Chapter 175 Planning the Trip
When Ruan Mianmian and the tall and mighty Sen slowly arrived at the center of the cave, they saw that Yu and the others had already prepared a large amount of roasted meat and some fragrant and tempting roasted potatoes and other delicacies, and were quietly waiting for Ruan Mianmian's arrival.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry to have kept you all waiting. If this happens again, please don't wait for me, just go ahead and eat."
Ruan Mianmian's face was flushed, and a hint of guilt flickered in her eyes. Looking at everyone sitting neatly on the ground, eagerly waiting for her to come and have a meal together, a deep sense of apology welled up in her heart.
"Hey, no rush. Anyway, we male orcs aren't used to eating food that's too hot. We can let it cool down a bit and enjoy it slowly."
Yong casually scratched his slightly messy short hair, a simple and honest smile on his face.
In his mind, it was only natural to wait for the goddess to eat first.
“That’s right, that’s right. We wolf-beastmen have always preferred slightly chilled food, so we’re not in a hurry. Besides, we always have various snacks carefully prepared by our chief, so we never feel hungry.”
Miyue sat gracefully among the many females and was the first to speak, her clear and melodious voice seemingly possessing a magical power.
“That’s right, we’re really not hungry.” The other females nodded in agreement when they heard Miyue say this.
Ruan Mianmian slowly sat down in the leader's seat. After taking a bite of the roasted meat, she announced that dinner could begin.
For a moment, the cave was filled with laughter and the aroma of food, as if all fatigue and worries had been temporarily cast aside...
Because Ruan Mianmian had placed haystacks in a corner of the cave well in advance, the elephant tribe could easily go and get them whenever they felt hungry. This convenient preparation undoubtedly provided great convenience to the elephant tribe.
Therefore, when the news of mealtime arrived, the brave elephant-beastmen quickly brought over several haystacks. Soon after, many elephant-beastmen gathered around and began to enjoy the hard-won food.
The white elephant that was successfully rescued has regained its former vitality after such a long period of time and careful recuperation. It is now able to jump around happily and walk freely.
However, Daman remained restrained towards her, resolutely preventing her from going to find the chief to play.
Deep in Daman's heart, although he knew that his daughter was destined to stay by the goddess's side, she was still ignorant and naive. He hoped that she could first learn some basic rules before going to the goddess's side to fulfill her duty of service.
Indeed, what is being referred to here is service.
As Daman's understanding of the Eastern tribe deepened over the days, her desire to submit to the tribe and to Ruan Mianmian grew stronger.
In her mind, there was no leader in the world more outstanding than Ruan Mianmian, nor was there anyone more powerful than Ruan Mianmian!
Whether in terms of leadership or other aspects, Ruan Mianmian has demonstrated unparalleled excellence, earning Daman's heartfelt admiration and respect. Daman is willing to follow her wholeheartedly and contribute his strength to the prosperity and development of the Eastern tribe.
At this moment, Ruan Mianmian was unaware that Daman had already decided to follow her, and was still worrying about the trip tomorrow.
Sen skillfully picked up the small, exquisite knife that Ruan Mianmian handed him and gently sliced it across the grilled meat.
He carefully cut the roast meat into evenly sized pieces, just so that Ruan Mianmian could enjoy the delicious roast meat better and more conveniently.
Then, he slowly turned his head, his deep eyes casting a meaningful glance in the direction of the Great Shaman Zhi, as if silently urging him and Elder Hui to come over here quickly.
Zhi and Hui were both exceptionally intelligent, and they instantly understood Sen's meaning. After exchanging a glance, they stood up without hesitation and sat down beside him with steady steps.
With a hint of curiosity and concern, Zhi looked at Ruan Mianmian and asked, "Chief, is there something important you want to say?"
Hui frowned, looking at her with a puzzled expression, her eyes flashing with thoughtful light.
When Ruan Mianmian heard Zhi's question, she composed herself slightly and then began to explain her thoughts in detail.
Her voice was clear and bright. Although she did not deliberately lower it, it was as clear as a mountain spring. Most of the orcs in the cave could hear her clearly.
“It’s like this,” Ruan Mianmian began, “The stones that Mu brought are very important to me. I need to go to the deep forest in the south to see if there are many such stones. There will be a large-scale blizzard in two days, so I only have two days to go out. So, who to take with me has become a problem.”
Just then, Ye heard Ruan Mianmian's words. He was chewing his food when he heard the news. He quickly swallowed his food and his face showed an anxious expression.
Without hesitation, he declared, "Chief, I am willing to escort you there! I have been to the southern forest many times, and I know the terrain there like the back of my hand. I will definitely be able to protect your safety!"
His tone was full of confidence and determination, as if he were ready to meet the challenges to come.
"I can too!"
These resolute words seemed to carry an invisible force, echoing through the cave.
"I absolutely cannot miss this opportunity! Leader, take me with you!"
Another voice called out urgently, its eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Leader, take me with you! I'm ready to go!"
The shouts of the crowd mingled together, like a stirring melody.
In their minds, going out with the leader is not just a simple guard duty, but an adventure full of unknowns and excitement, a rare opportunity to broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge.
Each time the leader went out, the vast world, the strange sights, and the mysterious miracles were like dazzling stars, deeply attracting them.
For them, nothing could compare to the significance and value of accompanying their leader on his journey.
That's why, when Ruan Mianmian mentioned going out, the enthusiasm to sign up surged like a tidal wave. Everyone longed to be one of them and pursue their own brilliance and glory.
Ruan Mianmian heard the excited roars of the orcs that seemed to shake the entire valley. The sound waves pierced her eardrums like sharp arrows, making her involuntarily cover her ears tightly.
Then came an unbearable headache, as if countless tiny hammers were constantly pounding inside her head.
She wondered to herself, were these people really too excited?
Although she could usually feel the orcs' enthusiasm, this almost manic state still caught her off guard.
