Not far from Ruyang City lay an inconspicuous small town, the first market town they had seen since leaving the imperial mausoleum. It comprised no more than a hundred families, yet every two days, villagers from nearby settlements gathered here to barter their goods, making the place seem rather lively. As they entered the town, the marketplace was bustling. Tan Jizhi had changed his attire, and the trio—looking like an ordinary grandfather with a young couple—drew little attention.
