"Don't be afraid..." A Lin put down the backpack by mistake and reached out tremblingly to touch the arrow. As soon as her fingertips touched the arrow shaft, the giant wolf suddenly rose up, and its sharp claws scraped across her cheek, leaving five claw marks on the bark of the tree that were deep enough to show the bones. A Lin fell to the ground, her heart almost beating out of her chest, but she found that the giant wolf did not continue to attack, but gently rubbed the back of her hand with its head, with pleading in its eyes.
"Are you asking me to save you?" A Lin gritted her teeth and took out the hemostatic herbs from her backpack. She did not dare to look directly into the eyes of the giant wolf, so she hurriedly crushed herbs and applied them to the wound, and then tore off her skirt to wrap around the arrow wound. The giant wolf lay quietly, the warm blood soaked into her skirt, and the air was filled with a sickening sweetness.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves and the glow of torches were heard in the distance. A Lin's heart tightened. She heard from the old people that the iron ore owners outside the mountains were cutting down the forest and sent hunters to kill the "evil beasts" in the forest. The giant wolf seemed to be aware of the danger and struggled to get up, but fell down again due to excessive blood loss.
"It's too late..." A Lin looked around and found a hidden cave not far away. She used all her strength to drag the giant wolf into the cave. Although the giant wolf was extremely weak, he still tried his best to keep his body as light as possible to avoid crushing her. Outside the cave, the shouts of the hunters were getting closer and closer: "The white wolf ran this way! The owner of the iron mine said that whoever hunts it will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!"
