Chapter 45 Two wolf cubs



Back to the cave, it was still early.

Mother Ba and a group of women were sitting in the sun spinning and weaving.

Seeing the three men carrying a wild wolf back covered in blood, the group of women were not surprised, but frightened as if their nest was exploding. They dropped what they were holding and swarmed around them.

He threw the wild wolf to the ground with a puff, then sat down on a stone to wipe his sweat, but before he could sit firmly, his mother grabbed his ears.

Gu and Xu Chen were in the same situation. They were surrounded by a group of women who touched and grabbed them, and some women cried and wiped their tears and scolded them.

Ye squeezed into the crowd and held Xu Chen's arm tightly, tears rolling down her face.

A group of children screamed and lay on the wild wolf and began to suck blood.

The scene was a complete mess.

"Ouch~owoo~"

The wolf cub in the carrier seemed to be frightened by the noisy sounds and chaotic movements, and began to howl like milk in the carrier.

The crowd fell silent for a moment, and then a woman poked her head into the backpack on Xu Chen's back. She was so frightened that she reached in, grabbed a little wolf, and threw it to the ground.

"You can't throw it, you can't throw it!" Xu Chen quickly hugged the woman's hand and snatched the little wolf back.

“@#¥&……”

The woman shouted loudly, her tone full of reproach.

"Muba, raise this little wolf!"

Xu Chen smiled dryly and pointed to the pony tied by the woods and explained to the mother.

Mother shook her head, and the other women all shook their heads too.

"Raising them up is useful!" Xu Chen could only continue to explain.

Even after living together for so long, the language barrier still exists.

Because the language is too simple, complex communication cannot be carried out.

On weekdays, we usually talk about things like eating, drinking, having sex, and simple things we have learned, nothing too complicated.

What's more, the tribe is still in a semi-savage state, and there is no concept of farming or raising livestock at all. Therefore, raising wild beasts cannot be explained at all, and there are no words to express the meaning of raising animals. Therefore, what Xu Chen said means that everyone

It's impossible to understand.

However, Xu Chen’s meaning is very clear, he should be raised like a pony.

But wolves are different from horses after all.

Horses are herbivores and pose no threat to humans, but wolves are ferocious beasts and will definitely be in danger if they are raised large.

This is also the reason why people in the tribe have no prejudice against ponies, but will fall to death when they see a wolf cub.

They all understand the habits of wild wolves, which are very vengeful. Once these wolf cubs are raised in the mountains, they may attract wild wolves to attack the tribe.

Seeing Xu Chen explaining to a group of women over and over again, Ye felt very uncomfortable.

Chen has changed a lot since waking up. She has invented and made many good things that are useful to the tribe. She rarely asks for anything on weekdays, but now she is in such embarrassment because of two wolf cubs that pose no threat. She feels that the mother has gone too far.

What's even more outrageous is that her mother will not agree to her sleeping with Chen.

This has always made her unhappy.

So Ye turned around and yelled angrily at Mu Ba: "Chen Ga is making ropes, baskets, hoes, pottery, cloth, you...can't...can't...no...can't...wuwu, you are bad...

…”

Ye communicated the most with Xu Chen and learned the most. She could also communicate with Xu Chen in slightly more complex language on weekdays. But after all, she had only learned for a short time, and she still couldn't express many of the things she wanted to express, and she could only cry in the end.

Use a bad word to express your anger.

Muba and a group of women slowly became quiet.

Some older women whispered a few words to Xu Chen, and several younger women seemed a little ashamed and began to speak for Xu Chen.

In the end, Muba could only sigh and nod.

So this matter was put aside for the time being. Xu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly found a larger rattan basket to put the little wolf in. He moved it to the entrance of the cave and found a place to put it away. He also yelled at a group of children.

After a few words, he went to help treat Gu's wounds.

Gu's shirt was almost completely torn.

Although their bodies looked covered in blood, the group of women were very nervous, but they slowly calmed down after taking off their clothes and checking.

They were all skin injuries. The wounds had stopped bleeding and started to scab on the way back, so it wasn't a big problem.

A group of women surrounded Gu Heju and scolded him before they dispersed and started spinning and weaving again.

Although Gu didn't care about his injuries and was even a little proud.

But Xu Chen still brought linen cloth, washed all the wounds again with warm water, and then pounded some medicinal powder and applied it to the wounds.

The wolf carcasses brought back had been thrown onto the pulp-covered rocks outside the cave by the two men who were in charge of looking after the house, and they began to slaughter them. Amidst the splattering of blood, a tattered wolf skin was peeled off.

