On the magnolia trees in Waterfowl Lake, the dense branches and leaves are dotted with colorful colors. If these colors do not move by chance, from a distance, it looks like the tree is full of colorful flowers.
People come and go under the tree, stop to watch from time to time, and count how many parrots are on the tree.
Many tourists regard this as a drama deliberately arranged by the zoo. Haven't you seen the director's favorite bird standing on the top? I don't know how to train, I didn't see a staff member yelling at them, and these bird legs were not restrained, but they just stood on the branches and didn't fly away.
There are dozens of birds standing on a tree, which is a spectacular sight. As one employee said, it looks like there are birds growing on the tree.
When Duan Jiaze walked to the lake with the quilt in his arms, he saw this scene. He walked under the tree and looked up at the birds, and said nonchalantly, "Sunshine?"
A few naive parrots looked up: there is no sun.
Duan Jiaze glanced at the "sun" on the top, hugged the quilt with one hand, and raised it with the other.
This action is generally regarded as letting the bird land on it.
As soon as Duan Jiaze raised his hand, the parrots who hadn't moved just now rushed down instantly, startling the tourists.
They were counting the birds, some said fifty, some said fifty-three... Suddenly, all those birds flapped their wings and flew down, and they all rushed in one direction, as if they were about to crash into a car.
Oh no, not all the birds, there was a golden-red bird standing on the top without moving.
In a blink of an eye, these huge parrots seemed to be drowning Duan Jiaze. After they scattered, only three birds were lucky enough to seize the opportunity and landed in his hands.
Then, the fat gray parrot in the middle kicked away the brother on the left, pecked away the sister on the right, and monopolized the territory.
The other parrots flew away and landed on the surrounding trees or railings.
Some of the tourists who witnessed this scene didn't know Duan Jiaze, they just thought he was a breeder, and they were happy to see him. That's right, this gray parrot has a high combat effectiveness.
The next moment, the gray parrot in their eyes, who was very regal, lowered its head, then took a few steps with its paws in a desperation, and flew away. Lu Ya on the top of the tree flew down unhurriedly and landed in Duan Jiaze's hand.
Some people may know Lu Ya, but they don't know or remember what Duan Jiaze looks like. Now when they see this situation, they realize that this is not Lu Ya's master, the director of Lingyuan. A bird of prey is a bird of prey. With just one look, those parrots are instantly killed.
It's a pity that they didn't have much time to watch, Duan Jiaze had already left with the bird on his back.
The employees of the zoo felt a little sad when they saw Duan Jiaze put on the landing pad and left behind with dozens of parrots. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't drive the parrots back.
It took about ten seconds for the headmaster to walk under the tree. He raised his hand and pulled all the birds away...
It was also at this time that the onlookers came to their senses. Since this is Lu Ya's breeder and the director of Lingyuan, he has a quilt in his hand, and he coincides with the rescue of the orcas in the news. Coupled with the reaction of these birds just now, could it be said that they were actually waiting for someone when they stopped on the tree
…
Lu Ya said in a subtle tone: "You're back?"
Duan Jiaze glanced at Lu Ya, but Lu Ya is now a bird, and he couldn't tell any emotions from the hair on his face, but he could tell from his tone that Daojun's emotions were complicated enough. It's probably the kind, you're so anxious to die, but you still feel aloof when you see yourself.
He is now holding the quilt with both hands, and Lu Ya is standing on the quilt.
Lu Ya also explained: "The parrots felt bored, so they let them out to play, and I will watch over them."
Lu Ya's explanation of making trouble and skipping work so fresh and refined, Duan Jiaze couldn't bear to expose him. After all, he was going to become a husband-wife stone. I heard that he had grown motionless on a tree for the past two days. Don’t worry. I’ve been busy these two days and I haven’t been able to come back. Fortunately, you asked Jade Bird to deliver the quilt to me, which can be regarded as a relief.”
Lu Ya didn't know how happy he was, and jumped from the quilt on Duan Jiaze's chest to his head, and laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha, you know you're wrong? How dare you speak hard before you go!"
