Young tiger cubs are not yet able to survive on their own.
Even if the animals in the fairyland have not developed intelligence, they grow and age much slower than ordinary animals. At first glance, these two little tigers don't seem to be much bigger than cats. They suddenly lost their mother, and it would be difficult for them to survive even in the fairyland.
The little animals in the forest are all compassionate and naturally cannot bear to see the orphaned cubs wandering outside, but where to place such small tiger cubs becomes a problem.
Xueli saw that the little animals all wanted to take care of them, but they seemed to have concerns and didn't dare to make up their minds. After thinking for a while, she said, "Why don't you keep them with me first? Although these two little tigers are still young, they are fierce beasts after all. You animals who are too small will definitely have some inconveniences. I can transform into a human body, so it should be much better anyway."
Bai Lu said worriedly, "But aren't you already taking care of the big snow wolf? It will be very tiring to take two little tigers back with you."
"The big snow wolf's injury has passed the most difficult time. I just need to change the dressing regularly. These two little tigers are still young. As long as we think of a way, we will definitely be able to solve it."
As she spoke, Xue Li glanced at the Snow Wolf beside her and said, "Besides, the Snow Wolf is relatively big. There are two of us, so if necessary, he can help me."
The problem of housing is indeed difficult.
Small animals like rabbits live in holes they dig themselves, so tigers can't fit in. Monkeys live in trees. It's no problem to keep two tigers in the deer's den, but she is a deer without claws and can only rely on kicking. If something happens, it will be difficult to control the two little tigers.
After looking around, it turns out that Sydney is the most suitable place to live.
What Xue Li said made sense, but the little animals still felt bad and looked at each other in bewilderment.
At this time, a little rabbit raised its paw and suggested, "It's not good to let Xueli take care of the two little tigers all the time. Why don't we take care of them together? We can take turns to bring them food, give them a bath, and so on."
As soon as the rabbit made the suggestion, the small animals all looked enlightened. After considering it, they all nodded in agreement and expressed their willingness to contribute.
"Then Sydney will just have to let the little tigers live there!"
"No need to think about finding food for the little tiger to eat!"
Everyone was talking excitedly.
This will indeed reduce a lot of Sydney's burden.
"thank you all."
Xueli said gratefully, "Then I will temporarily place these two little tigers here. When they grow up a little, I can consider finding a cave or building a nest for them nearby."
Everyone agreed with Xue Li's idea.
So that's how it was settled.
Xueli looked at the little tigers lying on the ground crying and said, "Let them stay with their mother for a while longer. I will go home and prepare some food for them to sleep and come back to pick them up in the evening."
"Then I'll go back and see if there's anything I can give the little tiger to eat!"
"I'm here with them in case they feel uncomfortable or run away."
The little animals divided the work after a few words. When no one had any objection, Xue Li waved goodbye to the little animals and went home.
Zi Lan wasn't quite sure what they discussed, but he guessed that they had reached a consensus. Seeing Xue Li leaving, he no longer wanted to linger and followed her silently.
The two returned home soon after.
Zi Lan could see that although Xue Li tried her best to appear calm, she was actually not in a very good mood.
He wanted to get closer to Xue Li to guess what was going on, but as soon as he entered the cabin, Xue Li suddenly turned back into a little nine-tailed fox and buried herself in his fur!
“Ouch!”
This time was different from last night. Zi Lan could clearly feel that Xue Li's mood was different from last night. She was actually very sad and upset, but she didn't show it when she was outside because she was afraid of affecting other people.
Zi Lan was standing at this time, and Xueli actually fell on his legs. He thought about it, then lay down silently and hugged Xueli in his arms.
Xue Li did not resist this time and buried herself in the fur. The fur in front of the big snow wolf was soon wetted by her tears.
"I couldn't get it back," Sydney said.
"The two little tigers are still so young. They must be very sad without their mother."
"If only my medical skills were more sophisticated, I could bring the dead back to life. If only my cultivation was better, I could sense the thunderstorm in advance and find out that they are still outside."
Zi Lan listened to Xue Li crying "wooo" and "wooo" in his arms. Although he didn't understand her language, he could roughly guess what she was thinking.
Xue Li is the only proper fairy in the fairyland, and it is a heavy task for her to bear the responsibility of the entire fairyland.
Sometimes, even though you have tried your best to do something well, the final result is still not satisfactory.
There are some things that one can only do with limited ability. Xueli has done a good job. She has reached a level of cultivation that is rare for someone her age and possesses superb medical skills. It is not her fault that she cannot bring the dead back to life.
It's not just Xue Li. Even the Wolf King, who has great cultivation and more experience, may not be able to do everything perfectly at this time.
