundred people in the village! How can they fight against this wolf pack?

The villagers were all panicking. Wang Tieqiu, Wang Tieshan, Wang Tieren, and Wang Tiejun stood in front of the crowd with knives in hand.

Wang Tieqiu said, don't panic, you have to fight the wolves with knives, and all the men in the village, be real men and stand up to protect your parents, wives and children.

The man stood in front with a knife, surrounding the old people, women and children in the middle, and everyone had to be quick.

The timid men cried. How could they dare to move forward? But they looked at their wives, young children and elderly parents behind them.

Gritting their teeth, Wang Jingru stood outside with her father and knives in hand, shielding her mother behind them.

Wang Laosan said at this time that everyone must try their best. If you fail to stop it, your children, parents, and wife will be eaten by the wolves.

After hearing this, the men in the village also became ruthless. They formed a big circle of 600 people on the open space on the mountain. The wolves also surrounded them from all sides, and these wolves were shrinking the encirclement little by little.

Wang Jingru saw the leader of the wolves standing in the east, behind the wolf pack. He barked from time to time, as if commanding the wolf pack. The chief's father-in-law stood in the crowd.

He took the bow and arrow and aimed at the wolf leader. After aiming, the arrow shot out with great force. The arrow went straight to the wolf leader. The wolf seemed to know it. When the arrow was about to hit the wolf, the wolf dodged and the arrow hit the wolf's leg.

The wolf leader was in so much pain that he let out a shrill cry. Zhang Zhenshan slapped his thigh, hating himself for not aiming well. Actually, it was not Zhang Zhenshan's fault. He was old and his eyesight was not so good.

Even if the arrow could hit the wolf, it was already very good. People as old as Zhang Zhenshan in the village had to walk with a cane.

This is because Zhang Zhenshan has been exercising all the time. The wolf leader's leg injury also aroused his anger.

He bit the sword hard with his mouth, then raised his head and pulled the sword off his leg.

Although the blood was still flowing, it was better than walking with an arrow. The wolf had a strong desire for revenge, so it howled to the sky, commanded the wolf pack, and launched an attack on the villagers.

The villagers also fought with the wolves, waving their swords. The villagers had no experience and just hacked at them randomly. The wolves were very cunning and dodged the swords and bit the people's hands. When the hands were bitten, the swords naturally fell to the ground.

People lost the ability to resist, but there were some strong villagers who fought with the wolves and killed them with a few hacks.

Wang Jingru fought with the wolf, she could only protect her mother and father from harm. She didn't have the ability to do that.

As the fight went on, Wang Jingru discovered that there were more and more wolves, and they were not just the dozens she had seen.

The fighting became more and more intense, and the villagers fell one by one, and finally they attacked the elderly, women and children.

The ground was already covered in blood, with corpses of people and wolves. The smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger, making Wang Jingru extremely anxious.

There are probably more than 200 casualties now, but the villagers have not given up and are fighting with the wolves.

Wang Jingru looked at her father and said, Dad, please protect Mom. I will go kill the wolf.

Wang Laosan was very worried. This was his precious daughter. What would he do if she got hurt?

Wang Laosan wanted to stop it, but Wang Jingru had already run away. Wang Laosan could only fight the wolf hard to protect his wife.

Wang Jingru went to kill the leader wolf, and the leader wolf also saw Wang Jingru. How could it let these humans go?

The wound on his leg was caused by the humans. The wolf king bent his hind legs and gripped the ground with his front legs, ready to attack Wang Jingru at any time.

Wang Jingru held the machete horizontally in front of her body, holding the machete tightly in her hand, and rushed forward with a leap. The wolf king bent his hind legs, raised his front legs and attacked Wang Jingru.

Wang Jingru chopped the wolf king's neck with her knife, but the wolf king was not easily defeated. He rolled over and dodged the knife. Wang Jingru and the wolf king fought for several rounds and she felt that the wolf king was really capable, otherwise he would not be the king of this pack of wolves.

Wang Jingru increased her speed. The wolf king's hind leg was already injured, and this movement caused the bleeding to accelerate and the wound to grow bigger.

Wang Jingru took advantage of the situation and accelerated her attack. The wolf king didn't dodge and was attacked by Wang Jingru. She slashed the wolf king's neck with a knife, killing him.

