Finally, the mussel was awakened. It looked down and broke into a cold sweat. It quickly shut its mouth.
Although Lu Wu was small in size, it was strong. It was afraid that the mussel would swallow its master, so it used its tail to roll its master out and put her on a green stone.
Gu Xijiu did not know that she had just passed by the gates of hell. She was still in a deep sleep.
The Dark Forest was quite cold. She curled up her body into a small ball as she lay on the green stone.
The Wind Caller was afraid that she would catch a cold, so it walked over to her and used its hooves to pull her into its arms. It bent its body and circled her in the middle, using its belly to warm her up.
Lu Wu also got into Gu Xijiu's arms and covered its master with its nine furry tails.
In the middle of the night, it started to rain. The mussel simply opened its shell to let the Wind Caller and the rest in. It then closed its shell again, leaving only a one-foot-wide gap for them to breathe.
After such a long night, the three majestic beings were very tired and the mussel was awake.
The three of them had been working together for more than two years, so they had a tacit understanding with each other. Therefore, they divided the work. The mussel would keep watch at night, while the other two would sleep beside Gu Xijiu.
The heavy rain was accompanied by strong wind in the forest. There were lightning strikes one after another.
The mussel used to live underground. After it followed Gu Xijiu, it lived in a human's house. Although it often went out to hunt, it would find a cave to rest when it was tired. Especially when it was raining, it would hide in the cave and would not come out.
Now, it was forced to be exposed in the wild in the storm. Whenever there was lightning above its head, it would tremble a little.
In the end, it could not stand it anymore and simply used the Earth Drilling Technique to go underground.
It used to walk underground by digging a hole, but it was too slow and could not move more than two miles in a day.
Therefore, after it followed Gu Xijiu, Di Fuyi taught it a set of Earth Drilling Technique. This technique could allow it to quickly travel underground. It was very useful.
However, the mussel had a fatal weakness. It had a poor sense of direction and it had no sense of direction.
It used to hide underground and wait for its prey, so it did not need to identify the direction. Later on, it often followed the Wind Caller and Lu Wu to hunt. Although Lu Wu was small, it had a strong sense of direction. The mussel would never get lost if it followed it.
But now, Wind Caller and Lu Wu were asleep. After the mussel burrowed into the ground, it complained that there were too many stones in the ground, and it felt painful when the stones rubbed against its shell. Therefore, it decided to burrow in a place where the soil was soft.
After burrowing into the ground for a while, it felt that the quality of the soil here was about right, so it stopped and opened its shell to look at the three inside. Then, it was a little dumbfounded.
There was no air underground. It was fine, but the three in its shell needed to breathe!
There was originally a lot of air in its shell, but it couldn't help but breathe a little more, so the shell was now full of carbon dioxide and less oxygen.
Gu Xijiu was still drunk. She had not woken up, but her pretty face was a little red. Her nose was twitching, and it was obvious that she was having difficulty breathing.
As for the Wind Caller, it needed a lot of oxygen because of its big size. At this moment, it had already fainted.
Lu Wu jumped up, but it was also shaking in its shell like it was drunk. It screamed at the mussel and asked it to quickly return to the ground.
