Chapter 18 Tiger Mom's Hunt

The sun sets in the west. After exercising for an afternoon, Cang Nian and Tiger Brother return to the cave along the original route at the call of Tiger Mother.

Although the two brothers are in the growth stage now, sleeping outdoors will not be a problem.

But a shelter from the wind and rain is a good place for them to improve their comfort. There is no need to suffer if they can be more comfortable.

"It's about the same as my plan. After unlocking the jogging skill, I can run about 3,000 meters a day and accumulate three levels of proficiency. If I go out at dawn tomorrow, I should be able to run 4,000 meters..."

On the way home, Cang Nian calculated his gains and was quite satisfied.

Every drop of sweat will not be wasted!

However, the tiger does not seem to sweat, so when Cang Nian is too hot while jogging, he can only open his mouth to dissipate heat.

And Tiger Brother on the side is exhausted.

Because today, not only Cang Nian will rush it to exercise, but even Tiger Mother is urging it. In addition to the necessary drinking milk, excretion, and rest, it is impossible for it to be lazy.

The reason why Tiger Mom did this was, on the one hand, because of Cang Nian's influence. She felt that since Cang Nian was so self-disciplined, Tiger Brother couldn't fall behind!

In addition, there was another reason, which was Tiger Brother himself.

Tiger Mom finally discovered that Tiger Brother's growth rate was too amazing.

Although Tiger Mom couldn't remember how fast she grew when she was a child, Tiger Brother's growth rate was too incredible.

It was only twelve days old, and it was almost ten kilograms. Tiger Mom was shaking it with her mouth!

Moreover, this cub was not only able to eat and grow, but also very lazy.

If this continues, he might become fat like a ball in the future, unable to hunt, and starve himself to death.

Therefore, Tiger Mom was very supportive of Cang Nian urging Tiger Brother to exercise!

...

Thirteenth day after birth.

Without Cang Nian's pleading, Tiger Mom took Cang Nian and Tiger Brother out early in the morning and walked towards the vast open space again.

This time, the herd of elk that drank water by the stream yesterday was gone, but there was a group of sika deer.

Unlike yesterday, Tiger Mom did not rush out of the dense forest this time, but gently pressed her claws on the heads of Cang Nian and Tiger Brother, signaling them not to move.

Then, Tiger Mom crouched down, and under the cover of the dense forest, she approached the stream step by step.

With every step, the muscles under Tiger Mom's gorgeous fur moved slowly, and the ground touched by her paw pads, even though it was full of humus layers of fallen leaves, did not make any extra movement, as if the mute button was pressed!

Seeing this, Cang Nian's eyes suddenly lit up!

Tiger Mom is going to hunt!

Counting the days, it has been almost four days since Tiger Mom last ate.

A silly roe deer, only more than 20 kilograms of pure meat, even if Tiger Mom does not need to feed the cubs, it can only last for a week at most.

And now, Tiger Brother and I have to drink milk once after exercising for a while, at least eight times a day, up to twelve times a day, which consumes a lot of nutrition for Tiger Mom.

Not to mention, the brothers' growth rate is much faster than that of ordinary tiger cubs, which consumes more energy from the tiger mother.

Therefore, it is estimated that the nutrients that the tiger mother had eaten before have been almost consumed. It is wise to eat as soon as possible before starving.

It will be too late to try hunting when you are really hungry.

Looking at the tiger brother who was ready to move, Cang Nian hurriedly pressed his claws on its mouth.

The tiger brother is not stupid, and he can see that the tiger mother is going to hunt, but he is still a child, and he is excited to shake his tail.

Cang Nian is afraid that it will be too excited and make a noise, which will interfere with the tiger mother's hunting.

Being pressed by Cang Nian, the tiger brother is puzzled, but under the "majesty" of Cang Nian, he can only lie down obediently.

It's good that he didn't get beaten!

At the same time, the tiger mother has patiently lurked 100 meters away from the stream.

At this time, the sika deer have not yet noticed the approaching danger.

However, the tiger mother did not think of getting angry, but slowed down and continued to approach.

After all, the closer you get in the lurking phase, the shorter the distance you need to chase in the sprint phase, and the higher the probability of successful hunting.

Step by step, Tiger Mom is only 30 meters away from the nearest sika deer. Tiger Mom has begun to adjust her breathing and is ready to start at any time!

At this distance, she is already 70% sure that the hunt will be successful!

Whoosh--! ! !

However, at this moment, an extremely agile figure suddenly burst out from the flank of the sika deer herd and pounced on an adult female sika deer!

Thump thump thump--

Such a sudden movement made the entire sika deer herd boil. They hurriedly fled and went directly into the deep jungle on the other side of the stream!

And Tiger Mom was slowed down by this scene. She was stunned for a second before bursting out and rushing towards her original goal!

However, a second slow is enough to open up a distance of dozens of meters for a creature like sika deer that is proficient in sprinting!

The tiger mother ran and chased with all her might, but she still lacked endurance. After chasing for 300 meters, her speed slowed down and she couldn't catch up with the prey.

Aww! ! !

She had originally wanted to show her hunting skills in front of the two cubs, so that the two little ones could see how powerful their mother was. As a result, because of that uninvited guest, she wasted her time and energy in vain. The tiger mother was immediately furious, and a tiger roar shook the whole jungle!

Then, she looked around with her tiger eyes, and then her eyes lit up!

Not far away, a big cat with circles and spots all over its body and shiny fur was biting the neck of a hornless sika deer, and the sika deer was still struggling on its four hooves!

Seeing this, the tiger mother was in a very happy mood, taking elegant cat steps and walking leisurely towards the big cat.

The big cat, on the other hand, was alert and fearful, dragging the sika deer that was not dead yet, but after dragging two steps, its eyes became clear.

Then, it let go of the sika deer in annoyance and fled in the opposite direction of the tiger mother!

The sika deer stood up immediately under the instinct of survival, but was just knocked down by the big cat, and was bitten on the throat and shocked. It couldn't accelerate explosively, and was instantly knocked down by the tiger mother who was well prepared!

Snap~!

As an adult tiger, the tiger mother's bite force is much more amazing. It easily bit off the throat of the prey, causing it to die without much pain.

Although the hunt was unsuccessful, she was lucky enough to snatch a prey. The tiger mother was in a very happy mood. She dragged the prey and walked towards the hiding place of Cang Nian and Tiger Brother.

Hunting ability is a skill for survival, and so is the ability to rob!

As a tiger, in this jungle, except for adult brown bears, other predators can only obediently offer their prey!

It is the queen of this jungle!

Seeing that the tiger mother hunted successfully, Cang Nian and Tiger Brother hurried out to greet her.

At the same time, in the gap between the bushes on the other side, a pair of eyes watched this scene quietly.
