Chapter 3: Rescued

Crackling.........

Not far away, the branches of the trees were finally overwhelmed and broken down by the snow, and there was a crunch that rang out far in the lonely jungle.

The sky in the distance presented a dreamlike scene, and the sunlight shone through the thick clouds on the ground, and through the punctured clouds, you could see the pure blue behind them.

The tiny snowflakes that fell slowly showed perfect hexagonal crystals as the legend said, and Wu Yu, who had rarely seen snow in the south, couldn't help but stretch out his hands to feel the snowflakes fall on his palms, and then turn into a little cold.

"Ah ~ Ah Ah ~"

The untimely cold wind through the forest made Wu Yu sneeze several times in a row.

Wu Yu, who was trembling involuntarily, stopped being curious, put his hands away and rubbed them back, and then inhaled hard and patted his cheeks, the cold air penetrated into his lungs, driving away the remaining little dizziness.

No, like in the normal time-traveling plot, there is a reflection around you that can see your face. There is also no system and grandpa who can tell the ins and outs of everything, just by visual inspection and physical touch. He wears rudimentary linen and boots tied with coarse cloth shards in the skin of an unknown animal. Instead of the summer short-sleeved uniform with flip-flops when I met the last impression before.

Thankfully, with these hands that are too familiar to be familiar anymore, and the rest of the bare skin on the body. Wu Yu is very sure that he is still the familiar body, but he seems to be a little shorter, but there is no comparison, I don't know what it is, in short, there is no dog blood that the dove occupies the magpie's nest.

If you look in the direction of the faint sound of iron hammering and human voices, you can faintly see a muddy road hidden by the snow that has not yet melted. And a few pits printed on them that obviously don't look like humans or vehicles and horses can cause, "This world seems interesting?"

Wu Yu patted the snow on his pants, made a slight identification, and looked around to make sure that there were not so many superfluous items left on the ground. Without the slightest hesitation, he left the bushes and walked along the path.

"Since I can have the incredible setting that I will starve to death without reading a book, any otherworldly monster is simply too ordinary in comparison. Besides, haven't you heard that a man who has returned from the brink of death is fearless? "A certain strong bookworm was struggling to move forward in the mud and snow, and at the same time talking to himself, after all, suddenly appearing in the empty field was still a bit infiltrating.

"Gollum~Goo~Goo~"

Wu Yu pressed his stomach without changing his face.

Well, in fact, the most essential thing is that no matter how wonderful the world is or what hidden dangers there are. I am still on the verge of hunger, and my first task is to find a way to eat, and anything else is meaningless.

As a qualified middle school student with low survival ability who grew up under the red flag since childhood, he went into the jungle behind him to hunt, hoping that he would hide his bloodline and awaken, and start the road to the king of another world.

It's better to honestly recognize the reality and make a decision that ordinary people should make - obediently going to a populated place to cry for help is more in line with normal people's thinking.

"Captain Iron Axe, you see someone lying in the snow in front of you. ”

"How is it possible, a few years ago, around the Demon Moon, maybe there would be such farmers on the side of the road who would have had time to escape in the future......... You guys, like a man!" a stout, dark-skinned man who didn't look like he lived in the snow, and continued to scold the stragglers without raising his head.

The brawny man, who had been called an iron axe, continued to shout, making sure his voice could be heard by the long line. "Since His Royal Highness Roland came down, everyone has spent this year's Demon Moon safely. Put away your little cleverness, the silver wolf is not so easy to take. ”

"Look at the man as if he's still alive, I see him shiver!" shouted Yuzu, who was walking at the front of the opposite side, again.

Iron Axe raised his head and looked forward with his eyes narrowed, thinking that he must teach these loose fellows a good lesson this time. I saw a thin figure in a peasant linen cloth at the front of the militia training procession.

"Fanna, Yuzupi, why are you still stunned, hurry up and save people! The training is over, immediately bring it back to Miss Nanawa, the border town is short of people. It looks like it might be a hunter close to the forest who didn't have time to evacuate. ”

There is a fundamental difference between trekking in the snow and walking on the road, with a lot of snow seeping into your boots with every step, and within a few minutes your whole foot is already out of your mind. And the primitive dirt road mixed with mud and snow is even more arduous every step, and it is more terrible for a hungry thin man than a long-distance run.

Wu Yu, who had walked for a maximum of a mile or two before squirming on the ground, finally got his wish and entered the populated area he had seen before.

But in a slight departure from his fantasies of an explorer entering the village with his head held high, he was picked up by a large group of men in dark brown leather armor with long wooden guns behind him on the side of the road—half-dragged and half-carried to be exact, as the two militiamen in charge of carrying them were also physically exhausted.

………

It was a relatively low brick and mud bungalow, with a few pieces of roof tiles that had not yet been fitted together, and the mud of different colors on the walls on the side indicated that this was a house that had just been repaired in many places.

Since no one knew Wu Yu, Wu Yu was temporarily arranged to be restored in the house of the big man who picked him up with the iron axe he picked up, who was said to be the captain of the town's militia.

Kureha drank the hot soup with a little minced meat and bread cubes, feeling the happiness of filling his stomach with food he had never experienced before, and at the same time began to radiate heat to his body in turn.

While listening to the chatter of his life-saving benefactor and temporary host and caretaker, he pondered why he had never been to this place, and obviously he would not have intersected with the alien man in front of him, but he always had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with everything.

"You kid is just starving, fainting and freezing, and most of the bones in your body are children who have fled and been separated from the army. The iron axe pinched Wu Yu's arm and probed the temperature of his forehead. "I've encountered it before when I was hunting, so I don't need to bother Miss Nanawa. Miss Angel still has a lot of important work to do. ”

Nanawa, Miss Angel, Angel, Iron Axe, Militia, Town, Snow, Forest———

Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning, all the words were connected in my mind.

This is the world of the novel I read before, "Let Go of the Witch"!
