Chapter 20: The Wolf

There is no light of the stars and moon, all the light sources come from this bonfire, but the steaming red flames reflect this phosphorescent light, making people's hair stand on end, it is a beast, you can know by looking at the eyes, it is not small.

Yun Yanuan slowly stood up, leaned forward, and slowly moved in front of Maya and Diana, the phoenix saber was secretly held in his right hand by him, covered with his forearm, ready to strike a fatal blow at any time.

Take a deep breath, let the body relax, slowly adapt to the blackness in the rainstorm, and gradually see the outline of the thing, it is a wolf, with a circle of lion-like mane around its neck, this is a male wolf, the body is very strong, the head is like a strong Tibetan mastiff, it does not make a sound, quietly lying not far away, looking at a few people intently, Yun Yanuan knows that it is calculating the attack ability of several people, looking for the best attack time.

Wolves, ancient creatures, have been constantly perfecting their predation skills in the process of evolution, and it can be said that they are no less intelligent than higher creatures in predation. Yun Yanuan had already found wolf dung when he was inspecting the surrounding woods before, and he was sure that there were wolves here, but there were not many of them, so he thought he was right, but he didn't expect that this wolf would be so strong, which was beyond his expectations.

He also had deep doubts about the existence of wolves on an island, but nature is such a miracle, the earth's crust splits and moves, allowing creatures to grow anywhere. Just as someone predicted, in the depths of the unfathomable sea, there may be human beings, human beings living underwater.

Although it is very strong, Yun Yanuan is not worried, the wolf is a creature, invincible when a group, once alone, it is not terrible, especially if it runs out to prey on such a rainy day, it can be seen that it is already hungry, and a wolf who is impatient, it is easier to defeat.

At this time, he can't take the initiative to attack it, which will make the three women behind him leak out and become victims of its mouth, he must block here, and take the initiative to attack a fast wolf, it must be thankless, what he has to do is to let it take the initiative to attack, and all this, in a hungry wolf, is easy to achieve.

If you want to scare away a wolf, don't show your teeth in front of the wolf, human smooth and flat teeth, will make the wolf think that you are a good bully, and human hands, for wolves, there is no deterrent.

And let a wolf attack you, it's very easy, you just grin at the wolf, show your two rows of big white teeth, and then tilt your neck slightly, let the wolf feel the beating of your arteries, the heat of the blood inside, he will soon be unable to resist this temptation to pounce on you.

Open your mouth to tell the wolf that you are not dangerous, raise your neck to attract the wolf to attack your neck, a wolf in the air is much easier to deal with than a wolf biting your thigh at your feet.

Sure enough, after seeing Yun Ya's warm teeth and raised neck, the wolf began to become restless, and made a gurgling sound in his throat, his front legs bent slightly, and his hind legs accelerated two or three steps, and suddenly jumped into the air and rushed straight to his throat.

The inner fist says that if the enemy does not move, I will not move, and if the enemy moves me, the last will come first. Neijiaquan regardless of Tai Chi Xingyi gossip, the favorite is this kind of rampage, the player with his feet in the air, once he leaves the earth, the body is no longer controlled by himself, he can't dodge, he hides a sharp saber in his hand, even the skin of a crocodile can be easily pierced into it, not to mention a wolf with fur.

Almost at the moment when the wolf jumped, Yun Yanuan moved, the wolf's purpose was his own throat, then he could easily predict its landing point, all he had to do was to keep his elbows close to his chin and throat, hold the saber tightly with both hands and stand on top of his head, and then a short body rushed forward, and the touch of the saber piercing into the fur belly came.

Very subtle, with a deflated sound, followed by a slight resistance in his hand, and under such a sharp saber, the wolf's soft belly only brought a slight barrier, Yun Yanuan held the knife in both hands, and this resistance could not even change the shape of his hand in the slightest.

The landing point was predicted very accurately, and the tip of the knife was inserted directly into its neck, cutting it all the way from its throat to its pubic area, making a hole more than a meter long. The wolf fell to the ground with a thud, but it no longer had the strength to stand up, and the wound on the belly may still allow it to fight back, but the wound on the throat directly cut off its lifeline, starting to the end, killing in seconds.

