Chapter 9 Hunting Sheep with Wolves
Early in the morning of the second day, Hua Muxi was woken up by the sound of the white wolf scratching the door, and with the gas of getting up, Hua Muxi reluctantly got out of the warm quilt.
After opening the door, the white wolf quickly jumped behind the haystack. That momentum, that speed, made Hua Muxi wonder if this end was the same as the one who was holding the pot and stealing meat yesterday.
Hua Muxi had never raised any animals in her previous life, and she was very curious about the white wolf's actions, so with a curious heart to study, she walked closer and took a look, embarrassed......
I thought to myself: this wolf must have been tamed, and he also knew how to go to the trees outside the house to solve physiological problems. It's good, it's good.
At the end of the morning, I had to wash and wash up, and there was no dry food at home, so I had to go hungry.
Hua Muxi cleaned up and turned her head to look at the white wolf who had already licked her hair clean, this closer look was really amazing.
The white wolf's body is snow-white, without a trace of variegation, like the first snow of early winter. The eyes that were as cold as Bingjian revealed a ruthless murderous intent, and only when they looked at Hua Muxi did they have a trace of warmth.
Even so, Hua Muxi didn't dare to look at this white wolf for too long.
Hua Muxi found a broken grass rope from the weeds and wanted to tie the white wolf to prevent the white wolf from turning his face and slipping away ruthlessly. She made a gesture on the wolf's neck, and both one person and one wolf were not very satisfied with this broken grass rope, so they could only give it up for the time being.
A man and a wolf finally entered the mountain.
Most of the traps placed the day before were arched by large animals such as wild boars. Only one was still intact, and a tiny partridge was caught inside.
Hua Muxi helplessly repaired the trap, thinking that she would stop going deeper after a while? Otherwise, they would have gone hungry today.
At this time, the white wolf, who had been staying by her side honestly, seemed to smell something, and suddenly arched his body and plunged into the depths of the mountain forest.
When Hua Muxi reacted, the white wolf had disappeared without a trace.
What's the situation?
Hua Muxi thought that maybe the white wolf saw the prey! I didn't chase it, and I knew I couldn't chase it. So he silently crouched down and re-set the traps.
When she walked in the direction of the white wolf's departure, the white wolf had already dragged a dead wild goat towards her.
The goat's blood was all over the white wolf's face, and it looked extremely scary.
Hua Muxi was bold and stepped forward to inspect the goat, and found that the goat's abdomen was wide open, and its internal organs had been eaten. This is the characteristic of wild beast predation, the head wolf eats the fattest internal organs first, and the rest is reserved for the old and young, women and children, and the same kind.
Although the appearance of the white wolf at this time is terrifying enough, Hua Muxi really watched Uncle Zhao Zhongxiang's version of "Animal World" when she was a child. After the carnivore hunts, it is almost like this blood-splattered appearance.
Thinking that today's rations have been settled, Hua Muxi is naturally very happy, and she does not dislike the white wolf's face full of blood, hugging the fluffy wolf's head and rubbing it.
The white wolf dodged left and right, and was very disgusted by Hua Muxi's actions. Hua Muxi withdrew his hand in a sneer, and in order not to lose his politeness, he gave a thumbs up to the white wolf again, and said, "You, white wolf, are very powerful!" ”
The white wolf seemed to be a little proud of Hua Muxi's praise, raised his head, and waged his furry tail very happily.
"Oops, I'm still angry!" Hua Muxi was amused by the appearance of the white wolf and laughed, "Come on!" Let's take this loot and look elsewhere. ”
Seeing that it was still early, Hua Muxi tied the goat to the white wolf and went around the pine forest, but did not pick any matsutake mushrooms. But I saw a small bamboo forest under the pine soil not far away, and a few spiky winter bamboo shoots.
Hua Muxi put down the basket and began to dig, and after a while, a basket was full.
One man and one wolf returned with a full load.
After returning to the small dilapidated house, Hua Muxi first cleaned up the mess on the stove yesterday. Then he went to the small well behind the house and washed the bamboo shoots and goats.
Wash the bamboo shoots and remove the coat and shred them to dry. The goat's fur has been damaged by the white wolf, and it is impossible to sell it again, but it can be left at home and made into mats later. The limbs and chops of the lamb are salted and smoked with dried pine needles to make bacon, which can be eaten for about a week. The other parts, Hua Muxi did not waste, and they were stored in separate jars. Leave some loose pieces of meat to cook a pot of lamb stew with fresh bamboo shoots.
This hunt is not possible without the white wolf, so Hua Muxi specially picked some fatty parts and put them in a pot to feed the white wolf. Who knows, the white wolf didn't eat it at all, staring at the stewed mutton with fresh bamboo shoots in the pot. Hua Muxi had to put away the raw fat meat to refine oil, and gave more than half of her stewed mutton to the white wolf.
