◎Wolves: Food delivered to your door?◎
When Ye Zhizhi discovered that there was an ordinary climbing plant on the ground that was everywhere, and a thumb-sized red fruit on the tree, the effect was more obvious when mixed with healing herbs.
At that moment, Ye Zhizhi's eyes sparkled.
The hemostatic grass commonly used by wolves, combined with the wolves' own strong physique, has a very good healing effect. Now, with the addition of these ordinary climbing leaves and bitter fruits, the effect is actually one-third better. For the same bloody wound, it only takes three days to achieve the effect that would take five or seven days.
Ye Zhizhi finally got such good results from the experiment, and immediately immersed himself in studying these three plants. Not only did he dry them into herbs and grind them into powder, he also studied the ratio of the two herbs.
The wolves' limbs couldn't do such delicate work as humans, so they usually chewed herbs and applied them to the wounds. But now she chewed three things at the same time and applied them, which had the same effect as if she had crushed them directly.
This is also what Ye Zhizhi has always pursued and wanted to study. It does not require complicated skills. It is just like prescribing a Chinese medicine prescription. Different plants are mixed together directly to produce effects. Even animals can use it directly as long as they remember it.
Ye Zhizhi let them smell the mixed plants she had prepared in the best proportion.
The wolves kept watching Ye Zhizhi tinkering with some strange things. At first they didn't understand what the purpose of these things was, but after watching them for a long time they only had a vague idea.
They were used to it. After all, this wolf cub had just learned to walk and had always liked to play with these things, and the wolf pack was used to watching.
Although they often don't understand, they know that Ye Zhizhi never does anything that is not beneficial.
When they saw with their own eyes the healing effects of the plants that Ye Zhizhi had created, the wolves understood. Compared to the shock of the young wolves, the older wolves were shocked but not surprised.
There is nothing that this little wolf king of their family cannot accomplish.
This also gave the wolves an idea.
When wolves are injured or sick, they will instinctively look for medicinal herbs for treatment. This is the survival wisdom accumulated from years of living in the jungle, but the extent they can do this is to remember some plants with therapeutic effects and look for them when needed.
However, they never thought that different plant fruits could be mixed together to produce more obvious therapeutic effects.
The wolves haven't used it yet, but they can clearly see that when Ye Zhizhi uses different herbs, the wound healing effect is different.
The three new wolves were able to recuperate in the wolf pack's lair. They no longer had to travel day and night and be constantly alert to possible attacks. Their injuries healed quickly, and by the time Ye Zhizhi's experiment showed results, their injuries had almost healed, and they no longer needed these herbs.
Ye Zhizhi wanted to confirm again whether there would be any sequelae.
Her herbs could not be used on the wolves for the time being, so she set her sights on other predators in the jungle area outside her territory.
When wolves go out hunting, they basically act as a team. Their individual strength is strong, and their combined strength is several times greater. Therefore, there are not many predators in this area that can hurt them. However, other predators are different. Many of them are lone wolves.
Predators are now reluctant to provoke wolf packs, but they still fight with each other and it is common for them to fight over territory.
Ye Zhizhi took the herbs and led the wolf pack into the jungle. When she encountered a wounded predator following the smell of blood, she would let the wolves surround it and crush it with their strength. Then she would force the predator to apply medicine on its wound and observe it carefully.
The predator, thinking he was about to die, responded: "???" What's wrong with these wolves? Why are they so kind as to heal their wounds? Are they planning to heal them first before eating them?
The predators were very confused. Since the wolves came here, their behavior has been different. When they go out hunting, they will also protect the little squirrels that also come out to look for food.
Such a fragile little thing, not even enough to swallow in one bite, and they didn't know how it had been protected by them. Before this, they had never seen a predator protect a certain prey.
Moreover, when other small prey of the same kind in the jungle try to establish a relationship with the wolf pack in the hope of getting protection, they are directly bitten to death by the wolves as a provocation. They only protect small animals in their own territory, and are very ferocious and difficult to deal with those outside this range.
Surrounded by a group of powerful wolves, the predator couldn't run away, nor could he fight back, so he had to lie down and let them torment him.
After Ye Zhizhi and the wolves kept the predators captive for a few days and confirmed that their wounds were indeed healing quickly and the predators were soon full of energy, she let them go and they ran away quickly.
While running away, he looked at Ye Zhizhi and the wolves strangely.
Ye Zhizhi didn't care about the predators' expressions. After she led the wolf pack to scour the predators in the jungle, she taught the wolves how to use the two herbs in combination.
