"Bang!"

Suddenly a gunshot rang out in the distance, and it was heard exceptionally clearly in the silence of the night.

The sound of this gunfire seemed to fall on Chu Xiaoye's heart, and his whole body trembled.

It had been so long since he had heard such a sound that he had almost forgotten about these terrible weapons that would kill all animals.

Humans came to the steppe.

And the animals of the steppe have only two choices.

Stay here, waiting for the sudden gunfire and death that comes one day.

Or, migrate away and go to a more distant place, far away from humans.

But such a place, this world does not exist.

This gunshot woke Chu Xiaoye up.

The lions stayed here, and maybe one day, they would be killed by humans with guns and guns.

He wants to save Father Leng and Meimei, but he must not risk other members of the lion pack.

The eastern sky, gradually whitening.

No one slept that night.

When it was almost dawn, Chu Xiaoye walked in front of Catherine, looked at her dark eyes, and expressed his meaning seriously and seriously.

"Take them with you, and leave first."

He hoped that Catherine would be able to take refuge in another world.

Only Catherine knew the path, and she knew that Catherine was able to enter the Ice Forest and communicate with the elves.

This task is none other than her.

As for him, he has to stay here for the time being to rescue Father Leng and Meimei.

If Father Leng and Meimei have already encountered an accident, then he will take revenge and then leave.

Catherine refused stubbornly to his order.

She was reluctant to leave.

She just wanted to follow behind him, no matter where she went, whether she could live or not.

This little lioness doesn't know how terrible humans are.

Chu Xiaoye looked at Nunu and Kiki, who were frolicking not far away, and looked at his mother and several other lionesses, these were his relatives, if they all died under the guns of humans, he really couldn't accept it.

He was already very remorseful and guilty when he didn't leave with everyone at the beginning, and now, if he can't take everyone to a safe place first, and insists on rescuing Leng's father and Meimei, when something happens, I'm afraid that he will live in pain for the rest of his life.

"Catherine, obedient. Take them first, and I'll definitely go back. ”

Chu Xiaoye expressed what he meant again, this time, not an order, but a plea.

Catherine still looked away, did not respond, and expressed herself in silence.

"Brother, I'm not leaving!"

Little Curly Tail suddenly walked over and expressed his meaning firmly.

He didn't want to be separated from his brother again, never.

Moreover, the father and Meimei were captured by humans, and it is his responsibility to rescue them.

Chu Xiaoye ignored him, his eyes were still looking at the little lioness in front of him, he was silent for a while, and said: "Catherine, if you leave with them and send them to the elven clan safely, then when I go back, I will ......"

Catherine suddenly looked back and looked at him, her eyes twinkling and shining in the night.

"I'll grant you one request."

Chu Xiaoye's eyes were sincere.

Catherine's dark eyes, staring into his eyes, plucked up the courage to express what she meant: "Any requests? ”

Chu Xiaoye nodded and said, "Any request." ”

Catherine fell silent again.

Then she raised her head again, took two steps forward, looked at him from below with her face up, looked at him for a moment, lowered her head again, rubbed her head lightly against the mane on his neck, then looked up into his eyes and said what she requested.

"Promise me that you will come back."

That's what she wants, the only request.

Chu Xiaoye looked at her eyes with tears in her eyes, and was in a trance for a moment, and the scenes about the little lioness appeared in her mind unconsciously.

"I promise you."

Chu Xiaoye's gaze was firm.

Catherine lowered her head, slowly retreated, and stepped aside, her back lonely, standing alone, just as she had been.

"Brother, I'm not leaving!"

Little Curly Tail once again stubbornly expressed what he meant.

"Bang!"

Chu Xiaoye slapped his head with a paw and directly slapped him to the ground.

For this kid, he won't have a good face.

"If you don't go, who will protect Kiki and Nunu along the way, and who will protect your mother? Can Catherine do it alone? ”

Now that all kinds of animals are fleeing, there will definitely be more powerful beasts on the way, and no matter how powerful Catherine is, she will not be able to do anything.

The little curly tail lay on the ground, tears of grievance about to fall.

"Set off at dawn, don't delay!"

Chu Xiaoye gave him an ultimatum.

Although he was reluctant to meet him when he first met, the situation was critical now, and there were humans running around with guns every day, and if he didn't leave as soon as possible, he might not be able to leave one day.

There are some things that must be decisive.

Chu Xiaoye walked over and said goodbye to her mother and Xi'er, as well as Jasmine and other members one by one, and told them to follow Catherine to another place and build a new home.

Everyone is very reluctant, but they all know that they can't stay here any longer, and if they hesitate, there is only a dead end.

And they stay, it has no effect, it can only be a burden.

Aisha licked his hair lovingly, Ciel rubbed his neck tenderly, and Kiki and Nunu came to say goodbye to him.

Jasmine rubbed against his body as well.

Chu Xiaoye suddenly found out that Jasmine was pregnant, this little lioness's movements were not normal, and she was pregnant at first glance.

Male lions have the keenest sense of smell when a lioness is pregnant.

He turned his head and looked at the little curly tail.

The little curly tail kid was suddenly a little embarrassed, twisted his body, his mouth cracked, and he looked funny like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

Chu Xiaoye was very happy, and the lions finally began to spread out.

However, he felt the courage on his shoulders heavier.

"Don't wait for dawn, leave now! Immediately! Right away! ”

Chu Xiaoye decided to come down, let out a low roar, and informed Catherine and all the members of the lion pack.

"Bang!"

At this moment, a gunshot rang out, and suddenly it rang out not far ahead.

Immediately, a lion's roar sounded.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

The gunshots rang out continuously, and the lion's roar immediately fell silent.

At the same time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded and they were approaching this way.

"Quick! Duck into a cave! ”

Chu Xiaoye immediately asked Little Curly Tail to hide with them.

This rocky hill is full of thorns and strange rocks, and it is difficult for horses to pass, and it is difficult for people to walk, and it is not yet light, so they should not dare to come and venture here.

Little Curly Tail immediately led the members of the lion pack and burrowed under the bushes and into the cave.

Chu Xiaoye and Catherine also walked over and hid in the dense bushes and huge rock thickets.

He reminded Catherine to keep her head down and hide her eyes.

In the dark night of the prairie, they could see everything around them clearly, but their eyes that shone in the dark night became the most striking mark of the human discovery of them.

They must hide their eyes and hear with their ears.

"Wang! Woof! Woof! ”

There was the sound of a hound!

The world has become like this, and mankind has retreated to all kinds of remote places, and still can't forget those cruel entertainments?

Hunting dog?

This thing wants to show off here, too?

Chu Xiaoye's heart swelled with anger, the cold light in his eyes flickered, and his body naturally exuded a terrifying beast aura.

Before the barking hounds could get closer, they suddenly whimpered, turned around with their tails between their legs, and ran away, frightened to pee.
