My 1995 Small Farm.

Chapter 391: Nature is hard to change

Chen Ling didn't believe a word of this strange nonsense.

However, since Chen Baoshuan specifically came to his home to inform him, he naturally wouldn't argue with him.

After asking a few more questions, they learned that Li Hongqi and his companions had gotten lost several times in the mountains and had been chased and retaliated against by a pack of wolves at night, with almost all of them injured. That's why they felt that this matter was unusual.

After returning from the mountains, I first asked Sister Xiufen to perform an exorcism, and then stayed at various villagers' homes to recuperate. Chen Guoping treated all my injuries.

In fact, the villagers had long known that these people had ill intentions and would certainly not do anything good in the mountains.

So after discovering that they had been injured and suffered in the mountains, most of them were secretly gloating.

Moreover, the fees charged to these people for lodging and recuperation in the village are extremely high.

They were just a bunch of tomb raiders anyway, so why should we hold back when we're ripping them off?

"...He got lost in the mountains many times and even provoked a pack of wolves to retaliate, which terrified Liu Guangli. It really sounded like what the old folks said about angering the local earth god."

"Damn it, what's going on? Is it really that weird?"

Chen Ling scratched his head, muttered a curse under his breath, and still didn't quite believe it.

In his opinion, the most eerie thing in the mountains was that miasma valley, which even Professor Han and his colleagues couldn't figure out.

Li Hongqi and the others were definitely going there for that too.

Xiao Chao from Er Mao Donkey's family mentioned this last time he came, after all, he borrowed that gun from Chen Ling.

"Don't tell me he stayed near that valley for too long, got poisoned by the miasma, started hallucinating, and ended up scaring himself, which led to all this trouble."

Thinking of this, Chen Ling chuckled and then stopped thinking about it.

I continued packing, preparing to leave for the city with my wife and kids tomorrow.

This is the top priority right now.

The things that happened in the village were hard to explain, so they started attributing them to gods and ghosts, which he found absurd and didn't take to heart at all.

Little did he know that he didn't take it to heart, but trouble would find him even though he wasn't looking for it.

That evening, just as the sun was setting and the farm's poultry and livestock had not yet returned to their roosts, a sudden, unusual noise came from the forest. Several animals became agitated and squawked wildly, while the poultry frantically flapped their wings and flew around the orchard, frantically fleeing towards the chicken coop and duck shed.

The family's puppies also barked excitedly, whimpering and whining at Heiwa and Xiaojin.

Soon, Heiwa stopped sitting next to Rui Rui like a sofa, jumped up, and ran out of the farm with Xiao Jin and the family's pack of puppies, barking loudly.

With such a commotion, Chen Ling's family naturally noticed it and rushed out to see what was going on.

This is an incredible sight.

In the dim light of dusk, a large pack of grayish-brown wild animals lingered near the ditch at the foot of the mountain. They hesitated and dared not approach the approaching pack of dogs.

"It's wolves, a large pack of wolves has come down the mountain."

Zhao Dahai, who was following closely behind Chen Ling, shuddered with his fat face and his eyes almost popped out.

He had been eating at the farm for the past few days, and when he heard the commotion, he naturally followed Chen Ling out.

Upon seeing the large pack of wolves at the foot of the mountain, he was terrified and his legs went weak.

It really is a wolf.

As soon as they came down the mountain, they terrified the farm's poultry and livestock.

The little white calf and the little blue horse are doing well.

The sheep and the three oxen were even worse; they didn't dare to bleat and all hid in the livestock shed, trembling with fear.

"It's alright, don't be afraid, the wolf pack is fine."

Chen Ling comforted Zhao Dahai, and in the meantime, Heiwa Xiaojin led the puppies over and began sniffing the wolves intimately.

Wang Cunye caught up two steps behind and was stunned when he saw the scene. He then breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "I was wondering why there was such a commotion. It turns out that the pack of wolves from the mountains has come looking for us."

Then he explained to Zhao Dahai, "Don't be afraid, they've come to find Heiwa to recognize his father."

Zhao Dahai knew the origin of Chen Ling's dog, and when he heard the old man say this, he immediately realized what was going on, but he still opened his mouth in surprise and said, "No way, these wolves grew up in the mountains and are used to being wild. They weren't raised by dogs. Do they still recognize Heiwa as their father? What if they start fighting again in a little while?"

This is something that Wang Susu, Gao Xiulan, and others are both curious about and puzzled by.

Even if a child is biologically related to his father, it's inevitable that they will grow distant if the child doesn't live with him from a young age.

Chen Ling shook his head: "They won't fight. Look, they're even playing around with our dog, belly up."

