Chapter 99 Competition Xu Nian: The winner must agree to one condition of the loser...
The so-called "fighting back and forth with the mastiff" actually means that Kaier was playing with the mastiff, but it had finally received a compliment, so of course it would not ruin its own game so easily. It immediately held its head high and chest out, as if this was really happening.
In short, as long as it believes in itself, it can be a very powerful snow leopard.
After a quick meeting with Mu He, it didn't even remember what Mu He looked like, but it remembered Mu He's words, even every word clearly, and went back with its tail in its mouth.
Xu Nian was lying on the snow with Los after eating and drinking. They were covered with furry fur and were very cold-resistant. They would occasionally raise their paws to lick themselves, but would soon lie down on the ground again.
Looking at Xu Nian like this, Los often felt proud of himself for raising Xu Nian well.
It takes a lot of strength to keep a partner furry in such a cold season. Los licked his paws and came over from time to time to tidy up Xu Nian's fur, making him look more handsome.
Xu Nian didn't pay attention to what the snow leopard beside him was thinking. He was comfortably half-closing his eyes when he suddenly caught a glimpse of something not far away. Just as he was about to look more closely, he heard Los growling a warning towards that direction.
However, the sound wasn't a real threat of a fight; it was just a casual growl. Sure enough, the other party immediately raised a paw, poking its head with great difficulty, and cautiously said, "It's me."
Kai'e wagged its tail gently, and came to look for Los and Xu Nian with a happy mood, even holding a hard-earned rabbit in its mouth, although the rabbit looked very small.
"Didn't I tell you to live next door?" Ross half-closed his eyes and asked, "Why do you always come here for no reason?"
"Giving away rabbits, doesn't this mean I owe you a lot of rabbits?" Kaie was glad that he still had a reason, otherwise it would be difficult to find an excuse to approach Xu Nian. To be honest, Kaie felt that he would have to work hard for a few more years to take his nest back from Los's claws, but Kaie was not bragging, he felt that taking the nest away from Xu Nian's claws was a matter of minutes.
After all, it is very clear about Xu Nian's combat ability. At most, he is just a little smarter.
After hearing Kaie's words, Xu Nian turned his head to look at Kaie, and sure enough, he saw that he was holding a rabbit in his mouth. The rabbit was a pika, very small, but it was difficult to find prey at that time. Kaie was able to resist eating it, which showed his perseverance.
Xu Nian immediately became alert. Kaie was not a very perseverant snow leopard. There must be a deeper reason for it to do this, or it might be a conspiracy.
After all, there is a clear calculation in Kaie's eyes now. He is indeed a shrewd man, but he can't figure it out.
Sometimes from Kaie, Xu Nian suddenly realized that sometimes intelligence can be pretended, like Kaie.
"I'm really here to deliver the rabbit. I have no other plans." Kaie put the rabbit down and hesitated. Ross glanced at it and said, "Just put the rabbit down and leave. Why are you dawdling here?"
The weather was cold, and Los was half lying next to Xu Nian. There was a snow leopard that always liked to spoil the mood in the middle. Los looked at the other party unhappily, intending to let the snow leopard be more sensible and leave on its own.
But Kaie came this time with some careful thoughts. He had just been praised so much that he carried himself a little. Seeing Los's sharp claws, he became a little more sober. But after glancing at the lazy Xu Nian, he became confident again.
Although it can't beat Los, can it not beat Xu Nian?
"I..." Kaie faced Los's cold gaze, carefully lying on the ground, and slowly crawled towards them. With a hint of guilt in his eyes, he said, "I actually have something very important to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Xu Nian was also slightly surprised. He didn't expect Kai'er to come looking for him. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Kai'er. He found that the other party's guilty look was almost unable to hide. He sighed inwardly. As expected, he was a snow leopard. He felt guilty even when doing something bad. But he was also very curious about what Kai'er was going to do, so he pretended to be deep and said, "You tell me, I'm listening."
After saying that, he glanced at Los who was very dissatisfied beside him, flicked his tail lightly, moved over and rubbed against him, and said: "Los, let me see what it wants to do."
Although Los was unwilling, he knew that Kaie could not do anything to Xu Nian. After looking at Xu Nian, he stood up and left, jumping away from the rock wall, but in fact he did not go far. He just half-lay on the rock wall next to him, so that he could react immediately if anything happened.
As expected, after Los left, Kaie breathed a sigh of relief. He held his tail in his mouth and approached Xu Nian. He lowered his voice and asked, "Are you on guard against that powerful snow leopard?"
"Hmm?" Xu Nian casually wagged his tail. This was something he had mentioned to Kaie before, and he didn't understand why he suddenly brought it up. There was a hint of deep thought in his eyes, but his face didn't show it. He still looked very obedient, tilted his head slightly, and nodded, "Yes, that's right."
He scratched the snow with his furry paws, waiting for Kai's next words.
"When I came back, I detected its presence," Kaie whispered. "It said it wanted to negotiate a deal with you."
"What are the conditions?" Xu Nian's tail stopped wagging. He tilted his head slightly, his eyes calm. After his gaze fell on Kaie, he said with a half-smile, "Tell me about it."
