When the comb reached the fur, a tingling sensation spread through him, and Yongqi let out a comfortable groan. He then stretched and decisively lay down on the grass, ready to take a nap.
Chipmunks have no idea what it feels like to have their fur combed. Seeing the courage of the chipmunk to fall fast asleep instantly, the little guy was a bit puzzled.
Turning to look at Lin Qian, who was sleeping soundly beside him, the little guy stopped thinking and quickly continued his grooming (and fur-gathering) mission.
Don't let the chipmunk's small size fool you; it has excellent stamina and agility. After grooming the two brothers, the little guy grabbed the comb and immediately went to find the three big cats.
Unsurprisingly, the three big cats also dozed off while being gently stroked.
The chipmunk stared in surprise at the "hypnotic tool" in its hand. Its furry face instantly became extremely serious, and it decided that it must keep this tool safe!
This is a powerful tool for pacifying tiger kings!
The glory of this rat's life depends on it!
With the wooden comb, the tigers returned to their leisurely lives, except for one diligent little figure who became even busier.
Today is another beautiful day. The sky is clear and cloudless, the afternoon sun is warm, and the atmosphere of spring is very strong.
The thick snow had long since disappeared, and the forest was full of lush green life.
The melted snow irrigated the long-parched soil, nourishing countless tender plant buds.
The shrubs have sprouted tender green leaves, ready to welcome the colorful flowers that will bloom in the height of summer. The fruit trees are beginning to form flower buds, which will soon bear sweet fruit.
The melodious birds perched on the high branches, singing loudly. Squirrels and rodents, which had been hiding in tree holes all winter, awoke and became active among the branches.
After the snow melted, the forest became more and more lively each day.
It's the season when all things come back to life, and all kinds of animals are breeding and mating.
"Squeak—"
Unlike the soft, cute calls of chipmunks echoing from the tall pine trees.
This is the excited call of a female squirrel. In spring, female squirrels become unusually restless and excited, and they begin to appear frequently during the day, greatly increasing the chances of encountering them.
Female squirrels often emit sharp calls to attract male squirrels, and after they find each other attractive, they mate and carry on their pregnancy, thus completing the important task of species reproduction.
At that moment, a female squirrel that had just wandered near the tiger's den was excitedly chirping. This female squirrel, who had mistakenly entered the tiger's den, was working hard to cross patches of trees and was actively looking for a suitable mate.
Suddenly, it smelled the scent of a male of its kind nearby.
Although the taste was somewhat different from before, its keen intuition made it pursue it without hesitation.
Lively and active squirrels have always been a favorite of courage. When they are young, these little animals are their daily "toys" and "sweets".
Now that winter is over, the playful tiger cubs have grown up.
Seeing the unusually active female squirrel, Yongqi drooped its eyes but ignored it, having lost all interest in the little creature.
On a large pine tree next to the tiger's den, a chipmunk was fast asleep in its tree hole. It was a rare afternoon nap, and the little guy was sleeping very soundly.
"Squeak squeak~~"
Suddenly, an excited chirping sound rang out beside me, and the chipmunk snapped its big, round eyes open.
A fluffy head was peeking into its tree hole; it was an animal species it used to recognize.
The sleepy chipmunk was puzzled. Since becoming a spirit beast, these familiar little animals dared not approach it easily. What was going on today?
When the female squirrel arrived at the entrance of the tree hole, she felt an invisible pressure, a suppression at the level of life.
However, this pressure is usually only felt when you get close, and most of the time it is not obvious.
The female squirrel, startled by the intimidating presence, regained some of her composure. She dared not advance and could only stand cautiously at the entrance of the tree hole, looking at the chipmunk that seemed to be of the same kind but not quite the same, with hesitation and doubt.
Although chipmunks are also squirrels, they are not the same as ordinary squirrels. In addition, they undergo some changes after becoming spirit beasts, so the female squirrel was puzzled and couldn't understand the difference in her little brain.
The male squirrel in front of it was twice its size, but its scent was clearly not that of the mate it was looking for... However, the squirrel in front of it exuded a powerful aura, and it had a premonition that it was a powerful male!
The female squirrel hesitated between turning back and running away, and taking a gamble.
It hesitated for a moment, then wagged its tail, finally mustering its courage.
"Squeak..."
"squeak!
"Tiger King!"
!
Upon receiving the female squirrel's courtship message, the chipmunk cried out in surprise and leaped down from the treetop.
Seeing the chipmunk "jumping through the tree," the female pine tree was terrified. Her bushy tail stood straight up, and then she turned around nimbly and leaped swiftly between the treetops, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Lin Qian stared blankly at the chipmunk that had suddenly burrowed under his fur, covering itself up completely.
What did the tiger miss?
Courage watched the female squirrel dart past the treetops overhead, then tilted his head back and yawned.
"Aww..." These little animals are so noisy...
The chipmunk was quite frightened by this ordeal, and followed Lin Qian closely all day long, almost becoming a tiger's tail pendant.
Lin Qian was completely baffled. When asked, the little guy just babbled incoherently and couldn't explain himself.
If I don't ask, it's a bit upsetting.
No matter how Lin Qian thought about it, he couldn't have imagined that the chipmunk was frightened by a female squirrel in heat.
