Chapter 1254: Choked By The Smoke
"Do you believe me now?" Gu Xijiu asked without looking at it.
Naturally, the big mussel believed her and did not dare to challenge her further. However, it still wondered. "You have grilled many times before, but this is the first time you got choked by the smoke."
Gu Xijiu did not answer it. She tried convincing herself that she had cried because of the smoke. She told herself that the reason she felt pain now was that she was hurt. However, she would recover and would not feel hurt anymore after some time. She still firmly believed that time would heal her.
Wind Caller and Lu Wu had returned too. Both of them had hunted a lot of wild animals, and they had brought sufficient food to fill all of their stomachs.
The big mussel was worried about its master. Even though its master seemed to be acting quite orderly, it seemed that deep down she was a mess. For example, earlier when she was peeling off a tiger’s skin, she stuck it onto the stick to grill instead of the meat which ended up in flames and her hands nearly caught fire.
Fortunately, the big mussel quickly responded and promptly emitted water to extinguish the fire. However, Gu Xijiu’s hand was slightly burnt.
"Master, are you alright?" The big mussel took up her hand and blew the wound gently. Lu Wu also came over and looked at the wound with its pair of round eyes. It tried licking the wound with its tongue.
