Chapter 115: Ocelot
The tents in Zhang Chen's campsite must be set up according to the standards of the camp, so all the tents from them are set up neatly, just like ancient military camps.
After Zhang Chen and the three of them visited the half-dome, the sky was slowly darkening, and a bonfire had been lit in the camp, and some campsites in Yosemite were allowed to light bonfires. Zhang Chen took the barbecue grill out of the car, and took out the chicken wings, meat skewers, mushrooms, onions and other ingredients that had been prepared from the car refrigerator.
Before Zhang Chen came to the United States, he brought a bunch of domestic spices, which also came in handy at this time. All the meat is marinated for more than 10 hours, and it is extremely delicious. Especially after sprinkling cumin chili, the aroma of the roasted meat is sent far away by the mountain breeze in the valley.
The enticing aroma drew other tourists in, including a white teenager in a baseball cap, pierced ears and hip-hop attire with his girlfriend.
At first, Zhang Chen just felt that this front was a little familiar, but when he saw his girlfriend clearly, he suddenly remembered, this is Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears!
Justin is the same age as Zhang Chen, and he still looks like a handsome teenager at this time, and Xiao Tiantian is young and beautiful.
Britney Spears of Girls' Generation, it is not too much to say that she is the dream lover in every man's mind, with wheat-colored skin, perfect facial features, and a girl's healthy body and figure. Girls in Europe and the United States are generally very well developed, although Britney is not yet sixteen years old, but it is already considerable.
Justin put his arm around Britney and looked ruffian, "Hey, bro, how do you make your barbecue? ”
Zhang Chen glanced at him and said quietly, "Thank you." ”
Justin touched a soft nail and said, "We're neighbors, how about entertaining us?"
Zhang Chen flipped the meat skewers in his hand and said casually: "When a neighbor comes to visit, it is appropriate to entertain, but what about gifts?
Tang Miaomiao and Su Zhuorui were originally just giving Zhang Chen a hand, but hearing that he was so embarrassed by these two young men and women, Tang Miaomiao gently kicked Zhang Chen, signaling him not to go too far.
Justin was stunned for a moment, scratching his head in distress, Zhang Chen saw this, and sneered: "Hey, the guitar over there is yours, right? You should be able to sing, right? So, you and your girlfriend can sing a song as a gift." ”
Justin laughed and said, "Brother, your eyesight is so good, I'm a professional singer." ”
Zhang Chen was a little surprised, Justin made his debut so early?
Justin took the guitar and pulled Britney to a broken piece of wood and sang "Iwantyouback."
Justin's immature voice is very clear, and Britney is singing softly beside her. After singing the song, Tang Miaomiao and Su Zhuorui applauded vigorously, and Justin couldn't help but show a smug look.
Zhang Chen smiled: "It's not bad." ”
Justin said proudly: "The song I wrote myself, of course, is good. ”
A few people sat on the floor, chatting while eating barbecue. It turned out that Justin and Britney had known each other since they were eleven or twelve years old, and had been dating for a year. It's just that because Justin had just debuted at that time, the agency was relatively strict with love management, although Justin is not well-known in the United States now, but he has made a name for himself in Europe, so he has no public relationship.
Britney, who has not yet debuted, just returned to California from New York last month to look for opportunities.
Britney now doesn't have the bold style she had more than a decade later, but behaves very gently. And Justin is not hip-hop like he looks like, and both have high basic qualities. The garbage thrown away and the leftovers from eating were very careful to help Zhang Chen sort them into different garbage bags, and then throw them into the designated garbage dump.
Zhang Chen noticed a small detail, Britney broke all the toothpicks into a few sections before throwing them away, just because she was afraid that the toothpicks would puncture the garbage bag and cause garbage leakage, these small details greatly changed Zhang Chen's impression of the two.
