red ribbon lion king

Chapter 6 Goodbye Red Ribbon (1)
The wasp-waisted lioness roams the narrow fringes of the Rollian steppes and the Bartian desert.

It is a lioness. According to the social structure of lions, it is a popular role. No matter which lion group it goes to, it will be unconditionally accepted by the powerful lion.In fact, when the two head lions of the Kaza lion group in the south and the Changmu lion group in the north met it, they warmly invited it to join the group.

Roaming male lions are unwanted "people" who are driven out wherever they go, but lion prides open their doors to stray females, and for those dominant males, accept a young, beautiful female Lion, not only will not pose any threat to its throne, but also has an extra labor force for predation, and an extra reproductive machine, why not do it?
But the wasp-waisted lioness did not hesitate to decline the invitations of the Kaza lion group and the Changmu lion group. It knows that changing the lion group, changing the soup without changing the medicine, is still under the parasitic rule of the male, and it still has to work hard. After working hard for food, the lions still have to eat the food they hunt first; if they give birth to cubs, and if they unfortunately encounter a change of dynasty, the cubs will be slaughtered by "humans" again. .It has already jumped out of the fire pit, so it will not jump into another fire pit foolishly.It would rather wander, would rather wander around, would rather live a life of loneliness and poverty, and would not experience the disaster of being slaughtered innocently again in this life.

Although the wasp-waisted lioness is alone, she is in her golden age, vigorous and has rich hunting experience. She was the main player on the hunting ground when she was in the Patilu lion group, so she is not worried about not being able to get something to eat.It’s just that sometimes during meals, the nasty hyenas smell blood and come to make trouble, and groups of vultures see dead animals and fly to grab food. It is difficult for them to keep food and drive hyenas and vultures away. Half was eaten and the other half was snatched away.

For a lioness, life without a male is always inconvenient.

That morning, it used the method of ambush to catch a fat wild boar cub, and was eating deliciously, suddenly, a male lion emerged from the bushes, with a lot of sap and grass juice on its back and legs. Dirty, slovenly; there are several scratches on the back of the head, the wounds have not healed, and the dark purple blood scabs are conspicuous; the forehead lacks light, and the lips are dark; although the eyes are wide open , but lacks a sharp beam of light, one can tell that there is not much self-confidence at first glance; although the body is tall, the ribs are so thin that the ribs protrude;The beggar crawled to a place about 30 meters away from it, lying on the gravel, greedily watching it bite the wild boar cub, his Adam's apple kept moving, and was stimulated to secrete saliva violently, swallowing it in one gulp.

With this appearance, it is obvious that it wants to eat some scraps and leftovers to satisfy its hunger after it is full.

The wasp-waisted lioness tore off one of the wild boar cub's paw while biting the meat.The boar's paw fell into a pool of fresh elephant dung five or six meters away.No matter how good the meat is, it can't be eaten if it is stained with feces, let alone the paws that are tasteless and reluctant to be discarded.The wasp-waisted lioness just glanced at the tearing paw, but ignored it.The sloppy beggar lion's eyes lit up, and while it was aiming at it timidly, it crawled tentatively towards the soaking pot-shaped elephant dung. Seeing that it had no intention of interfering, it stretched out its front paw like a thief. , Quickly dug out the small piece of pig's paw from the thin pile of elephant dung, regardless of the smell, and chewed it in his mouth.

Here's a wretch, a wimp, a loser in the struggle for existence, a wretch at the end of the road, thought the wasp-backed lioness.However, it's interesting, unlike some rogue male lions who are impoverished and put on a masculine airs to bully female lions and come to snatch food unreasonably.

Perhaps, this guy who has been reduced to a beggar is already so hungry that he doesn't even have the strength to grab food?

This guy is not old, maybe twelve or thirteen years old at most, his limbs are healthy, and his appearance is not bad. Although he has many scars on his body, he doesn't see any disabilities. How could he be reduced to the point of being a beggar?

The wasp-waisted lioness glanced at the male lion again curiously, hey, where did I see it?Look, the color of the mane is different, bright red. Although the mane is covered with a thick layer of sand at the moment, it still cannot conceal the lively and dancing colors like flames.Hey, isn't this the wandering lion named Red Ribbon who has been haunting the fringes between the Lolian Prairie and the Batia Desert for several years, secretly coveting the throne of the Patilu Lion Pride?Once upon a time, it also ate the capybaras it dropped, and had an encounter with a very regrettable ending.Unexpectedly, in just half a year, a majestic and ambitious male lion would be so destitute, begging for food from the female lion, and living on leftovers like a dirty hyena.

Fate is fickle and indeed elusive.

