Gu Mengmeng shrugged at Bode and said softly, "As long as you don't get startled so easily, the yellow needle insects will not attack suddenly. Calm down, just remain calm."
Bode's vein bulged, screaming for the hundredth time in his heart, "Why isn't Gu Mengmeng a male?!"
Gu Mengmeng did not like to waste time, so she returned before Bode exploded. She dusted herself before dividing the roles, "Collin, you are strong, help me look for some dry branches and moist leaves."
"Alright." Collin had no objections to Gu Mengmeng's arrangements, he nodded and answered before starting to gather the things Gu Mengmeng needed at one side.
"Oakley, could you help me start a fire when Collin is done preparing the things." Gu Mengmeng was more polite towards Oakley as she was not that familiar with him. But Gu Mengmeng's 'politeness' had disappointed Oakley... It must be because he had not worked hard enough the night Gu Mengmeng matured into adulthood and he did not perform as well as Collin, hence Gu Mengmeng was treating him like a stranger.
Oakley decided, he must put up a better work in the following days, hence he nodded firmly and promised to finish the task.
Gu Mengmeng turned around and looked at Bode, her fair and thin fingers drew some circles in front of Bode's eyes. She dragged her voice and said, "You..."
"Yes?" Bode was still impatient. He completely did not understand what this female was trying to do, she said she wanted to find the yellow sauce, and she threw a tantrum when he was unwilling to bring her along, now that she was here, she wanted to light a fire...
"It's okay, your job was already done, there's nothing for you to do next." Gu Mengmeng looking detested, she turned her head away and stopped bothering Bode.
Since dried branches and moist leaves were available on the spot and easy to gather, Collin was fast. During the time that Gu Mengmeng and Bode was expressing dislike at each other, he had already carried a large pile of dried branches and a dozen moist leaves back to the place.
"Gu Mengmeng, are these enough?" Collin said as he took out two separate branches under his arm and continued, "Here are two dried ones, I saw Elvis and Lea lighting a fire with dried branches so I took two too, are we going to use it?"
"Yes yes yes!" Gu Mengmeng nodded intensely and answered, "Collin, I couldn't tell! You looked so humble yet you pay so much attention to minor details!"
A little embarrassed, Collin scratched his head, before sitting down cross-legged and ready to follow the method to bore wood and start a fire. But within just a few turns, the dried branch snapped into two.
Gu Mengmeng chuckled and took over the branch from Collin."Leave this to Oakley, you have other important things to do later."
Collin was also embarrassed, he did not know that boring wood to start a fire was a delicate work, but he was much contented seeing that Gu Mengmeng was not disappointed in him because of this. Hence, he simply left the branches to Oakley and stood at the side to watch with Gu Mengmeng.
Although Oakley was not as smart as Lea, he had mastered the trick not too long after. A wisp of smoke rose and Gu Mengmeng immediately threw in the dead leaves, before pointing to the leaves resembling elephant ears at the side and she said, "Collin, pull two pieces out and start fanning."
Collin reached out to tear two pieces out and started fanning.
Gu Mengmeng's face turned black, she looked back and asked, "Why are you fanning me, I am asking you to fan the fire!"