Duan Jiaze: "..."
Every time he thought that the next scene should be a very tender one, Lu Ya would surprise him.
Standing on Duan Jiaze's head, Lu Ya felt so proud of himself. He realized that Duan Jiaze lowered his head in "ashamedness", and then suddenly said, "Understood, I would like to ask for your understanding. The Emperor Penguin in Luoye is sick. Please invite me." It took about twenty days for the consultation in the past... "
Lu Ya: "..."
Lu Ya frantically patted Duan Jiaze's hair with his wings, and said angrily, "Don't go!!"
Duan Jiaze's hair was messed up, covering his eyes, he hugged the quilt and shook his head, "I'm just kidding, that's not the case."
Lu Ya paused, then patted Duan Jiaze with his wings to vent his anger, "Little liar."
Duan Jiaze said innocently: "Who knew you had such a big reaction, hey, isn't your action just now equivalent to jumping up and scratching your face in the human race?"
"..." Lu Ya felt that he was very controlling, and he was simply indulging this bastard. He said angrily, "Do you still need to jump up if you scratch you?"
Duan Jiaze: "..."
Duan Jiaze: "...Can we stop hurting each other?"
When he was standing downstairs, he said to Lu Ya, "Now, I'll go up and put things away, and you send all the parrots back."
Lu Ya flapped his wings and flew out.
The following parrots did not turn around immediately, but flew down one by one, stopped on Duan Jiaze's shoulder, touched his face, and then followed.
Duan Jiaze put the quilt on the bed, tidied up the daily necessities that he brought in his bag, and Lu Ya came back when he finished. He patted the quilt and looked at Lu Ya and smiled.
Lu Ya glanced at him: "Why, can't sleep alone when the deity is not around?"
Duan Jiaze said hesitantly: "... I think it's okay, there are only double bed rooms left in the hotel next door."
Lu Ya: "..."
Lu Ya flew over and instantly transformed into a human in mid-air, pressing Duan Jiaze under him.
"It's hard to sleep! It's very hard to sleep!" Duan Jiaze hurriedly said, "Oh my God, I miss my brother to death!"
Lu Ya's face was still not very good-looking, and he stared at Duan Jiaze.
"We are all on duty in rotation..." Duan Jiaze said, and he had already kissed Lu Ya on the mouth. He hadn't seen Lu Ya for a long time, and he really missed Lu Ya.
Lu Ya also forgot what he was going to say now, and started to chew on Duan Jiaze in his arms.
…
…
Previously, Lingyuan Zoo received inspections from foreign zoos, and reached an agreement with some of them. Lingyuan carried out a series of exports and exchanges mainly with emperor penguins.
Among them is an exchange with a zoo in a certain country. They exchanged black and white colobus monkeys and spirit cages in their own garden for emperor penguins.
Black and white colobus monkeys are actually not rare animals in their country, but from Africa. They are endemic animals in Africa, but they were introduced by them.
A total of six black and white colobus monkeys took a plane and then transferred to a car. They traveled all the way to Lingyuan and were arranged in the African animal exhibition hall. Just because they came from afar, they still need to be quarantined before they can be exhibited.
Black-and-white colobus monkeys are also endangered animals. They are hunted for their fur, and the golden snub-nosed monkeys belong to the colobus subfamily. They usually live in trees and like to move.
During the isolation and quarantine period of black and white colobus monkeys, Xiao Su also arranged a series of related publicity.
After the exhibition started, a large number of tourists went to the African Animal Exhibition Hall to see the elegant demeanor of the black and white colobus monkeys.
Duan Jiaze also took a look. There were trees in the activity area of the black and white colobus monkeys, and the activity facilities were also made of wood. Tourists who saw them for the first time couldn't help but praise their beauty.
The reason why there are black and white in the name of black and white colobus monkeys is precisely because their fur is mainly black and white, and their appearance is very distinctive. Maybe some people who are confused will not be able to distinguish between various monkeys, but it will definitely not include black and white colobus monkey.
