My Beast Ranch Story

Chapter 153, Spring Banquet ()

In spring at noon, the forest is filled with fresh air, as if it is a paradise wrapped gently in the chirping of birds and the sound of wind.

The trees on both sides of the trail cast shadows across the ground, and thickets of wildflowers dotted the verdant meadows.

Jiang Simiao walked to the big spiders' side and waved to them.

"Big Spider, Little Soft, how do you feel?"

This location was specially prepared by the old mayor for Jiang Simiao, mainly because he considered that there might be more pet beasts coming from Jiang Simiao's side.

Fortunately, with this arrangement, the big spiders will not affect other people.

"Hiss..."

The big spider nodded, relatively satisfied, but his attention was still focused on the big gourd leaf frog next to him.

"Quaa?"

The big gourd leaf frog turned his head in confusion and looked at the big spider, not knowing why it looked at him.

"What's wrong? Big spider." Jiang Simiao was also a little confused. He looked at the big gourd leaf frog and then at the big spider, trying to find something special about them.

"hiss……"

The big spider shook his head, looked directly at the fruit stall next to him, and answered casually.

It has the same flavor as the giant gourd leaf frog.

Jiang Simiao:?

Big gourd leaf frog:?

Even Xiao Ruan and the others moved their bodies all at once, as if they were inhaling the smell around them, trying to find the same smell that the big spider said was the same as the big gourd leaf frog.

Even the big gourd leaf frog himself twisted his huge body after being stunned for a short time, looking left and right at his body, his nose twitching, trying to find what the big spider was talking about.

But unfortunately, none of them were found.

"Big Spider, can't you be more careful?"

Jiang Simiao resisted asking.

Where did you learn the riddle of the big spider? Why don't you learn these things well?

"hiss……"

Not to mention the big spider, the perspective shifted from the fruit to the back of the giant gourd frog.

Following its gaze, Jiang Simiao was startled and turned his head to look over.

Those are the leaves of the giant gourd leaf frog. Due to the greater growth after waking up, the leaves on the back of the giant gourd leaf frog have grown more lush.

The tender green of the vines extends, and the lush leaves are like green umbrellas. These leaves show rich shapes and textures, some are wide and full, while others are slender and graceful. Their emerald green color becomes brighter under the sunlight, exuding a vitality of life.

The big gourd-leaf frog moved a little unconsciously when everyone looked at it like this. The leaves behind it began to sway slightly and made a rustling sound. The few remaining water droplets on it also completely slipped off. Everything was normal. .

"Forget it. I don't care." Jiang Simiao shook his head.

Since the big spider didn't say these things, then don't worry about it.

"Little Ruan Xiaoying Xiaoyan!" Jiang Simiao was planning to find time to come and give the food he had prepared to Sister Hu Li when he suddenly saw three little ones sneaking towards the food table and quickly called them. "We can't eat until later, so we can wait here peacefully."

He walked to the three little ones, picked them up, held them all in his arms, and threw them in front of the big spider.

"Help take care of them. If something goes wrong with them, it's your problem, Big Spider."

Jiang Simiao squatted down in front of the big spider, looked at its eight eyes, stretched out his index finger and shook it slightly.

Big spider:?

It looked at Jiang Simiao in confusion, and then turned to look at the three restless little ones next to it. The expression on its face gradually changed from calmness to despair.

"That's it." Jiang Simiao smiled softly, the smile on his face was extremely innocent, as if he had no thoughts at all.

Just treat it as your Riddler's punishment.

Jiang Simiao stood up again, and when Shilai came there, he took out the food that belonged to everyone. He took part of it, Shilai took part of it, and sent it to Sister Hu Li who was laying out in the middle.

"Sister Hu Li, happy holidays."

Jiang Simiao turned his head from behind the large pile of things he was holding, walked to Sister Hu Li, and said hello with a smile.

"Ah, it's Si Miao and Shi Lai. It looks like you have prepared a lot of things."

She quickly arrived in front of Jiang Simiao, helped him take the things and put them on the table.

Shi Lai put the things on the table by himself, and helped to set up the table as usual.

"I had already seen the big spiders, but I didn't expect you to come so late." Sister Hu Li opened the package and placed the things on the table.

"I just met Elena and chatted with Su Lin outside." Jiang Simiao said with a smile, "Do you still need help?"

