Chapter 94: Kaier Kaier, very tactful: He got angry and turned around...
Mastiffs were previously raised by herders to protect cattle and sheep, and to drive away snow leopards or wild wolves. They tend to eat a lot, are very good at fighting, have a ferocious temperament, and are not afraid of death.
They were once the best companions of the herdsmen, dedicating their entire lives here and having simple and honest personalities.
Los did not kill the mastiff, and it was seriously injured from the fight with the wolves. After Kaie dragged it out, he just squatted beside it.
This was all Kaier could do. After all, he was just a snow leopard and could do nothing else. In fact, death was a common occurrence in the wild. Kaier was used to it. Their growth was often accompanied by injuries and death. They usually just licked their wounds and moved on.
When the mastiff regained consciousness, Kaie ignored it. Out of a friendly gesture, he caught a marmot and placed it in front of the mastiff. He then said, "I have to leave now. Come home after you finish eating. Only then will you recover."
Kaie knew that these mastiffs had owners, unlike the wild ones. Mastiffs could go back and get their wounds treated if they were injured, but wild animals could only endure the injuries. If they could endure, they would live, and if they couldn't, they would die.
The most frightening thing is being half-crippled, which is a life worse than death, and in the end people will starve to death.
Kaie flicked his tail lightly and walked towards the depths of the snow. There was no scent of wolves around and the mastiff could walk. After eating the marmot, it could go back. Kaie's back disappeared in the snow.
…
The two little snow leopards followed Mu He for a walk outside, and then reluctantly returned to their den at Mu He's urging. Mu He took the two little snow leopards to hide in the cave on the cliff, avoiding other predators, especially wolves or brown bears.
"Mom, can I hunt rabbits by myself tomorrow?" asked the little snow leopard.
Mu He seemed to be thinking about something and did not answer the little snow leopard. Its nose moved slightly, as if it was sniffing something.
"Mom?" The other little snow leopard tilted its head slightly, its eyes filled with confusion and the unknown outside. It asked curiously, "Are we going hunting tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow..." Mu He seemed to have made up his mind. He said, "I'll take you to another place."
More and more snow leopards are coming here. Although its current burrow can avoid wolves and brown bears, it does not pose any obstacle to other snow leopards, especially since it has two cubs. If it is targeted by its own kind, it will not be a good thing.
Mu He looked at his paw with an old injury, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
"Okay, mom." Although they didn't know the reason, the little snow leopards were very obedient. They gathered around Mu He, one on the left and one on the right. The three furry heads of mother and her cubs appeared from the cracks in the rock wall. They looked at the wind and snow outside together, praying that the blizzard would stop soon, spring would come soon, and they could all grow up safely.
At this moment, Los and Xu Nian were looking at the remaining ibex. The two snow leopards were full and lay down directly. They were always like this, leaning against each other whenever they had nothing to do. This cave was just suitable for them to be in such a close-fitting posture.
A vulture landed nearby and Los chased it away at first. But after seeing Xu Nian sleeping flat on his back, it naturally lay down beside Xu Nian. However, its tail had not healed yet, so it didn't dare to put its tail on Xu Nian's abdomen for fear of secondary injury. But after Xu Nian healed himself, it used its furry claws to touch his abdomen, which also bulged. The hair on his abdomen looked much smoother. After thinking it over, Los couldn't help but put his tail gently on Xu Nian's side, then turned around and licked Xu Nian's cheek, whispering, "Are you still thinking about that snow leopard?"
In fact, if Los hadn't mentioned it, Xu Nian would have almost forgotten about it. But as soon as he mentioned it, Xu Nian immediately remembered it, and his furry ears stood up instantly. He said, "No, but when you mentioned it, I remembered it. How about this, we take turns to keep watch at night to prevent it from attacking us at night."
"You go to sleep." Los rubbed Xu Nian gently. He loved the feeling of being close to Xu Nian. He felt like he would never get tired of it for the rest of his life. He sniffed Xu Nian's scent and said, "I'll pay attention to my surroundings."
At this moment, a feared snow leopard was sniffing around, looking for its own nest. It clearly remembered that it was nearby. That was the territory it had conquered, and it was a perfect place to sleep.
It was looking everywhere with its tail up, moving back and forth in the snow. The Tibetan fox, who was just about to go out, stuck its head out and almost bumped into Kaie. It was so scared that it turned around and retreated into the small cave it had just found with its family.
After Kaie left, the Tibetan fox family set out on their migration again.
"Why is there the scent of Los and Xu Nian around here?" When preparing to climb up, Kaie smelled the scent of Xu Nian and Los, especially Los. It was obvious that it was marking this territory. Kaie stood there and thought for a while, considering whether to go up or not. If it met Los, would Los remember that he was deceived last time.
凯厄说到底是有些心虚的，比较担心自己会挨揍，春天挨揍就算了，这可是冬天，不太扛揍的，它下意识扭过头舔了舔自己身侧的绒毛，就在思考的时候听到了身后不远处的林子里传来了阵阵狼嚎声，声音悠长，紧接着便有其它狼相互回应，看得出来是一个大狼群。
This time Kaie didn't hesitate at all. He jumped onto the rock and walked up the rock wall. Being beaten by Los was better than being besieged by a pack of wolves. Besides, Kaie had his own nest. If nothing worked, he could just stay in the nest and avoid hunting with Los and the others. They could get along for a while.
Besides, it still owes a debt to the rabbits of Xu Nian. Even for the sake of the rabbits, it should show some mercy.
Kaie convinced himself as he climbed the mountain.
In the evening, Xu Nian still felt very full and decided to stroll around and take a look at the situation nearby. Los followed Xu Nian not far away, watching him slowly climb the rock wall, and occasionally lying on the rock wall to rest. Los was by Xu Nian's side.
"How powerful is that snow leopard Mu He mentioned?" Xu Nian thought for a moment and said, "We need to look around. It would be best if we can advance and retreat."
Xu Nian always likes to leave a way out for himself when doing things. He often likes to make big things small and small things nothing, because no one will support him. So others say that he has a good personality and never gets angry. In fact, he knows that being angry will only intensify the conflict and put himself in a situation where he has no way to retreat and no one to rely on, so he must learn to leave a way out for himself.
But Los was different. It never left itself a way out and always fought directly. However, this time, after listening to Xu Nian's words, it did not refute. It took Xu Nian around the cave in a calm manner, as if it was really looking for a way out.
In other words, it was looking for a hiding place for Xu Nian, and would come find Xu Nian after the fight.
The two snow leopards walked along the rock wall and found a relatively secluded cave. It was small, only able to accommodate one snow leopard. If it accommodated two, it would be very crowded. Los licked Xu Nian and said, "Just like before, if there is any danger, hide here, and I will come back to find you."
Xu Nian remembered that when they lived in the snowy mountain before, Los took him to the cave in the rock wall and told him to hide there and it would come back to find him.
Xu Nian couldn't help but move over and rub against Los. This snow leopard was really very good.
Xu Nian couldn't refuse at all and didn't want to leave.
At this moment, another snow leopard that had "fought back and forth with the mastiff" stood outside its former cave, looking at the blue sheep corpse outside the cave, and then looked inside the cave. It looked around in shock, then took a step, approached carefully, sniffed with its nose, and finally its facial expression completely froze, with disbelief in its eyes.
"What do you mean? My nest is occupied by these two?!" Kaier was slightly furious and slapped the ground with his claws. "Luckily I know other nests, otherwise I really would have nowhere to go!"
