The group from Hua Village waited, while along the necessary path out of town, another group was waiting for them, preparing for the arrival of these fat sheep.
They sat for a whole afternoon, casually ate some vegetable buns, and everyone took turns to sleep for a while, except for those on watch, until dusk deepened, and everyone was refreshed.
Then... finally came the village chief's voice they'd been anticipating, and they each shouldered a large basket, following Hua Jing, who led the way as they quickly navigated through the town's small paths.
After this journey, everyone became increasingly convinced of Hua Jing's guiding skills. Though they took a slight detour, they didn't encounter a single soul and avoided much unnecessary trouble. Everyone walked swiftly.
Unknowingly, they left the town, disappearing into the night.
