Lan Yue's solution seemed like a conservative, but a safe idea . However, it was already late at night . No one would leave the place to go anywhere else at this time .
Were the three of them going to wait until the next day? Moreover, if everything in the formation were complete, none of them would leave the place for a couple of weeks . Were they going to wait that long?
They were desperate; how could they wait so long?
Yan Chen glared fiercely at him as he spoke, "We can wait, but Little Fox cannot wait anymore!"
Lan Yue sighed . "She has been kidnapped for two days . If they were going to harm her, they would have done it already . There is not much difference in how long we wait . "
He was not entirely hopeful for Little Fox to return safely and in perfect health . He would do everything he ought to do in this rescue mission and leave the rest to G.o.d's will .
Yan Chen decided to ignore him and turned to Gu Xijiu for more suggestions instead . "Xijiu, what do you think?"
Gu Xijiu looked at the mussel, that was now close by her side . "Take out the hidden rabbit in your mouth . "
The mussel was guided here by Yan Chen . Upon hearing her instruction, it was perplexed and asked, "Master, how did you know that I have hidden a rabbit in my mouth?"
The mussel had a habit of storing food, as it was always worried that it would get stranded somewhere with no food . Everywhere it went, it would eat what it caught . If the food were too much, it would keep it in its mouth as food storage .
In its sh.e.l.l, there were three rabbits, two chickens, and even a small boar .
As its master, Gu Xijiu certainly knew its habit . Moreover, she could hear the scratching of the rabbit in its sh.e.l.ls, desperately calling for an escape .
The mussel was a little reluctant to let go of its attractive food from its storage . It continued to discuss with Gu Xijiu, "Master, after letting it out, can I swallow it back?"
Gu Xijiu nodded in agreement . "You can go after it if there is no danger . "
The mussel was relieved .
It agreed to her, as long as it was allowed to take the rabbit back . Its prey should never be allowed to escape .
It pa.s.sed the rabbit to Gu Xijiu . She took it and lowered her position to the point where she was close enough to throw the rabbit towards the tree .
"Bam!" The rabbit fell onto the crown of the big tree .
The rabbit was still recovering from the impact it had just suffered . With a quick leap, it wanted to run away, but its limbs felt as though they were entangled . It struggled a little . Soon, all of them witnessed something that completely blew their minds .
Countless tiny roots emerged and tightened around the body of the rabbit . The roots then bound deeply into its flesh . The roots then drank up the moisture in its flesh . The rabbit was dried out and mummified almost instantaneously .
Yan Chen was utterly shocked . Lan Yue was in disbelief too . "Strange! The tree consumes living things!"
In the blink of an eye, the rabbit disappeared, leaving no traces of its flesh and bones behind . It was as though it was never there .
Yan Chen was still recovering from his shock, as he had not expected the tree to be so ferocious . If he made the first contact earlier, he would end up with the same fate as the rabbit .
The mussel felt sorry for its food . The rabbit was its storage . Before it had time to mourn for its dead rabbit, Gu Xijiu reached out to it and asked for more . "Take the chicken out as well . "
The mussel did not know what to say . Gu Xijiu tapped on its sh.e.l.l lightly and comforted it, "Listen to me . I will grill an entire lamb for you in the future . "
The mussel was immediately delighted .
Grilled lamb was one of Gu Xijiu's best dishes, and it was also the mussel's favorite .
