In 1988, in a village at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, Lao Wang saved an injured clouded leopard while going up the mountain to collect wild vegetables.
However, it was Lao Wang's move that created the clouded leopard to save Lao Wang's life 1 year later.
Why is the clouded leopard injured? What kind of story is there?
Most of the Qinling Mountains are located in Shaanxi Province, and this mountain range is rolling and stretching, surrounded by drifting clouds and mist all year round, often with flocks of birds flying through the air, and a variety of rare animals and plants in the mountains.
It is precisely because of the precious animals of life that many poachers have come here, delusionally trying to get rich, and with the severe crackdown in these years, these poachers have been invisible.
Lao Wang has lived in a village at the foot of this mountain range for many years, and he has retired at the age of sixty-four, and his body is still hard.
Although Lao Wang has retired, his body is still very strong, and he often goes to the mountains to collect wild vegetables and herbs in case of emergency.
One day in the summer of 1988, Lao Wang suddenly became hungry and wanted to eat some wild vegetables, so he took the tools and prepared to go into the mountain.
Lao Wang walked along the path in the mountain forest and walked in this dense mountain forest, which always made people feel relaxed and pleasant, feeling the warm sunshine shining in the forest, and Lao Wang's heart was also particularly happy.
Lao Wang was leisurely picking wild vegetables in the forest, and the birds in the trees were hiding behind the dense leaves, secretly observing him as a visitor from the forest.
Lao Wang looked at the birds in the tree happily, and the birds were not afraid of Lao Wang's gaze, but began to chirp, as if they were communicating with other birds.
Then Lao Wang walked towards the depths, and the old king who walked in the forest was unusually relaxed in his heart, and his heart was no longer worried about the trivial things in the family.
At this moment, Lao Wang's ear heard a "whining" sound.
"What's calling?" Lao Wang wondered in his heart.
Lao Wang stopped and listened quietly to the sound that came from him, and Lao Wang heard it, which must be the cry of an animal, but Lao Wang was not quite sure what it was.
Although Lao Wang has lived at the foot of the mountain for many years, the species here are so rich that Lao Wang does not dare to say that he has seen them all.
This unheard cry aroused the curiosity of Lao Wang, who wanted to see what it was, and Lao Wang also knew that the idea of such an adventure was dangerous, but Lao Wang still wanted to find out.
Only to see Lao Wang walking in the direction where the sound came from, the steps under his feet also lightened, trying not to make extra movements to avoid frightening the animal.
Lao Wang walked in and fixed his eyes on it, it was actually a leopard, the pattern on the body was a little strange, like a cloud, this is a clouded leopard.
And this clouded leopard is still making a "whooshing" sound, Lao Wang looked at the hind legs of the clouded leopard, there was a poacher's trap clamp clamping the clouded leopard's leg, the trap rusty clip did not want to be newly arranged, and the rusty trap was also connected to an iron chain, which stretched all the way to a big tree and tied to the big tree.
The rusty trap may have been left by poachers who had come to this forest, and the chain was to prevent the prey from escaping, and the old king who thought of this did not hesitate too much, risking possible attack by the clouded leopard, and walked towards the clouded leopard.
The clouded leopard also found Lao Wang, his eyes staring dead at Lao Wang, and Lao Wang walked to the clouded leopard little by little and picked up the rusty trap with his hands.
The clouded leopard stared at Lao Wang, who was trying to open the trap, as if he understood that Lao Wang wanted to save it, and even did not attack Lao Wang.
Because the trap was already aging, Lao Wang did not open it for half a day, and then after Lao Wang rested for a while, he found a wooden stick on the ground, just enough to insert it into the gap of the trap.
Lao Wang inserted the stick into the gap of the trap, and with great effort, the trap finally loosened, and then with lao Wang's efforts, the trap gradually opened.
At the moment when the trap opened, the clouded leopard pulled out its own leg, and the old king quickly released the stick, and the trap was stuck there, because the time was too long, the rusty trap was already stuck.
At this time, the clouded leopard wanted to stand up and leave, but it could not stand up, Lao Wang hurried forward to check the situation, fortunately the injury was not very serious, Lao Wang said to the clouded leopard: "I will go and find you some herbs." ”
Then Lao Wang found herbs in the forest, and after a while, Lao Wang found the herbs he wanted, Lao Wang gave medicine to the clouded leopard, and then fed the clouded leopard some butcher shops, and then the old king left.
When Lao Wang left, the clouded leopard looked at the back of Lao Wang's departure with a different look.
Lao Wang returned home with the wild vegetables he had picked, and when his wife saw Lao Wang return, he asked, "Just go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables, how did it take so long?" ”
"Today I was really surprised and met a leopard." Old Wang said happily.
The wife hurried to the front of Lao Wang's body in a panic, and while groping on Lao Wang's body, she said, "You're all right, I didn't bite you." ”
Lao Wang smiled and said, "It's all right, it's all right, I saved the leopard's life, and the leopard stepped on the trap left by the poachers on the mountain before." He said and raised the trap he was holding in his hand.
