I Am A Prodigy

Chapter 580 tiger roar in the fores

The crab was quite big. It waved its pincers around with utmost dominance, causing Hao Yun and Dong Miaomiao to be afraid of catching it. They could only watch and cheer.

In the end, they still needed Ye Lingchen to act.

Ye Lingchen extended his hand steadily, but not too fast. From the two girls’ perspective, he did not spend much effort and the crab was already in his hand.

“Wow, you’re amazing!”

“Hehe, we’ll have crabs for dinner tonight.”

The two girls screamed in astonishment. They were from the city and had never experienced the forest before, let alone catching crabs in the stream. Now that they had the chance to flip through rocks for crabs, it was extremely entertaining for them.

“Haha, look, I’ve got another one!”

In less than five minutes, Ye Lingchen caught another big crab in his palm. He suddenly had a mischievous thought and brought the crab near them.

“Ahh, God Ye, you meanie. Take that away!”

“Director Ye, stay away from me. No!”

The two girls screamed as they ran while Ye Lingchen was laughing maniacally. He could not help but recall his life back in the village.

Eventually, the two girls grew braver and started to learn from Ye Lingchen.

“Ah, look! I’ve caught one too!”

Right then, Hao Yun exclaimed loudly after catching another crab. Although she started with screams of enthusiasm, it quickly turned into one of misery, heaving deep breaths. “Ouchies, help! God Ye help me! The crab is pinching me.”

Ye Lingchen ran over to have a look, feeling amused. The crab in Hao Yun’s hand was just a small crab the size of a fingernail.

“Truth be told, I’ve never seen such a small crab all my life. More importantly, someone’s actually afraid of it. Hahaha...”

“Stop gloating over my misery. Shut it and get it off quickly. Do you think I’m as thick-skinned as you? Ouch...”

Hao Yun’s face went pale from the scare.

Ye Lingchen smiled, then placed her hand in the stream while telling her, “If you’re pinched by a crab, just place your hand in the water and stay still. They’ll naturally let go.”

As expected, the little crab released its pincer and tried to escape. Hao Yun then shouted again, “Get it!”

Ye Lingchen easily caught the crab in his hand, then passed it to Hao Yun. She played with it excitedly for a while before letting it go.

By then, Little Grey and Little Green came back with a bucket each. The two wolves tacitly stood around to stand guard, perking their ears and scouted around vigilantly.

After playing around for another 30 minutes, they were all happy with their spoils, having netted around seven crabs and nine craps over a kilogram. They had also caught quite a few smaller carps and crabs but decided to let them go.

This round was considered a good haul.

“YES!”

The two girls high fived excitedly as they got out of the water. They had already turned into besties over the short period.

After staying in the city for so long, the simple and fulfilling life of the village was longed after by many as it could bring them a great sense of satisfaction and happiness.

“God Ye, you’re just too amazing. It felt like you’ve hardly put in any effort but you’ve got so many carps easily,” Hao Yun stated.

Dong Miaomiao nodded along. “Yeah. I originally got three, but one ran away. Director Ye is superb at catching fish.”

“You guys are considered quite good to be able to catch a carp on the first try. Moreover, these crabs are mostly found by both of you,” Ye Lingchen replied with a laugh.

If he put himself into it, he was afraid the two girls would not be as happy as they were since the game would turn extremely boring. The carps would have to be calculated by the ton.

Ye Lingchen managed to stroke the two girl’s ego, immediately bringing about some giggles from them.

“Let’s come again next time.”

“Mm, it’s so much fun! Next time I’ll definitely catch more.”

The two girls giggled as they chatted away.

It was still early, so the three of them rested before continuing their journey. This time, it was Little Green and Little Grey that led the party at the forefront. The journey became a lot more relaxed.

They spotted a few wild games along the way and plenty of wild vegetables, amaranths, wild garlic, and eagle fern, which Ye Lingchen conveniently picked. Previously he had nowhere to place them. This time, he had a bucket.

These wild vegetables were worth quite a bit of money. It was impossible to find them in cities. Eagle fern, for example, had the title ‘King of Wild Vegetables’ as it contained a specific compound that would suppress bacteria. It could help alleviate fever, gassy stomach, heatiness, and rashes. It had a very good cooling and detoxifying effect, allowing it to kill germs and clear inflammation.

How should he put it...the entire hill was filled with treasures?

‘From now on, this entire treasure hill will be mine.’ Ye Lingchen thought smugly.

When they were almost at the peak, the three finally found the source of the stream. Further up was a mirror-like lake that was just above their heads.

Coming across it so suddenly, all three of them were stunned by the magnificent view.

Looking ahead, the shimmering lights on the wide water surface dazzled. It was surrounded by colorful waterfowls and decorated by the green hills all around. They could not help but be awestruck.

The huge lake was like a mirror for the sky, reflecting it in its entirety.

The two girls were obviously well-traveled, but never once were they so awestruck by such a natural phenomenon. Even the waters of Jiuzhai Valley did not match its grandeur and magnificence.

“Ah—”

Hao Yun put her hands together and shouted at the lake. Her voice echoed around the valley, ever lingering...

“Ah—”

Dong Miaomiao took a deep breath and shouted similarly, letting out all her stress she had bottled up within her. After that shout, she felt extraordinarily relaxed.

Situated between the green hills and clear waters, it made them feel a lot freer.

The trip was totally worth it.

“Director Ye, I didn’t expect the hills of this island to be so pristine. It’s a paradise that helps us fully relax,” Dong Miaomiao lamented sincerely.

“If you want to come again, just bring Little Green and Little Grey along. They’ll be more than enough to protect you guys.” Ye Lingchen laughed. “It’s getting late now. There are still more places to explore. Find a chance and I’ll bring you along to hunt for wild rabbits and check out what other beasts may be in the deeper regions of the forest.”

“Mmm.” The two girls nodded repeatedly.

Ye Lingchen looked into the distance. That was definitely a paradise for the animal, a natural holy ground. It could be made into a safari’s scenic spot. However, the travel route and management had to be done properly in order to prevent disturbing the natural habitat of the region.

They could choose a tram, then have it travel along a preset path. Getting off the tram would be forbidden as they were only allowed to view.

Around the area, they could add on other entertainment activities.For example, fishing. That was a leisure activity loved by many. He could have the theme revolve around rural tourism.

Free and easy. That would definitely be the dream of many.

“Roar!”

Right then, a bestial roar could be heard. Its call shook the heavens, carrying with it an aura that would dominate all other animals.

A tiger’s roar filled the forest. Even the winds in the forest seemed to turn razor sharp.

“I-i-it’s a tiger?” Hao Yun’s body froze. Even her voice began to tremble.

“The roar seems to be quite near us. Is it possible that our shout spooked it?” Dong Miaomiao’s face turned pale, feeling too scared to even move.

‘OMG, there’s no need to wait for next time. It seems we’ll get to meet the real beast right now...’
