Transmigrating to the Beast World and Raising Cubs with a Black Panther

After breakfast, Mo washed the dishes and took Jue out. Today it was his and Yan's turn to lead the team and teach the tribe's young children how to hunt in the nearby mountains.

Bai Ze felt a little uncomfortable in his chest. He noticed it when he was getting dressed, but he didn't pay much attention to it at first. However, now it hurts whenever he touches the animal hide.

He returned to the cave, lifted his clothes and took a look. Two swollen, red bumps were protruding, looking inexplicably shameful.

Bai Ze suspected that he might have been bitten by some kind of insect. After all, it's normal for insects to occasionally fly or crawl in from the mountains.

But this bug is really weird, why did it choose this spot to bite?

That area is naturally sensitive.

Bai Ze carefully took off his clothes, then found a fleece-lined shirt on the wooden rack and put it back on.

It's stopped rubbing, but it's still a little itchy.

So, taking advantage of the good weather, Bai Ze brought out all the animal skin bedding from the house and placed it on the stones and tree branches outside the door to dry in the sun.

After doing all this, Bai Ze took out the basket of persimmons that he had washed and dried the day before, sat outside the cave, and peeled the persimmons while they were warm in the sun.

A short while later, Qing and Xing arrived. Yesterday, they learned that Bai Ze was making persimmon cakes, so they came to help and learn how to make them.

Bai Ze took out the fruit candies he had made the night before. Xing and Qing each picked up a piece, tasted them, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "So delicious!"

Xing tasted it carefully: "It tastes like fruit, and it also tastes like the sugar you made last time."

"This is called fruit candy," Bai Ze said with a smile. "The method is similar to what I taught you last time. When cooking food for the Needle-Tailed Beasts, just put the juice squeezed from the fruit into it and cook it for a while longer."

"I'll try it when I get back." Xing's tastes are very similar to the cubs'; she really loves sweets.

Qing also said, "Then I'll make something for Xi too."

The three of them worked quickly, and while they were chatting, they finished peeling the basket of persimmons.

Bai Ze collected the persimmon peels and took out a bundle of thin rope, which he had exchanged with Ci. It was made of twisted plant fibers, and the two strands together were very strong.

After processing, tie the stems of the persimmons with thin string, string them together, and hang them in a well-ventilated place to air dry naturally for a period of time.

Qing: "Is this all you need?"

"Sun-dry them for a few days, then put them in a jar, layering the dried fruit peels and the dried fruit. Seal it and let it sit for half a month."

"It's taking so long." Xing was getting impatient; after all, the sauce-flavored fruit cakes sounded delicious.

"Deliciousness takes time to arrive." Bai Ze smiled as he returned to the storage room, taking out the various mushrooms he had brought in the night before to continue drying them. Once they were completely dry, they would easily last through the winter.

In the nearby forest, several black panthers lay leisurely on the trees, their eyes fixed on the ground.

A group of round-headed black panther cubs were darting through the grass, some of them not even taller than the grass, only their black backs visible.

For them, hunting is not a matter of survival, but more like a game.

Sometimes, as they walk along, those behind start chasing the tail of those in front.

Many animals forage at this spot, including rabbits, squirrels, pheasants, various birds, and rodents—all small animals that the little black leopards can hunt.

Of course, some might try to catch antelopes, sika deer, roe deer, or even wild boars, but the chances of success are very small. If the animals resist, adults will need to come to their rescue in critical moments.

In the dense grass, Jue lowered its body, its belly fur gliding along the ground, its front paws moving slowly forward alternately, its pair of bright blue eyes fixed on the undulating object not far away.

A gray rabbit was curled up in the grass, its long ears drooping, its mouth quickly munching on tender roots, completely unaware of the danger approaching.

Jue held its breath and, once it reached attack range, slammed its hind legs against the ground and pounced on the plump gray rabbit. Its sharp claws pressed down on the rabbit's body, and the next second it bit down hard on the prey's throat.

