That chicken made a beeline for the horned sheep!
A lion followed closely behind it.
Not only that, behind the lion, Haru also saw a tiger!
The tiger kept chasing after the lion's butt very fiercely.
Haru was dumbfounded: What kind of triangular food chain relationship is this? Lions chasing chickens, tigers chasing lions, etc... What a mess!
When he stayed still, he missed the best time to rescue the flock. When he woke up, the lion had already pounced on the hind legs of a horned sheep very skillfully. The horned sheep struggled desperately. When it was about to break free, the tiger also caught up and pinned down the other leg of the poor horned sheep.
This coquettish position, this skilled movement... This, this, this is obviously a habitual offender!
Haru, who had been hiding among the horned sheep and quietly observing everything, finally couldn't take it anymore.
He jumped out of the flock!
Here I want to introduce the horned sheep.
Horned sheep is a kind of sheep with inwardly turned horns. It has various coat colors. Most of them are white with black spots, or black with white scarf, or four-footed snow. Meng Jiuzhao and the others have eaten it before, and the adults are near the tribe. Most of the horned sheep that were hunted were white, and the flocks that the cubs found today were mostly white and black.
Haru's prototype is also black and white.
So, when he was quietly hiding among the horned sheep, the cubs didn't notice anything wrong at all. Even when he jumped out, Paula and Naji, who couldn't wait to start eating meat, didn't feel anything unusual.
When Haru got very close to them, Bora and Naji reluctantly let go of the meat in their mouths under Louis's gesture, and looked at the "horn sheep" running towards them casually—
Only then did they realize that the other party was not a horn sheep at all! It was a creature they had never seen before.
However, it was too late to escape, the guy running towards them suddenly turned into a human form not far from them, he suddenly threw out a strange thing, and then Paula and the others were completely covered!
Haru tightened the net in his hand.
I don't know where the sheep thief came from. He had already spread traps all over the land when he decided to catch the thief. In addition, he also prepared a lot of nets, which really came in handy now.
Looking at the struggling lion and tiger in the net, Haru let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, these two "sheep thieves" were still cubs. If they were adults, he would definitely not be able to beat them. Even if they were cubs, without the cooperation of snares and traps, to be honest, he was not sure that he could catch them.
"Poor little guy, you are probably raised by someone else, right? You are lucky to meet me." Looking at the most struggling "chicken" in the net, Haru sighed, yes, and the chaser Locked together, who will struggle desperately
Haru cut a corner of the net with a stone knife and released the chicken.
"Let's go, let's go home."
Haru waved at the stunned sweater chicken, then ignored it, put the dead horned sheep in the net, picked up the net, and heard him whistle, the sheep The group automatically followed him.
Haru and the horned sheep left.
"Chirp!?" The chick released by Haru—Louis chirped stupidly.
Because there were not many horn sheep left, Paula and Naji said they could handle it, so Louis was left to hunt with the two females, and Meng Jiuzhao went to pick fruits with the other cubs.
Unexpectedly, instead of bringing back a horned sheep, Paula and Naji were captured instead.
But Ah Tu (==///Meng Jiuzhao would be pissed off if he knew that Louis had always called himself that in his heart) and told him that he would catch at least one horned sheep and go back!
Louis immediately opened his paws and chased after Haru where he disappeared.
Although he looks like a chicken, he is not a chicken. Louis has very good physical strength and runs very fast, so he smoothly caught up with Haru who was slowly walking with a group of horned sheep.
Although Louis approached Haru very carefully, but Kantas's weight limited his lightness after all, Haru still found him.
Turning his head suddenly, Haru saw a smear of egg yolk that he thought was hidden behind the bushes.
Seeing the exposed half of the sweater sleeve, he immediately figured out the identity of the pursuer.
Many small animals are like this. Once they are rescued, they will feel dependent on the person who saved them← Haru took it for granted.
So, Louis secretly followed Haru to the brown earth tribe where he was, thinking that he was very secretive.
***
"Hey! Haru, have you caught the sheep thief?" There are always people guarding the gate of the brown earth tribe. Haru, who grazes every day, knows all the gatekeepers very well.
"Caught it." Haru held up the net in his hand, although the gaps in the net are not big, there are still gaps, people can easily see the things inside. The lifted lion opened its mouth ferociously.
"My God! Lions and tigers!" The guarding tribe member, visibly startled, recoiled.
"Don't be afraid, they are still very small, and the net is very strong, they can't break free~" Haru comforted him.
The two chatted for a while, and the guard noticed the little tail attached to Haru's back with sharp eyes.
"Huh? What's that?"
Haru turned sideways quietly. He thought that the chicken would leave when it saw the tribe, but unexpectedly it was still there.
"When the two lions and tigers were caught, they were chasing the chicken. I rescued it, but it kept following."
"Haha! It really has spotted you! I think Haru you have a talent for raising chickens. Anyway, you don't have many horned sheep anymore. Would you like to try raising chickens?"
Haru smiled and said a few more words to the guard, and he drove the remaining five horned sheep into the tribe.
The guard looked at the poking chicken amusedly, looking like he wanted to follow Haru in, but he seemed afraid that he would not dare to come over. After thinking about it, he pretended to have something to leave and quietly hid aside.
The chicken really ran into the tribe quickly.
Ha ha! so fun! The guard immediately decided to go back and tell this incident as a joke in the tribe.
***
After confining the two little beasts in the pen where the horn sheep used to be, Haru placed the remaining horn sheep in a neighbor's sheep pen. These days I have been worrying about catching the thief, and I can't sleep well. Now that the thief has been caught, Haru arranges the things at hand, simply eats some jerky, and then goes back to the nest to catch up on sleep.
Paula and Naji, who were thrown into the fence by the net, were terrified. They had never been treated so roughly.
They were unable to take human form due to excessive fear. In fact, this is a way for the cubs to protect themselves. The appearance of a beast is much stronger than that of a human. In a dangerous situation, the cubs will instinctively maintain a more dominant body shape.
Frightened, scared, the two girls' stomachs suddenly became hungry, and then they saw the dead horned sheep (Haru forgot to take it out) that was tied up with them in the net.
Only with a full stomach can we have the strength to think. The two cubs looked at each other, and with great difficulty gnawed on the horned sheep that was pressed together with them.
So when Louis found them, there was only one head left of the horn sheep.
