The Wang Family had all gone to the temple fair, and no one was left at home.
Initially, Divine Doctor Xue and Liang Xue were still around, but Divine Doctor Xue had a last-minute appointment to meet an old friend and brought Liang Xue along.
There was no one at home.
Most of the people in the village had also gone to the Xiashan Village. Everyone wanted to join in the fun and watch the temple fair.
Old Master Hu and the others were old, so they naturally didn't follow.
They wandered around the village, wanting to help keep a lookout.
Every time during the new year, there would always be some desperate people who would come to the village to ask for food.
Therefore, there were a few young men placed in the village to guard it.
There were also some bailiffs who would patrol the various villages and towns these few days to specially deal with these situations.
