Chapter 55
◎Take the panda away quickly◎
This is outrageous! This is outrageous!
Cheng Xianying was heartbroken.
People all over the country are worried about the safety of giant pandas, and now you tell me that you are worried about not being able to make it in time for lunch!
"Are those two bowls of rice so important?" If the bus was not still moving, Cheng Xianying would have taken this person to the laboratory for a thorough study.
Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him thought about it carefully and said solemnly: "Important."
"Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered to go back for lunch."
"This is absolutely ridiculous!" Cheng Xianying stamped his foot. "That's a national treasure, a panda! And it's not worth as much as your two bowls of rice?"
Forget about the national treasure. In Si Lan's eyes, he is just an unfamiliar monster that he has never seen before.
Not even as good as a grain of rice.
But seeing that the old man in front of him was so angry that he looked like he might faint at any time, Si Lan didn't say anything else.
But the painted horse in front turned around and said, "Old man, please fasten your seat belt."
For the sake of the giant pandas in the mountains, Cheng Xianying had to swallow his anger and wait and see how the situation develops.
And this young man, he must be reported!
Regardless of one's identity or status, this attitude is extremely infuriating!
If all else fails, report it with your real name! This kind of person is a persecution to everyone if they remain in society or at work!
Knowing that the God was in a hurry to go back for lunch, Hua Ma drove the carriage very fast and soon arrived at the mountains.
"The land is a good place." Cheng Xianying didn't expect the environment of this mountain to be like this. It surprised him a little. He thought these showmen would not provide a good environment for the animals.
He walked and looked around. "But your attitude is still very problematic. If there are so many wild animals, you should treat them well, but you still manage them in a closed environment!"
After muttering for a long time, Cheng Xianying realized that Si Lan was not listening at all. He took big steps and seemed to be in a hurry to go back for dinner.
“…”
Forget it, I'll go and check it out myself first.
After going up the mountain and passing through the narrow path, a refreshing breeze blew towards us, and even the air seemed to be much fresher.
Looking around, the mountains and water are reflected in each other, which is a beautiful sight.
Unconsciously, Cheng Xianying's voice became less anxious.
As a senior zoology research expert, in addition to giant pandas, he also visited many forests to observe wild animals and conduct surveys when he was young.
But there has never been a place like this that makes him feel amazed from the inside out.
It feels more mysterious than the primeval forest and more vast and pleasant than the grassland.
Although these two descriptions are contradictory, they are indeed what Cheng Xianying thinks in his mind.
"Snow-capped mountains?!" His jaw dropped when he saw the white snow between the clouds in the distance. "Where are you guys from? Aren't we in the south? How can there be snow-capped mountains?!"
But still no answer.
Si Lan walked towards the only house by the lake with a clear purpose.
At this time, the children were all sleeping, the caregivers and teachers were guarding in the classroom, and only Lian Jiu and his group and the two giant pandas were in the live broadcast room, still eating.
Seeing that the meal was not finished yet, Si Lan's brows relaxed.
When he saw Lian Jiu feeding the male white bear with a bowl of soup, his eyes darkened slightly and he walked over without saying a word.
"You're back?" Lian Jiu stood up. "Did you come back by yourself?"
Si Lan walked over to her and sat down without saying a word. Lian Jiu felt that he was not very happy, but before he could ask, he saw that there was an old man in a white coat following behind him, so he put the bowl of soup in front of Si Lan.
Si Lan: “?”
"Feed it first."
Si Lan pursed his lips: "I haven't eaten yet."
"I haven't eaten either." Lian Jiu said, "I saved some for you. We can eat together later."
It was unknown which words had touched Si Lan's soft spot, but the corners of his tense mouth finally relaxed a little. However, he still had a stern face and raised the soup bowl to turn to the white bear, commanding without emotion: "Open your mouth."
Gong Baibi: "..."
Help, why am I letting this god of death feed me?
Can’t you drink it yourself?
And why do I always feel like this demon god wants to kill me?!
Facing the oppressive gaze of the demon god at the top of the demon world's food chain, Gong Baibi opened his mouth tremblingly.
"Let me do it." Gu Huai, who had just finished his meal, couldn't bear to watch any longer. "Looking at your dead face, he'll probably have indigestion soon."
