Chapter 148: Chapter 146: How Could the Dignified Grassland King Be Bullied by a Fish?!

Jiang Feng encountered his first problem while taking the ducks on a spring outing.

Over twenty little ducks wouldn’t follow him.

"Come on, come over here!"

"Quack quack quack quack quack quack~"

Jiang Feng called out to the little ducks.

The little ducks gathered together, their small heads looking around all over the place, but they didn’t come over.

A few of the little ducks just stared at him, not approaching.

The drone captured this scene, and the netizens couldn’t help but laugh.

[Even the Grassland King has his moments of defeat!]

[Ximeng Grassland King can’t command a few ducks!]

[Ducks: Who is this person? Are we really that familiar with you?]

[Weren’t ducks supposed to follow like sheep do? Why’s it not working?]

[Ducks: I don’t think this person looks trustworthy!]

In the comments section, everyone was gloating.

If Jiang Feng successfully led the ducks away, the netizens could only call it extraordinary.

But when a group of adorable little ducks cautiously watched Jiang Feng, the netizens labeled it amazing!

Animals around Jiang Feng had always been obedient, listening to Jiang Feng’s commands.

But now, he was at a loss dealing with a flock of ducks.

Jiang Feng noticed the little ducks weren’t following, but he wasn’t anxious.

Humans have always been clever.

Jiang Feng remembered he had bought a plush toy for Xiaojin Hua, a slightly larger yellow duck.

Since Xiaojin Hua didn’t like the plush toy, Jiang Feng had stored it in the warehouse.

So, Jiang Feng immediately went to the back storeroom to search.

Before long, he found the slightly worn-out big yellow duck plush toy.

The toy was about the same size as an adult duck.

Jiang Feng tied a rope around the neck of the big yellow duck plush toy, then placed it in front of the ducks, pulling the toy to lead the way.

Sure enough, as he moved forward, the plush toy followed, and the little yellow ducks quickly ran after, all trailing behind the plush toy.

Jiang Feng calmly said:

"Humans are tall; the ducks can only see feet, hence weak following behavior."

"Switch to a lower object, and they follow immediately."

"I’ll take them for some fun by the lake."

Jiang Feng tied the rope to his belt, and the plush toy had little friction, so it didn’t feel heavy at all.

Now, eating meat every day, Jiang Feng needed to ensure his exercise to stay in shape.

Enjoying the spring sunshine, it felt quite nice to stroll on the grass.

Plus, he could take a group of little ducks along.

[The Grassland King is truly clever!]

[This scene is so heartwarming!]

[A model for modern young entrepreneurs!]

[The little ducks never imagined humans to be this cunning.]

Jiang Feng walked out of the pasture onto the grassland.

The little ducks were also walking through the grassland.

The little ducks are quite short; some aren’t even taller than the grass, walking a few steps just to trip and then quickly catching up again.

Jiang Feng walked very slowly, and they could keep up completely.

Jiang Feng glanced back at the twenty-something little yellow ducks and added:

"These ducks were born at the breeding farm, probably never seen water."

"Taking them out now, it does look like a mother duck leading ducklings to the water for the first time during early spring."

"There are lots of videos online where mother ducks lead ducklings across streets or ducklings falling into sewers rescued by people, all on their first water trip."

"More or less like this."

Jiang Feng always acted according to his whims.

He thinks about something and just does it.

Since he thought taking ducks for a lake walk felt nice, he led them to the lake.

On the grassland, ducks walked leisurely in groups.

Their calls were chirpy and hadn’t evolved into "quacks" yet.

Behind, the drone continued to follow.

Seeing the ducks amidst the grass, many bored newcomers to the livestream couldn’t help but stay and watch for a while.

The little ducks ran joyously, irresistibly adorable.

Jiang Feng strolled leisurely on the grassland.

Surrounding grass was dense, roots tightly intertwined, showing no soil.

He walked leisurely for over half an hour, and Jiang Feng caught a glimpse of the lake in the distance.

On this pasture, cattle from the ranch grazed slowly.

The number of cattle was far less than sheep, but there were over 400 of them, an astonishing number.

The drone filmed from above in the distance.

Jiang Feng’s field was more vast and spectacular than the average grassland, with prettier scenery.

Not long after, he arrived at the lake, yet the little ducks still followed the plush toy, seeing the lake but not entering.

Jiang Feng directly shook the rope, tossing the toy onto the water.

Seeing the big yellow duck toy floating on the lake, the little yellow ducks anxiously chirped by the water’s edge, hesitating to enter.

Little ducks always need to overcome fear on their first time in water.

