Chapter 64 Xu Nian wakes up Xu Nian: I almost died
Heavy snow covered the entire snowfield, and the falling snowflakes piled up together, quickly covering up some traces of sliding.
At the bottom of the cliff, a brown bear was dead, and its blood had coagulated. It was obvious that the brown bear was not lucky, as its stomach was scratched by the sharp edge of the rock, and blood was flowing all over the ground.
Not far away, a snow leopard was also lying in the snow, its eyes closed, its life or death unknown. Its fur was fluttering in the biting cold wind, and its tail hung lifelessly to the side.
Several vultures have begun to share the food of the brown bear. Of course, a few vultures are staring at Xu Nian, but the snow leopard is obviously not dead yet, so the vultures can only stare at it, and no one wants to be the first vulture to try.
Anyway, the brown bear carcass next to them is enough for them to eat for a long time, so there is no need for them to take any more risks. Or they can wait until the wind and snow are stronger, or when the snow leopard is completely motionless, or when the snow leopard is dead. It will be safer for them to share the food.
The vultures spread their wings and flapped twice, their eyes full of greed and desire as they cast them at the snow-covered snow leopard.
Death is the most common thing happening in this snow-capped mountain. An animal dies every day, perhaps a pika or a snow leopard.
The heavy snow did not stop because of this incident. Instead, it tended to get heavier and heavier. Soon, a thick layer covered Xu Nian's somewhat messy fur, almost covering his furry ears.
Xu Nian was in a coma and couldn't wake up at all. He seemed like he was dead.
However, not far from here, two snow leopards were walking one after the other, sniffing as they walked.
"The smell seems to be on the mountain." Kaier, who was standing in front, lowered his head to sniff, then raised his head to look at the mountain. He tilted his head slightly, feeling a little confused. So he turned his head to look at Los beside him and asked, "Is it my illusion? Why do I feel like we have been here before?"
"Yeah." Los hadn't found Xu Nian for several days, and the snow leopard's temper was about to explode. Its tail was held behind it, and its eyes were fierce. After hearing Kaie's words, it turned its head and glanced at Kaie beside it.
It said nothing, but Kai'e had been tamed. It immediately fell silent, lowered its head and sniffed the scent of the snow very skillfully, sighing softly from time to time.
In fact, it no longer had much hope of finding Xu Nian. After all, that was Luo Yin. Xu Nian and it had not only met several times, but also lived together for a period of time. They were only separated because of the blizzard.
To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the snowstorm, Xu Nian wouldn't have met Los. Based on who came first, Xu Nian would most likely have followed Luo Yin.
However, it only dared to think about this in its heart but did not dare to say it out loud. It used to think that Luo Yin wandered near Los's territory to fight with Los and seize his territory. Now it thinks that it may not be to seize the territory, but to seize a furry and beautiful snow leopard.
"Smell faster." Los was very dissatisfied with Kaie's speed. He let go of his tail, and the free tail swung gently, and then slammed heavily on the ground. Snowflakes flew, which gave Kaie enough deterrence.
While Kaie was trying hard to smell, he felt that Xu Nian's choice was indeed the right one. Following Luo Yin, at least his emotions were stable. Following Los was too much suffering.
"Hmm?" Kai'e suddenly stopped, raised his head in confusion, then lowered his head and sniffed again.
"What's wrong?" Los was sniffing on the other side and noticed that Kai'er's reaction was not right, so he immediately asked.
In the past few days, Kaie was startled like this from time to time. At first, Los would be very excited and rush over to sniff it. After several false messages, it got used to it, but as long as Kaie reacted, it would come over immediately.
In the past, it would have raised its claws to hit Kaie, but this time it didn't. It didn't want Kaie to stop reporting the news out of fear. Every little clue was an important clue to it in finding Xu Nian.
"I feel like there's something wrong with the smell here, but I can't tell what." Kaie raised his paw and scratched his ear, then lowered his head to sniff, and then looked at the towering snow-capped mountains again.
Los came over and sniffed it. At first, his expression was calm, but after sniffing, he frowned slightly, then remembered something and suddenly raised his head to look at the mountain wall. After a pause, he immediately said, "This smell... It's only been there a short time ago, at most half a day."
And this smell is from Xu Nian.
This was the best news Los had heard in the past few days. He immediately turned around and said, "Keep sniffing. Xu Nian must be here."
Kaie lowered his head and sniffed consciously without being told. In the past few days, Kaie sniffed more times than from the time he was born until the avalanche.
Los also lowered his head and sniffed. He didn't dare to really pin all the clues of Xu Nian on Kaie.
After a while, Los discovered that there was something wrong with the smell. It was clearly coming from the front, but it was somewhat vague, and there was even a little bit of another smell.
It sniffed again and its expression suddenly changed. The smell was clearly from a brown bear.
As for Luo Yin's smell, it was completely ignored by it and didn't even mention it.
"The smell is heading up the mountain," Kaie said immediately. "There's also the smell of a brown bear. He must have been chased by a brown bear. But it looks like Xu Nian has climbed up. He's fine... Brown bears can't compare to us snow leopards at climbing mountain walls."
After saying that, it immediately continued to lower its head and sniff, trying to find out where Xu Nian had climbed up from, and prepared to climb up as well. It always felt that the smell of Xu Nian was quite strong around it, and even had the illusion that it was getting stronger and stronger.
"The smell here is so strong!" Kaie lowered his head and sniffed, somewhat shocked. "It feels like Xu Nian has only been here a short time. The smell is so strong!"
