While the three of them were having a merry time playing in the river, the rest of the group on the bank began preparing lunch. Wen Ning had almost finished processing the fish, and Lan Sizhui stepped forward to help. The two of them cleaned the fish thoroughly while the others lit the campfire. They skewered the fish on tree branches, thrust them diagonally into the ground beside the flames, and moved on to other tasks. When Hua Cheng went hunting for wild pheasants, he had picked up a dozen wild eggs, which he now tossed near the campfire to roast slowly.
The grilled fish was ready in less than half an hour. This time, they had brought a complete set of provisions; enhanced by the seasonings, the mouthwatering aroma drifted for miles. Wei Wuxian, Xie Lian, and Hua Yuan no longer felt like playing.They strode briskly back to the bank and had Shen Qingqiu cast cleansing incantations on them, making their clothes fresh and new once again.
After putting on his outer robe, Wei Wuxian grabbed a grilled fish and leaned against a tree trunk to eat.
