Chapter 3 Turtles in Hoan Kiem Lake
Not to mention the turtles and turtles in Huanjian Lake, there are countless turtles and grandchildren, and it is almost extinct even in its race. I've lived most of my life, and it's not necessarily whether I've seen the beauties in the clan or not.
The reason why it has aroused public mourning is also related to its status, which is a national treasure that enjoys a high status in Vietnam.
There is also a beautiful legend that hundreds of years ago, Le LĂŞ, the founding monarch of the Later LĂŞ Dynasty of Vietnam, became king and launched the Blue Mountain Rebellion, starting a decade-long war against the Ming Dynasty.
Legend has it that Le Li obtained a sword from heaven during the war, and when he was victorious, the turtle surfaced and took the sword, and this is where the name Hoan Kiem Lake comes from.
Also known as the Hoan Kiem Turtle, it is believed to be the attendant who guards the sword, and is regarded by the Vietnamese people as a symbol of the struggle for independence.
To this day, it is believed that this turtle is the same mythical beast that helped the king of Vietnam nearly six centuries ago.
This shows its status, but unfortunately it is dead now, and now there are only three turtles left in the world.
Of the other three turtles, two are in China and the other lives in another lake in Hanoi, Vietnam.
The two male and one female in China originally belonged to two zoos, but in order to protect the turtles, after nearly a year of discussions, they were finally relocated to the same zoo under the mediation of the WCS (International Wildlife Conservation Society) for breeding.
As a result, they went through the process of pairing, egg laying, and hatching, and tried all kinds of methods, but they have not succeeded.
After examination, it was found that it was mainly due to the older age of the turtle, the natural decline of physiological functions, and the lack of sperm vitality of the male turtle.
Qin Yan's eyes lit up, this is an opportunity, if he can make the turtle breed successfully, even if it is a reward, I don't know how much.
In order to be able to reproduce the spots, a lot of efforts have been made in China. WCS (International Wildlife Conservation Society), TSA (International Turtle and Turtle Survival Alliance), and two zoos have set up a turtle breeding team, and experts and professors from home and abroad have gathered.
It's a pity that all methods have been exhausted, and it has not been successful.
If he can succeed, it is indispensable to him.
Just do it, Qin Yan packed his things and embarked on the road to Suzhou.
Finally came to the Suzhou and Hangzhou Zoo, Qin Yan bought a ticket to go in, and found that how to see the turtle has become a problem, the turtle has a special pond, this very rare animal, is strictly protected, if he dares to go in and stroke, it is guaranteed that he will be found and expelled by the zoo people, if it is serious, he will even go to the prison cell and squat for a few days.
He didn't want to die before he left the school, he had to find a way.
After thinking about it for a while, Qin Yan squeezed out first, preparing to go to the goldfish stall, buy a few goldfish, and use the nourishment technique on them.
When the divine power enters the body, it is slowly nourished over a period of time and will not disappear in a short period of time, and the food containing this divine power is the favorite food of animals.
Suddenly, a terrible cry came from the front. "Someone fell, someone fell. â
"Shout people, shout people. â
"Breeder, breeder, find the breeder, call the police. â
Qin Yan was surprised in his heart, what was going on, he didn't want to join in the fun, but the crowd still squeezed him over.
Qin Yan looked over and realized that someone had fallen into the tiger park, which is a place where Siberian tigers are kept in captivity, with a space of several hundred square meters, and people can watch the tigers inside through the surrounding glass walls or the barbed wire fence on the upper floor.
This unfortunate man, while watching from above, climbed over the guardrail and fell in.
Qin Yan saw him inside, lying on the ground, struggling to get up, but he couldn't get up, I don't know if he was scared or drunk.
There was a chaotic sound of people around him, trying to rescue him, but how could it be so easy, in order to prevent the tiger from escaping, it was surrounded by a wall close to three meters high, and there was a guardrail more than one meter high on it, which hindered the rescue.
A group of people gathered around, shouting anxiously, but there was nothing they could do.
A tiger noticed the situation and walked slowly with leisurely steps, causing everyone to exclaim and shout for the fallen man to get up.
But the person who fell down couldn't even stand up, and tentatively held on a few times, and then he barely sat up, swaying, let alone standing, and it was hard to sit.
Someone found a rope and threw it over, several young people lay on the guardrail and wanted to rescue, and Qin Yan also went over to help.
The scene was very chaotic, and several young men threw ropes to each other's side, but he didn't catch them several times, and it didn't work at all.
An old man said, "This is not good, before the man fell, I smelled a strong smell of alcohol from him, I should have been drinking, looking at his current condition, I can't hold the rope." Another way has to be found. â
Seeing the tiger getting closer and closer to him, Qin Yan volunteered and said, "Let me come, I once learned the skills of lassing horses from people on the grassland, I put the rope on him, and then everyone pulled it up together." â
"Okay, that's it. â
Several young men handed the rope to Qin Yan, he made a live buckle on his hand, and tried to throw it down, but there was a guardrail more than one meter high on the side, Qin Yan threw it several times, but he didn't hit it because the guardrail obstructed.
"No, or you stand inside, and we'll pull you. A young man said.
As soon as Qin Yan thought about it, he handed them the rope, and carefully climbed into the guardrail, the guardrail was very close to the edge of the wall, there was only a few centimeters of gap, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would fall down, Qin Yan stood here, let them grab it, and tentatively throw the rope.
After two clicks, he threw the rope on the other party, and pulled hard, and the rope was tightened. "It's done, let's pull the rope quickly. â
"Okay. â
As soon as a few people were excited, thinking about saving people, I don't know who let go of their hands, and the remaining few people couldn't catch it, and Qin Yan fell down all of a sudden.
Looking up, he saw the tiger standing less than two meters away from him, one man and one tiger, staring at each other with big eyes. Qin Yan wants to cry without tears, a few of you can't hurry, am I saving people, or sending them to death.
The tiger didn't understand what was going on, and was afraid that I wouldn't have enough to eat.
It was the first time to be so close to the tiger, even the teeth exposed at the corners of its mouth could be seen clearly, the tiger was really powerful, Qin Yan was so happy that he didn't know why he thought of this question.
At such a close distance, it could pounce on it, and it was about to die in the tiger's mouth, Qin Yan calmed down, isn't it just a tiger, although he hasn't seen it, but the dog king has seen a lot, and even the black tiger that Zhao Gongming sat down has served before, maybe this is a good choice.
Qin Yan "brushed" the three divine power opportunities that he could use today were all replaced with nourishment techniques, thrown on the tiger, and then looked forward to a miracle.
The tiger that had already bent down to hunt was nourished by the nourishment technique and stopped moving, Qin Yan obviously felt that the tiger who was about to forage for food suddenly calmed down, and looked at him as if he had seen his own relatives.
Then there was a roar, full of the domineering spirit of the king of the forest, which startled the surrounding crowd to scream again and again.
The problem is that at such a close distance, he can smell the fishy stench in his mouth, and Qin Yan is almost scared to pee.
After roaring the tiger and then walked forward, in the exclamation of everyone, Qin Yan retreated with his hands and feet, and retreated to the corner of the wall in a few moments, and there was no way to retreat.
Qin Yan could only watch as the tiger walked over step by step, walked to his side, his body filled his field of vision, and then opened his mouth and bit it.
In this case, how can there be room for resistance, it would be good not to be scared to pee, Qin Yan closed his mouth in pain, waiting for death to come.