The wife said to Lao Wang with anger: "You don't want to die, don't you know that leopards will hurt people?" If you are gone, how can I live? ”
"Oh, oh, if there is such a thing, I just look at the leopard pitiful, rest assured that it will be all right." Lao Wang said.
Then Lao Wang's wife looked at him and saw that there was nothing wrong with him, turned around and entered the room, no longer taking care of Lao Wang.
At dinner that night, Lao Wang's wife was still unwilling to take care of Lao Wang, the dinner table seemed very quiet, and finally Lao Wang still couldn't help it, comforted his wife for a long time, and apologized to his wife and promised not to do such a dangerous thing, this matter can be considered to be calmed down at home.
In the days that followed, Lao Wang still lived a peaceful retirement life with his wife, and from time to time he ran to the mountain forest to experience the tranquility in the lower mountain forest.
Little by little, the time passed, and soon it was the autumn of 1989.
At this time, the mountain forest was covered with a yellow coat, with some green in the middle, the mountain forest was full of fallen leaves, and the birds that usually appeared in the forest were gradually decreasing.
On this day, the old king's family had very few herbs left, and the old king thought of going to the mountain forest to find some, and then the old king took the tools, said goodbye to his wife, and went up the mountain.
However, it was this time that he went up the mountain, so that Lao Wang encountered an unexpected thing, and he almost lost his life.
Lao Wang walked on the path between the mountains, looking for the missing medicinal materials, Lao Wang looked for a long time in the forest, but this has entered the late autumn, Lao Wang has not been able to find the medicinal materials he is looking for, in desperation, Lao Wang made a decision, he wants to go deeper into the mountain forest to find.
However, when going deeper, no one knew what situation would be encountered, and Lao Wang did not go so deep, and Lao Wang was vigilant about the surrounding situation and walked deeper.
The deeper forest still had a touch of green, and the forest was more silent than the periphery, and after walking for a long time, Lao Wang found the medicinal material he was looking for, and Lao Wang picked up the medicine hoe and began to carefully collect the medicine.
Soon Lao Wang finished taking the medicine, and just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw something in the glimmer of his eyes, and Lao Wang quickly looked in that direction, only to see a wolf staring at Lao Wang deadly, as if staring at his prey.
Lao Wang knew that wolves usually appeared in groups, but there was only one wolf staring at him, Lao Wang picked up the wood knife in his waist, he knew that he must not be able to beat this wolf, at this time he took out the wood knife, just wanted to make a noise and scare away the wolf.
Lao Wang collided the chai knife with the medicine hoe, and then made a "Dang" sound, the wolf heard the sound and slowly took a step backwards, but did not leave, seeing the useful Lao Wang, there was a knock and then heard the sound of "Dang Dang".
However, the wolf did not retreat, but walked towards the old king, who also understood that the wolf was a lone wolf, probably a wolf king who had just been driven out by the wolves.
Lao Wang looked at the lone wolf coming towards him and said; "What bad luck!"
Lao Wang had begun to despair a little, and just as he was about to give up his resistance, a figure appeared in Lao Wang's eyes, it was a leopard with stripes like clouds on its body, which was the clouded leopard that Lao Wang had saved.
Only to see the clouded leopard bite at the lone wolf, bite on the lone wolf's leg, and then after a struggle, the lone wolf finally died at the hands of the clouded leopard.
The clouded leopard walked towards Lao Wang, who looked at the clouded leopard, and suddenly he noticed a scar on the back leg of the clouded leopard, and at this moment he understood that this was the clouded leopard he had saved.
At this time, the clouded leopard had come to Lao Wang's body and rubbed Lao Wang's leg, and Lao Wang saw the wound left by the clouded leopard when he had just fought with the lone wolf, and he was a little grateful in his heart, so he hurriedly took out some herbs from the back basket and applied medicine to the wound of the clouded leopard.
Then seeing that the wound of the clouded leopard was no longer bleeding, Lao Wang thought about leaving, lao wang turned to leave, but the clouded leopard followed Lao Wang, like a security guard, and sent Lao Wang out of the forest before leaving.
Lao Wang looked at the back of the clouded leopard leaving, and sighed in his heart, he did not expect that this clouded leopard would also repay the favor.
After returning home, Lao Wang told his wife about the matter, and his wife was a little afraid in his heart, some lucky, afraid that Lao Wang was injured, fortunately Lao Wang met a clouded leopard.
After that, his wife chatted with Lao Wang for a long time, and all of them lamented that the clouded leopard saved Lao Wang, and lamented that "all things have spirits."
Every living being in the world exists as an equal being, and when you save a living being because of kindness, you may unconsciously redeem yourself.
For the sake of this beautiful world, we must learn to live in peace with the beings of the world.
