Chapter 41: The Wolves of the Horse (Ten)
“Woo woo—!”
The desperate and mournful howl of the male wolf echoed throughout the wilderness.
The white wolf emerged from under the snow as fast as lightning.
Like a ghost appearing out of nowhere, it suddenly jumped up and bit the neck of the super male leader fiercely.
At that moment, the world seemed to be in slow motion as if in a movie.
Three wolf packs were fighting each other, and the whole scene was filled with the smell of strange wolves, making it difficult to tell how many wolves there were.
Because of this, no animal noticed the stray male wolf lying under the snow.
When they saw the white-haired creature emerging from the snow, Theresa, who was running wildly, was stunned. The eldest princess, who was fighting desperately, was stunned. Even the wolf cub holding a pine nut in its mouth was stunned.

Yu Yijun didn't expect Baimao to appear here. She opened her mouth in surprise, and the pine nuts in her mouth fell to the ground with a crackling sound. She didn't even bother to pick them up.
Leader Chaoxiong never expected that the wolf pack was ambushing such powerful reinforcements.
I just fought with two female wolves and consumed too much energy. I tried to break free several times, but I couldn't get rid of the white-haired male wolf.
The strong white-haired beast opened his mouth wide and bit his neck.
Just like how the super hero leader dealt with his family members in the past, he threw them out mercilessly, several meters away.
The body of the superhero leader left a bloody mark on the white snow.
Before he could get up, two female wolves rushed over at the same time and formed an unbreakable encirclement from the front and back.
The super male leader's two front legs became weak, and he trembled and knelt down, then lay prone on the spot.
It was as if there was a huge pressure preventing him from getting up again.
Finally, the arrogant emperor lowered his head.
The Alliance Wolves won a great victory!!!
Theresa walked towards the eldest princess, panting, licked the scars on her back, and then gently pressed her forehead against hers to celebrate their shared victory.
The two excellent and great female wolves, with their heads against each other, celebrated quietly for a few minutes, but neither of them tried to kill the male wolf who was already doomed.
After they recovered some strength, they returned to their respective wolf packs and families, shoulder to shoulder, with the glory of the victors.
Yu Yiyun wagged his tail happily, kicked the pine nut ball away with his paws, and silently repeated "burn the mountain and spend the rest of your life in jail" ten times.
Even if you are prepared for a do-or-die battle, when it comes time to actually execute it, you can't control your fear.
Even if the probability of fire spreading is low, what should we do if it happens?
If I were a little older and stronger, I would definitely not consider such a dangerous and troublesome tactic.
Fortunately, Baimao appeared in time, otherwise, the wolf cub would definitely not know how to end up.
Thinking of this, the dog turned around and looked at Baimao with gratitude.
The white-haired cat looked confused at first, as if he couldn't figure out what was going on: he was just taking some time to sleep on the way to find a mate, but was unable to sleep because of the noise, so he got up and bit the culprit.
Why were there several wolves surrounding him, wanting to support him and make him the new leader?
He wanted to find a partner more than becoming the new leader.
Baimao raised his head blankly and looked around.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on the female wolf that was injured but still emitting a dazzling light. The confusion in his eyes suddenly turned into surprise and shock.
Yu Yijun saw it from afar, clearly caught the emotional changes in Baimao's eyes, and shook her head.
You're done.
You're in love!
Generally speaking, after a wolf pack is defeated, the surviving wolves often have three choices.
First, follow the leader and find a new home.
The immoral leader of the wolf pack is overbearing, tyrannical and wanton, and obviously does not win the hearts of the wolves.
The next morning, he limped out of the forest wetland, with only his two most trusted princes by his side.
Not long after, the two princes found that they could no longer get prey by following him, so they left, leaving the super hero leader to fend for himself in misery.
Second, the wolf pack disbanded and family members wandered off on their own.
This war was instigated by the Zhiheng wolf pack, with the aim of killing the Zhidian wolf pack and invading their territory.
After the defeat, the alliance wolves did not kill any of the enemy wolves.
Most of the members who participated in the battle felt ashamed to stay in the forest wetlands, so they left in shame with their tails between their legs.
As for the third option, it often occurs when the leader is bitten to death, and the wolf pack will support the new wolf who defeated the leader to ascend the throne.
