Leisurely Life: I Have Ten Thousand Acres of Grassland
Chapter 173 - 171: Wild Wolf Valley, Playful Wolf Cubs!
The next day, Jiang Feng took the little ones to the filming location of Wolf Totem and then headed straight for Wild Wolf Valley.
He held a leash in his hand, with the Border Collie, White Wolf, and Mongolian Mastiff all on the same rope.
Thanks to the dogs as role models, the White Wolf happily accepted wearing the leash.
The filming location of Wolf Totem is a courtyard full of vintage charm, mainly for tourists to take photos and check in.
On the red-brick house were big characters like "Cinema" and "Supply and Marketing Cooperative," exuding an old-fashioned atmosphere.
Some people were taking photos there, but Jiang Feng wasn’t very interested, so he went straight to Wild Wolf Valley.
Wild Wolf Valley is also a large grassland, and the park offers horse-led photo services.
Nearby, some tourists were leisurely walking horses on the grassland, while friends took photos of them, amidst cheers.
Not long after Jiang Feng got out of the car, he started a live stream and walked inside.
At that moment, an old man doing photography business approached Jiang Feng and said:
"Young man, want a photo with a horse? It’s thirty bucks a shot, no limit on the number of photos."
"It’s rare to visit the grasslands, you gotta take a few photos."
Hearing this, Jiang Feng smiled and replied:
"No need, I have horses at home."
The old man added:
"This vast grassland matches the horses well, no outside ranch can create this effect."
Jiang Feng, a bit amused, replied, "I have grasslands at home too."
Netizens, upon hearing their conversation, burst into laughter.
[Hahaha, someone actually tried to charge the owner for photos with a horse?]
[Old man, he’s a guy with over twenty horses and a couple of Little Donkeys!]
[The old man might’ve found the wrong target!]
Just then, the old man noticed among the dogs Jiang Feng was holding a white wolf.
The old man said tremblingly:
"Young man, is that a wolf?"
Jiang Feng nodded, "Yes, White Wolf, I’ve raised it since childhood."
A glint of amazement appeared in the old man’s eyes.
"It’s truly a White Wolf! There aren’t any in Wild Wolf Valley!"
Jiang Feng looked towards the distant grassland and inquired:
"Can you usually see wolves in Wild Wolf Valley?"
"You can check from the viewing platform. Wolves rarely come out, occasionally howl a bit; they’re hard to spot."
"Okay, thank you."
Jiang Feng continued walking in with the little ones.
This area of grassland is specifically planted with many small ornamental flowers, forming expanses of purple flower seas.
Many couples and friends are here checking in and taking photos.
At this moment, travel blogger Chen Jiajia was taking photos of her friend Zhao Xiaoyue.
She lifted her phone, looking at the screen.
Just then, behind Zhao Xiaoyue appeared a handsome guy leading some dogs, and Chen Jiajia’s phone camera followed him to the left.
Seeing the camera drift, Zhao Xiaoyue quickly said:
"Hey, what are you shooting? Why did you go over there?"
Chen Jiajia checked her phone, then looked up at Jiang Feng not far away.
"Behind you, I think it’s Jiang Feng!" Chen Jiajia pointed behind, alerting her.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoyue turned around and looked back.
At this moment, Jiang Feng was in casual shorts and a T-shirt, leading several dogs, exuding an indescribable sense of leisure and ease.
"It really is him!"
Zhao Xiaoyue exclaimed.
The two quickly ran over to ask Jiang Feng for a photo together.
Jiang Feng readily agreed.
Other tourists, having noticed Jiang Feng, also came over for photos.
Gradually, more and more people gathered around Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng continued to move forward while taking photos with tourists who asked.
Everyone was considerate, only taking a simple photo and not troubling Jiang Feng excessively.
Soon, Jiang Feng arrived at the viewing platform of Wild Wolf Valley.
He stood by the wooden railing, gazing over the grassland below.
The scenery was beautiful, but no wolves were in sight.
About twenty tourists waited there to take photos.
"Can you see wolves here?"
Some new tourists asked those taking photos.
"I’ve been here for three hours, haven’t seen wolves anywhere, just want a glimpse!"
Answered one of the men.
"Why call it Wild Wolf Valley if there are no wolves?"
"This is the wild, not a zoo; whether wild animals show up depends on their mood."
"I came a few days ago and didn’t see wolves all afternoon, returned again this time, still no wolves."
People looked out into the distance.
Obviously, everyone wanted to see real wolves in the wild.
Especially as the scenery below was stunning and the grass luxuriant, making it even more enticing.
Jiang Feng also looked below.
Just then, the Little White Wolf he was holding suddenly noticed something.
Then, the Little White Wolf tilted its head back and let out a melodious howl.
"Ah-ooo~~~~~"
The howl echoed over the grassland.
Tourists around were startled and turned their heads to look.
"That’s truly a wolf, I thought it was a Czechoslovakian Wolfdog!"
"It’s the White Wolf raised by that grassland influencer!"
"There are wolves here, film this!"
