987 Birds Have Their Own Pride

A month's journey is not long.

Gu Mengmeng could not help but feel emotional when she revisited the old place.

The last time she walked this road, Gray and Xiaoshi were still by her side.

This time, things have changed.

Standing by the stream again, Gu Mengmeng couldn't help shaking her head and smiling bitterly.

How could she climb the Moto Mountains without wings?

"I always seem to fail to do what I promised him..." Gu Mengmeng felt sad, looking at the highest mountain in the distance, she didn't know where to go.

Leia hugged Gu Mengmeng's shoulders and chuckled, "Silly, didn't someone think of a way for us a long time ago?"

"Huh?" Gu Mengmeng was puzzled.

Leia's narrow eyes turned faintly, and said, "Look, someone is coming to pick us up."

Gu Mengmeng looked sideways and saw two eagles spreading their wings.

The size was comparable to Gray, but Gu Mengmeng could easily recognize that it was not Gray.

The two eagles landed, saluted respectfully, and said, "Mr. Envoy."

Gu Mengmeng narrowed her eyes and felt that the two people looked familiar. After thinking carefully, she recognized that one of them was Miranda's current first partner Lucas.

She understood that Leia used her identity as the fox king to order Miranda, so her partner had to listen to Leia's orders and be the driver.

After all, it was someone else's male, and it would be inappropriate for Gu Mengmeng to be on his back. Fortunately, Lucas brought a large animal skin, picked up Gu Mengmeng and held her in his claws, spread his wings and flew straight to the top of the Meto Mountain.

The other eagle took Elvis, Leia and Oridin to the small cave where Gu Mengmeng and Gray lived together for seven days.

The huge air pressure made Gu Mengmeng feel fainting. She gently bit the tip of her tongue to keep herself awake, because she knew that the wind in the Meto Mountains would only stop for half a day during the dry season. If she fainted now, she would have to wait until next year to see Gray.

Gu Mengmeng finally made it to the top of the mountain after forcing herself to stay strong.

The scenery was the same as when she came up last year, except that it was not Gray who was with her.

The cold spring was still emitting a crystal light. Gu Mengmeng squatted beside the cold spring and looked at the wings sleeping at the bottom of the spring through the clear and sharp water.

Those were Gray's wings, which had once taken her to a height of 6,000 meters and overlooked the entire Moto Mountains.

Gu Mengmeng reached out her hand for some unknown reason, wanting to touch the wings again. Before her hand touched the water, a gust of wind suddenly blew over, blowing away the spring water.

Gu Mengmeng retracted her fingers, gently stroked the feathers on her right ear, and said with a smile: "I know, I know, the water of a thousand-year-old ice hurts the hands and the body, so don't touch it."

The breeze blew gently, and the feathers on Gu Mengmeng's right ear fluttered, like someone's smile, with a hint of praise.

Gu Mengmeng walked to one of the caves on the top of the mountain. She knew that Samuel's body was originally placed on the other side, so this side should be Gray.

"Emissary..." Lucas stopped Gu Mengmeng, shook his head, and said: "Birds have the pride of birds. What he least wants is for you to see his miserable and desolate appearance."

Gu Mengmeng stopped and looked at Lucas. After a long smile, he said: "You are right. He doesn't want me to pity him because of his misery."

Gu Mengmeng sat cross-legged by the cold spring and said to the wings: "Do you know? Samuel has resurrected and he took away the wings... I can't fly anymore. So, come back soon, didn't we agree... to choose a sunny day and take me to fly around the Meto Mountains twice?"
