Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi have been in the deep mountains and old forests for more than ten days, they trek during the day, rest at night, and have walked into the old forests I don't know how far. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 In the past ten days, with the wolf dog Lao Qing's keen sense of smell and Xu Xiaobai's extraordinary perception ability, they escaped several times before the beast found them, but they did not make any progress in finding ginseng.

Xu Xiaobai sat down in the snow with a depressed face, opened the baggage and took out the canned food, took out the beef that had been frozen into ice lumps in the canned food and stuffed it into his mouth, melted the frozen beef with his own body temperature, and swallowed it in two bites.

Lao Yaozi also sat down and persuaded: "The body is the capital of the revolution, although your body is very good, but eating this kind of cold thing is not good for the stomach, come, I'll warm it up for you." As he spoke, he took out the alcohol pot in his baggage.

Xu Xiaobai ignored him and said coldly: "I'm not in the mood, you can heat it yourself." As he spoke, he threw him two or three cans of food.

Lao Yaozi knew that he was in a bad mood, so he didn't say anything more, opened the can, poured all the beef inside into the alcohol pot, grabbed a handful of snow water and put it in the pot, and boiled it slowly. The aroma of beef wafted after a while, and Lao Qing ran over and circled around the pot, obviously attracted by the aroma in the pot.

Lao Yaozi loved this purebred wolf dog very much, so he scooped up a few large pieces of beef from the pot and threw them to Lao Qing, who was already very familiar with the new master, and devoured them without saying a word.

"Hey, if only I could beat a roe deer to eat." While boiling the canned food, the old medicine savored the taste of roe deer meat in his heart. The meat of the roe deer that the two of them had beaten before had already been eaten clean by the two of them and a dog, and after coming out of the forest farm, the two went deep into the old forest, but they didn't expect to see any beasts along the way. It seems that the weather is indeed cold, and the further north you go, the colder it gets, and the animals have already risen for the winter, so that the two of them have not encountered any prey.

Xu Xiaobai's novelty for hunting has long disappeared, and he said angrily: "If you have a stutter, you can do it, what kind of roe deer meat do you want." He also said that he was a herb picker who had walked in the mountains for decades, and he had been in for so long that he hadn't even seen a single ginseng hair. ”

Lao Yaozi laughed, ignoring his ridicule at all, and said: "Ginseng hair is also very precious, okay, that is called ginseng, and the essence of ginseng is on that beard." He saw Xu Xiaobai sullenly silent, and knew that his heart was impatient to find ginseng, even if he couldn't find the king of ambergris, it would be good to have any ginseng to excite his tired nerves first, but unfortunately this trip seemed to be destined to be unsmooth, and the old medicine also felt strange, it stands to reason that after walking so far, he should find a ginseng anyway, but after so long, he really didn't find anything.

He sighed, chewed the not-so-delicious beef, and said to himself: "Times have really changed, when I came back then, I could see a wild ginseng when I walked three or five miles." Later, I heard that ginseng harvesting has become an industry here, and those medicine stores in big cities pay sky-high prices to buy ginseng, and the ginseng pickers are crazy, and they come to the mountains in groups to find it. In just a few years, whether it is old or young ginseng, all of them have been cleaned. It's good now, wild ginseng is hard to find, and all the ginseng on the market is artificially cultivated, so we have been busy for so long. ”

Xu Xiaobai naturally knew that what he said was true, and he scolded the pharmacists who caused the extreme shortage of ginseng resources in his heart, but he still complained coldly to the old medicine: "Xing'an Ridge is so big, I don't believe that all the ginseng has been picked cleanly." I think it's still your old guy who is not sincere, or the technology is not up to par, and I can't find anything for more than ten days. ”

Lao Yaozi didn't plan to argue with Xu Xiaobai, but when he heard him insult his professional standards, he suddenly became a little angry and grabbed the white with Xu Xiaobai. Lao Yaozi's temper is old and spicy, Xu Xiaobai is a newborn calf, the two are arguing, Lao Qing is turning around, not understanding why his two masters are arguing so much.

Suddenly, Lao Qing let out a low roar at the forest in the distance, and then shouted loudly. Xu Xiaobai was angry, turned to Lao Qing and shouted, "Don't make noise!" ”

Lao Yaozi jumped up from the ground and said to Xu Xiaobai: "Don't make any noise! There is a case! ”

It turned out that Lao Yaozi had always known that a wolf dog like Lao Qing had the characteristics of both a wolf and a dog, and under normal circumstances, it would not roar at will, because it knew that in the woods, a casual roar might attract other beasts. But if it encounters a threat, it will immediately and without hesitation to warn and help its owner detect danger in advance. Therefore, as soon as Lao Qing called this, Lao Yaozi immediately knew that there must be a situation, and Lao Qing must have found a great threat, so he was so anxious.

Xu Xiaobai saw a very serious look on Lao Yaozi's face, and knew that it must be a big deal, so he immediately stopped the noise, got up from the ground, and the moment he got up, the sword behind him was already in his hand.

