Wolf's Endowment

The dry season started, and the water volume of the rock waterfall suddenly decreased a lot. The herbivores that lived in the jungle all year round began to move around in search of water.Hot weather, lack of water, and sparse vegetation all add to the already difficult life of herbivores.Many animals died of heat or thirst during long-distance running in order to avoid the pursuit of hunters, not to mention the frequent outbreaks of various diseases in this kind of weather.

The territory of Ai Ye and I is in a better situation. The water source of the waterfall is washed down and then divided into several tributaries. Our territory is one of the flow directions, and it is the only way for this tributary.Even if it is only a small amount of water seeping from the cracks in the rocks, as the first land to pass through, the water source here will last for a while, and the amount of water is enough for the herd to drink.

Although many herbivores slept at night, there were still some herds that had roasted in the hot sun all day in search of water.The hot and dry weather can be alleviated to a certain extent at night, but the air pressure is extremely low on a windless night, making it suffocating.

At night, Ai Ye and I secretly lurk near the water source in the territory. Before the cold winter comes, we need to accumulate as much food as possible.This winter we will be feeding three almost one-year-olds, two of whom are still carnivores. They are at the age of poor hunting ability but huge appetite.Although it is not easy to support them, they are still much stronger than those female beasts who raise their children alone. At least we are two strengths.

Today we are going to hunt two adult deer. Ai Ye and I are respectively lurking behind different rocks.I stared at an old deer. He was squeezed out by the group eager to drink water. The old deer was breathing more and more heavily in the stuffy air at night. He tried to squeeze into the fountain to drink water several times, but lost Physical strength made him fail again and again.

The water source here is originally a few gushing outlets. The water source is narrow and not enough for this group of members to drink water for the family of fifty at the same time. They need to enjoy the cool spring water in batches.The old deer can only wait on the periphery, sniffing the water vapor that is close at hand.

Ai Ye and I attacked almost at the same time. I rushed straight to the target I had been choosing, and successfully bit the old deer's throat with almost no effort. I didn't bite off his neck, but just held down his trachea.The old deer couldn't breathe, coupled with severe dehydration, he just struggled slightly and couldn't move.

Ai Ye also culled the deer until it reached adulthood. He hunted much faster than me. His sharp saber teeth pierced the deer's skull, quickly killed the prey, and hid the food.The other members of the deer herd scattered and ran into the jungle.This full drink is enough for them to not have to venture to find water sources for a few days, and then eat grass leaves to replenish the water they need.

After Ai Ye hid the food, she ran to help, dragged the old deer away and hid it.I thought about it, I should prepare some fruits for Biji, called the parasol and Xiaodai, and came under the bread tree.Let them go up the tree to bite off some unripe breadfruit, bring them back to the hole and wait for them to ripen slowly. After ripening, the fruit juice is rich, and peel it to replenish water for Biji. Biji is the one who needs water most among us. And this kind of green fruit can be stored until early winter at least.

Find nearby fruit trees. Most of the fruits are ripe this season, but there are still some green fruits on the trees.Let Parasol and Xiaodai climb to the tree to bite off the fruit, and slowly roll the fruit to the cave.This little guy is the best at rolling, he can roll a few fruits at once, and he has a great time playing.When winter comes, the fruit mountain in the cave is the contribution of Xiaodai.

Because the hunting was over and I was busy carrying fruits, I didn't pay attention to whether there were herds of animals coming to drink at the water source.Ai Ye's roar attracted my attention. His big paws were pressing down on a struggling little fox.

The little fox looks small, about six months old, he should have just learned to forage by himself, otherwise he would not break into the territory of wolves and leopards, his natural enemies.Ai Ye's saber teeth were already hanging on the little fox's head, as long as it fell, he would surely die.But when Ai Ye's saber teeth were only a millimeter away from the little fox's head, for some unknown reason, they stopped suddenly.Ai Ye looked in my direction, the light flashed in his eyes, as if he was paying attention to something.

I looked there, and the little fox also turned to look at me. His eyes were very bright, and the eyeballs shone like crystals, shining brightly.The little fox's eyes rolled a few times, a little cunning, but also a little pitiful and innocent.

