Chapter 1802: The injured crooked-headed little wolf

Xia Qing and the Broken-Faced Little Wolf walked down along the beast path. Before they even entered the valley, they saw the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf crawling out of a hidden cave at the end of the small stream, limping toward her!

Xia Qing immediately accelerated and greeted it.

The person and the wolf first sniffed each other, exchanged and confirmed each other's scent, and then began to communicate.

"Crooked-Headed one, you're injured?"

Xia Qing took action directly, gently pressing the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf down on the green grass, and checked its left hind paw, which it didn't dare to step on.

Seeing the slight swelling of the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf's left hind paw pad and the blood blister worn on the surface of the pad's stratum corneum, Xia Qing understood how it had been injured.

"Crooked-Headed one, did you go on a mission to a very, very far place with your companions?"

Lying on the grass, the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf, with its belly shriveled, nodded obediently.

After the ice and snow thawed and entered the spring, after the new generation of wolf cubs was born, the wolf cubs born last spring began to rely on their own abilities to obtain food.

The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf was a mid-level brain-domain and entry-level endurance evolutionist. Its combat power wasn't high, so its greatest strength was running; therefore, it had to exert its advantages to gain the recognition of the wolf pack members and become a main force of the wolf pack.

The blood blisters worn on its paw pads were something evolutionary wolves thought would heal on their own without treatment. Therefore, Fourth Brother hadn't brought it across hundreds of miles of evolutionary forest to find the veterinarian Zhang Shi in Mountain No. 50 to treat its wounds.

Of course, surviving in the evolutionary forest, any tiny wound could lead to microbial infection and trigger death. The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf, which had taken evolutionary forest biology courses, limping while walking was to prevent the blood blisters from being scratched by stones, infecting evolutionary microorganisms, and leading to wound ulceration.

But its blood blisters had already broken, and a dozen small insects visible to the naked eye were buzzing around its paws, with several small insects landing on the wound.

The invisible harmful microorganisms on the wound couldn't be counted.

Fourth Brother let the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf wait in this valley because it wanted Xia Qing to treat the wound for the little guy.

Since Xia Qing had come, she naturally wouldn't stand by and watch.

She picked up the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf directly, and the little guy raised its messy, furry head and licked Xia Qing's protective mask.

This was a movement Xia Qing didn't allow the little wolf to do to her. The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf was very scared now and had forgotten this.

"Don't be afraid, this is a minor injury; I'll treat it for you and it will heal soon." Xia Qing walked to the side of the stream, placed the little guy on a large, dry rock that could be reached by the sun, and smoothed the furry head of the little guy.

Then, she first washed the mud and wolf fur off her protective gloves with stream water, then wiped the gloves dry, put on anti-bacterial rubber gloves, and began to treat the external wounds for the little guy.

The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf lay quietly on the rock, and the Broken-Faced Little Wolf squatted beside it, watching quietly.

Xia Qing operated while telling the two little wolves how to treat this kind of wound, "First, rinse the paw pad with saline or cooled boiled water to wash away the small sand grains and crushed stone debris embedded in the wound. Like this stone debris stuck in the flesh, it must be picked out..."

"Then, dip a cotton ball in disinfectant and bactericidal liquid, apply it to the wound and around the wound, be sure to be careful, don't break the bulging blood blisters. After the wound is dry, apply this ointment, and then bandage the paw."

After introducing it once, Xia Qing introduced it again while treating the blood blister on the paw pad of the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf's right hind paw. There was only one blood blister on this paw that hadn't broken yet, so it was relatively simple to treat.

After treating the wound, Xia Qing introduced the ointment in her hand to the two little wolves, "This is a special ointment made by Third Brother using evolutionary purple flower ground-ding in the Blind Tiger territory, specifically for treating skin redness, swelling, and wound ulceration. Crooked-Headed one, don't use your hind paws to walk for these two days, and don't touch water. If you rest for two days like this, it will heal."

The two little wolves that had read books both knew how long two days was.

The Broken-Faced Little Wolf rubbed Xia Qing's protective mask with its furry head, then grinned to reveal its sharp little fangs, expressing its gratitude and happiness to Xia Qing in a way Xia Qing could understand.

The lying Crooked-Headed Little Wolf also propped up its body with its front paws and grinned.

Xia Qing's heart melted all at once.

