Shen MO asked, âNot eating anymore?â
Bai Youwei pouted, âThis is just an appetizer.â
Shen MO didnât want to go, frowning at the distant lake water, âYou just want to offer me up as an appetizer to the mosquitoes.â
âAhahaha!â¦â Tan Xiao burst into laughter, âBrother MO, you are so funny!
Serving as food for mosquitoes hahahaha⦠hicâ¦â
Bai Youweiâs little face fell. She turned around with her crutch and went back to the tent.
She didnât say anything, but the implication was clear: she wasnât going to eat anymore.
She was acting rather high and mighty, refusing not only to eat the lotus seeds but also not having any dinner!
Shen MO put down the map in his hand and said to Tan Xiao, âWhat you said earlier was quite accurate.â
âEh? Which part?â Tan Xiao asked with wide-open eyes, âThe funny part?â Shen MO slowly took off his upper garment, âYou said, itâs better in the maze.â In the maze, she never acted this way.
Eh? Brother MO, where are you heading? Are you seriously going to feed the mosquitoes?⦠Ah, take me with you, take me with you! Iâll go catch a fish!â
Half an hour later.
They started eating.
Bai Youwei sat by the fire, a large lotus leaf laid on her lap, happily peeling lotus seeds to eat.
The green lotus seeds made a rustling sound as they fell onto the lotus leaf, forming a pile before being shaken off into the fire, producing a fragrant grassy smell.
After eating two lotus seeds, Shen MO, fearing she might have an upset stomach, didnât let her eat anymore.
He dug a well-roasted sweet potato out of the fire, put it in a large porcelain bowl, peeled off a layer of the ashen skin to reveal the honey-orange flesh, gave her a small spoon, and let her dig in.
The sweet potato was steaming hot, and the inside was sweet and gooey. You take a bite, blow on it, and then swallow, itâs so soft and sweet that it makes your teeth feel sugary.
Teacher Chang gave her a bowl of mung bean soup, without sugar. The taste was mild, but it was perfect for counteracting the sweetness of the roasted sweet potato.
Eating and drinking, Bai Youwei found herself content and comfortable.
Tan Xiao, nibbling on a sausage and poking at the fire with a wooden stick, said, âDonât you guys think⦠weâre kind of like a group? Do we remind you of a pilgrimage? They faced the eighty-one trials, we complete puzzles while gaming. â
Teacher Chang chuckled upon hearing this, âIn the âJourney to the West,â they faced the sea of death, who would be their boat? As they passed through the long night of ignorance, who would be their torch? If we are fortunate this time, we can emulate Xuanzang and be a light for the lost souls in the sea of suffering.â
Tan Xiao didnât quite understand, but he found the grouping of four words used by Teacher Chang intriguing and suggested, âTeacher Chang, since youâre so cultured, how about you come up with a group name for us?â
Teacher Chang was taken aback, âA group name?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHow do you not know?â Tan Xiao began to explain using his fingers, âThe Two
Elders of the Mysterious Void, The Three Sages of Kunlun, The Four Heavenly Kings, The Five Elders of Kongtong, The Six Immortals of Taoyuan, The Seven Freaks of the South⦠like these.
Teacher Chang suddenly understood, âOh, let me thinkâ¦â
Bai Youwei grinned as she kept eating, amused that Teacher Chang, with his stern countenance, was seriously considering Tan Xiaoâs suggestion and brainstorming names.
âWe are four people, coming from different places, being together like a family, how about⦠Four Oceans, One Family?â
âAhâ¦â Tan Xiao said, âThat doesnât sound very imposing. Try again.â
Chang Weicai suggested, âIn the old days, there were the Four Talents of the Study, representing the brush, ink, paper, and ink-stand. We could each take one character from there.â
âOh, let me thinkâ¦â Tan Xiao mused, âFlowers, birds, fish, insects?⦠Wolves, tigers, leopards? Demons, ghosts, ghouls, goblins? Hey, why canât we find any good words with four characters?â
Bai Youwei could no longer hold back her laughter and exclaimed, âHow about calling us and the Old, Young, Sick, and Crippled!â
Tan Xiao:
Chang Weicai: â
Shen MO, while tending to the fire, asked nonchalantly, âSo, which one am I among the Old, Young, Sick, and Crippled?â
