Chapter 49 -49: There is Spiritual Energy in the Mountains!
“Just follow the road that leads to Korean Village and keep going, I’ll tell you to stop when we get to the place,”
Xu Yang said to the taxi driver, Old Wang.
“Are you going into the mountains? Alone?”
Old Wang asked, looking at Xu Yang’s gear.
“Just taking a round trip.”
Xu Yang responded.
It was early in summer, so it got light early. It was just past seven in the morning, and the sky was already completely bright.
However, there were hardly any cars on the road, to be precise, there were none but theirs.
There are few people heading to the mountain at this hour.
“Stop right here, that’s fine.”
Halfway up a mountain road, Xu Yang asked Old Wang to stop.
“Here?”
Old Wang was a bit puzzled but still stopped the car.
Xu Yang paid the fare and directly walked into the mountains from the side of the road.
Typically, a mountain road winds up one mountain.
It circles a few times, then winds up another mountain.
Some mountains house a few mountain people or hide some radars at dead ends where the roads fork.
Others are deserted, simply having roads that wrap around them.
The mountain Xu Yang chose was like this.
There were no villages, no hidden groups of people, just pure, primitive nature.
He took a drone out of his backpack, turned on the intelligent companion flight mode, and started the live broadcast.
When operating at full efficiency, the drone could work for 20 hours. If it was in sunlight, it could store solar power and extend the work hours by five to six hours.
A two-day broadcast was just about right.
The mountain beside him wasn’t very steep, with a slope of about 40 degrees. It might be difficult for others, but for Xu Yang it was quite easy.
He continued upwards, passing through dense forests.
There were no traces of modernity on the way, the primitive scent of the forest hitting him full force.
The number of viewers in the live stream began to increase.
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
Xu Yang had announced beforehand that starting today, he would be venturing deep into the mountains for two days, live streaming the entire journey.
As a host, he occasionally needed to live stream some activities to keep his audience excited.
Two days deep in the mountains, live streaming the whole time.
This was comparable to Ed Stafford and Bear.
Ed Stafford and Bear were globally famous outdoor survival hosts.
Bear’s specialty was eating everything, saying, “Look at this juicy big bug, it must be rich in the proteins that my body needs,” while popping the bug into his mouth and chewing with a satisfied expression.
Ed Stafford’s specialty was bringing no equipment except for a camera, surviving on an island in just shorts.
He generally had a tough time, hence the saying, “Starved nine meals out of three days with Ed.”
Now, Xu Yang was heading into the mountains for two days, and his drone was live streaming without any crew or assistants.
Everything relied on him alone.
This true outdoor survival attracted a large number of netizens.
The exclusive men’s variety show.
Who wouldn’t shout “Brother Yang” after watching?
[The broadcast has started!]
[He’s really going alone, how fierce!]
[Number one deathwish host, who dares to go into Changbai Mountain alone? He’s really courting death!]
[If I were in this situation surrounded by tigers, black bears, and wild boars, I’d be scared to death!]
[This guy is fierce, undeniable!]
[Go Brother Yang!]
[Brother Yang! Brother Yang!]
Although it was only seven-thirty in the morning, there were already many people in the live stream room.
People kept coming in and going out, and some would leave for a while then click back in to check how Xu Yang was doing.
This broadcast was indeed a hit.
Xu Yang continued upwards, and after a bit of climbing, he took a moment to check the live stream room.
There were over 7540 people watching.
It looked like reaching 10,000+ wasn’t far off.
Xu Yang turned on the microphone and said, “Today, I’m entering a deserted area deep in the mountains.”
“Although it’s called a deep mountain, in terms of the entire Changbai Mountain Range, this mountain isn’t even one thousandth of it.”
“This mountain is somewhat remote. I’m now climbing up, and I have to cross over the mountain peak to reach the mountain body area behind it, where the terrain will be a bit more level, and that’s where the good mountain goods are.”
“I’m about to pass through a dense forest area soon, so the drone will have to fly higher, and you might not be able to see me clearly.”
Xu Yang was very calm.
The trees ahead of him were extremely dense, and he could only pass through between the trunks.
He also had to chop down vines and tall grass between the trees.
At the same time, he had to watch out for poisonous snakes.
