Chapter 273
Chapter 273
Have you ever been chased by a pig?
Have you ever been chased by more than twenty porcupines covered in quills?
You Bai was beginning to wonder whether that jackfruit was the porcupines’ very lifeblood.
One jackfruit, and they had chased the pair for two whole minutes.
Had they been wild boars, Li Yang could still have put his strength to use in a fight.
But porcupines were covered in quills.
Throw a punch at one, and never mind whether the animal was hurt – the person would definitely be finished.
And so Kong Hanchi’s team witnessed this astonishing scene.
They stood rooted in bewilderment for several seconds before finally reacting.
“Fuck! Run!”
At the shout, the five-person team immediately broke into a sprint.
Seeing the dust rising ahead, Li Yang began forming a plan.
Better a fellow cultivator dead than this humble self.
It wasn’t the first time he had done something like this.
After a brief think, Li Yang bent slightly forward and charged toward the five-person team, bringing the porcupines with him.
Kong Hanchi’s team had never experienced anything like it. They had no time to process what was happening.
Already, they could see Li Yang and You Bai disappearing into the distance.
The porcupines’ red eyes immediately locked onto the five people before them.
A tense, thrilling escape began at once.
But these people weren’t Li Yang. They were regulars who sat in chairs to play Werewolf.
Outrunning four legs on two was still rather difficult.
As the distance shrank, Chuunibyou, covering the rear, was the first to stop.
With a wooden stick in hand, he cut quite the figure of a wandering hero.
The porcupines immediately surrounded him, their reddened eyes full of violence.
Only this time, he didn’t have the treasured sword that had made his name.
As Chuunibyou watched his teammates get away, his gaze sharpened.
“If you want to hurt my companions, you’ll have to step over my corpse!”
The porcupines paid no attention to such things. With a squeal, they charged straight at him.
The expected stabbing pain never came. Two porcupines seized his clothes in their teeth and raced into the depths of the primeval forest.
Chuunibyou’s face turned deathly pale.
All the adult anime he had watched over the years kept flashing through his mind.
No!
He did not want any human-pig sex games!
As he struggled violently, a pig’s trotter smacked him on the head.
There wasn’t much force behind it. It looked more like a gentle caress.
But that only deepened Chuunibyou’s terror.
Images explicit enough to get a page taken down flashed past one after another. Tears of humiliation even seeped from the corners of his eyes.
He had considered that staying behind to cover the retreat might get him killed.
But he had never imagined enduring this kind of humiliation.
As his imagination ran wild, despair settled over his heart.
The fleeing Werewolf team also came to a stop.
Seeing that Chuunibyou had disappeared, No. 11 grew agitated.
“What’s that idiot done now?”
The English teacher sighed. “Probably decided to be a hero and cover our retreat.”
“That bastard! Why does he have to play the hero?”
It wasn’t one or two porcupines, but an entire group. Nobody there thought Chuunibyou could remain unscathed.
The lucky No. 11 gritted his teeth. “Come on. We’re going back to save him!”
“Are we really going back?”
“Boss Zhang definitely won’t let anyone die. He must still be alive!”
“All right. We’ll follow you!”
After a brief discussion, they decided to go back for him.
They hadn’t known one another long, but the hopelessly afflicted young man had already become everyone’s friend.
They sometimes couldn’t follow the way his mind worked, but he was also a source of joy for them all.
The four rested briefly, then hurried along the trail left by Chuunibyou’s disappearance.
Meanwhile, Chuunibyou, carried back to the porcupines’ den, had not been subjected to any human-pig sex games.
Countless porcupines surrounded him.
Before him were four or five young porcupines with injured legs.
Bandages and medicine were even laid out neatly to one side.
“You want me to save them?”
A slightly larger porcupine nudged a whimpering youngster forward.
The meaning was obvious: these little ones were his responsibility now!
Chuunibyou rubbed his nose and picked up the medicine and bandages.
“This might hurt in a moment. Don’t attack me!”
“Oink, oink!”
Without waiting to see whether the porcupines agreed, Chuunibyou opened the medicine and carefully began cleaning the youngsters’ wounds.
The instant the medicine touched a wound, screams like those of a pig being slaughtered rang through the cave.
Chuunibyou was nervous at first.
After all, hearing the young ones scream might drive these red-eyed porcupines into a frenzy.
Reality proved he had worried needlessly. The porcupines merely glanced over a few times, then turned away.
Time flew. The other four Werewolf players followed the trail and reached the vicinity of the cave.
Looking at the pitch-black entrance, the lucky No. 11 knitted his brows.
They had suffered plenty along the way.
Unidentified insects. Venomous snakes lurking in the shadows.
Calling the journey utter pandemonium wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
In their rush, all four had come to resemble refugees.
“Unless something’s gone wrong, our would-be hero is in there.”
Kong Hanchi circled the area.
“No other way in. We’ll have to enter here.”
“Let’s go. Be careful.”
At No. 11’s command, the four cautiously felt their way into the cave.
They all expected a fierce battle.
It wouldn’t even be surprising if all five ended up trapped in the cave with a herd of wild pigs.
But the scene before them was still beyond anything they had imagined.
Chuunibyou lay on a bed of animal skins, surrounded by all kinds of fruit.
Several bandaged little pigs clustered around him, oinking continuously.
He looked exactly like a pig king! Then they looked at their own miserable condition and felt as though they were Heizi after eating shit. Words failed them.
At the sight of his teammates, Chuunibyou couldn’t hide his delight.
“What brings you here?”
“Heh, heh, heh.”
“Hah.”
Kong Hanchi said nothing. Seeing that the pigs weren’t attacking, he simply sat down on the animal skins.
He wiped his muddy hands clean on Chuunibyou’s face, picked up a tangerine, and began eating.
The others standing nearby were no more polite.
One after another, they smeared their mud-caked hands over Chuunibyou’s face.
Clear the attraction?
Clear it, my ass!
There was food and drink here, and no danger!
Who would go back outside?
Elsewhere on the Island, a helicopter slowly touched down.
Heizi jumped out with the girlfriend who had come free with his Moutai purchase.
“Come on. Brother Bei should be by the sea right now.”
He Luxue gave Heizi a worried look.
“Are the injuries on your face really all right?”
“It’s fine. Just a few scratches.”
They walked to the shore, where Boss Zhang came into view, thoroughly enjoying himself.
“Well, well. Which respectable woman did you try to force yourself on, only to get beaten back?”
