After Turning Into An Animal, I Rely On My Face To Make A Living

Chapter 24: ◎Prairie Model Working Leopard (24)◎



From the heavy rain to the rainbow hanging in the sky, it took less than half a day. The rain fell suddenly and stopped suddenly.

Before Shi Qiao could follow the boss back to the tree, she saw three lions meeting each other on a narrow road.

There were only scattered shrubs in this area. The two leopards did not dare to cause unnecessary trouble when the situation was tense. They stayed far away from the lions, so they simply lay down in the grass and waited silently for the opportunity to leave.

Shi Qiao didn't expect that she would be able to see the lion fighting scene in this situation.

The little leopard held its breath and concentrated, not even daring to take a big breath for fear of disturbing the furious lion.

Even if she was lying far away, she could still hear the thunderous roar of the lion in her ears. Shi Qiao looked out from the gap in the tall grass, relying on the leopard's unusual eyesight to see everything the lions were doing.

As Sunny slowly approached the two stray male lions, Charlie and Pucci also approached to shorten the distance between them. There are two lions on their side, and they have already set up a formation to attack from the left and right. Just by looking at the confrontation between their eyes, she can feel the undercurrent.

Finally, Sunny sped up and pounced directly on Pucci, who was closer to it.

The male lion leader raised his two front paws along with his upper body, letting his advantageous size cast a shadow on the opponent. The front paws slapped each other hard on the head and body at the same time. Charlie on the side saw this and stepped forward to help. The three male lions struggled together.

Shi Qiao thought that if there was a chance to separate the two stray lions and defeat them one by one, it would be easier to deal with them than now. Unfortunately, the two lions were inseparable.

The fight between male lions turned this grassland into a colosseum. The little animals did not dare to get too close. They stretched their necks to watch from a safe distance. Even the giraffes stopped eating slowly. With their outstanding height, they became the best God's perspective in the audience.

Shi Qiao felt that all the animals on the grassland loved to watch the excitement. She did not dare to turn her head too far and glanced behind her.

There were a few meerkats using the grass to block their thin bodies and watching enthusiastically. Further away there were cheetahs, three or two storks, and lizards on the rocks.

They all used her and the boss as a barrier to the arena in the front row, while they hid in the back row and watched.

If these little animals were usually so close, Shi Qiao had to chase after them no matter what, just as a snack, but it was not the time to pay attention to this right now. As the voices of the lions became louder and louder, the scars on their bodies gradually increased.

The bodies of male lions weighing hundreds of kilograms are fighting together. You can hear the intensity of the battle just by the sound without looking.

The thick claws with sharp nails penetrated the enemy's flesh fiercely. Sunny's claws and canine teeth worked together to bite the weaker brother in front of him first.

Compared to his brother Charlie, Pucci has no fighting skills. Most of his skills are focused on hunting. Facing such a ferocious lion leader, he was naturally bitten and defeated.

After all, he is older and has annexed other lions. Sunny's tactics are very targeted.

The little leopard was like a spectator on the sidelines, analyzing the battle situation in his mind while watching.

Pucci was obviously at a disadvantage and could only grit his teeth and retreat behind Charlie. The two brothers originally wanted to fight two against one, but the lion on the opposite side saw the flaw and attacked the weak one first, so they changed their tactics and started a round-robin battle. When one failed, the other would take over.

The physically fit Charlie was much stronger than his younger brother, and every attack he made was filled with murderous intent.

Sunny was bitten by the opponent's fierce attack and took a few steps back. White mist-like breath came out of his nose. The torn wound made his face slightly distorted in pain. Now was not the time to stop and check the wound. Facing the blood oozing out from his back, the lion leader dodged the opponent's bite, turned from defense to attack, and opened his mouth to bite on the spine.

The onlookers felt a sharp pain in their spines just by looking at it.

Unfortunately, the lion's spine was too hard. This blow did not kill him directly but made the opponent's eyes red with pain, and his eyes were filled with fierce bloodshot eyes.

Charlie rolled on the spot and pulled his back out of Sunny's mouth. Blood flowed out and dyed the green spiky grass on the ground red. Pucci behind him was also furious and rushed over after seeing this.

