Chapter 31 (1/2)
Ning Fei’s webcast room was trending.
Some passionate fans — or as they were commonly referred to as, “natural organic water” — were the ones who promoted their favorite webcaster willingly.
This was often seen in real life too. For instance, someone had watched a really good movie or heard a song. That person would naturally recommend it to their friends or promote it on their social media platform.
Thus, on popular social media platforms such as Douyin or Weibo, many of Ning Fei’s supporters had edited his livestreams into videos and circulated them online.
‘Webcaster unearthing a 3,000,000-yuan blood lingzhi!’
‘Such a good-looking webcaster doing a menial chore?’
‘3,000,000-yuan daily income! The attraction of outdoor expeditions!’
‘Witness a rare plant that only blooms every one hundred years!’
‘Outdoor webcaster met a black bear and made a swift escape!’
Ning Fei’s video clips were being circulated extensively by his supporters and some of the media.
There was an intense debate online.
A handful of them were skeptical.
‘All that money? A lingzhi for 3,000,000 yuan?! It has to be a joke!’
Although they didn’t believe it, they still watched it.
After watching the first one, they couldn’t resist and continued watching the rest.
In their hearts, they came to a conclusion.
‘F*ck! It’s real!’
These video clips trended, and their comments exceeded 10,000 in number in an hour.
‘For real? That plant is worth 3,000,000 yuan?’
‘Where is that place? I want to go too.’
‘Forget it. You can only go there on foot, and it takes at least a few hours. Normal people who tried that either have a death wish or like tempting fate.’
‘This webcaster knows so much about plants. Very professional!’
‘So good-looking and cute!’
‘If you’re handsome, anything you do is right.’
Feelings of envy, jealousy, astonishment, awe, and admiration were all cast at Ning Fei.
Ning Fei gathered some wild mushrooms and fruits and then returned to the tent.
He began to train his pet.
The usual method was to use food. The trainer had to eliminate the bird’s fear of humans before using food to lure them.
But Ning Fei had no intention of doing that. He wanted Little Falcon to grow up on its own.
Ning Fei held Little Falcon in his hand as it peered at Ning Fei with its head tilted.
At the next moment, Ning Fei flung Little Falcon up into the air.
Little Falcon was flustered as it screeched and squawked. It flapped its wings with all its might as it tried to make use of the buoyancy effect produced by the circulating air to fight gravity.
However, it was just too tiny and young. Its feathers were newly grown, so it couldn’t quite fly yet.
As it was becoming anxious and desperate, Ning Fei caught it when it fell.
Little Falcon was angry as it screeched noisily at Ning Fei. But the next second, Ning Fei had thrown it up into the air once again.
Training and toughening a chick needed time.
‘This webcaster is cruel!’
‘Little Falcon is so small. Why is he forcing it to fly?’
‘Look at how unwilling Little Falcon is.’
‘Little Falcon is too young. How could you do that?’
Many people began to berate Ning Fei for his actions.
Ning Fei did not answer nor reply.
Now that Little Falcon was growing, it was the perfect time to train it.
Ning Fei didn’t reply to the comments and continued to train Little Falcon. Then he rewarded it with some food.
Little Falcon gobbled up the food instantly. Perhaps it was because of the bird feed he had obtained from the lucky draw that Little Falcon had grown quickly.
