Feng Yi actually noticed that there were people around him, but he was trying to identify the smell, and the other person quickly moved away, so he didn't divert his attention to say hello.
After he had finished eating a leaf and identified the smell of the small flying insect, he got up and walked into the house.
He rolled up another leaf in his hand and stuffed it into his mouth. What a shameful waste.
Inside the house, Captain Wen and other team members had finished discussing their business.
Seeing Feng Yi coming, Captain Wen introduced him to several other members who had just returned to the team.
"Hello, Feng... Expert." Deputy Captain Jin stretched out his hand and shook hands with Feng Yi.
Deputy Captain Jin looks more approachable than Captain Wen.
But that was only on the surface. People in the Joint Security Bureau couldn't just look at the surface.
"Just call me Feng Yi." Feng Yi said.
He is the youngest here and doesn't like being called teacher or expert directly.
But his status as an expert is there after all, so no one would call him Xiaofeng directly.
People in the Joint Security Bureau would never call him by his online nickname “Snake Brother”.
Then just call the name.
Away from the "mysterious" state in the courtyard, Feng Yi now looks much more normal, and he did not make the patrol team members feel uncomfortable when he spoke.
"What were you doing just now? Did you find anything?" Deputy Captain Jin asked curiously.
"No. Just want to feel what's special here." Feng Yi said.
"So what did you feel?"
“The activity of life.”
Deputy Captain Jin: "... Oh. Life in this mountain range is very active."
Thinking of Feng Yi chewing on the leaves just now, Deputy Captain Jin said: "The large leaves of this variety of cabbage should not taste good when eaten raw."
Feng Yi nodded, "It's not that great. But it has some flavor that you don't find in other places."
The stationmaster came over and heard this, then continued: "It is cultivated locally, and it is also a local specialty. Even if it is the same batch of seeds, it will taste different if planted in different places."
This difference is simply believed to be caused by local climate and soil factors.
Plants grown in different soils and environments will definitely have differences, including trace elements and so on.
Feng Yi’s analysis goes beyond this, but there is no need to say more.
I smiled and continued chatting with the team members to get to know each other. In the next two weeks, everyone was a teammate.
Captain Wen looked at the time and coughed lightly, "There will be a team meeting in half an hour, everyone get ready."
Since there was a meeting, Feng Yi had to take notes, so he went back to his room to get his notebook.
After Feng Yi left, the patrol team started talking about him again.
"He's actually a pretty good guy," one team member said. At first glance, Feng Yi's behavior seemed a little outrageous, but after chatting with him, he felt that it was nothing.
"He must be trying to discern information from the smell of the plants and insects here." Captain Wen remembered that Feng Yi's sense of smell was far superior to that of ordinary people.
"Experts all have their own alternative behavior patterns."
"As expected, geniuses are not understood by others. The world they see is different from ours. Talents like Feng Yi, who were promoted exceptionally by the Joint Security Bureau, probably belong to this category."
Feng Yi returned to the room, unaware that his teammates classified him as a "genius with unusual behavior patterns."
He contacted Xiaojia and asked him to settle down in a nearby village or town. He did not need the supplies Xiaojia brought yet.
After eating two pieces of Xiao Bing's special compressed dry food, making a cup of nutritious water and having a snack, Feng Yi took his pen and notebook and went to the place where the team meeting was held.
No recording allowed, only handwritten notes.
Having had previous mission experience, Feng Yi now has experience in taking notes.
There were about ten people from the Seventh Patrol Team who came this time. They were divided into two groups, one responsible for the sites on the outer ring of the mountain range, and the other responsible for the sites in the core area of the hinterland. Each group had four people.
Other team members stayed at the monitoring station to take charge of other tasks.
The team members who go into the mountains for inspection generally have a 6+2+6 itinerary.
The first six days will be spent mainly inspecting sites on the south side of the mountain range. The middle two days will be spent resting at a protection station on the north-south route, and the next six days will be spent at sites on the north side of the mountain range.
Feng Yi was not clear about the specific itinerary before. He only knew that the mission would take nearly two weeks.
It’s not that Captain Wen didn’t tell him before, but that the team members who came here arrived early and further analyzed and formulated detailed routes and plans based on the latest information and data.
Feng Yi followed Captain Wen's team and was responsible for the core area in the hinterland of the mountain range.
The meeting formulated a specific itinerary and task arrangements, as well as the dangers involved and various response plans.
After saying that, Captain Wen looked at Feng Yi. He was the only "newcomer" here.
"Feng Yi, do you have any questions?"
"Uh... yes."
Feng Yi sat up straight and looked at Captain Wen with a serious expression: "I want to ask, after entering the mountain, can we eat wild fruits on the mountain? Not the ones with high protection level, the ones that are edible?"
The meeting room was silent.
The team members looked at Feng Yi, then at Captain Wen.
Captain Wen said calmly: "Okay. But generally speaking, after we enter the mountains, in addition to drinking water, we try to eat the food we bring with us and try not to spend time on things other than the mission." For example, see a doctor if you have a stomachache.
Feng Yi: "Okay, no other questions."
Captain Wen: "You only need to bring what you need. You are not responsible for other patrol equipment."
Feng Yi: "Okay."
After the meeting, Feng Yi returned to the dormitory, picked up a large backpack, and began to pack the things he would take into the mountains tomorrow.
We will be in the mountains for six days, and the food and equipment we carry are heavy.
Feng Yi doesn’t need to bring anything like equipment, mainly food.
The next day, the team members gathered and prepared to set off.
The four-member team includes Captain Wen and Feng Yi, as well as two inspectors, Zhuo Xiao and Lu Pengbo.
