Chapter 15: "Bestiality, Humanity?"
Seeing that the hare got rid of Li Hang, he pedaled his hind feet around the pine tree in front of him and ran down the mountain, but fortunately he still couldn't run fast.
Li Hang hurriedly got up and chased after him, and when he chased behind the rabbit again, his body changed instantly, and the rabbit appeared.
As the name suggests, the cat is good at catching rabbits.
Li Hang, who had turned into a rabbit, quickly approached the hare, and his stubby and powerful claws grabbed deeply into the rabbit's waist.
The hare was in pain, so he took the rabbit hanging on his body and rushed down the mountain regardless of it.
Li Hang firmly grasped the rabbit with one paw, his two thick hind legs were propped up on the ground, and the other paw waved to maintain balance with the rabbit's beating.
The hare dragged the rabbit for a while, but he had no strength, but he still refused to give up and continued to run forward.
Li Hang felt that the rabbit's speed had slowed down, and when it paused, he hurriedly stretched out another stubby paw and picked at the hare, and the two paws staggered to climb onto the hare, probed the paw into the rabbit's waist, grabbed its relatively soft belly, and scratched hard.
The rabbit felt a sharp pain from his vital being caught, and hurriedly rolled on the spot, and his two powerful hind legs kicked Li Hang's body, trying to kick him away.
"Whoa~Meow"
Li Hang was kicked as if he had been hammered, let out a scream of pain, his eyes were red, and the claws that were clutching his abdomen did not relax, but tightened harder, and took advantage of the fact that the hare was lying on the ground with its turned body, and used his other paw to pull away the rabbit's head, exposing its neck that was protected by its head down, biting his throat and tearing desperately.
The rabbit's throat was bitten, and he couldn't breathe for a while, turned over again, dragged Li Hang under him, grabbed the ground with his two front legs, and moved forward step by step.
Li Hang ignored its dying throes, and the strong bite force finally bit the throat and artery on the rabbit's neck after tearing for a while.
The rabbit moved some distance on the ground before he bled to the ground.
Li Hang licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, gasped for a while, and felt a faint pain under the thick fur on his body, and thought with some fear that if he hadn't turned into a rabbit, he might have been kicked into a bone crack just now.
He didn't dare to rest for long, but when he felt his strength again, he immediately grabbed the rabbit's neck, walked into a nearby bush, buried his head in the wound that had been scratched, and tore it and ate it!
The rabbit's fur was very strong, but it was torn open in a few moments under the rabbit's claws.
Li Hang devoured it for a while and stopped, not that he couldn't finish eating, but even if he turned into a rabbit, he couldn't bite some bones, so he had leftovers for the first time!
With a pile of bones and hair left, Li Hang trotted to the mountain spring, washed the thick hair of the rabbit and licked the unclean blood stains, and walked back to the crack in the rock with satisfaction.
Just as he was about to get inside, he smelled a familiar rabbit smell next to him, which was from the rabbit just now.
He suddenly realized that the rabbit lived here, and he blamed himself with some regret for why he didn't look for this place first, wasting so much of a day in vain, and almost ate a stomach full of worms.
Li Hang thought about it and decided to stay in a rabbit's hole at night, where it should be drier and more comfortable to sleep in!
He followed the smell of rabbits to another crack in the rocks behind a few rocks, which was blocked by a few clumps of weeds that grew messily, no wonder he didn't notice it at first,
He crawled into it, and there was a corner not far inside, and he walked down the corner with his body down.
As soon as he stretched his head around the corner, Li Hang froze.
The other hare was nested in it with its body horizontally, looking at Li Hang in horror with two eyes, and his stomach was constantly rising and falling on his trembling body.
Underneath the rabbit, several little rabbits that had not yet opened their eyes were arching unconsciously, as if they were wondering about the changes in their mother's body.
Li Hang's mind instantly flashed the gray rabbit just now.
No wonder it was so easy for him to spot!
No wonder you run so slowly as a rabbit!
No wonder they only know how to run all the way!
No wonder they are still crawling into the distance when their blood vessels are bitten through!
He figured out what was going on.
All this was all to lure him away?
That should be the rabbit of the man in this hole, he is a great husband, a great father.
Maybe this kind of behavior is just an animal, instinctively protecting offspring, but the spirit of exchanging his life for his wife and children shocked Li Hang!
His human soul hidden in the cat's body was deeply touched.
Facing the mother rabbit and the little rabbit who were blocked in the hole by him and had no power to resist, his heart softened, and he couldn't do anything.
The she-rabbit watched her husband-killer and her child's father-killer retract her head and turned away.
She was a little confused, but then she forgot that her life was hanging by a thread, and she came back to her senses, and lowered her head to arch the little rabbit that had crawled farther away.
