Wolf Totem Page #5

Chen Zhen.

It's important to keep one's appointment.

I have heard Tengger a lot recently.

He's calling me.

Don't be silly.

We are going to hunt wolves.

Revenge for you.

Your wounds will be recovered soon.

Chen Zhen.

I have to talk to you.

You are the wolf expert now.

Follow me.

Let's go!

It is okay.

Don't be afraid.

The bad guys are gone...

...promise.

They won't bother you anymore.

I'll be right back.

Get in.

The grass is too tall here.

Why did you bring us here?

Go north, that way.

Did you do it on purpose...

...to stop us finding the wolves?

Most of them have already been killed.

Our Jeeps make too much noise anyway.

Maybe we should...

Look! On the hillside to the left!

Two wolves, over there!

Try to follow them!

Stay parallel!

Ready.

Fire!

Two down.

It is just a start.

Let's go.

Go fast! Go!

There! Take the pack downslope.

This is an old couple.

They won't go far.

The wolf jumped.

What the...?

Their fur is worthless.

Better to die than to get skinned.

Mom, is it healing?

It's all right. It's fine.

Mom, then why are you crying?

Bring the jerry can.

Bartel, come.

Block their escape to the west.

This way.

Don't let them escape.

Go!

Spill the fuel.

Stop!

Stop.

Fire is forbidden in the steppe!

So are wolves.

The nomads will hate you.

They hate me anyway.

Even more so...

...since I helped you...

...keep your wolf.

Being a leader...

...is not about being liked.

Sometimes, you have to obey orders...

...that your heart resents.

Save your bullet.

Their fur is worthless anyway.

The pack leader.

Don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

We need his fur intact...

...without holes!

Try to exhaust it!

Good, good.

I need it alive. Don't be rushed.

Go faster!

No shooting!

How long has it been running?

About 38 kilometers.

Good.

It will be done soon.

Now what?

Chen Zhen.

Chen Zhen, come back.

Have you lost your mind?

Chen Zhen.

Chen Zhen!

Come back!

You spared my life a year ago.

Go away.

Quickly.

They can't follow you...

...in those rocks.

Go away.

Leave it here.

He belongs to Tengger.

Do what he says.

I fed your wolf.

- His appetite is good.

- Let's unload these dead wolves.

How is Bayar?

Fine.

But A'ba is not good.

The wolves are all dead.

Sorry.

Not all of them.

Yours is still alive.

I promised A'ba...

...I'd set the cub free.

The hunt is over.

It's the best time of the year.

He'll be safe...

...in the northern range mountains.

I have to do it.

Because I love him.

But I lack courage.

Little wolf, little wolf, time to eat!

I'm sorry.

I'm late today.

Little wolf.

Little wolf?

Little wolf!

Little wolf!

Where's little wolf?

I returned him...

...to the grassland.

You killed him?

I should have.

But I couldn't.

I freed it.

You had no right!

He is my wolf!

He is Tengger's wolf.

I owed Him a life.

No.

Two, actually.

Bayar is saved, then.

Almost healed.

It's a miracle.

It's the power of modern medicine.

It's the future.

You Han people...

With Bilig's death...

...it was the grassland I knew

and I loved that was dying.

Time had come for me...

...to become again...

...the young city man

I had never ceased to be.

Little wolf!

Little wolf!

The memory of the little wolf

haunted Chen Zhen forever.

He devoted his life to writing a book...

...in the hope that the wolves'

long-songs will be heard once again...

...over the restored splendor

of Mongolia's grassland.
