Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start
Chapter 299 - 298: Xu Yang’s Exceptional Judgement, Admired by Netizens!

Chapter 299: Chapter 298: Xu Yang’s Exceptional Judgement, Admired by Netizens!

Da Xing’an Mountain is indeed abundant with wildlife.

From time to time, small creatures would run far from the forest area.

Xu Yang took great interest in admiring the beautiful mountain scenery and occasionally commented to his online friends about what animals he encountered.

Just then, a crow’s cawing was heard.

Xu Yang immediately looked into the distance.

His eyesight was very good, and he spotted the black crows flying in the sky at a glance.

"They’re ravens, the ravens are calling!"

"Everyone knows that birds like crows are quite intelligent."

"Ravens wouldn’t call for no reason, I guess they’re signaling something."

"With my understanding of the mountain, I can guess a rough idea."

Xu Yang looked up at the sky and said to everyone.

In the deep mountains, Xu Yang was full of mystery.

The audience felt like he knew everything.

Everyone grew more and more curious.

"Old Xu, just tell us, why are the ravens calling?"

"I know, it’s Uchiha Itachi releasing Heavenly Light!"

"I remember this happened before because they encountered snakes, right?"

"Are they warning their kind of danger?"

It must be said, everyone’s guesses were quite reasonable.

But they were still far from the correct answer.

Xu Yang glanced at the live chat on his phone, saw everyone’s responses, and explained with a smile:

"Everyone’s guesses are well-founded, but that’s not how ravens call when they are in danger."

"Listen carefully, the raven’s call has no panic, no strong emotional fluctuations, just a very steady squawk, seemingly using their voices to hint something to some animal."

Ah?

The audience was baffled.

No panic in a raven’s call?

Aren’t they just screaming? Who knows if there’s panic.

How can you hear the difference.

The chatroom was full of question marks, and everyone sent messages saying they could not discern anything special in the raven’s call.

Xu Yang unveiled his guess:

"I’m also making a rough estimate, it might not be right."

"If my guess is correct, the raven is likely leading a wolf weasel to a dead wild animal."

"This situation is more common in winter, some animals freeze to death in the snow, buried by it."

"After the ravens discover the animal carcass, they want to eat the flesh but can’t bite through the frozen stiff carcass."

"So, they find a wolf weasel to inform it where the food is."

"Wolf weasels are very fierce members of the weasel family, also the largest, very gluttonous, and eat quite crudely."

"They can easily tear open the animal’s carcass, allowing the ravens to get a share as well."

"That sound from the raven just now seemed like a hint to the wolf weasel that there’s meat."

"I think I might see a wolf weasel if I follow them."

Xu Yang shared a story of the forest with everyone.

The audience was once again captivated.

There’s actually such a notion.

"Really? Ravens leading wolf weasels, how magical is that?"

"These guys are too smart!"

"What is a wolf weasel, it sounds scary!"

"Quickly go see if it’s true, Old Xu you’re not just telling us a story!"

Everyone urged Xu Yang to hurry over.

Xu Yang also wanted to see for himself, so he followed the sound of the raven’s calls, speeding up his pace of Mountain Rushing.

Everything in the forest was magical.

This was a live broadcast version of the animal world.

The scene was extraordinarily captivating.

Indeed, as Xu Yang said, the raven would fly for a while, then switch to another place, like it was signaling.

What the raven didn’t know was, its signaling not only attracted the wolf weasel but Xu Yang as well.

Soon, the raven’s calling stopped.

Xu Yang saw its position and carefully approached it.

With his extensive experience in the mountains, Xu Yang quickly arrived at the place where the raven signaled.

A drone followed him, capturing the scene ahead.

Everyone grew even more curious.

Whether what Xu Yang said was true or false.

When the camera captured the scene ahead, everyone finally saw it clearly.

At that moment, an elk lay on the ground on its side, its body already somewhat shrunken, and surrounded by a few flies, indicating it had been dead for several days.

And at the side of the elk, a small brown beast was vigorously tearing at the elk’s carcass.

Its actions were forceful, each bite and tear could rip off a chunk of flesh.

The cruel vibe of nature hit everyone face on.

The audience felt the primitiveness and wildness of nature.

That small beast was the wolf weasel that Xu Yang mentioned.

The wolf weasel looked a bit like a miniaturized brown bear, lying on the ground with relatively long paws.

It was closely related to Brother Ping, a fierce member of the large weasel family, its fur was brown-gray, more suited to the forest attributes.

In the Weasel family, the fiercest are the badgers, honey badgers, and wolf weasels, all known for their particularly fierce nature.

While creatures like Water Otter Sea Otter, Purple Mink Snow Mink, and Weasel

are comparatively cuter and more dexterous.

The audience was instantly flabbergasted.

"What is that animal, it looks terrifying!"