After all, they're just animals, aren't they?
Li Hang returned to the rock crevice before, trying to get himself into a state of cultivation, and slowly calmed down his emotions.
Next
Li Hang drilled out of the crack in the rock, looked at the direction blocked by the rock, put away his distracting thoughts, returned to the vicinity of the spring, and continued to walk towards the mountain.
Good luck seemed to come back to him, and on the mountainside, the mountain spring branched off into a tributary,
As it flows down the mountain, a small pond is formed.
The pond under the shade of the trees is shallow, but it is overgrown with aquatic plants, and there are some small silver fish and many frogs and toads that croak.
Li Hang was overjoyed, patiently measured the depth of the water in the pond not far away, and after making sure that most of the water was not deep enough to submerge the top of his head, he spotted a fat frog and ran over.
"Plop, plop"
When the frogs and toads in the pond heard the movement, the noise of "quacking" stopped instantly, and they jumped into the water, or swam to the mountain spring by kicking the water, or jumped ashore and fled to the grass on the shore.
Seeing the frog, Li Hang jumped into the water, waved his claws that stretched out his nails and slapped it out of the water into the air, and when it fell to the ground, several claw marks appeared on his body, and he was out of breath.
Li Hang looked at the frogs who fled in all directions painfully, didn't care about eating the one on the shore that had been caught and killed by him first, stepped on the bottom of the water with great effort, walked to the fork of the mountain spring, and looked at the frogs that were still swimming towards the mountain spring, one by one four or five were slapped on the shore, as for the rest, he really couldn't take care of it, and all of them swam into the deeper mountain spring.
Li Hang was still not in a hurry to eat, but stepped on the wet grass on the shore, lowered his head, and chased after the frogs who jumped into the grass according to the smell of the frogs.
He would come back once in a while, leave a frog in the meadow, and chase after him.
After working for a while, he stopped to look at the 10 frogs scattered on the grass, gathered them together with satisfaction, and ate them one by one.
......
Licking his paws unsatisfied, there was no frog left under his feet, Li Hang sighed with some cat crying mice and fake compassion, it seems that this will be the world of toads in the future, and I don't know if the remaining frogs will be bullied and excluded by toads when they come back!
He thought about it for a while while he was resting after eating, and he didn't bother to bother with the little fish that didn't have enough between his teeth, and continued to walk towards the top of the mountain.
As soon as the sun overhead, Li Hang approached the top of the mountain, and the mountain spring had already probed into a rock crevice on the mountainside, and he left it behind.
The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the sparser the surrounding trees become, and the steeper the slope becomes, leaving only clumps of shrubs and weeds.
Li Hang remained vigilant at all times, never stopped twitching his nose, distinguishing the smell in the air at any time, and walked to the top of the mountain.
The highest point on the top of the mountain is a mound, the surface of the mound is covered with weeds, a few stones protrude, the strong mountain wind is blowing, and yesterday I saw that the clouds and mist on the mountainside have already been blown away without a trace.
He jumped up the mound, stood upright, and stood upright in the grass like an observing marmot, looking into the distance.
Sure enough, more scenery can be seen from higher up, and between the mountain peaks in the distance, there are still white layers of clouds, and the distance seems to have disappeared into the horizon.
Li Hang's eyes widened and he didn't let go of a detail.
Suddenly, a slender white figure appeared in his eyes in the distance, and he hurriedly looked over.
As the clouds and mist in the mountains slowly flowed, the figure appeared for a while, and then disappeared into the clouds and mist.
Li Hang was patient, carefully distinguished, and finally when he showed all his figures, he saw what seemed to be a power tower erected on the mountainside.
After confirming that it was a telephone tower, Li Hang was excited, after all, he had been living in human society before, and suddenly came to this deep mountain and forest, although he adapted quickly, but it was inevitably a little out of place.
Besides, if there were no traces of humans, where would he go to find Zhongnan Mountain? With so many peaks, how could he know which mountain was Zhong Nanshan? Not to mention the coyote, he only had six months, and if he looked for it slowly, he might not be able to meet it in six years.
He didn't turn back the way he came, but firmly remembered the appearance of the hills near where the power tower was located, put his body down, looked in the direction of the power line tower, jumped off the mound, and walked down the mountain.
On this side of the mountain, it seemed that because of the lack of water, the distribution of plants was very sparse, and he went all the way down, except for two different rats in the middle of the day, and he delayed for a while, until the evening, he approached the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the afterglow of the setting sun, Li Hang gave up tiredly and went straight down the mountain. He stopped and looked up to identify the closest of the many peaks between him and the power tower, remembered the position that corresponded to him, and looked for a place to spend the night, without resting.