Just as tourists were puzzled, a howl of wolves echoed from deep within the Wild Wolf Valley grassland.
Their companions were responding to the White Wolf.
This place is the setting for Wolf Totem and a sanctuary for wild wolves.
Though the number of wild wolves isn’t high, it’s enough to amaze people.
Soon, one wolf after another emerged from deep within the grassland.
Seeing this scene, the tourists erupted in cheers.
"Quick, look over there, there are wolves, the wolves are coming!"
"There really are wolves!"
"The wolves have come out!"
A total of six wolves arrived, each running alone among the tall wild grass.
They were all heading towards the White Wolf.
The White Wolf stood on the viewing platform, gazing excitedly at the wolves below.
Several wolves in the Wild Wolf Valley responded to the White Wolf’s howling.
The White Wolf excitedly howled back in response.
Jiang Feng noticed the White Wolf wanted to go down and play with the Wild Wolf Valley wolves.
This side is the tourist area, and outside the railing is the grassland.
Jiang Feng untied the rope from the White Wolf, letting it run into the grassland.
The White Wolf immediately ran out, delighted.
Seeing the White Wolf appear, several wolves from the Wild Wolf Valley gathered around.
In this era, the number of wild wolves on the grassland is decreasing.
So, they cherish each other greatly.
Seeing the wolf pack on the grassland, Xiaojin Hua turned to Jiang Feng, indicating she wanted to go too.
Jiang Feng patted her head, "You better not go, you never know what these wild wolves are like."
Xiaojin Hua had to lie down quietly.
On the viewing platform, tourists eagerly recorded the wolves playing in the wild grass.
These wolves look much like dogs, displaying a kind of clumsy appearance.
They ran and chased through the grass, innocent and playful.
Jiang Feng, seeing the White Wolf so happy, couldn’t help but smile.
Viewers in the livestream couldn’t help but comment:
[Wherever the host goes, it’s a scene!] 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
[Such cute wild wolves, I thought wolves were scary!]
[On this beautiful grassland, the wolves seem quite tame!]
[Don’t misunderstand, in the Tibetan Area, wild wolves are indeed formidable!]
In this Wild Wolf Valley, due to abundant food, there isn’t talk of a Wolf King or wolf packs; it’s just a few wolves.
However, Jiang Feng noticed that after approaching the White Wolf, these wild wolves lay on the ground, belly up, seemingly to please.
The White Wolf now exudes an impressive, regal aura.
This fellow is usually quite aloof.
According to Jiang Feng’s experience, wolves raised by humans generally resemble the Siberian Husky, affectionate towards humans.
But the White Wolf is never like this.
Although it comes when Jiang Feng calls, it rarely acts adorably on its own.
"Xiao Yue’s personality is quite unique, yet this makes it even more charming, adding points to its appeal," Jiang Feng said, smiling.
Then, Jiang Feng watched the White Wolf play from the viewing platform.
To be honest, the scenery on this trip was beautiful, but for someone like him used to the grassland, it wasn’t as captivating.
He’d rather the little guys enjoy themselves more.
Soon, people from the tourist area came to check on the Little White Wolf.
Not only was everything fine, but tourists were exuberant, and the staff was relieved.
They even asked Jiang Feng if the White Wolf could be rented for a period.
Jiang Feng naturally refused outright.
Just like that, the White Wolf played with the Wild Wolf Valley wolves for about an hour, sensing it’s time, it glanced at Jiang Feng and ran back voluntarily.
Jiang Feng lifted it back over the railing, tying the rope again.
Then, Jiang Feng led the little ones out of Wild Wolf Valley.
The White Wolf was very happy, resting in the back seat.
Xiaojin Hua still poked her head out, smiling delightedly as she looked outside the window.
The Mongolian Mastiff leaned against the back window; its expression seemed a bit blank, but these mastiffs tend to be like that and mature handsomely.
The car sped towards the distance.
The scenery remained splendid.
Before long, they came across another grassland with orange flowers blooming.
"This is Jinlianchuan Grassland, named after the Golden Lotus, known particularly for its dense fog, with mist enveloping the flowers in the morning."
"The atmosphere of seeing flowers through the mist is excellent."
Jiang Feng continued to explain the grassland’s scenery to everyone.
[I didn’t know grasslands had so many names and styles; I thought it was just green grass!]
[Driving all day, it’s been gorgeous grassland all the way; this grassland is huge!]
[Used to think the host’s thirty-four thousand acres of grassland was massive, but seeing the grassland outside, I realize thirty thousand acres isn’t much at all!]
[The vast grassland is spectacular; still haven’t seen its edge!]
[How many cattle and sheep could thrive here, no wonder they say Huaxia is vast and resourceful; seeing for oneself really makes one appreciate it!]
Through Jiang Feng’s livestream, viewers witnessed the motherland’s magnificent landscapes and the endless expanses of grassland.
More and more people became interested in the grassland.
It coincided with the grassland’s tourist season.
Because of Jiang Feng’s livestream, Ximeng League’s tourism popularity began to rapidly rise.
