"Alright! Since you want to come along, then let's go together."
"Going out alone so late at night really feels a bit eerie..."
After thinking for a moment, Chen Fan readily agreed.
It was late at night, and the island was pitch black. Whether you were in the shelter or out on your own, you felt a little scared.
Even Chen Fan was no exception.
After all, he had never explored a deserted island in the middle of the night before.
To say I wasn't scared would be a lie...
Having more people around can give you courage.
"Okay! Is there anything else you need? I'll go pack it up."
Upon hearing Chen Fan's agreement, Liu Feifei immediately said excitedly.
Even in the dead of night in the wilderness, even if they were about to encounter a large feline, they felt exceptionally secure as long as Chen Fan was by their side!
I don't know why, but I just have this feeling in my heart.
"Shoulder the basket on your back, grab the shovel, and let's go..."
Chen Fan then packed up his crossbow and held a machete in his hand.
With his current weapons, he could even take on Hei Xiazi head-on!
Small felines are a piece of cake.
After grabbing all their equipment, the two set off immediately!
The place where the traps were placed is not far from here, and I have traveled back and forth many times, so I am very familiar with the road conditions.
On the pitch-black island, two figures supported each other as they slowly moved forward.
Half an hour later, we finally arrived at the place where the traps were placed.
Chen Fan carefully surveyed his surroundings but found nothing amiss...
There was no smell of blood in the air, indicating that the felines had not yet arrived.
"Chen Fan, has that big cat appeared yet?"
Liu Feifei followed closely behind and cautiously asked.
Because the night was already very dark, and the surrounding vegetation was very dense, she couldn't see anything more than three meters away at all.
"Looks like they haven't arrived yet..."
"Let's check the traps first; we might find something!"
After Chen Fan finished speaking, he continued walking towards the direction where the traps were placed.
If the carnivores haven't come today, then it's very likely that the prey hasn't been eaten yet!
The two quickly located the first trap.
This time the trap was not triggered!
Then I checked the second and the third.
The situation was not optimistic; none of the previous three traps had been triggered, and Chen Fan felt a little disappointed.
However, the two still went to check the remaining three traps.
Fortunately, the fourth trap has been triggered, and there is a dead pheasant hanging on the rope!
The sixth trap was the same; it also resulted in catching a pheasant.
"Great, Chen Fan! We didn't expect to have such good luck tonight."
"With these two pheasants, our food problem for tomorrow is finally solved!"
Liu Feifei said with a happy face, such a harvest was indeed something to be happy about for them who hadn't eaten much chicken for several days.
"Yes, the harvest was indeed quite good..."
"However, we'll use this pheasant to lure prey, so we'll leave it here for now."
Chen Fan did not remove the pheasant from the sixth trap, but left it hanging there.
This is how you attract prey.
More importantly, their goal is now clear: simply wait nearby for the big cat to appear.
"Let's go! Let's find a secluded place."
Chen Fan then began searching for a hiding place.
Before long, they found an ideal hiding place.
It is a rather large shrub with very dense branches and leaves, many of which droop down like willow branches.
This creates a perfect hiding spot.
"Alright, let's hide here for a bit!"
Chen Fan quickly cleared away the weeds around them and then asked Liu Feifei to sit down.
Then Chen Fan went around and found some plants that could repel mosquitoes.
"Come on! Crush these leaves and rub them on your body. This will prevent mosquito bites and also effectively mask the smell we have."
Chen Fan handed a handful of leaves to Liu Feifei, then kept some for himself, crushed them, and applied the juice to his arms and face.
Because there are no campfires here, mosquitoes are rampant.
The fragrance of this plant can repel mosquitoes and insects, and its strong aroma can also mask the odor emanating from their bodies.
Wild animals have an extremely keen sense of smell, and they are now only fifteen meters away from the sixth trap!
If the prey notices, it might alert them.
"Okay, I understand!"
Liu Feifei nodded and then quickly did as instructed.
Chen Fan then cut some leaves from the surrounding area and placed them under the two of them to make the waiting process a little more comfortable.
At this moment, all the viewers in the live stream could see was complete darkness.
Chen Fan and Liu Feifei were completely invisible on the screen...
"Why is there no picture on the screen? It's completely black. Is my phone stuck?"
"Mine too!!"
"These two guys are incredibly bold, going hunting felines in the middle of the night. Are they sure they're not delivering midnight snacks to the felines?"
"This is real wilderness survival! Living in shelters and tents is nothing compared to this."
"Take a closer look, everyone! Who knows, Chen Fan and Liu Feifei might become food for felines tonight."
Wow!! These two young people are really fearless.
...
Although there was no video feed in the live stream at the moment, it was still incredibly lively.
The number of viewers watching the live stream simultaneously was astonishing!
Currently, it ranks second in popularity, with Chen Fan and Liu Feifei having the highest traffic after Wu Jing and He Jianguo.
Time passed by, second by second.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and it was now past 11 p.m.
"You must be tired! Just lie down here and sleep."
"I'll guard it..."
Seeing Liu Feifei yawning repeatedly, Chen Fan spoke gently.
Liu Feifei would usually be asleep by this time, so she must be incredibly sleepy right now.
Chen Fan felt more at ease as long as there were people around him.
"I...I'm not sleepy yet! I'll wait with you."
Liu Feifei immediately shook her head, trying her best to concentrate.
"Alright! If you're sleepy, just go to sleep."
"I'll call you if anything happens..."
Chen Fan smiled and said something, then entered another long wait.
Time passed by, second by second.
Chen Fan didn't know how much time had passed; the waiting always seemed so long, every second felt like torture.
Shhh! Shhh!
Just then, Chen Fan suddenly heard a very faint sound.
The sound was different from the sound of wind blowing through leaves; it was like stepping on dead leaves.
Although the sound was very faint, Chen Fan could hear it clearly.
"They're here..."
Chen Fan spoke to Liu Feifei in a very low voice.
Liu Feifei's nerves tensed instantly, her drowsiness vanished, and she became fully awake.
He stared nervously ahead, barely daring to breathe.
They were afraid that even the slightest loud breathing would scare away their prey!
Chen Fan immediately adjusted his breathing, quickly drew his bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at the pheasant in the trap.
He would pull the trigger without hesitation as soon as the prey appeared.
