Chapter 1085: Wilderness Version Of A Washing Machine
Wabei looked dismissive but he didn’t reject. He just eyed Elvis. “Go get those grapes out.”
Elvis ignored Wabei’s command. Xiao Meng wanted to bring those grapes to the little stream, and he would only do things for her.
There were nine big stone basins filled to the brim with grapes. It took Elvis and Lea three separate trips before they managed to carry every one out. Together with Barete, Auretin and Wabei—the five males each carried two basins over to the little stream.
Fei Rui just happened to be at the stream then.
He immediately waved the moment he spotted Gu Mengmeng from afar. He shouted enthusiastically. “Great Messenger…”
Fei Rui’s eyes were really very clear, and as innocent as a puppy. It held the purest light and one could not help smiling back at him.
Speaking of water tricks, no one could beat Fei Rui.
The moment he heard Gu Mengmeng wanted to wash the grapes, Fei Rui volunteered to take on the responsibility of churning the water.
He had Elvis tip over all nine basins’ worth of grapes into a wider part of the stream. His two cheeks vibrated gently, and the fishes in the stream formed a barrier to ensure that not one grape would be swept away. Fei Rui then morphed into beast mode and started swimming in circles in the water.
On Fei Rui’s signal, the fishes forming the barrier joined in, with the innermost layer of fishes swimming in clockwise direction, a middle layer moving in anticlockwise, and then Fei Rui himself swimming in clockwise at the outermost layer. The grapes tumbled about the water in the action created by the swimming, as if they were feisty little imps.
Gu Mengmeng tutted with amazement from the shore. “Damn, a wilderness version of a washing machine…”
Elvis and Lea exchanged looks before saying. “The stream will be frozen over in the winter time. When do you plan to let him return to the ocean?”
Lea’s arm rested easily on Elvis’ shoulder. His slanted eyes sparkled. “Or do you intend for him to stay on and become sautéed sliced fish?”
Holding her hand against her forehead. Gu Mengmeng understood his meaning.
This trouble stemmed from the time in Zacharias, when she told Dora that Fei Rui was her male. Those two fellows still remembered that incident very clearly.
Not long after, Fei Rui came out of the water, his tail morphing into a pair of legs. Water trickled down his body as he moved about unabashedly, after all… he was a fish.
As if injected with life, the grapes hopped into the stone basins one by one. Water and sunlight shone off the skins of the grapes, making them look like jewels.
Before even thanking Fei Rui, Gu Mengmeng’s lips curved mischievously as she jumped down from Elvis’ embrace. She grabbed Wabei and threw him into the water.
Wabei was caught unawares and he stared dumbfounded at Gu Mengmeng. “What are you doing?!”
Gu Mengmeng rubbed her hands while standing by the shore. “Are you going to wash yourself or should I help you?”
Wabei once again hugged himself and glared guardedly at Gu Mengmeng. “Why are you being so perverted?”
Gu Mengmeng jumped into the water and raised one leg, kicking Wabei to the deepest region of the stream. “Stop blabbering. Hurry up and wash yourself and then help me crush the grapes.”
Wabei was forcefully submerged by Gu Mengmeng, and their jostling in the water more or less cleaned him up. Returning to the shore, Gu Mengmeng pointed at the large stone basin. “Come little shit. Quickly come over and sit inside.”
