Chapter 45
When Mu Ling and Xiang Bie came back with the cart, they saw that the door of the glass house was open.
Mu Ling was startled and ran over to see what was happening. She saw a huge red elephant in the glass house, using its flexible trunk to wrap up the little wolf.
Mu Ling thought the magic was attacking the little wolf and was about to rush in to stop it, but she saw that the Qingjian next to her did not respond. Even Lightning, who was very close to the little wolf, just looked up.
After the giant elephant wrapped up the little wolf, it tilted its trunk upwards and let the little wolf lie on its trunk.
Because it was too high, the little wolf huddled on its long nose and dared not move, with its tail tucked tightly between its legs.
The giant elephant moved its trunk up and down, letting the little wolf slide on its trunk.
Because the giant elephant's movements were very gentle, the little wolf seemed to adapt slowly. It began to try walking on the elephant's trunk, and then it sprinted and suddenly jumped onto the top of the elephant's head.
The top of its head was very stable. The little wolf sat there looking at the elephant's trunk. As it looked, it tentatively stretched out its little feet, wanting to walk back along the trunk.
Children are curious and adventurous about everything.
The giant elephant seemed to sense it, so it gently stopped, stretched out its trunk, and paved a smooth path for the little wolf.
Finally, the little wolf took a step and walked down. When it reached the middle of the elephant's trunk, the giant elephant began to bend its trunk again, and then swayed up and down again. The little wolf was very happy this time. Although it still looked motionless and shivering, its tail behind it was swinging wildly, and it was obvious that it liked it very much.
Mu Ling watched this scene at the door, her mouth wide open, unable to close for a long time.
Xiang Bie glanced at her and said, "Looks like there's no need to let Qilin and the others live in the veterinary station."
Mu Ling nodded blankly, then became suspicious: "But didn't I close the door just now? How did they get in?"
As he said this, the director's sharp eyes suddenly turned to the black panther circling around the elephant's legs at its feet.
If you ask who in the family is a level eight locksmith, it’s only this sister!
Mu Ling: “…”
However, Mu Ling did not expect that the little animals would accept magic so quickly. They had just met each other. Could this be some kind of tacit understanding between S-level war beasts?
Thinking of this, Mu Ling pushed in another full cart of fodder.
When Lightning saw Mu Ling coming back, he immediately ran over and rubbed his head against Mu Ling's thigh.
Mu Ling rubbed its ears, hummed twice, and asked, "Did you open the lock?"
The black panther didn't understand what people were saying and just continued to rub Mu Ling's legs.
Mu Ling sighed. There was nothing she could do about it, so she could only push the cart in front of the giant elephant.
After pouring out the grass again, as expected, seeing food, the elephant put the wolf cub down and started eating himself.
The little wolf seemed to know that the giant elephant would not hurt it, so when the giant elephant rolled up the grass with its trunk, it deliberately ran over and pressed down on the grass.
Mu Ling helplessly picked up the little wolf and tapped its forehead: "Let Magic Auntie eat first, and then play later."
The little wolf also liked to play with Mu Ling. It hugged Mu Ling's fingers, licked them, and gently bit them with its teeth.
Mu Ling carried the little wolf to Qing Jiao's side and sat down. When Qing Jiao saw the little wolf coming, he stood up and licked the little wolf's fur. Lightning also followed. They sat there and watched the elephant eat from a distance.
The second cart of fodder was soon finished, and the elephant seemed to have finally eaten its fill. It went to the swimming pool to drink some bath water... Mu Ling thought, why not build a small swimming pool tomorrow, just for Magic to drink water. Drinking bath water all the time is not a good idea...
After drinking the water, the elephant began to walk around in the glass house again. After walking around for a long time, it finally came around to the Qilin.
Qingjiao, Lightning and Little Wolf have already accepted the giant elephant, but Tayun cannot reach it. Only Qilin is left. He sits alone on the side with a cold look on his face.
Perhaps sensing the tiger's distance, the socialite magic approached the Qilin, then lowered her head and cautiously extended her nose towards it.
"Roar!" Qilin suddenly shouted at the giant elephant.
The giant elephant was a little embarrassed and had to retract its trunk a little, but not completely. Its trunk was still rubbing on the ground, and from time to time it would roll up a toy scattered nearby, roll it up and put it down, and then roll up another toy.
This was full of temptation and trying hard to be busy, which made Mu Ling very sad. She rushed over to act as a peacemaker on the spot!
