Chapter Forty-Nine: The Battle of the Man and Lions
In the half-awake and half-asleep room, Li Meilian spent another night outside the city, and in the tent she could avoid many dangers, but she also did not perceive some potential dangers, fortunately they spent a peaceful night again.
The danger at night is not necessarily higher than during the day, and on this day they were riding on the road and encountered a pack of lions. Thankfully, they didn't get too close to the lions, and as soon as they spotted them, they turned around and fled.
The lions had apparently spotted them as well and began to chase them. The Taoist priest threw down his bicycle and climbed a small stone mound with Li Meilian nearby.
The lions quickly surrounded them, and there were three adult lions, and they were holding planks and splitting down to prevent the lions from climbing up. But the lions did not give up, and the planks did not cause them much damage, and the situation became more and more critical, and they could not hold out for much time, and they were in danger of being climbed up by them at any time.
At the critical moment, Li Meilian felt that there were fluctuations in her personal space, and she knew that this was her relatives supporting her. She took out the items that her relatives had scanned for her, a full barrel of gasoline, which she immediately poured down, lit her own lighter, and threw it down.
With a "boom", the lion in front was quickly covered in flames and tumbled and fell. The other two lions were also startled and fled directly after being frightened.
"Shall we escape?"
"What if they catch up?" the Taoist priest was cautious and made his own suggestion: "We are also tired, so it is better to rest here for a while before making plans." ”
Li Meilian nodded in agreement, she knew that a thought now was related to life and death. The lion is the king of beasts, not something that humans can defeat, and once they fight head-on, they have no chance of winning.
The Taoist priest went down and cut off a piece of meat from the lion, roasted it again, and shared it with Li Meilian.
"If we don't kill these lions, we will never be safe. ”
"To put it mildly, what are we going to do?"
Li Meilian felt that he was a little ashamed, and it was just a fluke to kill a lion just now!
"Try to lure them over and continue to burn them with fire. ”
"I'm afraid that they can't be lured easily, and the danger factor is very high. ”
"No matter how dangerous it is, we have to try, if we don't act, we will only fall into a more dangerous situation. ”
The Taoist priest said that he was going down again, but Li Meilian grabbed him in fear and begged, "Can you not go?"
"It's okay, I've got light skills, they can't catch me easily. ”
Li Meilian couldn't persuade him, so she had to let him go, and she prepared two barrels of gasoline on the edge of the small stone hill, and waited for the lion to come and fall down.
The Taoist priest went for a long time and didn't come back, Li Meilian was nervous and anxious, worried that he would be retributed and eaten by a lion, and regretted that he shouldn't have eaten lion meat just now.
After a while, the Taoist priest finally returned, and he said with a happy face, "I have found a way to kill them!"
"What's the solution?"
"I found them nesting under another rocky mound, and the two lions were resting at the moment, and I had to sneak up the mound and pour gasoline on them, and I was afraid that I would not kill them. ”
"Well, you can try. ”
"You don't have to go, I can solve it alone, just give me gasoline. ”
"No, how can you be in danger alone!"
Li Meilian was righteous and rejected his kindness, she felt that she could not stay out of dangerous things.
"Okay, let's be together!"
Seeing her resolute appearance, the Taoist priest felt that he might not be able to persuade her, so he had to agree to the two of them to act together. There is great strength in the number of people, and the more people there are, the better chance of victory, and only fighting and winning are the best ways to avoid danger.
It's a disaster that can't be avoided, and if she wants to die in this battle, it's also fate. There are times in life that must be there, and there are times in life when there is no need to force it, and if he wants to survive in this world, he can't protect her as a vase.
Only by growing up can he better protect himself, which is another reason why he decided to take her to fight with him.
The two secretly came to the small stone mound, Li Meilian didn't see the lions, thinking that the lions were on the other side of the stone mound.
The Taoist priest led her up the stone mound lightly, and poked her head out from the other side on her stomach.
Li Meilian really found lions below, in addition to the previous two, there were several other lion cubs. After taking out the gasoline, Li Meilian hesitated a little, the Taoist priest didn't care so much, he picked up a bucket and poured it directly, and the gasoline was poured on them.
When the two adult lions spotted the humans, they immediately roared angrily, having long forgotten the previous lesson, and shuffled to attack the two.
The Taoist priest took out a wooden plank, dipped it in gasoline, lit it with a lighter, and threw it at the lions. One of the adult lions was immediately set on fire and turned into a sea of fire in its wail, while the other did not light the torch because it had been poured with oil and had not been contaminated with much gasoline.
"Do you have any bottles on you?"
"What for?"
"Try to deal with another lion. ”
Li Meilian felt that there was another fluctuation in the space, and she took out dozens of bottles, some glass bottles and some plastic bottles. The priest filled all the bottles with gasoline, then rained down on the other lion, staining it with a lot of gasoline on it, in front of it, behind it, and under it, and set it on fire again, and threw it at it.
In ancient times, Zhuge Liang burned people with fire, and now they also follow his example and burn lions with fire.
Cruelty is not nature, as long as it is related to one's own life and death, it will be stimulated, whether it is a human or an animal,
Li Meilian is just a pity for those little lions, and they also suffered under the catastrophe of burning lions, but this is also a helpless thing, in the face of life and death, people always give priority to themselves.
Isn't it ridiculous how to pity others if they can't protect themselves?
Even if you want to be a virgin, you have to have that strength.
The two were about to leave when they unexpectedly found a lion cub. The lion cub may have been mischievous and left the lion pack, so he escaped a catastrophe. It's just that without the care of an adult lion, I'm afraid it won't live for a few days.
The two looked at each other, and Li Meilian finally hugged the little lion. The little lion was only the size of a kitten, and it did not resist in Li Meilian's arms.
Li Meilian looked at the cute little lion and unconsciously fell in love with it. Many things don't need a reason at all, just a simple lion made her decide to raise a lion cub.
