Chapter 60
◎Panda Birth (Part 2)◎
Fuyushan's alternative way of rescuing animals quickly went viral, shocking not only people in China but also people abroad.
Because the red-crowned crane is not only a protected animal in China, but also a key protected object abroad. It also has joint protection cooperation with several countries.
So when this crested ibis was brought to Fuyu Mountain, it attracted the attention of many experts both at home and abroad. None of them had expected that there were people in the world who could understand animals and live in such harmony with them.
Foreign websites all sighed: China is such an ancient and mysterious country.
In this case, could you please advise me on applying to rescue some of the animals in my country as well?
So in the next few days, the popularity of the live broadcast room rose again.
The video of people and animals living in harmony in Fuyu Mountain was also forwarded crazily, and many people came to visit.
Sure enough, the condition of the red-crowned crane that was sent in was getting better day by day. From being unable to fly higher than the little turtle at the beginning, it can now fly to the tree branches in sync with Kong Xinxin.
The experts who originally raised the red-crowned crane were heartbroken.
You refused the delicious food and drinks served to you, and even went on a hunger strike. Now you want to have three big bowls of food for every meal. You fly up and down the mountains all day long to catch earthworms and insects, and present them to the teacher in a flattering manner.
But you have reproductive isolation! Wake up!
The red-crowned crane doesn't care about reproductive isolation, all it cares about is the goddess bird.
So when it was ready to be sent away after fully recovering, the bird was shocked: Why was it being sent away? Isn't this its paradise?
In fact, the Forestry Bureau has also considered whether to leave the red-crowned cranes in the mountains.
Anyway, it is healthy now and likes this place very much. Fuyu Mountain is quite special. In another sense, it can also be regarded as a wildlife nature reserve.
It will also be safer than protected areas outside. After all, no one knows where it is, and there is no risk of human destruction.
But this proposal was rejected by Lian Jiu as soon as it was put forward.
Although it is not impossible to raise one more bird in Fuyu Mountain, after this beginning, the human world will definitely send more and more animals in.
If this precedent is set, and every one of them stays in the mountains, they will inevitably have more interactions with the human world in the future.
You never know, that expert might come to visit, or that leader might come for an on-site inspection.
She knows all too well the complicated procedures.
So simple cooperation is enough, and avoiding excessive personal connections is also a kind of protection for Fuyu Mountain.
Furthermore, we cannot let the human world think that Fu Yushan is easy to talk to, otherwise Si Lan’s initiative there will be reduced.
It should be like this now, making it difficult for them to understand and unable to get what they want.
When the red-crowned crane was sent away, it was broadcast live on the entire network.
Because people from outside couldn't come in, Si Lan came back to get it.
The red-crowned crane, which had recovered well in the past few days, suddenly fell to the ground and used its pointed beak to nudge Yu Chongming's feet: Goddess, I don't want to leave!
Yu Chongming remained calm, even caring more about his shoes than it did about him: "Don't ruin my shoes, they were bought by the headmaster."
The crested ibis also realized who was in charge in this mountain. It twisted and turned on the ground, twisting a bird into a reptile, and then twisted itself to Lian Jiu's feet: "Can you not leave? I can catch insects for myself, I don't need you to feed me, and I can even take care of your cubs."
Lian Jiu thought of its stubborn behavior and was afraid that its cubs would be led astray.
"You should go back." Lian Jiu coaxed it with the tone he used to comfort a child, "There are more of your kind and companions out there."
The red-crowned crane's eyes were about to turn red: But there is no goddess outside.
Lien Jiu: "..."
Jiang An couldn't help but say, "Can you be more ambitious? You won't be able to have anything with Teacher Chongming if you stay here. If you go out, you might find other female birds to play with you."
The red-crowned crane said weakly: I just need to stay with her, nothing else is needed.
Su Caifeng was amazed: "What kind of love-brain is this? Didn't you say you would change?"
The red-crowned crane rolled twice on the ground: Everyone has to endure the pain of love, it can’t be changed, you don’t understand.
God damn, you don’t understand.
