Quick, I don't want to be in love anymore

Chapter 388 The Original Heroine Whose Fate Was Changed in the Beast World (33)

With a "click," the mechanism on the stone wall was temporarily shut down, and Feng Yu gently pushed open a small opening that could only accommodate one person at a time. The two quickly crawled inside.

The snake tribe's camp was silent, with only the campfire flickering in the wind, making a crackling sound.

In the center of the camp was a huge warehouse, where all the snake tribe's food was stored.

Feng Yu and Mo Jintang approached the warehouse silently. Mo Jintang was responsible for keeping watch, while Feng Yu felt around on the stone wall.

Just before he could touch the entire stone wall, his hand touched a slightly concave stone. He pressed it hard, and the warehouse door slowly opened.

The warehouse was filled with all kinds of food, including dried meat, wild vegetables, furs filled with grain, and baskets woven from bamboo.

A hint of surprise flashed in Feng Yu's eyes. He quickly picked up an empty basket and filled it with food.

Mo Jintang followed suit, and the two tried to make as little noise as possible.

Just as they were about to fill the container, a low hissing sound suddenly came from inside.

Feng Yu and Mo Jintang's hearts sank. They immediately stopped what they were doing, hid behind a pile of food, and held their breath, watching the doorway intently.

The two were filled with regret, and to avoid being unable to get out after entering, they did not close the stone door.

So now, as soon as someone approaches the warehouse and sees the cave wide open, they will naturally know that someone has come in.

Moonlight peeked through the cracks in the dilapidated windows, barely illuminating a corner of the warehouse.

The warehouse was silent, with only the occasional rustling of leaves in the wind coming from outside.

The two huddled close together, their hearts pounding like drums, each beat feeling as if it would burst from their throats.

Feng Yu held Mo Jintang's hand tightly, trying to comfort her, but his own hand was trembling slightly.

Just as they expected, the patrolmen outside spotted the warehouse immediately. After a brief pause, one of the orcs gestured to the person beside him, and the two tiptoed slowly into the warehouse. They kept looking around, not missing a single unusual detail.

Because the snake tribe has limited vision at night, the patrolmen carry torches. The torchlight flickers in the warehouse, casting two shadows on the ground.

"Has someone really come in?"

One of the orcs asked in confusion.

"They must be hiding nearby; they couldn't have gone far."

Another orc's voice echoed in the warehouse.

Feng Yu and Mo Jintang held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

Some of the grain was loose, making a faint rustling sound.

Their hearts leaped into their throats at the sound of that voice. Feng Yu looked at Mo Jintang nervously, his eyes filled with worry.

Mo Jintang noticed it too. She subconsciously bit her lip and covered her mouth tightly with one hand to avoid making the slightest sound.

The footsteps grew closer, and in the darkness, all the senses seemed amplified, as did the light of the torches.

Feng Yu could feel that Mo Jintang's palms were covered in cold sweat, and he subconsciously pulled her even tighter.

They knew that once discovered, they would face the same fate as Feng Qi.

"I heard a sound."

The two orcs suddenly stopped and listened intently, their eyes scanning the warehouse as if they could pierce the darkness and see where they were hiding.
