Chapter 1200: Hei Yun the Hunting Dog
"What was that? A person?"
Chen Yang stood at the village entrance, puzzled for a moment, then decided to give chase and see what it really was.
But before he could make a move, the pack of dogs in the field suddenly turned around and ran back, not continuing the chase.
No one knew why.
Seeing this, Chen Yang was even more confused, not understanding what was up with Wangcai.
He waited a moment at the village entrance, and soon Wangcai returned with the pack.
"Wangcai, what are you doing out here so late?" Chen Yang asked immediately upon seeing Wangcai.
Wangcai was at the front, followed by a panting pack of dogs.
Woof woof!
Wangcai walked up to Chen Yang and barked twice, as if trying to say something.
But Chen Yang couldn't understand what it meant.
"Was that a person or an animal in the field earlier?" Knowing that Wangcai's expression was hard to understand, Chen Yang tried asking.
Wangcai didn't respond directly but instead barked towards the pack behind it.
Then, a big yellow dog came out from the group.
The big yellow dog walked up to Chen Yang and spat out a piece of torn fabric.
Chen Yang immediately recognized it as material from human clothing.
So, it seemed that the one in the field earlier was definitely a person, not an animal.
"Well done, keep up this spirit in the future, and you all won't be mistreated." Once he confirmed it was a person, Chen Yang immediately praised Wangcai.
Wangcai loved this kind of praise; hearing it, it raised its head proudly and was very excited.
After jumping around the village entrance for a bit, the pack of dogs dispersed.
A few headed towards the fields, seeming to guard Chen Yang's property.
Seeing this, Chen Yang couldn't help but praise Wangcai in his mind.
When it first arrived, Chen Yang always felt it was unreliable.
But now it seemed quite useful.
The dogs in Liuhe Village were all tamed by this fellow, and its usefulness might grow even further in the future.
With the pack gone, Chen Yang glanced in the direction of Xiashan Village.
He pondered for a while before turning around and heading back to the clinic with Wangcai.
...
Early the next morning.
Chen Yang had just gotten up and finished breakfast at home when Hei Pi and his security team arrived.
Seeing Hei Pi and his crew come over suddenly, Chen Yang thought there was some issue in the mountain due to such a large gathering.
But unexpectedly, Hei Pi had come to deliver a dog.
He took Chen Yang's words from the night before seriously!
"Yang Zi, this hunting dog is from the neighboring town, with strong genetics. If paired with Wangcai, it would surely become an outstanding hunting dog." Hei Pi stood in front of Chen Yang, holding a jet-black wolfdog, and spoke earnestly.
Chen Yang looked at the black wolfdog, feeling amused.
He had only agreed to the pairing to comfort Hei Pi, not expecting him to actually go far to bring an excellent hunting dog over.
Though Chen Yang wasn't well-versed in hunting or hunting dogs.
But judging by the black wolfdog's physique and vitality, he could tell it had good genes indeed.
"Uh... the genes are good, but for a pairing, it depends on whether they fancy each other. If it works out, I'll pair them myself." Chen Yang could only agree.
Hearing this, Hei Pi's expression lit up with excitement.
"Haha, that's enough for me." Hei Pi laughed joyfully and, after saying a few more words to Chen Yang, led the black wolfdog to the backyard with Chen Yang.
At that moment, Wangcai had just gotten up in the backyard.
It was wagging its tail, waiting for Chen Yang to get it some bodybuilding elixir.
Seeing Chen Yang come out of the house, it immediately ran over with a tongue out.
Looking expectantly at Chen Yang by his feet.
Knowing what it wanted, Chen Yang tossed two bodybuilding elixirs over without hesitation.
Wangcai jumped up and gobbled them up at once.
After eating, it immediately turned around and darted back to its den, with no other movement.
It didn't even glance at Hei Pi and his people or the black hunting dog.
Seeing this, Hei Pi was stunned.
"Uh... what did you just give Wangcai?" Hei Pi stared blankly at Chen Yang.
"Nothing, just some digestive medicine." Chen Yang smiled.
Hearing this, Hei Pi said 'oh' and dropped the subject, switching back to discussing the pairing.
Chen Yang understood Hei Pi's desire to have Wangcai come out of the den and see if they could take to each other.
But he also knew Wangcai's thoughts well; after taking the bodybuilding elixir, it had no desire to come out.
It was busy digesting the elixir's effects.
"How about this, pairing isn't instant. Why not leave the dog with me, and you can come check on it anytime. If they hit it off, you can take it back then." Chen Yang suggested to Hei Pi.
Hei Pi thought this over briefly and eventually nodded in agreement.
"You're right, so I'll leave 'Hei Yun' in your care. Let me know if anything happens." Hei Pi decisively gave the leash to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang accepted it with a smile, "Alright, you go ahead and get busy."
"Okay."
Hei Pi nodded and then left with his team, returning to work.
Chen Yang walked them to the door, watched them leave, and then returned to the backyard.
He had been too busy conversing with Hei Pi to properly observe the hunting dog he brought.
Back in the backyard, Chen Yang finally got a good look at Hei Yun.
Hei Yun was the same breed as Wangcai, both wolfdogs.
In terms of appearance and physique, Hei Yun was even more handsome than Wangcai.
Its glossy black fur was like black silk; just looking at it felt pleasant.
"Well, if it pairs with Wangcai, it might produce something exceptional."
Chen Yang gave Hei Yun a thorough look over, feeling quite satisfied.
"Hei Yun."
Chen Yang stepped forward and tentatively called out to Hei Yun, who was getting familiar with its surroundings.
Upon hearing Chen Yang's call, Hei Yun looked over curiously.
After a few seconds, it walked over to him.
Woof woof.
Once by his feet, it barked twice.
This surprised Chen Yang slightly.
When he first saw Hei Yun, he thought it would be a fierce dog, not easy to approach.
But unexpectedly, it was very friendly, being calm and approachable right on the first meeting.
Once he realized, Chen Yang reached out to pet it; not only did it not resist, but it really enjoyed Chen Yang's touch.
"Hey, you're much better than Wangcai."
Seeing Hei Yun being so tame, Chen Yang couldn't help but recall his first encounter with Wangcai.
Back then, Wangcai pretended to be fierce and intimidating upon their first meeting.
Woof woof!
Perhaps Wangcai in its den heard Chen Yang talking about it or smelled Hei Yun's scent.
It actually came out of the den.
Usually, after taking bodybuilding elixirs, it wouldn't come out for hours; today was an exception.
