Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 228 A Duck's Day

Saturday, April 11.

Negative.

For Runrun Duck, who loves to bask in the sun, this was destined to be a less than pleasant day.

It was extremely reluctant to get out of the soft bed, stood in front of the mirror to style its hair and fur, and then nodded in satisfaction.

Leaving the farmer's bedroom, Runrun Duck entered the lobby, where a delicious aroma wafted through the air. Looking ahead, it saw a bowl of shrimp porridge on the table, making its mouth water.

Runrun duck quickly put on her little apron, sat obediently on her special stool, and slowly began to drink her shrimp porridge.

Although there was no sun, the shrimp porridge carefully cooked by the old farmer finally cheered up Duck's gloomy mood a little.

After finishing the shrimp porridge, Runrun Duck gently patted its belly when a green figure suddenly darted out. A little wood spirit mouse nodded to Duck, then picked up the bowl and jumped into the kitchen.

in the kitchen,
Two large wood mice worked together to wash the dishes, while a smaller wood mouse busied itself preparing the lunch ingredients.

Full and energized, Runrun Duck waddled into the yard.

The old farmer and the cold-blooded cow were nowhere to be seen; Duck guessed they must have gone for a stroll in the village square.

Electric Flying Cat was nowhere to be seen. Runrun Duck looked up at the little treehouse in the camphor tree, suddenly opened its mouth and sprayed out a thin stream of water, which hit the treehouse and made a loud bang.

Then,

The wooden door was opened from the inside, and the furious Electric Flying Cat looked down at Runrun Duck: "Electric!"

I'm dreaming about having a tryst with the Ice Crystal Cat!
"Quack~"

Runrun Duck flaps its wings.

Come down and play, duck!

"Electricity!"

Electric Flying Cat clearly didn't want their rare rendezvous to end like this. With a loud bang, it slammed the wooden door shut and continued to curl up inside, fast asleep.

"quack."

Runrun Duck shook its head and continued to wander around the yard.

Just then, Bean Chicken was also taking its chicks for a walk. Bean Chicken was still walking at the front with its head held high and its sharp eyes looking around, as if it were patrolling for any dangers lurking in the corners.

The chicks, now almost the same size as Bean Chicken, followed closely behind, their ranks perfectly aligned, one after another.

They all had sharp eyes, broad wings, and sharp beaks, which made Runrun Duck, standing to the side, shrink its neck involuntarily.

go go go go!

After walking around the farm, Runrun Duck sighed repeatedly, "Quack."

So boring.

Ironhead is very responsible and won't play with me at all; Fallen Horned Beast is running outside and has long since disappeared; Electric Flying Cat
Not to mention.

"Gah?"

Runrun Duck suddenly widened its eyes and turned its head to look at the tall trees.

Oops, have I forgotten the important thing?

With a thought in mind, Runrun Duck quickly ran forward and began watering the spirit plants.

After a long time,

"quack."

Exhausted and panting, Runrun Duck collapsed to the ground, its wings flapping weakly.

I'm exhausted.

But when she looked up and saw the lush branches swaying in the wind, exuding vitality, Runrun Duck felt a strong sense of accomplishment for no reason.

It quickly got up, stood in front of the largest hollow fruit tree, flapped its wings on the trunk, and exclaimed repeatedly, "Caw caw."

You have grown so big thanks to my hard work in watering you.

Runrun Duck's eyes darted around, and suddenly remembered the farmer's almost miraculous catalytic ability, so it quickly added, "Quack quack."

Of course, the farmers' help was also indispensable.

Can!
Runrun Duck stood tall and proud, wings on its hips, leaning against the thick tree trunk with an air of smugness: "Quack quack!"

Ultimately, it was me, the duck, who played the biggest role!
If heaven is watching, may a delicious fruit fall down to reward yourself for your hard work!
boom!
The next moment, something hit the duck on the head, and its body immediately sank down.

A sharp pain shot through its head, and Runrun Duck quickly stretched out its wing to touch it, then roared angrily, "Quack quack!"

Soul pale!

Who attacked me?!

Looking around, there were no other pets in sight. Runrun Duck looked down and saw only a golden fruit.

At that moment, Runrun Duck stood frozen in place, its thoughts momentarily frozen.

After an unknown amount of time, Runrun Duck took two steps forward, bent down to pick up the Kongming Fruit, and then silently raised its head—the golden leaves fluttered in the wind, and the plump Kongming Fruits swayed gently, as if they were fried spirit fish plucking at the duck's heartstrings, making it open its mouth in a daze.

