Chapter 5 Chapter 4 Born to Swim

There is a mysterious and unstoppable power in Green - the power of growth.The most obvious and external manifestation of this power is curiosity and exploration. Nothing can stop this power rising in his body. When everything in the house is boring to him, what he yearns for most is the world outside the house.When Green met Yifeng for the first time, he no longer hid himself instinctively, but sniffed this stranger curiously, this growing wave of life washed away his innate sense of fear. Green's appetite is getting bigger and bigger. A carton of milk every two or three days is not enough, and I go out to buy more and more frequently.Green's curious eyes saw me disappear behind the door again and again, and I opened the door again and again, and every time I got something in my hand-eggs, milk, and the fishy meat that was infinitely attractive to him.Green jumped up eagerly and bit the bag, then watched in disappointment as I stored all the food in the cold cabinet that he couldn't crack open.He always looks forward to crawling into that cabinet to eat his fill one day, and he is always curious about why I can bring back delicious food every time I disappear outside the door.Many questions constantly stimulated his curiosity, and he began to follow me every time I wanted to go out, wanting to go outside to see what happened, but I was sternly stopped and pushed back into the house every time.The door was closed in front of Little Green, so he had to entertain himself in the room alone, listening carefully behind the door from time to time, knowing that if there were familiar footsteps, his mother would come back with food.

Once I opened the door and caught Green, who was waiting anxiously, behind the door. I went into the room and turned around but couldn't find it. I turned around and found the little ball of fur stuck behind the door, whining pitifully; Green stepped on it and creaked, so I hurriedly stopped my foot.After that, I learned to carefully open the door a crack first, and when Green got in, I held him in my arms before opening the door, so that I would neither pinch him nor step on him.But these did not dissuade Green from wanting to spy on the world outside the door. He always took advantage of the time when I finished mopping the floor and opened the door for ventilation. Staring at the empty corridor in a daze, the occasional breeze in the corridor seemed to easily knock him over.He stood stubbornly staggering, not daring to take the first step until I closed the door.

The next day, he stretched out a small paw and stepped on the smooth and solid floor tiles outside the door, and a chill came from his sensitive palm.On the third day, he stepped out of the door with all four paws, and walked a few steps. His shadow was reflected on the smooth floor tiles, like a partner hidden in an unknown world, and Green felt a strange feeling in his heart.It wasn't until I called to find him that Green turned around like a frightened fawn and fled back to the house. Green's wolf smell is getting stronger and stronger, I have to open the door every day to breathe, and Green's desire to go out is getting stronger and faster, and his pace is getting faster and faster.I consciously wanted to let him know that he was not allowed to go out, so I imitated the movement of the female wolf to teach the cub with her paws, and stretched out my hand to push him back.Green rolled a few steps away like a yo-yo, turned over and rushed towards the door even more without hesitation, then hit back, and rushed again!Hit again, rush again!Dozens of such fights back and forth can't change Green's determination at all. My hands are sore, what a stubborn wolf!Rolling and rolling, Green lay motionless on the ground.Is the shot heavy?My heart tightened, and I hurriedly looked over, and it turned out that the little guy was already so tired that he fell asleep.

As soon as Green woke up, he spotted me and walked towards the door again. He immediately crawled towards the door without making a sound. I just opened a crack in the door, but he jumped out and put his head in the crack first. Lock the door and don't let him out. "Squeak!" Green screamed to indicate that he was pinched, and I hurriedly opened the door a little so that he could step back.The first reaction of any animal (including humans) after being pinched by a door is to withdraw from the pinched part.Green, however, was beyond my expectation. Instead of withdrawing his trapped little head, he thrust it hard into the crack of the door. "Are you going to die?" I grabbed Green's thin legs and dragged him back. He struggled desperately and insisted on clamping his head in the crack of the door. His eyes were bloodshot, and he howled and roared to demonstrate to me. , that look seemed to be a threat: "Come on, I'm going out unless you pinch my head off!" I had to compromise, opened the door and let Green walk a few steps in the corridor.

However, Green walked farther and farther in the corridor each time, and the more he walked, the more courageous he became.In order to stop the increasingly curious Green, I used coffee tables, chairs, wooden boards and many other household items that could be used to block the doorway during the ventilation, so that he would retreat.But there seems to be no harm outside the door. Green doesn't understand why I have to stop him again and again. This curiosity finally triumphed over fear and obedience to me.One day, Green came to these barriers with a puppet in his mouth, thinking of the mysterious partner he met on the floor outside that day, a sense of loneliness and longing made him drop the puppet in his mouth, and looked at the barriers between him and Rao Shizi from the outside world.He tried many times but couldn't turn it over, but today he found that the puppet can help him, "everything that exists can be used", which Green is very good at.He stepped on the puppet and directed his little arms and legs to climb the coffee table.After falling on his back several times, he successfully climbed over the obstacle, twisted his little butt and ran out of the door against time!My calling didn't work anymore, Green was afraid of being caught by me, and ran towards the elevator with all his strength while slipping on the floor tiles!Immediately, Meimei's exclamation and Green's shrill scream came.Something went wrong!I hurriedly chased them out.

