The Blessed (Book 1)

175. Lord Wolf; Pathetic Jingxuan (1)

This sudden accident disrupted their original plan of picking wild fruit. After they carried that giant boar home, Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui no longer went back, while others still had to go back to carry those picked wild fruit back. Unsurprisingly, seeing that giant black wolf, Lady Wang, Lady Yang and Song Shuiling all even didn’t dare to move, and held their breath. And when the two cubs frisked passing over them leading the giant wolf, they nearly passed out.

“Mom, don’t be afraid, as long as we don’t take the initiative to mess with him, he won’t attack us. Just take him as Xiaohei of a bigger size.”

Finding it so amusing, Ling Jingxuan held the crumbling Lady Wang and explained while looking at the father and two cubs. That wolf is quite noble. He even didn’t communicate with them all the way back, let alone that he had already promised that he wouldn’t hurt his family. But even if he hadn’t promised, he would feel it was under his dignity to attack them.

“A bigger size? That’s nice to hear. He is at least quite a few sizes bigger. Oh my, I am so scared!”

Tremblingly, holding Ling Jingxuan’s hand to keep her feet, Lady Wang said with horror. When that giant wolf came her away, she thought she would have ended up in his fangs. So scary!

“Xuan, Master Xuan, it’s…”

Lady Yang who was holding together with her daughter, a whole face filled with fear, already couldn’t utter words fluently. His size and momentum were too bloodcurdling.

“Master Xuan, will it stay home with us? I’m so scared…”

The usually quick-witted Song Shuiling now nearly cried, her thin and slim body was shaking like sifting the chaff, indescribably weak and pitiful. Ling Jingxuan helplessly exchanged an eye contact with Yan Shengrui, “He is Dahei and Xiaohei’s father. Usually he’d just stay in his kennel. As for the food, they’d solve it themselves. If you are really scared, try not to go near there. After getting along for a long time, you’ll no longer feel scared.”

Except this, there was no other way. Fortunately, the kitchen was in a different direction from the kennel, and usually their activity area was around the kitchen. So it wouldn’t delay their work even if they didn’t go around the kennel. It was just that the cleaning job would a bit troublesome. He could only wait till Song Gengniu to come back and see if he could take care of it.

“OK, great…”

The three of them nodded in unison, but their voices were still stained with undisguised fear, which was only understandable. Suddenly there came such a huge beast at home, besides, the little puppies they had thought they were puppies were not real puppies. No one wouldn’t feel scared.

“I wanna go to the wolf kennel to take a look. Sister-in-law Song, Shuiling, find something to cover that boar by the pond. Let brother Zhao and others take care of it after they come back.”

Speaking of which, before they could reply, Ling Jingxuan already turned around and walked toward the wolf kennel with Yan Shengrui. Because of the sudden appearance of the black wolf, those cows in the cowshed next door mooed ceaselessly. Yan Shengrui nodded at Ling Jingxuan, then took a few steps forward, untied the rope tying to the nose of the cow and tried to pull it out, while Ling Jingxuan pushed open the moveable double-shutter door he designed himself and walked into the wolf kennel.

To his surprise, instead of resting on the tatami, the three of them were playing in the water, and the whole pool of spring water was stained red with dirt.

“Growl~”

Seeing him come in, the two cubs jumped out of the pool, gripped his trouser legs no both sides with the teeth and tried pull him to water trough aside. And the giant wolf also slowly stepped out of the pool, shook off the dirty water and then looked deeply at him with those green eyes. Ling Jingxuan was speechless. Are they taking me as their nanny?

“Do I owe you big in previous life? Let go.”

Under the silent threat of the giant wolf, Ling Jingxuan could only surrender. After grumbling something, he released the crescent spring and filled the water trough, and then rolled up the bottom of his pants and stepped into the little pool. He bent over to feel the moveable plu at the corner, then emptied the dirty water. The drainage system of the wolf kennel, the cowshed and the stable was designed very conveniently. The dirty water and faeces would directly be discharged into the manure pit behind. The liquid dung mixed with the crescent spring water was the best fertilizer, which could be used to water the fruit tree and irrigate the crops, to make them grow stronger.

After emptying the water and washing it using the well water in the wood bucket aside, Ling Jingxuan plugged it again and refilled it. All in all, it was only ten minutes’ thing. But his clothes all got wetted now. Ling Jingxuan threw the three wolf lords an ‘are you satisfied’ eye.

“Growl…”

“What the f*ck!”

Unexpectedly, the big wolf seemed to really understand him, after growling at him, those wolf eyes looked over at the kind of dirty tatami. Ling Jingxuan couldn’t help saying some swear words, only wishing to slap himself in the face. What is wrong with me? Why would I have invited home a lord?
