Chapter 26 Let them live together
Ye Yunian, who had been separated in two pens, suddenly appeared in front of him. Song Yi was obviously stunned for a second, and then he bleated excitedly.
Ye Yunian buried his head in Song Yi's scarf, rubbing his face vigorously, and making humming sounds.
More than half a month, more than half a month, Ye Yunian finally got close to Song Yi again.
The plush teddy bear is so comfortable!
Ye Yunian hugged Song Yi's neck with both arms and refused to let go.
Song Yi was bleating while carefully sniffing the scent of Ye Yunian in front of him. Song Yi
still remembered what happened on the day he and Ye Yunian came to the base. He knew that after he fainted, the little bear carried him forward.
Although Song Yi had confirmed through the smell that the little bear was healthy and his weight did not cause any problems for Ye Yunian, he was still a little worried without checking it himself.
After checking Ye Yunian's whole bear from head to toe, Song Yi finally felt relieved.
Ye Yunian also thought of this after Song Yi nudged him with his face to check him, and he nudged Song Yi with his head. After
being with Ye Yunian for so long, Song Yi also understood the meaning of some of Ye Yunian's actions.
For example, now, he just wanted him to sit down.
In the few days when Song Yi was just injured, Ye Yunian used this action to nudge him to sit down every day.
Song Yi's anesthesia had not completely worn off yet, and after standing for a while, his legs were indeed a little weak, so he followed Ye Yunian's wishes and sat on the ground in the enclosure.
As soon as he sat down, Ye Yunian couldn't wait to lean over and began to check Song Yi's wounds.
Ye Yunian saw that Song Yi's entire belly and chest hair were shaved cleanly. On the clean white belly, four shocking suture wounds were particularly conspicuous.
The longest wound stretched all the way to Song Yi's chest. Although the stitches had been removed, the wound was still wrapped with a layer of gauze.
In other words, the deepest wound that almost took Song Yi's life has not yet fully recovered.
Ye Yunian felt a little distressed and raised his head and licked Song Yi's head with his tongue.
The wound must be very painful.
Thank you for following me for so long during those days when you were most injured. You have worked so hard.
Ye Yunian felt more and more distressed and kept whining at Song Yi.
Then he stuck out his tongue and began to tidy up Song Yi's fur.
Song Yi did not move, and sat there obediently, allowing Ye Yunian to lick his fur.
He looked very energetic, but the whole bear had lost a lot of weight.
Didn't he eat seriously!
Ye Yunian became a little angry while licking his fur. He would remind Apple Bear next door every day to eat well, what's wrong with this panda!
Why doesn't he eat well!
Doesn't he understand panda language!
Thinking of this, Ye Yunian stopped licking Song Yi's fur, and stood up to drag bamboo to the side.
Even though it was the season without bamboo shoots, there were still quite a few at the base.
Because Song Yi was injured and needed nutrition, the keeper prepared twice as many bamboo shoots for Song Yi every day as Ye Yunian did, and also added four extra apples and wowotou.
Ye Yunian dragged all the bamboo shoots over, and then took the apples and wowotou and stuffed them directly into Song Yi's hands.
Eat!
Ye Yunian sat opposite Song Yi, with his arms on his waist, and his little bear face looked super fierce!
Song Yi looked at the big apples and wowotou in his hands, then raised his head to look at Ye Yunian.
Ye Yunian hummed twice, urging Song Yi to eat quickly.
If you don't eat well and don't get enough nutrition, how can your wounds heal quickly?
Today Ye Yunian sat opposite Song Yi and watched him eat!
The way Ye Yunian fed Song Yi today was exactly the same as when he fed him bamboo rats when Song Yi was injured.
Song Yi understood that he must eat everything Ye Yunian fed him, otherwise the little bear would definitely be angry.
Although Ye Yunian would at most bite his arm or his own hand when he got angry, Song Yi didn't want Ye Yunian to be angry.
He finally reunited with Ye Yunian with great difficulty, and he wanted Ye Yunian to be happy.
