1940s: I supported my wife and sister-in-law by hunting.

But before he could react, Liu Chuncao came up and started to undo his belt.

"No, what are you doing? If my wife finds out, the two of them will gang up on me and give me a piece of their mind."

Chen Gaoshan quickly pressed down on the rough, reddened hands, swallowed hard, and thought Chuncao was quite attractive. He hadn't noticed before, but now that he was closer, he could smell a milky fragrance.

"I just want to find someone to rely on. Brother Gaoshan, you're the only one I've chosen in our village. As long as you can give me food, give my daughter food, I'll do anything you ask. Really, don't worry. Ever since your brother Gouzi died, no one has been close to me."

Good heavens, what has this turned into?

This is basically like going into someone's yard to pick their melons and making their child miss their mother.

"Chuncao, I'm a respectable person, what kind of thinking you have of me?"

"Brother Gaoshan, are you incapable, or is there something wrong with you? I know how to cure illnesses, let me take a look."

Chen Gaoshan was now in a state of great anxiety because of her.

"What I hate most is being provoked. If you don't stop, don't blame me for being impolite."

Chuncao turned around and said directly, "I'm already in dire straits, how could I be afraid of you? As long as you can help me out from time to time, I can do whatever you want, even if your wife doesn't want to.

What is the purpose of a man's life? Isn't it to establish a heart for young girls, to provide a life for young women, to continue the warmth of a wife, and to bring new life to a widow?

Now that his sister-in-law Chuncao, who needs help, is right in front of him, he feels bad if he doesn't help her.

He pulled the young woman who was flirting with him into his arms, held her head, and kissed her fiercely.

After a while, Chen Gaoshan suddenly remembered, "Damn it, there's still that blind old woman eavesdropping. If she suddenly comes over, I'll be trembling with fear."

"Chuncao, no, really, your mother-in-law is still here."

Liu Chuncao's body went limp from his kisses, her legs ached, and she leaned against him, clutching his shirt.

"It's alright, she's deaf, she can't hear. Brother Gao, you're managing two households by yourself, how can you not be able to handle it? Looks like even two people can't feed you enough, you're quite energetic!"

Who would keep an eye on that? Their eyes are like hooks.

Chen Gaoshan pushed the person away and tried to tear off her cotton-padded coat, but his hand was held down.

"I only have this one cotton-padded coat. If it gets torn, I won't have anything to wear."

Then he saw Liu Chuncao unbuttoning her clothes one button at a time.

He picked the person up and weighed them in his hand. "Look how skinny you are, how come you've grown so much?"

The next moment, the two of them started dancing on the ground. Tan Ge would just keep walking and walking, taking three steps and then leaping, with two flaxen hairs and two heads, and then you would keep walking and walking.

After a long while, Chen Gaoshan looked at Chuncao, who was lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) breastfeeding her child.

She glared at herself. "It's all your fault, you didn't even leave some for the child."

When you don't know how to choose good fruit, just pick the one that someone else has already picked and put in the bag. He licked his upper lip.

The young widow who has given birth has a different kind of feeling.

"Don't worry, now that you're my woman, I won't let you go hungry. It's getting late, I have to go back, or things might get complicated."

He fastened his belt, put on his clothes, and just as he reached the door, he heard Chuncao calling him from the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Gaoshan, from now on I'm yours. I don't ask for much, just that you come once or twice a month."

Fearing that his family would worry if he stayed too long, Chen Gaoshan waved and turned to leave the mud-brick house.

He glanced at the pile of unchopped firewood in the corner of the yard and, thinking that it would be difficult for Liu Chuncao, a woman, to chop firewood, he quickly walked over, bent down and picked up the rusty axe on the ground.

He was physically strong and had plenty of strength.

The firewood, as thick as a bowl, was quickly chopped into neat blocks. In no time, the pile of wood was all chopped and stacked squarely against the wall.

Chen Gaoshan patted the sawdust off his hands, dusted off the dirt, and quickly started walking towards home.

It's completely dark now, but you know what? The stars are really bright at this time of day.

