He hasn’t suffered what he should’ve, hasn’t faced the dangers he should’ve. Don’t tell me those so-called dangers mean nothing to him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Wolf King under Qin Ye’s ass is wailing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Canadian time was already 6 p.m.; darkness had fully settled, and beyond the trees, no stars were visible—the sky remained shrouded in clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, at the main livestream, the remaining forty contestants had all successfully reached PEP, completing their first week of wilderness survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many were exhausted; as night fell, they chatted briefly to the camera and signed off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only fewer than ten viewers remained online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun lounged lazily against the trunk, took a sip of fish soup, and prepared to sign off—he planned to step outside for a precaution, just in case some animal crept up during the night—even though the odds were slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The first week went smoothly; I didn’t encounter any real danger...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The livestream audience immediately flooded the comments with complaints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, anyone else in his situation probably wouldn’t have lasted two days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, this is called no danger?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“666, for Qin Ye, this is basic stuff.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Ye doesn’t just survive—he entertains. The production team got lucky landing him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun, of course, couldn’t see the comments; he continued: “I think the first week was just meant for us to adapt. Starting next week, it’ll definitely get harder...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He droned on for a while, then suddenly fell silent as his ears twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Crack—!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of snapping branches—not a single break, but a continuous rhythm of movement approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression shifted, turning serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, Qin Ye’s running into something again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Another creature coming to get itself killed?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did Qin Ye hear?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun whispered: “I just heard branches breaking—something’s slowly approaching my camp.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He placed the drone atop a birch log, then swiftly climbed a nearby tree with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the sound grew louder, and within minutes, some viewers in the livestream also heard it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On TikTok, viewers held their breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“OMG, Qin’s so unlucky—what animal is it? A snake? A rabbit?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Snakes hibernate—how could one be out in winter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grouse are possible, or maybe Arctic foxes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be a bear?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, bears hibernate too—any awake now must be an unlucky bear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time passed, Qin Yun’s action camera pointed toward the source of the noise. The sound drew closer, and after roughly ten minutes, a small, dark shape burst into his camp, entering the firelight’s glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the camera captured the full view of the intruder, everyone—domestic and international viewers alike—were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit, a black bear?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, it really is a bear?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jesus, it’s a cub—wow, so cute.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This cub’s got bad luck, born in winter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If there’s a cub, there’s a mother—what if Qin Ye kills this one and draws the mother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Ye isn’t cold-blooded or violent—he wouldn’t just kill such a harmless little cub.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Qin Yun saw the cub, he was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By its size, it’s a three-month-old black bear cub—it should still be hibernating.” Qin Yun observed, “Look, its long black fur is fully grown, it can walk and run—it looks like a little black dog.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black bear cub entered Qin Yun’s camp, clearly curious; its small eyes fixed on the blazing fire, its nose twitched, detected the scent, and without hesitation, it shuffled toward the flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun considered it, but remained still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This cub must have left its den for the first time—hungry, drawn by the smell of food, and woken from hibernation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was hushed, barely above a whisper, just loud enough for livestream viewers to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On camera, the cub approached the fire, eyeing the sizzling snow rabbit and the stone trough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It glanced at the rabbit, uninterested, but its eyes lit up at the fish soup in the trough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Black bears are extremely fond of fish. But it’s January—Atlin Lake is frozen, and the bears are hibernating, so they can’t reach fish. They only hunt during summer and autumn, when salmon migrate, rushing into streams and lakes—this instinct is embedded in their DNA.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone grew uneasy: “But my fish soup’s been right over the fire—this cub might get burned. I’m debating whether to go down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, a startled cry echoed from the camera: “Ooooh—!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cub had touched the trough—the heat seared it, and it leapt back several steps, its curious eyes now filled with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stared at the trough as if it were a dangerous creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun made no further hesitation—he climbed down from the tree and stomped heavily onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The loud noise startled the cub, which spun around and saw a massive creature staring at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cub, upon first seeing Qin Yun, showed no fear—only curiosity, studying him as if he were something novel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow, so cute—those eyes make you want to pet it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kawaii.