After I became a zookeeper

The sun had sunk completely below the horizon, yet the sky in the distance looked bright as if another sun had risen.

The strong fire reflected through the sky, but there was no smoke rising. It may seem that it came from outside the world, quietly taking away the burning things.

Ye Zhi's pupils reflected the red flames, he only stayed where he was for a moment, then pulled up his legs and ran outside desperately.

The bus didn't come at the bus stop. Ye Zhi and others were so anxious that they wanted to run over. Finally, after he circled No.30 four times around the stop, the bus was late.

As soon as Ye Zhi got into the car, he discussed with the driver, "Master, Feng Qiwu is on fire, can you take me there directly?"

The expression on Ye Zhi's face was very anxious, and the driver was also worried after hearing this, "The fire, it's a big deal, there hasn't been a forest fire in the zoo for so many years, and it's Feng Qiwu's side."

The driver patted his thigh, "Don't let that big red-haired bird set the fire on its own.",

Ye Zhi: "..." Don't say it, master, you might really guess right.

Ye Zhi once saw the Phoenix fire in the bamboo garden. It had no temperature and burned quickly. The wet bamboo turned yellow, scorched and turned into white ash in an instant. There was no black smoke that would be produced by ordinary burning.

This is all in line with the characteristics of the fire he watched from afar just now.

But Ye Zhi definitely couldn't say that, so he just laughed and said, "It may be that other people accidentally caused the forest fire? Did you see that there were not many reports on the news?"

Driver: "That's what the young man said."

Seeing that the other party's attitude softened, Ye Zhi continued to instigate, "Master, I'm Feng Qiwu's breeder. Now there's a big fire there, so I have to hurry over there. Look..."

"It's easy," the driver agreed, "special time, special treatment." As soon as the driver stepped on the accelerator, the bus drove out steadily. He turned on the wireless radio and reported the driving route to the headquarters.

Seeing this, Ye Zhi felt relieved, sat down at a random place, and thought about what might have happened to Feng Qiwu.

The phoenix fire ignited, indicating that Fenghuang must have felt that something threatened him, and the only thing that made him feel threatened was the group of combat soldiers.

Ye Zhi frowned, if he really met Yan Su, he would be of no help in the past, but the moment he saw the fire, he still wanted to run over to find Fenghuang, at least to see if he was okay.

When I was anxious, the distance seemed to be several times longer than usual. Under Ye Zhi's urging, the driver almost ran away a few times, "It's already the fastest, I can't step on the gas pedal anymore," "Calm down, driving safety is the most important thing,"... ...Finally, Feng Qiwu arrived, and as soon as the door opened, Ye Zhi ran down, and the driver was still chattering in the driver's seat.

The location of the fire was on the north side of Fengqiwu, very close to the iron gate where Ye Zhi was holding the key. Ye Zhi ran over on two legs, but was still out of breath when he arrived.

He took a deep breath to calm his heartbeat, while observing the current situation.

A large group of combat soldiers surrounded the phoenix, with a few medical staff in white coats in the center. The phoenix fire burned the surrounding trees, but did not spread to the grass or people.

However, he didn't see the figure Ye Zhi wanted to see the most, he turned his head around, trying to find the Phoenix, but saw Luo Jia first.

Luo Jia also noticed Ye Zhi here, said something to the people around him, and walked towards Ye Zhi.

"Didn't I send you back?" Luo Jia's tone was not as relaxed as usual, because he was frowning tightly because he was worried about something.

"I went out for a stroll, and when I saw the fire in Fengqiwu, I rushed over." Ye Zhi's tone unconsciously became polite, "Excuse me, have you seen Phoenix?"

Luo Jia was silent for a moment, apparently also aware of Ye Zhi's sudden alienation, and replied: "It's nothing serious, I just sent him for a medical examination, the medical team wanted to anesthetize him, but encountered resistance, and now a few flying orcs are chasing him gone."

Ye Zhi pursed her lips, then looked up into the other's eyes and asked, "Is it just a physical examination?"

Luo Jia also looked back at him without avoiding his eyes, "Well, I promise."

"Okay, I'll help you appease Phoenix without anesthesia, let those orcs withdraw."

Luo Jia glanced at Ye Zhi, Ye Zhi thought that the other party didn't trust him to appease Phoenix, and was about to say something to prove it, when Luo Jia said, "Okay, you come with me."

Then he turned around and walked over there with Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi followed behind and looked at Luo Jia's back. They were actually opposites, and they became good friends by accident.

For some unknown reason, Phoenix has been restricted from freedom, and Luo Jia is the team that restricts Phoenix's freedom. Ye Zhi himself chooses to stand on Phoenix's side.

Luo Jia stopped in front and handed Ye Zhi a helmet, "Can you ride a bicycle?"

There were two small electric cars parked beside him.

Ye Zhi took the helmet and put it on, "Let's go."

The two rode neatly on the bike, led by Luo Jia to chase after the phoenix. After riding for a while, Ye Zhi saw a row of phoenix flames burning in front of the sycamore tree in the distance.

Luo Jia rushed across the line of fire without any hesitation, and Ye Zhi gritted his teeth, overcoming his fear of fire and also rushed over.

