The three little foxes were held in their mother's arms, lying quietly against her chest with lazy expressions on their faces.
The three of them all had their little ears erected, and they seemed to be completely unaware of the danger around them. They just nestled sweetly in their mother's arms, occasionally raising their furry little heads to look at the surroundings, without a worry in their eyes.
Qin Ling kept walking forward, his eyes fixed on the front, not even looking around.
The monsters following behind them like prey like them who just rush forward without caring about anything.
They have no sense of precaution and have no idea how many dangers are lurking around them.
The predator behind them bared its fangs at Qin Ling and the others.
Smelly saliva was already flowing from his mouth, and he stared at Qin Ling and the little foxes with greedy eyes.
"Mother."
Li Li's voice was very small, with only a slight breath.
"It actually wants to eat me!"
Li Li had just glanced back quietly, and saw a big wild boar and a bison following them.
The wild boars and bison here are very different from the wild boars and bison in the future.
They are larger in size and have a more noticeable unpleasant odor.
But Li Li and the others didn't mind it. They had eaten the wild boar meat that Lauda brought to Qinling yesterday. It must be said that the texture and taste of the meat were really different.
It tastes especially delicious.
"I'm going to eat it later! Hehehe."
A sly smile appeared on Li Li's adorable little face.
His fox eyes are not as narrow and long as those of grown-up foxes.
The two brothers Li Li and Chong Ye Chong Tong have round eyes, which are very cute.
They don't look like fox eyes.
On the contrary, the little foxes in the tribe are born with narrow and squinting fox eyes.
Only the three raised in Qinling seem to be out of species.
But it becomes particularly cute after looking at it for a long time.
Every time Hongzhi and Laoda entered Qinling's house, the first person they called was Li Li, and then they hugged the other two little foxes, and only then they had time to talk to Qinling.
Because they come so often, the two little white balls have become familiar with them and are not so resistant to their requests for hugs. Only the little straight boy Li Li doesn't like being hugged by any fox other than his mother.
He always tried his best to avoid any contact with these fox uncles who would not let go of the little foxes once they held them.
It was because of Li Li's double standard behavior that the two White Fox brothers were gradually taken seriously by Lauda and others.
Chongtong Chongye is a little quieter than Li Li.
Chongtong often runs behind Li Li.
Normally, Chongye would not resist when they held her in their arms, which really made them enjoy it.
As soon as Chongye arrived in their arms, she was like a beautiful little kitten kept in captivity, and she spontaneously found a very comfortable position in their arms and nestled there.
There will be no unnecessary movements at all.
Sometimes the conversations between the big foxes would last for a long time, and the other little foxes would have gone off to play somewhere else. Only the well-behaved Chongye was still curled up on the big fox, curled up his little body.
When I am sleepy, I will squint my eyes, open my mouth and yawn. There will be little tears under my cute eyes because of yawning.
Then lie down and find a suitable sleeping position.
At this time, the big foxes' voices would unconsciously become lower.
They seemed to be talking, but part of their attention was on Chongye.
I was afraid that my voice was too loud and would wake Chong Ye up.
Don't take Ye's size and current age seriously, but he is very good at judging the situation.
He is more delicate than Li Li and Chong Tong.
If their family of four wanted to survive in this tribe, the most important supporter was Lauda, followed by Lauda's brothers.
So every time they come, Chongye doesn't stick to his mother, but as long as they want to be close to him, he will definitely satisfy them.
Let these big foxes enjoy being relied upon by the little foxes.
Let them enjoy this feeling completely.
Chongye is a small white ball, and its pure white color is particularly noticeable against the brightly furred body of the red fox.
He is exceptionally light, like the snowflakes falling from the sky during a cold wave, making him particularly precious.
In this way, the always quiet Chongye defeated his lively and active younger brother and became the second favorite little fox in the hearts of these big red foxes.
The big foxes’ first favorite is still Li Li.
Li Li was born a red fox like them, although Li Li didn't like them very much.
Zhongye reminded Li Li, "Shh, keep your voice down."
Li Li closed her mouth.
The prey behind them was already getting restless, and the foxes' pointed and sensitive ears had already heard their overly excited footsteps.
These preys have been confused by the "prey" that seems to be within their reach. They cannot think about why the big fox in front of them is hunting alone, why there are no other foxes to take care of these cubs, and why they have to do it all by themselves.
