"If I had known that stealing something would cause so much trouble, I wouldn't have stolen it..." he muttered to himself, full of regret.
"etc."
Just as he was about to leave with the young orc, Su Tang suddenly called out to him again.
Xiao Feng shuddered, thinking that his complaints had angered the other party.
Just as he was begging for mercy, Su Tang pointed to the mess on the ground.
"Pack these things before you leave."
Xiao Feng diligently and patiently restored everything on the ground to its original state.
There were four large animal skin bags, which should have been full, but now they were more than half flat, indicating that a lot of them had been taken away.
After packing the items, Xiaofeng put them into the tree hole.
Su Tang then discovered that the trees here had all been hollowed out, and the space inside was very large, like a small cave.
However, this place is remote, and most of the tree holes are empty.
Seeing her staring at the tree hollow, Xiaofeng said with some pride, "The trees in our tribe are taller than the mountains, and the tree hollows are much better than mountain caves. We store our supplies in the tree hollows."
Su Tang was somewhat surprised, "If a tree is hollowed out, can it still live?"
"Of course! With the wizard around, even if only a layer of bark remains, these trees won't die." Xiao Feng said smugly, momentarily forgetting that his life was still in their hands.
A short while later, Su Tang saw that Xiao Feng had hidden the three orcs in a high tree hole.
“These things must have been brought out by Daqing from the farm. Daqing must be here too.”
Su Tang looked at Xiao Feng with a sullen face.
"Where are you holding Daqing? Why did you arrest Daqing?"
"I've said it eight hundred times, I really don't know! If I knew and didn't tell you, may I die right now!"
Xiao Feng was speaking with a bitter face when he suddenly saw Hu Shen's hand twitch.
He quickly changed his tune.
"However! Although I don't know where he is, I can help you. Our tribe is about to hold a sacrifice, and I heard that the shaman will use captured orcs for the sacrifice. I wonder if it is the orc you are looking for."
"A sacrifice? How are you going to perform a sacrifice?" Su Tang frowned, vaguely sensing that this was not a good thing.
Xiaofeng stammered, "It's...it's...the wizard would cut off the hands and feet of the sacrifice, and offer them to the Feather God with blood and fire..."
Su Tang's face darkened.
Isn't this just bleeding them out and then burning them alive?
They actually wanted to burn Daqing alive! She absolutely couldn't let them succeed!
When does your ritual begin?
"Tomorrow!" Xiaofeng quickly replied, "Or, you can leave the tribe first, and I'll bring you back tomorrow for the sacrificial ceremony..."
Hu Shen gave him a cold glance. "We're staying here tonight. You find us a safe place, or else..."
His gaze fell on Xiaofeng's other undamaged arm.
Xiao Feng shuddered immediately. "No, no problem!"
The male in front of him was so powerful that he couldn't even imagine it. Once the other man spoke, he wouldn't dare to have any objections.
...
Night falls.
Xiao Feng led the two to the tree hollow where he lived.
In the Azure Eagle Tribe, every orc has their own tree hollow.
Orcs with partners will build a treehouse in the tree to expand the area of the tree hole and live together with their partner.
Xiaofeng's tree hole doesn't have a treehouse; it's not big inside, just enough for three people to live in.
Su Tang was focused on finding Da Qing and didn't care that her sleeping place was crowded.
Xiao Feng, on the other hand, would steal glances at Su Tang every now and then.
"Don't want your eyes? I can dig them out for you." Hu Shen's cold voice rang out in the tree hole. Xiao Feng quickly shook his head like a rattle-drum, turned his back, and dared not look at Su Tang again.
Fearing that Xiaofeng would run away and expose their whereabouts, they kept a close watch on him.
Fortunately, he behaved himself and didn't cause any trouble all night.
The next day arrived quickly.
"Put these on so you won't be recognized."
Xiao Feng found two animal skin garments that smelled musty in the corner.
It has two conspicuous blue feathers tied on it, which seem to be the special symbol of the eagle-like beastmen.
“Out-of-human orcs are not allowed to participate in the priest’s rituals. If you are recognized, I will also be punished.”
Su Tang nodded and put on the clothes with blue feathers over them.
The clothes were a bit too big for her, but too small for Hu Shen. They were so tight that he had to take off the animal skin underneath before he could put them on.
Looking at Hu Shen's strong physique, Xiao Feng felt inferior.
Following Xiaofeng, the two arrived at the outside of a huge sinkhole.
The area was packed with Azure Eagle Orcs, three layers deep.
All the orcs stood on the top of the sinkhole, always maintaining a distance of three meters from it.
At the edge of the sinkhole stood an old woman with gray hair, short stature, and thin frame.
She held a black wooden stick in her hand, her body hunched over, and her exposed skin was unusually dry, like dried toad skin, making her look somewhat grotesque and disgusting.
All the orcs gazed at her with pious reverence, and no one noticed that there were two more foreign orcs in the crowd.
Xiao Feng looked nervous and led the two of them to hide in the crowd.
He whispered a reminder: "The sacrificial ceremony is about to begin. Watch carefully and don't make a sound, or the clan chief will find out."
Su Tang noticed that there was an old man behind the old woman, and the old man was obviously much younger than the old woman.
She felt inexplicably that the old man looked somewhat familiar.
Who does he look like?
Is he the chieftain of the Green Eagle Tribe?
As soon as Xiaofeng finished speaking, the old woman outside the sinkhole suddenly twitched and raised the black wooden stick in her hand.
