Chapter 145 Chu Ye defeated a hippopotamus
This hippopotamus walked towards this small puddle from the river. It seemed to be taking a bath in the sewage. Because sometimes hippos are like wild boars and like to get themselves covered in mud.
There's a reason why hippos like to do this. Because of the savanna climate in the African savanna, the temperature here is relatively high all year round.
Although hippos spend most of their time in water, when they are looking for food, they usually go to land to find something to eat.
But when they are exposed to the sun for a long time, their skin may be sunburned. Therefore, when these hippos want to look for food on land, they usually put a layer of mud on their skin first.
This way, they don’t have to worry about their skin getting sunburned. With the protection of this thick layer of silt, they can graze on land with peace of mind.
But when this hippo ran near the water hole, he saw an impala drinking water there.
I don’t know if it’s because this impala makes this hippo look displeased, or because this hippopotamus wants to eat some meat.
Anyway, when the hippo saw the impala, it suddenly attacked the impala.
This impala originally saw a hippopotamus running towards it. But it didn't run away quickly.
Maybe it's because this impala feels that hippopotamus are vegetarians. Hippos will not attack impalas.
Even Chu Ye felt that the hippo was unlikely to attack the impala. Even if the hippo ran towards the impala, it would only drive the impala away. I won't attack this impala.
But the development of things was somewhat beyond the expectations of Chu Ye and this impala. When the hippopotamus ran in front of Chu Ye, it bit the impala in the neck.
This is a result that neither Chu Ye nor Impala expected. Because hippos are vegetarian, everyone knows this.
But this hippopotamus was a little abnormal. It actually bit the impala directly in the neck.
Now this impala probably has some regrets, after all, it has a chance to escape. If the impala ran away as soon as it saw the hippo, it would be impossible for the hippo to catch up with it.
But it was too late to say anything now. This impala lost his life due to his carelessness.
Hippos are huge and very powerful. This impala is simply vulnerable to the huge hippopotamus.
After the hippopotamus bit the impala's neck, it threw the impala into the puddle.
This impala did not die after the hippo threw it into the puddle. Instead, he struggled in the puddle.
Unfortunately, there is very little water in this puddle, and there is deep mud underneath. This time it was troublesome. The impala just struggled and fell into the mud again.
And this hippopotamus did not let go of the impala. It jumped into the puddle again, and then bit the impala again, shaking its big head back and forth. It was obviously This impala is going to be killed.
Seeing the violent appearance of this hippopotamus, Chu Ye was also very surprised. He didn't understand how this hippopotamus could get into trouble with an impala for no reason.
This impala was like an eagle catching a chicken when attacked by a powerful hippopotamus. It had no power to fight back.
Soon, the impala was killed by the hippopotamus. It lay motionless in the water, apparently lifeless.
Chu Ye also thought that this hippo might not want to be vegetarian today and wanted to eat meat. It wants to taste what this impala tastes like.
But what Chu Ye didn't expect was that after the hippo killed the impala, it didn't come to devour the impala, but started taking a bath in the water.
Seeing such a scene, Chu Ye was a little confused. He didn't understand what happened to this hippopotamus, how he could kill this impala without devouring it for no reason.
This impala was also unlucky enough. It did not die in the mouth of a crocodile, but actually died in the mouth of a hippopotamus.
In fact, this hippopotamus didn't want to kill this impala because it wanted to eat meat. It was just because it was defeated by another male hippopotamus in the contest with one male hippopotamus just now.
This male hippopotamus came to land after escaping from the river. When it saw a small puddle here, it wanted to go to the small puddle to take a bath and apply a layer of mud on itself.
Hippos will have some scars on their bodies after fighting with their opponents. If you cannot protect it well, you may get infected and it will not be easy to recover.
Therefore, after a hippopotamus is injured, it will go to some puddles to wipe some mud. In this way, its wound can be protected.
Because there are some small birds that like to sit on the backs of hippos, and they just like to peck at the wounds on the hippos. If the hippopotamus cannot protect its wounds, the birds will eat the wounds even larger, making the hippopotamus' wounds unable to heal for a long time.
This hippopotamus originally wanted to go to this puddle to wipe some mud. But when it saw this impala, it suddenly became very angry. It wanted to take out its anger on this impala.
Because this hippo had just been defeated by its opponent, it also had a lot of anger and no place to vent its anger. And this impala became the tool for this hippo to vent its anger.
When Chu Ye saw that the hippo had killed the impala, but it did not eat the impala, Chu Ye felt a little angry. I thought this hippopotamus was too much. It was not a carnivorous animal at all, but to kill a herbivore for no reason was really a step too far. It was a completely violent and capricious expression.
'Huh, this hippopotamus is too domineering. It killed an impala for no reason. Today I am going to teach this hippo a lesson and let it know that it cannot kill other animals for no reason. Why kill a herbivore if you don't eat meat! '
When Chu Ye thought of this, he got out of the bushes nearby, and then ran directly to the small puddle.
This hippopotamus is taking a sewage bath in a puddle and smearing some mud on itself. It didn't expect that a lion would be staring at it, and it couldn't stand what it had just done.
'Ouch! ——'
Chu Ye ran to the puddle and yelled at the hippopotamus who was still bathing inside.
This hippopotamus was taking a bath. It never occurred to him that a lion would come to cause trouble.
However, when this hippopotamus saw only one lion roaring at him, he did not take this lion seriously.
Originally, hippopotamuses were so huge that they never took lions seriously. Unless a group of lions attack a hippopotamus, this hippopotamus will be more scared.
