When the wolves were pulled out of the trap, they were all injured to varying degrees, and none of them seemed to be alive. However, Ye Moxun reminded everyone that it was best to tie the wolves' legs with rope, just in case they weren't completely dead.
Hearing him say that, everyone laughed. What a joke! He's already dead, how could he possibly come back to life?
Lin Fuhai gave Ye Moxun a deep look, taking his words to heart. He then instructed the men to be cautious and to tie the legs and mouths of wolves, whether they were truly dead or not, to avoid any mishaps.
Otherwise, how could Lin Fuhai have become the village chief and gained the trust of everyone in Linjia Village? On the way back with the wolves, sure enough, several wolves "came back to life". The men originally wanted to carry them on their shoulders, with each person carrying two at a time. But after Lin Fuhai spoke up, they tied a few wolves together and carried them in pairs.
The wolf that Song Tantan put into the supermarket and then released again became stupid and mentally unstable. It no longer knew how to attack people, but for safety reasons, everyone would definitely kill the wolf directly.
The creatures that Song Zhuiyan released from her space were those whose brains were still intact, but who had been knocked unconscious and thrown into a trap. The trap contained barbs that injured them, and they were not awake at first. After they woke up, their first reaction was to struggle desperately and try to attack the people who were carrying them.
This gave the men a real fright. They were terrified. If their mouths and legs hadn't been tied up, and they had just carried them like that, what would have happened if the wolf cubs woke up and opened their mouths to bite them? Would they have survived?
However, it's really strange. Why did all the wolves in the second trap faint from the pain? The ones in the first trap didn't faint, but they all seemed to have intellectual problems. Something's not right, something's really not right.
Everyone wanted to know how the Song family girls lured the wolves into the trap, and whether they had any special skills.
Although the Song family girl said that the wolves fell into the trap on their own, those with a sharper mind always felt that things weren't that simple. Wolves are the most cunning creatures; how could they all fall into the trap together and become stupid or dizzy?
Zhong Qingyi also had questions, but he imagined that Song Zhuiyan was skilled in using medicine, so she must have used some kind of special drug to drug the wolves into unconsciousness.
Ye Moxun nodded in agreement, "There is indeed such a medicine in the book, which is specially used to deal with wolf packs. I will also develop such a medicine for my uncle next time, so that he will not be afraid of encountering wolf packs in the deep mountains in the future."
Hearing her nephew say this, Zhong Qingyi became even more certain that Miss Song indeed had the medicine.
When passing by the Song family's house, Ye Moxun slowed down. He was thinking of knocking on the door, but it seemed that Song Tantan and Aunt Song were catching up on sleep, so he decided not to disturb them.
When Ye Moxun got home, he went to the kitchen to fetch water. Zhong Qingyi followed him in and helped him carry the water to the bathroom. The bathroom was quite spacious and had two large wooden tubs for bathing. Unfortunately, there was no tap water, so he had to pour buckets of water into the tubs one by one to take a bath. He didn't know what could be done to bring the water in.
There was no water pipe, and even if there were, it couldn't be taken out. So Ye Mo thought of using bamboo tubes instead of water pipes to connect to the stream. There were many springs on the mountain, and there were two springs less than 500 meters from his home. He would connect one to each of his family and Tan Tan's family.
I don't know if it was because the weather was too good, but a few days after the wolves appeared, wild boars also appeared. These wild boars came out at night, dug up a lot of land, ruined a lot of the crops, and uprooted and ate all the lush sweet potato vines.
Sweet potato leaves can be eaten as a vegetable, and they taste much better than wild vegetables. However, sweet potatoes need to grow a bit more before the leaves are picked too often. If you pick the leaves too often before the sweet potato has grown, it will not grow very big and will only be a little bigger than your thumb.
No one had ever eaten sweet potatoes before. After hearing what Song Zhuiyan said, they didn't dare to eat sweet potato leaves too often. They were treasuring them. Who would have thought that wild boars would dig them up, and a lot of corn was also dug up.
Grain is the lifeblood of the people. Destroying grain is almost the same as killing them. When they found the fields dug up beyond recognition, the men roared with anger, and the women wiped away their tears.
We finally settled down and planted some crops, and it looked like we'd be able to harvest them in two months, but then wild boars destroyed them. Are we going to have to rely on hunting in the deep mountains to make a living from now on?
The deep mountains are infested with bears, wolves, and other large wild beasts. Even Zhong Qingyi and Song Zhuiyan, who both know martial arts, dare not venture in to hunt, let alone those who do not.
To be honest, Zhong Qingyi and Song Zhuiyan have never really ventured deep into the heart of the mountains. The last time they encountered the black bear, they were only on the outer perimeter. Besides the worry about encountering large beasts, the terrain of the deep mountains is too complex, with trees and bushes scattered everywhere, making it difficult to move around. It seems that no one has ever set foot in there before, and it is not an easy task to open up a path to go deeper into the mountains.
This won't do; it's too passive. It's obviously unrealistic to want to enclose the entire village and all the fields. It would take a long time to fire bricks, and then there's the bricklaying. It wouldn't be completed in less than a year and a half.
Of course, the idea of building the wall was conceived by Ye Moxun and Song Tantan. No one else had this idea. The previous wall had taken almost two months to fire and lay bricks, and there was still a section that was not finished. The men were working hard to catch up.
The wall they built was only two meters high, which they initially thought was quite high. But that night, three packs of wolves came at once, and Song Tantan and Ye Moxun realized that the wall was too low. Two meters was nothing; a strong adult wolf could easily leap over it. They needed to add at least another meter and stick barbs on the top of the wall to make it safe.
"Right now, we can first insert sharp wooden stakes, then insert glass shards, or put some knives on them. There are plenty of watermelon cutters and small fruit knives in the supermarket." Song Tantan stroked his chin, thinking it was a good idea.
"Don't mess around. The Great Jin Dynasty has very strict control over ironware. The amount of ironware that ordinary people have is limited. Besides, everything in your supermarket is stainless steel, right? It's too conspicuous to take it out. You'll have to explain where you got these knives, which will cause a lot of trouble." Ye Moxun said while flipping through the book.
He was searching through a medical book, a book on herbal medicine. The contents were quite varied. He had initially read it with an experimental mindset and tried to study several drugs, including poisons. Unexpectedly, he actually succeeded in researching them, and the antidote was also developed smoothly, all using bamboo rats as test subjects.
Ye Moxun now treasures this book. He wasn't joking when he said he would use poison as a self-defense skill. He knows his own body best. He's lucky that he can slowly recover to normal under the conditioning of medicinal diet. He still can't keep up with the physical strength to practice martial arts.
He had a foundation in martial arts in his previous life. As a qualified young master from a wealthy family and a top student, he started practicing Sanda and fighting at the age of eight and beat up the school bullies of various schools by the age of fifteen. So he was actually very good at fighting without training, but his physical strength couldn't keep up.
Since his physical strength couldn't keep up, he had to rely on other aids. Fortunately, he had a good memory and could memorize the knowledge from medical books. He could also develop more poisons for self-defense, which would make up for his weak constitution.
Right now, he wants to develop a drug specifically for dealing with wolf packs, ideally one that would knock out wolves with a single sniff, but would have no effect on humans.
Otherwise, he would have a lot of drugs on him right now, but these drugs would kill any person or animal that inhales them, which is very unsafe and could easily lead to mistakes, so he dares not use them indiscriminately.
