52 Wilderness Survival
◎Where does she want to go?◎
This was the first time that Ye Zhizhi was allowed to leave the territory and go to the outside world without the supervision of the wolf mother.
She soon figured out the key points. She proved her strength in front of the wolf pack. Even though she was seriously injured, she still proved that she had the ability to protect herself. In the eyes of the wolf pack, she was no longer just a cub who simply needed protection. Just like Yin Yi and the others, after they were able to hunt independently, the wolf pack would no longer care where they went.
In other words, Ye Zhizhi has gained the true recognition of the wolf pack with her own strength. She no longer has to stay under the wolf pack's eyes all the time, and she can move around like Yin Yi and the others!
As expected, things will work out in the end. Ye Zhizhi hadn't even thought about how she would escape from under the wolves' noses in a few years, but now she is free!
Ye Zhizhi howled with excitement. Rather than "freedom", she was more excited because she had been recognized by the wolf pack, especially the wolf king father and wolf mother.
What kind of wolves are they? In Ye Zhizhi's eyes, smart, ferocious, majestic, powerful, and domineering... these are all words tailor-made for wolves, and they are the most representative of these words.
Although Ye Zhizhi once believed that a wolf pack is strongest only when it is a group, the wolves in her tribe overturned her perception.
Not only are they strong as a group, they are also very strong individually.
The feeling of being recognized by a powerful person filled her heart, and she urgently wanted to vent the passionate emotions in her heart that had nowhere to express.
Her small figure shuttled through the jungle, hidden by the mountains and trees, and soon only her voice could be heard but not seen.
The four wolves, including Yin Yi, were running back and forth around, running forward with Ye Zhizhi.
Silver Gray was also among them this time. He was already able to hunt independently and was allowed to go out with them this time.
Yin Yi and his group of wolves were also very excited. They had long wanted to go exploring in the jungle with the wolf girl. However, they all knew that the wolf girl was too weak to go with them.
Who would have thought that the bald cub who never grew up in the wolf pack would actually get the recognition of the wolf pack one day, and it would come so soon!
Yin Yi ran beside Ye Zhizhi, keeping the same speed as him. As Ye Zhizhi ran, he grabbed Yin Yi's hair, flipped over, and jumped up steadily. At the same time, Yin Yi lowered his body to cooperate.
After Ye Zhizhi sat on it, Yin Yi ran even faster.
She bent forward slightly, feeling the refreshing breeze with the scent of the forest blowing across her cheeks, and looked ahead with slightly narrowed eyes, as if containing a galaxy of stars.
They ran farther and farther under the gaze of the wolves, until they and their voices completely disappeared from their perception.
Ye Zhizhi thought that the wolf pack would send the cubs out to explore the world after they became independent.
But in fact, only Ye Zhizhi has this treatment.
As for the other young wolves, the pack's attitude was, "You guys are finally independent, get out of here!" Not to mention the "eighteen farewells" they performed.
As for Ye Zhizhi, it was really not easy for these cubs to be released. They were quite strong. Now that they were finally released, they came to take a look.
Although wolves don't have as many complex emotions as humans, they followed out with the intention of watching the fun, but it can be said that the wolves definitely spent the most thought and care on this cub.
Because they are so fragile, any accident can easily cause the cubs to die. In order to keep the cubs alive, the wolf pack can be said to have tried every possible means and unknowingly gave them the most attention.
The wolf pack is truly dedicated to the next generation.
Usually, wolf cubs in a den are most vulnerable during the first few days and nights after birth. Generally, as long as they are not harmed by external predators, they can basically grow up under the wholehearted care and protection of the entire wolf pack.
The period of time when wolf cubs have no ability to protect themselves is only a few months. They grow very fast, and the wolf pack only needs to hunt and bring them back for food, and basically does not have to worry about anything.
When the wolf cubs grow into pups, they will be taken out hunting. In the process, they will be taught how to track and capture prey, and they will be allowed to participate in assisting the tribe in hunting until the pups can complete hunting independently.
When the wolf cubs grow up and become the new backbone of the pack, they will participate in more affairs of the pack.
For example, directly participating in hunting, such as robbing or defending territory.
If there are wolves in the pack that have lost their ability to protect themselves, such as those that have been injured during hunting or fighting and have lost their hunting ability, special cubs like Ye Zhizhi, or old wolves, they will always be under the protection of the wolf pack.
This cub is truly special.
Not only does she look very unique, she also grows very slowly. Even now, when her brothers and sisters of the same age have grown up, she is still no bigger than a five-month-old cub.
Moreover, it is too fragile, picky about food, bald, cannot tolerate cold or hunger, and is also a unique wolf cub that walks on two legs.
Every time the wolf pack thought its cubs were going to die, she would always stubbornly survive.
Not only that, the cub knows a lot of things that the wolf pack doesn't know, but she is smarter than any other wolf pack and can think of ways that will surprise the wolf pack.
Even if such cubs do not have fangs or sharp claws, she can still keep the prey in captivity so that they will have food to eat when they are hungry, instead of having to starve during the rainy season and winter after the prey leaves the vicinity of the territory.
