Li Du was puzzled by Steve's words. "What interest? What interest do I have in it? "
"Haha, that's good. I'm going to save it and keep it as a pet," Steve said expectantly.
Li Du laughed and said, "You wish. It's hard, man. This is an adult manul. It's wild and can't be tamed."
Steve said confidently, "As long as I have the perseverance, as long as I give it love and affection, I think I can move it."
Li Du didn't know who gave him the courage to say this. He looked at Elson and said, "Sir, you protect this child too well. He has to know how hard it is to live in this world."
Steve waved to the bodyguard, then pointed to his heart and said, "Of course I know. I fight every day to survive."
Seeing his confidence, Li Du did not say much. He spread his hands and said, "Do as you please.
Steve was ambitious and said, "It's good that you're not interested in it. I was afraid you'd like this guy again and want to adopt it. Now you've made the right choice. You already have a group of pets. It's time to give one to me. "
The Ford brothers also rushed over. Young Ford rubbed his hands and said, "Manul? This thing is interesting. Let me tame it. "
Big Ford shook his head. "Let me do it. Look at this poor little thing. It seems to be born with me. Don't you feel it looking at me?"
Steve said, "When a manul looks at something, it's often ready to hunt."
Li Du couldn't stand it anymore. The group of people poked their heads around, and the manul, which had been frightened because it had fallen into the crevice and swamp, was even more frightened. It looked like it was about to die.
However, he understood what the group was thinking. These guys saw that they had a group of obedient and capable pets, and they were inevitably envious, so they set their eyes on the manul they had met by chance.
The reason they were so enthusiastic about the manul was that they had asked Li Du why his pets were so obedient and so attached to him.
What could Li Du say? He could only tell them the story of how he got these little guys.
The group concluded that when he got these pets, they were all in danger. For example, Ah Meow was caught in a hunting trap, Ah Ow was just born, Ali was abandoned by his mother, and so on.
They kept this experience in mind. Now that they saw the manul in danger, they felt that it was a good start, just like when Li Du got his pet.
The three of them began to argue about the ownership of the manul, who it belonged to, and who could save it.
Li Du wanted to laugh. The manul was about to fall into the swamp. It was almost up to its neck. The few of them were still arguing. If they kept arguing, they would have to set up a monument for the manul.
The manul was screaming in fear. Li Du could not stand it anymore and said, "Who cares who it belongs to, hurry up and do it!"
The three of them also realized that the situation was not good. Steve took a shovel from the bodyguard, stepped on a rock, and began to dig the mud.
The appearance of this small swamp was a bit strange. It was located in a crack in the stone, which was rare in the taiga.
The mud moved slowly, and Steve waved the shovel fast enough to quickly hollow out the area around the manul. Then he changed to a big shovel, stuck it under the manul, and dragged it out along with the mud.
The manul was covered in mud, leaving only its fat head clean.
After it was rescued, it hurriedly shook its body with all its might, flinging the muddy water out with a swishing sound.
The mud was stinky, and people retreated to avoid it.
Steve endured the stench and stayed by the side. He smiled and waved at the manul. "Come, little fatty, come to me. Come to daddy …"
The manul shook off most of the mud on its body, broke into a run, and did not even look back as it ran for its life.
Steve suddenly became anxious, waved his hand and shouted, "Go after it! Get it back for me! "
This was the pet he had been looking forward to for a long time. It was not easy to come across an animal in a desperate situation and give him a chance to rescue it. He could not let the manul escape.
The group of people chased after it. Although the manul's short legs could not run very fast, that was only relative to wild beasts. For humans, it was still fast enough.
The poor manul was scared out of its wits. At this time, it was really gritting its teeth and using all its strength to escape. It was using its life to escape, and it disappeared quickly.
Steve chased after it, shouting, "Don't run! Come back here! Huff, huff, huff! "
Elson also chased after it, shouting, "Steve, don't do strenuous exercise! You stop! Protect your heart! "
Li Du shook his head, not knowing what to say.
He and the others found a flat place to light a campfire for lunch. A large number of mosquitoes flew over, and if he was not careful, Li Du's exposed skin would have a bunch of bumps.
However, his body had adapted to the mosquitoes' toxicity, and the bumps did not hurt or itch, so it was not too much of a hindrance.
Staying in Siberia was to suffer. There might be some game in the wild elsewhere, but what was there in Siberia?
Li Du pondered for a moment. He had to find some game, not for eating, but for fun and to boost the morale of the team.
There were some birds living in the Siberian tundra, and because there were no trees, the birds could only build their nests and eggs on the ground.
There were no snakes and few rats, so the eggs were safer on the ground.
Unfortunately, these birds did not expect a team of enemies to come that day, specifically searching for nests and eggs on the ground.
Brother Wolf and the others were experts in wilderness survival. They did not search blindly, but looked up in the air for birds and followed their tracks to find nests.
The tundra was still cold in April, and most of the birds did not return. Long-tailed skuas were the most common in the air.
Li Du and the others soon found the nest of a long-tailed skuas, which could lay four to six eggs, about the size of chicken eggs. The eggshells were turquoise and hard.
There were six eggs in the nest. Brother Wolf wanted to pick them up, but Li Du stopped him and said, "Take four and leave two for the mother bird. We can't be too cruel."
Brother Wolf and the others were speechless.
They took away four eggs, and two long-tailed skuas flew over their heads and screamed, not knowing if they were scolding them for being shameless or praising them for having a conscience.
There were not many nests in the tundra, and looking for eggs was just fun.
Li Du released Ah Meow and Ah Ow to look for nests, which would improve efficiency. If they only looked with their eyes, the search area was too small, and the chances of finding nests were too low.
After searching outside for a while, they came back with two bags of eggs. At this time, Steve and the others came back. Li Du looked at his crestfallen face and smiled. "Where's your pet?"
Steve gave him a sideways glance and said, "You want to see me make a fool of myself?"
Li Du laughed and said, "Why would I?"
Steve also laughed. "Yes, why would I let you see me make a fool of myself?"
He went to open the car door. There was a cage in the car, and the unlucky manul was shivering in it.
