Chapter 1544: Who Was The One Accompanying The Act?
Wales did not have any objections. After all, the rule that Snake King valley did not allow the entry of outsiders… was set by an outsider.
When Snakel was still alive, he did not mention that others were not allowed inside, it was just that anyone who entered would most likely become their food.
Returning to the Snake King valley gave him a feeling that everything had changed.
After Snakel died, Gu Mengmeng had only returned once, just once.
And Elvis and Lea were waiting for her outside the valley that time and did not enter with her.
But this time, with Cole the trouble around, Elvis and Lea would definitely not let him be alone with Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng immediately returned to the cave that Snakel had stayed in the past. Wabei had his own cave, and Wales’ temperament had occupied most of him after his awakening. He preferred peace to noise, so he did not stick with Gu Mengmeng and the rest, and only told her that if there was anything she needed help with, she could ask the little snakes to pass him the message.
Whereas Cole shamelessly followed them to Gu Mengmeng’s cave.
Both parties formed a strange consensus.
Cole obviously knew that Gu Mengmeng wanted the Spirit of the Rocky Cliffs, yet he still took the initiative to stick to them while waiting for them to plot schemes and deceive him.
Gu Mengmeng, on the other hand, knew that Cole was aware that she wanted the Spirit of the Rocky Cliffs, so she would definitely let him stay, yet she still pretended to reject him half-heartedly, then silently consented to him staying in Snakel’s cave.
This brought about a strange feeling as it was difficult to tell who was accompanying the other in the act.
During winter, all the snakes would hibernate, so there was no need to prepare food, but Gu Mengmeng does not hibernate during winter. Moreover, she was the Saintess of Snake King valley and had Snakel’s protection mark behind her neck. She had a special and precious identity so she had to be well taken care of. Since she also had Snakel’s Tear of the Beast Deity, she was invulnerable to most poison, so it was easier for the snakes to prepare food for her.
As animals with fang bites at their vessels were carried to Snakel’s cave continuously, Elvis, who would usually go out to hunt every year, did not leave because of Cole’s presence. Instead, he tasked his wild wolves to hunt. Cole said that he was going to stay to spend the winter, but it was not appropriate for him, a male beast, to expect a female beast to take care of him, so he ordered his wild foxes to hunt around the area and bring the food over.
As a result, there were three piles of food in Snakel’s cave. One of it was prepared by the snakes for Gu Mengmeng. Since they contained poison, only Gu Mengmeng could eat them, whereas the other two piles were prepared by the wolves and foxes.
Fortunately, Snakel’s cave was large enough, otherwise with all these food piling around, hehe, anyone would not be able to enter.
Lea looked at the three little mountains of hunted prey and silently shook his head. He was speechless, and sighed while he prepared them by skinning them to produce fur coats, then seasoned the flesh to be stored.
Gu Mengmeng extended her wings and flew onto a branch. She sat above ground and hung her legs off the branch while humming Guo Jing’s ‘Singing on a tree’.
Elvis proactively helped Lea. Cole hesitated for a moment before joining them.
The three male beasts who were like enemies that could never work together and had to compete with one another had actually started to prepare the winter food harmoniously, and this scene was really strange as well.
But because they had not created any chaos, when the first snow came, Snakel’s cave was already stored with sufficient food.
That day, Lea made all the dishes that he knew, because the first day of winter was an important day.