So under Ye Yunian's gaze, Song Yi picked up a big apple, put it in his mouth and took a big bite.
Ye Yunian was satisfied.
But Song Yi only ate one apple, then he stopped, lowered his head, picked up another big apple in his hand and gave it to Ye Yunian.
Ye Yunian refused Song Yi's feeding without hesitation.
During the time when Song Yi went to remove the stitches, Ye Yunian had already eaten his fill.
These foods were for the apple bear to replenish its body, so Ye Yunian would not eat them.
Song Yi fed it twice, but Ye Yunian shook his head and refused.
Song Yi looked at the apple that was back in his paw, thought about it, picked up a Wo Wo Tou from the side and handed it to Ye Yunian.
He thought Ye Yunian didn't like apples, so he gave Ye Yunian the Wo Wo Tou that he thought was the second most delicious.
Ye Yunian looked at the Wo Wo head in front of him, his heart was filled with sourness, and the anger because of Song Yi not eating well instantly dissipated.
Ah, why was he angry with Apple Bear?
Apple Bear is just a stupid bear!
He was new to the base and suffered such a serious injury. He must have been suffering every day.
It is normal to have no appetite, and he did not want to lose weight. He must have a poor appetite because of the pain from the wound.
Thinking of how he was angry with Song Yi just now, Ye Yunian suddenly felt a little guilty.
He had been separated from Song Yi for half a month, and this stupid bear still remembered to give him the best things to eat.
Wuwuwu, Apple Bear, why are you so good to me!
Ye Yunian hummed and rested his head on Song Yi's broad shoulders.
This time, he did not refuse to feed him.
But Ye Yunian still didn't eat the Wo Wo Tou. Wo
Wo Tou is indeed delicious and nutritious. It might also contain the medicine that Song Yi has to take every day. Ye Yunian certainly can't eat it casually.
Worried that Song Yi would feed him again because he didn't eat, Ye Yunian simply pulled a bamboo from the side and started eating.
He also eats, so Song Yi has to eat well too!
Ye Yunian supervised Song Yi while he ate.
When Song Yi saw that Ye Yunian finally started to eat, even though he didn't eat the Wo Wo Tou he fed him, he was relieved and lowered his head to concentrate on eating the food in front of him.
The food prepared by the keeper for Song Yi was enough for him for the whole day.
But in the past half month, most of this food would be left over almost every day.
The pain from the wound was one reason, and another reason was Song Yi's psychological reasons.
After all, Song Yi was a giant panda who had lived in the wild since he was a child.
After being injured, he was separated from the familiar Ye Yunian and lived alone in the enclosure. He felt uneasy every day.
Even after he moved in and became a neighbor of Ye Yunian, knowing that the little bear was next door to accompany him, Song Yi's appetite did not fully recover.
But today, I don't know what happened.
Seeing Ye Yunian sitting next to him and eating seriously, Song Yi felt his appetite open up.
The bamboo and bamboo shoots that he could not finish in half a day in the past were eaten up in a short while today.
Even most of the bamboo was eaten by Song Yi alone.
After all, Ye Yunian had eaten all the food he had eaten for half a day in his pen before he climbed over the wall. After eating for a while, he felt that his belly was about to burst, so he simply sat next to Song Yi and licked his fur.
Eating is a very slow process for giant pandas.
After Song Yi finished all the food in front of him, he looked down and found that Ye Yunian had fallen asleep next to him.
Song Yi lowered his head slightly, sniffed the scent of the little bear, and licked his face with his tongue.
Ye Yunian, who was sleeping, noticed that Song Yi was licking him, so he simply turned over and exposed his white belly, making it easier for Song Yi to lick his fur.
Song Yi carefully licked Ye Yunian's fur all over his body.
After licking, Song Yi sniffed the scent of Ye Yunian's body. After making sure that the little bear was covered with his scent again, he stopped with satisfaction and began to tidy up his hair.
It was much easier to tidy up one's own hair. It didn't take Song Yi much time to finish it, and then he was ready to lie down next to Ye Yunian.
