Just like that, before Old Uncle Qiu could react, Bai Junjun had taken off two of her three constant companions, the water bladders. She kept only one and, equipped with her newest gear, scurried off in the direction the team had departed.
Old Uncle Qiu watched her leave, truly anxious.
Xiao Chan, who had stayed behind to oversee everything, walked over and glanced doubtfully at Bai Junjun as she gradually ran farther away.
"Where is she going?"
"Err... She still needs some materials to process arsenic, so she went to find them."
Old Uncle Qiu was startled, but fortunately, having seen much of the world in his youth, he quickly regained his bearings.
Xiao Chan didn't take it too hard. He bowed solemnly to Old Uncle Qiu and said, "Hello, I am Xiao Chan from the Seven-Person Team. May I ask how to address the elder?"
"No need for such formalities, Brother Xiao Chan. Just call me Old Uncle Qiu."
Old Uncle Qiu, slightly embarrassed, waved his hand dismissively.
