Chapter 8      White Spirit Dog!

"Master, let's run!"

"Stay calm, don't be afraid!"

Baimo also saw the wild wolf, and his face turned pale. He was panicked and prepared to escape, but was stopped by Li Zhao.

Experienced hunters know that if you encounter a wolf in the wild, it is useless to escape, because people cannot escape the wolf, and instead consume their physical strength during the escape, and then they will undoubtedly die.

On the contrary, be calm in the face of danger and fight to the death, so that there will be a glimmer of hope!

Li Zhao held the bamboo gun tightly and slowly moved towards the weeds, looking for an opportunity to take the lead. Bai Mo gritted his teeth. Although he was very scared, he still picked up the hatchet and followed him... Twenty steps... Fifteen steps... Ten steps... Finally, he saw clearly that it was not a wolf lying in the grass, but a big white dog, and to be more precise, a white dog!

Someone said, aren’t dogs the same thing?

Sorry, there is actually a difference between dogs and dogs. For example, dogs are smaller and gentle, dogs are larger and wild.

Second, the dog has only eighteen toes, but the dog has twenty toes. The two extra ones are on the hind legs, called "Wolf Fang". Any dog ​​with "Wolf Fang" has the blood of the wolf clan!

Look at this white dog, with burly figure, sharp teeth, eyes as lightning, and fur all over his body as white as snow. There is a golden vertical pattern on his forehead, which looks like he is wearing a golden crown, and he looks like he is not an ordinary person.

However, the white dog has several wounds on its body, and one of its hind legs is even more bloody. It seems that it is injured and it is difficult to move on the ground.

"Master, do you think it looks familiar?"

"Well, it looks familiar, I seem to have seen it there?"

"Notice!"

...

Li Zhao and Bai Mo looked at each other and thought at the same time, wasn’t this the white spirit dog that was given a reward on the official notice?

The hunters in Qianlonggang and the surrounding villages searched for several months but failed to catch it. They all thought it had escaped into the mountains, so the hunters also advanced into the mountains and laid out ten ambushes to try to catch it.

Unexpectedly, the white spirit dog did not escape into the mountains, but instead hid near the Black Dragon Spring, only a small hill away from the human settlement. No wonder the hunters couldn't catch it. It was so smart that they actually understood the principle of "dark under the light". The king of dogs is well-deserved!

"Roar!—Roar!"

When he found a human approaching, the white spirit dog roared angrily, but after struggling several times, he could not stand up. It was exhausted.

It's right to think about it. It must have paid a huge price when it rushed out of the siege of thousands of hunters.

"Master, it has no strength anymore. Let's catch it and go to the government to receive the reward?"

"Don't go over, back."

“Why?”

"A man, a real man, if you don't take such ill-gotten wealth, you'd better give it a freedom!"

The government has long posted a notice: If someone captures the White Spirit Dog alive, it is definitely a fortune. I don’t know how many people are jealous of it, but after thinking a little, Li Zhao decided to give up this opportunity to make a fortune because he saw six words from the White Spirit Dog’s firm gaze: If you are not free, you would rather die!

This is a free elf, and should not be imprisoned with shackles and made it a plaything for the powerful. That would be too cruel.

Thinking of this, Li Zhao put down his bamboo gun, pulled the white bun and slowly retreated several feet away. After thinking about it, he threw the remaining grilled fish over.

"Wang!-Wang!"

The white spirit dog was seriously injured and could not hunt on its own. It was already hungry. After smelling the grilled fish thrown over, she confirmed that there was no problem and immediately swallowed it... After eating all the grilled fish, the white spirit dog continued to stare at Li Zhao and Baifu, but his eyes softened a little. Obviously, it also felt that the two humans in front of him seemed to have no malice!

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, let me see your wound!" Li Zhao moved closer for the second time, cautiously, with a kind smile on his face.

The white spirit dog roared a few times but did not struggle. Obviously it chose to believe it, or it knew that struggle was useless, so it would be better to leave it to fate!

After careful examination, I found that the wound on my body was very deep. I thought it was made when I broke free from the trap, but fortunately it had not rotted or ulcerated.

He first made some spring water and cleaned the wound. He picked out several herbs with hemostatic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects from Xiaozhulou. He smashed the stone into a paste and carefully applied it to the wound. Finally, Li Zhao tore his robe torn apart and bandaged it.

Having said that, although herbs were applied to the wound, the white spirit dog was in poor physical condition, and could not prey or run, and it needed to be well cultivated for a period of time.

What should I do? Take it back to the small ancestral hall?

This is the imperial dog that was paid to the emperor. If someone discovers, not only the Bai Ling dog will not be able to protect it, but Li Zhao, Bai Mo, and Aunt Qing's neck will also have to pay for it.

