Chapter 75: A New Place Los: In addition to snow leopards, there is also a group of Dong...
Los was already feeling guilty, and he was only two and a half years old. All he did was fight and hunt. He had never pretended to be injured before. Moreover, Kaie only asked him to pretend to be injured but didn't tell him how to end it. As a result, Los didn't make any arrangements and directly exposed the fact that he had recovered from his injury.
Its throat moved slightly, and it glanced at Xu Nian guiltily. It wanted to pretend to be cold and ruthless to avoid the words this time, but seeing Xu Nian's concerned eyes, Los looked down at his paws.
"I..." Los was still hesitating, and then he saw Xu Nian had jumped off the rock and walked towards it. Xu Nian's steps were steady, and he gently tilted his furry head, his eyes full of curiosity, as if guessing what Los was going to say.
The more obedient and honest Xu Nian acted, the more guilty Los felt. He finally lowered his head and leaned close to Xu Nian's ear, whispering, "I...I didn't get better until yesterday."
Xu Nian stood there in slight surprise. He was not surprised that Los was faking his injury, but that he had actually realized yesterday that Los might have been faking his injury. However, he came today to give Los a way out and let this wild snow leopard, who wanted to save face, get a more reasonable reason to explain the matter.
But unexpectedly, Los was so honest. He moved closer to Xu Nian, rubbed against him, and whispered, "My wound has healed, but I just want you to be by my side, and not leave with Luo Yin like before."
These words were even more beyond Xu Nian's expectations. He looked at Los with almost great surprise.
Xu Nian observed the snow leopard for a moment, and after confirming that it was telling the truth, he said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "I really didn't follow Luo Yin on my own initiative. I told you I couldn't smell and couldn't tell the difference between you and it, and it didn't tell me, so... I followed it. But you see, I'm back by your side now, and I'll always be by your side, year after year."
For Xu Nian, the words to coax the snow leopard came easily, but they were not false.
Good friends, walk together and walk together for a lifetime.
However, Xu Nian has been with Los for such a long time, and although he may not understand Los completely, he at least understands most of him. Los would definitely not come up with such a bad idea.
"Kaia will teach you this method." Xu Nian sighed. He guessed casually that it was Kaia.
Los shook his head first, then hesitated, nodded gently, and finally said: "It said that if you know how painful it is when I am injured, you will feel sorry for me and will not leave me with Luo Yin."
Originally, Xu Nian thought that Kaie asked Los to pretend to be injured to gain sympathy, but after hearing what Los said, Xu Nian's smiling eyes suddenly froze slightly.
He subconsciously lowered his head to look at Los's wound. Although it had healed, it was not difficult to guess that the injury must have been serious at the time, otherwise Kaie would not have said such words.
The most scheming thing these two wild snow leopards did was to discuss and decide to tell Xu Nian the truth about their injuries.
Xu Nian suddenly choked up in his throat, his eyes were a little red from the wind, then he moved closer to Los and licked him hard. He didn't say anything, but just tried to get closer to Los.
"Kaye was right." Xu Nian looked at the confused Los in front of him and added, "From now on, whether you are injured or feel uncomfortable, you must tell me. We are good friends."
Los tilted his head slightly, and it lowered its eyes to stare at its furry paws, and finally nodded solemnly.
Now that Los's injury has healed, they are ready to speed up and catch up with the prey in front.
As for the argali, Xu Nian no longer wanted to challenge it. After thinking carefully for an afternoon, he felt that he might be born to be incompatible with argali. Otherwise, why would he encounter all kinds of strange things every time he met an argali? In short, it is better to avoid it.
There are so many prey in the world anyway, and there is more than just one argali to eat, so why make things difficult for yourself?
But in the evening, Xu Nian was surprised to find that Los had brought in an argali sheep, yes, the same one as before.
Xu Nian once again felt the importance of having a good leopard friend with strong fighting ability.
So after eating and drinking, the two snow leopards, one in front and one behind, followed the flock and continued their journey. They would leave here and look for a more vast world and a more suitable place to live.
At this point, the blizzard that had been blowing for days stopped for a moment and the sun came out. Two snow leopards stepped on the snow, leaving a series of paw prints, but the paw prints would soon be covered up.
In this snowy field, countless animals are trying to survive, struggling desperately to extend their lives.
There is only one meaning for their efforts, everything is for survival.
…
"What is here?" Two snow leopard cubs followed a mother snow leopard. They were well-raised and at the age when they were a little naughty, crawling back and forth on their mother's body.
The snow leopard was obviously a little annoyed, and its tail was shaking gently, attracting the attention of its cubs until the cubs bit its tail. The snow leopard immediately became furious and turned its head to look at its two cubs who were causing trouble for it.
"Mom." The two snow leopard cubs sat side by side, tilting their heads slightly, looking at their mother with curiosity, and said, "When can we go hunting with you? I want to hunt too."
"Wait." Seeing the cubs' expressions, the snow leopard suppressed its temper. It wagged its tail again and said, "When you grow up a little, you can hunt. You are too young now."
These two cubs are so small that they can only chase their mother's tail in circles, and they may even fall down while doing so.
The snow leopard raised its head with some worry, looking at the falling snowflakes. The three snow leopards hid in a cave on the rock wall. This place was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was a good location for a cave. Usually when the snow leopards went out hunting, they would leave the two cubs here and tell them not to run around. The two cubs were also very obedient and understood that only by being obedient can they survive.
After all, the animals outside are not their mothers. If any other predators see them, they will have no choice but to die.
"Remember, don't come down." Before going down the mountain, the snow leopard turned back and warned, "Hide your head and don't get discovered."
"Okay, Mom." The two snow leopards responded immediately and crisply, their furry claws tightly grasping the rock wall, and then they lay down in the cave very sensibly, motionless, waiting for their mother to come back from hunting.
This time when the snow leopard went down the mountain, it was more cautious than usual, because there was not only the scent of prey around it, but also the scent of its own kind and even wolves.
No, there is another animal scent, and this is the opponent that the snow leopard is really worried about.
Xu Nian and Los followed the flock for a long time, stopping to rest along the way, and finally came to this almost completely unfamiliar place. This was where they lived before. The rock walls here were not so steep, which was good news for Xu Nian.
"There are no very steep cliffs here, which means that if we are chased, there is no absolutely safe place to hide." Relying on his rich combat experience, Los walked forward a few steps, gently twitching his nose, as if he smelled something, looked down, and then walked forward a few steps. He saw the body of a ibex, but only the head of the ibex was left, and the rest was torn apart. Judging from the scene, there should be at least four or five ibex fighting for this ibex.
Los smelled the scent of his own kind in this chaotic smell, but there were other smells that were very strange, very strange, a smell that Los had never smelled before.
"Be careful." Los looked back at Xu Nian and warned, "Follow me. There are not only snow leopards here, but also a group of creatures that I can't tell what they are. They smell strange, like wolves, but not quite... In short, they appear in packs."
Hearing this, Xu Nian immediately took a few steps forward obediently, determined to be a snow leopard that would never lag behind.
