Chapter 436: Chapter 434: The Ferocious Brother Ping, Either in a Fight or On the Way to One!

The zebra was pinned down by Xu Yang.

After a couple of struggles, it stopped moving.

When Xu Yang saw it stop struggling, he also let go.

Once released, the zebra fled like a bolt, no longer daring to provoke Xu Yang.

Seeing the zebra run away, the netizens started laughing again.

[This zebra is really brave, daring to chase Old Xu!]

[Hahaha, it behaved after being knocked down!]

[I was wondering why Old Xu was being chased, turns out he couldn’t be bothered with it!]

Xu Yang stood up and patted his clothes, saying nonchalantly:

"Zebras have a rather peculiar way of thinking, I’m not clear on what it wanted to do."

"It’s pretty strong though."

At this point, the system’s alert tone sounded.

[Reward Received: Random Skill: African Grassland Encyclopedia]

[Host masters the habits and weaknesses of African grassland animals and plants.]

[Historical item found: A set of ivory carvings.]

[Received a luxury home theater system.]

The reward for this rare-level skill is quite good.

With the encyclopedia, I can have a better understanding of the African grassland, including many poisonous insects and snakes, and avoid them in advance.

Ivory carvings are strictly controlled, sales are not allowed, let alone production, but as a historical item, it’s fine to keep it.

The home theater can be installed at my house, useful for watching movies on ordinary days.

It’s still quite comfortable receiving rewards.

Starting without knowing how to proceed with the task, taking it step by step, the mission also gradually completed.

There are still a few treasure hunting attempts left; I can do another treasure hunt.

Looking at the thriving scene in front of me, I miss the animals on the farm a bit.

It would be great if I could bring Xiao Hua along.

It’s quite fun to go out with it.

Or Little Wolf, Little Black would be fine as well.

But the journey is too far, and airplanes have strict controls on pets, which could easily lead to accidents.

Xu Yang, looking at the river full of crocodiles, decides to wander for another couple of days before heading back to the farm.

There are indeed many animals here.

Having petted lions and cheetahs, the trip wasn’t in vain; I can always come back later since the Treasure Compass has the function of locating animals.

Xu Yang continues to stroll deeper into the grassland.

If there are fewer animals around, just hop in the car and head off into the distance.

Soon, Xu Yang sees two robust rhinos taking a stroll, one big and one small.

The baby rhino looks quite adorable, also glancing over at Xu Yang.

[Old Xu, can you greet the rhino?]

[Why not ride on its back for a few steps!]

The netizens, who love a good spectacle, shouted one after another.

Xu Yang just calmly watched, not intending to go over at all.

Rhinos pack quite a punch.

On the grassland, only elephants are a match for them.

"A rhino with its calf, not to be messed with, these guys have a fierce temper, sometimes daring to confront elephants."

"Of course, they get taught a harsh lesson."

"There aren’t many animals on the African grassland that are easy to provoke, living in such an environment, those without some ability can’t survive."

Xu Yang, looking at the rhinos, spoke.

The live stream was very exciting.

At this moment, Xu Yang saw that there were many animals around, so he chose to use the Treasure Compass for the last time.

[Trigger Treasure Hunting Task: Fight, Brother Ping!]

[Task Description: A honey badger is currently fighting a porcupine. Please help Brother Ping remove the quills from his body after the fight.]

[Task Reward: Thorn Sword*1, a sharp thorn sword, ideal for piercing through enemies.]

The regular mission was successfully triggered.

"Brother Ping?"

Xu Yang suddenly became interested.

Brother Ping, also known as the honey badger, is indeed a star of the grassland; if not fighting, it’s on its way to a fight, picking fights for no reason when it has nothing else to do.

They have extremely strong antitoxicity, love eating poisonous snakes, treating them like spicy snacks.

Injected with venom, they just sleep it off, waking up refreshed, ready to continue picking fights.

Since they are tough-skinned and hard to kill, and also taste awful, lions, hyenas, and the like have no interest in them.

This only makes the honey badger’s personality more and more wild.

Xu Yang got out of the car and, following the guidance of the Treasure Compass, quickly arrived at the destination.

Looking carefully, a honey badger was engaged in a standoff with a porcupine that was covered with quills.

Porcupines are not easy to mess with either, their quills can cause bleeding with just a few pokes.

The netizens noticed the scene.

They immediately exclaimed in excitement.

[Look over there, animals are battling!]

[Brother Ping fighting against a porcupine!]

[The African grassland is so lively, with lions and hyenas, elephants and rhinos, honey badgers and porcupines, all constantly fighting and competing!]

