45 Guinea fowl
◎The chicken thief actually let out a soft and cute "meow".◎
Qiao Jinnian found Sister Sa, pulled her towards the bushes, and gestured that she was going to find the mother of the three female lions.
At this moment, Sister Sa looked at her as if she were a fool.
However, Sister Sa did not object, and her attitude towards this strange cub was now casual.
After all, Sister Sa is not her lion mother, but she is very indulgent to her and basically will not reject her requests.
Maybe Sister Sa was also helpless. After all, she always felt that she had four cubs, so she was more willing to give more for the lion group.
Qiao Jinnian hugged her head and touched foreheads against hers to express his gratitude.
But she didn't ride on Sister Sa's back, mainly because Sister Sa was not her mother, so it would be impolite to ride on her.
She didn't want to ride it and just planned to walk there with Sister Sa. Unfortunately, her walking speed was too slow. Humans can only run at more than 20 kilometers per hour, which is nothing compared to the lion's speed of 80 kilometers per hour.
So, she received an expressionless contempt from Sister Sa.
Well, actually Sister Sa is usually very serious. This is just a look of contempt that Qiao Jinnian imagined.
In the end, Qiao Jinnian was helpless. After Sister Sa lay down, she consciously climbed onto Sister Sa's back.
Sister Sa is slightly shorter and thinner than Reiner, but compared to other lionesses, her body shape shows that she is a leader.
When the three female lions saw Sister Sa from afar and saw the strange cub, they roared a few times to drive it away.
But Sister Sa also roared a few times in a low voice, indicating that they had something to do.
The three female lions were obviously in good tempers. There were no male lions in this territory, and these were lions from the neighboring lion group. They were not here to steal the territory, so they did not object.
Everyone was living in peace. Seeing that no lion was angry, Qiao Jinnian took out all the bread crusts in his backpack and handed them to the lioness to see.
A slightly larger lioness took a step forward to show that she was the leader. When she saw the strange plant, she stretched out her claws to test it and tilted her head to look at her, not knowing what she was doing.
Qiao Jinnian pointed at the bread crust, then at the riverbank and said, "Awooo--"
She imitated the voice of a cub to show her closeness, although she stood very tall now and did not look like a cub at all.
The lioness was confused, but she knew that the cub had no ill intentions, so she ignored her.
Seeing that no lion objected, Qiao Jinnian slowly walked towards the river. In front of all the lions, she scooped some water from the river. In total, she only scooped enough water for two bread crusts. Who told her to only take two?
After scooping up the water, she brought two full bread crusts and placed them in front of the leader, indicating that she was only there to scoop up water and not to harm her cubs.
No words are more convincing than actual actions.
The three female lions immediately let down their guard and lay down under the tree to rest without any care.
Only then did Qiao Jinnian ride on Sister Sa's back and prepare to go back.
After returning to the lion group's territory, Qiao Jinnian finally breathed a sigh of relief. God knows how nervous she was just now, her back was sweating.
After getting the water, she quickly took Reiner to water the tuber field.
Now that it’s good, there will be a second time after the first time. Qiao Jinnian believes that as long as the three female lions know what she is going to do, they will not be too sensitive.
Just look at Diandian, who was also on the grassland and was not driven away by them. It can be seen that they are just a little sensitive to the male lions now, and do not regard the grassland as their territory.
So, the second time, Qiao Jinnian didn't need Sister Sa to accompany her, she took Reiner with her.
She still valued her life very much, but she didn't dare go alone. Although the other party was a lioness, she generally would not eat the cubs of other lion groups, but what if?
When Reiner came, the lionesses also issued warning sounds, but because they saw Qiao Jinnian again and saw that she was holding the strange plant shell again, they did not react too much.
Qiao Jinnian was happy now, as she finally achieved freedom in the river.
Now that she had some free time, she remembered that she had dug a trap some time ago and had never checked it, so she took Reiner, Cloak and Silverback to check it out.
Unexpectedly, there were two pheasants caught in the trap. They were not dead, but just dying. They flapped their wings at the bottom of the pit and could not fly.
Well, Qiao Jinnian caught these pheasants with white spots on their heads, tied their legs, and tied them to the big tree where Ryan and the others were resting, and then they would eat them when the lions were hungry.
Unfortunately, neither Ryan, Sister Sa nor Reiner even touched the two pheasants.
Qiao Jinnian thought that maybe pheasants had more feathers than meat, so they didn't like them. Besides, their lion group was small in number, and their parents were very supportive, so they really didn't lack food.
However, Qiao Jinnian didn't want to eat it either, because she didn't know how to handle chicken feathers and had never cooked in her previous life.
The thought of plucking their feathers made her feel overwhelmed, so she tied them to a tree and let them find food on the ground by themselves.
Originally, these two pheasants were very afraid of the big lion. This was the fear of wild beasts that was engraved in their genes.
However, the lions here had not eaten them for so many days, so they were no longer afraid. Apart from being tied up, their lives were no different from their usual lives, and they continued to look for small insects to eat on the ground as usual.