Sunny spit out the bit of flesh, and the mane under his neck was stained with the enemy's blood, with a strange light shining in his eyes.

The two brothers still lacked fighting experience, and they lost their way when provoked by it. Pucci, who could have retreated due to Charlie's delay, overestimated his strength and came to fight again. For Sunny, it was asking for death.

These fledgling lions are not as good as some leopards in terms of fighting skills. They have grown so big in vain.

As the tail of a steel whip swung behind his back, Sunny didn't even look at Charlie, who had just struggled to get up, and decisively dealt with Pucci in the shortest possible time.

Shi Qiao's eyes dazzled, and Pucci's last roar came to her ears. The brotherhood collapsed, and one of the male lions was bitten on the neck.

The two-on-one advantage collapsed. The severely injured Charlie gritted his teeth and stood up, preparing to retreat. His brother had already staked his life here, and he could not repeat the same mistake.

Shi Qiao's eyes widened as she watched the stray lion flee in the direction of the leopard.

Sunny, who had just dealt with Pucci, immediately discovered the lion that was trying to escape. He dropped the male lion's body and chased in this direction. However, the distance between them was too far, and a certain male lion was eager to escape, and within a few steps, the other lion had a chance to leave.

Seeing that the battlefield was about to shift here, the little leopard wanted to pull her big brother and leave quickly.

Unexpectedly, just as the distance between the eager-to-escape lions and them quickly shortened, Klein, who had just been waiting to see what happened, jumped out of the tall grass and blocked Charlie's path.

The outcome has been decided, and it would be useless to let go of a competitor easily.

The male leopard targeted the opponent's fatal part and bit down on the neck like a hunter. Sunny, who originally thought he couldn't catch up with the enemy, was surprised. He watched the leopard ambush in the dark and kill his enemy.

Klein licked the blood from his mouth, raised his head, and looked at the lion leader from afar. His eyes seemed to say, trash, how can you let go of your opponent?

Sunny was so angry that his wounds aggravated the pain. Being ridiculed like this was a great shame and humiliation for the Lion!

It's a pity that it suffered a lot of injuries, otherwise, it would have been necessary to go over and give the leopard a look. The lion's angry and jumping expression was all seen. The male leopard didn't even bother to avoid it, and impatiently barked at the male lion in the distance.

If you can, come here. The male lion with its remaining health is not a threat to him at all. If the other party dares to act rashly, he can let Sunny die with this stray lion.

After all, he has been crawling around in the grassland for so many years. Sunny is a lion who knows the current affairs very well. He blew out a breath at the leopard, turned around, and went back to find his wife and children.

Only a fool would come up to look for trouble at this time. Besides, the other party helped it once.

He reluctantly lets the leopard go.

After the male lion swung its tail and walked away, Shi Qiao stepped forward to look at the lion carcass lying there, and she was relieved after confirming that the two stray lions had been caught.

The hand-to-hand battle just now was still replaying in her mind, and every attack made her nervous and excited. In the end, Sunny was able to keep his territory and was unable to let the stray lion successfully invade.

This territory still maintains the original distribution of beasts, but after this battle, the lions retreated further north.

The tense atmosphere when they met before was gone. It seemed as if they were deliberately separated from each other and kept separate.

This result couldn't be better for the cheetahs. They don't have to face other foreign beasts, and they have a peaceful and harmonious situation with the lion leader. Even a certain cheetah is beaming with joy.

Being far away from the lions, it doesn't have to be snatched back and forth by the lionesses when hunting, not to mention how happy it is.

There is a group of lions on the outside in the north. Ordinary predators do not dare to break in easily. This is equivalent to helping to build a city wall guarded by male lions in the lower reaches of the territory. If there is any disturbance, the lions can act according to their reaction.

After finally settling down, Shi Qiao returned to the acacia forest and asked Klein: "Didn't boss say he wanted to see the lions die together? Why didn't you take advantage of that time to go up and fight with the lions?"

Klein took the little leopard's head, pressed it, and licked it, and then said lazily: "Didn't you say I should fight less?"

Tsk.

