Republic of China: Guandong Ginseng King

Chapter 181 Unexpected Situations
Everyone worked together, and after some effort, they finally stripped all the thirty or so wolves of their flesh.

Then cut off some of the wolf meat and throw it directly into the pot to stew, then put some onions, garlic, star anise and other seasonings into the pot.

After stewing for a while, the whole wooden house was filled with the aroma of wolf meat.

About an hour and a half after Qu Shaoyang and his companions returned to the wooden house, the Zhou brothers came back with their people.

It was obvious that the other group had a bigger harvest, as all four sleds were filled with wolf corpses.

"Brother Zhou, you're back. How's it going? Is everything going well?" Qu Shaoyang happened to come out and met them, and hurriedly greeted them.

Zhou Chuanren shook his head. "Two dogs died, and the others were seriously injured. The people were also injured. Sigh."

Qu Shaoyang took a look and saw that there were indeed two dead dogs on the sled, and the other dogs were also injured.

Wang Mulin from the Old Wang family had his arm bitten by a wolf. It seemed that his arm was broken and was hanging with a bandage.

There was also a young man named Gao, whose calf was bitten through by a wolf and he walked with a limp.

When going into the mountains to hunt, injuries are inevitable, and Qu Shaoyang didn't take it to heart.

The staff on both sides are the same, and Qu Shaoyang even transferred all his own guys to the other team.

As for what kind of situation he encountered, that was not something he could foresee.

"Come in and rest first. We have cooked dinner. Let's eat first and rest for a while. Apply medicine and bandage to the injured."

Qu Shaoyang sighed and told everyone to go into the house quickly.

Everyone dragged the sled into the yard, then carried down the wolf carcasses, brought them into the house to rest for a while, and then skinned them.

Here, Qu Shaoyang and the Chen brothers disinfected and applied medicine to the injured.

Qu Shaoyang always felt that something was not right. Normally, this group should have reaped a very rich harvest.

But there was no smile on anyone's face. Instead, they were sighing, with an inexplicable panic and fear in their expressions.

This made Qu Shaoyang very strange.

"Chunfu, tell me, did you go smoothly in suppressing the wolf pack? Did you encounter any strange things?"

Qu Shaoyang thought about it, then called Jiang Chunfu, Xingjia Xingye and others aside to ask them.

"Boss, I won't hide it from you. We encountered a strange thing this time." Jiang Chunfu scratched his head, not knowing where to start.

Qu Shaoyang was stunned at the time and didn't understand what Jiang Chunfu meant.

They had already destroyed the wolf pack's lair, and both sides had killed seventy to eighty wolves in total.

Even if a few wolves escaped, it wouldn't matter. How can it be said that it was a big disaster?
"Tell me in detail what happened.

If there is any mistake, let's find a way to make up for it as soon as possible." Qu Shaoyang asked anxiously.

Under Qu Shaoyang's questioning, several people finally told the story of how they encircled and suppressed the wolf pack.

At first, they did follow the plan they had agreed upon in advance, laying traps and finding appropriate things to hide.

At dawn, everyone noticed that several wolves had appeared, probably going out to look for food.

Zhou Chuanren gave an order and killed all the wolves.

The gunshots alarmed the wolves in the Wild Wolf Valley, and soon, more than a dozen daring wolves came out.

The first round of attack was easily resolved by Zhou Chuanren and his men. More than a dozen old, weak and disabled wolves were either caught in traps or shot to death.

Immediately afterwards, more than thirty wolves came out. These wolves were all young and strong wolves, and were the main force of the wolf pack.

“We thought the wolves were going to attack, but they were not in a hurry and instead lined up in a row.

After waiting for a while, two more wolves came out.

No, that's not right, it should be said that there was a big wolf and a small creature that looked like a wolf but was not a wolf." Jiang Chunfu recalled the situation at that time.

“That little creature is not even as tall as the giant wolf’s legs, its front legs are short and its hind legs are long, so it stumbles when it walks.

It looks like a wounded dog, but it has a fox-like mouth. It's very strange." Xingjia also spoke up. "The fur color of that little fellow is different, the upper body is white, and the lower body is gray.

That giant wolf should be the one we encountered last year, as big as a small donkey.

As soon as it roared, all the other wolves lowered their heads and bodies to the ground. It was obviously the wolf king.

The little thing climbed onto the wolf king's body and then made some very strange noises.

When we heard that sound, we got goose bumps all over our bodies.”

After hearing this, Qu Shaoyang roughly knew what was going on. Zhou Chuanren and his group actually encountered the legendary wolf.

Isn’t there an idiom called “being in cahoots with each other”?

Legend has it that the wolf-dog is a very cunning and strange creature, more brutal and vengeful than a wolf.

This animal itself has poor fighting ability, but it has superior intelligence and can be considered a military strategist among the wolves.

It is said that there is a mysterious contract between wolves and hyenas.

If a wolf chooses to join a wolf pack, it cannot quit halfway, and its fate will be closely linked to that of the wolf pack from then on.

If a wolf pack suffers from natural disasters, man-made calamities, or severe damage from other ferocious beasts, resulting in the pack's destruction, the wolf-dog must also die to atone for the crime.

The wolf pack that the wolf chooses to join must be very large, and the wolf king must be extremely intelligent. Even the other wolves in the pack are the elites and best among the wolves.

All the wolves in the pack obey the orders of the Bei unconditionally. In fact, the Bei is equivalent to the shadow king of the wolf pack.

"I just checked, among the wolves you pulled back on the sled, there was no wolf king, nor the wolf you mentioned.

So, they ran away, right? "

Qu Shaoyang remembered a legend his master had told him and could no longer remain calm, so he asked anxiously.

“Yes, they are not in there.

Boss, you don’t know how evil those wolves are.

They pushed the old wolves caught in traps forward, triggering all the traps we had buried, rendering them ineffective.

Afterwards, the wolves actually tore their companions apart and ate them alive. After eating, they attacked us. "

Whenever Jiang Chunfu thought of the situation at that time, he felt a chill on his back. Those wolves were so cruel.

However, even stranger things are yet to come.

When the wolf pack suffered heavy losses and most of them were killed or injured, the wolf king and the little creature made very strange noises.

Afterwards, the wolves rushed forward with red eyes, completely unafraid of death.

It was precisely for this reason that, although Zhou Chuanren and his team managed to kill most of the wolves in the end, they also suffered heavy losses.

When they were cleaning up the battlefield, everyone discovered that the wolf king and the little creature were nowhere to be seen.

Therefore, everyone was somewhat frightened, which was why they were still feeling scared after returning.

"Fuck, why didn't you tell me about such an important matter when you came back just now?

This is bad, the little thing you are talking about is more powerful than the Wolf King.

This thing can also recruit other wolf packs and command all wolf packs in the forest to fight for it." Qu Shaoyang said angrily and anxiously.

The crowd killed the wolves reasonably, causing great damage to the wolf pack.

Wolves are very vengeful creatures, and the wolf king will certainly take revenge, but he may not be able to gather strength and make a comeback in a short period of time. At least they can return to the village safely and recuperate.

But if there is a wolf pack with a wolfhound, things are different. The wolfhound can command other wolves and make them obey his orders.

The wolves moved very quickly, and by now they had probably already gathered and were heading towards them.
