Chapter 127: Cleared of the grievances and no longer needing to bear the blame
Kai'e finally escaped the tragic fate of being blamed again, and successfully took the dried meat away. It had always insisted on not keeping any dried meat and had to eat it all. Only when it entered its stomach could it be considered eaten, otherwise it would most likely be stolen or eaten by other animals.
For example, some snow leopards will place their prey near their dens and continue hunting, but occasionally their prey will be stolen by other snow leopards.
Kaie gently wagged his tail. Having eaten and drunk his fill, he half-lay on the rock, looking at Xu Nian and Los cuddling together under the cabin. He licked his paws and thought these two snow leopards were really affectionate.
不过它不敢当着许年的面说,许年不会揍它, 但是许年会让洛斯揍它,而洛斯那个恋爱脑, 不说也罢。
The whole night of chaos was finally over. When the sun set the next day, Xu Nian checked Los's wound first to prevent himself from pressing on Los's wound while drowsy during sleep.
The wound healed well, and the old man had no intention of keeping the snow leopards in captivity. He even drove them out. Looking at the backs of Xu Nian and Los as they left, the old man felt a little reluctant. After all, such well-behaved snow leopards were rare, and it was a pity that they could not be kept and would easily go to jail.
"Hey, where can I find such a sensible and obedient snow leopard?" The old man shook his head, then turned and walked back.
"You're back?" Kai'e didn't expect Xu Nian and Los to come back. He was a little shocked and said, "Why don't you stay there? There's food, drinks, and friends to play with."
"I like the wild." Ross said, "Do you really want to stay there?"
"Of course!" Kaier gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, why would I chase the wolves so hard? Isn't it just to stay there? Look at the fur of the ones you raised. Damn it!"
Those who wanted to stay couldn't stay, but those who didn't want to stay stayed.
When Los saw Xu Nian lying in the cave to rest, he went over and rubbed him lovingly. In fact, Xu Nian had not slept well in the past few days. He felt a little insecure. After getting used to sleeping in the cave, he felt unsafe because of the wind outside. Fortunately, Los was by his side, holding him to sleep.
Xu Nian was sleeping with his eyes closed, his breathing was a little shallow, and his abdomen was slightly heaving. Looking at the big furry ball in the nest, Los's heart softened. He stood up and walked over to lie on his side next to Xu Nian, gently sniffing the other's scent, and then continued to rest his tail on the other's body.
"It snowed heavily last night," Kaie whispered. "I almost fell into a pit when I was chasing the wolves yesterday. But it feels like there's a little sunshine today. If it stays like this, spring will be here."
Kai'e was looking forward to the arrival of spring. He raised his head and looked outside. The snow leopard's slightly blue eyes were full of longing for spring. There was no love in his eyes, only the desire for prey and the desire to fill his stomach.
Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction. Los's injury healed, the three snow leopards filled their stomachs, and most importantly, in this winter, Los found a partner whom he wanted to protect for life, and the other party also agreed to it.
Nothing is more important than this. It wagged its tail gently, wishing it could stay close to Xu Nian forever and not be separated.
It was not until the evening that Xu Nian finally woke up, and he finally felt like he had had a good sleep.
"Comfortable!" Xu Nian stretched out his body. Snow leopards have long waists to begin with. He rolled on the ground, like a long cat strip, in the snow. He then climbed up and shook off the snow on his body. His eyes fell on Los who was standing next to him. He went over and rubbed against him, saying, "I'm relieved that your injury has healed!"
"There's one more thing I forgot to take." Ross said: "A steel rod."
Xu Nian tilted his head slightly. If that were the case, this was indeed a very serious problem, but fortunately this problem was relatively easy to solve. The steel rod had been thrown by the old man over in the sheep pen, and no one needed it, so anyone could take it now.
"Oh my go! Leave it to me!" Kaie wanted to try again to see if he could eat some more dried meat. This time he was very active in working. Without waiting for Los and Xu Nian to speak, he had already jumped down the mountain. His movements were flexible and skillful, and he soon disappeared from Xu Nian and the others' sight.
However, when Kaie was about to look for the steel rod in the sheep pen, he met another snow leopard. The two of them almost collided with each other. Obviously, the other party did not expect to see Kaie here. Both snow leopards were stunned for a moment. The other snow leopard had a lamb in its mouth, and Kaie had a piece of cloth in his mouth, with the steel rod wrapped in the cloth. After they looked at each other, they growled to warn each other.
The sound immediately startled the old man who was feeding the mastiffs. He immediately realized that his sheep were being targeted again, and hurried out with a stick in his hand. The mastiffs ran left and right behind him.
Two snow leopards landed in front of the old man, one of them was holding a lamb in its mouth, and the other was holding a steel rod in its mouth. The old man was stunned by the sight, but he quickly realized that he had to get rid of the snow leopard holding the lamb first, otherwise the lamb would be taken away.
The snow leopard had finally found its prey, so how could it bear to let go? It jumped over the fence. When it was about to escape, it was pounced on by the snow leopard behind it and knocked to the ground. The two snow leopards immediately started biting each other.
"Get lost! I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business! If you want the lamb, go find it yourself!" The sheep-stealing snow leopard shouted angrily, "You want to steal mine?!"
