I have to say, this piece of poplar wood is actually quite heavy—though the real challenge isn’t the weight, it’s keeping balance, and that took me some effort.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yi didn’t dawdle; he slapped his hands together, dropped into a horse stance, and using the power of his waist, hoisted the poplar log onto his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first sensation was a sharp pain in his shoulders—he immediately regretted not padding them, even just with some grass or sand would’ve helped!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the feeling wasn’t bad; at least carrying it back to his “shabby little home” shouldn’t be a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the viewers watching the screen, upon hearing his earlier remark and seeing his current action, were all stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Was that even human speech? What do you mean ‘a bit’ heavy? Top-tier French?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, this guy actually lifted that poplar log? And he doesn’t even look strained.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just want to know—what would the world’s strongest man, Fiji, think if he saw this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s there to think? Fiji is just human limit; this guy is definitely a superhero—I admit it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think we should contact the National Academy of Sciences. This guy is worth studying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could this be fake? That tree weighs at least a thousand jin—is this even a human?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s there to discuss about this livestream? Just report it—it’s an insult to our intelligence. That tree’s interior must’ve been hollowed out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bro, this is the official Yinfu account, dedicated to livestreaming wilderness solo living. Are you sure you want to stick to that view?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yinfu Dad, I’m sorry! Don’t ban my account! But is there really a monster this strong? Even Xiang Yu or Li Xiaocun couldn’t have been better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This guy was born in the wrong era—if he’d lived in ancient times, he’d have dominated an age as a mighty general.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yefeng Tingyu gifted Xiao Yi the exclusive item ‘Phoenix Dance Through Nine Heavens’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Feng gifted Xiao Yi ‘Era of Prosperity’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yefeng Tingyu gifted Xiao Yi the exclusive item ‘Phoenix Dance Through Nine Heavens’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Uncle Who Loves Fire gifted Xiao Yi ‘Era of Prosperity’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yefeng Tingyu gifted Xiao Yi the exclusive item ‘Phoenix Dance Through Nine Heavens’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aibushishou gifted Xiao Yi ‘Era of Prosperity’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yefeng Tingyu: “I was assigned a two-hundred-million project by my dad this morning—I wonder if I’m too late now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My god, two hundred million is just a small project? No wonder Yefeng is a legend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They say Yefeng is the darling of Wei Wencang from Dongqing Pharmaceuticals—is this confirmed?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit, the heiress of Dongqing Pharmaceuticals, top three in China’s pharmaceutical industry? No wonder two hundred million is a small project.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qieyi gifted Xiao Yi the exclusive item ‘Dragon Totem’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qieyi gifted Xiao Yi the exclusive item ‘Dragon Totem’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh! Qieyi the boss is here! Welcome, boss!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Welcome, boss! Let’s touch some luck!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qieyi: “This streamer is truly incredible.

Damn, who the hell is this streamer?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yefeng Tingyu: “Oh? Little Xiao’s here! I saw you spamming hard just now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wozixiaoyao: “Boss, I only did it because I like a female streamer and wanted to hit the hourly leaderboard. Had I known you and Qieyi bro were here, I wouldn’t have lifted a finger.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Yefeng Tingyu’s comment, Wozixiaoyao quickly typed a reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no choice—he had some money, but compared to tycoons like Yefeng and Qieyi, who ranked in the top ten overall, he was still far behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qieyi: “Isn’t this more fun than watching female streamers?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wozixiaoyao: “Qieyi bro’s right, but I still prefer big… uh, but this livestream’s audience is actually pretty entertaining—I’ll definitely support it. Anyone from the UK? Tell Mei Ying I’m not coming back for now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sorry, big bro, I can’t carry that—I’m also planning to stay away for now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, I want to see if this guy’s really a real man—I’m gonna…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mei Ying: “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Mei Ying was completely stunned. After her fans had all left, she decided to end the stream—there was no point continuing if nothing was changing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, she felt uneasy, so she secretly logged into her alternate account to see who had stolen her hourly leaderboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon entering, she saw this scene that made her heart sink—sure enough, fans were all big pork feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoa…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two more hours passed, and Xiao Yi carried back every piece of the trunk—even the branches, all laid out to dry under the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These poplar branches were excellent firewood—the key to surviving winter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing all this, his livestream audience suddenly reached 1.7 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, during the same time slot, besides Xiao Yi’s, the most-viewed stream was Liu Hong’s, whose viewership also surpassed one million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sister, ever absentminded, accidentally set her house on fire while making breakfast this morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just bad luck—but since today was only the second day of the show, though her humble home burned, it didn’t break her spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, none of this affected Xiao Yi—he continued methodically with his plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took out yesterday’s fish, cut off a large piece to roast, then resumed building his wooden door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lined up branches of similar size, then bound them together with rope selected from his top ten pre-selected tools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The craftsmanship wasn’t refined—even somewhat crude—but the main reason was that Xiao Yi hadn’t taken it too seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this simple house was only his temporary shelter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he had a dream: to build a house with a heated brick bed in the Arctic Circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gaps were also packed with grass and sand—if it still leaked wind, the door would’ve been a waste of effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Friends, look at this door—perfect fit. With this, I’ll be much warmer and safer at night. After all, I don’t want a bear showing up while I sleep.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the installed door, Xiao Yi first felt satisfied, then proudly addressed the drone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his words instantly sparked a wave of meme-makers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, now your bear beside you is finally safe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly! Bears are so cute—I don’t want to see one turned into steamed bear paws someday.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve finally done something good for the bear kingdom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bear: “To live past thirty-five, stay far away from Xiao Yi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You guys are all geniuses—but honestly, if this guy meets a bear, we’ve got real reason to worry about the bear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right. A bear’s full-force paw strike is 1600 kg. From my observation, this guy’s full-power punch equals two bear strikes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bear: “When did I become a unit of measurement?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Xiao Yi didn’t know what was being said in the comments—otherwise he’d have proudly shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m the only man in this century confirmed by netizens to have fought a bear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, wilderness survival still requires a bit of luck. After finishing everything at home, Xiao Yi left to search for clay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, luck didn’t seem to be on his side.\u003C\u002Fp>",1194,"2026-06-20T08:19:46.963Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","312d6a0367359c8eb10dc1bd415752f38c73276171c08e9fdbaf423caf8bbabe","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-9","starting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-chapter-7",366,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-a-solitary-life-in-the-wilds-cover.jpg"]
