In the brief moment he turned, Qin Fang pulled the bottle of mysterious liquid from his robes. He saw his senior brother was still muttering about Mingjin, Anjin, and something called 'Water-like Intent'… When Monkey brought the water over, he nodded and took it.
As Monkey turned to sit back down, he poured a drop of the mysterious liquid into the cup.

"Senior Brother, have some water."
His senior brother took it automatically and, still deep in thought, downed the water in one gulp.
