Chapter 213 The Three Lion King Brothers
Chu Ye thought as he started to eat this big python. He has been hungry for several days, and now that he can eat this snake meat feast, it feels delicious.
But when Chu Ye was eating, Nika and the others also ran over. Because they are used to eating with Chu Ye. Now that I saw Chu Ye eating snake meat, I naturally wanted to come over and take a bite.
'Ouch! ——'
When Nika and the others first came to Chu Ye, Chu Ye yelled at Nika. He signaled it to leave here quickly and asked him to eat this big python first.
When Nika saw Chu Ye's angry look, of course she didn't dare to eat there again. The same goes for Feifei, Mira, and Lachi. When they saw Chuye teaching Nika a lesson, they stayed aside knowingly and did not dare to go over.
Originally, Feifei and the others had been following Nika, and Nika had a high status among these lionesses. Whenever they go out to hunt, Nika always walks in front, while Feifei and the others can only walk behind Nika.
When hunting outside, Nika has the final say in everything. Feifei, Mira and Laqi can only obey Nika's arrangements.
Even if they were to eat food now, Nika would have to eat it first, and they could only follow behind Nika.
But Nika's prestige is only useful among female lions, and of course it is of no use in front of Chu Ye.
Today Chu Ye defeated this big python alone. Nika and the others did not help at all. Everything was attributed to Chu Ye alone.
Therefore, Chu Ye must use his privilege as a lion king once. This time, he would not let Nika and the other lionesses eat with him. Instead, he would let Nika and the others eat after they were full.
Although Nika and the others were a little unhappy, facing such a powerful male lion like Chu Ye, the female lions had no right to bargain. They had to obey Chu Ye's arrangements.
In this way, after Chu Ye was full, he let Nika and the other lionesses eat.
This big python weighs hundreds of kilograms and can feed more than ten lions. For Nika and others, snake meat may not be their favorite delicacy, but in this dry season when food is scarce, it is not bad to be able to eat snake meat, which still qualifies them to be picky about their meals.
When all the lions had almost eaten, Chu Ye led everyone away from here.
It's just that everyone was active for a long time and ate a lot of food, so they all felt a little thirsty. Chu Ye was the same, feeling a little thirsty and wanted to drink some water.
So, Chu Ye did not take everyone back to the camp, but walked directly to the river not far away.
The temperature was very high. Chuye and the others opened their mouths and stuck out their tongues as they walked, adjusting the temperature inside their bodies. Soon, they came to the river.
By the river, there were several large crocodiles lying down basking in the sun.
As soon as Chu Ye and the others saw these big crocodiles, they stopped first. After all, these big crocodiles stay by the river, and it's not easy for them to drink water.
But Chu Ye didn't take these crocodiles seriously at all and walked over immediately.
When these crocodiles saw the lions in Chu Ye, they all fled into the water.
It seems that the last war between Chu Ye and these crocodiles was still in the memory of these crocodiles. When they saw Chu Ye, a very tall and strong male lion, they felt a little timid, so they hurriedly Escaped into the water.
Chu Ye came to drink water. Regarding these crocodiles, he pretended not to see them and just led the lionesses to the river to drink water.
Led by Chu Ye, the lionesses also came to the river. Although they were a little afraid of the crocodiles in the water, they knew that Chu Ye was very powerful. As long as Chu Ye was here, these crocodiles would not dare to attack them.
Chu Ye didn't pay attention to these crocodiles at all. He just led the lionesses to drink water by the river.
When the crocodiles saw Chu Ye, an extremely powerful lion, they were very scared and did not dare to provoke him. They all hid in the deep water in the middle of the river, not even daring to stay by the river.
The dry season continues, and the Grumedi River, the river of life in the Serengeti steppe, is still flowing.
The reason why it can keep flowing is that it can still provide clean water to the animals here during the dry season. Mainly because this large river originates from the melted ice and snow on Mount Kilimanjaro.
Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa, with an altitude of more than 6,000 meters. The snow on the top of the mountain never melts all year round. This big mountain can be said to be a very sacred mountain, very famous throughout Africa.
Especially for the Serengeti Prairie, this mountain is particularly important. Because the entire Serengeti prairie was formed due to the activities of this mountain. It is precisely because this mountain is a huge active volcano that erupted violently tens of millions of years ago.
At that time, a large amount of volcanic ash erupted from the volcanic eruption, and after falling to the ground, today's Serengeti Prairie was formed.
Mount Kilimanjaro has a profound impact on the ecology and climate of the entire Serengeti savannah.
The water of the Grumedi River in front of you mainly comes from the melted ice and snow of the tall and majestic Mount Kilimanjaro.
But even so, Chu Ye felt that as the dry season continued, the surface of this large river had begun to narrow.
He didn't know why, but every time Chu Ye came to the river to drink water, he felt that the river was shrinking. It seems that this river will one day completely dry up.
Chu Ye couldn't understand this phenomenon. Within the scope of his knowledge, this river that traverses the central part of the Serengeti prairie will not dry up and can continue to flow until the arrival of the rainy season.
But now it's a little strange. Chu Ye feels that he has been in this prairie for more than a year and has experienced a change between the dry season and the rainy season.
It is already November, almost December. It is said that at this time, the dry season is about to end, and it should start to rain.
But now the prairie is still in a scorching heat, and there is no sign of rain at all.
This large river is also constantly shrinking. The river surface that was originally fifty or sixty meters wide is now only about thirty meters wide, which is nearly half smaller than before.
Chu Ye saw that the river that animals relied on for survival was shrinking, and he had a bad feeling in his heart. I feel that this year’s Serengeti Prairie may be different from previous years, and there will be some extraordinary changes.
But no matter what, Chu Ye was powerless to change everything. No matter ordinary animals or intelligent humans, they are actually powerless against changes in nature.
After Chu Ye finished drinking the water, he stood by the river and looked at the river, which was no longer very wide. He could see some places on the other side of the river at a glance.
Chu Ye has always been a little curious about the situation on the other side of the river. After all, they, the lions, live together on the south bank of the river. They are completely unaware of the situation on the north bank of the river.
The original Grumedi River was fifty or sixty meters wide, and the deepest part of the river was seven or eight meters deep. It was considered a deep and wide river.
This large river divides the Serengeti prairie into northern and southern parts. The terrain in the south is relatively flat because it is closer to Mount Kilimanjaro and there is a lot of volcanic ash in the soil on the ground.
This kind of soil can only grow some grass, but cannot grow some tall trees. Therefore, the southern Serengeti is a standard savanna. The ground grows half a man deep with miscanthus and spiky grass.
The north bank of the river is a mountainous jungle zone with relatively undulating terrain. The soil on the ground contains less volcanic ash and can grow some taller trees.
As a result, the Grumedi River became a watershed in the entire Serengeti prairie, dividing the entire prairie into two completely different parts.
Chuye now rules almost the entire southern part of the Serengeti. Of course, Chu Ye has not yet gone to live in the southern plains of Serengeti. Because it is the dry season, they mainly live in the north. Only during the rainy season will they return to the southern plains to live.
Chu Ye didn't care what the situation was like in the southern plains. He had been paying attention to the situation on the other side of the river. He knew that one day he would cross this great river and then enter the northern realm, where he would conquer the Lion King and expand his territory.
It's just that Chu Ye still doesn't know what kind of lions live in the northern land, how many lions there will be living there, and whether there will be any tall and strong lions like Chu Ye among them.
Whenever Chu Ye came to this big river to drink water, he would deliberately look at the northern boundary, wanting to see if there were powerful male lions in the northern boundary, and if there were also lions like them. A mighty pride of lions.
It's just that Chu Ye has never seen any lions. Occasionally, he will see some stray lions coming to the river to drink water. Sometimes you will see some lionesses going to the river to hunt.
