Chapter 210:
In the blink of an eye, it is the end of summer, and the temperature outside is getting higher and higher, and it will take a while to feel the coolness of autumn.
Under such high temperature, Chen Xing's family huddled directly in the cave to rest every day, and only went out for activities and food in the early morning and evening when the temperature was slightly lower.
At this time, it happened to be evening again, and the sky was slowly darkening. The farmers packed their things and went home. Only a few small animals were still active nearby.
As Chen Xing and other cubs gradually grew up, the ferret mother no longer needed to hunt alone to feed such a family, but worked hard to hunt with the cubs, and could also guide them along the way.
Because the cubs are getting older, and there is a stoat mother who has super hunting ability watching, the cubs are not lazy, so their hunting skills and experience have also been acquired recently. a very significant improvement.
Today, even the weakest stoat cub was the last stoat cub to successfully capture its prey. Now the success rate of hunting has also been greatly improved. As long as you are diligent, even if you live alone, you should not be able to starve yourself.
One by one, the cubs have learned to hunt successfully and can support themselves. The task of the ferret mother has basically been completed.
At this time, while the cubs were looking at the mice in the field, the mother ferret was staring at a rabbit.
The rabbit is still very plump, and the body is a little scary for the stoat, but thinking of the separation tomorrow, the stoat mother has no intention of letting go of this big prey with a low probability of successful hunting.
Forget the mice, only this big rabbit can satisfy the food intake of such a family.
Taking advantage of the family's last night together, the ferret mother planned to have the family together for the last supper. After tomorrow, the family may never have such a chance.
With this goal in mind, the stoat mother ignored the mice and other small prey, and directly focused on a big rabbit, and it was bound to succeed.
Chen Xing, who originally planned to hunt mice in the field as usual, noticed the unusual movement of the stoat mother, and immediately gave up his hunting, and instead focused on the stoat mother and paid attention to the other party's hunting this time. The whole process of the rabbit.
Although mother ferrets occasionally try to hunt rabbits, Chen Xing can't get enough of such learning experience.
Compared to prey like mice, which makes me feel dirty when I think of it, Chen Xing still hopes that all his food in the future will be replaced by rabbits or something. Eat a bad stomach.
It's a pity that although Chen Xing prefers rabbits, it's a pity that rabbits are much harder to catch than mice.
Just the size of the rabbit is here. When Chen Xing was not an adult, he didn't need to think about it at all. Thinking about it was useless and would only hurt himself.
Now that I can gather more learning experience with the ferret mother, Chen Xing will not miss it.
Just like the first time, the ferret mother still chose to use "dance" to confuse the somewhat silly wild rabbit, and slowly approached the other party when the other party was distracted by the "dance".
It was not until the distance between the two sides was narrowed that the ferret mother suddenly stopped the "dance" that looked like a great dancer, and suddenly launched a violent attack on the rabbit.
Until then, the silly wild rabbit finally understood the mother ferret's plan, and chose to escape.
After that, you chased me to escape, one side was trying to escape, the other side was trying to get food, and neither of them would give up first.
As the battle between the ferret mother and the rabbit became more and more intense, not only Chen Xing, but also his other brothers and sisters stopped catching the mouse and began to calm down and watch the battle on the spot.
In the end, in the expectant eyes of several cubs, the experienced ferret mother once again won the adoration of the children.
The rabbit was completely put down by the mother ferret, and the mother ferret was unscathed.
Seeing this, Chen Xing immediately ran in the direction of the ferret mother and the rabbit, ready to help.
When the other brothers and sisters saw this, they also hurried to follow.
With the cooperation of the ferret family, the dead rabbit was easily hidden in a hidden place, and was eaten by their family on the spot.
Once again, I tasted the taste of rabbits. Chen Xing, who has no appetite because of eating mice, can be regarded as a feast for the eyes.
However, Chen Xing's brothers and sisters also have a lot of appetite, and all of them behave very brutally in front of food, so Chen Xing didn't grab the first place at all, and the meat in his stomach is similar to that of his brothers and sisters.
The one who ate the least was the ferret mother. After all, she gave the rabbit meat to the children this time. She didn't start eating the leftovers until the children had almost eaten.
Although the family's appetite is not small, but the rabbit is large, and this meal has not been completely eliminated.
Continue to hide the remaining rabbit meat in place, and the mother ferret and the children around her go back to the cave to stay.
Now that it is dark and the stomach is full, it is still the safest in the cave.
The family once again spent a beautiful and peaceful night.
Early the next morning, the mother ferret woke the sleeping children and took them out of the cave to the edge of the nearby farmland.
Next, the stoat mother did not let the children hunt as in the past, but looked at them with complex eyes.
Needless to say, Chen Xing and his brothers and sisters could see what she meant in the eyes of the ferret mother, and also understood what was special about today.
Counting that, Chen Xing and his siblings are more than three months old, and they have grown to be about the same size as the ferret mother since they were young.
No wonder the ferret mother suddenly fell in love with a rabbit on a risky hunt yesterday, co-authoring it for the family to have the last meal together!
Just as these thoughts flashed through Chen Xing's mind, one of the little ferrets moved.
Under the watchful eyes of the ferret mother and siblings, the little ferret who made the first move chose a direction, slowly jumped away, and occasionally looked back.
The ferret's movements have always been fast, so after a while, the figure of the little ferret disappeared into the farmland.
The ferret mother looked in that direction for a while, and then she withdrew her gaze and focused on the few children who had not left in front of her.
With the siblings of the first action, there will soon be a second, a third...
Although they were a little reluctant to give up, for the animals, this is a day that will come sooner or later, and everyone has nothing to hesitate and embark on their own journey.
Seeing that all the brothers and sisters were gone, only the ferret mother was left. Chen Xing, who was the last one, was also urged by the ferret mother with reluctance, and embarked on the road of his independence.
Chen Xing casually picked a direction where no siblings walked. Under the watchful eye of the ferret mother, the figure gradually became smaller, until it disappeared completely.
