Chapter 54 Fighting Los: Trash, huh.

The ibex's neck had been torn open by the snow leopard's sharp fangs, and the blood had already coagulated. Los looked ferocious when eating meat, but he was not usually like this. I just don't know why he ate so violently today.

Xu Nian looked at the mountain goat in front of him with some hesitation, then glanced at Los secretly. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what the problem was for a moment.

"Why don't you eat? Don't you like it?" Los turned around and looked at Xu Nian. Meeting Xu Nian's timid gaze, Los bared his fangs, raised his chin towards the mountain goat in front of Xu Nian, and said, "Why don't you eat it?"

Xu Nian: ...

"How about I eat it with you? I'll keep this one for now." Xu Nian said cautiously, "Okay?"

"No," Los refused without hesitation. He frowned and looked at the blue sheep under his claws, saying with disdain, "This sheep is so small and skinny, there's no meat at all."

"It's actually not bad. The meat is tender." Xu Nian praised cautiously.

However, the snow leopard, which was easy to coax in the past, was stubborn at this moment. It turned its head and glanced at Xu Nian. Los, who had just eaten prey, had blood on his face, which made his eyes look even wilder, with a cold and almost ruthless look that was unique to wild beasts.

"But, it's indeed a little small." The moment Xu Nian realized something was wrong, he immediately bit the ibex that Los gave him and carefully dragged it back a little. Noticing that Los's expression relaxed a little, he knew that his bet was right and he had finally caught the right opportunity. He immediately lowered his head and bit the ibex under his claws.

This was not the first time that Los was moody. Fortunately, although Xu Nian was timid, he was very stable. He just stroked his fur. After all, every leopard has its own way of deceiving others, and he was almost familiar with it.

The easiest thing about Los is that he is very easy to satisfy, just go along with what he says.

Sure enough, the snow leopard, which was labeled as "very easy to coax", gently shook its tail after Xu Nian's words. It was obviously pleased by Xu Nian's words. It lowered its head and threw the half-carried blue sheep in its mouth aside, then came to Xu Nian who was eating and licked him.

"Your blood is all over my fur." Xu Nian was a little helpless. He had just cleaned it, but it was stained by the sheep's blood on Los's body. Hearing this, Los subconsciously leaned over and sniffed it gently, and then said: "It will be fine after rolling in the snow."

The mountain goat hunted by Los was indeed bigger than the one Xu Nian brought back. After eating, Xu Nian lay on his back on the ground, rubbing his fur clean in the snow. He turned his head to look at Los, and found that his fur had also been cleaned and was still a little fluffy.

"They are all mountain goats you hunted. Why do you like this one but not that one?" Xu Nian asked.

Los's behavior was so obvious, if Xu Nian still couldn't see it, then his eyesight was really bad. He took advantage of the fact that Los was still happy after eating, and simply half-lay beside Los and rubbed against him.

"...I hunted them all?" Los repeated Xu Nian's words.

"Of course, I saw you catch it myself. Then I followed you, but you ran too fast and I couldn't catch up. I only followed you to Kai's den. Since your tail was injured, I thought I'd drag the mountain goat back first to save you the trouble of carrying it up the mountain." Xu Nian honestly recounted his journey and said sweetly, "Didn't you notice my scent in the cave? And I left claw marks. Did you see that?"

Upon hearing this, Los's eyes became slightly sharp for a moment, but when Xu Nian looked over, he immediately became calm, as usual. He just licked Xu Nian vigorously and said, "I see, very nice claw marks."

Xu Nian was silent for a moment. It seemed that he was not asking whether the claw marks were beautiful or not. Los's focus was a little off.

Los looked down at Xu Nian, who was lying next to his paw with a comfortable look on his face. Although he didn't know why Xu Nian mistook him for Luo Yin, after thinking about it carefully, it was probably because Xu Nian was too far away and couldn't tell the difference between Luo Yin and himself. In addition, the other party's sense of smell was impaired. It was probably because of these reasons that Xu Nian made a mistake.

It simply accepted the mistake and admitted it.

Los lowered his head and licked Xu Nian, his tail gently hooked, his eyes fixed on the surrounding snow-capped mountains. After thinking for a moment, he whispered, "Did you pick up this blue sheep in Kai'e's den?"

"Hmm..." Xu Nian was lying on the ground, licking his furry paws and belly with his paws hooked. After hearing what Los said, he turned his head to look at Los and nodded obediently: "Yes, didn't you see the paw prints I left?"

"I see." Los' eyes fell on the paw prints left by Xu Nian on the snow. Because Xu Nian always liked to put his paw pads on the ground when he walked, there were usually very complete paw prints left on the snow.

"I was worried that you would get anxious when you came back and didn't see the prey, so I left claw marks to remind you." Xu Nian half-closed his eyes. His belly was a little bulging because he ate too much. Xu Nian was trying to arch his back to lick the hair on his belly.

Ross nodded to show that he understood.

