Chapter 112
Two o'clock in the morning, in the northwest corner of the second service area.
The sound of "clang clang clang" was small and abrupt.
The mastiff drank too much water and got up in the middle of the night to urinate. It did not disturb the actors who slept in the same room with it, nor did it urinate in the indoor war beast toilet. It went outside and found a bush to urinate.
After lifting its hind legs to urinate, it was about to go back, but was attracted by the "clang clang" sound on the right.
The tip of its nose twitched, and the mastiff sniffed and walked over there, then jumped out of the tall bushes.
"Haha!" As soon as it jumped out, the mastiff was roared by a small beast with a black body and a white back.
The mastiff took a step back, sticking out its tongue, and looked at the small animal.
It sees others as small animals, and others see it as a small animal as well.
The black-clawed badger stared at the puppy in front of it arrogantly.
Yes, the pupil structure of the honey badger is different from that of other animals. The eyes of the honey badger are like a concave lens. All animals appear very small in their eyes.
Since no matter how big the animal is, it is a tiny thing in my eyes, then how can I be afraid of you?
The honey badger will not be afraid, and the black-clawed badger, the evolved species of the honey badger, will not be afraid either.
Although the loyal dog had never seen this little beast, but was naturally enthusiastic, he still wagged his tail at the black-clawed badger. The
black-clawed badger looked at the puppy vigilantly, and when he saw that it did not provoke him without knowing it, he turned his head and continued to dig the hole.
The bushes are not just grass and trees. There is also a circle of wooden fences inside the bushes. These bushes were transplanted here. Mu Ling was afraid that animals would trample on them and flatten them, so she buried wooden fences inside to fix their positions.
The wooden fences are not very high, only about one meter, but they are a bit troublesome for the short black-clawed badger.
So, the badger, who was born with a pair of sharp claws, dug a hole directly below, intending to dig through the fence and get through.
"Woof!" At this time, the panting mastiff stood up directly, then lowered his head and started digging a hole with a "clang clang" sound.
The badger ignored the mastiff.
However, after proving that he also had a strong ability to dig holes, the mastiff took the initiative to go over and help the badger dig a hole.
Black-clawed badger: “?”
“Swish, swish, swish!” The cheerful puppy dug more vigorously than the badger. After a while, the hole that was half dug was dug through.
The black-clawed badger "swished" and went straight through. The mastiff stretched its head to sniff and found that the hole was only big enough for its claws to pass through, but not its body.
So it shook off the mud on its head, jumped up, and jumped into the bushes again.
"Woof!" After jumping in, the dog barked at the badger again, then walked forward with its tail wagging, signaling the badger to follow it.
But the black-clawed badger ran in another direction.
The mastiff hurried to chase it, blocked the badger, and barked again: "Woof!"
Not here.
The black-clawed badger was a little annoyed, and rushed over to catch the mastiff!
The mastiff didn't expect it to attack him, so he quickly backed away.
The road ahead was cleared, and the black-clawed badger continued to run forward. After a while, it ran outside a glass house.
Looking inside the glass house, there was the sleeping Pin Yahu, wrapped like a mummy.
The black-clawed badger suddenly jumped up and slapped the glass, grinning, trying to wake up Pin Yahu.
The mastiff followed quietly from behind, sitting on the ground, looking at the black-clawed badger's actions in confusion.
At this time, other animals were also awakened by the two previous dog barkings.
The first to come out was the actor, who was naturally the most sensitive to the sound of loyalty.
Next came the high-armored deer.
Because the giraffe is too tall, it usually doesn't like to go indoors. Unless it rains, it sleeps outside. King Kong also slowly moved over at this time.
After a while, five or six war beasts directly surrounded the uninvited guest, the black-clawed badger.
The badger ignored them at all. It started digging the soil again, trying to dig through the bottom of the glass and drill into Pin Yahu's house.
"Gah!!!"
At this time, Tayun, who had half of his wings crippled, was also caught out by Shan Dian. Seeing the familiar little flat-headed guy, Tayun was so angry that he wanted to go up and fight with the little flat-headed guy!
