That being said, this is a place once inhabited by cold-blooded orcs, and the air still retains the cold, fishy smell of snakes and beasts. Which orc would dare to live here?
The two were stumped after finding nothing.
Just when they were at their wits' end, Shi Huan, who was searching the kitchen, shouted, "Clan leader, clan leader, come quick! There's a hole here!"
Sanqiao and the others went out one after another, and sure enough, just as Shi Huan had said, there was a hole in the ground, and a wooden board was placed next to it, which should be the cover for the hole.
Seeing this, Luce pointed to the cave and said, "I know now. No wonder we didn't find anything in the Baijingshan Cave before. It turns out he dug a hole underground to hide food."
"Do I need you to tell me!" Mitsuhashi said impatiently, "Hurry up and go down and look for it!"
Faced with Sanqiao's imperious attitude, Luce took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and slowly went down into the cave.
Mitsuhashi asked from above, "So, did you find anything?"
Luce's voice came from underground: "Chieftain, there's nothing there, it's all empty down there."
"How could that be?" Luce didn't believe it and jumped into the cellar himself. The cellar was quite large, but just as Luce had said, it was empty, with nothing inside.
"You, Bai Jing, you're really something!"
While the group was searching, the witch doctor arrived at Bai Jing's cave. He looked at Shi Huan in the kitchen and asked, "Why are you the only one here? Where is the clan leader?"
Shi Huan pointed to the hole at his feet. The witch doctor was puzzled when Sanqiao poked his head out from underground.
"Chieftain, what are you doing here? And where did this cave come from?"
“You’re asking me? Go ask Bai Jing!” Sanqiao said as he emerged from the cellar.
Upon hearing Bai Jing's name, the shaman immediately realized what was happening and asked, "Chieftain, why did you drive Bai Jing out of the tribe?"
Sanqiao glanced at the witch doctor and said impatiently, "Bai Jing brought cold-blooded orcs into the tribe and refused to accept punishment, so of course we have to drive him out as a warning."
"But, but Bai Jing is so strong..."
Sanqiao interrupted him: "So what? The tribe is so strong, do you think we're short of Bai Jing? Last time the wild boar orcs came, we still drove them away."
The witch doctor's words caught in his throat. He wanted to say that Bai Jing had awakened his ancestral powers and that he was too powerful to leave the tribe, but he remembered that he had promised Bai Jing that he would not tell, so he hesitated to speak.
The elder also advised, "Yes, witch doctor, Bai Jing is indeed powerful, but we can't abandon the safety of the entire tribe for his sake."
"Ridiculous!" Before the witch doctor could answer, Xing Ji rushed over from behind.
As soon as he arrived, he pointed at Sanqiao and cursed, "Sanqiao, you bastard, how could you drive Baijing out of the tribe?"
Everyone was surprised that Xing Ji would speak up for Bai Jing, and for a moment they didn't react.
The witch doctor glanced at Xing Ji, then at Sanqiao, and even wondered if they had some kind of conflict.
