Shen Qing and his companions hurried along, and finally arrived at Hongshan Village by dusk.
By this time, most of the villagers who had gone hunting had already descended, and the village was much livelier compared to the daytime.
The cart rumbled over the stone path at the village entrance, raising a layer of mud, and passed through the entrance of Hongshan Village.
Some villagers dressed in dog skin poked their heads out, spotted Shen Qing and his group, and said, "Hey, isn't that Qingzi and his crew? Finally back!"
With his shout, other villagers, who were idle with nothing to do, also gathered around.
"Qingzi, why didn't you come back yesterday?" a villager teased with a grin, "Everyone was joking, saying you traded the mountain goods for money and stayed in the city to enjoy yourself, never to return."