"Okay, okay Kirin, didn't Magic Sister intentionally throw the little yellow duck at you before? Didn't she miss?"
Mu Ling rubbed Qilin's head. Qilin probably felt comfortable, so he naturally leaned his head on Mu Ling's thigh, making a gurgling sound in his throat.
Mu Ling scratched its chin again: "Don't be angry with Magic Sister, okay? Sister was not feeling well before and couldn't control herself. Sister hasn't started taking medicine yet."
Qilin liked having his chin touched, so he simply closed his eyes and planned to sleep on Mu Ling.
The giant elephant's trunk stretched forward again, but before it got close to the Qilin, it retracted, then took a step, left the cushion, and went to the pool.
Mu Ling thought it was thirsty again and ignored it. After a while, the giant elephant came back and raised its trunk.
"Puff!!!" A column of water like a flash flood instantly gushed out from the giant elephant's trunk, hitting Qilin and Mu Ling.
Qilin: “…”
Mu Ling: “…”
Item: “…………”
Mu Ling slowly raised her hand like a drowned chicken, wiped her face, and then looked at the giant elephant in front of her with a confused look.
She clearly didn't provoke any beasts...
The Qilin was also caught off guard. It immediately stood up, shook off the water on its body, and ran away from the giant elephant with its fur fluttering.
The giant elephant chased the Qilin again and rubbed it with its trunk as if to wipe its fur.
The Qilin was a little annoyed, but it did not refuse the giant elephant's wiping. At the same time, it lowered its head and licked the water on its paws and shoulders.
The giant elephant seemed happy. Its huge legs bounced a little, and its inverted triangle mouth opened as if it was laughing. It then turned around and wrapped Mu Ling's arm with its trunk, as if wiping it as well.
Mu Ling: “…”
Thank you!
Mu Ling felt numb. She stood up and looked at the water all over her body, then looked at the wet cushion, and her head started to throb with pain.
Xiang Bie came over at this time and handed her the tissue box.
Mu Ling held the tissue box and wiped her face while asking, "What's going on?"
Xiangbie: "Playing. Elephants love playing with water. Inviting friends to have water fights in places with water is also a way for elephants to make friends."
Mu Ling collapsed: "Do we have to have a water fight at 11 o'clock in the middle of the night? I'm already soaked and can't sleep!"
Xiang Bie looked at the soaked cushion and said to Mu Ling, "Go wash it, I'll clean it up."
After all, war beasts understand human nature. Although they don't get close to people they often see, like Xiang Bie and Wei Li, they won't attack them either. So Xiang Bie stays behind to take care of things, and the animals won't hurt him.
Mu Ling was really uncomfortable like this. She took off her protective suit, asked Brother Xiang to put it on, and then returned to the dormitory building.
When Mu Ling came down after taking a shower, she saw that the glass house had been cleaned up, and even the ladder, cage and cart had been taken away.
The little animals were probably too tired from playing and started to sleep.
Lightning was sleeping on his side on the newly replaced cushion, the little wolf was sleeping in the pile of toys, Qingjian was guarding it beside him, Tayun was sleeping in the bird's nest on the tree, and Magic was standing next to the tree trunk, leaning his body against the trunk and sleeping while standing.
Only the Qilin was still licking its fur.
Brother Xiang was no longer here, probably having gone to put something away. Mu Ling went in, touched Qilin's head, and took it out.
Mu Ling took Qilin to the veterinary station to dry its fur, and then sent it back.
When she went back, she saw Brother Xiang there again, sweeping the grass clippings at the door with a broom.
Seeing Mu Ling coming back, Xiang Bie said, "Go back to sleep."
Mu Ling sighed: "I'm not going back to sleep. I'll sleep here. I'm afraid that if the magic breaks down in the middle of the night and attacks Qilin and the others, I can at least open the door and let them escape."
Xiang Bie frowned, was silent for a moment, and finally said nothing.
In this way, that night, Xiang Bie and Mu Ling, one was on guard at the veterinary station and the other was on guard at the animal dormitory, neither of them had a moment's rest.
However, Mu Ling had rich experience in sleeping with wild beasts, so she was not shy and lay down on the cushion directly. After a while, Qilin slept on her left side and Lightning slept on her right side.
After a while, Mu Ling heard some sound. She opened her eyes and saw that Ta Yun had come to the top of her head at some point and was scratching her hair with his sharp eagle claws, making it into the shape of a bird's nest. Then he sat down on her scalp.
