Jungle Throne

Another two days passed in a blink of an eye. Due to the lack of dense bushes in the forest, there were only bare trees left, so the field of vision became wider.Although it is still not as open as the grassland, it is enough in the forest.In particular, the lion's golden coat color is incompatible with the surroundings, even if it is far away, it can be seen.When the time comes, chase after it, and then follow the traces left on the snow to find it, and you will be able to catch up with the target in the end.

Both parties knew about it, so they kept an eye on the surroundings.And Meng Yi Meng Er Meng San not only had to pay attention to their surroundings, but also had to cover up the real traces they left in the snow.If it was snowing, it would not be so hard, but these days are sunny, and the footprints left on the snow are clearly visible at a glance.But the advantage is that they can also see the traces left by the opponent, and then avoid them in advance; or, find the prey through the traces left by the beast.

For example, this series of hoof prints.Although it is messy, it can still be seen that they are going in one direction.

"Meng Yi, come and see, are these the footprints of a long-toothed beast?" Meng Er called Meng Yi over, and carefully looked at these hoof prints himself. "Visually, there should be a long-toothed beast heading in that direction."

"Let's go and have a look. Be careful in front and behind. Since we can find out, they can also find out."

Meng Er Meng San nodded in response.The three lions followed the hoofprints to find the past.Sure enough, at the end of the hoofprints, I saw a long-toothed beast lowering its head and gnawing on a deer carcass.Probably because the blood was frozen, the smell didn't travel very far.It was only when they came nearby that they could vaguely smell the bloody smell.

"This place looks a little strange." Meng Yi said in a low voice.She frowned, looked at the environment here, and determined that she had never been here before.But since they have all come here, and there are traces of wild beasts, it shows that this place is not dangerous.

The three sisters were still careful not to disturb the long-toothed beast that was eating, separated one, and at the same time carefully inspected the surroundings in an arc in two directions to see if they saw the paw prints of other lions.

After the inspection, they found Meng Lie's traces in a very far place nearby, and there was still a long distance from here.So it's possible they just passed there and didn't come this way.

Meng Yi heaved a sigh of relief, gestured to the other two with his eyes, and outflanked the long-toothed beast from three different directions.

……

After the rest of the orcs left, only Gao Zhige, Meng Bei and Meng Shuang were left in the cave.Before entering the cave, Gao Zhige took a closer look at the cave. From the outside, the entrance of the cave was very small, only about two meters wide, and the height required lions to lie down and lower their heads to get in.In addition, the area around the entrance of the cave is covered by snow, and the surrounding area is covered with whiteness. It is difficult to find it unless you look closely from the outside.

The inside of the cave leads to the ground, not shallow or deep, except for the exit above, there is no other way here, and the inside is closed; the overall space is quite large, and it is sheltered from the wind, so the cave is still warm.But it was still daytime, and the temperature was relatively high. If the temperature dropped at night, it would be impossible without a fire, so dead branches and firewood had to be collected.

Before the start of the competition, Gao Zhige was thinking, why would someone still continue to challenge Mengbei without fear, even if he knew that he couldn't beat him and would still have his bones broken?Could it be that it was just for her to suffer physical injuries and physical pain?But for an orc, this injury would be healed after a few days of pain, and in the end it had no effect at all.Could it be that the opponent made a mistake in judgment and did not expect Mengbei to be so resistant?This is also very possible.

Gao Zhige always believed in her intuition, which told her that the possibility of the latter was very small.If a lion and a priest were really involved, then things would never be so simple.

"Are you still thinking about that question just now?" Seeing that Gao Zhige was still thinking silently, Meng Bei frowned, walked up to her, and asked.

"No, I was wondering what the connection between your being beaten up like this and this lion fight."

Being beaten like this... After hearing this, Meng Bei's expression became subtle. Why did these words make her feel so uncomfortable?It was as if she was the one who was beaten all over the place.But in fact, she is the one who beats the opponent to the ground, okay?

However, her focus only stayed for a moment, and soon shifted to what the other party wanted to express.

"You want to say..."

"I always feel that they want to kill you in this competition." Gao Zhige looked directly into the opponent's eyes and said without hesitation.However, unexpectedly, she didn't see surprise or other expressions in the other party's eyes, as if she knew it long ago.

"Well, I know. They always wanted to kill me." Mengbei said calmly. "If I die, the lions will be taken over by Mengshi. Mengshi...has never hidden his ambition from me. He wants to have his own lions. If it wasn't for me, this lions should be his. Yes. We have a bad relationship because I robbed the lions that belonged to him."

"I belonged to another lion group before I became an adult, and I came here after I became an adult. And Mengshi grew up in this lion group."

"You are not afraid of him..."

"He won't." Mengbei said with certainty, "He is very smart, and he knows that I can do better than him. As long as I don't make a fatal mistake, he won't do it."

After listening to Mengbei's confident explanation, Gao Zhige nodded and stopped asking.

In any case, to be the boss of the lion group, Mengbei has considered more aspects than her, and the other party she can think of should also be able to think of it.Moreover, from a normal point of view, although the relationship between Mengbei and Mengshi is not good, they have the same idea in terms of the interests of the lion group.Besides, Meng Shi doesn't look like that kind of stupid person, he sees very far, and he will not be impulsive at all for the little profit in front of him.

As Mengbei said, Mengshi is a smart person.

Now that the option of an internal traitor cooperating with others to kill Mengbei has been ruled out, Gao Zhige can only continue to think about other possible reasons.But in the next second, she thought of another question about Meng Bei: "Meng Bei, have you ever thought about killing Meng Lie?"

Mengbei's breath was stagnant, and a strong killing intent flashed across his eyes.She stared at Gao Zhige's face for a long time, so long that Gao Zhige wondered if she was looking at another person through herself, only then did she hear her forcefully utter a word through her teeth: "Think!"

Gao Zhige was taken aback for a moment, this was the first time she saw Mengbei showing such emotions in front of her.

The author has something to say: About the lion tribe:

1. Some settings refer to the nomads of the ancient grasslands. There is only one Khan, so there is only one lion; the others are just the boss of the lion group.Lion tribes are united by multiple prides that are interconnected but independent of each other.

2. Some settings refer to African lions, such as hunting habits.

3. The rest are (willful) private settings that serve the plot.

4. The most important point is that although the relationship in the lion tribe is intricate, it is not a chaotic relationship! ! !Lions ≠ Harem! ! !My Mengbei is still very pure