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Its legs are so short, its body so chubby—so funny, I’d love to raise one at home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun took two cautious steps forward; the cub still showed no fear, only tilting its head upward to gaze at him, as if examining a strange new object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha,” Qin Yun chuckled softly, “This cub hasn’t developed the predator-prey mindset yet. Its mother hasn’t taught it how to survive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he moved closer to the cub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Black bears aren’t as dangerous as grizzlies. Even adult black bears pose little threat—if you don’t attack them, they won’t eat you. Their aggression is low.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But... if you encounter a mother bear with cubs, you must be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun walked past the cub, reached the fire, scooped a small portion of fish soup and fish meat into a separate spot, then gestured to the cub to come eat there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cub understood, inching forward slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the cold air and low temperature, the soup cooled instantly upon hitting the ground; the cub licked twice, then became addicted, devouring it ravenously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When finished, it looked up at Qin Yun, eyes pleading for more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun wasn’t stingy—he poured more into the trough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking, he took a whole frozen Arctic char from his backpack and placed it on the stone slab. When the cub had eaten its fill, he set the thawed fish directly before it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, casually, he patted its head and body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viewers in the livestream watched, envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Black bears aren’t aggressive, but they don’t refuse to eat humans,” Qin Yun said as the cub squatted to eat. “When you encounter any bear in the wild, never play dead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When I was a kid, our textbook said if you meet a bear, play dead—it’ll be fooled.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, mine said the same.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t that true?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bears are omnivores,” Qin Yun said, sipping fish soup while leaning against the spruce, watching the cub. “If it’s hungry, it doesn’t care if you’re dead or alive. Bears are also extremely playful—they’ll slap, lick, or even sit on a ‘dead’ person. So never play dead, especially with black bears.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll teach you a trick: when you encounter a black bear, don’t run immediately. Back away slowly, avoid direct eye contact. If it’s too close, open your coat to appear larger, speak loudly, and retreat gradually.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the drone faithfully recorded the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun lounged casually against the spruce, a fire burning beside him, and beside the fire squatted a black bear, happily munching on fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this moment, human and nature were perfectly in harmony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Qin Yun hadn’t forgotten: somewhere in the dark forest, a full-grown mother bear still slept in hibernation—who knew when she might wake up, alarmed by her cub’s absence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the mother woke and found her cub gone, she’d go mad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun patted the cub’s head; the cub looked up, puzzled, as if asking: What are you doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Qin Yun say nothing, the cub lowered its head again and resumed eating—the fish’s flavor was something it had never tasted in its life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eat up and leave—otherwise your mom won’t find you, and she’ll come looking for me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, viewers burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, even Qin Ye has fears.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s a bear—who isn’t scared?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Ye’s just a bully—he punches weak wolves, runs from bears and tigers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What wolves? Those six wolves could probably hunt down a black bear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Ye might fear grizzlies, but he’s not afraid of black bears.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun truly wasn’t afraid of black bears—an adult male weighed only about 180 kg. Though he couldn’t match its strength, in the forest he was confident it couldn’t catch him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, being chased by a black bear at night? That’d be terrible luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the cub finished the fish; its small body, stuffed with such a large meal, looked bloated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun poured it a little more fish soup to help with digestion, waited until it finished eating, then patted its rump.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, eaten and drunk, time to go back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little black bear shook its body, as if understanding Qin Yun’s words, and actually turned and walked back the way it came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it took three steps and looked back once, clearly reluctant to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet once the little black bear disappeared from his sight, Qin Yun rose and followed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keeping a distance behind the little black bear, Qin Yun trailed it for a while; after fifteen minutes, the bear slipped into a tree hollow not far from PEP.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waited a little longer, confirmed there was no further movement, then returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I hope the little black bear sleeps and doesn’t wake up—elsewhere, it won’t find someone as kind as me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun returned to the shelter, chatted for a few more moments, then ended the stream. He quickly set up simple traps and alarm devices outside the shelter, so he could react the moment any animal approached.\u003C\u002Fp>",1786,"2026-06-20T21:37:28.858Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","896c0fc8bcdbd3dc85c33a175a61f7f48a1a26624f09ac2ca6bd00c2d2bb15ac","bound-to-the-sign-in-system-i-took-off-chapter-186","bound-to-the-sign-in-system-i-took-off-chapter-184",329,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbound-to-the-sign-in-system-i-took-off-cover.jpg"]
