Li Du took a bite, and the amazingly fragrant meat juice spurted out of the shredded meat, making his taste buds about to explode, chewing carefully and swallowing it, he couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so fragrant!" ”
Other exclamations rang out, and Victor grinned as he raised his glass and said, "To the gift of the Creator, to the bastards we live so hard." ”
Everyone toasted after him: "To the gift of the Creator, to us bastards!" ”
After chatting casually, Victor asked, "What are you here for?" Traveling? It looks like you're a rich guy, but it's rare to see a tour group like yours. ”
Li Du said: "Sort of, we also catch black gold abalone." ”
"Oh, you have a black gold abalone fishing license?" Victor asked again.
Li Du nodded but stopped talking, he felt that he had said too much.
They are on such a desert island, but they have exposed the black gold abalone fishing license, which can easily cause people's greed.
As a result, a middle-aged man who looked very capable pointed to the West and said, "Do you want to catch black gold abalone?" Walk all the way west and you'll come across an island with a lot of big bread trees, surrounded by black gold abalone. ”
"It's better not to go into the water there, it's dangerous there, and don't go up to the island, it's dangerous too." Someone else said, "That's a bad idea." ”
"But there are black gold abalone in the surrounding waters, we have seen it, and we have secretly caught it and eaten it." The lean middle-aged man said.
The others suddenly shouted: "Hey, Bauer, don't step on the horse and drink and can't control your mouth, we didn't illegally catch black gold abalone!" ”
"There are no fishermen here, what are you afraid of?" Bauer said smugly.
They are very law-conscious, and they will not talk about this topic later.
Li Du wanted to ask what the danger was, but Bauer and the others changed their words, saying that it was indeed dangerous, and asked them not to go near there, and then never mentioned this matter and moved on to other topics.
Living on a lonely island, they don't have much entertainment, and these people don't like entertainment very much, and after eating, they talk for a while under the lights, and then go back to their respective homes after eating.
Li Du stayed on the island all night, and was sleeping in a daze in the morning, when a frightened scream suddenly sounded in the building: "Ahhhhhh!!h ”
The voice was very miserable, which frightened Li Du to jump up, and Ah Hao, Ah Meow, who were sleeping at his feet, and Lao Gao, who was also jumping on his face, looked around with wide eyes and frightened.
Li Du heard that it was Hannah's voice, so he hurried out.
Brother Wolf, Ao and Godzilla also rushed out immediately, and Hans pushed open the door in a daze, saying, "I seem to hear my silly sister calling?" ”
Li Du was very angry when he looked confused, and said, "Brother Wolf, give him a mouth to wake him up!" ”
Brother Wolf was obedient, grabbed Hans and slapped him, and Hans screamed miserably, not much less than Hannah's scream.
Hannah's room was upstairs, and they rushed up and kicked the door open, seeing Stephen with Hannah in his arms, both of whom were disheveled.
Seeing that the two of them were fine, Li Du first breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Without waiting for Hannah and the two to answer, Brother Wolf pointed to the window and said, "Look." ”
Li Du glanced at it, and then felt that his scalp was numb.
The houses on the island are very rudimentary, some rooms have no glass, and when it is cold in winter, two layers of plastic paper will be pasted, which is cheap and has better insulation than glass.
It's autumn, it's not cold yet, and there is not even plastic paper on the windows, and it is empty.
At this time, Hannah's room was no longer empty, and something was hanging upside down on it, which would be staring at them coldly with big black eyes.
The upside-down animal is more than half a meter long, with a pitch-black body, fine hair, large, dark and terrifying eyes, sharp-beaked monkey gills, and looks evil.
Li Du recognized that it was a bat, but in his memory, the bat was the size of a palm, how could it be like now, it was as tall as a child.
The others rushed one after another, and Meow Ah rushed in, and when she saw the big bat, she was excited, and she screamed and pounced on the big bat.
The big bat flicked its claws and came into free fall, then spread its wings and flew up.
Now it was bigger, with wings more than a meter long, like a small black airplane.
Meow chased and jumped out of the window, the big bat, like many animals, underestimated the power of the tiger cat, it flew away slowly, thinking that it was the air force, and the land creatures couldn't help it.
But Meow ran fast and jumped far, and pressed his limbs together on the window, and then flew out like an arrow from the string, landing right on the big bat.
Although bats are large, they are very light, otherwise they will not be able to fly and will not be able to withstand much force.
Meow was so heavy that it couldn't bear it, and it crashed in an instant!
The group squeezed to the window to look out, and saw Ah Meow squatting downstairs on the big bat with his head tilted and looking at them innocently, while the big bat was pressed and convulsed on the ground.
Li Du hurriedly waved his hand to signal it to get out of the way, and shouted: "Paralysis is not afraid of death, you?" Go to the side. ”
Brother Wolf said calmly: "It's okay, boss, this is an Australian spectacled flying fox, a kind of fruit eater bat, which likes to eat the fruits of various plants and will not harm people and animals." ”
The owner and his wife also woke up at this time, and Hannah's screams were so loud that the people in the surrounding houses were probably awakened.
Seeing Meow stepping on the big bat, the owner waved it away, then squatted down to look at the bat's condition, and held it on the table.
The owner's wife went to get some ointment and handed it to him, and he applied it to the bat.
Li Du went downstairs and asked, "What is this for?" ”
The owner said: "Treat it, this is a bespectacled flying fox, it won't hurt people, don't be so afraid." ”
Hannah said aggrievedly: "It's so terrible, and it's so big, who knew it wouldn't hurt people?" I opened my eyes, and it just looked at me coldly. ”
At this point, she began to tremble again.
Li Du could understand that they had never seen such a big bat, and this head was too amazing, and it was indeed easy to be frightened when they saw it when they first woke up.
The owner smiled and introduced them to the Australian spectacled flying fox is a species on the island, and it is still a very important species.
They do not bite or attack humans and domestic animals, and like to eat the fruits of various plants, and the pits and undigested seeds are carried to other places with the migration of the Australian spectacled flying fox.
In the island's primeval forests, plant seedlings struggle to survive in the canopy of their parents, and some mother trees even secrete a toxin that prevents their seedlings from maturing.
That's why the spectacled flying fox has an important mission to disperse plant seeds, which are vital to the island's rainforest ecosystem.
Because of stealing farmers' fruits, Australian spectacled flying foxes were hunted in large numbers for a period of time, and now their numbers are very small, and the Australian government has begun to protect them.
The people on the island need to protect them because they are more important than humans in the island's ecosystem, which is why the homeowner rushed to first aid it when he found out that it was injured.
Just like the Maui dolphins, these spectacled flying foxes are now dead and one less and have to be protected.
