Chapter 23 Giant Panda: Love and Lack Are Very Clearly Expressed!
The giant panda was panicked.
It was happily eating wild fruit in the tree when suddenly several two-legged creatures appeared below.
What should we do?
Waiting in the tree, it's getting urgent.
Not only was it panicked, but everyone in the expedition team panicked when they saw the giant panda.
"My goodness, a giant panda!"
"Ah! Alive! Alive!"
"Back off! Back off!"
The group shouted excitedly, and Captain Sun Wei quickly told everyone to step back.
When the expedition team goes out to conduct research, they try their best to avoid disturbing the lives of wild animals.
The only purpose was to record and set up infrared cameras, and incidentally shoot some video footage.
Giant pandas are excellent subjects, and the photographer has already aimed his lens at them.
What a fruitful day!
The most meaningful day of this Qinling expedition!
Xu Ran remained quite calm.
He was planning how to complete the task.
The task requires you to feed a wild beast to build a good relationship with it.
Looking at the entire Qinling Mountains, the most suitable species is naturally the wild giant panda.
Xu Ran took bamboo shoots out of the bamboo basket, held them, jumped up, stuffed them into a tree branch, and then stepped back a few steps to make room for the giant panda.
"This is the giant panda I met the day before yesterday. I recognize it. Its face is round and its body is round. It looks quite chubby."
Xu Ran said to the expedition team members.
Everyone's attention was focused on the giant panda.
"That's wonderful! We saw many rare and protected animals during this expedition, but this is the first time we've encountered a giant panda!"
At this moment, team leader Sun Wei said with great excitement.
"Previously, rangers from various regions conducted surveys with us and we saw takins, golden monkeys, crested ibises, and swans, but we never encountered pandas, which we all found regrettable."
"I didn't expect the final inspection to be so successful."
"Director Xu, thank you so much."
Hearing this, Xu Ran smiled and said, "I was lucky. To be honest, it was the first time I had ever seen a wild giant panda a couple of days ago."
As the two were talking, the giant panda climbed down from the tree, picked up the bamboo shoot that Xu Ran had fed it, and then quickly climbed back up the tree.
It is cautious and rather afraid of humans.
However, after realizing that the humans posed no danger, the giant panda gradually relaxed.
Giant pandas are very intelligent.
Some wild giant pandas roam near mountain villages inhabited by humans. They seem to know that humans will not harm them, and sometimes they will swagger along the mountain paths.
When tourists encountered the giant panda in their cars, they slowed down to follow it. The panda simply glanced back calmly and continued on its way at a leisurely pace.
Unfortunately, other animals are classified as Class I protected animals because they meet the standards for Class I protection, while giant pandas are Class I protected animals simply because they are only Class I protected animals.
It's a national treasure; foreign countries would have to spend tens of millions to rent it.
"The ecology here is getting better and better, and the wild giant pandas are in very good condition, round and chubby."
Sun Wei sighed again.
Everyone nodded.
Seeing wild giant pandas is a real treat.
This giant panda is so cute!
Xu Ran remained silent, but her eyes held a hint of a smile as she looked at the panda.
The panda's smile became even more pronounced after it ate the bamboo shoots.
[The task of feeding the exotic beast is complete.]
[Rewards: 1. Favorability with the alien beast, 2. Radiation removal potion.]
A notification appeared on the panel.
I've received another reward!
Such days are truly leisurely.
Everything is the best arrangement.
After finishing the bamboo shoots, the giant panda looked down at the expedition team.
"It's watching us!"
"I'm so happy," reporter Li Rou said with delight.
The giant panda clumsily climbed down from the tree, its movements unsteady, and landed on the ground.
"They're down! They're down!"
"I'm excited," said Wu Fei, a member of the expedition team, in a low voice.
Everyone was both surprised and a little nervous.
Giant pandas are cute, but they are still bears after all, and it can be quite scary if they pounce on you.
Fortunately, the expedition team was quite large, and apart from the reporters, they were all strong and healthy men, so it was safe for everyone to be gathered together.
The giant panda stood on all fours, its eyes fixed on Xu Ran.
It tilted its head, its eyes filled with curiosity.
"Director Xu, it looks like it's watching you."
After noticing the panda's gaze, Li Rou whispered a reminder.