Once the wolf king died, the group was leaderless and the rest of the wolves quickly evacuated.

The remaining people found their relatives one by one, hugged their dead relatives and cried loudly.

There were many others with injured arms and legs, and they were also sitting on the ground crying. The village chief was lucky enough to survive this battle between humans and wolves, and he was protected in the innermost part.

The village chief's youngest son, Wang Tiegui, died. The village chief walked to the body of his beloved oldest son, hugged him, and burst into tears.

After crying for a while, the day came. After all, he was the village chief, so he called together the villagers who were still in grief.

Villagers, folks, the dead are gone, please mourn! We are alive because our dead loved ones protected us. We cannot let their bodies lie exposed in the wilderness.

Those who are not injured, come with me and dig a pit over here and bury your loved ones here! With tears in their eyes, everyone took up their tools and started digging a pit nearby.

About 200 people died, including some refugees who were bitten to death by wolves.

So many people dug a big pit, and it took almost half a day to dig the pit. After burying all the people, there were about forty dead wolves.

As for the humming ones, those that were not dead yet were killed with finishing blows. Everyone skinned the wolves on the spot.

They had no more food, so they skinned and decomposed all the wolf meat. Wang Jingru took out two cans of salt, and everyone else gathered some salt to pickle the wolf meat. After the pickling, each family got some of the wolf meat.

Everyone ate some meat and treated the wounds of the injured. Doctor Jia was old, so he was in the middle and did not suffer any harm.

Doctor Jia was also very grateful for the villagers' protection. Without their protection, he would not have been unharmed, so he was even more attentive when treating the villagers.

Every injured person was given medicine and their wounds were bandaged. It was completely dark.

This time everyone collected a lot of firewood. He was still afraid of large wild animals coming, but in fact he was more afraid of the wolves returning. The villagers were also scared of the wolves. The leader of the pack died, and a new leader had to be chosen from the pack.

How to choose the alpha wolf? Of course, it is a duel between wolves. The duel between them must have a time limit, so it is impossible to choose the alpha wolf so quickly.

It is reasonable to say that we should guard against large wild animals, after all, animals are afraid of fire. Collect more firewood and make a few fires. This can also scare those wild animals.

Now there are less than 400 people left in the team, about 360 to 70 people, and there are dozens of injured people among them.

The villagers spent the night in sorrow and remembrance of their loved ones. At dawn, before leaving, they knelt in front of the graves of their deceased relatives, kowtowed three times, and silently shed tears.

The village chief gave the order to set off, and everyone left the place, looking back every few steps. From now on, their loved ones will rest in peace here.

They hurried on their way with a sad heart. They had wasted too long on the mountain. It was too dangerous. There was no talking or laughing on the road. There was only sadness and heartache.

There was no sound of talking in the team, only the sound of footsteps, which seemed particularly disturbing in the silence of the mountains.

After traveling silently for a whole day, everyone sat down to rest. Zhang Zhenshan said to his son-in-law, "You are the village chief. Ask everyone to collect twice as much firewood as usual today."

Wolves are extremely vengeful animals, and we already have a scent on us. As long as we are still in this mountain, they can follow the scent to find us.

We lost so many people, and there were only the old, weak, women and children left, and not many young and strong people, and some were injured. We were simply unable to fight the wolves, so we could only use fire.

The clan leader quickly asked the village chief to organize people to quickly find wood and pile it up around so that it could be taken. There were several piles in each direction, and they had to ensure that the wood could be used until dawn.

The wood was piled up, and everyone had time to sit down and roast some meat. After eating, the village chief arranged for people to keep watch and told everyone not to sleep. If the monkeys hadn't woken us up last time, we would have been eaten by the wolves.

This time, no one dared to take a nap, and they kept their swords tightly clenched. The villagers thought they could breathe a sigh of relief because the wolf did not attack them in the middle of the night, but at about three o'clock, the wolf came.

There are fewer wolves this time than last time. Maybe these are the first ones, and there are more to come! Who dares to take it lightly?

Everyone made a blazing fire and held torches in their hands, but the wolves just stood far away because they were afraid of fire.

