Xiao Xiao and Yuan Shitou were hunting in the woods when they suddenly heard a wolf howl.
It startled everyone; they thought they had misheard or eaten something.
They resumed their hunting activities.
Xiao Xiao heard it clearly, glanced at Yuan Shitou, and said nothing.
Neither Yuan Ping'an nor Gun Gun took it seriously.
They've been going into the mountains to hunt for quite some time now.
There are wolves in this forest, but they live deep within the woods and won't come out.
Even if they escape, it's just one or two lone wolves. They're not a threat at all.
Besides, I didn't hear it very clearly just now, so maybe it was just my imagination.
The two remained enthusiastic and continued chasing their locked prey.
Not long after, two more wolf howls were heard.
The faint sound of someone shouting angrily could also be heard.
Small ears are more sensitive and can hear very clearly.
He called out to the two who were still chasing their prey, "Ping An, Gun Gun, come back quickly."
The two noticed something was wrong with the small voice and quickly ran back.
Yuan Gungun was still panting: "Mom, what's wrong? Why did you want us to come back?"
"Didn't you hear wolves howling just now?"
"Hurry up and get up the tree."
Yuan Gungun pouted, "Mom, the sound is still far away, what are you afraid of?"
Yuan Shitou pulled a long face and said, "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and climb the tree."
He then turned to Xiaoxiao and asked, "Wife, did you hear any other sounds?"
Can you guess how many wolves there are?
Xiao Xiao listened intently for a moment, then said anxiously, "It sounds like someone has encountered a wolf."
"Quick, let's go help!"
After saying that, he ran in another direction.
As he ran, he shouted to Yuan Ping'an and Yuan Gungun, "You two stay in the tree and don't come down!"
Yuan Gungun wasn't that honest; he ran away as soon as he saw his mother.
He quickly slipped under the tree, with Yuan Ping'an following closely behind.
Yuan Shitou was still a little worried about the two children, but he didn't say anything when they came up to him.
They chased after the tiny figure, leading them in pursuit.
Little Xiao ran very fast, and the sound grew closer and closer.
She was also somewhat shocked when she saw the scene.
Three gray wolves were seen attacking a man.
The man was seriously injured and covered in blood.
Their movements were also somewhat sluggish, clearly indicating that they were at their last gasp.
Just as a wolf was about to bite the man's throat, Xiao Xiao shot him in the neck with an arrow.
Although it didn't die, it's no longer very dangerous.
Seeing this, the other two bared their teeth and looked at Xiao Xiao.
Yuan Shitou arrived just as they pounced on him.
These two wolves are no match for Xiaoxiao and Yuan Shitou.
The two children didn't know what to do, and they were still a little scared of the two wolves.
After all, the name "wolf" is quite intimidating.
Xiao Xiao seized the opportunity to shout, "What are you all standing there for? Go check on how they are!"
And take care of that wolf too.
Yuan Ping'an and Yuan Gungun then realized what was happening.
They all ran to help the man who had fainted.
Upon seeing the wolf still struggling desperately, Yuan Gungun picked up his machete and chopped off its head.
Xiao Xiao and Yuan Shitou quickly dealt with the two wolves.
Seeing the man covered in blood, Xiao Xiao urged, "Take him away quickly, lest we attract other wild animals."
Yuan Shitou carried the man on his back, while Xiao Xiao and the others each pulled a wolf and quickly left.
They didn't linger even after returning to the place where they had set the trap.
I went straight home.
Prey is nothing compared to human life.
Mr. Yuan was playing with Tian Tian in the yard, while Mrs. Yuan was busy preparing food for her grandson in the kitchen.
Just as I took out the food I had prepared, I saw Xiaoxiao and the others return.
I'm still curious why the person who said they were going to stay away for a couple more days came back.
He was shocked to see his son carrying a blood-soaked figure on his back.
Yuan Shitou was also quite exhausted, not because he was particularly heavy.
The main concern was that if time was wasted, the person might die.
Wouldn't that be a waste of time?
Xiao Xiao asked Yuan Shitou to carry him to the room where he used to sleep.
Then he said to Yuan Ping'an, who was following behind, "Quickly go and fetch a basin of hot water."
Add some salt to it.
Mrs. Yuan quickly said, "I'll go."
They quickly brought the water over and, without asking any questions, began to help treat the wound.
The man was completely unconscious at this point. He let Yuan Shitou and his mother help him wash his wounds and apply medicine.
There is always medicine for treating injuries at home.
The medicine is quite effective; I only had to ask the herbalist to help me prepare it.
After treating all the man's injuries, Yuan's mother asked about the situation.
Yuan Ping'an and Yuan Gungun then recounted the entire incident.
Mr. Yuan took a deep drag of his tobacco and looked at the man's unwashed face, asking, "This man looks unfamiliar. Judging from his clothes, he doesn't seem to be from the mountains."
I wonder how he ended up in Misty Mountain?
And he was in the inner perimeter, what was he doing inside?
Xiao Xiao also began to wonder, could this person be a spy?
The idea startled even herself.
What will they do if they really are spies?
Should we hand him over to the police station, or abandon him in the deep mountains again?
She had a jumble of random thoughts, but dared not say them aloud.
I was afraid of scaring my family.
After Yuan Shitou applied medicine to the man's body and the ground, he then washed his face.
As he wiped, he wondered why the person looked so familiar.
After washing everyone clean, I still couldn't remember who they were.
Unable to resist, she asked Yuan's mother, who was standing beside her, "Mother, why does this person look so familiar?"
Do you know him or not?
Upon hearing his words, Yuan's mother also began to look at him more carefully.
"You know what, this person does look somewhat familiar."
Xiao Xiao also went over; the face looked familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
However, Yuan Gungun's words reminded everyone: "How could he not look familiar? He looks like the older brother!"
The group looked at Ping An, then at the man.
The more you look at it, the more it resembles him. If the man's face didn't have any injuries, it would look even more like him.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was absolutely certain.
Everyone fell silent.
They all thought of one possibility: could this man be Ping An's biological father, whom she had never met?
Yuan Ping'an was a thoughtful child, and he noticed everyone's expressions and realized what was going on.
He gritted his teeth. So what if he was his biological father? He wouldn't acknowledge him.
They will not leave this place.
Everyone sat silently to the side, and the scene became somewhat quiet for a moment.
Yuan Ping'an suddenly started rummaging through the man's pile of bloodstained, tattered clothes.
He wanted to find something that could prove the man's identity.
Besides some money, there was also a fountain pen.
Then there was nothing left.
No, there's also a watch on the man's wrist.
It seems we'll have to wait until the man wakes up to find out.
Suddenly, a loud "bang" broke the silence of the group.
Yuan's mother was the first to run outside, where she saw Tian Tian, who was still eating, fall to the ground.
She is struggling to climb forward, showing no signs of crying.
This startled Yuan's mother so much that her heart was pounding.