When the meerkats saw their new neighbor, they ran over to play with the pheasant, but it was obviously not food for them, so they continued to dig in the soil to find food.
These meerkats are very vulnerable to hunger. They will feel very hungry if they don’t eat for a day, so they dig all day long, and there is always a meerkat standing guard.
After several days, Sa Dadan ran over to show his sister with an egg in his mouth.
However, this was the first time that Sa Dadan had seen a species lay eggs, and he accidentally bit the egg to pieces, causing the egg liquid to flow out of his mouth and all over the place.
Sa Dadan was frightened and looked at his sister innocently with his clear big eyes, because everyone knew that the two pheasants here belonged to his sister, and that was why his parents didn't eat pheasants.
But now he has bitten his sister's eggs into pieces!
Qiao Jinnian had no idea what he was thinking. When she saw the egg in his mouth, she suddenly realized, oh my god, those two pheasants can lay eggs!
Her diet has expanded! Eggs, they are so nutritious!
She licked Sa Dadan's head, which made the other three unhappy, and they also ran over to let their sister stroke them.
So, Qiao Jinnian had no choice but to stroke them one by one to show closeness, and patted Sa's bold big mouth, indicating that he could eat as much as he wanted.
The brave brother finally swallowed the egg raw without even spitting out the eggshell.
Qiao Jinnian: "..."
So, Qiao Jinnian got a new job, which was to make a chicken coop for pheasants, preparing to raise them and let them lay eggs.
In fact, she had some suspicions that one was a rooster and the other was a hen. Although there was not much difference between the two, who knew? Anyway, one of them could lay eggs. She would know slowly.
This is a big project. Qiao Jinnian first needs to find suitable wood and build a chicken coop for these pheasants based on his imagination. Of course, he will still let them forage for food on the grass and sleep in the chicken coop at night.
Taking Reiner with her, Qiao Jinnian ran all over the territory and found some relatively resilient wood. She woven it like a bag, crisscrossing it horizontally and vertically. It took her several days to build a very simple chicken coop. After all, she had no nails and could not use wood, so she could only use this kind of wood.
Put one of the chickens in the chicken coop and see the effect first.
As a result, as soon as the pheasant flew slightly, the chicken coop could no longer stand and moved along with it. It was still too light.
So, Qiao Jinnian went to the river and found a lot of big stones to press on the four corners of the cage to prevent the cage from moving too much.
In short, this is an extremely simple chicken coop, but it will work.
At night, Qiao Jinnian locked the two pheasants in to sleep.
She always slept well and didn't know whether the two pheasants had made any noise, but when she woke up the next day, she found that the chicken coop had moved about one meter away.
Qiao Jinnian: "..."
She had to put the two pheasants in the chicken coop because other predators might be attracted and eat them directly.
During the day, the lions sleep here. Which animal would be so foolish as to come here and eat the pheasants?
Gradually, the two pheasants settled here and seemed to have gotten used to it.
Qiao Jinnian looked at the pheasants eating insects and making "clucking" sounds, and she actually felt like she had returned to human society.
Haha, she is like a wild person now. She has already raised chickens and has eggs to eat every day. They are high-quality free-range chickens. So, now she is still short of a puppy. Otherwise, how about catching a wild dog puppy, taming it, and turning it into her own hunting dog?
Of course, Qiao Jinnian was just imagining it in her mind. Wild dogs are known as the third brothers of the grassland. They are particularly good at teamwork and their hunting efficiency is much higher than that of lions. They are very ferocious, so she dare not raise them.
During the day, she thought of training a wild dog pup to be a hunting dog, but at night she was woken up by the screams of pheasants in the chicken coop.
Fortunately, when Ryan and Sister Sa went hunting, Reiner was lying with her, so Reiner caught the chicken thief in the first place.
Just when Reiner was about to kill the chicken thief with one bite, the chicken thief actually let out a soft and cute "meow".
Qiao Jinnian: “…” How could there be cats on the grassland?
Although cheetahs also meow, it is very different from the sound of domestic cats. This sound is clearly the sound of a human pet cat.
"Roar--" Qiao Jinnian stopped Brother Lion in time and told him not to bite the chicken thief to death.
She leaned in closer to take a look. Next to the chicken coop was a kitten that was smaller than a domestic cat. A kitten?
Because it was the middle of the night, Qiao Jinnian couldn't see the patterns on the cat's body clearly, but it was clearly a cat!
But how could there be cats on the grassland? That doesn't make sense!
Qiao Jinnian picked up the cat in her hands. He was really small and could lie in her hands. He was not heavy and super cute. His glass eyes reflected a beautiful luster in the moonlight, making him look soft, cute and amiable.
So, what kind of cat is this? Is it a wild cat that has never been domesticated by humans?
Anyway, it was just a little cat, so Qiao Jinnian didn't take it seriously. After comforting Pheasant, she hugged the cat and went back to sleep.
This cat is really brave. It lies next to the lion and is not afraid at all!
