250 Back to the Jungle
◎ In their eyes, they completely trust Ye Zhizhi.◎
On the vast plain, wolves and squirrels were bustling about. They were very interested in the box and gun left by Ye Zhizhi and treated them as toys.
Ye Zhizhi, Da Mo, Xiao Hua, Yin Yi and a group of friends strolled out of the canyon.
She is still the Wolf King, but her skills have not improved much over the years. She is definitely not as good as Yin Yi now.
In the future, she will often travel back and forth between the jungle and the base. Ye Zhizhi plans to pick up her hunting skills again. When the wolf pack goes hunting together, she, the wolf king who has disappeared for five years, will definitely lead the wolf pack to hunt. She does not want to embarrass the wolf king, nor does she want the wolves to be disappointed in her.
Of course, if we talk about progress, she has made some progress. Her five senses can now be used freely. And perhaps because she has been deliberately training her five senses, now in the jungle, she finds that she can sense the movements of prey from farther away and can more easily capture the movements of the jungle.
Ye Zhizhi wanted to train her skills seriously, so she did not choose the jungle outside the canyon, but went to another place, which was the area where she was carried by the giant eagle.
Although it is far, it is actually not that far away. It is just separated by several high mountains. There are also rich survival resources there, but there are no natural barriers. It is a hunting ground for many giant predators and is more dangerous.
This is also the escape route that Ye Zhizhi found for the wolf pack. If there is a problem with prey in the canyon area in the future, the wolf pack can come out here to hunt. Even if the competition is greater, the wolf pack will definitely be able to grab the prey.
Yin Yi and the others all knew the location and had even found a relatively safe and short route. They rushed there without stopping, and it was already evening.
The evening is the busiest time.
Ye Zhizhi took a breath and ran at full speed to catch up with Yin Yi and the others. It took a little bit of effort for her, but she quickly recovered her energy.
She and the wolf pack hid in the hidden grass. Ye Zhizhi looked up at the sky. There was only rosy clouds in the sky, but no giant eagles. It seemed that they were lucky today and did not encounter a group of giant eagles out hunting.
Without the threat from the sky, these on land are nothing to be afraid of. Ye Zhizhi first cooperates with his friends to hunt together.
Fortunately, the tacit understanding they had developed over the years had not faded, and they quickly cooperated seamlessly and successfully hunted two prey.
Da Mo and Xiao Hua only ate a few dozen pounds of meat as snacks, and did not eat the whole prey. After all, after a snake swallows a giant prey, it will usually stay in a hidden place for a long time to digest it, and this is not a place to stay for a long time.
After eating and drinking, it was getting dark.
They didn't leave immediately.
Ye Zhizhi is ready to lead the predators in a fight to practice his skills.
She now has a lot of status baggage to worry about. She is the wolf king and cannot lose face in front of the wolf cubs.
Ye Zhizhi felt that he could abdicate the throne of Wolf King to Yin Fei.
She wanted to be the wolf king before because of the right to speak and to lead the wolf pack to migrate here. Now her goal has been achieved and the wolf pack is developing stably. It doesn’t really matter whether she becomes the wolf king or not.
Before Ye Zhizhi left, he originally wanted to pass the position of Wolf King to Yin Yi, but Yin Yi was not happy about it. He would rather manage the wolf pack as the second-in-command than be the leader.
After she left, Ye Zhizhi thought that since she had been gone for so long, the wolf pack should have chosen a new leader. The most likely candidate would be Yin Yi, or the more mature Yin Fei. Besides the father and daughter, the other wolves were not as competitive and could not defeat them.
Little did she know that the entire wolf pack had been waiting for her to come back.
Ye Zhizhi was moved, but this feeling was overshadowed by the sudden surge of emotions when she saw the much older looks of many familiar wolves. But this feeling of being moved was still hidden in her heart.
Ye Zhizhi thought to himself that no matter how much he did for them, it would not be enough, and he really wanted to do something more for them.
In addition to making them wary of humans and everything human, Ye Zhizhi also wants to teach them better medical skills, which they, as animals, can do.
Animals have their own healing methods. They recognize medicinal herbs, can identify poisons, and know what works best for what injuries. This is experience gained through years of practice, passed down from generation to generation, and even becoming genetic instinct.
Ye Zhizhi also wanted them to learn more so that they would be able to heal even if they suffered serious and fatal injuries in the future.
In Ye Zhizhi's opinion, many injuries can be cured, but because animals don't understand, they can only endure it.
Just like the wound on Aunt Wolf's leg, it can be treated, but they don't know how to treat it, so it turned out like this. If Aunt Wolf hadn't returned in time, or if a lone wolf suffered such an injury, it would basically not survive more than three days in the jungle outside.
After Ye Zhizhi finished his exercise, he did not go back immediately, but followed his memory to look for plants with anesthetic effects and other substitutes.
When we returned, it was already midnight and there were still many wolves walking around in the canyon.
Ye Zhizhi knew which wolves they were as soon as he smelled their scent.
Besides Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom, there was also Uncle Scar and the others, all of whom were elders who had watched them grow up. Perhaps because she had been away for so long, these elders couldn't help but wander around outside, waiting for them to return.
After seeing them come back, it slowly returned to the cave, wagging its tail.
