Chapter 92 Rescue and Naming of the Giant Panda
Gu Yiliu looked at the emaciated giant panda. Before the apocalypse, she had also seen giant pandas, all of them round and plump, each with its own quirky and mischievous nature.
The panda was so thin, she felt sorry for it and took out a piece of cake. "Try it and see if you like it. How did you end up drowning?"
The giant panda stretched out its paw, grabbed the cake, stuffed it into its mouth, and began to wolf it down.
It devoured a piece of cake in no time.
"Meow meow meow".
I came here to find something to eat; I haven't eaten in a long time.
The thin panda's voice was low. It licked its creamy paws again and again. The sweet taste made its aching stomach feel a little better, but it wasn't enough. It felt its hunger growing stronger.
Judging from its movements, Gu Yiliu knew it wasn't full yet, so she had Diandian give it another small cake.
The giant panda's two black eyes were filled with disbelief. "Baa baa baa!" Thank you, Officer Gu!
It held it carefully in its hands, and this time it ate very slowly, cherishing the few remaining rations.
After it finished eating, Gu Yiliu made another suggestion.
"Let me bandage your wound."
"Meow meow meow!" Thank you, Officer Gu!
"May I have your name?"
The giant panda shook its head. "I don't have a name."
Didn't your mother name you?
The panda shook its head again, "Baa baa baa!" I've never seen my mother!
How old are you?
"Meow meow meow." 3 years old.
Gu Yiliu picked it up; its weight of over 60 kilograms was still too light for a 3-year-old giant panda. She placed it on the riverbank, washed its black and dirty fur around the wound, and only began applying medicine after cleaning it.
"You don't have a mother, how did you grow up? Who protected you as you grew up?"
"Meow meow meow".
I've always followed a male giant panda who lives near my cave. He taught me all my skills, but he's not my father.
"Where is that male giant panda?" Gu Yiliu looked around at the mountains, but apart from the giant panda in front of him, there was no trace of any wild animals.
The giant panda's mood suddenly plummeted, and its bleating became trembling.
It told Gu Yiliu that the male giant panda who had protected it during its childhood had died of illness a year ago.
"Baa baa baa." After it died, its body was eaten by a tiger.
Powerless to do anything, it could only hide in the shadows and watch as the father-like male panda was devoured by the two tigers.
After bandaging the two wounds, Gu Yiliu examined the animal and found that its leg was also broken, with the severed limb dragging on the ground and some of its fur worn away.
She gently touched it, but the panda remained expressionless as it ate its cake in small bites, showing no reaction whatsoever.
Its answer made Gu Yiliu even more heartbroken.
"Meow meow meow." Officer Gu, I've gotten used to this kind of pain.
Do you want your leg to be healed?
The giant panda was stunned, staring blankly at Gu Yiliu, "Mwah?" Can it be cured?
Gu Yiliu nodded, "Okay."
Tears welled up in the panda's eyes. "Baa baa baa." Officer Gu, if it's still treatable, I want to heal my leg.
"I will help you heal your leg," Gu Yiliu told it, explaining that she planned to take it away from here to a hospital.
The giant panda hesitated for a moment, "Humans... will take me away. They like us very much, so it's better not to go to human territory."
In the giant panda's mind, humans like them, but they will take them away and never be able to return to the mountains, eat their favorite bamboo, see their familiar neighbors, or face their hated rivals.
Gu Yiliu pursed his lips. This giant panda was young and might not understand what the poachers' actions meant, but it already knew that it should avoid humans.
“Don’t worry, with me here, you won’t be taken away by others,” Gu Yiliu said. “The people who took away the pandas don’t like you. Remember, they are bad people.”
The giant panda lowered its head, looked at the cake in its hand, and muttered something softly.
Gu Yiliu heard it.
The panda said, "I know they are bad people. The tiger and the owl have both said they are bad people."
"Officer Gu, will you hand me over to those bad guys?"
Gu Yiliu patted its head. "If you're afraid of me, then why did you ask me for help?"
"Baa baa..." the owl said, "You're very kind. I don't want to die, so..."
"Don't worry, since I didn't kill you, I won't hand you over to bad people."
After Gu Yiliu finished speaking, he picked it up and carried it towards the city.
After walking for a long time, we finally saw a wildlife rescue station.
Gu Yiliu sent the giant panda inside.
The giant panda gets very nervous when it sees a stranger, and even when it sleeps, it holds her hand tightly, like a little child who needs comforting.