Unexpectedly, Ye Yunian opened his eyes at this time, then turned over and stood up from the ground.
Song Yi looked at Ye Yunian with some confusion.
Although Ye Yunian was very sleepy and wanted to sleep at this time, it was afternoon and the sun was shining, so Song Yi should go out for a walk!
Ye Yunian lowered his head, bit Song Yi's arm, and motioned him to follow him.
Sure enough, seeing that Ye Yunian was taking him out, Song Yi also showed great interest.
After all, he had been locked up for a full half month, and he had long wanted to return to the forest he was familiar with. It was just because Ye Yunian had been in front of him just now and the anesthesia had not worn off yet, so Song Yi did not go to the outfield immediately.
The forest in Song Yi's outfield was next to the forest in Ye Yunian's outfield, and Ye Yunian was very familiar with this area.
Considering that Song Yi's injuries had not yet fully recovered, Ye Yunian deliberately slowed down his pace along the way and took Song Yi around the outfield in a full circle.
After walking a full circle, Song Yi understood.
Although they now have an extra forest where they can move around, this forest still restricts their freedom.
Song Yi felt a little lost.
At this moment, Ye Yunian beside him suddenly rushed out in one step.
Song Yi was stunned for a moment, then hurried to catch up.
But before he could get closer, he saw Ye Yunian coming out from the bushes. He was very excited, and jumped to Song Yi's side, then put down a spherical object -
this was a bamboo ball woven with bamboo, which should have been prepared by the keeper for the giant panda that had lived in this enclosure before. It
was the first time that Song Yi saw this round object, and he looked at Ye Yunian in a daze.
Ye Yunian called to Song Yi twice, motioning him to look at him.
He stretched out his fluffy bear paw, patted the bamboo ball lightly, and saw the bamboo ball in front of him rolling down the hillside.
Ye Yunian quickly chased after it, and before the bamboo ball stopped, he used his claws to nudge it to roll, and the bamboo ball flew in another direction.
Ye Yunian stopped and looked back at Song Yi, his eyes sparkling.
Song Yi suddenly remembered that when he was very young, he seemed to have played such a game with his mother.
However, at that time, he couldn't find a ball that rolled so fast, so Song Yi played more with some wooden sticks, flying birds, or insects and snakes, or the bamboo rats that his mother had just caught.
When his mother was in a good mood, she would play with him. When she was in a bad mood
, there was a high probability that Song Yi would be bitten on the neck and beaten by his mother.
The little bear in front of him probably wanted to invite him to play with him.
Song Yi has always been very doting on Ye Yunian. As long as Ye Yunian made a request, he would satisfy it.
So he didn't hesitate any more and trotted towards Ye Yunian.
Seeing Song Yi finally coming over, Ye Yunian breathed a sigh of relief.
He and Song Yi have been together for seven months, and he has already understood Song Yi's character thoroughly.
Naturally, he noticed the loss in Song Yi's mood just now.
Song Yi doesn't like the captive environment, he longs for freedom.
But now Song Yi's injuries have not fully recovered, let alone Ye Yunian, even the base can't choose to release them at this time.
At least for the next half month, they have to continue living in the base.
That's why Ye Yunian wanted to play games with Song Yi to divert his attention.
After all, a good mood is also conducive to wound recovery!
It's just that Song Yi's wounds haven't healed yet, so Ye Yunian has to control himself a little when playing ball with Song Yi.
Don't play for too long, and don't run too vigorously!
Ye Yunian picked up the bamboo ball, put it under his feet, and then used his claws to control the ball to roll towards Song Yi.
Song Yi understood at once, and when the bamboo ball rolled under his feet, he would stretch out his claws and roll the bamboo ball in Ye Yunian's direction.
After trying it several times, Song Yi gradually got the hang of it, and became more and more proficient in kicking the ball with his claws.
Seeing this, Ye Yunian was completely relieved.
The two big bears played and ate and drank their fill, and then played outside for a while. Now they were a little tired.