Lao Qing was still howling, and Lao Yaozi yelled at the forest in front of him: "What a thing! Get out! ”

There was a rustling sound in the forest, and then a group of wild wolves came out of the forest, there were dozens of these wild wolves, obviously a wolf pack, and the one who walked in the front was the wolf king who had a grudge against Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi before.

"The ghost is not gone!" The old medicine took a sip on the ground, took the shotgun in his hand and aimed it at the wolf king.

Xu Xiaobai was stunned, the words of the old medicine were really true, when he was the pioneer of the wild wolf, the old medicine once said that the wolf is a very grudge-bearing animal, and he will definitely not give up with the two of them, but he originally thought that more than ten days had passed, and the two of them had gone deep into the old forest for two or three hundred miles, and they should have passed the territory of the wolf pack a long time ago, presumably they had given up. I don't want the wolves to follow me from afar. If it weren't for Lao Qing discovering the signs in advance, it is estimated that the wolves would launch a sudden attack when the two of them were most relaxed, and it was really difficult to predict whether the two of them would be able to escape at that time.

Why did the wolves follow them so closely that they didn't dare to attack? Xu Xiaobai didn't understand, these more than a dozen days and nights, it was clear that every night the wolves would attack, but they didn't act. Lao Yaozi seemed to understand what he was thinking, his eyes were staring at the wolf king, but he said to Xu Xiaobai: "We should be grateful to Lao Qing, if it weren't for it, these wolf cubs probably couldn't help it." ”

So it was, because the target changed from two people to two people and a dog, the existence of Lao Qing made the always cautious wolf king dare not attack easily. But presumably when Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi were arguing, the wolf king mistakenly thought that there was a rift between these two people, and it was the best opportunity for his side to attack, plus Lao Qing roared through the wolves at the right time, so the wolf king decided to come out of the woods and attack.

Xu Xiaobai glanced at Lao Qing gratefully, but found that Lao Qing was looking at the wolves with fierce eyes, the howling had stopped, but the teeth were fully exposed, and he had never seen Lao Qing so excited. And the wolves over there basically focused on Lao Qing, but they didn't pay much attention to Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi.

Lao Yaozi snorted and said, "The wolf and the dog are really feuding. ”

He is naturally right when he says that wolves and dogs are inherently incompatible. But what he didn't know was that the wolf dog produced by the hybrid of wolf and dog was a thorn in the eye of the wolf pack, and the wolf pack thought that such a hybrid was a shame for the entire wolf clan, and once it was touched, the mongrel must be torn to pieces before it could stop. After all, Lao Qing has more habits like dogs, and when he encounters a wolf pack that wants to eat himself, he will naturally sprout a strong hatred.

The battle is about to break out, the wolf king is thinking, and the old medicine is also thinking. This time the situation was completely different from last time, last time the wolf king couldn't figure out the details of the two, and was scared back by Xu Xiaobai's clean and neat beheading. But this time, since the wolf king dared to appear for the second time, it proved that it no longer cared about Xu Xiaobai's threat. It was determined to attack.

"Old green cover, let's go up the tree!" At the same time as the old medicine gave the command, his body had already begun to move, and he quickly ran towards the nearest tree. He moved unusually well, not in the slightest like a man of nearly fifty. Xu Xiaobai was slightly stunned, understood what he meant, and knew that he was going to condescend to deal with the wolves, wolves can't climb trees, as long as the two of them go up the tree, they will be invincible. However, with so many wolves, can Lao Qing cope with it? What if Lao Qing is bitten to death?

Not thinking about this, he instinctively followed the old medicine man and ran towards the tree. At this time, the old medicine was already climbing up. The wolf king saw that the two were going up the tree, where could they be given a chance, and immediately launched an order to attack, and dozens of wolves rushed forward and ran towards the two.

"Wang!" Lao Qing roared and ran towards the wolf that rushed to the front, the wolf was distracted by it and tore with it, and several other wolves hurriedly followed, fighting with Lao Qing. Although he is single, he is not afraid at all, it is a hunting dog raised by hunters, he has enough physical food every day, and his body is much larger than that of ordinary dogs. These wolves have been patrolling in the snow-capped mountains for many days, and the prey has hibernated, and the wolves have not had a mouthful, they are all relatively thin, and the old and young occupy a very advantageous position in size. It alone blocked the attack of the three wolves, and taking advantage of this respite, Lao Yaozi had already gone up to the branch, and raised his hand to shoot one of the three wolves who were besieging Lao Qing.

The wolves' footsteps paused slightly, as if they were startled by the gunshot, but the wolf king did not panic and continued to order the wolves to attack. The wolves regarded the wolf king's orders as heavenly principles, and no matter how fearful they were, they did not dare to disobey its orders. The wolves roared and rushed up again. With the help of the old medicine, Lao Qing got a respite and bit the other wolf that was besieging him, but his neck was also scratched by the wolf's paws, and he was drenched in blood. It felt pain, its blood was stimulated, it looked up to the sky and roared, and it actually had a bit of a wolf howl, and set up to meet more wolves rushing towards it.
