The stall owner saw them staying in front of the stall for a long time and thought they must be potential target customers, so he naturally didn't want to let go of this opportunity easily.

When Zhou Yue heard what the stall owner said, she paused, turned around and asked curiously.

"Uncle, do you have any other caracals here? Are there any alive ones?"

She didn't want to buy it to eat, but wanted to see the live caracal and satisfy her visual taste.

The stall owner scratched his head, a look of embarrassment on his face.

"This caracal is very ferocious. It's not easy to catch one alive! The ones I have here are all dead."

Zhou Yue felt a little disappointed when she heard this, thinking that there was nothing good about dying, so she turned around again and prepared to leave.

"Oh, that's right!"

The stall owner seemed to suddenly remember something and spoke again hurriedly.

"I have two live caracals here, but they are a little smaller! Let me show them to you!"

As he said this, he turned around, bent down, and began to search through a pile of bamboo cages.

After a while, he found out a bamboo cage and handed it directly to Zhou Yue.

"Girl, look, there are two living caracals in this cage. Although they are a little small, they are so tender. If you take them home and make soup with them, they will taste great!"

As the stall owner spoke, he smacked his lips, as if he had already tasted the delicious flavor of the soup.

Zhou Yue hurriedly took the bamboo cage, moved closer to it, and looked inside through the small gap.

After seeing the scene inside, I couldn't help but gasp.

There were four caracals crammed into this small cage.

Two of them were already motionless, their bodies lying limply there, and only two were still breathing, huddled in a corner.

Their round heads and furry bodies make them look like two exquisite little ornaments.

But these two little guys are so small, only about the size of Zhou Yue’s palm.

The two together probably weigh less than one kilogram.

Looking at the appearance, it is estimated that it is not even a full month old. It makes people feel so distressed just looking at it.

Sister Chunyan also came over at this time. After seeing the situation of the caracal in the cage, her brows instantly wrinkled into a "川" shape and her face became serious.

She raised her hand and pointed at the cage, then looked at the stall owner and spoke with a hint of anger and dissatisfaction in her tone.

"Uncle, you caught these two caracals when they were so small? There's not much meat on them. You're committing a sin!"

After hearing what Sister Chunyan said, the stall owner showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. He scratched his head and muttered.

"Hey girl, we mountain people live off the mountains, so we don't care about the size. It's luck that we can catch it. We can just exchange it for some money!"

Sister Chunyan was still angry after hearing what the stall owner said.

She glared at the stall owner and couldn't help but raise her voice.

"These two caracals are only the size of a palm, and there is not much meat in them. How much can they be sold for? It is too cruel of you to catch them!"

Whether it is fishing at the seaside or hunting in the mountains, there is actually an unwritten rule.

That is to focus on the big and let go of the small, which is also more conducive to long-term development.

The stall owner was getting a little impatient with what Sister Chunyan said. He frowned and his expression turned unsightly.

He pointed his finger at the dead caracal on the stall and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Girl, what do you know? The mothers of these little caracals are dead, so they will definitely not survive! If they are brought to my stall, at least people can still have some meat to eat. If they are thrown on the mountain, they will die anyway, which is a waste!"

Zhou Yue listened to what the stall owner said and felt that he had some truth in his words.

But looking at the two pitiful little caracals in the cage, I still felt very sorry.

Indeed, a caracal like this one, which has not yet been weaned and is so small, has almost no chance of survival in the dangerous forest without the care of its mother.

Seeing Zhou Yue and Sister Chunyan standing there without saying anything, the stall owner thought they didn't want to buy anymore, so he reached out to take the cage containing the caracal.

He said unhappily while stretching out his hand.

"If you don't want to buy anything, please don't bother me doing business. I'm hoping to sell more things today!"

Zhou Yue hurriedly hugged the cage tightly, took a step back, and said anxiously.

"Uncle, we didn't say we don't want to buy it, so don't grab it!"

Zhou Xing came closer and stared at the two little caracals in the cage without blinking, his face full of pity.

He looked at the two furry little balls and felt they were cute but also worried.

Zhou Xing sighed softly, raised his head and looked at his sister Zhou Yue, and said with a worried look on his face.

"Sister, if we buy it back, can we keep this little caracal alive?"

He knew that unweaned animals like this were the most difficult to raise.

They can only drink milk now and can't eat anything else. If there is no milk, they will starve to death.

After hearing what her brother said, Zhou Yue held the bamboo cage tighter.

She nodded repeatedly, her tone very firm.

"Yes! It certainly can!"

She thought to herself that there were plenty of milk powder and nutritional supplements in her system mall!

As long as you take good care of them, it won't be difficult to raise these two little guys.

But I can’t tell this to Sister Chunyan and the others directly. After all, this system is too bizarre, so I can only do it secretly.

Sister Chunyan was listening to the conversation between the siblings and she also laughed with a bit of optimism on her face.

"I think they can! Uncle Dong's doe gave birth to a calf before, so she should still have some milk. Maybe I can really feed these two little guys with that milk!"

Zhou Yue nodded, "Yes! No matter what, let's give it a try!"

Sister Chunyan looked at the stall owner and asked about the price.

"We want these two little manuls. How much do you want?"

The stall owner had just been scolded by Sister Chunyan and felt a little embarrassed. At this moment, he just wanted to sell the goods quickly and let them leave quickly.

"I don't want much, just two cents for these two caracals!"

"Okay, we'll take it then."

Zhou Yue didn't hesitate at all and quickly took out the money from his pocket and handed it to the stall owner.

After buying the two little caracals, Zhou Yue looked around the bustling market.

There were still many stalls they hadn't visited and many new things they hadn't seen, but at this moment, the three of them were focused on these two little guys and had no interest in visiting any further.

This little caracal is so small. It curled up in the cage, looking listless and it seems that it hasn’t eaten for a day or two.

"Let's go back quickly. We have to feed them. I don't know if we can save them."

Sister Chunyan held the cage in her arms and walked lightly, trying to keep her steps steady so as not to shake them.

"Let's go and see how Uncle Dong is doing. If it doesn't work, we'll go back first."

After Zhou Yue finished speaking, the three of them hurried towards Uncle Dong's stall.

Zhou Yue and his group hurriedly walked around the crowd and returned to Uncle Dong's stall. The scene in front of them surprised everyone.

Zhou Xing took a step forward, staring at the little amount of wild boar meat left on the stall, and asked.

"Uncle Dong, is this wild boar meat selling so fast?"
