Chapter 463 The Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix



The female green peafowl had finished drinking and was pecking at the ground with her head lowered in the grass.

The male green peafowl approached from behind, tilting his head and stealthily watching the girl, as if considering what method to use to express his feelings.

Then he straightened his head and walked over with elegant steps.

As he walked, his long tail unexpectedly did not touch the ground.

Bowing his head, he pecked twice in the grass and quietly walked in front of the female peafowl.

Suddenly, he turned around, his large tail whipping out into the air drawing a beautiful arc, and it abruptly stood on end, with his wings neatly tucked at his sides!

His neck swelled up, and delicately arranged golden yellow scales stood firm, resembling a pine cone.

With his body making small, high-frequency movements, the colorful large tail gradually fanned out amid a rustling vibration.

The bright golden sunshine shone on the green peafowl's majestic tail, reflecting dazzling golden light, like wind passing over a ripened field, with enchanting waves of wheat undulating and swaying with grace!

Above, each golden eye, with its elegant and deep colors, had a pupil in the center that was a mesmerizing deep blue.

At the same time, the music also reached its climax, the woman's voice changing from the original calm melancholy to becoming high and stunningly beautiful!

"I sing a gentle tune, tears hot as wine of deep emotion!

Moon invites the boat along, mooring at a heart deep with feeling and loyalty—"

The melodious singing voice, expressing her own infatuation and reluctance, revealed deep pathos, making the listener's heart break and tears fall.

The netizens, listening to the song and watching the green peafowl's display, couldn't help but get goosebumps.

The sense of melancholy and sorrow that had just filled their hearts, and the waves of acidity that had surged up, now all turned into tears, rolling down from the corners of their eyes.

Sniffling, with unsettled emotions in their chests, they felt dissatisfied without speaking their minds!

Through sending barrage comments, they fully vented their emotions, and the comments exploded in an instant!

"Ahhhhh!"

"Holy shit, holy shit, HOLY SHIT!!!!"

"Seeing it display its tail, I actually teared up!"

"I feel like crying! I want to cry without knowing why."

"So beautiful, a total mess of beauty!"

"Now I finally understand why it's called a golden peafowl, its feathers and scales shine like gold!"

"Mom, I'm getting goosebumps!"

"My hands are feeling numb now."

"Elegant and stunning, its beauty is heart-shaking!"

When the male peafowl's splendid tail fully opened, the scales on his slender neck also fell from top to bottom, settling back into a tight arrangement, shimmering with a glittering golden light.

As he moved, the angle of light refraction changed, and the golden eyes shifted to a flawless jade-like emerald green.

"You with your elegant demeanor, I, too, in full bloom of youth.

Why can we not, journey together until hair turns white..."

The soaring singing gradually quieted down again, conveying a sense of helplessness and sadness.

To love so deeply, yet why can't we grow old together?

One can only reminisce in memory, the appearance of a loved one from the past, and this memory, too, will fade with the passing of time, gradually blurring away.

"There are only a little more than 200 green peafowls left in the country now... just thinking about it is sad."

"We must protect them well! Don't let the divine green peafowl become a legend that only exists in poetry."

"I hope one day, when my child sees a beautiful line of poetry like 'a body of gold and emeralds beyond portrayal' and asks why the peacock isn't golden, I can tell him that the peafowl in the poem is our native green peafowl, which was once on the brink of extinction, but thanks to our efforts to protect them, their population has gradually grown strong. I don't want to say that their habitat was all submerged by hydropower stations and they were completely extinct."

"With such a good environment here at the zoo, the peafowl will surely flourish!"

As the climax of the music ended, the green peafowl had just finished displaying its plumage.

Circling around to face the female, it fanned its tail inward as if to envelop her.

Lifting its noble crown feathers, it let out a "ah-oh," as if saying, Look at me, look at me, I am your ideal mate!

However, the female peafowl didn't react much and continued to peck at the ground.

Netizens felt a bit regretful, "So, the courtship wasn't successful?"

Fang Ye laughed, "It's like how men pursue women, whether it's giving gifts or chatting and watching movies, it only increases her fondness a little at a time. To win a girl's heart isn't a matter of one or two days.

The female peafowl won't easily give her heart just because the male has displayed his plumage once or twice; he still has to work hard."

As the female peafowl strutted to the side, the male stood still for a few seconds, but then he straightened his tail again and followed her!

The courtship display of the green peafowl seemed to have attracted other viewers!

"Gah! Gah!"

A flock of brightly colored macaws, led by a few red-and-green macaws, flew down from the lush trees above.

The sunlight cast upon the macaws' feathers, shaded in vibrant reds, yellows, blues, greens, and purples, reflecting a kaleidoscope of colors, as if a rainbow had descended from the sky.

They flew around searching for a good spot.

Some macaws, which had a closer relationship with Fang Ye, flew onto his head and shoulders, while others perched on Lan Li, on nearby treetops, or on the stones by the pond, all watching the peafowl's courtship.

In the middle was the green peafowl, its tail outstretched and glistening under the sunshine!

Jin Martin, perched on Fang Ye's shoulder, flapped its wings, squawking loudly, "Go for it! Go for it!"

It didn't seem sincere, but more like joining in the commotion.

The green peafowl, being watched, seemed a bit confused, and the netizens were even more stunned!

"Whoa! Is this the legendary 'all birds paying homage to the phoenix' scene!"

"That's so cool!"

Truth be told, having so many colorful birds flying around the green peafowl really did create a feeling reminiscent of the legendary scene where all birds pay respect to the phoenix!

Fang Ye couldn't help but chuckle. Turning his head, he scratched Jin Martin's belly with his finger, "Hey, don't just cheer others on, okay? Jinzhi and Jingwen have been spouting cheesy love lines and dishing out PDA every day. When will you and Jingwu make it official?"

Jingwu, perched on Lan Li's shoulder, glanced meaningfully at Jin Martin upon hearing her name paired with his.

Jin Martin feigned ignorance, "What!"

Jin Martin liked the feeling of being free and wasn't ready for a relationship yet. There's still a long bird life ahead. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire

After watching the green peafowl's courtship display, Fang Ye pondered, "Actually, green peafowl once had a wide distribution south of the Yangtze River and are naturally prolific breeders. As long as we protect their habitat, their numbers will keep rising.@@novelbin@@

What's more important is our attitude and awareness as the general public towards animals and nature.

Is everything in nature there for our unrestricted taking? And if there are limits to its use, how should we utilize it, to what extent is appropriate, and where is the line drawn? These are questions that really test our wisdom."

Upon hearing these words, the netizens began to reflect.

Fang Ye smiled and said, "Let's go, let's check out something else."

"Puppy! I want to see the puppy! Puppies are so fun."

"I want to see small lion!"
