Chapter 8 Tiger Mom Hunting, First Crisis!

"Ah~!"

Watching the tiger mother walk out of the cave step by step, Cang Nian subconsciously chased after her for two steps and roared.

Hearing the sound, the tiger mother turned around, the fierceness in her eyes was restrained, and she looked at her gently for a few seconds before running without looking back.

Seeing this, Cang Nian could only stop.

His appetite was increasing with the improvement of his milk drinking skills, and the amount of exercise he did every day, which was far more than that of ordinary tiger cubs, also made him consume more energy, resulting in more milk every day.

And the tiger brother, with an unusually large body, could eat and sleep, and it is estimated that his appetite could be twice as much as his own...

So, although there were only two little tiger cubs, the brothers were big eaters, and their consumption was extremely terrifying. Even if the tiger mother prepared a prey in advance in case of unnecessary use, the energy stored by the brothers had been almost consumed five days after they were born.

Thinking of this, Cang Nian recalled that when he drank milk for the last time, the tiger mother's abdomen was already quite shriveled, and when he was full, he could no longer suck out any milk.

Obviously, in order to ensure the healthy growth of the two brothers, Tiger Mom must go out hunting tonight!

"Then I can't sleep tonight, at least not before Tiger Mom comes back, otherwise if there is any danger, I will definitely die in my sleep!"

Faced with such an emergency, Cang Nian can only make temporary plans.

And he dared not refresh the proficiency of any skills.

Without Tiger Mom, the physical strength he just drank once is all the capital for self-protection!

Thinking of this, Cang Nian came to Tiger Brother and leaned on him.

Although it should be May or June now, Tiger Mom should be a Siberian tiger, and the latitude is high, so the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large, and it is still a bit cold at night.

Therefore, leaning on Tiger Brother, you can hug each other for warmth.

Woo~!

Sensing Cang Nian coming over, Tiger Brother hummed twice and fell asleep again.

"It's comfortable to not understand anything, and there's no need to worry..."

Looking at Tiger Brother, who didn't realize how dangerous it would be when Tiger Mom left, Cang Nian's mouth twitched.

Then, he quietly looked out of the cave, and began to think wildly.

After a whole day of self-discipline, Cang Nian's body was already quite tired, but now he couldn't use up his energy, and he couldn't close his eyes to sleep, which was not an easy thing.

If he was just in a daze, Cang Nian was sure that he would definitely fall asleep unconsciously.

However, every little movement outside the cave would make Cang Nian, whose eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, suddenly wake up.

[Ding~! Open eyes for 3 hours, eye-opening skill proficiency +1! (2/100)]

Unconsciously, three hours passed, and the proficiency of the eye-opening skill increased by one level.

"I don't know how long it will take Tiger Mom to hunt? What prey will she hunt? I hope to catch a bigger prey, so that the time of her next hunt can be delayed a little longer.

By then, I will max out the proficiency of the crawling skill to achieve a qualitative change, and I should be able to run, and my self-protection ability should be much stronger..."

Cang Nian was thinking about some random things in his mind, fighting against physical fatigue.

However, now that his eye-opening skill proficiency has increased by one level, his vision has improved a little, and the clear visual distance has reached five meters, and he can already see the situation at the cave entrance clearly.

In addition, he can basically see clearly in the depths of the cave.

There is no difference from his speculation before his eyes were opened. There is a small pool in the depths of the cave. The area of ​​the pool is not large, only a few square meters.

But it is more than enough to provide Tiger Mom with daily drinking and sink the excess prey into the water for storage.

[Ding~! Eyes open for 3 hours, eye-opening skill proficiency +1! (3/100)]

After another period of random thoughts, the system prompt sounded again, and Cang Nian couldn't help frowning.

Tiger Mom has been out hunting for six hours.

Although he didn't know how long it took the tiger to hunt once, Cang Nian felt that after six hours, the hunting should be over, right?

"Did Tiger Mom encounter any trouble?"

Cang Nian was worried uncontrollably.

However, thinking that the Siberian tiger is the absolute dominant creature in the ecological environment where it is located, and there are almost no animals that can threaten them, Cang Nian felt a lot more at ease.

If she encounters danger, Tiger Mom will definitely run away!

Moreover, even if she really encounters danger, Tiger Mom only needs to roar, and the tiger roar will shake the mountains and forests, which can at least be heard by creatures within a radius of three kilometers.

In order to protect herself and Tiger Brother, Tiger Mom should not run too far when hunting.

Since there is no tiger roar, there should be no danger.

Cang Nian can only think to comfort himself.

At this time, he felt how tormented his weakness was.

Once the tiger mom who protected him was gone, he would be in a state of panic all day long.

This made him determined to be more hardworking, more self-disciplined, and become stronger as soon as possible!

The next time Tiger Mom goes out hunting, he will never be so powerless!

Ouch...

At this time, Cang Nian heard a sound of passing through the bushes outside the cave.

Then, an orange-yellow figure came from far away.

Because Cang Nian's vision is only clear within a range of five meters, the farther it is, the blurrier it is, and he can't see what the figure coming from afar is.

However, this iconic orange-yellow color made him feel relieved.

It should be Tiger Mom's return!

So, he stood up and took two steps out of the cave impatiently.

But after just two steps, he realized something was wrong!

The orange-yellow figure was getting closer and closer, but when it got closer, Cang Nian found that it was not as big as he remembered!

Then, he saw the orange-yellow figure trotting towards him, until the other party entered the five-meter range of his vision, and he was immediately shocked!

"Gan! It's not Tiger Mom! It's a fox!"

Cang Nian couldn't help but burst out a curse in his mind, his legs almost softened, and he quickly retreated.

The orange-yellow figure became clear from blurry. It was a fox with messy fur, rushing towards him with green eyes!

Its orange-yellow hair color with black and white made Cang Nian recognize it as Tiger Mom!

"Ah--!!!"

While retreating, Cang Nian screamed loudly!

Now he can only crawl slowly with trembling limbs, and he can't run yet. He definitely can't outrun an adult fox!

Now the only chance is to bet that Tiger Mom is nearby and his screams can call Tiger Mom back!

A tender voice sounded, Cang Nian tried his best to cry, but it was still too young, and it was estimated that it could not be heard far.

But he did not give up, and continued to cry loudly!

"Ah--!!!"

[Ding~! Baby voice once, baby voice skill proficiency +1! (99/100)]

[Ding~! Baby voice once, baby voice skill proficiency +1! (100/100)]

[Ding~! Congratulations to the host, the baby voice skill proficiency has reached the maximum value, and the skill has evolved into--baby cry! ]

Then, Cang Nian's cry seemed to break through a thick barrier covering his throat, and suddenly became penetrating and extremely loud!
