Chapter 17 Bullying the Leopard Too Much! Xu Nian: I suddenly understand Los...
"roar--"
“Ouch—”
Xu Nian fell into a deep sleep due to exhaustion, and in his dreams he was being chased by a wild bear, and even a group of wolves inexplicably joined in chasing him. He was so scared that he wished he could grow wings and run away quickly.
He felt like he was about to fly, running through the woods, and unknowingly ran to the snow-capped mountains, where he hid.
He thought the matter was over, but suddenly he felt something furry and soft in his mouth. Xu Nian bit his tail nervously, trying to ease the shock he had received.
Then I heard a muffled groan, and then a familiar voice sounded -
"You're saying you didn't mean it?!"
Xu Nian suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his dream, only to see Los gritting his teeth. He was holding his own tail in his mouth, then carefully put it down and lowered his head to lick the tip of his tail.
Xu Nian was still unconscious, and his reaction seemed to be a beat slow, causing his limbs to fly off in shock.
This movement startled Los, who was licking his tail. His limbs flew up and he looked at Xu Nian in shock, his heart pounding. He shouted angrily, "What are you doing?"
Xu Nian was also confused. He had no idea what he had done. Everything in his dream was a mess. After waking up, he was frightened and forgot most of it. He just looked at Los's explosive and irritable face, and then looked at his tail which was obviously swollen.
Xu Nian subconsciously licked his mouth with his tongue, and felt that it was full of hair. He had to raise his paw to scratch his mouth, and asked guiltily, "Why is your tail in my mouth?"
This question came to Los. Yes, why did its tail appear in Xu Nian's mouth?
Because at that time it was using its tail to shield the ungrateful snow leopard from the wind and snow!
But after Xu Nian asked this directly, Los's answer got stuck in his throat. His furry face looked a little serious. Xu Nian, knowing how to read his expression, approached him and quickly gave him an excuse, saying, "I must have been too hungry in my dream and accidentally bit your tail. Don't worry, I will take responsibility. I will definitely take responsibility. I take full responsibility."
When Los turned his head, the ear close to Xu Nian moved slightly, obviously he heard what was said.
"You don't know, in my dream I seemed to be chased by a brown bear and chased by wild wolves. I was hungry and tired, and hid behind a rock." Xu Nian sighed deeply. Life was already hard, how could dreams be so bitter? He raised his paw and waved it gently, saying, "I won't say anymore. These are just bitter tears."
He also picked at the hair in his mouth that was not cleaned. Normally, snow leopards do not shed their hair in this season, but maybe he bit it a little too hard.
As Xu Nian finished speaking, he heard another "Ouch!" sound in his ears. He immediately said, "That's the sound."
His raised paw paused slightly, and as if he suddenly woke up, he turned his head sharply to look at the place where the sound came from, and then said in surprise, "It's not a dream."
"Well, it's not a dream, it's the wolves howling." Los was used to it. He blew on the tip of his tail which was red, swollen and painful. He wondered if Xu Nian had a grudge against his tail, and then he turned his gaze to Xu Nian's long and thick tail dragging behind him.
No one can resist looking at the snow leopard's long tail, including the snow leopard itself.
"These wolves howl normally, but they howl so loudly tonight." Xu Nian climbed up and moved closer. He pricked up his ears to listen to the wolves' howling, but was very careful to move himself far away to avoid stepping on the tip of Los's tail, which was already injured.
Los, who was about to talk to Xu Nian, suddenly realized that Xu Nian was at least two snow leopards away from him. He frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Why did you run so far?"
"I'm afraid of stepping on your tail." Xu Nian said honestly: "If it really doesn't work, if you can't get angry enough..."
He made up his mind, swung his tail in front of Los, and said stubbornly: "Just bite it back."
The big furry tail was not easy to control. It swayed in front of Los, attracting his attention as if it were a large cat toy. Los was silent for a moment. Although he didn't want to look, his body instinctively followed the big tail left and right. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and pressed the unbridled long tail under his claws.
"Hmm?" Xu Nian turned his head to look at Los and tilted his head slightly, not understanding what the other party wanted to do.
"Don't move." Los said coldly: "I don't like to bite other snow leopards' tails. I have my own."
Xu Nian said "Oh" softly and squatted down obediently. In terms of body size, he was actually a normal snow leopard. However, Los's body size was much better. When the two snow leopards squatted face to face, Xu Nian looked smaller.
