evening.
A red sun hangs in the sky.
The grassland is golden.
However, here, no one has the leisure to appreciate the beauty of nature.
Leng's father's lions were still trapped in the same fear as before.
The mysterious death of the tailless lioness made the remaining four lionesses feel sad and frightened.
And the cold father.
Seno's tragic death did not make him feel relaxed, but instead made him even more uneasy.
What was it that killed them
but.
Soon, their bodies and consciousness were occupied by hunger.
There seems to be no hope of food on the tree.
The kid might want to keep it and enjoy it alone.
Although Father Leng and the lionesses were very dissatisfied, after all, he had brought all the food alone.
Moreover, they can’t get it.
So, when it got dark, they decided to go hunting and try their luck.
Maybe we can catch a few prey and have a full meal.
After the sun sets.
They immediately got up and set off.
They seemed to know that there was a huge danger hidden in the bushes behind them, so when they went out this time, they did not go from there, but went directly to the grassland.
Looking at their leaving figures, Chu Xiaoye's eyes flickered, but he didn't stop them.
Maya stayed behind to take care of the two lion cubs.
Chu Xiaoye glanced at her and then at the bushes behind her, recalling in his mind the scene when the figure was preparing for a sneak attack.
It will never give up!
Now, Father Leng left with the lioness, leaving only one adult lioness and other cubs in the camp.
It will definitely come back again!
Chu Xiaoye called out to Little Juanwei, Meimei, and Catherine, asking them to come over.
He couldn't speak and could only express himself through simple communication.
He led them to the jungle behind Maya, stopped in front of a big tree, and motioned to Little Curly Tail to climb up and hide.
The branches and leaves on this tree are still green and lush. Although they are all needle-shaped leaves, if you lie on it and don't move, it will be difficult to spot the animals walking under the tree.
The injury on the little curly tail's leg has recovered, and it is easy to climb or descend the tree.
He immediately climbed up, hid behind the dense branches and leaves, and looked down.
He saw that his brother was preparing to ambush the enemy.
Chu Xiaoye walked to the front of a big tree again and signaled Meimei to climb to the highest point and hide.
This way you can spot the sneak attacker as quickly as possible.
After Meimei climbed up the tree and hid, Chu Xiaoye immediately took Catherine to look for withered branches and leaves in the bushes nearby, picked them up with his mouth, and sprinkled them evenly on the grass leading to Maya's back.
In order to discover the sneak attacker as much as possible, he bit the dead branches into small sections to expand the coverage area.
In this way, once a sneak attacker approaches, he may step on these withered branches and leaves, making a sound in the silent night.
After doing all this, he immediately took Catherine, one to the left and the other to the right, into the two bushes behind Maya, staring closely outside.
From time to time he raised his head and looked at the little curly tail and Meimei on the tree.
If a sneak attack shows up, they'll be the first to notice.
Maya thought they were playing around, so she ignored them and did not dare to let the two lion cubs pass.
She lay there, closing her eyes and concentrating.
The night is very quiet.
In this dry night, there is almost no sound of insects.
In the bush, it's dark and gloomy.
Time passed bit by bit.
Soon it was late at night.
Little Curly Tail and Meimei were hiding in the tree, waiting patiently, their eyes meticulously staring at the wind and grass below.
Chu Xiaoye and Catherine also hid in the bushes, not daring to be careless.
Not only do they look at the ground, but they also look up into the trees from time to time.
However, there was no movement in the bushes.
The night passed quietly.
Soon, the eastern sky began to turn white.
Chu Xiaoye didn't know whether it was disappointment or relief. When she was about to climb out of the bush, she suddenly saw Meimei hiding in the big tree in front and moved her tail.
His heart suddenly tightened, and he looked into the distance with burning eyes.
"Click!"
A slight noise came from the bushland in front.
It’s the sound of dead branches!
At this time, the little curly tail hiding in a nearby big tree also moved its tail and tensed up, obviously discovering something.
Chu Xiaoye lay down in the bushes, holding her breath, motionless, staring at the dark bushes.
Soon, the tall figure covered with black and yellow patterns, with a low body, like a ghost in the night, quietly lurked from not far away.
It stood on tiptoes and walked very slowly, one step at a time, carefully and cautiously.
When it stepped on a dead branch, it immediately stopped, raised its ears, listened to the surroundings for a while, and then continued to move forward slowly.
Twenty meters!
Ten meters!
Five meters!
Chu Xiaoye saw it getting closer and closer. The strong and mighty body and the bright and cold eyes exuded a terrifying and powerful aura that almost suffocated him!
"Whoosh—"
When it reached a distance of three meters and suddenly stopped, Chu Xiaoye made a quick decision and rushed out suddenly!
It can't get any closer!
The eyes of this beast are already observing these two bushes!
It seems to have started to become vigilant!
The moment Chu Xiaoye rushed out, Catherine rushed out of the bushes next to her like lightning!
She suddenly jumped over him and rushed to the front. With a "swish" sound, she jumped up high and pounced on the beast ferociously!
At this time, Little Curly Tail and Meimei, who were hiding in the tree, immediately rushed down from the tree at the fastest speed, preparing to cut off the enemy's retreat!
"boom!"
A muffled sound!
Catherine, who had just rushed in front of the tiger, was suddenly hit by the tiger's claws, flew backwards, and fell to the ground in a panic!
At this time, Chu Xiaoye also bared his fangs and pounced forward ferociously!
The tiger suddenly jumped up, turned around, and with a "pop" sound, its thick and long tail slapped him hard on the head!
A sharp pain came from my head!
Chu Xiaoye couldn't help but tilted her head and fell heavily to the ground. She suddenly felt dizzy and had stars in her eyes!
"Ouch—"
Little Curly tail and Meimei also roared and rushed up from behind!
The king of the forest looked at them with a cold look, suddenly rushed forward a few steps, leaped high with a "swish" sound, and flew directly over their heads!
Then, with a few jumps, he disappeared into the dense bushes and the vast night.
Little Curly Wei and Meimei were stunned on the spot.
Catherine got up from the ground and rushed to Chu Xiaoye's side unsteadily.
Chu Xiaoye shook his head and climbed up from the grass.
There was a deep blood mark on his forehead.
Catherine's claws trembled slightly, and her dark eyes, as deep as the night sky, revealed a cold glare.
That damn bastard dared to hurt him!
Even if you hurt him, you dare to ruin his appearance!
Absolutely unforgivable!
Chu Xiaoye glanced at her, turned around, and returned to the camp.
He walked to the baobab tree, stretched out his paw, and pulled out a sharp arrow in the grass.
This sharp arrow almost shot through his hind leg.
He raised his head and looked at the bushes not far from Maya.
Since its hook is so big, don't blame him for opening a bigger hook!