After leader Chaoxiong surrendered, several wolves ran to Baimao and submitted to him, wanting to support him as the new leader.
The remnants of the Zhiheng Party who were thinking along these lines soon discovered:
The new leader they wanted to support had already surrendered to other leaders.
On the second day after the melee ended, Baimao did not continue to wander around. Instead, he repeatedly lingered near the wolf pack, secretly observing the wolf pack where the female wolf he liked was.
He soon discovered that the female wolf was the leader of the pack and did not have a husband for the time being.
The other male members of the wolf pack are all the female wolf's younger brothers, so there is no competition between them.
Baimao left his original family and originally wanted to find a female wolf to form a new wolf pack, with the couple serving as leaders together.
After seeing the eldest princess's heroic demeanor and her kindness towards her family members, Baimao immediately changed his mind.
——I am here to join this family, not to break it up.
Even if the eldest princess needs a royal husband, not another male leader.
Baimao searched the entire Yellowstone before he found the female wolf he liked. Now his mind is filled with the thought of marrying the beautiful and cool princess.
As for being a royal consort or a male leader, he no longer cares!
Baimao decisively came to Christine and the eldest princess and asked to join the wolf pack, hoping that they would accept him.
Christine was knowledgeable and could tell at a glance that the male wolf was coming for her precious daughter, so she gave the decision-making power to the eldest princess.
The eldest princess has just experienced a storm. Her current priority is to appease the wolves and get back on track as soon as possible. She has no time to consider the matter of selecting a son-in-law.
Her standards have not changed. She wants to find a partner who is brave, strong, and gentle like her father.
In the melee, Baimao has demonstrated his strength.
The gray wolf will only choose one partner in his lifetime, and the princess needs to get to know him in depth before making a decision.
After much deliberation, the princess agreed to let him stay in the wolf pack, but did not immediately accept Baimao's courtship.
The white-haired cat failed in its courtship and was obviously lonely. It walked under the shade of a tree with its tail hanging down and lay down.
Blend into the white snow again and cosplay as a hairy glutinous rice dumpling.
Yu Yiyun watched the whole process from a high vantage point. When she saw Baimao staying in the territory, she jumped down from the treetop, slipped to her sister's side and whispered in his ear.
“Ahhhhh!”
Sister, let me tell you, that white-haired guy is very powerful. He once fought against three wolves alone in a group!
“Ahhhhh!”
Do you know the Zhina wolf pack? They are the bad wolves that robbed our home!
“Aaaaaaaaaah!”
In short, Baimao is very powerful!
He just has a bad temper. I kindly asked him to translate dog language, but he still yelled at me! So angry!
Yu Yijun barked for a long while, and while speaking for Baimao, he also did not forget to secretly complain.
In the end, the eldest princess didn't understand and raised her uninjured paw to rub her brother's head.
Her shoulder was bitten hard by the super male leader, injuring her bones and muscles, and she would not be able to participate in hunting for at least a month.
During the melee, the gloves that charged into the wolf pack had more than a dozen scars on their bodies.
Although it is not serious, it still requires good recovery.
The Zhidian wolf pack lost two pioneers at the same time, and the Zhixie wolf pack also evacuated three wounded members: Brother-in-law, Unhappy, and Polka Dot.
Queen Theresa was also injured, and even though she could still hunt, her condition was greatly affected.
In this situation, Baimao, who had just joined the wolf pack, began to act as the main hunting force.
The remaining wolves of the pack finally only had five left and decided to follow Baimao.
Seeing White Hair join the wolf pack, he thought of Gloves joining the wolf pack, and how they were doing well. Their bodies had become more rounded.
Several homeless wolves, risking being expelled, showed submission to Kristen in the hope of being taken in by the wolf pack.
Christine knew that they were all middle and lower-level wolves, and had no choice but to obey the orders of the leader.
The resource distribution within the wolf pack is extremely unbalanced. The leader and the prince weigh more than 150 kilograms, while the middle and lower-level wolves weigh less than 100 kilograms. It is easy to imagine what kind of hard life they lead.
With their current fat reserves, they would either freeze to death or starve to death if they left the wolf pack.
