—— Blood flowed out of the feet of the long-haired girl with chestnut red hair, and also flowed out of the little wolf’s heart. The long-depressed wolf nature was aroused and turned into a howl that resounded through the mountains and rivers and vibrated the earth.
Xiaohong finished packing up the books she had read, turned on the TV and prepared to relax for a while.
TV is just playing a documentary about animal hunting. The little wolf surrounded Xiaohong, sat down, and watched the animals on the TV together.
"Little Wolf, look, there are wolves!" Xiaohong hugged Xiao Wolf's neck and said, "Does the big bad wolf on TV look very similar to Xiao Hui? The two circles of eyes are white, and the rest are gray." After saying that, he didn't forget to look at Xiao Hui who was sleeping for a few times to compare. The wolf in the documentary is very brave. He suddenly exerted the advantage of the wolf pack and surrounded the black cows that were much bigger than themselves, making it lose its ability to resist instantly. However, such a brave wolf also looks very lonely. He always stands in the vast sky for a long time, then howls, one after another, with a strong and lasting voice, but desolate and lonely. Then their eyes were empty, looking down at everything under their feet indifferently, just like the sky looked down at them, without emotion.
The little wolf also raised his head and opened his mouth as he learned the wolf's posture, but he couldn't yell for a long time, but he was so anxious that he screamed "whimper".
Xiaohong looked at the little wolf's funny look and said, "Little wolf, you are a dog, how could a wolf bark? Your brother Xiao Hui usually teaches you the dialect of dogs. Of course, you can't say the wolf's words, hahaha..."
Xiao Hui was woken up by the little wolf, hummed, then covered his ears with one claw, turned his head to continue sleeping.
Grandma came back with a package of leafy vegetables and said to Xiaohong, "Xiaohong, the white dog from Aqiang's mother-in-law's house is lost. Go and help her find it. There are no people in their house anymore. She is the only old man and a dog at home. I heard that their white dog has not been there for several days. Aqiang has been searching for a long time, but she has not found it."
Xiaohong agreed and took Xiaohui and Xiaolang out, and took this time to walk the dog.
Xiaohong came to Aqiang’s mother-in-law’s house and asked her about the dog’s condition.
A Qiang's mother-in-law is already in her seventies. She is generally quite neat, but her legs and feet are a little slow.
"My Xiaobai, it has been with me for more than ten years. When my old man left, I originally thought of going together, but when I thought that I still have this son in the world, if there were no me, no one would raise it in the future, I would be sad... Xiaobai is very honest and never causes trouble or harms people. I hope the wolf god can bless it to come back safely. I will definitely go to the wolf temple to fulfill my wish!" As his mother-in-law Aqiang said, praying with her hands closed.
"Mother-in-law Aqiang, don't worry, I'll help you find it. If you haven't been caught, you must be able to find it." Xiaohong comforted.
"My little white dog is a white dog. No one likes to eat white dogs. He will definitely not be caught. But will there be a killer in the fields and put a wild beast clip on the mountain to hold it up, so that it will not come back. Alas... a dog of this age is like an old woman. Usually, after going out and not coming back for a long time, he will either be trapped in some place, or he will run out secretly to wait for death." A Qiang's mother-in-law sighed.
Xiaohong was a little confused and asked, "Dogs still go out and wait for death?"
"Yes, dogs are the most emotional. Once they feel that their days are coming, they will run out secretly. They would rather die alone than let us see sadness. Poor, my son..."
A Qiang's mother-in-law's daughter works outside and is rare to come back once. Although she wants to take her over and live with her, the old man insists on living in a restaurant village with her dog, living together, and dying together.
Xiaohong promised to find Xiaobai for Aqiang’s mother-in-law. She sniffed Xiaobai’s mat that Xiaohui and Xiaolang had slept, and then set off.
"Be careful, there are a lot of iron clips on the mountain recently..." A Qiang's mother-in-law reminded behind her.
"I know——" Xiaohong replied.
