Chapter 7

It's very common for prey to be robbed. When they work hard to track the prey, they find that the prey that has lost the ability to move has been divided by lions or hyenas. At this time, they can only return empty handed.

Seeing that the chief had reached the antelope, a figure suddenly jumped out of the grass next to him and threw the antelope to the ground.

Gao Yang fell in the back. He saw clearly that it was a leopard who threw down the antelope, but at this time, the chief and the leopard were almost face-to-face. No matter whether the chief wanted it or not, he formed a situation of grabbing food with the leopard.

Gao Yang soon understood why the leopard, which usually avoids humans, dared to confront the five of them, because the leopard was very old, and his hunting ability decreased a lot. Now he was very thin and hungry. The gazelle, which had lost its ability to move, had a fatal attraction to the old leopard. The hungry old leopard refused to give up the food to his mouth.

The distance was too close. The situation was very dangerous. The leopard opened its mouth and made a low roar. The chief stood less than two meters away from the leopard, opened his arms and slowly retreated, while the rest, including Gao Yang, were also slowly retreating.

It's very dangerous to grab food with a hungry leopard. Even if the leopard is old and weak, especially at this almost face-to-face distance, the explosive power of limb animals is beyond people's imagination. Even if there are five people, they can't annoy the leopard at this time. They can only retreat to a safe distance and go together to scare the leopard away safely.

Just as the chief retreated slowly, the leopard suddenly released the antelope under its claws and rushed towards the chief like a lightning bolt.

The chief just came and took back his open arms, protected his neck, and was knocked down by the leopard.

The huge leopard tilted its head, opened its mouth and took a bite at the chief's throat. It caught the chief and refused to let go. Fortunately, the chief protected his neck in time, so it didn't break his throat.

Seeing that the chief was thrown to the ground, he roared loudly. Holding the hunting knife in his hand, he rushed forward. The three people in front of him also stabbed out their spears. After the leopard was stabbed, he loosened the chief in his mouth and rushed forward again. After leaving five deep scratches on one's thigh, he finally turned and ran back.

Gao Yang was shocked and angry, and his heart was full of coolness. The leopard was one of the top hunters in Africa. The prey bitten by the leopard on his neck was almost impossible to live.

The chief covered his neck with one hand, and blood leaked out from his fingers. Several people were stunned. They just stood there shouting. Only Gao Yang was calm. He ran to the chief, stretched out his hand to break off the chief's hand covering his neck and took a look at the chief's injury.

The chief protected his throat in time. The leopard didn't bite through his throat, but the leopard's long canine teeth left two deep blood holes on the right back of the chief's neck, emitting blood. In addition, the leopard left a row of deep tooth marks on the chief's right arm.

Gao Yang took a breath of cold air and covered the wound on the chief's neck. For a moment, his mind was in a mess. He tried hard to think about how to save the chief's life, but the more he thought about it, the more flustered he was, because no matter from which point of view, the chief was dead.

Fortunately, the leopard didn't bite through the chief's throat or break the chief's main artery. As long as he can get the least surgical operation, the chief can stop the blood. But now, the chief can only die slowly because of excessive blood loss. Even if he is lucky, the blood will stop by himself, but the next wound infection will still make the chief die after a long period of pain.

As a carnivore, leopard carries too many bacteria and viruses in its mouth and claws. Whether it is bitten by teeth or scratched by cheetah claws, it doesn't matter the size of the wound. As long as there are no antibiotics, it is absolutely fatal.

After three years of living together day and night, Gao Yang's feelings for the chief are very deep. He was fine just now. In a flash, he can only watch the chief die. Although Gao Yang tried his best to bite his teeth, his tears still fell involuntarily.

The chief also knew that his life would not be too long. He pushed away Gao Yang's hand, slowly stood up, shook his head at Gao Yang, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't cry. I'm very old. Everyone of us will have this day. Big Baal, if you don't die, you'll be the chief. If you die, let little Baal be the chief. Well, don't cry. We'll deal with the antelope, eat here, and then take the meat home."

"Dad, you won't die. You won't die. Wow."

