Jun Qi caught sight of the crocodile out of the corner of his eye, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes. He lowered his head and licked the fur on Xu Qiaoqiao's head, smoothing out the fur that had stood up from shaking her head, and then rubbed against her forehead.
"Waaaaah?" Xu Qiaoqiao blinked. Because of the angle, she couldn't see the crocodile that was about to go into the water, so she didn't understand why Junjun suddenly became excited.
With green eyes as clear as pure gemstones, Jun Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his paw and pointed at the crocodile over there, his eyes seeming to say: Little guy, look at that crocodile, isn't it fat?
Jun Qi has always been very enthusiastic about food.
Xu Qiaoqiao followed Jun Qi's paw and saw that, sure enough, a crocodile was clumsily crawling into the water. Soon, the entire crocodile jumped into the water, leaving only its head sticking out and its eyes warily looking around.
Looking around, I suddenly met a pair of very "enthusiastic" green eyes.
Crocodile:"……"
Jun Qi: "!!!"
Xu Qiaoqiao: "...!!!"
I'll observe three seconds of silence for you.
Then, hoping that Junjun's hunting activity would go smoothly, crocodile meat is still very delicious, Xu Qiaoqiao smacked her lips and swam to a relatively safe place, leaning her back against a large rock and supporting her chin with her two paws.
Seeing Xu Qiaoqiao's movements, Jun Qi swayed his tail slightly a few times, stared at her intently for several seconds, and then turned his gaze to the crocodile. Now, the crocodile had already swum away in the distance with the current, and it was clear that its speed was increasing.
"..." Jun Qi didn't think much and immediately jumped into the water and swam towards the crocodile. Having been through countless battles, he didn't need to worry about not being able to catch the crocodile. He was only worried about whether he would be too late to get back.
However, Jun Qi obviously doesn't need to worry too much about Xu Qiaoqiao. Although she is still a cub and very petite, she has already learned to hunt. In the previous world, she also learned those hunting methods on her own and used them very well.
As long as it's not an animal like Jun Qi, who is ridiculously strong compared to her, Xu Qiaoqiao is confident that she can escape successfully.
At this moment, the sun in the sky began to show signs of decline, the bright sunlight slowly turned orange, and the sky began to darken.
At dusk.
That crocodile was quite good at escaping.
Jun Qi looked at the crocodile in front of him. With the current and its own swimming speed, it was moving quite fast.
Jun Qi followed behind it and saw the sunset illuminating the sky. Knowing he couldn't delay any longer, he quickened his pace, climbed to the shore, and without stopping for a moment, began to run along the direction of the current.
Without the water's obstruction, Jun Qi's movements became significantly faster. In just a few seconds, he caught up with the crocodile, his thigh muscles bulging slightly and his shoulder blades protruding somewhat, his eyes fixed on the crocodile.
Nature always has its own way of observing danger, perhaps through intuition.
Jun Qi spotted the crocodile that was still swimming, slightly gathered his strength in his hind legs, and suddenly leaped off the shore, landing his entire body on top of the crocodile.
Its sharp teeth were aimed at the crocodile's head. As it pounced on its prey, it bit down hard on the crocodile's head, piercing through its brain.
The crocodile only struggled at the very beginning. As the wound grew larger and blood slowly spread into the surrounding water, the crocodile gradually lost consciousness and finally ran out of strength to struggle.
Jun Qi twitched his nose, didn't let go, and swam towards the shore with the crocodile still in his mouth. After getting ashore, he quickly ran back the way he came.
The surrounding scenery seemed to turn into a blur, and like an arrow released from a bow, it shot off in a flash, with the wind whistling beneath its feet.
On the other side, Xu Qiaoqiao was still there, obediently waiting for Jun Qi to return. When the two of them came out, it wasn't even noon yet, but Jun Qi seemed to have discovered something strange.
Judging from his expression, it seems like something rather dangerous has happened.
Xu Qiaoqiao guessed that because of this matter, a lot of time had been wasted, and it was already afternoon, with the sun about to set.
She looked up at the distant sky. The sun had disappeared halfway down, but its light was exceptionally bright, with an orange halo that painted a large part of the sky. The other part of the sky, however, was not painted and gradually dimmed.
Another beautiful day is almost over.
When Jun Qi returned, the sunset was almost gone, and in the dim sky, some bright stars and the hazy outline of a moon seemed to appear.
"Waaaaah!"
When she smelled a bloody scent, Xu Qiaoqiao became nervous. She plucked a leaf from the side and followed the scent, which was mixed with a familiar aroma. Her tense heart immediately relaxed.
She ran towards the shore, stumbling and falling, looking as if she might collapse at any moment.
Just then, Xu Qiaoqiao felt her stomach start to rumble. As she climbed back to the shore, Jun Qi stopped his car in time in front of her, while the crocodile he was holding in his mouth was dangling in mid-air.
"Eek." Xu Qiaoqiao cried out happily. Jun Qi did not let go of his prey, but instead raised his paw to pat the little one's head, then nodded to her, signaling her to follow.
—Okay, I understand.
Xu Qiaoqiao nodded seriously to Jun Qi. "I will. When it comes to food, I'm just as serious as you are."
In matters of the heart, one should always take things one step at a time.
—My good boy.
Jun Qi's serious gaze gradually softened, and he slowly withdrew his claws, beginning to walk deeper into the rainforest.
The situation is different now. The relationship between prey and predator is very intense. Sometimes, some bold animals will steal the food of other animals, especially when the other animal has just successfully hunted.
Even if it doesn't work out, at least you'll get a piece of meat off the ground.
So at this moment, Jun Qi was extra careful, and so was Xu Qiaoqiao. She followed closely behind Jun Qi, glancing around furtively as if she were stealing something from someone else.
"Waaaaah."
Jun Qi found a tall tree that was reasonably sized and turned to look at Xu Qiaoqiao: Is this okay?
Can I climb the tree?
After all, for him, the safest area was the one in the tree.
Xu Qiaoqiao blinked. Of course, even if she wasn't used to it before, she got used to it after a while. Being at a high place wasn't bad, and if she felt uncomfortable, she could stay close to Junjun.
