People are in Taoyuan, there are really no beasts in the mountains behind my home

Chapter 9 I found a turtle!

The news that a large soft-shelled turtle was dug up in the fish pond in Linbei's courtyard spread like wildfire in the small mountain village.

only half an hour
Many surrounding folks came to the yard of Lin Bei's house to watch the excitement.

More than a dozen folks surrounded Linbei's small courtyard with water tight.

Along with the mud-covered turtle, Lin Bei washed it with clean well water.

The tan shell is exposed, and green moss is still stuck on the thick turtle shell.

"Xiao Lin, where did you catch this big turtle? It's so big, I haven't seen such a big turtle for a long time." An uncle in the village laughed.

"Yeah, this turtle has grown for at least decades, right? Look at the hem of this skirt, it's really thick."

"This soft-shelled turtle has not been seen in our village for decades. Xiao Lin, is this soft-shelled turtle really dug out from your fish pond?" Several villagers asked curiously.

"Well, this big guy was indeed dug out from my fish pond, but this soft-shelled turtle seems a little different."

Lin Bei said while turning the turtle at his feet upside down.

The soft-shelled turtle with the size of a washbasin was turned over, revealing four claws immediately, and began to struggle. The white skirt and abdomen attracted the amazement of everyone in the live broadcast room.

"I'll go, this soft-shelled turtle should be wild, the belly is so white!!"

"I heard that this kind of big wild turtle can be sold for two to three hundred yuan per catty."

"Really? I think this soft-shelled turtle is very big, it should weigh thirty catties."

Do you believe in light? : "Anchor, is this big turtle for sale?"

Selling wild Ultraman: "This wild turtle is nutritious. Where are you, the anchor? I will pay you 3 yuan. Sell this turtle to me!"

Loitering middle-aged man: "I pay [-]! Recently my wife said that I'm not good enough, and I want to make up for it, so the anchor will leave it to me!"

Several viewers in the live broadcast room said one after another.

At this moment, Lin Bei was looking at the big soft-shelled turtle seriously, not knowing what he was observing.
After about five or six minutes, Lin Bei glanced at the barrage.

"Everyone, don't think about buying this big guy, this thing can't be sold!" Lin Bei explained.

"Can't sell it? Xiao Lin, this thing should go to the vegetable market. It can sell for at least a few thousand yuan."

"Yeah, if you sell this thing, you can earn thousands of dollars."

"Not for sale? Are you going to eat it yourself, Xiaolin? Hehe, uncle is going to try something new."

The surrounding villagers all laughed.

"Anchor, don't you sell this big turtle? Some people have already bid [-], and you don't sell it? Are you stupid?"

"Damn it, this is more than 3 yuan, the anchor is out of his mind, right?"

"If it were me, I would definitely sell it without hesitation, and it would be equivalent to my salary for several months."

"Yeah, if you want me, you'll sell it too!!"

"Maybe the host thinks the money is low?"

Selling Wild Ultraman: "Anchor, I'll offer [-] yuan! I'm in the catering business. If you agree, I'll transfer the money immediately. When the time comes, I'll arrange someone to pick up this big turtle. What do you think?"

The audience in the live broadcast room were also stunned when they heard Lin Bei's words. It cost tens of thousands of dollars, but they didn't sell it, so they asked curiously.

"After my careful observation, this big guy is actually not a soft-shelled turtle, but a giant turtle. Do you know what kind of animal a turtle is?" Lin Bei said with a smile.

"sea turtle???"

"What is Yuan??"

"Isn't this a soft-shelled turtle? Why did it return the turtle?"

"Bosses, how did you type this word?"

"I don't know, ask for science!!"

"The same question, what is Yuan? Is it a close relative of the bastard??"

"Yaru? If it is a turtle, it really can't be sold. It seems to be a national protected animal, right?"

"What? Can this turtle become a protected animal??"

"Is it cheating? Did you do it on purpose, anchor, to be on the hot search?"

The audience in the live broadcast room sent a barrage.

"The turtle is the largest of the turtles."

"The proboscis is extremely short, less than half of the diameter of the eye; the tail ends beyond the skirt. The body length is about 600mm."

"The head is quite small, the snout is round and short, the nostrils are at the end of the snout, the eyes are small, and the back of the head is broad and smooth."

“The back is flat and broadly round, the carapace is boney, the anterior edge is cut flat, the posterior edge is slightly concave, full of concave markings and the lateral edge is quite clear in worm-like shape, and the bone plate is still thick at the edge.”

