You Plan To Kill Me With Meng? - Chapter 47.1

On the grassland fraught with hidden dangers, it is relatively safe on rainy days. This is roughly recognized as common sense by the majority of animals.

Because on such rainy days, there’s no need to worry about the invasion of external enemies; even herbivorous animals can sleep peacefully.

Of course, it’s not to say that carnivorous animals are not affected. Sub-adult lions like Qiao Qixi and little young lions, will also worry about encountering being killed.

The sound of rain outside the shelter gave the little lions a sense of security and they slept soundly.

Days of wandering around the grassland ate away at their spirit and bodies. But in the den of this strange lion, all troubles have been soothed; even though they had no idea if they would be facing the fangs of this very strange lion when they open their eyes again.

In short, these five brothers, weak and helpless, had no other choice.

At dawn, the rain stopped. Qiao Qixi let a sigh of relief. If the rain continued pouring, the trench in front of the cave would soon overflow.

Anyway, incessant rain was not a good sign.

That night, Qiao Qixi only slept for around five or six hours in order to protect his new family. It was not a miserable amount, but he usually slept for ten hours.

The little lions never woke up during this time, which was a good thing, because deep sleep would help them re-strengthen their weakened bodies.

Self-healing ability of animals is strong, far more astonishing than what humans understand. Just like their tenacious vitality, it often makes miracles.

The white lion in Qiao Qixi’s arms was breathing evenly, his fur already thoroughly dry; the thin and weak body just emitting a warm temperature.

Even in his mother’s arms, he may not have slept so peacefully.

After about half an hour passed, the sun completely rose. The little young lions curled up in the corner woke up gradually. They stretched lazily, licking their brothers’ sleepy eyes and drowsy faces.

Suddenly, they seem to have remembered a potential danger, the male lion staying beside them.

Qiao Qixi lifted his eyes, meeting four pairs of amber eyes, filled with fear of himself. In addition to fear, they also carried a trace of curiosity that was hard to conceal.

This is precisely a little lion that was only a few months old and did not develop a strong sense of defense yet.

Can be adopted by lions other than its biological mother.

But they will not think there would be a male lion wanting to adopt them like a dog trying to catch mice.

T/N: dog trying to catch mice – idiom meaning someone with ulterior motives.

After observing for a moment that there was no looming danger, the little young lions’ courage gradually grew bigger and they started to walk towards the antelope head leftover from last night, and tentatively stretched out their necks to tear and bite the food a bit.

Seeing that Qiao Qixi did not get angry, as if obtaining a safe signal, they ate feeling relieved.

Obviously, the food they ate last night had already been completely digested.

Sure enough, this little rascal is eating this Laozi out of his house and home. Lions of this age have quite a big appetite.

Although the antelope was quite big, feeding so many mouths will also exhaust the food quickly. Before they finished eating, Qiao Qixi pretended he did not care and casually moved his paw, startling and waking up the white young lion.

Otherwise, this one won’t get to eat.

At the moment when both sides met gazes, Qiao Qixi finally saw the white lion’s eyes clearly, a rare deep blue color, very beautiful.

Although the white lion was weak, it was still on guard after being woken up, struggling and crawling out from the arms of this male lion.

Seemingly frightened.

He quickly hid to the side of his brothers, but did not immediately join the ranks of those eating. Instead, he cautiously and curiously observed Qiao Qixi.

The unfamiliar male lion who embraced him for a night when he slept.

Perhaps this made him puzzled.

Receiving Qiao Qixi’s gaze after relaxing for a while, only then did he hide his thin and weak body behind the antelope, outside the range of the other party’s gaze.

Last night, for the sake of taking care of the little lions, Qiao Qixi did not eat much, but he also didn’t intend to eat the head of this antelope.

Leave the ready-made food for the little lions. In a while, he will go out to hunt.

Now there was a problem.

Generally, a lion pride has a division of labor and cooperation of tasks. A part of lionesses is responsible for hunting, another group guards the cubs and territory, and there is also the lion king responsible for defending against external enemies.

Qiao Qixi’s lion group with a somewhat rudimentary and shabby, has only one main force, a three-year-old male lion, and it’s simply not enough.

So, hunting is done by him, protecting the cubs is also done by him, and defending against external enemies is still him.

This is difficult, but since they had already been brought back, there was no room for retreat.
