You Plan To Kill Me With Meng? - Chapter 57.1 - Prairie Lions Alliance (12)

The great fire in the south was like fate itself, and when combined with other factors, it directly propelled Qiao Qixi’s journey northward.

Their pace was not urgent; there was no aggressive intent to invade anyone’s territory. If one had to say, it was more like a family of six embarking on an impromptu self-guided trip.

Can also be considered a graduation trip.

These six lions exploring the world walk and stop, occasionally spotting a grassland abundant with prey, where they pause for two days before moving on. This has been quite beneficial for their team cohesion.

Among them, Qiao Qixi does not participate in hunting. Oh hē hē hē hē hē hē.

After toiling and sneaking around to finally raise the cubs, once relieved of the heavy burden of being ‘the family’s hope,’ Qiao Qixi felt light as a feather, almost wanting to run two laps around the African savannah to show his excitement.

Now, he finally understands why people in the past had so many children. Not having seven or eight, at least five or six, because when children grow up, they become ready laborers.

When the five brothers went hunting, Qiao Qixi would slowly follow behind. If he felt like it, he’d help provide cover; if not, he’d find a sturdy branch to lie on, internally pointing fingers and making comments.

Lao Da charged too quickly this time; the zebra is clearly still on alert, and this zebra isn’t an ideal hunting target. Wait, who selected this prey?

Has all your usual learning gone down the dog’s belly*?

T/N: *implies that the knowledge acquired has been consumed and is no longer accessible or useful.

Mother zebras with their young are very vigilant. Moreover, taking both mother and child together is quite a sin. Unless absolutely necessary, it’s best not to choose mother-child pairs as prey.

Now that the mother and child zebra have successfully escaped, it means their meal has been delayed by at least an hour, if not longer. However, Qiao Qixi feels no regret; in fact, she is somewhat gloating.

Ran into a soft nail*, huh, you little rascals.

T/N : *situation where someone is gently but firmly turned down.

The lions watched helplessly as their prey escaped. The brothers stared at the zebra’s retreating figure, feeling confused and defeated, and could only look for the next hunting target.

Lions also have conflicts and temper tantrums among themselves. The overly impulsive Da Yuanzi, who scared away the prey, was scolded by every passing brother, leaving the lion almost stunned.

Being thick-skinned, Da Yuanzi maintained a cheerful demeanor, wagging his tail as he followed his brothers.

Qiao Qixi: Truly my good eldest son.

The little rascals’ new hunting target is still the zebra. Their appetite is as big as they are, and recently they have rarely hunted small-sized prey. First, because they can’t get full, and second, because the lions look down on them.

Prey weighing less than 800 jin is no longer within the consideration range of the Norman brothers.

That’s just how audacious they are.

This time, Qiao Qixi no longer nodded off. He perked up and watched carefully, and discovered that it was Miantuan who was selecting the hunting target. So, the last time, it definitely wasn’t Miantuan’s masterpiece. This guy, although very strong, isn’t arrogant and doesn’t feel the need to take charge in everything.

Miantuan’s personality leans more towards hiding. How should it be put hm… maybe what he shows is just the tip of the iceberg.

Qiao Qixi feels that, even though he raised Miantuan himself, he still can’t accurately summarize what kind of lion Miantuan really is.

This hunt was very successful, and the meal will be ready in less than an hour.

The lion brothers knocked an adult male zebra to the ground. They used their barbed tongues to greedily lap up the warm blood flowing from the zebra’s body, while deep, victorious low growls emanated from their throats.

Five times the bass is sexy, and also mysterious and dangerous.

A moment later, this group of fierce lions all looked up, and they emitted a summoning roar toward another male lion perched on a tree branch.

In Qiao Qixi’s ears, it sounded like: Stop sleeping, hurry down, it’s time to eat, lazybones!

What’s going on? What’s happening? I’ve finally got the chance to be the so-called ‘King of Soft Rice,*’ so of course, I should enjoy the 16 hours of sleep benefits that a lion should have!

T/N : *a humorous and somewhat derogatory term(depending upon context) referring to someone who enjoys a life of luxury or comfort without much effort—essentially someone who lives off others, often used to describe a person in a lazy or cushy position.

However, I also am really hungry now. It seems that eating idle food is easier to digest?

Qiao Qixi slowly climbed down from the tree branch because it’s easy to climb up but hard to come down. Generally, pandas climb trees very easily, but coming down is another story—either they fall straight down, or the branch breaks and they fall down.

Qiao Qixi is doing relatively well. After he came down, he stretched lazily and shook his mane, which was thick and neat, beautifully groomed.

Unlike some of the more scruffy male lions on the grasslands, whose manes sometimes look like weeds, sometimes like a ‘shamate’ style, and some even have bald spots at a young age.

People around the world who pay attention to African lions all agree that Alexander is a very handsome lion, and currently, no other lion looks cleaner or more attractive than him.

T/N : shamate – messy/eccentric looking mane

Qiao Qixi came to the five brothers, and one by one, he touched the five lion heads, then lay down and enjoyed his meal. The zebra meat was not as tender as beef, but it was also very delicious.

This meal, which was obtained without effort, was eaten with great joy.

Additional Notes:

In Chinese culture, dogs are sometimes associated with being unworthy recipients of valuable things. Therefore, saying that learning has gone down the dog’s belly conveys the idea that the effort put into learning has been in vain.

Jin – a traditional Chinese unit of weight, roughly equivalent to 500 grams or 1.1 pounds.

The term “shamate” (杀马特) refers to a Chinese subculture characterized by distinctive hairstyles, often involving brightly colored, spiked, or gravity-defying hair, heavy makeup, and eclectic fashion choices.