Now when this hippopotamus saw that there was only one male lion roaring at him, he didn't take Chu Ye seriously at all. It just continued to bathe in the puddle, not paying attention to Chu Ye at all.
Chu Ye saw that the hippopotamus did not come to the shore, so he had no choice. Because Chu Ye knew that he could not defeat the hippopotamus in the water. If he wanted to teach the hippopotamus a lesson, he would have to lead the hippopotamus to the shore.
But this hippopotamus didn't care about Chu Ye's roar and continued to bathe in the puddle, not paying attention to Chu Ye at all.
'Okay, if you don't take me seriously, then I'll grab this impala first. '
Chu Ye thought of this and slowly came to the puddle. This impala was dead and its body was lying next to the puddle.
Chu Ye only had to walk a few steps into the puddle to catch this impala. This impala will also become Chu Ye's prey.
But as soon as Chu Ye bit the impala, the hippopotamus hurriedly walked towards Chu Ye. It was obviously unwilling that Chu Ye would snatch the impala away.
It's just that Chu Ye is faster. When the hippopotamus just ran to the puddle, Chu Ye had already dragged the impala to the shore.
Originally, Chu Ye thought that as long as he dragged the impala to the shore, the hippo would give up on the impala.
But what Chu Ye didn't expect was that after he dragged the impala to the shore, the hippo actually chased it to the shore again.
This hippo obviously didn't want Chu Ye to snatch the impala away. Although it didn't eat the impala, he still wouldn't let Chu Ye eat the impala.
'Okay, if you dare to come to the shore, I will teach you a lesson. '
This is what Chu Ye wants. He just wants to lead this hippopotamus to the shore. He knew that as long as this hippopotamus reached the shore, he could teach this hippopotamus a lesson.
This hippo didn't take Chu Ye seriously at all. It immediately came over to compete with Chu Ye for the impala.
Chu Ye was very angry when he saw that this hippopotamus dared to come to the shore. He immediately started to compete with this hippopotamus.
This hippopotamus feels that it is huge and can definitely defeat this male lion. After all, an adult hippopotamus weighs a ton or two. The weight of an adult male lion is only more than 200 kilograms.
In terms of weight, Hippopotamus weighs much more than Chu Ye. Naturally, it didn't take Chu Ye seriously.
Chu Ye first kept the impala aside, and then started fighting with the hippopotamus. Chu Ye knew that only by defeating this hippopotamus could he obtain this impala.
This hippopotamus didn't take Chu Ye seriously at all. It opened its mouth and tried to bite Chu Ye's neck. But how could Chu Ye let the hippopotamus bite his neck.
Chu Ye knew that if the hippopotamus bit his neck, he would be in trouble. Because the hippo's mouth is so big, it can bite the lion's neck off in one go.
Therefore, when Chu Ye saw this hippopotamus attacking him, he could only dodge first. Only by avoiding the edge first can we find an opportunity to counterattack.
Chu Ye is very flexible on land. Relatively speaking, because the hippopotamus is very fat and large, its movements on land are relatively slow.
Chu Ye took advantage of the hippopotamus' slow movements on land, so he started jumping up and down and running around the hippopotamus.
This hippopotamus wanted to attack Chu Ye, but its size was very large and its movements were relatively slow. It was almost impossible for it to bite Chu Ye.
But while Chu Ye was avoiding it, he could find opportunities to sneak attack on this hippopotamus. It can stretch out its sharp claws and keep sneaking up on the hippo's back.
This hippo's back was already injured, and now that it was constantly being attacked by Chu Ye, the wounds on its back were increasing.
Chu Ye's claws were also extremely sharp. It could scratch several bloody wounds on the back of this hippopotamus in one go.
Since then, this hippo was a little scared. Although it tried hard to bite Chu Ye, it spent a long time and failed to bite Chu Ye. And Chu Ye had already found an opportunity to leave many traces of wounds on the back of this hippopotamus.
This hippopotamus saw that it couldn't take any advantage at all, and the wounds on its body were getting more and more. It felt that if it continued like this, not only would it not be able to defeat Chu Ye, but it might also be killed by Chu Ye.
When the hippopotamus saw that Chu Ye was very powerful, it was no match for Chu Ye. Therefore, it can only give up the prey in front of it. Although this impala was the prey of this hippopotamus, it could only be given to Chu Ye now.
This hippo saw that it could not defeat Chu Ye, so it had no choice but to turn around and run into the puddle again. It knew that as long as it ran into the puddle, Chu Ye would have nothing to do with it.
Chu Ye saw that this hippopotamus ran into the puddle, so he had to give up attacking this hippopotamus. After all, Chu Ye also knew that he could only be king and hegemon on land, but could not be king and hegemon in the water.
After Chu Ye saw the hippo escape, he stopped pursuing it. He just turned back and started eating.
Chu Ye had just been fighting this hippopotamus for a long time, and he was already feeling a little hungry. He hadn't eaten any food since morning.
Although this impala is not very big, it can still help Chu Ye solve his hunger problem. So Chu Ye began to eat the meat of this impala.
But after this hippo ran into the puddle, it turned back and looked at Chu Ye blankly. It seemed to be thinking, 'What's wrong with this male lion? How can it be so powerful? How can it defeat an adult hippopotamus like me?' '
Chu Ye didn't pay attention to the hippopotamus anymore. It just lay down on the grass on the bank and began to slowly taste the taste of the impala.
