White armor

Chapter 256 Who is not a national protected animal?

"Professor Zhang..."

"Do you need me to contact your curator and the leaders of the Forestry Department?" Professor Zhang asked coldly.

"Okay." The staff member immediately backed down.

It's just work, no need to take it too seriously.

He contacted them immediately and then took Professor Zhang all the way to the provincial and rural roads, heading towards the Funiu Mountains.

"Where are we going?"

"Professor Zhang, go to the command center."

Damn, what the hell is this command center? It looks so formal, but it’s actually just a makeshift team. Professor Zhang felt contemptuous.

Many people have a yearning for the military, so much so that after setting up a company, they still want militarized management and completely ignore the basic needs of employees.

Everything looks like a human, just like a monkey in human clothing. Professor Zhang secretly complained in his heart.

"I heard that Zhuzi has gone deep into the mountains and was taking a bath just now."

"Oh, how long will this field training last?"

"12 hours."

With such a short time, what can be achieved through training?
Professor Zhang despised everything here and was dissatisfied with everything. He even wanted to kick wild dogs and foxes that appeared on the roadside in Funiu Mountain.

Soon, the car drove up the winding mountain road and gradually saw the crowd surging.

"Where is this going?"

"Professor Zhang, let's go to a Taoist temple in Funiushan Mountain."

"what?"

"It seems that Professor Luo is very familiar with the Taoist priest Qi in this Taoist temple, so the command center is temporarily placed in the Taoist temple."

There are countless flaws in this matter, which made Professor Zhang feel very dissatisfied.

When they arrived at the gate of the Taoist temple, Professor Zhang got out of the car and was stunned when he saw the couplets at the gate.

[It's just a few coins, you ask, he asks, who should I give it to?]

[You don't accumulate any virtue, you worship me in the morning and in the evening, which makes me feel embarrassed. ]

This Taoist temple is quite interesting, Professor Zhang thought to himself.

Although the couplets at the door discourage people from coming in, there are still people coming in and out.

"Originally, this place was not open to the public, as Taoist Priest Qi devoted himself to practicing Taoism. Our provincial capital's Ice and Snow Festival received a lot of attention in the past few years, and the tourism strategy formulated by the province has forced this place to be opened as a tourist attraction," explained the staff member.

"Oh."

Professor Zhang looked left and right, full of curiosity.

The eight characters on the door and walls are full of ancient Ming Dynasty style.

Professor Zhang couldn't understand the other things, so he just took a quick look and felt that this place had a profound heritage.

Strangely enough, some things are not found in the Northeast. If you see them in the water towns of Jiangnan, it is natural. But in the Northeast...

Professor Zhang thought this was interesting.

"Chen Yong, what's the situation over there?" Luo Hao's voice came from the backyard.

After hearing this, Professor Zhang immediately quickened his pace.

"It looks like a wild Siberian tiger. Luo Hao, if the Siberian tiger takes the initiative to provoke you, can you kill it?"

Professor Zhang was stunned for a moment.

Killing a Siberian tiger? A wild one? You must be kidding.

That's a Siberian tiger!
That's the king of the wild!!

Wild pandas are indeed ferocious beasts, but they are still a little inferior to tigers. After all, they are slightly inferior in size, bite force, and explosive power.

Even the most ferocious wild giant panda Professor Zhang has ever seen cannot be compared with the Siberian tiger in terms of statistics.

But Chen Yong asked for instructions on whether to kill the Siberian tiger. He was crazy.

"They are all first-class protected animals, but there are only about 500 Siberian tigers, which is even fewer than giant pandas. We should hide if we can."

"I'm worried that it will attack me," Chen Yong said. "If it attacks me, can I fight back?"

When Professor Zhang walked into the hall, four or five screens suddenly appeared in front of him. Professor Zhang was stunned.

This place is exactly the same as the combat command center in my impression!
Four or five screens were playing different images, and Professor Zhang was dazzled.

There was a screen with a very low sight line, moving through the grass, and nothing could be seen. There was another screen similar to it, also moving through the grass.

From the first perspective, it feels quite awkward.

There is also a screen looking down, which should be a drone shooting in the air.

