I Became A Mighty Lion

Chapter 28: Killer in the water!

Views:

One month later.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter.

During this time, not a drop of rain fell.

Looking around, the grassland is already withered and yellow.

Except for the still green bushes.

The two baobab trees at the lion's camp are also beginning to lose their leaves.

Herbivores that were once afraid of lions have no choice but to risk their lives and come to the bushes to find food.

Some dangerous predators also frequent this lush bush for shade and prey.

Conflicts occur from time to time.

However, male lions do not have much energy to deal with these intruders.

As long as they don't get too close to the lion's camp, the male lions will pretend they haven't seen anything and will just drive them away occasionally to show off their strength and status as a lord.

Food is plentiful.

Lions can eat fresh flesh and blood almost every day.

The lioness and the cubs seemed very content with their lives.

Kelly, a lioness who had her children killed by an army of baboons, finally recovered from her grief and began to go into heat again.

Father Leng always stays with her.

Meimei, who was standing on the baobab tree, would immediately stop her practice every time she saw the scene of their mating, tilting her neck up, eyes wide open, and watching with curiosity.

The little curly tail, on the other hand, dismissed this.

Chu Xiaoye hung the baboon carcass that he picked up that time on the branch of this big tree.

Now, it has been dried and there is no smell of blood anymore.

Perhaps because of the bee venom, it did not rot when it was hung on the tree, nor did it attract any insects or predators.

As the blood and water in the corpse evaporated, the bee venom inside should also have disappeared.

Chu Xiaoye knew the horror of the dry season and decided to stock up on food in advance.

The poisonous bees in the bushes, their venom and the honey on their feet are the best antiseptics.

Now on the branches, not only the dried baboon, but also two dried hares and half of a fawn hung.

Hare and deer were all caught by him in the bush.

Then, he took advantage of the night, when the poisonous bees had weak eyesight, and suddenly threw them next to the hive.

As soon as those poisonous bees hear the noise, no matter who you are, they will immediately swarm out and attack with all their might.

In this way, these two prey were well preserved.

The food now is more abundant.

Therefore, Little Curly Tail and Meimei are not interested in the dry food on the trees.

They don't know that when the dry season comes in the future and food is scarce, they will probably gobble up even a piece of carrion on the ground, let alone these dry foods, and fight to the death!

at dusk.

The river at the foot of the hillside became lively again.

Due to the hot weather and dry air, the moisture provided in food can no longer satisfy the animals on the grassland.

Whether they are carnivores or herbivores, they need to drink water almost every day.

Lions Camp.

The lionesses were lying in the shade of the bushes, their mouths were dry from the heat, and they wanted to drink some water to quench their thirst.

However, the lion and Kelly haven't come back yet.

Lal and Gigi stood on the hillside, looking longingly at the river below and the animals drinking water, walking around impatiently.

They were also thirsty.

Brothers Chu Xiaoye and Meimei were still panting and doing various weird movements in the shadow of the bushes.

There are no leaves on the baobab tree.

The sun is too strong during the day, so we can only go up there at night.

It's getting dark.

The lion and Kelly finally returned together. They looked very sweet to each other, like a newly married couple.

Under the leadership of the male lion, the lions set off, walked down the hillside, and went to drink water from the river.

The male lion is in front, the lioness is on the left, right and behind, and the cub is protected in the middle.

The herbivores by the river were hiding away.

However, they did not run away, but walked to the river farther away to drink water.

They are so thirsty.

Moreover, this is not a place where lions hunt.

Even those cruel hyenas will not hunt easily when they come here.

There are too many carnivores and large animals here, all in groups and not easy to mess with.

Moreover, if chaos is caused, not only will the prey not be able to eat, but it may also be trampled to death.

Except, of course, for one ferocious animal.

"Wow!"

Not far away, water suddenly splashed!

When a zebra was lowering its head to drink water, a bloody mouth full of fangs suddenly jumped out of the turbid and calm river water, and bit into its neck!

Fortunately, the zebra was always vigilant. Before the bloody mouth could close, it suddenly jumped back and narrowly escaped!

The other animals drinking water nearby were all startled, jumped up one after another, and ran away in panic. The one standing not far away looked at it in horror, but did not leave.

Even if there is a danger of death, they still want to drink water.

To live.

It was a crocodile covered in armor and more than two meters long!

It didn't bite the prey, so it didn't stop any longer. It slowly retreated into the river, sank, and disappeared.

Perhaps, at a certain moment, it suddenly appears in another place without warning!

Chu Xiaoye was horrified when she saw it, and then glanced at the river water in front of her. The water was turbid, and it was impossible to see whether there was such a terrible thing hidden underneath.

He was a little scared.

Meimei was even more frightened. Even though she was very thirsty, she hesitated and did not dare to approach the river.

The lion looked over there solemnly, then walked to the river, lowered his head without hesitation, and started drinking water.

The lion's mane is lush and flamboyant, making him look extremely powerful and intimidating from the front!

Ordinary animals really wouldn't dare to provoke him.

However, for crocodiles, as long as you enter the water, no matter how mighty and domineering you are, you can only be a little brother!

The lion may be confident, or he may want to show his courage in front of his wife, concubines and children, or he may be aware that there are no crocodiles here.

Anyway, he drank slowly and easily.

At least that's what it seems.

The lionesses were also a little scared, but they were so thirsty that they had to approach him cautiously, walked to the river, and drank nervously.

Lal was extremely thirsty. Although he was frightened, he had no choice but to move closer and lower his head.

A black thing like a wooden stake slowly floated over from the middle of the river.

Little Curly tail also boldly approached.

Chu Xiaoye stood by the river and clearly saw the black thing, but he couldn't be sure whether it was a wooden stake or a killer.

But will the wooden pile float this way on its own

Obviously not!

"Ouch!"

He immediately sounded an anxious alarm to the lions who were bowing their heads in the river.

The lion raised his head, glanced at him coldly and contemptuously, ignored him, and continued to lower his head into the river.

I had been lingering with Kelly for a long time before, and now I was very thirsty.

And at this time.

The black thing suddenly sank and disappeared.

Seeing that everyone was drinking, Meimei was so thirsty that she couldn't stand it anymore, so she hurriedly got over and drank greedily.

Seeing that the thing suddenly disappeared, apparently lurking from the bottom of the water, Chu Xiaoye suddenly became anxious.