It lowered its eyes and looked at Xu Nian's open paw pad. This paw pad was smaller than its own and also smaller than Luo Yin's. Xu Nian's sense of smell was impaired, but Luo Yin's was not. Perhaps the other party had recognized Xu Nian's breath and was even looking for him everywhere.

The wild snow leopard suddenly became worried.

Just as Los expected, Luo Yin was lowering his head to sniff the scent. God knows, he fell several times in a row for this mountain goat. As a result, he went out to clean his fur, and the prey disappeared.

Luo Yin had never seen the snow leopard dare to take away its prey in his entire life. It even left its claw marks and breath behind. It was really arrogant!

It lowered its head and sniffed, following the scent all the way up. Suddenly, it felt something was wrong. It lowered its head and sniffed again, and it felt that there seemed to be a hint of Los's scent in this breath.

It raised its head, frowned, and looked at the place where the aura disappeared. After thinking for a moment, it gritted its teeth and said, "This is all Los's conspiracy!"

After losing the blue sheep, Luo Yin had to find two rabbits to barely fill his stomach. Seeing that the wind and snow were getting stronger, he had to return to his nest for safety.

It curled up, used its tail to cushion its body for warmth, looked at the snow layer outside which was getting higher and higher, and closed its eyes to rest.

In the middle of the night, Luo Yin suddenly felt something was wrong while he was sleeping. His nose twitched slightly, and he suddenly opened his eyes, meeting a pair of eyes that were also looking in his direction.

Enemies often meet on a narrow road. Before Luo Yin went to look for his useless brother, the other party dared to come looking for him.

"Waste." The two snow leopards shouted at the same time, and then rushed towards each other, biting each other in anger.

…

The next morning, when Xu Nian woke up, he felt a little cold. He hadn't been woken up by the cold wind for a long time. He half-opened his eyes and looked around for Los's figure. The first thing he saw was his big furry tail.

Los was sitting on the cliff with his back to him, looking outside as usual. However, he usually faced Xu Nian sideways, and rarely faced Xu Nian with his back like this. Seeing this, he tilted his furry head slightly, crawled out of the nest, and was about to move closer to Los, but Los said without even turning his head: "Don't come over, I want to be alone for a while."

Xu Nian, who was about to lie down next to Los, subconsciously paused. He looked at Los in confusion, not understanding why this snow leopard seemed to be acting weird again after waking up. However, judging from its tone, it seemed that it was in a good mood.

"What's wrong?" Xu Nian obediently squatted behind Los. He tilted his furry head slightly and asked with some concern, "Are you in a bad mood?"

"No." Los licked his paw and said calmly, "I just want to be alone for a while."

Los was unwilling to speak, and Xu Nian had no way of pressing him, so he could only nod, think for a moment, and then say, "Then I'll go for a stroll down the mountain—"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Los, who said, "You can just stroll here and you are not allowed to go down the mountain."

Xu Nian felt that Los was becoming more and more strange, and even held down his own tail, as if he was hiding some secret that could not be told. After thinking for a moment, Xu Nian raised his paw and quietly stepped back, then deliberately whimpered.

Sure enough, Los, who was worried that he would roll down, suddenly stood up and turned to look at Xu Nian. He met Xu Nian's gaze, and the two snow leopards looked at each other. Xu Nian widened his eyes in shock, looking at the several wounds on Los' body that were still bleeding, and the slightly bald hair on his tail in great surprise.

"Who could beat you like this?!" Xu Nian couldn't describe the shock in his heart.

"...How can you talk like that?" Los swung his tail unhappily and said, "It's just a fight. It's not much better."

"...Who?" Xu Nian quickly leaned over and carefully examined Los's wounds. After confirming that they were only superficial, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is it also a snow leopard? Who is so wicked? Their claws are so black."

Los's unhappy look instantly showed a hint of satisfaction. He gently wagged his tail and said, "It's okay, don't worry, it will be fine soon."

Xu Nian leaned over and licked Los's wound, rubbing him gently. Los was very close to Xu Nian, so close that if he just moved a little closer, he could kiss him, close enough to see the almost tangible worry in Xu Nian's eyes.

它顿时哼笑一声，舔了舔爪子，神情看上去有些倨傲，道：“去揍了个废物。”

Xu Nian paused, feeling that something was wrong with what he said. He couldn't remember what the problem was, so he asked in a low voice, "Did you and Kai'e go to fight?"

Los's face froze, and after thinking for two seconds, he said reluctantly, "Kaye? Huh."

There was a disdainful tone in his voice. Xu Nian was glad that Kaie was not here, otherwise he didn't know how broken his defense would be.

At this moment, Luo Yin, who was lying in his den, took several deep breaths. His expression was grim, and he anxiously licked his tail, which was also bald. He said hatefully, "What's wrong with you? You stole my prey and still come to trouble me. Do you really think I'm useless?"

It slammed its claws hard on the rock wall next to it, and its fur exploded in anger. However, a large chunk of snow on its head slid down and fell right in front of the nest.

Luo Yin looked at the large piece of snow that had slid down, and then looked at the snowflakes that were still falling. The beast's instinct told it that something big was going to happen.
