Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 277 The Moment of Life and Death
At the same time, Gu Bei added, "Since we're already here!"

Come all come!

One of the four great virtues of tolerance in China.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei couldn't help but roll her eyes at Gu Bei.

It's not that she can't afford to spend her money, it's just that she thinks it's too expensive.

The two waited for a while before the person who came to pick them up arrived.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Gu and Ms. Liu, our flight was delayed due to some issues."

Under guidance,
Gu Bei and Liu Yifei entered another area of ​​the airport and were taken onto a small fixed-wing aircraft.

Apart from the captain and first officer, there were only two passengers and one person who came to pick them up on the plane, making a total of five people.

Gu Bei could even see the captain and co-pilot operating the plane with his own eyes, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Liu Yifei was very excited.

She watched the captain maneuver the plane for takeoff: "This doesn't seem too difficult, does it? Gu Bei, what do you think about me learning how to fly a plane?"

"not so good!"

Gu Bei said with some resistance.

Liu Yifei was a little puzzled, as Gu Bei was never one to spoil the fun.

Then, she turned around and saw Gu Bei's uneasy expression, and a hint of amusement appeared on her face: "Gu Bei, are you scared?"

"a little bit."

Gu Bei admitted it without the slightest embarrassment.

He only learned during a future WeChat Moments RIP event that the accident probability of these small planes is far greater than that of large planes, by nearly twenty times.

Ultimately, even the packaging of iced tea became one of the most ridiculous jokes ever.

"Then let me lean on you!"

Liu Yifei originally wanted to tease Gu Bei,
Seeing Gu Bei admit it so readily, she felt a little embarrassed, so she offered her shoulder to Gu Bei, hoping to ease his mind.

Gu Bei looked around the plane. Small planes have their advantages too; the only real passengers on the entire plane were the two of them.

He didn't need to care about other people's opinions, so he leaned closer to Liu Yifei.

The plane just happened to experience a slight turbulence.

then……

Where are you leaning against?!

Liu Yifei's face immediately turned bright red.

She nudged Gu Bei, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes glaring at him fiercely: "Durian Mango!"

She made up her mind that she would never believe Gu Bei's nonsense again!

"Look over there!"

Gu Bei pointed to the side.

Without the slightest hesitation, Liu Yifei followed Gu Bei's finger and looked in that direction.

Where is it?
Just when Liu Yifei thought she had been tricked by Gu Bei again,
A gap appeared in the clouds, and a snow-capped peak, shimmering in the sunlight, came into view before Liu Yifei's eyes.

The year-round snow is like a crown set atop the volcano, while the cold, gray-black mountain body resembles a pair of giant hands supporting the sacred snow-capped peak.
The pure white clouds swirling around the mountaintop create a striking contrast with the exposed rocks, as if they represent the boundary between heaven and earth.

"That's Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa, and the icy crown on the equator!"

Gu Bei's voice rang in Liu Yifei's ear.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but exclaim, "So beautiful!"

Gu Bei nodded: "Indeed, this is the most romantic equatorial spectacle!"

After passing Mount Kilimanjaro
They soon arrived at their destination—the Serengeti plains.

This is the starting point of the Great Migration of animals in East Africa, and also the last vast home for wild animals on Earth.

Every year when the grass on the Lengeti plains is gradually depleted, herbivores are forced to embark on a massive migration.

Millions of wildebeest, zebras, and hundreds of thousands of gazelles make them a must-see on countless people's bucket lists.

"That's so unreliable!"

Gu Bei watched the small fixed-wing aircraft that had just flown away.

There's no airport here, not even a runway.
There was only one dirt road, barren of vegetation due to numerous plane flights.

With such unreliable landing and takeoff points, you never know when something might happen. Unfortunately, this is the only mode of transportation available in East Africa; there simply aren't enough large aircraft or flights to choose from.

A short while later, a jeep from the luxury campsite picked up the two from their landing site and took them to the hotel.

"I feel like I've stepped into the filming location of The Lion King. The scenery here is so similar to the scenery in The Lion King!"