I was baffled by the bright eyes of Ai Ye and the little fox. The little fox turned his head and expressed something to Ai Ye in a hurry, probably begging, because Ai Ye took his paw away and let him go.

I watched Ai Ye run towards me with the little fox in his mouth, put the little fox in front of my eyes, and said it was for me to keep and play.

I can't help but wonder why I suddenly thought of giving the little fox to me to raise. The little fox has reached the age of foraging alone and will mature in three months. When winter is coming, let me raise an independent fox. young man?And judging from their actions just now, it doesn't seem like they want to recognize father and son.

I looked at the little fox, his body was thin and small, but his fur was very fluffy, as fluffy as a toy.A pair of big round eyes shone with immature and innocent light.I looked into Xiaohu's eyes, and suddenly felt dizzy, and suddenly felt a lot of love and compassion for him, wishing to give him the best things, because Xiaohu is indeed a treasure worthy of love.

I licked the little fox lovingly from the bottom of my head, but Ai Ye suddenly grabbed the little fox with her paw.Xiaohu hugged his head and rolled all over the ground in pain, how pitiful, seeing the faint tears in his eyes, I immediately yelled at Ai Ye angrily, this is the first time I lost my temper at Ai Ye, how could he beat the child at will? .

I carefully picked up the little fox and ran all the way back to the cave, trying to comfort him.The parasol growled and asked me if I was still collecting fruit. Now I was full of the look of the little fox injured just now, holding his head and rolling around. I turned back to the parasol and said that I would collect it tomorrow.But I saw Ai Ye's indifferent eyes looking at the little fox warningly, I put down the little fox gently, and howled at Ai Ye, why did he treat the new kid like this.

Put the little fox on the haystack in the cave and lick his head. It seems that the injury is not serious. Compared with Xiaodai's big bag at that time, there is no small mark on the little fox's head. I said that Ai Ye is not serious. Will bully children.I looked at Xiaohu again, his eyes were still so bright, he was so cute, it would not do for such a cute child to hit him lightly.

The little fox stuck out his tongue and licked my face, rubbed his head against my head, and circled around me coquettishly.It suddenly occurred to me that the little fox might still be hungry, so I let the little fox lie down to rest, and went to the place where the food was hidden at home, and was going to get some meat for the little fox to eat.

I tore off a piece of fresh deer leg and ran back to the cave quickly. I put the meat in front of the little fox and told him to eat it quickly.Xiaohu looked at me winkingly, thanked me, and said that I was the best father in the world.

The little fox started to eat the meat fiercely, and then stopped suddenly.I brought the meat to him and asked him to eat some. Xiaohu's tears flowed quietly down the corners of his eyes. He said that he hadn't eaten fresh meat for a long time.

I licked Xiaohu's tears with distress, and told him that I would raise him, and that I would not give up on him in winter, and that he could live at home even when he became an adult.

Xiao Huyan told me about his experience with sadness.The little fox was born in an ordinary fox family. The father and mother only live together when they are breeding young, and they usually live alone.This time, Mom and Dad raised several of their brothers and sisters.

The father fox is responsible for hunting the food, and after passing the food to the mother, the mother distributes it to the cubs.There is a clear eating order among the little foxes.The strongest can be eaten first, and the thinnest can only be hungry. The mother allows them to compete and fight. The victory or defeat of this fight determines the order of the prey that can be eaten.Xiaohu is the thinnest in the family. He has almost no food, and he is always bullied by his stronger siblings. He is always the one who gets hurt every time.

I quickly hugged the little fox and hugged it in my arms. Although I knew that all animals had this kind of eating rules when they were young, I was still sad for the little fox's tragic past.I reassured Xiaohu that there is no such eating order in our family, we all eat together, and we will not let Biji Parasol and Xiaodai bully him.They are the best brothers and they will protect Xiaohu.

Xiaohu finally burst into tears. This is the first time I have raised such a sentimental little guy, and I secretly remember to always pay attention to Xiaohu's emotions and not let him suffer any grievances.

