Red Cotton Peak.
Named for the red cotton flowers that bloom on its summit all year round.
There's a patch of open ground on this peak which was previously a shrine, now abandoned. The path leading to it is clean and tidy on either side, surrounded by ruins. It eventually became a place where disciples of the Shu Mountain Sect set up their stalls, and over time evolved into a small flea market called Red Cotton Market.
Compared to the precious and fixed-priced items sold at the sect's front hall, the items on sale at Red Cotton Market come from the disciples' own stalls and thus offer a wider variety and more room for negotiation. Buyers might get swindled, but they might also stumble upon a real bargain. Many Shu Mountain disciples even enjoy shopping here without buying anything.
But this was Chu Liang's first time visiting.
