Chu Qian hugged Lao Liu's arm a little nervously and asked in a low voice, "It's a wolf outside, right?

Lao Liu patted her hand gently, "There are indeed wolves here, not only wolves, but also many rare wild animals. ”

"Could these wolves be coming at us?"

Lao Liu shook his head, "I don't know very well, and it's my first time here." But listening to the movement, it seems that the wolves are still some distance away from us. Don't worry, the bonfire at the entrance of the cave is lit, and even wolves won't dare to come in. ”

"Well, wolves are afraid of fire. Chu Qian cheered herself up.

But then she nervously asked, "Then why did these wolves suddenly appear nearby? I hadn't heard a wolf cry for several days." ”

"It is estimated that it was snowing heavily, and the mountains were covered with heavy snow, and these wolves could not find food, so they had to come down from the mountains to find food. ”

"Didn't you say that there are a lot of Tibetans around here? There are so many Tibetans living there, how can there be wolves? Those wolves have not been killed by the Tibetans a long time ago?"

"In the old days, Tibetans would have been able to kill wild wolves that threatened them and their herds of cattle and sheep. But now wolves are national second-class protected animals, as long as human lives are not endangered, it is not allowed to kill wolves casually. Besides, it seems that there are many Tibetan villages around here, but these villages are scattered over a radius of tens of thousands of square kilometers, and in fact the population density is still very sparse. There are a lot of small no-man's lands here. It's like there are wolves on the side of my inn, that is, on Nianqing Tanggula Mountain. Not to mention here. ”

Lao Liu is really right when he said this, to the west of Namco is Heishui Bangor and further west is Shenzha belonging to Weizang, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 people living in this tens of thousands of square kilometers of land, and most of them are concentrated in some towns and villages. In some places, there is no one in hundreds of square kilometers, and it can be regarded as a small no-man's land.

There are many high mountains between Namco and Serinco, such as the east-west Langqin Mountain, where there are many wild animals, not to mention wild wolves, even snow leopards can see traces.

Zhang Xinggang leaned over and asked, "Brother Liu, what if those wolves really come to our side?" We don't have guns, nor bows and arrows, and the only weapon is your Tibetan knife......

"It should be fine. The number of wolves here is not very large, and a wolf pack is composed of three or four wolves at most. Besides, there is a bonfire burning at the entrance of our cave, and as long as the fire is not extinguished, wolves will not dare to come in. And don't forget, we also have white lions. ”

Lao Liu's voice was not small, and the eyes of several people were all focused on the white lion.

It's just that the white lion still looks very nervous at this time, which makes Lao Liu a little puzzled.

Listening to the voices of those wolves, those wolves should be some distance away from here, and it is said that at this distance, the white lion should not be so nervous.

"Could it be that there are other carnivores around here?" a thought suddenly flashed through Lao Liu's mind.

"The big guys stay away from the hole. Lao Liu hurriedly said loudly.

Hearing this, everyone retreated, and Chu Qian asked even more nervously: "What's wrong?"

Lao Liu shook his head, "Don't make a sound, turn off your headlights." ”

Seeing that Lao Liu was nervous, everyone else was also very nervous.

After all, this is a legendary pack of wolves.

For these amateur travelers, the wolves are an out-and-out killer.

The headlights were turned off, no one dared to make a sound, and the only sound in the cave was the "crackling" sound of the bonfire burning.

The wolf howl in the distance kept ringing out, but everyone could hear it, and the wolf howl seemed to be closer than before.

At the same time, a strange voice rang out.

The sound was unspeakably ugly, a bit like a donkey barking and a bit like a horse neighing, but it was very ugly.

The voice was short and excited, but there was a hint of hoarseness. The most important thing is that even Chu Qian could hear that there seemed to be a kind of anxiety in this voice.

And the sound wasn't that far from the hole.

No wonder the white lion is so nervous.

Chu Qian leaned into Lao Liu's ear and whispered, "What kind of animal sound is this?" ”

Lao Liu shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know. Lao Liu really didn't know, he had never heard such a call.

"Shhh

Several people tilted their heads slightly and listened for a while, and Wang Yan whispered with certainty: "There is another voice, it seems to be with the ugly voice just now." ”

Fang Zhenzhen also whispered: "Why do I sound like a cat meowing?