But one thing, the wasp-waisted lioness realized that the disaster of the red streamer must have something to do with the giant yellow mane and the braided lion successfully capturing the Patilu lion group by relying on their superiority in numbers.Years of premeditation, years of hard work, years of waiting, and years of hope, once they come to naught, the pain they will endure is conceivable.

Alas, if you had accepted my invitation to eat that capybara with me on that wonderful morning, maybe you would be the head lion of Patilu lions now.

Thinking of this, for some reason, the wasp-waisted lioness suddenly felt a sense of sympathy and unreasonable tenderness.

As imagined by the wasp-waisted lioness, since the giant yellow mane and the braided lion took away the Patilu lion group that should belong to it, the spirit of the red streamer was on the verge of collapse.It feels that this life is over, and there will be no day to stand up.The emotion of failure is as thick as a fog that cannot be dispelled, and it is heavy in my heart.I've been in a trance all day long, can't get up to do anything, and have been desperate to the point of giving up on myself.

Red Ribbon has no territory to live in, wandering around, and making a living is not easy. In the past, relying on the belief that life will be better in the future, she has a spiritual sustenance in the face of hardships, and she can grit her teeth no matter how hard it is.Today, with collapsed beliefs, desolate spirits, and shattered hopes, life is getting worse and worse.Either they strayed into the sphere of influence of this group of lions by mistake and were chased, or they recklessly walked into the territory of that group of lions and were persecuted, hiding in Tibet, in constant fear.Its self-confidence is destroyed, it has no pursuit, and muddle along.

The male lion's lazy nature ferments like a germ, and he is lethargic all day long, or in a daze.Really, if you can't see hope in life, then live in a daze.

As soon as the spirit breaks down, the body also breaks down, and the hunting skills of the red streamer plummet. Sometimes it can't catch prey for several days, and can only eat rotting animal carcasses to satisfy hunger.This makes it harder to catch food, creating a vicious cycle.Red Ribbon has long since lost her masculine self-esteem, so as long as she can get something to eat, she will not hesitate to beg.

Once life goes downhill, it will go faster and faster, and there is no way to stop.

What's worse is that a few days ago, I don't know if it was too hot, I got heatstroke, or I got acute gastroenteritis from eating rotten food. The red ribbon had severe abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea, and I was seriously ill. I almost died in Diwozi. inside.Although his condition has improved in the past two days, he is still dizzy and weak in limbs.

Looking at the turbid yellow elephant dung foam on the corner of the mouth when the red streamer was chewing the wild boar's paw, the wasp-waisted lioness felt nauseated for a while, and at the same time, a heart of compassion sprouted.It had once eaten capybara caught by a red streamer, and it hadn't been a friendly treat, but it had eaten its stuff anyway.Perhaps, it should repay this kindness and give some wild boar meat to the red streamer.

Just when the wasp-waisted lioness was hesitating, the red streamer ate the small piece of wild boar's paw.

I don't know if it's because there is a little food at the bottom, and the weak body has some strength, and I feel that I have the strength to fight for the food, or because the wasp-waisted lioness has a peaceful attitude, which has fueled her ambition to monopolize the food.The red streamer shook his head, and the expression of the poor beggar suddenly changed. The red mane opened freely, and his eyes became greedy and fierce, staring blankly at the wild boar cub in the mouth of the wasp-waisted lioness. The flies saw the blood.The wasp-waisted lioness's heart tightened, this tuberculosis womb wanted to act rough!
Sure enough, the red streamer stood up slowly, with a threatening grunt deep in her throat.

Males are not good things, they take advantage of every inch, and they are rampant when they are successful.The wasp-waisted lioness took the boar cub into her arms, then stared back at the red streamer uncompromisingly.

In the animal kingdom, gaze is a very important body language.For any kind of animal, the eyes and the soul are connected. When the soul has bad intentions, the eyes will stare directly at the other party.Staring for a long time is not only a silent intimidation, but also a show of self-power, as if to say, I am about to use force, if you are sensible, hurry up and slip away!If the person being stared at is guilty and timid, if he knows that he is invincible, after a brief collision and confrontation of eyes, he will immediately avoid his own eyes, and then his body will follow suit.But if you are not afraid of the opponent, you will adopt the method of anti-gazing, that is, use a brighter beam of light and sharper eyes to stare at the opponent in reverse to suppress the opponent's arrogance.

The wasp-waisted lioness uses the reverse gaze.

Staring and anti-gazing are actually a kind of battle of eyes, testing each other's strength and comparing each other's courage.

The wasp-waisted lioness found that under her reverse gaze, the eyes of the red streamer were submissively retreating, and finally her eyelids twitched, and she looked away.Originally, a poor and sick lion must have a weak will.Go away, don't affect my appetite, the wasp-waisted lioness roared angrily.
