Chapter 265 The Lost Mother's Love
However, no matter how or at what angle Xishan approached the cub, the cub would just tilt its head and make humming sounds, but would not open its mouth.
Si Ran was shocked by the desert lion's bravery in raising its cubs.
"Xishan, listen to me first." Si Ran said, "Give this piece of beef to the other elderly desert lions."
"But if the cub doesn't eat, it will die."
Si Ran showed Xishan the baby desert lion's baby teeth and said helplessly, "But it only has these few teeth now, and they're not sharp. It can't eat beef, let alone seagull meat."
There are so few desert lion cubs that they lack memory in this area and do not know when they should be fed milk and when they should eat meat.
The little guy is so hungry that his chest is sticking to his back. What he needs now is milk, not beef.
"Qingyue, please go back to the car and get some goat milk powder."
Ruan Qingyue nodded immediately and returned to the car.
As for the local police and mercenaries nearby, they have already started setting up tents.
They are complete outsiders when it comes to rescue, and Si Ran doesn't need their help, so everyone revolves around Si Ran and listens to him in everything.
Ruan Qingyue obeyed blindly, and in less than three minutes, the goat milk powder was ready.
The desert lion cub, who was originally playing badly, smelled the aroma of milk and started to drink from the bottle. After a while, his shriveled belly became round and his mental state improved visibly.
Si Ran wiped the mucus off the desert lion cub's eyes with a wet tissue and found that the desert lion cub actually had a very rare heterochromia.
However, its eyes were a little inflamed, and there were no eye drops in the medical equipment. Fortunately, someone had them. Si Ran first put two drops on the little guy and planned to wait until the next day to see if it had any effect.
After checking the physical condition of these desert lions, Si Ran began to arrange their destination.
Si Ran found the person in charge who had come with the local police and said, "It's not safe to leave the desert tonight. Tomorrow morning, the police will take these desert lions to the protected area arranged by your police. The rest of you will start searching for Besha tonight and won't leave the desert until you run out of supplies."
Si Ran was worried that the tribes in Xishan might be hostile to humans, so she said, "You guys should behave well. I can assure you that these people will never harm you. Once I find Beisha, I will come and solve the problem of your survival territory. Please trust me, okay?"
A group of lions surrounded Si Ran.
If it were anyone else, they would probably be scared to death by being stared at by those huge beasts with sharp teeth, but Si Ran was different.
When these animals appeared in front of Si Ran, they added a touch of mystery to Si Ran.
Xishan knew clearly what Si Ran was worried about, so he said, "Ranran, don't worry, I will take good care of them. We will wait for you to come back."
If they still had doubts before, all the dissatisfaction among the lion group disappeared at that moment since Si Ran really gave them enough beef and helped raise the cubs.
Even the desert lion cub, which had recovered its strength, stumbled over and hugged Si Ran's feet, saying, "Mom, I'll wait for you to come back!"
Si Ran was stunned when he was suddenly hugged by the little guy.
When Si Ran heard what the desert lion cub said, the corners of his mouth twitched and he looked at the cub's biological mother next to him.
However, the mother acted as if she didn't hear it, and even looked at her baby with an encouraging look, as if to say: Baby, that's right, that's how you call it!
Si Ran:......
Ji Zhishi, who was standing next to him, saw Si Ran's strange expression and couldn't help asking, "Sister Xiao Ran, what's wrong?"
After saying this, Ji Zhishi thought of all the cubs unanimously recognizing Si Ran as their mother, and suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched wildly: "Sister Xiao Ran, it can't be this cub..."
Do you recognize me as your mother?
However, before he could finish his words, Ji Zhishi heard the little guy beside Si Ran's legs meow twice.
Forget it, there’s no need to translate. Ji Zhishi was absolutely sure that this little guy really regarded Si Ran as his biological mother.
Lin Suiye couldn't help but laugh and said, "Once Xiaoran comes out, all the sons and daughters can be gathered together to become heroes of Liangshan."
Si Ran: "..."
She really didn't expect it.
I don’t know if it’s because of the system, but male wild animals always want to be the husband. When the cubs see them, they call them mom, and even female animals ask them if they want to be together.
Si Ran chuckled twice, picked up the cub and returned it to its mother next to it.
When the female desert lion saw Si Ran return the cub, her face was full of regret.
It said, "Ranran, how about I give the baby to you? I really don't want it anymore."
The cub nodded frantically: "It just so happens that I don't want my mother anymore."
Ever since the cub was able to think independently, it has often wondered what sins it had committed in its previous life that it ended up becoming a desert lion in this life.
It sounds impressive, but in reality, it's not as comfortable as the cattle and horses on the grassland.
When it was born, it had three brothers and sisters. However, the lioness was inexperienced and sat on all of them to death, leaving it as the only cub left.
Of course, the only child is not much better off.
On the third day after it was born, humans came. Its mother forgot about giving birth to a cub and ran away when she heard the gunshots. After running for an unknown amount of time, she probably suddenly remembered that she had a baby and ran back crying.
It successfully saved its life.
Then it began its wandering life again. In short, it was normal for it to go hungry for eight meals in three days while following its mother.
Later, they encountered desert lions gathered together. Since the Xishan tribe leader was not a smart lion, he went from being hungry for eight meals in three days to being hungry for nine meals in three days.
The only reason it can survive until now is because of its good luck.
It can be said that the milk Si Ran just gave it was the most satisfying it had ever eaten in its short life.
Now its mother doesn't want to raise the child, and it just so happens that it is planning to change its mother.
The little guy immediately depended on Si Ran and kept calling her "Mommy".
His biological mother was still cheering him on: "Son, you're doing great. Hurry up and let Ranran take you in. It's really too much effort to raise you! Mom really can't take care of you anymore. Find yourself a new mother!"
After saying that, it turned around and left without any regrets.
Just abandoning his own cubs.
Everyone: ???
Si Ran:......
This mother and daughter opened Si Ran's eyes and once again proved that desert lions cannot raise cubs.
This person not only doesn't know how to raise a cub, he even wants to throw it away!
Ji Zhishi: "The mother doesn't want the cub anymore? What should we do now?"
Si Ran: "...Not only does he not want the cub anymore, the cub doesn't want its mother either."
