17 Wilderness Survival
◎Silver Wolf's Gaze◎
What does it look like when a young cub pushes the limits? Ye Zhizhi demonstrates an excellent example through her own actions.
Ever since Ye Zhizhi and the Wolf King unilaterally reached a friendly relationship and their relationship progressed rapidly to become a father-daughter relationship, she has been testing the Wolf King's bottom line towards her step by step.
At first, she crawled and played around the wolf king. The entire slope became Ye Zhizhi's new place to play. When she was tired, she tried to lean on the wolf king to rest. After being rejected, she hugged the wolf king's tail and fell asleep when she was sleepy.
Later, she found it uncomfortable to sleep leaning against the bed, so she began to change positions frequently.
At first, it slept on its belly, then on its front legs, and then on the wolf king's back.
Her small body rose and fell with the wolf king's breathing. She slept soundly, drooling a little. When she woke up, the hair near her cheeks was wet.
Even at the very end, when Ye Zhizhi was riding on the wolf king's head, she saw the fangs at the corners of the wolf king's mouth and curiously reached out to touch them. Then she exclaimed, "What thick fangs! Thicker than her arm! And the tips were so sharp! They were indeed fangs that could bite through the throat of their prey in one bite!"
The wolf king, who just wanted to yawn but was forced to keep his mouth open: "..."
Who will take this kid away?
No one came to take the cub away, and the wolf king could only continue to endure the torment from the cub in silence.
Ye Zhizhi treated the wolf king's body as her new playground. She climbed onto the wolf king, buried herself in his thick fur, and rolled around happily, her tender little voice full of joy.
The wolf king's body was enormous, as tall as a hill, making Ye Zhizhi look even smaller. This was a huge challenge for her, and she struggled to climb up and down, enjoying the experience.
The wolf king had no expression on his face and was as steady as a rock, allowing the cubs to roll back and forth on his body, sliding and climbing like a slide.
But there was an inexplicable vicissitudes in those wolf eyes that were full of wisdom and majesty.
When Ye Zhizhi was playing with the wolf king, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a long scar under the wolf king's thick hair. She couldn't help but move closer to take a look and gently touched it with her little hand.
This scar looks like it was inflicted not long ago. The wound has healed and the scab has fallen off. The bright red scar is fading and it doesn't look like an old scar.
It didn't look like a recent hunting injury, otherwise it wouldn't have healed so quickly, and she didn't see it. She remembered that the wolf king hadn't been injured during the hunting before winter.
Based on this inference, Ye Zhizhi guessed that he must have been injured in winter.
She was just puzzled. Why did the Wolf King run out in the middle of winter? Although she spent most of her time asleep, she could easily guess that the winter weather outside the cave was so harsh that even animals could hardly endure it.
Considering that wolves frequently hunt and store food before winter, they should stay in caves in winter. Why would the wolf king go out?
Is it because of food shortages or something else?
Ye Zhizhi buried his head in searching and found that the wolf king had more than one wound on his body, several of varying depths.
No wonder, when she woke up, the wolf king was no longer in the furry nest beside her. It turned out that the wolf was recuperating alone?
She felt a little sad. She had almost slept the entire winter and knew nothing at all.
Ye Zhizhi got excited and lowered her head, puffed up her little face and blew hard on the scar.
It doesn't hurt.
After blowing it, she touched it gently again. Only then did she realize how childish her behavior was. She blushed and buried her face in the fur.
Yin Yi recently discovered something strange. His wolf sister was obviously very resistant to his wolf father before, but in the blink of an eye, when he didn't notice, they had become closer than he and his wolf father.
The wolf girl no longer plays with them on the flat ground, but instead stays on the wolf father all day long, having a lot of fun.
Yin Yi was lost in thought. He looked up at the wolf sister who had happily climbed onto the wolf king again not long after reaching the flat ground.
Yinyi let out a howl and said he wanted to play too!
So it howled and quickly ran up the slope, threw itself on the wolf king, and tried to roll and crawl on him like the wolf sister.
But Ye Zhizhi was a small, soft ball, and when she crawled and rolled on the wolf king's body, she looked as light as a feather. She was so cute that the wolf felt soft in his heart.
However, Yinyi was different. When he ran up to play, he was like a child destroying the house. A lot of the wolf king's hair was torn off.
The wolf king was getting impatient and slapped Yin Yi's head with one claw. Yin Yi was stunned and seemed to be in disbelief. He howled and asked a series of questions, as if asking why his sister could play but he couldn't?
The wolf king narrowed his eyes. "Why don't you know what's going on?" he asked. "How old are you, and yet you're still playing so recklessly? Look at the fur all over the floor first, then ask me."
A tuft of flying hair passed by Yin Yi's eyes. His pupils turned, his claws suddenly shrank, and he let out a weak howl.
Yin Yi felt guilty, it, it didn't mean it.
Ye Zhizhi, who was lying on the wolf king, did not move. When she saw Brother Wolf being beaten, she always felt that she was the monkey being killed to scare the monkeys, and she would never dare to be too presumptuous again.
Although this claw will not fall on Ye Zhizhi, the wolf king knows that her small body is very fragile and cannot withstand its claw.
He might become impatient at any time. Thinking of his arrogance in recent days, Ye Zhizhi shrank his neck.
So Ye Zhizhi slid down, crawled to Yin Yi in a few seconds, and raised his paw to touch its forelimbs.
Yin Yi looked down at the cub, and it immediately understood. As soon as it lay down, Ye Zhizhi immediately climbed up and lay down.
