Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl
Chapter 522 - 473 Unexpected Discovery on the Night Journey of the Ancient Road

"Okay, I got it. Have them separate the cat and the gibbon into two different wards for treatment."

After pondering for a moment, Professor Bai instructed, "The gibbon requires a larger range of activity compared to the clouded leopard, so during the recovery period, send it to the rescue center in Dian Province. There's adequate space there, and the environment suits the gibbon. The clouded leopard will stay here for treatment and can be released back into the wild once it's almost recovered."

Professor Bai was extremely curious about the cat that seemed too smart to be an animal, as described by Chen Ying. He changed into different clothes and followed him to the clouded leopard's treatment area.

"Mimi, come eat this. I made it especially for you, it's definitely tastier than what he made."

Upon entering, they saw three or four young people divided into two groups, each holding a cat bowl trying to entice Big Beauty.

Big Beauty perched on the table, looking left and right, seemingly unsure of whom to choose.

The arrival of Chen Ying and Professor Bai prompted the young people to immediately put down their bowls and pretend to work diligently at their stations.

"What did you make? It smells great." Chen Ying broke the awkwardness, picking up one of the cat bowls for a glance, "Innards and egg yolk, not bad. Will Big Beauty eat it?"

Professor Bai also picked up another bowl to check, finding it to be a mix of chicken and fish paste with added egg yolk.

The egg yolk was perfectly cooked for the best texture, mixed into the meat paste, giving off a slight eggy smell, which is actually the cat's favorite scent.

The cats at the Jiamu Gully First Aid Station also eat egg yolk, with their intake maintained at once a week.

Leopard Sister likes it more, Little Jin and the little lynx also enjoy it, but Brother Leopard and Jinya don't like it.

Elder Tiger explicitly refuses to eat this stuff, and when occasionally craving, it would go find bird eggs itself, given so many 'mountain chickens' roam freely around!

Seeing Chen Ying picking up the cat bowl, Big Beauty let out a sigh of relief, trotting over and gently tapping Chen Ying's hand with its tail, signaling him to put the bowl down.

Chen Ying stifled a laugh and placed the bowl in front of it. Big Beauty bent down and started scarfing it down, glancing at Professor Bai's hand worriedly, afraid the other bowl might be taken away.

After eating, Chen Ying led it to see the two kittens.

"They still need to be observed for a while, and during this period, they can only stay in this room. If you want to come see them, just come here; the curtains won't be drawn, and you can watch for as long as you want."

The glass window on the wall of the ward is sealed, capable of shattering for escape in emergencies.

The windowsill is wide enough for a cat to lay on, but the issue is how to get up there.

This problem was solved with the help of Dao Meihua's aunt, who set up a cat corridor leading from the main entrance to the windowsill.

The hospital is managed by her aunt, and with just a word, it was settled overnight.

Big Beauty walked there two or three times by itself and then led its slightly weakened mother through the corridor to the windowsill, where they saw the two kids being carefully taken care of.

After three days of treatment, the kittens' condition improved and they can now lick milk on their own.

The nurse responsible for their care knew that overhead there were supervisors, so when conducting recovery training for the kittens, she would push them under the windowsill to facilitate a closer view for the two cats.

Seeing her children alive, the cat mother finally relaxed, starting to eat energetically to regain strength.

After the white-browed long-armed ape was sent away, Professor Bai took Teacher's wife to a scenic area for a hot spring soak.

The Dao family owns a private house there, which also has a hot spring, allowing Professor Bai to stay as he pleases, even to settle down.

Accompanying the cats until the two kittens could live with the big cat, Chen Ying also decided to leave.

He wasn't in a hurry to return to the emergency station but planned to choose a hiking route to explore.

Yin Li happened to be on annual leave and would join him for the hike.

Despite frequently meeting up these past two years, the brothers had little chance to hike and play together.

Outdoor activities over at River Source aren't considered playful, more like a constant brush with death.

After waiting two days for Yin Li, the brothers successfully reunited.

The highland wind and frost are merciless, turning a handsome young man into a weathered middle-aged one.

"Your Er Niu is amazing, this year she helped patrol during the Tibetan antelope migration. You wouldn't know how wonderful it is to patrol with a Big Cat giving early warnings. Qiangtang envies us to death, and now they're aiming to have the lynx cub and snow leopard cub live there."

It's not just about having wild animals close to humans for benefits; mainly, during patrols in the wild, unexpected events are inevitable. Having a sensible animal to help truly can save lives.

Now, the River Source Emergency Station operates more smoothly than the Jiamu Gully, resembling more a small research-focused emergency station.

With Uncle Tashi overseeing things there, and Xiao Song and Duanmu taking turns weekly, everything operates as if Chen Ying were there.

The only hassle is that several Tibetan Mastiffs sometimes compete for dominance.

Luckily, they know not to harm comrades; their competitions revolve around animal aid, herding yaks and sheep, and such.

Most impressively, three mastiffs really tamed the herd of yaks in a mountain hollow near the River Source Emergency Station, preventing them from approaching human settlements.

"Last time, a wild yak got angry and nearly trampled a yak calf to death. A group of dogs got furious and formed a lineup to deal with it, and they managed to do it. Now, that yak avoids this group of dogs, being quite well behaved."

This pack of rescue dogs even helped find people; the research team members who lost contact due to a sudden storm were all found by Er Niu and this group of dogs, without missing a single person.

The furthest person was over thirty kilometers away from the emergency station, and by the time they found him, he was almost hypothermic. Several Tibetan gazelles lay beside him, sheltering him from the wind and keeping him warm, allowing him to endure until the dogs found him.
