Chapter 51 Protest is invalid
"Ow~Ow~"

Hearing the mother wolf's call, the snow wolf cubs started howling and responding eagerly.

Wolves are animals with extremely sensitive hearing. If the surrounding environment is open and the wind direction is positive, wolves can hear the howling of their companions within three kilometers.

The snow wolf of the ice field recognized the position by listening to the sound, and quickly determined the location of the wolf cubs.

Then it let out a long howl, turned around and turned into a flash of white lightning, and rushed in the direction of the wolf cub.

At this time, Ozuki was dreaming, she dreamed that she had turned into a sesame dumpling and was fighting with a group of chive dumpling.

I have to say that this dream is also very bizarre.

"Yue'er. Wake up, wake up, Yue'er, wake up", Shen Yinxing pushed Luyue.

Hazy Moon: "Yeah"

"Mm, what's the matter?" Obscure Moon was pushed awake by Shen Yinxing, and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

Obscure Moon, who was woken up in the middle of the night, has not returned to the cage, and looks a little dazed, and looks very cute.

"Shh! Listen!" Shen Yinxing raised a finger beside her mouth, signaling to Mizuki to listen carefully to the movement around her.

"Ow~Ow~"

A few loud and distant howls of wolves were scattered in the night by the long wind. The sound gradually moved from far to near, and there were more than one if you listened carefully.

As soon as he heard the vicissitudes of life, it was not from the little wolf cubs, Ozuki subconsciously made a smart move.

Oops!Could it be the parents of the cubs who came here!
The rest of the Xu family also heard the approaching wolf howls, lit torches one after another, took farm tools and walked out of the tent.

Because the camp was attacked by a group of snakes last time, since then the Xu family has built a bonfire stand in the open space at the entrance to prevent it from being attacked by wild animals again.

As soon as he heard the howling of wolves, Xu Jia, who reacted quickly, immediately got up and lit the bonfire.

Xu Jia held a shovel in one hand and led his little nephew in the other. His seven-year-old nephew also held a hatchet in his hand.

Shen Yinxing also came out of the tent with Ouyue in his arms, followed by Xu Jingyang and Xu Ajiu.

Because the tents are too simple and have no protective effect at all, it is safer for everyone to gather together.

The women and children were surrounded in the middle, and the other men of the Xu family stood at the front with farm tools and torches.

"Ow~"

Even with the flames, the howling of the wolves was still getting closer and closer. After a while, there were one after another howling wolves in all directions.

It looked like they were surrounded by wolves.

Pairs of green eyes emerged in the darkness, flickering on and off in the night, like wandering solitary lights.

The lighting range of the bonfire platform is only about two meters, and it is plunged into darkness outside.

Shen Yinxing instantly activated the barrier ability, holding the moon in one hand and holding the torch in the other.

She picked up the torch and walked two steps forward, then looked into the dark, and Obscure Moon saw two huge blue-eyed gray wolves, squatting on the rocks one meter away from them, with hook-like eyes and fierce eyes.

Adult wild wolves and wolf cubs have completely different pressures on people, as if they are two kinds of creatures.

The wolf cub is stupid and cute, if you kick it, it will only whine twice in aggrieved manner with its tail between its legs, and the fiercer wolf cub will just come and bite your trouser leg.

Cheng Lang's pupils are deeply narrowed, his eyes are sharp and cold, and his aura around him is cold and bloody. Their eyes are always staring at your neck.

Shen Yinxing threw the torch in his hand high, and the surrounding night sky was instantly illuminated. A dozen blue-eyed gray wolves were squatting three meters away from the crowd, staring intently at the people's throats, drooling from the corners of their mouths.

Obscure moon's scalp felt numb from the staring wolves, and she felt that the wolves looked at her as if they were staring at a piece of fat meat.

Night Breeze screamed, and the torch fell steadily into Shen Yinxing's hands from a high altitude.

The wolves were still afraid of the fire in their bones, and hesitated where they were.

Suddenly, the wolves began to howl at Yue Chang, their voices were high-pitched and loud, as if they were calling for something.

"Ow~"

"Ow~"

Two completely different howls of wolves erupted from above people's heads. In the night, two huge wolf shadows jumped down from the sky like lightning.

By the light of the fire, Obscure Moon saw the two uninvited guests clearly.

A gigantic giant wolf's whole body was as white as frost, its half-closed ice-blue eyes revealed a sense of coldness, its long tail drooped, but the tip of the tail was slightly upturned, exuding a frightening aura around it.

This white wolf looked like an adult ice wolf.

The other giant wolf was silver-gray all over, bigger than the white wolf, with powerful muscles full of explosive power, and a fierce look in its eyes.

This couple should be the wolf couple, the parents of the five cubs.

