Now I’m hungry again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think Xiao Shen is the biggest obstacle on my weight-loss journey—he just quietly ate two more pig’s trotters.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where’s the wilderness survival? Where’s the hunger? My Big God doesn’t respect this show.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure enough, my Big God turned survival into a food show again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Watching Big God gnaw on wolf bones, I could almost smell it through the screen—anyone know what wolf meat actually tastes like? I’m curious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve actually eaten it. My hometown’s in the mountains—when I was a kid, my third uncle hunted a wild wolf, and I ate some. I can’t describe the flavor—it was similar to poultry, but firmer, with a slight fishy odor. Maybe our family was poor back then and lacked spices to mask the smell. The wolf hide, though, reeked of foul stench.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoa, turns out there are real experts in this livestream! Someone actually ate wild wolf—now I really want to try some.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wei Ling Public Security Bureau reminds you: Dual silver handcuffs reward alert!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jin Ming Forestry Bureau reminds you: Big pot meal warning!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Donglin Court reminds you: Both above are correct!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, the official accounts are being playful again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t expect so many official accounts are hiding in Xiao Shen’s livestream—watch your comments from now on. But hey, don’t official staff have jobs to do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t this their job? Isn’t my Big God worth official attention? Such a dangerous man.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t fear the officials—while we can’t eat wild wolves, we can eat farmed ones! Just as delicious—I recently had stir-fried wolf meat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where can I buy it? I’ll go get some!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the comment section buzzed over the ten-ingredient wolf bone soup, Xiao Yi had already finished his meal and resumed his work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Xiao Yi had no cement and couldn’t produce any here, he used clay as a substitute to build the heated bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The livestream grew dull again, as Xiao Yi spent the next long stretch playing with mud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Building a heated bed required skill—and a blueprint. Xiao Yi wasn’t some seasoned craftsman whose knowledge was etched into his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi initially knew nothing about constructing a heated bed—he wasn’t from the Northeast. But luckily, he was a man with a system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing a system can’t fix—if it can’t, double the free attribute points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi spent one free attribute point to exchange with the system for the heated bed blueprint and related construction knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t too upset about spending that one point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason? The heated bed was his winter survival essential—it would greatly boost his chances in this wilderness challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, Xiao Yi was truly rich today. He still couldn’t afford to eat two portions and throw one away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But through accumulated gains, his unused free attribute points now totaled 57.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifty-seven points were enough to handle any sudden emergency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, as long as the wilderness challenge continued and he wasn’t eliminated, more free attribute points would keep flowing in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Xiao Yi’s old habit of showing off hadn’t been corrected yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After obtaining the blueprint and gathering all materials, he turned again toward the drone livestream to show off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Friends, we’re about to build the heated bed. Young folks from Northeast China might’ve seen one as kids—even now, some rural areas still use them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The heated bed is the wisdom of Northeast laborers. Before air conditioning and central heating, it was the key to surviving the cold, saving countless lives.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So today, I’ll use this wisdom of Northeast laborers to help me conquer this Arctic wilderness challenge.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Xiao Yi kept talking, his hands didn’t pause—he picked up firebricks and began building according to the blueprint in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Today we’re building an eight-row stove and nine-row bed—I estimate we’ll need about 400 firebricks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now we’re laying the front wall—the fire wall. Its function is heat dispersion. Watch my technique—if you’re interested and your home allows it, you can try building one yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the chimney—the smoke outlet. It’s crucial; it determines whether our heated bed will reach proper temperature.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But we’ll also build a return air duct here. The heated bed works on airflow principles—cold and hot air meet at the chimney, cold air enters the room, hot air exits, preventing overheating. That’s the return air duct’s purpose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time flew. Around four in the afternoon, vast clouds of crimson glow appeared in the western sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Against this dazzling sunset, the lonely, desolate wilderness seemed suddenly warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Xiao Yi was filthy—clay stuck to his clothes, even his hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t care. He was thrilled—his long-awaited heated bed was finally complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it wasn’t dry yet, and its reliability untested, simply seeing the finished structure filled Xiao Yi with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagerly, he downed another large bowl of ten-ingredient wolf bone soup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xiao Yi actually complete the heated bed, viewers in the livestream were delighted for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, many had come to his livestream precisely because of his unusual idea: building a heated bed and log cabin for wilderness survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi’s success was a powerful reply to all viewers who had supported his heated bed project.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It proved that living alone in the Arctic wilderness didn’t mean only hunger and freezing—life could still be relatively comfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>",965,"2026-06-20T08:19:46.963Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","726466941f7689a5d5797014d75208f40e0ff7216c7fea449add43a9a42851ae","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-43","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-41",366,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-cover.jpg"]
