Long Zhao Feng and Xiao Yue told the Village Chief that they were a married couple so that they would be given one single bed-chamber for the night. Two mattresses were laid side-by-side on the floor. The Village Head thankfully also had two sets of thick quilt to spare, else they might have to borrow from other villagers.
The village ceased its activities around 8 to 9 PM. While everyone else slept and darkness slowly descended over the village, a single candle still burned inside a chamber in the Village Head's house. Long Zhao Feng and Xiao Yue huddled together around the single candle and talked in a low voice. After hearing about the man-eating monsters, they were wide awake. Sleeping was the last thing on their mind.
"What do you know about the Three Realms Peak?"
