Hey, what, in the late summer and early autumn of that year, God seemed to be unable to get along with us, and the rain was pouring like a scoop, endlessly.
Our protagonist, Li Dazhuang, this guy grew up in the mountains, his skin is as black as briquettes, but his heart and eyes are good, and he is brighter than the mountain spring water.
That day, he had just come back from collecting medicine in the mountains, and when he saw the dark clouds, he was anxious in his heart, for fear that he would become a chicken in the soup, and even more worried that the herbs he had worked so hard to pick would be soaked in the rain and be completely blind.
You say it's a coincidence or not, Li Dazhuang just walked into a dense forest, and the raindrops crackled like beans.
He looked around, hey, there was a cave not far away, and the entrance of the cave was so tightly covered by vines that he couldn't really find it if he didn't look closely.
Li Dazhuang thought to himself: "Well, let's hide from the rain in this cave today." With that, he quickened his pace and plunged headlong into the cave.
The inside of this cave is very spacious, very dry, and there is such an indescribable coolness.
Li Dazhuang put down the basket and was about to make a fire to keep warm, when suddenly, a faint whimper came from the hole, and people felt nervous when they heard it.
He plucked up his courage, lit the torch, and followed the sound to find him.
This is a terrible look!
I saw a wounded wolf cub, wounded on its hind legs, curled up in a corner, its eyes full of fear and helplessness. "Oh my god, this is a wolf cub!" Li Dazhuang was shocked, but looking at the pitiful appearance of the little thing, his heart softened again.
He remembered that the old people in the village used to say that although wolves are fierce, they also know gratitude.
So, Li Dazhuang carefully picked up the young wolf, bandaged its wounds with herbs and strips of cloth, and took out dry food from the basket and fed it little by little.
The rain stopped, and it got dark.
Li Dazhuang wanted to let the young wolf go when it got better, but the little guy seemed to recognize him and refused to leave.
Li Dazhuang sighed and thought, "That's it, this is also fate, let's take it home and raise it first." ”
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Li Dazhuang named the young wolf "Ah Ash".
Ah Ash is not only healed from his injury, but also strong and strong, with oily and smooth hair, and a smart look in his eyes.
Li Dazhuang loves and fears it, after all, the nature of the wolf is difficult to change, but he believes that his sincerity can be exchanged for Ash's loyalty.
On this day, a group of uninvited guests suddenly came to Wuyin Village, a group of wild wolves, wandering around the village, frightening the villagers to close their doors for fear that they would break in.
The village chief was in a hurry and gathered everyone to discuss countermeasures.
But everyone knows in their hearts that if this wolf is really ruthless, it will not be easy to deal with.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Li Dazhuang stood up and said, "I have a way, let me try." The villagers were skeptical, but now they can only be used as a dead horse doctor.
Li Dazhuang took Ah Ash and quietly walked out of the village and went straight to the mountain forest where the wolves were located.
Along the way, Ah Ash seemed to understand something, his steps were firm, and his eyes were full of determination.
Li Dazhuang stood on the edge of the forest and stopped.
He took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air and whispered to Ash, "Okay, go and tell them that our villagers don't have any bad intentions, and they won't be rude to them." Ah Shen seemed to understand what Li Dazhuang meant, and as soon as he turned around, he ran towards the wolves.
After a while, an old wolf came out of the wolf pack slowly.
There was both wariness and curiosity in its eyes.
Ash turned around the old wolf a few times, and then looked back at Li Dazhuang, his eyes full of trust.
The old wolf seemed to feel Ah Ash's intentions, and slowly approached Li Dazhuang, every step seemed particularly heavy.
Just when the two of them were only a few paces away, the old wolf suddenly stopped, raised his head and let out a long howl, which could almost pierce the clouds and shock.
Immediately after, the other wolves in the pack began to respond, but this time the voice was more peaceful and friendly.
Li Dazhuang's heart moved, he understood that this was the wolf pack transmitting some kind of signal.
Sure enough, the old wolf approached slowly and sniffed Li Dazhuang lightly with his nose, as if to confirm his identity.
Then, it turned around and let out a low call to the wolves, which slowly dispersed and disappeared into the forest.
When the villagers saw this scene, they all walked out of their homes and looked at the wolves in the distance, both surprised and grateful.