How dare you, a simple-minded bird, question the demon god? He's eaten more rice than you've shed!
Finally, Yu Chongming said, "Go out. I will come to see you later."
Crested Ibis: But...
"You can either choose to leave on your own and I'll come visit you later, or I'll send you off and kick you out."
!!!
That means we can’t even see each other!
The red-crowned crane rolled and crawled to its feet. Comparing the choice between seeing someone once and never seeing them again, it chose the former.
Before leaving, he took all the little bugs he had liked in the past few days to the goddess bird and said: You must come to see me. I will save one for you every day, and I will give them all to you when you come.
Yu Chongming, who was already used to eating human food, was almost impatient and his patience was about to run out: "I'll count to three, are you going to leave?"
Go! Go! Go!
The red-crowned crane shuddered and flew out with its wings flapping.
Halfway through the flight, I found that the terrifying person had not caught up with me. I turned around and saw that the person was still lingering behind me.
Lian Jiu looked at Si Lan doubtfully: "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Si Lan opened his palm: "Today's snack."
All the onlookers and demon gods: "..."
Lord God, could you please pick up your bag?
Finally getting his snacks for the day, Si Lan left contentedly. He took two steps and turned back: "I'll be back for dinner."
Lian Jiu waved his hand.
Si Lan took two more steps and turned back: "Goodbye."
Crested Ibis: ???
Why do I see a familiar shadow in this person?
Yuan Qing looked at Si Lan, who kept looking back, with confusion: "Why do I feel like Si Lan has become more and more nagging lately?"
"Yeah, yeah." Jiang An also nodded in agreement, "Before, whenever he was going somewhere, I could only see the back of his head."
How could there be a time like now where you can see someone's face every few steps, and he would even say goodbye to everyone.
There has been progress. He has started to be polite and respect the demon gods at the bottom of the food chain.
Su Caifeng touched his chin and said, "Why do I feel like I've seen him like this somewhere before?"
Gu Huai said with a half-smile: "Just look at the bird in front and you'll know."
All demon gods: "..."
One word reveals the secret.
But Si Lan did not accept the threat of "I'll count to three". Instead, every time he turned around, he could see her smiling and nodding and saying see you in the evening.
That's good, he thought.
I am different from that bird.
After the red-crowned crane was sent back, the base's experts conducted a full-body examination on it and found that its condition had indeed fully recovered and was even healthier, which amazed them.
Before being sent away, he would get excited when he saw two red-crowned cranes nesting at the base, but now he doesn't even look at them.
I really don't want to watch it anymore. I have seen the goddess bird, and it is different from these ordinary birds.
Experts tried to release the red-crowned crane back into the national park again, and found that it was completely different from the previous time. After returning to nature, it spread its wings and flew high, full of energy.
After observing for several days, this was the same, and everyone finally felt relieved.
Because this red-crowned crane has always attracted the attention of many netizens, experts have followed suit and opened a video account for it, called "The Love-Brained Red-Crowned Crane". Every day, there are special people in the park to observe it and film its movements.
Now the whole network knows that it has recovered well, and it is thanks to Fu Yushan.
After confirming the situation of the red-crowned crane, the director of the Forestry Bureau quickly fulfilled his promise and personally sent the certification of the National Wildlife Rescue Station to Si Lan, and made it public on the entire Internet.
The originally dilapidated and backward Fuyushan Mountain received recognition from the outside world for the first time and gained a symbol that completely belonged to it.
Lian Jiu thought about it and thought that the Monster Kindergarten account was specifically used for the kids, and sometimes it would post one or two irrelevant messages to promote other things.
Now that Fuyushan’s business is expanding, a clear division of labor is needed.
Gu Huai made great contributions to the rescue station, so she opened a new account and handed it over to Gu Huai and Jiang An to manage jointly.
Jiang An is a lucky animal. Although he is not as good as Gu Huai in treatment, he also has a healing effect.
Gu Huai will be returning to Kunlun Mountain soon, where there are more wild animals. He can then use this account to increase the visibility of the western region.