"There's no need for these, and don't they still come from time to time?" Sister Hu Li tucked the hair hanging down on her face behind her ears, with a gentle smile on her face, although her next words made Jiang Simiao a little hurt, "And I must be much more professional than you in preparing these things."

But Sister Hu Li didn't say anything more, she just focused on the food.

"Did you prepare all these things? They look pretty good." Hu Li started to put the food on the table, with a surprised expression on her face, "Fruit cut platter, hamburger steak, royal jelly, is this scented tea? And this is the pine nut mandarin fish that I made at the time. Your preparation is better than I thought. You can enjoy it when you share it with each other..."

Her words suddenly stuck in her mouth, and she fell into silence as she looked at the next piece of food.

Jiang Simiao looked over and took a look, and also fell into silence.

"What kind of glue is this? It's sticky... is it a salad? It seems like an extraordinary mushroom?" Sister Hu Li smiled awkwardly and took out the food calmly.

The crystal slime gel covered the mushrooms, shining beautifully in the sunlight.

"Slime mushroom." Jiang Simiao withdrew his gaze and explained in a low voice.

Sister Hu Li didn't speak, but her hand holding the plate visibly wavered, and the smile on her face became even more forced.

"The food prepared by Xiao Ruan and others is indeed unique and must be full of their flavor."

After Sister Hu Li finished speaking, she pursed her lips and looked at the last package. She slowly opened it and saw something like black charcoal inside.

"This is..." Sister Hu Li's expression almost lost control. She was holding the plate and just wanted to ask Jiang Simiao.

As a result, when he turned around, he found that Jiang Simiao had disappeared. There was no trace of Jiang Simiao at his original position.

She looked to the other side and saw Jiang Simiao pulling Shi Lai from behind and running away.

"you……"

The plate was placed heavily on the table, making a crisp sound and the whole table shook.

This black charcoal-like thing seemed a bit out of place in a place filled with exquisite food. Afterwards, some residents who came to deliver food were all stunned for a moment when they saw the black charcoal thing, and the smiles on their faces were... He restrained himself.

This is not the first time for them to participate in the Spring Banquet.

The Banquet of Spring The Banquet of Spring, as the name suggests, is also a banquet.

Everyone has to exchange the food above. If you draw something that you must eat through the lottery, you really have to finish it.

Only the person who sent the food could not eat his own food.

But this...

A solid substance like black charcoal, it also exudes a special smell, neither smelly nor fragrant, but indescribable, just like its appearance.

"Don't be the one who eats this!"

<divclass="contentadv">Everyone had a unified goal in their hearts and began to pray silently in their hearts.

After Jiang Simiao, who felt guilty, pulled Shi Lai back to his area, before he could say anything, some helpful residents began to distribute drinks to everyone.

Emerald green life juice water is considered a precious supernatural spiritual plant juice, which can slightly increase everyone's vitality. Although the effect is not significant, many people still like it because of its sweet taste.

"We'll drink together later." The resident reminded Jiang Simiao with a smile before leaving.

By the time these things were distributed, the old mayor had already walked to the middle, holding a flower-shaped microphone with a kind smile on his face.

"Everyone, happy Spring Feast!"

The old mayor waved his hand cheerfully, and his voice seemed to have some magic power, which suddenly drew everyone's attention back.

"The flowers are blooming and the trees are green. The sun is just right today, so I won't say much."

The old mayor spoke eloquently, and every word seemed to speak to people's hearts. I wonder if it was a special extraordinary talent.

“The Feast of Spring is our festival, our feast at the end of spring, so I will give my time to you all right away.

But before this "Spring Banquet" begins, let us pray together that this spring will be full of happiness and hope, and that our hearts will be nourished in this warm gathering. "

The old mayor picked up the cup he held high in his other hand, with the juice of the green life fruit sloshing in it.

"I wish you all a pleasant and unforgettable time at the "Spring Banquet". Thank you!"

"Happy Spring Feast!"

"happy holidays!"

"I wish you a better development in the beginning of summer!"

There were sounds of everyone congratulating each other all around. The light and shadow of spring fell on this open space. Even the extraordinary creatures or ordinary creatures that originally lived in the forest gathered over. Under the greetings of other pet beasts, participated in this banquet.