They know that all this is the credit of Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash.
Since then, a delicate relationship has developed between the Fog Hidden Village and the wolves.
Occasionally, wolves would wander around the village, but they never bothered the villagers, but seemed to be guarding the land.
The story of Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash also spread in the village and became a topic of conversation after dinner.
The two of them have also become heroes and legends in the village.
Time passed day by day, and under the care of Li Dazhuang, Ah Ash's body became stronger and stronger, and he also learned a lot of human feelings.
It is no longer as withdrawn as an ordinary wolf, but often follows Li Dazhuang, like a loyal bodyguard and his best friend.
The children in the village were so frightened that they hid away when they saw Ah Ash at first, but after a long time, they found that it never hurt people, but was very obedient to Li Dazhuang, and the children dared to approach, and some would secretly throw some meat and bones at it.
Ash is not disgusted, always wagging his tail and gently arching the children's hands with his nose to express his gratitude.
In the blink of an eye, winter is here again, the snow covers the mountain, and the entire Wuyin Village is covered with thick snow, covered in silver, and it is too beautiful to say.
But such heavy snowy days have also brought a lot of trouble to the lives of the villagers.
Especially Li Dazhuang, he is a warm-hearted person, always worried about the lonely elderly in the village and the neighbors with limited mobility, so he goes out before dawn every day and delivers firewood and food from door to door.
Early this morning, Li Dazhuang, as usual, carried a large bundle of dry firewood on his back and prepared to go out.
Ash followed him as usual, his eyes were shining, and he seemed to know that there was another "big event" to happen today.
As soon as he walked to the entrance of the village, Li Dazhuang's ears were pointed, and he suddenly heard a faint cry for help in the distance.
The sound flickered in the snow, but the movement was enough to make his heart tighten. "Oh, that's not good, eighty percent of people have suffered!" Li Dazhuang muttered in his heart, quickly quickened his pace, and rushed in the direction where the voice came from.
Ash also sensed that something was wrong, and let out a low roar, following closely behind.
They walked through a dense forest to the edge of a valley covered in snow.
Li Dazhuang took a look and saw that at the bottom of the valley, an old man was struggling, trying to climb out of the snow, but he was obviously unable to do it. "Uncle, hold on, I'm here to save you!" Li Dazhuang shouted while looking around, looking for something that could go down the mountain.
But in this snow-covered mountain, how can there be any ready-made tools?
Just as he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, Ash suddenly barked at him a few times, and then ran to the side quickly, pulling the snow on the ground with his paws, as if looking for some treasure.
After a while, Ash came back with a thick branch, which looked like it had been carefully chosen, strong and long enough.
Li Dazhuang's eyes lit up, he took the branch, and while fixing one end, he carefully slid down the hillside.
Ah Ash was like a little bodyguard, following him closely, shielding him from the wind and snow with his body, and roaring from time to time, as if to cheer Li Dazhuang on.
After some tossing, Li Dazhuang finally rescued the old man ashore.
The old man shivered from the cold, and his lips were purple, but when he saw Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash, his eyes flashed with tears. "Thank you, lad, and your ...... Wolf friends. The old man said in a trembling voice.
Li Dazhuang smiled and shook his head, "Uncle, you're welcome, this is what we should do."
By the way, why did you get here alone? ”
It turned out that the old man was an old man who lived alone in the village, and he wanted to go out to collect some firewood this morning, but accidentally slipped into the valley.
Fortunately, I met Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
After sending the old man home safely, the deeds of Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash spread in the village again.
The villagers all said that Li Dazhuang is not only a good person, but even the wolves he raises are so spiritual, he is simply a "hero among wolves".
When Li Dazhuang heard this, he just smiled honestly, "What is a hero, I am just an ordinary person and do what I can." ”
In the blink of an eye, the root of the year has arrived, and Wuyin Village ushered in the most lively time of the year.
Every household puts up lanterns, kills pigs and sheep, and prepares for a good year.
Li Dazhuang was no exception, and after he was busy, he specially prepared a "Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner" for Ah Ash - a large piece of fine lamb and a bowl of hot bud rice batter.
On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, snowflakes fluttered, covering the small village in a white veil.
Li Dazhuang and Ah Shen sat in the courtyard, around the fire, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.