As for the other two areas, the decision can only be made after meeting the Demon God himself. At that time, the demon gods of the four demon worlds can share this account.
After preparing everything, Lian Jiu took a separate photo of the certification plate, posted it on the video account, and tagged the new account: Our new milestone in Fuyu Mountain @Yokai National Wildlife Rescue Station.
[Awesome! Has this suddenly become something I can't reach?]
I regret a thousand times every day that I didn't go to Fuyushan when the kindergarten didn't require a degree. Now all the graduate students and doctoral supervisors from prestigious universities are there. I'm not even worthy enough to carry their shoes.
My family, who would understand? I only came here to see the cute baby. Little did I know I would witness the miracle of a mountain.
I have to say, this is the first time I've seen leaders go to the countryside to help alleviate poverty. They've helped this place reach a level I never could have imagined.
[To put it bluntly, it's just a relief station, and the financial situation doesn't seem that good.]
[Have you forgotten the previously registered trademark, the Monster Group? A quick search on Qichacha reveals the legal representative is Si Lan.]
[The vegetables and fruits in the Yokai greenhouses at various supermarkets are selling like crazy right now, and you actually say their economic situation is bad?]
[To support so many people, we have to take it slow. At this point, it's already pretty good.]
It is indeed very good. In other poverty alleviation areas, sometimes the words sound very nice and the actions are very good.
But in reality, it’s just a new coat of paint on the outside of the old house to make it look like it’s been renovated.
It is said to boost the economy, but in reality many of them are only halfway done and then nothing happens.
Speaking of which, the only mountain that can broadcast such a big and substantial change live on the entire network for all viewers to see is Fuyu Mountain.
Not only have they grown vegetables, they have also set up a relief station and the surrounding areas.
Even sponsors are pouring in, with LK supporting them from behind.
All the teachers in the kindergarten have strong backgrounds and abilities, and their future is limitless.
The key point is that the quality is still high.
During the live broadcast the next day, Lian Jiu hung the certification plate under the school sign of the Monster Kindergarten from the beginning.
One is golden, and the other is handwritten on a wooden board. The comparison is not too shabby.
But Lian Jiu still placed the rescue station sign at the bottom and set off a small firework. The children and monsters around applauded enthusiastically.
[Suddenly I feel like this aid station isn't very prestigious, hahaha.]
[This group of people is so cute.]
I'm deeply moved, my family. When I first started following the kindergarten, Principal Lian Jiu and Si Lan were almost always the only people at the school gate. Now, there are so many more people around her.
[Yes, yes, I felt the same way. I even downloaded the screen recordings from before to compare them. I was really touched.]
Lian Jiu himself also had a feeling, and it was deeper than any other netizen.
When she first came to Fuyu Mountain alone, it was deserted and muddy all around due to the rain.
That school sign looked lonely.
But now the children are around, both the monster teachers and the human teachers are here, as well as the gradually awakening monster gods and the great monsters who will come to congratulate them...
These monsters and people actually made the lonely school sign look more warm.
She thought, it will get better.
Just as everyone was cheering and rejoicing, Xin Shang, who was sitting outside, suddenly shouted loudly, "Director, Director!"
Lian Jiu's heart tightened.
Xin Shang is in good health and knows not to speak during live broadcasts. The fact that he is so anxious now must mean something has happened.
Fortunately, the cameras of the two live broadcast rooms were focused on the school sign and the rescue station sign outside, and did not capture the Bai Xiong couple.
Lian Jiu immediately turned around and said to Yu Chongming and the other teachers, "Take the children to class."
Upon hearing this, Wang Shanqing and Wei Jingxuan quickly took action and brought the children in the small and medium classes back to the classroom in an orderly manner.
Several demon gods walked anxiously to the Bai Xiong couple.
Before Xin Shang could speak, Gu Huai said solemnly, "She's about to give birth."
[Help, help! This is the first time I've seen a panda give birth. Can this be live streamed?]
Please, please be safe.
[But who was that man who spoke just now? We've all seen male teachers in kindergarten before, and they don't seem to have that voice.]
[Is that important?! What's important is that Wan Rao is about to give birth! Please bless her.]
