Chapter 42: Everyone eats in the Beast World!
The professor from the Wildlife Conservation Alliance, standing nearby, stared at the wolf cub in Yuanyuan's arms and the little green dog on her wrist, his face flushed with excitement.
"My God! It really is the White Wolf!"
"And this...this winged snake that looks like a green mamba, am I dreaming? Quick, pinch me."
The professor next to him pinched him hard without any politeness, but he wasn't angry. He just laughed and said, "Ouch, ouch."
"I wasn't dreaming."
The big shots were making quite a show of themselves, and the nurses at the nurses' station were all secretly peeking in. If this floor hadn't been sealed off, they would have been surrounded by other patients' families long ago.
Yuanyuan frowned and tugged at Uncle Gu's sleeve.
"Uncle, let's go back first!"
She was afraid that so many people would disturb her mother's rest.
Gu Zheng understood and stepped forward to say to the group of big shots, "Please don't disturb the patient's rest here."
"Yes, yes, we were too impatient!"
They were mainly excited to see the mammoths and several kinds of plants they had never seen before on the tablet.
Yuanyuan glanced at her mother, who was still in shock on the hospital bed, and whispered, "Uncle Gu, let's go back."
She looked up at the bigwigs and said, "There are too many people here, it will disturb my mother."
"good."
"Okay, okay! We'll go right away!" Before Gu Zheng could speak, the others automatically chimed in.
Yuanyuan whispered in her mother's ear, "Mom, I have to go back first. I'll come back to be with you when I'm done. Uncle Gu will arrange for someone to keep watch over you here, so no one can bother you."
Xia Zhiyun nodded blankly. When did her daughter get to know so many big shots?
I've seen several of them on TV; they're all important national figures.
Yuanyuan picked up the little wolf and followed Uncle Gu and a group of big shots out of the ward.

Forestry Bureau Meeting Room
Yuanyuan took out a mammoth tusk from her spatial storage; the enormous tusk occupied the entire conference table.
"Oh My God!"
The archaeological expert, an elderly professor, kept circling around the ivory, his gloved hands constantly touching it.
"It was worth it, even if I die now."
"Xiao Li, hurry up and scrape off the blood that hasn't clotted yet and take it for testing."
The old professor was itching to take pictures, and finally couldn't resist pulling out his phone and snapping away.
I took a few close-up shots and posted them to the core group of the archaeological community.
"I even got to touch fresh mammoth ivory."
At first, no one responded; it took a full two minutes before anyone started to chime in.
"Mr. Meng, are you addicted to photoshopping?"
"It must have been tough on your assistant to Photoshop so many pictures at once."
"I almost believed it, Mr. Meng, you've gone a bit too far."
"If you're going to take pictures, take pictures of things that have just been unearthed. This one looks so new, it's obviously fake."
"Old Meng, send me your location. I'm driving over there now to expose you!"
Professor Meng glanced at his phone, a smirk almost reaching his ears: "You're all just jealous! Just wait, I'll show you for yourself!"
Then he posted a video of himself posing with a mammoth, which accidentally captured other big shots in the video.
After sending the message, he turned off his phone without waiting for anyone else to react, and within a minute his phone was ringing off the hook.
The professor from the Wildlife Conservation Alliance, also watching the wolf cub in Yuanyuan's arms and the snake on her wrist, coaxed softly, "Yuanyuan, can you let them lie down by themselves so Grandpa can take a picture?"
"all right!"
After communicating with the little wolf and the little snake, Yuanyuan placed them on a low table to the side.
A group of septuagenarians and octogenarians were taking photos in various poses with their phones.
The little wolf was being watched by a group of people. It shrank back towards the table, its little tail twitching nervously.
The little snake raised its head and flapped its tiny, transparent wings, which appeared even more translucent under the white light.
Professor Li took a group photo and posted it on his WeChat Moments: "The extinct white wolf and the legendary winged snake, alive!"
He never posts on WeChat Moments, and the comment section exploded the moment he did.
"Am I seeing things? Did Mr. Li post on WeChat Moments?"
"It's probably been hacked. Mr. Li, if your account has been hacked, please send another message."
"Even Old Li is playing with AI."
"How could AI be this powerful? This can't be real." "How is that possible? I think this white wolf is a Samoyed mix."
"Didn't anyone notice how beautiful that snake was?"
Professor Li was so angry that his eyes distorted when no one believed him after he rarely posted on WeChat Moments.
...
Gu Zheng clapped his hands. "Everyone, calm down."
No one responded the first time, mainly because they were so excited that they automatically blocked out other noises.
Gu Zheng wasn't annoyed, and simply said, "Yuanyuan also brought mammoth meat."
The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this.
They all turned to look at Yuanyuan.
Yuanyuan took out the mammoth thigh and other pieces of meat from her spatial storage.
A small pile of meat was stacked on the floor covered with rubber mats. Yuanyuan blinked.
"Uncle Gu, shall we eat this today? It's super delicious."
Gu Zheng: "..."
She then looked at the group of elderly men and women, "It's really delicious."
"No, no, no! You can't eat this!"
Professor Meng swallowed hard, his eyes filled with a mixture of greed and fear as he stared at the meat: "Yuanyuan, mammoths are extinct prehistoric animals, ten thousand times more valuable than first-class protected animals. Even taking a single bite would be a serious violation of the law. We dare not touch them!"
Professor Li nodded in agreement, pointing to the wolf cub: "Look, the wolf cub is an extinct white wolf. We wouldn't even dare touch it, let alone eat the meat of a prehistoric animal!"
Yuanyuan was stunned. "Huh? But in the beast world, everyone eats!"
She looked down at the little wolf in her arms, who was also staring at the meat and swallowing hard. "The little wolf eats too."
"..."
Gu Zheng smiled and patted her head. "The rules in the Beast World are different from ours. The meat you brought is too precious. It needs to be tested and studied first. You absolutely cannot eat it."
"Wouldn't it be a waste to bring back food that can't be eaten?"
"It won't be wasted."
He turned to the staff and said, "Quickly seal the meat and do component testing, and the same goes for the herbs. Take samples of each one for testing."
Yuanyuan thought that maybe they were afraid to cook it, so she took out a piece of roasted meat from her space that was bigger than her face.
"I have some grilled food here, would you like some? If not, I'll eat it myself."
She was a little hungry.
The meat was still warm when it was taken out of the room, and the aroma of meat filled the room, making many people swallow their saliva.
Even Gu Zheng couldn't help but glance at the meat.
Lu Yuan, who was next to her, whispered to her, "Yuanyuan, secretly let your uncle have a taste."
He was really craving it; he couldn't stop craving it when he was looking at the tablet.
Yuanyuan tore off a piece of meat with a golden-brown, fragrant crust, still steaming.
Yuanyuan handed him the roasted meat, then took out a piece for herself, opened her little mouth and took a big bite. Oil smeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said indistinctly, "It smells so good, Uncle, you should eat it!"
Lu Yuan grabbed the grilled meat and moved to a corner like a thief. As soon as he took a bite, his eyes widened instantly. It was indeed delicious.
The meat is firm and juicy, with a unique fresh aroma, better than any meat he has ever eaten!
Just as he was about to take another bite, he heard a cough behind him: "Lu Yuan, what are you doing?"
