Chapter 175
Chapter 175
Cheng Yan looked at the old Taoist priest and the black wolves curiously. Are there still wolves in Henan? Or are they black wolves? He seemed to have never seen such wolves.
"Old man, did you raise this wolf?"
Cheng Yan asked curiously with a low roar.
The old Taoist priest was obviously stunned when he heard the tiger roar. This was the roar of a tiger, but he seemed to understand the meaning of the roar.
"Do tigers really exist? Is what is recorded in the book true?"
The old Taoist priest was shocked and did not reply to Cheng Yan for a while. He only came back to his senses after Cheng Yan roared again.
"These wolves are raised by me. When I picked them up, they were just a few cubs. Later, I brought them back and raised them for two days. Then they were taken back by the wolf pack. Then they would come to see me from time to time."
The old Taoist priest looked at the big white tiger in front of him in surprise while speaking. What was written in the book appeared in front of him, which made him very curious.
After looking at the big tiger for a while, the old Taoist priest walked to the door and appeased the wolves. Now he was not afraid of the tiger. Since the tiger was really the mountain king recorded in the book, then the other things in the book were also true.
It was recorded in the book that an animal that could communicate with all things appeared. Generally speaking, the animal had a good temper. As long as you didn't provoke it, nothing would happen. Sometimes you could even ask for help from it.
After appeasing several wolves, the old Taoist priest came back and stared at Cheng Yan with resentment: "So you could understand what I said to you before? So you pretended not to understand to scare me?"
Hearing the words of the old Taoist priest, Cheng Yan's eyes drifted around. How could he speak in the language of all things in front of human eyes? It was because the old Taoist priest had seen this record and took the initiative to try to communicate with him, otherwise Cheng Yan would not speak.
"Your kid got a few of my vegetables. Do you want to compensate me?" The old Taoist suddenly remembered the vegetables he planted outside and said again.
Cheng Yan was stunned when he saw the old Taoist's appearance at this time. Good guy, I pretended that I couldn't communicate just now, and you were scared. Now that we can communicate, you are like this, right? This face is a bit wrong!
Roar "I'll catch you a rabbit later."
Cheng Yan could only roar helplessly.
"Rabbit? That's fine. Rabbits can be eaten. I'll have meat tonight." The old Taoist muttered with satisfaction.
Huh? Isn't this old man a Taoist? Can he eat meat?
Cheng Yan didn't say this sentence. It's true that he can communicate. The old man has also read the records in the book, but it's not possible that an animal can understand what a Taoist is.
But soon Cheng Yan thought of a short video he had seen before, saying that a young Taoist said he wanted to eat beef, and an old Taoist went back to flip through the book and found the saying that beef could be eaten.
At that time, it seemed that the reason why Taoist priests could not eat beef was because cattle were used to plow the fields, so they were forbidden to eat beef. But now cattle are rarely used to plow the fields, so beef can be eaten.
From here, it can be seen that Taoist priests seem to be able to eat meat.
Cheng Yan looked at the black wolves at the door and curiously growled at the old Taoist priest.
"Are there wolves here? I have been walking around in this forest for a long time, and I haven't seen any wolves."
The old Taoist priest sat on a low stool beside him, touching the little tiger, and slowly explained to Cheng Yan: "These wolves don't live here, but on the mountain next to them, which is already in another area."
On another hill? No wonder I haven't seen it. It should be a hill that I haven't visited during this period of time. I don't know if there are any good things there.
After staying with the old Taoist priest for a while, the wolves did not move, and kept looking at Cheng Yan vigilantly until Cheng Yan walked out with the little tiger.
Cheng Yan took the little tiger to other places to catch some rabbits. He wanted to bring back a few more because the old man could cook. He hadn't eaten food cooked by people for a long time. The old Taoist priest knew that he could communicate, so he got a few more rabbits and asked the old man to make him a braised rabbit and a roasted rabbit.
Now the little tiger's ability to catch rabbits is very strong. It is better to let the little tiger do the catching of rabbits. After all, Cheng Yan brought the little tiger out to let the little tiger do the work.
After strolling in the forest for a while, the little tiger soon found the rabbit's cave, so he began to look for other holes of the rabbit.
Cheng Yan watched from the side and did not interfere throughout the whole process, because Cheng Yan's hunting ability might not be as good as the little tiger now. If he intervened at that time, the little tiger would not be able to catch it.
Catching rabbits is not a short time.Cheng Yan lay down beside him, closed his eyes and began to doze off.
But after a while, he opened his eyes and looked at the tree next to him.
Hey! Is this a civet cat?
Cheng Yan looked at the small animal on the tree in surprise. The small animal looked a bit like a sable, but it was fatter than a sable and a little bit like a red panda.
There is another name for the civet cat, called the civet cat. It is an animal of the genus Civet cat in the family Viverridae. It usually weighs a few to more than ten kilograms, and its body length is only a few dozen centimeters, which is about the same size as an adult civet cat.
Cheng Yan rarely sees this kind of animal. Cheng Yan knows this animal because he played a game before. There was a pet in it, which was a civet cat, and he caught it with great difficulty.
The civet cat is a national second-level protected animal. It mainly eats fruits and grains, but occasionally eats small animals such as birds. It looks very cute.
It is a nocturnal animal, and usually sleeps during the day. This civet probably lives in the tree hole of this tree. It may be because Cheng Yan and the little tiger came and disturbed it, so it woke it up.
Looking at the civet in front of him, Cheng Yan did not provoke it. The civet has a gland. If it is provoked, it will release the gland, which will make Cheng Yan so smelly that he can't eat for a few days.
Especially Cheng Yan's nose is very sensitive now. Although it can bring Cheng Yan a lot of help on weekdays, such as finding rare mountain delicacies, it will also cause Cheng Yan to fall into some painful experiences. For example, if he suddenly smells the stench released by the civet, Cheng Yan's sensitive nose may suffer a lot.
Therefore, Cheng Yan generally does not provoke these animals with glands in the mountains and forests. He has to turn around and leave when he sees them from a distance, because these animals are a bit timid. If they see him, they may directly release the smell of the glands.