Without Gu Huai's instruction, Su Caifeng and Duan Zian carried Wan Rao to the delivery room specially prepared for her.
Since the mother cannot transform into human form now, there are many tools in the delivery room to relieve her pain.
Lian Jiu didn't understand any of this. Seeing Gu Huai, Dean Cheng and Wu Shanshan busying around, he had no choice but to stand in the corner and watch quietly, his heart in his throat.
Wan Rao was not in good condition when she first arrived at Fu Yu Mountain. Although she has been nursed back to health during this period and has gotten much better, she is a demon, and a pregnant demon at that. Her condition is inherently unstable, so the delivery process is still very worrying.
Although Dean Cheng has experience, it is only for the animal version of the panda. When it comes to monsters, he still has to rely on Gu Huai.
"We haven't started working on it yet," said Dean Cheng. "Normally, in our case, we might have to wait a while."
"Yeah." Gu Huai carefully checked Wan Rao's condition, his brows furrowed, but his voice and tone were much gentler than when he usually mocked others. "Raorao, it will be a difficult process, but believe me, I will ensure that your baby is born safely, okay?"
Wan Rao was in so much pain that she couldn't speak, or perhaps she had lost the ability to speak, and could only moan.
Xin Shang looked for a while and suddenly walked out.
When he came back, he had changed back into human form. His original form of Bai Xiong would make it inconvenient for him to move around and it would be difficult for him to take care of his wife.
As soon as he came in he said, "Sorry, Director."
Lian Jiu knew what he was apologizing for and immediately shook his head: "You are right, go take care of her."
Xin Shang walked anxiously to Wan Rao, sat down and squeezed her paw tightly: "It's okay, it will be fine in a while, I'm here."
Wan Rao nodded with sobs, twisting and turning in pain.
The barrage was shocked.
Although I know they treat pandas the same way they treat people, there are still differences between species. Especially at this time, how can we get so close to pandas?
Dean Cheng has no sense of propriety. Who is that man? How dare he pull the panda's paw? A panda could easily lose control right now. How could one person match its strength? Why not pull it away quickly?
But no matter how worried the comments were, no one in the video cared about the opinions of netizens.
Wan Rao is indeed very strong, but Xin Shang is also a demon, and he can endure it completely, even if it hurts a little, he can still bear it.
"It may take another six hours." Gu Huai said to Xin Shangdao, "You stay with her first."
Xin Shang nodded.
Lian Jiu couldn't help much, so he could only rely on some daily experience to ask: "Do you need me to make something to replenish her energy?"
Gu Huai: "Thank you for your help."
She followed Lian Jiu out of the room and said solemnly, "Director, could you please call Lord Si Lan back temporarily?"
"Si Lan?"
"Well, although she's recovered somewhat in Fuyu Mountain during this period, the time she spent in Kunlun Mountain before still had a certain impact on her early cub development." Gu Huai said seriously, "The reason we brought her here is because this is where the power of Lord Si Lan is omnipresent. He is the most powerful of the demon gods. If she can come here, the chances of Wan Rao giving birth safely will be greater."
At this moment, Si Lan is still in the human world.
Lian Jiu called him immediately after hearing this. Seeing this, Gu Huai's expression relaxed a little.
Si Lan came back quickly. Lian Jiu just happened to be carrying a bowl of fish soup when he saw him coming in from the door. He said happily, "You're back! Everyone's been waiting for you!"
Si Lan nodded: "How is it?"
"They say we'll have to wait for more than ten hours." Lian Jiu calculated according to the time calculation Gu Huai mentioned. "So it should be a long wait. Xin Shang is in there with us."
Si Lan came, but did not enter the room. Instead, he sat outside.
Gu Huai, who had returned with the herbs, paused when he saw this, then lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you."
In fact, she knew that this was not Si Lan's responsibility. Even a long time ago, Si Lan never asked or cared about the life and death of monsters or animals.
She didn’t understand before why Si Lan chose to come out and be the savior, because he didn’t care about anything, let alone humans.