Xu Ran nodded. "It must be because I fed it twice that it didn't reject me."
"However, everyone should still be careful. Wild giant pandas still retain their wild nature, and they could be quite frightening if they went berserk."
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant panda suddenly walked towards everyone.
As it moved forward, the members of the expedition team all retreated.
I have to return it!
This big guy's claws look very sharp.
But Xu Ran did not move.
He can now sense the giant panda's emotions, which are currently stable, and the panda is showing affection towards Xu Ran.
Seeing the giant panda approach Xu Ran, the others couldn't help but feel nervous, their palms even sweating.
The sight of a wild giant panda coming into close contact with a human is truly terrifying.
"Director Xu, come back!"
"It's coming! Watch out!"
Two people offered their reminders.
Xu Ran smiled and replied:
"Don't worry, I spent time with it the day before yesterday, and this panda isn't afraid of me."
Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback.
Is this a question about giant pandas not being afraid of you?
This is a question about whether you're not afraid of giant pandas!
Too dangerous!
Just as everyone was about to warn him, the giant panda had already walked up to Xu Ran.
The person and the panda were very close together.
The closer you get, the more you can see how enormous the giant panda is.
Although it is not as tall as a human when it climbs down, its round belly is more than twice the size of a human.
It even feels like it could easily hug a human.
Then, something even more terrifying happened. The giant panda poked its head out, its nose close to Xu Ran's belly, and was actually sniffing Xu Ran's scent!
The man and the bear were incredibly close!
"what!"
Li Rou was so frightened that she covered her mouth, afraid to make a sound.
The others all looked surprised.
If a giant panda were to suddenly bite it, I can't even imagine what would happen.
At this moment, Xu Ran reached out and pressed down on the panda's head.
"Stop smelling it, Fatty."
In those few short seconds, Xu Ran had already come up with a name for it.
The giant panda then stopped.
Xu Ran observed the panda up close.
He was plump and strong.
It's chubby and has a sturdy build.
It seems to be living quite well in this bamboo forest, and its health is also excellent.
In fact, the survival rate of wild animals is not high. Those that grow up are all superior individuals, while inferior individuals have long been eliminated.
Otherwise, wild tigers would be full of murderous intent, while bred tigers would be somewhat silly and cute.
The reason why wild tigers can survive is because they have already been selected by nature.
The giant panda approached Xu Ran without resisting, allowing Xu Ran to pet it.
The nearby expedition team was so shocked that their mouths dropped open, and they stood frozen in place.
What's going on?
Isn't this the Qinling Mountains?
Why does it feel like we're in a zoo?
Are wild giant pandas not afraid of people?
Let Xu Ran touch you?
"Is he not afraid of people?"
Wu Fei, a member of the expedition team, was quite bold. When he saw this scene, he became interested and wanted to touch the panda, so he walked over to it.
The panda that noticed him immediately adopted a defensive posture and took several steps back.
Wu Fei immediately stopped in his tracks.
Love and lack thereof are clearly expressed.
Everyone can see that the giant panda doesn't trust anyone at all.
"Wu Fei, don't go over there, the giant panda is on guard."
"Don't provoke it!"
Team leader Sun Wei quickly reminded him.
Wu Fei could tell that the giant panda was very wary, so he could only nod and return to the group.
"Captain, you'd better not come any closer. It's probably because I come to the mountains often that the animals there recognize me, so they're generally not afraid of me."
"We still need to be careful."
Xu Ran immediately reminded him.
Then, he looked at the giant panda, waved his hand, and said, "Little Fatty, there are too many people today, you go first, I'll come see you again later."
Hearing Xu Ran's words, the giant panda relaxed again. It glanced at Xu Ran, then turned around and slowly crawled away.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the giant panda leave.
"Immediately install cameras; this area has been designated as a key site for investigation and protection."
"We can mark this area on our map as the giant panda's habitat."
Sun Wei busied himself getting everyone to work.
Xu Ran felt much more relaxed.
He had nothing to do, so he found a place to sit down and rest.
Reporter Li Rou immediately called over the photographer to conduct the interview.
Xu Ran was participating in the field trip for the first time and found it novel and interesting.
It brought him a lot of joy in his leisurely farm life.