Just then, the system’s voice suddenly rang out:
[Detected host has entered a large uninhabited area, the danger level is high, received supply pack*1]
[Supply pack includes: Antiserum Injection*1, goodwill card*1 (effective only against large carnivorous mammals), two tubes of special effectiveness Yunnan Baiyao.]
Hearing the system’s voice, Xu Yang couldn’t help but laugh and felt a bit more relaxed.
The system is thoughtful after all, even including a supply pack.
It’s not that the system is thoughtful, it’s purely because it detected danger and feared for his safety.
Xu Yang had always been like this, just as the people in the village said, it was a miracle the bears didn’t carry him off when he was a child.
Many parents wouldn’t let their children go into the mountains with Xu Yang.
With the supply pack, Xu Yang felt even more confident as he entered the dense forest and pressed on.
The drone flew very high.
The livestream showed a dense expanse of trees, the view completely obscured by thick leaves.
Following the drone’s perspective, viewers could sense someone moving under the leaves.
Only through gaps in the leaves could everyone occasionally see Xu Yang’s figure.
[Old Xu is seriously going all in!]
[It’s really a deserted area, and he went in alone!]
[To be honest, I don’t dare watch, what if he encounters a Northeast Tiger, isn’t he scared at all?]
[If he encounters a Northeast Tiger, just boldly say, ‘Your delivery has arrived.’]
[The more you talk, the more nervous I get!]
The livestream became lively again.
There were plenty of gifts, with big special effects occasionally popping up.
Now that Xu Yang was livestreaming and popularity was high, sometimes he could receive gifts worth four to five thousand yuan a day, netting him over two thousand yuan.
Over a month, the income from gifts could reach over 40,000 yuan.
For him now—a not so wealthy farmer—this extra income was quite significant.
All the way without talking, focused on climbing the mountain.
After nearly two hours, Xu Yang finally emerged from the dense forest.
He was close to reaching the ridge, beyond which he would enter the deeper mountain area.
“Finally out!”
Xu Yang exclaimed.
The drone’s perspective focused on him immediately.
One could only see branches with leaves stuck in Xu Yang’s backpack, signs of friction on his clothes, some green grass clippings on his pants, and also on his shoes.
The hardship involved was imaginable.
[The host finally showed up!]
[I thought he turned invisible just now!]
[Welcome to Calabash Brothers’ sixth brother’s livestream!]
[He made it through! Impressive!]
The audience cheered excitedly.
Having just climbed through the dense forest, Xu Yang was somewhat tired; he found a clearing, set down his backpack, and sat on the ground.
He took out some beef jerky, ate a couple of pieces, and drank some water.
Xu Yang chatted with the viewers:
“I don’t know if you can feel it, but this mountain feels lifeless and lacks spiritual energy.”
On hearing his words, everyone was slightly taken aback.
Lifeless?
Lacking spiritual energy?
The whole way here, there had been bird songs and insect chirps, and the plants were lush.
But now that Xu Yang mentioned it, the viewers indeed felt that the mountain seemed silent, as if it were just a green mountain, as ordinary as could be.
It was a feeling.
[Could it be due to the lack of water? There are no rivers or waterfalls on the mountain.]
[It does feel a bit dry!]
[You say it so mysteriously!]
[I just had a strange feeling, exactly what the host described, how did you discover it!]
People responded one after another.
Xu Yang stood up, smiled, and said:
“Actually, the method to judge is very simple, our ancestors have already figured it out for us.”
“Simply put, to see if a mountain has spiritual energy, just look if the mountain has any temples or Taoist monasteries.”
“Any mountain with sufficient spiritual energy will definitely have temples and monasteries, their means of selecting places are incredibly sharp.”
“At the very least, there should be a Mountain God Temple.”
“And the mountain I’ve climbed, or this mountaintop, has absolutely no temples and no Mountain God Temples to worship at, which means it lacks spiritual energy.”
“You can all feel it, it really is so.”
“Some things in metaphysics are still worth believing.”
“I won’t rush the mountain here, I’m just passing through to head deeper into the mountain area.”
“That’s where my goal lies!”
Xu Yang packed up the wrapper from the beef jerky, stood up, and dusted off his hands.
Then, he shouldered his backpack and continued to push forward.
