Chapter 21 Entering the Western Mountains 2
Lu Ren watched on and thought to himself: The wolf may have lost this round, but I hope it doesn't get bitten and killed by the venomous snake. If the snake were to kill the wolf, it would surely come after me next.
He would rather be bitten by the wolf than let that snake touch him! Just looking at it makes him nauseous! It seems that humans are naturally afraid of snakes, right? Most people are afraid of snakes.
Suddenly, Lu Ren swung his sickle in his hand and slashed forward, cutting off half of the snake's body on the ground!
The gray wolf spun around, retreated and shook its head, swinging its forelimbs, finally knocking off the snake's head.
Lu Ren looked at the gray wolf, whose half of the face was covered in blood after being bitten by a snake. Ignoring the blood flowing from its face, the wolf placed its front paw on the snake's body and bit the snake's head!
"Crack" sound echoed as the wolf bit the snake's head in its mouth. With a muffled chew, it swallowed it down! Translated text: "
Lu Ren looked in horror at the grey wolf!
Finally witnessed what true ferocity means! This, damn it, is a real wolf!
In an instant, the writhing headless snake slithered into the wolf's belly, and the grey wolf was left wanting more, clicked its jaws.
Lu Ren quickly picked up the lower half of the snake's body with a sickle and placed it in front of the gray wolf.
With less vigilance this time, the gray wolf almost hesitated and immediately picked up the snake's body and began chewing on it.
In this scene, Lu Renxin's heart jumps with surprise again, it's so exhilarating!
Finally, this grey wolf devours the entire snake.
The grey wolf extends its blood-stained tongue, licks its mouth with gory delight, and leisurely gazes at the onlookers.
Lu Ren's hand gripping the sickle tightened involuntarily.
However, the gray wolf turned its body around and meandered back and forth along the ditch. It seemed that because of Lu Ren's action, the wolf no longer regarded him as an enemy.
Lu Ren looked at the appearance of the gray wolf, which was similar to the dogs he had at home. It had also shed much of its wariness.
Lu Ren felt slightly relieved in his heart and turned around to dig a small pit on the wall of the pit, using a sickle. The soil on the pit wall was not hard, and after a few moves, Lu Ren dug a hole big enough to fit a foot inside.
When Lu Ren was digging the soil, the gray wolf ignored him, indicating that its vigilance towards Lu Ren had diminished.
Seeing this, Lu Ren continued to dig several more pits on the pit wall.
After a while, Lu Ren went from bottom to top and ran through three burrows.
Lu Ren estimated that it was almost done. The top burrow was just less than a meter away from the entrance of the pit, and he should be able to climb up by himself. Reply to the translated content: Got it!
Lu Ren turned around and looked at the gray wolf, who didn't pay much attention to him. The wolf was sitting on the side, occasionally sticking out its long tongue to lick the wounds on its face.
Lu Ren slanted the sickle and placed it in his belt, loosening his arms and legs in place. This was what their physical education teacher had taught them - warming up before exercising.
After the event ended, I took a deep breath and stretched my feet to climb the first mound. Then I turned my head to look at the gray wolf - the gray wolf didn't move, sitting there straight, staring at me.
Lu Ren continues to climb upwards.
Upon reaching the edge of the pit, Lu Ren realizes that the hole he dug is several centimeters lower than the ground at the pit's edge because a thick layer of fallen leaves covers the surface.
At this moment, Lu Ren could neither reach up nor let go. If he were to let go and fall down, what would happen if the gray wolf seized the opportunity to bite him?
However, his arm gradually became weak and could no longer bear it.
Lu Renxin thought: If I can't argue my way out, I'll have to fight back!
Just as Lu Ren's thighs tightened and his body leaned back, ready to take a risky move, a gust of wind came from behind. The gray wolf actually leaped up and bumped into Lu Ren's backside.
Lu Renya reacted quickly and seized a handful of dry grass, leaping up and flipping over the trap.
While Lu Renya's heart settled slightly, a whimper came from behind.
Lu Renya turned his head and leaned down to take a look, only to find the grey wolf staring at him with longing eyes.
Lu Ren squatted down and looked at the gray wolf. The gray wolf let out another sob, squatted down, stood up again, tilted its head, and fixed its eyes on Lu Ren.
After watching for a while, Lu Ren somewhat understood its intention: it was hoping that Lu Ren could lend a helping hand!
Lu Ren also didn't know how to signal it, so he waved his hand to indicate it to keep calm.
Lu Ren couldn't care less whether the grey wolf understood his intentions. He looked around and noticed a crooked and withered tree not far away.
Lu Ren walked over and snapped off a thick and sturdy dead branch, then returned to the edge of the hunting pit.
The grey wolf, upon seeing him return, appeared somewhat delighted, bouncing and jumping around while making continuous whimpering sounds.
Lu Ren held out the dead branch, hoping that the grey wolf would grab onto it so he could pull it up. However, to his surprise, the grey wolf seemed completely oblivious to Lu Ren's intentions, circling around the branch and refusing to open its mouth.
Lu Ren anxiously said, "Bite onto the withered branch, and I will pull you up."
The gray wolf, of course, didn't understand and continued to rub against the tree branch.
路仁仰望天空,时间真的不早啦,现在只怕已经吃过午饭了吧?自己虽然给母亲预备了中午的饭,把药也要也熬好了,可照现在这个情况,参不但采不到,再耽误下去,恐怕连母亲的晚饭都给耽误了!
Turning back to look at the grey wolf, it seemed to be rubbing against the tree branches, just like the Labrador retriever it used to own, acting spoiled.
Lu Ren was infuriated! Luckily, he threw the tree branch directly into the pit and walked away without looking back.
Lu Renxin thought: I don't care about you anymore. I've wasted so much time here, I should prioritize my mother!
Suddenly, in the instant he turned around, a gray shadow quickly darted out from behind him.
Lu Ren was startled, but it turned out to be the gray wolf leaping out of the pit along the tree branch!
Lu Ren quickly grabbed his sickle and stared at the gray wolf cautiously.
However, the gray wolf paid no attention to his reaction, leaping around in joy. Translated:
Road Ren dumbfounded - Is this thing a wolf or a dog?
Road Ren pushes through the grass, the gray wolf sometimes in front, sometimes behind, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right, accompanying Road Ren all the way.
Road Ren has gone from initially worrying to not caring anymore - just consider it as his own pet hunting dog.
However, using a wild wolf as a hunting dog, am I being too extravagant? If Wang Wu and the others saw it, it would still be quite impressive! Lu Renmei thought smugly.
However, this "dog" is too dumb. I told it: I am going to collect ginseng, do you know where to find it? It just howled twice. I asked it again: I want to go home, do you know the way to Lu's village? It still just howled twice. Sigh...
Seeing that the sun has started to set, Lu Ren's heart grows anxious: "We definitely won't be able to find ginseng here. And the medicine for Madam tonight hasn't even been prepared yet!"
Frustrated and disoriented, Lu Ren continues walking ahead when suddenly, he finds himself in an open space. Looking around, he realizes that, by some twist of fate, he has returned to the platform where he first started climbing the cliff!
Lu Ren felt a sudden relief and sat down on the ground.
At this moment, Lu Ren finally realized that his whole body was sore. From waking up early in the morning until now, he hadn't had a moment of relaxation!
Lu Ren felt extremely exhausted! The grey wolf walked up to Lu Ren and laid down beside him, panting with its tongue out.
Lu Renshen reached out and touched the wolf's face. The grey wolf whimpered and dodged, its wolf eyes blinked several times before finally quieting down.