"Put down the sheep and go on your own. I won't stop you." Kaier said with a cold face, showing his sharp fangs, warning: "Otherwise, I will make you go in an ugly way."
The snow leopard that stole the sheep was obviously a little hesitant, but the smell of the sheep was too tempting for it, and they started to bite each other, neither of them willing to give in. The old man watched from the side and tried to deal with them with a stick.
After all, although Kaie lost to Los and then to Luo Yin, in fact, its combat power is definitely top-notch among snow leopards, otherwise Mu He would not say that Kaie is a very powerful snow leopard whenever he mentions it.
This time, as expected, the snow leopard was also defeated by Kaier's claws. The snow leopard was covered with bloody marks from Kaier's bites and roared, but this threat after defeat had no effect on Kaier. After gently shaking its tail a few times, it raised its paw and pressed it on the snow leopard, warning: "You often steal sheep here, right?"
The snow leopard looked at Kaie cautiously, shrank its neck slightly, and did not answer the question, but not answering was tantamount to answering.
Kai'e's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he lowered his head and bit the other party again. The sheep-stealing snow leopard let out a shrill cry and then fled in panic.
Kai'e stood where he was and did not try to stop the other party this time. After all, if he struggled desperately, Kai'e would be injured, and the last thing he wanted now was to get injured, after all, winter was not over yet.
After the snow leopard ran away, Kaie turned his head back and was about to leave with his broken steel stick in his mouth, but he smelled the fragrance of dried meat and the steel stick in his mouth fell out immediately. He stared at the food with his eyes showing two emotions: caution and desire to eat. He was struggling fiercely.
"So you are not the snow leopard that stole the lamb." The old man originally thought that Kaier was the snow leopard that stole the lamb, but when he saw that snow leopard just now, he realized that he had misunderstood the snow leopard in front of him.
"Of course not! That one is!" Kaier said angrily. "How could I do such a thing? It's my good friend's lamb."
However, its fierce tone immediately became much more flattering after it saw the dried meat in the old man's hand.
"These are all for you. I misunderstood you." The old man didn't dare to touch the snow leopard in front of him. This one looked very fierce in fighting, much more ferocious than the well-behaved snow leopard a few days ago. The old man didn't dare to take any risks. He just threw the dried meat to Kai'e and said, "Eat it, eat it."
Kai'e, who had never known what politeness was, immediately lowered his head and began to lick the surface, wishing he could eat all the snow underneath.
After eating the dried meat, Kaie still didn't forget his steel stick and took it away again.
…
In the forest not far away, two wolves were on guard. Suddenly they noticed something unusual. After looking at each other, they immediately lowered their bodies, walked slowly inside, and then suddenly stopped.
Both wolves noticed that the snow in front of them seemed to be falling, and then when they looked up, they saw a big brown bear walking towards them, and at a fast speed. There was a hint of fear in the eyes of both wolves, and then they looked at each other and turned away.
It can be said that the brown bear has almost no rivals here. It is large in size, has strong attack power and fierce bite force, so no animal is willing to conflict with the brown bear. Even the herdsmen here dare not do anything to the brown bear.
"Woo--" The wolf issued a warning sound as it left.
"The wolves are howling again." Kaie returned to the cave, pricked up his ears and listened outside. "That's just how they are. If one barks, they all bark. They really love to bark."
Both Los and Xu Nian agreed with this point, but the one who agreed with it the most was probably Luo Yin.
At this moment, Luo Yin was scratching his ears with his claws, his eyes fixed on the distance. He stood up and walked around anxiously, shouting to try to get the wolves to stop shouting, but it was completely useless. Although they could not understand each other, it did not prevent the wolves from thinking that this was a provocation, and they shouted even more.
There was no telling when this howling sound would end. Luo Yin made up his mind that after winter was over, he would find a territory of his own, preferably one far away from the wolf pack.
Xu Nian and Los' furry ears trembled. They had no choice but to shield themselves. This was very simple for the two snow leopards. They just needed to divert their attention. Licking each other's fur was the best way.
"Let's continue lowering the steel rods later, maybe we can get some food." Xu Nian said.
In fact, Xu Nian looked like he was fishing. Los on the side nodded slightly. He just had to make sure Xu Nian didn't fall.
Three days passed in a flash. During these three days, everything was almost calm. There was nothing, and of course no prey. Even after putting down the steel rod, there was still no prey. Xu Nian felt that there might be a special way of communication between prey.
"How come you can't find prey? That shouldn't be the case." Kaie said, "We were able to find it before."
"Maybe the sheep are telling each other, 'Have you seen a long steel stick? No matter what's on it, don't eat it. It's a trap. My grandmother's uncle's daughter's son was eaten by a snow leopard after licking it.'" Xu Nian said with a smile, "Or maybe the rabbits are telling each other, 'My friend's brother's brother's spouse's friend ate this and was also eaten by a snow leopard.'"
Kaier tried to understand but failed. However, he got the general idea and said, "Is this okay?"
"Of course, for example, if I knew this was dangerous, I would definitely tell you. If you knew there was danger here, you would also tell us. It's the same." Xu Nian smiled and said, "This is normal."
This was an interesting reason, although a bit strange, but it convinced Los and Kaie.
Los's gaze fell on Xu Nian, with undisguised fondness in his eyes.
