Forest protection starts with picking up a lynx girl

Chapter 475 Wild boars rampage in the forest

Throughout the day, they found several traces suspected to be left by the Indochinese tiger, but this big guy never showed up, as if it was playing hide-and-seek with them.

With Chen Ying's ability, he could only learn from those small animals that there was a big guy hanging from a distance.

"Everyone, hold on for a while. Take a day off today. We will speed up in the next four days."

Although everyone is an outdoor veteran, such high-intensity mountain climbing requires expanding branch maps along the way, discovering rare plants, animals, birds, etc., as well as a tedious recording process. The energy and physical strength consumed in one trip is much greater than that of a simple hiking trip.

Fortunately, their team was reasonably configured, and Brother Li made detailed arrangements. Even though Dao Meihua's cousin had the worst physical strength, after the other people helped share the load, she also tried her best not to fall behind.

They chose to stay here for a day, firstly to rest and secondly because they discovered several rare trees and orchids here, which really excited Yin Li and Dao Meihua.

The troops were divided into two groups, Lao Gao followed Yin Li, Dao Meihua and others, while Chen Ying stayed behind to analyze the activity area of ​​the big cat.

He wanted to wait for a big cat to see how the Indochinese tigers were doing here.

"Teacher Chen, there is a cliff ahead. You must be careful when you go up. Don't get too close to the edge. Those plants may grow diagonally. It looks like there is still space, but if you step on them, you will fall down the mountain."

"I know. Don't worry. I won't go near the edge."

Chen Ying chose a place with rocks, stomped his feet, and sprayed some insect repellent nearby.

He configured all of this himself, and the results are excellent.

After waiting for a few minutes, he set up a small camouflage tent and hid in it, then lay down and waited quietly.

The location was chosen for a reason. According to his analysis, big cats like to choose a comfortable place to rest in the afternoon. Rocks are their favorite, followed by thick branches.

Although this is a paradise for plants, there are not many trees that can bear the weight of a big cat. Looking at the surrounding environment, the place he chose is the most suitable.

Brother Li stayed with him for a while, and when he saw that he had no intention of moving, he went back to the camp.

After having a few bites at noon, Chen Ying yawned and decided to take a nap.

At the end of October, the temperature in the mountains had dropped a lot. The afternoon sun was so warm that it was easy to oversleep if you were not careful.

The moment Chen Ying woke up leisurely, he almost fell down.

The big cat, startled by his action, yawned, turned over and basked in the sun on the other side.

Chen Ying sat up and looked speechlessly at the obviously young, barely-adult tiger.

When it sleeps, it makes almost no snoring sound, with its mouth slightly open, revealing a little bit of the tip of its tongue.

There are obviously flatter rocks below that are more suitable for sunbathing, but this guy doesn't go to sleep there, but comes to squeeze into a corner with him. Is he trying to force hardship?

After taking a close look at the big cat with beautiful fur, Chen Ying had to admit that with sufficient sunlight and abundant food, all the cats living in this area had beautiful fur.

She used to be very pretty, and now she is a big shot. If you just take her out to walk on the catwalk, she will have over a million fans in a matter of minutes.

He took a lot of photos close up, especially a close-up of the round cat bell.

It's not that he doesn't want to criticize the face, but he has to make sure the characteristics of this big cat can be clearly entered into the data library.

Besides, with such smooth lines and strong capital, in ten years, this place might become its kingdom, with its descendants spread everywhere.

No, that won’t work. The genes still need to be more diverse.

He originally wanted to put a collar on this guy, but because the purpose of this research was different, he did not get permission, unless he customized a chip for the big cat like Dao Meihua did.

But the chip is very expensive. Although he has some assets, it is nothing compared to the Dao family.

Carefully plucked a handful of fur from the sleeping big cat and kept it away.

I say a handful, but in fact there are only seven or eight of them. It's because the seasons are about to change and the fur is about to change.

The big cat, who didn't like his sleep being disturbed, grabbed Chen Ying's disturbing hand, smacked his lips, and fell asleep again with his teeth bared.

This posture is a bit tiring.

After more than half an hour, the sun gradually slanted, and most of the sunlight was blocked by the branches, and the temperature in the woods gradually dropped.

The tiger stood up, shook its fur vigorously, stood on the rock, roared towards the valley, then jumped off the rock with a leap and quickly disappeared.

Chen Ying, who was left there, felt lost, a bit like the feeling of being dumped and then having the other person walk away.

Today's gains were quite significant. I was able to take photos up close, pet the fur and collect necessary samples. This discovery alone made the trip worthwhile.