From the angle Duan Jiaze was standing on, the three black and white colobus monkeys were either squatting or standing on the tree trunk. There was a circle of white hair around their faces, which framed their facial features from forehead to chin. There are also white hairs on both sides of the back. These white hairs are long and soft, like tassels.
And their tails are covered with long white hairs in the last three quarters. When they squatted on the tree, these long hairs fell vertically, showing their soft texture. This makes their tails look like whisks.
It's the fur, let them be hunted, the long hairs that would become the trim of clothing.
Black and white tone, long and soft fur and tail hair make them look fairy-like, every move, long hair fluttering, very eye-catching.
These black and white colobus monkeys have a lively personality, jumping around on the trees, which is even more popular with tourists.
"Oh my god, I really want to be swept across my face by their tails, it must be very comfortable!"
"Bring your own cloak, this is really the most beautiful monkey I've ever seen."
"Look-"
A male black-and-white colobus monkey is jumping from high to low, its tail almost as long as itself is posing in a beautiful arc in the air.
After it landed on the ground, its tail also swung down, and its long hair fluttered in the air. After a few final swings, it hung behind its back, and the hair flowed down. For some, the activity of the tail in their eyes played automatically in slow motion.
Its white hair is shiny, soft and vertical, and will not tangle at all. The big tail makes people want to hug it and bury their face in it.
Not to mention that its jump this time is very difficult, and its skill is vigorous, which makes people even more amazing.
The effect is not bad. Duan Jiaze looked here for a while and then left. When Xiao Su made publicity, he focused on the appearance of the black and white colobus monkeys, and they did not disappoint. They really captured the hearts of the people with their unique appearance.
When Duan Jiaze went out, he saw people coming in one after another, discussing the appearance of black and white colobus monkeys. They saw pictures on the Internet, but they doubted whether the real monkeys were as pictured.
Not to mention the zoo, many scenic spots nowadays, don’t they all find photographers to take pictures, use special shooting skills, or retouch the pictures crazy, and the pictures taken in the end are extremely beautiful. But when you actually go there, you will find that it is not the case at all.
Some zoos do publicity, and the pictures of animals are not necessarily taken by themselves. Maybe the beautiful and cute little animals in the picture are actually dirty and thin.
Of course, people who have this idea must be visiting Lingyuan for the first time. Lingyuan is famous for the fact that dynamic animals are better than static animals, and real objects are better than promotional pictures.
When Duan Jiaze went out, he saw Yuan Hong at the door. He was alone. The monkey he had been carrying was too big, so he sent him back to the monkey group. As a monkey, he still had to live with the monkey group.
Duan Jiaze walked over to say hello to Yuan Hong, and said with a smile, "Mr. Xing, have you gone in and seen it?"
Yuan Hong: "Look."
Duan Jiaze asked curiously, "How about it, do you speak the language?"
It doesn't matter if Duan Jiaze uses Beast Heart Communication. The breeder was even curious. This monkey is from Africa, and later stayed in other Asian countries. Now that he is in China, he probably can't understand Chinese dialect when he speaks to them. Get acquainted with them.
Generally, most animals, after staying in the zoo for a long time, know what simple language means. They go to the "restaurant" after dinner, and avoid letting the breeder come in to clean up the room.
Yuan Hong rubbed his chin and said, "That's enough, they don't seem to understand."
"Half understanding is already very good. It's all from outsiders. At the beginning, Lu Ya didn't know how to communicate with emperor penguins." Duan Jiaze said with a smile.
Yuan Hong nodded, and said with a little hesitation: "There are quite a lot of tourists."
Even the golden snub-nosed monkey house where he is located has a lot of ostentation, and the tourists are not so enthusiastic. Is it because the black and white colobus monkeys come from other continents, and rare things are more expensive
Duan Jiaze said abruptly, "The Monkey King."
Yuan Hong: "..."
Duan Jiaze turned to look at Yuan Hong, "This guy is so beautiful. When Xiao Su was promoting it, he even said he wanted to call them African Monkey Kings. I can tell. What a nondescript name, and it binds our great sages." You can put it more simply, the most beautiful monkey in Africa."