Liu Yifei kept looking around the whole way.

The vastness of the world made her feel like she didn't know where to look.

"You can ask the director, Rob Minkoff. Isn't he the director of The Lion King?"

Gu Bei suggested with a smile.

This place is inherently one of the most distinctive areas in East Africa.

In terms of resemblance, the live-action Lion King is even more accurate; it's practically a one-to-one replica of the scenery here.

"That makes sense!"

Liu Yifei quickly took out her phone and contacted Rob Minkoff, the director of The King of Kung Fu and also the director of the animated film The Lion King.

Shortly after, she received a reply from Rob Minkoff: "Director Minkoff said he had never been here, but had only referred to a series of video materials that Disney had given him."

After a pause, Liu Yifei excitedly said, "However... Director Minkoff said that Disney brought several real lions to the animation studio so they could have close contact with them."
Can we also have close contact with lions?

When Gu Bei saw Liu Yifei's expectant eyes, he felt a throbbing in his temple. This girl was really too bold!

Before he could speak,
The driver smiled and said, "Miss, I'm afraid that won't work."

The lions here aren't like the lions in the circus; they all hunt their own prey from cubs and they eat people!

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei shrank back.

She's not a fool.

What's dangerous, and what's not dangerous?

She still knows!

Even though her current physique score is as high as 92 points, it is only 92 points for a human female. She still cannot compete with a lion, the king of Africa and a world-class hunter.

The jeep drove into the luxury campsite, where a group of staff lined up to welcome Gu Bei and Liu Yifei.

Besides some locals, a large portion of the staff were white, and they appeared to be of various European ethnicities.

"The decor here is so British!" Liu Yifei said, looking around the room with curiosity after entering.

"Because African safari originated in the UK!"

Gu Bei wasn't surprised. During the UK's heyday, this area was its colony, and they were the ones who pioneered the Safari tourism model.

Safari is also the name of Apple's built-in browser, and it also derives from the meaning of hunting trips.

"I see!"

Liu Yifei nodded.
She looked out of the room and saw that the luxury campsite was located on a small hill, offering a wide view that allowed her to take in the entire grassland scenery at a glance.

She raised her hands, feeling the breeze in the air, a feeling reminiscent of Simba being lifted up in The Lion King.

"Click!" Gu Bei took his camera out of his luggage and snapped a picture of the scene.

Upon hearing the camera's sound, Liu Yifei immediately leaned over to take a look: "It doesn't quite resemble the animation!"

"How about... I lift you up?"

As soon as Gu Bei finished speaking, he was met with a fist from Liu Yifei.

I can't even imagine the scene if Gu Bei really lifted her up!

the next day.

Gu Bei and Liu Yifei boarded a jeep and began their East African Safari journey.

Apart from the tent covering the roof and the windshield, the Jeep had no other obstructions.

So there are two guides,
A guide drives,
Another guide is to uphold the truth.
They are guaranteed to prevent any unsuspecting predators from mistaking them for prey.

The original purpose of the Safari was to hunt the African Big Five, namely the African lion, African elephant, black rhinoceros, African leopard and African buffalo, to satisfy the hunters' hunting desires.

Of course, under modern left-wing ideology, and with most of these five powers on the verge of extinction, it is impossible for them to be as cruel as before.

The hunting rifles in the hands of the tourists

This led to the development of camera lenses and telescopes.

Liu Yifei gripped the jeep's guardrail with one hand and held up binoculars with the other, peering out to search for animals on the vast grassland.

She quickly spotted her target: "Look over there, the lion's in the tree!"

Looking over, Gu Bei saw three lionesses perched on the broad branches of a giant baobab tree, enjoying the shade of its enormous canopy.

This scene is like a one-to-one recreation of a scene from The Lion King.

"The lion in the middle is playing with something red, it looks a bit like the ball my cat plays with." Liu Yifei adjusted the magnification of her binoculars, carefully observing the lionesses.

"It looks like... a buffalo's heart."

After observing it carefully for a while, Gu Bei recognized the origin of the thing using his max-level hunting skill.

