When Qiao Xixi opened her eyes again, it was already bright daylight outside.
She sat up and smelled the aroma of roasting meat coming from outside.
Feiyan was no longer in the shelter, but Sangze was still lying safely beside her. She reached out to touch Sangze's forehead, and only after confirming his temperature was normal did she get up and leave the shelter.
Once outside, Sunxiao walked over and pointed to a large leaf pouch nearby, which was filled with clean water.
"You're awake. I've brought back some water. Go wash up."
Qiao Xixi grunted in acknowledgment and went to freshen up.
After cleaning up, she sat down next to Feiyan, who was roasting meat. She picked up a branch to poke at the fire, quickly flipping over a piece of meat that was about to burn.
After eating their fill, they prepared to continue their journey. If all went smoothly, they would be able to return to the tribe before dark.