Xiaohong followed two big dogs like vacuum cleaners and shuttled through the fields, fields, mountains and fields... On the way, the newly bought little yellow dog from Grandpa Wu's house was chubby and fleshy. When he saw Xiaohong, he wanted to follow him and play with him, but he didn't care about watching the road and fell under the bridge. Fortunately, the small bridge was not high and the puppy had a lot of meat on his body, so he didn't hurt him much. After Xiaohong took the little yellow dog back to Grandpa's house, he went to find Xiaobai again.
Xiaohong, Xiaolang and Xiaohui came to a mountain full of bamboo . By accident, a wild boar buried under the bamboo leaves suddenly added to Xiaohong's ankle. Xiaohong fell to the ground and cried in pain.
Little Wolf saw Xiaohong crying, and suddenly an uncontrollable airflow surged out of his heart. This airflow rushed to its head and turned into a sound, which lasted for a long time, resounded through the mountains and rivers, and shocked the earth.
This unprecedented howl broke the tranquility of the village, making all the animals calm down, looked up at the sky, and the villagers also walked out one after another, looking in the direction of the Wolf God Mountain. This howl also made Guo Bing's family, who was eating, stop their chopsticks and quickly run out of the door.
Xiao Hui quickly picked up the branches from not far away, and the little wolf grabbed the stones. Xiao Hong temporarily used the stones and branches to stuck the iron clip, while letting the iron clips cut off his bones.
Then, the 15-year-old Xiaohong used her strength to step on the buckle of the wild boar with her other foot, stretched the iron frame open, and then quickly pulled out the injured foot.
Xiaohong collapsed on the ground, her mouth and face turned pale, and blood flowed all over the ground. But looking at Xiaolang and Xiaohui who were sobbing uncomfortablely, she still forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. After I go back, I just need to pour some alcohol, apply some ointment, and eat more meat to replenish it... Really... If you don't believe it... we will hook and hang ourselves... we will not change for a hundred years..."
Although she only said one or two words, Xiaohong was already out of breath, and the tears in her eyes were still pouring out like pain.
Little Wolf looked at Xiaohong's weak appearance, stepped forward and licked the tears on Xiaohong's face, then lay down and began to lick the wound on Xiaohong's feet. Xiaohong was powerless to stop him, so she had to let it continue to lick.
But gradually, Xiaohong found that her feet did not hurt so much. Even the wound on her feet was healing quickly, and the blood had been licked by the little wolf, and so was the injury.
Although Xiaohong is still very weak, the pain has disappeared, and the wound is gone, and her feet are intact as before.
Xiaohong couldn't help but hold Xiaolang's face and began to look at it carefully. At this moment, Xiaohong seemed to realize the extraordinary nature of Xiaolang. She showed unprecedented surprise and joy, but at the same time, she was even more worried.
Xiaohong climbed onto the back of the wolf and took the shortcut with Xiaohui to go home. She didn't dare to take another risk, otherwise she would probably have lost her entire foot next time.
Xiaohong returned home and told her grandmother about this. Grandma hurriedly checked the wound on Xiaohong's feet that had healed.The wound has completely healed, and the skin on Xiaohong's ankles is as white and tender as it is, but her pants' legs are stained with blood.
Xiaohong stood up and walked twice in front of her grandmother, indicating that she was completely fine and told her not to worry. Grandma Changshu breathed a sigh of relief, then found six incense sticks, lit them, and then divided them into half for Xiaohong. She took her to the door to kneel down in the direction of the Wolf God Mountain, burning incense. After the worship, the two of them inserted the incense into the incense tube in front of the door.
"It must be the wolf god that appeared. The wolf god Bodhisattva knew that we were sincere, so bless us." Grandma said firmly, then went into the room and said to Xiaohong, "Xiaohong, don't tell others about what happened today. It's good that we know in our hearts. Otherwise, the little wolf might be regarded as an evil spirit in the future."