But now I seem to understand a little, just like what Bai Ze said.
It seemed that the person he was going to save was not someone from the world, but Lian Jiu.
So when he came to Fuyu Mountain this time, the first person Gu Huai asked for help was Lian Jiu.
She knew that Lian Jiu was special, and she also knew over the past few days that Lian Jiu had a different status in Si Lan's eyes.
In the past, Gu Huai was not sure or would not ask Si Lan to come back.
But this time, she felt Lian Jiu could do it.
Sure enough, Si Lan came back.
Si Lan sat there and only hummed a word, but the divine power he released that enveloped the surroundings put every monster and demon god under great pressure.
His divine power has always been overbearing. Although it has disadvantages for the weak Wan Rao, its supporting and supplementing effects are greater. However, it is painful for other healthy monsters.
This is true for all demon gods, not to mention ordinary monsters.
Yu Chongming urgently shut down the live broadcast of the senior class because the little monsters in the kindergarten would be affected and would not be able to maintain their original form and would also be oppressed and uncomfortable.
So the school bus was sent to take the children home halfway through the class.
Several monster teachers who couldn't stand the pressure also temporarily left the school.
There were a few humans who were not in danger of changing into their original forms, but they could feel that the atmosphere around them seemed a bit suffocating and depressing, and they had to run away from time to time to get some fresh air.
Only Lian Jiu in the room showed no signs of abnormality. He was still feeding Wan Rao fish soup spoonful by spoonful to replenish her energy.
Xin Shang's forehead was covered in sweat. He wanted to take care of his wife, but due to the pressure of divine power, it was good enough that he could maintain his human form.
"I told you not to let the panda hold his hand all the time! Is that person injured?"
[If it hurts, won't you let go? Why are you so anxious?]
He looks like he's in a lot of pain, but he's trying to comfort Wan Rao. Could he be Wan Rao's former keeper?
"Get out." Gu Huai walked over and pulled Xin Shang aside. "You're worse than Director Lian Jiu."
Xin Shang shook his head stubbornly: "I want to accompany her."
Jiang An glanced at the Qilin outside and said, "In your current state, Gu Huai will have to rescue you first."
Hearing this, Wan Rao, who was in so much pain that she was blurry in consciousness, immediately let go of her hand. Subconsciously, she still didn't want her husband to get hurt, so she pushed him and said in animal language, "Get out, I can do it."
Xin Shang gritted his teeth, leaned over and gently hugged his wife: "I'll be back to accompany you soon."
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
Wan Rao actually let go of him? Did she know he was feeling unwell?
[If Wan Rao didn’t have a husband, I would…]
【Knocking on everything will only harm you. 】
In less than a minute, Xin Shang turned into his original form and ran back in a hurry, but because of the influence of divine power, his movements were still much slower. Even if he couldn't help, he had to stay.
Climbing to the door, Si Lan looked up.
Xin Shang thought he was worried about causing trouble, so he quickly said, "Lord God, I..."
But unexpectedly, Si Lan just said calmly: "Go in."
【Xin Shang is back again? 】
[Does it and that man take turns working? ]
This was the first time I saw a mother panda give birth, and there was a father panda beside her. And look at Xin Shang's movements, he looked like a human.
In any panda house anywhere, as long as a panda mother gives birth, she will be protected.
Because panda cubs are too fragile, if there are any other animals, they may not survive.
And humans will get hurt if they get close.
There was only the monster live broadcast room, and Lian Jiu was still sitting there with a worried look on his face, feeding soup to the panda mother.
After feeding the soup, Wan Rao's strength recovered a little and she rested for a while, but she kept getting tired and didn't start working until the evening.
Lian Jiu brought a bowl of soup and then prepared dinner for all the people working here and the demon gods.
Even if you are helping the white bear give birth, you still have to eat, after all, it will take a long time.
Wang Shanqing and Wei Jingxuan, who couldn't help, also helped her cook. Seeing Lian Jiu glance at the delivery room from time to time, they sighed, "Don't worry too much, Director. You look more tired and nervous than everyone else."
