The little pig didn't understand at the time, but later he saw a lion that had been starving for several days and was almost hunted by jackals. Then he understood that the small animals being chased by lions were pitiful, but the lions that had been starving for several days were also pitiful.
Lions hunt small animals just like humans eat pork. In a lion's eyes, those small animals are simply food, and there's nothing to sympathize with them.
The pig saved the little animal, but the lion had to go hungry. His kindness to the little animal was cruelty to the lion.
Since then, the little pig has stopped interfering with anything in nature. No matter how pitiful something is, he will harden his heart and believe that the animal kingdom has its own laws of survival, and there is no need for human intervention.
What humans can do is to avoid destroying the habitats of wild animals as much as possible; this is the greatest kindness we can show them.
The little pig noticed the disdain in his younger siblings' eyes and had to explain, "There are too many poisonous insects on the mountain. The caves won't affect the mountain's food chain, so they let them eat each other. It's good that you have this intention, but you have to consider the circumstances."
Jingjing pursed her lips and muttered a few words under her breath. The little pig didn't hear her clearly and was too lazy to ask. He realized that he and the little kid had nothing to talk about. The generation gap was too deep, and they couldn't connect.
After strolling around the mountaintop, Little Pig took An An back to sleep. He still had homework to do; he couldn't fall behind in his studies, or his father would break his legs.
There weren't enough beds, so the siblings were happy to squeeze in one quietly, as they had important things to discuss.
"The snakes are so pitiful, let's go catch bad guys and feed them," Jingjing said, having come up with an idea.
An'an immediately agreed, eager to try, "Let's go catch them now."
There are so many bad people down the mountain, enough meat for those snakes to eat.
"Wait a little longer, let's go after Daddy falls asleep." Jingjing was calmer; if she went out now, Lu Mo would definitely catch her and she would get a spanking.
An'an nodded, yawned, and the siblings fell asleep head to head.
The night on the mountaintop was exceptionally quiet, with only the whistling of the wind outside, which was somewhat eerie. However, Ye Qingqing slept soundly. In the middle of the night, the wind on the mountaintop grew stronger, rattling against the windowpanes with a pattering sound.
The two little ones were wrapped up tightly, with only their little faces showing. They crouched down and left the room to prevent Lu Mo from chasing after them. Jingjing even had the vines around the stone house reinforce it. If it were daytime, you would see that the stone house had turned green. The walls and roof were covered with vines thicker than fingers. The windows and doors were also surrounded by vines, making it impossible for them to get out.
"Why did Mom, Dad, and my older brother come out?" An'an asked worriedly.
"What's the rush? Let's go and come back quickly. We'll be back before Mom and Dad wake up."
Jingjing didn't care at all. She pulled her younger brother along a shortcut. She had already asked Xiaozhu before and found out that there was a shortcut down the mountain. Because there were too many vines, few people took it, but she wasn't afraid. She would make the vines obediently give way.
The dense vines blocked out the outside sounds, and even the wind could not be heard. Lu Mo had been having trouble sleeping, as he didn't like noisy environments. He had only managed to fall asleep in the middle of the night when the sudden silence woke him up. He looked around at his surroundings.
Something's up!
Lu Mo walked to the window, wanting to open it and see what was going on outside. Why was it so quiet?
He pushed for a long time, but the window wouldn't budge, as if it were being blocked from the outside. Lu Mo pushed it hard, and the window creaked.
