Shi Wen, "So it wasn't being naughty or going out to meet a she-wolf; it discovered that I liked Dolan Sheep but couldn't get them, so it went to great lengths to get me sheep?"

"Judging from its aggrieved expression, it's quite possible, though we can't rule out the possibility that it's just acting." Yan Kexing stared at the Wolf King. "Since we can't communicate with it effectively, we can only try to think positively."

Shi Wen, facing the Wolf King, was deeply moved. "If that's really the case, this guy is too considerate."

Yan Kexing: "It must be extraordinary for it to become the Wolf King."

The Wolf King may not have fully understood what they were talking about, but he keenly sensed the change in their attitude.

It immediately wagged its fluffy tail and nuzzled against Shi Wen affectionately, whimpering.

Heiwa, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and shouted, "Woof woof woof!"

The Wolf King ignored everything, rubbing its head Shi Wen and whining sweetly, "Waaah!"

Shi Wen was so stuck that he couldn't move his legs at all, so he looked up and asked Yan Kexing for help.

Yan Kexing said, "It's not easy for it to come back, let it linger for a while, I'll go make it some dog food."

Shi Wen, "... How come you spoil it even more than I do?!"

Chapter 78

The Wolf King had been gone for so long; his fur had become duller, and he had lost weight.

Yan Kexing made dog food, and the dog immediately began to wolf it down, making a sound comparable to a pig.

Shi Wen originally wanted to scold it, but seeing how hungry it was, he could only pet it and tell it to eat slowly.

The Wolf King doesn't guard its food; it just eats voraciously and can be touched however Shi Wen.

Once it has eaten and drunk its fill and is drowsy, check its body Shi Wen.

It wasn't injured, just a bit thinner. Judging from its testicles, it must have already gone out to mate.

As expected of the Wolf King, he can mate and catch sheep at the same time.

After checking on Shi Wen, Shi Wen rubbed its fluffy head and let it sleep. Then he called Zhou Hongzhong to talk about the Siberian goat.

Zhou Hongzhong was astonished. "How come your wolf is so powerful? It can even catch a ibex?"

Shi Wen, "We're wondering about that too. Captain Zhou, when do you have time to come and take the ibex away? We can't keep them here anymore."

Although grateful for the Wolf King's kindness, the ibex was different from the Wolf King; it was uninjured and had a pack, Shi Wen could not possibly adopt it.

Otherwise, after all the hard work of raising them, is it better to feed them well or not?

Zhou Hongzhong said, "Let's go tomorrow, it's too late today. Can you take it in for a day first?"

Shi Wen, "No problem, then come early tomorrow."

Zhou Hongzhong: "Don't worry, we'll definitely be here first thing tomorrow morning."

Although the ibex captured by the Wolf King was just a lamb, Shi Wen was unsure whether it was infected with parasites or carried germs, so he could only keep it far away in the backyard.

The two Hu Zai saw the ibex and eagerly stretched out their paws to pounce.

Strictly speaking, ibex are also on their diet, Shi Wen didn't want to discourage their hunting enthusiasm, so he had to take the ibex out and put them in a corner far away from the cattle.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan Shi was also interested in ibex and even went out to see them.

The little horse's ears were perked up, and it looked so cute peeking around.

Shi Wen couldn't resist giving the little horse a stroke, and it immediately ran away.

The ibex, frightened by the repeated visits from Shi Wen's animals, hid in a corner of the cowshed like quails, too afraid to even peek out and barely eat any hay.

Only Shi Wen took in the salt bricks would the little guy be unable to resist the temptation, and taking advantage of the absence of other livestock, he would quickly come out and lick them.

Salt is just too tempting for these little guys.

Shi Wen watched with pity as the little guy diligently licked the salt block, then took out his phone and snapped a picture.

I don't know how this little guy got snatched away by the Wolf King. Logically speaking, it's not an easy thing for a cub in the pack to be snatched away.

The news that a ibex had come to the Shi Wen spread quickly.

Before the ibex were taken away, Fu Meng and his group excitedly came to visit and inquire about the possibility of raising them.

Old Man Ma looked at the Siberian ibex and said, "When we were young, these things were plentiful; you could see them everywhere. I never thought they'd become such a rare sight now."

Shi Wen laughed and said, "It's alright. They've been downgraded from Class I to Class II protected animals, so their numbers aren't that rare anymore."

Fu Meng: "This ibex is really beautiful, quite different from the goats raised by humans. I heard that your Wolf King brought it back thinking it was Dolan Sheep?"

Shi Wen asked in bewilderment, "How did you know that?"

Fu Meng: "I ran into those two young men who often come to your ranch this morning when I went out. That's what they said."

Gong Jiang and Lin Chengqian, Shi Wen a moment's thought, nodded in understanding. "Perhaps the wolf can't distinguish between sheep and just picked one up randomly. Or perhaps it didn't mean anything by it, and we humans misunderstood."

Fu Meng laughed, "Wolves are the most cunning; maybe that's what it meant, you just don't dare to believe it."

Shi Wen, "That's also possible."

Fu Meng: "But are you really going to raise Dolan Sheep?"

Shi Wen: "I'd like to raise two ewes. What's up? Do you have any recommendations?"

"There really is," Fu Meng said. "I have a friend who raises Dolan Sheep, but he wants to quit now. He still has three ewes and two lambs. If you're interested, I can take you over to see them."

Shi Wen, "Sure, if the Dolan Sheep there is to my liking, I won't need to buy it anywhere else."

Fu Meng made an agreement with Shi Wen in a few words.

While they were talking, Zhou Hongzhong arrived with his men.

Upon seeing Shi Wen, Zhou Hongzhong's first words were, "I wouldn't be surprised if any animals appeared in your house now."

Shi Wen sincerely said, "To be honest, I'm quite accepting of whatever animals appear in my house these days."

Everyone went back to the cattle pen to check on the Siberian goats.
