Chapter 523: Saving the Leopard
“It smells good, don’t you? Want to take a sip.”
Seeing Zhu Yuliang swallowing his saliva, Zhang An chuckled, and after opening the lid of the glass bottle, He also specially handed it to Zhu Yuliang so that he could smell it closer.
“Isn’t this stuff a veterinary drug? Can people drink it too?”
Because Zhang An said it would be used to feed the seriously injured leopard, Zhu Yuliang thought it was The veterinary medicine prepared by Zhang An never thought that it could be used by humans.
“Okay, I didn’t say it was a veterinary drug. Drinking it is very beneficial to the body, but I only take this amount now. If you drink it, the leopard lying on the ground will be It’s gone.”
The effect of space crystal dew is a hundred times more magical than space spring water. After Zhang An studied it some time ago, he quietly added some to Mr. Zhang’s tea cup.
Although Mr. Zhang was originally in good health, he has been walking with some trembling in the past two years.
Unexpectedly, after Zhang An gave the old man some Lingquan crystal dew, he walked very steadily in a few days and his physical vitality recovered a lot.
I felt as if I were ten years younger, and I didn’t take a breath when climbing uphill.
Originally, Zhang An himself was in good health, so he only knew that this thing was very helpful to the human body, but there was no specific measure of how much.
Now that he sees Mr. Zhang’s feedback, he clearly knows how miraculous the effect of this thing is.
But the magic is magic, but there are too few of them.
After a month of being outside, I was able to accumulate a little bit of this spiritual spring crystal dew, which was about three or four cups the size of a wine cup.
This time Zhang An brought about a small cup, and he was reluctant to part with more. This was also for Zhu Yuliang's sake.
After all, he didn't know before he came that these two leopards were the two little guys that were spinning around him in the space before.
"Forget it, I'm fine now. There's nothing wrong with me. Why do I drink this stuff? Let's feed it to the leopard first."
Zhu Yuliang originally heard Zhang An say , drinking this stuff has great benefits for the human body, and I have begun to be tempted.
But after hearing that it was difficult to match, he gave up the idea of asking for some.
He felt that he was in good health and had no problems, so he might as well rescue the leopard first. After all, this was a naked achievement.
This is because Zhu Yuliang does not know the effect of this spiritual spring crystal dew. Otherwise, he will definitely want to use it for himself, because this leopard is just an animal after all.
Then Zhang An poured the crystal dew into the cup Zhu Yuliang found, and then poured some spring water from the gourd into it.
After all, the crystal dew was just a little bit, and it was poured directly into the mouth of the leopard. I was afraid it would be gone before it could drink it.
"Lao Zhu, hold the cup. After I open its mouth, you pour it in."
Zhang An mixed the crystal dew and spring water, and then He handed the cup to Zhu Yuliang.
Because the leopard on the ground has its mouth tightly closed at this time, it has to be opened before the mixed spring water can be poured in.
But the leopard's mouth has such a strong bite force that even if it doesn't react now, it would be difficult for ordinary people to open it.
A leader like Zhu Yuliang who has been squatting in the office will definitely not be able to do this kind of work, so Zhang An can only do it himself.
With his hands free, Zhang An reached out and pinched the leopard's mouth, and with a little force, he opened the upper and lower jaws.
“Ugh... vomit, vomit, it smells so bad, I almost made me vomit.”
But as soon as the leopard's mouth was opened, a fishy stench immediately came from the mouth, making Zhang An and Zhu Yuliang feel nauseated.
After all, this thing lives in the wild all year round and eats raw meat dripping with blood. It would be weird if it didn't stink.
"Be patient, stay farther away, let's feed him quickly, we won't be able to bear it for a long time."
Zhu Yuliang was relatively far away, so Zhang An Next to the leopard's head, the fishy smell hit him directly.
So Zhang An turned his head and took a breath and said, then holding his breath, he opened the leopard's mouth and asked Zhu Yuliang to quickly pour it in.
Zhu Yuliang was not slow in his movements. He held his nose with one hand and poured the spring water into the leopard's mouth with a cup in his other hand.
However, because I knew that the small bottle of potion that Zhang An brought was difficult to handle, I poured it very carefully without spilling it at all.
After doing this, the two immediately ran outside to take a breath of fresh air.
