Evolution from the crocodile

Fortunately, it really works.

After dawn, the three little guys were obviously in better spirits than last night.

Especially Crocodile Girl, she swallowed two crucian carp in succession. After eating and drinking, the little guy slowly crawled beside Lu Chen, rubbing his head here and there, and even hanging his tail.

This girl is getting more and more clingy to him.

Lu Chen touched his head speechlessly, and then leaned closer to the other person.

As if she felt safe enough, Crocodile Girl quickly calmed down and purred slightly.

This guy first caught a cold, and then was seriously injured by a clouded leopard.

I spent the whole yesterday in panic and pain, and now I can finally sleep well.

While sleeping, it keeps smacking its mouth... If you ignore the appearance, it is almost the same as a human child sleeping.

After Little Crocodile Girl fell asleep, Lu Chen quietly got up.

He roared several times at the crocodile boss and the crocodile boss, telling the two guys to stay in the cave while he climbed out of the cave.

As soon as we left the cave entrance, we felt the biting cold wind blowing.

This is a bad phenomenon, the temperature is still continuing to drop!

The temperature of more than ten degrees is considered very comfortable for the warm-blooded animals in the jungle. But for the three sub-adult Gulf crocodile cubs, it was almost the end of their endurance.

If the decline continues, they could literally freeze to death.

Lu Chen felt a sense of urgency in his heart and couldn't stay here any longer. Once the little guys have recovered slightly from their injuries, the migration plan will be started immediately.

Thinking about the matter, Lu Chen moved his limbs and slowly swam into the cold river.

As the temperature drops, the fish swimming in the river are much sluggish than before.

Groups of them all gathered deep in the water grass.

Lu Chen caught it very easily. He swallowed more than ten catfish in succession without much effort, and finally filled his stomach.

Then, he caught two more and hung them on the top of the pit trap as bait.

The trap was rebuilt by Lu Chen last night, and the purpose was naturally to hunt the clouded leopard.

Judging from the clouded leopard's reaction yesterday, if his scent continues to stay near the cave, the other party may not dare to appear at all.

So after doing all this, Lu Chen disappeared into the nearby jungle.

Soon, he appeared again on a tall masson pine tree more than a hundred meters away. Through the gaps between the dense and slender pine needles, I quietly observed the movement around the cave.

The dark brown scale body blends perfectly with the color of the pine tree trunk, which is equivalent to natural camouflage. Even if an animal passes under the tree, it cannot detect Lu Chen's presence.

What's more, this is downwind, so theoretically clouded leopards shouldn't be able to smell it.

Lu Chen had already made up his mind that as long as the guy fell into a trap, he would pursue and intercept him in a roundabout way as soon as possible.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the clouded leopard did not appear.

Lu Chen was not in a hurry about this.

For crocodiles, the most important thing is patience.

In nature, they can even lie dormant for a whole day in order to catch their prey.

It wasn't until the sun turned westward in the afternoon that a familiar smell finally came to the air.

Immediately, Lu Chen saw a figure peeping from a distance.

This guy was very vigilant. Only half of his head was exposed, and his body was almost completely hidden in the grass, making no sound. The cunning and cautiousness of cats are vividly interpreted.

If it weren't for the smell, Lu Chen wouldn't have noticed its existence.

Seeing that the long-awaited enemy finally appeared, he quietly moved his limbs a few times, adjusting his body to the best condition, ready to attack at any time.

But less than half a minute after the guy appeared, he suddenly turned around and quickly disappeared deep into the jungle.

Nima, what's going on? Lu Chen was a little confused.

He could confirm that he was absolutely not exposed.

Could it be that this guy deliberately faked a shot to test whether there was any danger around him?

The distance between the two was too far, and it was useless for Lu Chen to chase them now, so he simply continued to wait patiently.

If it is confirmed to be safe, this guy will most likely appear again.

The sun sets little by little in the west, and the temperature in the jungle continues to drop. Lu Chen squatted among the trees for a whole day, and now his limbs were starting to become cold.

Until nightfall, the clouded leopard never appeared again.

Lu Chen jumped down from the branches with some depression and followed the river back to the cave.

He still couldn't figure out what went wrong that allowed this guy to escape at the last moment.

It wasn't until I climbed ashore and saw the deep pit and trap that I suddenly realized it.

Superfluous!

After the Clouded Leopard was injured, he became more sensitive and suspicious. When it saw new changes near the pit trap, it probably brought back painful memories, so it ran away quickly.

There is no other explanation.

If he had known this, he shouldn't have wasted such a good opportunity.

The next day, Lu Chen still refused to give up and stayed there for another day.

Finally, I had no choice but to give up.

It seems that this guy will not appear in a short period of time, and his idea of ​​revenge for Little Crocodile Girl has completely failed.

Lu Chen didn't have much time to waste. Seeing that the three crocodiles had mostly recovered from their injuries, he decided to take them away immediately.

On a clear afternoon, the sunshine softly splashed on the ground, bringing endless warmth to the jungle.

Ripples appeared on the calm river surface, and Lu Chen kept sliding his limbs and swimming slowly upstream.

Little Crocodile Girl clings to the back of the broad and thick scales, making excited sounds from time to time.

The little girl's wound has not yet completely healed, so she cannot get wet at all. For safety reasons, Lu Chen decided to carry it on his back the whole way. I have the experience of carrying gold dots on my back, so the whole process is very safe.

As for the crocodile boss and the crocodile boss, they naturally did not receive such treatment and could only follow behind them.

Crocodile Lao San's decision to suddenly abandon the cave and leave was beyond the imagination of a few little guys. However, the long-term pressure prevented them from having the slightest idea of ​​resistance, and they just followed him honestly.

Not long after they left, the clouded leopard reappeared near the big banyan tree, its pupils emitting an indescribable light.

Then, it let out a low roar in the direction of the river.

There seems to be a bit of unwillingness in it.

***

Squeak, squeak!

On a big rock near the water bank, a plump mountain rat made a sharp hissing sound. The two small mung bean-sized eyes were full of fear and pain.

It struggled to get into the bushes not far away, but was unable to move its body.

Only when you get closer will you find that the little guy's limbs have been severed and he can only squirm back and forth on the big rocks.

Rustling...the movement of the prey finally caught the attention of a krait.

This guy raised his ferocious head as big as a duck egg high and kept swallowing snake cores, searching for smell particles floating in the air. Soon, it accurately detected the existence of the target.

The yellow and black body swam quickly among the grass, with a hint of excitement shining in the snake's eyes.

It seems that in just the next second, he can enjoy the wonderful prey.

Wow! !

Huge waves suddenly appeared on the calm water nearby.

A dark giant jumped out of the water, more than half a meter high in the air, and its strong toe claws suddenly fell down on the krait's head.
