You Plan To Kill Me With Meng? - Chapter 49.1

Throughout the year, in the southern hemisphere’s tropical grasslands with high temperatures, during the rainy season, the daily average temperature is between 24°C and 30°C. It is not considered very hot; relatively speaking, it is a comfortable temperature.

Therefore, people from cities with high temperatures flying to America to escape the summer heat is in fact not a joke.

These days, Qiao Qixi is walking with the inexperienced little cubs on the road, and their feelings are getting better and better.

When Qiao Qixi lies in wait for hunting, the sensible little lions will consciously find a place to take up cover; not moving around randomly, not making a sound and being very conscious of not being a burden.

After waiting for Qiao Qixi to hunt successfully, the little lions run lightly out from their hiding place, striding with a cheerful pace and arriving at the prey’s side, swallowing saliva.

The starving little lions licked the warm blood flowing out from the prey’s wound. With their sharp claws, they skillfully hooked onto the skin and flesh, eating one by one, to the extent of each having a face covered in blood.

Resembling a big cat with a flower on its face.

Especially the snow-white fur of Miantuan which is the easiest to dye red by the prey’s blood and especially troublesome to clean up.

According to Qiao Qixi’s observation, Miantuan pays great attention to cleanliness.

With a delicate personality, he isn’t a sloppy male lion. Every time, the brothers playfully pounce on each other after finishing eating and cleaning their fur early. The solitary Miantuan always crouches on the side quietly, washing his face and licking his paws.

It’s also not that the other little lions exclude the white lion. Actually, the brothers do not have any ill will towards their younger brother. Perhaps not playing together is related to Miantuan’s own personality.

Perhaps in the future there will be some improvement.

Without a male lion occupying the territory, although they do not have to worry about killing from the same species, however, the subsequent risk faced with is other carnivorous animals.

Before long, vultures circled the air nearby.

The lions hear these vultures; they scavenge and follow above the Felidae on the grassland, eat decaying flesh, emitting unpleasant and eerie sounds from their mouths.

This will attract more of the grassland’s food bandits.

Like hyenas and wild dogs, the troublesome targets.

Qiao Qixi finished eating the last big mouthful of meat that he could, although, it really is regrettable that this couldn’t be finished.

He licks his lips, looks toward the thick and strangely shaped tree trunk where those eerie vultures are perched, rolls his eyes fiercely, and then, without any reluctance, drops the remains of the food.

With the little cubs in tow, he swiftly leaves.

Seeing that the male lion had already set off on the journey, the little lions immediately put away their playful nature and obediently followed.

Even that little lion cub, the Third, with a slow to warm up personality, also knew that he cannot fall behind, otherwise, he will be in danger.

Walking along the way, a burst of winds came from the Southwest direction, bringing over the smell of hyenas. At the same time, Qiao Qixi and the little lions all heard the sound of the hyenas.

“……..”

Well-known for the title of ‘anal-probing maniacs’ on the grassland, hyenas are a nightmare for many animals. Their roars are also very sharp and thin, sounding eerie. The little lions, not unfamiliar with them, raised their ears one by one, heeding closely the male lion’s footsteps.

Hyenas and lions have a deep-seated enmity. If a litter of lion cubs fell into the mouths of a hyena pack, they will definitely be torn to pieces.

The reason why they have the title ‘anal-probing maniac’ is because hyenas like to probe the anus of animals during fights. Therefore, they also pay great attention to protecting their own anus during fights. One can only say that a hyena pack is a formidable presence on the grassland, causing considerable concern for others.

With Qiao Qixi’s current strength as a three-legged cat, it seems like there is no other choice but to take a detour.

T/N: Three-legged cat – Chinese metaphor meaning ‘lacking in skill or strength’

These few scared cubs, with their ears and tails raised one by one, compete to walk under the belly of the male lion. Obviously, they regard the area under the male lion’s belly a safe place.

Sinful hyena pack, look how scared the little ones are.

Grumbling in his heart, Qiao Qixi felt sorry for the little lions. Then, he promptly took them far away from the area the hyena pack frequented.

Finally, ten kilometers beyond, the family of six found a suitable place to rest, intending to spend the night here.

Having eaten that full meal, they can persist for one two days without eating anything.

On the grassland, a family that can eat two meals a day would be surprising – what kind of family is this, so luxurious.

That is indeed extravagant. But Qiao Qixi is unable to control his old father’s affectionate heart. Who knows how long the little lions were hungry for before he encountered them.

First one to two days, of course they need to eat better to restore their vitality.

The resting place is on top of a pile of stones. Dry stones are lions’ favorite place to rest, a sacred ground for them.

The little lions also climbed up, seemingly very content with this new environment.

Qiao Qixi just panted several mouthfuls of air and caught the white lion that hadn’t yet finished cleaning and licked it placing him in between his paws. Miantuan, already not having any defense against the male lion, instead stayed peacefully under his mouth.

Turning over its belly, allowing itself to be licked.
