Fu Miaoxue nodded repeatedly, "Okay, let's take them back to eat~"
She asked again, "What else can we eat? I'm so hungry!"
Du Lai glanced at the sky and said, "Let's call it a day, we need to set up the tent with the remaining time."
"Alright~ Let's go set up the tent!" Fu Miaoxue agreed readily.
The two carried a pile of clams and bamboo tubes back, as the sky gradually darkened, the wind howled, and the jungle grew gloomy. They walked silently one after the other towards the distant firelight that felt like a beacon guiding them home.
Even though both knew, how could that place be called home? It was just a bare stone cave.
...
Back at the big rock, the campfire was still burning. Du Lai turned the cage upside down on the fire. When the birdcage's base was flipped over, it became a slightly concave metal plate.
Without any usable tools or seasonings, he threw a pile of clams, washed only with seawater, onto the plate to grill. In no time, the sizzle could be heard.
