29 Teaching
◎ She didn't think twice and just rode on the lion's back.◎
These three cheetahs should be forming an alliance of brothers, as such alliances will have a higher success rate in hunting.
Cheetahs are the fastest animals in the entire land kingdom. No species can escape a cheetah's pursuit, but unfortunately, cheetahs are not very strong because they belong to the subfamily Felinae and are essentially just big cats.
The antelope ran very fast, but after just a few seconds, it was surrounded by three cheetahs from three different directions.
The cheetahs seemed to be in perfect harmony. Three of them pounced on the antelope at the same time and knocked it to the ground.
One cheetah bit the antelope's neck, and the other two bit its legs each. After the antelope fell to the ground, they were about to bite it to death, but they were surrounded by another group of spotted hyenas.
The reason why cheetahs are called working cheetahs on the grassland is because the fruits of their labor are often directly plundered by other animals, and they dare not say a word, mainly because they really don’t have enough strength.
So, when the hyenas came to grab the fruits of their labor, the working leopards didn't even dare to say a word and just moved out of the way.
They dared not vent their anger. Even though they were an alliance of three males, they could not defeat the huge group of hyenas. Those were all directors of the anorectal department, and their bite force was amazing. Don't underestimate the hyenas.
The three pitiful cheetahs could only squat on the side with grievance, watching the prey they had worked so hard to hunt being eaten up by the hyenas.
As soon as the hyenas started eating, several vultures came and watched them eagerly, waiting for the hyenas to finish eating so that they could pick up the leftovers.
The hyenas also hated the vultures and would stand up from time to time to chase them away. The vultures would then fly up and circle in the air. When the hyenas returned to eat the meat, they would turn back and continue to watch eagerly, as if to say, "I'm just going to watch you eat. Do you have the nerve to monopolize the prey?"
In fact, this happened during the rainy season. If it was the dry season, Ryan and Reiner would have gone forward directly, and the hyenas would have run away instantly. After all, these were two adult male lions. Then, the final winner would be the one at the top of the food chain - the lion, the king of the grassland.
Unfortunately, Ryan and Reiner had already eaten their fill by then, and there was no shortage of food, so they didn't bother to meddle.
Unlike the last time when he went to deal with Sister Sa and other lion groups fighting over food, Ryan didn't care at all about the food snatching by other species.
However, as a human being, Qiao Jinnian really dislikes other species bullying cheetahs.
Without thinking about the rules of the food chain, she thought, she should catch her own food. There are herbivores everywhere here. Does she have to steal the cheetah's food?
However, she was just a weak human cub and could not use human moral values to demand animals. She could only be secretly angry and feel sorry for the three working leopards.
The hyenas took a full hour to finish their meal, leaving behind some messy scraps. The group of about thirty vultures swooped down on these delicacies and shared all the remaining bones and meat scraps.
Seeing that there was nothing left, the three cheetahs had no choice but to lick their mouths and run back to where they came from helplessly.
Logically speaking, this is Ryan and Reiner's territory, and these carnivores should not appear on this grassland, but it seems that they only care about whether there are other lions on this grassland.
When passing Ryan, the three leopards deliberately took a longer detour, fearing that they would anger the two lions, as lions will eat cheetahs.
However, when the cheetahs saw her cub, they were curious and called out a few times from a distance: "Meow——"
Qiao Jinnian: "..."
The meowing sound is particularly inconsistent with their slender and muscular bodies, and is also very discordant with their ferocious appearance when hunting.
Qiao Jinnian took out a few pieces of barbecue from the leaves and threw them at them from a distance: "Awoo——"
The cheetah was frightened and thought she threw something, so it jumped back in reaction. When it found there was no danger, it came closer, smelled the pieces of meat, found they were edible, and ate them in one bite.
Qiao Jinnian had heard before that cheetahs were born wild cats that did not need to be tamed. They seemed to be very friendly and close to humans. Now it seemed to be true. Unlike other wild animals, cheetahs were really not afraid of humans.
Although she has a strong lion scent, it cannot conceal her nature as a biped.
After the cheetah finished eating, it called out to her again: "Meow, meow——"
"No, just go hunting." Qiao Jinnian said softly. Although she knew they didn't understand, it was a little kindness she showed them, to comfort their wounded hearts a little.
Reiner stared with his golden lion eyes, looking at the three carnivores and then at his own two-legged sister. He really couldn't understand what was going on.
If it were the dry season and food was scarce, Reiner might have eaten the cheetah directly. Now, he was too full and had no strength to hunt.