Looking at the wild wolf twitching on the ground, there was no trace of turmoil in his heart, when he was in special training, he had killed the wolf with a saber, one person faced two, but his left arm was slightly injured, so he was still very sure of a wolf alone, the size of the body size could not change this outcome, because the wolf's predatory habits were like this.

The violent rain can cover the smell of blood here to the greatest extent, but this is not absolute, when it is not possible to confirm whether there is another wolf nearby, for the sake of safety, Yun Yanuan decided to take the corpse of this wolf to a farther place to be properly disposed of, hoping that the rain can wash away the smell here as soon as possible.

The fight with the wild wolf, although it was only a step, but Yun Ya Nuan had already rushed into the heavy rain, he had forgotten that he was not wearing clothes, he walked to the wolf corpse with a big grin, grabbed its thick tail and walked into the distance, the three women may have been stunned by this wild wolf, but they glanced at the wolf corpse, looked at Yun Ya Nuan again, and then their eyes fell, and after a few seconds, they yelled hooligan, and then covered their faces and turned their backs.

Yun Yanuan woke up to his inappropriateness, but he wouldn't be stupid enough to go to the rain again in his underwear that was about to be dried out, it would be wrong, anyway, such scenes would definitely be indispensable in the future, it was better to start getting used to the life of a savage now.

Turning closer to the beach, the heavy rain and dark night made it impossible to walk faster, but fortunately, I had already made several round-trips, and I remembered what the road conditions were, but I was not too sad. Wolf meat is not delicious, very fishy, but after all, it is the muscle of a mammal, and it must not be wasted, so it is here to discredit and cut this wild wolf.

All four legs were unloaded with fur, the wolf's head was cut off by a sharp saber, and then the first thing was to peel off the whole wolf skin of the torso, which is the treasure that several people lack the most now, can make clothes, can make quilts, live in the wild, there is nothing more cherished than this.

Yun Ya Nuan tried his best to choose the position of the muscles to cut, these muscles contain less fat, and they can be stored for a long time after smoking, just like bacon, as for the belly position, where there is more fat, he did not choose to take it away, and the internal organs were also thrown directly in place, so that it could attract predators in the vicinity, and try to ensure the safety of the four people.

Wrapping the cut muscles in wolf skin, returning to the bonfire, Yun Yanuan did not bring these things directly into the rainproof pavilion, but first put them on the wolf skin, washed them in the heavy rain, and took the opportunity to take a bath for himself and wash off the blood on his body. These smells must be washed away, and human noses may not be able to smell them, but the beasts of the forest can easily recognize the smell of blood and attack them.

The washed muscles are cut into strips, placed in the windward place by the campfire, smoked and dehydrated, take out the sea salt crystals collected by Diana, and carefully wipe them on the bubbling wolf meat, first, this wolf meat is delicious, and second, the salt can accelerate the dehydration of wolf meat, and at the same time ensure that the wolf meat will not rot.

After hanging these wolf meat, I have time to put my eyes on the wolf skin, this wolf is really big, the wolf skin is unfolded, almost one and a half meters long, the widest position and length are not much worse, this is a baby, you must take a good look, the fur on the wave legs and the wolf's tail has also been stripped off by Yunya Nuan, although the area is very small, but there is also a use, the wolf's tail is ripe, it can definitely make a beautiful chest or a pair of pants.

There was no way to alkalize the wolfskin, so it had to be treated in the oldest, Mongolian way, and a rough stone was used to grind away the muscles that had rotted the wolfskin. Then the wolf skin is beaten inch by inch with a round wooden stick to beat out the fat and moisture inside, and while beating, it is wiped with hay and washed with rainwater.

Fortunately, there were more people, and it didn't take long to beat and rub it to complete all this, and then tie the four corners of the wolf's skin with four sticks, stretch the wolfskin as much as possible, and then fix it with a stone to prevent the wolfskin from shrinking and becoming hard and impractical. The wolf skin is roasted relatively far away from the fire, there is no sunlight, and it can only be smoked and dried by the fire, but not too close, if it is too close, the wolf skin will oxidize and become very brittle.