No matter how much the gray rabbit struggled, even after being rolled around on the ground, Jue stubbornly refused to let go, her pupils, which were straight up, filled with coldness and killing intent.

Having witnessed the whole thing, Li and the others couldn't help but exclaim, "Jue is amazing!"

Yan couldn't help but recall the days when he and Mo learned to hunt together as children: "Fast, accurate, and ruthless, just like you were back then."

Blood stained the fur, and the prey remained completely still.

Jue flicked its tail, picked up the gray rabbit, and walked back step by step.

Chen glanced around: "Huh, where are Xi and the others?"

Before the words were even finished, a rustling sound came from the bushes. The next second, three little black panthers rushed out in a panic, their bodies hunched over, making urgent "howling" sounds.

A porcupine covered in sharp quills was chasing them relentlessly, its body thrashing as it ran, firing black and white arrows.

Hao, who had been pricked in the butt, screamed in terror, his four legs flapping wildly like wheels of fire.

"Holy crap!" Yan and the others jumped down from the tree. "How did they manage to mess with that thing?!"

While porcupine meat is delicious, it can easily prick you up like a hedgehog, so they are only hunted as a last resort.

Xi was running at the back and was about to be caught when Jue happened to pass by. He immediately dropped the food in his mouth and pounced on Xi to the side.

The porcupine didn't brake suddenly and continued to chase Hao and Ying ahead.

Yan and Mo braved the oncoming attacks, trying to stop them.

Li and Kun quickly carried Hao and Ying to a nearby tree.

Yan let out a short, fierce roar, baring his fangs and looking quite menacing.

But the porcupine, whether out of stupidity or anger, stood with its quills standing on end, determined to fight to the death.

Mo skillfully dodged the attacks, attempting to strike the porcupine's vulnerable flank.

The porcupine immediately turned around, pointing its long, sharp quills at the ink.

The battle is very intense.

Yan lost his patience and let out a low snort as he looked at Mo: "Let's just go for it."

Mo stepped back two paces to the side, indicating that Yan should go first.

He didn't want his mouth full of piercings, after all, Bai Ze seemed to really like his face, and it would be terrible if he were disfigured.

inflammation:"……"

At this moment, Li and Kun also came over to help.

Four black panthers surrounded the porcupine, but the porcupine was acting like a madman, spinning wildly in place, making it impossible for Mo and the others to bite it.

They even received a few needle pricks unexpectedly, but out of politeness, neither of them cried out and silently helped the other bite off the thorns.

Finally, the porcupine spun itself until it got dizzy.

Mo seized the opportunity to stomp on it, knocking it down, and quickly bit its neck.

The porcupine struggled desperately, its quills sticking out forward. To protect his face, Mo quickly pressed it down with his front paws.

Then, I happily received acupuncture and massage.

Black panthers have thick skin, so as long as it's not a vital part of the face, it's not a big deal, but the pain is real.

However, Mo was able to endure it, and without uttering a sound, he killed the porcupine.

"You actually dared to capture spiky beasts?!" Yan couldn't help but scold the pitiful-looking cubs with their heads drooping. "Do you think you're too handsome?"

"What, do you really have to add a few holes to your body?"

Li pulled the thorns off Hao's rump, and the cub let out a "howl," clutching its head with its front paws and lying on the ground.

Yan tossed the thorn aside: "Now you know what pain is?"

Mo stared at the three of them: "Whose idea was this?"

Xi hid behind Jue and silently raised its front paws.

Seeing this, Jue didn't tolerate him and moved to the side.

Xi looked at Jue with a pitiful expression, her ears drooping.

Kun asked Hao and Ying, "So what's going on between you two?"

The two cubs hung their heads and remained silent.

Xi Dao also showed loyalty: "It was my fault."

"They both wanted to make up with me, so I...I let them come with me to catch the spiky beasts."
