After I became a zookeeper

The sycamore tree is more than ten feet high, with dense branches and crowns, covering the sky and the sun. The sun falls through the unevenly covered branches and leaves, and the inside seems to be separated from a peaceful paradise.

Ye Zhi was sitting in the phoenix's nest, with the breeze blowing, he was slowly peeling off a few pears in his hand.

After peeling one of them, the white flesh was held between thin white fingers, and he handed over a fiery red bird squatting in front of him. After the other party ate it, he peeled another one himself. Come back and eat real food."

Phoenix chirped, raised its paw and placed it on Ye Zhi's bare hand, Ye Zhi stopped, raised his eyes and looked at the big bird teasingly, wanting to see how the other party would explain, "Speak human words, don't Listen to the birdsong."

Fenghuang said slowly: "I'm afraid of being hungry." He paused to look down at Ye Zhi's abdomen, and immediately retracted it.

Ye Zhi was a little ashamed when Fenghuang looked at him like this, he coughed, rolled his eyes a few times, stopped talking, and continued to bow his head and practice.

It took them ten days to follow the team to the northern border, but it only took them two days and one night to rush back to Fengqiwu from the northern border. Phoenix has a strong ability to endure hunger, but Ye Zhi couldn't bear it, so they stopped halfway Several times, eat and drink something.

Ye Zhishi heard Fenghuang swear, "Bring him back to Feng Qiwu's lair in a fair and honest manner", filled his mind with some mature things, although he said he has no actual combat experience, but he has never eaten pork, at least he has run away from pigs.

However, when he returned to Fengqiwu, after Fenghuang threw him in Fenghuang's nest, he was about to...but before he was ready, Fenghuang turned around and flew away. .

Ye Zhi doesn't know how to describe his mood at the time, but now he is peeling off the solid shell like pulling the fur of a phoenix, and it relieves him a lot.

However, after eating five or six exercises, Ye Zhi felt that his stomach was warm and comfortable, his whole body was lazy, and his energy was very high. If you are so tired, you can still drive for two more days.

Ye Zhi glanced at Fenghuang, the shells in his hand had already piled up into a hill, and the intact shells had been peeled off, so next...

Seeing that Fenghuang turned his head, his eyes seemed to be looking at the surrounding scenery, but Fengzhuo cautiously took a step towards Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi grinned, pretending not to notice, and continued silently observing the movements of the pink phoenix.

Fenghuang approached step by step, and finally the whole big bird got his wish and sat in Ye Zhi's arms.

Ye Zhi held the phoenix in her arms, looked at the bright pink feathers of the other party, touched her, feeling so shy, what will she do next.

Ye Zhi was worrying along Fenghuang's fur, when Fenghuang suddenly turned his head and gave him a "chirp".

Ye Zhi pinched Phoenix's beak nearby, "What are you chirping?"

Phoenix tilted his head back and loosened it from under Ye Zhi's hand, and lightly pecked Ye Zhi's soft lips with his bird's beak as punishment, "Do you still remember asking me to name you?" Phoenix's voice was full of resentment, "I did it so badly. For a long time, only my name can be considered as a successful courtship."

Phoenix approached Ye Zhi threateningly, Ye Zhi was pushed back by the opponent's huge size, and finally lay down directly in Phoenix's nest.

The body was covered with soft and thick moss, and the big pink-haired phoenix was sitting in its arms. The sunlight shone from among the leaves, and the face of the leaves and branches seemed to be covered with broken gold.

Ye Zhi grabbed one of the phoenix's wings and pulled it away. "Maybe you will transform into a human first." Ye Zhi looked at the big phoenix above his head. "There is still a great reproductive isolation between humans and birds."

Fenghuang's movements paused for a moment, and after a while, he transformed into a human form, with a slender body propped on Ye Zhi's body, and he was still wearing the military uniform he had been wearing before. flashing.

Phoenix's gaze brushed over the brim of the military cap and landed on Ye Zhi's face. The shadow cast by the brim of the hat covered Phoenix's eyes, making his originally sharp Phoenix eyes even more oppressive. Military uniform, the temperament of the whole person is like a cold knife coming out of the body.