Mu Ling: “…”
Never mind, whatever, she was really sleepy.
-
The next day, at five in the morning, Commander Duan stood in front of the huge, empty iron cage, his face expressionless and his eyes dull.
The more than 30 staff members following Commander Duan were also at a loss.
Wei Li and several other employees of the Beak Zoo, who planned to send the giant elephant into the mountains before the park opened, were also full of questions.
Commander Duan was silent for a long time. Finally, he pointed at the empty cage and moved his lips several times before finding his voice: "Where is my elephant?"
"I'm as big as you can be, what about an elephant that big?"
One of the thirty or so staff members hesitated and said, "I seemed to hear a sound similar to the sound of banging a cage last night..."
Commander Duan immediately looked at the man: "And then?"
The man said awkwardly, "It rang for a while and then stopped, so I didn't take it seriously..."
He did go to the window and look, but the window of his room did not look on the square, but on the forest, so he could not see anything.
Commander Duan had a very ugly expression on his face. He looked at Wei Li behind him. As a staff member of the zoo, the zoo must be responsible if the animals kept in their zoo are lost!
Wei Li was also a little panicked at this moment. He hurriedly said, "I'll call Brother Xiang first."
The communication was quickly connected. Wei Li had just opened his mouth when Xiang Bie's lazy voice came over: "In the animal dormitory."
Wei Li was stunned, then quickly walked towards the animal dormitory.
As soon as he left, the others hurried to follow.
Five minutes later, at the door of the animal dormitory, more than forty people stood there, silently watching the scene of the animals sleeping inside.
The petite human was lying on a cushion, lying on her side with her face buried in the golden tiger's white chest fur. A pitch-black panther was pressed against her back, and a crooked giant eagle was pressing on her head. At her feet was a little wolf with its belly turned up, and next to the little wolf was a ferocious female wolf.
The five animals surrounded the humans, and not far from them, next to another wall, a giant elephant, three and a half meters tall and weighing nine tons, was pressing its weight on a big tree, with its eyes closed and its mouth holding its trunk, and was also sleeping.
When elephants sleep, they hold their trunks in their mouths or turn the tips of their trunks inward to prevent small insects from entering their nostrils.
The atmosphere in the entire animal dormitory was so peaceful and ethereal, it seemed unreal...
Commander Duan looked from one to another, and finally looked at Wei Li. He asked in a low voice, "Does your Director Mu usually sleep like this?"
Wei Li was also a little confused. He also replied in a low voice: "Since the animal dormitory was built, this is the first time that the director has slept in a large bunk bed with the war beasts. Before, she at least had a sofa bed to sleep on..."
Commander Duan: “…”
Commander Duan once again looked at the young girl who was sleeping soundly over there, and the animals surrounding the girl also woke up at this time because of the constant noise at the door... The Tearing Tiger, the Fire Leopard, the Black Snow Wolf, and the Crossing Eagle all opened their eyes and glanced over here with a chill.
Commander Duan looked at his magic again.
Okay, the magic hasn't woken up yet. It's said that after the spirit is traumatized, one will become extremely sensitive and suspicious?
When it was at the War Beast Hospital, Magic was in a state of tension when someone approached it, so why was it so relaxed now? He even heard it snoring!
Wait, that's not right, why is Magic reflecting light?
Commander Duan took another closer look and saw clearly that the magic skin seemed to have been smeared with ointment.
Pursing his lips, Commander Duan said to Wei Li, "Can I take a look at the surveillance footage in your park? I want to see what Magic went through last night."
The entire service area is under surveillance. After all, there are so many tourists every day, so surveillance must be installed in public places.
Wei Li took Commander Duan and others to the monitoring room.
When the group of people left, Lin Xuan, Zhao Fang and Li Yan, who were left at the end, looked inside the animal dormitory with a particularly complicated look, then quietly closed the door and followed them to the monitoring room.
For the next hour, everyone watched the square and animal dormitory surveillance footage from 10 o'clock last night to 5 o'clock this morning at five times the speed.
From the moment Magic suddenly started kicking the cage, to Director Mu ingeniously applying medicine to it with a broom, to Xiang Bie appearing, the screen suddenly froze, and when it resumed, Xiang Bie and Mu Ling were working together to push the giant elephant cage into the animal dormitory...
"Fuck, Brother Xiang and the headmaster are so strong!" Fas suddenly blurted out, staring at the surveillance screen in amazement.