As a result, its center of gravity was unstable and it couldn't fly. "Pah", it fell off Shan Dian's back.
Shan Dian went over and licked Tayun's hair. Tayun stood up with difficulty and rushed to the black-clawed badger on his two feet.
After all, eagles are also very vengeful animals!
The black-clawed badger can get used to it. The social flat-headed brother made a sharp "Gaha" sound directly from his mouth, and stopped digging the pit and beat the chicken away first!
As a result, just as it was about to pass by, the Qilin who came out with the lightning suddenly shouted: "Roar!"
The angry tiger roar attracted the attention of the badger. The badger immediately turned his gun and attacked the Qilin first!
The Qilin was experienced in fighting. When the badger came up, he pressed his claws on the badger's back...
The noisy sound outside also woke up Xuehua and Meihua.
Meihua sniffed the air with her nose, then she stood up and walked to the glass window.
After looking outside for a while, Meihua suddenly went around the door and called out: "Awooo——"
The sudden interruption of the call by the Wind Chaser Wolf attracted the attention of other animals.
The Black Claw Badger also saw Meihua at this time. The badger was stunned at first, and then it broke free from Qilin's claws and ran a few steps towards Meihua.
It stopped after running only a few steps because it had smelled that it was indeed Meihua.
The badger turned around and suddenly stopped fighting. It walked towards the bushes when it came.
The other animals did not stop it, but Meihua suddenly picked up a snack of roast chicken in the food bowl, rushed out in a hurry, blocked the Black Claw Badger, spit out the roast chicken, and pushed it to it.
The badger refused to eat the food offered by the mother wolf. It had a stern face, like a cold-blooded criminal.
Meihua left after putting the roast chicken, and returned to the glass house. She walked around the wolf cubs twice, sat down, and licked them.
The black-clawed badger walked around the roasted chicken and came to the edge of the cave. It looked back at the animals inside, then went into the cave and left the service area.
The little flat-head left, the hustle and bustle died down, and the animals began to walk back in twos and threes and went back to sleep.
The next day, at 7:30 in the morning.
Mu Ling took off the earplugs recommended by Dr. Bree, and after a simple wash, the first thing she did was to go out of the veterinary station and go next door to see Pin Yahu.
Pin Yahu Doubao had already woken up, but it was probably very uncomfortable because it was wrapped in too many bandages. Two of the bandages had been bitten off by it.
Mu Ling became anxious when she saw this, and hurriedly put on protective clothing while going forward to open the door and go in.
But at this moment...
"Bang!"
"Ouch!"
With a scream from the girl, she fell to the ground and fell flat on her face!
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling was a little confused. She got up in a daze and turned to look at her feet. Then she found: "Why is there a hole here!"
On the other side, Xiang Bie just came down from the second floor and saw Xiaobao passing by with a half-eaten roast chicken in his mouth. He frowned and was about to look again when he heard Mu Ling's voice from a distance.
He walked over quickly and saw that Mu Ling had fallen down. He pulled her up and said with a sullen face: "What happened?"
Mu Ling felt aggrieved. She complained directly: "I don't know who dug the hole. I didn't see it!"
Xiang Bie looked at the hole and noticed that both of Mu Ling's hands were scratched. He said: "Take care of it first."
Mu Ling had no choice but to go back to the veterinary station to clean the wound.
After cleaning, she turned around and saw that Brother Xiang had opened the medical kit and was taking apart the alcohol cotton. He said: "Come here."
Mu Ling paused for a moment, but still walked over slowly.
Xiang Bie grabbed one of her hands and applied medicine to her.
Wei Li came down a little later than Brother Xiang. As a result, when he just came down and hadn't approached the veterinary station, he saw Brother Xiang and the director holding hands in the veterinary station!
Wei Li: "!!!!"
He rubbed his eyes and looked again!
Oh, I saw it wrong, they are bandaging it!
Wei Li hurried over and asked in confusion: "What happened?"