But only Ye Zhi noticed that Phoenix's earlobes were red.

"My name." Fenghuang said word by word, with a solemn tone, like a prayer, more like some kind of pious ceremony.

"Extremely difficult," Ye Zhi raised his hand to touch Phoenix's ear, "May you be different from suffering from now on." He propped up his upper body and gently kissed Phoenix's eyes, "May you be a free bird in the world forever." Bird, these eyes look at the mountains, the water, and me," Ye Zhi covered Phoenix's eyes with his hands, "Just don't look at things that make you unhappy."

"Extremely difficult..." Fenghuang repeated the name in the darkness brought by Ye Zhi, he did not take away Ye Zhi's hand, and slowly bent down, the two breaths intertwined, "This is my name, I am you Phoenix."

Ye Zhi's breath was getting wet, his hand covering Phoenix's eyes hung down, and was held by Phoenix, the other's five fingers were firmly squeezed into the gap between his fingers, and his fingers were interlocked, pressing his hand on top of his head.

Ye Zhi's head was a little dizzy for a moment, he blinked and looked at the eyes of Phoenix above him.Phoenix's pupils are very beautiful, and he can clearly see the pure black wheel-shaped rays inside, without a trace of grayscale.

Now there are his shadows inside, and the other party is staring at him closely, as if a deep spring reflects his reflection, trying to drown him completely.

They love each other.

This is his phoenix, named after him.

"Extremely difficult..." Ye Zhi called softly, his voice hoarse.

Phoenix responded, and responded to Ye Zhi's call tirelessly, giving him a response.

The wind is still blowing, and the cool wind comes and goes from the wilderness with the fragrance of green grass, trees and land. Maybe he will blow through this ancient sycamore tree, bring out the breath inside, and dissipate it in a wider area in the wind.

The sun is shining, everything is growing luxuriantly, Fengqiwuli is full of vitality, the grass is sprouting resiliently, the trees are expanding their annual rings, the flowers are in full bloom, and the birds are singing loudly. Everything is the most beautiful thing.

Right now, everything is lovely.

-

It has been seven days since Ye Zhi and Fenghuang came out of Fengqiwu, and at this time, the army that went to the northern border is almost returning to the central city.

Ye Zhi buried all the husks he ate with Fenghuang in the past seven days in the soil, and let it decompose naturally to make fertilizer. He patted his hands that were stained with some soil, and stretched out his hands behind him, and slowly wiped them dry with a handkerchief. Clean the mud off your hands.

Ye Zhi simply turned around and spread his palms, letting the other party deal with him, "Are you going back to the military headquarters later? Send me to the scientific research building first. After running for such a long time, the scholars will probably make me work overtime to make up for it."

Fenghuang wiped Ye Zhi's fingers, then put away his handkerchief, and led him outside, "Although most of the animals in the northern border have been wiped out, there must still be some fish that escaped the net, and someone needs to continue to sit there to deal with it..." Yu Guangzhong noticed Seeing Ye Zhi's uncoordinated walking posture, he stopped immediately.

He turned into a bird shape, carried the leaf branch on his back, and flew directly into the sky.

Ye Zhi lay on Fenghuang's back and patted Fenghuang's neck, "Hey, didn't you mean to walk for a while?" Ye Zhi put his head down, "After staying in the tree for seven days, I don't think I can walk anymore."

He looked at the flying phoenix, "Isn't there any contradiction between switching the form of birds flying with wings and humans walking with legs?"

Fenghuang thought for a while, and said: "I don't think being able to walk has anything to do with staying in the trees, it has something to do with Qi Tian, ​​so this problem has nothing to do with birds, but it has something to do with me."

Ye Zhi: "..."

Ye Zhi didn't expect that Fenghuang would suddenly become eloquent, so that he didn't know what to say for a while. Looking back, he lay on Fenghuang's back in a daze, thinking resentfully, what about the stupid, shy and bullying Fenghuang he used to be?