Leave it near the Black Dragon Spring. If other beasts come to drink water, it will be dead, or if someone else comes over, the white spirit dog will not escape the fate of being caught.

Forget it, send the Buddha to the West, do good deeds to the end, and then help it with a shelter!

Li Zhao wandered around Heilongquan and found a good place, which was a large wild cypress forest with lush branches and leaves covering the sky and the sun.

One of the ancient cypresses is more than 20 meters high, and four or five people hugged each other. The forks on them are all the thickness of adult waists. Li Zhao quickly climbed up and chose the place with the most forks. After a little trimming with a hatchet, he built a nest of five or six feet in size with branches and leaves. It would be fine to sit two or three adults inside!

The location of this nest is very good, with dense branches and leaves covering it up, down, left and right. Even if you stand under a big tree, you can't find a nest on it.

Next, with the help of the white bun, Li Zhao hung up the white spirit dog with a vine and placed it in a tree nest. He then went to the lake to lay more than a dozen fish as its food, picked more than a dozen wild gourds to make a bowl shape, filled it with water and placed it next to the white spirit dog, so that it was foolproof.

The tree nest is at least ten meters high, and large beasts will never be able to climb up. As for humans, who would have thought that a dog would climb a tree?

"Get up here and don't be yelling around. I'll see you again in two days." After touching the head of the Bai Ling Dog, he gave some advice carefully. Only then did Li Zhao climb down the tree and go down the mountain with Bai Bu.

After walking a while, I looked back and saw that the white spirit dog was honestly staying in the tree nest, not moving or screaming. He was such a spiritual guy.

...

On the way down the mountain, I checked the traps I set before and found a great harvest. I caught four hares, three pheasants, and a pig badger with a big head, thick neck, and small sharp-eyed mouth. This is a good thing. Not only is the meat delicious, but the oil produced has certain medicinal value and can treat scalds.

What? Pig badgers are national second-class protected animals and cannot be caught and eaten?

Sorry, the Tang Dynasty did not have a "Wildlife Protection Law". Not to mention pigs and badgers, they can still eat tigers, black bears, and leopards, provided that you can beat them, otherwise you will be eaten.

This time I went to the mountain to get a great harvest, so Baima was naturally very happy, but while I was happy, my eyes looked at Li Zhao were also a little wrong...

He and Li Zhao grew up together, and knew very well how kind this little master was. He was timid, cowardly, and inferior. He didn't have any opinions except reading and writing. He could not even take care of himself in basic life.

Why did a serious illness undergo earth-shaking changes? I became smart and brave, and I could set traps, catch fish, and collect herbs... Who did I learn this from?

Along the way, Baimo looked at him secretly, wondering if the little master was possessed by a demon, or if someone else was wearing the little master's skin and impersonating him here?

I found an opportunity and took a few sneaking tricks. My skin was very compact, and it didn’t seem to be covered with it?

These small actions can naturally be hidden from Li Zhao. Li Zhao also knows that his personality and behavior are very different from the original Li Zhao, and it is easy to arouse others' suspicion.

In this era, although there was no scientific research institute that took it to slice and study, there were Taoist priests, monks, etc., which would be troublesome if they were regarded as monsters and monsters, and then splashed black blood on them and tied them to the pillars and burned them with fire.

You must find a sufficient reason to explain why you have changed.

"Baimo, I'll tell you a secret, don't tell it."

"What's the secret?"

"I still remember that after I fell into the well, I was in a coma for three days and three nights. During that time, my soul left my body and floated into the air. I met an immortal wearing a colorful clothes and holding a feather fan. Although I was born as a man, I had a peerless face that bewildered all living beings. He claimed to be the Seven Killing Saint Lord - Sha Qianmo.

This saint took my soul to heaven and earth, traveled around the world, and went to Taibai Gate, Tianshan Sect, Shushan, Changliu, and Qisha Hall. He saw countless things and taught me a lot of skills..."

...

"So, the master's skills are all from the Seven Killing Holy Lord Sect."

"Yes, you are my best partner. Just like a brother, I told you this secret. Don't tell me!

"Wuwu, the master trusts Baifu so much. Even if the white steamed bun is broken, he will never tell this secret... By the way, what if Aunt Qing asks?"

"Aunt Qing is exceptional, you can tell!"

Baimo is very loyal and smart, but like everyone in this era, he believes in the sayings of ghosts and gods very much.

Therefore, Li Zhao compiled a small mythology and solved all the problems.

Of course, the story is made up, but there is one thing that is true. If you really treat white buns as your own brothers, you will be together with life and death and prosperity in the future!