Mu Ling told him about the pit at the next door. Wei Li went out to take a look and saw it. He said: "Who dug it? Let me check the surveillance."
Wei Li clicked on the surveillance, and he was stunned. What happened in the service area last night... was so exciting.
Wei Li threw the surveillance into the air and shared it with Brother Xiang and the director. After watching it, Mu Ling was also surprised: "The black-clawed badger actually came last night, but it didn't come for Tayun, but for Doubao? And how did Meihua know it?" The
surveillance saw that Mu Ling was confused. After her hand was bandaged, she went out to see Pin Yahu again.
However, in just a short while, Pin Yahu had bitten another bandage loose.
Mu Ling: "..."
Xiang Bie said at this time: "I'll go get a bite-proof collar."
Xiang Bie quickly went to the warehouse to get a bite-proof collar. Mu Ling also put on protective clothing at this time, and the two went in together to put the collar on Doubao.
But how could Pin Yahu let them wear it obediently.
When Pin Yahu saw someone coming in, he immediately tried to stand up vigilantly, but many bones in his body were broken and too much plaster was applied, causing his limbs to be very stiff. Not to mention standing, he couldn't even move.
Pin Yahu couldn't move, so he could only bark and roar!
But if you can't move, what's the use of just shouting.
Mu Ling winked at Brother Xiang, and the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, took advantage of its illness to kill it. Relying on the fact that Pin Yahu couldn't get around, they were quick to put the collar on it from behind!
Pin Yahu didn't like the circle very much. It shook its head hard to get rid of it.
It also wanted to use its two front paws to scrape the circle off, but its two front paws were harder than sticks and not flexible at all. It slipped as soon as it scraped.
In the end, after struggling for a long time, it got nothing. Pin Yahu, who felt that he had been abused, could only vent his anger on the two humans, baring his teeth at them frequently, and his brown beast eyes were filled with anger.
Seeing that it was too stressed, Mu Ling and Xiang Bie could only leave the room first and look at it through the one-way glass.
Wei Li came over and muttered, "Looking at its temper, it seems to get along well with the flat-headed brother. No wonder the flat-headed brother is worried about it and came to see it.
" Xiang Bie frowned, "They are not necessarily friends."
At least from the video alone, it is not clear whether the butcher is here to seek revenge or to find a relative.
Mu Ling pondered for a moment and said, "The butcher knows Doubao, and the butcher knows Meihua. Then will Meihua and Doubao also know each other? Let's go and ask Meihua."
Wei Li looked confused, "Ah? How to ask?"
Mu Ling did not answer and went straight to Meihua's room.
Meihua was feeding the wolf cub at this time. After Mu Ling went in, she sat over and gently stroked the giant wolf's head.
Meihua allowed Mu Ling to caress her meekly. During this time, she had become very familiar with Mu Ling.
Mu Ling waited until Meihua had finished feeding the baby, then she touched the baby again, and then ran away with a wolf cub in her arms! Meihua
: “…”
Meihua: “???”
Meihua was shocked. She had never expected that Mu Ling, who had retired from the underworld, would come back to the underworld again!
She then quickly chased after Mu Ling and wanted to bring the wolf cub back.
Mu Ling protected the wolf cub and ran very fast all the way until she ran outside Pin Yahu's room.
She opened the door and stood at the door herself.
Pin Yahu was very angry when he saw this human dare to come back, and roared at her again: "Roar! Roar!"
At this time, Meihua also chased after her. Meihua immediately became very nervous when she heard the tiger roar. When it came over and saw Doubao, the black fur of the chasing wind mother wolf immediately seemed to explode. Then, it immediately pressed down its upper body and roared at Doubao from a distance: "Ao!"
Doubao was originally roaring at Mu Ling, but this time it roared directly at Meihua!
Meihua was a little afraid of Doubao in the end.
It tucked its tail between its legs and hid beside Mu Ling, then raised its head to lick its own wolf cub.
Mu Ling let it lick her, so Meihua took the wolf cub in her mouth and ran away. When she ran, her tail was still tucked between her legs, which showed that she was really afraid of Doubao.
