Chapter 271

Just as Wang An was applying tobacco powder to Si Huang, who was the most severely injured, Mu Xueli and Wang Li also ran over.

Mu Xueli was just about to speak when he saw the dead wild leopard in front of him and the miserable state of the group of dogs, and he immediately became stunned and dumbfounded.

When Wang Li saw this scene, he was also immediately shocked and dumbfounded, his mouth hanging open, forgetting to close it.

The scene presented to the two was a group of exhausted, injured dogs surrounding the corpse of a massive wild leopard.

The dogs were lying or crouching there, all sticking out their tongues to lick their wounds.

This group of dogs—some were bleeding on their bodies, some on their legs, some on their necks, some on their heads, and some on the corners of their mouths; in any case, none were without injury.

And on many of the dogs' bodies, the wounds were not just in one place, but there were many wounds.

Wang An was focused on bandaging the dogs and didn't have time to pay attention to the two.

After a while, Wang An discovered that the two were still standing there like idiots, not knowing to treat the dogs' wounds, so he raised his head with wide eyes and shouted:

"What the hell are you two staring at? Are you blind? Can't you see the dogs are injured?"

Wang An was very dissatisfied with the two's performance at this moment, so his tone was quite harsh, with a rhythm of wanting to take action at any time.

Wang An's shouting instantly woke the two from their stupor, and they hurriedly took out the tobacco powder from their pockets.

Then both of them squatted down and began to apply tobacco powder to the dogs' wounds, and both of them also learned from Wang An and untied their leg wrappings.

Because some of the wounds on the dogs were relatively large, the tobacco powder would fall off as soon as it was applied, so it was necessary to wrap them with the leg wrappings.

It must be said that the wild leopard not only has formidable combat power but is also very damaging; the wounds on the dogs were basically all from the wild leopard's scratching and biting.

As long as they were scratched, it was a light injury if it broke the skin, and a heavy injury if it inevitably left three deep blood grooves and one shallow blood groove.

As for the bite wounds, they were probably forced to let go as soon as they bit down, so there was nothing serious.

Soon, the wounds on all ten dogs were bandaged by the three.

Saying bandaged, it was actually just applying tobacco powder; for small wounds, just apply it and be done, for large wounds, apply it and then wrap it with leg wrappings.

After bandaging, the three discovered that, including Si Huang who was the most severely injured, all the dogs looked miserable, but none had suffered fatal wounds.

It must be said that this was a blessing in disguise.

Saying it was a blessing, it was actually because the dogs were relatively united; if any dog had been bitten and the others hadn't rescued it, then this wild leopard would have definitely run away with the dog in its mouth.

One must know that with the wild leopard's strength, carrying prey similar to its own weight up a tree is a very simple thing.

And this 170 or 180 jin wild leopard, if it were carrying a 100-plus jin dog and running, it would be like child's play.

Fortunately, the pack of dogs led by Da Hei fought for their lives, which prevented the wild leopard from succeeding and instead pinned it down.

Truly formidable!

Only then did the gloom on Wang An's face dissipate, and a smile appeared.

In this era, mountain-goers and mountain-going dogs are the same; injuries are common occurrences, as long as there is no death or disability, then everything is fine, and no one will take it to heart.

Seeing Wang An's expression improve, Mu Xueli and Wang Li also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Mainly because Wang An's aura was too heavy when he was angry, and Wang An was also scolding the two while he was angry.

To be honest, Wang An's outburst truly scared the two quite a bit.

Wang An was in a better mood, so his speech naturally wouldn't be like eating gunpowder anymore, so Wang An said to the two with a smile: "Can you two show some progress? A single wild leopard and you were scared into not knowing what to do? Isn't it shameful for such big men?"

After Wang An finished speaking, the two immediately blushed with shame.

Seeing that the two didn't dare to argue or speak, Wang An ordered: "Alright, get to work, you two take out the leopard gallbladder, and just feed the wild leopard meat to the dogs."

"Alright, brother-in-law, fourth brother," the two were as if granted amnesty, and very happily went to disembowel and bleed the wild leopard.

Wang An wasn't idle either; he hugged the dogs one by one, touched their heads, and then said a few words of praise.

Whether it's a person or a dog, when injured, they all need warmth, comfort, and encouragement.

Don't think that because a dog is an animal, it doesn't need mental comfort and encouragement.

In fact, besides its way of thinking being different from humans and its IQ not being as high as humans, what it needs mentally is no different from humans.

Many times, actions like hugging and petting might have a better effect than feeding it meat directly.

When Mu Xueli took out the leopard gallbladder, Mu Xueli and Wang Li simultaneously let out an exclamation of four characters:

"Oh my god!"

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, look at this wild leopard, it's so skinny, but this leopard gallbladder is this huge!"

Mu Xueli held the leopard gallbladder and ran toward Wang An, and like presenting a treasure, said to Wang An.

Wang An turned his head to look, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, instantly letting out an exclamation of two characters: "Holy shit!"

Mu Xueli and Wang Li saw Wang An's surprised expression and simultaneously burst into loud laughter: "Hahahaha..."

Although the leopard is not as large in build as the black bear, nor as heavy in weight, it must be said that the leopard gallbladder is truly not small.

The leopard Wang An killed last time was less than 100 jin, but the leopard gallbladder was already significantly larger than the gallbladder of a black bear weighing about 200 jin.

This leopard was even larger, so the gallbladder must be even larger, but what Wang An didn't expect was that this leopard gallbladder was already about the same size as a bear's gallbladder.

Perhaps the origin of "leopard gallbladder" in "eating bear heart and leopard gallbladder" is because the leopard gallbladder is very large.

Wang An took out a cloth bag and put the leopard gallbladder away; although the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't accept this, its medicinal value is genuinely not small.

Feng Chengmin once mentioned that soaking this thing in wine to drink is very good for the eyes and also has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying.

Especially for fright and palpitations, the effect can be said to be immediate; it is said that if you drink water soaked with this thing during the day, you won't have nightmares when sleeping at night.

After putting away the leopard gallbladder, they began to cut the meat to feed the dogs; perhaps the dogs had a great hatred for this thing.

So such unpalatable meat seemed to be a supreme delicacy to the dogs, and even Xiao Hei ate quite a bit.

Only the four puppies were quite useless; smelling the meat from afar, they were actually so scared they peed themselves.

This angered Wang An so much that he had the heart to kill the four dogs; such cowardly dogs, what use could they possibly be?

Wang An looked at the four puppies, whose entire bodies were shivering because the leopard meat was nearby, and the more he looked, the angrier he became.

He was so angry he was practically gnashing his teeth; what kind of damn useless dogs are these?

But soon, Wang An's eyes rolled, and he thought of a good method.
