PFC Chapter 9 Life and Death Crisis!
Chapter 9 Life and Death Crisis!
Knowing that the fox was behind him, Cangnian roared loudly, trying to call the tiger mother back, while trying his best to escape.
However, he has only just learned to crawl and is not very steady on his feet, let alone run.
Therefore, after running a few shaki steps, Cang Nian fell to the ground with a thud.
"No... I have to get away from this guy, or I'm definitely dead!"
Despite falling, Cang Nian did not stop. His survival instinct made him crawl belly-to-the-ground even after falling, heading deeper into the cave.
Aww!!!
But just then, Cangnian, who was only focused on escaping, heard a shrill yet childish howl coming from behind him!
Turning his head, he saw that, driven by adrenaline, he had already climbed to the edge of the pool deep in the cave, and before he even opened his eyes, Tiger Brother, who was in the center of the cave, had no idea what was going on!
He escaped to the edge of the pool, but in doing so, he exposed Tiger Brother to the fox!
Moreover, perhaps because Tiger Brother was larger and looked fatter, the fox, whose eyes were already green with hunger, turned its attention to Tiger Brother!
It opened its short snout and began to bite at the tiger brother!
The tiger cub, whose eyes were not yet open, could not resist the jaws of an adult fox and could only howl in fear.
Seeing this, Cangnian felt a chill run through his body, and even his howls stopped abruptly.
If this continues, Tiger Brother will die!
Cang Nian instinctively raised his paw and took a step forward, but the paw remained suspended in mid-air...
He had no means of attacking at all; even his teeth were uneven. Whether he pounced or bit, it would only tickle the fox in front of him...
Even if I went forward, I wouldn't be able to help Tiger Brother escape danger; instead, I would put myself in danger as well.
"Wait a little longer... just a little longer... Tiger Mom will be back... I just need to wait here, I still have a chance to live..."
The fear of death froze Cangnian in place, unable to move, and he could only watch as his brother was torn apart by the fox.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I have no power... I can't save you... I'm sorry..."
Cang Nian watched this scene with great torment, murmuring guilt in his heart.
Awooo—!!!
But just then, a terrifying tiger's roar rang out not far from outside the cave, which invigorated Cang Nian!
She's a tiger mom!
Upon hearing the tiger's roar, the fox, which was still tearing at the tiger's brother, suddenly shuddered. Its hungry, green eyes instantly cleared, and fear crept into its pupils!
Without a second thought, it immediately released its sharp teeth that were biting the tiger brother and ran out of the cave!
The queen of the jungle has returned!
If we don't run now, we're doomed!
Awooo—!!!
But the next second, a huge figure rushed into Cang Nian's field of vision. It was also black, white and orange, but it was far more majestic and domineering than the fox!
She's a tiger mom!
At this moment, Tiger Mom's eyes were filled with rage, and the gentleness she showed when facing Cangnian and Tiger Brother was nowhere to be seen, only a surge of savagery!
Pa~!
The tiger mother swung her paws hard, accurately swatting the fleeing fox down from mid-air!
Woo~!
The fox let out a pitiful whimper and then slammed hard against the cave wall!
Cang Nian could see that bright red blood radiated outwards and splashed on the cave walls, like a ripe grape crashing into the wall at high speed.
Immediately, the fox's mournful whimpers stopped abruptly, and its body slowly slid down, leaving a trail of blood!
The Tiger Mom's terrifying strength killed the fox with just one swipe!
Seeing this scene, Cang Nian's previous fear, guilt, and joy at surviving the ordeal surged up all at once!
These emotions caused him, who had already been staying up for more than six hours and was extremely exhausted, to suddenly black out and faint.
……
"Hmm... I've come back to life..."
After an unknown amount of time, when the sun was shining brightly outside the cave, the old man slowly awoke.
Then, he turned his head to look at the cave wall to the side, where dark red bloodstains indicated that yesterday's crisis was not a nightmare, but reality.
Thinking of this, he quickly looked around and saw the slender and agile tiger mother lying in the cave, elegantly licking her fur, which made him feel safe.
Yesterday's experience made him even more dependent on Tiger Mom.
Without his tiger mom, he would be powerless to resist any crisis, and could do nothing but howl in fear.
Even worse, they could only watch helplessly as their younger brother was torn apart by the fox...
"Wait! Where's Tiger? Could it be..."
Thinking of this, Cangnian stood up and craned his neck to search for Tiger Brother's figure!
But after looking around, he couldn't find Tiger Brother, and his heart sank.
Although Tiger Brother died in the fox's mouth, even if I went to help, the outcome wouldn't change.
But in the end, it was only because he ran deep into the cave that Tiger Brother was exposed to the fox...
If I had grown up normally, I would be just like Tiger Brother now, unable to open my eyes or crawl fast. I would probably be the one who dies.
Tiger Brother died in his place.
Cang Nian felt increasingly guilty.
Woo~!
But just then, a childish voice came from the tiger mother's arms!
Upon hearing the sound, Cang Nian perked up and quickly crawled towards Tiger Mom!
Because he was so excited, Cangnian even tripped and fell, but he didn't care and quickly got up and crawled back towards Tiger Mom.
Finally, when they reached the tiger mother, she skillfully changed from lying down to lying on her side, making it easier for Cang Nian to drink milk.
This change in movement just happened to reveal the tiger cub under the tiger mom's arms.
Woohoo~!
Then, Cangnian saw Tiger Brother whimpering as he climbed onto Tiger Mother's belly and started drinking milk.
"Tiger Brother isn't dead!"
This dramatic scene delighted Cangnian, who quickly went to Hudi's side.
Cangnian scratched at Tiger Brother's neck with its paw, searching carefully.
Finally, he found two rows of symmetrical holes on the left and right sides of Tiger Brother's throat, which would not have been visible unless he looked for them specifically!
"That fox didn't kill Tiger Brother? That shouldn't be the case..."
This result left Cang Nian completely astonished.
An adult fox can easily kill a tiger cub that is less than a week old by biting it with all its might.
But as it turned out, Tiger Brother not only didn't die, but also didn't seem to have any serious injuries!
"Am I not the only one who's special? Is Tiger Brother also an extraordinary little tiger cub?"
Cang Nian thought with suspicion.
It was only when this thought came to him that he realized Tiger Brother was indeed not normal!
It's too big!
The five-day-old tiger cub is twice the size of its own body, which is equipped with a system and is extremely self-disciplined. It is almost the same size as a tiger cub that is a month old!
"Whatever, as long as Tiger isn't dead..."
Shaking his head, Cang Nian thought with relief.
If Tiger Brother really dies, it will probably become a nightmare for him for the rest of his life, and he will live in guilt forever.
Feeling Cangnian nudging him, Tiger Brother wiggled his bottom and moved to the other side, as if making room for Cangnian to drink milk...
Looking at the adorable little tiger brother, Cangnian's lips curled up slightly.
"This time I backed down because of my weakness and cowardice. I will work harder to improve myself next time, and I will definitely be able to protect Tiger Brother next time!"