In the picture, the mountain breeze blew, the leaves and weeds swayed, but there was no sign of giant pandas.

How unprofessional, Professor Zhang thought to himself.

But many people here are staring at this screen.

Professor Zhang looked carefully and seemed to see a strange figure that looked like a giant panda.

But it seemed as if I was dazzled and it was just an illusion caused by the wind blowing through the grass.

Looking more closely, Professor Zhang felt that it was, but looking even more carefully, it seemed not to be.

After watching it several times, Professor Zhang’s eyes started to feel blurry and he felt unwell all over.

It should be the giant panda Zhuzi, but that strange guy was big and strong, wearing camouflage clothes, lying on the ground, blending into the grass. Professor Zhang felt dizzy when he saw it.

The next second, Professor Zhang saw the giant panda Zhuzi, who was wearing camouflage clothes, stand up, holding a mace in his hand.

I am!

The mace is of standard type, the same type carried by the warriors fighting against India.

"Chen Yong, Chen Yong, don't go hunting tigers! They're first-class protected animals!" Luo Hao yelled.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak~~~" A burst of signal interference came from the intercom.

What is this?

Professor Zhang stared at the scene in a daze, completely unable to understand the logic behind it.

The bamboo just stood for a while and then lay down in less than 5 seconds. It was obvious that it was not familiar with the action of standing.

But even when he was lying down, you could still vaguely see the mace in Zhuzi's hand.

Does it need a slide tackle?
A strange idea popped into Professor Zhang's mind.

When encountering a tiger, a sliding tackle will end the fight. This was originally a joke among netizens.

But at this moment, Professor Zhang suddenly felt that it might be true.

Even without weapons, pandas can fight tigers head-on.

But can bamboo do it? How can a good baby who has been raised by a nanny fight a tiger? It's impossible, absolutely impossible!

The next second, a figure shuttled through the grass.

It's Luo Hao!
He was at the scene and went straight to the wild Siberian tiger!

Professor Zhang stared at the scene with wide eyes. At this moment he was expecting the Siberian tiger to be angered by Luo Hao.

The Siberian tiger doesn't care how many great gods are standing behind Luo Hao. In the eyes of the Siberian tiger, Luo Hao is just a walking piece of meat.

If Hupu could kill Luo Hao, he would have no more worries. Professor Zhang's heart began to burn.

"Luo Hao, be careful."

An old man gave instructions while holding a walkie-talkie.

But Luo Hao didn't say anything. He quickly ran to Zhuzi, grabbed Zhuzi's ear and told him to leave quickly.

Zhuzi seemed unwilling to give up, and the mace in his hand flashed with a cold light.

But it was still very obedient and threw the mace aside, put on its backpack and left quickly.

Professor Zhang felt that he was dazzled. It must be his eyes, otherwise how could he see the movement of the bamboo backpack!

Looking closely, the fat bear was indeed carrying a huge backpack, and no one knew what was inside.

"Brother! We are from here!" Luo Hao shouted.

"..."

Professor Zhang's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

The Siberian tiger in the distance glanced over here and didn't seem to have any hostility.

"Local people, if you pass by, say hello. Go over there and take a look!" Luo Hao continued to shout.

To Professor Zhang's surprise, the Siberian tiger actually turned around and staggered away in the opposite direction of the bamboo.

The atmosphere in the entire "Operation Hall" suddenly relaxed and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although no one knows the outcome of the fight between Bamboo and the Siberian tiger, no one wants to see this scene.

Luo Hao did not leave immediately, but stood in the grass and observed the movements of the Siberian tiger.

"Headquarters, headquarters, I'm Luo Hao."

"I'm headquarters."

"Is it the street kid who wandered from the Northeast to Siberia?"

"We don't know yet. This Siberian tiger doesn't have a number. Please be careful."

In the picture, Luo Hao turned off the walkie-talkie, picked up the mace, watched the Siberian tiger leave, then turned around to look for Chen Yong and Zhuzi.

This……

Professor Zhang stared at the scene in a daze, his mind confused.

In that brief moment, I not only didn't recognize bamboo, I didn't even recognize the Siberian tiger.

That's a beast! It's a beast!!

