Don’t you see I’ve got two food sources at home?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After stepping outside, Xiao Yi headed straight for the general location he remembered as the “food” spot; to pinpoint the exact location, he’d rely on his sense of smell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the two bears, Black Egg and Dog Egg, they simply followed Xiao Yi dumbly, their noses twitching constantly as they too used their own sense of smell to hunt for food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Still here, Dog Egg, circle left and check if there are rabbit burrows on the left slope; Black Egg, go right and check. I’ll light smoke at the burrow entrance up ahead—when the rabbit runs out, you two chase it. Remember, don’t kill it. Understood?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Xiao Yi caught the scent of a rabbit ahead on the small hill and immediately began giving orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the old saying goes: a cunning rabbit has three burrows. But no matter how clever this rabbit was, today it had run into Xiao Yi—and his two top wilderness lieutenants, Black Egg and Dog Egg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, the melting snow made Xiao Yi’s journey unpleasant—not only did it dull his sense of smell, but it also made his nose ache from the cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having been with Xiao Yi for a long time, the two bears naturally understood some of his phrases and gestures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, even without Xiao Yi speaking, the two bears were already restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bears’ sense of smell was even sharper than Xiao Yi’s; if he could smell the rabbit, there was no way Black Egg and Dog Egg couldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the temperamental Black Egg, before Xiao Yi gave the order, had already started trotting along the rabbit’s trail, eager to rush ahead and catch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Xiao Yi’s command, he skidded to a sudden stop, nearly slipping over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving Xiao Yi’s instructions, the two bears split off to the left and right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiao Yi prepared to head out hunting, the three guests in the main live stream were closely watching his next moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the man and two bears coordinating their attack, everyone was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how are other wild animals supposed to survive against this combo?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the lively Bai Lin joked, “Xiong Zai, hurry up and learn this teamwork skill—once you master it, just take Black Egg and run away. Stop letting Xiao Shen exploit you every day.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a staunch member of the Bear Faction in Xiao Shen’s live stream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Xiao Yi’s live stream had secretly divided into three factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First and foremost was the Xiao Faction, dedicated supporters who tuned in solely for Xiao Yi—this group was the largest, making up at least half the viewers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second faction was the Bear Faction, who found the two bears beside Xiao Shen both terrifying and adorable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They came to Xiao Yi’s stream specifically to watch Black Egg and Dog Egg’s daily antics; their numbers were smaller.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third faction was the CP Faction, pairing Xiao Yi with the two bears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These viewers came to the stream solely to watch the interactions between Xiao Yi and the two bears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Xiao Yi didn’t know about the existence of the CP Faction—if he did, he’d be so depressed he’d spit blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want to form any damn CP with these dumb bears; only beautiful girls could be his CP.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Yang Qingni’s toxic luck would be better than this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Ren Qingyu was much quieter—whether it was his natural personality or his character setup, no one knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since joining the show, Ren Qingyu spoke little, mostly listening, answering only when directly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Bei Ye, he chuckled slightly, glancing at the two new guests with such contrasting personalities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a wilderness master, he naturally admired Xiao Yi’s current approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had hunted wild rabbits in the wild before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, he too would first identify one burrow entrance to prepare for smoking out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he’d search for other burrow entrances and block them to trap the rabbits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually, rabbit burrows had two entrances; Bei Ye had even seen some with three or four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of entrances depended mostly on the rabbit’s surrounding environment and the threat level from large predatory animals nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for reaching into the burrow with your hands—forget the rabbit escaping through another entrance; even if it didn’t, no one would ever do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was far too dangerous. Rabbits may seem docile, but their bite force is surprisingly strong—they can even snap fingers. Wild rabbits’ bite force would be even greater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Xiao Yi had made his preparations and, through his sense of smell, had pinpointed the exact location of the rabbit’s burrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Black Egg and Dog Egg had each discovered other burrow entrances on the left and right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dog Egg remained calm, just firmly blocking the entrance; Black Egg, however, had already impatiently reached a paw into the hole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sent the snow rabbit inside into a frenzy of terrified squeals—it clearly sensed the danger outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi, unhurried, pulled out the dried grass he’d prepared and lit it with a flint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he took a thin wooden board he’d already set aside and gently fanned the air, guiding the smoke into the burrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the smoke entered, the snow rabbit’s cries grew sharper and more frantic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the rabbit was suffocating from the smoke and terrified by the bear paws outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rabbit probably wouldn’t believe until its death that a bear and a human could team up to catch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This rabbit was surprisingly resilient—after over ten minutes of smoke, it still hadn’t fled, which surprised Xiao Yi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But eventually, the snow rabbit couldn’t endure the heavy smoke and bolted out through the burrow guarded by Dog Egg—after all, it was the safest exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it emerged, its heart froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, just a short distance from the burrow, sat another black bear, watching it with a mocking gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if to say, “Surprised? Unexpected?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rabbit spun around in panic and dashed left—but before it had taken two steps, a human figure appeared directly in front of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forced to turn again, it ran only a short distance before another large bear, scarred near the eye, blocked its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the rabbit realized it was completely surrounded by this man and his two bears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the terrified snow rabbit before him, Xiao Yi felt a flicker of satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the expression a rabbit should have when facing Xiao Yi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That damn rabbit? Just an anomaly in this wilderness rabbit population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In its panic, the rabbit stared at the man and two bears, utterly hopeless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But surrendering wasn’t an option—it had to break through the weakest-looking opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It charged straight toward Xiao Yi, hoping to outmaneuver him with its speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sound rang out—the snow rabbit slammed into a wooden stick, which then dropped down and pinned its neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how it struggled or squealed, the stick didn’t budge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Xiao Yi had prepared for this—the rabbit might be agile, but Xiao Yi was even quicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, and what made Xiao Yi truly angry, was that he’d been underestimated again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouldn’t it have tried to escape through the two dumb bears? That’d have been the smarter move.\u003C\u002Fp>",1261,"2026-06-20T08:19:46.963Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","32a01ad0bcbbdcb2245481c3d5a2645d3220b1fb8e91c692c56441419c69ed8b","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-67","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-65",366,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-cover.jpg"]
