During the Chinese New Year, the train runs more than an hour later, departing from the Sentie Railway Station at nearly nine o'clock in the morning.
As a result, the car broke down halfway, and it took several hours just to repair the car.
By the time the train arrived at Ma'anshan Forest Farm, it was already past three in the afternoon.
In fact, this is not bad. When logging and transportation are busy, the small train has to pick up the original trolley and so on. It is common to be delayed for an hour or two.
If one day we encounter an original car accident or something, and need to call a tow truck for rescue, it will be even less accurate. It happens at 7 or 8 o'clock in the evening.
So Sheng Xiping didn't take it seriously. He got off the train with his things on his back and walked back along the simple forest road from Ma'anshan to Maekuan.
This road is less than thirty miles, and at Sheng Xiping's speed, he can get home in about two hours.
The simple forest road was originally a tractor road. It was naturally not too wide, just the width of a tractor, and there were woods on both sides of the road.
The second-growth woods on both sides of the road have grown quite tall over the past ten years.
If it's summer and the trees are lush, it's nice to walk on this simple path in the forest with green shade all the way and not feel the heat at all.
But this season, all the leaves on the trees have fallen off, the north wind is blowing, and the wind makes a whining sound through the forest.
Coupled with the footprints of various beasts in the snow in the forest, let's just say that if you are timid, walking this road alone will probably scare you to death.
Sheng Xi usually hunts all year round and has some skills. He is quite courageous and not afraid.
However, it is getting later and later, the sky is getting darker and darker, and many wild animals come out to look for food in the evening.
Even if Sheng Xiping wasn't afraid, he didn't bring a gun today. He only had a knife. What if he encountered a ferocious beast?
Therefore, Sheng Xiping kept walking and walked back quickly.
But as he walked, Sheng Xiping felt something was wrong, as if something was following him.
There was no obvious movement behind him, but the hunter's intuition told him that there must be something behind him.
That eerie, hair-raising feeling of being stared at, there must be something following behind.
I guess it's not a cat. Generally speaking, cats are good at sneaking and attacking, rather than following along.
It's not like a wild boar. The wild boar makes a sound when walking, and its breathing is obvious.
It's unlikely that it's a black blind man in this winter, as all the black blind men have gone to their warehouses.
Even if some of them were disturbed and left the warehouse, they would walk up the mountain and not come up the forest path.
Sheng Xiping probably guessed what it was, so he slowed down a little.
No matter how fast people run, they can't compare to the wild beasts in the mountains and forests.
If he ran away now, he would expose his flaws and cause the beast behind him to attack.
All we can do now is to respond calmly and act according to the situation.
Sure enough, just a few minutes after Sheng Xiping deliberately slowed down his pace, he suddenly felt something hit his shoulders.
Wolf, only wolf would do this.
When a wolf encounters a person, it can follow him for a long time and then look for an opportunity to sneak up on him from behind.
The wolf will put its paws on people's shoulders. When most people encounter this situation, they will definitely turn around and take a look at what it is.
However, when a person turns his head, the vulnerable part of his throat will be exposed to the wolf's mouth.
The wolf directly opens its mouth and bites the person's throat, and the person is immediately disabled.
Knowing that it was a wolf, Sheng Xiping's heart calmed down.
He quietly took off his gloves, raised his hand to grab the wolf's paw, and then tilted his head back.
Just in time, he pressed his head against the wolf's lower jaw, so that the wolf could no longer lower its head to bite.
The wolf was not small, but after Sheng Xiping grabbed it so hard, the wolf's two hind legs lifted off the ground.
The wolf wanted to break away, but its two front paws were tightly grasped by Sheng Xiping and could not move away at all.
The only two hind legs that could move kept kicking, causing Sheng Xiping's pants to rattle.
No matter how hard the wolf struggled, Sheng Xiping maintained this posture and carried the wolf back home.
Fortunately, the place where he met the wolf was only about ten miles away from the Qianchuan Forest Farm.
It can be said that it is very tiring to carry a wolf that weighs almost a hundred pounds and is struggling constantly for ten miles.
However, no matter how tired he was, Sheng Xiping could not let go and could only grit his teeth and move forward.
By the time one man and one wolf entered the forest farm, it was already past five o'clock, the sky was dark, and there weren't many people outside.
Fortunately, the Sheng family's new house was not far to the east of the forest farm. Sheng Xiping carried the wolf and quickly returned to his home.
Before they even entered the yard, Erlangshen and Heijun started barking at home.
These two dogs smelled the wolf's scent and thought that the wolf had entered the village.
When Erlang Shen and Black General called out like this, Hua Leopard and Fat Tiger also called out.
The two puppies are almost half a year old, and they have grown quite a lot, but their barks still sound very childish.
Four dogs were barking at the same time. How could there be any other sound in the yard?
Sheng Xiping wanted to go into the yard and call out loudly for people to come out and beat the wolf to death, but when the dog barked like this, nothing could be heard clearly in the house.
Of course, when the dog barked like this, something felt wrong, so the Sheng family hurriedly came out of the house to check.
"Brother, why are you back at this time?"
Sheng Xi'an came out and saw that his eldest brother was back. He was quite puzzled and asked quickly.
"Stop talking nonsense and call our dad out. Didn't you see that I'm carrying a wolf on my back? Call my dad out quickly and beat the wolf to death."
Sheng Xi rolled his eyes at his second brother angrily, why was he so blind? Is it wrong that he didn't see the situation?
It was so dark that Sheng Xi'an really didn't notice what was going on behind his brother's back.
As soon as she heard that her eldest brother had returned with a wolf on his back, Sheng Xi'an's expression immediately changed, and he turned around and ran into the house.
"Dad, hurry up, my eldest brother is back." This idiot was so frightened and anxious that he couldn't speak clearly.
"Your eldest brother will come back as soon as he comes back. Why are you still acting like this?"
Sheng Liancheng and his wife were sitting on the south kang in the east room. They were quite surprised when they heard the second son's words. What was his expression?
"No, my eldest brother didn't come back alone, he was carrying a wolf on his back."
Sheng Xi'an was so anxious that he finally spoke clearly.
"My elder brother said, let dad go out quickly and help kill the wolf."
When Sheng Liancheng heard this, his expression changed, and he hurriedly put on his shoes and walked out.
"Why did you meet a wolf? I haven't heard much about wolves in the past few years."
While muttering, Sheng Liancheng casually grabbed the pole holding the door and came out of the house.
When I came to the yard and took a look, it was like the second child said, my eldest son was carrying the alpha wolf.
Without saying a word, Sheng Liancheng picked up the pole and hit the wolf on the waist.
Canids, whether they are wolves, jackals or dogs, all have the same characteristics: copper heads, iron bones and tofu waist.
At this age, Sheng Liancheng has experienced a lot. When he first came to Northeast China to work, he also saw wolves.
There were many wolves in those days, and wolves often entered the villages. It was a trivial matter to take away poultry and livestock, and some even took children into their mouths.
Sheng Liancheng had seen people beating wolves and knew the wolves' weaknesses, so he used enough force to hit the wolf's waist with the stick.
