Chapter 83 The Banana Temptation: The Monkey and the Squirrel's Hesitation
Montenegro.
Gu Yiliu stood halfway up the mountain.
According to Yuegu, it was rescued in Heishan. It was first discovered by villagers who went up the mountain to cut firewood, and then it was eventually transferred to the zoo.
“My mother and some uncles and aunts have been active in Montenegro, which is where they have lived for decades, so they will not leave easily.”
Thinking about what Yue Gu had said, Gu Yiliu looked at the Black Mountain in front of her. She couldn't find it herself, so she directly used a cheat.
System: "There is indeed a group of gibbons on the mountain, but they are not Yuegu's mother."
Gu Yiliu: "Where's Weifu?"
"I didn't find her either, but I did find one of Vif's sisters."
"Where is it?" Gu Yiliu planned to go and ask.
As soon as she finished speaking, some arrows appeared in front of Gu Yiliu's eyes, and Dian Dian told her to follow the arrows.
Gu Yiliu followed the directional arrows, traversing mountains and valleys, and finally found some traces of gibbons.
Monkey droppings, and some rotting fruits and vegetables on the ground.
Gu Yiliu looked around; the trees were lush, and the air was filled with a constant flow of moisture.
"call!"
A sharp, short cry suddenly rang out from the woods.
Gu Yiliu looked up and saw a small monkey standing on a tree branch, looking at her with a wary and frightened expression.
After making eye contact with her, his face blurred, and he quickly leaped forward, landing on another clump of branches.
"call!"
It called out to Gu Yiliu, then leaped between the trees until it disappeared from sight.
Gu Yiliu: "It just mistook me for a bad guy and tried to scare me."
Dian Dian: "It's normal. The humans who appear here usually harm them, so they try to scare you away."
"So tell me, if I wait here, will that little ape bring the big ape to find me?" Gu Yiliu asked Diandian.
The latter did not answer. Gu Yiliu did not ask any further questions, nor did he continue walking forward.
Instead, it looked up at a squirrel perched on a tree branch, munching on a bird's egg.
"Chirp!" The squirrel realized it was being watched, and the bird egg in its hand immediately fell to the ground in fright.
It also burrowed into the tree hole.
Gu Yiliu looked at the bird egg and shook his head. "Is it really necessary to be so scared? I'm clearly very kind. Do you think it will ask me for help later?"
Dot: "What kind of help will it ask you to do?"
"Let's wait and see."
The person and the system were talking, and after a while, the sound of rustling leaves came from the forest.
Gu Yiliu looked up and saw many gibbons in the trees, watching warily.
The little ape was behind a larger ape, probably its elder. It cautiously and curiously looked in her direction, and seeing she was still there, it hid behind its elder again.
Gu Yiliu chuckled softly.
"Hello, my name is Gu Yiliu." Gu Yiliu greeted the gibbons. "I'm not a bad person."
When Dian Dian heard her explanation, she burst out laughing.
Gu Yiliu glanced at it and continued speaking to the apes, "I'm here on the behalf of a gibbon. I'll leave once I find the ape I need and I won't harm you. It was rescued by humans in Heishan four years ago and is now at Yaohai City Zoo. It hopes to find its mother."
As soon as she finished speaking, the monkeys on site became lively.
"Hoo hoo hoo hoo?" A gibbon? In the zoo?
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh?" Who is Huai Gu? Does anyone know him?
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" If it's a gibbon from our Black Mountain, it must be one of ours. Has any of your families lost a child?!
...
As Gu Yiliu listened to the gibbons chatting amongst themselves, she added, "Yuegu is 6 years old this year. Its mother is named Sangxia. There is also a gibbon named Weifu next to Yuegu. It is 5 years old this year and also came from Heishan. Its mother is named Jinqiong."
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" She understands us! Is it Officer Gu?
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" It must be true. The animals in the mountains all say that Officer Gu is a woman and that she helps them. Right now, she is helping them.
The monkeys nodded in unison, accepting that Gu Yiliu was indeed Officer Gu from the Mountain Animals Chronicle.
Not far away, a small, furry head slowly emerged from a hole near the crown of a pine tree.
It was a pine tree. It cautiously looked down at the ground. Seeing so many monkeys, it opened its mouth in surprise, but didn't run away, just watching the spectacle.
"Hoo hoo hoo hoo?" Sang Xia? Jin Qiong? Does anyone know those two names?
“If any monkeys know, please tell me,” Gu Yiliu said, taking out two bananas. “Whoever tells me, I’ll give them to them.”
The monkeys looked at each other in bewilderment at first, but then the scene became lively because of the bananas.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" I know! I know!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh." I know that I used to often follow Sangxia around, and it does indeed have a daughter.
Gu Yiliu pinpointed the gibbon that had spoken, pointing to a black-faced, brown-haired ape.