Various gorgeous costumes were shuttled among the crowd, and ladies were wearing gorgeous floral skirts. Someone began to dance in the open space in the middle. After a show of grace, the next group of people performed.

Dance, song, drama, games...

"In this sun-drenched world, the important people who bloom with pride know what warm spring is."

"Ah, how dazzling."

"Ah, how beautiful."

"..."

A lady with apricot hair, whom Jiang Simiao had no impression of before, stood in the middle, singing spring songs for everyone with a smile on her face.

Her wavy hair fell on her smooth and white shoulders, with a wreath of purple flowers on her head and a snow-white floral dress. Her singing was like the warm sunshine of spring, pushing everyone's mood to a climax again.

"Anyone who wants to eat, come and draw a number! Let's see what kind of taste everyone can eat!"

Sister Hu Li has also been carefully dressed. Now she has a pink flower pinned to the hair beside her ear, and many tiny green flowers pinned to the middle of the braid.

After hearing what Sister Hu Li said, many people gathered over with interest.

Jiang Simiao's plate of food was hidden in the corner, making it difficult to find. Most people ignored its existence and thought it might have been disposed of.

"When the time comes, we'll smoke too."

Jiang Simiao also came on stage and sang a simple song. He had some training in his previous life, so his singing was not bad. After singing, he took Shi Lai and Big Spider together to draw lots for food.

"Let's see how our luck goes." Jiang Simiao smiled at Sister Hu Li, took out a note, and couldn't wait to open it and read it.

Shi Lai, who was following him, also took out the note and opened it immediately to read it.

"It's Shi Lai's meal!" Jiang Simiao shouted excitedly when he saw the name on it, and turned to look at Shi Lai.

It turned out to have a lifeless expression on its face.

"Uh... Shi Lai?" Jiang Simiao walked up to it and waved gently.

Suddenly he seemed to have come to his senses, and threw the note to Jiang Simiao with a cold face.

"Let me see..." Jiang Simiao had some bad thoughts in his mind and reopened the crumpled note, "Jiang Simiao..."

"Forehead."

Jiang Simiao knew the reason why Shi Lai looked like this.

"It's okay if you don't eat..."

After Jiang Simiao and Shi Lai took the food away together, they saw Shi Lai's dark face and said a little guiltily.

"Meow."

Shi Lai didn't look at Jiang Simiao, but just stared at the chicken wings he made, as if he were looking at an enemy.

Under the watchful eyes of all its companions on the ranch, it stretched out its paws as if to die, picked up a black chicken wing, swallowed a sip of saliva, and slowly opened its mouth.

Xiao Ruan, Xiao Ying and Xiao Yan didn't dare to look at this scene. They shrank behind the big spider, always feeling like they were watching something terrible.

"Meow..."

Shi Lai stuffed the chicken wings down in one gulp, and then stuffed the rest down without any pause. He didn't know whether he chewed it or not, but he seemed to have swallowed it completely, with a calm look on his face.

"As expected of Shi Lai!" Seeing that his food was completely eaten, he shouted excitedly at first, but then he closed his mouth instantly after seeing Shi Lai's deathly cold eyes.

Now I don't know if I am reminiscing about the taste of that thing just now.

unpalatable.

This was its first comment, but thinking of Jiang Simiao watching from the side, it even tolerated the small movements of frowning and just ate quietly.

There is no other thought about it except that it tastes bad, and it doesn't seem to have any special effects.

Shi Lai turned his head and originally wanted to look at Jiang Simiao, but suddenly froze when he looked towards the north of the forest.

Hallucination?

It wanted to rub its eyes, but its body seemed to have lost the strength.

It saw light cyan stripes floating in the sky, as if wind-like energy was constantly gathering in the northern sky.

Correspondingly, golden light spots spread out from there and fell on everyone and every creature.

This breath.

I was a little surprised at times, and subconsciously wanted to open my eyes wide, but my eyelids suddenly became so heavy.

Before he fainted completely, he only had one thought.

The breath of blessing I felt the night before...

And the breath of life.

My health is not good yet, so I fell asleep in the middle of typing at night. Sorry, sorry! Remember again, I currently owe three chapters and four thousand words of updates, and I will definitely make up for it later.

Then everyone, please take care of yourself and don't get sick.

It's really hard...
