Chapter 152: Ingenious Mechanism
They went back by another route and then took the main road.
We still reached the intersection, but it was dark just as we got there, so we stopped at the exit of the mountain stream to rest and decided to set off again the next day.
The team was in a mess, the males were listless, the females looked weak, and there were only fifty or sixty people in the team. It was obvious that they had encountered some danger and were escaping.
No orc even thought of going up the mountain to investigate. It seemed that they simply did not have the energy to do so.
The orcs hiding in the dark immediately reported the news back.
I don’t know whether those people stayed where they were or hid in the dark these days. Two groups of people passed by and they didn’t make any moves.
There were already voices of protest from below, and when they heard that their formation was weak and they had little fighting power, they could not help but feel uneasy.
You know, those captured females cannot be touched, after all, they don't know whether their beastly husbands have left or not. Plus, they are delicate and need to be served with "good food" every day.
But these are not necessarily the case. The males are weak and have no strong strength or aura. The strongest male is Lian Gu, but after so many days of long journey, I think he is just a spent force.
As long as they kill all the orcs, those females will be in their hands!
The atmosphere was very tense, and even if the ape-beastmen wanted to stop it, they had no reason or position to do so.
Weak males, few people and healthy females.
He was simply the best target for robbery, but it went so smoothly that he actually found it hard to believe.
"Brother, you should stop worrying about things that may happen. You are so hesitant and have no courage at all!"
"you!"
The orc next to the ape-orc pointed at him angrily.
You talked for a long time but didn't say anything.
In fact, he also felt that this was a good opportunity.
The second-headed man continued, "He is just a bone refiner. He is nothing more than that in the hands of my Zang refiner, all orcs!"
"exist!!"
The orcs were in high spirits and their shouts echoed to the sky.
"Let me catch those females and have a good time!"
At dawn, Zhou Manman and his friends got up early, drank some water from the bamboo tubes they carried with them, and prepared to set off.
The orcs squatting above clenched the stones in their hands and laughed in their hearts.
There is not even any food to eat, it would be better to go to their place, at least there will be no worries about food.
In!
They entered the mountain stream!
The two orcs who were approaching each other looked at each other and saw excitement in each other's eyes.
Zhou Manman and his team were walking carefully in the mountain stream and were about to reach the middle.
Suddenly, they were stopped by the orcs outside the mountain stream behind them.
"Don't go in! It's dangerous!"
The two men looked at the person who spoke with sinister eyes.
It was the group of orcs who had been guarding here.
The second orc was extremely annoyed and wanted to confront him head-on, but the orcs around him tried their best to stop him, so he finally raised his hand.
"withdraw!"
His eyes swept across the line of orcs that were slowly retreating, and his gaze suddenly froze on a figure.
Zhou Manman moved her body uncomfortably, as if someone was staring at her.
"What's wrong, Manman?"
"It's okay, I... I'm fine, let's get out quickly."
The two men showed bloodthirsty smiles on their faces. It was really effortless to get it. Hahahaha!
They retreated quietly, unaware that someone was following them carefully from behind.
When Zhou Manman and his companions came out of the mountain stream, they saw Jiao and some orcs outside.
The orc who was shouting told them of the danger inside with lingering fear.
Jiao glanced around and saw Zhou Manman, and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"
Zhou Manman blinked cunningly.
The orc who was conducting the general inspection noticed something was wrong, so he carefully observed their team and found that although they looked weak on the surface, when he got closer he could tell that the males were in good condition.
Looking more closely, I immediately had an impression.
He immediately whispered, "Why did you come back again and enter this mountain stream? Don't you know that there is danger in it..."
The voice gradually faded away, and the eyes of the orcs present lit up, staring at them with sparkling eyes.
After getting their unanimous approval, I was immediately overjoyed.
Zhou Manman put her hand to her mouth, whispered a hushing sound, and then waited there for a long time.
Then everyone went up the mountain.
Having walked the road up the mountain many times, they soon reached the top.
However, after looking around carefully, I didn't see anything.
Everyone looked puzzled. Zhou Manman looked at the ground under the sunlight and turned in several directions before he saw the colorful powder on the ground.
This powder was ground from the beads that the clan leader had given her before. Zhou Manman also discovered one evening that these beads actually had some nighttime effects.
And it's very magical. It doesn't emit green light, but white light and pink light, which is very beautiful.
But when they were discussing it that day, she shook her head and stopped Dong from saying that he would come back to find them when he reached the door.
What if there is a hidden button in there? The best way is for Donglai to follow in, and then they go to the door from behind. Yuan and Donglai will guard inside and outside alone, and there should be no problem.
The glowing effect of this powder is best at night, but it has a slight reflective effect during the day.
I can see it now, but it's a bit more troublesome.
Zhou Manman led the orcs forward, making many turns and circling east and west.
Finally it stopped in a narrow gap between the walls.
When I reached the crack in the wall, I couldn't find where the remaining powder had fallen.
Zhou Manman was wondering when she suddenly heard a painful groan.
The orcs looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw Yuan holding an orc's body and throwing it aside.
When I raised my head, I instantly noticed many eyes on me.
His originally calm eyes suddenly filled with a smile, a somewhat awkward smile, when he saw Zhou Manman.
All the orcs: "..."
Turn back calmly.
"Where did this come from?"
Zhou Manman looked at the last bit of pearl powder left on the ground, and then looked up at the narrow passage.
Pointing at the passage, "Could it be that we go this way?"
Yuan shook his head, walked to Zhou Manman, pointed to the land under her feet, and entered from there.
When Zhou Manman heard this, she quickly moved out of the way.
Yuan squatted down and dug on the ground, soon revealing an old wooden board. The color was almost the same as the soil. If they had not been prepared and had been watching Yuan's movements, they might not have known it was this even if the board was revealed.
Zhou Manman also squatted down and pressed hard a few times.
I didn't feel that there was empty space below and looked at Yuan in confusion.
"Don't worry, Manman."
Yuan said as he lifted up the large square wooden board.
