In the evening.

The lioness returns from the hunt.

However, nothing was found.

In the morning, they had already gone out and returned empty-handed.

In the afternoon, they set out again under the scorching sun, and only now did they return, but they still did not catch their prey.

There are fewer and fewer prey on the grassland.

They traveled long distances, but in the end they didn't bring anything back.

Father Leng lay in the shade of the bushes, looked at them coldly, and continued to sleep with his eyes squinted.

He was so hot that he didn't want to move.

Ral woke up from sleep, but was disappointed that he didn't see his prey.

He felt that the current lioness were becoming more and more useless.

Pregnant Kelly and Maya, lying in the shade, glanced at the three sisters and were equally disappointed.

They now need a lot of food to fill their hunger during pregnancy.

The three lioness returning from the hunt had a dry mouth, were hungry and thirsty, and were in dire need of hydration.

They want to go to the river to drink.

However, the lion Leng Father had no intention of standing up and going with them.

Kelly and Maya, too, lay in the bushes and closed their eyes.

They had been staying here, sheltered from the scorching sun, and had no activity, and were not too thirsty.

Kelly and Maya are pregnant, and Leng's father's mane is too thick.

It's too hot.

None of them wanted to move.

Moreover, the three lionesses did not bring back any prey.

They all seemed to have some resentment.

Aisha and Ciel, as well as the severed-tailed lioness, looked at each other and had to silently turn around and prepare to go to the river by herself.

Little Curly Tail and Mei Mei ran over and let out a "whoosh" sound from their mouths.

They're going too.

However, they seem to be telling their mothers to make them wait.

The elder brother went to the bushes behind him, and stopped them from following them very harshly.

I should have gone to pull the stinky smell.

Because every time my brother went to pull the stink, he wouldn't let them follow, and every time he pulled, he would dig a pit with his claws, and after he finished pulling, he would bury the stink with soil.

At first, they didn't understand it and laughed at their brother.

Until one day, they accidentally smelled the smell of their brother's stench, and then, they understood.

They are grateful to their brother for doing this.

Therefore, whenever my brother said that he was going to pull the stink, they would never follow him, and they also took the initiative to stay away.

They are really scared.

At this time.

In the back of the bushes.

Chu Xiaoye was following the boundary line newly marked by the Seno brothers, looking for the black thing left behind from last night.

However, the situation is very eerie.

Those things were gone, and there was not even a trace or smell left.

What is it that can wipe out all the things that even a male lion can stink and run away?

Is it a hyena, or a wild dog?

It's understandable that dogs eat.

However, he didn't feel that the things he left behind were objects that dogs could swallow.

It was the waste material in his body, and the dregs left behind in the fresh flesh and blood he ate every day.

There may even be other unidentified substances.

It's also possible that it's a shell.

Those things are not afraid of stench, they like heavy things.

Forget it, now that it's been cleaned up, then he doesn't have to bother anymore.

He was going to come over and bury it.

After all, those objects have no power after a day of exposure to the sun.

The Senno lions have also learned their lesson and should not be approaching this terrible bush again.

They wouldn't have thought that this kind of terrible thing was actually pulled out by their own kind.

They may think that in this bush, there is some extremely poisonous creature hidden.

Anyway, they are not short of this territory, and there is no need to risk vomiting or even coma to come back.

After all, food is hard to come by, and what you spit out may not be able to be eaten again.

"Smack!"

Suddenly there was a small noise in the bushes behind him, like something stepping on a dead branch.

Chu Xiaoye didn't look back, crossed the border line, and wandered around the bushes that had been snatched away by the Seno lions for a while before turning around and returning to the camp.

When Catherine saw him leave, she quickly got out of the bushes and followed.

The three lionesses waited anxiously, and when they saw that he had finally returned, they immediately prepared to leave.

Chu Xiaoye screamed and told them to wait, then quickly climbed up the baobab tree and took out a white thing like animal entrails from the storage room.

That's the wildebeest's bladder.

Although it looks deflated, it can be blown like a balloon and can store a lot of fresh water.

He didn't collect much, only five.

Of course, there are other prey bladders, but they are all relatively small and do not store much water.

He took out this larger bladder, mainly to carry water.

And where to store water, he has already thought about it.

However, if it doesn't work, it doesn't have to be.

The trunks of the two baobab trees were extremely thick, like two giant water tanks.

One night, while practicing his skills on the branches, his sharp claws pierced the bark of the tree, and he immediately felt a hint of wetness.

Later, he found that the baobab tree, which had lost its leaves prematurely, although it looked extremely water-starved on the surface, as if it had withered, actually stored a lot of water in its body.

Its wood is extremely loose, like a sponge, which absorbs and hides a lot of water, while its bark, which looks dry and rough, can lock in water well and prevent it from evaporating.

If you hollow it out from the middle, pour water into it, and store it, it should be able to store it for a long time.

Of course, in order to maintain the survival rate of the tree and prevent water evaporation, the space in the middle must not be too large.

The trunks of the two baobab trees are extremely thick and tall, and even if they only carve out a small amount of space, they can store enough water for the lions to survive the entire dry season.

Chu Xiaoye has been standing on the first branch of the baobab tree for the past few days, trying to use his claws to start hollowing out from the middle of the thick branches, which is surprisingly easy to dig.

The loose wood contains moisture, and it doesn't take too much effort to carve out a small space.

He decided to bring some water back first and put it in it to try.

If it works, then he will act immediately, just like digging a well, and go straight into the hole to continue digging.

As for the manhole cover, he also thought about it.

He put all the wood he had taken out into a warthog skin, and when it was full, he sprinkled some water in it and stepped on it into a wooden cork that could plug the hole directly.

Even if he doesn't step on it too tightly, it doesn't matter, he still has a lot of hides to use, and when the time comes, all of them will be blocked at the entrance of the hole to prevent water from evaporating from above.

In order to survive the first dry season of the lion's life, he had to make these preparations in advance.

Every dry season will be a cruel and ruthless elimination.

Only the most tenacious life has a chance to live.

And he, perhaps, does not have the tenacity of other beings, but he has the courage to live and the wisdom of human beings.

He will use these to lead the entire lion pack and continue to live strongly!
