Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The villagers of Xiaozhai Village were taken aback to find that the old village chief did not lead them to leave as expected. Instead, he gave a passionate speech, expressing his intention to share the fate of the whole village.
What was even stranger was that after a private conversation with the village chief, several of the 'prominent figures' in the village also chose to stay.
Prestige and conformity are strange things.
Seeing that the 'prominent figures' in the village had stayed, most of the other villagers chose to do the same.
And after living in fear for a few days, they found that things seemed... the same as before.
Aside from having to be extra cautious when going out to work in the fields, the village was as peaceful as ever, and their hearts gradually settled down.
The night of the full moon.
Xu Changqing, focusing on the bright moon, practiced the 'Celestial Dog Swallows the Moon Style'.