"There are 8 vertebral plates, the front 4 are hexagonal, the 5th lamina is oval or sub-rectangular, the short sides of the 3 posterior are facing forward, only the 8th lamina is small pentagonal, and the top of the inner web forms an acute angle or meet."

"Smooth head, wart-free neck, white ventrally."

"A turtle as big as a washbasin like this one is generally very rare and belongs to endangered and protected animals."

"But it's really strange that this giant turtle is hidden in my fish pond."

Lin Bei explained.

"What, is this thing a turtle???"

"Don't tell me, the anchor's science popularization is really similar. Look at the head, it's a bit different from the soft-shelled turtle."

"It's true that turtles have a pointed head, and most turtles have a pink belly."

"Damn it, did the anchor really dig to protect animals??"

"Yuan, I've rarely heard of this kind of animal, but I do know about giant pandas."

"Fuck, if this is sold, I guess there will be a judge in the life of the anchor."

"Hey, I guess it will start in three years, will it be indefinite?"

"Is the big brother upstairs who wants to buy it still there? Are you still buying it now? Hahaha."

"What level of animal protection does this turtle, the anchor, belong to?"

The audience in the live broadcast room asked curiously.

"Pittoria is a first-class protected animal!"

"Plus tortoises inhabit mainly inland, slow-flowing freshwater rivers and streams."

"There is some evidence that they can also live in coastal areas. They don't migrate very much and prefer to live on the bottom of the water."

"It hides in the water during the day, often comes out of the water to breathe, and looks for food in the shallows at night. It likes to live in groups and has a long life span."

"The biggest instinct of the turtle is that it can not only breathe with its lungs, but also with its skin, and even absorb oxygen through its throat, so it can live in water for a long time."

"Pittoria is an ambush predator, carnivorous, feeding mainly on crustaceans, molluscs and fish."

Lin Bei continued to popularize science.

"What? Xiaolinzi, isn't this a turtle? Is this a protected animal?"

"My god, I almost persuaded you to sell it!!"

"This is a first-class protected animal??"

"This animal is called a turtle??"

The surrounding villagers also talked in shock.

"That's right, uncles and uncles, this is not a soft-shelled turtle, but a protected animal. I will contact the staff of the Forestry Bureau later to see how to deal with it." Lin Bei explained with a smile.

Taking out his mobile phone, Lin Bei called Bureau Zhao.

"Hello? Is this Director Zhao?" Lin Bei asked softly.

"Xiao Lin? What's the matter? Is there something wrong with the wild elephant?" Zhao Benshui on the other end of the phone asked with concern.

"Zhao Ju, it's not about the wild elephants, it's because I dug up a turtle in the yard." Lin Bei explained.

"What??? Yuan!!"

"Xiao Lin, don't joke with me, we haven't found this animal in Huxi City yet." Zhao Benshui on the other end of the phone said in shock.

"How dare I lie to you, it's at my house, you should send someone over quickly."

"Okay, I'll arrange someone to come over right away, no, I'll come over right away!" After finishing speaking, Zhao Benshui hung up the phone hastily.

On the other hand, the news of Yuan found in the Linbei live broadcast room instantly caused a sensation in the major live broadcast rooms.

The number of live viewers online rose from 6 to 20 to [-] in an instant, and it was still rising.

In an outdoor anchor live broadcast room, a young and beautiful female anchor with revealing clothes was holding a thick eel.

There is a trace of mucus on the surface of the eel, and it is constantly struggling. Half of its body is rolling in the damp and dark cave.
"oops!!!"

"Brothers, I can't catch it!!!"

"This eel is so slippery and thick!"

"Audience friends, what should I do??"

The female anchor shouted delicately.

"Hey, anchor, what kind of eel are you catching?"

The audience in the live broadcast room were excited.

Just as the female anchor grabbed a rice field eel and put it in the bucket, someone in the barrage said something, and the anchor next door dug out the protected animal.

In an instant, everyone in the live broadcast room was attracted by this news.

"What?? Protect animals? What protect animals?"

"Damn it, what did you dig it out of? Please tell me the room number."

"Let's go, let's go to the next door and have a look. This old woman excites me by digging eels every day."

"Let's go! Come together, brother take me."

In the blink of an eye, the audience in the female anchor's room was reduced by more than half in an instant.
