18. Survival
"Hurt?" Xu Changlin asked.
Tang Tang shook his head with palpitations, watched him approach step by step, and suddenly saw a black dog suddenly pounce behind him, and in an instant, his heart rose to his throat. "Be careful!"
Xu Changlin turned around quickly, and the bow and arrow were instantly aimed behind him, ready to attack. Unexpectedly, when he saw the black dog pounced behind him, he suddenly relaxed again.
"What's the matter? What's up! The black dog jumped and pounced on him in fright, "What's behind me?" β
Xu Changlin listened to the frightened Wang, touched the top of its head a few times comfortingly, and said to Tang Tang: "It's okay, this is my dog." β
When Tang Tang heard this, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, knowing that this was his own misunderstanding. When I got closer, the black dog was shiny and shiny, and its fur was obedient, obviously different from those skinny wild dogs.
She stood up with her legs weak, and said to Xu Changlin with a long sigh of relief: "I'm fine, but the situation over there is not very good." Her eyes looked worriedly into the woods, and she could still hear the shouts of men and the howling of wild dogs in the shadow of the heavy branches, and one could not help but worry about the situation over there.
Xu Changlin didn't talk nonsense at the moment, and after leaving the black dog to Tang Tang, he ran over quickly.
And the black dog was obviously not satisfied with this arrangement, it circled around Tang Tang and the old dog who was crawling on the ground and gasping for breath, and grinned: "Hey, look, why are you injured like this?" β
The old dog drooped his eyelids and ignored it, and slowly got up from the ground, and several wounds and scratches on his body oozed blood, and it seemed that the injury was not light. Even one of its hind legs trembled and couldn't bear it, which made Tang Tang feel particularly distressed.
She knew that most of the old dog's injuries were to protect her.
If it weren't for the wild dog's eye on her, the old dog would have escaped by relying on his agile footsteps. Tang Tang's eyes were red, and he immediately poured all the mushrooms in the basket to the ground, regardless of the old dog's objections, put it into the basket, and hugged it himself.
The old dog was a little helpless, "I'm not lame yet-"
"Almost!" The black dog shook his head and walked in front, his steps were brisk and full of vitality, but he looked a little silly and stupid when he was rampage.
As soon as the old dog heard its sneer, he immediately glared, "Erhezi, what did you say?" I think I rescued you from the mountain nest in the first place. β
The black dog paused, looked at it with big black eyes, and said unconvinced: "Hmph, the old man only remembers the bittersweet memory." β
At that moment, the old dog was so stunned that he couldn't speak.
When Tang Tang walked back to the previous woods with it in his arms, he found that the scene was even harsher than he imagined. She watched in amazement as blood splattered the ground, staining the dirt and blades of grass red. Several wild dogs lay on the ground with their intestines distrawed, and their internal organs were all draped out, leaving only one breath to linger and gasp, and their deaths were very miserable.
Obviously, they were not killed by Xu Changlin's arrow.
Tang Tang held his breath, swept his eyes, and saw the man with a dagger in his hand and covered in blood. With a cold face, he took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the dagger bit by bit, ignoring the blood splashed on his cheeks. The solemn look of the deep eyebrows makes people feel shocked.
"Hey, hey, it hurts to death!" Pang Yingwu sat slumped under a tree, gasping quietly while muttering with a sad face, and couldn't help but hold his legs and "oops, oops".
A hole in his pants was clearly torn, and a piece of flesh was dripping with blood, apparently injured in the fight just now. Not far in front of him lay the carcass of a wild dog, and a long arrow went straight into its throat.
After Xu Changlin inspected this woodland and made sure that there was no danger, and after the remaining wild dog group was completely withdrawn, he resolutely walked towards Pang Yingwu and pulled out/took out the long arrow on the wild dog.
He calmly glanced at Pang Yingwu's injuries and said, "It's okay, the flesh is injured, it's good to take care of it for a while." β
Even if he said this, Pang Yingwu still felt that the hot pain invaded the bone marrow, like a fire that was unbearable, which made his mood worse and worse. As soon as he looked up, he shouted at the tree: "Hurry down, why are you still squatting on the tree?" β
Tang Tang was taken aback, only to find that Wang Min, Sun Shuping and Niu Yuanjun were hiding in the trees. The three of them wilted, but they were all intact, without a trace of injury, and even their clothes were neat, and there was not much chaos. It can be seen that as soon as the wild dog pack attacked, the three climbed the tree and escaped.
