Lu Xiao tentatively reached out his finger and gently scratched the white little fox's chin.
The little guy squinted his eyes comfortably and raised his neck for Lu Xiao to scratch.
When the other red fox hanging on his trousers saw this, it snorted a few times in dissatisfaction and climbed onto Lu Xiao's backpack. It fell down like a scammer, revealing its furry belly and wanting to scratch it.
"The two of you sure know how to follow the flow…You don't even need to grab me, that saves me a lot of trouble.”
Lu Xiao smiled helplessly and shook his head. He also scratched the little red fox's belly with a bowl of water.
These two little foxes were sensible. They didn't even need the professor to catch them. They came to their doorstep.
I remember that when I went out for a field trip before, the little wolf I picked up also gave me some food and left.
"Yes, the young mammoths in this period are the easiest to deceive. Their instinct tells them to only recognize food and follow them when they are given something to eat.”
Lu Xiao smiled and said,"
"However, if you encounter such animal cubs in the wild, you can't use food to trap them. Instead, you have to search the vicinity first to confirm that they have been abandoned before rescuing them.
This was because there were many active little things that would climb out of their nests by themselves, but they wouldn't be able to climb far.
If the parents of the child found out that the child was stolen and left your scent nearby, they might track you down.
I once had an unlucky intern who brought a little monkey back to the reserve base without confirming the situation nearby.
In the end, although the little monkey was sent back, the gate of the base was still filled with feces for a month.
That scene is too beautiful. I don't dare to look at it."
Lu Xiao shook his head as he wanted to stuff the two little fellows into the trap cage that he had just prepared.
However, just as his hand touched the two little furballs that had burrowed into the bag, he felt their thin bodies trembling slightly.
The two little furs that had not yet grown up could not withstand being frozen on the ice surface for so long.
Lu Xiao's heart softened, so he did not insist on taking them out and let them stay in the bag.
Although it couldn't be compared to the soft and warm grass nest, it was still able to block the wind.
After carefully searching around the small pool and searching all the possible locations where the foxes might have built their nests, Lu Xiao was able to confirm that the two little guys were indeed abandoned.
"I think so. I'll bring the two of you to the reserve base. There'll be milk and meat to eat there.”
Lu Xiao lowered his head and smiled as he looked into the bag through the gap.
It was unknown if it was because they were full or too tired, but the two little fluffballs had already squeezed into a ball and fell asleep.
Considering that the two little fellows needed more food and a warm environment to recuperate, Lu Xiao did not waste any more time on the road. He quickly rushed to the coordinates given by the base where the Snowfield Tiger was admitted.
Because they had sped up, they finally arrived before the sun set.
"Professor Lu, hello, hello!"
Because they had contacted him in advance, the person in charge of the base was already waiting at the door. When he saw Lu Xiao's figure from afar, he jogged up to him and excitedly held Lu Xiao's hand tightly, saying,
"I'm Hong Mingcheng, the person in charge here. You can just call me Old Hong! Come in quickly!"
"Alright, alright."
How could Lu Xiao not see Hong Mingcheng's excitement? He smiled and nodded before following him into the courtyard.
Looking around the entire courtyard, although it was called a " base ", it was actually just a relatively spacious courtyard, and it was the kind that was very old and dilapidated.
"Professor Lu, our conditions here are really not good. I'm sorry to make a fool of myself…"
Seeing Lu Xiao sizing up the layout of the courtyard, Hong Mingcheng scratched his head in embarrassment and whispered.
"What are you talking about? You're a rare protected animal that can persist in living here under such difficult conditions. We should be thanking you. Why would we complain that this place is not good?”
Lu Xiao shook his head and said solemnly.
"That, that's good."
Hearing Lu Xiao's words, Hong Mingcheng was slightly relieved."
"Did you walk for a long time? Come in with me and rest for a while. Drink some hot oil tea to warm your body.”
"No need. I'll put down my things. Take me to see that Snow Tiger first. If I don't see its condition quickly, I won't be at ease.”
Lu Xiao shook his head and went straight to the point.
"Alright, then I'll bring you there. It's in the wing room at the end of the courtyard.”
Hong Mingcheng was actually very anxious. When he heard Lu Xiao say this, he was 100 percent willing.
Taking out the first aid kit from his suitcase, Lu Xiao followed Hong Mingcheng to the side room at the edge of the courtyard.
"Because its wound is really special, the smell in the room is not very good. Professor Lu, please bear with it.”
"I've seen this kind of scene many times. It's fine. Just bring me in.”
Lu Xiao nodded.
The door of the room was pushed open, and as expected, an unbearable stench of decay mixed with the smell of excrement assaulted their noses.
Lu Xiao's expression did not change. His gaze immediately fell on the Snowfield Tiger in the cage in the corner.
The Snowfield Tiger was very big, but the shape of its bones could clearly be seen. It was obviously very thin.
His injured eyes were tightly shut, and his eyelids were red and swollen. He could no longer open them.
Yellow-green pus flowed down the corners of his eyes, staining most of the fur on both sides of his cheeks.
It looked so miserable that even Lu Xiao, who was used to such scenes, could not help but frown slightly.
It was not because this scene was too disgusting, but because he felt sorry for this Snow Tiger.
Squatting beside the iron cage, Lu Xiao looked at its eyes.
Although it was swollen due to inflammation, the middle of the eyeball was sunken.
Lu Xiao's heart sank.
He probably couldn't keep his eyes anymore.
"Professor Lu, be careful. Its eye pain reflex is very strong. It will fly into a rage if you touch it slightly. That's why we don't dare to apply medicine on it.”
Seeing that Lu Xiao was about to make a move, Hong Mingcheng reminded him in a low voice with some worry.
