Chapter 139 The Sloth Crossing the Ocean (Fifth update)

According to several leaders, Yang Lin will be solely responsible for shooting this city promotional video.

The fee will be called to him in advance, and whatever is left is his.

Hearing this, Yang Lin could tell that Ningnan officials still remembered his contribution.

Otherwise, how could such an official project be his turn?

After another round of pleasantries, the leaders quickly left the Ecological Research Institute in a hurry.

Only a few National Geographic staff members, including Yang Lin and Teacher Xiaoliang, were left at the scene.

Just when Yang Lin thought that Teacher Xiaoliang and others would find a place to stay first, Teacher Xiaoliang suddenly said with great interest:

"Director Yang, I just happened to come to Ningnan today. I have longed for Xihong Zoo for a long time. Don't you invite me to go and see it?"

Hearing what Teacher Xiaoliang said, Yang Lin was stunned for a moment, and then quickly replied:

"Of course, no problem, you're always welcome."

"You didn't come by car. You just happened to take my car. My car is outside."

After saying that, he was about to take Teacher Xiaoliang and others to the bun outside.

However, just when a few people were about to leave, a staff member from the Ecological Research Institute suddenly rushed out of the office building.

"Director Yang, please wait a moment. I may need to trouble you about something."

Hearing the shouts behind him, Yang Lin quickly stopped.

Not long after, a young man wearing research institute uniforms walked up to him.

Behind him was a small cart.

"What's the matter?" Yang Lin looked at the panting researcher and asked with confusion.

"It's like this. The customs in Ningnan discovered a suspicious package during entry inspection two days ago, and then discovered this guy."

"Because they didn't know it at the time, they sent it to us."

"We adopted it after we found out its identity, but after all, our place is just a research institute and is not suitable for its long-term survival, so we want to send it to Xihong Zoo."

While talking, the researcher opened the cover on the trolley behind him.

As the cover fell, a strange-looking creature suddenly appeared in front of Yang Lin and Teacher Xiaoliang.

I saw this unknown creature covered with long hair, with a silly face, and long claws on its limbs.

From a distance, it looks like some kind of monkey.

If you throw it into the water, you will probably be regarded as a water monkey.

With a trace of uncertainty, Yang Lin raised his hand and a light of insight hit it.

The next second its name appeared above the talent list.

【Horizontal three-toed sloth】

Seeing this name, Yang Lin suddenly understood.

At the same time, he could not help but murmur:

"The maned three-toed sloth, isn't this a creature from South America? How could it be seized by Ningnan Customs?"

Teacher Xiaoliang on the side immediately shot out a rainbow fart after hearing his muttering.

"As expected of Director Yang, he recognized it at a glance. People who don't know it well may not be able to tell the difference between the maned three-toed sloth and the white-throated three-toed sloth."

"But it's nothing new to catch this guy at the customs. I don't know how many smuggled animals are seized by the customs in China every year."

"There are all kinds of weird and weird things. There are always some people who have special collecting habits, but it's really rare to buy these things specifically to keep them."

After saying this, Teacher Xiaoliang couldn't help but shook his head speechlessly.

After hearing his words, Yang Lin looked at the appearance of the sloth in front of him again, and then nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, this thing is ugly enough. I wonder which rich man bought this thing as a pet."

"Forget it, just take it to Xihong Zoo, where there are still some of its fellow South Americans."

After saying that, Yang Lin pushed the trolley next to his van, then opened the iron cage and took out the sloth inside.

Seeing this scene, Teacher Xiaoliang couldn't help but ask.

"Aren't you afraid that it will escape if you let it out?"

After hearing his words, Yang Lin said indifferently:

"What are you afraid of? Even if I let it run away now, it may not be able to crawl to the other side of the road if I go back to sleep."

Hearing Yang Lin's answer, Teacher Xiaoliang was stunned for a moment, and then slapped his forehead.

"Look at my brain, I almost forgot this."

As Yang Lin carried the sloth into the van, he immediately spoke to Teacher Xiaoliang and others again:

"You guys come up too."

"Okay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Teacher Xiaoliang and others were ready to get in the van and follow Yang Lin back to Xihong Zoo.

But when Yang Lin opened the car door, the three of them were collectively dumbfounded.

Looking around, except for Yang Lin's driver's seat, the entire bun was empty, and even the co-pilot had been removed.

And there was an indescribable smell inside the car.

Seeing the expressions of Teacher Xiaoliang and others, Yang Lin also said with some embarrassment:

"Hey, this car was used to pull animals, so I took apart all the useless things."

"Don't look at this car. It's only been driven for 8 years."

Teacher Xiaoliang:......

After a moment of silence, Teacher Xiaoliang looked at Yang Lin with a hint of admiration.

"The conditions in your zoo are so difficult, but you can still raise animals so well. Director Yang really treats those animals as family members."

After saying that, he waved to the two companions beside him.

"Let's go, let's get in the car."

As they spoke, the three of them sat in the back seat of the minivan, and the sloth lay in the middle.

As the car started, the sloth's limbs began to crawl at an extremely slow speed. Judging from its posture, it was preparing to escape.

But even so, no one in the car cared about it.

Until entering the gate of Xihong Zoo, it had not crawled half a meter.

When the car stopped, Yang Lin and Teacher Xiaoliang held its two front limbs on the left and right and lifted it up.

And this scene naturally attracted the attention of a large number of tourists.

Immediately, the tourists were boiling.

"Oh my god, is the director going to buy some goods?"

"As expected of Xihong Zoo, even the way they buy goods is so simple and unpretentious."

"What kind of animal is this? Why is it so ugly?"

"You know what? It's really ugly."

"It shouldn't be a native creature of Longguo. So it must be imported from abroad?"

"Don't you think the man next to the director looks familiar?"

"The face does look familiar. It looks like some animal."

"Tibetan fox, I remember, it's a Tibetan fox."

"Oh my god, he's Teacher Xiaoliang!"

As tourists gradually recognized Teacher Xiaoliang's identity, the news that Teacher Xiaoliang visited Xihong Zoo soon spread on the Internet.

Netizens were also curious about his purpose of coming to Xihong Zoo.