As soon as the two giant wolves appeared on the stage, the pack of wolves began to shrink the encirclement, gradually approaching the crowd, and then began to howl unceasingly.

In the tent, the basket of wolf cubs also howled in response.

Unlike the brainless snake pack, the wolf pack has extremely strong combat effectiveness, has a sense of teamwork, and knows how to use various tactics to deal with the enemy under the leadership of the head wolf.

Wild wolves have a strong desire for revenge, and if they fight against wolves in the suburbs, I'm afraid there won't be any good results.

So everyone stood still and did not dare to act rashly.

"Aniang, they should be looking for the little wolf cubs." Misty Moon tugged at Shen Yinxing's sleeve: "We return the wolf cubs to them, and they should have left,"

Obscure Moon felt a little bit reluctant, she had already named those furries, and regarded them as part of the family.

But people's parents have come to the door, so it is impossible for us to say that the child will not be returned.

And these little guys will definitely be happier with their parents.

Shen Yinxing nodded, agreeing with Ozuyue's opinion.

She reached out to lift aside the tent, and then lifted out the basket containing the wolf cubs.

As soon as the five howling little wolf cubs appeared, the voices of the pack changed, becoming excited and eager.

The two giant wolves stared at Shen Yinxing's every move intently, for fear that she would suddenly hurt her child.

Shen Yinxing stepped forward and placed the bamboo basket containing the wolf cubs on the open space.

The wolf couple were a little afraid of Shen Yinxing's aura, and waited for her to retreat before they surrounded the bamboo basket.

The ice wolf has also been raised in captivity, so it is extremely humane. It only needs to look into the basket to know that the children are well taken care of.

The old man who stole its wolf cub while it was out looking for food, has been torn to pieces by it.

It glanced at Shen Yinxing who had retreated into the distance, then stepped forward and took the basket away.

"Ow~"

The giant silver-gray wolf next to him let out another long howl, and the surrounding pack of wolves dispersed in an instant.

Before the wolf couple left, they turned around and took a deep look at them.

If the wolf turns its head back, it will either repay favor or revenge.

Ozuki thought to herself, hoping that this good relationship will eventually bear good fruit.

It wasn't until the figures of the wolf couple disappeared into the night that the Xu family was completely relieved.

Obscure Moon drooped her little head, it's just a pity that she and those five little guys had nothing to do with each other after all.

Seeing Miyue's listless look, Xu Jingyang couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward to comfort her: "Oh, if it's gone, it'll be gone, daddy will buy you a bunch of puppies in the last episode tomorrow, you can play with them however you want .”

"Hmm..." Ozuki didn't speak, feeling a little empty in her heart.

Seeing the wolves dispersed, the members of the Xu family also breathed a sigh of relief, luckily it was just a false alarm.

Thinking that there is still work to be done tomorrow, they all went back to the tent and continued to sleep.

But tonight, Gongsun Li couldn't sleep no matter what.

"Patriarch, I have found out that the person who sold the salt in the bamboo tube was the Xu family who offended you on the boat," the butler cupped his hands.

When Gongsun Li heard this, he was furious: "What? Didn't I tell you to deal with them a long time ago?"

Faced with the questioning, the big butler was sweating coldly, and touched the cold sweat on his forehead: "Go home, the villain did exactly what you said, but I didn't expect that the family escaped by chance, and they have military registrations. , we don’t know it too well.”

"Trash! What a fucking trash!"

Gongsun Li was so angry that he kicked the butler in the heart, causing the butler to vomit blood repeatedly.

"Then where did their salt come from?"

"Go home, they are the salt soil dug in the saline-alkali land. The old farmers in the next village saw it with their own eyes."

Seeing the chief butler being beaten, the second butler lowered his head and spoke more cautiously.

"Earth salt? This is impossible!" Gongsun roared: "The quality of earth salt is extremely poor, and the extracted salt is poisonous. How is this possible!"

He is also a big man in the salt industry, and he knows a thing or two about the folks who use wall root soil to boil small salt in some places, but that kind of salt has many impurities and is poisonous, so it is not edible at all.

The second steward stepped forward and said, "Patriarch, we brought back that old farmer, do you want to summon him?"

When Gongsun Li heard this, he immediately waved his sleeves: "Bring it up!"

The person who was brought up was Lao Mengtou who lived with him in Erlitun. He had seen Xu's family sweep salt and soil from the fields more than once.

And once he overheard them cooking salt in the tent, but he didn't hear any specific steps that time.

Under the heavy reward, Lao Mengtou told what he had seen and heard, and Gongsun Li's face changed constantly when he heard it.

Gongsun Limeng took a sip of cold tea, unexpectedly someone could extract white salt from the soil, and the white salt produced was even better than his sea salt.