How come the Siberian tiger just left when Luo Hao said it was local? How wild! How brutal!

Where have they all gone!!
The inherent logic in Professor Zhang's mind was shattered, and he stared at the screen in a daze.

The drone flew in the air, and the picture then focused on the bamboo.

It was hiding its tracks and was covered in camouflage. If Professor Zhang hadn't been watching it carefully, he would have lost it long ago.

Even though the drone was locked onto the bamboo, Professor Zhang's eyes were blurry, his head was buzzing, and he felt dizzy from time to time.

What is all this? Professor Zhang almost cried.

I have studied giant pandas all my life, but I never imagined that wild giant pandas would be wearing camouflage uniforms and moving around in the jungle.

Is this a giant panda or a special forces soldier?

What the hell, is this considered releasing it into the wild?

"Be good, that thing is a Siberian tiger. You will probably only see it once in the wild in your life. There are fewer of them than us. If we kill one, there will be one less. Let's go find some silly roe deer." Chen Yong hugged the bamboo and chattered to it.

"Where's Luo Hao? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

The bamboo turned around and looked in the direction of Luo Hao. It even stood up and put its hands on the bamboo to look over there.

Soon, Luo Hao appeared in sight holding a mace.

"This thing is too heavy, it needs to be modified." Luo Hao said, "Please remember this."

"Headquarters, headquarters, call, call."

Chen Yong started calling headquarters.

“……” Professor Zhang looked at it in a daze.

"Just remember this. Also, the bamboo didn't stand for long enough, so its explosive power after it stood upright was a little lacking."

"Bamboo, it's ferocious." Chen Yong patted Bamboo's head.

Zhuzi bared his teeth at Luo Hao and looked fierce, but then he sat down, hugged Luo Hao's thighs and started to act coquettishly.

"No way." Luo Hao said with a smile, "Let's stay away from those things. Their protection level is higher than ours. I will definitely ask them when I go back. If I encounter similar protected animals in Qinling Mountains in the future, what should I do if something happens?

Don't deny this and that, we are all first-class protected animals in the country." "Let's go." Luo Hao held the mace and patted Zhuzi's head.

Zhuzi stood up, and Professor Zhang immediately saw a huge camouflage bag on his back.

"Where are you going?" Chen Yong asked.

"Let's find a cool place and let the bamboos wander around. It's only June, why is it so hot?" Luo Hao muttered, "They say the weather is getting warmer, and it's true."

“In the past few years, elephants have been migrating back to the South River.”

"Well, there are elephants."

The two chatted and came to the shade of a tree. Luo Hao threw the mace in his hand aside, and a dull "bang" sound was heard.

Professor Zhang's eyelids twitched. Originally, he saw Luo Haoxin carrying the mace effortlessly and thought it was just a showpiece. He didn't expect that this thing was actually real!
Judging from the sound, it must be dozens of pounds heavy?
Luo Hao just "strolled" back home carrying a genuine mace weighing dozens of kilograms? !

Professor Zhang's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly.

Young people are full of vigor and vitality, and they are gifted with supernatural powers. If I push myself too far, what if I get beaten up in the meeting place?

Although he will be punished by law, standing behind Luo Hao are the Twilight Gods.

The ability to turn big things into small things and small things into nothing is certainly not lacking, and it can certainly be done.

I am!

Thinking of this, Professor Zhang noticed that there were two familiar masters at the scene.

In the picture, the bamboo is crawling, looking around, and coming to a small stream.

"This water is nice, there are lots of fish." Chai Lao muttered to himself, "Old Zhou, do you think we should equip the bamboo with a fishing rod?"

"It's instinct for a bear to catch fish. No matter how silly a panda is, it's still a bear, not a cat."

"Cats can catch fish, too."

The conversation was simple and Professor Zhang was in a trance for a moment.

I have seen that thin and skinny old man before. He is Mr. Chai from Union Hospital. I went to see him for a medical consultation a long time ago.

Mr. Chai is a big shot in the industry, and I didn't expect to meet him here. But I knew him, but Mr. Chai didn't know me.

To Mr. Chai, he is just an ordinary "patient".