Shi Qiao shook her head and refused to continue licking. Now he used it as an excuse. She had never seen the other party be so obedient before.

The last reason the other party gave for this was that if they didn't want to fight, they wouldn't fight, and they would fight only when they wanted to.

All in all, it all depends on his mood.

Shi Qiao thought to herself that Klein was indeed different from other leopards. It was hard to say that the boss helped the male lion kill the stray lion without the intention of letting the other party owe him a favor. But in the process, she had to bet on whether Sunny had any brains. 

Fortunately, the lion leader also understood the leopard's intention and consciously expressed his future stance.

Klein looked like he was not concerned about the matter, but in fact, even the lion had a firm grasp on it. Shi Qiao didn't have time to think so much at the time. Looking back now, some leopards had already thought of their next plan when they decided to jump out to stop the stray lion.

If Sunny didn't appreciate it and came to attack, he could take advantage of the opponent's exhaustion just after the battle and get rid of this stubborn old trouble in one fell swoop.

If the other party appreciates it, they can silently reach a consensus just like they do now, and they will not easily provoke leopards in the future.

The little leopard couldn't help but admire the male leopard around her.

Not only can he fight, but his brain is better than that of ordinary leopards. If she hadn't been with him day and night since childhood, she would have thought that Klein was some kind of ghost.

Shi Qiao turned his head to look at the big leopard lying next to him. Now that the sky is darkening, the moonlight covers the leopard like a thin veil, making the spots around it glow with silver light, making it look like a rare and exotic animal described in a book.

Sensing the sight of the little leopard, a certain male leopard also turned his head.

There was no fierceness in the golden eyes like when they were fighting. Being watched quietly like this, it felt like the calm golden lake under the eyes turned into a whirlpool, which could suck people directly into it.

Unconsciously, the little leopard gave him a paw after being fascinated by it.

With this kind of talent, he can become a nymphomaniac to big men.

Klein held down the paw she used to pat his head with disapproval, and moved forward to lick her paw that was used. Shi Qiao's paw immediately became numb.

She silently thought to herself that the moon tonight must have magic power, otherwise, why would she feel dizzy after being licked?

Shi Qiao shook her head, trying to wake herself up. The smell of a certain male leopard has become more and more fragrant recently, and the soles of her feet feel a little weak after smelling them for a long time.

However, it was a humid rainy day, and there was a lot of rotting grass and animal carcasses around. The smell of the boss could just cover up the odor coming over, and the whole thing was like a leopard-shaped incense.

After smelling it for a long time, she got used to it. Not long after the little leopard buried her face in it, she started to feel sleepy.

Some experts have said that people sleep best in places where they feel safest, and animals are no exception.

The quality of her sleep has always been very good around the boss. Even if they were sleeping in the open air under a tree, she could sleep peacefully. Shi Qiao rubbed the soft "leopard print blanket" under her head with satisfaction. She felt the top of her head being licked by the other person, and then she fell asleep peacefully.

After driving away stray lions, they survived the worst rainstorms in the grassland, and the rainy season is coming to an end.

Shi Qiao has grown from a young-looking sub-adult to a reserve soldier who is just one step away from adulthood.

Except for the big boss, she has no other similar people around her to use as a reference. Even though she is almost an adult, she doesn't feel that way. Compared with the other person, her body shape is still far from impressive, let alone compared to the other person's strength.

After blooming, the little leopard is even more beautiful than before. Because the hyena is quite famous on the grassland, it attracts many other animals to watch her.

The "leopard involved" knew nothing about this.

Animals can't look in the mirror every day, so they can only look at their reflection when drinking water. The reflection was blurry and could not be seen clearly. If she had to judge for herself, she could only say that she looked like a leopard with a leopard head and a leopard face, very feline-like.

Her aesthetics have been completely based on the male leopard around her. She feels that the coolest one is like a big man with a strong and smooth body and majestic eyes. It is not good to look too sweet in the wild and has no deterrent effect at all.

She doesn't know since when, but more and more small animals dared to come and admire leopards.

Some are not afraid at all and dare to chirp and point under the tree while the leopards are sleeping.

