"The weather's dry, things are parched! Be careful with fire and candles!~"
CLACK, CLACK~~
The sound of the clapper rang out. It was already hai shi, a little after nine at night, and the Night Watchman had begun his rounds.
Many homes in the city had already shut their doors, but not all the lamps were extinguished yet. A few latecomers could still be seen on the streets...
Under Zhou Xing's lead, Qin Fang followed him through a winding, twisting path. After walking for a good half-hour, they arrived at a city gate.
This was the South Gate.
"The marketplace isn't like the county seat. Even though Xu Meng will be looking after you, you have to be careful... These gangs of theirs are always fighting and killing each other for control of the fish market. Be smart and don't get dragged into that mess... Just stay there and lie low. Once things blow over in the city and I've taken care of your Identity papers, you can come back."