It turned out that Green saw the girl waiting for the elevator just now, and approached curiously to show his affection.Meimei is a person who is afraid of dogs, and she is even more afraid that Green's paws will scratch her sexy stockings. Seeing Green approaching, she tap dances in horror, and the dancing high heels become a lethal weapon, hitting Green's little paw heavily stomped.Green whimpered and hid behind me, leaning helplessly on my calf in panic.Meimei scolded: "Where did the wild dogs come from? It doesn't matter, if you scratch the socks, you will pay!" I apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, did you catch it? I'll compensate you, I'm really sorry."

"It's all neighbors and neighbors, so what's the fuss? You didn't scratch it, but you stepped on the dog and barked." Another boy who was waiting for the elevator interrupted, "I just apologize, what are you talking about? No Affect your beauty!" The last sentence was very useful, Meimei rolled her eyes, walked into the elevator with her slender waist twisted: "If you mess with me again, I will step on it to death!" She closed the elevator door and went downstairs .I thought of the high-heeled shoes that abused cats on the Internet, and a chill came down my back.The young man pressed the elevator button again.

"Thank you!" I knelt down and touched Green, who was quite frightened, "I made you wait for the next elevator." "It's okay, I can't stand the smell of that perfume either." He suddenly fixed his eyes on Green, "He seems to be hurt." I looked down and saw a bunch of red plum blossom marks on the ground. Green's left front paw was hanging weakly on his chest and trembling. His small body couldn't find his balance.Green leaned limply against my leg.Like all frightened puppies, he kept whining, and the injured paw swung like a pendulum on his narrow chest with the rapid panting and barking, and he whined uncontrollably stand up.

I was so distressed, I gently carried Green back into the room, put him on the sofa to check his paws, just pushed the fluff off his little paws to flatten his feet, Green groaned like weeping bitterly, and pulled away resistingly. Claws, and even opened its mouth to bite my hand.While comforting him, I quickly checked his bones, cut off a part of his toenail hanging from the flesh, sprinkled a little Baiyao powder, and then let go of his claws, hardened my heart and let him pull After moaning for a while, Green buried his head and used his little tongue to clean his wound naturally, just like every time he cleans his body.

"Green doesn't hurt, Green is brave." I watched Green limping and trembling and moving his small body for a few days, and I didn't know how to comfort him better.It's lucky that the high heels that can crush a kitten's head didn't hurt his bones.But one of his toes has since been missing a piece, making Green's footprints particularly recognizable.Although wolves are bound to have scars on their bodies, other wolves are wounded in battle. Every wound is exchanged for food, dignity, family and territory. Every wound is enough to make the wolf proud.However, the first scar in Little Green's life was left in the process of being friendly to humans. This should not be the scar that a wolf should have.