[Truly an animal kingdom!]

[Who knows how many wild animals are born every day, much more than the cattle and sheep of the grasslands!]

The netizens felt shocked.

Xu Yang, getting closer and observing such a scene, was also somewhat surprised.

Though called a porcupine, it is actually a rodent, but indeed its body is covered with quills.

Animals are afraid of porcupines. Humans generally aren’t, now raising them for their meat.

At this moment, Brother Ping is ripping and thrashing at the porcupine, with punches and kicks.

Brushing against several quills without a care.

Initially, the porcupine was resisting, but after being beaten, it scurried away dispiritedly.

Looking at Brother Ping again, his body pierced with quills, yet still lively and jumping around.

"Wow, so fierce...."

"Brother Ping, I knew he was fierce, unafraid of lions and hyenas, but I didn’t expect this fierce!"

"Almost turned into a porcupine himself, yet still hopping around so lively."

"Doesn’t he need a break?"

Xu Yang looked at Brother Ping, planning to go over and help pull out the quills.

But since Brother Ping doesn’t stop moving, he couldn’t do it just yet.

If he forced his help, Brother Ping might end up scrapping with him...

It’s not that Xu Yang couldn’t win against him; he just didn’t want to provoke him. This critter is stubborn to the core, holding grudges for ages.

What if he gets bitten and picks up some virus, that would be a loss not worth taking.

So, better to keep following along and see what happens.

The netizens watched Brother Ping and found him quite peculiar.

This guy looks pretty interesting.

[So the legends about Brother Ping are true!]

[No way, pierced like that, doesn’t he want to sit down and rest for a while?]

The barrage of comments lit up.

Xu Yang decided to spend the upcoming livestream following Brother Ping.

See what this guy plans to do next.

"This guy is interesting, let’s follow him and see."

Xu Yang followed Brother Ping from behind.

Thanks to the drone, there was no need to follow too closely; Brother Ping was completely unaware that he was being tracked.

The audience in the live broadcast room was even more amused.

Old Xu is on a tailgating mission again!

Brother Ping looked around, here and there.

At that point, he seemed to spot something not far away and immediately staggered off towards it.

Xu Yang was curious about what he had found, and upon close inspection – lo and behold – it was a cobra!

"Holy cow, a cobra!"

"That’s a bit scary!"

"One bite from that, neurotoxin injected, and it’s really game over."

Xu Yang clicked his tongue and remarked.

Hearing him say that, the hearts of the netizens instantly tightened.

The area was all tall grass, with one cobra there could be two, better not get bitten.

Xu Yang looked relaxed as ever, partly because he had an antidote in his system, and also because he had the skill, danger perception, so he wasn’t too worried about snakes.

Only to see Brother Ping, still with quills sticking out of him, rushing up and engaging in a fight with the cobra.

The cobra did not expect this one to be so brave, opening its mouth to inject venom.

The scene was quite thrilling for a moment.

Brother Ping truly lived up to that saying, if he isn’t fighting, he’s on his way to one.

Just way too fierce.

The atmosphere in the livestream was electric.

The netizens watched with growing excitement.

Nature documentaries are quite entertaining to watch.

After the cobra had injected its venom, that was it for tactics – if the prey didn’t die, then the cobra would.

Not long after, the cobra was defeated and promptly killed by Brother Ping.

Then, everyone watched as the cobra, like spicy strips, was bitten off piece by piece by Brother Ping, who ate it vigorously.

Looked like he was enjoying it too.

After a hearty meal, Brother Ping, quills and all, finally settled down for a deep sleep.

Witnessing this scene, the netizens were full of awe.

This animal truly lived up to its reputation of fearlessness.

One would have thought Brother Yang was brave enough, but there was an animal even braver than him.

Truly formidable!

"To be renowned in the African grassland, there must be substance."

As Xu Yang watched Brother Ping sleep, he too expressed his awe.

Later, waiting for Brother Ping to fall asleep, Xu Yang gently approached and pulled the quills out from his body.

Brother Ping slept soundly, mainly because of the toxins in his body.

In fact, he enjoyed these toxins; they were addictive to him.

You could only say that this guy was uniquely talented.

After all, nearly all animal fur is of a protective color, to avoid detection by enemies. Generally, their backs are dark, and their bellies are white.

But Brother Ping was all black, except his back and head were white, as if he didn’t want other animals to miss seeing him.

Protective color?

Only the weak need protective colors.

The strong should keep fighting, all the way till death.
