Chapter 43 Give this young mother a fish

Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing suddenly turned their heads and looked at the place where the sound came from.

Ten meters away, there was a leopard lying low.

The leopard's fur is brown and white, dotted with black spots, and its tail is extremely long, almost one to one ratio to its body length.

"Snow leopard?" Zhao Xinqing whispered.

The commentators also saw this snow leopard through the live broadcast lens, and all of them exclaimed:

【Digging! Now it’s more fun.】

[They just left the bear's den and entered the leopard's mouth again. They were a bit unlucky...]

【Is the snow leopard’s tail so long?】

[The longest tail in the cat family, I’m not kidding you.]

Su Bai frowned, slowly stretched out his hand, and held the short fishing rod in his hand.

The two of them faced each other across the fire for a while.

The snow leopard let out a low roar from time to time, but looking at the two people and the flames in the woods, a pair of dark green eyes clearly showed hesitation and fear.

Zhao Xinqing raised her hand and threw the roasted herring far away to the snow leopard.

The snow leopard looked wary, sniffed the herring, lowered his head, picked it up and ran away.

He was extremely agile and disappeared deep into the forest behind the rock wall in a flash.

Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

The barrage praised:

【Dr. Zhao is still witty!】

【Abandon the fish to save your life!】

[The question is... can people really live in this place? A bear on the left and a leopard on the right, is it too dangerous? 】

Zhao Xinqing looked at the barrage, shook her head and said:

"I don't give it fish because it's dangerous."

"This leopard doesn't dare to attack us."

"If we hold on for a while, it will retreat."

Barrage:

[You...are too confident in the rich second generation, right?]

【That’s a leopard! Snow leopard!】

Zhao Xinqing sat down, picked up another fish, and said with a smile:

"Unlike pumas and leopards, there are almost no records of wild snow leopards hurting people."

"We still have fire."

"In addition, we are two people. Although modern humans have poor fighting skills, snow leopards don't know this."

"Before humans evolved into civilization, they were actually ferocious beasts with strong fighting capabilities. Don't underestimate the human body."

Barrage:

[Meaning...can humans defeat snow leopards?]

[With no teeth or claws, you can’t even penetrate the snow leopard’s fur, right?]

[Liar, if we really fight, the snow leopard can kill you two without any harm.]

Zhao Xinqing shook her head seriously:

"It's impossible. A woman of my size, after training, can kill that snow leopard with a certain amount of damage, let alone a man."

Barrage:

【???】

【real or fake?】

[Are you really a doctor of zoology? What you say is inconsistent with common sense? 】

Zhao Xinqing explained:

"The offensive power of human beings does not lie in the sharp teeth. We have evolved in another direction, but the power is not small."

As she spoke, she stretched out her jade-white hand, put it in front of the camera, and shook it twice:

"If humans want to kill wild beasts with bare hands, they rely on pinching or choking."

Zhao Xinqing made a chokehold with her arms again.

"Except for humans, no beast can perform similar movements. Even gorillas cannot match the dexterity of humans."

"Elbow strikes, kneeling kills, smashing attacks...these are all deadly moves that are unique to humans."

"In mammals, combat effectiveness ultimately depends on weight."

"That snow leopard only weighs a hundred pounds. In a head-on confrontation, an adult male has an overwhelming advantage. Even without training, as long as he is calm, he can kill a snow leopard."

"The snow leopard's only possibility of victory is to attack in a sneak attack and bite its neck off with one bite. But humans walk upright, so it is difficult for their throats to be bitten off head-on. If the attack fails, the snow leopard will fly half of its body into the air and will immediately fall into a disadvantage."

The barrage was speechless...

[That makes some sense...]

[Then you give it the fish? In the final analysis, you are still afraid?]

Zhao Xinqing sighed, shook her head and said:

"It's because this female leopard has cubs."

"I saw her breasts were swollen."

"The activity range of snow leopards is usually in the mountains, and this is already at the foot of the mountains. If they come here to look for food, it is most likely because the snow leopards have given birth to too many cubs, maybe three to four, and the food is not enough, so they have to run down."

"A young mother hunts all night but fails to find food for her cubs. How do you tell her to go home and explain to the little leopards who are waiting for food?"

"Anyway, we can't eat three fish in one meal. Give her one, it's nothing."

Barrage:

【……】

[It turns out it’s because Dr. Zhao has empathy???]

【I am stupid...】

[A reason beyond the scope of my knowledge...]

Su Bai was angry and funny when he heard this:

"She couldn't find anything to eat all night. Isn't it because she squatted in the woods and watched us for half the night?"

Zhao Xinqing laughed out loud at first, and then when she remembered that when she and Su Bai were sleeping in "that position", there was actually a snow leopard as an audience, she couldn't help blushing again, and whispered:

"Snow leopards are usually very polite, so just...just think of it as a reward for her!"

Su Bai didn't care about it at all, it was just a fish, it was nothing.

"However, building a shelter must be put on the agenda."

"We have no ill intentions towards snow leopards, but we must have proper defense, otherwise it would be bad if we were attacked at night."

After all, snow leopards are big cats. It is still very troublesome to hunt humans.

This snow leopard didn't even need to kill them, it just needed a deep bite to knock them out instantly.

"Yeah." Zhao Xinqing nodded, while eating the fish, she looked at the branches she picked up earlier and asked:

"Are these materials enough?"

Su Bai shook his head:

"We still need a trunk, so we have to cut down big trees."

He turned his head and looked at the other side of the rock wall, pointed at a large tree more than ten meters high, and said:

"This one is good. We cut it whole, burn it in the middle until it becomes crispy, and then divide the thick part below into four sections to make the four trunks of our cabin."

"Just set it up to a height of two meters."

At this time, the sky was already bright, and there was a sea of ​​​​fire in the small woods ahead. The smoke was billowing and crackling, and it could not be burned out in a long time.

After Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing finished eating the fish, they immediately started cutting down the trees.

Without iron tools, the two could only use the most primitive method, smashing sharp stone flakes from quartz stone to make stone axes.

"There is also skill in cutting down trees."

Su Bai said to the live broadcast camera:

"We first peeled off the bark of the tree where the ax fell, and then cut a small gap on one side."

"Then go to the other side and chop down the tree until it can no longer support its own weight and will fall to the other side."

"You must be careful. If you don't pay attention, you may be killed by the tree you cut down."

For this tree, the two of them exchanged three stone axes before finally cutting down the tree and carrying it back to the rock wall together.

After cutting down the trees, it was already noon.

The two fish in the morning were digested under heavy physical labor. The two simply carried the fishing rods to the river and took a break while fishing.

Barrage:

【It’s time to fish again!】

[Look carefully, what are the symbols drawn on the soles of the feet of the rich second generation? 】
