"For now, the most important thing is to help our most injured companions heal," Wu Ling said as he looked over the group. "To do that, Brother Yu needs a place to tend to them and plenty of clean water. We're not far from the shore of the lake where Sister Xiang and I observed the eclipse. I remember several stands of bamboo near the lake the last time we were here so I'm going to go look for one with Sister Xiang and Hou," he explained.
"Once we find a good place to establish a temporary camp, I'll start clearing a site while Sister Xiang comes back to fetch everyone else. We can build a quick litter to transport Brother Fang while we're at it. Once everyone gets there, Brother Zhang, I'll be looking to you and Brother Xiong for help building a hut where Brother Yu can tend to the injured."
"Of course," Zhang Buyan said, thumping his chest lightly with a fist. "I'll help however I can."