Xin Shang was so grateful that he immediately climbed up from his stool and went to Gu Huai's side.
Si Lan was happy to have some free time. Thinking that Lian Jiu had left some food for him, he didn't salivate over the leftovers on the table for the first time.
Xin Shang: Just feed me, why do you look like you want to kill me?
[Hahahahahahahaha, Si Lan's reluctant expression shouldn't be so obvious.]
[Si Lan is wearing a uniform again today. I'm so confused. How can someone look so harmonious and good-looking in a uniform with long hair?!]
Teacher Gu Huai also said Si Lan has a dead face. Help! If I could look at this face every day, I could eat five bowls of rice!
[Wait, wait, I'm missing the point. Who is this new old man? Why is he wearing a white coat? Master Ke, can you turn the camera around so I can see?]
As a professional, Ke Yuansi certainly knew what everyone was thinking, so after taking a picture of this demon god who caught the attention of netizens as soon as he appeared, he quickly turned the camera to the new old man.
Now netizens could also clearly see the words printed on the old man’s white coat - National Experimental Base for the Reproduction and Conservation of Giant Pandas.
[What the hell? Here come the professionals, folks!]
[At his age, he must be very experienced, right? Judging from his expression, he must be here to call for justice.]
"Teacher Cheng?" Wu Shanshan, who was feeding Wan Rao, stood up in surprise. "Why are you here?"
Cheng Xianying stared at the bowl of food in her hand and tried to calm himself down: "Put these things down quickly!"
Wu Shanshan immediately understood what Dean Cheng was talking about and looked to Lian Jiu for help. Lian Jiu comforted her with his eyes and said, "It's okay. Go on. I'll talk to Dean Cheng."
Cheng Xianying's eyes widened: "Continue?"
You still want to continue? You really don't take me seriously, do you?!
Lian Jiu knew he would react like this, but the old man was already so anxious, so he couldn't put too much pressure on him. "Don't worry, can we move a few steps and talk?"
[As expected, they're here to call me to task. I told you there's something wrong with their feeding method, and now you're in trouble!]
[But I'm still curious about the identity of this old man.]
[Don't you know? Those who frequently visit the panda base should have seen him. He's the director of the base's laboratory and the dean of Qingdao University's College of Veterinary Medicine. His doctoral supervisor is Cheng Xianying. His photo is visible on the official website. Wu Shanshan is one of his students.]
The veterinary medicine graduate student has arrived. It's indeed our advisor, and he's been paying close attention to pandas these past few days.
Most curious people actually searched for Cheng Xianying, and were filled with awe when they saw the dense research results in the entry.
[Amazing! Even Fuyu Mountain can alarm such a person?]
[It's time to make a move. This incident has a pretty big impact after all, and it's been trending on the search list for several days.]
Is Fuyu Mountain doomed? Dean Cheng seems furious, having seen firsthand how the pandas he's always wanted to protect are being treated.
【Move a few steps and talk. Is there anything we can't listen to?】
Some things really shouldn't be said in front of the live broadcast room, but Cheng Xianying's mind was all on the giant panda at the moment, so he was not willing to move a few steps to talk to Lian Jiuyi. He shouted angrily: "You are not allowed to feed it anymore!"
Gu Huai sighed softly and asked Wu Shanshan, "Your teacher?"
"Yes." Wu Shanshan wiped the cold sweat off her teacher's face. "In the field of veterinary medicine."
Gu Huai nodded: "So you want to compete with me to see who has better medical skills, right?"
Cheng Xianying looked at the young girl, unable to breathe.
He doesn't mean to look down on young people, but the results and research he has worked hard on for decades are definitely not comparable to those of these young people. Many research materials used by the younger generations are from his hands.
Whether out of respect for scholars and teachers or out of courtesy to elders, this attitude should not be adopted.
Cheng Xianying asked: "What is your main field?"
"Me?" Gu Huai raised an eyebrow. "From flying in the sky to swimming in the water, from plants to animals, they are all my majors."
[Oh my goodness, oh my goodness! I thought this was a new kindergarten teacher, but she turned out to be a hidden master?]
