Chapter 328 -326: Mama Bear’s Gallant Assistance_3
They took some distant photos and marked the location on the map before planning to leave.
Unfortunately, they didn’t get very far before they ran into a pack of wolves.
There was a sizable pack, likely more than twenty wolves.
The pack tracked them for three days, and despite their best efforts, they couldn’t drive the wolves away. They dared not sleep too soundly at night, for fear that the wolves might overwhelm them. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Because of the wolf pack, compounded by some vehicle issues, they decided to stay by a small lake overnight to repair the vehicle and replenish their freshwater supply.
Unexpectedly, the wolves launched an attack that night.
“At that time, we didn’t have many weapons to defend ourselves; we even used torches to hit the wolves. We also lost two sleeping bags.”
In the chaos, they hastily left, driving through the night with a malfunctioning navigation system, losing their direction and incredibly running into a group of resting wild yaks.
Feeling threatened, the yaks charged directly at the convoy.
They didn’t dare slow down or take time to discern their direction, and under the impact of the yak herd, veered off the correct road.
By dawn, after the yaks had given up the chase, they realized they were lost, but couldn’t stop to refuel because the fuel was insufficient and they were afraid to stop.
The pack of wolves and other carnivores had not given up and continued to trail them.
“Fortunately, the captain remembered there was a cabin here, so we drove straight here. We planned to outwait the wolf pack here, refuel, and then we could head back. But instead of leaving, another pack joined the siege.”
“How about those three bears? How did they end up confronting the wolf pack?”
“Those three bears were helping us.”
Speaking of the three bears, the expressions of the team members were also puzzled.
They had encountered these three bears on the road to the cabin.
At that time, they thought they were doomed. In the grasslands, with bears in front and wolves behind, it seemed like a certain deadly end.
However, during their most critical moment, the three bears unexpectedly made a move against the wolves, which allowed them a chance to breathe and hide in the cabin.
The mountain patrol team member was about to continue speaking when the young man responsible for the drone in the rescue team suddenly shouted.
“Dr. Chen, take a look, the little bear seems to have moved.”
Chen Ying quickly transferred the satiated little bear from her arms into the mother bear’s embrace and then rushed over, scooping up the bear cub along with the cloth it was wrapped in.
After a careful check, indeed, the heartbeat of the little cub could be felt.
The little guy had probably been in a feigned death state, managing to deceive even its own mother.
“That’s good; he’s not dead,” Chen Ying quickly administered an injection to stabilize the cub’s condition and mixed a bottle of formula, trying to let it suckle and swallow on its own.
At first, the little cub showed almost no swallowing movement, but as the nipple overflowed with milk into its mouth, seemingly recognizing the familiar taste, the cub made an effort to chomp down.
The mountain patrol team members watched tensely as Chen Ying treated the little cub, only relaxing once it began to suckle from the bottle.
“This little cub is quite impressive; it fought off those fierce wolves with its mother.”
The other cub was weaker and the first to be injured. The team members took it inside while they were dodging.
Chen Ying finally had the opportunity to explain.
“During the summer, we spent some time with these three bears near Zhuonai Lake. We had rescued the bear cub, and its mother came to find it. They stayed until the Tibetan antelopes migrated before splitting up.”
The mountain patrol team members displayed expressions of sudden realization.
“No wonder, I thought it was odd how brown bears could become friendly with humans and even help fight off a wolf pack.”
Grateful and protective, this kind of bear behavior was unheard of for them, yet it had realistically provided them aid.
The specific details were not further inquired by the rescue team members; the leaders would surely ask for a thorough recount upon their return. The immediate priority was to ensure the rescued team members were well-fed, rested, and then to leave this place.
After ensuring the little bear had revived slightly, Chen Ying handed it back to its mother to care for and went outside to call Jinya and Er Niu.
Upon hearing Chen Ying’s voice, Jinya and Er Niu came running directly.
The fierce Lynx didn’t move, glancing at Chen Ying before continuing to eat—viciously tearing into the wolf’s carcass.
The two bear cubs definitely needed to be taken back for a check-up; they took up the animal cages prepared in the vehicle.
Jinya and Er Niu could sit in the back seat of the vehicle, but how to transport Mama Bear was a big problem.
The vehicles they had driven here did not have truck beds, and fitting Mama Bear would require at least a transshipment cage.
“We can walk with you,” reasoned Jinya, rubbing Er Niu’s head, “Er Niu and I can take turns walking with Big Bear, and if you drive slowly, we can keep up.”
That was indeed a plan.
Brown bears are not slow and have good endurance; mainly, they can communicate, which was quite a strength.
Chen Ying examined the two bear cubs; they were essentially unharmed, mainly shaken and hungry, leaving them a bit weakened.
Moreover, Big Zai had joined its mother in fighting off the wolves and had not been bitten to death or injured, which was incredibly lucky.
In this situation, special assistance wasn’t necessary; just allowing them to eat well and rest was enough for them to recover after a time.
Chen Ying’s team couldn’t linger in the grasslands for too long, and with many wolves dead here, once humans departed, it was possible the wolf pack might return for revenge, and whether Mama Bear alone could withstand them was uncertain.
Thus, they could only let Mama Bear follow them out.
After confirming there were no major issues with the mountain patrol team, Chen Ying suggested leaving as soon as possible.
Outside, the scattered wolf pack seemed to be regrouping again, and not in small numbers.
Trapped for several days, the team members were eager to return and reunite with their families.
They quickly packed up, switched drivers, and commenced their journey in the mountain patrol’s two vehicles, with Jinya and Er Niu accompanying Mama Bear beside the convoy across the grassland.