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve spent too much time with Los, but now when Xu Nian speaks, Kaie pauses. For a moment, he even has a hallucination of Los, and always feels that Xu Nian has the shadow of Los on him. Although these two snow leopards don’t look alike at all, the way they speak sometimes is really too similar.
Kaie shuddered subconsciously, feeling that the leopard had plotted against him. His intuition told him to stop thinking and tell the truth, but he was not a snow leopard who believed in his intuition. He was rebellious, so he had to give it a try.
Kai'e avoided Xu Nian's gaze and said what he had been thinking all the way. "He said that as long as you give up this den, he won't bother with you. But if you keep occupying his den, don't blame him for being ruthless. He is a very good fighter, a powerful snow leopard who can fight with mastiffs in a back-and-forth battle."
Xu Nian: ...
"It's very powerful. Neither you nor Los can defeat it." Seeing that Xu Nian didn't agree, Kaie immediately continued, "You don't know, I met Mu He on the road. Mu He said that the snow leopard is very powerful. Even if the three of us joined together, we couldn't defeat it."
"Then how did you come back?" Xu Nian asked.
"Me? Ah..." Kai'e's mind was confused for a moment. This question was beyond his expectations. He said in a panic, "I...of course I walked back."
"I mean, since you encountered it, why didn't it fight with you? It just asked you to bring a message?" Xu Nian wondered, "That's really not common."
When Xu Nian said this, his eyes were actually looking at Kaie in front of him. He was half-lying slightly sideways, with his tail gently shaking behind him. His eyes fell on Kaie's side, and then he looked past Kaie and at Los behind him. They understood each other's meaning without saying anything.
Los, who was originally lying there to rest, stood up. He stepped very lightly on the snow and walked towards this side without making any sound. His nose moved slightly as he sniffed the scent around Kaie.
Then, Los shook his head slightly, indicating that he did not smell any strange scent.
"What does that strange snow leopard look like?" Xu Nian asked. "You've seen it, so you must know it."
"Of course I know. That powerful snow leopard looks very powerful, with obvious muscles. It runs very fast like a gust of wind, and its fur is shiny and smooth. You can tell at first glance that it is a powerful character who can take good care of itself." Kaie piled up a lot of good words, trying to explain that this snow leopard is really very powerful.
"He must be very handsome and looks like a powerful person." Xu Nian had a smile in his eyes.
"Of course." Kaie always felt something was wrong. When he turned his head to look at Xu Nian, the other party was already squatting on the ground, with his tail gently shaking behind him. He looked very well-behaved. Kaie had suffered a loss, so he subconsciously took a step back.
"It seems to be a difficult character." Xu Nian sighed and said slowly: "I was planning to suggest that we could have a competition with it to decide who owns this nest."
These words came so suddenly that Kai'e almost didn't react. After pondering Xu Nian's words for a moment, he suddenly became excited and stepped forward to ask, "Who are you competing with?"
"Of course it's competing with me. No, it should be said that it's competing with Los. However, I can participate in the competition on Los' behalf. In fact, it can also choose someone else to participate, such as Mu He or you. After all, you are the only ones who have seen the snow leopard so far." Xu Nian had a guess in his mind, but he was not sure. He stepped lightly on the snow with his paw and said slowly, "Isn't that right?"
Opportunity is fleeting, once lost, it will never come back.
Kaie, as a snow leopard, is well aware of this truth. It is rare that he can avoid a head-on battle with Los. He only needs to defeat Xu Nian to take back the nest. This kind of good thing is simply a mountain goat falling from the sky.
It immediately put on an embarrassed look, but its acting was actually very poor, and its tail was wagging excitedly behind it. But Xu Nian did not expose it, but just looked at Kaie, as if waiting for his answer.
Finally, Kaier sighed deeply, looking reluctant, and said, "Actually, I have some friendship with it. How about this, you take Los' place, and I'll take its place. What do you want to compete in? A fight?"
"Okay." Xu Nian nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's have a competition to catch ibex. The winner must agree to one condition from the loser. It doesn't just have to be the nest, any condition will do."
"!" The joy brought by these words overwhelmed Kai'e's mind. He immediately became excited and asked repeatedly, "Are you sure?! You can't go back on your word! Can you agree on behalf of Los?"
Xu Nian laughed, raised his head, looked behind Kaie, and asked, "Los, can I agree to this for you?"
Kaie was startled when he heard this, and turned around suddenly to see that Los had been standing behind him without him noticing at some point, but he had not noticed it from beginning to end.
"Yeah." Ross nodded and replied, "Of course."
This is Xu Nian, of course he can make the decision for him. He doesn't care whether Xu Nian wins or loses. At worst, he can just find a new nest, which is not a difficult thing.
The happiest person was undoubtedly Kai'e. The tip of his tail trembled slightly twice, his eyes lit up, and he chuckled, saying, "Don't regret it, Xu Nian. Don't cry if you lose."
"Of course I won't cry if I lose." Xu Nian shook his tail lightly and said, "I always keep my word."
Kaie confidently flicked his tail and went down the rock wall. Xu Nian followed him, and Los followed closely behind. They were heading to the place where the mountain goats had been before. It was not an easy task to hunt a mountain goat.
But for the nest, Kaie fought hard! He must get its nest!
