Chapter 1127 Poachers
This is a serious problem. Xiao Peng does have a lot of things in the ring, but there really is no aunt towel! What can I do?
Looking at Lulu again, she is as lively as no one. I didn't know that the two big men were already worried.
"Brother Peng, this is the trouble you are looking for, what do you say?" Yang Meng said.
Xiao Peng repaid the account: "What do you call me looking for trouble? People are obviously looking for you." β
"Isn't it you, can she get on our ship?" Yang Meng retorted.
Xiao Peng shrugged: "You can't blame me for this. Don't you think it's too cruel to see her chasing us like that?
Yang Meng surrendered: "Okay, Brother Peng, let's not shirk our responsibilities." Let's think about how to solve the problem, shall we?"
"How to solve it? There is no store in front of the village here, and there is no store in the back, and you can buy a fart, let's make do with toilet paper for her first." Xiao Peng was speechless. Looking at the map, the location of the two is now almost in the heart of the Amazon rainforest. This is the standard before the village and behind the store.
Watching Yang Meng teach Lulu how to pad toilet paper with a sad face, Xiao Pengle was happy.
The rest of the day was much quieter. Every day along the Amazon River, when you encounter a tributary, you go in to have a look, and you are not afraid of wasting time, and at night you go to the rainforest to find rare animals to extract genes, but you also have a good time.
"Fierce son, where is our parrot?"
On this day, Xiao Peng was just about to continue his exploration in the rainforest at night, when he suddenly discovered a very serious problem. It was almost night, and their two Spicus macaws hadn't returned. Usually they fly out on their own in search of food, and they usually come back quickly. What's going on?
Yang Meng was cleaning the deck there, and after listening to Xiao Peng's words, he also came back to his senses: "Hey, they should have come back a long time ago, I said, why didn't I hear their squeaky and squeaky calls today." β
Xiao Peng glanced at Yang Meng: "They won't be so noisy, rightγγγγγγ He himself was quite weak when he said this, and he didn't know if he didn't raise macaws, this thing was really noisy. In addition to sleeping, he didn't stop: "Forget it, I'll take Da Hei and Xiao Hei to take a look, you guys take care of the boat!"
Lulu walked over: "Me." Go tooγγγγγγ β
Xiao Peng waved his hand: "You guys just stop." I'll see for myself!"
After speaking, without waiting for the two to reply, he jumped out of the boat directly and went into the jungle with two jaguars. That's a Sbix macaw, one of the rarest macaws in the world, can he not worry?"
Xiao Peng also wanted to use the canine sense of smell to find them, but suddenly the rain washed away the smell of the two parrots. I can only look for it slowly.
He also wondered how the two macaws would not be too far from the ship. And every time Xiao Peng stops the boat, it is usually a place where the golden bell tree grows, which is the favorite food of the Spix macaw. It stands to reason that they won't go very far.
But now the two macaws, whose IQ has increased, are perfectly capable of evading predators, and now there is nothing but humans that can pose danger to them.
Where they are now, which is the deepest part of the Amazon rainforest, how can anyone come?
It's possible, but the most popular bird for the aborigines is the toucan, the kind with a beak bigger than the bird's body, and very few people catch parrots. They believed that parrots could learn to speak and were birds that held the souls of their ancestors. How is it possible to hunt them?
Xiao Peng was puzzled and took two jaguars through the rainforest. Looking for the whereabouts of the macaw. It will soon be dark, and it will be more difficult to find them.
"Where did this Nima go?" Xiao Peng came to a forest of golden wind chimes, and there was no whereabouts of the two Spikes macaws. I searched for all the golden bells in this vicinity, but there was no trace of them. What the hell?
Just when Xiao Peng was puzzled, the sudden voice startled Xiao Peng.
It wasn't the sound of a beast, it was the sound of an engine.
This is the hinterland of the Amazon rainforest, where does the engine come from?
Xiao Peng ran along the sound to the river, a tributary of the Amazon. When Xiao Peng arrived, he saw that a rubber boat had just left!
Xiao Peng's eyes were sharp, and he found that there were several iron cages behind the rubber boat, in which there were toucans, blue-purple parrots and other birds, as well as a jaguar, but life and death were unknown lying there. And those two Spix macaws are inside!
"Poachers!" the word flashed through Xiao Peng's mind!
"Damn!" Xiao Peng scolded secretly, and chased after him! Don't say that these two Sbix macaws are his own, even if they are not his own, he can't let go when he sees poachers!
Thinking of this, he ran away and chased after the dinghy.
There won't be much fuel in this dinghy, so you won't be able to run far. At most, it's fifty or sixty kilometers. They must have other gathering points! Xiao Peng's current thoughts are to catch up with them quickly.
The speed of this assault boat is quite fast, it can reach a speed of forty kilometers per hour, but after all, it is night, so it can't sprint with all its might, but Xiao Peng can't catch up with him for a while and a half.
After all, he was running on the shore, and all kinds of bushes, reefs, and the like seriously affected Xiao Peng's speed. Xiao Peng was in a hurry and had no choice but to try his best to catch up with them.
I don't know how long I chased it, but the assault boat finally stopped.
Xiao Peng also stopped, the two jaguars were tired, but Xiao Peng was like no one. He gestured to the two black jaguars, signaling them to be quiet. He quietly spared himself to see who the poachers were.
Sure enough, as Xiao Peng guessed, there was a temporary camp for poachers here, and there were quite a few people, a total of nine people, and there were already three assault boats parked here. It looks like they're splitting up, and they're back together when they're done poaching.
"Hey, Neil, how did you get it?" said a man who was already in the camp when he saw the assault boat coming.
"Sheldon!God forbid, this time we sent it!" the man named Neil jumped out of the assault boat.