Mu Ling looked at Meihua's back, then turned to look at Pin Yahu who was still angry in the room.
After a while, Mu Ling suddenly turned to look at Brother Xiang.
Brother Xiang looked at her, nodded, and went to the side to make a call.
Wei Li looked at this, then at that, and was stunned: "What's wrong? What's wrong? Did you talk just now? Why didn't I hear anything?"
Mu Ling said: "No one talked, it's just that we all thought of one thing."
Wei Li asked: "What is it?"
"The culprit who caused Meihua's difficult birth seems to have not been found yet."
Xiang Bie finished the call quickly. He put down the computer and walked back, and said to Mu Ling: "Nina said that she didn't see clearly who scared Meihua, but Doubao did appear nearby during that time."
Then Xiang Bie said: "When I checked before, I also found traces of Doubao there, but..."
Mu Ling continued: "But you didn't think it would be Doubao, right?"
Xiang Bie frowned and said nothing.
No one doubted Doubao, and the main reason was that Doubao often wandered in the central area between the inner and outer areas.
Doubao was the only war beast that did not enter the service area but was often photographed by tourists.
Doubao was not very averse to people, and unlike other war beasts that liked to occupy a habitat alone and endure the pain brought by nerve damage alone, Doubao did not like to eat without suffering.
Doubao did not like hunting or being alone. He liked to eat ready-made food. In order to eat ready-made food, he would appear at the first feeding point at the junction of the inner and outer areas every three days, because he wanted to eat the first batch of the freshest food.
After eating, he would stroll around nearby. Because he often strolled, the keepers and tourists could often see him, but no one had ever associated him with Meihua.
Everyone subconsciously thinks that no matter how lonely Doubao is, he is still an injured and retired war beast. He will not approach other animals enthusiastically.
But judging from Meihua's reaction just now, it is obvious that Meihua and Doubao know each other, and Meihua is still very afraid of it.
Mu Ling felt that she was very close to the truth. She asked Xiang Bie: "Brother Xiang, do you know where Doubao's habitat is?"
Although Doubao likes to wander there, that area is not its real habitat, just the canteen.
Xiang Bie said: "I know."
Mu Ling said: "Then why don't you go to its habitat and see if you can find anything else."
Xiang Bie said "hmm", turned around and left.
After Xiang Bie left, Mu Ling and Brother Wei fed the war beasts food and medicine, and she also had to patch up the bandages on Doubao.
Patching the bandage is a hassle, Doubao almost swollen Mu Ling's back from scolding her.
Mu Ling didn't dare to force it, for fear that it would get too excited and break other wounds.
After thinking for a while, Mu Ling finally gave it one-third of Meihua's premium confinement meals, hoping to coax it.
The big rice bowl was mixed with confinement meals, animal food, canned food, and a large portion of meat soup.
Mu Ling pushed the rice bowl over with a stick, and then planned to get up and leave. She felt that Doubao would definitely not eat it if she was here.
As a result, before she took back the stick...
"Awooo Awooo Awooo!" The big tiger with darker hair color, not golden but a little orange, has already started chewing breakfast in big mouthfuls.
Mu Ling: "..."
Doubao chewed two big mouthfuls of meat, licked some meat soup, and ate it up in a flash, as if he hadn't eaten for eight lifetimes. In less than two minutes, only half of the bowl was left.
Mu Ling: "?"
Mu Ling was stunned: "Oh my god, you have a really good appetite. Among so many war beasts, you are the one who doesn't worry about eating the least."
Other war beasts need to be coaxed and persuaded to eat. When encountering those who hate eating, Mu Ling really can't sleep all night, and even in her dreams she is thinking about how to get the child to eat a few more bites.
As a result, Doubao directly showed off two servings!
"You love to eat so much, you must not have any psychological burden, right? Your damage value must be very low, right?" Mu Ling took advantage of Doubao's good mood, and as soon as it finished eating, she immediately bandaged it and tested its damage value.
