22 Decisive Battle
◎But there were three lions there. How could he, a single lion, possibly defeat them?◎
"Cloak?" Qiao Jinnian shouted towards the bushes.
Cloak was a little timid, but when he heard her call, he came out, looking at Ryan cautiously as he walked.
But Ryan didn't even look in his direction.
At this moment, Cloak ran to her side to see what she was doing there.
"Let's go hunting." Qiao Jinnian thought for a moment. These were the things caught by the baboon group. It would be inappropriate to feed them to Cloak, since Cloak didn't do anything after all.
The jackal tilted its head and thought for a moment, then set out to catch its prey.
The honey badger has always been bold and not afraid of anyone, but for some reason he just hid in the cave and watched this side.
The meat was too big, so Qiao Jinnian only roasted a whole piece of leg meat. The rest was eaten raw by the baboons. They just wanted to try the roasted meat, as the two meats tasted different.
After a while, the jackal caught a mouse, bit it to death and put it next to her, meaning that she should roast it and eat it too.
Qiao Jinnian: "..."
If she were a little more timid, she would probably jump up and scream!
Sometimes, she even felt that the scariest creatures in the world, besides mice, were cockroaches, with the exception of hamsters, as long as she wasn't allowed to eat them. She was more accepting of large cats like lions and leopards.
"Eat it yourself," Qiao Jinnian thought for a moment. With his cloak so small, he could usually only hunt a small antelope or zebra. He really had no other options, so he said, "Here are some bones for you to eat."
The bones were still unprocessed by the fire, and the vultures had not come over yet, so they were all given to Cloak to eat.
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, the honey badger hiding in the cave came out as he was supposed to.
But when he got closer, that familiar smell reached Ryan's nostrils.
Ryan, who was originally thought to have fallen asleep, jumped up, followed the smell, and pounced directly on the honey badger.
He bit the honey badger, but the biggest flaw of the honey badger was that its fur was extremely smooth and thick, making it impossible for him to bite it and there was no fulcrum.
So Ryan had to put the honey badger on the ground and hold him down with his claws.
Being provoked by the other party, the honey badger's temper flared up again. Although he was short in stature, in his eyes, everyone was smaller than him. It was just a lion, and he would bite it!
Then, all the baboons and ostriches came to watch the battle between the honey badger and the king of the grassland - the lion.
As we all know, male lions generally won't fight seriously with honey badger. After all, even if they win, their meat is not tasty and they are still small, so it really doesn't make up for it. Besides, the rainy season is here and everyone has enough food. Who would want to mess with such an annoying guy?
However, Ryan had to fight him because he remembered the smell. This was the guy who bit his cub and made it bleed last time.
When a lion gets angry and can't bite you to death, it will stretch out its huge claws and slam its already flat head to the ground.
"Bang, bang, bang--" Ryan shot left and right several times in a row, which made the honey badger a little confused for a moment and he didn't know where he was.
When Ryan was about to continue beating him to death, he was stopped by Qiao Jinnian. After all, there was no deep hatred between her and the Flathead Brother. Maybe she destroyed his vagina first and then stepped on him, so he bit her.
Now, the wound has healed long ago. Besides, the honey badger is actually quite powerful and is not even afraid of poisonous snakes. It can be a friend. More friends mean more options. It is not on the lion's diet, so forget it.
"Awoo—" Qiao Jinnian said coquettishly to Ryan*7.7.zl.
Sure enough, after hearing her roar, Ryan really slowed down his movements. He just slapped the honey badger on the head one last time, then licked his mouth and walked towards the tree indifferently.
The meaning of this slap was very clear. He let the honey badger go for the time being, but if he saw him again next time, he would just slap him to death.
But even if he let the honey badger go, the power of his big claws was too great, and the honey badger was dizzy for a long time and had to lie there to rest.
I have to say that the title of the number one brother on the grassland is not for nothing. Even if he was bitten by a poisonous snake, he just needed to take a good sleep. Now, he has woken up again and is full of energy again.
He was originally thinking of seeking revenge on the lion, but for some reason he changed his mind and came over to see what Qiao Jinnian was doing here.
Seeing him being slapped so many times by Ryan, he felt a little pitiful. Qiao Jinnian took out a piece of dried meat from her bag, put it in her hand, handed it to him, and placed it in front of him: "Roar——"
Qiao Jinnian didn't know what the honey badger's diet included, she only knew that he was also a carnivore. The most courageous thing was that he ate poisonous snakes as spicy strips. She didn't know if he would eat barbecue made from zebra meat.
Unexpectedly, the honey badger was not polite at all. It swallowed it directly into its mouth and chewed it with relish.
Cape, who was chewing a bone, saw this and came over to smell what she was feeding the honey badger. Qiao Jinnian naturally wanted to be fair, so she also fed him a piece of meat.
This was to welcome guests from afar, so she could only give them two pieces. After all, this was the meat caught by the lion father. Next time she would hunt it herself, she could treat the guests to it.