Anyway, my daughter and Gloves are injured, and the wolf pack needs new forces.
She and Theresa divided the wolf pack's territory, and needed more wolves to patrol and stand guard.
Christine thought carefully and finally kept the wolves.
But as a leader, she has to think about her family and cannot be always kind.
After the foreign wolves joined, the wolf pack began to see the emergence of true "bottom-level wolves".
Except for the white-haired wolves, there will be no food if they do not participate in hunting.
Even if they participate in the hunt, they are not allowed to eat until all other wolves and cubs have finished eating.
If coyotes or other scavengers are snatching their food, wolf pack members will not help drive them away, nor will they provide them with a special meal.
Baimao, who is also an alien wolf, enjoys completely different treatment.
With Christine old and the eldest princess and Theresa injured, White Hair is almost the temporary leader of the alliance wolf pack, leading the wolves that can participate in hunting to besiege prey.
He wandered alone for several months, but he had stayed in his native family until he was three years old. He had sufficient experience in living in groups and knew clearly how to cooperate with wolves.
Yu Yiyun watched it two or three times and completely changed her mind about the "genetic disadvantages of albinos".
The white wolf not only ran fast, but also made good use of the winter snow as natural camouflage.
Sometimes, he lay in ambush in the snow, waiting for other wolves to drive the prey to him.
The prey saw the colorful wolf behind it and subconsciously ran towards the vast snow.
As a result, the white-haired creature suddenly appeared and bit his throat.
The black ball looked at others, then looked at himself, and came to the conclusion:
Winter is so unkind to me!
After the snow covered the Yellowstone, the beavers and otters, who were covered in black fur, hid in the water from a distance to take refuge.
After several consecutive failures, the Paw Patrol had no choice but to set their sights on other prey.
However, almost every prey that stays in Yellowstone in winter is a cold-resistant "big guy" that the Paw Patrol, with an average age of 7 months, cannot deal with.
After spring comes, when there are calves and deer calves everywhere, it is the real time for the Paw Patrol to practice their claws.
It has been a long time since the dog had enjoyed the sense of accomplishment of capturing large prey, so he sharpened his claws out of loneliness.
At the same time, celebratory wolf howls were heard from under the tree.
“Woo——!”
“Woof woof!”
The victory howl of winter will be longer than that of any other season.
Because every success means their family can live a few more days!
The new wolf pack member Baimao was very well behaved. When his leader was recovering at home, he would squat beside the prey after biting it to death, waiting for the leader of his allies to distribute the prey.
Theresa walked to the still warm red deer and glanced at the mature, steady, and cold-tempered white wolf. Then she looked at Wang Fu, who was rubbing against her, clinging to her, and rolling around, trying to get a share of the hind leg meat. She felt very upset.
It’s also a relationship between an older woman and a younger man, but why is the younger brother that Ally is dating so different from his own Husky?
Alas, same wolf but different fate!
"Woo woo~" Erha Wangfu rubbed the queen's face hard, whining and begging her to share the hind leg meat with him.
The hind leg meat is not as fatty as the breast and belly meat, but it is chewy and has a large bone to chew on.
The Queen usually leaves her hind legs for Polka Dot and Checkered, allowing the two sisters to eat and play at the same time.
Today, Wang Fu was so annoyed that she gave him the hind leg meat impatiently.
"Woowawawa~" The Husky husband got what he wanted. He hugged the queen and gave her a big kiss, but was knocked to the ground by the indifferent queen.
Baimao observed them quietly with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
——Okay, I’ve learned how the younger wolf pursues his sister.
The black fur ball consciously squeezed next to Theresa to start eating, and glanced at the white wolf warily.
'Isn't this a perfect negative example? What are you learning?'
Before Baimao could put his negative experience into practice, the wolf cub hurriedly stopped his future brother-in-law, fearing that he would be disliked by the princess due to his "Husky transformation".
The wolf cub woofed loudly, asking the raven to find an antelope trapped in the snow. Then he took the white-haired man out and taught him the courtship secrets of Master Zhen'an, who had a good relationship with female tigers.
“Ah!”
Hurry, give the antelope to your sister!
White-haired followed his future brother-in-law and saw him walking straight towards the antelope. He barked loudly, thinking that Black-haired ball, who had just munched on three chops, was not full.
