Chapter 107: Ruthless Los: Don’t Try to Poach
What Kaie hates most in his life is snow leopards that cannot remember their names. Every one he meets is like this. He even begins to doubt whether his own name is not easy to remember.
But Luo Yin, standing before him, didn't take Kai'er's defense breach seriously at all. He looked at Kai'er calmly, frowned, and said, "I don't remember."
Kaier was a little angry and gritted his teeth and said, "I just had a fight with you before."
"Oh, a leopard defeated by its claws." Luo Yin quickly understood Kaie's meaning and quickly concluded, "I understand. I'll remember that next time."
No matter how carefree Kai'e was, he could hear the perfunctory tone in Luo Yin's words. Luo Yin was even too lazy to growl a warning at him, because in Luo Yin's eyes, Kai'e was not a threat at all.
It flicked its tail and left without saying anything to Kaier. Kaier was furious but could not say anything. He stood there watching Luo Yin leave before muttering indignantly, "You must remember this next time, or I'll make you suffer!"
"Who are you going to make look bad?" Xu Nian returned, only to find Kaie still there. He asked, "Have you seen Los?"
"No." Kai'e was still furious, his eyes practically blazing. He turned his gaze to Xu Nian and asked, "Do I look like the kind of snow leopard that's easily overlooked?"
"Of course not!" Xu Nian was second to none in the entire Snow Plains when it came to providing emotional value. Seeing Kaie's dismay, Xu Nian immediately said, "You're certainly not the kind of snow leopard that's easily overlooked. The moment I saw you, I remembered your name."
After all, which snow leopard could be so vulnerable? Kaie was definitely the most fragile snow leopard Xu Nian had ever seen. Of course, he would definitely not tell Kaie this to prevent the snow leopard from being even more vulnerable.
However, such a simple sentence was enough to make Kaie so happy that he raised his tail and went to look for traces of Los for Xu Nian again. After taking a few steps, he tilted his head slightly, thought for a while, and felt as if he had forgotten what he had said.
But it couldn't find an answer after thinking about it for a long time. After licking its paw, it murmured softly, "Forget it. What's the big deal if I can forget it? It's definitely not something important."
…
Xu Nian searched in vain. When he returned to the den, he saw a mountain goat standing in front of the den. He knew who it belonged to without any guessing. He immediately looked around but could not find any trace of Los for a long time.
Just as Xu Nian was watching the sky getting darker and darker, preparing to go down the mountain again, he almost bumped into Los who was climbing up the mountain. Los subconsciously stepped back a little, giving Xu Nian enough cushion to let him rush into his arms, and then took Xu Nian with him up the mountain. He dropped the mountain goat in his mouth and came to Xu Nian's side to lick his fur. He tilted his furry head slightly, and asked with a confused look on his face, "What's wrong? Where are you going?"
This was the question Xu Nian was originally going to ask Los. He was going to ask where Los had gone.
However, before Xu Nian could answer, Los seemed to have thought of something and immediately pushed Xu Nian towards the nest a few times, saying, "It's been snowing hard these past few days, so you stay in the nest honestly, okay?"
There is something more terrifying than a snowstorm outside, and that is Luo Yin coming!
It will never let Luo Yin take Xu Nian away, it will never allow it!
Xu Nianban lay in front of the cave, looking at the two blue sheep in shock. You know, now it is difficult to find blue sheep, even snow hares. The Tibetan fox family that lived at the foot of the mountain had already run away overnight. It seemed that they also felt that there were too few prey here and they had to make plans as soon as possible.
But Los actually caught two mountain goats at once!
"I thought about it carefully. I was too rash. In fact, before we became independent, our mother should have taught us how to find a mate. But Luo Yin and I were kicked out by our mother because we often fought, so she didn't have time to teach us." Los licked his paws. He squatted on the ground, his body with obvious muscle lines showing the power of a wild predator, but his expression seemed very serious, so much so that he seemed a little ignorant and honest.