Come down.

However, this wolf skin is obviously useless. The softest waist and abdomen area is broken like a sieve, with more than ten holes, large and small.

"Poga!"

A man lifted up the wolf skin and looked at the wolf skin with a regretful expression on his face.

"Po" is a word Xu Chen taught them, but "Ga" is a spoken word, so there is no need to feel uncomfortable.

Gu Heju, on the other hand, told the two men how to kill the wolf with a proud face.

This was the first time that the two of them had hunted an adult beast, and it was also a ferocious beast.

Although the main task of killing the wild wolf was completed by Xu Chen, it was still counted as the collective gain of the three of them.

Therefore, they can also hang the two sharp wolf teeth around their necks as trophies.

With the trophies of beasts, they can be regarded as warriors of the tribe.

This is a rare honor for men.

Seeing the two men knocking out two bloody sharp fangs from the head of the slaughtered wolf, Xu Chen turned around to look at his little wolf with a twitching face.

It is said that the earliest dogs were domesticated from wild wolves.

However, some people disagree and believe that dogs are domesticated from wild dogs that belong to the same family as wolves.

Although the two are genetically similar, their habits are completely different and their food is also very different.

Wolves are purely carnivores, but dogs can be considered omnivores. They not only eat meat, but also grains and fruits, and most species even eat feces.

And there is an idiom called wolf ambition, which describes a wolf that cannot support the family.

If wolves could really be tamed, there would be no such prejudices and opinions.

Therefore, Xu Chen also had great doubts and uncertainties about this wolf cub domestication plan.

Even if dogs were domesticated from wolves, the process would definitely be long.

It will definitely not be possible to tame two wolf cubs randomly by catching them, but they will slowly become friends of humans through continuous reproduction and domestication from generation to generation.

Because it is too difficult to make a wolf eat shit.

But as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Now that he has obtained the two wolf cubs, he has to try anyway, just in case he has a good character and succeeds.

Two wolf cubs huddled together in the cane frame, and a group of children gathered around to watch.

However, Xu Chen was very honest under the threat of beating up the two little wolves, and no one touched the two little wolves.

Seeing Xu Chen's hand reaching in, the two wolves let out low-spirited roars at the same time, and even opened their mouths to reveal a mouth full of tiny teeth. One even pounced on Xu Chen's fingers, biting Xu Chen's fingers fiercely, shaking his head and tearing them apart.

"hiss!"

Feeling the little wolf's bite, Xu Chen couldn't help but tremble a few times.

It looked like the dog was still sucking milk, but the bite still hurt a little.

So Xu Chen gave the little wolf biting his hand several consecutive blows. The little wolf couldn't stand the pain before he let go.

Judging by their size, these two little wolves are probably already one month old.

Judging from the time, it is possible that he was born after that hunting.

Perhaps when the first wolf took several other wolves to the river beach to hunt, the female wolf was pregnant and stayed in the canyon. As a result, Feng and others killed them in large numbers, killing all the half-grown wolf cubs left in the den.

, only the pregnant female wolf was more vigilant and escaped by hiding. Then she gave birth to these two cubs in the canyon and slowly raised them.

Dogs can generally be weaned and fed after they are one month old.

However, wolves are pack animals and will generally grow up to be one or two years old under the care of the pack before starting to hunt.

However, wild animals are more adaptable and can usually start eating after their teeth grow.

The two little wolf teeth in front of me are almost full, and their bite force is also good. There should be no big problem in eating.

In view of the dietary differences between wolves and dogs, Xu Chen felt that in order to raise wolves into dogs, the first step is to change their diet structure, eat less raw food of flesh and blood and eat more cooked food, so that they can become familiar with and accustomed to living with humans. Only in this way can they

Dependence on humans.

If the wolf eats raw and cold-blooded food every day, the wild nature of the wolf will be indelible, and it will be almost impossible to support a family.

Thinking of this, Xu Chen went to get some minced wolf meat that was being slaughtered, smashed it into a paste with stones, then found a pottery bowl to put it in, put some water in it, stirred it evenly, and then put it in the fire pit to simmer.

Although this is a bit cruel, for the survival and development of mankind, we must ensure that we are more cruel than wild beasts. This is an evolutionary process of natural selection.

Only when you are strong enough can you be qualified to show mercy.

However, feeding the wolf cubs with the flesh and blood of the female wolf was just an experiment by Xu Chen.

If you don't eat wolf meat, you can only eat grain rice or chew meat bones. If you don't eat anything, you can only starve to death.