"Woo." You really can eat.
Baimao pounced on the antelope and bit it to death. He also considerately tore the hide for the wolf cub, then turned around and went home impatiently to pursue his sister.
"Ah, ah, ah!" Yu Yijun was extremely anxious. She blocked the white wolf's legs with a tap, and used all her strength to push him to the side of the prey, signaling him to bring the antelope to his sister.
What's wrong with you male wolves!
Getting a girlfriend with nothing?!
However, the communication barriers between him and this foreign wolf were particularly serious.
The white wolf saw the pup jumping and hopping, pulling itself next to its prey, and seemed to sigh helplessly.
The next second, he tore off the meat, chewed it into pieces, and fed it to the wolf cub in an unskilled manner.
Yu Yiyun faced the mouthpiece that was approaching and shook her head desperately, fearing that Baimao would spit the meat in his mouth into hers.
Through Baimao's behavior, he discovered two things.
In the previous wolf pack, Baimao was definitely not responsible for feeding the cubs.
Also, Baimao has a good temper, but unfortunately he is too straight.
In his view, most of them were little wolf cubs at home who were not full and insisted that the big wolf give them extra food. They would not eat but would make a fuss and demand to be fed mouth-to-mouth.
Even so, Baimao didn't get angry, but did as he was told.
Yu Yiyun finally understood what the white wolf was thinking and stretched out his paw to pat his leg.
"Woooooo!"
You are a good wolf, I will help you.
Yu Yiyun was full, but the food couldn't be wasted.
Since Baimao just couldn't understand what he meant, Yu Yijun had to call the Paw Patrol and plan to take the prey home and store it.
The Paw Patrol struggled to lift the antelope. Although White Hair didn't understand what was going on, he still helped to carry the meat back to the territory.
Christine has bad legs and feet, and just came back with a belly full of meat, ready to feed her daughter and gloves.
He saw his own son and future son-in-law, grunting as they carried the antelope back.
Christine understood immediately, walked towards her daughter's legs and turned, giving priority to the gloves with the meat in her stomach.
Gloves, who always ranked second, was stunned for a few seconds, and seemed to realize something. He took the initiative to move his body and went to eat in the tree hole with Christine.
Yu Yiyun realized that in the whole world, perhaps only Baimao, the invincible big straight wolf in the universe, could not understand what he meant.
He brought the antelope back and was just about to imitate the Husky next door, making a coquettish sound to pester the princess.
The eldest princess had already taken action. She took the initiative to rub the white fur for the first time, sending a signal of goodwill.
——This wolf gave an antelope to itself when it was injured. It must be quite gentle.
The eldest princess silently gave him a second check mark and gave him a passing grade.
Yu Yiyun was so tired that he was out of breath. He licked his sore teeth angrily and thought to himself:
I have given so much to this family.
If you two get married, I must sit in the seat of honor!
Fortunately, after being rubbed by the female wolf he liked, the white wolf was overjoyed, and the bubble of happiness finally made him realize it!
From then on, while the eldest princess was recovering from her injuries, Baimao would always bring her some food.
During the rest time when he was not hunting, he often lay quietly beside the eldest princess and helped her clean her wounds.
In the cold winter season, wounds are not easy to heal, so timely cleaning is very important.
Wolves also have strong self-healing abilities, and their saliva helps wounds heal, but the eldest princess cannot lick the injured part herself.
The white wolf has the patience and perseverance to spend time searching all over Yellowstone and invading various wolf packs just to find the wolf he likes.
Not only did he clean her wounds, he also kept the eldest princess's hair clean.
No wonder people say "lick the dog".
Licking to the end, there is really everything~
The eldest princess' injuries gradually healed, and she often walked with Baimao. Whenever they got the chance, they would stick close to each other and bump noses against each other.
Yu Yijun followed behind them, looking at her sister's dark gray fur and the white wolf's snow-white fur, and couldn't help thinking:
Will the puppy they give birth to have cow patterns?
It must be super cute!
I’m really looking forward to next spring~!
Even though Yu Yiyun was looking forward to it very much, spring would not arrive for another four months.
The wolf pack must survive the long winter before it can welcome the birth of new members.