Thinking of what happened in the past seven days, Ye Zhi felt that the stupid, shy and bullying phoenix might be gone forever, and the memories of being held in the phoenix's nest were intertwined with the emotions at this time, and he pinched bitterly. Phoenix hair.

However, none of them fell off, after pulling Ye Zhi to look at it, and smoothing out the hair silently, Fenghuang "chirped" in front of him, but Ye Zhi didn't want to know what the other party said at this moment.

When they arrived at the scientific research institute, Ye Zhi jumped off Fenghuang's back, then quickly turned around and walked away together, without giving Fenghuang a chance to say anything.

When he arrived at his office, Ye Zhi heaved a sigh of relief without looking at the scholar.However, when he saw the thick stack of report cards in front of Liuying, Ye Zhi lifted his breath just now.

He picked up a report sheet and checked the items on it carefully. It was the one he filled out before, and it was correct, but... He looked at the pile of report sheets that were as high as the computer screen. How could there be so many?

"Oh, this," Liu Ying pushed her eyes, and was still diligently sorting out the data in front of the computer emitting blue light, "This is the work arrangement of Teacher Ye for the past three years."

"In the past three years?" Ye Zhi looked at the computer suspiciously, "Why did you arrange all the work for the past three years? And," Ye Zhi pointed to the stack of report sheets, "Even if it is three years, this stack is divided among Every week is too much."

"I don't know..." Liuying spread her hands innocently, "It was ordered by the scholar."

"Okay, I'll go find the scholar." Ye Zhi was about to turn around when the scholar's voice came from behind.

"Xiaoye, are you back?" The scholar looked at Ye Zhi in surprise, "I'm here to talk to Liu Ying about my daily work schedule..."

Ye Zhi was about to ask the scholar about this, but the scholar seemed to have understood his thoughts, and signaled him to be calm, "Now that the problem of animals in the northern border has been solved, the remaining small numbers will not be able to cause any disturbance. They will all be eliminated.”

The scholar walked to Liuying, pointed to the scrolling information on it and said to Ye Zhi: "This is the statistics of the number of animals returned from various places over the years, as well as the animals sent back from the battlefield for mental riots, and they are classified according to the seriousness , all arranged in the recent period of time. As for the number of queues behind..."

The scholar pointed to the stack of forms on the desk, "It's all here."

At this time, Liuying poked her head out from behind the screen, "It's still printing, visually, the printed data is only one-tenth of the data."

Ye Zhi: "..."

He felt that he would never have to worry about being unemployed in his life, and the iron rice bowl was directly welded to death in his hands.

After further communicating with the scholars about the daily workload, Ye Zhi felt that it was still within an acceptable level. After all, although the workload was heavy, there were too many of them, so Ye Zhi succumbed without a bottom line.

The days passed smoothly in the orderly work that was arranged. Ye Zhi has gradually adapted to the current work intensity during the first few days of continuous work. Sometimes he encounters animals that are easy to appease, and he can leave work early to find Fenghuang for dinner.And most of the time, Phoenix flew over to look for Ye Zhi, and sometimes when both of them were busy, they would eat their own food.

It's just that Ye Zhi leaves a window in the dormitory every night, so that a big bird who works late at night can climb in through the window.

Life is busy and fulfilling, and it is moving steadily toward the future. Soon, two major events, Fenghuang's succession to the throne and the wedding of Fenghuang and Ye Zhi, will come together.

No matter the succession ceremony or the wedding ceremony, Ye Zhi and Fenghuang don't have to worry about it personally, only the special ceremony officer will prepare it. Ye Zhi originally planned to intervene in the wedding, but the daily tasks given by the scholar piled up his time. Full, finally give up.

It's just that the etiquette officer was not sure about inviting guests, so he ran over to ask Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi talked about this with Fenghuang at night, "Xiao Lin, Liu Ying and scholars will definitely be invited, but these few people seem to be a little less, I want to invite all the small animals I have raised in the zoo together , they have all become orcs now..."

