Tibetan Mastiff Notes

Chapter 29 Wolf kills wolf (6)
The long and lonely night was hard. I was sitting by the bean-like oil lamp, and suddenly I had an idea. Although I didn’t bring a camera when I came here, I couldn’t bring back the beauty of the prairie and the image of Dahei’s mother and child, but at least I could still take it back. Record what you have seen and heard for so long.When I leave the prairie or grow old in the future, it will be a kind of warm enjoyment to relive these old and yellowed memories.

I dug out a pen and a few pages of letter paper from my bag, starting from the first day I entered Tibet, I wanted to write down every bit of my time in Tibet.As I was thinking about writing, time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was already midnight.I heard the wind blowing outside the house, accompanied by a rustling sound, which was very soft. I suddenly became alert, dropped the pen in my hand, and went to the crack of the door to look outside.

It was dark outside, and there was no movement, probably because I was too nervous.I looked at Dahei, she fell asleep very tired, as a mother, it was really hard, I thought of the hardships my mother had in raising our four children, and I felt very uncomfortable.

Dahei was lying exhausted physically and mentally. She might have heard something, but she was very tired and didn't want to move. She also knew that I had been watching over her, so she looked up at me, then at the door, and opened the door. Slap your ears.I patted Dahei's head, motioned her to lie down and rest, and don't move around, then gently opened the door and walked out.

It was very dark outside the door, only the snow on the ground could reflect a little bit of light. I tried to open my eyes and look around, listening to the sounds I heard in my ears - rustling, like a lonely traveler, tiptoeing On the snow in the dark.I also tiptoed, like a thief, and quietly approached the place where the sound came from. The sound came from behind Uncle Tashimu's house. I quietly went around the corner of the house and looked behind.A huge wolf was nesting in the corner of Uncle Tashimu's house, poking his head out, trying to jump into the front yard, but he didn't dare.The wolf may have discovered that there was still some light in Dorji's house, and was afraid of Dahei's sharp teeth, so he didn't dare to go there.I found that this big wolf looked familiar. According to Uncle Duoji today, this wolf should be one of the group that migrated from the border. It seemed to be cut off by something.

The wolf also found me, and turned to look at me. We were only seven or eight meters away. With the faint light coming from the window, I could see the ferocious face of the wolf clearly, and immediately remembered that I was in the big forest. Order the siege of our alpha wolf.That's right, this is the wolf!The wolf head can also see my face clearly. The wolf has a memory, understands human beings, and understands human language.I suspect that this group of wolves must be staring at us, and the alpha wolf wants to avenge the death of his five companions.

I thought the wolf would pounce on me viciously, so I clenched my fists and prepared for a fight.After waiting for a long time, it was strange that the first wolf squatted there motionless, just stared at me fiercely, but did not intend to attack me at all.It suddenly occurred to me that wolves act in packs, and the alpha wolf generally only serves as the commander of a pack of wolves, and will never act alone. The wolf was abandoned by the pack, or expelled by a stronger leader.

The fierce battle between this wolf and Dahei in the big forest caused it to lose a part of its tail. In fact, even a little bit of tail loss cannot erase its ability as a leader of a wolf pack. However, a wolf is a kind of wolf. In a group that has strict requirements on the ability of the group, although the alpha wolf is the leader of the wolf group, it is more likely to become the target of the members of the group.Obviously, this wolf is no longer the leader of a pack of wolves, but a down and out lonely family, or, when it was forced to leave its own wolf pack, it was very likely that it was severely taught by the new leader.As a former wolf king, how could he leave so easily?This wolf is definitely injured. I am sure of my own thoughts, so I observed carefully with the faint light. Indeed, the wolf's fur is very fluffy, standing upright, and a puff of water is sprayed out of its big grinning mouth. There was a faint smell of blood, and there was blood from the neck down to the stomach.

