Life was very different at Scott's home. Scott lived with his father, a judge(法官), his mother, and his sister. There were other animals as well, such as cats and chickens. White Fang had to learn that the other people in the house were friends and that he must not attack(攻击) the chickens or cats.
One day, he killed fifty of the birds. Scott was angry with White Fang. He did not beat him badly, but he pushed his head at the dead birds and hit White Fang at the same time. This way, White Fang knew he had done wrong.
“The animal is a wolf,” Scott's father said. “You'll never teach him not to kill chickens.”
“He won't attack another chicken,” Scott said. “Will you make a bet with me?”
The judge agreed, and the two men had a bet.
“I'll lock White Fang in the chicken house,” Scott said. “He can stay there all night. In the morning, not one chicken will be dead.”
And this was what happened. White Fang behaved as if there were no chickens in the chicken house. He had learned his lesson.
By this time, everyone in Scott's family liked White Fang. They felt safe with him because he knew them, even though he was not a “house dog”.
After Scott came back home from the Yukon, a dangerous man appeared. His name was Jim Hall, and he had killed many men. He wanted to kill the judge who had sent him to prison(监狱). This was Scott's father.
One night, Jim Hall got into the house and planned to shoot(射杀) the judge while he was sleeping. However, White Fang saw the strange man. He knew that this man was not a friend and leapt at him. A fight went on for a long time. Jim Hall shot White Fang several times, but White Fang would not let him go.
The noise woke everyone up. The police came and took Jim Hall back to prison. White Fang's wounds were very bad, and he was dying. Scott sent for a doctor who looked at White Fang and said, “He has only a one-in-a-thousand chance of survival.”
The doctor did everything he could for White Fang, but he lost a lot of blood. He had a broken leg, and there were bullet holes in his chest. But as the days passed, White Fang slowly got better. He lived, but he could not fight again. He lived the rest of his life quietly with Scott and his family.
