Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start
Chapter 253 - 252: Envying Old Xu Every Day!

Chapter 253: Chapter 252: Envying Old Xu Every Day!

Deep in the mountain forest.

Over 100,000 netizens in the live stream followed a Chinese Serow, waiting for it to go and take a dump.

At this moment, the Chinese Serow, while walking forward, nibbled on the grass.

It always felt like something was not quite right.

Why did it feel as if something was watching it?

The Chinese Serow indeed looked peculiar, roughly resembling a donkey at first glance, but with cow horns and a white mane behind its neck, and a face like that of a deer.

Its black and slick appearance was no wonder it was called a mishmash of animals.

Despite its abstract appearance, it was genuinely a second-level protected animal in the nation.

The average person really couldn’t afford to mess with it.

Xu Yang secretly followed it.

He hid behind a tree, cautiously observing the Serow, scared to death of being discovered.

If he startled the Serow and it ran off, then the mission would be incomplete.

He was still waiting for it to go to its exclusive toilet.

Just then, the Serow seemed to sense something and turned its head abruptly.

Xu Yang reacted very quickly and instantly ducked down.

The Serow turned back to look at the empty woods, a trace of confusion in its eyes.

How come there’s nothing there?

Could it be that my forest intuition, honed over so many years, has failed me today?

The netizens in the live stream burst into laughter.

[Old Xu, you’re so professional!]

[Hahahaha, stalking a Serow? I suggest calling the police!]

[This reminds me of a mission from a certain two-dimensional game, where you have to follow something while avoiding detection!]

[Old Xu, you’re like a shadow assassin!]

[A big streamer with millions of followers, and you’re sneaking around like this?]

The bullet comments continuously flowed.

Xu Yang responded softly:

"It’s only because everyone wanted to see where the Serow’s dung site was that I followed."

"Given the speed it’s eating, it should be about time."

Xu Yang waited a little while longer before poking his head out again.

Seeing the Serow continue forward, he stealthily followed.

The forest was dense with vegetation, and Xu Yang deliberately used the trees to conceal himself, making it not so easy for the Serow to spot him.

In this manner, the Serow led the way, Xu Yang followed behind, and the netizens watched from behind.

Everyone was waiting for one thing.

Many times, people are just bored.

Yet, they found this particular matter extremely interesting.

Soon, the Serow finally had its fill and it was time for its daily defecation.

It leisurely headed towards its manure field.

The Serow’s habits were quite unique; they always relieved themselves in a fixed spot, as if collecting it.

Maybe they enjoyed that feeling.

"It’s done eating, looks like it’s going to head over now."

"Let’s see where it goes."

Xu Yang continued to trail it.

The netizens in the live stream were excited as well.

Everyone followed the trail, and before long, they saw the Serow walk down a hillside to an area below a cliff.

There was a clearing surrounded by rocks, looking like a stone house with no roof.

The Serow entered it, beginning to enjoy its happiest moment.

"That’s the spot, I told you so."

"They’re actually quite particular, even finding themselves a toilet."

Xu Yang saw the Serow’s destination and spoke with a laugh.

The netizens in the live stream all laughed as well.

[There really is one, the animal looks so strange but turns out to be pretty hygienic!]

[It’s absurd that an animal does something like this!]

[Hahahaha, what am I even watching in Old Xu’s livestream?]

[Wait, animals have their own toilets? And they actually use them?]

Today’s live stream was exceptionally lively.

Xu Yang only watched for a while and didn’t linger for too long.

After all, it’s kind of inappropriate to watch such things.

The toilet was found, mission successfully completed.

Xu Yang’s farm could now get a new septic tank.

It was getting late, almost five o’clock.

If he left now, it would be past eight before he got out.

Luckily, it didn’t get dark too early, so if he hurried, he could still make it out.

"I just came in today to enjoy the scenery of Qinling. It’s really nice."

"I should head back now, or it will get dark."

"Tomorrow, I need to go to the Panda Base; they invited me over, and then I’ll return to Changbai Mountain."

"I’ll live stream for you all another time when I’m free."

As he said this, Xu Yang began to walk back.

The live stream was still bustling with activity.

Halfway back, Xu Yang turned off the live stream.

No one knew which area he was broadcasting from.

The mountain woods were so vast, and with such a high degree of repetitiveness, it was nearly impossible to find the same spot.

He always did it this way, and everyone was used to it.

Today’s gains were indeed not bad; the Treasure Compass truly was a fine thing.

Having completed two tasks in the mountain, Xu Yang felt an indescribable sense of relaxation.

The scenery in the mountains is better after all.

As he walked all the way out, it was already evening. He called a car, waited for more than an hour to return to the city, Xu Yang had some food, and went to sleep early.

The next day, Xu Yang came to the Panda Breeding Center again.

He was invited over.

