Chapter 13 Consolation
It took a while to get out of the territory. Jin Mang looked all the way and found that the territory was getting more and more depressed. Except for some trees with well-developed roots or old age, the other flowers and plants and even the shrubs that were originally considered vigorous also disappeared.

After a little thought, Jin Mang knew what was going on. The bushes must have been frozen to death.

Although there was no thermometer, she estimated that the coldest time before was minus [-] degrees.According to Qingsui, this kind of climate is already considered better than previous split seasons.

According to her, when she went out at the coldest time, her eyes were frozen.

Jin Mang couldn't even imagine that feeling, and he was very glad that his luck was not so bad.

They were walking to the west of the territory. Jin Mang had a little impression of this neighbor. The male tiger that attacked her was the lord of this territory. Later, a leopard took over the place.Because the leopard has a relatively small appetite, it only occupies a part of it, and the rest is scraped away by a brown bear and a female tiger.

Among the top predators, leopards have relatively low combat effectiveness, but they have stronger survivability and are more agile than ligers.

In the past, their relationship with this leopard neighbor could not be said to be good. It can only be said that well water does not violate river water. only eye.That leopard is probably a cautious character, and has never shown covetousness towards Jin Mang.

But that was in the past, and the situation is different now, and no one knows what the other party's attitude is now.

However, Jin Mang soon discovered that all her worries were unfounded, because compared to the unpredictable attitude of the leopard, the attitudes of Qingfeng and Qingsui had clearly changed.

That's why the leopard was so fast that it didn't become a barbecue in the belly of their family.

Jin Mang realized later that his parents were expanding their territory.

Seeing the surprise on Jinmang's face, Qingsui explained softly: "There are fewer prey, and we need to expand our territory, otherwise we won't be able to store food. Without food storage, the next migration will be difficult."

Jin Mang was stunned, "Migration?" Isn't that something only migratory birds do?
Qingsui hesitated for a moment, and then said: "After the rain and flood, the weather will get hotter and hotter, and most of the vegetation in Mangchuan Ridge will die. The prey will starve to death without fodder, and we will not be able to survive because of lack of food. Stay in Mangchuanling can only be a dead end. Therefore, we have to migrate to the holy land of Anze, which is the only place not affected by the split season."

"At that time, all surviving creatures will migrate to Anze. But Anze is so big that it is impossible to accommodate all creatures."

Her face darkened slightly, "When the time comes, it will be difficult."

Jin Mang couldn't recover for a long time.

Qingfeng quickly caught a rabbit that had just emerged from the hole, and turned around to add: "Now we need to continue to expand the territory until it borders on the territories of other members of the tribe. Only in this way can we hold a group together and prepare for the tribal union when we migrate in the future .”

Jin Mang hugged Qingsui's neck subconsciously, and asked softly, "Will we stay with the tribe when we migrate?"

Qingsui nodded, "When the time comes, your grandma and uncles and aunts will all be with us. If there is no tribe, it will be difficult to survive the migration."

Jin Mang can understand what's going on after a little thought, but...

Wouldn't that kill a lot of people and a lot of animals?
She couldn't ask this question because she already had the answer in her heart.

When the heavy rain came one after another, Jin Mang followed Qing Feng and Qing Sui, defeated one after another fierce beasts, and expanded his family's territory by more than ten times.

This kind of achievement is not without price, Qingfeng lost a section of his left little finger, and there was a hideous scar on his temple. During this period, the wound on his abdomen was infected once. He survived hard.

——God knows that she had prepared well during the period, if Qing Feng's wound festered, she would risk being suspected to debride his wound.

Although Qingsui was not the main combat force, she had to bear a lot of pressure. Her eyes were scratched by a wolf during a battle. At that time, her eyeballs were injured and infected, and she couldn't see clearly for a while.Jin Mang was about to die of anxiety at that time, for fear that her eye would go blind. In the end, unexpectedly, although Qingsui's eyes were left with obvious scars, her vision did not leave sequelae.

Even Jin Mang, she was spotted and bitten by a wolf during a battle, if she hadn't jumped into the rushing river immediately, she might have died on the spot.Even so, she almost died in the mouth of the crocodile.

Thanks to her diving for a while in her previous life, her reflexes were good, but her mind was empty at that time, but she instinctively climbed onto the crocodile's back, and was able to wait until Qingfeng Qingsui and the others arrived.

At this moment, the family of three felt very tired, but looking at the various cured meats hanging at the entrance of the cave, they couldn't help showing satisfied expressions.

Jin Mang gnawed on the scorched grilled fish, and drank a sip of sweet spring water from time to time, not to mention how comfortable it was.

However, this leisure is only temporary.

When she realized that the ground had turned into a vast ocean, Jin Mang had just finished her afternoon nap. She looked at the howling wind outside, the broken branches and fallen leaves, and even small animals flying past her eyes...

"You can't go out yet." Seeing her looking outside eagerly, Qingsui thought she wanted to go out, and said, "We have to wait for the wind to stop."

After a pause, she said again: "When the wind stops, I'll take you outside to fish and catch prey."

Jin Mang knew that his family was going to pick up corpses as before.

She wanted to pay attention to it, and told her parents that animal carcasses are not suitable for consumption, but...the reality is so fucking, she can't say that at all.

It also depends on the time.

About a day later, the wind stopped, and Jin Mang's family began to go out to salvage prey.

——This is not an easy task, especially when she finds that birds of prey begin to appear nearby.Those raptors waited for them to salvage their prey, and then took advantage of their instability on the floating objects, and then swooped down from a high altitude to snatch the prey, picking up ready-made bargains.

Watching a gazelle that he finally found was snatched by a golden eagle, Jin Mang was so angry that he grabbed a fist-sized stone and threw it over.

However, the golden eagle flies so high, how can she throw it.

I don't know if it was her illusion, but the golden eagle seemed to look at her contemptuously?
Jinmang was so angry that he jumped up and down, but Qingfeng and Qingsui were more indifferent about it.

"Wait until the migration, I'll catch golden eagles for you to eat." Qing Feng comforted her.

Although Jin Mang never thought about eating a golden eagle, he was really comforted.