They never thought that it might be because Qinling was too strong, or that all of them, including the cubs, were very strong.
The footsteps behind him suddenly quickened, and this time he did not choose to hide behind and make his footsteps light, but instead rushed directly behind them.
If Qin Ling and his children were really what they thought, they had lost contact with the other foxes in the group.
At this moment, the red fox should be in a panic and have no idea where to go.
Instead of just standing there, going nowhere, and not reacting at all.
The attacks of bison and wild boars were even more fierce.
They are usually hunted by these foxes, but today they can finally have a chance to show off.
But before they could run behind Qinling, two furry balls suddenly jumped out.
One is red, and the other is white like snow.
The two little creatures were extremely fast and stretched out their claws straight towards the fragile eyes of their prey.
The wild boar and bison were unable to dodge in time and were caught by the two little foxes.
They howled in pain.
Li Li and Chong Tong completed their tasks, immediately fell to the ground, and ran to the side, away from the battlefield.
They rely on their small size to surprise their prey.
But they are indeed too small now and cannot hunt directly like their mother.
The final finishing work can only be left to my mother.
Lauda, Raul and others ran here in a hurry.
They were thinking of going to Qinling earlier today to call for help. After all, hunting requires a good time. If they go earlier, some prey will come out to be hunted.
But when they arrived at Qinling's house, they only saw red moles and little red foxes crawling all over the floor.
Thanks to Qin Ling's care, the seventeen little foxes are now growing and developing very well. If nothing unexpected happens, these little foxes will grow up soon.
And nearly a dozen of them have opened their eyes.
The lanugo hair on all the little foxes has grown almost the same.
In another day or two, all these little foxes will be able to open their eyes.
Then, when the cubs are weaned, the older foxes in the tribe who don’t have children can come and adopt the cubs.
Basically, as long as they are not busy, they will come to Qinling's house almost every day to check in and see their children.
But today their attention was clearly not on the cubs.
"What about Qinling?"
Raul asked the red mole beside him.
After Qinling left, Hongzhi became the second fox cub.
There were several big little foxes crawling on his body.
"He's out hunting."
"So early? He won't wait for us?"
Red Mole looked past them and saw her husband.
Her husband's health has recovered a lot now, and because of what she said yesterday, he has more confidence.
Today I feel more energetic.
"He wanted to wait for you, but Li Li and the others didn't want to. They said that if Qin Ling stayed with you, he would get less, so Li Li and the others pestered Qin Ling to leave first."
Red Mole tells the truth without exaggeration.
She directly told Raul and the others what Li Li had said to her.
Raul became a little anxious when he heard this.
"Oh, Qin Ling really is. As soon as Li Li told him to leave, he really left."
"We just agreed to go together yesterday."
"Besides, the children are so young. Isn't Qin Ling worried about their safety?"
Raul became more and more worried as he spoke.
The big foxes around him heard what he said, and each of them showed an expression of disapproval on their face.
"Yes, cubs are very precious."
"He took away three cubs. He's a male fox. Even if he's good at taking care of children, can he take care of three children?"
The captain of the hunting team couldn't help but question.
He has never seen the Qinling Mountains.
I have only heard of the existence of Qinling Mountains.
His children were among these seventeen little fox cubs, but he had never had the time to come and see them before.
At first, it was the female foxes in the tribe’s nursery who said they couldn’t watch it.
It is said that male foxes run around outside all day and are covered in dirt, and if they get close to the cubs, something bad will happen to them.
This has happened before.
His brother didn't listen to the female foxes and sneaked in when they were having lunch and saw their skinny cubs. But before he could touch them, he was caught by the female foxes who had just returned from their meal.
Keep trying to get him out.
His brother later hurried out, and as a result, his child died that night.
This incident left a very deep impression on the other single male foxes.
His friend almost went with the little fox.
His child was the last thought his wife left him, but because of his selfish desire to visit his child, the little baby was gone.
The captain of the hunting team was still frightened, so he took the other party out hunting to distract the other party's attention, which allowed the other party to regain some consciousness.
They had heard some rumors that the tribe's nursery was being disbanded.
That day, they came back with their prey and when they entered the leader's house, they heard the crying of a female fox inside.