After feeding the two little wolves two green-light eggs for free, Xia Qing discussed with the Broken-Faced Little Wolf, "Broken-Faced one, why don't you go catch prey for the Crooked-Headed one, let it eat its fill, and hide in the cave for two days?"

After an evolutionary wolf eats its fill, it can go three or four days without eating, which is just right for hiding and recuperating.

After the Broken-Faced Little Wolf left, Xia Qing glanced at the giant raptor circling in the high altitude.

Letting an injured wolf lie on a rock in an open area was a very dangerous thing. Even if the raptor dived down, the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf could avoid it, but the injury on its hind paw would worsen.

Between setting up a tent for this little guy and holding it, Xia Qing decisively chose the latter.

She held the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf and walked around, using her magnetic sense evolution ability to search this valley, while searching for bullfrogs, while complaining to the little guy, "Crooked-Headed one, I participated in the sampling standardization operation exam with Broken-Waist, Broken-Waist scored 100, I scored 99. Do you know why Third Brother deducted 1 point from me?"

The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf, which didn't like exams, looked at Xia Qing, waiting for her to continue.

Xia Qing sighed heavily, "Because the numbering I wrote on the sampling tube wasn't standard. The connecting symbol between the point type and the point sequence number should be a hyphen, but I used an underscore."

"Awoo." The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf responded with a sound, indicating it understood what Xia Qing was saying, and then began to complain with "awoo awoo" sounds.

"Right, that's exactly how it is. Aren't a hyphen and an underscore both just a line? It's fine as long as it can be understood. For such a small matter, Third Brother fined me 1500 points. You know, 1500 points can buy a lot of food..."

"Awoo awoo awoo awoo..."

The Big Gray Wolf and its companions lay on a high mountain not far away, quietly watching the human holding the little wolf and turning around the water pool in the valley, not going down to save their companion.

After the human from the backpack took out something not big, and then that thing quickly became bigger, the ears of several wolves all stood up, revealing their fangs.

Xia Qing in the valley introduced her new equipment to the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf enthusiastically, "This is a high-tech shelter tent I got last month. It can expand on its own when thrown out, and it's very safe to stay inside. You stay inside for a while, I'll fish the bullfrogs out of this water pool."

Thank heaven, thank earth, thank the good luck brought to her by the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf and the Broken-Faced Little Wolf. Xia Qing discovered a creature in the water pool that emitted a gentle Yi-element magnetic field!

After the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf burrowed into the shelter, Xia Qing took out the fishing net, steel pipe, and sampling box from her backpack, then put the backpack into the shelter, and started installing the fishing net to prepare to catch the bullfrog. Just as she was about to extend the net to the area emitting the Yi-element magnetic field, that magnetic field moved quickly, escaping the capture range of the fishing net and also escaping Xia Qing's magnetic sense ability perception range.

The escape speed of this creature was too fast; it couldn't be caught with a fishing net.

Xia Qing immediately retracted the net, burrowed into the snow-pack shelter, sprayed some insect repellent to drive away all the small insects that had flown in, then pulled the zipper, took off her protective suit and changed into a diving suit, and then said to the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf, which was pulling at her protective suit with its front paws, "Many thanks to the Crooked-Headed one for helping me take off the protective suit. I'm going into the water pool to take a look, I'll have to wait a while before coming up, don't worry."

The Crooked-Headed Little Wolf nodded solemnly. After Xia Qing entered the water pool, it continued to poke its head out and look at the Big Gray Wolf hiding in the bushes.

After Xia Qing disappeared, the Big Gray Wolf sniffed around, rushed to the side of the snow-pack shelter at high speed, bit the neck of the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf, dragged it, and disappeared into the dense forest.

When the Broken-Faced Little Wolf returned to the valley with a black muntjac weighing more than forty pounds, it found that Xia Qing and Crooked-Headed were both gone. It put down the prey, sniffed for a while, then picked up the prey again, burrowed into the dense forest, and found the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf and the Big Gray Wolf.

The Broken-Faced Little Wolf gave the prey to the Crooked-Headed Little Wolf, rubbed against the Big Gray Wolf, and then returned to the valley, guarding the shelter and supplies Xia Qing had set up.

Xia Qing knew nothing about the situation above. She was swimming slowly at the bottom of the water pool more than twenty meters deep, using her magnetic sense to search for that creature that could release the Yi-element magnetic field.

In the seemingly calm water of the pool, there was also a complete ecological chain, with water plants, insects, small fish, small shrimp, snails, leeches, etc., everywhere.