Los said seriously, "I've seen other snow leopards courting mates. They all brought prey with them, but I spoke too hastily and didn't prepare anything. It's winter now, and prey is so hard to find. Otherwise, I could give you something better... Trust me, I'll give you more and bigger prey in the spring. You... You don't have to promise me anything yet. Wait until I get the prey and then answer me... But just one thing, don't leave me with another snow leopard, okay?"
Los had been thinking about this for a long time. He pondered it all the way and finally said it all out loud. After he finished speaking, he stared at Xu Nian seriously, but his claws were not as calm as his expression showed. The tips of his claws were grabbing the rock, as if he was thinking about something, waiting for Xu Nian's answer nervously and expectantly.
"So... from now until spring, does that count as pursuit?" Xu Nian asked.
"Of course." Los leaned over, nuzzled Xu Nian, and assured him, "I will treat you well. I will definitely treat you well."
Xu Nian felt that what he had said to Los on the rock wall had finally worked. He swung his tail gently a few times and followed Los's example, moving closer and rubbing against him.
In fact, similar actions have been done before, but at that time it was a way for beasts to show friendship. Now, because of Los's sudden confession, this action has been given other meanings.
Xu Nian felt that Los’s promise could be trusted.
Because no matter whether it was danger or hunger and cold, the other party never gave up on him, and even taught him a lot and got injured to save him. Xu Nian saw all this. He took the initiative to raise his neck slightly and rubbed his face lightly with Los.
The two snow leopards' food for the evening was the two blue sheep. After eating until they were a little full, Xu Nian lay on his back on the snow, sweeping his tail gently behind him. He seemed to feel that this was not working, so he simply got up, hugged his tail and rolled on the ground twice, trying to exercise himself and help digestion.
"What's wrong?" Los saw Xu Nian's expression and leaned over to lick him as usual. If it were before, Xu Nian would not have cared much, always thinking that it was a proof of a good relationship between animals licking each other's fur. But now, his back stiffened slightly for a moment, and after thinking for two seconds, he chose to lie on the ground, letting Los lick his fur. He moved the tip of his tail slightly and said in a muffled voice, "I'm full."
Hearing this, Los chuckled softly, gently lifted his nose, sniffed Xu Nian, and then said: "Lie down, I'll lick you."
All cats like to do this when they are full, and Los is no exception. After hearing what Los said, Xu Nian lay down on the snow, hooked his furry paws, revealing his soft and bulging belly. He looked at Los with his eyes open, and there was an indescribable purity in his eyes, which made Los couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
It really likes Xu Nian's eyes, which are not found in other snow leopards, very gentle.
"Is this position okay?" Xu Nian asked in a low voice.
Los' attention was drawn back by Xu Nian's words. His eyes swept across Xu Nian's soft belly. The fur on his belly was slightly messy. He was even hooking his paws, and his furry ears trembled slightly twice.
"Okay." Los only felt his throat a little dry, so he squatted down and licked his own fur hurriedly before licking Xu Nian's fur. He looked busy, but no one knew what he was busy with.
Just when Xu Nian thought that Los didn't want to lick his fur and was about to get up a little embarrassedly, Los suddenly came over and licked Xu Nian's belly with his hooked tongue. It felt a little strange, so Los rubbed against him and was very seriously combing Xu Nian's fur.
Los hadn't combed Xu Nian's belly hair these days, and he could see that Xu Nian's hair was a little tangled. He remembered what Xu Nian had said before, that when he was with Luo Yin, his fur had always been very smooth and clean.
"Luo Yin...has he combed your fur?" Los leaned over and kissed Xu Nian, asking in a low voice.
It decided that if Luo Yin dared to comb Xu Nian's fur, it would beat Luo Yin up the next time it met him, and it would raise Xu Nian much better than Luo Yin!
He wants to raise Xu Nian into the most beautiful snow leopard with the fluffiest and cleanest fur on this snowy plain!