At the beginning, this wolf kept lying on the snow, so I didn’t see it clearly. Now that it moved its body, I easily found that the snow under it was stained red with blood, and its belly was very empty. Depressed, probably haven't found something to eat for a long time.Once the alpha wolf is expelled by the wolf pack, the fate is actually very miserable. His own group does not accept it, and when he passes through the territory of other wolf packs, he will be chased and bitten by other wolves.The nearby hills should have been almost completely divided by wolves. This poor wolf had nowhere to go. After many fights, he had to flee to human territory.Although this wolf once thought of swallowing the meat of me and Gesang, but now it seems that it has no such ability at all, but I still have not let down my guard. If it is not here for revenge, then it is hungry and wants to come. Get some home food.

The injured wolf suddenly bared its teeth at me, raised its shoulder bones high, and made a posture ready to jump.I turned my head and saw that Dahei came out at some point, and stood quietly two meters behind me, staring at the wolf motionlessly.It could be seen that Dahei had a deep hatred for the wolf. Her two small eyes shone coldly and ferociously, she slowly bared her teeth and shrugged her shoulders.

In my impression, Dahei would not take the initiative to attack such a seriously injured wolf alone, but this time it was an exception. Before the wolf had time to attack, Dahei rushed forward As soon as she jumped up, she opened her mouth to bite the wolf's throat.As expected of the former wolf king, although the alpha wolf was seriously injured, when he was attacked, he was the first to protect his own throat. It rolled on the spot and turned to the side, and Dahei bit it. It broke the back of its neck and was about to close its teeth.

"Dahei!" There was a shout, not high-pitched, but clear and severe. Uncle Duoji walked over with his clothes on. He was awakened by the low growl of the wolf during the demonstration.Tashimu's family was also awakened by the wolf's movement, because the sheep in the two pens were a little disturbed.

"What happened? Oh, there are wolves!" Uncle Zhaximu yelled. As soon as he turned around from the corner of the room, he found a wolf biting in Dahei's mouth, so he immediately took a wooden stick to beat him. that wolf.

"Don't fight yet!" Uncle Duoji told Uncle Tashimu to stop, and then called on Dahei to let go of the wolf.Dahei refused Uncle Duoji's order for the first time, and she refused to let go of her mouth, making a dissatisfied voice in her throat.

Although the wolf was not bitten by the big black in front of the throat, the back of the neck was firmly stuck by the big black's sharp teeth. As long as it moved a little, the neck would be broken, and it would be fatal.The wolf didn't dare to move, and Dahei didn't move either, they were in a stalemate.

Uncle Duoji called Dahei again and ordered her to open her mouth, but Dahei still refused. I felt that Dahei was a little abnormal, and there must be a reason for it.Gesang also ran out, so I asked Gesang to identify him.Gesang only glanced at it, and then exclaimed: "Oh my God, this is the pack of wolves that attacked our village. I recognize it. It has a broken tail!"

Only then did Uncle Tashimu take a closer look at the wolf, and then asked his wife to light a lamp to take a closer look. The light reflected circles of bright light on the snow.Everyone can see clearly that this is not a local wolf. It is very strong and looks more ferocious. Even if it is covered with serious injuries, it is still terrifying.

"Gesang, are you sure this is one of the wolves that attacked the village?" Uncle Duoji confirmed again, Gesang nodded, and Tashimu and his wife also agreed.

Uncle Duoji stepped forward and pulled Dahei away in person. Under the pull of his master, Dahei finally let go of his mouth slowly, with hatred on his face.I know that Dahei hates this wolf because of Gege's loss, maybe this wolf is the planner who hijacked Gege in the first place.Uncle Tashimu raised his wooden stick to hit the wolf, but he struck hard enough. He saw that the wolf's head was knocked down desperately, but Uncle Duoji grabbed it.Uncle Zhaximu was taken aback, and asked, "Why? You are not allowed to kill wolves?!" Uncle Duoji sighed, and said, "The wolf took one of the little mastiffs away, and we expect the wolf to take us to find it!"