Even when they thought their cubs could fend for themselves under the protection of the wolf pack, the pair of claws they thought were disabled could actually kill jackals with branches that were everywhere in the forest.
The cubs are always refreshing their cognition.
At first, the cub walked on two legs, unsteadily and slowly, but now, she can run very fast. Even though her endurance and jumping ability are far inferior to those of the wolves, she can barely keep up.
This made them seem to foresee the cub's future, and her growth would definitely not stop here.
The wolves were moved by the cub's strength and perseverance, and they couldn't help but want to see how far the cub could go.
Ye Zhizhi didn't know what the wolves were thinking. She sat on Yin Yi's back and ran forward with the young wolves.
They were going hunting.
Although they are capable of hunting alone, they prefer to work in teams.
This not only shortens their hunting time and reduces the risk of injury, but also exercises tacit understanding among wolves.
After all, a wolf pack may not be able to defeat every beast alone, but teamwork can greatly enhance its combat effectiveness.
Among the younger generation, Yinyi was the strongest, so naturally, Ertan, Sanbai, and the others all recognized Yinyi as the leader. This was reflected in their hunting, where Yinyi led the pack. Even in their daily lives, Yinyi acted like a boss and was very strong.
If nothing unexpected happens, Yin Yi will be the next wolf king of the wolf pack.
Wait until Yin Yi grows up completely and the Wolf King starts to grow old.
After running for a while, the wolves slowed down, lowered their heads, and walked, sniffing the scent of prey all the way.
Ye Zhizhi knew that they were about to start hunting. This was her first time participating, and she would never hold them back.
Ye Zhizhi controlled his excitement and began to imitate the wolves, sniffing the air.
As her sense of smell became more and more sensitive, she could also tell the direction of the prey's movement from the scent left by them, just like a wolf pack.
The air was filled with a variety of scents, including the scents of more than one kind of animal, as well as the smell of ancient trees, green plants, soil, and rotten leaves.
They need to distinguish the tracks of their prey.
Soon, the wind brought them news of prey. They had discovered the traces of the prey and all ran in one direction. As they ran, the wolves slowly dispersed.
Soon, a group of wild deer came into sight.
This group of wild deer was at the edge of a forest. Ye Zhizhi recognized that this was not the group of deer that the wolves hunted last time.
Yin Yi quickly locked onto his prey, which was a fawn between adult and minor. While grazing on plants in the herd, it unknowingly walked to the edge of the herd.
While eating grass, it looked up and around vigilantly from time to time, but did not notice the predator from downwind slowly approaching it.
Ye Zhizhi also joined the wolf pack in hunting and driving away the prey, holding a sharp wooden stick in his hand.
Yin Xiaohui was arranged in another direction. Her and Yin Xiaohui's roles were just auxiliary. The main force was on Yin Yi and Sanbai and the two wolves.
They slowly approached their target. Ye Zhizhi was so nervous that she held her breath, fearing that the deer would discover her presence. Fortunately, everything went well.
Yin Yi leaped up in an instant at an incredible speed, rushed into the herd of deer, and attacked with his sharp claws.
The fawn reacted very quickly and dodged quickly, but this was exactly what Yinyi wanted. The more it ran, the further it got away from the herd.
Erbai also rushed forward quickly, trying to stop the fawn from getting closer to the herd and driving it in the other direction.
Erzong and Xiaobai came running over, and the deer quickly ran away after discovering the wolves. Ye Zhizhi also ran over quickly to block the other gap.
The young deer wanted to catch up with the herd, but it was too late. Several wolves had already surrounded it.
The young deer was running around in a panic, but when it saw Ye Zhizhi's direction, it saw a small and negligible wolf cub. It immediately felt that it had found a breakthrough and rushed towards Ye Zhizhi quickly.
Ye Zhizhi, feeling looked down upon, asked, "?"
She gripped the stick tightly and charged directly at the fawn.
The young deer raised its slender legs and kicked at the wolf cub in front of it.
Ye Zhizhi quickly dodged the kick and tried to stab it with a wooden stick. The young deer seemed to think that it could beat the little wolf cub in front of it, so it stopped running and turned around to continue rushing towards Ye Zhizhi.
At this time, Yin Yi and the others had caught up and pounced on the fawn from all directions.
The wolf drove away the fawn from the herd and hunted it, which took no more than three minutes. With a neigh, the fawn fell in a pool of blood and became the wolves' prey.
After the wolves successfully hunted, the deer did not run away and continued to graze not far away.
Ye Zhizhi stood beside the bloody fawn, with her hands on her hips, looking very satisfied.
She also participated in the hunt! She was so amazing! It's a pity that the wolf father and mother didn't see her hunting prowess.
After showing off, Ye Zhizhi bent down to pull out the wooden stick that was stuck in the fawn's body.
Yin Yi looked at the wolf girl thoughtfully, and suddenly thought of how to use the wolf girl.
Ye Zhizhi suddenly looked around vigilantly. Was there any danger nearby? Why did he feel uneasy?