Mu Ling has bought the most advanced instrument for testing damage value, which is equipped with a handheld device. There is no need to let the war beast sit on the cushion. The test is done by sticking to the wire.
Put the handheld device directly on the war beast's buttocks, and it can be done with one click.
I have to say, it's expensive for a reason.
After the test, the results will not come out until an hour later. During
this hour, other people also came, Nurse Xiaoyan came to work, and other employees also started to replenish the goods on the second floor.
An hour later, Mu Ling looked at Doubao's test report, but was stunned: "77%, not low."
The damage value is obviously not low, but it seems that Doubao is indeed a bit heartless and likes to eat more than Jiupin Pig.
Mu Ling was a little dazed: "Although he is seriously ill, he must not miss a meal. Otherwise, he will not be full. How can he defeat the disease, right?"
-Xiang
specially came back two hours later.
At this time, Mu Ling was leading people to fill the hole dug by the butcher last night. After filling the hole, they pulled out a shrub, cut the wooden fence at that place, and opened it directly into a movable door.
In this way, the butcher will not have to dig a hole to come in next time. He can come in directly through the door.
Mu Ling said that she was afraid of the dark society, but she couldn't do anything to keep animals out.
Seeing Brother Xiang coming back, Mu Ling asked everyone to rest after finishing the work, and then followed Brother Xiang to the other side to ask about the situation: "How is it, did you find anything?"
Xiang Bie took out two bags and threw them on the ground.
Mu Ling looked at the two bags and was stunned: "What is this?"
Xiang Bie pointed to the bag on the left: "We found it in Doubao's cave. In order to protect the fetuses of the three female wolves, two months ago, we put some extra food to protect the fetus near the wolf habitat. After the birth, we also put some food to nourish milk production. As a result, Doubao stole a lot of it."
Mu Ling: "..."
Xiang Bie pointed to another bag and said, "I went to see it today and found out that the cave where Doubao lived is very close to the col last night. It comes out from a fork in the road, with the col on the left and the cave on the right. This was found above the col, a dead chicken. There are very few mosquitoes and insects on its body and it is not very rotten. It must have been dead for no more than half a day. Look
at the wound on the chicken's neck." Mu Ling looked carefully at the wound on the chicken's neck, and then was stunned: "Was it bitten to death by a butcher?"
Black-clawed badgers like to eat venomous snakes. They eat venomous snakes like eating spicy strips. If a large beast bites a chicken to death, it's done, but the black-clawed badger bit half of the chicken's neck as if it were a spicy strip. The wound is very recognizable.
Xiang Bie said: "When we took Doubao and the others away last night, the butcher should have been nearby."
Mu Ling looked at the dead chicken and guessed: "Not only was he nearby, he might have gone there to deliver food to them."
Looking at the two bags, combined with last night's video, Mu Ling roughly knew what was going on.
Doubao likes to eat. When he discovered that there were a lot of delicious food near the wolf pack's habitat, he began to steal people's nutritional supplements.
He stole a lot and was naturally discovered by the wolf pack.
But he was a tiger, or a war beast. The wolf pack were all ordinary wolves, and there was no alpha wolf to lead them, so they naturally didn't dare to provoke him, and were oppressed and exploited by him.
Judging from how afraid Meihua was of Doubao, Doubao probably didn't steal, but might have directly snatched people's pregnancy-preserving meals.
On the day when Meihua gave birth prematurely, it was most likely Doubao that she saw. If Meihua had not developed a fear over a long period of time, she would not have slid down the hillside in fear when she saw the animal in the bushes.
Seeing Meihua rolling down the hillside, Doubao was probably also scared, so he ran away.
Because he ran fast, Nina did not find him.
But later, Doubao was still greedy and came back to continue stealing food, and this behavior of stealing food even continued after Geyagena gave birth.
Look at the milk-producing meal in the bag, isn't this the stolen baby meal of Geyagena!
Mu Ling was almost angry to death when she thought of this.
"It's quite smart. It has been committing crimes for so long, and no one has discovered it!"
Xiang Bie said, "It is a war beast after all."