[Isn't that a bit exaggerated? Especially in front of Dean Cheng?]
Now that Lian Jiu has become famous, has he become too proud of himself? How can he even recruit people like this? How can he disrespect the senior experts?
[This kind of talk is not allowed. Hey, how come this beautiful sister can't see the truth? She can't even stand up when she speaks.]
Cheng Xianying was also shocked by the young man's words.
Not to mention animals to plants, there are so many experts in the industry now who have their own main focus and have been researching for a lifetime.
This young man dares to say that he knows everything!
Wu Shanshan hurriedly said, "Teacher Cheng, things are a bit complicated. Why don't you talk to Principal Lian Jiu? I'll be watching over here."
"And you!" Cheng Xianying couldn't control others, but he could still control his own students. "Is that what I taught you? If I had known you treated animals like this, I wouldn't have let you graduate!"
Gu Huai laughed out loud, and there was a hint of danger in his voice: "Is this old man threatening our teacher?"
Jiang An also stood up: "Why not just drag him in directly?"
Afraid that these two hot-tempered demon gods would really knock Dean Cheng unconscious and take him away, Lian Jiu said helplessly, "It's okay. You guys stop for a while and feed him later. Those who haven't eaten yet can eat first. I'll tell you when I come back."
After that, he said to Duan Zian, "Xiao Duan, come with me too."
I thought both young women were quite gentle. Wasn't the younger sister particularly sensible when I saw them studying? How could she have such a personality?
[Is the kindergarten population becoming increasingly diverse? Is Lian Jiu so bad at selecting people?]
[That's Dean Cheng. Wouldn't he be respected and admired anywhere else? But here he's being bullied by a bunch of juniors?]
My perception of kindergarten has been completely shattered.
If the panda issue isn't resolved today, I'll definitely give Lian Jiu a hard time later.
"Dean Cheng, can we talk for a moment?" Lian Jiu added, noting that things had calmed down. "It won't take you more than a few minutes. You can come back to see the pandas later. I want to talk to you about our philosophy on raising pandas."
Of course, Cheng Xianying did not pursue any issues of etiquette with these impetuous youngsters. These trivial matters were not worth mentioning in front of the panda.
He was also really curious about the so-called exclusive concept of raising pandas.
So he nodded reluctantly: "As soon as possible."
Lian Jiu took him and Duan Zi'an to his office, personally poured a glass of water for Cheng Xianying, and asked gently, "Is Dean Cheng feeling well? Do you have any history of heart disease?"
Cheng Xianying frowned: "What does this have to do with pandas?"
"It matters a lot," Lian Jiu said with a smile. "Your heart is in good condition, so it's convenient for us to take you to see the pandas."
Cheng Xianying's heart sank. There really was a problem. Was he afraid that he would get angry and become ill?
His face darkened: "My heart is in good health."
Lian Jiu gave Duan Zian a look and said, "Little Duan comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and is very knowledgeable about it. Let him examine you."
"Need not!"
"Yes, yes!" Duan Zi'an probably understood what the director was going to do and stepped forward. "Everyone who comes to our mountain must be checked. This is the rule. Otherwise, we can't take this responsibility. Don't worry, it will be done in a moment. There will be no loss or anything."
Cheng Xianying felt that even if he didn't have a heart disease, he would be so angry that he would have a heart attack.
But Lian Jiu acted as if he wouldn't say anything unless he was examined, so he had no choice but to let Duan Zian examine him.
Traditional Chinese medicine is very good at physical examinations. After a careful examination, Duan Zian was relieved: "Dean Cheng is indeed in good health. It seems that he can still make many contributions to my country's scientific research."
After receiving the news, Lian Jiu stepped forward and sat down in front of Cheng Xianying. "Dean Cheng, Shanshan mentioned you to me before, always saying that your character and professionalism are first-class, so I also have great respect for you."
But Cheng Xianying didn't buy it at all: "Stop talking about such formalities, let's get straight to the point."
Lian Jiu nodded: "We asked you to come here this time because we want you to be our witness."
"Witness what?"
"Witness our special method of raising animals at Fuyu Mountain."
"Special method? Are you saying you feed the pandas with human food?" Cheng Xianying glared at him. "You still want me to witness it? Do you think I have Alzheimer's? I'm telling you, it's impossible!"
