Early on the morning of the 23rd, just as the sky was beginning to lighten, Li Xiang used the Divine Movement Technique to head to the county town. Ever since he got this skill, he couldn't be bothered to drive his three-wheeler unless absolutely necessary. The heavy snow hadn't completely melted yet, so riding the three-wheeler wasn't a great option anyway.
The only problem was that using this skill was like being a thief; he had to be sneaky about it. The main issue was that he ran too fast. If anyone saw him, it would be utterly shocking. So, he took advantage of the pre-dawn dimness, sticking to the less-traveled mountain forests.
Once in town, he bought the Christmas presents he needed, restocked on snacks for the house, and figured the festive atmosphere would need some music. Since his laptop's speakers were too quiet, Li Xiang went back to the digital store he'd visited before, planning to buy a speaker.