After returning to the camp, Chen Ying became a little restless when he heard that Dao Meihua and the others had not returned yet.

My cousin's wife did not go out. She was writing reports and diaries in the camp. Seeing Chen Ying looking around frequently, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Okay, they have so many people that nothing will happen. If anything happened, they would have called for backup a long time ago. Don't go looking for them. Who knows where they are now? People looking for people, looking for dead people."

The cousin's wife put down her notebook and looked at Chen Ying. "I heard from Meihua that you have never been in a relationship?"

Chen Ying was stunned and felt a little embarrassed.

He didn't like to tell others about his private affairs. When his cousin asked him this, he just said "hmm" in a depressed tone.

My cousin's wife raised her eyebrows in understanding and didn't ask any further questions.

"Then you are quite similar to my daughter Meihua. She has never been in a relationship either. There were people pursuing her in college, but their intentions were not very pure. At that time, she was devoted to charity and could not understand other people's words and actions at all."

As if it was just a casual complaint, my cousin's wife said a few words and then stopped, actively changing the subject.

"You look very happy to be back. Did you find anything?"

Speaking of cats, Chen Ying's expression became a little more relaxed.

"Yes, I saw the tiger. It's a very beautiful tiger, and it looks like it has just reached adulthood."

He exported the photos and showed them to his cousin's wife.

"Wow, it's really beautiful, and looks healthy too. It's a good tiger."

It can be seen from the photo that the distance between the two was very close when the photo was taken. The tiger was able to sleep comfortably even when he was so close to it. It turns out that Chen Dade's name is not for nothing.

Along the way, they also saw many scenes of Chen Ying interacting with animals, even birds and reptiles, but those were small animals. If it were someone else, if they were careful and used food to lure them, they could also take photos of the interaction.

But tigers are different. This big guy can really bite people to death.

Even if you can't bite it to death, wouldn't it be worse to bite it half to death?

After chatting for a while, it was getting late, but the group of people still hadn't come back. I turned on the intercom and called them for a long time but there was no response. Even my cousin's wife stood up worriedly.

"Or I'll go look for them."

The guide Brother Li stood up and packed up his tools.

He dropped the person off at the designated location in the morning and came back.

The plants that Dao Meihua and her team wanted to study were in that area, not far away, and on a gentle slope. He left only after he was sure that the danger was not great. Moreover, they were a large group of people, with two assistants following them. In comparison, the risk factor on Dao Meihua's cousin's side was a little higher.

"I can roughly guess which way they came back from, so I'll go back to look for them. If I can't find them, I'll just come back directly."

Chen Ying glanced at Dao Meihua's cousin and another support person, "I'll go with Brother Li, so I'll have someone to accompany me on the road."

"Be careful." My cousin's wife suppressed her anxiety and told them to put their own safety first.

Just as we were about to set off, the intercom rang.

"Hey, Brother Ying, can you hear me? The coordinates are xxx.xxx, come and help me."

The signal over there was very bad, with a crackling sound, and if you didn't listen carefully you couldn't hear clearly the coordinates she reported.

It's easy if you know the coordinates.

Chen Ying and Brother Li rushed to the place and found that it was a cliff with a very steep slope, but fortunately it was not very high.

"Brother Ying, come and help, Ali is unconscious and Brother Gao is injured."

Not only the two of them were injured, but two logistics staff and Lao Gao's junior fellow also suffered varying degrees of minor injuries.

But the one who was most seriously injured was Yin Li.

The most likely possibility is a humeral fracture, plus a blow to the head, which may cause intracranial congestion.

"Lao Gao, are you okay?" Chen Ying slid down with a safety rope tied to his waist and checked the injuries of several people first. Most of them were skin injuries, but Lao Gao's bones have always been very brittle. Although he didn't have any fractures this time, he sprained his ankle and walked with a limp.

After examining Yin Li's injuries, Chen Ying determined that his problem was not serious and that he might suffer from the sequelae of concussion for a period of time.

"That's good. Be careful and follow your fellow apprentices up first. I'll go up later. I'll carry Yin Li up on my back, and you guys can help me from above."

After sending people up one by one, Chen Ying tied Yin Li to his body with a rope, and with the help of Brother Li, he was successfully pulled up by them.

Brother Li was the last one to climb up. In a mountain like this, he climbed up easily as if he had practiced kung fu.

They made a simple stretcher and carried the man back, then Chen Ying examined him again.

In their team, one of the logistics staff also had a first aid certificate. After discussing with Chen Ying for a while, they both felt that the problem should not be too big.