Wolves are originally nocturnal animals, but perhaps because there were fewer prey near their territory in the past, they would go out early to hunt, and sometimes they would be gone for three to five days.
Later, Ye Zhizhi came along. She was a human who went out during the day and hid at night. As a result, the wolves also developed the habit of going out during the day and hiding at night when they did not leave their den. So after dark, there was no need for the wolves to stay outside.
Ye Zhizhi looked at the wolves moving silently under the night sky, and his heart moved.
The next day, Ye Zhizhi summoned the wolf pack. She brought the wolves of her mother and father's generation, along with all their companions, and prepared to leave the canyon. This time, she didn't even bring Yin Fei with her, leaving her to look after the house.
The wolf elders were beginning to age, but not yet completely incapable of fighting. They had years of experience in hunting enemies and were very experienced.
She was not sure about other places, but Ye Zhizhi was confident that she could protect the territory that the wolves had already conquered.
She took the wolf pack with her, walking around the territory as if on an outing.
Even the calm Uncle Brokentail was now quite excited, with brisk steps, not to mention the other wolves.
After their physical strength declined, they gradually came out less and less frequently. Wolves came out in groups basically for hunting, and the main hunting force now was the Yin Yi generation and the Yin Fei generation, so they could only participate in assisting at most.
Gradually, they will basically stop participating in the tribe's hunting activities, and spend most of their time in canyon caves, guarding the tribe's cubs and captive animals.
Yes, even though the resources here are abundant, the wolves still capture small prey alive every year and keep them in the grove above the cave. The only entrance and exit there is the crack, which is a natural place for them to be kept.
In the past, wolves would hunt and store food in advance during the rainy season and winter every year, and such food would become less and less fresh. However, it was different with live prey. They could keep the prey in the woods and go out to dig for fresh food when they were hungry.
Raising small animals in that grove also serves another purpose, which is to provide a platform for the wolf cubs to learn hunting skills, so that they can be left alone to chase prey as soon as they leave the den.
This topic has gone a bit off topic, so back to the present, Ye Zhizhi took the wolf pack out for a walk, but it was not just a walk. The wolf pack was very conscious and knew that Ye Zhizhi needed to dry firewood to make a fire. When they saw broken branches, they bit them, dragged them out and piled them aside, and took them back together when they returned.
There are many wild fruits at this time of year, and Ye Zhizhi also heard many birds singing. She saw a bird's nest on a tree and climbed up quickly to see if there were any bird eggs.
This scene overlapped with her childhood for a moment. She longed for the outside world and every day she energetically begged the wolves to take her out to explore the world and look for edible things.
She was small in stature, and she would run around in the jungle on her short legs all day long, even trying to climb trees.
Now she can climb trees very skillfully and won't get stuck on them anymore.
The wolves seemed to be used to worrying. When she was in the tree, they all raised their heads to look at her, as if to observe whether she could come down.
Ye Zhizhi dug out a nest of bird eggs and climbed down the tree nimbly.
“Ah~~”
Ye Zhizhi smiled very proudly and showed his achievements to the wolves. This time there were bird eggs!
The wolves looked at him with great respect, and then followed Ye Zhizhi through the jungle. Their old bodies seemed to have regained their vitality, and they ran very easily and happily.
Da Mo no longer hides himself. He follows Xiao Hua all the time. When Xiao Hua climbs a tree, he follows her. He also follows her to pick wild fruits and dig out bird eggs.
In addition to doing these, Ye Zhizhi also paid attention to the nearby plants and picked some medicinal herbs to plant back home.
Humans have been studying the jungle for many years, and the number of plant species they have found seems to be very large, but considering the size of the entire jungle, there are actually very few. At least many of the plants that only grow in the depths of the jungle, places that humans cannot reach, have never been encountered by humans.
So when Ye Zhizhi studied plants, she only studied those that were found on the outskirts of the jungle. Even though Qin Fei was willing to help her find rare ones, she didn't find many.
Ye Zhizhi thought that she was just an ordinary researcher now, and if she took any special plants out, she might get into trouble. It would be great if she could do the research in the jungle. Unfortunately, all the technological equipment could not be used in the jungle.
Of course, this is a good thing for the jungle. She can learn from the ancients and see how they studied medicinal plants without borrowing any technology.
Ye Zhizhi's first priority was to perform surgery on Aunt Wolf, and it took her ten days to find all the replacements.
Ye Zhizhi was unable to use any equipment for this surgery, but she knew the purpose of her studies and often asked her teachers for advice on how to treat different wounds without the aid of any instruments in the wilderness or when encountering emergencies.
She has only learned a lot of theories about this part and has not put it into practice.
Ye Zhizhi was very cautious and confirmed it again and again, especially the auxiliary correction items, which she spent the most time to obtain.
Only then did she turn her head to look at Aunt Wolf, touching her injured forelimb, and making a snoring sound from her throat.
Ye Zhizhi explained to them again that she wanted to treat Aunt Wolf's leg.
Scar stood beside his partner and looked at Ye Zhizhi seriously.
Aunt Wolf was still very calm, as if she was not afraid of a catastrophe. Little Silver Gray poked his head over and whimpered non-stop.
They all understood what Ye Zhizhi meant.
And in their eyes, there was complete trust in Ye Zhizhi.
