The weather was a bit hot and dry.

After eating, the lionesses and cubs hide in the shade to rest.

After Chu Xiaoye helped Xi'er eliminate the poison, he continued to practice climbing trees.

He didn't know what month it was.

But depending on the situation, it should be almost the dry season.

There are only two seasons here, the rainy season and the dry season.

During the rainy season, there is abundant rainfall and lush vegetation, which can attract many herbivores.

For them carnivores, this is the happiest season.

Even at the doorstep, you can catch fatty and delicious prey.

Fresh flesh and blood replenishment every day.

And once the dry season comes, food will be scarce.

Herbivores began to migrate in large numbers, rushing to places where there was water and grass.

At this time, many lions have no prey to capture in their territories.

In order to stay alive, lions also migrate with these herbivores.

The journey was very difficult, hungry and full, and even hungry for many days, sometimes not even a drop of water could be drunk.

At this time, the mortality rate of lion cubs will become very high.

Therefore, some powerful lions will choose their territory near the river.

Even in the dry season, there is food to fill the hunger.

Unless the dry season is extended and the river dries up.

And the lion group where Chu Xiaoye is located, near the territory, there is no river, only a few small water sources.

Once the dry season comes, it will be very dangerous.

It hasn't rained for a few days.

The air is also a bit hot.

Near the door, the herbivores of all sizes were gone.

This morning's hunt, the lioness also ran a long way.

By all indications, the rainy season may be coming to an end.

When the time comes, an even greater danger will befall this group of eight lion cubs to nurse.

If there is a migration event, when the time comes, the lion cubs who can't keep up with the team will most likely be abandoned.

There are also a lot of dangers on the way.

Therefore, Chu Xiaoye decided that he should seize the time to exercise his physique now.

In addition to practicing tree climbing, he also practiced endurance and the muscles of his limbs.

In addition to sharp teeth, the battle of male lions requires a strong physique and the fluttering of the forelimbs.

Ordinary male lions can win battles by relying only on their slowly growing size and strength in their prime.

So they are all lazy, they just eat and sleep, sleep and eat, and passively wait for the peak state of their bodies to come.

Then they snatched the territory, claimed the king's hegemony, and formed a group of wives and concubines, slowly waiting for death.

However, Chu Xiaoye couldn't wait.

He has to take the initiative to practice and be strong!

If he trains his muscles strong enough, and when he fights, he slaps him and the other person crawls on the ground, then things are much simpler.

Even when escaping, it is faster than a normal male lion and can run long distances.

Although the male lion is powerful, when running, he has no stamina and can only run a short distance, and then he is out of breath, far worse than a hyena.

Such a male lion looks majestic, but it is extremely easy to be teased.

Hyenas and leopards, who are afraid of lions, and even smaller dingoes, can play with the male lion in applause if they are smarter.

In this case, Chu Xiaoye can't let it happen!

"Whoosh!"

He sprinted, climbed the branches of the big tree, and then walked to the thinner branches next to him, practicing his balance in the tree.

After practicing on the branches for a while, he climbed down the tree again and did push-ups in the grass.

Then he straightened up again, lay his two forelimbs on the trunk of the tree, and bent his back limbs, and practiced his hind limbs with his horse gait.

Soon, his young body trembled slightly, and he became sore.

Still, he persisted.

Meimei lay beside her mother, looking at him quietly and strangely, not knowing what he was doing.

The little lioness seemed to know that her mother was seriously injured, and she seemed to know that her mother was leaving, and her mood at this time was very bad.

Ciel crawled on the ground, closed her eyes, breathed evenly, and seemed to be asleep.

Ever since she had just been licked by Chu Xiaoye, she felt the pain all over her body, gradually reducing, and the wound was numb and itchy, but it was very comfortable.

At the same time, a strong sense of sleepiness swept in.

Before she knew it, she was asleep.

The other lionessses are resting.

The little curly tail lay next to his mother and slept very soundly.

There was only Chu Xiaoye, in the bushes and on the big trees, tirelessly doing all kinds of strange movements.

The sun gradually set in the west, setting on the horizon of the steppe.

A breeze blew, carrying with it a dry heat.

In the evening.

The lionesses are waking up one after another.

The food in the morning did not fill their stomachs.

They also have lion cubs to nurse, so they have to supplement their food, otherwise the cubs will not be able to eat milk.

The male lion didn't know where to go.

The eyes of the four lionesses all looked at Xi'er, who was lying on the ground and sleeping soundly.

If a lioness wants to go out hunting, she must leave a healthy lion behind to protect her cubs.

However, their companion, Cier, is seriously injured and dying, and will soon die.

Perhaps, she won't even survive tonight.

What an unreliable thing to expect her to protect the lion cubs.

"Whew!"

Aisha was a little impatient.

If you don't hunt before it gets dark, the lion cubs will be even more dangerous at night.

Those pesky hyenas like to be active at night.

The other three lioness were also a little impatient, and they all raised their heads and looked into the distance, hoping that the male lion would come back soon.

However, there was no sign of a lion in the distance.

At this time, Ciel seemed to hear their anxious call and opened her eyes.

She stood up.

Although he looked a little tired, a little haggard, his fur was disheveled and covered in blood.

However, her eyes are still bright and resolute.

She stood firm.

Not at all like a poor mother who is seriously injured and about to die!

The eyes of the four lionesses stayed on her, and they seemed to be a little surprised, and they came over one after another and rubbed their bodies and heads with her.

They thought it was a little incredible.

But now is not the time to grind.

The sun is dim.

Night is coming!

The lion lioness did not dare to delay and set off immediately.

Xi'er looked at their backs, lowered her head again, glanced at her daughter, and then looked at the wound on her body, her eyes were stunned, as if she were dreaming.

Isn't she going to die?

However, after just a good night's sleep, now, I don't feel any pain.

Moreover, all the wounds on his body began to heal!

Those pesky flies are gone!

She walked with great ease, not at all like she was seriously injured!

The spirit that was sluggish and in a trance in the morning has now become unusually full and healthy!

What the hell is going on?

She froze for a moment, then suddenly turned her head to look at the tree.

On the big tree, Chu Xiaoye was using his two forelimbs, clinging tightly to the branches, his body hanging down, sticking out his tongue, panting and doing pull-ups.

Ciel stared at him blankly for a long time.