Only then did they realize that the nursery had been disbanded.
Now all the little foxes are raised by a male fox.
The team members who had little foxes in the nursery cried out on the spot, asking the leader how could he do this.
The leader did not answer their questions immediately, but simply sent the two fox couples away.
The next day, the leader came and led the male foxes who could not understand his actions the night before to secretly go to Qinling to see the children.
At that time, the chief asked him if he wanted to go and see the child.
He said it’s better not to go.
Because he felt that children were really fragile, he was very afraid that the tragedy that happened to his friend would happen to him.
But no one else could comfort him.
On the day when the team members went to see the little foxes, he gave the hunting team a day off and went hunting with his friend who had lost his cub.
We worked from morning till night and brought back a lot of prey.
On their way back, they were still thinking about how to comfort the other team members.
Especially his friend, his condition was not right along the way.
I kept telling him that the little fox was very fragile, just like thin linen. Its body was bright red.
His cub has been born for so many days, but it has barely grown any hair.
The skin of the little fox was attached to bones that were as thin as small dead branches. He said that he almost cried when he saw it.
He never thought that his child would be so miserable.
He clearly saw that the little fox in the mother fox's arms looked so strong and cute, with a round little belly.
Why does his child look so thin?
He doesn't understand.
But he didn't want to think about the past anymore.
Those things are over.
He was thinking about how to comfort the other team members and not let them be too sad.
As a result, when the captain and he returned to the tribe with the prey, they saw their team members standing in front of the leader, everyone with a smile on their face, and they looked very happy.
Their expressions were inconsistent with expectations, which made the two foxes who went out hunting very confused.
"Have you seen the little fox in your home?"
The captain first approached and met the smallest male fox in their team.
This team member of his was so happy that his eyes were watery but there was a smile on his face.
He replied to the concerned team leader, "Yes, I saw my children. They were drinking milk when I went there."
The team member stretched out his two front legs and gestured to the big fox in front of him, "Such a big basin, it's full of fox milk."
As he spoke, his face suddenly felt hot. If he was not in the state of a fox, people around him would have seen his red cheeks.
"I think Qinling is actually very good at taking care of children."
The chief took them so long to see the cubs that the entire morning was gone.
It turned out that the cubs were so adorable. They had hardly seen their children since they were born, and because of their longing for them and the fact that they had a day off, they spent a lot of time seeing the cubs.
So I kept watching and watching.
It was not until they saw Hongzhi leave that Qinling took out a large basin of milk from the house.
That's when the milk started to come out.
At this moment, not only were they stunned, but even the leader who was watching on the side was stunned.
They watched the whole thing without blinking.
Their gazes were so intense that the incredible male fox seemed to have noticed their gazes.
They immediately turned their heads sharply to look, and the group of male foxes quickly retracted their protruding heads and buried themselves in the bushes again.
Fortunately, the place where they were hiding was far away from the Qinling Mountains, and they moved very quickly and their hiding place was very hidden, so they were not discovered by the Qinling Mountains.
When they calmed down and looked up again, Qin Ling was no longer outside, but their group of cubs were all gathered around the basin of milk, eating noisily.
"No wonder you gave your children to him to raise, it turns out... he is so powerful."
I don't know who said this, but the air around them suddenly froze.
When Lauda gave the little fox to Qin Ling to raise, he never thought that Qin Ling had this ability.
No wonder he asked Qin Ling how he could feed these little foxes who still needed milk without a mother fox. Was this the reason?
Self-sufficient?
The leader and his subordinates also found out about it today, but he is the leader, so how could he pretend that he didn't know in front of his subordinates?
So he showed a calm expression and said something unfathomable, "Yes. But Qin Ling is more concerned about his physical condition."
"We should keep this matter to ourselves and not tell anyone else."
"Captain, can you tell me?"
"What do you think?"
The leader's eyes swept over majestically.
All the subordinates shut their fox mouths obediently.
They vowed to keep this news a secret so that no other foxes except them would know about it.
They watched the little foxes all day long, and only followed the leader to his home when it got dark.
Because what they saw during the day was beyond their understanding, the male foxes still cannot forget Qinling Mountains.
It can be said to be very impressive.
I guess no one can surpass Qinling Mountains in their minds now.