"Could you come here for a moment?"
All the monkeys' eyes immediately turned to the spot being pointed at.
The gibbon that was pointed at immediately stood up straight.
"Hoo hoo hoo?" Is he calling me?
Gu Yiliu nodded, then tore open a banana and ate it.
The rich aroma, sweet but not cloying, stimulated every gibbon present.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" This is too much! Why does it smell so good?!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Mingming, hurry up and go. Just answer whatever she asks you, then bring back the bananas. Everyone should try them, they smell so good!
Upon hearing this, the monkey Mingming hesitated for a moment, then leaped down from the tree and slowly walked up to Gu Yiliu.
Gu Yiliu handed it a banana.
Mingming was taken aback and looked at Gu Yiliu. The latter nodded, indicating that it should take the food.
When Mingming got it, the sweet aroma tempted it. It quickly tore off the skin, took a bite, and then suddenly sped up.
Delicious, so delicious!
It glanced at Gu Yiliu; now, even if Officer Gu wanted it to follow her, it would agree.
While Mingming was eating a banana, Gu Yiliu took out a photo and asked it about it. The photo showed Yuegu and Weifu.
She told Mingming that this was Yuegu, "You said you know Yuegu's mother, Sang Xia?"
Mingming nodded. With a banana in her mouth, she spoke indistinctly.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" I used to pursue Sangxia, but before Sangxia agreed, it got sick and passed away.
There was a hint of sadness in Mingming's voice.
Gu Yiliu had already guessed something, so he wasn't surprised by Sang Xia's fate.
"When did Sang Xia leave? Did you know he had a daughter named Yue Gu?"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh." A year ago, it passed away from illness. I knew it had a daughter, but I didn't know her name. It said its daughter had also passed away.
After speaking, Mingming swallowed the last bite of banana, then looked at Gu Yiliu, waiting for it to speak.
Moreover, Mingming remembered that Officer Gu said he would give it two bananas, so it was also waiting for the second banana.
Gu Yiliu gave it a banana, "Do you know Weifu's mother, Jin Qiong?"
Mingming shook her head, "Whoosh whoosh whoosh."
There is no monkey named Jinqiong in the tribe.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh." However, Sang Xia had a good friend, a monkey named Jinli.
Does it have children?
Mingming nodded. "It had a daughter, but Jinli also got sick and passed away. A year ago, many monkeys in the tribe got seriously ill and died."
"Where is Jinli's daughter? Bring her to me so I can see her."
Mingming nodded, took the banana, and ran and jumped back to the monkeys' group.
It called out a baby ape, then tore the banana in its mouth in half, giving one half to the "watchful" monkey troop, and keeping the other half for itself and the baby ape.
"Hoo hoo hoo hoo!" When Officer Gu asks you something, just answer obediently. Officer Gu is a good person. If you behave well, you'll be able to eat and drink well in the future.
Gu Yiliu: "..."
Dot: "This monkey named Mingming is so smart."
really.
When the baby ape came to him, Gu Yiliu asked some questions. The baby ape was named Tailan. Tailan was young and didn't remember many details, but the adult ape that raised it did.
Many of the details were provided by the great ape Jin Yu.
"Hoo hoo hoo hoo!" Officer Gu, I was entrusted by Jinli to raise Tailan. Jinli gave me its den, and I've been very good to Tailan.
"Hoo hoo hoo hoo." Tailan was born two years ago. When Jinli left, Tailan was only one year old. Before Tailan, Jinli did have a male cub, but it went missing four years ago. However, I can't be sure if Weifu is Jinli's male cub. But all gibbons that came from Black Mountain are family.
Gu Yiliu hummed in agreement. Seeing the dog staring at her longingly, and realizing it wanted bananas, she gave it two.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Thank you, Officer Gu.
Jin Yu bowed and thanked Gu Yiliu.
Gu Yiliu watched as it returned to its territory, and the three little monkeys immediately ran to its side.
It divided the bananas into five portions. One portion was given to Tailan by a little monkey.
Gu Yiliu raised an eyebrow.
After Gu Yiliu had learned what she needed to know, she asked Mingming and Tailan if they would like to go to the zoo with her.
When Yuegu asked it for help, Weifu also mentioned that it would be great if it could find its family. So now that it has, Gu Yiliu can take it back, after all, it's a 1% positive review.
"I will bring you back."
Mingming nodded; it was willing to go.
Little Tailan then glanced back at the great ape, Golden Feather.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Go on, go on! It's alright!
Little Tailan, having received affirmation, finally nodded and went to the zoo to see its brother whom it had never met before.
The squirrels atop the pine tree gaped in astonishment; these monkeys really trusted this woman too much.
However, this woman can understand animal speech, how amazing! Should it ask her for help too?