Only then did I understand Uncle Dorji's intentions, but I didn't believe that the wolf would be so obedient. Although the wolf was now lying on the snow in fear of the might of the big black, and did not dare to move, the cruel and cold nature was still there. , it will obey the instructions of human beings?
Uncle Zhaximu has always wanted a little mastiff to go back, and their family also knew that Gege was taken away by wolves, because they still counted on the Duoji family to give him a little mastiff, so they had no choice but to agree to Uncle Duoji's suggestion.

Uncle Duoji grabbed Dahei, who was growling in a low voice, with all his strength. The more intense Dahei's behavior towards the wolf, the more it proved that the wolf had a great connection with Grid's loss.I began to agree with Uncle Duoji's proposal, and prepared to capture the injured old wolf back.The old horse knows the way, and the old wolf knows the words.Besides, wolves already understand part of human language, so this experienced old wolf can understand our intentions better, and it may also understand our words. When I was about to catch it, it didn't resist.When I caught that wolf, the injured old wolf was still a little scared. It also understood that once it fell into the hands of humans, its life would no longer be its own. Legs trembling.I held the four paws of the wolf with my left hand, pinched the wolf's mouth tightly with my right hand, and turned the old wolf's belly up. Only then did I realize that the reason why the wolf had no strength to resist was because of a hole in its belly.

This hole was torn open by a wolf of the same kind, and it was in the shape of a crack, more than an inch long, and a small section of intestines inside was exposed.The flesh on the hind legs was scratched and bitten to pieces, and the hair on the back of the neck was ripped bald.I was afraid of hurting the old wolf's wounds, and worried that it would die, so I asked Gesang to help support its body, and together we moved the seriously injured wolf back to the yard.

Dahei was forcibly taken back into the house by Uncle Duoji, and the little mastiff in the house was also awakened by the smell of wolf blood. They fought together, venting their young desire to attack each other.

Looking at this desolate wolf king, I finally understood the saying of human beings: the higher you climb, the harder you fall.The same is true in the world of wolves. The higher the status, the more likely they will be injured when they are expelled.The old wolf looked like it was about to die. If it was not treated, it would probably die on the way before Ge Ge found it.The old wolf was panting, wondering if the wolf's heart would change for the better when he was about to die?

Uncle Duoji took out the ointment and wiped the wound on the old wolf's hind leg.I found a needle and thread, disinfected the poison with wine, and sewed the wound under the old wolf's stomach. In order to avoid the old wolf's pain and struggle, I tied up his four legs and his mouth with cloth strips in advance.

Dahei stood at the door looking at us angrily, humming dissatisfiedly in his mouth, walked up to the old wolf several times, and bared his teeth ferociously at the old wolf.The old wolf didn't dare to move, and didn't dare to hum. He really deserved to be a wolf king, and he also knew the truth that a man who knows current affairs is a hero. Even when the needle went through his belly, it only trembled a few times like a cramp.The old wolf didn't want to accept our treatment at first, but it resisted a little at first, insisting on the concept of being a hero in life and death, and refused to accept other people's charity, but it still accepted it later, maybe it changed its mind again, thinking Before he died, he would do another earth-shattering event, and that would be revenge!

The word "revenge" is not only understood by human beings. In the life of a wolf, revenge is even more important.The wolf has a strong sense of dominance. If it dies silently before taking revenge, it will be a lifelong shame for the wolf. As long as there is a chance to take revenge, the wolf will never let it go.My guess: this alpha wolf who has suffered the humiliation of his kind may want to make a deal with us.When I expressed my opinion, Uncle Duoji asked me with a smile: "How did you think of this?" I said: "After getting in touch with wolves a lot, I gradually understood. Thinking about it in another way, if I were a member of this family The wolf who was expelled from the country was bitten into such a serious injury, and he was unable to avenge himself, so he could only borrow the power of the outside world. Human beings know how to use each other, and I think wolves also understand this truth. Although there is no common interest, everyone But everyone can get what they want, right?" Uncle Duoji nodded and said with a smile: "If you are a wolf, then you must be the wolf king."

