Chapter 735: Chapter 735
Tang Yuan and Baozi paused, the stones they were holding momentarily slowed.
The two of them were so surprised and clumsy with joy that they moved the big stone at the entrance aside and dashed out.
The two of them didn’t even care that their feet got cut by the sharp rocks underfoot; they stumbled and rushed out.
Hearing the familiar voice, Tang Yuan and Baozi were about to go crazy with happiness.
Song Moting and Jin Dachuan had already searched every inch of the mountain.
This was the last peak; if they didn’t find anything here, they would have to go back.
Return without success.
Song Moting sighed. Thankfully, there was nothing else. Even though there was nothing else, it was still good news. The two boys were both smart and clever; as long as they could leave this place, they would definitely find their way home.
Just as he exhaled a long breath from his chest, Song Moting called without much hope.
Then he heard a familiar voice responding.
Song Moting’s eyes filled with tears when he saw the two small figures standing on the slope below the peak, waving at him.
He was about to rush over.
Then Song Moting stopped abruptly, cold sweat covering him.
Jin Dachuan and the others also froze in place.
Behind the two small figures, a huge Black Wolf emerged, its imperious gaze making Song Moting and Jin Dachuan feel icy cold all over.
Two such small children seemed as insignificant as ants in the face of the Black Wolf. Its sharp teeth and cold eyes meant that with just one move, these two kids’ lives could be hanging by a thread.
"Don’t move! Kids, don’t move."
Song Moting quietly instructed the children.
Jin Dachuan and the others slowly pulled daggers from their waists.
None of them dared to breathe loudly.
They were afraid that their recklessness would alarm the Black Wolf, causing it to attack the children directly.
Just then, four little wolves suddenly darted out.
Clearly, at the moment they drew their daggers, the Black Wolf was on high alert, its fur bristling, baring its teeth.
Tang Yuan and Baozi also saw this scene.
Tang Yuan quickly moved to shield the Black Wolf.
Stretching out his hands, he protected the Black Wolf.
This action nearly made Song Moting’s heart leap out of his chest in fright.
In that instant, Jin Dachuan had already rushed over to grab Tang Yuan, rolling to the ground, while his brothers charged forward to grab Baozi.
The Black Wolf let out a piercing howl and lunged at Jin Dachuan.
Song Moting rushed over to cover Jin Dachuan’s retreat.
He kicked the Black Wolf, and although his speed and coordination were excellent, successfully kicking the Black Wolf away...
...the Black Wolf’s claws also managed to leave deep scratches on Song Moting’s leg, immediately bleeding profusely. Read full story at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
The Black Wolf tumbled, and the kick was not light on the wolf.
Its chest hurt terribly, and one of its ribs was broken.
It got up, shook its body, and its fur bristled, warily eyeing Song Moting. Apparently, the man’s strength gave it pause.
Tang Yuan and Baozi shouted, "Stop fighting! This wolf saved us both."
Their voices echoed in the valley, due to their forceful shouting.
The adults in the valley were stunned—this wolf saved them?
Tang Yuan struggled to break free from Jin Dachuan’s embrace, ran to Song Moting, and grabbed his hand.
"Dad, don’t bully Da Hei. Da Hei is a good wolf; it saved me and Baozi."
Song Moting touched Tang Yuan’s head.
Seeing Song Moting’s gesture, the Black Wolf let out a threatening growl.
Tang Yuan quickly reassured it, "Da Hei! Da Hei, don’t act rashly; he’s my dad."
The Black Wolf seemed to understand Tang Yuan’s words, tilting its head, reluctantly examining Song Moting.
Song Moting, Jin Dachuan, and the others were astonished—who would have thought this Black Wolf could understand human speech!
Tang Yuan and Baozi ran up and hugged Song Moting tightly.
"Dad, you finally came for us. We missed you so much; we thought we’d never see you again in this lifetime."
Tang Yuan choked up, hugging his father’s neck.
Song Moting embraced his two sons tightly.
"It’s alright, don’t be scared! Dad came to find you. No matter where you are, Dad will always find you. See, didn’t Dad find you after all?"
Kissing the two children.
He hadn’t seen them for months, and they had changed a lot. Where once their bodies were chubby and plump, now they were slender and tanned.
More importantly, the kids had grown half a head taller.
The determination and resilience in their eyes was something he had never seen before; the two seemed to have undergone a significant transformation.
The Black Wolf seemed to realize Song Moting had no intent to harm the children, so it stood aside, the four little wolves circling around it, curiously watching the people.
Once Song Moting understood the situation, he realized that this Black Wolf really had cared for the children. Without it, the kids would have starved to death.
The Black Wolf had used its own prey to feed the two children and protected them with its body.
Song Moting was deeply grateful, but standing in front of a wolf, he didn’t know what to say.
Whatever he said, would the wolf understand? Even though it seemed to understand Tang Yuan.
This didn’t necessarily mean it could understand anything else.
Song Moting speculated that the wolf might understand that they wouldn’t harm the children, which is why it lowered its guard.
He hadn’t missed how the Black Wolf was ready to fight them just a moment ago.
Song Moting was sincerely grateful; a wolf ready to fight to protect his children meant everything.
For that alone, he must thank this wolf.
Tang Yuan and Baozi each took one of Song Moting’s hands and led him to the Black Wolf. Now, Tang Yuan and Baozi were very comfortable with the Black Wolf.
Although it still warily watched Song Moting, when Tang Yuan and Baozi approached, it allowed them to stroke its fur.
The Black Wolf remained elegantly composed without moving.
Nor did it show any sign of aggression.
Tang Yuan quietly muttered.
"Da Hei, this man is my dad. He’s come to find me. I’m going back with him. Thank you for taking care of me all this time."
He also took out some pills and gave one to each of the little wolves and Da Hei.
The little wolves sniffed curiously at the pill, and once they caught its scent, they instantly gobbled it from Tang Yuan’s hand.
Da Hei, still acting cool and proud, upon catching a whiff of the pill’s scent, immediately lowered its head to eat it, showing satisfaction in its eyes.
After eating the pill, Da Hei howled toward the sky, looked back at Tang Yuan and Baozi, and disappeared into the woods with the four little wolves following closely behind.
Tang Yuan and Baozi waved.
Though they were reluctant to part with Da Hei and the four little wolves, they understood the mountains were Da Hei’s true home.