But before Professor Zhang could think about it, he saw that the bamboo was like a thief in the game, hiding among the grass and trees, slowly approaching, and then pounced out and grabbed a big bird that was calling by the river.

"The red-crowned crane in Qinling is an endangered species. This habit of bamboo is not good." Luo Hao's voice came from the intercom.

"This is not allowed, that is not allowed, this protection, that protection, just leave the bamboo to move." Chen Yong began to complain, "They are not allowed to do anything, just catch mice and chew bamboo every day. This is not the way to abuse children."

"The crested ibis, the crested ibis from Qinling Mountains! Be careful, this is the problem. Chen Yong, don't go to extremes."

Luo Hao did not complain with Chen Yong, but wanted to solve the problem seriously.

Professor Zhang didn’t care about the crested ibis or not. He had never thought that giant pandas could actually kill the crested ibis, an endangered protected animal.

The Crested Ibis is a bird!

Although there are many examples of giant pandas killing birds in the Northern, Adult and Mountain Animals, it is difficult for Professor Zhang to equate a cowardly animal like bamboo with the hunting of crested ibis.

In the picture, a bird has been eaten by bamboo.

Professor Zhang was stunned.

He was not feeling pity for a bird, but it was hard to find wildness in a panda, especially a little one like Bamboo who was raised by a nanny since childhood and had no wildness at all.

Beichuan eats wolf cubs because Beichuan itself is home to wild giant pandas, which is part of the natural food chain.

What on earth did Luo Hao do that could make the bamboo full of wildness while it was recovering from its injuries?

"Headquarters, Forestry Department leaders, can we touch wild animals? What level of wildlife is appropriate? Please give me a detailed list."

Luo Hao's voice suddenly came from the intercom.

The leader of the Forestry Department was sweating profusely.

In his opinion, they are all protected animals and cannot be touched!
The natural environment in Northeast China is now so good that Siberian tigers can occasionally be seen on rural and provincial roads; it is so good that any pheasant that flies out is a national second-class protected animal.

The one that Zhuzi just caught... seems to be a second-level protected animal.

But the second-level protected animal has disappeared. Zhuzi is washing his hands and face, and taking out a towel from his backpack to wipe off the blood stains on his body.

Clean and neat, as if he was a habitual offender.

Real punishment.

He said with a sad face, "Professor Luo, let's take the bamboo back."

"Huh? It's just the beginning. There are still 7 hours left."

"I will ask the government for advice on what to do with wild giant pandas. The one the bamboo just ate must be a white spoonbill."

"White Spoonbill? A national second-class protected bird?"

"Yes." The people from the Forestry Department were in tears.

Luo Hao was silent. "Forget it, let's pack up!"

The leader of the Forestry Department shook his body and was obviously much more relaxed.

We are all the bosses, we all protect animals, harmony brings wealth, and virtue wins people over. It is not good for anyone to hurt anyone.

Let's leave this trouble to the Forestry Department on the Qinling Mountains.

Bamboo is really a hot potato. Who would have thought that a giant panda that had just recovered from a serious injury could easily catch a white spoonbill.

The white spoonbill is very alert and sensitive. As long as no one attacks it, it can survive well in the wild.

That doesn’t count.

The main reason was that Bamboo saw that the Siberian tiger was not suppressed. Everyone could even feel that Bamboo was eager to try and make a sliding tackle on the Siberian tiger.

If I really wanted to gut the Siberian tiger and skin it... the scene would be too beautiful to look at.

It’s better to send this kind of uncle away.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be okay to put it in the panda house to act cute?

Why release them to harm other protected animals?

This is what the leaders of the Forestry Department think.

Chen Yong stood up, put his hand in his mouth and whistled.

In the picture, after eating the white ibis, Bamboo went to the stream to wash his hands and wipe his mouth, then opened his backpack and took out a towel from it to wipe his face.

This series of actions left Professor Zhang dumbfounded.

Beidong's Menger does wipe his face, but it is fundamentally different from the bamboo in front of him.

The bamboo's movements were gentle and skillful, just like a human wiping his mouth after a meal.

In Professor Zhang's memory, bamboo would not be wiped before being released into the wild.