Hmph, at the beginning the Holy Majesty meant that the salt in Hebei would be contracted by my Gongsun family, but now the members of the Xu family don't know the heights of heaven and earth, and dare to interfere with the interests of my Gongsun family, they really deserve to die!
Gongsun Limu showed murderous intentions, he must get the method of making salt, and the Holy Majesty should not know about this matter first, if the Holy Majesty knows the method of making salt, he will lose one point of bargaining chips in his hand, and I am afraid It will shake the position of the Gongsun family.

"Listen, you two, I don't care what method you use, I will know how to make this soil salt within three days, otherwise you will die in three days!"

"No!" The two butlers responded tremblingly.

Gongsun Li thought about it, Da Yuan has not perfected relevant laws yet, and the matter of making local salt by the Xu family may not be easy to convict.

This matter should be negotiated with the uncle quickly, let the uncle and the officials move around more, let them promulgate the relevant laws as soon as possible, and when the laws come out, it will be the death of the Xu family.

Gongsun Li then ordered to the two butlers: "Tomorrow, you find a group of people to go to Xuji Salt Shop to make trouble, and don't make their reputation worse."

"promise!"

Touching money is like killing parents, Gongsun Li looked at the gradually whitening sky outside the courtyard, his face was full of sternness.

Salt is something that people like you cannot move.

……

The first wisp of smoke in the suburbs of Changchun was lit by the widow Seventh Aunt.

At this time, she was sitting by the open-air stove boiling water, with a clump of grass covered with dew beside her feet, and she was carrying Xu Xiaobao who was sleeping soundly on her back.

There is no labor force in her family, and her two children are young, so she can't help much with boiling salt, and she doesn't feel at ease taking three liang of silver for nothing, so she gets up early every day to cook three meals a day for everyone.

Fortunately, Seventh Aunt's culinary skills are very popular, and Ozuki always praised her skills as comparable to Michelin three-star chefs.

Yesterday she heard Ozuki say what dumplings she wanted to eat, and after asking how to make them, she began to figure out how to make dumplings.

Making dough, chopping dumpling stuffing, making dumplings, a set of actions are done in one go.

After hearing Ozuki say how to do it once, she knew what to do.

The shepherd's purse and meat dumplings on the chopping board are all thin-skinned and big-filled. When the steaming pot lid is lifted, the iron pot is bubbling.

After the dumplings were put into the pot, cover the pot and simmer for a few minutes, and the aroma wafted out. Sprinkle a handful of fragrant turnips and wild garlic before serving, and the delicious smell directly woke up Ozuki from her sleep.

"It smells so good..."

Obscure moon smelled the aroma of dumplings, and got up straight from the bed.

"Yue'er woke up? Come and eat hot, delicious dumplings." Seventh Aunt saw Obscure Moon get up, and quickly waved to her.

Ozuki didn't expect that she just talked about how to make dumplings yesterday, but Aunt Seven made the dumplings today.

The shepherd's purse and meat dumplings in the bowl have thin skin and big filling, and the juice flows out when you bite into it.

The meat filling of the dumplings is three-point fat and seven-point thin, paired with fragrant and refreshing shepherd's purse, it tastes fragrant but not greasy, and it is endless aftertaste.

"Seventh Aunt's craftsmanship!" Obscure Moon praised while stuffing dumplings into her mouth.

Seeing Ozuki eating happily, Seventh Aunt was also happy, she rubbed the flour on her hands: "If it tastes good, eat more..."

The rest of the Xu family also praised the freshness of dumplings.

Xu Jingyang was also full of praise after eating the dumplings: "This is what people eat. It's not like a certain person. Dogs don't even eat the food they make."

Hearing this, Shen Yinxing cast a sideways glance at Xu Jingyang: "Huh? Itchy skin? I'll let you spit out the dumplings now and then let you eat them. Do you believe it or not?"

Hearing Shen Yinxing's harsh words, Xu Jingyang shrank his head, then curled his lips and dared not speak again.

Obscure moon covered her face, Father, what are you doing?Are you just looking for trouble?I can't be beaten, I can't be provoked, and I still owe my mouth every day...

"Father, if you talk like this, I'm afraid you will be beaten to death by Aunt sooner or later." Miyue's face was black.

"Emperor, don't worry, I have dragon energy to protect my body, so I won't die." Xu Jingyang rubbed his nose, looking nonchalant.

Obscure moon squints, then father, you can continue to do it.

"Hmph, today I want my mother to accompany me to sell salt, Dad, you work at home for me! You haven't worked for a long time, and it's always my mother who is taking care of you!" Stare round.

"No, I protest!"

"Protest is ineffective!"

 Hazy Moon: Yue'er is here to wish everyone a happy new year, wishing everyone a happy new year, everything will be successful, Gong Xi Fa Cai, here are the tickets! !