Klein, who was next to the little leopard, opened his eyes first and roared impatiently under the tree. The deep voice was very aggressive. The animals immediately fell silent and ran into the forest chasing each other.

Shi Qiao had been woken up long ago, but she was too sleepy to open her eyes.

It is not once or twice that unscrupulous animals come to disturb the leopard's sleep under the acacia tree. They are also very clever and do not dare to come when they are awake. They make a lot of noise in their ears when they sleep.

The little leopard, who was still awake, was so annoyed that she knocked her head on the tree. Then she was licked by the big man next to her, and the remaining sleepiness was thrown away.

Shi Qiao resented this.

She is still growing, and not sleeping well will affect her growth.

Klein licked the drooping eyelids of the little leopard. She was almost an adult and would not grow much longer.

Shi Qiao: "..."

There is no such thing as damaging a child's self-confidence.

She also wants to grow into a figure that can compete with the big guy, and she definitely can't stick to this height!

Since she didn't get a good night's sleep, she could only start with nutritional supplements. Shi Qiao stretched on the tree and did a few yoga downward-facing dog and upward-facing dog poses to revive her muscles after lying down all night.

The little leopard walked underground in high spirits and called out to Klein, who was still calm.

"Boss, come down quickly. I'll take you to hunt."

The little cubs that once could only sit in the trees waiting for prey are no longer what they used to be. Now they are also responsible for dragging the big guy out to work when he is occasionally lazy and doesn't want to hunt.

Experienced wild animals can tell just from the humidity in the air that most of the rainy season has passed. They should seize the remaining opportunities to hunt hard, strive to make themselves stronger, and prepare for the barren dry season.

Some herbivores who were prepared for a rainy day have discovered the changes in the plants and started to slowly move northward in advance.

When passing through the territory of wild beasts, it is a good opportunity for them to fill their stomachs.

She was very lucky today. Before she had gone far, Shi Qiao smelled the scent of herbivores.

The little leopard drooled as she looked at a group of wildebeests not far away. The buffalo wildebeests and zebras are a bit big for leopards and are inconvenient to hunt. Usually, they are lucky enough to encounter lions hunting them, and then they have the chance to catch the second round. 

Being so close to the prey now, but being able to see and eat it, feels like tying a leopard to a tree and hanging the meat in front of it.

Klein saw the greed of the little leopard and walked towards the wildebeest without hesitation.

Shi Qiao quickly followed.

Compared to zebras, wildebeests are heavier, and getting kicked is no joke. Even lions have to cooperate in hunting to catch one.

But now they are not hunting alone. If two leopards cooperate, the chance of hunting success will still be much higher. Just like the last zebra hunt, this time the target is also the young wildebeest. Shi Qiao took over the banner of the main hunter and took the lead in targeting the prey of his choice.

Ever since the little leopard almost reached adulthood, she no longer only served as a support person. She would only switch to the boss when she felt that he couldn't handle it.

Although the wildebeest is difficult to deal with, Shi Qiao also wants to give it a try.

She had never caught a wildebeest.

The wildebeest is uglier than other antelopes, and a little more delicate than the buffalo. When Shi Qiao got closer and looked at the wildebeest, which had a bull's head and a horse's face, a strong body, and was much taller than a leopard, she felt a little undecided.

It is really difficult to catch large prey like wildebeest on her own.

However, she had already walked through it, and it would be too cowardly to sneak away behind the boss's butt. Shi Qiao was determined to keep up.

The tacit understanding developed over such a long time means that the two leopards do not need to communicate with each other before hunting. They know what each other is going to do next with just a look and a movement.

Seeing the male leopard that was ahead of her launch an ambush, Shi Qiao also jumped up. It was not difficult to drag the young wildebeest, but what was difficult was to prevent the adult wildebeest from counterattacking the leopard.

Fortunately, wildebeests only move in small groups during the rainy season and have not yet reached the size of a large herd during the dry season. There is no way to form a wildebeest shield and poses a huge risk to predators.

Five or six adult wildebeests lined up in a row and kicked at the leopard very fiercely. Shi Qiao chased the little wildebeest away from the wildebeest herd. When she heard the thumping of hooves behind her, she involuntarily accelerated her feet, fearing that the other party would kick her to the sky.

