Chapter 141

Following the cougar's cry, some ground squirrels in the surrounding area that had not yet fallen into hibernation all tried their best to cover their scent and sounds at this moment.

For these Arctic ground squirrels, this cougar was definitely one of their natural enemies.

Unlike jaguars that prey on large prey like wild oxen, cougars prefer to hunt small prey like Arctic ground squirrels and snow hares.

In terms of their respective temperaments, comparing the two, the jaguar is actually more like a big cat, while the cougar is a small cat.

The night was deep, and there were only a few hours left until the forty-eighth day of the wilderness challenge passed.

For Jiang Yiyi and Mu Tingwei, their hearts were excitedly waiting at this moment.

At this time, they only needed to wait for the sun to rise twice and the sun to set once.

According to the rules of the production team, as long as a contestant can persist until the sun rises on the fiftieth day, then the contestant is considered to have entered the prize zone.

At that time, they could take their three hundred thousand in remuneration and return home satisfied to enjoy a big meal.

As for the three people including Xiao Yi who were aiming to get the full grand prize, it naturally only counted as taking a small step in the show, so even though they were close to the prize zone, Xiao Yi had gone to sleep early.

It was just that shortly after Xiao Yi fell asleep, in the dense forest within the range of his shelter, a pair of large black eyes were secretly peeking at Xiao Yi's shelter.

The owner of these eyes was exactly that brown bear that had been driven away by Xiao Yi that day.

After arriving near Xiao Yi's shelter, this brown bear stopped subconsciously.

Because Xiao Yi was inside the log cabin, his scent was very faint, but this brown bear smelled the scent of those two black bears.

"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

Just after this brown bear stopped its steps, the snow hares in the rabbit pen seemed to have sensed danger at this moment, and they were hissing incessantly.

After hearing the snow hares hissing in the rabbit pen, this brown bear's eyes turned blood-red, and the whole bear even started to lose its reason.

Because this was the sound of prey, in this food-scarce wilderness.

The hissing of these snow hares was no less than celestial music to this big brown bear, enough to make it fight for its life.

Just at the moment the brown bear became irritable, Gou Dan in the bear den seemed to have smelled some scent, and its bear fur immediately stood on end.

"Roar!"

After a bear roar, Gou Dan rushed out of the bear den directly, stood not far from the rabbit pen, and issued a warning roar toward the position where the brown bear was.

The peace of the past many days had made Gou Dan somewhat negligent at this time.

Added to the bad weather during this period, Gou Dan didn't smell the arrival of this brown bear at the first moment.

However, seeing the big guy opposite, Gou Dan didn't dare to act rashly for a moment.

Although Gou Dan was usually very cocky, considering itself the overlord of this wilderness.

But Gou Dan also knew that was just its own opinion; whether it was that human inside the log cabin or the brown bear in front of it, it was still lacking something.

But if this brown bear wanted to target these snow hares, Gou Dan wouldn't mind having a bloody fight.

Although these prey belonged to that human inside the log cabin, Gou Dan had always considered them its own, and these prey were also its hope for surviving this harsh winter.

If any intruder dared to target these prey, that would be a life-and-death enemy, even if the brown bear in front of it was an existence it usually had to retreat from upon seeing.

As for Hei Dan, who had already fallen into a deep sleep, he was also awakened by Gou Dan's roar at this time.

The division of labor between the two bears was now very clear; one bear could only be lazy and sleep for half a day, all for the sake of guarding the rabbit pen and the fish meat hanging around the log cabin.

As old hunters surviving in this wilderness, Hei Dan and Gou Dan were actually more vigilant than Xiao Yi, a wilderness novice.

Because the two bears could better understand what this food represented in the wilderness.

Afterwards, Hei Dan also heard the anxiety in Gou Dan's roar outside, and after an angry roar, he also rushed outside.

When he saw the situation outside, Hei Dan was somewhat terrified.

At this moment, that large brown bear was only fifty meters away from his brother, and both of them were showing fighting postures.

Different from his brother's cunning and caution, Hei Dan's youthful recklessness had once made him try to provoke a brown bear.

The result... he fled the brown bear's territory somewhat disheveled, but he, Hei Dan, just wouldn't accept it.

"Roar!"

At this time, the brown bear also noticed Hei Dan's arrival, and the irritability originally in its heart calmed down a lot.

There was no way around it; it wasn't that easy to win a one-on-two fight.

However, wanting to make this brown bear give up the pile of food that looked like a small mountain in front of it was naturally impossible.

Finally, its inner greed for food made it decide to give it a try.

Subsequently, the big brown bear was seen rushing directly toward the direction of the rabbit pen.

As for Gou Dan at this time, he had no fear and rushed toward the big brown bear head-on.

Hei Dan naturally wouldn't just be a spectator; seeing his brother rushing forward, he also gathered all his strength and bit toward the big brown bear in front of him.

In Hei Dan's view, his chance for revenge had arrived; although it wasn't the same brown bear, as long as it was a brown bear, it wasn't a good thing, and if there was a chance, he would definitely bite it.

Moreover, his cunning brother was there at this time, which gave Hei Dan even more confidence.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Subsequently, the three bears fought into a ball; the big brown bear came up with a bear paw and slapped directly toward Gou Dan's face.

Gou Dan was not weak either; he skillfully dodged the bear paw coming toward him, intending to use his body to withstand this slap from the big brown bear.

This was to allow Hei Dan, who was rushing over at this moment, to find a chance for a fatal blow the moment the big brown bear unloaded its force.

They were all experienced old hunters in this wilderness and naturally knew the weaknesses of each other's attacks.

Of course, when they fought, every move was fatal, and there were no redundant actions, hoping to achieve victory with the smallest cost.

At this moment, Hei Dan, who was rushing over, bit directly toward the big brown bear's throat after the brown bear's paw landed on Gou Dan.

As long as Hei Dan could bite this big brown bear's throat, no matter how strong this guy was, it would be hard to escape death.

Unfortunately, this big brown bear was no pushover; borrowing the force of Gou Dan's body rebounding, it stood up directly, causing Hei Dan to fail to bite its throat.

But even so, it was still bitten on the forelimb by Hei Dan, and blood flowed immediately.

Although the big brown bear looked miserable at this moment, Gou Dan, who had been slapped by the bear paw, was actually not in such a good situation either.

With a black bear's sturdy body, Gou Dan had his whole body slapped down to the ground, and it took a while before he stood up again.

One could imagine how great this brown bear's strength was; it was clearly also holding the idea of a fatal blow.

If Gou Dan had really been slapped on the head at that time, it probably wouldn't have been much better than being bitten on the throat.

"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

At this time, the struggle of the three bears made the snow hares in the rabbit pen even more terrified and uneasy.

At this moment, they were all desperately scurrying in the rabbit pen, wanting to break free from the constraints of the rabbit pen.

As for Xiao Yi, who was sleeping at this time, he also woke up abruptly.

The initial bear roar hadn't been able to attract much of Xiao Yi's attention, and it couldn't even affect his sleep.

This was because every night, the two bears, Hei Dan and Gou Dan, would roar from time to time.

Xiao Yi had already become accustomed to the bear roars when sleeping in the middle of the night, but today's bear roars were a bit too dense.

This made Xiao Yi realize that something might have happened!

Afterwards, he hurriedly put on his clothes, took his axe and wooden stick, and walked outside, but his walking posture still looked slightly awkward.

When the drone's light shone out, Xiao Yi was also stunned.

"Three bears? And that big bear that just came... looks a bit familiar!"