Wei Li quickly explained, "There was a hiccup just now. I guess we didn't capture Brother Xiang using the wheelchair. Using the wheelchair on flat ground like this saves a lot of effort. Otherwise, how could they have pushed it?"
When Fas heard what Wei Li said, he quickly said "Oh" twice. This explained it.
Others didn't think much about it and thought that a wheelchair must have been used.
Wei Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that no one asked any more questions.
Later on, the camera footage from the square could no longer be seen, so Wei Li switched to the surveillance footage from the animal dormitory. After all the surveillance videos were played, everyone was silent.
It wasn't until a while later that Commander Duan suddenly said, "I don't understand."
He stared at the surveillance screen with his deep eyes: "Why did the magic suddenly become like this?"
When in the war animal hospital, Magic never showed any gentleness or kindness. Since it fell ill, its condition has been getting worse and worse. It would attack people from time to time and shed tears from time to time. The veterinarian of the war animal hospital said that its damage value rose rapidly, from 30% to 50% in just two months.
Until the magic was retired, its condition did not ease at all.
But he just applied a little medicine. Director Mu just applied a little medicine on it, so why did it change?
Medicine, it must be that medicine.
Commander Duan immediately asked, "Can you give me some of that ointment?"
He wants to take it back for testing.
Wei Li paused and said, "I want to ask the headmaster."
Commander Duan forced himself to calm down and nodded: "Then wait until she wakes up."
-
Mu Ling slept until the alarm clock rang at seven o'clock.
The huge vibration woke her up. She yawned and was about to turn over when her scalp suddenly tightened: "Ahhh!"
My head hurts!
Mu Ling looked up and immediately met a pair of sharp eagle eyes.
"Treading on the clouds!" Mu Ling pulled the giant eagle into her arms, climbed up and sat down. She poked the eagle's little head and said, "When I become bald in the future, I will ask you to compensate me. I will pluck out all your feathers and stick them on my head!"
The giant eagle stood on Mu Ling's thigh. It felt uncomfortable standing there, so it climbed up along Mu Ling's arm and onto Mu Ling's shoulder, then lowered its head to peck at Mu Ling's head lice.
Mu Ling sighed: "It's your fault that my shoulders are uneven..."
One shoulder was fine, while the other shoulder was carrying a 20-jin eagle, which was heavier than a bag of rice!
Qilin and Lightning were also woken up at this time. Qilin fell to the ground and didn't move, while Lightning was thirsty when he woke up, so he went to the water dispenser to drink water.
The little wolf was still sleeping, and Qingqiang was licking its fur. The giant elephant over there also spit out the nose in its mouth, then stood up and slowly began to roll up the leaves from the tree and eat them.
"Hey hey hey! Sis! Let that leaf go! I'll go get you some fodder!"
Mu Ling said this, quickly got up and ran out.
As soon as she opened the door, Mu Ling saw that there were a lot of people standing outside, densely packed, at least more than forty people!
Mu Ling was stunned.
After Tayun came out, he flew into the sky and flew directly in the sky.
Mu Ling knew it wouldn't run far, so she didn't call it. She just looked at the people in front of her: "You..."
Wei Li sighed and told Mu Ling what had happened. Mu Ling slapped her head after hearing this and said, "Oh, I forgot to inform you. Mo Fa won't be going up the mountain today! Commander Duan, I want to wait until all of Mo Fa's external injuries have healed before sending him up the mountain. I've calculated that if he applies medicine every day, he'll be fully healed in at most half a month. I've examined his wounds, and most of them aren't too serious. However, there are a few that I believe need to have the rotten flesh dug out and then sutured, otherwise they won't heal. It was too dark yesterday, and I didn't know Mo Fa's personality well enough, so I didn't dare to act rashly. I want to try and see if Mo Fa will let me dug it out."
Wei Li listened and was about to mention that Commander Duan wanted the ointment, but Commander Duan interrupted and said, "I'll go with you."
Mu Ling smiled and said, "With the master by my side, I believe the magic will be more coordinated."
After that, Mu Ling went to wash up first, and then fed the animals with food and medicine. She also asked Brother Zhao to go to the mountain to catch two golden rabbits to be on duty. Then she took the medicine box, ladder, broom, and a cart of fodder and went into the animal dormitory.
Commander Duan also followed in, but when Commander Duan went in, the animals were obviously a little anxious. Commander Duan didn't care. He just put on a full set of protective clothing. He had watched the video and knew that with Mu Ling there, these war beasts would not attack him.
"Magic, time to eat."
