After sailing for two hours, the ship gradually approached the shore. The shore was already lit up and a group of people stood on the shore, welcoming them home.
Professor An, Fu Wudu and Qiao Xuejun stood on the bow of the deck and looked towards Hongmei Mountain.
Professor An said: "He also lives in the mountains."
Qiao Xuejun: "This mountain is quite safe. It didn't collapse even during the heavy rain. The rocks are solid and the structure is tight."
It was night time now, and I couldn't see the scenery on the mountain clearly, but I could see the outlines of a group of people standing on the shore. Professor An sighed: "It's people. I haven't lived with people for a long time."
He lives alone, and never meets any other people when he is with the animals. He can hardly even speak human language.
Although I have been with Zhao Xian and the others these days, the feeling of truly entering human society is most obvious at this time.
Qiao Xuejun: "Not many people came to pick us up. There are thousands of people in the base."
The lights on the shore were very bright, but against the light, Qiao Xuejun couldn't see the people on the shore clearly.
It wasn't until the ship docked that I could see clearly that they were all wearing military protective clothing, the soldiers from the First Base. Two of them were wearing lighter-colored clothing, and they were dressed as military doctors.
They are Wang Juanfeng and Military Doctor Zheng.
Kuang Qianli was also standing next to Wang Juanfeng.
Seeing Wang Juanfeng and the other person, Qiao Xuejun smiled naturally and waved at them.
When the ship came to a stop, the soldiers on the shore boarded first to help move things and maintain order.
Professor An and Qiao Xuejun took the animals off the boat first, and then the crew members in the restaurant came out and stood on the deck, waiting for the arrangements of the first base.
Qiao Xuejun led the sika deer ashore.
"Jojo!"
Wang Juanfeng came up and gave her a hug, then stepped back two steps and first saw the sika deer that Qiao Xuejun was leading behind him. He was surprised, but he didn't care about it. He turned his head and looked Qiao Xuejun up and down: "Did you have a smooth trip? Are you not injured?"
Kuang Qianli said: "Zhao Linlin also wanted to pick you up, but it's dark and cold now, so she wasn't allowed to come out."
Qiao Xuejun smiled and said, "It's fine. It's going pretty smoothly."
She did not elaborate on the difficulties and obstacles she encountered along the way. She raised her hand and motioned Wang Juanfeng to look at Professor An beside him: "Doctor Wang, Master Kuang, this is Professor An, the target person we are going to rescue this time."
She looked at the animals behind her and said, "These animals are all raised by Professor An."
Wang Juanfeng looked at the animals again with an incredulous look in his eyes: "How do they keep them alive?"
Kuang Qianli, including other soldiers on the shore, were all paying attention to the animals: the cute sika deer, the handsome fox, and the gorgeous peacock.
These days, raising these animals seems like a fantasy.
Wang Juanfeng looked at Professor An with admiration and introduced himself: "Professor An, welcome to Hongmei Mountain. My name is Wang Juanfeng, and I am considered a military doctor at the First Base. If you have a headache or fever, you can come to see me."
Professor An shook hands with Wang Juanfeng: "Hello, Doctor Wang."
"Looking for you?" Doctor Zheng beside him smiled, "Professor An must live in the First Base. Wouldn't it be more convenient for me to find him than to travel across mountains and rivers to find you?"
He also stepped forward and introduced himself: "I am the official military doctor of the First Base, my last name is Zheng. Hello, Mr. An."
Professor An nodded and shook Doctor Zheng's hand: "Hello, Doctor Zheng."
Professor An looked at the many living people on the shore, feeling the warmth from human beings. He then looked up at the mountain, where he could also see some patrol booths, which were buildings that only appeared in human society.
Tears glistened in his eyes, and his voice was a little unsteady with excitement: "Finally we've reached the base! This journey has not been easy. Thank you, Lord Zhao, thank you to all the soldiers, thank you to Teacher Qiao, thank you for saving me and these animals."
Zhao Xian also got off the boat, carrying the white falcon on his shoulder, and walked ashore.
"You're welcome, Professor An." He came over and said soothingly, "There will be more tasks for Professor An in the future."
Professor An nodded: "Yes, both are fine."
Although Professor An didn't know what use he could be at the moment, he just agreed to everything.
Zhao Xian called a soldier who was waiting on the shore: "Escort Teacher Qiao and some of the animals back to Qingli Mountain first."
This was agreed upon before, the herbivorous animals will be raised by Qiao Xuejun.
Qiao Xuejun looked at Zhao Xian and Bai Falcon Xuemi on his shoulder: "Why don't they all go to my place? The meat eaters can go too, so it will be easier to manage."
It is convenient for her to monitor the condition of the animals without having to run back and forth between two places.
Zhao Xian nodded: "Okay. I will provide you with meat regularly."
He reached out and picked up Xue Mi who was squatting on his shoulder, and handed it to the escorting soldier: "Send it over."
The soldier looked at Xuemi and the other animals with excitement in his eyes. He picked her up carefully, not daring to use force.
As a result, Xuemi flapped its wings gently and broke free, then fell back onto Zhao Xian's shoulder, folded its wings and squatted.
Qiao Xuejun smiled and said, "I think it's better for it to follow you and Professor An."
During the two days on the boat, Xuemi squatted on Zhao Xian's shoulder like a mangy dog and refused to come down. Only Professor An had to catch it with his own hands.
Zhao Xian felt helpless.
Professor An said, "Sure. Xuemi likes to fly outside and is quite active. She can also participate in some hunting work."
From ancient times to the present, gyrfalcons and hunting falcons have been domesticated basically for hunting, but they usually catch small animals, such as chickens, ducks, mice or rabbits. For larger animals, they catch fawns and occasionally fish.
But now the fish are very big.
Qiao Xuejun said: "There are some giant mutant creatures on the shore now. Can we hunt like this?"