"Did you mean this dead jaguar?haha, we just sent it this time, guess what we found?" It was so dark, only by the campfire on the shore, Sheldon didn't see Neil's prey clearly, only a dead jaguar.
Neil was stunned when he heard this: "What did you get?"
Sheldon laughed, "Billy, let Neil see what we've gained this time!"
Hearing this, a young man entered the tent and took out two jaguar skins from it: "I have two jaguar skins here, of course, these are not the most important treasures!
The young man named Billy took out a cage with seven or eight little jaguars: "That's what it's called! I can sell this litter of baby jaguars for 8,000 dollars at will! This is the best income I've ever made here." How's that? That's it, isn't it?"
Neil pouted, "Oh. β
Sheldon lined Neil's shoulders: "Neil, don't be discouraged, there will be good luck coming to you in the future." Old Chuck also had great luck, he found a nest of green forest snakes, but unfortunately only caught more than thirty of them. That's pretty good, too. Now the green forest is too popular in the pet market. These more than 30 little green forest pythons can be sold for more than 30,000 US dollars. It's good that you have a jaguar skin this time, and it can sell for at least a few thousand dollars. Don't you have anything else to receive?"
Neil shrugged: "Actually, I just caught some birds." β
Sheldon frowned: "Neil, didn't I tell you, poaching birds is a very uneconomical thing, it is easy to hurt the feathers when transporting, then it can't be sold for a high price, even if you catch the most beautiful bird (ps: tuo kong, that is, toucano), at most it will be sold for three or four hundred dollars, so what is the value? I know you are a master bird catcher, but this is not our main hunting target." β
Neil's face calmed down when he heard this: "What if I catch three blue-purple macaws?"
"Oh, Shet!" Sheldon snapped into a foul mouth. The blue and purple macaw is the most popular macaw in the pet market, because it is too large and rare, so it is not a problem to sell it for 30,000 dollars a piece. Neil says he caught three?
Neil was very satisfied with Sheldon's expression, and took out a cigar and lit it with a very stinky fart: "Roderick, let them see, one male and two female, do you think my harvest is okay?"
When the people on Neil's boat heard this, they directly reached out and brought over a few large cages, and looked through the bonfire, what was it if it wasn't a blue-purple macaw?
A group of poachers all gathered around, watching Neil's expression change, this Nima harvest is too good. And there are two female blue-purple macaws? That one is even more expensive! After this trip, you can go back and change your car and house.
Several people looked at Neil with envy in their eyes.
Who knew that Neil still looked disdainful: "What is this? God loves me when he comes out this time, and he has given me the most precious gift." β
After listening to Neil's words, everyone didn't understand what Neil meant. Neil nodded at Roderick, who brought a large cage from the boat with a pair of parrots inside.
Sheldon, an old poacher, took a breath when he saw it, "Sbix macaw, God, I didn't see a hallucination, did I?"
Neil laughs, "I thought I was hallucinating at first, too. But who knew that God was so attached to me that he really let me see the Sbix macaw! Well, I'm not going to use this damn Amazon rainforest again! With this time, I don't have to come here again for the rest of my life! Hahahaha, it's the dollar bill beckoning to me! I said, why hasn't our buyer come yet?"
Unlike Neil's smug face, the rest of the poachers looked at Neil's expressions with hatred, not suffering from inequality, although they were also here to poach, why could such a precious Sbix macaw let him find it, but he didn't find it?
Sheldon took a deep breath to calm his emotions: "Neil, does anyone dare to buy this parrot? No one would dare to risk the world's condemnation to buy this parrot, right?"
Neil smiled, "Sheldon." Are we still selling less rare wild animals? As long as we have the goods, we don't have to worry about not being able to sell them! Don't underestimate the greed of the rich people. I really don't believe that this pair of Spix macaws can't be sold. β
Neil's words are telling the truth, what rare wild animals nowadays, as long as someone sells them, then someone must buy them. Why are there still so many people poaching? There is no trade, no killing, and it is because there is a market that so many poachers risk their lives to poach in the Amazon rainforest.
Sheldon glanced at the others and exchanged glances: "Neil, your receipt this time is really good, you can't say this alone, right?"
Neil frowned, "Sheldon, what do you mean? We've always hunted our own prey, when did you let me dip it when you had a good harvest?"
Sheldon shrugged: "This is not what I mean alone, it is what everyone means. β
Neil looked around at the people around him, "What the hell do you guys think, what do you want to do?"
Sheldon said lightly: "Actually, there is nothing, we will all divide the money from the sale of these parrots equally." β
"This can't be!" Neil's voice became sharper, "This is my prey, why do you share my wealth? This is a robbery!!"
"Why?" Sheldon smiled coldly: "It's just that there are so many of us!"
As soon as he finished saying this, Neil took out a pistol directly from his pocket: "Don't move!
Sheldon shook his head and said, "There are so many of us here, who are you going to beat?"
Neil stepped back step by step: "Now whoever it is, stand where you are, I will shoot whoever moves!" Roderick, put our prey back on the assault boat, let's go!"
Sheldon said, "How much fuel do you have, where can you go?"
Neil snorted coldly, "Then you don't have to worry about it! We'll contact the buyer ourselves! Isn't he near us? I'll trade with them directly! Roderick, you'd better hurry upγγγγγγ β
Before Neil could finish speaking, his eyes widened and he lowered his head in shock.
I saw a long dagger stuck in his lungs. And it was none other than Roderick.
Roderick snatched his gun from Neil's hand: "Neil, don't hate me. If you want to hate you, you hate yourself for being stupid------ don't you know that Sheldon is my father?"
Neil didn't speak, and lay on the ground like a pile of rotten wood.
Sheldon stood up at this time: "Don't be stunned, hide his body first, it's not good for the buyer to come and see it later, clean up this place!