How could there be a creature in the animal kingdom that would casually entertain strange animals like her? So, the honey badger soon forgot about seeking revenge on the lion.
After the animals had eaten and drunk their fill, Ryan set out again at night, heading south.
At night, lions have good eyesight and the weather is cool, which is very suitable for animals like them with thick hair to move around.
However, Qiao Jinnian is a human being and has poor eyesight at night, so she can only sleep on Ryan's back and let Ryan carry her on the road.
When heading north, she didn't feel the road was far. It might be because Ryan was in a hurry to travel during the dry season, but not in a hurry during the rainy season. They had even walked together with the zebras, and the second batch of millions of wildebeests, as well as the gazelles and buffaloes were still far behind them.
So, Ryan was not in a hurry on the way back. When he got tired of eating zebras, he would run back to catch some wildebeests to change his taste.
However, sometimes they would accidentally enter the territory of other lion groups. Most of the time, the territorial lions would come over to claim their sovereignty, and they would quickly leave.
But sometimes, some territorial lions do not abide by the moral code of war.
That day, they entered a place at the foot of a volcano. Let's call the lion group here the volcano lion group.
This is a group of three adult male lions and many female lions. When Ryan was chasing the wildebeest, he happened to run into this volcanic lion group.
Originally, the territorial lion of the Volcano Lion Group roared at Ryan, asking him to leave quickly.
However, several female lions in the pride also saw Ryan and seemed happy.
This obviously angered the lions in the territory, and the three lions were actually preparing to have a life-and-death duel with Ryan.
But Ryan did not come to invade the lion group. He did not want to duel and just wanted to leave, but the three lions would not let him leave and surrounded him.
Qiao Jinnian was extremely anxious. No matter how powerful Ryan was, there were three lions. How could he, alone, defeat them?
Even if she could win, both would be injured in the end. She couldn't let Ryan get hurt. If a stray lion got injured on the grassland, she would take care of minor injuries. But if the spine or legs were injured, he would die.
At this moment, Qiao Jinnian's eyes were determined, and she was thinking of many things. She thought of Ryan taking her to get milk, trying his best to raise her, and adopting her without reservation.
If Ryan was killed by the lion, she, as a lion cub, would not be able to survive anyway, so she might as well fight them!
So, even though he had just learned to run, Qiao Jinnian still resolutely took the stone spear in his hand, ready to fight to the death at any time.
However, she couldn't die in vain even if she tried her best, so she had to think of a way.
What does the king of the grassland fear most?
She remembered that lions love to eat buffaloes, but every year a large number of lions die under the horns of buffaloes.
Since she had no way to stop the territorial lions from besieging Ryan, she could only seek help from external forces.
The baboons don't care at all about the decisive battle between the lions. After all, it has nothing to do with them. It is a battle between lions.
The ostrich didn't care. The jackal was very weak and hid aside, not daring to come out.
Of course, Qiao Jinnian would never expect other animals to be intelligent enough to fight to the death for their friends. This is the law of survival in the animal world.
As she was running, she found something following her. When she turned around, she saw that it was a honey badger.
Qiao Jinnian didn’t understand. Was this flat-headed brother going there to watch the fun?
Forget it, she didn't have time to care about him. She just kept running forward, trying to lure the buffalo over and use it to attack the lions.
This was too difficult for her, so she had to think of the best way. After all, she ran too slowly and the buffalo might trample her to death first.
Fortunately, they walked very slowly along the way. There was a river beside the grassland, and a large herd of buffaloes were drinking water by the river.
Buffaloes tend to be in a bad mood when drinking water, because drinking water and eating grass are very important to them, and they will be very angry if they are interrupted.
Therefore, Qiao Jinnian wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to attack them.
However, she must first choose a target, which must be the one that looks the most violent, and she cannot go too far at the beginning, otherwise the buffalo will kill her directly, and her death will be in vain.
After figuring it out, she walked forward and threw a stone at the butt of one of the strongest buffaloes from a distance.
The buffalo has thick skin and flesh, and these small stones cannot cause much damage, but he will also look back to see what is happening.
When he turned around, Qiao Jinnian stepped back a little and shot a stone directly at his hair so that he could see clearly that it was her who attacked him.
The buffalo had seen the enemy clearly, so of course it would not let her go, and ran towards her, but not very fast. After all, it was not out of any great hatred, it just wanted to come and teach the little lion a lesson.
Although she looks strange and walks upright, her whole body exudes the strong smell of a lion. In the eyes of these animals, she is a lion cub.
As she ran forward, she turned back and continued to throw stones at his head, leading him all the way to the territory of the volcanic lion group.
Finally, they saw the four lions fighting fiercely. At this time, Ryan was not at a disadvantage, but he was covered in blood. Qiao Jinnian couldn't tell whether it was his blood or not, and was extremely anxious.
She hardened her heart, raised the stone spear, and threw it at the buffalo's head with all her strength.
"Moo--" The buffalo's head was covered in blood and it was completely enraged. It rushed towards her madly.
