On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the City God took to the streets, going out to cleanse the miasma for the people and bless them with longevity.
After receiving blessings, the people would flock to the City God Temple on this day to burn incense, pray, pay tribute, and express their gratitude for the protection of the City God Lord.
Both inside and outside the Xiang Hall of the City God Temple, and even along the long street outside, the area was packed with thousands of people.
If Chen Ku had been paying attention, he would have recognized one of the familiar faces among those thousands: Che Wenping, with whom he had shared a large bunk while working as an assistant at the Medicine King Hall.
