"Roar!"

The sound is very low and short, but it is very penetrating, and it is exceptionally clear in the quiet of the night. Hearing this voice again, Ye Xuan's drowsy head woke up instantly, because he could hear that it was the cry of a howling cat!

In the National Field Handbook of Mammals, cats are divided into two types based on their calls, whining cats and howling cats.

The cry of a whining cat is sharp and crisp, while the cry of a roaring cat is a low growl. Among them, there are only six animals belonging to howler cats: lions, tigers, leopards, jaguars, snow leopards and clouded leopards.

In addition to this, other cats belong to the group of whine, including cheetahs.

He had been deceived by advertisements for urgent syrup for many years, and it was not until he checked the information two months ago that he realized that the cheetah's cry was not so powerful at all, but as weak as a kitten.

"it!"

After waking up, Ye Xuan sat up from the wooden bed in an instant.

The bonfire under the trees had been extinguished at some point, leaving only a pile of scattered embers, and the stars in the sky seemed to be obscured by clouds, and the whole rainforest was pitch black. He didn't hesitate, hurriedly took out his mobile phone to open the live broadcast room, and then started the drone.

Although the mobile phone has a flashlight mode, the irradiation range is only a few meters, while the camera on the drone has its own night vision mode, and the range of aerial photography is far from being comparable to a flashlight. It's just that what he didn't expect was that with the opening of the live broadcast room, dozens of viewers poured in in an instant, and as time went by, the number gradually rose to more than a hundred.

After these viewers entered the live broadcast room, they immediately noticed that something was wrong. Because this was the first time Ye Xuan had opened the live broadcast in the middle of the night, and his expression was serious, he sent barrage inquiries one after another.

"666, late-night benefits. ”

"What's wrong with the patriarch? “

"Haha, after playing a game, I unexpectedly found that the patriarch actually started a live broadcast. ”

"The victory of the Immortal Cultivators. ”

"I'm about to turn off the computer and go to bed, it looks like I'm going to cultivate immortals tonight. ”

"What's going on now, it feels like the atmosphere is a little bit wrong. ”

At this moment, a low roar sounded again, Ye Xuan frowned, suppressed his voice, and said softly: "Did you hear it? This is already the third sound, and the master who made this roar is gradually approaching me." I'm sure it's definitely a howling cat's call. In the primeval rainforest of Jianfengling, there are not only clouded leopards, but also leopards. ”

Swallowing his saliva, Ye Xuan stared at the live broadcast screen with a pair of eyes, and continued: "In recent years, HN has found several traces of leopards, just last year, a creature suspected of clouded leopards, in the countryside near Huangliu Town, attacked a 60-pound Great Dane, and took away the body of the Great Dane. Later, experts deduced that it was a leopard after analyzing the footprints left at the scene. ”

Due to special geographical reasons, HN has not belonged to the distribution range of leopards since ancient times, so the leopards that have appeared in recent years are likely to be leopards that escaped from circuses or zoos, and it is not excluded that they were raised or smuggled by private individuals and eventually escaped into the rainforest.

It can bite a 60-pound Great Dane in one bite and easily take it away, but with the clouded leopard's petite size of less than 40 kilograms, it can't do it at all, it must be some kind of big cat carnivore. According to the footprints left at the scene, after excluding lions and tigers, only leopards remain, and of course there is a very small chance that it is a jaguar.

"If it's a clouded leopard, that's fine. But if it's a leopard, things are in trouble. Looking at the barrage flashing on the live broadcast screen, Ye Xuan found that most of the audience confused cheetahs and leopards as before, and he couldn't help explaining: "I found that most viewers have a misunderstanding that leopards and cheetahs are the same creatures. In fact, they are two completely different animals, and the only thing they have in common is that they are both felines. The leopard is commonly known as the leopard, and compared to the cheetah, the leopard is larger, more powerful, and has the ability to kill its prey in seconds. ”

"Moreover, of all the cats, leopards attack people the most!"

Clouded leopards are petite, no more than 40 kilograms in size, and can hardly pose a lethal threat to him. Even in the worst-case scenario, it would only leave him with some skin trauma. But the leopard is different, the body length of the adult leopard is more than two meters, and the body size can reach more than 80 kilograms, and it has the ability to kill him.

However, this Jianfengling primeval rainforest is so big, the possibility of encountering that leopard is very small, and maybe it can't adapt to the environment of the tropical rainforest, and it has already died!

Ye Xuan thought as he controlled the drone camera to turn around and aim in the direction where the sound came from.

Theoretically, his chances of encountering a leopard are almost equivalent to winning the lottery once.

Suddenly, on the live broadcast screen of the mobile phone, two faint yellow lights appeared in a tall and dense bush. In the night vision mode of the lens, these two yellow lights are particularly conspicuous.

As the bush shook, out of it came a beast covered in spots of copper coins.

Leopard!

It turned out to be a leopard!

He was just thinking that the odds of meeting a leopard were tantamount to winning the lottery jackpot, but the next second he really encountered it.

Through the live broadcast screen, it can be clearly seen that this leopard is extremely large, even if it does not count the tail, it is 1.5 meters, and its strong body looks at least 100 kilograms.

From hearing the cry to now, it was only a minute or two, and on the live broadcast screen, the leopard did not detour at all, but walked slowly in his direction, as if it had already locked on to the target.

This shows that the leopard is not simply passing by, it is completely for him!

In an instant, Ye Xuan's breathing suddenly became short, and a cold sweat broke out behind his back.

Swallowing and foaming, he struggled to contain the fear in his heart, and his brain raced.

Run?

The leopard runs at a speed of up to 70 kilometers per hour, not to mention in the swamp, even on a flat road, it can complete dozens of streets of Ye Xuan.

Hard anal?

To be honest, he still has some confidence in the face of a 40-kilogram clouded leopard. But in the face of such a large leopard, there is no chance of victory. Especially in the dark night when he can't see his fingers, he is equal to a blind man, the time and place are favorable, and there is no advantage on his side at all.

Wait a minute!

Anxious, Ye Xuan suddenly glanced at the embers of the bonfire on the ground, and his eyes suddenly lit up, like a drowning victim grasping a life-saving straw.

At this moment, the bonfire has been extinguished, and in the dark night, only the charcoal fire in the embers can be faintly seen. Time was pressing, Ye Xuan jumped off the wooden bed with quick movements, ignoring the high temperature in the embers of the bonfire, and directly opened the bonfire with his hand, revealing the charcoal fire scattered in it.

Quickly grabbed a handful of leftover firewood and put it on the charcoal fire, Ye Xuan carefully blew into the charcoal fire. Although he was anxious at the moment, reason forced him to calm down. If the charcoal fire is blown out in a panic, then he can only face this jungle killer in the dark of night with the flashlight that comes with his mobile phone!

Although mobile phones also have some lighting capabilities, they are too small compared to campfires. Not to mention the range and brightness of the lighting, the fact that a campfire alone can make a beast feel intimidated is far from being matched by a mobile phone.
