106 You Can Look, But You Cannot Touch! (1)

“The host is finally streaming!”

“Are you headed straight for the mountains today?”

“Have you already finished investigating the site?”

The moment the livestream started, and due to the constant promotions of the stream by the platform, Luo Feng had 500 thousand concurrent the moment his stream began.

While this could be considered a small figure compared to his follower count, being able to have this many concurrent viewers was something that could only happen of mega streamers.

In addition, Luo Feng’s content was considered to very niche, and as such, the fact that there were foreigners as well as countless of Chinese citizens tuning in was something of great note.

Especially since the stream was geographically restricted to only China, which meant that the foreigners present were those who had resided within the country.

“Chop!”

“Chop!”

“And I’ll chop again!”

Due to it practically being an undeveloped mountain, there were established paths to take in the area.

Fortunately for Luo Feng, he had obtained a Jungle Blade from the system a while back.

With it, he was able to open a path through the thick nest of flora.

A flurry of slashes could be seen as Luo Feng cut open a meter-wide path for both An Peng and Zhang Shunyong to trail behind him.

The Jungle Blade had easily slice off whatever thorn or branches that stood in its way.

For the first time since he had obtained it, Luo Feng had learned of and admired its usefulness.

Although it was heavy, its blade was razor sharp.

“The heck! The host’s chopping knife is quite powerful!”

“What do you mean, chopping knife? This is clearly a machete meant for cutting through the thick foliage and undergrowth of the jungle!”

“It’s so f*cking sharp! Where did the host get it from? Someone, send me a link!”

“I’m sorry, but…” Luo Feng apologized with a pause as he pondered for an excuse, before continuing, “This is a treasured relic passed down from my ancestors. There’s no way for you to purchase it.”

Another hour passed.

And the motley crew had already travelled quite a distance into the mountains.

Feeling that they had already travelled deep enough, he then activated his scanning system.

[ Ding! 25 dots detected! ]

Luo Feng was caught off guard by its success.

This meant that there were 25 treasures within a 3 kilometer radius.

Not bad, not bad.

Since he had already rested for almost two days, Luo Feng decided to dive right into digging without bothering to put up with his usual stalling. He headed straight to one of the marked spots.

[ Ding! You’ve found the Whirling Winds and Flames Blade Technique! ]

[ Simply put, it is a technique in which you unleash a flurry of strikes, almost like a whirlwind! ]

[ When used in a thorny jungle, the speed in which you can clear open a path is increased tenfold! ]

[ When used against human opponents, you will be able to slay a hundred men with little effort! ]

Damn!

A hundred men with little effort?

What am I? Some sort of demon?

Though he harbored doubts regarding the system’s description, he still clicked to learn the technique.

With this, as long as Luo Feng had the Jungle Blade in his hands, Luo Feng would be able to go toe-to-toe against a hundred men.

In an instant, Luo Feng’s mind was flooded with non-existent memories of him practicing swordsmanship.

He picked up the Jungle Blade again, and instantly, he could feel that it was much lighter than before.

[ Ding! You have picked up the Complete Wilderness Cook Book! A must-have resource if you wish to linger and survive outdoors! Upon clicking learn, you will be able to make a 5-star dish out of any ingredient, even motley, gamey material that you find in the wild! Its deliciousness is guaranteed, and you can even use the dishes mastered to woo beauties! ]

“Hot damn!”

“Did the system give me this cook book to survive in the wilderness?”

“Or is it meant for me to pick up girls?”

[ Aren’t all system stories like this? Stop pretending to be virtuous! ]

“….”

Luo Feng was momentarily stunned by the system’s retort, but he quickly recovered and clicked on the wilderness cook book.

He had come prepared with a small pot, some seasonings, as well as soybean oil.

If needed, he would just forage for materials on the spot and make a meal himself.

The mountains had all the resources he required, after all.

Prior to obtaining the cookbook, he had always made sure to prepare dried meat and dehydrated vegetables in his hunts, but now, it seemed that there was no longer a need for those troublesome items.

He could make any game into a delicious dish.

“Host, keep your chin up! I know you’ve spent a million yuan for this permit, so you’d better make it count!”

“You’ve already wasted the first half of the day, and yet, you still found nothing!”

“Since you’re in the mountains, you’re probably looking for natural goods, right? Could it be wild fungi? Or perhaps some exotic shrooms?”

Noticing his viewers’ grumbling, Luo Feng said out loud, “Are you guys under the impression that treasure-hunting is an easy task? Look closely! The road we tread is dangerous, and even as we combat the natural elements, we also need to pay extra close attention to our surroundings so that we won’t miss out on any treasures! Had I known where these treasures are in advance, I would’ve headed straight to them, and not spend time bumbling around like a fool!”

[ … ]

The system was rendered speechless at the hypocrisy of his words.

I’m pretty f*cking sure you already know where the treasures are!

You’re the one who’s voluntarily putting on a show!

“In that case, since we seem to have plenty of time, why don’t you educate us on how you search for treasures, host?”

“Yeah, I’ve always been curious! How did you do it?”

Luo Feng chuckled. “Well, it first depends on the type of treasure you’re looking for. If it’s medicinal herbs you seek, you must be well-educated or have a good amount of knowledge of them beforehand. That way, you could determine if there’s a whole nest of herbs hidden below you if you spotted a certain type of plant, for example. By being able to identify plants at first glance, you will be able to greatly enhanced the efficiency of your search!”

Luo Feng stopped suddenly and pointed to the front. “I’m sure you’re all familiar with this, right? This is a Chinese knotweed! But since its still very small, it likely hasn’t matured yet, and thus, I will be ignoring this spot!”

“Damn! I never knew that there was such a huge difference in our perspectives! Knowledge truly is the best weapon, isn’t it?!”

“Yes, there are plenty of opportunities to make a fortune in this world. All it boils down to is whether or not you have the insight to perceive it!”

“So the host’s good luck actually stems from his vast knowledge?”

“It might be!”

Luo Feng said with a smile, “And that is why, even though treasure hunting may seem simple, you need more than ten years or maybe decades of experience to recognize treasures. Without this insight, you might not recognize one even if it’s lying right in front of you!”

“Moving on to antique treasures, in the same vein as medicinal herbs, you’ll also need to know about the history of the treasures you aim to obtain! Be it officially recorded history or just word-of-mouth rumors, you must not neglect to study any of them! It is through thorough revision of these historical materials that you will gain the ability to appraise their worth!”