Klein blocked the adult wildebeest's attack route, disrupted the wildebeest phalanx from several directions, and delayed the adult wildebeest's efforts to rescue the young wildebeest.

Seeing that they couldn't hit the agile leopard with their kicks, the wildebeests lowered their heads and used the "weapons" on their heads to hit them forward, hoping to knock the beast through with their horns.

Seeing that these big guys were getting anxious, the male leopard stopped playing gladiatorial games with them and turned around to run toward the little leopard and its prey.

Shi Qiao had just taken the opportunity to drive the prey away from the group. No longer scrupulous, she ran to a place parallel to the wildebeest and raised her front paws to pounce on the other side.

As a result, the juvenile had an idea in advance, and its desire for survival exploded. When the leopard pounced on it, it turned its feet and let the opponent miss.

Shi Qiao was surprised for a second, and quickly followed the wildebeests, who had already reached this point. If the prey managed to escape, she would not have the shame to go back and see Klein who had worked so hard to hold down the other wildebeests.

The little wildebeest is considered to be the smartest juvenile of its age. He didn't even dare to look back, and ran into the beech forest with his hooves staggered alternately.

It is said to be a forest, but in fact, it is just a few trees.

Shi Qiao was very familiar with the terrain here. He could even figure out where the other party would turn. After bypassing the last zelkova tree in front of them, they were outside their territory. Shi Qiao suddenly increased her speed and ran over to surround the prey.

But despite all her calculations, she failed to predict that her prey would be intercepted first.

Shi Qiao was dumbfounded when she saw the unfamiliar leopard in front of her on the right that had jumped on the wildebeest first. She didn't even stop at a flying speed and almost collided with the leopard on the opposite side.

Fortunately, she had good eyesight. When she saw a figure jumping out next to her, she hid on the other side. She had already run outside the territory and was probably going to be expelled by the boss.

For a few seconds after slamming on the brakes, Shi Qiao's brain kept spinning.

Grab? 

Or not to grab it?

She said grab it, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to defeat the male. But she said no, but she was very unwilling to do so.

Shi Qiao glanced back and caught sight of Klein coming. Her mind became hot and she rushed forward with courage. The big guy came to support her. Grab it!

The little leopard bared its canine teeth at the fellow opposite, bit one of the little wildebeest's hind legs, and dragged it towards her with all its strength.

As a result, the other party looked at her and was stunned. She didn't use any force at all, and she easily dragged the entire prey back.

Shi Qiao was overjoyed and had no time to think about why she won so easily. She turned around and ran away with her prey, going back to meet the boss.

The little leopard called twice to the male leopard: "Go, go, go, that leopard's territory is over there."

She just smelled the territory mark.

Shi Qiao's teeth were sore from holding the prey in her mouth. A young wildebeest is as big as an adult impala, and it is difficult to run while dragging its prey. She was thinking about asking the boss to help, but then she watched the other person pass by her.

Klein's eyes became dangerous as he looked at the same kind who stood still and stretched his neck to look at the little leopard.

Like two clusters of flames, they will burn the male leopard that has been reluctant to leave into black ashes.

Shi Qiao knew just by looking at the opponent's back that the boss was in a bad mood and wanted to fight again.

She had no choice but to let go of the prey in her mouth and silently walked over to inflate the opponent. She originally wanted to go back and taste the fresh wildebeest. Unfortunately, a certain leopard turned into a living king of hell and was so arrogant in other leopard's territories.

Seeing the beautiful little female approaching, Felix, who was hesitant at first, was even more reluctant to leave first.

It stood there with its head high and its chest high, staring intensely at the little female approaching it. As soon as it cleared its throat and was about to say that it was willing to give up the prey to the other party, it was punched by the big leopard.

The ferocious male leopard next to the opponent didn't even give it a chance to speak and started to fight when it came up. It was very arrogant and unreasonable!

While Felix was hiding in embarrassment, he cast his admiring eyes at the little leopard.

It had just snatched this territory from other leopards and was not familiar with the surrounding leopards. It thought that the two leopards had successfully paired up, and started poaching in front of the other male without any burden.

