Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl-Chapter 100: Studious Baby Bear, Going Crazy Online (Extra)

Professor Bai's phone call saved him.

It just so happened that a marine research team at Agricultural University was looking for a project. Hearing that the center wanted to release a Wild Second Generation Chinese giant salamander, the team leader approached Professor Bai, hoping to leverage Director Bai's connections.

Originally, Professor Bai planned to ask Chen Ying if he knew about this, only to learn that his student was worrying over it.

Well, an assistant that presents themselves willingly should not be wasted.

It was a win-win situation for everyone.

The temporary home for the giant salamander had been set up in the spot where Black Bear Sister used to bathe.

It still occasionally came over to soak, but it had gotten colder these past few days, and Miss Bear hadn't appeared in almost a week.

Although the pool couldn't completely compare to a wild environment, it was still more suitable than a metal water tank.

Master Yi even went and found several large rocks with suitable shapes to build a mock wild cave in one corner of the pool for the giant salamander.

Though the old masters weren't eloquent, their actions were enough to put many smooth talkers to shame.

It would be two more days before the student research team from Agricultural University arrived.

In the meantime, the care of the giant salamander was entrusted to Uncle Yi.

Chen Ying received the examination results for the Little Monkey, good, very nice; Monkey Mother really took great care of her child.

He had originally wanted to keep the Little Monkey here, but seeing its pitiful look, he couldn't bear it and quietly took the Little Monkey to the emergency station.

After all, the emergency station also had a treatment room, and it didn't violate the regulations against privately keeping wild animals.

Little Sen was alone at the emergency station.

Because Panda Mother and Great Bai were there, other predators didn't dare approach easily. Aside from having to take care of Baby Bear a bit more each day, he was relatively more relaxed compared to Duanmu and the others.

"Old Gao went up to the bird watching station at the mountain. There was a heavy rain the day before yesterday, and he couldn't contact his junior brothers and sisters. He headed up the mountain as soon as the rain stopped."

Seeing the worried look on Dr. Gao, Chen Ying felt extremely relieved that he hadn't chosen to continue with a PhD; otherwise, Dr. Gao's today would have been his tomorrow.

The professors somehow always managed to overwork those they found handy. Dr. Gao's Mediterranean was already taking shape.

Baby Bear, seeing Chen Ying return, happily stuffed its paws into its mouth and twisted its body, an overjoyed look.

Little Monkey, seeing it gnaw on its paws, curiously stretched out its head to see what the big fellow was eating.

Baby Bear got startled and whimpered as it retreated, accidentally doing a backflip and turning into a leaking dumpling.

Little Monkey also shrank back, watching it roll and actually wanting to mimic it, but Chen Ying quickly grabbed it by the back of its neck.

"Your arm isn't healed yet; what are you flipping for?"

He placed Little Monkey on his shoulder to sit properly and casually picked up Baby Bear to weigh it.

"Okay, you've gained quite a bit; your Brother Xia has fed you well."

Little Sen grinned, revealing his teeth.

Coincidentally, just after dinner that evening as Little Sen was massaging Baby Bear's paws and Chen Ying was teaching Little Monkey how to peel tomatoes, Dr. Gao came down the mountain with his junior brothers and sisters.

Beside them, the mother wolf and Duoduo followed, as if protecting them.

"Have you eaten? Shall I stir-fry a couple of dishes and cook some noodles for you?"

"Sure, thanks, Old Chen."

Dr. Gao sat down to catch his breath, asking his juniors to put down their things and rest as well.

"Last time Designer Cao came here, he thought the medical station lacked sufficient resting places for people."

"The emergency room has strict controls on who can come and go, and the second floor is a living area, so they simply made a row of long benches under the handrail on the first floor using wood and carbonized wood panels."

"The space underneath has a height of two meters, so sitting or standing normally won't hit anyone's head."

"It's been cold in the mountains these past few days, right? Are you guys still planning to go up?"

"No need to go to the bird watching station this time, we'll switch locations next time."

Dr. Gao sipped some hot water. "Old Yin sent me some photos; there seems to be a community of green-tailed rainbow pheasants near the snow line. I plan to take these two there to stay for a few days."

Little Sen grimaced—it was tough for those who conducted bird research. Such high altitudes, such difficult terrain, and even resupplying was a challenge.

Chen Ying listened from the kitchen for a while, not really advising them to go up this season. But it wasn't certain they would listen to him; the pace of the project wouldn't wait for anyone.

After chatting for a while, Dr. Gao looked up and noticed a monkey perched on the handrail.

"Hey, Old Chen, where did you get this little monkey from? This species doesn't seem like it's from around here, right?"

"It was rescued from Gula Gully, an orphaned little monkey; we had to bring it here."

"Oh, it lost its mom, huh? What about its troop? They don't want it either?"

Don't think monkeys can't understand human speech. It was smart enough and knew Dr. Gao was talking about its mom; with big, sorrowful eyes, it darted into the room, climbed up onto Chen Ying's shoulder, and clung to his head without moving.

"There, there, he's the bad one; in a bit, Brother will teach him a lesson for you."

After soothing it for a while and picking out a piece of apple from Baby Bear's stash for it to gnaw on, Chen Ying carried it down and sat across from Dr. Gao and his group.

"If you're going up, I suggest you enter from Guer Gully and take the northern route, first go directly to the Highland Police Station to rest for a day, then head up the mountain to find the green-tailed rainbow pheasants."

Chen Ying had many photos on his phone; the one they saw previously was just a single bird. When they were descending the mountain, they spotted a flock near some shrubs on the cliff edge.

"The wind from the north slope is a bit milder, and although the path is steeper, it actually feels easier to walk than the southern route. Also, when you stay at the police station, get in touch with the Tibetan uncle, offer him some compensation, and ask him to help you with resupplying."

Thinking of what Suo Wang had said, the shepherds would gather near the station to spend the winter when the weather got colder. Although he wasn't sure exactly when they would return, if the uncle was willing to help, finding a guide for them wouldn't be an issue.

Dr. Gao was experienced, but compared to the locals, he was no match.

As for whether his two junior fellow researchers could endure the mountain, he had his reservations.

Another advantage of taking the northern slope was that if they couldn't adapt to the high-altitude, cold climate, they could quickly retreat down to the plain.

The police station had an oxygen generator; although it wasn't as good as hospital equipment, it was completely adequate for daily oxygenation.

"Wow, Old Chen, impressive!" Dr. Gao breathed a sigh of relief and gave a thumbs up.

"You really solved a lot of my problems with this trip. When we come down the mountain, I'll treat you to a yak soup hotpot, all you can eat, or a whole roasted lamb if you prefer."

"Forget it, I didn't even get to see what the bottom of the hotpot looked like last time you promised to treat."

Hearing Chen Ying tease his senior, Su Ji and Lu Qi dared not laugh out loud but bowed their heads and tried hard to restrain themselves.

"You two go ahead and laugh. Don't you see whom I owe favors for?"

Lu Qi pushed up his glasses. "Brother Ying, when I get back, I'll send you some delicacies from my hometown, really tasty, I guarantee it won't be all talk like our senior brother here."

Seeing this, Dr. Gao pretended to hit him, and Lu Qi dodged, but accidentally fell to the ground.

Seeing him fall, Baby Bear immediately followed suit, tumbling left and right, forward and backward, rolling joyfully on the first-floor platform.

The little monkey had never seen Baby Bear act so wild; thinking it was sick, it anxiously tugged at Chen Ying's sleeve, insisting he check on Baby Bear.

Everyone was laughing at the sight when two giant pandas walked over one after the other, leaned against the wooden platform, and breathed heavily.
