You Plan To Kill Me With Meng? - Chapter 55.3 - Prairie Lions Alliance (10)
Zidian, hunting alone for the first time, was a bit careless. During the process, he accidentally got kicked in the abdomen by the black-spotted antelope. The situation wasn’t serious, but it made him cry out in pain.
Qiao Qixi arrived by his side, confirmed that the little lion was not seriously injured, and then sighed in relief.
The competitive child, however, still gazed longingly at the fleeing black-spotted antelope, attempting to chase it again.
Better not ba, the lions would never be able to catch up with the fleeing black-backed antelope in this kind of terrain.
An ambush is the wisest choice.
Zidian was pinned to the ground, and immediately stared at Qiao Qixi in confusion. However, struggling was useless, as Qiao Qixi took the opportunity to check the injury on his abdomen.
After being pinched by Qiao Qixi with his mouth, Zidian might have been in pain and, in a panic, bit Qiao Qixi, but he only managed to bite a mouthful of mane.
“Wuwu….”He seems a bit angry.
Ah, what a worrying child. If he had encountered a stronger waterbuck, his life would be lost by now.
Qiao Qixi licked Zidian, who had narrowly escaped with half his life, with a soothing gesture.
Before long, Miantuan came over carrying a young black-spotted impala in his mouth. His nose was panting heavily, as if he had just finished an intense hunting session.
Suddenly, his paw stopped in mid-air, and his blue eyes calmly watched the male lion and his brothers rolling and playing on the grass.
Sensing the smell of blood approaching, Qiao Qixi finally let go of Zidian. When he saw Miantuan carrying a young black-spotted impala in his mouth, he was immediately very surprised—no, he was absolutely stunned!
Miantuan actually successfully hunted the prey by himself.
Although it was a young black-spotted impala, weighing only around a dozen pounds, this is still quite impressive.
Qiao Qixi immediately walked toward Miantuan. This white lion, whose first instinct after catching prey is to come find him, is undoubtedly his biggest surprise of the night.
As the male lion approached, Miantuan lowered his head, put down the prey, and licked the fresh blood on the side of his mouth.
Does this mean he intends to share the food?
It’s good that Miantuan has this awareness, but how to put it, Qiao Qixi doesn’t want to teach them to share their food.
To survive on this grassland, the first thing, of course, is to take care of oneself, whether it is Miantuan or the other cubs.
However, because he wouldn’t eat, Miantuan showed a puzzled and confused look, which made Qiao Qixi feel a pang of heartache. After all, it was his first prey caught alone, brought specifically as a gift for him. It would really be hard to refuse it.
Alright, alright, Qiao Qixi tore open the prey, ate half himself, and let Miantuan eat the other half.
It seemed like this was a decision that made Miantuan very happy, because he let out a rumbling sound and lay down to eat the half of the food that Qiao Qixi had given him.
The night was still long, and Qiao Qixi continued teaching the lions to hunt the prey hidden in the grass.
It lasted until late into the night. Seeing that the little lions were finally nearly exhausted, Qiao Qixi properly hunted two blackbuck antelopes for dinner.
Because of Miantuan’s performance tonight, the head of the family rewarded him with one piece of liver.
The other piece was given to the third eldest, Zidian, who had an injury on his abdomen, and he ate it.
Miantuan seemed to stare several times reluctantly, though of course, this is just Qiao Qixi’s personal interpretation.
Know he loves eating liver, but each prey only has one portion, and it’s impossible to give it to him every time.
That would seem too biased.
Although in reality, Qiao Qixi is indeed biased, the white lion has received too much favoritism from him.
Therefore, the other party also sticks to him.
Under the circumstances where the brothers no longer like to act spoiled, after eating and drinking their fill and returning to the den to rest, Miantuan still stays very close to him.
Or simply lie beneath his fangs, where with just a tilt of the head, he can lick his own carefree sleeping posture.
Emotions are always a two-way journey. In the face of Miantuan’s dependence, Qiao Qixi naturally won’t remain indifferent.
At dawn, this group of lions slept very comfortably, with several snoring sounds rising and falling.
Among them, Qiao Qixi doesn’t snore, and he even finds the cubs’ snoring habit a bit annoying. However, he has heard that the snoring of felines can reduce the risk of heart disease.
Forget it, forget it, for the sake of a healthy heart, I can reluctantly choose to endure it.
As for Miantuan, he snores too, but not every day.
Maybe they were too tired today and started snoring. Qiao Qixi can tolerate the little lions snoring nearby, but he cannot tolerate them making noise right next to his ear.
If you’re going to snore, at least wait until he’s asleep before you do.
Qiao Qixi pretended to wake up Miantuan casually. Miantuan opened his eyes in confusion and stared at him for a few seconds. Perhaps realizing that nothing was wrong, he quickly drooped his eyelids and fell back asleep.
This time, he didn’t snore again.
Qiao Qixi secretly laughed to himself. He couldn’t be blamed for this; after all, who told Miantuan to lie right next to his mouth?
The entire arm was numbed by the other’s head pressing on it, but as the saying goes, this is a gift, can’t not appreciate it!
A beautiful big cat resting on my arm, should be happy about it.
By daybreak, Qiao Qixi checked the third cub’s abdomen. Fortunately, there were no marks left, and it should just be a minor issue.
Regarding the lion always pinning him down and flipping his belly over, Zidian has obviously gotten used to it; if he can’t resist, he just plays dead.
This little male lion indeed has a competitive personality. Not long after, the same incident almost happened again.
T/N: impala, waterbuck and blackbucks are all types of antelopes.