They spent a day watching how Qin Ling took care of the fox cubs. Although they didn't know much about raising babies, they could see that Qin Ling really took good care of all the fox cubs.
She doesn’t mind the poop of the babies and cleans their bodies together with Red Mole.
She would hold the cubs in the sun and even play with them patiently.
However, the cub that Qin Ling was playing with was not the child of these foxes, but the little red fox that Qin Ling was raising himself.
The little red fox is called Li Li. It is much bigger than their children. They want their children to be as big and fat as Li Li.
This is what good health is.
The captain and his friends were surprised to get such an answer from their team members.
They still feel that male foxes are not able to take good care of the little foxes.
After all, they believe that male foxes are not as delicate as female foxes, and there is only one fox in Qinling Mountains, but there are three female foxes in the nursery.
The conditions in Qinling are not as good as those in the previous nursery.
"How did he take care of it?"
The captain was a little curious.
He wanted to hear and see if Qin Ling could take care of the child.
The team members can’t really explain it.
When he thought back on it now, he realized that Qin Ling didn't really take care of the children. He was just lazily lying there, not paying any special attention to them.
Rather than taking care of them, it's more like just letting the children do whatever they want and then watching over them.
But such a simple thing seems not simple when he does it.
It's really true that the children he brings up are so nice.
The captain saw that his team member Nie Nie was stammering and couldn't say any complete sentences.
Just go and look at another team member next to you who is in a good mood.
"How are you taking care of the kids today?"
"Very good! Very good!"
"Captain, I saw your child today!"
The team members were very happy.
After looking at the children, he felt full of strength. If he were asked to go out hunting now, he would definitely give 200% of his strength for the children.
I have hope in my life, my child is well taken care of and has plenty of milk to drink.
It really made him very happy.
He had heard twice about the tribal nursery.
The members of the hunting team did not live in the same area. He lived closer to Raul and had a good personal relationship with him.
Sometimes when he passed by, or when Raul spoke loudly because he was angry, he could hear a little news.
So he knew a little about what went on in the nursery.
I don't have a good feeling towards those female vixens.
He was not happy when the nursery was gone.
I used to disapprove of the female foxes, but now I disapprove of the male foxes.
It would be better to continue to let the female fox take care of it.
He was very anxious before he went there today.
He knew that the children were not in a good situation in the nursery, and now that they were in the hands of the male fox, they probably wouldn't be in a good situation either.
But in fact it is not the case at all.
The facts and what we think are two completely different things.
His child is really much better.
He had secretly visited his child, so he had a good idea of what his child looked like.
So after seeing the child under Qin Ling's control, the fox's eyes widened.
He looked at each little fox.
I found that all the little foxes have grown a little bigger and are more energetic.
I was suddenly so excited that I couldn't help myself.
The captain didn't expect him to talk about his little fox.
The pretended happiness in his eyes faded, and his tone became uncontrollably anxious.
"What happened to the little fox?"
"Your little fox is so fierce when drinking milk, hahaha, just like you, captain, when you were a child, hahaha. The milk is so big, and he, a little fox, has to take up two places, hahaha, and the other little foxes are howling beside him."
"Captain, when are you going to check on your little fox?"
The team members usually talked to him jokingly.
The captain's expression froze, as did his friend's.
"The child is fine?"
his friend asked incredulously.
"Hmm, you don't know what kind of fox I am? Would I lie?"
The captain's friend looked at all the big foxes around him. The smiles on each of their faces were not fake and it was obvious that they really believed it.
My friend was extremely shocked because the leader ran out before even distributing the meat.
The captain shouted from behind but it was no use.
Leader Lauda knew about his friend's situation and sighed helplessly, "It's okay, let him go. Let him go and have a look. You can take his meat. Bring it to him."
"good."
The captain agreed.
After distributing the meat, the captain went home first, put down the food he had gotten, and then went to look for his friends.
As a result, he didn't meet his friend.
He sat at the door of his friend's house and waited. He didn't know how long he waited. He was almost falling asleep when his friend came back.
Face full of tears.
The fox's originally furry cheeks were now wet with tears.
"Ahh! Why is my child so pitiful? Why?"
He was awakened by the sound of his friend's footsteps, and when he looked up he heard his friend's words.
Just one simple sentence can explain a lot of things.