"Don't be impatient." Lian Jiu lifted the unfinished water on the table and handed it to him. "Drink a sip of water first. After you drink it, I will tell you the reason."
Cheng Xianying was puzzled. Could this be some kind of poison?
But that shouldn't happen. After all, he has already appeared in the live broadcast room. If anything really happens, everyone here will be doomed.
It's impossible no matter how powerful you are.
So he took the water and drank it in one gulp as if he were to die heroically. After finishing the glass of water, he actually felt that the taste became sweet, and his originally anxious heart calmed down again.
In addition to drinking more hot water, does drinking more cold water also work?
This water tastes much better than other water.
Realizing that his thoughts had strayed, Cheng Xianying put down his cup and said, "Now you can tell me why you've done so many things."
Lian Jiu smiled and said, "Don't blame us for being so long-winded. This is mainly for your health, as our situation is a bit scary."
"I'm still strong and healthy. I'm not afraid even if the King of Hell comes. Why should I be afraid of scary people?"
"Then be prepared." Lian Jiu tried to soften his voice. "Our animal husbandry methods are indeed somewhat unique, different from those used outside, and no one can imitate them."
Cheng Xianying nodded, thinking that he still had some bottom line and knew to tell others not to imitate him.
Lian Jiu: "At that time, our animals were different from those outside."
Cheng Xianying nodded again, thinking that it indeed looked much better than ordinary animals.
Lian Jiu: "That's because the animals in our mountains are all monsters."
Cheng Xianying nodded...
Vung Tau is in an awkward position.
Fortunately, Duan Zian, who had been taking care of him, quietly straightened his head.
"You heard right." Lian Jiu continued, "It means monster, those monsters in myths that can transform."
"Ha." Cheng Xianying laughed, "You're quite humorous."
As he spoke, he subconsciously went to look for his water cup. Lian Jiu stood up and poured him a glass of water, waiting patiently for him to finish drinking it.
In fact, Lian Jiu thought about this matter for a long time and wondered whether he should tell Cheng Xianying.
But being pushed to this height, there must be a person who can better convince the majority of netizens to take charge.
She also secretly investigated for a long time.
She trusts Wu Shanshan's character. As an influential expert in the country, Cheng Xianying's character is also one of the best. His attitude towards animals is also very upright.
Faced with so many people, even someone in Si Lan's current position was not intimidated by power.
As a lucky animal, Bai Ze also went to check it out privately and could sense that the aura of this old man was worthy of getting close to.
That's why Lian Jiu chose to invite Cheng Xianying to come over and ask him to be the persuasive person and take charge.
After drinking another glass of water, Cheng Xianying still didn't hear anything else from Lian Jiu. Seeing her serious expression, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
He said sternly, "I'm not here to listen to your jokes."
"It's not a joke." Lian Jiu thought for a moment and called out, "An An."
This little Bai Ze can't leave me alone all the time, he must be at the door now.
Sure enough, within a few seconds Jiang An, who had been eavesdropping at the door, pushed the door open and walked in: "Jiujiu, I didn't mean to eavesdrop."
Cheng Xianying should remember that this was the little girl who wanted to drag him away.
"It's okay." Lian Jiu raised his eyes slightly and asked her to come to his side. "Dean Cheng doesn't quite believe that we are in the demon world."
Jiang An thought for a few seconds, then an idea flashed in his mind: "You want me to transform, right?"
Lian Jiu looked at Cheng Xianying opposite him.
Cheng Xianying held the disposable water cup in his hand and said, "Change it, I can handle it."
Although he felt a little nervous, he just didn't believe that such a thing could really happen.
When he was young, he had seen countless ferocious beasts in the primeval forest. His courage had been honed to a great extent, stronger than many young people, and he was very courageous.
Jiang An nodded, and without any warning, he disappeared the next moment. Lying on the ground was an animal that looked like a snow-white lion but had antlers.
Cheng Xianying squeezed the water cup in his hand and leaned back.
Duan Zian went to the old man's place with familiarity: "Dean Cheng, can you still bear it? I'm a professional!"
Damn it, is this a professional question?
This is already a myth!