The two sides were in a stalemate for more than an hour. The leader wolf lost his patience, but he was unwilling to give up, and he was afraid of fire if he didn't give up.

The sky gradually brightened, and the leader wolf had to order his men to retreat. The wolves left, and the villagers sat on the ground one by one, their legs weak. After holding on for more than an hour, their hearts were in their throats.

But they were frightened, so they sat down to rest, and roasted some more meat while there was still fire. When they finished eating, it was already daybreak.

The villagers packed up and put out the fire. They set out on their journey again. They walked very fast, fearing that the wolves would catch up with them. Soon they caught up with the people fleeing in front of them, and the villagers passed them and continued to move forward quickly.

At night, they did the same thing and collected more firewood than the day before. At about two o'clock in the morning, the wolves came after them again.

This time, the wolves seemed to be well prepared. The villagers complained that the wolves were still chasing them relentlessly. This time, the villagers made a very bright fire, but the wolves seemed determined not to stop until they killed them.

Even though they knew there was a fire ahead, the wolves still dared to charge forward. They were ready to jump over the fire and fight with people without regard for their lives.

The villagers were used to it now, and they waved their machetes at the fire, making it impossible for the wolves to get through. When the wolves were injured, the wolves behind them would rush forward again.

These wolves were just like human warriors, charging forward recklessly, with the wolf king howling behind them.

It seemed to urge the wolves to jump over the fire. The villagers were waving their swords, and some were injured. As the wolves were about to break through, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.

It was a group of soldiers wearing strong armor. When they saw the villagers being besieged by wolves, they did not stand idly by because they were going to pass by here, so they had to clear out the wolves.

They jumped off their horses, picked up their swords and moved among the wolves. It only took them two quarters of an hour to wipe out the wolves, and the wolf king was also killed.

The villagers were saved, but the soldiers mounted their horses and left before the villagers could even thank them.

These soldiers seemed to be chasing the rebels, otherwise they wouldn't be so kind as to help them.

The villagers saw the wolves and skinned them overnight to collect the wolf meat. Without salt, they roasted them over a fire and smoked them to dry the surface. This way, the meat could be preserved for a few more days.

By the time the villagers had finished their work, it was already daybreak. After breakfast, they packed up and divided the wolf skins. After peeling the wolf skins several times, each family could get two wolf skins, which was a good thing.

Spread it under your body while fleeing from famine, and you won't feel cold or get a chill. You can also make a wolfskin mattress when you are settled.

After packing up, everyone continued on their journey. This time they walked faster because they wanted to get out of the mountains quickly because it was too dangerous in the mountains.

When it was almost dark, they finally came down from the mountain. They came to the main road, found an open space, picked up some dry firewood nearby, and started a fire.

Now every family gets a lot of wolf meat, so if they save some, they can last for ten days or eight days. The villagers roasted the meat, and the aroma wafted out.

The refugees who fled from the famine at the foot of the mountain drooled at the smell of the barbecue. They looked at the villagers eating the barbecue and planned to rob them.

The villagers were unaware of this and thought that there were no more attacks from wild animals. They had forgotten about the refugees fleeing famine. They had forgotten that refugees were scarier than wild animals.

The villagers came to the main road and relaxed. Although there were people keeping watch, they were not as alert as they were in the mountains.

Soon, everyone on night watch fell asleep. It was Wang Jingru who heard the noise and woke everyone up, but it was too late.

Because there were too many refugees resting at the foot of the mountain. They had also come down from the mountain, where they were frightened and some were attacked by wild animals, and many died.

After coming down from the mountain, the refugees rested for a few days at the foot of the mountain. During this rest period, the number of refugees increased.

These refugees' eyes are red with hunger. No matter who you are, as long as there is food, they will fight for it.

They are not wolves, they are human beings, and they are very smart! There are too many refugees, and we can cover this side but not the other side.

They had to protect the food and fight the refugees at the same time. In the end, the food they saved was only enough for them to eat for one day.

The villagers were robbed and cried loudly. This was their life! But the refugees who stole the meat had already run away.

They went to eat in a deserted place. They didn't know how to grill meat, and they were afraid of being robbed. Eating raw meat tasted better than eating delicacies from land and sea.
