Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start
Chapter 298 - 297 Leopard: Do I not have a face?

Chapter 298: Chapter 297 Leopard: Do I not have a face?

"Don’t catch rabbits anymore, really, no more."

"Little Yuan, it’s nice when you drop by, but please stop bringing rabbits."

"Once or twice is okay, but if you do it often, it’ll definitely be noticed."

"Take it away."

In the farmyard, Xu Yang couldn’t help but chuckle as he watched the Black Kite return.

This raptor really liked catching rabbits for Xu Yang.

Of all the animals Xu Yang raised, it was the only one that reciprocated.

But Xu Yang didn’t need wild rabbits; if he wanted some, he could just buy them at the store.

The Black Kite stood on the ground, curiously looking at Xu Yang, as if asking, "Why don’t you want these fine rabbits?"

The Eagle had no ill intentions, just wanted to bring its owner some rabbits.

But eating too many wild rabbits could lead to reports.

The human world is quite complicated.

"Little Yuan, take the rabbit away; I don’t need it."

"You can eat here if you want."

Xu Yang instructed it.

Just then, the Tabby Cat, Sang Biao, poked its head from behind the wall, cautiously sizing up the Black Kite.

The hunting instincts of felines involve hiding their bodies and observing with their heads out.

This guy had his eye on the Black Kite again.

In terms of combat power, the Black Kite was certainly not inferior, especially when flying.

But on the ground, it was a sitting duck; if the Tabby Cat attacked from behind, the Black Kite really couldn’t escape.

Xu Yang immediately noticed the sneaky Tabby Cat.

"Sang Biao, what are you looking at?"

"Always thinking about fighting."

Xu Yang shouted at the Tabby Cat.

Hearing Xu Yang’s words, the Tabby Cat’s expression shifted from wary to calm; it licked its lips and jumped down from the wall to wander elsewhere.

There were many animals on the farm, and everyone had their lives to live.

These days, Xu Yang had been busy with leasing the mountain fields, and without realizing it, the Treasure Compass counts had accumulated again.

Xu Yang didn’t want to travel too far, but he had visited all accessible areas of Changbai Mountain. Other places were either protected areas, near mountain villages, or belonged to North Korea, with nothing worth exploring.

So, Xu Yang’s gaze fell on the northern Da Xing’an Mountain.

The Northeast Forest Region is the biggest forest area in the country, with 50% of the country’s timber coming from this region, which includes the Changbai Mountain Forest Area, the Xiao Xing’an Mountain Forest Region, and the Da Xing’anling Forest Area.

Currently, Da Xing’anling’s scenery was mainly along the Scenic Highway, less developed.

Following it could lead all the way into the prairie, offering both mountain and prairie landscapes.

Thus, the forests of Da Xing’anling had a larger unpopulated area and more wildlife.

Large herbivores like Reindeer, Elk, and Moose, as well as swans, Red-crowned Cranes, and other birds, and even wild boars, black grouse, snowshoe hares, and pheasants were plentiful.

Going deep into Da Xing’anling would definitely be interesting.

Although all located in the Northeast, it’s a vast area. Yanji was on the east side, quite far from Da Xing’anling, requiring a half day’s drive.

Xu Yang was packing up, and the employees, knowing he was leaving, were very curious.

"Where is the Farm Director going this time?"

"He didn’t say, but I guess not far since he’s been quite busy lately."

At this moment, Wang Wu asked Ma Wen, "Old Ma, you’re driving for the boss, don’t you know where he’s heading?"

Hearing this, Ma Wen responded,

"How would I know where to go, the leader hasn’t told me yet, you’ll find out soon."

While everyone was discussing, Xu Yang came out and called everyone to gather.

"I’m heading to Da Xing’anling, might take two or three days. Keep an eye on things here at the farm."

"Call me if there’s any issue."

"Make sure to feed the animals, and if the Leopard shows up, just tell it I’m not here; it can understand."

Xu Yang instructed.

The employees knew about Xiao Hua.

Sometimes Xiao Hua would jump into the farm to look for Xu Yang.

Seeing such a large Leopard appear, the employees weren’t scared; they’d just shout:

"Xiao Hua, the Farm Director isn’t here, he’s gone out."

Every time it heard this, Xiao Hua understood what it meant and would jump out of the farm and run away.

Sometimes accompanied by its whole family of four.

Luna walking beside Xiao Hua, would ask with her eyes:

"Where’s your boss? Not around?"

Xiao Hua responded with a look:

"Not here, we better look after the kids ourselves, let’s wait for his return."

Initially, the employees were amazed, this Leopard actually understood human speech.

Gradually, they got used to it, and it didn’t seem so strange.

After all, the animals Xu Yang raised were a bit unusual.

The employees, hearing Xu Yang was heading to Da Xing’anling, all responded:

"Director, don’t worry, everything’s under control here!"

"Bear and wolves are plentiful in Da Xing’anling, still, be careful."