After examination, the giant panda was found to be more than 20 kilograms lighter than normal giant pandas, suffering from severe malnutrition. The rescue station fed it some meat, and it fell asleep after eating its fill.
Its broken leg was also treated at this time, because the giant panda was still awakened by the pain.
But when it woke up and saw that they were treating its leg, it actually watched quietly without making a fuss.
"This panda is so well-behaved," a staff member at the rescue station exclaimed, then asked about other things, "Comrade Gu, since you can understand it, could you help us ask if there are any other wild giant pandas in its territory?"
Gu Yiliu looked at the giant panda, who nodded and bleated.
"It said there was one, but that panda rarely appears. The last time it saw it was before its adoptive father passed away."
"Is that giant panda your adoptive father's companion? How is it? Does it need rescue?"
The giant panda shook its head: "No, it just wandered into our territory while looking for food. It's much fatter and more powerful than me."
The staff members exchanged glances, beaming with delight and confidence. "We can place some food near the giant panda's territory; that should be enough to track it down."
The giant panda stayed at the rescue station temporarily, and Gu Yiliu also stayed. The panda didn't want her to leave, and the staff at the rescue station were curious about her ability to understand animal languages and wanted her to help translate the languages of some of the animals they rescued.
There is also a giant panda in the rescue station named Liang Gang. She is a female giant panda. However, Liang Gang is very lively. According to the staff, she was rescued from the nearby mountains. She was caught in an animal trap and injured her foot. After her injury healed, the rescue station wanted to send her back to the mountains, but no matter how far they sent her, Liang Gang could run back. Every time she came back, she would have a big meal before leaving.
Seeing that the pandas were in much better spirits, the staff at the station arranged for the two pandas to meet.
Upon meeting, Liang Gang greeted the giant panda with familiarity, "Baa baa baa!"
The staff at the rescue station all came over to watch the two giant pandas interact. They couldn't understand what Liang Gang was saying, but seeing how excited Liang Gang was, they knew it was very happy. They looked at Gu Yiliu, hoping she could explain something to them.
"Liang Gang introduced himself and asked the giant panda what its name was."
When Liang Gang heard Gu Yiliu translate his words to the staff, his eyes widened in shock. He stared blankly at Gu Yiliu and uttered a puzzled "Huh?"
Gu Yiliu was satisfied with its reaction and smiled at it.
Liang Gang closed his mouth, quickly looked at the giant panda, and asked, "Meow meow meow?" Where did you meet her?
The giant panda ignored Liang Gang, its expression somewhat downcast.
After staring at its own legs for a long time, it looked up at Lianggang and asked, "Baa baa baa?" Who gave you your name? Why are you called Lianggang?
Liang Gang pointed to a staff member next to him, "Meow meow meow." He was the one who saved me. His name is Liang Wei, and my name is Liang Gang.
Gu Yiliu didn't interrupt the two pandas' conversation, but soon she felt a furry hand touch her arm.
She looked down and heard the giant panda ask her, "Mwah?"
Officer Gu, could you help me come up with a name? Something like Liang Gang.
Liang Gang understood instantly and patted the giant panda on the shoulder to comfort it.
"Of course." The giant panda's request was also reported by the police, just as the previous attempt to treat its leg had also triggered an emergency call.
Gu Yiliu thought for a moment, "You like cake, so how about we name it Gao Gao?"
"Gao Gao," the giant panda repeated, then asked Gu Yiliu, "Officer Gu, can I take your surname, Gu?"
Gu Yiliu was taken aback for a moment, "You don't have to take my surname. If you insist on having a surname, you can take the surname He, Hebian."
I rescued you by the river. Your name is Gao Gao. Humans eat cake on their birthdays, which represents blessings. "He" also means blessing. He Gao Gao, with this name, you'll have enough to eat every day from now on and won't go hungry. It sounds much better than Gu Gao Gao. What do you think?
He Gao Gao, He Gao Gao.
The giant panda repeated the name twice, feeling that its name sounded better than Lianggang. It nodded happily, accepting the name.
"Thank you, Officer Gu! I like this name!"
Gu Yiliu smiled and nodded. She also liked the positive feedback it gave her. In just one day, she had already earned 3% positive feedback from it.
Several of Liang Wei's staff members watched from the sidelines, unable to hide their shock and curiosity. Liang Wei couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Gu, could you ask Liang Gang for me what his impression of us is?"
Gu Yiliu looked at Liang Gang, "Can you tell me?"