Ye Zhi was chattering over there, and Fenghuang raised an eyebrow beside him, "There are so many animals raised in the zoo."

Ye Zhi didn't notice anything wrong with Fenghuang, and stretched out his fingers to point them one by one, "Yes, I have raised pandas and pterosaurs, these two have been raised for a period of time, and there are also mermaids and golden monkeys in the relationship between dew, The Xuntu and the scorpion that met by chance..."

And Fenghuang, who was listening to the list of animal names beside him, was already distorted. He turned over and pressed Ye Zhi under him, directly blocking the opponent's mouth, preventing him from saying those annoying names again.

So when the etiquette officer came to Ye Zhi again the next day to ask the guests to choose, Ye Zhi said to the other party with a blank head: "I will contact you personally, you don't have to worry about it."

Afterwards, Ye Zhi and the scholar took a day off to go to the zoo.

When a scholar approves leave, his expression is painful, and his heart is bleeding. Ye Zhi looks at the other party's "reluctant" look, and thinks that when he and Fenghuang get married, he asks you for leave to prepare for the wedding and honeymoon. You don't know how to feel sad .

In the zoo, Xiaolin received Ye Zhi. The animals Ye Zhi raised in the garden went to work after they became beastmen, and scattered all over the world. Ye Zhi came to the zoo mainly for their contact information.

After hearing Ye Zhi's purpose of coming here, Xiao Lin told him the ticket: "The whereabouts of the orcs who go out in the zoo are recorded in the book, and they will visit them every once in a while to see how their mental state is, and they will definitely not lose contact. You can rest assured about this."

Ye Zhi asked Xiao Lin where to find this record. He heard that it was in the personnel department. Ye Zhi smiled slightly. At first he was still thinking about how to transfer to Feng Qiwu as a breeder. In a blink of an eye, he had directly abducted Fenghuang home. up.

Xiao Lin originally planned to accompany Ye Zhi to look for it, but a puppet cat in the zoo was injured suddenly and needed Xiao Lin to seek treatment, so Ye Zhi went to the personnel department alone.

Walking on the familiar road, a year has passed in a trance, many things have happened, and many people have met. The mentality at this time is completely different from that at that time.

When walking to the small road in front of the building of the personnel department, Ye Zhi met a familiar person.

The moment they saw each other, both stopped in their tracks.

"Luo Jia..." Ye Zhi was the first to speak out.

Luo Jia stared at Ye Zhi for a long time, then smiled faintly, "Don't come here without any problems."

Ye Zhi looked at him, and finally replied in a neutral tone.

After the previous two experiences, they didn't know what to say when they met again, and Ye Zhi didn't know how to treat each other.Not to mention hatred, until now he doesn't have such strong emotions towards Lorgar, the disappointment and anger of being betrayed has been washed away by time, and now it's just a touch of boredom.

Ye Zhi nodded as a greeting, and then turned to pass Luo Jia, but the other party stopped him.

"Let's talk," Lorgar said. "I never said sorry."

Ye Zhi stopped in his tracks, but just said: "Just say sorry, as for the reason, I don't need to explain, I heard from the emperor that I am not interested in the battle between your two factions, and now your faction has also lost, right?" Ye Zhi glanced at Luo Jia lightly, "I'm not interested in his mental journey."

Luo Jia was silent for a moment, and then said sincerely: "I'm sorry, but I deceived you by getting involved in this matter and hurting you."

"I made a wrong decision, and I will pay the price for the impact on others," Luo Jia said, "I was sent to the northern border by the Phoenix, which can be regarded as exile. I will stay there for the rest of my life and lead troops deep into the hinterland to solve those omissions." If I come back one day, I will either kill the last northern animal, or return to an animal and be sent back as a wounded soldier."

Luo Jia finally smiled lightly: "So you can rest assured that you will not encounter bad things when you come to me in the future."

Ye Zhi closed his eyes, opened them again, let out a breath, said, "Yeah." Then he walked away.

