Chapter 455: Your Lives Are Too Incomplete
After walking for half a day, they exited the forest and chose to rest by a little stream in preparation for the females’ dinner before they pitched their tents and take a break.
After all, the females did not eat their fill in the afternoon. Although they ate a few wild fruits on the way, how could those pampered females be easily pleased? They just saw how Gu Mengmeng did not say anything and thus, did not dare to throw their tantrums.
But even though the females did not say a word, will the males’ heart not ache at all? Hence, those who went out for a hunt at night were almost all the strongest ones in the families.
Elvis did not join because he knew that Gu Mengmeng had a small appetite and she would not be hungry even if she ate only a small amount. Thus, he ordered Auretin to join the hunt while he and Lea guarded Gu Mengmeng closely, not leaving her by an inch.
To put it simply, they were still restless about the issue.
Gu Mengmeng did not mind them and just let those two fellows, who resembled little tails, follow her from behind in disarray.
“Xiao Meng, where are you going? I’ll carry you.” Elvis was aware that Gu Mengmeng knew about his uneasiness so he was quite embarrassed deep down in his heart. He could not even give this little trust to her……Elvis felt that he really failed thoroughly being her First Partner. But in this world, his only Achilles heel was this matter, it made him worry about his gains and losses, as well as, enormously proud of his success.
Gu Mengmeng pouted and said, “I think I saw a bamboo forest nearby when we came here previously, I want to search if there’s any bamboo shoots.”
Elvis carried Gu Mengmeng in his arms and cast a glance on Lea. Lea then secretly whistled before countless black shadows swept past their heads. The sky was originally not very bright either and moreover, the other males were busy taking care of their females so nobody took notice of the movement here.
Elvis asked, “What’s a bamboo shoot? Can it be eaten too?”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and replied, “Yeah, bamboo shoots are really delicious. Those who didn’t eat bamboo shoots before don’t have a complete life.”
Elvis remained silent for a while and asked again, “Didn’t you tell Auretin before that those who have not eaten bird eggs have an incomplete life?”
Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips together and hummed a long ‘yeah…..’ before adding, “Sigh, your lives are too incomplete. Bird eggs is one part while bamboo shoots another part. Think about it, if I asked you to return to when you did not have any roasted meat, no sweet potatoes, potatoes or fish meat, will you still be used to it? Do you feel that your life isn’t complete anymore?”
Elvis remained silent for a while and he truly felt that it was actually…..still fine.
But looking at Gu Mengmeng’s earnest gaze, Elvis then nodded his head firmly and replied, “Yeah, not complete.”
Gu Mengmeng gave him a ‘Look, I knew it’ expression and continued with fervor and assurance, “Once you tasted bamboo shoots and lotus, you will realize that your happiness level will increase by a few times. In this era where the variety of food is so deficient, every type of edible food is a precious gift. Didn’t you hear of the well-known saying by Confucius? ‘If you’re not enthusiastic in eating, you’ve got a problem with your mentality’. Let me tell you, Confucius said so many words before but in my opinion, this is the one that makes the most sense.”
Elvis nodded his head in puzzlement. Just then, a big bird hovered above their heads in the skies and flew towards a direction after turning two rounds.
Elvis and Lea exchanged gazes before they evolved into their beast forms and followed the bird closely behind with Gu Mengmeng on their backs.
After following the bird for around three minutes, when Gu Mengmeng felt that her hairstyle was all messed up, Elvis then paused his footsteps. In front of Gu Mengmeng was a half-dead Ian and a big bamboo forest.
