The next morning, the sun had just risen.
Lin Qiming quietly got up, packed his luggage and wanted to leave quietly.
Unexpectedly, just as he opened the door with his bag, a familiar figure fell in through the doorway and knocked his head against the door before he woke up.
""Ouch, it hurts so much, brother, are you awake?"
Lin Xianyin rubbed her head and exclaimed sleepily.
She was wearing a neat riding outfit and a small bag on her back, which was stuffed full, as if she was also going on a long journey. It seemed that she came to block the door after he fell asleep.
Lin Qiming had a stern face and grabbed her collar and scolded her.
"I'm not a child, your brother. You don't need to travel thousands of miles with me!"
"Besides, there is a seriously injured person at home. What will happen if you don’t help your brother and watch him die here?"
"Go back to sleep right now. Look at your dark circles. You haven't rested enough these days. Our clinic will be handed over to you before I come back. You must take good care of our property and take good care of Stationmaster Dimo!"
He took the girl back to the boudoir and watched her put the things in the bag back in place.
Lin Xianyin looked reluctant, her big watery eyes looked like she would cry at any time.
Unfortunately, her tears this time had no effect. She could only watch Lin Qiming walk out of the courtyard, jump on his horse and gallop away.
"Humph, stinky brother, bad brother, I hate you!"
She picked up the doll on the bedside and beat it fiercely before she calmed down.
Today's traffic conditions in Ghana are very poor. After leaving Edmonton, it is basically muddy on sunny days and muddy on rainy days. All the roads are dirt roads rolled out by horse-drawn carriages transporting goods.
The big white horse ridden by Lin Qiming can only run more than 100 kilometers a day and needs to rest two or three times.
Sometimes he thinks it's better to run by himself. Anyway, with the current endurance value, running more than 200 kilometers without sleep is not a big deal.
At the beginning While on the road, Lin Qiming still had the leisure to enjoy the scenery along the way.
Feeling the cool breeze on his body, looking at the green grassland full of vitality and the lush forest, listening to the singing of various birds, he felt that the whole person and nature merged together.
But this good mood disappeared on the third day. A heavy rainstorm forced him to stop traveling. He found a cave to light a bonfire to dry his wet clothes, and he had to wash the muddy white horse with his bare chest. It was much more tiring than traveling all night.
""Roar~"
In the wild mountains, a scream startled all the birds and sparrows!
Lin Qiming, who was grilling meat by the campfire, stood up and looked outside the cave with his muscles tensed.
The heavy rain was still falling on the ground like a waterfall. In this kind of weather, there would generally be no carnivores hunting. Even a wolf that had been hungry for three days would not choose to go out in the heavy rain.
"It sounds like the voice of a North American gray wolf, and the roar is full of anger, as if someone has angered them!"
He waited for a while and heard no more sound. He sat back and continued to grill meat while thinking.
The dry food he brought with him had been eaten. What he was grilling now was the hare that Lin Qiming caught in the forest. It was also very delicious if sprinkled with salt and chili powder. He kept turning the hare on the branch to ensure that the rabbit meat was evenly heated. When the fat on the surface of the rabbit meat began to secrete, it dripped onto the charcoal fire drop by drop, and the rich aroma made people salivate.
"The fire has reached the right temperature, the skin is charred and the meat is tender, it tastes the best!"
Lin Qiming couldn't help it, and took out two seasoning bottles from his bag.
He sprinkled salt and chili powder evenly on the golden roasted rabbit, and the already rich fragrance spread ten miles away, from the cave to the outside.
He just pulled off a rabbit leg and stuffed it into his mouth, and heard a series of footsteps very quickly.
"There's still a lot of restlessness in this remote place, and from the sound of it, it seems to be heading towards the cave!"
Lin Qiming finished the rabbit leg in a few bites, chewing the bones and swallowing them.
With a flick of his arms, the bone claws popped out. He stared at the entrance of the cave, silently calculating the time it would take for the other party to rush in, to ensure that no one would be left alive as soon as they showed their heads. With a whoosh, a dusty humanoid creature that looked like a savage rushed in and pounced on the roasted hare by the campfire, seemingly not noticing that there was a living person in the cave who wanted to kill him.