I used to hear people say that whether they are animals or wild beasts, their mouths smell very bad.
At that time, Zhang An did not have a clear understanding, but now he has seen it.
After a few minutes of relief, Zhang An went back in to check on the leopard.
At this moment, Zhang An clearly felt that the breath exhaled by the big guy on the ground was much louder than before, and it gradually stabilized. The situation was much better than before.
And it has only been a few minutes. If we wait a little longer, the big guy on the ground will probably wake up.
"Zhang An, the medicine has been given, do you need to do anything else?"
Zhu Yuliang didn't know anything about what to do next, so he could only ask Zhang An.
“There is nothing to do for the time being. This guy has started to breathe smoothly now, which is much better than before. The only thing left is to get iron sand for them, but I don’t have the tools now, and the leopard’s current state does not support this. Go ahead and wait.”
Zhang An took a closer look just now and found that the leopard’s chest should have been sprayed with a gun from close range, and the iron sand was basically penetrated.
Some of the iron sand is just stuck in the flesh, but some of it has already sunk into the blood vessels. If you rush to clean the iron sand, it will be very harmful to the big guy in this state.
If you want to clean up the iron sand, you have to wait until the leopard has recovered to a certain level. Even if there is any damage by then, it will not be as serious as it is now.
Or there is another way, to bring the two leopards directly from Zhu Yuliang to his home, and then move them into the space to retrieve them.
That way is the best for them. Not only does it cause no harm, but it can also help the wound heal.
Hearing what Zhang An said, Zhu Yuliang immediately put his hand in front of the golden leopard's nose. Sure enough, he could feel that the breath he was exhaling now was much louder than before, and it was no longer so urgent.
"In that case, let's go out to eat first. There's nothing wrong with staying here. It's getting late now."
Zhu Yuliang didn't know whether Zhang An was hungry, but he His stomach was already protesting, and it was getting dark outside. It was almost night, and he was worried that the leopard would suddenly wake up.
"Okay, let's go. I haven't eaten Uncle Wen's cooking for a long time."
There is a chef in the Forestry Bureau's own canteen named Wen Zhonghe, probably Over fifty years old.
Zhang Anlai has eaten it several times and knows that this person has real skills.
I heard from Zhu Yuliang before that Uncle Wen was the royal cook in the palace, and his skills were passed down to him by the elders in his family since he was a child.
Later, after joining the army, I became a comrade-in-arms with the previous leader of the Forestry Bureau. After he was discharged from the army, he was persuaded to take charge of the kitchen.
However, the unit canteen of the Forestry Bureau is not very big, and it is equivalent to coming here for retirement.
The people below also know about this relationship with the former leader who has been promoted, so everyone respects him.
"Uncle Wen, please help Zhang An and I get a few dishes. We are really hungry."
Walking into the cafeteria, I only saw Wen Zhonghe leaning on the recliner comfortably, There is a radio next to it, and an opera program is playing on it.
For Wen Zhonghe, even Zhu Yuliang had to call him Uncle Wen, after all, his age and seniority were there.
"Hey, Xiao Zhang is here, you kid hasn't been here for a long time."
As soon as he heard that Zhang An was coming, Wen Zhonghe immediately opened his eyes and stood up from the recliner. He also reached out and turned off the radio.
This man usually looks lukewarm to everyone in the Forestry Bureau, even Zhu Yuliang.
It's just that he is different towards Zhang An, much more enthusiastic than others.
Of course, this is not without reason. It all started when Zhang An delivered vegetables to the Forestry Bureau last year.
A true cook always has a heart for pursuing ingredients.
Last year, Zhang An was discovered by this person after he delivered the food from home.
After learning that Zhang An’s family grew vegetables of this level, his attitude towards Zhang An immediately changed.
Zhang An naturally would not refuse the friendly gesture from the senior.
There is no harm in having more friends. As long as you learn a thing or two about Uncle Wen's skills, it's totally worth it.
Although Zhang An's own cooking skills are good, they are only good. The rest is basically improved by the consumption of ingredients, which is not at the same level as the successor of the royal chef.
When Wen Zhonghe had something important to do at home, and he wanted to entertain some important people, he would go to Zhang An's house to get some vegetables.
So after going back and forth, the old man and the young man are quite familiar.
