Pet King

Chapter 1550: Chapter 1550-buried

Along the way, the backpack, which had been lightened several times but was still very heavy, pressed Zhang Zian down like a snail. He walked quickly and slowly, but he really could not run. He could only watch as the elves swarmed in front of him. What was even more infuriating was that Richard kept shouting “let’s go!” Above his head ...

Seeing that the elves seemed to have found something in front of him, he didn’t have the time to deal with this B * tch bird. He stepped on the fallen leaves and walked for more than ten minutes.

“What’s wrong?”

He didn’t walk to the front, but leaned against the nearest tree and used his backpack to push against the tree. He used the friction to let his legs rest. This was a little trick he had learned along the way. He couldn’t take off his backpack whenever he encountered any trouble. Once he took it off, he wouldn’t want to walk anymore.

The Elfins silently separated to the left and right, allowing him to see a small animal lying on its side in the thorns in front of him.

It was a silly cat.

After seeing it clearly, he immediately reminded,””Don’t get too close, you might get an infectious disease. ”

“It’s not an infectious disease. He was bitten to death. ” Fina said without any expression.

Zhang Zian sighed helplessly. It seemed that he could only put down his backpack and walk over to take a closer look. He couldn’t even squat with the backpack on his back. He would fall backward.

He moved his shoulder and his backpack slid down the tree trunk, leaning against it. The spotted owl silently flew to a nearby branch to rest, while Richard flapped his wings and stood on his shoulder.

The Elfins had also considered the problem of infectious diseases, so they didn’t get too close to the dead cat. After all, he had said that the prion could be infected even if they stepped on the urine of infected animals, although they didn’t smell the urine, only the smell of blood.

He moved his sore shoulders a few times, bent down to pick up a branch, walked to the dead cat, and used the branch to push away the grass that was half-covering the body.

The grass was stained with dried blood, but there were only a few drops.

It was an adult male cat with a large body and long fur. Its chest and abdomen were white, and the rest of its body was flaxen with brown and black stripes. It was probably a mixed breed of Maine Coon.

Even a person who didn’t understand cats would know that this was not a short-tailed cat from the forest after seeing its long tail.

There was a wound on its shoulder, which was its fatal wound. If it went any higher, it would have hurt the carotid artery. If that were the case, it would not have dragged its injured body all the way here before it died.

The blood from the wound had soaked its long fur into a ball, and the shape of the wound could not be seen clearly.

Zhang Zian used a branch to smooth the fur near its wound, revealing a pair of wounds that were obviously bitten by the fangs of some kind of beast. The inside of the wound was conical and very deep.

He used a branch to tilt the body at an angle and shone the flashlight on the other side of the body. There was no wound there.

It was obvious that it had been running away after being injured, but it couldn’t run anymore and died of blood loss.

The mahogany forest had a cool climate. The cat had been dead for a long time, but it didn’t give off an obvious rancid smell. At least, Zhang Zian didn’t smell it, but the Elfins should have.

When the elves came, there were some small carrion-eating animals or arthropods nearby, but they ran away as soon as they got close.

“Can you tell what kind of animal it was?” Old time tea asked.

Zhang Zian shook his head.

If Mike, a veteran who had lived in the forest for a long time, was here, he might have been able to see it. However, Zhang Zian was not an experienced Hunter, so it was impossible for him to tell what beast had bitten him just by looking at the wound.

Since the cat had escaped here after being injured, this was not the scene of the crime, and the footprints of the culprit could not be seen.

“Needless to say, it must be a coyote! I’m 80% sure it’s the group last night!” “Black bears use their claws,” Vladimir said indignantly.”What other animals can there be besides coyotes?”

“It’s possible that it’s a coyote, but the problem is that the cat-Yingying-can actually escape after being bitten. ”

He was a little puzzled by this question. It would be fine if he could struggle to escape from the claws, but after being bitten by the hook-like fangs of a carnivorous beast, he could actually break free and escape? It was indeed possible that it was the work of the coyote with a smaller bite.

What was even stranger was that after the beast bit the cat, it didn’t chase after it? Wasn’t this the same as letting the prey escape?

The elves didn’t think too much about it. Vladimir was in pain, regretting letting the pack of coyotes go last night. Maybe it was the pack of coyotes that ran away and met the cat.

Zhang Zian was a little worried that fina would be too emotional, but when he looked at it, it was calmer than Vladimir. It was just staring at the cat’s body thoughtfully.

“Fina, what do you think?” He took the initiative to ask.

Fina glanced at him and said indifferently,””No matter what, this cat died in battle and didn’t bring shame to the cat race. That’s enough.”

Speaking of dying in battle, Zhang Zian was suddenly inspired. He quickly used a branch to pull the cat’s two front paws. Sure enough, he saw a few strands of hair in front of the paws that did not seem to belong to the cat.

Just as fina had said, the cat had died in battle. Even if the other party was far stronger than it, at least it had tried to resist, but it had only managed to scratch a handful of its hair.

These strands of hair were dark in color, but unfortunately, Zhang Zian could only tell that they were not from a black bear, and probably not from a cougar. He could not tell what kind of beast the hair was from.

“Zian, I can’t bear to see its corpse exposed in the wilderness. Can you please bury it?” Old time tea pleaded.

In the traditional view of China, it was indeed important to be buried in peace. Corpses lying in the wilderness would only turn into a delicious meal for all kinds of carrion eaters. After death, not even a complete body would be left, which would affect the next reincarnation, so even eunuchs would preserve their manhood for life.

“Alright,” he said. Zhang Zian nodded in agreement.

Although this was a waste of energy and meaningless work for him, since it was old time tea’s request, he didn’t want to refuse. From the perspective of a cat, he really couldn’t bear to leave the body of his own kind alone. This was also a cat’s nature.

He took out a folding shovel from his backpack. He usually used this shovel to cut long dead branches into a few pieces, or cut some dry tree cores from dead trees to start a fire.

He quickly dug a small pit under the tree with a shovel that could only accommodate the cat’s body. He deliberately dug deeper to prevent scavengers from digging it out after they left.

After the pit was dug, he caught his breath and pushed the silly cat into the small pit with a branch. He then shoveled the soil and flattened it. Finally, he covered it with dead branches and grass, making it impossible to see anything from the surface.

After burying it, he packed up the shovel and called the Elfins to continue on the road.
