Chapter fifteen
As soon as he heard the roar, Chen Yang immediately shuddered, threw away the partridge in his hand, and grabbed the sickle that was placed beside him.
When he saw Chen Yang's abnormality, Cen Jiahua became nervous and asked quickly: "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
"I don't know it yet. It's a bit like a wolf, but it doesn't look like it." Chen Yang shook his head and said in confusion, but the solemn expression on his face still did not dissipate.
"Wolf?! There are still wolves in Lotus Mountain?" Cen Jiahua was a little surprised. He had seen wild animals in the zoo, but he had seen real beasts?
"Of course there is, this Lotus Mountain is hundreds of miles in a radius, with wild boars, wild wolves, and yellow sheep even seen leopards, but these large wild animals usually move deeper in the Lotus Mountain and rarely appear in places where humans live outside." Chen Yang's doubts became deeper: "And this sound is very strange, as if it was a very painful cry."
"You can hear this? It's so magical?" Cen Jiahua was stunned by Chen Yang's words. He just listened to the sound from afar and knew what the animal's screams mean?
"Haha, these are all taught by Laodou, but I haven't learned them yet." Chen Yang felt a little embarrassed and continued: "I Laodou and the others are amazing. As long as you listen to the sound, you will know the age and gender of animals."
"Then what should we do? Leave here or go and have a look?" Cen Jiahua felt very conflicted, and wanted to see the style of wild animals, but was worried about danger.
"Let's go, let's take a look quietly. It seems that it is not a pack of wolves, so there shouldn't be too dangerous." Chen Yang waved his hand and said calmly.
Then, the two of them packed up everything on the ground, and then each of them held a sickle and the other of them walked towards the place where the sound came from.
Because it was really difficult to walk in the jungle, in order not to disturb the beast, the two did not use sickles to open the way, but instead walked along some natural gaps in the jungle. Fortunately, the sound of the beast kept ringing, which made Cen Jiahua and the others not lose their direction.
Although it sounded like a short distance, Chen Yang took Cen Jiahua around for half an hour, and then he was close to where the sound appeared. The two of them found that the sound was getting closer, but they obviously felt that the sound was getting weaker and weaker.
When the two of them crossed a ridge, they discovered a shocking scene.
A wolfdog was crawling on the ground in blood and kept making low roars in its mouth, but its claws were still scratching on the ground, trying to move forward.
As soon as he heard the footsteps of Cen Jiahua and his two people, its originally drooping head suddenly raised, and his sharp eyes stared at him along the source of the sound. Its front paws supported its entire body with force, and a low roar was heard in its mouth, as if it was like an angry fighter.
Cen Jiahua was suddenly frightened by the wolf dog's eyes. What kind of eyes are they like? It contains unyielding, anger, unwillingness and pain, which is more vivid and richer than human language.
The two of them stared at each other with big eyes and stalemate. Chen Yang and the others were worried that their actions would attract the attack of the wolfdog, but the wolfdog seemed to be a little helpless.
Cen Jiahua didn't know how long it took, but it seemed like a century in a moment. He just felt that everything behind him was wet.
Finally, the wolfdog could no longer hold on. Its front paws softened and its whole body collapsed to the ground. However, as it was, it kept roaring in its mouth, but gradually, the sound fell down and turned into a thick gasp.
At this time, Cen Jiahua and Chen Yang's hearts fell back into their stomachs safely, and they were in the mood to observe what this wolfdog looked like.
The wolfdog is covered in blood and flesh, and its body is covered with dead branches and leaves, and it is no longer visible.
"I guess I was caught by a wild boar, otherwise I wouldn't have suffered such serious injuries." Chen Yang looked at the location of the wolfdog being injured and said.
As the two of them got closer, the wolfdog, which had already closed her eyes, opened her eyes again and struggled to try to get up again. However, its efforts ended in failure because it had suffered too much damage, lost too much blood, and had consumed too much physical strength, and was almost exhausted.
Chen Yang carefully fiddled with the wolf dog's body with a wooden stick, and found that it had no ability to stand up again, so he approached the wolf dog with confidence.
At this time, Cen Jiahua discovered that one of the wolf dogs' hind legs was gone, and the other one could no longer see what it was.
Chen Yang carefully checked the wolfdog's hind legs and said, "It should have been pinched by a wild boar. Its left hind legs were pinched off at once, and its right hind legs were bitten off by itself."
Hearing Chen Yang's explanation, Cen Jiahua felt admiration: "How much perseverance is needed to endure the pain of breaking his legs, and how much energy is needed to bite off his right leg by himself. Is it just for survival and for freedom?"
"Ayang, are there many wild boar clips nearby?" Cen Jiahua shuddered when she thought of the huge wound on the wolf dog.
"Since the corn is about to ripen, wild boars often come to harm the disaster, some villagers put clips on the edge of their own cornfield, but they don't know how the wolfdog was caught."
"Then is this wolf dog wild or is it raised by someone?" Cen Jiahua looked at the wolf dog as if it was a Kunming dog, but it seemed that it was not.
"Who knows? This wolf dog is dead, it's dozens of pounds, and it's quite troublesome to get it back." Chen Yang said while rumbling on the wolf dog's body: "Hey, this wolf dog seems to be breastfeeding. It has a dog doll!"
"Really?" Cen Jiahua immediately became excited when she heard this.
"It's definitely true. Look at its bloated breasts and the milk secreted." Chen Yang pointed at the wooden stick with his right hand and said, "It should be thinking of coming back to feed its own doll, so it bit off its hind legs by itself. Unfortunately, it can no longer hold on when it comes here."
After Chen Yang said that, he kept shaking his head and sighing.
At this time, a picture appeared in Cen Jiahua's mind: In order to return to the nest to feed his children, a wolf dog, who was caught by a wild boar, bit off his hind legs and struggled to return to the nest. However, the thorns spread along the way, and the forests that were usually on the flat ground have now become difficult and obstacles. It dragged its injured body step by step toward the home, leaving its blood mark along the way. The loss of a large amount of blood made its sight blurry, and the strength in its whole body seemed to slowly disappear with the loss of blood.
"Chen Yang, we must find its nest, otherwise its children will starve to death!" Cen Jiahua was moved by the great maternal love of the wolfdog, and his spirit suddenly became excited.
"Well, okay, let's take action separately, just look around here." Chen Yang seemed moved, and said with red eyes.
