YM778.TV Chapter 19 - 19 Is that you, Leap Soil?
This is it, there’s no more hope.
Many viewers sighed, feeling that this miss was especially regrettable.
Even Bi Fang was about to give up, ready to step out when the unexpected happened
The rabbit that had just turned its head halfway suddenly stopped moving!
It just stared quietly at the diagonal front as if it had noticed nothing.
Bi Fang, who was about to relax, was shocked again, and his body posture became even more uncomfortable and bizarre, as if each second were lasting an eternity!
I can’t take it anymore…
Bi Fang felt his calves trembling, and beads of sweat slid down his forehead, spreading a salty taste around his lips.
How much longer must he endure?
A second, ten seconds, or a minute?
He wanted to give up, but each time he considered it, a strong reluctance surged in his heart.
The craving for his prey made Bi Fang lie in wait like a fierce tiger; he licked his teeth and claws, waiting only for the prey to turn back so he could snap its throat with his sharp teeth.
Time dragged on until Bi Fang’s patience was nearly worn thin, and just as he was about to strike!
The rabbit turned its head towards somewhere else.
“Ha~”
The tightly wound Bi Fang suddenly relaxed and took a half-step forward, moving behind the bushes to the right.
Blood circulated swiftly, soothing his aching calves.
Just as relaxed were the several hundred viewers in front of the screens, whose spirits could hardly be at ease with all the recent twists and turns.
Rubbing his calves, Bi Fang crept forward again, but with even more subtle and careful movements. The distance was now very close, making it easier to startle the rabbit.
But that wasn’t enough. Bi Fang knew very well that this hunt must not fail; he had to get within five, or even four meters!
Seven meters, six meters, five meters.
Bi Fang finally got within about four meters. He raised his Short Spear, aiming at the rabbit’s body, but he didn’t move.
By now, even Bi Fang’s slightest movements completely alerted the rabbit.
The wind direction somewhat carried away his scent, and the sounds had completely vanished.
The rabbit sniffed around, found nothing, rubbed its head, and stood upright.
Yes!
Stand up, stand up a bit more…
Bi Fang silently chanted in his heart.
At that moment, the rabbit’s body was fully upright.
Now!
Bi Fang’s legs pushed off, and in the blink of an eye, he burst out of the bushes!
The forest breeze bore down, the weeds rustled, and under the sunlight, his agile figure stretched out long, like a tiger pouncing on its prey!
Bi Fang gritted his teeth hard, his muscles exerting force without cost, power silently flowing through muscles and meridians, as if the long breath went from his lungs straight to the tips of his fingers, driving his arms to hurl the Short Spear!
In a flash, a spark of cold light arrived first!
Whiz!
Thud!
Blood, dyed the land red.
The rabbit, just about to run, was firmly nailed to the ground, its legs thrashing twice but unable to budge the Short Spear, and gradually, it lay still.
It was dead.
[Aahhhhhhh!!]
[It hit! The spear hit!]
[Damn, I’ve never been so excited about a World Cup goal! All rise!]
[Lord Mu sent the host a Super Rocket*1—Impressive! I’ve been watching outdoors for so many years, Old Fang is the best!]
[Fat Cat Pete sent the host a Rocket*1—Awesome!!!]
[Awesome plus]
[This posture, these skills; it reminds me of Leap Soil from my childhood…]
[666, is that you, Leap Soil?]
[All my fish balls are yours!]
…
For a moment, the live-streaming room was nearly overwhelmed by the audience’s enthusiasm, showered with various praises and gifts sent out like money didn’t matter. There was no denying that Bi Fang’s effort that morning was very much worthwhile. Not only had he gained more fans, but he had also secured his meals for the day.
“Heh-ha!”
Bi Fang gasped for breath; this fully-focused hunt had drained much of his energy, but seeing the audience’s teasing, he couldn’t help but smile happily.
He pulled out the Short Spear and used some dirt not stained with blood to wipe off the bloodstain, then picked up the rabbit. But just as he reached out, a dark shadow suddenly darted out from his right!
Bi Fang’s pupils dilated, instinctively thinking it was some venomous snake, and before he could retract his hand, he saw the shadow graze past his fingertips and flee towards the distance, and then…
Bang!
The sound of flesh and trees colliding violently was clearly audible.
