Lions Major League

A short cry of "meow" sounded in the jungle, followed by a few birdsong, and a cheetah emerged from the jungle. It was a female cheetah with a cub.

Maybe it was more than one cub at first, but now there is only one left.

The hungry cheetah tried to find food, but finally caught a fish in the mud of the big wetland. It held the hard-won fish in its mouth, and was going to find a safe place to eat, otherwise the vultures hovering in the sky were watching It will rush down and take the fruits of its labor.

The little cheetah's fur is messy, and it can be seen that it has suffered a lot.

And just when the cheetah was about to put down its prey, the little cheetah lifted its tail weakly and tried to move forward, but at this moment, the cheetah stopped suddenly, its whole body tensed up suddenly, its upper body pressed down, and it even took a breath. All a little nervous.

After the little cheetah was affected, he also became nervous.

The nearby bushes made a slight noise, as if something was walking through the grass. The other party paused for a moment, but did not come over, but continued to walk forward.

Even if the sound disappeared, the cheetah didn't dare to move, in case there was an ambush by the opponent. It took a long time before it dared to take the courage to move forward cautiously, and if there was any movement, it would immediately run for its life.

It wasn't until it protruded its head from the bushes that it realized that there were no other animals here, but the huge paw prints on the ground were very conspicuous, extending all the way to the depths of the wetland.

This is the paw print of a lion.

And at this distance from here, five male lions are also preparing to continue walking this way. A golden-maned male lion sniffed the smell in the air, and said in a slightly low voice: "I smell the smell of rotting corpses." Taste, but very bland."

Both Moore and Qiao Yi sniffed, then shook their heads together and said, "No, I don't smell anything."

Ah Xing's sense of smell is actually very sensitive, it should be second only to Aide.

The depths of the wetland were different from the places he had passed through before. Not long after he entered, Qiao Yi saw a rotting wild deer with only bones left, emitting a stench.

Thain leaned over curiously, then quickly turned his head away.

"Lions eat carrion, do you want to try it?" Qiao Yi looked at Thain. He knew that lions actually eat carrion, but it was difficult for him to swallow, but he didn't know how a pure lion would treat carrion.

"Don't try." Thain shook his head immediately, tilting his furry head slightly, with a trace of hesitation in his eyes, and then asked: "Could it be...you..."

"No, I don't like it, and I don't want to try it." Qiao Yi said immediately.

He was afraid that he would speak slowly, and the golden-maned lion beside him had already pricked up his ears to listen to the movement. Qiao Yi didn't want this lion to push him with carrion in its mouth every day in the future.

"It's more than that." Moore walked forward a little bit, then turned his head and walked back, it said: "There is a wild deer corpse in front, but it is fresh, only half of it is left, it looks like it was eaten half."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yi said, "I'll go and have a look."

"Okay." Moore responded, and led Qiao Yi towards the direction of the wild deer. At first, Qiao Yi thought it was eaten by some beast, but when he saw the wild deer, he realized this. It's not that simple.

The cut surface of this wild deer's wound is very smooth, and it is absolutely impossible for any beast to cause it. There is only one thing that can cause such a wound, and that is a knife.

Qiao Yi immediately thought of the foreign poacher who jumped into the river to escape, and murmured in a low voice, "Could it be that he ran here and still has a knife."

The vigilance in his heart suddenly raised, no lion knows better than him how cunning human beings are, and how cruel poachers are when hunting wild animals.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Qiao Yi staring at the wild deer, Ah Xing also guessed that something must be wrong, and it immediately asked, "Did you find something? The one-eyed deer is still the little scar."

"Neither." Qiao Yi paused, and he said, "Do you still remember that human being who ran away?"

Qiao Yi turned to look at A Xing. A Xing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Remember, you suspect that he killed this wild deer? But where he jumped, there are many crocodiles."

"But I didn't see him being bitten to death by a crocodile." Qiao Yi paused, and said, "I don't know if he killed this wild deer, but this wound must have been caused by humans."

"Why?" Ah Xing walked around the wild deer a few times, subconsciously sniffing the wild deer, trying to find traces.

It stands to reason that this wild deer has just died not long ago, so it should still have some strange smell, but what makes Ah Xing feel strange is that there is almost nothing here. They got it here, and after sniffing it next to the wild deer, they were sure that there were really no other strange smells nearby.

Just when Moore and the others didn't understand, Ah Xing suddenly moved closer to the wound. Its claws opened the wound and almost moved its face to it. After sniffing carefully, it finally noticed a strange smell.