The smell of barbecue attracts not only Justin and Britney, but also many small animals. Zhang Chen noticed that there was a kitten not far away standing timidly behind a big tree, watching the barbecue in everyone's hands and swallowing saliva.
Zhang Chen saw that it was very cute, so he tore off a piece of chicken wings and threw it at his feet, signaling it to come and eat it.
The kitten was startled, but seeing that Zhang Chen didn't seem to have any malicious intent, he hesitated and walked over slowly step by step.
When the kitten approached, everyone found that the cat looked different from ordinary domestic cats, with thicker bones, larger eyes, and spots on its body, which looked like a cat and a small leopard.
The kitten saw that several people did not make dangerous movements, sniffed the chicken wings, tried to bite a small bite, and then the whole cat was sluggish.
Zhang Chenzheng wondered why the kitten suddenly stopped eating, whether it didn't eat these things, and saw the kitten pick up the chicken wings and run away.
Zhang Chen and others laughed and scolded this cat for being a white-eyed wolf, and he didn't know how to be grateful at all.
Tang Miaomiao was more careful, and found that the kitten did not run far, but just went around behind the bushes in the camp, so she curiously pulled Zhang Chen to follow her to take a look.
Zhang Chen carefully peeled off the bushes and found that the kitten was laboriously holding chicken wings to the mouth of a large cat lying on his stomach.
As soon as the big cat found Zhang Chen and the others, he struggled to stand up, but after several attempts, he was unsuccessful, and could only make a threatening sound from his mouth.
The kitten was also frightened, with its tail standing upright and a milky voice.
Zhang Chen squatted down and saw that the big cat's hind legs had been bitten off, and the abdomen had been torn with a big hole, and the internal organs were clearly visible.
It turned out that this kitten ventured into contact with humans for his injured mother, Zhang Chen gave it chicken wings, and it gave it to the big cat without looking back.
Zhang Chen touched the head of the big cat with his hand, Zhang Chen has had catnip attributes since he was a child, and the big cat gradually calmed down after his comfort, but he was still panting.
Zhang Chen asked Tang Miaomiao to go back to the car and take out the first-aid kit, and called the remaining people to bring the leftover food.
Justin also came to help, and when he saw the big cat, he was surprised: "This is a jaguar, it's rare now." ”
Justin reached out and looked at the big cat's wound, and said gloomily: "I guess it's hopeless, it's already hurt the internal organs." ”
The girls felt even more uncomfortable, especially when they saw the kittens who were still licking the big cats desperately, and several girls couldn't help but shed tears.
But Zhang Chen still wrapped the big cat's wound with a bandage, and the big cat licked Zhang Chen's hand gratefully. may have known that he was running out of time, so he glanced at the little guy who was arching around him with attachment, lowered his head and licked the little guy's hair, and pushed the kitten to Zhang Chen's feet with his head.
Zhang Chen stroked the kitten's smooth and soft fur with his hand and asked the big cat, "Do you want me to take care of it?"
The big cat looked at Zhang Chen, and didn't know if he understood Zhang Chen's words, but licked the kitten again with his tongue, and after one last look, he completely closed his eyes.
Tang Miaomiao picked up the kitten, and several other people worked together to dig a small grave for the big cat and bury it in it.
Everyone was a little silent, seeing the passage of a life made everyone's hearts uncomfortable, the kitten suddenly broke free from Tang Miaomiao's embrace, and almost grabbed Tang Miaomiao's arm with a few blood marks, Tang Miaomiao exclaimed, but the little guy fell to the ground smartly and glanced at everyone, and went into the depths of the valley without looking back.
Zhang Chen was about to chase after him, but Justin stopped Zhang Chen, "It belongs to nature, just let him go." There are not many predators in this valley, as long as you are careful not to be caught by the eagles in the sky, there is no danger. Then he explained, "In addition to music, my usual hobby is to study animal classification, and I can't be wrong." ”
As he spoke, the kitten probed his head back again, followed by a fluffy little thing.