[Damn, that scared the crap out of me, what just flew by?]
[Me too, but seeing Old Fang also got scared, I’m relieved. …]
[Was that a rabbit just now?]
[The second one?]
[Master Fang, go take a look, it seems to have hit a tree?]
Bi Fang, still shaken, looked at the barrage of comments and carried the rabbit to the base of a nearby tree.
A rabbit with a bleeding head was shockingly lying motionless under the tree!
Holy crap, this is bloody gold!
[Motherf*cker, guarding a stump waiting for rabbits really paid off!]
[My God, is that really a rabbit?]
[A free rabbit, is that even possible?]
The vast audience of Shuiyou (Online Friends / Audience) were stunned by the scene, never expecting that the old proverb would come to life before their eyes!
Lu Junming was so surprised that his mouth hung open. He really couldn’t imagine how they pulled off this effect in the show.
Placing an immobile rabbit can explain hunting, but how could they possibly control a rabbit to crash into a tree?
Did they get it drunk?
This team is incredible!
Sign, definitely need to sign.
It’s their first live broadcast, and they’ve already attracted this many viewers; the content quality is good too, if they could be poached to our platform, the bonus would be substantial!
A brimming-with-confidence Lu Junming immediately sent over a Super Rocket.
[Streamer, come to our guild, we’ll welcome you with open arms. Without saying anything else, if you signed with our guild, we’d definitely promote you big time, your current results could at least double!]
But just as Lu Junming fantasized about promotion, salary raise, and financial freedom, the mind of Bi Fang, who was standing by, was not on this at all. He picked up the rabbit, stuffed it into his bag, and hurriedly left.
The smell of blood was too strong here, which could easily attract ferocious animals.
Even so, Bi Fang still expressed his thanks to some of the Shuiyou, but the outdoors was not like indoors, and not seeing the barrage of comments was often the norm.
Just like that, Lu Junming was ignored twice in a row.
Of course, even if Bi Fang had known, he wouldn’t have agreed.
Being a streamer on the platform was a partnership, but joining a guild would mean becoming a worker.
Not only would he face restrictions everywhere, but he would even be micromanaged on the content of the live broadcast, wouldn’t that be embarrassing Grandpa De and Bear Grylls?
Ultimately, Bi Fang was confident in his own live broadcast content!
“Damn, does this streamer really think he’s a hotshot?”
Lu Junming, ignored once again, was immediately indignant. The guild’s rewards were meticulously planned, and he couldn’t misappropriate them, so the Super Rocket he just sent was out of his own pocket, and the streamer didn’t even care.
You new streamer, what the hell are you playing at? Without the support of a guild, which streamer could possibly make it big? And how would you win the monthly rankings without us?
Seeing his own 500 bucks go down the drain, Lu Junming instantly panicked and furiously pounded on his keyboard.
[If you don’t join a guild and lose during a competition against our people, don’t blame us!]
[Now, which streamer doesn’t join a guild?]
[Young man, don’t aim too high; the world of streaming is deep and complex, you won’t grasp it!]
[Having good content doesn’t mean you’ll become famous!]
Lu Junming sent barrage after barrage of comments, but instead of stirring anything up, they only annoyed the viewers.
[Alright, cut it out with the guild talk, can’t you see the streamer doesn’t want to deal with you?]
[Thought there was a big spender at first, but turned out to be just a guild rep, bad luck!]
[Wielding a guild account to throw your weight around, who the hell do you think you are?]
[It was just one Super Rocket, right?]
Hey!
Just one Super Rocket?
Why don’t you send one if you’re so capable?
Lu Junming, who was usually hailed as boss, was not used to being treated this way. Just as he was about to snap back, a series of dazzling fireworks blinded him for a moment.
[Lord Mu gifted the streamer 10 Super Rockets*—Get lost fast!]
[Fat Cat Pete gifted the streamer 5 Super Rockets*—Disappear smoothly!]
[So Handsome It Alarms the Party Central Committee gifted the streamer 1 Super Rocket*—Roll out quickly!]
Sixteen treasure chests appeared at once, the onslaught of gifts leaving everyone dazed.
???
Lu Junming, sitting in front of the screen, jumped up like a startled rabbit. He pinched himself hard on the thigh, instantly feeling a painful sting.
Who exactly has the problem?
Him, or the world?