Chu Qian also nodded in agreement.

At this time, the unpleasant sound became more and more urgent, and it was closer to the entrance of the cave.

The white lion had already stood up, and the white fur on his body exploded again, and he once again issued a warning voice of demonstration in a certain direction outside the cave entrance.

And at the same time, those wolf howls were noticeably much closer.

At this time, everyone understood that the wolves should have chased the howl. That cry was probably the target of the wolves.

"No, we can't let that guy get near the cave anymore, and if we attract the wolves, we won't be able to save it. Lao Liu said and directly took out the nearly one-foot-long Tibetan knife, reached out and pulled out a burning wooden stick from the bonfire.

Chu Qian grabbed Lao Liu and asked with some horror: "Why do you want to go?

Lao Liu said in a deep voice: "I have to go out and have a look, if we can get rid of the animal near the entrance of the cave, we will be much safer." ”

"But didn't you say that wolves are afraid of fire, and that there is a bonfire at the entrance of our cave, and wolves dare not come in?"

"Wolves are afraid of fire, but the problem is that we don't know what that animal is outside. What if it's a Tibetan wild donkey? The wolf is afraid of fire, but what if the Tibetan wild ass is not afraid of fire? And if there are Tibetan horses outside, then the horse is not afraid of fire. If the horse rushes in and tramples the campfire out, we're in danger. ”

Zhang Xinggang also said: "Brother, you can't go out at this time, it's too dangerous." Even if there is really a horse outside, even if the horse rushes in and tramples on the bonfire, we are more powerful together, and it is better than you going out on an adventure alone. ”

Several other people also spoke out to dissuade them.

Lao Liu snorted his teeth, and finally nodded and said that he would not go out again.

But Lao Liu obviously underestimated the animal's desire to survive, or that the animal had a reason to have to go near the entrance of the cave.

For it was not long before all seven men and one dog in the cave heard the strange barking outside the cave again, mixed with one or two barks like those of kittens, and it was very close to the entrance of the cave.

Lao Liu turned on the headlamp, walked a few steps out with the Tibetan knife in his hand, looked out through the bonfire, and immediately let out a loud "slot......

With the help of the light, Lao Liu saw an animal with gray-white hair and black spots lying about seven or eight meters away from the cave entrance to the north of the cave entrance.

The ground was covered with snow, and although the moon in the sky was only half, it was still very bright, coupled with the illumination of the headlamp, it immediately made Lao Liu see clearly what this animal was.

Snow leopard!

Damn it's a snow leopard!

Almost subconsciously, after roaring, Lao Liu directly blocked the hidden knife in front of him, and the white lion finally let out an angry roar.

The snow leopard is the true king of the plateau, a carnivore at the top of the highland food chain.

What Tibetan wolf, what lynx, including Tibetan mastiffs like the white lion, as long as the snow leopard wants to, can become a meal on the plate of the snow leopard.

Of course, snow leopards generally don't take the initiative to attack such large predators, but what if it's pressed?

The rabbit can kick the eagle to death if it is in a hurry, and the dog can still go up the wall when it is in a hurry!

What's more, this is a wild snow leopard in the wild!

It seemed to feel the wrath of the white lion, or maybe it was a little afraid of the huge size of the white lion, anyway, when the white lion roared, the snow leopard took two steps back.

With this move, Lao Liu discovered that something was wrong with this snow leopard.

There were obvious blood stains on this guy's body, and when it moved, the two little guys were also revealed.

This turned out to be an injured snow leopard with two cubs!

Lao Liu's "" naturally attracted everyone else.

The headlamps of the seven people all lit up, and the snow around the snow leopard was instantly illuminated.

Chu Qian, they naturally also saw this injured snow leopard with cubs.

Several people were dumbfounded, they never expected that a snow leopard would touch the mouth of the cave, which was really scary.

Fang Zhenzhen simply let out a dolphin sound, but only half of it was covered by Wang Yan's mouth, and everyone's faces were frightened.

The snow leopard may have been very uncomfortable by the light of the headlamp, and moved again, and this time Lao Liu clearly saw the wounds on the snow leopard's body.

There are several noticeable scratches and bite marks on its abdomen, back, and left hind leg, with the most serious wounds on its abdomen. The wound looked like a blur of flesh and blood, and it was terrifying.