"No." Xu Nian answered honestly. He licked his paws and thought for a moment before saying, "I rarely lick my own fur."
That's true, but he is not very skilled at licking and always tends to swallow a large clump of hair.
Although Los didn't say anything this time, his tail shook twice with some pleasure. He came close to Xu Nian again, nudged Xu Nian with his nose, and made a soft hum. His furry ears shook with joy.
Xu Nian found that Los was really easy to coax, but he didn’t know if all cats were so easy to coax, or if only Los was so easy to coax.
He inevitably thought of the time when Luo Yin pretended to be Los, and he decisively felt that Los was the only one who was easy to appease.
At night, Los held Xu Nian in his arms and fell asleep as usual. His tail served as a cushion for Xu Nian, and his entire back was close to the cave entrance, blocking the blizzard and allowing Xu Nian to sleep more comfortably.
But maybe he had eaten too much for dinner, and Xu Nian still felt uneasy in the middle of the night. Unable to sleep, he crawled out of Los's arms and walked back and forth in front of the cave, trying to digest the food. Los did not stop him. He just lay half-lying in the cave, closing his eyes slightly to rest. He looked like he was asleep, but in fact his ears were still alert, always observing the surroundings to prevent any sudden attack by snow leopards.
Xu Nian looked down at his obviously bloated stomach. Due to the reduction in prey in the past few days, he had eaten less than usual. Now that he had eaten too much in one go, he felt particularly bloated.
He began to jump a few times, shaking his tail, and jumping from one side of the rock wall to the other, practicing his jumping ability. Compared with when he first became a snow leopard, he is now almost reborn.
"Don't jump too close to the edge. There are steel pipes over there and they are very slippery. Be careful not to fall down." Los warned.
"Okay." Xu Nianying said. He strolled back and forth. At night, he heard the howling of wolves in the distance. He hadn't heard the howling of wolves for several days. When he heard it again unexpectedly, Xu Nian actually felt a little nostalgic.
Los' attention was immediately attracted by the wolf howls. He stood up and walked to the other side, as if he was ready to see why the wolves were howling suddenly. After all, the most likely animal to appear at this time was a brown bear. Los felt that it was very likely a brown bear, as it could make the wolves howl like a warning.
It stood high and looked far, trying to determine which direction the brown bear was going from to prevent danger during the next hunt.
At this moment, they didn't notice that another snow leopard was sniffing all the way, and when it was about to raise its claws to grab the rock, it ended up grabbing the steel pipe with one claw.
Steel pipes are difficult to fix, and this is the trap set by Xu Nian.
So Luo Yin was very surprised and slipped directly. He used the steel pipe as a landing place, but the steel rod was stuck in the gap and turned a circle. Los slipped directly with one claw. He barely grabbed the edge. He just breathed a sigh of relief and was glad that he did not fall down. When he was about to take another step up, he looked up and saw a furry tail hanging down.
The snow leopard's fluffy back looked incredibly familiar. Just as it was terrified, it heard that familiar voice, "Luo..."
"Bang——" There was a loud noise.
Xu Nian was startled and turned his head sharply to look down, but there was nothing. Los was also attracted by the sound and immediately followed over. He bit Xu Nian's back and pulled him behind him. Then he observed for a while, went up to the steel pipe and sniffed it twice, and his expression suddenly turned cold.
"What's wrong?" Xu Nian asked.
"Nothing." Los licked his paw, stood in front of Xu Nian, and said, "Maybe a vulture hit it."
"Vulture? Crashing into a rock?" Xu Nian looked at Los in surprise and asked, "Is that possible?"
"Maybe." Los shook his tail gently, nuzzled Xu Nian, and whispered, "Because it's stupid."
Xu Nian couldn't smell who it was at all, so he just did whatever Los said as long as there was no danger. But Los took him back to the nest, licked his belly again, and let him sleep peacefully.
However, Los did not sleep that night.
Damn Luo Yin, don’t try to steal his girlfriend while he’s sleeping.
Ross thought grimly.