Mu Ling got even angrier: "The little anti-detection skills it learned were all used to steal food!" Xiang Bie
said, "Thieves are not scary, but thieves with culture are scary."
Mu Ling: "..."
Xiang Bie said again, "But it got its comeuppance."
Mu Ling looked at the bag of dead chickens again: "Yes, it got its comeuppance. It met the butcher."
Doubao went to eat the wolf pack's food every day. After a long time, the wolf pack tolerated it, but a jealous grandfather couldn't stand it. Xiang Bie
said, "There are still a lot of footprints left in the muddy ground. Doubao should have been chased by the butcher, and accidentally hit and fell into the valley."
Then what happened next is easy to guess.
Doubao fell down the mountain. Tayun was flying on the mountain. He smelled blood and looked over there. He saw that the B-class Asian Tiger was injured. He came back to find help and found Lightning. Then he took Lightning into the ditch.
Lightning also fell down the mountain, but he was not injured. After all, S-class is more agile. But the butcher was probably at the bottom of the mountain. The butcher was afraid that Doubao was dead and was probably accompanying Doubao. Tayun thought that the butcher wanted to hurt Doubao, so he attacked the butcher. The butcher slapped him, and Tayun's wings could not fly.
After that, the butcher didn't want to fight with them, so he ran away. But at night, the butcher still took the chicken to feed them.
But by then, Mu Ling and the others had already taken the animals under the mountain away.
So the butcher followed them all the way.
After arriving at the park, the butcher went straight to Doubao.
Now think about it, it hit the glass and dug the hole because it saw Doubao was wrapped like a mummy and thought he was dead, so it wanted to go in and take a look.
Later, Meihua came out to give the butcher a chicken, and the butcher left.
Because the butcher knew that there were too many animals here, if he wanted to see Doubao, he had to beat all these animals down, but he didn't want to beat Meihua, so he left.
And from Meihua's behavior of giving the butcher a chicken, it can be seen that she had received the butcher's favor before.
It is estimated that Doubao had been caught by the butcher before when he stole things, and the butcher helped the wolf pack drive Doubao away.
Thinking of this, Mu Ling sighed again: "Although it looks a bit reckless, our butcher is a good badger."
Xiang Bie frowned at this time: "It is too rational."
The behavior of protecting pregnant and lactating female wolves is not the habit of the black claw badger itself. "Protecting weak animals" is taught in the war beast academy.
However, war beasts with severe nerve damage have long forgotten this acquired knowledge. Even if they still remember it, it will definitely not be as clear as the butcher's thinking.
Mu Ling understood what Brother Xiang meant. She was silent for a moment and said, "Come to think of it, aren't black-clawed badgers immune to all poisons? The poison of venomous snakes and scorpions can't hurt them, so the poison of the alien virus will have limited damage to them, right?"
The natural talent of war beasts can resist the toxins of alien beasts, that is, even if war beasts are bitten by alien beasts, they will not be infected. This is the same as humans. If humans are bitten, they will not be infected. It's just that the nerves of war beasts are not as strong as human nerves. If war beasts are injured too badly, the alien virus enters the brain and destroys the nervous layer. Even if the toxins are metabolized quickly, the damage to the nervous layer is irreversible.
That's why war beasts suffer nerve damage and are forced to retire.
What Mu Ling meant now was that she believed that the Black Claw Badger was only slightly injured at the nervous level from the beginning, so even if it was retired with the same nerve damage, its condition was not serious, so these operations were carried out.
Xiang Bie pondered for a moment and shook his head: "I haven't heard of this before."
The Butcher is not the only retired Black Claw Badger. If the Black Claw Badger's injury degree is different from that of other war beasts, the Veterinary Association would not be unaware of it.
Mu Ling hesitated for a moment and said: "We have to think of a way to trick the Butcher over and measure its damage value."
Xiang Bie looked at her: "How to trick?"
"Will it not protect pregnant women?" Mu Ling touched her belly at this time: "Do you think I am pretending to be a pregnant woman? Will it believe it?"
Xiang Bie: "?"
