Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 217: Who Are You Trying to Seduce?

"Let’s focus on how to get out of here. If this cave blocks our scent, I’m afraid Uncle Yuan Qi and the others won’t be able to find us."

"The three of us have already checked the entire cave over the past few days. We haven’t found any way out, other than the hole we fell through."

Yuan Lang said gravely.

Wu Yue looked up at the hole above, which was now covered by something. Only a sliver of sunlight shone through, so faint you could easily miss it.

"So you were trying to climb up there before?"

Yuan Lang raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "How else would I have caught you?"

Wu Yue glared at him irritably. "Can you just talk normally?"

’Why is he always so ridiculously flirty? Who does he think he’s trying to seduce?!’

’If I were that easy to win over, would I have been single for so many years?’

She took the small basket from her back, crouched down, and pulled out two bamboo canteens to hand to them. "I prepared this beforehand. Drink up."

Yuan Lang took one canteen and passed it to Teng Qian and Teng Kun. "You drink."

The two beastmen’s eyes lit up at the sight of the forearm-length canteen. With a happy yowl, they took it and began chugging it down, taking turns, GLUG, GLUG, GLUG.

"Aren’t you having any?"

Wu Yue offered him the canteen in her hand.

Yuan Lang looked at her. "You should keep it for yourself. We still don’t know when we’ll be able to get out of here."

Wu Yue patted her small basket. "Don’t worry, I have more in here."

Seeing his surprised look, she scratched her head, a little embarrassed. "I’m used to drinking boiled water, so I prepared some extra before we left."

Yuan Lang chuckled. "Keep it anyway."

With that, he walked straight over to the two beastmen who were still chugging away, reached out a long arm, and took the bamboo canteen from them.

"That’s enough to quench your thirst. Later, go prepare the rest of the prey. We’ll eat, get some rest, and then figure out a way to get out."

The two beastmen glanced reluctantly at the bamboo canteen, but they knew their leader was right.

After thanking Wu Yue, they declared they would prepare some delicious food for her to try, then went to a corner to get to work.

"Show me around."

’She had to admit it: she was a little scared and didn’t dare wander around by herself.’

As if he’d seen right through her timidity, the beastman came to her side. His large, rough, and warm hand enveloped her own small, thin one.

"Come to think of it, we don’t really know this cavern very well. It’s better to be careful."

’Heh. What a perfect excuse. I can’t help but want to applaud you for it.’

But to her disappointment, the two of them walked a full circle around the cavern and still found nothing.

Looking at the hole above, Wu Yue couldn’t help but sigh softly. "Does this mean the only way out is the way we came in?"

"Don’t think about it. Have some food."

Looking at the meat in front of her, Wu Yue was surprised. "Where did you get this meat?"

Yuan Lang pointed to the hole above their heads. "Did you forget how we got down here?"

Wu Yue took the piece of meat, tore off a strip, and popped it into her mouth. "This texture... is a little unusual."

"Heh, we smoked it with the leftover firewood. Not much wood fell in here with us, and this is the last of what we could cook."

After eating, the four of them huddled together to rest.

Wu Yue, nestled between the three beastmen, leaned against Yuan Lang’s furry back and was fast asleep in no time.
