Mountain Looting: Targeted by a Leopard at the Start
Chapter 402 - 400: Mountain Rushing in Northern Myanmar, Targeted by the Industrial Park?

Chapter 402: Chapter 400: Mountain Rushing in Northern Myanmar, Targeted by the Industrial Park?

Walking further upwards, I entered the plateau where the terrain opened up and vegetation grew sparse.

This mountain range stood like a towering South Heavenly Gate, separating Huaxia and foreign lands.

Huaxia was situated right above South Heavenly Gate, with India and Nepal below.

That’s why the altitude here was quite high.

The animals on the plateau always looked somewhat exotic.

For instance, Xu Yang saw a herd of Himalayan Blue Sheep, their fur overall a gray-blue hue, with horns twisted into spirals.

Seeing such animals, netizens were also thrilled.

The blue sheep were relatively gentle by nature. They were quite vigilant and had excellent eyesight,quick to flee at any hint of danger.

With a backpack on his shoulders, Xu Yang strolled leisurely through the wild highlands, an indescribably dashing figure.

Besides the blue sheep, he also encountered Himalayan Big Horned Sheep.

These sheep, robust and majestic, were top-tier herbivores. Each one held its head high and chest out, exuding an air of dominance.

The audience saw such sheep for the first time, and the live streaming room once again became lively.

He encountered other rare animals as well, such as mountain hares and snow partridges. Xu Yang came across them too.

This trip to the Himalayas could be considered a complete success.

After spending three days on the plateau, Xu Yang planned to return.

Not to the farm, but to rest for a while and then use the "Antique Treasure Map" rewarded by the System.

The location marked by the treasure map was a desolate mountain, but it was very far away, in Northern Myanmar.

Xu Yang didn’t have a good impression of the place, as it was notorious for telecom scams.

Those who were caught, if lucky, merely received a beating. If not, they might have limbs severed, or even be killed and buried alive.

Very few managed to escape.

Although Xu Yang was skilled, he preferred not to venture into such places, especially since the other side had guns.

"The location is a bit remote, going there alone could be dangerous,"

"But as long as I keep a low profile, there shouldn’t be any problem,"

Xu Yang thought to himself.

After all, it was his first time getting a treasure map, and he was eager to explore it.

With Xu Yang’s current skills, including combat expertise, physical fitness, and jungle combat techniques,

unless it was a flat-out gunfight, he wasn’t afraid.

So, Xu Yang ended the Himalayas live stream and prepared to see what treasures the treasure map might uncover.

He could also do a treasure hunting task on the local mountains while he was there, perhaps find some treasure.

Since he was already here.

The Himalayas live stream was also quite lively, rare animals kept the viewers’ enthusiasm high.

But everyone still preferred to watch adventures and risks, the more dangerous, the larger the audience.

This also conformed to the market’s rules.

After returning, Xu Yang rested for a few days in Shanghai.

The farm was doing well, with the little animals living quite well.

Then, Xu Yang decided to venture to Northern Myanmar on his own.

"The treasure map shows that the treasure is located on a mountain in Northern Myanmar,"

"Given the chaos there, it’s reasonable for someone to hide cultural relics in the mountains,"

"They might be smugglers, or perhaps high-level officials of the parks,"

"Or they could be long lost."

"Regardless, finding them is better than leaving them misplaced,"

Xu Yang mused to himself.

He was beginning to enjoy this kind of adventure.

Thus, Xu Yang secured his visa and flew toward Northern Myanmar.

Tourism had decreased significantly there, but it still looked bustling.

Upon arrival in Northern Myanmar, Xu Yang’s first impression was that it seemed rather worn-out.

It felt like a small town from the nineties.

Vehicles came and went, with many people bustling about.

Xu Yang settled in the best hotel he could find and planned to embark on his adventure the next day.

Xu Yang wasn’t aware that the local roads were riddled with pitfalls.

Some had taken notice of him early on.

The reason was simple: Xu Yang was now a top broadcaster, with substantial fame overseas and his videos everywhere.

It was certain that people in Northern Myanmar knew of him.

An influencer like him with high value was certainly not overlooked.

News traveled fast.

The people around these parts were lawless; they had abducted business tycoons before, one who was lucky enough to escape and flee back home.

But even that person ended up extorted for a large sum of money.

To them, individuals like Xu Yang were quite valuable.

Thus, a "manager" of a park thought Xu Yang was a golden goose.

If exploited properly, squeezing out tens of millions was not impossible.

Therefore, he immediately arranged for people to watch Xu Yang and gather information about him, even preparing for a potential abduction.

At this time, they had yet to realize the danger Xu Yang posed.

As long as it wasn’t a firefight, Xu Yang was invincible.

The park manager, named Huang Ze, had blood on his hands and was ruthless in his dealings.

In fact, compared to the well-governed areas in their country, dark places abounded overseas.

Xu Yang set out to explore these parts of the world, often venturing into secluded areas, so it was normal to encounter such situations.

Frequent adventures were bound to lead to "ghosts."

Xu Yang wasn’t completely unprepared; upon entering the hotel, he remained vigilant.

He first scoped out the hotel’s surroundings and even planned an evacuation route from the hotel if necessary.

The balconies extended outward, allowing him to climb up to the rooftop, then leap to another rooftop to make his escape.