The snow leopard grinned and roared at the crowd, and the sound was as ugly and harsh as the barking of a donkey.

With this call, the snow leopard showed four canine teeth that made people shudder to look at, and of course, with its mouthful of blood stains, it was even more terrifying.

Lao Liu put his arms around the neck of the white lion, and it was obvious that although the snow leopard was demonstrating, Lao Liu could clearly feel its strength on the outside and on the inside.

You can't even go away, what kind of power are you showing!

"Brother Liu, what should we do?" asked Zhang Xinggang nervously.

"Don't worry, this snow leopard is injured, and it looks like it's quite bad, it shouldn't be able to attack us. ”

It seems that Lao Liu's comfort has played a role, and it seems that even the white lion has noticed the weakness of this snow leopard, and at this moment the white lion no longer roars, but just stares at this great enemy with his eyes.

In the distance, the wolf howl sounded again, but this time the wolf howl was obviously a long distance closer than just now.

The snow leopard turned its head to look behind it, then turned its head to look at the group in front of him. Under the illumination of the light, its slightly blue eyes were full of indifference, ruthlessness, cruelty, and bloodthirstiness.

Even if it didn't roar again, everyone could clearly feel the rich murderous aura emanating from this guy.

Only Lao Liu felt something different from this snow leopard's eyes.

Lao Liu couldn't tell what it was, but he did feel a trace of something else.

Just when Lao Liu was frowning and pondering, the snow leopard turned his head and took a cub from behind him, and pushed another cub out with his paws, and then snorted softly at the two cubs, and in the sound of one of the cubs like a cat, he stretched out his tongue and licked the two cubs, and then turned around without hesitation and staggered into the darkness.

The snow left a frightening stain of blood......

"it...... What is this snow leopard doing?" Teng Zhixin spat fragrantly.

"......"

"......"

A series of "slots" popped out, and even Chu Qian, Fang Zhenzhen and Wang Yan were all spit out the same fragrance.

If they can't see the snow leopard's intentions at this time, then they will be fools.

It's just that this kind of legendary situation happened in front of them, which is really incredible.

Togu!

This snow leopard turned out to be a lonely!

In the cold and snowy night, a group of unknown number of Tibetan wolves are chasing the snow leopard girl, the injured snow leopard mother does not know how much she has trekked, and finally handed over her two children to a group of unknown humans, and then turned around and left, perhaps with her own body to attract those pursuing wolves, leaving a safe space for the children......

Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will probably be completely confused!

Maybe this snow leopard mother didn't mean this, but what it is doing now is obviously supporting the orphan!

Or maybe it's their brains......

Chu Qian's eyes were red, and she grabbed Lao Liu's hand and said with a crying voice: "Hurry up and bring those two little snow leopards back......

Fang Zhenzhen and Wang Yan looked equally uncomfortable.

But Lao Liu shook his head slightly and refused very simply.

"Why don't you go out and bring those two little snow leopards back, aren't you worried that they will freeze to death?" Chu Qian wanted to lose her temper.

"Qianqian, first of all, these two little snow leopards will not freeze to death, and they will not freeze to death at this temperature. Secondly, I don't know if the female snow leopard is really gone, what if I go out and the female snow leopard comes back?"

In a word, Chu Qian stopped squeaking.

Everyone knows that even a wounded snow leopard is definitely not something that people can deal with.

And everyone understands that the wounded beast is more dangerous!

It's just that those two little snow leopards look so pitiful.

One of them was licking his companion with his tongue, and that was his younger sibling or older sibling.

The little snow leopard that was licked remained motionless and appeared to be injured......

Time seems to have frozen.

I don't know how long it was, but the wolf howl sounded again in the distance, but I also remembered the unique roar of the female snow leopard.

It's just that at this time, no one thinks that the roar of the female snow leopard is unpleasant, because everyone can hear it, and the wolf howl that was getting closer and closer just now is obviously a lot farther away from here......

Fang Zhenzhen hugged Wang Yan and choked in a low voice.

At this time, everyone understood what the female snow leopard was doing.

"She" really led those wild wolves away......

"She" did what a mother should do......

"She" did what any mother in the world would do......

Mother's love is not limited to human beings......
