The next morning, after Han Zheng finished his breakfast at home, he came over and called Yun Huaying. The two of them carried baskets and went into the mountains. Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan did not follow them to be the third wheel today.
"Yun Zhiqing, Comrade Han, you are going into the mountains again today."
Zhong Furong appeared in front of them again in time. Yun Huaying was not surprised at all and responded naturally: "Well, Han Zheng has never eaten black fir mushrooms. Let's go to the mountains to pick some fresh ones and cut down a tree to make a desk."
"Sister Huiyu and the others said that it was very tiring to pick mushrooms in the mountains these days, so they are all resting at home today, so you two can go alone." Zhong Furong said with a smile, looking innocent and carefree.
Yun Huaying curled her lips slightly. "Well, Lin Shan and the others also said they were very tired. They won't go to the mountains to pick mushrooms today. They just said they want to go to the Nanzhu Nanwan Brigade next door with Grandpa Han and Grandma Han."
When Zhong Furong heard that Lin Shan and the others were going out, and that the two elders of the Han family would also go out, her heart moved and her smile deepened. "Okay, you guys go quickly, I also need to go wash clothes."
After separating from her for a distance, Yun Huaying whispered, "She will definitely seize this great opportunity today."
Han Zheng didn't look back, but he glanced at the small adobe house not far away. "Huaying, has Ge Yuanjun behaved abnormally recently?"
"No, he had no contact with Zhong Furong at all. He kept to himself every day, and only exchanged simple greetings with villagers and other educated youth when he met them. He used to work on time, but when he had no work recently, he was tidying up and repairing the house. He even chopped firewood in the mountains for three consecutive days to stock up on firewood for the winter."
"He's quite patient."
Han Zheng has seen many people like this and is most wary of him. He has been investigating him these days, but has not found anything unusual so far.
Yun Huaying also asked the magic vine to keep an eye on him. If he was involved with Zhong Furong, he would not take action after her identity was exposed.
"He'll be exposed sooner or later."
The two of them quickly reached the mountain, and Yun Huaying took him straight to the den of the gray wolf mother and cub. They were not in the den now. The magic vine had notified them and they were already on their way back.
“Ouch!”
Normally, they would not howl when they smelled the scent of Yunhuaying, but today, when they saw the strange man next to her, the gray wolf mother and son stopped not far away, staring at Han Zheng with extremely fierce eyes, and their sharp teeth were grinding.
When Han Zheng saw the two wild wolves, he instinctively protected Yun Huaying behind him, "Huaying, be careful."
"It's okay, they haven't seen you before, they are just on guard against you."
Yun Huaying patted his back gently, came out from behind him, and said to the Gray Wolf and his son, "Gray Wolf, this is my partner. He's a good person."
After the magic vine conveyed the message to them, the gray wolf mother and son almost simultaneously retracted their fierce eyes, but there was a hint of wariness in the way they looked at Han Zheng.
The little wolf cub has grown up now and is not as clingy as before. He is becoming more and more like a gray wolf. However, when he saw Yun Huaying, he still pulled her trouser legs in a humane way, with a hint of grievance in his fierce eyes.
Yun Huaying knew that it was asking for a hug in a cool way, so she squatted down and gave it a hug in a funny way.
Han Zheng, who was standing next to him: "......"
This wolf is indeed very intelligent and even knows how to ask for a hug.
Yun Huaying hugged the little wolf cub and also doted on the wolf-like gray wolf. Seeing that it had many scars on its body, she quickly took out some medicine from her pocket, touched the wound, and said, "Lie down, I'll apply medicine for you."
The gray wolf understood what she meant and immediately lay down on all fours, rubbing its head gently on her wrist.
Han Zheng was overwhelmed with admiration when he saw how docile the two wild wolves were, treating her like a friend. He slowly squatted down beside her and asked a crucial question: "Huaying, you said before that when you met this gray wolf, it had just given birth. It's only been three months. How did this cub grow so big?"
The wolf cub in front of me is about the same size as an adult wolf. It is definitely not a three-month-old wolf cub.
Yun Huaying didn't know how to explain it for a moment. She really couldn't make up for this lie. The little wolf cub had stayed in the space for nearly a month, growing up under the flow rate of space. With the nourishment of spiritual power, its growth rate naturally could not be explained by normal scientific theories.
Han Zheng saw the confusion in her eyes and spoke before she could say anything: "Huaying, if it's inconvenient, don't say it. Just pretend I didn't ask."
"Well, it's really not convenient for me to explain."
Yun Huaying suppressed her inner conflict, patted the wolf cub's head, and simply said, "Although it has grown to be almost the same size as an adult wolf, it is indeed only three months old."
Han Zheng guessed that she must have given the wolf cub a special growth medicine. The Yun family's medical heritage was rather mysterious, so it was possible that they had such a special medicine. He cautiously stopped asking and changed the subject: "Huaying, can I touch them?"
"Sure, you can touch it."
A magic vine conveyed the message in advance. When Han Zheng touched the little wolf cub's head, it did not resist and let him touch and fiddle with it.
"Han Zheng, they love to eat fruit. Take out the apples from the basket and give them to them."
Every time Yun Huaying came, she would put some fruits of all kinds into the cave. The mother and son had big appetites and could eat more than ten pounds of food in one meal. In addition, they usually went out hunting and catching wild game, so they had plenty of food, so both mother and son grew fat and strong.
Han Zheng gave the mother and child an apple each. Seeing them open their mouths and bite into it, they finished it in two crunchy bites without dropping any fruit residue. He smiled and said, "I heard that wolves are carnivores. I didn't expect them to eat fruit too."
"They also like to drink milk and malted milk." Yun Huaying told him with a smile.
Han Zheng: "...Raising two wolves is quite expensive."
After applying medicine to the gray wolf, Yun Huaying asked Han Zheng to take out his weapon, demonstrate the action of shooting in front of them, point to the southeast direction, communicate with them over and over again, signaling them to lead the way.
This time the magic vine did not transmit any sound, but the gray wolf understood it. He pulled at Yun Huaying's trouser legs, his sharp and fierce eyes rolling something, and he howled towards the southeast.
Seeing that it understood, Yun Huaying immediately said, "Lead the way, take us there."
The two wolves led the way in front, and the two of them followed closely behind. Both of them had good physical strength, but it was far inferior to the wolves. Yun Huaying was exhausted after running five or six miles in the mountains.
“Ah…Ah…”
The little wolf cub grabbed her legs and kept howling, pointing at the mountain opposite.
After receiving the message from the magic vine, Yun Huaying understood and said to Han Zheng, "It should be in the mountain opposite."
Han Zheng was in better physical condition than her, so this short distance was nothing to him. He supported her with one hand, letting her lean on him to catch her breath, and said to her, "Huaying, can you stop them from howling?"
"Don't shout, don't alarm anyone."
Yun Huaying patted the heads of the gray wolf mother and cub, signaling them to be quiet and keep still.
The gray wolf mother and cub immediately obeyed and stopped howling. They were smart enough to run to the hill ahead to find out the situation.
