Reborn as a tiger cub, I'm too weak, so I can only rely on self-discipline.

Chapter 61 Whose mother tiger raises her cubs so easily?

Plop~!

Seeing the clear, flowing river, the tiger mother didn't rush to eat; instead, she excitedly jumped into the water to cool off.

As time went by, the weather got hotter and hotter.

During this period, they were constantly migrating, and water sources were scarce, with only trickles available, making it impossible to take a bath.

Tigers are also very clean big cats. They lick their fur all the time, keeping themselves clean and beautiful.

In addition, unlike humans, tigers do not have sweat glands to expel heat from their bodies through sweating.

That is why tigers have such poor stamina.

A good heat dissipation system is the source of endurance.

Otherwise, if the amount of exercise is too large, the heat accumulated in the body cannot be discharged, which will naturally affect the operation of various bodily functions and reduce endurance.

This is why tigers are afraid of heat but not cold.

Therefore, cool river water is an environment that tigers really like, and it is also an important factor that many tigers consider when choosing a habitat.

This is not only a stable water source, but also the key to getting through the sweltering heat!

Seeing this, Cangnian was also tempted and jumped into the river with a splash.

The cool river water washed over his fur, carrying away the dust and parasites, as well as the agonizing heat that had been building up inside. Cang Nian felt incredibly refreshed.

However, the river was not only wide but also quite deep, probably three or four meters deep. The sunlight shimmered on the water, making it a very pleasant sight.

In addition, because there is a rapid waterfall a few hundred meters upstream, the overall trend of the river is downward, so the river is not as gentle as the wide Cam River, but rather quite rapid.

Cang Nian had only been in the water for two and a half minutes, floating motionless on the surface, when he was swept downstream for a hundred meters by the rapids.

[Ding! Stroke 10m, Stroke Skill Proficiency +1! (23/100)]

Hearing the system notifications coming from his mind, Cang Nian suddenly had a flash of inspiration!

"Huh? I don't need to swim, I just get carried by the current for 100 meters, and that counts as proficiency?"

Why can't my running skill proficiency be counted when I'm sitting in the car?

Well then, wouldn't this way I could use this river to practice my paddling skills faster, going from upstream to downstream?

Then I went ashore and ran up the grass, accumulating proficiency in my sprinting skill.

This way, not a single moment is wasted; leveling up two skills simultaneously is definitely highly efficient!

The more Cangnian thought about it, the more excited he became. He simply turned around on the surface of the water, facing downstream, and swung his limbs underwater.

Because he was paddling with the current, it was just like running with the wind on the ground, and his speed was so fast that he could fly!

[Ding! Stroke 10m, Stroke Skill Proficiency +1! (100/100)]

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your paddling skill proficiency has reached maximum. This skill has evolved into—Swimming!]

In less than five minutes, Cangnian had completed the accumulation of proficiency in his paddling skills and evolved them to the next stage!

As his skills evolved, Cangnian felt his limbs become stronger. Although the increase was not significant, it was still a real improvement!

Seeing that they were already several hundred meters away from the tiger parents, Cangnian quickly reached the shore, stood up, shook off the water droplets, and then scurried over to the tiger mother.

At this moment, Tiger Brother was squatting on the bank under the scorching sun, carefully testing the river water with his front paws.

It also wanted to jump into the water for a bath.

But the fast-flowing water made it somewhat afraid.

Moreover, this is much wider than the stream in front of my old house!

Through the clear river water, it could see the depth of the river, which was deeper than its father's tail when it was stretched out!

Seeing this, Cangnian ran behind Tiger Brother and suddenly slapped him with his paw!

[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (666/10000)]

Ouch~!

Plop~!

Immediately, Tiger Brother screamed in terror and fell down.

Cangnian wasn't idle either; he jumped into the water to help Tiger Brother keep an eye on things.

Although Tiger Brother's size is still consistently larger than his, Cangnian's strength is now vastly different from before. After evolving from paddling to swimming, ensuring Tiger Brother's safety while swimming is no longer a problem.

Tigers' natural swimming ability prevented the younger tiger from sinking, but it was swept downstream by the rapids, which made it quite panicked.

Fearing it would be swept away, the younger tiger frantically thrashed its limbs underwater. Fortunately, it still had a good sense of balance and managed to avoid capsizing itself, otherwise it would have swallowed a lot of water.

Seeing this, Cangnian sped up to catch up with Tiger Brother, who was drifting downstream, and walked alongside him.

"Ow~!"

Then, Cangnian let out a low roar, signaling to Tiger Brother to watch his actions.

Although Tiger Brother was still scared, his anxiety subsided considerably because his older brother was with him, and he reflexively focused his attention on Cangnian.

This is the result of Cangnian's continuous training of Tiger Brother after he opened his eyes.

After spending more than twenty days together in this fixed environment, Tiger Brother understood that if he didn't listen to his older brother, he would get beaten up.

So, even though he was uneasy, Tiger Brother still obediently did as he was told.

Seeing that Tiger Brother obediently followed orders, Cang Nian's head faced upstream, and his limbs moved rhythmically underwater at a slow speed so that Tiger Brother could see him clearly.

Even though Cangnian moved his limbs very slowly, the correct posture still gave him a force to resist the water flow, making his head, which was originally level with Hudi's, suddenly lead by several body lengths.

So Cangnian turned around again, returned to Tiger Brother's side, and once again aligned with it, repeating the same action as before.

After repeating this several times, Tiger finally grasped the key.

Hua Hua Hua...

Tiger tried to imitate the steps that Cang Nian took when paddling underwater.

Then, its body, which continued to drift downstream, actually surpassed Cang Nian by two body lengths!

With the results, Tiger Brother became even more confident and boldly increased the speed at which he moved his limbs.

Hua Hua Hua...

Soon, Tiger Brother mastered the technique of paddling, and his body no longer drifted downstream with the current, but remained relatively still with the plants on the shore!

Seeing this, Tiger Brother became excited!

So it's just applying the movements of running on land to water!

Then, Tiger Brother swung his limbs even more vigorously, and the surrounding scenery slowly receded in his field of vision, and the distance between his body and the waterfall in front of him was getting closer!

"I've finally learned it."

Seeing this, Cangnian nodded in satisfaction.

Summer is here, how can you get by if you can't swim?

Unlike human rooms with air conditioning, the outdoors requires bathing to beat the heat.

Fortunately, Tiger Brother is only a little afraid of things he hasn't seen before. After a few more encounters, he will overcome his fear.

Upstream, Tiger Mom was enjoying a relaxing bath, watching Cangnian teach Tiger Brother to swim, a warm smile spreading across her face.

Whose mother is so tigress when it comes to raising cubs?

One cub learns on its own without needing to be taught, and then teaches the other cub!

My baby is so easy to take care of and so cute!