But no matter how small the problem is, when it involves the brain, no one is sure.

While the two of them were examining, Dao Meihua and the others briefly explained the situation to my cousin's wife.

"We were planning to come back, but when we were climbing up, we encountered a group of wild boars."

It is very dangerous to encounter wild boars in the mountains. In order to protect Dao Meihua and Lao Gao, Yin Li separated from the other two logistics staff and led away the group of foraging wild boars.

He was unlucky and slipped while dodging, falling backwards and hitting the tree next to him. However, it was also this slip that allowed him to avoid the wild boar's charge and he was only rolled twice on the ground.

The pig was about to turn back and kill it, but it seemed to sense some danger, so it stopped for a moment and ran away.

They then had the chance to call for backup.

However, because the signal in the ravine was poor, Dao Meihua had to climb to the bottom of the cliff with a walkie-talkie to barely get through.

"Wild boar? There are a lot of wild boars on this mountain?"

"There should be quite a lot." Brother Li and one of the logisticians nodded at the same time. "Our two villages are quite far from each other, but both have experienced wild boars damaging crops to varying degrees. Before I came here, I heard that our township had already formed a pig-hunting team. They said they would try to kill them this month, and the target seemed to be ten pigs. The government would give a subsidy of 1,800 yuan per pig."

The requirements for hunting wild boars are also very strict. You cannot use a gun without a gun license. You can only chase them with hunting dogs and give the final blow with a knife or spear.

But now the market price of hunting dogs has also risen, and they have to be disposed of harmlessly, so the actual profit is not much.

Just think about it, a car, four or five people, a dozen dogs, and a drone for searching. Sometimes you can't find a wild boar for several days. You have to pay for your own food, drink, and defecation. It's better to work.

"Last year, the crops my family planted were severely damaged. My father and the villagers were chasing pigs and were chased. He sprained his ankle while trying to escape and it took him almost three months to recover."

When it comes to wild boars, Brother Li and several other local guys all look disgusted and hateful.

There are still too few top-level beasts, and this is the harm of an incomplete food chain.

Like in Jiamugou, there are groups of big cats. There is always enough food, not enough to eat.

Chen Ying never hides anything from his brothers.

He always carries the life-saving medicine with him, which was personally made by his senior brother and teacher. The efficacy of the medicine is definitely not comparable to the common currency on the market.

After taking a pill, acupuncture and applying medicine, Yin Li finally woke up around ten o'clock in the evening. He was still a little dizzy, but he didn't feel like vomiting.

"His pulse has returned to normal. Please stay for two more days and let him recover before leaving. You also need to take care of your injuries."

Chen Ying brought a lot of topical anti-inflammatory and traumatic medicines.

Everyone should eat what they need and apply what they need. If the injuries are minor, they will be fine after a good night's sleep.

Yin Li couldn't fall asleep after waking up, and he couldn't move, so he lay in the tent and chatted quietly with Chen Ying.

Just then, the tent door was pushed open and a furry head squeezed in.

Because Chen Ying and his friends in the tent had not rested yet, the people in the other two tents closed the tent doors and went to sleep, waiting to be replaced in the second half of the night.

So when the mountain king squeezed in, no one else saw him, but the people in Chen Ying's tent were so scared that they couldn't make a sound.

Chen Ying had just finished examining Yin Li's arm when she turned around and saw the swollen cat head.

Just push it out.

"You guys rest first, I'll go take a look."

After Chen Ying came out, he grabbed the mountain king's neck and moved away a little bit, then squatted down.

"I have something to do tonight. My companion was injured by a wild boar and I have to take care of him. Can you go and play by yourself?"

The mountain king tilted his head, put his nose close to Chen Ying's hand and sniffed it, then turned back to the tent, walked around Yin Li who was lying on the ground, then lowered his head and sniffed his hand and leg for a while before leaving.

After the mountain king left, Yin Li finally let out the long breath that had been stuck in his chest.

"Why do I feel like the tiger is here to pay homage to my body?" He said jokingly with a wry smile. Lao Gao beside him tucked in the blanket for him and said nothing.

The aura of this tiger is completely different from that of the previous Uncle Tiger and the two Siberian tigers.

Uncle Hu is old and kind, while Da Hu and Dong Sheng have health problems and are timid and unconfident.

But this tiger is different, it is domineering and confident, which is a temperament that only nature can cultivate.

Outside, Chen Ying watched the Mountain King come out of the tent. After growling at him, he disappeared into the darkness with a few leaps.
