Chapter 8: Lost

At night, they slept in the former home of the Meerkats. The meerkats www.biquge.info meerkats have their own territory, but they live for food. Wherever there is abundant food in the territory, move to it, a bit like the nomadic way of life. Over the years, however, the meerkats' ancestors had figured out where and when they had the most food, but the secret was only known to the Queen. Each migration was led by the Queen. Rainbow Meerkats are anxious to find their lost people, and she fears that her people will act rashly and break into other people's territory, and in this season of food scarcity, even the same people may kill each other, not to mention the fat that is automatically delivered to the door.

Trespass into someone else's territory, and there is nothing to say when you die.

"I'm going to keep looking for my people, where are you going?" Rainbow Meerkats asked.

An Su moved her crossed legs, the hole where the meerkat clan lived was too small for her, and she sat up with her head on the top of the cave, and she had to bend down slightly to not be so uncomfortable. It's okay to lie flat, but it's not okay to stand, and it's uncomfortable to sit.

"What's at the end of the prairie?" Ansu did not answer the rhetorical question.

"There is no end to the grassland." Rainbow Meerkats said that when she was a curious girl, she used to venture boldly on the grassland, but did not see the edge of the grassland.

Ansu shook his head, and the mud on the roof of the cave was rubbed off a few pieces, and there were a few soft clicks. After a moment of silence, Rainbow Meerkats heard her say softly, "There will always be an end." There was an almost imperceptible sadness in his voice.

"But I've heard some birds say that there's a death desert to the west and an ice field mountain to the east, and that's probably the border of the grassland, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes."

"Icefield Alpine ......," Ansu muttered.

"Are you going there? If you can't get over, it's too high for the birds to fly. ”

"There's always a way."

Claw Meerkats felt that things had been going really wrong lately, first he had been kicked out of the Clan, and then he had been caught by the Grey Meerkats' patrol team, and he had just dug up a few scorpions at their borders, and could he use them to press them down like criminals to the leader of the Grey Meerkats?

"King, we've captured the Meerkats." said the captain of the patrol.

The male leader of the Grey Meerkats has silver-gray fur and a muscular physique, but he appears to be a bit of a goofy. Claw Meerkat's eyes rolled, and he suddenly had an idea. The territory of the fire mongoose clan is larger than that of the gray meerkat, and the two tribes are separated by the Isa River, and the well water has always been the river water, and there is no conflict, and besides, he just dug up a few scorpions, and at most he was beaten up.

"How did the Meerkats come to our territory?" Stone Grey Meerkat, the male leader of the Grey Meerkats, asked.

"He steals our food!"

"I dug it myself." Claw Meerkats retorted softly.

"That's ours too!"

Stone Grey Meerkat's eyes widened, and he looked even more stupid, the Fire Meerkat Clan has a vast territory, and will it worry about food?

"How many did he dig?"

"Ten of them, it's a heinous crime!" The squad leader said angrily. He hadn't caught a scorpion in two days, and God knows how many scorpions there were in that area! Why can't he dig it! He was as angry as someone had taken a treasure from his field.

"Ten of them." Stone Grey Meerkat licked his paws, and was also a little annoyed, more than the total number of caughts he had caught during this time, and it was indeed a great crime.

The talon meerkat's mind spun rapidly. These meerkats have dull coats and emaciated bodies, and they look like they have been suffering from a chronic lack of food, so it's no wonder that they are obsessed with a little food. He rolled his eyes, and suddenly said, "My lord, I can help you find food." ”

"Whoever asks for your thief's help, we will too!" The squad leader said dissatisfiedly.

"Of course I don't dare to question your abilities. But there's always no harm in having more food, isn't it? ”

"That's right, so where are you taking us to find it?" A joking voice suddenly interjected.

"Queen!" The meerkats saluted the comer.

The queen of the Grey Meerkats, Ye Grey Meerkats, walked in with the heat and dust outside, and it seemed that she had just led her people to hunt for food.

"So where do we take us to find food? I don't have that much food in my territory. Ye Grey Meerkat lay down in front of Stone Grey Meerkat, and he helped her comb her hair.

"Honorable Queen, as a sign of my apologies, I can take you to the other side of the river in search of food."

"Meerkats' territory?"

"Yes."

"Well, since you have invited us, we are not an invasion." Ye Grey Meerkat blinked, "They're too busy to take care of themselves now. ”

A large group of meerkats followed the rain and meerkats through the yellow sand and dead grass, and for two days they did not catch any food. Some of the clansmen who were reluctant to let Rain Fire Meerkat be the queen couldn't help but talk behind their backs. Some even offered to go back and look for the Rainbow Meerkat.

"That doesn't seem like the right direction, does it?" Wind and Fire Meerkat looked at the surrounding scenery, and did not see the slightest sense of familiarity.

"You want to leave as you go!" Rain Meerkats scolds mercilessly, and after becoming pregnant, her appetite grows and she finds simply not enough food to eat. In the past, when she migrated with the rainbow meerkat, she had memorized the route carefully, but somehow, she had gone astray, and now she didn't know where it was, the same desolate scenery everywhere, and worse, she couldn't even find her way back.

"Go get Lou Meerkats over." Rain Meerkat commanded.

Lou Meerkat is an old meerkat, she has served the queen for two generations, and insists on going back to find Rainbow Meerkat, but Rain Meerkat doesn't pay attention to her, and now Rain Meerkat is a little glad that she didn't leave the old guy on the road.

"I know you know the route to Red Hill, tell me!" Rain Meerkatat asked urgently, her beautiful fur was covered with a layer of dust after many days of wind and frost, and she was anxious to settle down, she didn't have to suffer to be a queen.

"Oh." Lou Meerkat said slowly, she lifted her drooping eyelids, "I don't understand what I told you, I'll lead the way." ”

Rain Meerkat bit her lower lip and emphasized, "Just tell me." She wanted to get directions from Lou Meerkat's mouth, lead the way, and establish her prestige as quickly as possible.

Lou Meerkats lowered her eyelids, said nothing, and turned to leave. Rain Fire Meerkat paused, twisted it Wind Fire Meerkat body, and scolded: "Something that doesn't make a difference!" "I've been around the rainbow meerkatat for so long, and I haven't learned anything.

Led by Lou Meerkats, the Meerkats moved on in a different direction.

Rainbow Meerkats decided to make a trip to the nearest settlement, Red Hill, first, hoping that someone in her clan might remember the migration route. The direction in which Ansu went was also east, and the two of them had been walking together.