It was Cousteau, the youngest, who was only about 14 or 15 years old. He was not as open as his brothers about life and death. After saying that, he finally began to cry,

After hearing the chief's words, Gao Yang remembered that big Bali, the chief's eldest son, was also scratched by the leopard, which also means that big Bali is likely to be infected and die.

"No, it shouldn't be like this. There must be a way. There must be a way to save you. Let me think about it. Don't talk. Let me think about it."

The chief lost some blood. With a sad face, he staggered and sat down again.

"White boy, there's no way. No one can escape the death brought by the leopard."

Gao Yang couldn't think of it. He could only watch the chief die, which made him very upset. After breathing heavily and turning around in place for a few times, Gao Yang finally couldn't stand it anymore. He roared and ran away in the direction of the disappearance of the leopard.

Gao Yang knows that catching up with the leopard won't help, but he still wants to find the damn leopard, kill it and avenge the chief. Only in this way can he feel a little better.

The leopard was stabbed several times, and the low blood droplets of the wound provided him with a very clear road sign.

Not long after running out, that is, three or five minutes later, Gao Yang, who had been running with his head down, suddenly stopped. He stared at the traces that should not have appeared on the grass, but suddenly appeared, and his brain was blank.

The traces on the grass are rut marks, or tire marks. Obviously, they are not left by one car, but a team of at least four or five cars. This long lost trace makes Gao Yang dare not believe his eyes for a moment.

"White boy, stop. We can't go now. We have to take care of dad and bus."

The shouts and footsteps behind him made Gao Yang wake up from his short absence. He was like an electric current. After shivering uncontrollably, Gao Yang suddenly turned back and shouted to Xiao Baal and Cousteau who followed him: "go back, go back quickly."

After roaring, Gao Yang didn't have time to explain to the confused little Baal and Cousteau. He turned and ran back to the chief at a faster speed.

"Chief, don't leave here. You wait for me here. You and big Bali are saved. I found..."

When Gao Yang excitedly wanted to tell the chief that he was saved, he didn't know what he found, because there was no word tire print in the language of akuri tribe.

"I found a trace. I can find white people, white people like me. They have, uh, strange herbs. They can save you and big Bali. Don't leave here. Wait for me. I'll find those white people."

At this time, little Baal and Cousteau also understood what had happened and learned that the chief and big Baal were saved. Of course, everyone was only excited.

"Cousteau, you stay and help dad and Barry. The white children and I go to find the white people."

"No, you don't run as fast as me. My name is cheetah. I'll go with the white child. You stay to protect the injured father and big Bali. You're stronger than me."

"Shut up, you two. I'll go by myself. Listen. If you hear the gunshot, run quickly. Do you know what the gunshot is? Chief, you've heard the gunshot, haven't you? If you hear it, leave here. Don't wait for me to come back. If you don't hear the gunshot, wait for me here, but you should be careful. Do you understand?"

The chief shook his head, reached out and grabbed the excited Gao Yang, "don't go. You don't know who those people are. They are very evil and you will die."

Gao Yang put aside the chief's hand, smiled and said, "if I don't come back at this time tomorrow, you can go back by yourself. Don't worry, chief. You know I'm the same person as them. I'll be fine."

The chief was moved. After a little hesitation, he finally nodded.

"I forgot that you are also a strange white man. Well, go and let Cousteau go with you. You must be careful."

At this time, Cousteau shouted excitedly, "white boy, I'll go with you. If there's anything, I can help you."

Gao Yang thought about it and thought he would take Cousteau with him, so that if anything happened, there would be a personal message, so Gao Yang didn't hesitate to run along the tire mark with Cousteau.

It's easy to tell the direction of the car from the rut marks on the grass, and Gao Yang can also see that the rut marks haven't been left for long. If you're lucky enough, you may find the team soon.

Although he was worried, Gao Yang just trotted along the ruts and didn't dare to make too much effort. He must control the rhythm to avoid being unable to stick to it. You know, he has run dozens of kilometers today and didn't eat anything.

Cousteau's speed is much faster than Gao Yang's, so that Gao Yang has to call Cousteau back often to avoid the distance between the two people being too far apart. In the language of akuri tribe, Baal means lion, while Cousteau means cheetah. People are like their names. Although Cousteau is the youngest, he runs the fastest.