This is unimaginable, it was Pang Yingwu and Lu Xiangyang who were guarding under the tree with their bare hands, with a dagger and a broken branch, facing the invasion of the wild dog pack and guarding the safety of the three people.
Niu Yuanjun jumped off the tree, looked at his injuries, couldn't help but feel sorry, and said a little awkwardly: "Look at your clumsiness, I said I can handle it, you have to push me up the treeββ"
"Hey, how old are you!" Pang Yingwu said with a smile, "The little radish head also dares to pretend to be an adult?" β
"I'm thirteen!" Niu Yuanjun was not convinced.
"That's a few years younger than my grandfather! Why don't you stay honest? Pang Yingwu's voice was higher than his, and he forcibly suppressed his arrogance, but it made Niu Yuanjun angry and worried, and finally knew that he was a good person.
Unexpectedly, his next sentence completely dissipated the atmosphere in front of him.
Pang Yingwu moved his broken leg and groaned a few times, rolled his eyes, hooked Niu Yuanjun's shoulder and said, "How do you say that, save someone's life-"
"Victory in the seventh-level floating slaughter!" Niu Yuanjun answered smoothly.
"Clever!" Pang Yingwu praised, "Hehe, I'm your savior, right?" Do you think you want to tell your grandfather that I will be exempted from working in the field, and I will be offered big fish and meat every day, and I will have a good rest for a while? This is also a return of kindness! β
Niu Yuanjun's eyes widened in shock, watching his lips squirm several times, and he couldn't say anything at his cheekiness.
How did he think that the black dog next to him listened to their conversation, and immediately couldn't help but howl, "Injured have meat to eat?" I'm going to get hurt too! Changlin, look, I have a small hole in my leg! β
The sound of its roar immediately attracted the attention of several people. Lu Xiangyang straightened up, put the dagger back into its sheath, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Your dog?" β
Xu Changlin nodded and took back the arrows he shot one by one.
Lu Xiangyang suddenly became a little more curious, and carefully looked at the black dog from beginning to end, especially on its ears and tail a few times, which made the black dog a little panicked in an instant, and ran behind Xu Changlin uncomfortably and shrunk back. "Don't look at me!"
I only heard him ask, "What breed?" β
"Wolfhound." Xu Changlin replied succinctly.
didn't expect this sentence, which made the other party laugh out loud, "This is still a wolf?" The smile in his tone was particularly obvious.
The black dog was suddenly unhappy, and a dog's head came out from behind Xu Changlin. "Sir, I was born beautiful, born of a fine breed, with the temperament of a wolf and the handsomeness of a dog. Phew, Sensei envy! β
Tang Tang: "......"
The old dog lay in the basket and couldn't help but bare his teeth, "Idiot." β
Unaware of it, the guy triumphantly picked up a smaller dingo carcass and led the way to the village. Before I reached the entrance of the village, a group of people were ushered in. Although it was far away just now, the shrill whistle and the howling of wild dogs resounded throughout the mountain forest, making the people in the village fearful, and hurriedly called the master to rush up the mountain with a hoe and axe to rush up the mountain to save people.
Unexpectedly, they walked down on their own in advance.
When the black dog saw the large army coming, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he trotted vigorously to release the wild dog in front of everyone, raising his head and preparing to receive warm praise.
However, everyone ignored it in unison, and immediately rushed behind it in an uproar.
"Are you alright? Is the injury serious? β
"Why are you so unlucky? A while ago, the forest farm sent someone up the mountain to sweep it, but I didn't see these things! β
"Thankfully!"
The women in the village looked at Lu Xiangyang's bloody body and didn't dare to approach, but the young men patted him on the shoulder warmly and gave him a thumbs up. "It's a man!"
Seeing the excitement they said, the black dog completely forgot about his own storage, and couldn't help but be a little anxious, and ran into the crowd and screamed. "And my sir, I have a lot of credit! A voice scared away the wild dogs, such glorious deeds can be recorded as a second-class merit! β
"Yo, Changlin, why did you come down the mountain with Erhei this time? I didn't bother you along the way! Everyone laughed.
Xu Changlin caught the black dog, pressed it to his side, and smiled calmly: "It's much more lively with it." β
"Hmph, the master's sycophant is expensive!" The black dog proudly raised his head and posed, "A man's nonsense is unreliable, and two pots of meat are serious." β
However, as soon as its shape was placed, and before its intention could be expressed, a small cannonball was caught out of the corner of his eye, rushing straight towards it, knocking its body involuntarily.
I only heard a meow's voice burst into tears: "Uncle Sha-don't go-"