But he didn't see a lion as tall and strong as him, nor did he see a powerful pride of lions going to the river to drink water.
Chu Ye has always felt that although there are lions on the other side of the river, they must be relatively small. As long as he steps across this big river, he can easily defeat some weak lions on the other side of the river, and he can quickly defeat the lions on the other side of the river. Capture the territory across the river.
Chu Ye knew that if the dry season continued, the pride of lions would have to expand its territory to continue to survive. If I just keep guarding the original one-third of an acre of land, I'm afraid I'll be hungry again.
Because herbivores are constantly moving, although most herbivores do not migrate long distances on a large scale like wildebeests and zebras, they are constantly moving back and forth within a range of hundreds of kilometers. .
The main reason wildebeests and zebras travel long distances to migrate is because they are the two most abundant animals on the savannah. They need a lot of green grass. If they don't migrate long distances, they won't be able to spend the long dry season on the Serengeti prairie.
Other herbivores are much less numerous than wildebeest and zebra. Relatively speaking, they need much less grass.
Therefore, these herbivores will not migrate long distances, but will only migrate within the Serengeti Steppe.
Chu Ye also knows a lot about these things. Who told him to have a human soul? He has much more natural knowledge than the local animals living here.
'Roar! --Roar! --Roar! ——'
Just when Chu Ye was still thinking about some common sense about the prairie, he suddenly heard three roars of lions.
The sound came from the other side of the river, but Chu Ye only heard three powerful lion roars for the time being, and did not see any male lion running over.
But soon, Chu Ye's eyes widened in surprise. Not only Chu Ye was surprised, but also Feifei and Nika's eyes widened in surprise.
A large group of lions suddenly appeared on the other side of the river, led by three tall and strong male lions. Although the individual size will be smaller than Chu Ye's size. But the three male lions are all about the same size. It seems that they weigh at least 300 kilograms.
The manes on the necks of these three male lions have also turned black. It seems that they are all male lions in their prime, about eight years old.
Behind the three male lions, there are more than 20 adult female lions. These female lions are also extremely strong, and each of them looks very energetic.
They came rushing over from a distance. Obviously they wanted to drink water, but when they came to the river and saw a group of lions on the other side of the river, their three male lions naturally roared first.
Chu Ye didn't roar or run away. He just quietly looked at the huge pride of lions on the other side of the river, looking at the three lions as strong as cattle. He knew that these three male lions must be the lion kings of this pride, the three lion king brothers.
This was an accident. Chu Ye had never seen such a huge group of lions before, nor had he seen these three lion king brothers who were as strong as cattle.
The three male lions also saw Chu Ye on the other side of the river, and they immediately roared together.
Because Chu Ye's body shape is also a bit special, there is no such tall and ox-like lion in the entire prairie.
Facing the huge Chu Ye, the three male lions seemed a little uneasy. He kept yelling, expressing some of his fear towards Chu Ye.
Although the river is only more than thirty meters wide, the middle of the river mouth is still very deep, about four or five meters deep. Male lions are only suitable for activities on land. Under normal circumstances, they will not go into rivers.
The three male lions stood on the other side of the river and could see Chu Ye clearly. They kept walking around, looking at Chu Ye for a while, and roaring at Chu Ye for a while, obviously a little panicked.
Although Chu Ye was a little surprised, he didn't look as frightened as the three male lions, nor did he roar in protest at each other. He just stood quietly by the river and looked at the three strong lion brothers on the other side of the river. , and their more than twenty strong lionesses.
Chu Ye was very calm on the surface, but his heart was also turbulent. After all, the situation in the He confrontation seemed to have suddenly undergone some major changes.
Chu Ye had been observing the situation on the other side of the river before, but he had never seen this huge group of lions and the three lion king brothers who were as strong as cattle.
This group of lions with extraordinary strength seemed to have suddenly fallen from the sky. Everything made Chu Ye feel a little strange.
