Section 1286 Island of Rare Beasts (Medium)
Although the surrounding trees are dense, and you can hear insects and birds, but after walking out hundreds of meters along the way, Long Kui and Jiugong didn't see any animals, birds or insects, which is really unreasonable, why can you hear insects and birds and beasts roaring but can't see the traces of these guys? Could it be that the creatures on this island are deliberately dodging Long Kui and Jiugong?
Jiugong is still very experienced in finding water sources on islands all year round, and it is very simple to find water sources on isolated islands like this overgrown with trees, because the closer to the water source area, the denser the trees become, so as long as they walk in the direction of dense trees, they will always find water!
Long Kui is really a child, playing and playing along the way, he really forgot about the business, and saw this girl running around, and when she saw beautiful flowers, she picked them, and made them into garlands and put them on her head, humming a little song in her mouth, and the melodious humming sound floated in the woods.
Just as Long Kui was walking deep into the woods with this wreath humming a song, she suddenly heard a strange noise in the grass on her left, Long Kui stopped, and then subconsciously turned his head to look at the grass, and when she looked over, the shaking of the grass and the sound coming from it were all gone!
Long Kui stared at the grass for a long time, and then he had the courage to walk cautiously to the grass, looking like he wanted to lift the grass to see what was here?
Jiugong, who was following behind, changed his face when he saw this situation, he knew very well that there were poisonous insects, snakes and ants in the grass of this isolated island, if he was bitten by these poisons, it would not be a joke!
Nervous, Jiu Gong hurriedly opened his mouth and shouted at Long Kui: "Kui'er~! Stop! Don't go..."
It's a pity that Jiugong's shout is still late, Long Kui has already lifted the grass, and squatted down with a curious face, Jiugong in the distance was anxious when he saw this situation, and sped up his pace and trotted all the way to Long Kui.
"Why can't you be obedient, kid, I wouldn't have taken you out if I had known you were like this!" Seeing Long Kui squatting there, there was nothing unusual Jiu Gong exhaled, but he still said with a complaining face!
"Grandpa Jiugong, what do you look at?" Just as Jiugong was complaining, Long Kui suddenly turned to face Jiugong with a small thing, and raised this little thing to Jiugong and asked!
Jiu Gong was also stunned by Long Kui's question, and then looked carefully at the thing that Long Kui was holding in his hand, this thing was fiery red, about the same size as a mouse, but the ears were small, the eyes were big, there were only two front teeth in the mouth, the body was round like a ball, and the tail was also a small meat ball, which looked very cute!
Jiu Gong seems to have some impression of such a thing, but he can't remember it for a while, Jiu Gong, who is truth-seeking, is thinking about what this thing is, and Long Kui put this little thing on the ground and teased it, this little thing is not afraid of people at all, he actually sat up with two little short legs to support his body, and then hugged Long Kui's hand with his front paws, so cute that people can't stand it!
Long Kui really likes this little thing, so he took out an oily paper bag from his arms, and opened the oily paper bag and took out a piece of dried fish, after handing the dried fish to this little thing, the little thing held the dried fish with his front paws and chewed it with a click, although there were only four front teeth up and down, but this little thing gnawed the dried fish very quickly, and gnawed the dried fish clean in a few clicks!
After eating the dried fish, the little thing actually stretched out two little claws and made a cry of "Wu Ka Wu Ka~" to Long Kui, as if he was asking for dried fish!
Long Kui saw that this little thing was cute, so he took out another piece of dried fish and gave it to it, and Jiu Gong, who was pondering on the side, suddenly showed a sudden expression of realization, and said: "I know what this little thing is, this is a fire spirit beast!"
"Fire Spirit Beast?Grandpa Jiugong, what is a Fire Spirit Beast?Why haven't I heard of this kind of fierce beast?" Long Kui was stunned for a moment when he heard Jiugong's words, and then asked, Recently, since learning to read and write with Long Tianci, Long Kui has almost seen the secretary that Long Tianci carries with him, and his knowledge has also increased a lot, but she remembers in a trance that she has never seen any introduction to fierce beasts such as fire spirit beasts in the book on the list of boundary-breaking fierce beasts.
Jiugong twisted his beard, and then said with a smile: "Kui'er, this is not a fierce beast, but a rare beast!
"Rare Beasts, what are Rare Beasts?" Long Kui hadn't touched on this knowledge yet, so he was very confused after hearing Jiugong's words.
In fact, to put it bluntly, rare beasts and fierce beasts are a kind of thing, but the reason why rare beasts are listed is mainly because of the rarity of rare beasts, on average, every ten years, the four continents will count the distribution of wild beasts on their continents and the number of groups, this is not only to prevent animal disasters, but also to protect those ferocious beasts that are about to become extinct, according to the law jointly formulated by the four continents, if the population of a certain beast is less than 10,000, it is an endangered species, and is included in the ranks of rare beasts, and gets corresponding protection. Jiugong explained.
"Protect the beasts, why do you do this?" Long Kui still couldn't understand, after all, in her impression, the beasts were everywhere, was it necessary to protect them?
Jiugong smiled bitterly, then shook his head and said: "Kui'er, you are still young, many things may not be understood, there are not only our four intelligent races in this world, but also other intelligent races and countless fierce beasts, our whole is the whole of breaking the boundary, and the destruction of the natural world is not a good thing for our four intelligent races, counting that in the past few thousand years, there are no less than five hundred fierce beasts that have completely disappeared in our hands, and that is five hundred races!"
"Extermination, do you mean you won't see it again?" Long Kui seemed to have some difficulty understanding the word extinction.
"Yes, I can't see it anymore!At least not in this world!" replied Jiugong with a bitter nod.
"I can't see it anymore, how pitiful that is!" Long Kui stared at the fire spirit beast that was holding the dried fish and gnawing there, and then muttered!
"Alas~!This is also a helpless thing, just like this fire spirit beast, growing in an area rich in geothermal energy, it has no aggression and harm in itself, and it is cute, so it was the most enthusiastic pet for many people back then, and then there is the fur of this rare beast because it is very resistant to flames, so it is very expensive, in order to get the fur of the fire spirit beast, the fire spirit beast has been hunted and killed in large quantities, and now there is basically no trace of the fire spirit beast in the four continents, maybe the isolated environment here makes the fire spirit beast survive a little!" Jiugong sighed and said!
