Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness-Chapter 909 - 905 Danger

Bi Fang ran across the earth with the cheetah, the winds of the Howling Prairie slipping through his fingers, brushing past his ears, and surging towards the unknown distance.

It could head towards the ocean, stirring up millions of tons of currents, or it could reach the desert, creating vast stretches of continuous dunes.

"Whew, that was really dangerous."

Bi Fang propped himself against a large tree with one arm, gasping for air.

The cheetah collapsed on the ground, its lungs heaving violently.

He had taken the cheetah on a steady jog for several kilometers, far away from the dangerous hyena pack, and also away from the mines.

At the edge of his vision, an eagle was spreading its wings and soaring, making the sky itself seem alive.

Unable to hear the piercing screams, even the viewers hiding behind screens without any danger breathed a sigh of relief.

The sudden brutality among the hyenas undoubtedly peeled back a corner of Nature's cruelty once more.

The reason it felt like "once more" was because, following Bi Fang, viewers were always able to see the truths of Nature that ordinary people could hardly glimpse, and they had become used to it.

Majesty and danger had always been the two most critical themes in Bi Fang's livestreams.

Warmth, freedom, beauty, strength, slaughter, savagery, and the primal nature under extreme environments—these were Nature's most authentic labels.

There's no paradise more beautiful than Nature.

Earth and rocks, sand and soil, rivers and grasslands, trees, mist and clouds, light and shadow.

Those creatures flying in the skies, running on the ground, burrowing in the earth.

How could plastic compare to the warmth of wood, the softness of grasslands, or the feeling of stretching your hand into the wind and slowly feeling it caress every inch of your skin?

Even the most restless child could stare at a lake for a long time, waiting quietly for a large fish to disturb the placid surface with a splash.

But it was also incredibly dangerous.

Every action by animals was for the continuance of their genes.

This was not cruelty, but ruthlessness.

It was life, the merciless crushing of Nature, a kind of grand rule and order.

Whenever any life fell into a predicament from which they could not extricate themselves using their own power, they would unleash unimaginable potential, performing behaviors that would be unacceptable under normal circumstances.

Even humans, when faced with difficult situations, wouldn't act much smarter than animals.

Bi Fang reached for the leather pouch at his waist, still feeling a sense of unreality; such good luck really could happen to him.

Night fell.

Bi Fang swallowed his saliva, found a rock to sit on, took out a piece of Flint Stone with both hands, and prepared to light a bonfire.

"For millions of years, humans have always been picking up things and turning them over and over in their hands, their minds conjuring up a series of actions in the hope of making them newer, more useful, or more beautiful."

"Then, suddenly at some point in history, someone thought of something that had never existed before."

"He simplified this complex and hard-to-understand world into a controllable mental model and then conceived a series of actions to integrate these models, thereby creating new items."

"The occurrence of this situation brought profound changes to human history, as the first act of creation and invention completely altered the relationship between humans and the world, and the way humans understood the world."

The flames rose, dispersing the darkness around.

The black and white screen now displayed vivid orange hues, soft skin tones, and the hard brown stone.

Rough branches, sharpened by cutting, were inserted into the loose soil, firmly rooted, lined up in a row.

Bi Fang fed sawdust to the flames and continued, "For the first time, humans realized that they didn't have to submit to the natural world but could live in the world of mental images and could shape our own world based on these designs and personal preferences."

"This was a brand new appearance, created in one fell swoop and incomparably exquisite, like an arm growing out of the body.

And so, a world now as we see it, surrounded by creations, ultimately took shape, with humans striding towards an Eden."

"We've slightly distanced ourselves from the grand rules under which Nature operates."

Half an hour later, Bi Fang lay down in the completed shelter, gazing at the starry sky through the tiny gaps above.

Stars suddenly appeared in the sky, as if one could see layers of mist rising in the Milky Way Galaxy.

While Bi Fang's words plunged everyone into thought, they also couldn't help feeling fortunate for the beauty of life at this moment.

But then, Bi Fang took a sharp turn in his talk.

"However, another terrible consequence followed; tools placed humans at the apex of life but also made them more dangerous."

[What danger?]

[Get to the point.]

Bi Fang did not say directly but instead gave an example, "Chimpanzees and baboons often fight each other when they disagree.

These primates are usually quite serious, and it's not just for fun; they are absolutely capable of killing the other party.

Jane Goodall, a biologist from Central Country, once recorded a troop of chimpanzees that, over some time, attempted to annihilate an adjacent group. In fact, they succeeded."

With tools and the ability to throw precisely, killing another creature undeniably becomes much easier.

"In fact, for those groups that killed members of their own kind, the likelihood of their extinction was greater, while a race that knew restraint and used better methods than murder to settle disputes would have a greater chance of continuing to thrive."

"Although we might not know the reasons for the extinction of some species, history has indeed seen many such groups, like Homo rhodesiensis in East Africa and the Neanderthal.

If they didn't kill others of their own kind, then they would be killed by someone like us."

[Wow, the dark forest law, right?]

[If they aren't of our kind, their hearts must be different; we must take them down (dog's head).]

[With a blade in hand, the urge to kill arises.]

[Survival of the fittest (joking).]

"Jared Diamond said in 'Guns, Germs, and Steel': Until modern times, killing strangers was still a common way of life."

"He said that in New Guinea, when two strangers first met, they would 'spend a lot of time making connections and finding reasons not to slaughter each other', and these are all detailed in his book."

"Even Diamond said that only in the last 7,500 years have humans 'begun to know how to frequently interact with strangers without the purpose of killing each other.'"

[So, when humans are in desperate situations, the intensity of the violence that erupts is even more unbelievable.]

[Isn't this just modern warfare?]

[Meat grinder.]

[World peace is our dream!]

[Go nuclear!]

[Don't go nuclear; we want peace.]

"Alright, that's it for today's live stream. Everyone, get some sleep."

After a lengthy discussion, Bi Fang turned off the live stream.

He sat by the fireside, carefully examining the large pink diamond by the light of the fire, before finally putting it back in his pocket.

Hoping to bring it back intact.
