Su Yuhan had already prepared a set of dry clothes for ye chen when she saw that it was about to end. Then, she waited anxiously at the side. After the big lizard was finally killed, ye chen deliberately showered for a while to wash away the blood on his body.

Then, he walked back to the rain outside the cave step by step. Because the lizard’s death had gradually returned to normal, the sun had already come out in a short while.

All of a sudden, the forest seemed to have returned to a different state, completely different from when they had first arrived.

It wasn’t just because of the weather, but also because of the invisible aura that felt very different. In short, it looked very comfortable.

Ye chen immediately changed his clothes, packed up his things in the cave, and followed them out. It was no longer raining outside.

In that case, they would have to hurry to Stone City. They did not expect to encounter such a troublesome incident, but fortunately, it was over.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring you to have fun after we enter the city this time. It’s absolutely impossible for such a nonsensical thing to happen again.”

Ye chen said, a little embarrassed. Then, he took his lover’s hand.

Su Yuhan didn’t mind and even hugged him.

“It’s okay. I think it’s quite interesting. It won’t hurt us anyway. Besides, we don’t have to care so much when we’re out playing. It’s fine as long as you’re by our side.”

In the end, ye chen and Peng Fei sat on Peng Fei’s back and chatted. Peng Fei’s speed increased even more. He was pregnant with many mountains and just looking at them was tiring.

However, for a demonic beast like Peng Fei, which was almost an advanced version, it wasn’t very tiring to run such a long distance.

In comparison, it would definitely be more tiring to encounter an enemy.

Therefore, as a Mount, Peng Fei felt that it was great to be by ye Chen’s side. After all, his master would always stand bravely in front of him.

There was no need for him, a Mount, to run around for this, so this was really a very good job.

He was truly grateful to his master. After all, without ye chen, he would most likely be sealed in that forest forever, not knowing what would happen in the future.

And their race might have been completely annihilated at that time.

If ye chen had not suddenly appeared like a Savior, it was clear that the outcome would not have been changed.

Peng Fei continued to fly, gradually slowing down his speed. This way, it would reduce the bumps, and at the same time, it indicated that they were approaching Stone City.

After all, the stone city was surrounded by Plains, so they didn’t have to fly over the valleys.

When ye chen and the others looked down again, they could already see Stone City not far away. Peng Fei was flapping his wings and his speed was getting slower and slower.

After that, they dropped a lot and stopped on a flat land beside a forest outside the stone city.

This place was less than half a kilometer away from the city gate. It was convenient for ye chen and the others to go there.

After all, it really wasn’t appropriate for a giant like Peng Fei to wander around.

Moreover, he did not really like the city. It was better to let him wander around the mountains and wait for ye chen to call him out when he needed it.

After ye chen and su Yuhan sent Tengfei off, they walked to Stone City together. It was noon now, so they could enter the city to eat its specialty food.

They had heard that the stone city’s culture and customs were very good. Now that they had gone there to see it for themselves, the two of them were indeed a little hungry.

When he walked over, he saw the city gate that was wide open. It was obvious that this area should be very safe, which was why it was so open.

The two of them walked in together. In the middle, they were only briefly searched by the soldiers, and then they entered the city together.

This Stone City was indeed a Stone City. From the outside, it was basically built with large stones, but it was almost the same inside.

There were no houses either. Most of them were made of bricks. On the contrary, most of them were made of stone. It could be seen that there was a lot of them.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the market and used the first shop that they saw. Shi TOU was currently pooping.

It looked white, so it must taste good. The two of them went up and asked for the price.

“You only need five coppers to get one.”

“Alright, give us one.”

Ye chen happily paid the money and watched as the uncle placed the Daddi he had poured aside. Then, he cut it into small pieces and placed them in a bag.

At the same time, he also poured some soybean flour and red sugar syrup into it, which made it look even more delicious.

Two wooden sticks were stuck on it, and the uncle handed it to su Yuhan.

“Quickly try it.” Ye chen said with a smile. The two of them ate as they walked forward. They saw more unique delicacies and many of the tools were made of stone.

The two of them went to try some other small things before they walked to a restaurant.

“Let’s stay here for the night. The conditions and environment here look quite good, and it’s close to the market. Tomorrow, we’ll go and see if there’s anything convenient to buy and bring back.”

“Alright,” he said.

The two of them walked into the restaurant together. First, they told the manager at the front desk to reserve a room. Then, they ordered a few dishes and waited at the side, ready to have lunch.

“I just heard the shopkeeper say that they have a Festival in the same city these days. Since we’re here, let’s go and join in the fun. I heard that there’s a small opening ceremony tonight.”

Ye chen grabbed a few peanuts and suggested to su Yuhan as he ate.

“Of course you can.”

The two of them then called over a bunch of waiters who were idle and asked him about it.

The waiter was also a Chatterbox. Moreover, ye chen had given him a reward. He immediately introduced the special festival in Stone City to them.

It turned out that every year, there would be a holiday that lasted for a week in the last few days of this season. From the first day onwards, it would be the most vigorous. Everyone would gather on the streets and hold lamps in their hands at night. Then, they would come out together to perform.

They would light a huge bonfire in the middle of the city and dance around it.

It was the same on the last day. In the middle days, everyone would wear different masks every night to make friends. In these days, everyone was basically equal, and there was no such thing as poor or poor.