The Alliance wolf pack swallowed up the Zhiheng wolf pack that was sandwiched in the middle. After expanding their territory, prey became even more scarce.
Mainly because there are more and more mouths eating meat.
Neither Christine nor Theresa would let the lower-level wolves starve, and they always tried to kill prey of sufficient size as possible.
In the bitterly cold winter, gray wolves need more food in order to keep warm.
Two months ago, a 600-pound elk was enough to sustain a wolf pack for a whole week.
Now, the same elk is only enough for them for one meal.
If Yellowstone were full of elk before fall, they wouldn't have to worry about prey.
Now, red deer are migrating to warmer places, and you may not see one for two or three days.
The wolves, who had not received food for three consecutive days, first felt hungry and then felt the biting cold.
The weakest cub seemed to know that it was not easy for its parents to hunt, so it did not dig into the big wolf's mouth to squeeze out their remaining food.
Instead, they huddled together to keep each other warm, and didn't even have the energy to play their favorite games.
On the fourth day of enduring hunger, Theresa and the eldest princess, who had just recovered from a serious injury, looked at each other.
The two female wolves stretched out their paws at the same time and howled to summon the wolf pack.
The wolves seemed to be aware of something unusual and followed their leader's steps, becoming heavy and determined.
Yu Yiyun poked his head out from the circle formed by the cubs and found that the wolves were moving westward. His eyes suddenly lit up.
There are supervolcanoes in the west, there are intervals, there is no dead grass.
And then there are the American bison, and the wolves that come with them.
Theresa had always known that was the place where food could be found.
She had wanted to go there several times in the past two cold winters, but the order to set off was delayed.
There is not only prey there, but also hunters.
His own wolf pack was too weak. If he failed to successfully challenge the 'Big Wolf Pack Qualifying Tournament', he would most likely become the prey of other wolf packs or carnivores.
Now, her eyes were determined.
Theresa knew that there was no possibility of failure for herself and her wolf pack allies.
When the eldest princess was one year old, she followed her father, who was at the peak of his career, along this path.
She still remembers the throbbing excitement she felt at that moment and the incredibly delicious meal.
Then, as my father gradually passed his prime and family members came and went, they never went there again.
Now, she leads her family to embark on this journey again, with the blood of the alpha wolf surging in her body.
Baimao followed behind his mate, not having any idea about the journey, not even knowing what the point of going so far was.
But if his partner wants to go, he will follow.
After walking a few steps, Baimao suddenly felt a heaviness on his back, and the black wolf cub climbed onto his back with great difficulty.
Yu Yiyun struggled forward for dozens of meters in the snow that was higher than her legs, and then she decided to give up struggling.
[Dog is playing badly.jpg]
If I keep walking like this, I’ll probably end up with a stomach full of snow before I even get to eat the beef.
Gou Mi has a lot of experience in taking taxis, and he quickly picked out a very slow wolf car for himself, which went at a speed of less than ten kilometers per hour.
There is no way, the snow is too deep, and the wolves will not walk too fast in order to save energy.
After walking for several hours, Yu Yiyun saw a mess of marks in the white snow.
That was left by the American bison, which used its head to push away the snow in order to eat the grass hidden under the snow.
The tracks were not covered by the heavy snow, proving that the bison had not been gone for long.
The hungry wolves suddenly became excited and followed the direction of the buffalo's mark.
Soon, they located the herd and were moving towards the geyser.
The white-haired boy turned around and howled at the black wolf cub.
Yu Yiyun finally understood what Baimao said, asking her not to be thrown off.
“Ah!”
Before the black fur ball could finish howling, a mouthful of cold air was poured into its mouth.
Baimao changed his previous slow pace, crushed the snow with his nimble wolf claws, and ran wildly in pursuit of the smell.
The rest of the wolf pack began to chase madly until the prey was within sight.
But their prey this time, bison, is one of the oldest animals on Earth.
Over hundreds of millions of years of evolution and reproduction, bison have become almost without weaknesses.
It has sharp horns, powerful hooves, fur that protects against cold and bites, and superior speed.
A bison being chased by a pack of wolves can run at speeds of over 60 kilometers.
Under the same hungry state, this is a cruel chase where the winner survives and the loser dies.