The incident from the day before yesterday had drawn some heat, and officials wanted to take this opportunity to promote it further, to add fuel to the fire.

On the internet, as long as more people see it, that’s traffic, and that’s money.

Xu Yang was happy about this.

He made his way to the Giant Panda Pavilion.

Wang Min, the staff member responsible for live streaming and filming, was following him with a camera.

Xu Yang was invited to the site today to see the Giant Panda cubs. With the influx of traffic, there would be many event invitations, things ordinary people wouldn’t have access to—this was normal.

He put on a blue disposable protective suit and disinfected his hands before entering the pavilion.

After such preparations, he could touch the Giant Panda cubs.

As soon as Xu Yang appeared, a few bold Giant Panda cubs immediately ran towards him.

They acted as if they were familiar with him, with two cubs immediately hugging Xu Yang’s legs, one on each side.

The staff members hurriedly tried to pry them off Xu Yang’s legs.

But the panda cubs held on tightly; it took a lot of effort to release one arm, and the cub immediately clung on again.

Xu Yang found it quite interesting. He did not move at all and just stood there.

Wang Min was recording at the side.

The Giant Panda feeders all thought it was unusual.

"These little ones are quite mischievous and never get close to strangers. Why do they seem so affectionate towards him?"

"Is everything said online true?"

No, he really does attract the pandas!"

The feeders discussed among themselves.

Several panda cubs ran to Xu Yang’s feet, and he reached out to touch them.

Each panda felt like a soft and cuddly rice ball to the touch.

These little fellows really were adorable. Such unique animals were rare in nature; no wonder they were considered national treasures.

"Xu Yang, they really do like you. What’s going on here?"

The person in charge who invited him, Liu Peng, asked in amazement after seeing this scene.

Xu Yang waved his hand and said,

"I’m not sure about that."

The interaction with the Giant Pandas was particularly interesting.

The protection center shot some videos, allowing Xu Yang to interact closely with the Giant Pandas.

His trip to Sichuan and Chongqing had been very rewarding.

After visiting the Panda Base, Xu Yang returned to his own farm the next day.

The base’s official account posted a video of Xu Yang interacting with the pandas.

The fact that pandas naturally liked Xu Yang was officially confirmed.

After seeing the video, netizens commented:

"I said his physique is special, it’s really true!"

"I suggest hiring him and letting him be a Giant Panda feeder!"

"I envy Old Xu every day, to be able to interact with so many pandas at close range!"

"Old Xu is also on fire; he can actually participate in activities with the Giant Pandas!"

The internet was still buzzing with excitement.

Xu Yang didn’t pay too much attention to these matters, as he had already returned to the farm to enjoy the slow-paced rural life.

While his pace was slow, the employees’ pace was not; they were busy working on the farm every day, and time flew by fast.

Xu Yang was playing with Little Ha in the courtyard. He found that this Husky liked to chew on wood, having awakened its talent for destruction from a young age.

Thankfully, he didn’t have any expensive wooden furniture.

Seeing it chew so vigorously, Xu Yang directly bought twenty chew sticks for it online.

Generally, buying one chew stick for a pet dog is enough, but Xu Yang bought twenty at once.

He placed all the chew sticks in front of Little Ha and said,

"Come on, you like to destroy, right? Chew all of these sticks for me."

Hearing his words, Little Ha seemed a bit embarrassed, licked its lips, and smiled ingratiatingly.

Its expression seemed to say,

"Buddy, I was just playing around, don’t make a fuss!"

In front of it, those chew sticks were enough for a lifetime.

Xu Yang smiled at its reaction, then picked up one and let it run off to play with it.

Little Black and Yuanbao naturally got one each as well.

Lately, Xu Yang had limited the time Little Black and Yuanbao could go out to play.

They couldn’t go out in the wild every day.

It was dangerous and not good for their growth.

The Maquan breed is obedient; after a few times, it didn’t go out much, but preferred to roam around the farm.

Little Black still liked to run out. Several times it came back late, and upon seeing Xu Yang, it looked guilty. Xu Yang would pretend to hit it on the bottom, and it would scamper off with its tail between its legs.

The little fellows on the farm were quite amusing.

In this time, the Sika Deer had also grown up, wandering around the farm every day. It now looked particularly beautiful, with a nice body shape, exuding a lively spirit.

The farm could really be considered a place with good Feng Shui.

These days, the Black Kite also frequented the place. The employees had grown accustomed to this raptor’s appearance, but they still watched it attentively whenever it showed up.

"A descending Eagle, this is the first time I’ve seen one in so many years,"

Li Shan, gaping at the Black Kite, marveled in astonishment.

"The animals that we rarely see, the Farmer touches them directly."

"He brought all these animals back."

"Just like with the Giant Pandas, these animals are naturally drawn to him."

"Truly amazing."

Wang Wu also expressed his awe at the side.