Professor Zhang was a little dazed. He didn't quite understand what this scene meant.

Even after decades of research in this area, Professor Zhang still doesn't understand it.

Hearing the whistle, Zhuzi folded the towel and put it in his backpack. Professor Zhang was shocked to see Zhuzi zip up the backpack and then clumsily put it on his back.

Although it looks a little clumsy, the bamboo does it very well and it is obvious that it has learned it.

The next step is just becoming proficient.

Hemp egg!

Professor Zhang cursed in his heart.

Is this still a panda?

This is simply a spirit... No, there must be a person hiding in it!

Zhuzi put on his backpack, walked on all fours, and twisted his butt in a naive manner as he went to look for Luo Hao and Chen Yong.

The staff at the "Operation Center" located Luo Hao and told them where the car was.

Then Professor Zhang saw a bee fly up from the grass and land in Luo Hao's palm.

Drone?
Or a robot dog?
What the hell is that!
Everything he saw today overturned Professor Zhang's three views. He was a little confused, and there was nothing he could understand.

A drone that can fit in the palm of your hand and can run in the grass, what the hell is that!

Is it the military's secret weapon?

Have I been involved in confidential information?

As Professor Zhang thought about it, he felt a little panicked.

Originally, he had made full preparations and wanted to embarrass Luo Hao, but he knew the right measure. Then, he secretly told Luo Hao that if he wanted to apply for the position of Young Scholar, he would be a judge in the defense.

but!

These thoughts have long since vanished into thin air.

Professor Zhang wouldn't think so much.

After only a quick glance at the bamboo that could survive for 2 hours in the wild, Professor Zhang was certain that if this thing was released into the Qinling Mountains, it was hard to say whether it could reproduce, but it would definitely survive.

even!

Professor Zhang is sure that bamboo will become the king of the Qinling Mountains.

Be it clouded leopards, golden cats or golden monkeys, none of them are a match for a wild panda like this.

What’s more, this guy can use a fucking mace!

Professor Zhang kept replaying a scene in his mind - Zhuzi holding a mace and smashing the Siberian tiger's skull with one blow.

He even felt that this was not just his imagination.

If Luo Hao had not "driven away" the Siberian tiger, the tiger's life or death would have been in danger.

"Puff~"

Professor Zhang sat down on the ground.

His legs became weak and he could no longer stand.

Over the years, he tried to cultivate the wildness of the giant panda, but failed every time. But the same giant panda fell into Luo Hao's hands, and in a short period of time, it turned out to be a different bear.

I really don’t know how Luo Hao did it.

"what?"

Someone heard the sound and looked back.

"Professor Zhang, he insisted on coming to the combat center." The accompanying staff introduced.

"Zhu Zi did a good job. Some of the previously formulated contents need to be revised." Boss Zhou said softly, with his hands behind his back and his back straight, looking at the giant panda Zhu Zi who came back with Luo Hao and Chen Yong.

"Old Zhou, what else are you going to pair it with?"

"There are dozens of supply points. You can't always carry a mace with you. If you encounter a beast you can't deal with in the wild, you can retreat while fighting and come to a supply point to get supplies."

"Boss, the supply point needs to provide Beidong's steamed bread."

As soon as Professor Zhang was helped up, he heard the legendary steamed bread from the north.

"Although it tastes bad, it is rich in nutrients and can provide enough energy. By the way, the recipe of the steamed bread still needs to be modified. I will do it later."

"Professor Luo, is this still considered wild?" Professor Zhang asked tremblingly.

"Huh? Professor Zhang, you're here." Luo Hao couldn't see the entire picture of the combat center, but he recognized Professor Zhang's voice.

"Ah, I see."

Professor Zhang said in a daze.

He didn't even explain what he saw.

"It doesn't matter whether it's wild or not, what's important is breeding!" Luo Hao said firmly.

"We cannot go wild just for the sake of going wild. Our purpose is simple, direct and clear - breeding!"

Luo Hao's answer echoed like a loud bell into Professor Zhang's ears.

"As long as we can bring back a pregnant wild giant panda, it would be fine to carry a bamboo backpack and a few drones, right, Professor Zhang?"