Xiaohu finally started to eat again. I looked at him, and Xiaohu looked up at me occasionally with a smile.After Xiaohu finished eating, I approached him, cleaned up the blood stains around his mouth, and cleaned his body.The whole body of the little fox is about half a meter long, and its tail is half the length of its body. The small child will soon be clean. Although it is thin, the fur on the whole body is not dry, but bright and shiny. It really does not look like it has been starving for a long time.And just outside the cave, his coat color was dark and dark, almost melting into the night, but now it was placed on the haystack, and it became light and yellowish again.I thought that since the fox's hair can change color, its natural nutrient absorption is different from other animals. Probably all the nutrients are supplied to the fur, which is why his hair is so shiny.

I looked at the little fox again from a distance, it really got cuter and cuter, the little fox looked straight at me, and slowly smiled, a little smug.I thought to myself that this young little fox is also vain about his appearance, so I can't help being a little funny, but when he matures, he needs to rely on this beautiful fur to attract the opposite sex, so being pretty is still of great benefit.There was a rumbling sound from Ai Ye behind him. It turned out that Ai Ye came back with the children at some point.

Ai Ye's eyes looked at the little fox, cold and ruthless, just like looking at the prey when hunting.I asked Bi Ji to take the little fox to drill the cave together, and told them to take good care of my brother, and looked away after watching them enter together.

I don't understand Ai Ye, he is the one who wants to adopt Xiaohu, why he treats him like this.If he is a father without love and patience, then he is very good to Biji Parasol and Xiao Dai, I looked at Ai Ye suspiciously.

Ai Ye looked at me and asked, do you like little foxes?Of course I like it, Xiaohu is very cute, and he is so good at acting like a baby, I want to spoil him unconsciously.

Ai Ye thought for a while and said, since you like it, let's keep it.I will let each of our children grow up safe and healthy.At the same time, we must not spoil children too much, and must teach them the skills of survival before they become adults.

I nodded in agreement, thinking that Ai Ye might be blaming me for doting on the little fox too much. Other children tear up the food by themselves before eating, and let the little fox eat by themselves next time.

Ai Ye looked at me again with a smile and said, we take the children to learn survival skills, and we should also practice more survival skills ourselves.He bit the "raw" very hard, and I was watching him expressing his point of view when I was suddenly pushed down by the big claws.

I was taken aback by Ai Ye's actions, and I struggled to get up. He hugged me from behind, and his two hind legs clamped my buttocks tightly.Ai Ye lowered his head and breathed in my ear, and said, you are always in such a hurry.I was anxious and resentful, did I sneak away to drink deer blood again.

Ai Ye rubbed the back of my neck and asked me to go with him into the passage, the outer cave was uncomfortable to sleep in.I pretended I couldn't hear, and lay down with my whole body, tightly sticking to the ground, not moving.Ai Ye held the back of my neck in her mouth, and kept pulling towards the passageway. I lowered my body and exerted strength towards the entrance of the hole.We were in a stalemate, and Ai Ye suddenly changed the direction of his force, and brought me out of the cave all at once.

Ai Ye kissed the back of my head and whispered in my ear, since I don't want to go inside, then listen to your advice and practice outside.

The night air in the dry season is stuffy, the moon is huge, we are on the mountainside, the moonlight is abundant, the night vision ability of wild animals is good, and now they can see clearly.

There was a faint red light in Ai Ye's eyes, and he pushed me onto a pile of hay, which was left over from the cave prepared earlier.As soon as I lay down, I sank. The place where the grass was piled was originally a sloping pit with a layer of grass on the surface, which was not easy to find. Now my weight is under the weight of the dry grass and I can’t bear it. My entire upper body has fallen into it. After entering this shallow pit, except for the buttocks that were still tightly clamped by Ai Ye, the whole body was in a tilted state.In order not to fall again, I braced my forelegs hard, and as soon as my hips were raised, Ai Ye entered from behind.Ai Ye attached to the back of my neck, kept adding to my fur, and said, "give birth" to Fox Xiaosi today.