Not everyone is approachable, Green, you must remember! I cleaned the house better so he wouldn't get an infection from his injury.Green remained honest for several days, and the wound gradually healed. A few days later, Green began to stir again.But the first painful memory of growing up is profound. Whenever Green heard the sound of high heels hitting the ground, he would go back under the bed in horror and tremble, so that the wolf's fur stood on end.Since then, I have never worn high heels when I was with Green. After Green's little paw was healed, I decided to let Green touch the ground.For the first time, he was allowed to walk out of the thick house door and came to the courtyard of the community. The afternoon sun was shining brightly, and everything was strange and fresh to him.The soft and damp soil is the soil, and the feeling of stepping on it with little paws is so good, it is many times more comfortable than the slippery floor at home. Some curiosity.There are so many temptations in the strange world, and he has long forgotten the existence of his mother. Green uses his mouth, nose, claws, and even his body to perceive and explore the unknown world that has captured him magically. The pollen made him sneezed several times and rolled several times on the lush grass. Some grass stalks were cut with tender noses that still hurt a little. Biting a branch to grind his restless itchy baby teeth... Green curiously explored this strange world. He was particularly interested in moving things. If someone passed by, he would happily follow them to see what happened. "Hey, this little guy looks like a big mouse." An old woman commented by looking at his thin tail. "I feel like a pig," a young man commented, looking at Green's protruding mouth. Green wandered around these people with great interest, followed them to the door of the unit, smelled them back and forth, and categorized these smells one by one.While playing, Green suddenly pricked up his ears, his whole body was shaken, his expression changed suddenly, and he ran back in panic as if he had hit an evil spirit. In the panic, I disappeared, and he plunged into the grass beside the flower table and hid, sifting through the chaff with his small body Trembling as if, the surrounding grass trembled recklessly, he exposed one eye and looked out of the grass in fear. What's wrong?Just as I was wondering, I heard the crisp sound of "tap, tap" coming from the unit door, and a woman in high heels walked out of the unit door.It turned out that this sound frightened the little guy. Green had already classified the sound of high heels as a very lethal fear note, and made a hidden reaction at the first time.It wasn't until the woman walked away that the sound of "tapping" disappeared completely that he tentatively stretched out his head to look around, and was ready to run away at any time.Hehe, the scar still remembers the pain, smart boy! Mother's familiar sound of calling for milk came again, Green felt a little hungry, staggered and ran back to his mother with his little butt twisting, and plunged into the familiar milk bowl.After taking a few sips to quench his thirst, Green was attracted by the sound again. He turned his head and trotted all the way, screaming and continuing his adventure, running towards the place where the most beautiful flowers bloomed—unfortunately it was a Pond water lilies.Green had never seen water before, and the water looked flat, so he ran into it without thinking. "thump!" However, the water did not really support Green's young body like the land, but pulled him in and surrounded him with a cold momentum.cold!Green hurriedly opened his mouth to breathe. After a moment of confusion and confusion, Green surfaced, and the fresh air once again favored his open mouth, filling his eager thirst for oxygen.Green is no longer sinking, he vaguely heard the sound of his mother coming, but where is the direction?Green opened his piercing eyes and the first thing he saw was the opposite bank, so he instinctively paddled with four legs, his little tail was still adjusting the direction like a rudder, as if he knew how to coordinate his movements a long time ago. The wind stared in surprise and Green began to swim.In fact, behind him was the shore that he fell off just now, but he swam towards the only other shore he could see. Under the afternoon sun, a wolf cub just full moon is showing his natural swimming ability in the beautiful water lily pond. This is a picture that I never dreamed of.Surprised, admired, admired, worried!I want to observe Green's performance but I am afraid that he will choke to death, but I know that some cognition courses about the world must be experienced in the process of growing up, and some real-world experiences must be obtained and summarized by Green himself and cannot be taught.Today, Green understood this truth in the pool of the community, and he will be able to avoid being stupid in the big rivers in the future. Green continued to swim, and he turned to the beautiful and fantastic water lilies that lured him into the water, but the flowers and leaves that hid each one at the first touch had no intention of saving him.Green felt extremely lonely and helpless. He opened his mouth pitifully and wailed, and water was poured into his mouth again immediately, making him swallow the sound alive. At that moment, he understood the cruelty of the strange world.My calling sounded eagerly on the other side, and then Green remembered that there is still a mother in the world, so he insisted on swimming towards the far-away side in his eyes.The top of Green's head went dark, and he swam into the sewer. His mother's voice suddenly became anxious, and his intuition told him that there was no way out, so he quickly backed out. Fortunately, it was not the rapids of the sewer. Finally, he was picked up wetly by his mother lying on the shore.Green finally got his feet on the ground. The wet little guy was shaking with lingering fear, and his four calves, without the fluffy lanugo, were bent pitifully like hemp stalks. Green finally learned what water is, and some seemingly calm surfaces are not. So practical, he knew that the water that kept him alive could also kill him. I didn't expect Green to fall into the water, and of course I didn't prepare a towel, so I simply held him in my arms and pulled the hem of his clothes to wipe him.Pulling back Green's wolf fur, I was surprised to find that after swimming in the water for seven or eight minutes, only the outer layer of hair was wet, while the inner layer of fluff was completely dry. No wonder people say wolf fur keeps warm, When it snows, Sirius can lie down in the snow nest all night and sleep peacefully. It turns out that his fur is so wonderful that even if the snow under his body melts, his inner layer of fur cannot be wetted.I put Green on a toy swing hanging from the children's play area, and let him hang out in the sun.The water evaporated in a short while, and his fine hair was fluffy and golden in the sun, shimmering softly.Where is the little guy?Aiming at the location, he briefly measured the height with his small eyes. "Crack!" Green jumped down clumsily and landed on the foam floor of the children's play area. He raised his injured paw a few days ago, wailed twice, then fell silent, and continued to look around. Young Green's escape from the water gave him ten minutes to be quiet, and he had learned the power of a strange world, but now that he had survived, there seemed nothing to fear.Green quickly forgot his panic and continued to take risks.It's just that whenever he passed by the pool, he just sniffed and looked around at the water's edge, and didn't step in rashly. What can stop a pair of curious little eyes from exploring the world?Mothers cannot limit their children's attempts with worry, and their own experience is more meaningful than the experience taught.Little Green is constantly exploring, learning, distinguishing, and growing... Classifying the things he knows one by one, and storing the valuable information learned in his mind. Green was tired, his body was tired, and his little head was also tired. The sum of all the previous days was not as hard and fulfilling as today.On the way home, the little guy walked with me and fell asleep on the ground. I picked him up and put him on my shoulders. After returning home in the sunset, I put him back in the nest like a kitten , all of which did not disturb his sweet dreams in the slightest. Kiss his little forehead, good night, little furball!
