Elementary contract scrolls were things from the Crystal Mall. They could be used to make various contracts, but the contracts were limited to beasts below three stars.
When Huanhuan was exchanging for seeds, she had also exchanged for a contract scroll and placed it in her ring space.
It would be useful now.
Shuang Yun placed his hands behind his back and took the contract scroll from his spatial ring.
The scroll made of sheepskin looked very ancient. It was blank.
The two parties had to write the contents of the contract and the names of both parties on the scroll. Then, they had to stamp their thumbprints before the contract would officially take effect.
But the problem was, Shuang Yun couldn’t read.
This was a little awkward.
He said to Meng Li, “Wait here. I’ll be back soon.”
Shuang Yun asked Jiu Yuan to stay and entertain Meng Li and the others. He quickly returned to the mountain and found Huanhuan. He told her about the Black River Tribe.
Huanhuan asked, “Are you planning to let Meng Li and those wild horse beasts stay? Aren’t you worried that Bu Jin will come after you?”
Shuang Yun revealed the star pattern on his arm and raised his eyebrows with a smile. “I’m a two-starred soul beast now. Why would I be afraid of an ordinary beast who hasn’t even awakened his soul beast? If he wants to cause trouble, just come at me. I’ll definitely beat him up!”
Huanhuan was already used to this guy’s personality of showing off from time to time. Sometimes, she even thought that his smug look was quite cute.
She unfolded the contract scroll, dipped a branch in animal’s blood, and began to write the contract.
Curious, the four wolf pups leaned over and craned their necks to see what she was writing.
After Meng Li and the wild horses he had brought with him started living in the rock mountain, they had to follow the rules of the Rock Wolf Tribe strictly. They could not reveal the internal situation of the Rock Wolf Tribe. If they broke the contract, they would suffer the backlash against their souls.
Shuang Yun looked at the words on the contract scroll and felt especially proud.
His wife was not only soft and cute, but she was also knowledgeable. Look at these words. They were written beautifully!
In the entire Beast Continent, there was definitely no female that was more powerful than his wife!
Shuang Yun carefully put the contract scroll away and quickly ran down the mountain.
Big Goody extended her little claws and fiddled with the branch in Huanhuan’s hand. Her dark green eyes were filled with curiosity.
The other three wolf cubs followed suit and fiddled with the branch.
Huanhuan gave them the branch.
Big Goody was the fastest and snatched the branch in an instant. She imitated how her mother had written just now and hugged the branch with her two little claws. She dragged it around the ground.
Her three brothers circled her, eager to play with the branch too.
Huanhuan watched them play and suddenly remembered that it was time to set up a school.
‘Let’s start with kindergarten!’
After Shuang Yun went down the mountain, he showed the contract scroll to Meng Li.
As soon as Meng Li saw the contents of the scroll, his expression immediately changed. “T-These are words? Someone in your tribe knows words?!”
Shuang Yun waved his hand. “These things are not your business. You just have to put your thumbprint on it.”
Meng Li carefully touched the scroll. Although he could not understand the words on it, a beast who could write so many words must be very knowledgeable and powerful. It was very likely that the other party was from a beast city.
Shuang Yun urged, “Stop wasting time. Are you going to press your fingerprint on it or not?”
Meng Li asked cautiously, “What contract is this?”
“Don’t worry, this contract won’t hurt you. After you sign it, you’re free to enter and leave the rock mountain. However, you have to ensure that you strictly abide by the rules of the Rock Wolf Tribe and not leak the internal situation of the Rock Wolf Tribe. Otherwise, your souls will suffer the backlash of the contract.”
Meng Li was still a little worried. “You’re not lying to me, are you? Is there a trap in this contract that we don’t know about?”
He couldn’t read, so he had no idea what was written on the contract. What if the other party had lied to him?!
It was one thing for him to die, but there were so many tribesmen behind him. They had placed their lives in his hands. He had to live up to their trust!
Shuang Yun frowned and said, “You’ve already fallen to this state. Why would I lie to you? If I want to scheme against you, wouldn’t it be better for me to just directly attack you? You can’t beat me anyway.”
The wild horses looked angry.
They felt belittled!
Meng Li waved his hand at the beasts behind him to calm down. He laughed at himself. “You’re right. We have nothing now. It can’t be much worse.”
He looked back at the wild horses and asked seriously, “I’m going to sign this contract on behalf of you. If any of you are unwilling, you can leave now.”
No one moved. All 57 wild horses looked at him.
Meng Li nodded. “Thank you for your trust.”
His thumb was stained with blood as he pressed it hard against the contract scroll.
The bright red words and thumbprint suddenly lit up. The pattern of a crown of thorns appeared on the back of the contract scroll.
The contract had taken effect!
Shuang Yun put away the contract scroll. “Bring your things and follow us up the mountain.”
Under his lead, the wild horse beasts entered the interior of the rock mountain.
When they saw that there was a huge fortress hidden inside the rock mountain, they all looked stunned.
How did the Rock Wolf Tribe build such a powerful fortress?!
No wonder Shuang Yun insisted that they sign the contract scroll before letting them in. So, there was such a big secret hidden in the rock mountain!
Meng Li thought to himself that if it were him, he would not let outsiders into the fortress without full protection.
Now that he thought about it, the contract scroll was signed as a matter of course.
There were still several floors in the living area that were empty. Shuang Yun gave one floor to Meng Li and his people.
“From now on, you can stay here and choose any room you want. If anyone is sick, remember to report to me in time. If you need anything, you can tell Jiu Yuan.”
After Shuang Yun finished speaking, he got Jiu Yuan to come over and asked him to be in charge of watching these wild horse beasts.
The wild horses settled down.
After dinner, Huanhuan mentioned to Shuang Yun about setting up a kindergarten.
Shuang Yun agreed readily. Although he had no idea what kindergarten was, he would satisfy the little female as long as she wanted something!
Bai Di suddenly asked, “I heard that Meng Li is living in the fortress with dozens of wild horses?”
Shuang Yun replied casually, “Yes.”
“There are dozens of them. We can’t let them live here for free, can we?”
Shuang Yun immediately said, “Of course not. They have to find their own way to survive.”
“I mean, give them a job and let them trade labor for food and shelter.”
Huanhuan’s eyes lit up. “That’s a good idea!”