It turned its head to look at Qiao Yi, and then said: "It has a smell, but...it's very strange, an indescribable smell."

Qiao Yi's sense of smell was not as good as Ah Xing's, so he had to give up, but he was sure that the wound was definitely caused by a human. According to the time of death of this wild deer, the human should be not far from here.

Qiao Yi knew that some hunters were left behind and needed to survive in the grassland for a period of time. While waiting for their companions, they would use traps to hunt some animals to satisfy their hunger.

"Be careful later, everyone." Qiao Yi turned his head to look at Sesen and them, and said, "There should be a trap here. I don't know what else he has in his hand, but there must be a knife. As for whether there is a gun, that's up to you." Not necessarily, so be careful."

Aide was injured by a gunshot wound, and they all saw it. After hearing Qiao Yi's words, they nodded and became more cautious.

No one wants to be the second Aide.

Ah Xing leaned over and bit the wild deer with one bite. Its sharp fangs pierced the flesh of the wild deer, but instead of tearing the meat, it let go of its fangs and looked at what it left behind. After comparing the wound with the previous wound on the wild deer, Ah Xing said, "I can't make such a wound."

"Of course you can't make it out. This is an incision that only a knife can make." This wild deer lacked some meat, and it was obviously cut off directly by someone.

Maybe wild meat has parasites and is unsafe, but if you don’t eat it, you will starve to death. Most people will still choose to give it a go, let alone desperado poachers.

When Qiao Yi continued to walk forward, he found a piece of low bushes lying on the ground, and only after walking over did he find the wheel marks left on the ground.

"Wheel?" Qiao Yi froze for a moment.

"Huh?" Ah Xing tilted his head, leaned over and said, "What? What kind of car? I have already damaged that car."

"I know." Qiao Yi replied. He stared at the traces left on the ground, leaned over and sniffed them, and then followed the tracks of the wheels with his eyes. The soil in this big wetland is relatively moist. Seeing the complete wheel prints, Qiao Yi could tell at a glance that this was definitely not the car of the previous poachers. The tires used for this wheel were specially made, and most of these tires would be used on jeeps.

Qiao Yi remembered the person who called Cao Laoliu before.

"Qiao Yi." Ah Xing saw Qiao Yi staring at the trace, his expression getting more and more serious, so he walked over and said, "If you have any difficulties, you can tell me."

"The difficulty is...maybe what we have to face is not just a poacher, but the other party has a car, and it's not a small broken car." Qiao Yi smiled wryly: "This means that their weapons should not It's going to be just shotguns and earthen guns."

At that moment, Qiao Yi had some thoughts about retreating. He didn't want to confront a group of poachers who didn't know their strength at this time. There will be, so even if they have five male lions, the chances of winning are very slim.

"Ah Xing, if we don't go deep into the wetland, we are here, can we survive the dry season safely?" Qiao Yi asked suddenly.

"Aren't you looking for Xiao Scar?" Ah Xing asked.

"As I said before, if you have spare energy, look for it, and if you don't have spare energy, you won't look for it." In fact, if it wasn't because of joining the lion pride, if Qiao Yi was still a stray male lion, with his character, even if the big wetland and poaching No matter how dangerous it is, he will rush in, but now it is different, he can't drag the whole lion group into a dangerous situation.

The character of the lion is that it attaches great importance to the group, and they are unwilling to give up any companion.

"I don't know." After being silent for a while, Ah Xing gave his own answer. It said: "I have never experienced a dry season like this year, maybe Moore has never experienced it. I don't know how long this drought will last. , what will become of it in the end.”

The answer was within Qiao Yi's expectations, but he still sighed.

"Jojo." Moore looked at the wheel marks on the ground and said, "Shall we walk along this thing?"

Moore shook the lion's mane lightly, looked at Qiao Yi, and waited for Qiao Yi's answer.

"No." Qiao Yi didn't intend to follow the wheel. He wanted to choose a safer way to walk around the territory from the side to prevent being discovered by poachers.

Some poachers even bring dogs with them. Dogs have a very sensitive sense of smell. Even if they hide from human eyes, they cannot hide from the dog's sense of smell.

"From the side, through the bushes." Qiao Yi looked at the place where the wheel marks were, and said, "But walk in the direction of the wheel marks, and don't be spotted by humans."

"Human..." Thain leaned over, thought for a while and said, "Why do some humans want to kill Aed, while others save Aed?"
