Chapter 124 (continued)

Shi Wen retorted, unconvinced, "Isn't it a bit much?"

Zhu Ji: "Then why did it turn and run away when it saw you?"

Yan Kexing: "Perhaps it sensed our intention to cause trouble?"

Shi Wen gently cradled the snow leopard cub's bottom in his arms with one hand, rubbing its nose. "Do we look that fierce?"

The male snow leopard ran away, but the cub was still screaming at the top of its lungs.

Shi Wen holding the snow leopard cub and spinning around in place for a while, unable to catch up with the male snow leopard, and getting a bit of a headache from the cub's cries.

He said, "This guy is probably hungry. I'll go borrow some goat milk, feed it when I get back, and then we'll decide what to do next."

Yan Kexing: "Go ahead, I'll go back and cook."

Shi Wen all the ewes in the farm that can produce milk are now pregnant and have stopped producing milk, and the remaining ewes are not yet adults.

They've run out of goat milk, but they still have cow milk. However, the snow leopard cub might get diarrhea if it drinks cow milk.

Taking everything into consideration, it's safer to borrow some goat milk from someone else.

He asked in WeChat group if anyone had goat milk, and villagers quickly replied.

Shi Wen, Shi Wen picked up the little snow leopard and rode his motorcycle towards the village.

He also wanted to leave the snow leopard cub at home and ride his bike alone to borrow goat milk.

The little snow leopard seemed to have chosen him, only allowing him to hold it.

When someone else tries to hold him, the little snow leopard clings to his clothes with its tiny paws, making it impossible to tear, and its cries are particularly pitiful.

He could only take the snow leopard cub with him to borrow goat milk.

On the way, the little snow leopard was still yelling at the top of its lungs, "meow," the "meow" carrying far away. It was also kneading its paws on his abs and trying to climb onto his chest.

The snow leopard cub's claws weren't fully developed yet; they were soft, and stepping on its abs wouldn't scratch its skin. However, the spot where the cub was nudging itself was rather embarrassing.

Shi Wen reached out and gently pressed the little snow leopard in her arms, saying in a flustered voice, "I know you're hungry, but don't do anything rash!"

The little snow leopard wouldn't listen at all, crawling all over him in his arms.

He had no choice but to extend his finger and let the snow leopard cub hold it in its mouth.

The little snow leopard sucked on his finger desperately, and finally calmed down.

Shi Wen at the herder's house, they quickly milked the goats and fed the snow leopard cubs a batch. They also milked an extra bottle of mineral water, intending to take it back and feed it again that evening.

After paying, Shi Wen made an appointment with the herdsman to come back to milk the cows the next day.

The herdsman kindly agreed.

When Shi Wen got home, she didn't even have time to eat before calling Zhou Hongzhong.

Zhou Hongzhong: "Huh? The snow leopard has come down the mountain again?"

Shi Wen sighed wearily, "Yes, and they even stole a cub for me."

Male snow leopards cannot give birth to cubs, nor do they have the habit of raising cubs with female snow leopards. It must have been stolen, but we don't know where it stole it.

Zhou Hongzhong: "How old is the baby?"

Shi Wen down at the little snow leopard sleeping soundly in his arms. "Its eyes aren't even open yet."

Zhou Hongzhong: "Then I'll bring some men over to take a look."

Shi Wen, "Come quickly, come and help me think of a solution."

This little snow leopard is very clingy. Shi Wen puts it down, it starts howling loudly and insists on being held by Shi Wen.

Shi Wen always known that human cubs were difficult to raise, but I never imagined that snow leopard cubs could be just as challenging.

Zhou Hongzhong quickly arrived with his men. He looked at the snow leopard cub and said, "This is really a skinny little cub."

The little snow leopard yelled at the top of its lungs, "Meow--"

Zhou Hongzhong gently patted the snow leopard's forehead. "You really love to bark."

"He might not feel safe." Shi Wen held the snow leopard cub steadily. "What are you planning to do with this cub? If you don't have any other plans, I'll see if I can find a way to return it to its mother?"

Zhou Hongzhong: "Theoretically speaking, it would be best if we could return them, but they've already been stolen, so it won't be easy to send them back. Let's register them first."

Shi Wen handed the snow leopard cub over to him for photography and registration, he said, "Okay, I'll see if I can return the cub tomorrow. We need to return it as soon as possible, otherwise the mother snow leopard might not recognize it."

Zhou Hongzhong could only say, "Thank you for your hard work."

Shi Wen shook his head. "It's nothing. It's trouble I caused myself, so I should clean it up. Where did you release the male snow leopard when you released it?"

Zhou Hongzhong: "Yuantai Mountain. The Yuantai Mountain in Yuantai Town."

Zhou Hongzhong showed Shi Wen the notes he had prepared in advance. "According to the locator worn by the snow leopard, it has been active near Yuantai Mountain recently."

Shi Wen, "That kid must have stolen it from Yuantai Mountain too."

After Shi Wen out the details, Shi Wen decided to send the little snow leopard back first thing the next morning.

After arranging his work, Yan Kexing went into the mountains with him.

Shi Wen easily found the snow leopard's footprints and identified the trail it left behind. Then, carrying the snow leopard, he and Yan Kexing headed up the mountain.

When going up the mountain, Shi Wen, and his two fluffy, pointed animal ears were sticking out.

He relied on his animal ears to gather nearby sounds; every now and then, his ears would twitch.

Since his ears transformed into animal ears, his hearing has become exceptionally sensitive, allowing him to hear sounds from several kilometers away.

It's possible that his animal ears, like cat ears, have two layers: an inner ear and an outer ear.

Based on his experience, Shi Wen clearly identified the animal's path, further enhanced by his hearing.

After more than two hours in the mountains, they successfully located the mother snow leopard.

The mother snow leopard had just given birth to her cubs and was at her most alert.

The Shi Wen and Yan Kexing appeared on the hilltop, the mother snow leopard spotted them.

The female snow leopard seemed a little confused, as if she felt their scent was friendly and didn't intend to attack.

Shi Wen took the snow leopard cub out of her arms and held its rear end up to show it to its mother.

The little snow leopard cried out hoarsely, struggling with its little paws, extending its claws outwards.
