Chapter 75 Kruger Lion (Twenty-two)
Yu Yiyun, who "wins by having more flesh", had her right front paw penetrated by Ochi's seven-centimeter-long canine teeth on the inner shoulder, but miraculously, no bones were injured.
Fortunately, pigs usually eat a lot, are fat and strong, and their subcutaneous fat can protect their bones and internal organs in all directions.
The "fragile" pig had a large wound and several small wounds on its body. It walked with a limp in pain, meowing miserably as it walked.
"Meow..." It hurts...
The following cat, Mao Chong Chou Chou, was quickly attracted over and found that his brother had suffered unprecedented "serious injuries". He was so angry that he spread his claws and prepared to settle the score with the enemy beast.
When he ran to the grove, he saw the enemy beast lying there quietly, already stiff.
Chouchou retracted his claws angrily and turned around silently.
Having been influenced by his brother for many years, Chouchou will not eat the dead of his own kind even if the meat he eats is heavily carrion.
Returning to his brother's side, Chouchou was about to help Zhumi lick his wounds, but he found...
I can't squeeze in.
After Ochi attacked the East Coast lion group, he was injured and didn't get far.
This area is close to the Lower East Coast territory, and just now the roars of the lions fighting were deafening.
The queen lion soon realized that the little white lion had taken the initiative to fight with Ochi, so she brought the capable female lions to help.
When we arrived at the crime scene, the fight was already over.
Sanmao and the professor were equally injured. They proudly wagged their tails and couldn't wait to return to their own lion group.
Generally speaking, female lions will not provide food to defeated male lions.
If a male lion is injured while protecting his family, his partner will be happy to take care of him, and this may even deepen the couple's relationship to a certain extent.
Yu Yijun looked at their receding backs with envy, and meowed even more miserably.
No wonder male lions on the prairie are willing to risk their lives to fight for territory and lionesses.
Look at them, when they get injured in a fight, they have lions to take care of them, unlike them who are helpless... uh.
While Yu Yiyun was feeling sorry for herself, the lionesses from the lower east coast arrived one after another. After confirming that Aoqi was no longer a threat to them, the young lionesses surrounded Zhu Mi and fed the reserve lion king with meat in their mouths.
The older lionesses gathered around the queen and praised her for her good taste.
Over a year ago, the queen lion showed interest in a white lion cub and her lioness sisters thought she was crazy.
Even if there are no good male lions on the grassland, there is no need to start training lions from such young ages, right?
Now it seems that the queen is worthy of being the queen!
After a while, the three surviving lions on the lower east bank came over, dragging their injured bodies.
It was discovered that the lionesses were busy taking care of another injured sub-adult male lion, and the expressions of the three male lions were more complicated than each other.
Over the years, they formed an alliance with their father and eldest brother, enjoying the food brought back by the lioness, and their lives were very comfortable.
Now that her father and elder brother are dead, the lioness prefers the white lion.
The lion, injured and almost unable to hunt, didn't know where to go.
Normally, they should drive away the white lion and assert their ownership of the lioness.
However, the male lion on the upper east coast was injured by Ochi's claws a few days ago, and the white lion bit Ochi to death.
At this moment, they are in no position to drive away the foreign lions.
Even if the expulsion is really carried out, it may not be successful.
If the white lion becomes the new lion king...
The male lion on the lower east coast was frightened when he thought about the consequences of being expelled from the lion group.
Finally, a slick opportunist took the lead in walking up to Yu Yijun and leaned over to show his goodwill to him.
Lions also have a herd mentality, and the other two brothers who were also injured and needed the care of the lioness followed closely.
They all expressed their willingness to form an alliance with Yu Yijun and make him the dominant lion in the lower east coast.
"…Meow?"
Yu Yijun was startled when she saw them coming, thinking that this group of lions were going to "take advantage of my illness to kill me".
Just when I was about to scold them for being insidious, I saw the lions lying down one after another, and the main character was able to bend and stretch.
Pig thought for two minutes.
I thought for another three minutes.
Frankly speaking, although I don't like the East Coast lions very much, overall, they are responsible as lords and protected the lion group in times of crisis.
Now, the lion group on the upper east coast has suffered a heavy blow. If the lord lion is driven away at this time, it will definitely cause greater chaos.
In addition, Yu Yiyun has her own considerations.
At present, of the large lion groups living on the ∩-shaped riverbank, except for the upper west bank lion group which is naturally isolated from other lion groups due to its terrain advantage, the rest of the lion groups either have no lion king or have the bloodline of Lion King Ryan as the lion king.
If this continues...
The next generation of lion cubs born will all be brothers and sisters within the fifth degree of generation, which is not conducive to the continuation of genes.
Yu Yiyun looked at the three lions who had no lofty ambitions and seemed to just want to live a good life, and a very bad idea came to her mind:
Male lions are just tool cats for reproduction.
Although they have the bad habit of domestic violence, it can be slowly corrected later.
After careful consideration, Yu Yiyun agreed to let them stay with the lion group.
He made his decision and made friendly noises to the three lions, then he realized something was wrong.
etc!
When will it be my turn to make this decision?
I'm not a lion from the East Coast!
Piglet reacted belatedly, and when he looked up, he met the Lion Queen's deep golden eyes, which seemed to say "Just try and regret it if you dare."