Liang Gang looked her over curiously, and after a long while he spoke, “They have lots of good food, and they are good people.”
Gu Yiliu laughed out loud and relayed Liang Gang's words to Liang Wei and the others.
Feeling good after receiving a "good guy" card, Liang Wei said, "Could you please ask Liang Gang if he's male?"
Liang Gang glanced at him, his face full of displeasure, and barked, "Woof woof woof woof!" I'm a female!
Gu Yiliu chuckled, "Liang Gang is female."
"Huh? We made a mistake?"
Liang Gang proudly raised his head, clearly admitting his mistake!
"And what about this?" Liang Wei pointed to He Gaogao again.
"Baa." I'm male. The giant panda looked at Gu Yiliu and obediently spoke.
Liang Wei got a little carried away and asked, "Ask Liang Gang again why it doesn't want to stay on the mountain. Is it because we have food here?"
Liang Gang nodded, somewhat annoyed, and said, "There's no food on the mountain, and it's dangerous. There's food here, and it's not dangerous."
Liang Wei: "I see," he looked at Liang Gang and asked, "Liang Gang, if you don't want to stay on the mountain, would you like to come back to the Giant Panda Protection Center with us? There are many of your kind there, and plenty of food to feed you." If you don't want to go back to the mountain, then we will bring you back to the center; it's impossible to keep you at the rescue station for long.
Liang Gang immediately became alert. "Meow meow meow?" What is the center?
Gu Yiliu explained on Liang Wei's behalf.
Liang Wei then explained to Liang Gang again.
After listening, Liang Gang glanced at He Gaogao, then at Gu Yiliu, and sat down behind Gu Yiliu. "Meow meow meow!" I want to go with her!
Where there are many of its own kind, there will be competition, and it doesn't want to go there. The Officer Gu in front of it seems very nice, and she can even understand what it's saying. It thinks she's more reliable than any protection center.
Liang Gang knows where freedom lies and where it doesn't.
As soon as Liang Gang finished speaking, He Gaogao's panicked voice rang out. She struggled to get up from the bed, ignoring the IV tube in her hand, and grabbed Gu Yiliu's leg.
Its panicked state caused its voice to turn into barking.
"Woof woof woof woof!" Officer Gu, I want to follow you too! I don't want to stay here!
Liang Wei and the others looked at each other, and although they couldn't understand what they were hearing, they understood from their actions.
I couldn't help but doubt myself. Could they really be that bad?
Gu Yiliu patted He Gaogao's head. Even if she wanted to raise a giant panda, it wasn't so easy to take it away. "Don't be nervous, just focus on getting your IV drip first."
He Gaogao looked up, her eyes moist. "Meow meow meow?" Officer Gu, I really want to go with you. Can you take me with you when you leave?
Gu Yiliu's eyebrows twitched slightly as he looked at the emergency call for help that popped up.
No matter how difficult it is to take her away, she will take her away!
Actually, even if we take her away, there are places to put He Gaogao. Both Min Songyue's Wildlife Rescue Park and Yaohai City Zoo can take her in.
She looked at He Gaogao and comforted it, "If you behave, I'll take you away."
He Gaogao understood, immediately let go of her, and obediently lay down.
"Baa baa baa." Officer Gu, me too! Me too! I want to go with you too.
Gu Yiliu waited for the police report to be issued, but after waiting and waiting, the system panel remained silent.
She felt a little regretful.
“Its desire to go with you isn’t that strong,” Dot appeared and said.
"oh?"
"So it seems that only strong emotions can lead to a call for help from the police."
He made a sound.
Gu Yiliu looked at Liang Wei and the others, "After He Gaogao recovers, I want to take it back to the Yaohai City Wildlife Rescue Park."
“This was found in this area. Our leaders will not allow you to take it away. We are grateful that you saved it, but if we are to take care of it, it is our responsibility.”
Gu Yiliu nodded, determined to succeed, "So, could you please introduce me to your leader?"
Despite his surprise, Liang Wei still helped her make the introduction.
After some negotiation, Gu Yiliu successfully took He Gaogao away.
However, she also agreed to the center's requests, such as using her animal language to assist them in their research on giant pandas.
Professionals should do professional things. Coincidentally, Gu Yiliu is a professional.
Perhaps she can even earn a few more positive reviews because of this.
And indeed, Gu Yiliu's visit to the Giant Panda Wildlife Conservation Center earned him two positive reviews.
