Seeing his bounty, Wei Wenchang was overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought he was safe now—his only goal was to survive until the prize zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With just over ten days left until the prize zone, even if he caught nothing else,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was confident he could last through these final days with these three fish and some stored mushrooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even believed heaven itself was helping him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, for food safety, Wei Wenchang had gone to some trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hung all the fish on a thick branch using ropes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the coniferous forest, finding a branch strong enough to hold over twenty catties of fish wasn’t easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially one within his camp’s perimeter—but with effort, he’d found one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, the rope’s distance would prevent even tree-climbing predators from reaching his fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But... he’d underestimated the intelligence and superior physical abilities of wild predators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This method only worked for two days—and then his fish became fish heads!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this scene, Wei Wenchang’s eyes filled with confusion, even a touch of despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven had granted him a blessing, then taken it back within two days—this emotional blow was worse than never receiving it at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, Wei Wenchang approached and examined the ground beneath the fish heads, finding a mess of scattered footprints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These are wolverine tracks!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several confirmations, Wei Wenchang muttered bitterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the show, Yinfu Company had trained all contestants on the footprints of top predators in the Maple Wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Wenchang could easily identify what animal had left these prints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he hadn’t expected was that a wolverine—a creature both clever and cunning—had entered his camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason Wei Wenchang had lasted so long on the show was largely because his camp’s surroundings resembled Wu En’s:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Top predators rarely visited, and if they did, they only passed through briefly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only predator that had actually entered his camp might have been this wolverine, stealing his fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Wenchang now felt a deep sense of sorrow—misfortune never comes alone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he wasn’t some monster like Xiao Yi, nor a lunatic like Wu En.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single wolverine posed a serious threat to him—possibly forcing him to abandon this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his live stream, viewers were flooding the chat with sympathy, many urging him to quit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Wei had it rough today!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, Old Wei’s done well. We all know how good his video editing is, but making it this far proves he has real wilderness survival skills.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right—if Old Wei can’t take it anymore, just come back! Dads don’t mind you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What hurt Old Wei most today was the psychological blow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s such a shame—those three fish alone, plus some extra foraging, would’ve gotten him through the prize zone. After all, just entering the prize zone means a 300,000-yuan reward.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What can you do? Fate is fate! It just means the prize zone isn’t meant for Old Wei. Better to come back and livestream—you might even earn more.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Wei Wenchang couldn’t see the comments flooding his live stream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he’d have shouted loudly: “Alright, brothers! I’m heading home tonight—I’ll be back livestreaming tomorrow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d long wanted to leave this hellhole, but he’d stayed out of fear for his future livelihood, enduring hunger and constant anxiety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Xiao Yi at this moment, he woke up half-asleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weather had grown colder again, and his ability to linger in bed had strengthened—today, he’d slept half an hour longer than usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After stepping outside, Xiao Yi noticed the two lazy bears had woken up unusually early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were staring at him with eager eyes. Seeing this, Xiao Yi instantly understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two bastards were hungry—they needed feeding!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dog Egg was hungry because he’d been punished yesterday; Black Egg? Pure gluttony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi then searched for lynx bones and meat, selected some, tossed them to the two bears, along with some raw wild greens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, balance mattered—meat and vegetables, proper nutrition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for himself, since he was still thin, he should eat more meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the two bears froze at the sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No cooked food today?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you yelling about? At least you’ve got something to eat!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi snapped back at their growls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Correct—from today on, not only Black Egg, but Dog Egg too, would get no more cooked food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until Black Egg fully recovered, both bears would be kicked out together!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, both bears this time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coming days would grow colder; Xiao Yi planned to stockpile more fish for winter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once food storage was sufficient, he wouldn’t leave camp again—he’d wait out the show’s end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he intended to release the bears into the wild, letting the two giants hibernate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the bears didn’t need to hibernate, their food intake would rise sharply with the cold—and that was the last thing Xiao Yi wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to hibernate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the more you raise a pet, the more attached you get—better to part early, so the farewell won’t hurt as much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time these two giants woke from hibernation, Xiao Yi would already have left this wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the two bears looked at the lynx bones and meat on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were still reluctant, especially Dog Egg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Egg was fine—he’d already re-adapted to raw meat these past few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, soon enough, both bears began eating.\u003C\u002Fp>",1209,"2026-06-20T08:19:46.963Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","40d808197ade501fcd1d42b3431c7f45ec209c6557f9302b7e3566b3c5060cdf","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-103","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-101",366,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-cover.jpg"]