They need to take a helicopter to a designated protection station near the heart of the mountain.
When they gathered, everyone saw Feng Yi's backpack, which was a lot bigger than the ones they were carrying.
Team members: “…”
I originally thought it was just a larger capacity, maybe something that takes up space but isn't too heavy. Experts always have tools that others don't have.
However, when Feng Yi put down the backpack, the dull sound of "bang" when it fell to the ground was very real.
Team members: “…”
They looked at Captain Wen.
With the captain around, they would not directly express any opinions to the experts when they were on a mission, and besides, this person was brought by Captain Wen.
However, Captain Wen just looked at Feng Yi quietly and asked, "Can you keep up?"
Feng Yi: “Yes.”
Captain Wen: "Okay, let's go."
It was a very plain conversation, and both sides seemed very calm.
And the heart—
Feng Yi: Fortunately, I didn’t bring the five-liter bucket that the housekeeper prepared! It’s too eye-catching!
Captain Wen: If you can’t keep up, just kick!
Since the captain didn't say anything, the team members didn't say much either.
The taller and stronger team member smiled at Feng Yi in a friendly manner and asked, "Do you need any help?"
"No. Thank you."
Feng Yi took his bag and boarded the plane with everyone else.
In addition to carrying them, the helicopter was also responsible for delivering a batch of supplies to several isolated protection stations. After all, hunting was not allowed in the mountains, and due to multiple restrictions, most supplies had to be transported.
The protection station that Feng Yi and his team set up as the starting point was not big. Apart from the place for the helicopter to land, there was not much living area.
After landing at the protection station, Captain Wen took the team members to rest for a while and then set off.
In order to protect the wildlife habitat, there is no road here and the only way to get there is on foot.
Follow the planned route, first walk along the patrol line for a while, and then move forward according to the target location.
There are some places that require climbing and require help from teammates.
Passing a steep slope, Captain Wen climbed up the mountain first with the help of his teammates, and other teammates followed, with Captain Wen pulling people up from above.
Zhuo Xiao looked at Feng Yi, "You go first."
Feng Yi: "You go first."
Zhuo Xiao looked at Captain Wen.
Captain Wen nodded.
Without saying much, Zhuo Xiao climbed up the steep slope with the help of his teammates.
Feng Yi helped another person climb up.
Captain Wen had just pulled the team members up and turned to Feng Yi, ready to pull him in. According to his idea, he should first pull up Feng Yi's big backpack, and then pull the people in.
Before he could reach out his hand, someone was already beside him, carrying a bag.
Three people present:
How did he get up here
Captain Wen was stunned for a moment, then smiled silently. It was unclear whether he was laughing at others or at himself.
"Okay, continue."
This time it is not like recording a program in the wild, or doing a scientific expedition of a teaching nature with interactive communication throughout the process.
The task force of the Joint Security Bureau does not speak unless it is necessary.
Stay alert at all times and carefully listen to the sounds around you.
On the way into the mountains toward the first target site, they heard the sound of branches breaking.
It was an adult giant panda, sitting in the bamboo forest enjoying its food. Its thick back made it look like it was not to be messed with.
Captain Wen led his men to carefully bypass it.
Don’t be fooled by the cute and silly appearance of giant pandas in zoos or on some shows.
But it's a bear!
Giant pandas in the wild need even more precautions.
Of course, they also encountered a sensitive and timid one on their way through the mountains.
The one that was slightly smaller quickly climbed up the tree after hearing the noise coming from their side and looked at them vigilantly from the tree.
Captain Wen took photos and recorded them, but did not disturb it.
Feng Yi looked at the giant panda on the tree and thought: It's a very agile climber.
Before entering the mountains, Feng Yi heard from people at the monitoring station about the giant pandas living in the mountains.
Most people who enter this forest would not want to be chased by wild giant pandas.
If you climb a tree, it will also climb a tree.
If you jump into the river, it will also swim.
Even if you run in the mountains, you may not be faster than it.
Facing them in the mountains, we had no advantages in terms of weight, speed, skills, etc.
Therefore, if you try to tease an adult giant panda you meet in the wild, you are asking for trouble.
However, Feng Yi felt in his heart: This creature is truly the child of destiny!
His own skills are so strong that if he really couldn't survive, he could still survive well by being cute when he met someone.
During the months when they move to lower altitudes, one or two of them would occasionally come down the mountain and break into villagers' homes, wander around before going back up the mountain.
If you encounter difficulties, the villagers will help you. If they can't help, contact the rescue station.
How about changing it to a snake
I’ll beat you to death.
Thanks to years of protection and rescue, the number of giant pandas in the mountains has increased significantly.
However, most of them are still in the hinterland of the mountains, where few people go.
Wild giant pandas in the mountains are strong survivors of natural competition. If you enter their territory, you are likely to be attacked.
This creature, which eats a lot and poops a lot, and eats and poops quickly, has left many traces in the mountains and forests.
Although he was not very willing, Feng Yi still pointed out some traces to Captain Wen and his team. Captain Wen and his team needed to make some relevant records along the route.
Sometimes, Feng Yi would also take a small notebook to take notes.
If you put more effort into it during normal times, you will be more relaxed when you finish the task and write the report.
Captain Wen led his men to make relevant records. Turning around, he saw Feng Yi picking up some fruit from some plant and eating it while walking towards the short tree nearby.
A spotted herbivorous insect rested on a branch.
Feng Yi picked up the insect with his other hand and brought it closer to sniff it.
Captain Wen came over reflexively: "You can't eat this!"
Feng Yi looked puzzled: "I know."
Many insects in the wild carry parasites and cannot be eaten raw.
He is not so hungry that he would eat anything!
