For a moment, Nian Tu felt indescribably complicated.
He said he would abandon her and stay away from her, but in the end he stayed by her side...
Uncle Ferry, who has lost his memory, is still as tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
He knew clearly that getting sick would be contagious and even lead to death, but he was still willing to take the risk to keep her warm and lick her fur.
"Uncle Feli..." Nian Tu called softly.
"I'm here," the black-maned lion responded immediately.
He insisted on using his body to protect the little female from wind and rain, and stayed with her every step of the way.
"Where's Xion?" Nian Tu looked around but didn't see the golden lion. He didn't know where he had gone.
"He went to find some healing herbs for you," the black-maned lion licked her forehead soothingly, "eat those herbs and you will get better."
These words were meant to comfort Nian Tu as well as himself. In fact, he was also very scared, feeling empty and unsure in his heart.
Just imagining Nian Tu dying in front of him made him feel miserable. If Nian Tu could get better, he would be willing to take her place in the pain of being sick.
All around, various small animals were observing the situation and talking about it.
"She looks like she's dying..."
"Get away from her!"
"Really? Why are you still hugging her?"
On the savannah, the fittest survive. The mortality rate of lion cubs has always been high, and lionesses will even abandon weaker cubs.
A cub as weak and sick as this little lion would most likely be abandoned by its own mother.
The two lions were still unwilling to give up.
In the pitch-black night, the golden lion ran wildly in the rain without stopping, and returned exhausted with a bunch of wild grasses and flowers in its mouth.
Looking at those plants, Nian Tu was amazed.
I didn't expect that he could actually find herbs to cure her illness.
Even though he lost his memory, Sion is still a smart lion.
She struggled to get up, rubbed her little head against him gratefully, picked out some flowers and plants from a pile, and ate a few of the herbs that were more suitable for her symptoms.
As a carnivore, these flowers and plants tasted bad to Nian Tu, but she still closed her mouth and swallowed them, not wanting to disappoint Xion's good intentions.
She also wants to get better soon.
After thinking for a while, she stretched out her little paw and drew some simple pictures of other herbs on the ground. "Help me find these herbs tomorrow."
She had previously complained about the wasted preparations before the test, but now they came in handy. Fortunately, she had learned a lot of wilderness survival knowledge in advance and knew what life-saving herbs could be found in this tropical grassland.
While painting, Nian Tu explained to Xion in a soft voice, telling him the environment in which each herb might grow.
Sion kept nodding.
He couldn't wait and even wanted to go look for him immediately, but Nian Tu suppressed him and told him to go after daybreak.
The sky was turning pale and the rain was gradually stopping.
When Nian Tu opened her eyes, a pile of herbs was neatly placed in front of her.
"Awake?" Ferry hadn't slept all night and was watching over her nervously. He noticed she was awake the first time he saw her. "Do you want to eat some meat first? Or grass first?"
On the side, Sion, who had just returned from collecting herbs early in the morning, was taking a nap.
Although he was tired, he slept very lightly. When he heard the noise, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Niannian, I found all the grass you wanted!"
He ran back and forth several times and found everything he could, leaving nothing missing.
"But are you sure these will work?"
When working, Sion was full of enthusiasm, but once he took a break and regained his rationality, he realized that it was unreliable.
Neither he nor his brother had ever seen any sick animal eating the grass, so how would the little lioness know?
She is still so young and has no experience at all.
Xion was even worried whether these grasses were poisonous, so he caught a few rabbits to test them, and then secretly tested them himself without telling his brother. Only after confirming that they were non-toxic did he dare to put them in front of Nian Tu.
The few rabbits that had been brutally persecuted escaped and hid aside, muttering and cursing.
"Bah! Damn lion!"
"I've never eaten grass that tasted so bad!"
"How can this thing possibly cure an illness?!"
"Wait for death from illness!"
Even rabbits don't like to eat grass, but Nian Tu took the initiative to eat it bite by bite. Seeing her struggling to eat the grass, the two lions felt very distressed.
"I'm going hunting." Felix stood up, wanting to give Nian Tu something delicious to relieve the bitterness in his mouth. "What do you want to eat?"
"Wildebeest? Zebra? Antelope?"
Even if Nian Tu wanted to eat elephants or giraffes, he would try his best for her.
Nian Tu did not make any unreasonable demands. She did not want to burden her partners. "It's all right, zebra."
She thought hunting zebras should be a little easier.
Watching Feli's figure disappear, Sion sneaked over, took his place, and held Nian Tu in his arms.
The damn brother didn't allow him to get close to the little lioness, saying that he was afraid that he would get sick, but he hugged the little lioness for the whole night.
Nian Tu understood his thoughts from his indignant expression and smiled helplessly.
Uncle Ferry has always been like this. He loves her and values Sion, so he wants to take all the risks on himself.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine soon," she rested her head on Theon's paws and snuggled up to him affectionately.
It's just a common cold. Even without taking medicine, she can get through it. After taking the medicine, she will definitely recover faster.
Nian Tu closed his eyes and continued to rest.
Getting more sleep will help her recuperate.
But the animals watching clearly didn't think so.
When they saw Nian Tu wake up for a short while, eat the grass, and then fall asleep again, they all thought she was going to die and sighed.
"Nothing? How can it be okay?!"
"Poor little lion, he just had one good day..."
"That's good, at least I can walk with a full stomach."
"If she lives too long, the lion may not be willing to keep her. It is better for her to die now than to starve to death in the future."
"What's the point of eating those unpalatable grasses? It would be better to save some space for some meat..."
"That's right! Do you really expect those messy things to cure diseases?"
After waking up from a nap, Nian Tu clearly felt much more relaxed.
Before she opened her eyes, she could hear whispers in her ears, discussing whether she was about to die.
