This is the dream world, don't find it strange.
The creations of the god of dreams are so bizarre and outlandish.
There are many monsters here transformed from people who became addicted to dreams and lost their sense of self.
So that monster wearing a woman's skin could very well have been a woman originally.
Of course, it could have been a man as well, reveling about in his deep, dark dreams while donning a woman's skin.
There was a teahouse by the road, its lights were warm, and several monsters dressed in similarly warm tones were brewing tea inside, serving it to customers.
Ma Lin went in, took a look around, and saw that the tea was very ordinary.
So he also sat down.
In this seemingly insane city, such a place that could comfort one's mood was rare.
He first drank a cup of tea, then ate a piece of sesame cake.
He had coins given to him by Master Yan, so there was no need to skimp on food and drink.