Seeing that Yuan Hong's face was not very good-looking, he added: "I mean it is very beautiful in the eyes of humans. I don't know what you think, but most humans think it is pretty."
Yuan Hong looked at Duan Jiaze hesitantly.
Duan Jiaze immediately said with a guilty conscience: "Did I say something wrong? If I offend you, I apologize first."
Yuan Hong: "It's nothing. They're just average in appearance. I've asked about them, and other monkeys think they're weird, but African animals seem to be pretty weird."
What zebras, giraffes, black and white colobus monkeys, these animals unique to Africa, are indeed weird enough for the native animals of China.
Including birds like emperor penguins, wasn't Luya unacceptable at first, as they didn't quite match the traditional aesthetics.
Duan Jiaze smiled, "It's not surprising to see more, now there are more exchanges in the world."
…
Duan Jiaze rejected Xiao Su's calling the black and white colobus monkey "African Monkey King", but later the black and white colobus monkey's appearance was greatly praised, so Duan Jiaze heard employees call the black and white colobus monkey that way a few times.
They also plausibly said: "Although this name is a bit outlandish, it is very suitable!"
Duan Jiaze: "Fuck you, there are six Monkey Kings in your family? You also call the females like that, why don't you call them the African Monkey Princess?"
Everyone was shocked by thunder...

Duan Jiaze had previously visited the Lingyuan Zoo to see how other people's zoos hold large-scale events. This year, they will also hold events themselves to enliven the atmosphere of tourists.
It is not that there are not enough tourists in Lingyuan, but if some such activities are properly held, if successful, it will indeed make tourists feel more recognized and involved. Like before, they also held a photo contest.
Because Lingyuan invested in Tongxin Village, and Haijiao Park took them to play before, so this time Duan Jiaze also invited Haijiao Park and Tongxin Village to hold a zoo-themed carnival. The theme is African animals. .
In the past, they all followed the Chinese style, but this time it is a little different.
The three parties set up a planning team to plan some activities around this theme, and some teams had to be invited to perform. At that time, some animal dolls dressed in African costumes will be limited to sale. Needless to say, restaurants will also launch limited set menus.
The carnival will last for a whole day, because the venue spans three places, so there will be a cycling competition on that day, from Tongxin Village to Lingyuan, and there will be some levels to be completed in the middle.
In this competition, there is also an opportunity, which task may be completed, you can get special assistance, such as being able to ride a horse.
Including in Lingyuan and Haijiao Park, there are also many games, some of which are related to animals. For example, if you make animal enrichment tools according to the drawings, and the animals are willing to use them, you will be considered successful.
There are also some related to the facilities of the zoo. The cruise ships and cable cars in the free-range area are all closed. Anyone who enters the park can participate in games no matter where they go. There will also be a stage in the park for themed performances.
The atmosphere is lively and lively, people have a good time, and if they make an impression, they will succeed. Although the cost may have just been recovered that day, or even not recovered, it is worth it. The so-called loss is only reflected in the accounts, and only on that day.
…
"Now let's hold a carnival, and when it's Qixi Festival, we can hold a Magpie Bridge Garden Party." Duan Jiaze said as he walked, he, Huang Qi and others shuttled around the garden to check today's situation.
Not bad, the tourists had a great time, and many games also added popular science knowledge, and they needed to find the answers in the park.
Huang Qi nodded and said, "Not bad."
Not far away is the place where the riddles are guessed. Dozens of parrots are standing on the perches. There are no papers with puzzles written here, they are all randomly spoken by the parrots.
The staff judged at the side: "I'm sorry, please don't interfere with our question writers reading the questions."
"How can it read the title, this guy can sing!" A young couple who answered the question said angrily.
The staff smiled and said, "Wait a little longer."
The parrot gave him a sideways look, "Hold you in my hands, you are the most beautiful cloud in my sky... Excuse me, what song is this?"
Couple: "..."
The female tourist hesitated and said, "National style of love?"
