Chapter 55: Chasing the Wolf

Wang Manyin trotted all the way home, and after explaining again to let the orchid lock the door, he hurried back with rhubarb.

Wang Yanqiang commanded the local dogs of each family to enter the pigsty in batches and sniff the blood stains on the ground one by one.

Rhubarb was the first batch, and after hearing it, he yelled at his master a few times, turned around and ran into the darkness under the field.

Afraid that Rhubarb would suffer a loss, Wang Manyin hurriedly followed.

"Everyone keep up, the dog of the Manyin family should have spotted the wild wolf." Wang Yanqiang's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly ordered the people around him.

He followed Wang Manyin with a rifle in his hand, and the rest of the people followed closely behind with a shovel on their heads.

Not far from the village, Rhubarb suddenly roared at a piece of ground.

Wang Shuhai immediately stepped forward with a horse lantern and shouted excitedly: "Rhubarb has found the right place, there are footprints here, and there is blood on the snow." ”

Hearing this, everyone came to the front.

In the faint light of the dead wind lamp, a series of messy animal footprints can be seen on the residual snow.

One string is clearly a pig's hoof print, while the rest is clearly a wolf's paw print. Looking at the direction of travel, it seemed that he went straight to the old grave behind the village.

Between the footprints, you can still see a few drops of blood.

Wang Yanqiang said to everyone again: "The wild wolf is driving such a big pig, it shouldn't have run far, everyone follow closely, don't fall behind." Full silver, hello to your dog! ”

After seeing the footprints, a young man named Lin Lisheng couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really a wolf!" Brother Wang, I can't figure it out, how did the wolf drive such a big flower pig away from the pigsty? ”

"I don't know about this, it's the first time I've seen you." Wang Manyin shook his head and replied.

In fact, he was also a little curious.

He had just seen Wang Xiugang's pigsty, the fence was more than a meter high, there were no gaps around it, and the fence gate had not been damaged.

Even if a thief steals it, it will be difficult for such a big fat pig to get out quietly.

But the two wild wolves did it, and this thing is really evil.

However, Wang Mancang was well-informed, and answered everyone's doubts: "Wolves can land, after they enter the pigsty, they first bite the pig's ears, and then drive the pigs to run in circles in the pigsty." Under the pain, the pig must have run out, and it was driven away......"

"Then why don't the pigs bark?" Liu Xiangyang interjected.

"When it gets dark, the animals can't see anything at all, and they don't call much, unless there is too much noise. Not to mention pigs, even cows and donkeys......"

The crowd was talking, and the steps were not stopping.

The conditions for the pursuit tonight were much better than those on a snowy night.

First of all, the moon was very bright, and everyone's vision was not too restricted. Even without the gas lanterns, they could see the mountain roads.

Secondly, the snow has not yet melted, and there will be traces in many places.

Two wild wolves drove the sow away, with intermittent tracks to follow along the way. In addition, there are rhubarb and other earth dogs to follow, and everyone will naturally not lose it.

After crossing the old grave, Rhubarb suddenly let out a strange cry again.

Wang Manyin immediately understood, and hurriedly turned his head and said, "Uncle Yanqiang, those two wolves are probably not far from us......"

"Hurry up, everyone, don't be left behind!" Wang Yanqiang hurriedly shouted again.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense...... It's not that I'm afraid! Such a large group of people, with weapons in their hands, are not afraid of ten wolves.

When the group crossed a cliff again, Rhubarb barked again.

Wang Shufeng followed the direction of the dog's barking and raised the angry wind lamp in his hand high.

Then, a sharp-eyed man shouted, "See, they didn't run far, they were just ahead." ”

At this time, Wang Manyin also saw it clearly. There are two black shadows on the dirt road, one on the left and one on the right, driving the flower pig forward.

It's incredible! It's really like what Wang Mancang said.

One of the wolves bit the pig's ear and flapped its tail to drive it away. The other kept looking back, revealing green eyes.

may be the reason for the suppression of the bloodline, the flower pig seems to be stupid, and is honestly driven forward, not even daring to scream.

