Chapter 727: Chapter 727
The wolf in the trap was a completely black wolf, not a single stray hair on its body.
At this moment, seeing two suddenly appeared human children, the Black Wolf let out a series of low howls from its throat, its voice hoarse, as if casting a malicious curse.
It stared at the two human children with eyes full of hatred for a long time.
Tang Yuan and Baozi couldn’t help but step back in fear.
They had never encountered such a ferocious animal before, and naturally, they were terrified now.
Suddenly, the Black Wolf whimpered softly. Get full chapters from N0veI.Fiɾe.net
The previously fierce wolf’s head was now twisted and contorted by unbearable pain.
The wild light in those wolf eyes had completely vanished, suddenly becoming dull and spiritless.
Baozi and Tang Yuan watched this wolf in confusion, not knowing what happened to it.
"Brother, this wolf looks like it’s going to give birth to little wolves."
The Black Wolf seemed to be in pain, desperately flinging its body on the ground, trying to free its hind leg from the pierced tree branch.
But it was clearly impossible.
Soon, the Black Wolf let out a painful whimpering sound.
"What’s wrong with it?"
Tang Yuan watched the Black Wolf lying there helplessly, its eyes showing a pitiful plea for help.
"I don’t know either, but it looks like it’s in a lot of pain."
Initially, they were afraid and scared of this wolf, wishing to run away as fast as they could.
However, upon seeing the wolf now suffering so much, they both felt some sympathy for it.
A wolf was there howling. They knew there were wolf pups inside its belly, but clearly, the wolf was having a difficult childbirth.
"Is it unable to deliver the babies?"
"Why don’t we help it? Mom’s pills are really effective. If we give it one, it should be able to deliver the babies smoothly."
Tang Yuan couldn’t help but suggest.
Baozi scoffed, "Do you know it’s a wolf? If you give it the pills now, it’ll deliver the wolf pups, and when there’s no food, it will eat us both. Do you think the two of us together can fight this wolf?"
Baozi wasn’t being ruthless; it was just the reality. In this situation, instead of staying far away, they were making a risky decision by staying there.
Once the wolf gets better, it would definitely eat them up; it’s a wolf, not a human.
"Let’s go quickly, don’t waste time here. We definitely can’t eat this wolf. We should hide in the mountain cave, find a way to block the area around the cave. This place actually has a wolf. Who knows if there are other animals, and I’m most worried that the blood scent on the wolf will attract other animals."
Baozi grabbed Tang Yuan’s hand and started leading him up the mountain; they couldn’t waste any time here.
The sun was almost setting; if they delayed any longer, it would be dark.
While not being watched, Tang Yuan let go of his hand and threw a pink pill into the trap.
The Black Wolf caught a whiff of a strange scent, a scent it found very hard to resist, and it involuntarily wanted to approach it.
It swallowed the red pill in one gulp.
Five fluffy wolf pups appeared under its belly.
Baozi pulled Tang Yuan, and they struggled to climb to the top of the mountain, where they found the cave.
The cave was actually quite good.
The entrance was small, but once inside, it was very spacious, with many small stones. They found a larger stone to block the entrance, making it very secure.
The cave wasn’t suffocating; it was just very dark.
The two of them leaned against each other, and that’s how they slept, leaning against the stone wall.
The night passed quickly.
They didn’t know how long they had slept, but when they woke up, they heard something at the cave entrance forcefully pushing against the stone.
Tang Yuan and Baozi were startled.
Whether it was a person or an animal pushing the stone, it was nothing good for them.
Baozi picked up a rock from the ground and handed it to Tang Yuan, and he also picked up a large rock from the ground.
They hid by the entrance, prepared to protect themselves no matter if it was an animal or a person breaking in.
"Once the stone is pushed open, and whether it’s a person or an animal that rushes in, I’ll charge and hit it with the stone, and you run away immediately, don’t look back. No matter what you hear, don’t look back. Keep running down the mountain and find a place to hide."
"It’s best to find a tree and climb it, remember how I taught you to climb trees."
Baozi regretted taking Tang Yuan into the mountain these last few days. Although he taught Tang Yuan to climb trees, Tang Yuan was still not very adept at it. Despite being such a smart child, Tang Yuan couldn’t seem to master climbing trees.
If something happened to him today, and Tang Yuan was left alone in the woods, he wasn’t sure if Tang Yuan could find his way back.
Baozi was now filled with regret, regretting why he brought Tang Yuan into the mountains.
If they had stayed in the village, at least Tang Yuan could live well.
If he was gone, what if Tang Yuan starved to death alone in the woods, or encountered wild beasts?
He felt sorry for their parents.
Both of them watched the cave entrance nervously.
Suddenly, the stone was pushed open.
A gigantic black wolf head appeared at the entrance.
Baozi felt a tightness in his chest but still charged forward with the stone, hurling it fiercely at the wolf’s head.
Then Baozi was slammed into the stone wall, making him dizzy and seeing stars.
A Black Wolf strutted in proudly, its fierce gaze fixed on Tang Yuan, baring its teeth and glaring at Baozi.
Tang Yuan desperately stood in front of Baozi.
He couldn’t just watch his brother get eaten by a wolf.
Baozi tried to pull Tang Yuan behind him.
Tang Yuan was only complicating things now.
Then they both saw the Black Wolf gaze at them for five seconds, then turn and leave.
Tang Yuan and Baozi were drenched with cold sweat.
Baozi pulled Tang Yuan, and they rolled and crawled out of the cave; they couldn’t stay in this cave.
The Black Wolf left without immediately attacking them for unknown reasons; who knew if it might change its mind and come back for the two prey later.
As soon as they got out of the cave, they saw the Black Wolf return again, carrying a wolf pup by the neck.
After delivering the first cub into the cave, the Black Wolf barely had time to catch its breath.
Like a relay, it immediately dashed out again, and a while later, the second cub, then the third cub, all followed, as rain had fallen the night before.
Covered in what looked like a layer of mud, the Black Wolf didn’t stop.
It rained last night, and this was the highest point. If it didn’t move all the pups into the cave, the pups would likely die.
Tang Yuan and Baozi had nowhere to go. Initially, they had planned to escape, but upon seeing the pouring tumult before their eyes...
Where the Black Wolf had passed was now a turbid torrent, swirling and crashing with waves, it was actually a flash flood.
No wonder the Black Wolf sought out this cave; without hiding here, both the Black Wolf and its pups would perish.
But now, what were they to do?
Could Baozi and Tang Yuan really be safe staying together with a wolf?