The timid little white lion was so scared that he retracted his claws to distance himself from the matter and opened his mouth to take the meat fed by the lioness.
It seemed that he had unknowingly become the lord lion of the upper east coast, making Piglet extremely confused.
Before he could figure out what was going on, a larger Shura field appeared.
The lions of the South Bank, who also heard the noise and smelled the blood, rushed over with their little lions and found...
The male lion that we had reserved has been surrounded by young beautiful lions.
Although male lions are just tool cats for female lions to reproduce offspring.
But the South Bank lioness was still furious because her tools were snatched away by other beasts, and she was about to fall into a Shura field.
Yu Yijun realized that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, and he lay there pitifully, making weak cries and pretending to roll over twice.
"Meow!" The wound hurts so much!
"Meow, meow, meow..." Considering that I'm so badly injured, will you please let me go?
After howling twice, Chou Chou and Tiezhu, who had been silently guarding nearby, immediately pushed aside the other lionesses and went over to comfort their injured companion.
"Miya?" Why didn't you call me when you had a group fight? I could get hurt for you!
"Roar!" He didn't even call me!
“…Meow!” Get out!
The piglet howled uncontrollably.
Why are there things wrong with the male and female lions around me?
In order to concentrate on healing his injuries, Yu Yiyun took advantage of everyone's inattention and limped back downstream to the hidden sand dunes at the end of the river.
I thought this place was sparsely visited by animals and I could sleep peacefully.
But as soon as I lay down, I heard the sound of a clamp.
"Meow?"
Dian Guang, who was busy teaching the cubs to hunt, smelled a familiar scent and immediately stopped hunting and rushed over.
Seven one-year-old cheetah cubs, now with long legs, lined up and followed their mother.
Logically speaking, cheetahs are relatively independent.
A one-year-old cheetah already has the ability to explore the world on its own and will soon be separated from its mother.
Perhaps because these little cheetahs grew up drinking lion milk, they were infected with the mama's boy gene.
Even when it grows to be as big as its mother, it still needs to stay by its mother's side all the time to provide Dian Guang with sufficient cub-raising experience.
Dian Guang has a very strong maternal instinct. Even though she has seven babies, she still cares about the lion cubs that are not related to her by blood.
Smelling the wounded lion cub, Dian Guang became extremely worried, staring at his wound with his cat eyes.
"Meow, meow, meow~"
Yu Yijun originally intended to comfort Baobao, but his natural mama's boy nature made him unable to help but act coquettishly as soon as he opened his mouth.
Dian Guang immediately came over and rubbed against the lion cub, which weighed more than five times as much as himself.
The other leopards that followed closely behind couldn't wait to come over and get close to it, making the leopard that was patrolling its territory in the distance look extremely messy.
After so many times, the leopard even started to suspect: Is it because I am not very sociable that other cats don’t want to play with me?
Although Yu Yiyun's wound did not injure the bones, the bite was too deep and it was prone to inflammation in the summer, so her recovery was slow.
In order to make his wound heal as quickly as possible, he found a termite mound that could protect him from the sun and moisture, and hid in it. He ate meat three times a day to supplement his nutrition.
——It’s not that the piglet wants to eat so much.
After he was injured, lions from the three lion groups on the inner bank of the river came to bring him food every day, and he could not miss any of them.
During the recovery period, Zhumi's exercise volume was greatly reduced. Looking at his increasingly round waist, he first thought of losing weight.
I can’t eat anymore!
I can’t eat another bite!
Fortunately, before Zhumi stretched himself into a 'pig Zhumi', the minor injuries on his body were completely healed, and the major wounds did not affect his activities.
He left the termite mound where he was recuperating, and as a reward, he treated the pangolin that came to look for food as a ball and kicked it all the way back to his own territory.
Pangolin: I [beep——]
The return of the white lion became one of the few happy things for the lion group.
This year, precipitation in the savanna region has been exceptionally scarce.
For the entire six months starting from January, the precipitation was only about 20 ml.
In August, just halfway through the dry season, the downstream riverbanks had already dried up and stopped flowing.
According to this trend, the middle reaches of the river will definitely dry up, the vegetation on both sides will die, and both herbivores and carnivores will starve.
Even if the flow upstream continues, the intensive migration of animals will lead to increased competition for survival.
The lions realized that a severe drought was coming.
They couldn't think of a better way except to eat more meals while there was still prey.
At the same time, the African elephants, aware of the crisis, planned to leave early.
Yu Yiyun noticed that the African elephants scattered on both sides of the ∩-shaped river channel all gathered together, and guessed that they were preparing to set off.
However, he was unable to convey the message to the lions that they could find new habitats by following the elephants.
He could only give it a try and invite Tommy to follow him.
Tommy rubbed his son's head and refused helplessly.
He has two litters of cubs to raise and cannot leave the lion group for the time being.
The professor and Sanmao encountered the same situation.
However, the prince, having experience in taking care of cubs while traveling, decided to go with them.
Even so, the number of lions willing to migrate is too small to reduce the survival pressure around the river.
Yu Yiyun walked out of the territory dejectedly, wondering if there was any way to get more lions to change their behavior habits.
Before he could come up with a solution, he looked up and found a large group of lions waiting in front of him.
The lions didn't know where the white lion was going.
But just like the Ryan family was willing to pursue the Lion King 20 years ago, they are also willing to believe that -
The new Lion King will lead them to find new life.