"It looks like a mini bear but seems more agile!"

"Wow, this guy is fierce!"

"Send my roommate over to cheer it up!"

"The animals in the forest are so scary, so wild!"

There were many viewers in the live broadcast room, and everyone had been exposed to different things since childhood.

Scenes like this real hunting were always a bit unsettling.

The raven had already landed on the ground, watching not far from the wolf weasel.

The wolf weasel ate quickly and wastefully, which was just right for the ravens to clean up afterwards.

That’s why they worked so well together.

Xu Yang, seeing the scene from a distance, said with a smile,

"It really is a badger, I guessed right after all."

"The sound of that raven was unusual, as if it were in a hurry to report."

"The raven is hungry too."

Xu Yang’s voice came out from the live broadcast room.

The viewers increasingly admired Xu Yang.

"Old Xu got it right again!"

"So fierce, I still don’t know how he figured it out!"

"In this regard, Old Xu is really unbeatable!"

"To be honest, among all the top livestreamers, except those who sell goods, which one doesn’t have some real skill?"

"Other top livestreamers all have competitors, but Old Xu, who livestreams deep in the forest and with wild animals, doesn’t even have a peer, you can imagine how fierce he is!"

Sweeping praise echoed through the comments.

Xu Yang just watched for a while.

Wolf weasels were rare to see, and Changbai Mountain had some, but they were rarely seen.

Da Xing’an Mountain was a bit more to the north, and there were more wolf weasels.

This guy was indeed fierce.

As the big brother of the weasel family, it was also a representative of secondary predators in the forest.

Xu Yang, looking at the wolf weasel, continued,

"Apart from tigers and brown bears who have unique fighting power, the competition among medium-level predators in the forest is quite fierce."

"Specifically, that includes the wolf weasel, lynx, wolf, Mongolian wildcat, and of course, foxes can be counted among them, though foxes don’t directly conflict with them."

"These wild animals fight, compete for territory, or eat each other’s young."

"This is the reality of nature, survival of the fittest."

"The attack power of the wolf weasel is also quite strong."

Though he said this, Xu Yang was not at all afraid of the wolf weasel.

Because the size of the wolf weasel was just that small, even smaller than a wolf.

Moreover, the wolf weasel wasn’t as bellicose as the honey badger, it didn’t provoke larger animals, and if humans chased them, the wolf weasel would turn and run.

These guys were also pretty fast.

The viewers gained experience in the forest.

Xu Yang showed everyone indeed a different scenery.

The wolf weasel, having eaten almost to satisfaction, left contentedly.

This guy was also picky, only eating the tastiest parts.

After the wolf weasel left, a few ravens hopped onto the deer’s corpse, enjoying the remaining dinner.

Xu Yang felt there wasn’t anything worth watching anymore, so he continued strolling in the mountain.

"Da Xing’an Mountain is really nice, I should come here more often if I have time."

"Although it’s a bit far, it’s okay sitting in the car."

"I find it convenient to bring some tools and such."

With time pressing, having gotten in after a long time, he had to quickly get on with the tasks.

Every treasure hunting task in the mountain was something to look forward to.

For someone like Xu Yang, who loved forests and wildlife, this was simply the greatest joy of life.

"Triggered treasure hunting task: Bear Cub Rescue!"

"Task description: A little bear cub has fallen into a ravine and can’t get out, with the mother bear anxiously waiting nearby, please help rescue."

"Task reward: Good Person Card *1, Affinity with Little Bear."

Soon, the task was successfully triggered.

"Rescue the bear cub?"

"The mother bear is also there?"

"I’m actually happy to do that."

Xu Yang thought to himself.

And this time, he was deep in the mountains, and he really needed a Good Person Card.

It could save his life at a critical moment.

"It’s been a long time since I got a Good Person Card, which really is a great treasure."

"Essential for going into the mountains, it’s like having an extra life."

"This task, I definitely have to do it,"

Xu Yang thought to himself.

He looked at the location marked on the map, and as usual in mountain rushing, he headed toward the location of the little bear.

The task of rescuing the little bear wasn’t hard, Xu Yang only had one question in his mind.

That was whether the bear cub was a brown bear’s cub or a black bear’s cub.

If it was a black bear’s cub, then that would be straightforward.

If it was a brown bear’s cub, however, that could be a bit troublesome.

Before long, Xu Yang arrived at the system-designated task area.

He watched the mother brown bear pacing back and forth nearby and thought to himself,

"Brown bear, this is going to be troublesome."

"How to rescue this?"

At this time, the viewers also noticed the brown bear.

Everyone immediately tensed up.

And with the drone rising, they noticed the brown bear seemed to be guarding something.

Then, they saw a pitiful little bear cub in the ravine, standing on the ground, its front paws clinging to the wall, desperately trying to climb up.

Everyone’s heart tightened for a moment.