Sometimes even jumping from a bridge directly into a river requires great courage.

[The little ducks don’t dare enter the water!]

[They’re too cute; they’ll surely be tasty once grown up!]

[None dare to go in!]

[Keep it up!]

The netizens saw the little ducks wanting to get into the water but hesitating, and they all sent bullet comments to encourage them.

At this moment, the first little duck walked towards the lake.

As it walked, it found its body starting to float.

Then, it quickly paddled its feet and soon swam right next to the toy.

The other two little ducks saw this and also got into the water.

With the first duck as a demonstration, the other ducks didn’t feel as scared.

Finally, there were three little ducks left, chirping noisily, wanting to go but hesitating. After a moment of hesitation, they all jumped into the lake.

"Not bad, they all went down."

"Let them swim for a while."

"Bring them out a few more times, and they’ll know the way themselves, and they can come to the lake to play on their own."

"Besides, they can find food for themselves and don’t need much feeding from me. They’ll grow fat and plump on their own."

"Just have to be careful only to let them out when grazing. If the grassland isn’t being grazed, and the ducks are out alone, there’s a chance they might get snatched by wolves or eagles."

Jiang Feng stood by the shore, smiling as he spoke.

The scene was quite pleasant.

The little ducks were swimming for the first time and looked very happy on the lake.

They are naturally bonded with lakes and rivers.

However, many rural areas now don’t have rivers, so they can only raise land ducks, and many ducks never get into the water their whole lives.

Jiang Feng sat down by the shore.

The drone captured the scene over the lake from above.

The plush duck floated on the water, unable to sink, and the little ducks followed around it.

The scene was originally very warm.

But just then, something unexpected happened!

Jiang Feng was enjoying the cute swimming scene of the little ducks when suddenly, the lake surface shook.

Next, a giant fish mouth opened, and it swallowed a little duck in one gulp!

Seeing this, the netizens exclaimed in shock:

Holy shit!

Jiang Feng immediately stood up and hurriedly pulled the plush duck back.

The little yellow ducks panicked and followed the plush duck towards the shore.

The huge black fish was lurking below, moving too fast!

Just a moment ago, the lake surface burbled, and a little yellow duck disappeared!

Jiang Feng looked serious, and after pulling back the plush toy, he quickly picked up a big stone nearby.

Seizing the opportunity, he directly threw it at the black fish in the lake water.

"Splash!"

Water splashed everywhere!

But the water blocked most of the impact, and the black fish under the surface remained unharmed.

However, this strike prevented the black fish from swallowing any more little yellow ducks.

The little yellow ducks all scrambled onto the shore.

Jiang Feng said sternly, "It’s a big black fish, the top predator of freshwater fish. If there’s a black fish in a river or lake, it will eat almost anything."

"If its size is big enough, it can even eat adult ducks."

"I didn’t expect this!"

After finishing, Jiang Feng said fiercely:

"Dare to eat my ducks, I’ll definitely stew you!"

"I won’t let you get away!"

In the live stream, the bullet comments exploded.

[Holy shit, I was startled just now, it’s too crazy, the big fish just popped up and the little duck was gone!]

[Carnivorous fish are fierce and very aggressive!]

[My thalassophobia is acting up!]

[I got so scared I threw my phone away and just picked it up!]

[I was so scared I almost performed a five-hit lightning whip combo!]

The little ducks were still shaken, and Jiang Feng didn’t dare let them go back into the water.

But the huge black fish in the lake made Jiang Feng quite unhappy.

He immediately placed an order for a canoe.

Jiang Feng knew that no matter how skilled he was at fishing, it was impossible to catch that big black fish in the lake just by fishing.

He had to use some other means.

He had a fishing plan in mind.

"Just when I have some free time these days, this big black fish comes up on its own!"

"I’m definitely going to stew it!"

"It’s too late today; tomorrow when I go grazing, I’ll try to find it!"

Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the netizens commented again:

[Finding a big black fish in such a large lake? Not that easy!]

[You’d have to drain the lake to have a chance!]

[This kind of lake is connected to rivers through underground currents; it can’t be drained dry!]

[The host is angry, and the consequences are severe!]

[Can I, the mighty Ximeng Grassland King, be bullied by a fish!]

The bullet comments were lively.

Everyone wanted to know how Jiang Feng planned to catch this big black fish.

Capturing a fixed fish in a lake isn’t as hard as finding a needle in a haystack, but it’s almost impossible.

The black fish just briefly surfaced and then submerged, continuing to rule the lake.

Jiang Feng gazed at the lake, deep in thought.
