Chapter 334
"Wu wu! Wu wu!"
Just at this moment, the little lynx suddenly ran to Xiao Yi's front, excitedly biting a mouse.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi didn't pay attention to the little thing at first; their westward journey over the past two days had been smooth sailing.
Today was already the 89th day of "Wilderness Challenge: 100 Days in the Arctic."
One more day, just one more day, and according to the contract, Xiao Yi's second ten million would be in his hands.
Therefore, Xiao Yi's mood was particularly good at this moment.
Of course, tomorrow was also the day for the show's final physical examination.
Thinking that someone would come to chat with him a bit more tomorrow, Xiao Yi's mood felt even better.
Of course, Xiao Yi had also maintained the intensity of the little lynx's training these days, and the little thing had grown a lot, looking different every day.
These days, the little lynx had been finding its own food; of course, its main target for food these past few days had been mice.
Secondly, there were arctic hares and arctic ground squirrels.
Over the past few days, Xiao Yi's group had encountered 5 arctic hares and 4 arctic ground squirrels along the way.
However, the little thing had only managed to catch one of the five arctic hares; of course, that one hare had also allowed the little thing to have a truly satisfying meal.
As for the arctic ground squirrels, the little thing still had no desire to hunt them.
Although it didn't go as far as the head-patting kill from that day, it really hadn't actively chosen to hunt any of the arctic ground squirrels it had seen.
The two rough-legged buzzards, on the other hand, had a bumper harvest during this period.
The little lynx wouldn't hunt arctic ground squirrels, but the two rough-legged buzzards were very interested in them.
It was just that when faced with the problem of hunting arctic ground squirrels, they still had to get past the little lynx.
The little lynx not only refused to hunt arctic ground squirrels itself but also didn't allow the two rough-legged buzzards to catch them.
For this reason, the little lynx and the two rough-legged buzzards had fought at least four times over the issue of arctic ground squirrels; of course, they were all one-on-one battles.
As the two rough-legged buzzards spent more and more time with Xiao Yi, they had come to understand Xiao Yi's mind through testing.
It wasn't that they couldn't fight with this little lynx, or even hunt, but they could only hunt it one-on-one.
Whenever a two-on-one situation occurred, the human would step in to stop it.
Of course, the little lynx naturally understood this situation, but it didn't care.
With more and more fighting experience against the two rough-legged buzzards, the little lynx was now not afraid of one-on-one fights at all.
Although it would get a few more claw marks on its body each time, the two rough-legged buzzards didn't fare much better, as they would have a few feathers plucked out by the little lynx each time.
If this kind of fighting were to continue for a long time, I'm afraid the little lynx wouldn't have a single piece of good skin left in the end.
As for the two rough-legged buzzards, they might even become bald buzzards!
However, it must be said that although fighting caused injuries, the effect was still very obvious.
The little lynx's combat experience and vigilance were now incomparable to when it had just crossed that mountain.
Of course, the two rough-legged buzzards hadn't been without gains these days; the arctic ground squirrels had only been caught once because of the little lynx.
But of the five arctic hares, although the little lynx only caught one, the two rough-legged buzzards had managed to catch two of the remaining four.
Regarding the arctic hares, the little lynx had no other thoughts; when it saw the two rough-legged buzzards catch the hares, it just glanced at them and ignored them.
However, the two rough-legged buzzards being able to have such a harvest was thanks to the freedom Xiao Yi gave them.
In fact, on the third day after crossing the mountain, Xiao Yi had untied the rough-legged buzzard that had its wings bound.
It was mainly because Xiao Yi felt that this stupid bird was already familiar with him and was willing to obey some of his commands.
Of course, such a decision was still somewhat risky; if the stupid bird chose to fly away the moment Xiao Yi let it go, Xiao Yi really had no other good solution.
He could only watch helplessly, or pick up the wooden spear in his hand and try to throw it at the sky.
Of course, when Xiao Yi released it, the stupid bird really did fly away.
Seeing that rough-legged buzzard fly away directly, the netizens in the live stream all felt it was a pity.
However, what everyone didn't expect in the end was that this rough-legged buzzard flew back again.
And it wasn't just the one that flew back; both of them flew back together.
Even after that time they flew back, the male rough-legged buzzard never flew away again, while the female rough-legged buzzard would leave with food from Xiao Yi every day.
Clearly, this male rough-legged buzzard chose to stay with Xiao Yi to provide positioning for the female rough-legged buzzard.
And this scene also left Xiao Yi somewhat amused; he knew these two rough-legged buzzards really took him as a long-term meal ticket.
However, the choice of the two rough-legged buzzards wasn't wrong; Xiao Yi's place was perhaps the best place for them to obtain food stably.
"Go eat over there!"
At this time, Xiao Yi said this after shooing the little lynx to the side.
Although Xiao Yi intended to cultivate the little lynx's self-care ability, he still couldn't help but avoid mice from the bottom of his heart, and even felt somewhat disgusted by them.
And the little thing's food for the past two days had been mice, so every time he saw the little thing bring back a mouse, Xiao Yi would tell it to go eat it elsewhere.
In fact, it wasn't just the little lynx; the rough-legged buzzards following in the sky had also caught several mice these past two days; the mice in this nearby area had probably all been ravaged by these two guys.
"Wu wu! Wu wu!"
Seeing Xiao Yi's look of disgust, the little lynx just let out two "wu wu" calls and left.
Initially, the little thing felt somewhat aggrieved by Xiao Yi's attitude, but it had gotten used to it later on.
After the little thing left, Xiao Yi didn't pay any more attention to it.
Xiao Yi was now planning to set up camp; the environment outside had been getting increasingly harsh over the past two days.
Whenever Xiao Yi took off his goggles and neck gaiter to get some air, a layer of snow would quickly appear on his eyebrows and beard.
Therefore, Xiao Yi rarely took off his goggles and neck gaiter while outside now.
Of course, traveling west for so many days, Xiao Yi had actually walked over a hundred miles west.
But the awkward thing was that Xiao Yi hadn't found any other contestants' previous shelters in this wilderness.
However, this was actually quite normal; after all, in this vast wilderness, finding shelters left by other contestants was truly no different from finding a needle in a haystack.
And Xiao Yi himself didn't feel any frustration; in his view, it would be better if he could find one, but it didn't matter if he couldn't; it wouldn't delay him from making money.
Of course, the travel over the past few days had also increased Xiao Yi's knowledge.
But it must be said that this area was indeed more lacking in resources compared to the area where he was initially, but it was also relatively much safer.