But precisely because the responsibility is so great and the abilities are expected of them, one feels more and more insignificant in the face of the unpredictable destiny, and feels powerless in the face of life and death in the world.
Zi Lan had seen similar silent expressions on his parents' faces more than once, and because he knew everything, he felt the same way.
What they can do now is to try their best to handle the follow-up work, learn from experience, do their best and leave the rest to fate, so as to strive to save more people next time.
Zi Lan lowered his head and looked at the depressed white little fox who was huddled up beside him and curled up into a small ball. He leaned his head over silently and comforted her silently.
Xue Li buried herself completely in the thick and fluffy fur of the big snow wolf, sobbing.
Soon, she felt the big snow wolf lower its head, put its forehead on her back, and touch her gently.
Xue Li herself didn't know what was going on. Some things that were difficult to say to others were unknowingly said to the big snow wolf.
Maybe it was because she knew that the big snow wolf couldn't understand her language, or maybe it was because the big snow wolf would do something to comfort her no matter what.
Xue Li didn't expect too much at first, but strangely enough, she felt that the big snow wolf seemed to really understand her thoughts.
His movements were very gentle, and he was more careful than usual in encircling her.
Xue Li raised her head and met the big snow wolf's deep eyes staring at her, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Xueli felt embarrassed about being seen through, but she also felt relieved that someone could accompany her and understand her at this time. She had almost cried enough, so she held back her tears, went up to the big snow wolf and gently licked its face, saying thank you: "Thank you."
Zi Lan felt the little nine-tailed fox licking his cheeks twice and was stunned for a moment.
He looked over in surprise, only to see that the little nine-tailed fox had already wiped its red eyes clean.
Xueli said, "It's almost done. I'll go see if there's any fabric I can use to make two more nests. The two little tigers are still waiting in the forest!"
…
Xue Li spent some time in the afternoon finding some unused fabrics at home and made two new nests.
The big house was already very crowded after Snow Wolf moved in, so Xue Li had to make the space as compact as possible and move some of the herbal books and other things into her own room, and only then was she able to squeeze in two more dens for the little tigers.
The two little tigers were soon brought back from the forest.
At first, the little tigers had difficulty adapting to life away from their mother and would often run to the forest to see where their mother was buried. It took them more than a month to gradually recover from the trauma of losing their mother. They became lively and cheerful again and learned to play.
From this time on, the personalities of the two little tigers gradually became apparent.
These two tiger cubs were born three years ago. If they were in the mortal world, they would have been old enough to be independent. However, because they were born in the fairyland and were influenced by the fairy spirit, they still look and behave like they are very young.
They are actually brother and sister.
The elder brother is a bit stronger than his younger sister and very lively. He is often seen running around in the yard, practicing his roar, and then falling down. Sometimes, he would inexplicably stretch out his claws to search the empty boxes in the yard, and then overturn the boxes, trapping himself inside, and unable to get out, he would roar and bump into the boxes.
The sister is smaller than her brother, but still has the power of a tiger, and is obviously smarter. She knows how to smash the box with a slap when her brother is caught, or just bite his tail to pull him out. She seems to know that her voice is still very childish, and even if she roars, it won't make any sense, so although she is fierce when she needs to be, she is shy and rarely roars, and sometimes she will take the initiative to help Xueli and other animals.
However, even though they have slightly different personalities, the two cubs are still quite young tigers after all. After they were moved into the wooden house, they could often be seen chasing each other and playing outside the house, poking each other with their paws, rolling around and biting their own tails.
The little animals in the forest just fulfilled their promise and fed the two little tigers for a while, and then they all fell in love with them.
There was just a little twist when initially deciding what the two little tigers would eat.
"By the way, what do these two tigers usually eat? They look so small, are they not yet weaned?"
The white deer looked at the two tiger cubs worriedly, with a lot on his mind.
The rabbit said, "It should be broken, right? I saw some scattered fruit cores near the tiger's cave. How about giving them some fruit to eat?"
Xueli said: "It's definitely broken. My aunt and I went to check their health. They should be fine if they are given some normal food..."
Before Xue Li finished speaking, at this moment, the little tiger brother who was walking around the house accidentally kicked over a wooden box in the house.
At this time, the two little tigers had just been brought home. The younger sister tiger was so tired from crying that she fell asleep in her new nest, while the older brother tiger was walking around everywhere.
As soon as the box was turned over, a large box of round radishes that Xue Li had treasured rolled out.
Brother Tiger was hungry after crying all day. He opened his mouth wide and swallowed the radish immediately.
White Deer: “…”
Little Rabbit: “…”
Sydney: “…”
Xueli said, "Just leave these two tigers with me. I will take good care of them."