Even the wild wolf can control the direction of the pig's advance, pumping the pig's left buttocks with its tail, and the pig will turn to the right, and hit the right, and the pig will turn to the left.

Moreover, these two wild wolves also belong to the masters who sacrificed their lives and wealth, knowing that there were humans behind them, they still did not abandon their prey and escaped.

Rhubarb wanted to rush up several times, but was scolded by Wang Manyin.

"Don't look any further, take care of your dogs. I'll shoot it!! The pinnacles give me light! ”

After Wang Yanqiang scolded everyone, he squatted and half-knelt on the ground, raising his gun to aim and shoot.

He was the backbone militia of the Commune, and he often participated in the training organized by the Commune, which was different from ordinary militia, so his posture was very standard.

"Phew!"

A gunshot rang out.

Wang Manyin only felt his ears buzzing.

The earth dogs around him were even more frightened with their tails between their legs, and they grabbed the back of the crowd one after another, even rhubarb.

Through the light, Wang Manyin clearly saw that there was a wild wolf among them.

The body shook a few times and rolled down on the snow.

"Hit, hit!!" Someone shouted excitedly.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the wounded wolf jumped up again, apparently not hitting the vital point.

"Phew!"

Wang Yanqiang fired another shot.

This time, it was empty, hitting the ground in front of the wolf, splashing a cloud of snow.

The two wild wolves probably understood that they were no match for the humans behind them, so they reluctantly put down the prey in their mouths and quickly ran towards the darkness.

In just a dozen seconds, it completely disappeared.

However, after the flower pig was freed, he was humming and spinning in place.

This guy looked a little miserable, his ears were bitten with blood, and there were still a few claw marks on his body.

"What should I do, do I want to chase it?" Wang Manyin turned his head to look at Wang Yanqiang and asked.

Judging by the blood on the ground, the wounded wolf should not have been able to run far. If you bring someone to chase it now, there is a high probability that you will be able to catch up.

"Leave half of the people to guard the flower pig, and the rest continue to chase me!" Wang Yanqiang did not hesitate and gave the order directly.

He still has bullets on hand, and he can fire a few more shots when he encounters a wild wolf.

In this way, more than twenty people were divided into two waves.

Wang Manyin still led the way with rhubarb at the front.

In fact, there is no need for rhubarb at this time, the footprints and blood droplets in the snow are obvious, and I am not afraid of losing them at all.

As soon as they walked forward four or five hundred meters away, they saw a pool of blood.

Obviously, the wolf was not lightly injured, which made everyone a little more confident.

It was only soon that they discovered that they underestimated the wolf's desire to survive.

The crowd walked along the undulating cliffside for half an hour, chasing them out of five miles, and found several pools of blood on the way, but they never saw the fallen wolf carcass.

However, the interval between the blood stains is getting closer and closer, and it is estimated that the guy should not be far from death.

When he crossed a deep ditch, Rhubarb screamed at a certain place. By the light of the moon, everyone finally saw a black shadow crawling upward.

Probably too badly injured, it struggled several times and didn't climb up the dirt slope.

As for the other wolf, it was long gone.

"There, there!!"

With the shouts of everyone, Wang Yanqiang took advantage of the situation to raise his gun.

After two intermittent gunshots, the wolf rolled into the bottom of the deep ditch and did not get up.

The group stood on the slope of the ditch and waited for two minutes, and when they saw that the guy was no longer moving, they cautiously approached.

Afraid that the wild wolf would pretend to be dead, Wang Manyin deliberately picked up a shovel and slapped his head a few times.

From a closer look, this guy is not small, almost fifty pounds. On the thick fur, two blood holes appeared.

Then someone untied his belt and tied the wolf's limbs, and hung it on the shovel handle and lifted it.

Although they chased all the way for more than ten miles, everyone did not feel tired at all at the moment, and their faces were full of excitement and joy.

These days, wolf skin is a good thing, and it is precious.

If you get it to the supply and marketing cooperative, you can sell it for dozens of dollars. The only thing that is a bit of a pity is that the wolf skin was gunned out of two holes, and the price has to be reduced a lot.