Xiaohong nodded, and believed in the existence of the wolf god even more firmly in her heart. She believed that the little wolf must be a gift given to her by the wolf god Bodhisattva. It must be the wolf god who saw that her and her grandmother's life was so hard, so she sent the little wolf to her side to protect herself and her grandmother.
Maybe, Xiaolang is the wolf god... Xiaohong really wanted to think so, but when she turned around, she saw that Xiaolang was playing with Xiaohui and the cat heartlessly, and started to compete with Xiaohui for meat at supper. She shook her head and gave up the idea.
Believe in the gods, so you are in awe, always be grateful, and regain your rituals.
But not everyone believes in the existence of the wolf god, and some people never believe it. They disrespect gods, but believe in demons.
Guo Bing didn't finish lunch, so he put down his chopsticks and went up the mountain to check the hundreds of big wild boar clips he had placed. Finally, he found the bloody iron clip in Zhuzi Mountain not far from Langshen Mountain. He lit up the flashlight, picked up the clip and stared around it, and found that not only was there blood on the clip, but also the threaded ends of people's trouser legs.
But Guo Bing remembered that he had heard a sound similar to a wolf howl, how could someone have a line of clothes? Is it the person who is caught? What's going on with the wolf's scream? Could it be that the wolf appeared to save people? Or is it that man is a wolf, otherwise how could a beast know how to escape the trap of the trap?
Guo Bing never believed in the wolf god's words. He felt that it was just something that the old man in the village was bored. Because his grandfather told him that their family had eaten wolf meat before, and the wolf was afraid of hunting rifles. No matter how fierce it was, he would be honest with one shot.
However, it is difficult to get the hunting rifle now, and the wolf has never appeared in the Wolf God Mountain again, so Guo Bing can't eat wolf meat anymore. Now he goes to secretly take advantage of others not being at home and cook hot pot. The passion for dog meat seemed to be a desire engraved in his bones, and this desire also flowed to his son Guo Han and his grandson Guo Mao.
Guo Bing put away the bloody iron clip, put it in a nylon bag, and went home. He took out three incense sticks from the drawer, lit them, and held the ancestral tablets in the small room, and then inserted them into the incense stove. Guo Bing hopes that they can show their powers so that he can really eat wolf meat in his life and have a good time. He also promised that if he could eat wolf meat, he would worship the wolf head to his ancestors.
Two days later, Xiaohong went to Aqiang's mother-in-law's house again. She was surprised to find that Xiaobai from Aqiang's mother-in-law's house was back, but she had lost her legs and lay weakly beside the owner, shaking her tail at Xiaohong who was entering the door with difficulty.
"Oh, my poor son, seven days and seven nights, I don't know how he lived..." A Qiang's mother-in-law stroked Xiaobai's head and complained to Xiaohong, "When it came back, it was soaked all over, there was no meat on its body, and its legs were broken. I don't know how he lived it. Now, I can only drink some clear soup, and I can't even eat the rice..."
Xiaohong looked at Xiaobai's exposed ribs, with clear roots, as if he was about to break the fur.
"It must have suffered a lot, but it is still lucky and can still come back."
" Yes, I thought it was dead. If it died, I would have lived enough in my life... But, one advantage of white dogs is that they will not be eaten by others. Others are afraid of white dogs and think they are unlucky. I think of my little white. No one can save me, and my throat is hoarse, so I bit off my leg and escaped..."
"Is it dumb? "Xiao Hong thought to herself, no wonder she had never heard Xiaobai roar, and she didn't hear the dog's barking when she was looking for it.
"Yes, Xiaobai has many problems in her natural habits. When she was a child, she had skin diseases and grew slowly. When she grew up, her bones became hunched, her throat became hoarse, and she never grew much flesh. So, dog stole dogs, they don’t like white dogs the most. They don’t want yellow dogs and gray dogs. They are so plump and look healthy and thick. "
" Oh—so that's how it is, so I said that the white dog is unlucky. It turns out that some people don't like it, and they even dislike the white dog's filthy everywhere. It's really..."