Yin Yi carried Ye Zhizhi on his back and quickly ran down the slope to play with the other wolf cubs.
The wind created by the cubs as they ran away blew up the light wolf hair, making it spin in the air around the wolf king.
The Wolf King, who was suddenly surrounded by peace and quiet, responded: "..."
For some reason, the wolf king looked inexplicably desolate with his fluttering hair.
After Ye Zhizhi was carried down, she did not crawl to the wolf king again. She crawled quickly on the ground.
She hadn't climbed this flat ground for a few days, and she actually felt it was quite fresh.
The wolf cubs were running around, all miraculously avoiding the small group of cubs.
Scar came out of his den and walked by slowly. Seeing Ye Zhizhi crawling on the ground, he swiped her with his tail in a mean manner.
The sudden force of Taoism on his back caused Ye Zhizhi to lose his balance and fall forward.
She was stunned for a moment, then looked up, only to see Uncle Scar walking by with his tail wagging, and turning back to look at her with a grin.
Ye Zhizhi was stunned for a moment.
From the time I'd observed Scar from the boulder, I'd noticed he had a bit of a bad temper and loved to tease the cubs. Before, when I saw Uncle Scar teasing the other cubs, I'd just watched for fun. Now, she'd become the fun herself.
This is not fun.
Since Uncle Scar was nice to her, she didn't mind it.
But she hadn't been crawling for a while when Scar came up from behind again. As he passed by, he kicked her with his hind legs, and she fell to the side.
Scar even stopped and tilted his head to look at her, grinning in a sly way.
Ye Zhizhi howled in anger. How could there be such a bad-tempered wolf? Third time's the limit. She was going to get angry!
She was so angry that she was ready to complain.
The silver wolf was in a boulder nest farther away, so she set her sights on the wolf king who was closer. She raised her head towards the slope and howled in complaint.
Wolf King Dad, Uncle Scar bullied me!
Scar looked up and saw that the Wolf King was not moving.
It lowered its head, baring its teeth at Ye Zhizhi and sneering. Was it the wrong person to complain to the Wolf King? He wouldn't bother with such trivial matters...?
Scar suddenly felt a strong gaze and raised his head stiffly, only to see the Wolf King sticking his head out at some point, looking down at him condescendingly.
Ye Zhizhi saw Uncle Scar's actions and also looked up. When she saw the Wolf King, she howled even louder.
Wolf King Dad, Uncle Scar bullied me!
The wolf king lowered his eyes and lay motionless. With just one glance, Scar ran away with his tail between his legs.
It ran out of the cave cursing, saying that the cub was really troublesome. What was the point of complaining to the wolf?
There is no place for it in this wolf pack anymore, so it says goodbye and sets off on a long voyage.
Ye Zhizhi looked up at the wolf king, his eyes sparkling.
The wolf king dad is so nice, he really supports her!
She's okay again!
Ye Zhizhi immediately climbed up quickly, and in a few seconds she reached the edge of the ridge. She howled and called on the wolf cub to carry her and help her climb up.
Sanbai, who had helped Ye Zhizhi climb up several times, was already very familiar with the process. It walked over, carried Ye Zhizhi to the edge of the ridge, and after Ye Zhizhi climbed up, it walked away wagging its tail.
The wolf king looked at the little cub who was climbing up quickly with a grin on his face, his breath heavy and his expression becoming more solemn.
Ye Zhizhi returned to the wolf king, leaned on the wolf king's front legs, raised his little face and howled, complaining to the wolf king.
The focus is on the horrible behavior of Uncle Scar, who bullied the cubs. He is really bad! Fortunately, the wolf king father supports the cubs.
Wolf King dad is so nice!
Ye Zhizhi's calls became more and more sweet.
The wolf king stared deeply ahead without responding to the cub, but the occasional movement of his tail revealed his good mood.
After Ye Zhizhi finished his accusation, he excitedly climbed onto the wolf king's body, rolling around while howling.
Becoming arrogant again and becoming more arrogant day by day.
Ye Zhizhi was howling excitedly, and her forehead was covered with sweat. She moved her face left and right, wiping it on the wolf king, and suddenly found that the silver wolf was standing at the foot of the slope looking at her.
Silver Wolf's gaze.
Ye Zhizhi, who was having so much fun playing with the Wolf King that he didn't want to leave: "..." Why did he feel so guilty for no reason?
She slid down, quickly climbed down the slope, crawled in front of the silver wolf, and rubbed its forelimbs.
"Awooowoo——" trying to act coquettishly.
The silver wolf lowered its head silently, glanced at the cub, then picked up the cub and turned back to the den.
The wolf king stood up and followed, wagging his tail.
The silver wolf brought the cub back to the den and put it down. Turning back, he saw the wolf king who was about to climb the boulder, and glanced at him with his eyes slightly narrowed.
The wolf king froze the paw he had just raised. He was puzzled. He had "endured the humiliation" and let the cub act recklessly. The cub was no longer afraid of him, so why couldn't he enter the den?
The silver wolf licked the cub, pushed it under its belly, and looked unhappy.
The silver wolf knew the cub's behavior these days. It didn't stop the cub from approaching the wolf king, and even welcomed it. But why was it so happy that it didn't want to go home? It hadn't come back for most of the day.
Ye Zhizhi hugged the wolf mother and smelled the fragrance of milk. She realized that she hadn't had milk for a long time and her stomach was growling with hunger.
She immediately forgot about the wolf king and her mind was only filled with food.
The wolf king, who was turning his gaze towards the cub, hoping that it would come over if she called him, said: "..."
It turned and left silently.