Shi Qiao wondered what was wrong with the leopard's eyes, and almost blinked her eyelids away.

She was anxious to go back to eat, and couldn't wait to join the battle. The hyenas would smell it and come over if he continued to fight.

As long as he beats the other party away, the boss can go back to eat with her, and she can eat the wildebeest she longs for. Shi Qiao thought so, and mercilessly bit down on the other party's paw that wanted to rest on her body.

Felix shrank back suddenly, staring at the "thorned rose" in front of him with lingering fear.

It thought that the other party was coming to come to its side, and was about to approach him to hook up with him, but almost got a bite from her for no reason.

But it doesn't matter. The prettier the little female is, the hotter her personality is. The mature male likes this kind of character. The severe pain in the leopard's body interrupted the leopard's happy thoughts. As soon as it raised its eyes, the eyes of a certain male leopard turned into actual sharp knives and pierced it.

The little leopard in front of him obviously didn't show any signs of being successfully pried. She was standing nearby, always ready to find an opportunity to attack.

Felix dodged back and forth in pain, and finally realized that a certain male leopard was not just beating him casually for the sake of honor, but really wanted to kill him!

The great territory that had just been snatched could not be killed so easily. Felix slipped quickly under his feet, and his speed was comparable to that of a cheetah.

Before leaving, he still flicked his tail at the little leopard, indicating that they would meet again in the future.

Klein was furious and was about to catch up. Shi Qiao finally had a chance to stop him: "Go back to eat quickly, or the vultures will eat up all the prey if we don't go back."

Seeing that the other party was still unwilling to give up, the little leopard added, "Your little baby is going to starve to death", and then she successfully stopped the big boss in the fight.

Shi Qiao went back to chase away the vultures, dragged the hard-earned little wildebeest into their own territory, and found a hidden bush to cover up the smell of food.

After running for such a long time, she even got into a small fight for no reason in the middle, and her stomach growled with hunger.

The prey that had been torn open by the vulture and lost a large piece of meat tasted particularly sweet. The little leopard ate hard and only raised its face with satisfaction after eating until its belly bulged again.

She was very annoyed by being penetrated by a strange leopard just now, but now she is healed again by the delicious prey.

Food is indeed the light of life, Shi Qiao sighed while rubbing her belly.

The little leopard was healed by the wildebeest meal and was in a good mood again, but Klein had no appetite. Even Shi Qiao felt the low pressure from the other party that had not dissipated for a long time.

He must have been unhappy when she stopped him from fighting just now. The little leopard tore off a piece of meat from the prey, fed it to the opponent's mouth, and winked at the big boss.

Eat, eat, eat. If you're not happy, just eat something. Wildebeest meat is even more delicious than she imagined!

Perhaps because the little leopard's gaze was too sincere, Klein finally opened his mouth and allowed the other party to feed him a large piece of wildebeest meat.

After eating his own food, she had to be responsible for feeding it piece by piece. If she didn't feed him, he wouldn't eat it. Shi Qiao sighed. It was really hard to be a little follower, and she had to pay attention to the boss's mood all the time.

She simply raised her head and rubbed the other person's head: "If it doesn't work, let's find a chance to fight it again."

Choose a time to go when they are full of food and drink. She will definitely not stop him and let Klein have a good time.

Unexpectedly, the other party had complicated eyes and rejected the proposal.

Originally, he didn't want to see the eyes of other male leopards staring at the little leopard, and bringing the bright "prey" to the door. Klein held it in for a long time, but couldn't hold it back and took a bite of the little leopard's ear.

She finally became smarter after being raised as a fool, but she couldn't tell what the other male leopards were thinking.

Very slow!

If Shi Qiao knew what the other person was thinking, she would definitely feel wronged.

It's outrageous. She follows him around all day long and is led everywhere when he sleeps, eats, and drinks. To this day, she has not been kicked out to be independent. He has always believed that she is still a sub-adult who needs supervision.

Who cares what the male leopard thinks? If they have this time, they might as well catch a few more prey before the dry season arrives.

If he doesn't have a love brain, then of course the little follower trained by the big boss will become a pure career girl!