The afternoon sun was warm, and it was very comfortable to shine on the body.
Ye Yunian opened his mouth and yawned loudly.
Seeing this, Song Yi stopped digging at the ball.
He walked towards Ye Yunian, lowered his head and licked Ye Yunian's face.
Ye Yunian looked around and found a flat place with plenty of sunlight. Ye
Yunian ran over with a happy step, turned back and asked Song Yi to follow him.
After Song Yi was sent for examination this morning, Ye Yunian had not slept and had been waiting for Song Yi's examination results.
When Song Yi was sent back, Ye Yunian had spent a lot of energy to "escape from prison", and now he had been playing with Song Yi for so long, he was already exhausted. Song Yi
sat down on the ground first, and Ye Yunian unceremoniously rested his head on his arm.
The wound on Apple Bear's belly has not healed yet, so he can't lie down.
Then lie down on your arms first!
Ye Yunian yawned again, found a comfortable position, and closed his eyes beautifully.
The head of the little bear next to him was close to Song Yi's head, and soon he heard the even breathing sound coming from his ears.
Ye Yunian fell asleep almost in seconds.
But Song Yi was not sleepy now. The morning examination lasted for a whole morning, which meant that he was resting under anesthesia the whole morning.
And because he had just reunited with Ye Yunian, Song Yi was still a little excited and excited.
But for some reason, when he heard the familiar breathing sound of the little bear next to him, Song Yi felt extremely relaxed at this moment. Although he still had not regained his freedom, Ye Yunian had been with him all the time, as if living here with Ye Yunian was not so difficult for him to accept.
Such thoughts made Song Yi's eyelids slowly grow heavy.
The safe environment, sufficient food, and even the pain from the abdominal wound were much relieved.
Song Yi closed his eyes, and soon he fell asleep with Ye Yunian.
This was the most peaceful and comfortable sleep Song Yi had had since he was injured.
While the two giant pandas were sleeping carefree, in the other enclosure, the keeper who was responsible for taking care of Yu Nian almost went crazy.
The giant panda keepers would come to the giant panda enclosures several times a day to check on the conditions, depending on the weather and the different conditions of each giant panda.
Yu Nian has always been in good health and in a very good mental state. The only thing that the keeper needs to pay attention to is that Ye Yu Nian likes to stay outside at night during this period and does not return to the pen.
In order to correct Yu Nian's "bad habit", the keeper has tried to feed Yu Nian three times a day in recent days.
Once in the morning, once for a snack at noon, and once in the evening.
This morning, the keeper came to clean the pen early and fed Yu Nian.
At noon, he brought food to Yu Nian's pen on time.
But Yu Nian was not in the pen.
The keeper did not care too much at first. After all, Yu Nian liked to go outside every day during this period. As long as it was not windy or rainy outside, the keeper would not interfere too much.
He thought that Yu Nian would come back to eat soon if he was hungry, so he did not call Yu Nian back.
After cleaning Yu Nian's pen carefully, the keeper put down the lunch snack and left.
An hour later, the keeper finished his other work and returned to Yu Nian's pen again.
What surprised him was that the food he put in at noon was not moved at all.
Could it be that Yu Nian was not hungry?
Impossible.
Yu Nian was the most active in eating every day. Even if he sometimes forgot the time while playing outside, he would come back to eat by himself no later than half an hour.
What happened today?
The keeper felt something was strange and went out of the pen to look for Yu Nian in the back mountain.
Who would have thought that this would be the beginning of his nightmare.
After walking around the back of the mountain for half an hour, the keepers didn't see a single panda hair, let alone a panda!
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the keepers immediately contacted their colleagues.
Soon, six people joined the search team for Yu Nian.
Seven keepers walked around the back of the mountain where Yu Nian's enclosure was several times in an hour, but they didn't find any trace of Yu Nian.
The keeper was a little anxious: "Nothing will happen to Yu Nian, right?"