Wolves and other predators are at the same level of the food chain. Unless they are fighting for resources or territory, or one side is absolutely weak, they generally do not interfere with each other.
These predators do not provoke the wolves, and they rarely provoke these predators, let alone treat them as prey.
After all, this area is rich in resources, and those herbivorous animals are their primary prey targets. Only when food is scarce will these predators be more likely to hunt each other.
The wolves also know that the mixed plants have good therapeutic effects. They keep it in mind and will naturally heal themselves in this way when they are injured in the future. The wolves have been doing this for years, and after it is passed down from generation to generation, it will naturally form genetic memory, and future generations will also use this method.
Ye Zhizhi was very happy that she had achieved some success, but after she had dealt with other predators in the jungle outside, she had some sequelae.
After being injured, those predators actually took the initiative to seek treatment from the wolf pack!
Ye Zhizhi and the wolves:???
When Ye Zhizhi and the wolves saw the predator with a huge bloody hole on its body and bleeding appear on the river bank outside the canyon, both Ye Zhizhi and the wolves were stunned.
Wolf Pack: Food delivered to your door?
Ye Zhizhi: ...
It may be that their behavior of only treating the wolves and not eating them during this period gave these predators the illusion that the wolves would heal them and would not harm them.
Predators roam in the jungle all year round. Whether you have experienced it personally or have watched it passing by, you have all seen the wolves treating their wounds. You have also noticed that the wounds of the treated predators healed quickly, and they were full of life in a few days. None of them were eaten as food.
Thus, a wrong perception was formed.
How could Ye Zhizhi have known these predators were so naive? They were ferocious predators! They were all carnivores and would occasionally hunt each other! They treated the predators and didn't eat them, hoping to see if such treatment would cause any aftereffects.
The experimental animals in the previous experiments were eaten after they got better...
The predator had consciously lay on its side in front of Ye Zhizhi, exposing the wounded side, then turned its head to look at Ye Zhizhi. The usually ferocious eyes now revealed a silly look.
The wolves stared at the predator with sharp eyes, staring at the fresh flesh and blood, but after a moment they gave up the idea of eating it.
They are so stupid, don’t let them get eaten stupid too.
With a complicated expression, Ye Zhizhi treated the wound of the predator that had foolishly come to his door.
So the predator that had stayed on the river bank for three days left safely and returned to its nest. It gave the other predators a signal, further confirming its own understanding, and then conveyed the message to each other.
It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout the jungle: the wolves across the canyon had treated them! Even the predators who had initially disbelieved it, after testing the waters, finally came to believe it.
Although they can also find herbs to heal their wounds themselves, the effect is not as good as that of the wolves. They can smell the different plants in there, but it is more convenient to let the wolves help apply medicine for treatment!
Were the wolves trying to become kings of the jungle? Protecting them like they protected the smaller animals? The predators, already subdued, figured if they got hurt later, the wolves would be there to heal them... That wasn't impossible.
Ye Zhizhi: ...I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
While Ye Zhizhi was struggling, injured predators appeared every few days, looking for the wolf pack, especially Ye Zhizhi, to apply medicine.
And they also give back. After their injuries are completely healed, they will hunt prey and drag it to the wolf pack as medical expenses.
Because of this incident, she discovered that wolves became popular in the jungle area.
In the past, predators would stay away from wolves, avoiding them when they were weaker. However, if the wolves were weaker, they would pounce and tear them apart without hesitation. Wolves were also wary of predators, as they were always ready to take over and dethrone the wolves from their position as regional leader.
For example, a group of predators far away has been desperately giving birth to cubs in recent springs, trying to make up for the strength gap in numbers and crush them.
But now, when the wolves are walking in the jungle, these predators not only do not stay away, but also do their own thing. Some even come out to say hello and express their friendly attitude. Even if the young wolves in the pack accidentally stray away from the pack and run around in the jungle, no predators will attack them.
These predators at the top of the food chain get along better than ever before.
Ye Zhizhi was puzzled for a few days, thinking to himself, maybe this is a good thing? If the wolves can get along well with the squirrels, it's not surprising that they can also get along well with these predators. Not surprising at all.
Ye Zhizhi silently thought about the benefits of this. When there was enough food, as long as these predators did not target each other, they could indeed live in harmony and friendship. At worst, there was another hunting ground far away, and they could cooperate to hunt elsewhere in the future.
The most important point is that if foreign predators discover this area in the future and try to occupy it, they can still help each other.
Ye Zhizhi regarded it as a pleasant surprise.
