Chapter 642 The Underground People (2/2)

Shao Xuan instructed the others to leave the tribe. As they were leaving, Duo Li looked at the Gu people and said to Shao Xuan, “If they wanted to hunt, they could just ask us for help. We have so much experience, this is a great opportunity for them.”

Duo Li asked again, “Are we leaving now?”

“Why? What are you thinking about?” asked Shao Xuan.

“Nothing, I’m just curious how they would solve this.”

Shao Xuan thought for a while and said, “Maybe they already have a plan, a huge one too.”

“Really? Why not we stay for a few more days and see how they solve this. I really don’t know how the other tribes hunt.” Duo Li’s eyes were gleaming brighter than gemstones at this point.

The other tribe members were curious too. It would be a great learning experience to observe how other tribes hunt. They were interested in knowing how the Gu tribe would hunt without the super strength the Flaming Horn members had.

As the Flaming Horn people were still deciding whether to stay on to see how things play out, Bo Gu had already dismissed his tribe members while looking somberly at the beast on the ground. He then walked to the wooden frame at the bottom of his house.

The frame was surrounded by tightly coiled nets for privacy. Bo Gu walked to the centre of the frame and stomped three times. With every step, it felt that a wave was sent out in a circle, moving the grass as they passed.

After three steps, Bo Gu stood still. As he felt a push from the ground, he took a step back.

A thick wooden cover emerged on the spot he was originally standing at. It was covered by a thick layer of soil with some grass on top.

It was an entrance to a cave!

The entrance opened and someone appeared. His face was filthy. His nose poked out from the ground and before he fully came out of the hole, he laid beside the cave. With a yawn, he asked Bo Gu, “What now?”

“Is it safe down there now?” asked Bo Gu.

Impatiently, the man replied, “Of course, why else would I be able to sleep here? It gets noisy at night, you all are too loud.”

The man spoke quickly, in a squeaky voice. It would be hard for people that weren’t familiar with him to understand what he was saying. However, Bo Gu seemed to have caught every word he said.

Bo Gu didn’t seem to care about his complaints too and only said, “I’m glad it’s safe.” Then, he turned to leave.

The person prepared to head back into the cave to sleep but suddenly remembered something and asked, “Were the Flaming Horn tribespeople here?”

“Yes.”

Bo Gu had a blank expression, he didn’t seem to want to continue speaking.

“I never met them before, I heard they looked like beasts, is it true? With fangs, claws and tails?”

“No, there was nothing special about them.”

“I don’t believe it, are they still here? I want to take a peek.”

“No, they left.”

“Why aren’t you asking for their help? I heard they were skilled hunters. If you had their help your life would be easier.”

“This is a matter of the Gu tribe, we don’t need them interfering,” said Bo Gu blankly.

“Oh, since it is a matter of the Gu tribe, then our tribe won’t interfere either.” The person saw that Bo Gu had no reaction to his statement and closed the entrance to the cave. The ground was back to its original state.

Bo Gu took a deep breath and stopped himself from stomping around the entrance. Let’s see if he can sleep then!