Luo Jia stood where he was, watching Ye Zhi leave.Now it's autumn, the yellow leaves are hanging down on the branches, like flying yellow butterflies, obviously the leaves are moving towards the shade of fallen leaves, but Luo Jia feels that he is left alone in the bleak late autumn.

Ye Zhi successfully obtained the contact information of the orcs who left the zoo, and Luo Jia had already left when he walked out of the personnel department.Ye Zhi stood on the steps for a while, feeling a little bored, so he thought of doing something to cheer him up.

He rubbed his face. Since he came to the zoo, he might as well pluck the fluffy ones. Although his daily job now is to appease all kinds of animals with mental riots, including some cute furballs, there is still a big difference between work and relaxation.

And it happened that Fenghuang was not there, so there was no need to worry about coaxing a jealous jar.

Ye Zhi slowly rolled his eyes, thought about the animals in the zoo, and finally decided to see the giant pandas.

The big dumpling in black and white, Ye Zhi was originally the number one cutest pet in the world, and the first choice for fluffy hair.Ye Zhi found his way and went to the Panda House. The giant panda he raised before was sent away as a beastman, and a new panda was moved into the zoo.

Ye Zhi revealed his identity, and the staff of the panda house happily invited him in after verification.

This is Ye Zhi, usually the giant pandas can't be sent to him in line, but now they take the initiative to come and pet the giant pandas, three are not enough!

The staff members were all smiles, handing the giant panda leaves and sticks, and even balding.

Ye Zhi looked at the dazed panda cub in his hand who was still disconnected, and his cute heart melted. After patting the red-haired phoenix at home for a long time, seeing this giant panda with dark circles is simply novel and lovable.

Sure enough, house flowers don't have the fragrance of wild flowers, no, I can't say that, I look like a scumbag, Ye Zhi contentedly puts his hands on the big dumpling in his arms, changing an adjective, and changing himself to a new taste, can't he catch the same plush Cashmere.

Seeing that Ye Zhi and the panda were having fun, the staff let in the other two giant pandas. They were all panda cubs brought in from the same batch.After looking at Ye Zhi, the other two took the initiative to lean on Ye Zhi, and the three pandas grabbed and pulled Ye Zhi like they were climbing a tree.

Ye Zhi was having fun with them, he didn't notice that a figure slowly covered himself, he even touched the giant panda in his arms and said, "Ah, it's fragrant and soft, much better than the one at home."

"Really?" A voice came from behind coldly.

"It's a duck." Ye Zhi was having so much fun, he answered subconsciously, and when he realized something was wrong, he broke out in a cold sweat. The voice just now seemed a little familiar.

Ye Zhi slowly, slowly raised his head back, and saw Fenghuang smiling down at him.

Ye Zhi: "..."

death stare.

Ye Zhi: "Listen to my explanation."

At this time, he couldn't think of any other words except Ye Zhi.

Phoenix: "No need."

Then he changed back to his original form, flapped his wings, grabbed Ye Zhi by the collar and brought him back to the Phoenix Nest.

On the sycamore tree in Fengqi Wuli, Ye Zhi was lying down in the nest under the weight of Fenghuang, a big bird. He tried to save himself calmly, "Why did you come here suddenly? Isn't there a meeting at the military headquarters this afternoon?"

Phoenix smiled, "The meeting was postponed suddenly, did it interrupt your plan?"

Ye Zhi: "...No, I dare not, let me explain..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fenghuang held his mouth down with his claws.

Ye Zhi: "..." He was wrong.He endured.

"It smells like the feathers of other birds." Fenghuang suddenly approached Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Don't talk nonsense, I only have one bird."

"Then what about those three ugly things just now?" Fenghuang was displeased, "The black and white color scheme is so ugly."

Ye Zhi: "..."

Ye Zhi: "Sometimes, it is necessary to understand different aesthetics, such as pandas—"

"Chirp!" Fenghuang suddenly moved closer to Ye Zhi, with his claws down, he unhooked Ye Zhi's first button, "Choose them or me, there is only one chance."