Is the fruit ripe?
At this moment, with no friends around to share her joy, Runrun Duck had no choice but to drag over the sleeping Electric Flying Cat, the cleaning Wood Spirit Mouse family, and the strolling Bean Chicken and its chicks.

All eyes were fixed on the large fruit on the tree.

After an unknown amount of time, Runrun Duck's voice broke the silence: "Quack?"

What should we do with the duck?
A small wood spirit mouse was eager to offer its opinion, but was pulled back by the serious-looking scarred mouse.

As new employees, they must speak less and observe more, and should not speak rashly or stand out from the crowd.

They do exactly what their predecessors did.

"Cuckoo~"

Some chicks flapped their wings, trying to fly up the tree to pick the Kongming fruit, but were stopped by the serious DouDou chicken with its wings spread wide.

Everything on the farm belongs to the farmer, and nothing can be touched without his permission.

"Electric~"

Dian Dian blinked, a sly glint in its eyes, then flicked its tail and revealed its thoughts.

Since the farmer isn't here, shall we divide it ourselves?

Anyway, the farmer always distributes these fruits equally, so this time we'll do it ourselves and not bother the farmer.

"quack."

The duck's face showed hesitation.

Isn’t this a bit bad?

"Electric electricity".

Electric Flying Cat shook its head.

We're not going to eat much, and we'll leave the rest of the fruit for our older sister and Cola, so there's nothing wrong with that.

"Gah."

Gazing at the golden fruits overhead, Runrun Duck swallowed hard, her heart pounding with excitement.

Electric Flying Cat seems to have a point.

The Wood Spirit Mouse family dared not comment on the two little ones' discussion, and Bean Chicken also stopped the eager chicks.

The final decision rested with Runrun Duck and Dian Dian Flying Cat. They suddenly exchanged a glance and saw the decisiveness and courage in each other's eyes.

It's done!

However, before it even started, Ironhead's voice came from the gate: "Click!"

The two little ones looked at each other and both showed signs of panic.

Oh no, could it be that the farmer is back?

Are they destined to fail before they've even begun?
The two little ones mustered their courage and encouraged each other as they approached the gate, only to find a familiar figure there.

"Quaa?"

The wandering frog, carrying a crossbody bag, looked ahead, its gaze leaping over the two little creatures, through the gate, and finally landing on the distant Kongming Fruit Tree.

"quack!"

Runrun Duck was greatly surprised when it saw this.

The fruit had just ripened, and this little green frog could already smell it?

It suddenly looked at the Electric Flying Cat and exclaimed, "Quack quack!" Is the Far-traveling Frog's nose even more sensitive than the Electric Flying Cat's?

"Quack!"

The far-flying frog stared intently at the hollow fruit tree, which made Runrun duck instantly understand its thoughts.

So they've come to exchange things again.

"quack."

Runrun Duck scratched its head and then looked to Electric Flying Cat for help.

The two of them had the audacity to eat the fruit behind the farmer's back, but dared not take the fruit out to trade on their own.

"Electricity."

Electric Flying Cat also fell into deep thought, its eyes constantly flickering.

The existence of the Empty Fruit can no longer be hidden. If someone picks and eats it without permission, they will at most be criticized by the farmer. However, if they trade it privately, they will definitely be kicked out of the farm by the angry farmer.

Electric Flying Cat instantly understood which was more important.

"Electricity!"

Electric Flying Cat waved its paw, its gaze resolute.

Tell the farmer what happened!

Electric Flying Cat flew back to Chen Yuan's bedroom, retrieved a spare cell phone left on the farm, and dialed: "Electric Flying Cat~"

"Electric Flying Cat, what's up?" The farmer's voice rang in his ears, making Electric Flying Cat's heart inexplicably tighten.

But it quickly realized that it hadn't done anything wrong, so it told the farmer what had happened with a clear conscience, of course omitting its own and Runrun Duck's plan to pick the fruit.

Chen Yuan's voice rang out again: "Then pick a Void Fruit and trade it for something you like. Share the rest of the fruits. You've worked hard guarding the farm these past few days."

"Oh right, save two for Spark and Cola."

"Electricity!"

Upon hearing this, Electric Flying Cat was overjoyed, while Runrun Duck's eyes gleamed with excitement.

quack quack!
The best, best, best farmer in the world!
After hanging up the phone, the two little ones looked at each other and immediately got to work.

With the help of the Wood Spirit Mouse family, Electric Flying Cat picked the Clear Fruit and divided it equally. Run Run Duck then brought one of the fruits to the Far-Wandering Frog.

"Quack."

After sniffing the fragrance of the Clear Light Fruit, the Far-Wandering Frog nodded in satisfaction. Then it reached its paw into its crossbody bag, rummaged around for a while, and pulled out a series of strange and wonderful spiritual plants.

