“Mengmeng.” Fatigue was written all over Lea’s face but when he saw Gu Mengmeng, his eyes still shined brightly.
There was a chair on the main seat in the meeting room, giving off the look of a hall used to hold justice. Nobody dared to sit on that chair besides Gu Mengmeng, even Lea himself did not sit on it before.
Gu Mengmeng did not have much thoughts regarding this kind of formalism but whenever she went to the meeting room, Elvis would always put her in that seat and as time passed, she had already gotten used to it.
Lea sat by Gu Mengmeng’s feet, lying on her knees to look up at her. He swayed his fluffy large tail and eventually landed it into Gu Mengmeng’s arms. Despite how tired he was, he still smiled in happiness and asked, “It’s rare to have such a sunny day, why did you choose to come to the meeting room instead of walking around outside?”
Gu Mengmeng ruffled Lea’s sturdy tail and glanced at Oakley who did not exchange much words properly with her after her identity as a messenger of the Beast Deity had been authenticated. She replied, “I’m here to see how busy you guys are and whether I can be of any help.”
Oakley lowered his head while standing at a side in respect. He said, “Servant and mighty Lea were discussing the candidates who will be heading back to Saint Nazaire with you. We wanted to seek the mighty messenger for advice regarding who you wish to bring along and leave behind?”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Oakley and did not say anything for quite some time. She pressed her lips together and appeared as if she was in a trance.
Back in the past, he used a white fox to garner her favor and dared to accompany her to gather honey despite not knowing anything. It was as if the scene of him roasting meat and preparing storage food together with Barete and Collin outside Elvis’s cave before winter had just happened yesterday. Since when did that shy but clever Oakley become this distant towards her until he did not dare to come close to her at all?
Gu Mengmeng commented, “We did not….talk like this in the past.”
Oakley pursed his lips and lowered his head, answering her, “You weren’t….the messenger of the Beast Deity in the past.”
Gu Mengmeng sighed and did not say anything else.
It was very hard to maintain basic friendships between females because that dividing line was too hard to control.
Snake was the best example.
Or maybe, that was already the best result.
Without any more entanglement, Gu Mengmeng rubbed her temples and said, “Those original tribesmen from Saint Nazaire can stay behind if they want. If not, they will head back with me. Burke and all the new tribesmen must leave with me. As for the snow fox tribe….other than Lea, all of them have to stay behind.”
Oakley frowned and after contemplating for a while, he said, “If all of them have to stay behind other than mighty Lea, those few tribe elders will probably start being suspicious again.”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled and refuted, “Don’t they like the esoterica? I’ll leave one copy behind for them so they naturally will not create a scene anymore.”
Oakley raised his head and stared at Gu Mengmeng with confusion written all over his face, not saying a word.
Gu Mengmeng ordered Auretin and Barete to get two large stone boards. They were around the size of the blackboards in school and their surfaces were smoothed to being almost flat.
Then, she used a tree branch tainted with the leftover wood-ash from the fire and wrote some words on the stone boards. After that, Elvis, Lea, Auretin and Barete slowly carved them into stone inscriptions following the wood-ash markings with their sharp claws.
They took a total of three days to finish everything.
Lea stared at the stone tablets for a long time before he pointed at one of them and asked, “Mengmeng, what is written there? Can you tell me?”
Gu Mengmeng smirked and replied him, “The thirty-six stratagems.”