"The farm’s in our hands."

Xu Yang nodded.

He had been with these employees for a long time and trusted them.

"Alright, call me if there’s anything."

Xu Yang waved his hand and called Ma Wen to drive him to Da Xing’anling.

The very night in a city hotel, Xu Yang stayed for a night and early the next day, he drove into Da Xing’anling Scenic Way and, by the edge of a forest, Xu Yang left the car and just like that, with his backpack, entered into the primordial forest.

It was another day of deep mountain live streaming.

The live stream started soon.

Xu Yang was very popular at the moment.

His video clips were all over the internet.

So as soon as the live stream started, netizens immediately flooded into the streaming room.

All they could see was lush greenery as Xu Yang appeared deep in the mountains.

But, as always, no one knew exactly where Xu Yang was.

[Old Xu, where have you popped up this time?]

[Good morning, Brother Yang!]

[Every time he starts a stream, there’s a big event!]

[The more I watch, the more addicted I get!]

The chat in the live stream was bustling.

This time, Xu Yang didn’t intentionally hide his location but candidly said:

"Right now, I am deep in Da Xing’anling, the Da Xing’anling Forest Area is very large, with a lot of wildlife."

"There are dangers all around here."

"Today, I came here wanting to see the reindeer herds."

"The north is colder, and there are more reindeer, and further north, there’s the only Reindeer Tribe in the country, the Ewenki Tribe."

"These reindeer are quite a sight too."

Hearing what Xu Yang said, everyone knew he was in Da Xing’anling.

Watching the live stream now allowed for a better appreciation of Da Xing’anling’s scenery.

Da Xing’anling had a lot of animals, Xu Yang saw traces of a fox hit by a car on Scenic Way earlier, and after getting out of the car, he put on gloves and moved the fox from the road to the nearby forest, hoping for better luck in its next life.

Many people have also shared videos of encountering wildlife on the scenic way.

At this moment, several wild chickens noticed Xu Yang and, panicking, hurriedly flew away.

Watching them disappear into the distance, a smile appeared on Xu Yang’s face.

"There indeed seems to be more wildlife deep in the mountains here, just walking inside makes one feel the vitality of these woods."

"But one must be more cautious entering the mountains."

"The dangers in Da Xing’anling mainly come from two sources, first is the brown bears, especially those with cubs."

"The second is the wolf packs, which primarily feed on roe deer and elk, so there are a lot of them."

"As for black bears, lynxes, and leopards, I think they’re more manageable and not as frightening."

"Of course, encountering a Northeast Tiger would definitely be scary, but the chances of encountering one are so low that it’s not worth worrying about."

Xu Yang breathed in the mountain air, his expression relaxed, but his words not so much.

[Brown bears, wolf packs? Knowing there are such dangers in the deep mountains and still going?]

[Isn’t this why he’s said to be the most daring live streamer on the net!]

[Is being a top streamer that easy?]

[He’s really skilled, ordinary people please don’t try this!]

[Hasn’t someone explained before that he’s a cultivator of the mountains, and all this is part of his training!]

The number of netizens in the live stream room was increasing, with various comments popping up.

Xu Yang didn’t mind.

The forest was lively; walking a bit further, he could see traces of elk activities.

Xu Yang’s intention was to interfere as little as possible with the lives of the animals.

If an animal approached him, he would touch it if he could, feed it if possible.

If they didn’t approach him, then leave it be.

If he encountered a fierce beast, he would run if necessary.

He continued deeper.

The netizens didn’t know where Xu Yang was, and even Xu Yang himself wasn’t sure, only being able to confirm a rough coordinate by looking at the map.

After all, he was deep in the mountains.

After walking a bit further, right at that moment, a leopard suddenly sprung out from the bushes ahead.

The leopard, upon seeing Xu Yang, clearly hesitated for a moment, then bared its fangs and took on a threatening pose.

Seeing the leopard, joy surfaced on Xu Yang’s face.

"Ah, there’s a leopard here, what a coincidence."

Then, Xu Yang shouted towards the leopard:

"Don’t be nervous, I mean no harm, leopards like you, I’ve met five."

Seeing Xu Yang’s calm and gentle demeanor seemingly confused the leopard.

It looked at Xu Yang a few more times, thinking this two-legged beast might be problematic, then the leopard turned and trotted away.

This two-legged beast is sketchy.

Better to stay far away from him.

Xu Yang, seeing the leopard run away, felt it was a pity, "It ran away, leopards are really rare in these woods now."

"To see one here, also shows how good the ecology is."

Afterwards, he continued deeper.

Every time the netizens saw such a scene, they were all dumbfounded.

He really isn’t scared!

Many people were startled at the first sight of the leopard.

[Old Xu, you are really bold!]

[The leopard roared at you, you could at least act a bit scared, how come you had no reaction at all!]

[Leopard: Don’t I have any dignity?]

[Hahaha, Old Xu is still as tough as ever!]