For Ryan, Qiao Jinnian often does these strange things. She can communicate with almost any animal and has inexplicable kindness towards any animal.
Perhaps thinking of something, Ryan suddenly stood up, walked to Qiao Jinnian, and yelled at Reiner a few times. Then Reiner ran over happily and lay down in front of her.
Qiao Jinnian: "..." Did the lion father finally let the lion brother carry her?
Without thinking too much, she just rode on the back of her lion brother.
Ryan led the way, and Reiner followed behind with his sister on his back.
Then, they saw the smallest fawn eating grass. Ryan lowered his body and slowly approached the prey. Then he rushed at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour and grabbed the deer's throat. The deer didn't even have time to react before being pressed to the grass by the huge lion's body, unable to resist at all.
Qiao Jinnian was still wondering why Ryan wanted to go hunting even though he was full.
As a result, the next second, Ryan climbed up again and let the deer run away.
When the fawn was hit, it thought it was dead today. However, the lion did not bite its neck, but let it get up. The fawn could not believe that it could escape death. The huge desire to survive prompted it to run towards the herd of fawns.
Afterwards, Ryan turned around and looked at Qiao Jinnian, as if asking her, "Did you see my hunting posture clearly? Now try it."
Qiao Jinnian: "..." No, she's only a year old. You let a one-year-old human cub hunt? Are you serious?
Although she can run now, have you ever seen a child who runs unsteadily and on tiptoe? Can she outrun such a fast deer?
She probably couldn't even catch a rabbit.
However, the lion father personally demonstrated how to hunt. Even though Qiao Jinnian knew that she would fail in the end and it would be very embarrassing, she could not let the lion father down.
Ryan would deliberately let Reiner hunt to practice her skills. He also knew that although she was small, she could hunt in those strange methods. But the lion father was teaching her cooking skills, so she must study hard.
So she climbed down from her brother, lay on the ground, slowly crawled across the grass, and crawled towards the herd of deer. When she was less than 10 meters away from them, she suddenly stood up and rushed towards the herd of deer.
But she was too slow. When the deer saw her running towards them, they quickly ran away. Some of them even ignored her. Who knew what species she was and why she suddenly went crazy towards them?
However, when the deer that ignored him smelled the scent of the lion, they quickly ran away for their lives.
Qiao Jinnian couldn't outrun the deer at all. The scene was too funny, as if a child deliberately jumped out to scare people, but achieved nothing except causing panic.
The little deer ran away completely. Qiao Jinnian looked back helplessly and looked at the lion father with a look of grievance on her face. Oh, she ran too slowly.
In fact, if she had a weapon, such as her spear, it could help her hunt. Unfortunately, she didn't bring it with her this time. She couldn't learn Ryan's hunting skills at all because she didn't have sharp teeth and claws.
She did this just to show Ryan that she couldn't do it.
Ryan lay on the ground, making angry "huffing" sounds from his mouth, as if scolding her for being useless.
She didn't care. She ran up and hugged his mane and rubbed it hard. She lay on his big paws and burrowed into the mane. Even though the angry sound in the lion father's throat became louder and his mouth was completely wide open, Qiao Jinnian ignored it. He was angry, so what? Could he eat her?
Facts have proved that the lion father is a typical person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He has a bad temper but a warm heart. He really raises her as his daughter.
Reiner was also speechless. He didn't expect that this sister was so useless. It seemed that she had no ability to protect herself. She was obviously quite tall when she stood up.
Yes, standing up, Qiao Jinnian could be considered a large animal. Compared to a lion, he'd probably be about the same height as a lioness at the shoulder. But that's shoulder height. Humans stand up, so how can we compare? It's a pity that animals don't understand this difference; they simply judge size by height, which is frustrating.
Ryan lay on the ground with his mouth wide open, pretending to bite each other with Qiao Jinnian. This was a kind of fighting game between lions, a game for the little lions to improve their hunting skills. They bit each other and pounced on each other with their claws.
However, Qiao Jinnian noticed that Ryan had retracted all his claws to avoid hurting her.
Reiner was itching to do it, so he pounced on her, ready to start a game of biting. However, Ryan didn't want to do it, so he rushed over and yelled at Reiner: "Roar--"
Reiner, such a big lion, was frightened and trembled. He huddled pitifully to one side and squatted on the ground, blinking his eyes, but he didn't dare to look into the eyes of the lion father. Even his ears were pulled back and his eyes were narrowed, looking at the grassland on the other side.
Qiao Jinnian: "..." Ah, Brother Lion is a little pitiful...