"Tomorrow I’ll go to the mountains to search for treasures. Once found, I’ll leave,"

"I can’t stay too long in this place. You never know who might have their eyes on you,"

"Danger Perception skill can only gauge the risk from wild beasts, not the malice of humans,"

"It’s best to be cautious in all things."

Xu Yang pondered in his heart.

Fortunately, the night was uneventful.

The next day.

Xu Yang took a car to the outskirts early in the morning, and then he took his backpack and went straight into the mountains.

This scene was closely followed by an informant.

The news quickly reached the ears of Huang Ze in the park.

"He went into the mountains alone?"

"What’s the difference between that and giving himself up?"

"Get Ahua over here, take a few people, and grab him!"

Huang Ze was ecstatic.

In Huang Ze’s eyes, there was no difference between people and animals.

After capturing someone, if they tried to escape, they would get an electric shock first, then break their legs, or even directly sell their organs and then bury them.

So, shortly after Xu Yang entered the mountains, a group of eight or nine men from the park, each holding a baseball bat, began to fumble their way up the mountain.

They didn’t bring guns; the park didn’t have that many guns, to begin with, and they usually didn’t carry them as they would be too conspicuous when out and about.

Eight or nine muscleheads were enough; if an ordinary person were caught, they wouldn’t stand a chance of escaping.

Xu Yang had not yet realized he was being followed.

At this moment, Xu Yang was following the instructions of the treasure map, seeking the lost artifacts.

The treasure map provided a clear direction—all he had to do was follow the instructions without much effort needed.

The exact location was right under a towering tree to the north; all he needed to do was dig.

As Xu Yang walked, he kept looking for that tree.

On he went, deeper inside.

He was moving slowly, occasionally stopping to enjoy the scenery.

But the group of park muscleheads behind him was moving fast, each with a baseball bat, quickly tracking Xu Yang’s trail.

Soon, they found Xu Yang.

At that time, Xu Yang also heard the noise from behind.

He turned his head and saw eight robust men behind him, most wearing short sleeves, their bodies largely covered with tattoos, looking anything but friendly.

Xu Yang instantly realized that he had run into people from the park!

The next second, he took off running.

"Damn, how did I run into this!"

For the first time, Xu Yang felt a sense of crisis.

He wasn’t afraid of people; he was afraid of guns.

In that moment, Xu Yang was like a fierce beast in the forest, with the park muscleheads resembling hunters.

Realizing Xu Yang was trying to escape, they immediately began to sprint after him.

A heart-stopping chase erupted in the woods.

It was a scene not being live-streamed, or the netizens would have been stunned.

The scene with Xu Yang not live-streaming was even more thrilling than the broadcast.

More terrifying than animals are humans.

Engage in Mountain Rushing long enough, and you’re bound to encounter all sorts of outrageous crises.

Xu Yang’s speed was extremely fast, and during the chase, he decisively dropped his backpack.

There was nothing important in the bag; his phone and documents were hidden inside his clothes—the bag mainly contained items like shovels, food, rope, and flashlights.

There was no signal in the mountains, so these men didn’t have a way to communicate with each other.

"Surround him, flank him!"

The leader immediately commanded.

At this time, both sides had misunderstandings about each other’s capabilities.

What Xu Yang worried about were guns, but that was just an over-exposure to TV—in general, guns were scarce, found only inside the park.

After all, outside, guns were useless, and these men wouldn’t dare to shoot openly.

The park’s men began to encircle Xu Yang.

There were always tough spots on mountain paths, surely requiring a detour, and in doing so, it gave others the chance to get closer.

"I’ve got to fight with all I’ve got. Can’t hold back."

Xu Yang’s gaze turned icy, and his fists clenched tightly.

This was the greatest crisis he had faced since he began Mountain Rushing, even more dangerous than his encounter with Hu Niu.

The park muscleheads were each formidable, as those who weren’t tough enough were currently sitting in the park conducting scams. Those who could be muscleheads were not pushovers.

He continued to dash through the mountains.

The leader, Ahua, was already cursing in his mind.

Damn it, he had never seen anyone run like this.

Such incredible physical condition!

They needed to catch him fast, as being spotted by someone else would be troublesome.

Now, with the pressure mounting, capturing the target would mean no issues, but failure to do so would be dangerous.

As he ran, Xu Yang looked back to judge whether these men had guns.

With his speed, shaking them off would be easy.

But by this time, he was also getting angry.

Once he realized no one had guns, Xu Yang’s courage grew.

He reached a dense part of the forest and slowed down.

Two men, who were particularly fast, came close to surrounding him.

Speaking fluent Chinese, they cursed:

"You think you can run from us, keep running!"

As they spoke, they were about to swing their baseball bats at Xu Yang’s head.

Xu Yang, fierce with resolve, took a defensive stance and landed a heavy punch on one of the men’s faces.

Xu Yang knew how to fight.

And not just any fighting technique, but one ranked in the top ten in the world.

Coupled with his enhanced physical condition, one punch felt like running face-first into a wall, and the next second, everything went black for the musclehead as he fell to the ground, unconscious.

Youth is a blessing; he was out like a light.

The other musclehead attempted to grab Xu Yang to constrain him, but in the next second, Xu Yang, with extreme speed, punched him too.

A direct hit to the face.

This guy followed suit, collapsing on the ground, knocked out.

The rest of the muscleheads paused, stunned by the scene.
