Finally, everyone left the place under the urging of the bearded man.
Seeing this, the bearded man and Liu Ting exchanged a look, relief evident in their eyes.
Soon, the sky began to darken.
A group of people found a spot and began to set up camp.
Before long, it was time to prepare the meal.
Because of Kang Yue's earlier words, this time, the male and female leads, along with the third person, also brought some dry rations and walked over.
The male lead, Liu Ting, cast a casual glance at Kang Yue and said, "Let us help as well."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke for a moment.
After a while, Song Fengyun, from within the group, smiled and said, "Alright, we might be staying here for a while longer. Since you all want to join in, and we don't need so many people to cook, how about this: we'll take turns cooking."
Hearing this, no one objected.
Seeing this, Song Fengyun smiled and said, "Since everyone has no objections, it's happily decided. Alright," he said, casually plucking a few blades of grass from beside him, "everyone can start drawing lots. Whoever draws the two longest blades of grass will be responsible for tonight's dinner."
"???"
Meeting the strange gazes cast upon him, Song Fengyun remained unfazed and extended the handful of grass forward, his intention clear.
Thus, everyone reached out and took a blade of grass from his hand.
Before long, the grass in Song Fengyun's hand was gone...
The final result was that Ming Li and Xiang Hanxin were responsible for tonight's dinner.
Looking at the blade of grass in her hand, Ming Li fell into deep contemplation.
Recalling her previous experiences of blowing up kitchens in other dimensions, Ming Li's mouth twitched slightly...
She shouldn't... probably... maybe... she wouldn't burn down the entire forest later, would she...
Seeing Ming Li standing still, Xiang Hanxin on the side paused and walked over to her, "Sister Li, it's getting late, let's go."
Hearing this, Ming Li snapped back to attention, glanced at the man in front of her, and nodded, "Let's go."
Half an hour later.
The aroma filling the air was indescribable, and everyone's gaze turned peculiar.
Kang Yue swallowed with some difficulty, moved closer to Ming Li, stared at the covered pot in front of Ming Li, and asked curiously, "Sister Li, what's inside your pot?"
Ming Li replied, "Fish."
Hearing the splashing sounds from the pot, Kang Yue's mouth twitched, and she tentatively asked, "Um... can I take a look?"
Ming Li said, "You can, but be careful."
Hearing this, before Kang Yue could understand Ming Li's words, she reached out and lifted the lid. The next second, water splashed out, and large amounts of hot water splashed onto Kang Yue, scaring her so much that she dropped the pot lid on the ground.
At this moment, looking at the deep purple liquid and the two lively fish in the pot, Kang Yue wore a strange expression and fell into a stunned silence.
After a while, Kang Yue recovered and her voice trembled slightly, "Sister... Sister Li, why are these fish still alive? And! Why is this soup purple?" It looks so poisonous...
Hearing this, Ming Li frowned. Looking at the lively fish in the pot, she said matter-of-factly, "I just knocked them unconscious. I'll knock them again later." After a moment of thought, Ming Li continued, "As for the soup in the pot, don't worry, it's a great tonic." She had added a thousand-year-old purple Ganoderma lucidum she brought from another dimension; it was very nourishing.