But maybe it was because Lian Jiu had been laying the groundwork for too long, or because he was really old, and had seen too many dangerous situations before, but Cheng Xianying was not too panicked at this time.
He was just a little confused, the kind of confused feeling that came from having his cognition shattered.
I didn't react for a long time and just stood there speechless.
Lian Jiu stood up again and brought him a new cup to pour water.
This water is mountain spring water. Not only does it taste good, it also has some nourishing effects and can calm the mind.
Cheng Xianying gulped down the drink, then his shoulders slumped heavily. "Tell me again from the beginning."
He is indeed an old senior, and his knowledge and understanding are much better than those of young people like Ke Yuansi.
So Lian Jiu slowly recounted what happened in the mountains, explaining it in great detail so that the old gentleman could understand.
"So you see we feed animals and children the same food. It's actually because their body structures are different from those of ordinary animals, so their ability to absorb it is much stronger. Eating the food we eat may even be more nutritious for them."
Although it was beyond his comprehension, in fact, after listening to Lian Jiu's calm and steady explanation bit by bit, Cheng Xianying was almost completely immersed in the process. He did not show any signs of panic and even started thinking.
He was silent for a long time: "So what is your purpose in calling me here?"
"Dean Cheng, at the current rate of development in the demon world, demons will definitely be able to coexist harmoniously with humans in the future. In this process, in order to prevent this from happening too abruptly, we need to gradually show humans our uniqueness."
Lian Jiu said slowly, "But being too special can also make people rebellious. Take our Bai Xiong couple for example. You've experienced this yourself. They'll find us unreasonable and difficult to convince."
"So you want me to convince everyone?"
Lian Jiu nodded: "You have the strength and influence, and we will have more monsters in the future. It is impossible for every monster to cause such a big disturbance."
Cheng Xianying thought: "But your method is indeed very different from the ordinary ones."
"So this is our exclusive method for Fuyu Mountain. All you have to do is say that only we can use it." Lian Jiu smiled gently, "Put a label on it that's exclusive to our Fuyu Mountain."
Actually, this is not impossible.
Cheng Xianying is Wu Shanshan's mentor. To a large extent, some of Wu Shanshan's ideas were taught by him, such as the hope that animals and humans can live in equality.
The same applies to monsters.
Furthermore, this matter had been approved by the higher-ups. Cheng Xianying nodded and suddenly asked, "So, that newly created department is for you?"
New creation?
Was it done by humans after Si Lan left?
Lian Jiu nodded: "If you mean Si Lan, then it is true."
"What kind of demon is Si Lan?"
Lian Jiu chose to conceal the fact that Si Lan was a rabbit, saying: "He is not a demon, but an ancient demon god who guards the demon world."
Ancient demon god?
Then it must be thousands or tens of thousands of years old? !
Thinking of his attitude towards Si Lan in the car and on the road, Cheng Xianying: "..."
He wanted to drink water again, and looked at the unknown animal squatting obediently at Lian Jiu's feet: "Who is this?"
Lian Jiu touched Jiang An's head: "She is Bai Ze."
Cheng Xianying swallowed his saliva: "That guy outside who knows everything..."
"That's a medicine beast."
“……………………”
Not to mention that these young people were disrespectful to him, Cheng Xianying now even felt that he had offended several ancient demon gods.
Is that what it means to be proficient? Doesn't that mean he's an ancestor?! I should kowtow to him!
"Everyone, please wait. There's a live broadcast going on over there." Seeing that he was in good condition, Lian Jiu asked Bai Ze to transform back and said, "Shall we go out first?"
Cheng Xianying nodded nervously.
I followed Lian Jiu out with an indeterminate feeling in my mind, wondering what I should do.
As soon as he came out, everyone in the live broadcast room immediately perked up, waiting for the old expert to slap the panda in the face and take it away for protection.
Then all the netizens saw Dean Cheng walk to the dining table seriously and stare at the two pandas seriously.
Wu Shanshan stood up: "Teacher..."
Cheng Xianying reached out and took the bowl of nutritious meal for the panda in front of him, and solemnly asked Gu Huai, who was sitting at ease beside him, "Senior Gu Huai, can I feed the panda this meal?"
