He ran into the forest, following the sound, and came to an open place in the trees.

他跑进森林, 追随着那呼声, 来到了林子间的一片空地上。

And there, his nose pointing to the sky, sat a wolf.

But Buck did not want to fight, and soon the wolf realized this, and the two animals became friendly.

但是巴克无意开战, 很快狼就意识到了这点。两头动物变得友好起来。

Then the wolf started to run again, and he clearly wanted Buck to follow him.

Then they stopped to drink, and Buck remembered John Thornton.