For this injured wolf, from the second half of the night until dawn, no one in the whole family slept again, even the sleepy princess woke up.The prince even crawled from the house to the door, leaning up against his mother's front paws.I was pleasantly surprised to find that the prince opened his eyes and was staring out of the house with his dim eyes, looking a little silly. I suddenly remembered the way the army used military dogs to search for targets.In fact, the sense of smell of wolves is no worse than that of dogs, not to mention that dogs are domesticated from wolves, born in sorrow and died in peace. From this point of view, the sense of smell of wolves should be stronger than that of dogs.

The sky was bright, we prepared some food, originally we wanted the old wolf to rest for two more days before we set off, but we were afraid that Gege would die if the time was delayed, it was very likely that Gege had already been eaten by all the wolves at this time .

26. The peak battle between local wolves and immigrated wolves

Everyone is not sure whether Grid is still alive, but they still hold a glimmer of hope in their hearts.I still have an idea in my heart, that is, I hope that the pack of wolves will be smarter and know how to use Grid as a "hostage" in exchange for more benefits, so that Grid can temporarily save his life.

Because of that old wolf, Dahei was angry and didn't eat all morning. She was angry with us.I became more determined that this old wolf could lead us to find Princess, so I had no choice but to persuade Dahei and coax her at the same time.Dahei also seemed to understand our intentions gradually, and after arguing with us for a while, he was finally willing to eat. Although he was still very dissatisfied with the old wolf, he no longer took the initiative to attack it.

We had dinner and were ready to go.I took the gun, loaded the last four bullets I had, and the knife.Uncle Duoji brought a sharp knife for self-defense and an iron fork that was only as long as an arm. Dahei traveled with us, and Gesang stayed at home to take care of the little mastiff.Before setting off, I took the little mastiff under the old wolf's nose and let him sniff it.When Dahei saw this, the nurse was eager, and rushed forward to bite the old wolf.I hastily removed the little mastiff.The old wolf also took a step back in fright, shrinking his shoulders and trembling for a while, then turned his head and walked out of the courtyard.

"Let's go, follow the old wolf." Uncle Duoji whispered, we adjusted our equipment and followed the old wolf.Uncle Tashimu also followed him. He was fully dressed tightly, with a knife in his waist and a stick in his hand. He looked like a hunter, but he didn't look like a hunter. He even expressed that he would go with us. .I guess: In addition to the hatred of wolves in Uncle Tashimu’s heart, maybe he wants to get Gege back. He knows that Gege is a female mastiff, and he has always wanted a female mastiff. Xianba's family naturally wanted to get Gege back.

Too many people traveling together is actually not a good thing. The smell is strong, but it is more likely to arouse the vigilance of the wolves. In case of danger, the probability of escaping is even smaller.

Uncle Duoji knew that Tashimu's family was impatient, so he said: "Today I just follow to see, first find the wolf den, and find out the situation. If there are too many wolves and the situation does not allow, we will come back soon. If too many people go there, it’s not good, and the danger is greater.”

Uncle Zhaximu insisted on going, but Uncle Dorji couldn't resist him, so he had to agree and told him not to make a sound when he got there, but to follow us. Uncle Zhaximu readily agreed.Seeing that we had not followed for a long time, the old wolf stood in front and waited for us.I suddenly thought of a question, so I asked Uncle Duoji: "What if the old wolf leads us into the encirclement of wolves, what should we do?" Uncle Duoji smiled and said, "Your worries are reasonable, but this is a homeless family. Returnable old wolf, it is wounded like this, no wolf group will accept it. Don't forget, it used to be a wolf king, besides, the self-esteem of wolves is no worse than that of humans, and humans are not their biggest enemy, they are the biggest The enemy is themselves, and more than half of the wolves actually died of killing each other! The old wolf is now hungry and hates, and also wants us to avenge it. Before the big revenge, it doesn’t want us to die. Let’s go with it. Found something."

The old wolf probably understood what we said, and wagged its tail a bit like a dog, standing in front of us and waiting for us, especially when seeing the big black walking in front of us, the old wolf didn't dare to act rashly, it knew that the big black could Helping it a lot, I wanted to show my favor to Dahei, but Dahei didn't appreciate it.