Upon hearing this, Los, who was about to climb the cliff, stopped and looked in the direction of Kaie. Then he walked towards this side. Just as he walked next to a large rock, he felt as if his claws stepped on something. However, the snow leopard's paw pads were a little rough, and because he had been running on the rock wall for many years, he thought it was a small stone and did not take it seriously.
Just as it was about to lower its head to sniff, it lowered its eyes and found a small ball of fur sticking up under its paw.
The furry little ball exploded like a small ball of fur. Los was startled and subconsciously took a step back. Then he found that what he accidentally stepped on was not a small stone, but the snow leopard's tail covered with thick snow. He just stepped on the tip of the tail.
Maybe it was really hurt by being stepped on, and its tail even curled up weakly. Los could tell at a glance that this beautiful long furry tail was clearly Xu Nian's tail!
"Xu Nian!" Los almost immediately followed the tail and dug away the snow, and saw Xu Nian lying next to the rock, covered by thick snow, almost suffocating.
Xu Nian was lying on the ground with a little blood on his teeth, which made Los' pupils shrink suddenly. He looked at Xu Nian lying in the snow. His fur seemed to have lost its luster. It was not only messy but also very gray. It was completely different from its previous beautiful and fluffy appearance.
Los's expression was blank for a moment. His body reacted faster than his brain. He lowered his head to smell Xu Nian's scent, licked Xu Nian's body and face, and whispered, "Xun Nian, wake up and look at me."
Xu Nian did not react. He fell quite hard, and the whole snow leopard looked a little dead.
Los immediately set his eyes on Xu Nian's tail. If the hair on the tail had not stood up in pain, Los would have thought that his snow leopard had fallen to death.
"This is really Xu Nian... Why is it like this?" Kai'e was also a little surprised. "Isn't it with Luo Yin? Why is it living such a miserable life?"
Hearing this, Los bared his fangs and uttered an extremely furious voice, saying word by word: "Luo Yin, that piece of trash!"
Kai'e didn't even dare to breathe, for he was afraid that breathing would be a death sentence.
It watched as Los licked Xu Nian's face very gently, then held the other's body in its mouth and dragged Xu Nian along the snow towards the cave. Xu Nian's body was starting to become stiff because the temperature was even lower here. Kaie followed carefully and helped to support him.
It actually felt that Xu Nian was not going to survive. It seemed that his internal organs were injured when he fell, otherwise there would not be blood on his mouth.
But it dared not speak, for fear of death.
It watched as Los stayed by Xu Nian's side, not eating or drinking, trying to warm Xu Nian's cold body, licking him from time to time, without saying a word, stubbornly waiting for Xu Nian to wake up.
At this moment, Luo Yin was already standing on a protruding rock wall. He looked down at the corpse of the brown bear below, where a large number of vultures were perched.
It looked around but found no trace of Xu Nian, but it could see a pool of blood, with several vultures walking back and forth on the blood, pecking at the blood with their heads down.
"..." Luo Yin looked at the vultures and corpses below with an indescribable expression.
It felt that the next time it met Los, the other party would probably be looking for it to kill it.
It's over, all over.
…
"pain……"
In the midst of a heavy snowstorm, three snow leopards lay in a cave, two of them cuddling each other, and one was shielding itself from the wind and snow at the door.
Xu Nian closed his eyes tightly, and even in his sleep he was still mumbling softly and crying out in pain.
A furry tail was draped over his matted fur belly, and a little blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, indicating that he had fallen quite hard, and his whole body was still shaking slightly.
But this was much better for Los, at least compared to when he first discovered Xu Nian. The other party was lying on the snow almost motionless, his fur covered with a thick layer of snow, and his abdomen was almost motionless. Los was really panicked at that moment.
It dragged Xu Nian here with great effort, used its body to keep him warm, and finally warmed up the frozen snow leopard.
"Xu Nian?" Los heard the voice and looked down at the half-dead snow leopard in his arms. He had spent a lot of effort to keep the other party well-maintained, but in just a few days, Xu Nian became like this, lying alone in the snow.
The snow leopard in his arms just closed its eyes and cried out in pain. When Los licked it gently, it slowly opened its eyes. Maybe it was stunned by the pain, or maybe it hadn't reacted yet. It subconsciously kept its eyes open, staring blankly ahead.
"You're awake?!" Los didn't expect Xu Nian to open his eyes just like that. He immediately moved closer in surprise, rubbing Xu Nian even harder, wrapping his tail around him tighter. He raised his paws to hug Xu Nian and whispered, "You're finally awake. Didn't I tell you to follow me? Why did you go with Luo Yin? Look at the consequences of following him! He couldn't protect you in the snowstorm before, and you were seriously injured. Then you met me. Have you forgotten everything? You actually dared to go with him?! I know, he must have coerced you."
Kaie, who was outside, shook his ears and swore that this was definitely the word he had heard Los say the most in such a long time. Usually, Los was too lazy to even give him a look.
It took Xu Nian a while to come back to his senses. He turned his head and saw an enlarged version of the handsome snow leopard's face. The furry face even rubbed against him.
"Luo Yin?" Xu Nian was confused and hadn't reacted yet.
The tail wrapped around him stiffened instantly, and the snow leopard in front of him bristled with fur at a speed visible to the naked eye. Suppressing his anger, he gritted his teeth and said, "What did you yell at me for?!"
