Lu Xun and the others, suspicious, followed the middle-aged man into the village, leaving only the mumbling old man still muttering impossibilities.
Once inside the village, they discovered that it was very warmly arranged, with each household appearing to have an endless supply of food, and pork hanging from the beams, a scene only found in a time of prosperity.