Upon hearing this, everyone cautiously approached that direction and peered over.

Sure enough, the pack of wolves were dragging their big tails, whimpering and howling, licking and playing with Heiwa and the others, while some of them were rolling around on the ground, acting cute.

It's truly astonishing that they got along so well after just one meeting in such a short time.

Wang Zhenzhen jumped down from the tree at this moment: "Brother-in-law, I saw a black wolf in the wolf pack. It's just like Erhei, covered in black fur. It's so beautiful. Can we go closer and take a look?"

Now the wolf cubs in the pack have grown up and passed through the molting period. All their baby fur has fallen out and been replaced by the coarse, thick fur of adult wolves.

Like dogs, wolves change color significantly once they molt.

Besides the bluish-gray and grayish-yellow ones, there were also wolf cubs like Erhei, who inherited Heiwa's jet-black fur and were very heroic and extraordinary.

"Okay, let's go closer and take a look."

Chen Ling hadn't seen these wolf cubs for a long time. Ever since he heard the wolf howl that day, he had planned to go to the mountains to see them, but unfortunately, he had been unable to get away due to other commitments.

Unexpectedly, they came looking for me today.

This naturally requires careful observation of how they change as they grow.

So the group of them approached quietly, afraid of disturbing them.

However, the closer they got, the more they could see that these wolves clearly remembered Chen Ling and his son-in-law. In particular, the older wolves were much more mature than the newly grown cubs in both appearance and personality, and they even awkwardly wagged their tails at them like dogs.

"Hey, everyone says ingrates, but it seems that doesn't apply to these wolves. We didn't feed them for nothing last year, they still remember us."

The father-in-law was overjoyed to see this and said with great delight.

Chen Ling nodded with delight, then squatted down and waved to the wolf pack with a smile, saying, "Tsk tsk tsk, come here, come here quickly."

Wolves are smarter and more cunning than most dogs, and they are also full of wisdom.

They can sense human emotions.

Sensing the goodwill of Chen Ling and his group, they naturally lowered their guard.

It is very easy to distinguish between the old wolves in a wolf pack and the newly grown ones.

The wolf cub is small in size and has not yet fully grown into a robust adult wolf, but its fur is shiny and looks very new.

After Chen Ling shouted that.

The wolves, who had been playing around, got up and stared at Chen Ling curiously, not understanding what he meant and somewhat hesitant to approach.

The puppies, who had been playing around, didn't care about any of this. They ran happily to Chen Ling, wagging their tails and rubbing against his legs.

While acting coquettishly towards Chen Ling, she kept barking at the little wolves, as if calling them over.

"Come here, little wolves, come here quickly."

Soon, the two sisters, Wang Susu and Wang Zhenzhen, also mustered up their courage, squatted down, and started calling out to each other while holding hands.

Under everyone's expectant gaze.

The wolf cubs cautiously and tentatively approached.

When they finally arrived in front of Chen Ling, he reached out and touched them. These guys were just like puppies, whimpering and purring, their ears tucked in, their eyes pleading for his attention.

"Oh, you really called them over. Fugui, are you going to end up raising wolves too?"

"Haha, no way. This thing is great for running around in the mountains. I never thought about keeping it at home."

"Wow, sister, look, they're so well-behaved, just like dogs."

The wolves' performance made everyone's eyes light up and their hearts fill with joy. They couldn't help but pat and stroke them.

While petting the wolf, Wang Zhenzhen also examined the male and female of the wolf cubs and their fur. Then, she touched the black wolf and exclaimed, "I told you, this black wolf looks just like Erhei. It even has a crescent moon on its chest."

That black wolf is indeed beautiful.

However, having grown up in the mountains, they often went hungry, and their diet was not as good as that of the puppies on the farm. The two groups of brothers and sisters were quite different in size.

That's how it is with this black wolf; if Erhei stood next to it, Erhei would be one and a half times stronger.

But it is still a wolf, both in appearance and personality, while Erhei has become a dog.

This is also something that worries Chen Ling.

I both like them coming over and don't want them to come over too often, because they are, after all, a pack of wolves.

"Alright, I was originally planning to take Heiwa and Xiaojin with me to the city this time, but I didn't expect this pack of wolves to come looking for us. I'd better leave Heiwa and Xiaojin at home to keep them in check."

With this in mind, Chen Ling made his decision.

Otherwise, a wolf is still a wolf, raised in the wild, eating raw meat and blood, and its nature is hard to change. Without Heiwa and his companion to keep an eye on it, it would be quite troublesome if it hurt people or the family's poultry and livestock.