"Why didn't my child wait for Qinling? Why didn't Qinling come earlier? Ah! My child, my poor child!"
My friend burst into tears.
Such a big male fox rarely cries, but this time he cried so hard that he almost lost his fox shape.
If the captain hadn't rushed over to support his body, he would have fallen to the ground and wouldn't have been able to get up.
"I just touched the red mole and she told me everything."
My friend's voice was choked with sobs. He thought of all the things that Red Mole had told him and cried about, and he really couldn't calm down.
"She said they felt more sorry for their own cubs, and that so many little foxes needed a lot of milk every day, and they couldn't take care of all of them. They had no choice but to give up some of the weak cubs."
“And my child is one of them.”
"You don't know how I felt at the time. If we weren't outside Qin Ling's house and there were children inside, and I was afraid of disturbing the children, I would definitely have killed her! Ahhhhhhh!"
"My child! Ahhhhh!"
My friend lost his voice in pain.
The captain hugged the other tightly, and before he knew it he was also in tears, "Fortunately, it's all good now, right?"
After realizing this, my friend felt better. “Yes, I saw your child. He really looks like you.”
"Do you still remember the two children who were dying the day before yesterday? They are now well taken care of by Qin Ling. They can feed themselves and crawl slowly on the ground. They will not die."
The friend broke down again, “But my child is dead.”
Last time everyone blamed him, saying that he shouldn't have ignored the opinions of those female vixens because of his own selfishness.
Now that he thought about it, when the female vixens saw him in the nursery, the look on their faces was not anger because of his disobedience, but panic because of the sudden check.
Really, he was so stupid at that time.
If I had been more careful at that time, looked at my own children, and then looked at their children carefully, perhaps the children could still survive with me by their side.
The captain hugged his friend and comforted him silently.
He began to feel a little excited and wanted to go see his own children.
But the next day Raul discussed with him that he should do more work every day because the cold wave was coming soon.
The captain knew that this matter was extremely urgent, and the idea of going to see Zaizai had been put off again and again until now.
He got up early in the morning, and when the meeting time came, he opened the door and headed towards Qin Ling's house.
The captain's hands were shaking as he walked on the road. He was about to see his child.
Then he actually saw it.
His child was really as healthy and happy as others said, and even bigger than others said.
It completely exceeded my expectations for my child.
Look at the fetal hair, it's neat, clean and shiny.
You can tell at first glance that it is well cared for.
It seems that there really is such a magical thing as the connection between father and son in this world.
He had just come in when he saw his little fox, who had been playing well with the other cubs, suddenly turned his head and stared at him straight, making a coquettish sound of "嘤嘤呜呜" from his mouth.
What father could bear this?
The captain walked over excitedly and reached out carefully to touch his child.
I tried hard to control my excitement, fearing that my excessive nervousness would scare the child.
But what he expected didn't happen at all.
His child is very perceptive and very sociable.
The little fox had a very good sense of smell. He immediately smelled the captain's scent, which was that of his father.
This is the time when the little fox wants to rely on his father and mother.
He and the other little foxes had thought about getting close to Qinling.
But as soon as they revealed their thoughts, the three younger brothers who were a circle older than them would come over with stern faces and drive them away.
Keep them away from their mother.
It’s not that the little fox didn’t act cute with the three of them, but it still couldn’t make them compromise.
So from the time they were able to eat until now when they opened their eyes, they have not had much contact with Qinling Mountains.
Except when the big red fox was cleaning their butts, most of the other times the big red fox's attention was occupied by the three younger brothers who were particularly good at acting like spoiled brats.
The other little foxes were extremely jealous, they also wanted to be as close to Qin Ling as before.
But Qinling will not get close to them.
If he takes the initiative to get close to these little foxes, there will be no peace in this home.
Li Li and Chong Tong would be unworthy of their status as the BOSS in their own area if they didn't destroy this house.
The little foxes followed their three younger brothers and imitated them.
They all learned how their younger brothers acted coquettishly towards Qin Ling.
Just absorb it unconsciously.
They themselves don't know what useless things they have learned.
But now they know.
That is to grab the attention of your father.
Once the little fox is in his father's arms, it becomes the second little Li Li.
Although his skills are not as profound as Li Li's, they are enough to deal with his biological father.
