Super Zoo

The next morning, while Su Ming and Nangong Yan were still asleep, they heard Cheng Cheng's cheers downstairs, the barking of the Labrador, and the occasional neighing of horses.

After putting on their clothes and looking down from the balcony, they saw old Avitu parked downstairs in an 18th-century carriage that they often saw in movies. The carriage was pulled by four black horses with thick fur on their legs, and there were several lamp stands hanging on both sides of the body.

Cheng Cheng shouted and jumped around the carriage, she was very happy. She often went to the zoo to interact with animals. She was brave and would touch the horses pulling the carriage from time to time. The four horses were very docile and occasionally shook their hooves.

Avitu sat in the driver's seat and drove the car. The Labrador retriever Essis squatted obediently beside Avitu, occasionally echoing Cheng Cheng's barking.

Zhao Yun squatted beside the car, studying the pattern of the car body with interest.

"Get up and get ready to go."

He and Nangong Yan got up, put on their clothes, and walked out of the room with their luggage. The door of the next room just opened, and Su Meng and Xiao Hu walked out.

The four young people all had dark circles under their eyes, and they looked like they had not fully recovered.

"Hehe..."

"Hehehe..."

After a burst of awkward laughter, the four went downstairs.

When they walked to the carriage, Su Ming found that the carriage was a little unusual. Even if they were not professionals, they could tell that it was quite old. The patterns on it were simple but elegant, and it was well maintained.

Even if it was not an antique, it was a very rare antique work.

"It has a history of about two hundred years. The materials of the main pole of the carriage are probably older. It has been completely restored and professionally maintained." Zhao Yun observed the carriage attentively, saying without looking back.

Old Avitu sat on the driver's seat and laughed proudly: "How about this car, isn't it good? This is the carriage used by the first Grand Duke of Romania to welcome guests. It has a history of more than 220 years..."

Everyone was amazed. Nurse Xiao Hu spoke frankly and asked: "Uncle, is this an antique? My goodness, it was once ridden by the Grand Duke. If it is sold, it will be worth a lot of money, right?"

Zhao Yun translated it with a smile. Old Avitu looked confused and said: "The carriage should be used for riding. Why should I sell it?"

"You will become rich if you sell it. You can buy a big house in a big city and live a good life as a rich person." Nurse Xiao Hu said.

Old Avitu's expression became even more strange, and he shook his head: "What's the use of so much money? My life is already very good now, right?"

"Okay, they are not like us who only care about money." Su Ming smiled, opened the carriage door with metal patterns, put down the footrest, and waved his hand: "Ladies first, princesses, get in the car!"

"I'll get in first!" Chengcheng jumped over first, got into the carriage and looked around curiously.

Several people entered in a line. There was a faint smell similar to sandalwood in the carriage, probably used to prevent insects. The space was large, and six people, five big and one small, were divided into two rows, sitting face to face without feeling crowded. A kerosene lamp was hung on the ceiling in the middle of the carriage, which could be lit to illuminate the carriage at night.

The luggage was tied firmly on the roof of the car.

There is a curtain between the carriage and the driver's seat in front. After opening it, you can see the situation in front. The driver can also communicate with the people in the carriage from here. Su Ming found that Old Ovituo was sitting on the driver's seat, and he also had an old double-barreled rifle.

The mountainous areas in Romania are different from those in China. In Yangchuan City, even in the mountains behind the zoo and near the Qinling Mountains, there are few ferocious animals. In the Carpathian Mountains, there are often all kinds of beasts, wild wolves and bears are very common. The first lesson for tourists who go to the mountains to take a hot spring bath is to learn how to identify bear footprints and avoid entering the territory where bears appear. Animals that get lost and enter human areas often appear in the small village at the foot of the mountain.

A very harmonious symbiotic state. There is no very clear regulation on whether humans can kill animals, but nearby residents generally do not take the initiative to harm animals for profit and entertainment, and animals are not afraid of people.

Of course, this harmonious symbiosis also has a price. In the small village of Ferrero alone, three or four people have died in the mountains in the past few decades, mostly by wild beasts.

"Woof woof woof..." A Labrador barked in front of him. Old Avitu whipped his whip in the air, making a popping sound. The four black horses pulling the carriage neighed, and the carriage under him shook slightly. The houses on both sides began to slowly retreat.

The horses pulling the carriage took small steps slowly, pulling the carriage forward slowly, and soon left the village and entered the forest in the mountains.

Looking out from the glass window of the carriage, the forest and the village are completely two different worlds. Although the village is quiet, traces of artificiality can be seen everywhere, whether it is the concrete-built slope continent with zebra crossings and arrows, or the air conditioners and electric poles outside the windows of each household, all indicate that this is a modern environment.

But once you enter the forest, all this disappears completely. There are tall fir trees everywhere on both sides, and you can hear the sound of gurgling mountain springs not far away from time to time. There is not even a ready-made road in the forest. The ground is covered with thick fallen leaves, and the carriage is moving forward between the trees.

After entering the forest, Old Atura, who was driving in front, covered himself with a large woolen blanket. Perhaps due to the weather and the abundant water vapor from the many hot springs in the surrounding area, there was also a thin but visible layer of water in the forest. The mist does not affect the view, but it gives the forest a mysterious aura.

Occasionally, a few unknown birds chirped in the forest, and the carriage passed through the mist. It seemed that forest elves might appear from the forest at any time.

In this environment, it is impossible to tell the difference between east, west and north. If it were not for the local guide Avitu to lead the way, outsiders would definitely get lost if they barged in randomly.

Fortunately, although the environment in the forest is mysterious, it does not make people feel scary, but feels ethereal.

"This is a purely natural environment." Su Ming, who is a tourist himself, couldn't help but sigh. Any natural environment can only be developed and protected by artificial participation, no matter what the thousands of things he can say. Reason, it will definitely cause damage in the end.

There may be only a small exception in the Taoyuan Reserve, because the animals there, nourished by spiritual power and led by the two pandas, have begun to evolve and have a tendency to 'form a society'.

None of them slept well last night. It was extremely quiet in the forest. It was rare that the carriage was not bumpy during the journey. The slight vibration actually helped sleep. After driving for a while, several people leaned in the carriage and soon fell asleep. Go to sleep.

At this moment, the barking sound of the Labrador dog Esis suddenly came to mind.

"Shh..." The carriage shook violently. Old Avitu tightened the reins and stopped the carriage.