The male tourist said: "If you love to commit suicide, ask for support."
Looking forward, there are still some tourists bathing the elephants under the guidance.
This made Duan Jiaze wonder if some people were lazy when the planning team went to various venues to collect questions.
Chu Guo twisted her body in the water and touched the little girl next to her with her nose to express her gratitude.
The little girl burst into tears: "It touched me, Mom, do I have elephant snot on me?"
Mom: "...No, don't cry, it's not that you want a doll."
At this time, cheers came from far outside the gate.
Everyone looked back. At this time, it should be the end of the first round of riding competition.
…
"It's almost done. I don't think there's any problem." Duan Jiaze said with satisfaction, "Let's go get busy."
Everyone is busy today, and they have found some extra temporary workers, so that there is enough manpower to maintain this event.
Duan Jiaze saw a fat penguin, guessing riddles at the entrance of the bird house, surrounded by some tourists, thinking that the mascot was acting cute.
It raised its head and stared at the parrot on the perch, and waved its wings, indicating that the parrot should ask questions. The referee was also confused and didn't know which colleague this was, but it seemed that there was no rule that mascots could not participate in the competition.
The parrot glanced at the penguin, and said weakly: "It has a big black hat on its head and a tuxedo. It has a pointed beak, so birds can't fly."
The mascot excitedly raised its wings and tried to point to itself. Even though it didn't speak, the meaning was obvious: it's me, it's me!
Everyone almost wanted to speak out what was in his heart for him, which was really strong.
The onlookers burst into laughter, "He got the answer right!"
Everyone felt that this was a well-designed performance.
Even the referee didn't figure it out, he was a temporary worker, so he thought there was such an arrangement. It stands to reason that there is no reward for only guessing one right, but the fat penguin is about to attack him, and the tourists are still watching the fun, so he has to take out a small Luya pillow from behind and stuff it for the mascot.
The mascot took the pillow and jumped excitedly—for its size, it actually shook up and down without leaving its feet on the ground.
The penguin's two wings were tightly clamped on the pillow, and it swayed and walked out. The tourists all gave way to it, and some children went to hold the tips of its wings or touch its buttocks.
As soon as he went out, the fat penguin saw Duan Jiaze standing there: "..."
Duan Jiaze folded his arms and looked at the miracle, "Huh?"
Miracle took a few steps forward, sent his wings forward, and handed the pillow to Duan Jiaze.
Duan Jiaze laughed and said, "I don't want yours, I keep it myself, and you don't have to be ashamed to cheat."
Miracle lowered its head, well, what is worse than cheating is that it is still cheating in its own home...
Duan Jiaze: "Go, go find your father and play together."
Duan Jiaze entered the stadium and let Lu Ya out. It was taken for granted that Lu Ya would not be a staff member and would do something like provide riddles to people.
Lu Ya stopped on Duan Jiaze's shoulder, leaned into Duan Jiaze's ear and said, "I saw Xiaoqing wearing a skirt and going to the competition with Xiao Rong."
Fuck, I went out in women's clothes again, and I'm still with Xiao Rong, will I be watched... Wait.
Duan Jiaze looked at Lu Ya in surprise: "Mr. Dao, are you gossiping like this?"
Lu Ya: "..."
Lu said angrily, "I mean Xiao Qing skipped work!"
Duan Jiaze laughed loudly, "Aren't you overwhelmed yourself, forget it, he has nothing to do today."
Lu Ya snorted coldly and stopped talking.
Duan Jiaze landed on his shoulders, holding Miracle in his hand, Michel hugged the pillow, and the family went out.
It happened that a family also came in, a couple brought a little boy, and the little boy also had a small Luya pillow in his hand, and the two sides met head-on.
The little boy looked at the bird on Duan Jiaze's shoulder, then at the pillow in his hand, then at the pillow in Miracle's hand, and continued to look at the bird on Duan Jiaze's shoulder. He stumbled, stood still and continued to look down at the pillow...
Duan Jiaze laughed and said, "Don't look at it, this is the original version!"
