The sky collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, I found myself transported to Nanluoguxiang.

Along the way, Li Kaixin avoided all places where there might be people, and arrived at the Changbai Mountain area again.

Looking at the lingering white mist before him, Li Kaixin walked in without hesitation.

Now, Li Kaixin's condition is completely different from yesterday. Yesterday, with Zhao Laosi leading the way, he was more familiar with the environment, but he unexpectedly encountered a pack of wolves.

Today was clearly different; Li Kaixin's goal was to grab some local specialties from Northeast China and take them back with him.

When we reached a sheltered mountain hollow, the trees ahead became noticeably denser.

Li Kaixin immediately stopped in his tracks, and with a thought, his figure disappeared from the spot and entered the secret realm.

She quickly gathered some insect-repelling herbs that she had specially planted in the secret realm. She rubbed them in her hands to form clumps dripping with herbal juice and carefully applied them to exposed skin and the seams of her clothing.

When the figure carrying the gun reappeared in the ravine, Li Kaixin did not immediately move forward.

Instead, he first scanned his surroundings and chose a uniquely shaped, crooked pine tree, carving a clear arrow mark in an inconspicuous spot on the trunk.

Although Li Kaixin has a strong memory, most places in this dense forest look the same, and getting lost would be no joke, so he still has to be careful, after all, his life is always the most important thing.

After making all the preparations, Li Kaixin chose to step onto a path where the vegetation had never been trampled.

Every so often, Li Kaixin would choose a suitable spot and leave a mark that only he could clearly recognize.

Perhaps it's because this road has never been traveled before, or perhaps there are just too many things in Changbai Mountain in Northeast China, but we've only been walking for a short while.

They discovered a large number of wild walnut trees, their grounds covered with fallen walnuts.

Li Kaixin also understood why they hadn't gained anything yesterday. It was because the route Zhao Laosi led them on was one they frequently took, and anything they found would have been taken long ago.

Without much thought, Li Kaixin excitedly stepped forward and used the secret realm space to retrieve the items. Afterward, only bare ground remained.

I just finished harvesting wild walnuts, and I'll take a walk for a bit.

I saw countless pine cones, and the pine nuts inside were all plump and full.

At the same time, Li Kaixin also found a number of good-quality Ganoderma lucidum mushrooms on some rotten fallen logs.

Li Kaixin accepted all comers and took them all into the secret realm space.

This forest on Changbai Mountain is now like a natural treasure trove for Li Kaixin, with an endless supply of food.

In just a short while, the walnuts and pine cones had probably weighed a thousand or two thousand catties.

The joy of the harvest, along with the barely perceptible confidence that had grown after yesterday's fierce battle with the wolf pack, was quietly eroding Li Kaixin's necessary vigilance, making him a little overconfident.

However, as Li Kaixin bent down again, enthusiastically picking up a few pine cones, a dramatic change occurred.

A small section of what appeared to be a flat patch of grass suddenly collapsed underfoot.

Immediately afterwards, a buzzing sound suddenly rang out.

Holy crap!

Li Kaixin's scalp tingled instantly. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw dozens of huge hornets surging out of the collapsed burrow, and several of them had already landed on Li Kaixin's head.

Forget about the pine cones, it was almost an instinctive reaction. He sprang up, not caring about anything else, and didn't even have time to react and hide in the secret space. He took off and ran frantically in one direction.

Even though Li Kaixin reacted quickly, far faster than ordinary people, he still felt a sharp, intense pain in his forehead!

"hiss!"

Li Kaixin gasped in pain, but dared not stop running. The buzzing sound behind him gradually subsided after he had run another hundred meters or so.

Leaning against a large tree, he gasped for breath, still shaken. The spot on his forehead where he had been stung had swelled up rapidly, sending waves of burning pain and numbness through him; he was still filled with lingering fear.

Fortunately, I was only stung once. If I had been surrounded by those crazed hornets and stung a few more times, I probably would have really gone to see my great-grandmother.

This sudden encounter was like a bucket of ice water, waking Li Kaixin up and reminding him that he should always maintain due respect for nature.

Li Kaixin suddenly realized that what the inheritance of the god-level hunters gave him was only rich knowledge and skillful techniques, but not a foolproof talisman.

Nature's dangers are everywhere, often lurking in the most unexpected corners. Any moment of carelessness can lead to a terrible price.

Having survived this ordeal, Li Kaixin's mindset finally changed. He no longer had the arrogance he once had towards the jungle, and his eyes became sharp.

I carefully treated the wound from the hornet sting, chewed some antidote herbs, and applied them.

When they set off again, Li Kaixin was more cautious in every move. His eyes scanned the surroundings like those of a hawk, no longer just looking for prey, but also being wary of the dangers lurking beneath his feet.

About an hour or two passed.

Li Kaixin stopped in her tracks, her brows furrowing slightly.

After walking for so long, apart from the plants, we hadn't found even a trace of fresh animal droppings or footprints. This aimless search was far too inefficient.

After a moment's hesitation, I decided to use the old method and go to a place with a water source.

Relying on the experience and knowledge of a god-level hunter in his mind, he carefully discerned the undulations of the terrain, the subtle changes in humidity in the air, and the distribution of certain moisture-loving plants.

Soon, a clear stream came into view.

Li Kaixin perked up and began to swim upstream along the stream.

Sure enough, they hadn't gone far when their first big find of the day appeared: a huge sika deer was drinking water leisurely by a blue stone in the stream, its head bowed.

Li Kaixin immediately held his breath, crouched down, and, using the rocks and bushes on the shore as cover, slowly approached until he was within optimal firing range.

"Bang!"

The deer fell to the ground without even having a chance to utter a cry of pain.

Li Kaixin stepped forward and examined it. It was a male deer, quite large, and he estimated it to weigh around 100 kilograms.

Satisfied, he stored this first decent prey in his secret realm.

Following this method, the subsequent hunt went much more smoothly.

Li Kaixin continued exploring upstream along the stream.

With his accurate marksmanship and ability to navigate secret realms, Li Kaixin acquired a 60-pound doe and two large and three small wild boars weighing a total of over 700 pounds.

In addition, two bullets were used to shoot down two birds that resembled pheasants but had special bands of feathers around their necks in a clearing in the woods.

Upon closer inspection, based on fragmented memories from my past life, I was pleasantly surprised to recognize that they were flying dragons, known as "dragon meat from the heavens" in Northeast China, and the two of them weighed about 8 pounds in total.

Thinking about how delicious the flying dragon was described online in my previous life, I thought it would be perfect to bring it back and share it with my family.

When the sun was directly overhead, Li Kaixin stopped and rubbed his rumbling stomach.

I figured it was time to find a place, light a fire, and have a meal.