Because they were all wearing the same clothes.

This atmosphere was very intense, and it had been going on for more than a hundred years.

The waiter was beaming with joy when he talked about happiness. In short, he had roughly explained all the things that needed to be done in the next few days.

Ye chen and the others nodded after listening. They were also full of anticipation for this Festival. At the same time, they had to go out in the afternoon to buy a mask.

This way, it would be easier to blend in. According to the waiter, everyone would wear a mask at night.

When the time came, it would seem a little abrupt if they didn’t bring it. When in Rome, do as the Romans do, not to mention that they were here to play.

The two of them had a good meal to replenish themselves. They ate the monotonous food on camel mountain peak and then took a nap in the restaurant.

In the afternoon, they went to the busiest market in the area according to the directions given by the waiter.

Most of the places they went to in the morning were places that sold food. The next street would have a lot of small things.

Perhaps it was because there was an opening ceremony in the evening, so there was a lot of shopping in the afternoon.

Moreover, there were many townspeople who were buying these masks, earrings, and clothes on the streets. They were all piled up outside and displayed.

Su Yuhan was very happy to see this. She had always liked these little things, not to mention that she had promised to buy something for her daughter.

With a glance, she already saw a few headdresses that were very suitable for her younger daughter’s age.

This was something that couldn’t be bought in their world, so they could just buy some new things here.

Ye chenjiao followed behind. Basically, he only had to pay for the things his wife took.

When the two of them strolled around, they finally experienced this kind of straightforward fun.

The reputation here was very simple, so they didn’t spend much money on one round, but they had already bought all the things they needed for the day.

Su Yuhan also bought a lot of other small things, which filled a cloth bag.

Then, the two of them returned to the restaurant with great satisfaction. They put the things upstairs first before going downstairs. They planned to eat less dinner before going out to play with the masks.

It was almost dark outside. According to the innkeeper and the waiter, it would be even redder after dark, and the lights on the street would not go out for the whole night.

After ye chen and the others returned to their rooms, they first changed their clothes, then put on masks for each other before going downstairs together.

The masks here were also very unique in design. The patterns on them were rarely seen, but they were drawn from various small things in life.

In short, it looked very detailed and very beautiful. When put together, it would make people’s eyes light up. They had already thought it looked very good when they bought it in the afternoon.

Ye chen arrived at the night market on the street at the beginning of the first lunar month. It was just as the shop owner and the waiter had said. At this time, the street had begun to become lively with people selling snacks on both sides. As they walked forward, they saw a crowd of people gathered together. There was a performance going on.

It looked like a very good performance. Several people were stacked together on stilts.

Ye chen brought su Yuhan to the side. As he was watching, he suddenly felt his clothes being pulled.

He looked down and saw a little girl holding a few wreaths in her hand. She was wearing a very cute mask and asked him very carefully.

“Uncle, can you buy this big sister a little flower?”

Her tender voice was simply too cute. Ye chen could not refuse such a little girl at all, so he took out a few copper coins and handed them to her.

He took a flower garland from her hand, and it was obvious that the little girl wanted to tell him that he didn’t need so much money.

However, ye chen did not continue to talk to the little girl. He just smiled and patted her head. Then, he turned around and put the garland on su Yuhan’s head.

A Garland made of many different kinds of flowers still looked beautiful even in the hazy night.

“How is it? Isn’t she pretty?”

Su Yuhan asked with a smile as she had heard their conversation.

“Of course, it’ll look the best on your head,”

The two of them were obviously influenced by the lively environment here, and they started dancing with the other city people.

He didn’t even know how much time had passed, but he had a very happy night.

After the party, he returned to the restaurant and prepared to have a good sleep, because it was obviously late at night.

Moreover, the waiter said that the next morning, the merchants were basically not open until lunch time.

They couldn’t stop for the next few days, but what they didn’t expect was that the two of them had just gotten up and were about to go downstairs to order a few dishes for lunch.

He heard the shopkeeper discussing something with the waiter in a frightened manner.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but the city gates have already closed today. It looks like the city will definitely be sealed for the next few days.”

The waiter said angrily.

Ye chen and the others walked over and asked,”What’s wrong? What happened? Why did they lock the city gate? How many days will it be locked?”

“I don’t know yet, but it shouldn’t be long, probably in three or four days. In any case, I guess our Festival this time won’t continue to be lively.”

After that, the waiter explained the situation to ye chen and the other two guests who had come from afar.

It turned out that these few days were supposed to be revelry days. Everyone was the same yesterday, but this morning, a piece of news suddenly broke out.

According to the rumors, the demonic beasts in the forest had started to awaken.

The mages in the city immediately sealed off the city after calculating this.

This happened almost every one or two years, but this time, they didn’t expect it to be a holiday.

“Then what color is it inside? Does he attack Stone City every time?”

“That’s about it. Every time the mages calculate it in advance, they will lock the door. Then, every night, they will hear a very miserable sound, as if something outside is trying to break in, and it is very unstable at the gate.”

The waiter had actually heard a part of this, but what he said was indeed very mysterious. After all, such rumors would only get bigger and bigger as they spread.

After hearing this, ye chen decided to go and check it out himself. He didn’t want such a good Festival to be interrupted by other things.