"Quack~"

"Electric Flying Cat~"

Runrun duck shakes its head, Dian Dian flying cat flicks its tail.

The wandering frog stuck its head into the crossbody bag and carefully searched for a long time. After confirming that there were no other spiritual plants, it spread out its paws.

"quack."

Runrun's duck-like eyes showed disappointment, and it casually flapped its wings.

There's nothing here that interests me, so you can leave.

"Crack."

The faraway frog stared intently at the plump, clear fruit. Upon hearing this, it immediately became anxious, flipped its crossbody bag over, and shook it vigorously.

No other spiritual plants fell out.

Runrun Duck and Electric Flying Cat were about to leave when Faraway Frog croaked. Seeing that the two little guys hadn't stopped, it quickly hopped over to them and stopped them: "Croak!"

I'll take you to a place where there are lots of delicious foods!

"Gah!"

"electricity!"

Upon hearing this, the two little ones' eyes lit up.

go go go go!

The two little ones informed Ironhead Baby, and then set off with Faraway Frog.

The frog hopped into the stream opposite the farm and continued its journey along the river, with the ducks following closely behind, jumping into the water and swimming freely.

Electric Flying Cat glanced at them silently, then flapped its wings and flew in mid-air.

Although it cannot swim, it can fly.

After traveling for an unknown amount of time, a vast lake appeared before them, and Runrun Duck couldn't help but widen its eyes: "Quack quack!"

Isn't this the place where it used to live?
The far-flying frog continued swimming, preparing to dive underwater, when it suddenly looked up at the electric flying cat, seemingly judging whether the latter could dive.

"Electricity."

Electric Flying Cat understood something and waved its paw at Runrun Duck.

Duck, you come in with me, I'll wait for you here.

Runrun Duck nodded and followed the Far Swimming Frog underwater, passing through schools of small fish, avoiding the ferocious crabs, parting a patch of water plants, and swimming into the deep underwater passage.

A burst of fluorescent light shone overhead, and the swimming frog leaped out of the water, its feet treading on the uneven ground, and walked towards the strong frog not far away: "Croak, croak."

Runrun Duck cautiously poked its head out, and after seeing the Far Swimming Frog talking to the strong frog that had once fought with it, it immediately looked away and prepared to dive back underwater.

It’s bad!

I've fallen for their trick!

The strong frog must have deliberately had the wandering frog lure it here so it could carry out its revenge.

Even though I'm brave and fearless, I can't take on two at once!

Let's go back and ask Electric Flying Cat for help!

Just as Runrun Duck was about to retract its head, Strong Frog looked at it, first stunned, then its eyes showed obvious astonishment and anger, and then it roared angrily: "Croak!"

The croaking sound was clear and loud, echoing throughout the cave.

The next moment, Runrun Duck dived underwater with lightning speed and frantically thrashed its flippers, causing the water to recede to both sides and disappear in an instant.

"Quaa?"

Seeing Runrun Duck leave, Yuanyou Frog tilted its head, its eyes filled with confusion.

"Crack."

The strong frog told the far-traveling frog everything that had happened before, and the latter nodded slightly, its eyes showing doubt.

The faraway frog stood there thinking for a long time. Suddenly, images of the big trees and plump fruits on the farm appeared in its mind, as well as the fierce-looking gatekeeper, the big bird that exuded a dangerous aura, and the big dog that roamed the mountains and fields all day long. It quickly made a bold decision.

Frogs live deep underground, so it's essential for them to maintain good relations with humans on the surface.

Especially powerful humans.

Thinking of this, the Faraway Frog did not choose to chase after the departing Runrun Duck, but instead went straight into the rock passage next to it to meet the supreme Frog King.

At the same moment,

The electric flying cat is putting its tail into the water, gently shaking it, creating ripples, trying to catch a spirit fish.

Suddenly, its tail felt a sharp pain, as if it had been bitten by something. Instead of being angry, the Electric Flying Cat was delighted and immediately pulled its tail out of the water.

The next second, water splashed, and a familiar figure came into view.

"Gah?"

"electricity?"

Runrun Duck and Dian Dian Flying Cat stared at each other, neither of them quite understanding the situation.

"quack!!!"

Runrun Duck suddenly remembered the important matter and gestured with its wings to tell Dian Dian Flying Cat what had just happened.

Run away!
They will retaliate!
Go back and find the boss!
"Electricity!!"

When Electric Flying Cat saw that Runrun Duck's expression seemed genuine, it knew the urgency of the situation and quickly flapped its wings, flying towards the farm.

The frogs are going to get revenge on the duck!
The frogs are coming to attack the farm!
