Chapter 22 It's a Five-legged Beast
In such a gloomy environment, the thousand-year-old banyan tree behind me also makes a creepy "chuckling" sound.

Chen Sisi couldn't help but think of the old tree becoming a spirit.

She couldn't help but grab Su Ran's arm.

"You can grab me, but can you please stop pinching me?" Su Ran's arm was pinched so hard that it hurt.

"Ah? Sorry..." Chen Sisi didn't realize that she was too nervous and used so much strength.

"Giggle."

The creepy laughter sounded again.

Dahei looked up at the big banyan tree and became alert.

Netizens held their breath and typed barrages of comments in the live broadcast room.

"It's over. The banyan tree has become a spirit. Brother Su and Miss Sister are afraid that they will be entangled by the vines and become nutrients for the banyan tree."

"Brother, I'm afraid you've watched too much anime."

"Although, this sound is really creepy and scary."

The banyan tree has become a spirit. This situation has never happened to netizens, and even Su Ran has never encountered it before. No wonder they are scared.

Su Ran comforted Chen Sisi, showing a calmer look than an ordinary person and said, "Don't panic, it is absolutely impossible for the banyan tree to become a spirit."

"According to this strange scene, I can only relate it to an animal that my grandfather told me about."

Su Ran pointed out that the source of the laughter was an animal, which made netizens curious.

"Animals? What animals?"

Su Ran said: "Binderraccoon, also called five-legged beast."

As he spoke, Su Ran took the phone, then stepped on the banyan tree with one foot and used the vines with one hand to easily jump onto a two-meter-high branch.

"Wow, did Su Shen use Qinggong again just now?"

"So cool, he looks so relaxed on a branch more than two meters high."

The camera was focused on a little binturong lying on the treetop, with its limbs hanging in the air, looking very lazy.

It looks a bit like a bear, a bit like a cat, and a bit like a weasel.

The whole body is covered with black fur, which is long, sparse, rough and fluffy.

What's strange is that there are 5 cm long tufts of hair on its ears, but they are not as handsome as those of a lynx, and instead look a bit unkempt.

"Giggle..."

The little binturong was still giggling, not noticing that it was already being watched by tens of thousands of people.

"So this is the culprit!"

"Ah, the baby is so cute but also feels so disgusting. He's the same size as a raccoon."

One thing that must be mentioned is the binturong's tail, which is almost the same length as its body, with fluffy hair and well-developed muscles.

Its flexible and powerful tail allows it to use it as a leg, which not only helps it maintain balance when climbing trees, but also enables it to grasp and wrap around other things.

Su Ran smiled calmly and said, "See? I told you that a banyan tree can't be a spirit. This guy is eating banyan fruit."

When a binturong lies on a tree trunk to rest, its whole body seems to be limp and relaxed, and it sticks out its little pink tongue, looking quite like a red panda.

When it finished eating the banyan fruit in its hand, its body suddenly fell to the ground.

Just when netizens were worried that it was going to hit the ground, the little guy took the opportunity to wrap its long tail around the tree trunk.

Holds the body firmly in place.

Just like performing acrobatics, the binturong wraps its long tail around the tree trunk, with its entire body suspended in the air, hanging upside down on the tree, and stretches its body out to eat the banyan fruits on the treetops.

"The tail is so flexible?"

"Of course, otherwise why are they called five-legged beasts?" Su Ran said, "It is because their tails look like a fifth leg that they got this name."

Su Ran was surprised to find this cute binturong on this thousand-year-old banyan tree.

"Binderraccoons are extremely rare. There are less than 200 of them in our country. They are truly endangered animals!"

This animal particularly likes to stay on tall and lush banyan trees. It is good at climbing trees and almost eats and lives on them.

A typical arboreal animal.

When they are excited, they will make a "chuckle" sound. Based on these speculations, Su Ran guessed that it was a binturong.

Netizens admired Su Ran’s explanation. After all, they really thought it was the sound made by the banyan tree at first.

The little bearcat didn't notice Su Ran, or maybe he had noticed him a long time ago but just didn't take him seriously.

"Don't underestimate this guy because he's cute. He's also very fierce." Su Ran laughed, "When they get fierce, they can be as fierce as a honey badger."

Netizens are familiar with the flat-headed brother, and now no one dares to underestimate the binturong anymore.

As a omnivorous animal, the binturong not only eats young leaves and fruits, but also occasionally catches small birds and lizards to satisfy its hunger.

But at this moment, the little binturong noticed a sparrow's nest on the opposite branch.

After all, bird eggs are also delicious food for it.

Because they can't jump between trees like monkeys, they have to get down to the ground to get from one branch to another.

The binturong landed on the ground and walked upright like a little bear, with its entire feet on the ground and its gait was very cute.

Tens of thousands of netizens are spying on the every move of small animals in nature.

Before climbing up the tree, the little binturong deliberately sprayed urine on its tail.

Then it drops its tail and climbs trees, dragging its long, fluffy tail along the way, smearing urine wherever it goes, leaving a unique scent trail.

This made netizens feel a little disgusted.

"Hey, that's too unhygienic."

"Baby, you are so dirty, mommy doesn't like you anymore."

Su Ran smiled and explained: "You are wrongly accusing it. The little guy is not unhygienic. This is actually a way for it to declare its sovereignty."

"In nature, most animals spray urine to warn others to stay away from their territory, so this is not surprising."

After climbing up the tree, the binturong came to the bird's nest, stretched its little paws in, took out a bird's egg and stuffed it into its mouth.

The mother sparrow, who had just defecated on Big Black's head, was now watching the scene gloomily from the treetops.

I didn't expect retribution to come so quickly.

However, faced with a binturong that was several times larger than itself, the mother sparrow did not dare to go up and stop it.

After all, the egg can be regenerated, but if I am gone, I am really gone.

Dahei was very happy after getting his revenge, and he started spinning in circles on the ground.

The binturong lying on the tree glanced lazily at the big black wolf on the ground with its brown eyes like two coffee beans.

There was three parts of ridicule, three parts of indifference, and four parts of indifference in his eyes.

"What does this disdainful expression mean? Does it look down on Dahei?"

"Haha, maybe people think Dahei is too stupid."

“This is definitely the calmest animal.”

Obviously netizens still don’t know enough about it.

"You have reason to be calm. Binturongs have never been hunted by carnivores in the wild," Su Ran said. "And they are very aggressive. Most of the time, their eyes and movements make them look like they want to kill anyone who comes close."

Su Ran is not exaggerating.

There is no doubt that binturongs are extremely aggressive.

There are almost no rivals of the same size.

Their aggressiveness is developed when they are young.

As soon as binturong cubs are born, they have to go through the test of being eaten by their mother due to malnutrition.

Therefore, those who can survive are also elites.

Especially those binturongs that can grow up safely are the strongest among the strong.

"Host, can you take a set of pictures and send them to me? I'll pay for them!"

Su Ran didn't want to continue disturbing the little guy, so he followed the netizens' request and took a set of photos for it. Then he said goodbye to this special forest with Dahei and Chen Sisi.
