23 A bizarre encounter in spring

Since he had decided to camp, Ji Feng instructed the temporarily hired coachman to drive the empty carriage to the next village and wait until tomorrow morning to come back to pick them up. Then the girls carried a few not too heavy hiking bags, and excitedly and expectantly followed him and Haruhi into the woods by the roadside, and walked straight to the hill where there might be a hot spring.

Even though it's only half a day's walk from the royal city where Torlistine's School of Magic and Wizardry is located (in terms of horse-drawn carriages), it's already the "raw" forest that Spring wants. It's just that because of the climate, this temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest is slightly sparse, and the grass on the ground is not high, so it is neither gloomy nor difficult, but it is very suitable for playing.

Relying on his own BUG instincts, Haruhi who constantly commanded Ji Feng and led everyone through the forest soon encountered the first animal that could be hunted - when a bush near the left made a slight noise, Kasuga looked over there vigilantly, and before long, a big gray rabbit probed his head to appear under the bushes.

"Rustling ......"

Seeing that cute furry creature, Ji Feng and Haruhi couldn't help but hold their breath, for fear of scaring it away—for whatever purpose. Then, just as Ji Feng was hesitating to try to catch the rabbit, it jumped out of the bushes on its own, and there was another small pom-pom behind its short pom-pom-like tail.

"It's a mother rabbit and a baby."

In Ji Feng's ears, Haruhi's voice that was not deliberately suppressed sounded calmly. The big rabbit's pricked ears immediately turned in this direction, and then quickly ran away with the little rabbit through the bushes. But this made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief, after all, it was a female beast with cubs, even Ji Feng, who claimed to be a "hard-core man", couldn't bear to do it, let alone the girls.

"Well...... Such a small animal is not enough for us to stuff between our teeth. We're here to hunt big prey, the bigger the better, so let's let them live. ”

When the rabbit was completely gone, Haruhi turned around with a sense of relief. But I'm embarrassed to show my love for them frankly in front of other girls.。 In order to avoid being annoyed and angry in the spring, Ji Feng didn't poke her mind this time, and the black cat and the others were naturally even more unlikely to deliberately make trouble, so everyone laughed in agreement, and then continued to move forward happily.

"Whoa......

Turning left and right, he walked dozens of meters in the woods, and there was a strange sound behind another taller and denser bush, so Ji Feng and his party held their breath again and stopped. Again, they didn't have to wait long, and a cloven-hoofed creature with no horns on its head leisurely came out from behind the bushes, and its short tail was followed by a cub that was less than half its weight.

"Ahem...... Yes、Is it the mother deer and the child? ”

This time, Kasuga seems to have suddenly itched in his throat again. I had to cough before I could speak. And the alert herbivore heard the abnormal sound on her side, and of course immediately ran away with the child, so the head of the general group who had just sworn to fight the big prey, Changchun Ri, had to explain to her members again with an embarrassed face:

"It is said that real hunters do not hit animal mothers with children, and besides, they will immediately run away when they hear the slightest disturbance, and we would not have been able to hit them without long-range weapons.

Do you want to, or Makoto, you try to get an electromagnetic cannon? ”

"Huh? Why did you ask me to do it...... I'm sorry, I really can't do it, I can't kill it whatever it is, I can only corona them. ”

Not at all expected by Spring, Meiqin, who is usually very responsible, chose to shirk even if she was directly named this time. And everyone except Yuki also avoided her gaze and did not look at her, so naturally no one complained about what she just said.

"Go on, I think I hear the sound of water......"

"Hum Hum Hum ......"

Before the "conspiracy succeeded", the spring day cheekily led everyone forward again, and from the place where the doe and the fawn ran away, a real big guy came - a wild boar weighing three or four hundred catties.

As soon as this big wild boar with terrible fangs saw the golden Ji Feng and the others behind him. He immediately stopped vigilantly, and arched himself as if he was about to rush over. If it weren't for the fact that there was a series of cute little wild boars behind the ass of this wild boar mother, Ji Feng would definitely have pulled out the nunchuck of the Libra Holy Clothes to "hum hahahe" with the wild boar, but now he seemed to be motionless as if he had been immobilized by the magic. For fear that the other party would mistakenly think that he was going to attack her children.

Of course, Ji Feng was definitely not afraid of this big wild boar. Although he reads more novels, he also knows better than Haruhi the horror of wild boars. At the same time, he has not forgotten that the wild boar in this other world is likely to be a magical beast that can use magic, but he is fearless when he wears the golden holy clothes of Libra, and he can't wait to have a trembling and majestic fight with the demonic beast......

It's just that as soon as he saw the figure of the wild boar's mother fighting to the death to protect the child, he no longer had the idea of fighting with it.

"Hum ......"

I don't know if it was Haruhi's ability to make his wishes come true, or if Mikoto's electromagnetic waves that alienated the animals worked, or maybe it was that Yuki secretly carried out information operations, in short, the terrible big boar just stared vigilantly at Ji Feng and Kasuga and the others for a while, and then hummed and took the little wild boars away not far from them.

Although the girls wanted to touch or even hug the little wild boar with stripes on their bodies, they rationally suppressed the impulse in their hearts, and they didn't dare to move until the big and small wild boars disappeared, and they didn't even dare to gasp.

"Whew...... Hell, why are all the animals we meet along the way with children? Is it because of spring?

Let's go on, the wild boars are gone, and there should be no bigger animals left...... ......."

After the wild boar left, Haruhi finally complained about the bizarre experience of his group with tears and laughter. But when she led everyone through the bushes where the wild boar appeared, the brook and the two animals standing on the other side of the stream suddenly appeared in front of her, but she was so shocked that she could no longer speak!

“KUMA!!!”

“Kuma!”

-- On the other side of the creek, which was hidden by trees and bushes, a giant bear nearly three meters tall stood up, spread its forelimbs and roared in this direction. And right beside it, a little bear that was just one meter tall also stood up in the same way, and let out a childish roar at Ji Feng and Haruhi. (To be continued.) )