But because Xu Nian's fur is a little longer, it looks more furry and fluffy after being raised well. Its pair of leopard eyes are very smart. When looking at Los, it gives Los the illusion that the other party is looking at it intently.
Just as the two snow leopards were still staring at each other, they suddenly heard a series of tiny cracking sounds. They turned their heads and saw a disheveled snow leopard clinging to the rock wall. Although the snow leopard looked a little disheveled, Los and the others recognized who it was at a glance.
"Kaia?!" Xu Nian was shocked. He subconsciously glanced at Los, then stood between Los and Kaia. Taking advantage of his high ground, he dug his claws tightly onto the rock and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't you escape?!"
"Bah! Who ran away?" Kaie said angrily. "I retreated because I knew it was difficult."
Xu Nian admires animals that retreat when they know difficulty, because he also understands the concept of "retreat when they know difficulty".
"Why did you come back? Could it be..." Xu Nian took a step back and said cautiously, "You want to sneak attack us?"
Kaie was so angry that his claws that were gripping the rock wall were almost digging into the cracks. He looked at Xu Nian with gritted teeth, but met the gaze of Los who was standing behind Xu Nian. The snow leopard stood silently behind Xu Nian, slightly taller than Xu Nian, and fell on Kaie with cold eyes, as if if the other party could not give a reasonable answer, it would kick Kaie down with a claw.
"I was forced to come up here," Kaie gritted his teeth, enduring the humiliation. "After I left here, I encountered a pack of wolves. After I ran away, I encountered a brown bear. The brown bear chased me and I was surrounded by the wolves. Now I'm forced to climb the mountain."
Xu Nian: ...
Listening carefully, it seemed that this wild snow leopard was just as unlucky as he was.
"So? You want to fight me now?" Los tilted his head slightly, looking at Kaie warily. After making sure that Kaie couldn't leap over him, he let Xu Nian stand in front of him. He said slowly, "I'll give you two choices: either let me bite you to death, or get out of here."
It has no habit of sharing territory with other snow leopards.
Kaie, who is also a snow leopard, naturally knew that Los was not joking. He first glanced at Xu Nian, then at Los, wondering where he was lacking. In terms of combat power, he was far ahead of Xu Nian.
However, in the end, it could only attribute this reason to the fact that there might be something wrong with Los.
"I'll just hide here for a while and leave soon." Kaie listened to the wolf howling below that made the leopard's scalp tingle. He knew that the pack of wolves were probably preparing to surround him at the bottom of the mountain. He couldn't help but straighten his tail slightly, and looked cautiously towards the place where the wolf howling came from.
Los licked his paws and looked at the snow falling on him. It wasn't very heavy in the morning, but now it was almost a curtain of snow. He hooked his tail, which had been bitten again, and squatted not far away, not forgetting to instruct Xu Nian: "Keep a close eye on it, and don't let it come up."
"I understand." Xu Nian responded immediately. When he answered this, he habitually assumed the standard squatting leopard posture, with his furry limbs and big paws huddled together. He stared obediently and seriously at the snow leopard lying on the rock wall halfway up the mountain.
Los didn't drive it away, which was a little beyond Kai'e's expectation. It maintained this posture, not daring to go up or down.
It didn't even dare to attack Xu Nian directly. Although Xu Nian was squatting in front of it, the other snow leopard seemed to be resting, but in fact it was staring at this side with half-closed eyes. Kaie could even feel the other party's gaze as if it were real.
Just as Kaie was pondering what to do, he heard the well-behaved snow leopard whisper, "The wolves are in the north, and the brown bears are in the south. How did you encounter both brown bears and wolves?"
This question was asked, of course, assuming that Kaie could escape.
But Kai'e wouldn't admit it. Snow leopards weren't cowards, except for this one. It was furious and immediately said, "What do you mean? Are you saying I've been running away? Xu Nian, don't bully the leopards too much!"
The fragile and sensitive snow leopard was hit in the sore spot, almost like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and it almost jumped up.
Xu Nian didn't think there was anything shameful in running away. After all, life was the most important thing. He was so frightened that he took a step back and bumped into Los who had come over at some point. The other party just lowered his eyes to look at him, and then looked at Kaie calmly.
Kaier immediately coughed twice and whimpered like a big cat, instantly losing his arrogance. He was like a snow leopard that was very honest from beginning to end. He said, "Actually, this is not bullying."
It thought for a moment and added, "It's not like I can't bear it."
Xu Nian was silent. He began to understand why Los sometimes fell silent when they were talking.
This... really leaves me speechless.