"That's impossible. There's no danger in our back hills. Unless Yu Nian accidentally fell from the tree, but we've been calling him for so long, he will definitely answer when he hears us."
"Where's the surveillance?"
"We've already checked."
"Then don't worry, wait a little longer. The wall here is so high, Yu Nian can't possibly climb out from here..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a scream from next door.
The group was stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"Is Song Yi missing too?"
Several people hurried to the next pen.
The keeper who had been in charge of taking care of Song Yi was shocked and said, "Song Yi actually ate all the bamboo that was delivered to him today. When did his appetite become so good..."
Just at this moment, the colleague who went to check the surveillance came back and said, "I saw it, I saw it!"
"Yu Nian didn't run away, he... huhu——"
At the same time, they were exhausted and panting.
The hearts of the group were also on a roller coaster.
"If he didn't run out, then where did he go?"
I saw a colleague stretched out a hand and pointed at Song Yi's enclosure next door.
The eyes of the group were full of confusion.
Then I heard the colleague who had caught his breath and said in one breath: "Yu Nian climbed over the wall and ran to Song Yi's enclosure! The surveillance in Song Yi's enclosure captured him!"
"What???"
Everyone was stunned.
Climbed over the wall to find Song Yi?
Did they really hear it right?
The wall of the enclosure is so high, how did Yu Nian climb over it?
Why is Yu Nian so brave?
Isn't he afraid that he will be beaten by Song Yi if he climbs over the wall?
Where are the two pandas now?
They are not really going to fight, are they?
The group did not dare to delay any longer and hurried to the back mountain of Song Yi to look for the pandas.
After searching for a while around the forest where Song Yi was, the keepers finally found the two giant pandas on a platform halfway up the mountain. It was
three o'clock in the afternoon and the sun was at its brightest.
The breeze from the forest blew from time to time, making the long hair of the two giant pandas sway gently.
Song Yi was lying on the ground in a big letter shape, and next to him, Ye Yunian was sleeping next to him, also lying in a big letter shape, but the difference was that Yunian had one more pillow than Song Yi.
And this pillow was Song Yi's arm.
The keepers and their group were all stunned in surprise.
They don't look like they're going to fight...
If Song Yi wasn't obviously bigger than Yu Nian, some people would probably believe it even if they said they were twin pandas who grew up together.
But these two giant pandas are not twins! They don't even have a single blood relationship!
How can their relationship be so good?
Yu Nian even climbed over the wall to find Song Yi.
Then again, how did Yu Nian get over there?
The wall of their base has been built for so many years, and this is the first time a giant panda has successfully escaped.
The keepers couldn't figure it out.
But the picture of the two giant pandas getting along harmoniously in front of them was so beautiful that no one wanted to disturb them.
"It doesn't look like Yu Nian will be beaten."
A keeper couldn't help laughing.
"Yeah."
Others echoed.
Not only will he not be beaten, but you can tell from the way Song Yi took the initiative to let Yu Nian use his arm as a pillow that Song Yi trusts Yu Nian very much and likes him very much.
"I don't think I've seen Song Yi sleeping with his belly spread out before?" A keeper asked the keeper who had been responsible for taking care of Song Yi.
The keeper nodded.
Song Yi was too vigilant. Whenever they came to the pen, even if Song Yi was still sleeping soundly, he would get up and stay away from them at the first moment.
"It seems that he really trusts Yu Nian."
"After all, it was Yu Nian who brought him to the base."
"So what should we do now?" someone asked.
Several keepers looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
What can they do?
"Let's go and find out how Yu Nian got over there, and then make a report."
Since Yu Nian, this naughty kid, has gone through so much trouble to climb over the wall to find Song Yi, the keepers should not be bad guys and separate them.
Ye Yu Nian, who was still sleeping, didn't know the situation outside, and he didn't know that the keepers had decided not to separate them.
Finally, he could sleep next to Song Yi again. Ye Yu Nian slept very soundly this time and even had a good dream.
He dreamed that Song Yi's injuries had completely healed, and they could travel freely in the mountains and forests again.