But there is clearly no danger around here.
Ye Zhizhi was confused. He pulled up the stick and pulled some grass to wipe away the blood.
Yin Yi dragged the prey to the side and started eating.
Ye Zhizhi stood aside and watched.
She wanted to take a piece of meat back with her, as she had participated in the hunt! It would be great to bring it back as a snack for the wolf mother, but they were still in the wild, and carrying a piece of meat with them would have the smell of blood, which would easily attract bigger animals.
Ye Zhizhi pondered how to set a trap. If she wanted to catch prey, she had to make full use of the advantages of human beings.
After Yin Yi and the others had eaten their fill, they took Ye Zhizhi away.
Ye Zhizhi gestured to Yinyi to go to the forest and look for other food. Seeing Yinyi and the others eating so happily, she also felt greedy and wanted to eat something.
The vegetation here was very lush, so Ye Zhizhi did not walk by himself. Instead, he sat on Yin Yi's back and walked among the wolves with Yin Xiaohui.
Places like this with many blind spots are the easiest place for wild animals to hide. If one suddenly jumps out, she won't be able to react before it's snatched away.
The big trees here, with trunks thicker than her, are estimated to be over a hundred years old.
She didn't know where the virgin forests were so well protected, with ancient trees that were hundreds or even thousands of years old being seen everywhere.
Ye Zhizhi looked up and looked around, and saw many unfamiliar plants and fruits.
She chose a tree with the most birds on it, and the wolves were lingering under the tree.
Ye Zhizhi rolled her eyes. If Wolf Mom and the others were here, she would never be able to climb up, but now she was only with Yin Yi and the others...
She gestured for Yin Yi to go under the tree, then she seized the opportunity, jumped from Yin Yi's back onto the tree trunk, and quickly jumped up.
Yin Yi felt his back suddenly empty: "?" He raised his head, his eyes suddenly widened. The wolf girl was climbing a tree again. What should he do? He can't climb trees!
"Aoao~" Ye Zhizhi told the wolves not to worry. She quickly climbed up, picked a bunch of fruits, wrapped them in her pockets and hung them around her waist. Then, when the wolves were anxiously circling under the tree, she jumped down in two or three steps.
Ye Zhizhi grinned at Yin.
Look, she said that if you give her a chance, she can avenge her previous shame!
Yin Yi, who was already considering whether to summon the wolf king father to rescue the wolf sister: "..." His paws were itching, and he really wanted to pat the wolf sister like the wolf mother patted him, but in Yin Yi's heart, even if the wolf sister could hunt alone, she still needed protection.
So it lowered its head and bumped into him. The force wasn't very strong, but it knocked Ye Zhizhi crooked.
Ye Zhizhi raised her hands and hugged Yin Yi's head to steady her body. She rubbed back and continued to smile at Yin Yi.
Silver Gray finally squeezed over and howled at Ye Zhizhi, "Sister Wolf is so amazing! She's so good at climbing trees! Even wolves can't climb!"
A look of helplessness flashed in Yinyi's eyes. Forget it, after all, she is a wolf girl.
But the wolf girl is indeed much better than before. She is now one of the only two wolves in the pack who can climb trees! Should she learn it again?
Yin Yi once again carried the wolf girl on his back and walked in the forest.
Ye Zhizhi took a fruit in his hand, scraped off a layer of skin with his fingernails, and smelled it himself. He only smelled the fragrance of the fruit. He then gave it to Yin to smell, but it didn't react either. Ye Zhizhi knew it was ready to eat.
Ye Zhizhi wiped it and took a bite with his neat little teeth.
Sweet!
Ye Zhizhi was very surprised. In this jungle, she rarely ate fruits with normal taste. Most of them were weird. The lightly sweet fruit in her hand was so normal that it seemed unreal to her.
Fortunately, she picked a lot. When she comes back one day, she will pick more and store them in the cave.
After walking out of the forest, the wolves came to a group of rocks. The rocks here were rugged and there were no towering trees to block the view. Only some strange green plants poked out from the cracks in the rocks.
Ye Zhizhi was still thinking about the lake and wanted to go fishing, but the wolves were not going in the same direction as before. They must have deviated, and the scenery around them was completely different.
Before I knew it, the sun had already set.
The wolves ran and jumped over the rocks, moving forward quickly. Soon, they reached a high hillside.
From this point, the view is vast. Although there are high mountains on all sides, they are clearly on the top of a mountain, but it seems like they are in a basin. This shows how vast the jungle they are in is.
Ye Zhizhi looked around and felt a moment of confusion.
Although she hadn't thought about leaving the jungle and returning home in the past two years, there were mountains on all sides. Which direction should she go?
Ye Zhizhi looked again and again, not knowing which way to go out.
She had to find the right direction first, right? Otherwise, she'd just be wandering around in circles in the jungle. And when would she finally be able to get out?
Ye Zhizhi's gaze suddenly froze. She pointed to the highest mountain in her sight and roared at Yin Yi.
She wanted to go there!
