Chapter 120: Birthday Ceremony: Part I
"I see." Mu Hongshang nodded suddenly in understanding: "It turned out that it was because the female leopard was seriously injured that my brother was able to take it out."
"Rao is like this, and it took a lot of effort." Mu Zhengyi replied: "The female leopard is already injured and can't move, but when she sees us trying to take it out, she is still very fierce and can't approach it at all." At that time, Tieyi didn't know what to think, so he actually squatted not far in front of the female leopard and began to talk to it. ”
"Huh?" The brothers of the Mu family, who came around to see the leopard together, all showed inexplicable expressions on their faces: "Second brother talking to the leopard? Do you understand? ”
"I think I understood. It is rumored that the leopard in the north is very smart, and I think what I say is true. Mu Zhengyi replied: "Tieyi squatted in front of the female leopard at that time, and told it that now it is seriously injured and cannot be saved, and if the cub is left by his side, it will not live long, so it is better to let us take it away."
Tieyi also told the mother leopard that we are going to bring the cubs home, our home is in the distant capital, there is a little sister at home, we will let the baby leopard grow up with the little sister, it will be well taken care of. There are many similar words, Tie Yi said for a long time, but the female leopard seemed to turn a deaf ear and ignored him, and then when we were about to give up, the female leopard suddenly figured it out for some reason, let go of her paws and let us take the little leopard away. ”
What Mu Zhengyi said is really a bit unbelievable. Mu Hongsheng and Mu Qingyi's brothers all showed exactly the same surprised expressions with a little doubt.
"What are you doing with me?" Mu Zhengyi looked at the expressions of his younger siblings with some amusement: "I didn't lie to you. Otherwise, where do you think we have the ability to get the leopard cubs in Cangqian Mountain? Even if I could get a few hundred horses, I wouldn't have anywhere to buy them. ”
"I just think it's amazing," Mu Hongsheng replied in a daze, and began to look at the little leopard with admiration: "Brother, this little guy cherishes it so much, you actually handed it over to the post post like this?" Really willing. ”
Mu Tieyi approached the wooden cage and stretched out his hand to pick up the leopard's small cage directly: "I rode home, it's still small, if I tie it on the back of the horse and walk all the way, I'm afraid I will die halfway." You can rest assured, the postman of the Northern Post Post will not dare to pit our family's things even if he is bold, and the leopard is rare to see, and most people don't know it even if they see it. The messenger thought it was a bobcat, but when he heard that I was going to take it home to my sister, he promised me again and again, that he would take good care of it. It seems that the envoy really kept his promise and took good care of it. ”
"This is for me?" Mu Hongsheng's eyes widened, with a look of surprise. She reached out to pick up the cage, but seemed to hesitate.
"This is a birthday gift from the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother," Mu Zhengyi smiled and stuffed the wooden cage into Mu Hongsheng's hand: "Big brother has another gift for you tomorrow." You have to take good care of it, but my brothers promised its mother that they would let it live a good life. ”
Mu Hongsheng happily hugged the wooden cage, turned around and wanted to run, but he didn't expect the little guy in the cage to be really fierce, baring his teeth and making a threatening sound, and then suddenly stretched out his round and fluffy claws, and wanted to grab Mu Hongsheng's arm directly through the cage, stabbing and grabbing Mu Hongsheng's cuffs.
"Be careful," Mu Zhengyi was so frightened that he hurriedly picked up the cage again: "This little guy doesn't know you yet, so naturally he won't be polite to you." The leopard is a fierce beast, don't think of it as an ordinary milk cat. Don't look at it as small, the three of us carried it down from the mountain, but it took a lot of effort. Although its mother agreed to let us take it away, it was so fierce that Chiyi was almost bitten by it, and I was scratched several times. ”
"I'll remember," Mu Hongsheng stretched out her long hand to pick up the cage in Mu Zhengyi's hand: "Give it to me, I'll carry it myself, and I'll take it back to the yard."
"It's been locked in the cage for a long time," Mu Zhengyi handed the wooden cage to Mu Hongsheng: "You should also be careful when you release it, be careful if you run away, you have to tie it for a few days, and ordinary soft ropes can't tie it."
"I'll go find my father to ask for a strong chain," Mu Hongsheng hurriedly agreed: "Pick it up with silk cloth, it must not hurt." I let him live in the west wing of my yard, make a small bed for him, and go to the kitchen to ask for a bowl of meat. ”
"Little sister has something to do now," Mu Lingyi walked behind Mu Hongsheng, laughing all the way: "I just don't know how long it will take for this little guy to recognize the master." is so fierce, don't bite your little sister one day. ”
"No, no," Mu Hongsheng hurriedly turned his head and smiled, as if he was afraid that the little leopard would be taken back again: "I must be very careful." Besides, it's not its fault that it bites me, it's still small, isn't it?"
"Then you have to be very careful," Mu Zhengyi also advised: "If you are really bitten, grandmother will not spare it." Don't take it seriously, it's really fierce. The messenger took care of it all the way to the capital, and he didn't know how many bites he had received. ”
"Then the eldest brother can give more money," Mu Jinyi couldn't help laughing: "This trip is not cost-effective, and the crime is great."
Xiao Cangbao's birthday gift really aroused the dissatisfaction of Mrs. Mu and several ladies of the Mu family. Although the little guy is indeed cute, he is indeed very fierce.
After Mu Hongshang took the little leopard back, he really found An Guogong and took out a strong fine iron chain, carefully wrapped it around with cotton cloth, tied the little leopard and released it out of the cage.
Mu Hongsheng originally wanted to do the difficult task of tying chains, but how could Mu Zhengyi rest assured. So it became Mu Zhengyi's hands-on, and Mu Hongshang supervised the work from the side.
Then the little leopard really resisted, punching and kicking with a mouth. Mu Zhengyi dodged the fangs and couldn't dodge the claws, but in the end, he was hit the arm to settle the matter.
Don't look at this little leopard is still small, the strength is really not small, the wound on Mu Zhengyi's arm is quite deep, which scared Mu Hongsheng and Mu Qingyi.
However, the children of the Mu family have been beaten and beaten since they were children, and they are used to seeing bruises, so they are not too surprised. Mu Hongshang just called lotus leaves to fetch water to clean Mu Zhengyi's wounds and bandage.
Who knew that although the children of the Mu family felt that it didn't matter, the elders were very unhappy. Especially when Mrs. Mu found the wound on Mu Zhengyi's arm, she asked very carefully for a while, and then personally took a few Mrs. Mu to Mu Hongsheng's yard to see the little leopard.
Suddenly, seeing so many people entering the yard at once, the little leopard was a little panicked, but he was not at all intimidated, he fell to the ground with his ears behind his back, bared his teeth, and roared and wanted to pounce in the direction of the ladies, but fortunately he had a chain around his neck, and he couldn't pounce.