The captain of the hunting team has quickly transitioned from being panic-stricken and flustered to the image of a loving old father.
The team members who have babies around him have also held their own babies.
I started to become addicted to sucking cubs.
Hongzhi was also worried when he heard him ask Qin Ling whether he could take good care of the three children when he went hunting with them.
"I was thinking about that, too. I mentioned it to him before he left, and he seemed very confident."
"Can this be decided casually? You seem very confident? We don't know how strong he is. How can he let those three kids take away?"
Talking about another member of the hunting team.
He also held a baby in his arms.
But this was not his own cub.
There are too few female vixens in the tribe, and now is not the time to socialize with other tribes, so he is still a bachelor.
But he just wanted to hug these cute little foxes, and couldn't help but imagine whether his children would be as cute as these little foxes in the future.
After listening to what Hongzhi said, he strongly disagreed with Qinling's approach.
Because he knew that Qin Ling could breastfeed, he naturally added a filter of "need to be protected" to Qin Ling.
Qinling's body is really precious, and he is also very good to his cubs. Their tribe really likes such foxes.
What he just said was not a criticism of Qin Ling's behavior, but he was very worried about Qin Ling's safety. You know, he had only seen such a powerful male mother.
Because of Qin Ling, he began to like the two little white fox cubs beside Qin Ling more.
"It's okay, he can do it himself."
This sentence was said by the laborer who came in later.
Lao Wu and his friends have truly witnessed the military strength of Qinling.
"I've seen him hunting, and he's really good at it."
"Ian and I went hunting and brought back three wild boars. It was actually Qin Ling who helped us. If it weren't for his help, we might not have come back."
"He is really amazing. He can kill two wild boars with just one fox."
The big foxes on the side were a little surprised after hearing what Lao Wu said.
You should know that there are a lot of wild boars around here, and they are very big.
Even though they are very powerful, to hunt a wild boar, they must have the cooperation of two big foxes to bring it down quickly.
They themselves couldn't say they could fight a wild boar alone.
"Really?"
Some foxes remained hesitant, and they put down the little foxes in their arms reluctantly.
The little foxes were reluctant to leave their arms. Even after they put them down, they continued to act coquettishly to them, raising their fox kisses and calling to them in a soft voice.
Like a very timid yet alert little wild cat in the jungle.
"Then let's go and meet him quickly."
"good!"
They set out late, and according to Hongzhi's description, Qinling had left when it got dark.
Now the sky has turned red and half of the sun's face has been revealed.
The foxes moved through the jungle at great speed.
He kept sniffing the scent left by other foxes.
But Qin Ling and his friends had been gone for so long that the smell they left behind had become very faint.
Only there seemed to be an indescribable milky smell lingering in the air.
When the big foxes were almost reaching Qinling following the smell of milk, their ears were awakened by a burst of childish voices.
"Ahhhhhh! Mommy is so handsome!"
"Mom, I love you, I love you! Just like a mouse loves rice!"
“MOMMOMMOMMOMMOMMOM!!!”
"That's right! Wow! Great job, Mom!"
Even Chongye, who couldn't see Qinling hunting nearby, couldn't help but jump up along with Lili and Chongtong.
Shouting for Qinling's shaking claws, "Mom! You are the best! Chongye will always love you!"
The big foxes became excited when they heard the cubs' voices, and they pushed aside the leaves of the bushes in front of them.
A black shadow suddenly landed, and the foxes subconsciously ran to the side.
With a loud "bang", the dead bison crashed heavily onto the place where they had just been.
It even created a hidden pit.
"Yeah yeah yeah! Mommy is really awesome! I love mommy!"
Li Li and Chong Tong cheered immediately and ran directly towards the bison.
When they climbed onto the bison, the two little foxes didn't have time to hide the happy expressions on their faces, and the fur on their bodies suddenly exploded.
Lauda looked at the lovely Li Li and said, "Li Li..."
Li Li and he spoke at the same time, their voices so loud that they deafened all the foxes present.
"These are our and Mom's prey!"
"We want to eat it ourselves!"
Hate! ! !
Why come out at this time!
hateful!
If they say "whoever sees it gets a share", the three of them will definitely make a big fuss and make a big noise!
snort!
The author has something to say:
An unexpected achievement today: three cups of Yolemei.
Ah, bashi.