Lian Jiu couldn't calm down when he thought of Gu Huai saying that Wan Rao was in a bad condition, but he had better not tell these words to others, as this would cause panic among everyone.
I guess this is the reason why Gu Huai didn't say it in front of everyone.
"Don't worry." Lian Jiu smiled, "She will definitely give birth safely."
Originally, Gu Huai estimated it to take twelve hours, but until the early morning, Wan Rao showed no signs of giving birth and was in constant pain.
This made Dean Cheng, who had been taking notes, very anxious. He pulled Gu Huai outside and said, "Senior, is everything okay?"
"No." Gu Huai suppressed the irritation in his eyes, "You guys go and rest first, I'll be fine here."
Dean Cheng couldn't sleep at all, but after hearing Gu Huai's words, he felt reassured and retreated to the corner of the room to take notes.
With no one around, Gu Huai stood beside Si Lan and suddenly asked, "Is her blood still useful?"
Si Lan's eyes suddenly darkened, and the divine power around him began to fluctuate violently.
The demon gods in the room were startled and all ran out, but they saw Si Lan sitting there quietly, with nothing unusual.
Jiang An was most familiar with this kind of fluctuation. The last time she felt it was during the battle between humans and demons. She hesitated for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?"
Si Lan finally raised his head and said in a cold tone: "Not enough?"
"You know your divine power has side effects," Gu Huai said, "there is no other way."
Si Lan clenched his fingers together, veins bulging on the back of his hands, like a trapped beast.
Seeing this, Gu Huai also got the answer and turned around: "I'll go find her."
Si Lan stood up suddenly and said coldly, "Stop."
"Just one drop." Gu Huai said calmly, "One drop is enough, maybe she won't remember it."
From these few words, Jiang An also understood what they were saying.
Gu Huai wants Jiujiu's blood.
Si Lan's divine power is too overbearing. Without his divine power, Wan Rao's demonic power cannot be supported.
But because of this, the side effect is that Wan Rao is suppressed and unable to release her demonic power, making childbirth difficult.
In this case, only Jiujiu's blood and her saint blood can be integrated to alleviate the symptoms.
but……
Once Jiujiu knows this, she will realize that her blood has special effects and will probably recall things from the past, which are secondary.
If she behaves like before again... Si Lan will never be able to save her again.
Jiang An's face also turned pale and he was speechless for a moment.
Lian Jiu saw everyone running out and thought something had happened, so he followed them out and asked, "What happened to you?"
"Director..."
Before Gu Huai could finish his words, Si Lan interrupted him: "Gu Huai."
Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Lian Jiu turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Si Lan." Gu Huai was a little angry, his voice slightly raised. "You can care about nothing, yes, you have always been like this, not caring about anything, but what about others! Can you please not be so selfish!"
Lian Jiu frowned slightly: "Si Lan doesn't care about other people."
Gu Huai smiled: "Director, you don't understand him, right? If it weren't for you, would he have come back?"
Lian Jiu was confused, but she understood that Gu Huai was saying that Si Lan came back because of her call. She raised her head and said firmly, "Yes."
What Gu Huai was about to say was suddenly stuck.
Si Lan's pupils shrank slightly, and he slowly looked at Lian Jiu beside him.
"He'll come back no matter who attacks him," Lian Jiu said. "Willn't he be able to defend Fuyu Mountain on his own even without me?"
Gu Huai took a deep breath, turned his head away and stopped talking.
Lian Jiu turned his head and knew clearly that their conflict this time was because of him, but because of Si Lan, he didn't say it out loud.
She looked up at Si Lan: "So what happened?"
Her figure was reflected in Si Lan's dark eyes. The person standing in front of him was a living person, the one he had always hoped and longed for.
But no matter how many times she does it again, it seems like she will always go down the same path.
The path that he despised and was tired of was her firm choice every time, just like when she chose to stay in Fuyu Mountain.
It was like this every time. He never wanted to be an obstacle to her. He was powerless and helpless. It had always been like this.
After a long while, Si Lan stared at her and said hoarsely, "They need your blood."
Lian Jiu was stunned.
