731: Chapter 729: Roasted Wolf Leg 731: Chapter 729: Roasted Wolf Leg “Hehe, this guy, he’s got so pride in him,” Chen Yang chuckled and shook his head as he noticed the powerful eagle.
Then he turned to Xia Qianqian: “Qianqian, you should go into the cave first.
It’s windy outside; don’t catch a cold.
I’ll deal with this wild wolf and then cook you sothing delicious.”
“Okay, Uncle Chen Yang.”
As soon as Xia Qianqian heard that there was tasty food, she obediently took the powerful eagle with her and entered the cave.
Chen Yang, on the other hand, was outside, using the rainwater to process the wolf’s carcass.
The wolf was quite large, a full-grown adult.
With its at weighing around fifty pounds, he knew he and Xia Qianqian couldn’t finish it all, so he only took one of its hind legs and planned to take the rest back when the rain stopped.
After removing the wolf’s leg, Chen Yang wasn’t in a hurry to clean up the rest.
He left the remaining carcass at the entrance of the cave, took the leg inside, skewered it on a wooden stick, and started roasting it over the fire.
Seeing that she couldn’t be of much help, Xia Qianqian started grooming the powerful eagle’s feathers instead.
With the rain pouring outside, the eagle had been shuttling around for a while, and its feathers were almost completely soaked.
This was also why Chen Yang had been surprised when he saw it.
If it were any other day, he wouldn’t think much of the powerful eagle catching a wolf.
But today was different, the eagle’s feathers were thoroughly wet, which would make it difficult for an ordinary bird to take off, let alone fly.
Yet the powerful eagle not only flew as usual but had also managed to catch and carry such a large wolf.
How strong must it be?
“This guy, he’s getting more terrifying by the day.”
Chen Yang could feel that there was sothing abnormal about the eagle’s strength.
Still uncertain, he quietly decided in his heart that if there was ti, he would test the powerful eagle’s strength to see how great it actually was.
The heavy rain continued outside, but it was very peaceful inside the cave.
There was not only the warmth from the firelight but also the rich aroma of at.
Although their clothes were still not dry, the temptation of delicious food made them care less about that.
Seeing that the at was about done, Chen Yang first tore off a piece to taste for himself.
After making sure there were no problems, he then handed so to Xia Qianqian.
Xia Qianqian didn’t hold back when she saw the large piece of wolf leg handed to her; she took it and began to wolf it down.
It might have been because it was fresh, or perhaps she was just hungry.
Xia Qianqian was eating deliciously, her mouth slick with grease.
Seeing her devouring it, Chen Yang was genuinely worried that the girl would finish it all: “Leave so for , I haven’t eaten yet!”
Upon hearing this, Xia Qianqian imdiately stopped.
With a laugh, she passed the wolf leg back to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang gave her a mock stern look, took it back, and took a couple of bites from another angle.
That’s how the two of them polished off the wolf leg completely.
After they had finished eating, the heavy rain outside still showed no sign of stopping.
Xia Qianqian, ward by the fire, had unknowingly fallen asleep holding the powerful eagle.
She must feel safe with Chen Yang around, otherwise, why would she fall asleep in this cave?
“It’s really strange, this rain.
Normally, it should have stopped by now,” Chen Yang stood at the cave entrance, looking at the drizzling rain outside, beginning to feel concerned.
There weren’t many dry branches in the cave.
What if the rain didn’t stop all day?
What then?
They couldn’t just spend the night in the dark in the cave, right?
Although he didn’t want to, if that was the case, there was no other choice.
In the blink of an eye, a few hours had passed.
Seeing that it was getting dark and the rain had lessened slightly, Chen Yang quickly woke up the soundly sleeping Xia Qianqian.
This girl had been sleeping soundly from two in the afternoon until after five.
When Chen Yang woke her up, she was still groggy and didn’t quite understand what she was supposed to do.
“Qianqian, it’s getting late, and the rain has lightened up quite a bit outside.
Let’s hurry down the mountain, otherwise, we might be too late.” Chen Yang said.
“Mm, okay.” Xia Qianqian instantly beca alert, nodded her head, and stood up to go and pack up her silk stockings and coat that were drying on the wooden rack.
Chen Yang went to the cave entrance to pick up the wolf that hadn’t yet been dealt with, planning to take it back with him.
Once both of them were ready, they ran out of the cave with Chen Yang and started making their way back to the village.
Because of the torrential rain, the mountain paths were extrely muddy.
If Chen Yang was alone, he could walk as if on level ground.
But with Xia Qianqian, it was different; they had to slow down considerably to avoid any unnecessary accidents.
In this way, the two of them struggled to descend the mountain.
By the ti they made it back to Willow River Village, the sky was already completely dark.
Just as they entered the house, Chen Yang received a call from Yang Caiyun.
Chen Yang knew she was looking for Xia Qianqian, so he passed the phone to Xia Qianqian.
Seeing that it was Yang Caiyun who called, Xia Qianqian also knew what it was about, so she imdiately answered.
“Mom, I’m with Uncle Chen Yang, what’s up?”
Upon connecting the call, Xia Qianqian brought up Chen Yang right away.
Chen Yang, hearing this, knew exactly what Xia Qianqian was up to: she was using him to block Yang Caiyun’s mouth.
And it worked.
When Yang Caiyun heard that she had been with Chen Yang the whole ti, she didn’t scold Xia Qianqian, just asked about what they did today and whether she would return ho to sleep tonight.
Xia Qianqian roughly explained what had happened on the mountain, then said she wasn’t going to sleep at ho tonight.
She wanted to stay overnight at Chen Yang’s house and go back in the morning.
Yang Caiyun didn’t say much about it; how could she not trust Chen Yang?
After a few words of caution, she hung up the call.
“You’re sleeping at my house again, huh?
Will you continue to sleep in the sickroom?
My house doesn’t have any spare beds other than that.” Chen Yang said with a laugh right after hanging up.
Upon hearing this, Xia Qianqian imdiately put on a pitiful look and coquettishly pouted at Chen Yang.
“Uncle Chen Yang…
do you really have the heart to let sleep on a sickbed?” she said, batting her eyelids at Chen Yang.
Xia Qianqian’s coquettish behavior isn’t the cute type but leans towards a more mature and enchanting vibe.
It’s the type that, well, makes others involuntarily pitch a small tent when she softens up.
How could Chen Yang resist that?
Wasn’t this tempting him to commit a cri?
Hurriedly, he waved his hands, interrupting the train of wild thoughts.
“Alright, alright, you’ll sleep in my bed tonight, and I’ll sleep in the sickbed.”
“Hehe, thank you Uncle Chen Yang.”
Xia Qianqian laughed triumphantly and then went to the backyard, carrying Brother Sculpture with her.
For so reason, Xia Qianqian got along strangely well with Brother Sculpture.
She held Brother Sculpture in her arms as if hugging an old hen, and Brother Sculpture didn’t resist at all.
This puzzled Chen Yang greatly; even he would probably have trouble doing the sa, yet Xia Qianqian could do it so naturally.
“Could it be because she can understand what Brother Sculpture is saying?”
Chen Yang was increasingly convinced that Xia Qianqian was sowhat magical.
It felt as though Xia Qianqian was not an ordinary person, as if she possessed so formidable ability that just hadn’t been developed.
Of course, this was just a feeling, and he wasn’t certain yet.
“Find an opportunity to ask Old Master Wang; maybe he knows sothing.”
Chen Yang shrugged off his reverie, sniffled, and went to the backyard as well.
He prepared to clean up the wolf’s carcass thoroughly since it was also ti for dinner, after all, it was getting late.
