Chapter 382 - The Previous Messenger of the Beast Deity Is a Funny and Ridiculous Person
Cole was first shocked, before starting to lose control so the emotions on her face. With a big step forward, he approached Gu Mengmeng and said, “Geese, O geese!”
Gu Mengmeng had a stiff smile on her face as she thought to herself, “Brother, can you control the smile on your face? Why did it seem like I had turned your switch on by just reciting a poem? What were you so excited about?!
Cole was a little anxious seeing Gu Mengmeng not replying, so he took another step forward and repeated himself, “Geese, O geese!”
“Necks curve and sing to sky with glees; Your white plumes float on water green, Red feet paddle streams clear and clean.” Gu Mengmeng decided to recite the entire poem for him. Seeing Cole was about to open his mouth to ask again, Gu Mengmeng made a ‘stop’ pose and said, “Stop asking will you, I could read words by three years old, understand it by five, memorize the three hundred famous poems by seven and make poems by nine. If you don’t believe me, I can write one for you now.”
With hands behind her back, Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “The Emperor helped the General took off his coat armor; they spent the night under the warmth of a hibiscus canopy; rendering all concubines of the six palaces lusterless; from this day on the Emperor missed each and every morning court.”
With that, Gu Mengmeng turned around, looked at Cole with a sneaky smile and said, “How does Leader Cole feel about the poem I just made?”
‘Thump’ Both of Cole’s knees dropped to the ground in an utmost worshiping position as he raised his voice and announced, “Messenger Tribe Leader Cole, welcomes the return of the Messenger of the Beast Deity.”
With Cole kneeling down, nobody dared to stand up, the whole scene was spectacular, even Lea and Elvis was kneeling under Gu Mengmeng’s feet with the crowd in a submissive position.
Gu Mengmeng’s mouth twitched as she smiled awkwardly. She took two steps forward and picked up the esoterica that was being worshiped and only for the eyes of tribe leaders…
What the heck, of course it had to be “300 Poems of the Tang Dynasty”.
There were a thousand alpacas running across Gu Mengmeng’s mind.
The previous Messenger of the Beast Deity must be a funny and ridiculous person? Using a “300 Poems of the Tang Dynasty” to trick Sauder for a thousand years. Just a freaking book for nine dollars ninety-nine cents and it was worshiped for a whole thousand years. Moreover, it was only passed from father to son, son to grandson? Gu Mengmeng was really doubting Lea’s words on the Snow Fox Tribe being smart and scheming… Was he being serious?
Looking back at Lea and Elvis, Gu Mengmeng realized that everyone was still kneeling down, so she quickly waved her hands and said, “Everyone can get up now.”
“Yes.” With one hand supporting again the ground, Cole stood up slowly, went up to Gu Mengmeng and said respectfully, “As a servant, I had delayed the welcome and made the great Messenger suffered outside, please punish me.”
Gu Mengmeng’s eyes darted to Lea and thought, of course they were produced from the same factory, having the same masochistic behavior, straight up asking for her punishment? Did he want a leather whip or wax play?
Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “Servant? Leader Cole must be joking. I am just a little female in Saint Nazaire, how could I use the great Leader as my servant?”
Just when Cole wanted to add on, Gu Mengmeng opened her mouth first and continued, “Erm… is this ceremony over? I don’t have to be burnt to death right? Then can I leave now? My partner is still there waiting for me.”
“Great Messenger…” Cole took a step forward to Gu Mengmeng and stopped her. With head lowered in respect, he said, “Since the Great Messenger has returned, you should naturally stay in Sauder, this is your tribe. As for your partner… he can stay with you too.”
Gu Mengmeng raised her eyebrow and asked, “What if I don’t obey? Are you going to make me stay by force?”
Cole lowered his head and said, “Servant dares not.”
But even with that, he remained like an old oak tree rooted to the ground, not moving an inch.