A few days ago, there was a heavy snowfall, and the snow on the ground was half a foot thick, a vast expanse of white. With the help of starlight and the reflection of the snow, the road was clearly visible, so there was no need to feel one's way in the dark.

Chen Gaoshan, eager to get home, quickened his pace.

But after taking only two steps, he stopped and stared intently at the edge of the woods near the foot of the mountain not far away.

In the darkness, two faint green dots shone, like two small lanterns, looking in his direction.

Chen Gaoshan's heart skipped a beat, and his scalp tingled instantly.

Could it be a hungry wolf?

The heavy snowfall over the past few days has blocked the roads in the mountains, and wild animals, unable to find food, will surely come down from the mountains to forage. In previous years, at this time, wolves would often come down from the mountains to snatch lambs and piglets from the village, but I never expected to run into one myself.

He felt a little panicked. Although he had a spatial ability, he had never seen a wild wolf in the wild before, except for the wild animals he had seen in cages at the zoo.

My calves started to give way involuntarily.

Damn it, I was able to keep my legs from giving out even after three attempts last night, but now that I've run into some wild thing, I'm so scared I'm going to go limp. What a coward!

Not daring to be careless, he quickly turned his head, grabbed a stick from a thick branch that was sticking out from the side, and held it in his hand.

The distance between them was less than five meters, and he stared at the two eerie green lights.

He didn't dare to breathe, staring intently at the two green dots. Before long, he saw the green light slowly press down, its body lowered, clearly indicating that a wild beast was preparing to attack.

Chen Gaoshan quickly squinted and carefully examined the wolf by the starlight. He first saw that it was a lone wolf and breathed a slight sigh of relief. But before he could even catch his breath, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

About three meters away from the wolf, in the snow, there was another dark figure, also with a pair of green dots, lying motionless in the snow, staring at him. It turned out to be two wolves!

He swallowed hard and slowly backed away.

If you encounter this wild animal, never turn your back to it. Humans don't have eyes in the back of their heads. Once you turn around and run, wolves, wild boars, bears and other wild animals are best at chasing fleeing prey. How can two legs outrun four legs?

Running away like a duck is a dead end.

You absolutely cannot stand still and play dead. Wild animals aren't stupid; a motionless prey is just fast food delivered to your door, waiting to be torn apart.

He could only slowly retreat while keeping a close eye on the two wolves, observing their movements.

"Damn it!" he cursed under his breath. The two beasts were staring at him without blinking, clearly studying how to pounce on him and make him their meal.

Normally, wolves don't attack people unless they are starving or there is no mother to protect them. It seems that these two wolves were driven mad by the heavy snow, which is why they dared to come down the mountain and hurt people.

After taking two steps back, Chen Gaoshan knew he was right; they were truly starving!

The two wolves, who had been lying in ambush in the snow, suddenly moved at the same time. Their movements were swift and methodical, one on the left and one on the right, as they tried to flank him and charged directly at him.

It was late at night, and the whole village was quiet. There wasn't even a dog barking. Moreover, he was at the foot of the mountain at the west end of the village, where there was no one else around.

Chen Gaoshan quickly scanned his surroundings; there was no one there.

He gripped the branch in his hand tightly and began to swing it.

He was gambling that these two starving beasts would first pounce on the branch in his hand, rather than attack his body directly!

Sure enough, the green-skinned wolf opened its mouth wide and bit the branch in his hand.

The wolf's head thrashed wildly, trying to break the branch from his grasp, letting out a low, fierce growl, its spittle mingling with snowflakes and splashing all over his hand.

Almost at the same second, another wolf pounced from the right, biting his trouser leg in one swift motion, its fangs about to pierce into his leather pants.

At the critical moment, Chen Gaoshan's survival instinct immediately activated the space within his body.

In the blink of an eye, the two shrews that were baring their teeth and lunging at you just moments before vanished into thin air, leaving only a tree branch gnawed by wolves, bearing their teeth marks.

Even with the memories fused in his mind and his hunting experience, he was still somewhat afraid when faced with a wolf attacking him. Fortunately, he had a spatial dimension; otherwise, without any weapons, even with hunting experience, it wouldn't have mattered.