Mu Ling poured out the grass and let the giant elephant eat it by itself.
The giant elephant rolled up its trunk and immediately rolled up a bundle of grass and stuffed it into its mouth.
While it was chewing, Mu Ling walked over to it and tentatively touched its skin.
It feels rough and has many hard burrs on it.
The giant elephant's black pupil glanced at Mu Ling, but did not resist and continued to eat grass.
Commander Duan narrowed his eyes at this time, and he also walked over and stroked the magic skin.
The giant elephant still did not resist, but just flicked its tail twice.
Miracle!
These two words suddenly flashed through Commander Duan's mind. This was really the best attitude of magic he had experienced in the past six months!
But is it really reasonable for a giant elephant with a damage value of 53.2% to have such coordination?
Commander Duan continued to watch.
After Magic finished his breakfast, he went to the inflatable pool to drink water. After drinking the water, he turned around and wanted to find other animals to play with.
"Magic, magic." Mu Ling quickly stopped the magic and gave it an order: "Stand at attention."
Commander Duan looked at Mu Ling in surprise.
Mu Ling said embarrassedly: "I also learned it from others, I only learned a few sentences..."
Commander Duan nodded and said, "But the magic probably won't obey your orders. I'll do it..."
Before he could even utter the word "bar", Commander Duan saw the giant elephant standing in front of Mu Ling. Suddenly, it stood at attention with all four legs parallel, raised its chin, and curled its trunk high, making an elephant salute gesture.
Commander Duan: “…”
Mu Ling didn't know that this gesture was an elephant salute. Seeing that the giant elephant really didn't move, she touched it again and opened the ladder. "Commander Duan, can you help me hold the ladder? I'm afraid I'll be knocked out."
Commander Duan helped her hold the ladder.
After Mu Ling went up, she continued to stroke the giant elephant's forehead patiently. She was trying to relax the giant elephant's vigilance through touch, after all, she was going to cut its flesh soon.
The giant elephant didn't know that he felt Mu Ling's touch was very gentle, and he couldn't help but arch his forehead into Mu Ling's palm.
Elephants are animals that love to be stroked and cuddled. They express their friendship through friction. Mu Ling's actions completely touched the giant elephant's heart. Magic was not satisfied with rubbing against other animals yesterday, so today it rubbed Mu Ling's hand vigorously, and used its nose to hook Mu Ling's waist. Its whole body was shaking and wagging its tail to express its joy.
Seeing that the giant elephant was adapting well, Mu Ling felt that the time had come. She was about to ask Commander Duan to pass her the medicine box, but the next second, she felt a tightness around her waist. The giant elephant had wrapped her up directly.
"Ah!" Mu Ling screamed in surprise.
Commander Duan was also startled and was about to call for help when he saw the giant elephant suddenly stop moving.
After the giant elephant wrapped Mu Ling in mid-air, it used its trunk to adjust Mu Ling's position.
Mu Ling was very afraid of falling, so she sat astride the elephant's trunk and held the front end of the trunk tightly.
Then, the trunk began to roll up, then it began to drop down, then it began to roll up again, then it began to drop down again...
“Fuck!”
Mu Ling was shocked: "What are you doing? Isn't this the same action you used to tease the little wolf last night?"
Yes, last night Magic used his trunk to push the little wolf on the seesaw.
Today it used its nose to nudge Mu Ling to play on the seesaw.
Mu Ling was sweating profusely and quickly shouted, "Sister, Sister Magic, look at me. Although I am seven years younger than you, I am already twenty years old. I am not a child anymore! We twenty-year-old graduates don't play on the seesaw anymore!"
The giant elephant didn't understand human language. It opened its inverted triangle mouth as if it was laughing. Then it put Mu Ling on its forehead again, stretched out its trunk, and let Mu Ling walk down again, just like the little wolf yesterday.
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling wanted to cry but had no tears. She lay on the elephant's head, not daring to move. She asked Commander Duan below innocently, "Commander Duan, what should I do now?"
Commander Duan's pupils trembled!
He doesn't understand! He doesn't accept! It's impossible!
He had raised Magic from infancy to adulthood, for twenty-seven years, and Magic had never once gotten the better of him!
How is this possible? Why is this happening now?
Yes, insanity, this is insanity! 53.2% damage value, the magic has really gone crazy!
"Commander Duan?" Mu Ling called out again.
Commander Duan's heart was broken, and he gritted his teeth: "Don't make a noise, I'm thinking!"
Mu Ling: “…”