The light of the fire reflected on their faces was extremely soft, as if even time had slowed down by half a beat.
At that moment, a sharp knock on the door broke the silence of the night.
Li Dazhuang's heart tightened, who could there be at such a late hour?
He put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, got up and went to open the door.
Standing outside the door was Aunt Wang from the village, looking anxious and holding a package in her hand. "Da Zhuang, no!
Your uncle Wang ...... He went into the mountains to collect medicine, and he hasn't come back yet! Aunt Wang's voice was full of tears, "I beg you, can you help me find him?" When Li Dazhuang heard this, he didn't say a word, put on a padded jacket and was about to go out.
Seeing this, Ah Shen also immediately stood up, looking at him with a firm look in his eyes, as if to say, "I'll go too!" "Good brother, let's go together!" Li Dazhuang patted Ah Ash's head, and the two of them were wolves, and they stepped into the vast night.
The mountain road is rugged, the snow is knee-deep, and every step is extremely difficult.
But Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash relied on their familiarity with this mountain forest and quickly found the route that Uncle Wang might take.
Along the way, they found many marks left by Uncle Wang, and a glimmer of hope rose in their hearts.
However, when they climbed over a mountain, the sight before them made their hearts tighten.
Not far away, a figure fell in the snow, it was Uncle Wang!
There were several medicine baskets scattered around him, apparently from accidentally falling while collecting medicine, and he couldn't get up. "Uncle Wang!" Li Daqiang shouted and hurriedly rushed forward.
Ah Ash also followed, using his body to block the wind and snow for Uncle Wang.
After some inspection, Li Dazhuang was relieved to find that Uncle Wang had only broken his leg and was fine. "Da Zhuang, thank you...... And your wolf brother. Uncle Wang's face was full of gratitude, and he said, "If it weren't for you, my old bones might have to be left here." Li Dazhuang grinned and replied innocently: "Uncle Wang, what are you talking about?"
We folks in the countryside should help each other. As he spoke, he carried Uncle Wang on his back, and Ah Ash led the way beside him, and he was a wolf, just step by step, and walked in the direction of home with difficulty but firmness.
When they returned to the village, it was dark.
But when the people in the village heard that Uncle Wang had been rescued, they all hurried to take a look.
Everyone sat around the stove and listened to Li Dazhuang tell the story of the rescue vividly, and they were all amazed, praising him for his bravery and praising Ah Ash's loyalty.
Someone even quipped: "Da Zhuang, you wolf brother is really a god!"
If there is anything going on in our village in the future, you two will work together! When Li Dazhuang heard this, he called a beauty in his heart, and secretly glanced at Ah Ash, who was also staring at him with those sparkling eyes, his eyes were full of trust and dependence.
At that moment, Li Dazhuang felt warm in his heart, and a sense of happiness and satisfaction arose.
Since then, Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash's reputation in Wuyin Village has become even louder.
They are not only the heroes of the village, but also an indispensable part of the land.
In the dead of night, the villagers would sit around the fire and tell the legendary stories of Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash, which were like flames in the fire, warming everyone's hearts.
Time flies, and a few years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Dazhuang changed from a young and strong young man to an elder in the village; Ash has also grown from the injured wolf cub to a majestic wolf king.
But no matter how time changes, the friendship between them remains the same.
Until one day, Li Dazhuang died of illness, and the entire Wuyin Village was shrouded in grief.
Ah Ash was even more in front of Li Dazhuang's grave, unwilling to leave for a long time.
The villagers understood that it was saying goodbye to the friend who had saved its life and had been with it for many years.
Since then, Ah Ash has often appeared in front of Li Dazhuang's grave, sometimes sitting quietly, sometimes whimpering quietly.
On a full moon night, the villagers can faintly hear the wolf howl in the mountains and forests in the distance, which contains both sadness and nostalgia, as if telling a legend of friendship that transcends race and life and death.
At this point, the story can be regarded as a happy end.
But we all know that in the land of Wuyin Village, which is full of magic and warmth, there are still many stories like Li Dazhuang and Ah Ash that are quietly being staged.
These stories may be ordinary, or they may be thrilling, but each of them contains the brilliance of human nature and the mysteries of nature, waiting for us to discover and sing.