After passing by, he saw a big red bird hovering above the burning sycamore tree. Several orcs turned into large birds surrounded him, but none of them dared to go forward, just waiting for an opportunity to grab the opponent's weakness. Crowded again.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhi suddenly felt a violent shock explode in his mind, as if someone had cut off the bundle of thoughts with a knife. He hurriedly stopped the electric car, stood up against the tree next to him, hugged his head.

After the needle-prick tearing, Ye Zhi's brain returned to clarity, but he felt that something was different at this moment.

Luo Jia saw him stop suddenly, still holding his head, worried about what happened, and came to see him.

Ye Zhi was still wearing a helmet at the moment, only the visor was transparent. He could see Luo Jia's lips moving, because the sound insulation effect of the helmet was too good, but he couldn't hear what he was saying clearly.

However, Ye Zhi felt what Luo Jia was talking about—he could receive Luo Jia's emotions!

Like a butt joint of spiritual threads, Ye Zhi clearly felt that Luo Jia's emotions flowed into his brain in some way.

Ye Zhi didn't know what happened, but was shocked by the result and couldn't speak.

Suddenly, a violent mental wave hit his brain, Ye Zhi subconsciously looked at the source, and then saw the phoenix flapping its wings and flying among the burning flames.

This sudden appearance of ability let Ye Zhi know that Fenghuang was in an extremely violent mood, he wanted to destroy this whole place, but he still tried his best to suppress his crazy thoughts of destruction.

Ye Zhi understood at this moment that this was the mental riot that those orcs said happened to animals that had failed in lycanthropy.

They can't control their emotions, and they can't stop the tyrannical thoughts of destruction. They themselves are tortured by this emotion, wanting to destroy the things around them, and even want to destroy themselves.

He took a few steps forward, his chest was sore, such a phoenix... He took off his helmet and shouted at the phoenix, "I'm coming, come here!"

When Fenghuang heard his call, the violent mental threads emanating from his body suddenly calmed down slowly, and Ye Zhi could feel that his own spiritual threads were slowly comforting the other party, so this is how he can appease all kinds of animals. the reason?

"Chirp—!" There was a crisp bird song, no longer feeling irritable before, the phoenix flapped its wings, and as it gradually approached Ye Zhi, it gradually shrank into a suitable size, and then threw itself into Ye Zhi's arms inside.

Ye Zhi held the soft bird tightly in his arms, and the other's body was shaking. Ye Zhi knew that this was a normal situation after a mental riot, so he slowly comforted the other with his hands, without worrying too much.

Seeing this, the orcs squatting in the air and guarding the phoenix all fell down, turned into human figures and stood behind Luo Jia, waiting for the other party's next instruction.

Luo Jia didn't say anything, just stood quietly by the side, leaving space and time for Ye Zhi and Fenghuang.

When the phoenix in his arms finally got rid of that uncontrollable mental state, Ye Zhi nodded to Luo Jia, "Thank you."

"It's nothing." Luo Jia raised the corner of his mouth, "take him to the medical examination."

Then he turned around and left. The orcs behind him looked at each other, at the target of this trip, Phoenix, and at Lorja, and finally followed Lorja.

Fenghuang has returned to his usual state at this moment, he doesn't want to be hugged by Ye Zhi, it doesn't suit Fenghuang's temperament, he still stands on Ye Zhi's shoulder with his wings flapping.

Ye Zhi didn't care and let him go.

Arriving at the front, Luo Jia had already arranged various things. As soon as Ye Zhi came, a group of medical staff surrounded him. Because of Ye Zhi's comfort, Fenghuang was not stimulated into a mental riot this time, and he completed the physical examination cooperatively throughout the whole process. .

After it was finally over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Zhi patted Phoenix's head, "Go back and rest."

The mental turmoil was extremely energy consuming, and I was fiddled with and passed so many physical examination items just now, and my fatigue was written on every drooping feather of the whole bird.

Phoenix rubbed against Ye Zhi's head, then spread his wings and flew towards his nest.

Ye Zhi waited until Fenghuang was out of sight before looking away.The other people here are already packing their things, and after finishing the important matter of giving Phoenix a medical examination, they also have to go back to rest.

Ye Zhi saw Xiao Lin packing up tools in the crowd. He walked over and asked Xiao Lin, "I think your electric car is very handsome. Where did you buy it? I also want to find one for transportation."

Xiaolin laughed, "I have a good eye, I specially selected the model," and then carefully introduced to Ye Zhi how awesome and cool this model is compared to others. Ye Zhi listened with a smile, and finally talked about the purchase method.

Kobayashi: "It's from the zoo."

Ye Zhi: "..." He smiled and listened to so many compliments, so it's standard equipment?

Xiao Lin continued: "Every employee is eligible. After the application, the balance in the salary card will be automatically deducted. The internal price is cheap!" Xiao Lin gave a thumbs up.

The two people on this side were talking, when there was a commotion in the crowd on the other side, Ye Zhi also looked over, only to see a middle-aged man in black tweed walking over.

Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Is it the scholar who discovered that some animals in the zoo developed again?!"
