Chapter 214: Two Big Rats

After her voice fell, a moment later, the cave was utterly silent.

As she wondered, the beastfolk beside her suddenly burst out laughing; Wu Yue looked at him displeased: "What are you laughing at?"

Yuan Lang's deep eyes slightly curved with his smile; Wu Yue had never seen a beastfolk laugh like this before, and for a moment she was somewhat dazed.

Being stared at by the little female's eyes tinged with dissatisfaction, Yuan Lang felt a warm current spread from his heart, making his whole body feel somewhat heated.

He tightened his grip on Wu Yue's arm again, lowered his head to her ear, and in his low, magnetic voice, tinged with unfinished laughter, said: "Those two big rats you saw are actually big tigers."

Wu Yue: "..."

So, this cave is actually this high?

"Hold on tight, we're going down now." Yuan Lang reminded, tightening his grip on Wu Yue's arm.

Thinking of this cave that could make tigers look like rats, Wu Yue instantly wrapped her arms around the beastfolk's neck: "Be careful."

Yuan Lang chuckled lightly: "I'll take it as you worrying about me."

Wu Yue gave a dry laugh: "Of course... of course..."

Could it be that at a time like this she could still say, what she's actually worried about is herself?

How could there be such a tiger!

"Why did you come here? Does the tribe have some mission?"

As Wu Yue's words fell, she saw the beastfolk's resolute chin involuntarily twitch.

Unable to help wondering, could there be some unspeakable secret?

Just as I wanted to skip this topic, I heard the beastfolk say with disdain: "We originally came out to chase after you, but when we got here, Teng Qian chased a lone ferocious beast, and ended up attracting a pack."

He said this cave isn't deep, and after he went in, we actually couldn't smell his scent anymore.

So we decided to go in to hide; who would have thought...

He seemed to recall something, and actually took two deep breaths before continuing: "Who would have thought that guy stepped on a protruding rock."

After Teng Kun and I jumped down, that rock couldn't support our three weights and fell."

Wu Yue stifled a laugh and looked up at the beastfolk's face: "So, you... pfft... you were screwed by Teng Qian? Hahaha!"

Having said that, she finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

The pit was originally deep and wide, and the sound of their speech seemed amplified several times; their conversation was clearly heard by the two beastfolk at the bottom of the pit.

Looking at his older brother's resentful gaze beside him, Teng Kun became entirely delighted.

Yue was right, after all—our older brother's pit is much deeper than the one they fell into.

At least this pit has a bottom, while our older brother is a bottomless hole.

Yuan Lang's movements were very practiced; clearly he had gone up and down this pit wall more than once or twice.

"Is there no other way out of the pit?"

Wu Yue looked at Yuan Lang and said.

But seeing the beastfolk furrow his brows slightly and shake his head: "We've searched every nook and cranny, big and small, of this cave, but there's no exit at all."

After a while, the two finally descended from the cave wall, and upon looking up they saw two... big tigers... crouching on the ground.

"Yue, take a look at my handsome tiger face—where does it look like a mouse?"

Hearing that, Wu Yue laughed embarrassedly a few times: "Perhaps it's because the place we were just in was somewhat high, so we couldn't see clearly; I never expected it to be you."

Resentful Teng Qian shifted back into beastfolk form, sat cross-legged on the ground, then picked up something resembling a deep blue crystal and threw it at Wu Yue: "Hit you!"