"Haha, isn't it because I have a child that I am tied up with it? Naturally, I am not like before. I can often run outside and take care of the child."
Zhang Anhaha He smiled and said hello to Wen Zhonghe.
"You kid, you're just talking nonsense. I didn't see you coming here often before I had children, but it's already dark today. Why are you two here just now to finish eating? If it had been later, I would have packed it up and gone home."
Since there was no one else around, Wen Zhonghe did not change his clothes. He just put on his sleeves and washed his hands, then took out the ingredients and started processing them.
“Stop talking, it’s not all about those two leopards.”
Zhu Yuliang sighed, his thoughts have been basically focused on the two leopards these days. , usually he may not be so concerned about his wife and children at home.
“Xiao Zhu, I’m not saying too much. There should be no problem with the one that’s still alive, but the one that’s lying still probably won’t survive. In my opinion, it doesn’t have much hope, so it’s time to let it go. It’s time to let go, but don’t end up working in vain.”
As a member of the Forestry Bureau, Wen Zhonghe naturally knew that two great masters had come to the unit in the past two days.
"Uncle Wen, you guessed wrong. Because of this incident, I specially captured this kid from the village. The one lying motionless now has begun to get better."< br>
Zhu Yuliang smiled and said to Wen Zhonghe proudly.
"Oh? You kid actually hides such a skill?"
When Wen Zhonghe heard this, he looked at Zhang An with a little astonishment in his eyes.
He had seen the two leopards before, and the one lying on the ground was really breathing in a small amount and breathing out a lot.
So many people came to the veterinary station, and so much time was spent. The result became more and more serious. Logically speaking, it was probably impossible, but I didn’t expect that this kid saved me.
Soon, Wen Zhonghe prepared three dishes.
Because it was late at night, he didn’t want to make it too troublesome, so he basically made a meat, a vegetable and a soup.
Twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts, stir-fried fern moss, and mushroom and shredded pork soup.
Knowing Zhang An's appetite, Wen Zhonghe specially made a larger pot and steamed a small pot of rice.
But Zhang An himself ate with gusto.
Although Wang Fang's craftsmanship is paired with vegetables grown with space spring water at home every day, the taste is no worse than those made in some big restaurants.
But Wen Zhonghe’s craftsmanship is not limited. Just ordinary ingredients can produce excellent taste in his hands. It is indeed a pleasure to eat.
“Speaking of Zhang An, do you still have a few mountain pigs left in your family?”
While Zhang An was immersed in eating, Old Man Wen suddenly asked.
"What's wrong, Uncle Wen, there are still four left to raise."
Zhang An was a little curious and asked what Old Man Wen was doing with his mountain pigs now. When he killed the pigs a few years ago, He had already divided one with Zhu Yuliang, could it be that he wanted to kill another one now?
“It’s like this. I have an old friend. His eldest grandson is going to be a full moon in a while. He asked me to help him take care of it. I sent some of the pork I bought from your family to them. Give it a try, and now he asked me to ask if there are any more. He wants to buy one."
Although he learned through Zhu Yuliang years ago that Zhang An's family also raised four, he did not reply. My old friend, I came to ask Zhang An first.
“Actually, I don’t plan to sell or kill my four pigs, because Gunshan piglets are not easy to buy, and there are many people in the village who want to buy them, so I plan to keep them for breeding, but since Uncle Wen said, "I will leave one for you, but there are no more boars."
Although there are four pigs left in Zhang An's family, they are only one male and three females, because the other boars are old. They had all been slaughtered before, but now the only boar had never been gelded.
Many people do not like to eat sow pork because the meat is older and not as good as gelded male pork.
But it doesn’t really matter the few gilts in Zhang An’s family. After all, they have only been raised for a year and are often fed with space spring water. They are definitely different from other sows.
But no matter what, Zhang An still had to make it clear to Wen Zhonghe first to prevent others from feeling cheated when they saw it was a sow.
Of course, if the other party doesn't mind, that's the best thing. You can leave one more for breeding.
If the other party doesn't mind, just sell it. It's rare for Wen Zhonghe to talk to him, so Zhang An can't refuse.
"Okay, I'll tell him in the next two days. As for whether he wants it or not, let him decide for himself."
Whether it's a boar or a sow, Wen Zhonghe has nothing to do with it. Not satisfied, after all, he is just a messenger.