Xiaohong helped Aqiang's mother-in-law feed Xiaobai medicine, scrub the whole body, and then went home.
The school has had more than one major exam recently, and Xiaohong is always very tired every time she comes back. Although the knowledge of junior high school is easy for Xiaohong to digest, in order to ensure that she can get into the best high school in De City and squeeze into the few places, she must work harder than others. In this way, she can have a good way out in the future and take better care of her grandmother.
However, she is becoming more and more worried. Once she really lives in the school, her grandmother lives alone and is so honest, she is easily bullied.
People's worries always correspond to reality. The more Xiaohong is worried, the more she will be.
On this day, when Xiaohong came home, Aqiang's mother-in-law reminded her on the side of the road to go home quickly. Your grandmother is quarreling with an old scoundrel.
Xiaohong hurried home and found that the old neighbor Fu Anqiu was leaning against the electric car, pointing at her grandmother's nose and scolding her to hit her. Fu Anqiu's daughter Fu Ling was holding him and said to Xiao Hong's grandmother: "You old boy, you dare to hurt my father. Why are you so powerful? Just hit him to death. While we don't know, you are so arrogant! "
, while Xiaohong's grandmother covered the wound on her body with her hands and said panting: "It was your father who hit me on an electric bike. The road is so wide that I am just walking on the side of the road, and he is going to hit me. How can I say that I hit him now? "
Xiaohong ran up, pulled her grandmother to protect her, and began to check the wound on her grandmother's body.
Fu Ling looked at it, rolled her eyes to Xiaohong, and said lightly: "Oh, Xiao xzi is back..."
Xiaohong ignored them, but pulled her grandmother home, quickly put the two dogs on the dog leash, put them out, and said to Fu Ling and Fu Anqiu: "If you want the dog to bark, you will bark hard at our dog. People cannot understand the barking of dogs, and only dogs can understand it. "
Fu Ling was angry, but there were two huge dogs in front of her, and she didn't dare to step forward easily. She just pushed Fu Anqiu and said to Xiaohong: "Little xzi, your grandmother hit someone, you still have the ability to come back and let the dog go. Did your teacher teach you this way? It's so uneducated, something that the bitch raised... If my father was bitten by your dog today, I tell you, I will sue you, let you lose all your money and you can't live in the village! You little x-son who is not a mother-in-law..."
Xiaohong has long been used to Fu Ling's dirty words. Over the years, every time Fu Anqiu messed with others in the village, she would curse the shrew next to her, and her fat body was so shaking that she was sweating.
As the saying goes, what kind of person you are, what kind of person others are in your eyes. Therefore, Xiaohong was just scolding herself.
"Which eye did you see my grandmother hit your dad? My grandmother is a human being. Your dad is riding an electric bike. My grandmother has such strength to hit your dad? What about your dad's injury? My grandmother was hit by your dad and bleeding. What about your dad? I don't even see him falling on the electric bike. This is obviously your dad hit my grandmother!" Xiaohong will not be polite in the face of an impolite person. "And my dog is at our doorstep to protect the owner who bites and kills the person who comes to the door to cause trouble. Go and ask your husband who works in the court whether it is a dog or a person, whether it is my family or your family."
"Here, dad, look," Fu Ling helped Fu Anqiu and continued to say to Xiaohong, "Such a small mouth is so powerful and so uneducated, why are you good students? I don’t know what the harm was. I have such a powerful mouth, so I must be studying in school. Your grandmother is amazing. She bumped into my father. I saw it. Our whole family saw it. What do you know if you don’t have a mother-in-law?”
Little Wolf looked at the arrogant Fu Ling bullying Xiaohong, and she and Xiaohui roared at them. If Xiaohong had no leash at this moment, then the little Wolf must have rushed up to tear them apart.
The little wolf roared loudly, and its voice completely overshadowed the Fu family's voice. Fu Anqiu, who had been swearing and cursing, shook for a while, and suddenly dropped the denture . Fu Ling picked up the dentures that his father had fallen to the ground and took them with him, and began to call on his German shepherd Xiaohu.
