Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness - Chapter 189: 186 Capture

Chapter 189: Chapter 186 Capture

In the square, a man passing by the newspaper kiosk suddenly stopped, pulled a newspaper from the stand, and took out his wallet.

“Boss, one copy of Global Times.”

The newspaper vendor, who was chatting with the owner of the fruit stand next door, heard him and came over, “Alright, Global Times, two yuan, thank you.”

“The price went up again?” The man was taken aback, put the coins he was holding back into his wallet, and took out a two-yuan note, “It used to be one and a half.”

“Yes, prices have gone up around here. From Monday to Saturday, it’s gone from one and a half to two yuan, and the Sunday edition from four to five yuan. In other places, it’s even more expensive, costing six yuan.” The vendor took the banknote, examined it against the sunlight to verify its authenticity, and happily pocketed it, “Two US dollars is really rare.”

Ben didn’t leave right away but browsed the newspaper headlines at the stand and started chatting with the vendor, “I haven’t read the newspaper in a long time. Anything interesting in the news recently?”

“Of course, there’s something today. When I got the newspaper, I thought the Global Times had started peddling fake news, too, but then I saw the photo and realized it was true. Someone used a glider to migrate geese across more than three thousand kilometers!”

The vendor pointed to the newspaper in Ben’s hand, its colorful cover striking, “It’s a Huaxia person, unbelievable! I’ve never seen such a beautiful photo.”

Ben looked curiously at the photo and the next second, he stood there, stunned.

Passersby who heard this conversation also picked up a newspaper and were similarly shocked, covering their mouths.

“My God.”

In the photo, a black hole and the sun were equally high; inside the cloud hole, there was no light, just the deepest, darkest black, like a gap in the sky with all light flowing out from it. Occasionally, a purple lightning bolt illuminated the struggling geese trying to fly out.

Aboard the plane, the man spread his arms toward the geese, the wind lifting his brown robe, and he wore a bone-tooth necklace on his chest, shouting at the geese.

The sun stretched across the sky, a deluge of light pouring down; its fiery, intense light was a dazzling gold and white, with the plane upheld by the clouds, like a little boat from heaven.

Aunt’s entire body tightened up, the dazzling light making her instinctively want to shield her eyes, and then she realized this was just a photo.

“This is too incredible.”

“Right?” Ben, back at home, could empathize as he spread peanut butter on his toast, “My reaction to this photo was exactly like yours. It’s simply a miracle of life, it reminds me of The Wonderful Adventures of Nils! Fairy tales have actually come to life right before our eyes!”

“Good morning, Uncle, Aunt,” Peter said, descending the stairs with heavy dark circles under his eyes.

“Good morning, Peter. Did you not sleep well last night?” Ben noticed Peter’s dark circles.

Seeing Peter looking listless, Aunt got annoyed, “He must have stayed up late again playing on the computer. I really regret agreeing to his request last time. Look at Étienne, at his age, he’s already able to fly around the world, while you can only stay under the covers playing games all night!”

“I wasn’t playing games!” Peter couldn’t help but retort and immediately noticed the newspaper on the table, picking it up with surprise, “Wow! Master Fang is in the news!”

Ben was curious, “You know him?”

“Of course, he’s so cool! I’ve been staying up these past few nights just to watch his live stream!”

At this moment, Ben seemed to understand why Peter had been sleeping poorly.

Had it been his own childhood, he might have also stayed up late to watch.

He coughed twice and put down his piece of toast, “Um, Peter, could you let me have a look, too?”

Peter trembled with excitement upon hearing this. Did he hear that right?

This was a perfect opportunity to draw someone in!

Peter took out his phone, deftly circumvented the firewall, entered Wolf Fang TV, and Ben leaned over as the two of them started watching the live stream together.

“Ah.”

Aunt sighed.

The same scene was happening in countless homes, with Peter’s house being just the tip of the iceberg. More and more channels began to spread this news, and it was everywhere—the young people had heard the news.

It was a sensation.

Videos on the platform kept being shared, and the original hunting video even surpassed ten million views! Despite such growth, the speed didn’t slow but kept increasing faster and faster!

Unprecedented, never before had a Huaxia host gained such immense traffic on the most famous interactive platform abroad!

Wang Yongbo and Li Yawen were so excited they were trembling!

With this achievement, they successfully convinced the senior management, and the whole overseas live broadcasting plan would be under their full responsibility.

If everything went smoothly, Wolf Fang would achieve a leapfrogging overtaking, surpassing Tiger Fang and Shark, to become the domestic platform with the most users!

At the same time, another unknown video quietly went viral—it was the one filmed by the uncle who gave Bi Fang gasoline!

The comments section under the video was extremely heated.

[Master Fang is the greatest explorer of this century. He should run for President of the United States. Although I’m not sure it’s legal, I think he qualifies just based on this goose migration alone!]

[Is this the lake where Master Fang stayed? It’s so beautiful, and the uncle is a good person, thumbs up for you]

[Why did that bald man want to stop the migration??]

[It’s because the bird flu test failed, so they can’t cross the Schengen Area. However, Elvan, the original leader of the plan, insists the report was wrong.]

[Wait, what’s the Schengen Area? Is that a place?]

[Ah, you can roughly understand it as if you have permission for the Schengen Area, you can move freely through most parts of the European Union.]

Hearing this, more netizens shared their thoughts; they couldn’t believe these adorable geese could be sick birds.

Look at them, so vibrant!

[I hope the report was wrong. Elvan is a professor at the University of Paris; I think he’s quite authoritative. These geese are so spirited, having survived the storm, I’m sure they’re healthy.]

[What happens if they’re caught?]

[They’ll be executed!]

[That’s too sad. I think something must be wrong somewhere. I hope they investigate thoroughly; I don’t want to see these geese come to harm.]

Change was quietly happening, and Bi Fang had yet to realize that this live broadcast was different from any he had done before.

He was becoming known to more and more people at a viral rate, understanding him, it’s just that the number of viewers in the live broadcast room limited his awareness.

The second time he received free gas also gave Bi Fang a vague premonition. Like before, the other party didn’t want deer skin and was overly enthusiastic, going so far as to take a photo with them and even offered them burgers.

Bi Fang declined, but Étienne was delighted. It was the first time in ten days he had tasted food with such rich flavor, nearly moved to tears.

Rousing Étienne from sleep, Bi Fang began to wash up. They were now in Denmark, soon to reach Germany.

A heavy rain had fallen last night, but it didn’t hinder them; as the latitude decreased, the coniferous forests had turned into broadleaf forests, greatly enhancing the waterproofing effect of their leaf-built shelters.

“Maintaining hygiene in the wilderness is very important, especially oral hygiene, and look, a ten-day journey has already started to make my chin grow a beard.”

Bi Fang touched his stubbly chin, planning to shave today.

He pulled out the harpoon, heated it over the fire, cooled it in his canteen afterwards, and began to shave in front of the lake.

Just as Bi Fang had the blade against his face ready to shave, a loud cacophony of goose calls almost made him slice open his own skin.

Étienne stepped forward trying to comfort the geese, but it was of no use.

The geese were frantically calling out, running around chaotically, as if warning the two men of something.

Bi Fang’s expression grew serious; he remembered these geese were only trained to avoid humans, their current extreme reaction…

From the distance in the woods, several figures stealthily approached. When they heard the noise of the geese, realizing they might have been exposed, they charged out.

“Quick, there they are! Catch them!”
