Chapter 38 Mutual Care
Chapter XXXVIII
The blinding light of the snow made it mother and child at a loss, walking, stopping, smelling, discerning directions...... Walk, stop, smell...... Follow the ...... without giving up
For more than two hours, when Su Wu was about to arrive home, he looked behind him, and there was no follower behind the entire snow-white. He hurried to the door of the house, opened it, laid down his bag and his staff, and went out to the sheepfold.
He opened the sturdy wooden door and looked, and the sheep bleated towards him, you are still alive! He gently stroked these living sheep with his hand, and I could see these living creatures, and I proved that I was still a living man...... Thinking about it, my eyes turned red.
He looked at the home that was cut off and had nothing to eat, for the sake of Mother and Son, that day
Go out and take all the food with you. These days on the other side of the forest, I haven't eaten anything to eat when I visit them.
He wanted to go out and see the hay in the wood, which was only enough for them to eat for three days or two. He thought, "I love them, and I can't starve me to death!"
Seeing that the weather is slowly entering spring, they will send food, even if they don't send food, at least they will meet people, and there will be a way. Su Wu picked up a knife and tucked it between his belts, came out to open the door of the sheepfold, dragged out an old sheep with a long beard, and slaughtered it.
After lunch, he took advantage of the fine weather to go to the nearby woods by the snow, hugged the sheep with hay, and carried them back when the sun set. The mother bear and the cub were found crouching in front of a pile of firewood and grass. When the bear saw him, he turned over with joy and sprinkled joy at his feet.
"Why are you coming along!" he excitedly said.
How did he know that animals have a kind of tracking function along scents. He had stayed with them for a few nights, and they were already familiar with the smell of him. Even though they were too weak to catch up with him, they could find him by the scent of his body.
Mother and son followed him and saw that there was a house and a door. And the smell of his body is very strong here, and it is waiting for him here.
Mother Bear looked at him tenderly and did not say anything. He read from her eyes that life with a bear cub is not easy. He put down the hay he was carrying, touched its head, and said, "Let's live together!
He opened the door and let them in. Mother Bear looked strangely at the house, and the couch was piled with logs along the wall and topped by tree branches, and the bare ground did not dare to move. The bear climbed onto the bed and rolled over.
Su Wu came in with hay from the outside and put it on the ground, beckoning it: "Come, sleep here!"
Mother Bear still looked at him motionlessly.
Su Wu had no choice but to lie on the grass and make an appearance for it and said, "At night, you and your doll sleep here!"
He got up, and the mother bear lay down on the grass to rest. But the bear was curious to lie down on the bed for a while, and get up and play for a while.
He knew that the wound on the mother bear's neck had not yet healed, and that he must be hungry and tired after such a long journey today, so he cut a piece of raw lamb and put it in front of it. But he got up and picked up the meat and put it in front of the little bear he was playing.
"You eat!" Su Wu said to it, and he took a small piece of lamb liver and handed it to the bear, who ate it. Mother Bear watched her son eat it, and she ate it herself.
Su Wu looked at them with a smile, these two were much smarter than sheep...... When night fell, the bear lay down in his arms while he was in bed and chewed a piece of mutton (he didn't dare to eat more without food).
For a while, it was like holding a stove in my arms, which was quite warm. He knew that a beast was a beast, so he warmed it up, took it down and put it next to the mother bear, and brought a piece of wood to block the side of the bed, just in case.
He lay down and couldn't sleep, and two more guys with open mouths came...... I've done it all
Always hungry, what will they eat in the future? He wondered......
The mother bear is injured and hibernating, and her body is weak and has cubs, which scares the hungry wolves in winter...... In fact, it is very capable and can support itself and his son.
God seemed to be touched by Su Wu's kindness, and the weather had been fine for the past few days. Although the ice and snow did not mean to thaw in the slightest, it felt a little warmer under the sun.
The next morning, after the sun rose, the mother bear took the cub out and walked around. Su Wu was afraid of wolves, so he kept following them, not letting them out of his sight.
In front is a small birch forest. Su Wu watched them walk into the woods from a distance. He stepped on the thick snow and finally trudged to the edge of the forest and stopped, stretched his neck and looked into the woods for a while, why were they gone?
When he opened his mouth anxiously to shout, he saw a small horned deer in the mouth of the mother bear, followed by the little bear, and the mother and son walked out of the forest in a hurry. He smiled with relief.
He had only been to the birch forest once, and that was the day after he arrived. That day he went into the woods to get something to eat, but he found nothing to eat, but only bales of hay for the sheep. Who knew there were wild deer activities in this woods!
When their mother and son saw Su Wu standing still, Mother Bear handed the deer to him, he took it, touched the deer and touched the heat, smiled at them, and praised the eldest mother
Say, "Awesome!"
Mama Bear was very familiar with this land, and often brought back some edible things such as small game or tree roots, and Su Wu felt much more relaxed. He felt that it was unsafe to sleep in the same room with the bears like this, and that he had to build a home for their mother and son.
Just do it, he still used the original method to attack the frozen ground. Dig again after thawing. When he lit a fire under the frozen slope, the two bears were so frightened that they wanted to leave.
Su Wu hurriedly hugged the mother and son and said, "Don't be afraid, this is a way to thaw!"
Mama Bear doesn't understand how to struggle and go.
"You can't go! If you want to go, you have to leave again when spring comes!" He approached the fire, stretched out his hand to make it, and said, "Look, I'm not afraid!
Mama Bear timidly followed him to the fire, and it was really warm. It looked at him. He said to it, "We are friends, I won't lie to you!"
It was relieved to take the bear cub to bask in the sun and play in the yard.
Although the weather did not feel relieved, the cold was still there, but the ground atmosphere had warmed up a little. The permafrost had been burned twice and had been thawed, and Su Wu opened his arms and dug it up. He didn't think it was safe to dig a hole, and maybe it would collapse when it thawed in the spring.
He still dug a nest in the ground, rammed the outer wall with wood and earth, built the top with wood, put a thick layer of earth on the branch shed, and made a low door.
It took more than half a day to build a good home for their mother and son.
He stooped down and led his mother and son into the door, saying, "Here will be your mother and son.
You can move around freely!"
The little bear's mouth arched in the dirt on the ground, and the mother bear looked at Su Wu.
He lay on the ground and said, "This is your cave!"
It understood, and also lay on the ground.
"Yes, this is your and the doll's home!" Su Wu said with a smile, bending over to the outside and picking up hay to come in and put it on the ground.
When the mother bear went out, she also came in with a lot of hay in her mouth, and lay on it with her mouth arched flat.
"We are now neighbors, and we can take care of each other!" Su Wu said and bent down and walked out of the door, looking at the sun hanging in the western sky, and said with confidence: "My days will get better and better!"