"Great!"

The guide turned around and gave Gu Bei a thumbs up.

Liu Yifei's expression changed.

Just a moment ago I thought those lions were like big cats, but the moment I turned around I was in a horror movie!

Although these lions look harmless, just like the docile lions in the zoo,
But the buffalo's heart reminded her that this was the wild East African savanna.

However, this unpleasant incident was just a minor episode during the journey.

Led by an experienced guide

Gu Bei and Liu Yifei wandered around the vast grassland again and again.
They took a photo with the well-fed African leopard, less than a meter away.

I also saw several zebras fighting each other along the remaining few sections of the riverbank.

I've also seen African lions engaging in some shameless and uninhibited activities of life harmony under baobab trees.

There are also crocodiles, vultures, hyenas, elephants, black rhinos, buffalo... and so on.
The fun of East African safari lies in the fact that all the animals interact with each other in various scenes and unexpected events in a completely free state. Everything is random and fleeting.

Unfortunately, after several days, they still haven't seen the animal migration they were hoping for.

"James, today is Crystal's birthday. Do you think we'll be able to witness the Great Migration?" Gu Bei got into the jeep and greeted the guide.

Guide James and driver Allen had been leading them for several days, and they had gotten to know each other better.

“I can’t be sure either, but what I am sure of is that the final moment is approaching. The food on the grassland is almost exhausted, and this is their last chance to migrate.”

"In my experience," guide James said with a smile, "the great migrations that occur at this time are usually much more spectacular than those in the earlier ones!"

Gu Bei replied calmly, "I hope so!"

Liu Yifei also seemed somewhat disheartened.

At the beginning, everything was very new and very interesting.

But after a few days of travel, I've seen almost all the African animals, and the experience is becoming more and more repetitive.

The so-called East African safari, when hunting is impossible, can also be called East African street stalking.

"There are so many hyenas today!"

Gu Bei keenly noticed the difference today.

“That’s normal. The less food there is, the fiercer the competition, and the higher the probability of hyenas appearing,” guide James explained with a smile, holding up his hunting rifle.

After a pause, the guide James pointed to the giraffes not far away and asked, "Would you like to try feeding the giraffes?"

Liu Yifei immediately became interested, as this was an activity she had never experienced before.

When the guide James saw that Liu Yifei was interested, he breathed a sigh of relief.

These two were important clients; they stayed for a relatively long time.
He didn't want the two of them to lose interest later on.

"Their fur is so soft!"

Liu Yifei fed the giraffes with the leaves James provided, and stroked their necks as she did so, before excitedly speaking to Gu Bei.

Gu Bei took the opportunity to try it out as well.

After they got away from the giraffe, Gu Bei spotted a pack of hyenas, as if they were following the jeep: "The hyenas are back! Could something be wrong?"

"I'll chase them away!"

The guide, James, also noticed the anomaly. He raised his shotgun and fired several shots at the hyena pack, causing them to scatter and flee.

Then, relying on his experience, he spotted another herd of migrating elephants: "There are elephants over there, Allen, drive over and take a look."

The jeep drove along the road.

They stopped just a few meters away from the elephant.

Liu Yifei looked at the group of elephants with curiosity. Last time they saw only one elephant with a few calves, but this time it was a real herd.

Gu Bei, meanwhile, was holding a camera and photographing the African elephants.

Suddenly, he put down his camera and reminded the driver, Allen, "Let's go!"

Before driver Allen could react, the elephant closest to them was bumped by the other elephants and came straight toward their jeep.

"boom!"

A huge African elephant drove by the jeep, casually tossing it aside.

It was like kicking a small stone on the side of the road, which flipped the jeep over.

Fortunately, the elephant wasn't targeting them; it was just passing by. After overturning the jeep, it continued on its way.

Inside the jeep, Liu Yifei felt a little dizzy, and at the same time, she heard the system's voice in her mind.

【Ding! 】

[Trigger Mission: A Moment of Life and Death]

what's the situation?
Liu Yifei was a little taken aback.

How did it come to a life-or-death moment?