Lin Qiming was not polite either, and rushed forward with a sharp step to stab the newcomer with his bone claws.
Unexpectedly, the other party grabbed the roasted hare with one hand and bit it, and with the other hand, the bone claws popped out with a bang, and quickly raised it up to block the two bone claws that were stabbing.
With a few clicks of the bone claws colliding, the newcomer seemed to be out of strength and flew out.
However, even though he fell to the ground like a rolling gourd, he did not give up the roasted rabbit in his hand at all. Instead, he took advantage of the rolling action to eat the last piece of roasted rabbit meat into his mouth.
"James Howlett, is that you?"
""Doctor Lin, why are you the same as me?"
The two looked at each other and called out each other's identity in unison. The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became awkward. One party felt guilty for stealing the food of his savior, while the other party felt a little guilty knowing that his ability came from the other party.
Before Lin Qiming could speak, he heard James Howlett say with a shy smile.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Lin, I didn't know it would be you!"
"Let me put it this way. I just stole an elk from the wolf pack and left it outside the cave. When I smelled the barbecue, I forgot everything and lost my mind to come and steal your food."
"I haven't eaten cooked food for several days. Please forgive my impulsiveness!"
He scratched his head awkwardly as he spoke, like a child facing his teacher after making a mistake.
Lin Qiming looked him up and down and found that the child's clothes were torn to pieces. His small body was covered with scars, some were scratched by branches, some were bitten by mosquitoes, ants, snakes and insects, and some were scratched and bitten by fighting carnivores. There was almost no inch of skin intact.
"Alas, you have suffered, child, a hare is eaten!"
"It was clearly the adults' fault, but you, a silly boy, ran away from home. I think old Mr. Howlett still loves you. You should go back to the manor. The wilderness is not a place for you!"
He found a set of clothes from his bag, threw it to the stunned James Howlett, and walked out of the cave. After a while, he came in carrying a moose with a broken neck.
"Wow, this elk is so big, it can probably produce 120 kilograms of meat, enough for you and me to eat and have a lot left over!"
"Go outside and wash yourself with rain water, put on new clothes and then come to eat barbecue. I think I will have grilled the elk by the time you are clean."
James Howlett wiped his eyes, lowered his head and rushed into the rain, scrubbing the thick dirt on his body, his tears silently mixed in the rain.
In the past few days since he left Howlett Manor, he has been eating raw meat and drinking blood like a savage.
In the beginning, he picked wild fruits and was poisoned many times.
Later, he could skillfully distinguish whether all wild fruits were poisonous.
If it were not for his super self-healing ability, he would have died in the wilderness long ago.
Occasionally, when he met humans, he would treat them as monsters, and shoot them without saying a word, without giving them a chance to explain. Today was the first time he got the same Concern for humanity.
Lin Qiming skillfully peeled off the elk's fur, gutted it, and threw the uneaten dirty offal out of the cave.
He carried the skinned elk weighing more than 100 kilograms, rinsed it several times in the rain, washed out the blood foam in the meat, and then carried it back to the campfire, strung it with several thick branches, and roasted it over the flames.
When James Howlett washed himself clean and changed into clean but overly loose clothes, the rich aroma of barbecue filled the cave again.
He walked to the campfire and spoke in a low voice :
"Thank you, Dr. Lin. You are the only person besides my grandfather who truly cares about me!"
"I don't want to go back to the suffocating Howlett Manor and become the laughing stock of everyone there, be cursed at as a bastard behind my back, and be humiliated by people who don't like my grandfather!"
"If you allow me, I want to follow you. If you don't allow me, I will continue to live the life of a savage here. It is better than facing those infuriating rumors!"After pouring out his heart, James Howlett's eyes widened with burning eyes.
Lin Qiming thought for a while, nodded and agreed. After all, he made a lot of money from old Howlett. If he just let this child become a savage, he would feel a little bit uncomfortable in his heart. Besides, this is the future Wolverine, and it is not a loss to accept him.
"Well, kid, you have a very good idea and I can’t convince you!"
"Just follow me from now on. If you ever figure it out, just tell me and you can go back. Old Howlett's body can't hold out for too long, so you'd better figure it out as soon as possible!"