But the German Collie is fed so well by them on weekdays, and he is so stingy that he has never seen such a big scene. As soon as he came out, he was so scared that he ran back while peeing.
"I don't know, but it doesn't mean the police don't know. I have called the police and let the police handle it later. Then you will know who hits whom, and you'll go to the hospital for a test." Xiao Hongyun said lightly.
At this time, Zhang Shouchen walked out of the house and persuaded Fu Ling and Fu Anqiu, who had not recovered, returned home, and gave Xiaohong a smile, saying to her, "Forget this matter, neither party has seen it, and it will not be said at that time."
Xiaohong also replied with a smile to him and said, "How can you forget it? Your wife just said that she saw my grandmother hit someone, and your whole family watched it. Seeing us, our family is not just your neighbors, but the neighbors around us can hear it. If my grandmother really hit someone, she will compensate you for the seller. How could it not be said? Even if there is no surveillance here, there are police and hospitals in this world."
Zhang Shouchen's face looked a little ugly. As long as he comes forward, the people in the village will not dare to make trouble again, but the little girl in front of him is unreasonable. It seems that it is really necessary to be eliminated.
After the police arrived, Xiaohong cooperated with the incident and took her grandmother to do the examination that day. She took the injury test and took medicine, and copied a copy of the injury report and handed it over to the police station for a record.
A young male policeman in Du Town said that he would definitely give Xiaohong family an explanation.
That night, after Xiaohong helped her grandmother back home, she suddenly remembered Xiaolang's special skills.
Then he opened his grandmother's wound with some concern and exposed it in front of the little wolf. After the wound was broken open, it was still bloody, with several scratches.
Little Wolf seemed to understand what Xiaohong meant and began to lick Xiaohong's fingers.
As a result, a miracle really happened. The wound on my grandmother's body quickly scabbed and shedded, and then it completely healed. There was no sign of the injury, and the skin on the original wound became smoother.
Grandma was surprised and stroked the little wolf's head happily, smoothed it out, and picked up a few more pieces of meat for him during supper.
Xiaohong hugged Xiaolang and turned around happily. However, they accidentally hit the table and rolled in pain. Then, after the pain, the scar healed again and forgot to hurt, and she smiled foolishly.
But this day's affairs are not over.
Xiaohong came back from school the next day and heard Ah Fei’s mother-in-law calling and asked her to go home to get mutton cakes.
A Fei's mother-in-law Xiaohong said, "Xiaohong, my mother-in-law heard about your family's yesterday. You did a good job, but listen to my mother-in-law's advice. If this matter has no result in the end, it is no result. Don't force it. The future is important. People are like this. As long as you have a future prospect, it will be easy to talk to anyone."
Xiaohong understood A Fei's mother-in-law's painstaking efforts and nodded.
"And, you have to be careful of the dog at home, don't be too ostentatious," A Fei's grandmother leaned close to Xiaohong's ear and said softly, "The Zhu Mei who lives inside, do you know? She said that your dog bites people everywhere before, but now she is saying that there is too much rain in the village. It's abnormal. It must be the white dog in your family who makes the village unlucky."
"She actually said this! My dog never bites people at all."
"I know, but if you talk too much, it will change if you say too much. When it comes to adulthood, there will always be people who believe it. And she also has several women from the Fu family walking door to door in the village... Of course, most of the villagers know that they are human beings, but if someone really takes your dog's business and causes trouble for your family, that would be bad. As for people, they always like to bully useless, and even more useless people... The mother-in-law also talks to you like this. Don't think that my mother-in-law talks too much, and don't tell others that it was my mother-in-law who told you..."
"Okay, thank you, mother-in-law, I understand." Xiaohong sighed helplessly and went home.
When she returned home, Xiaohong felt a little heavy inside. She became more determined to train the little wolf to protect her grandmother as soon as possible. In this way, when she went out to school in the future, her grandmother would not be bullied.
