Standing at the gate of Yuanshi City, a sense of ancient simplicity hits you in the face.

I didn't expect that it was just rebuilt on the old site, but it looks as if Yuanshi City itself is like this.

Because it is a reconstruction of an ancient city, all the buildings here are built in imitation of ancient buildings, including the layout and road planning. There is even a huge city gate outside the city and a wide moat.

Walking into Yuanshi City, you will find that every detail inside is well-crafted and full of ancient charm.

Song Tang has seen the overall layout of Yuanshi City. Apart from one main road and a few traffic arteries which are wide modern driveways, the majority of them are various pedestrian streets.

Walking on the pedestrian street, Song Tang always had the illusion that he was still a thousand years ago.

No wonder this place has become a well-known tourist city, the ancient atmosphere is indeed very strong.

You can see many tourists around, some of them wearing Hanfu and taking photos everywhere.

I noticed that almost all the shops were decorated with red lotus lanterns hanging at the door. Some shops even had dolls of little fairies with different expressions placed outside.

Some of them sit on gourds, some step on lotus flowers, and some sit on the back of green cows, and most of them have smiling expressions.

There were many children on the street, running around with similar masks, and the festive atmosphere seemed to be quite strong.

"Hello, I see everyone is holding this kind of mask." Song Tang pulled an aunt who was passing by with her child.

When the aunt saw that Song Tang was also with her two children, she immediately recommended enthusiastically: "You are bringing your two sisters here for a trip, right? Girl, you have come at the right time! It is the God Worship Festival in three days, which is the most grand event of the year here."

"Not only will there be various special activities to participate in, but you can also watch shows, which is really interesting! This mask is made to imitate the appearance of the fairy child during the annual God Worship Festival, and many stores there are selling it."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction he had just come from.

Song Tang followed the direction she pointed and didn't see any mask. He nodded as if nothing had happened and said thank you.

After knowing what it was, Song Tang did not rush to take Wei Yan and A Li there, but went to the inn under the name of Xuanmen as planned.

After arriving at the inn, she finally realized how powerful the Festival of Worshipping God that the auntie she met on the street talked about was.

"Fortunately, we have a courtyard reserved for people of the same trade. Otherwise, if you come here at this time, you won't be able to find even a single room in the entire city."

The guide Achen is also a member of their Xuanmen, and is mainly responsible for Xuanmen’s industries in Yuanshi City.

Firstly, there is a large source of customers here, especially during the peak season every year, so you can really make a lot of money.

Secondly, Yuanshi City is quite special, a bit like a ghost village, so every year people from the Xuanmen come to check on the situation.

The people who came to investigate this year found something wrong and reported it immediately. Song Tang and his team came here on a mission.

"This is it. This yard is for you to use." Achen pushed open the door, revealing a fairly large courtyard.

There are many flowers and plants planted in the yard, especially a wall covered with roses. At this time, there are many red, white and pink roses, crowded together and blooming.

Next to it are two swings, the kind made of rattan that are big enough for a person to lie down in.

Opposite the swing is a wisteria trellis and underneath is a long table.

The whole yard looks quite literary and artistic, and it is obvious that it has been carefully decorated.

"Of course! Now that we are here, we should make sure everyone is comfortable." Ah Chen straightened his back slightly. "I asked someone to design this place. I guarantee you will never want to leave again."

After settling Song Tang and his group, Ah Chen specifically instructed before leaving: "There is a ready-made kitchen here, and I have already prepared things in the refrigerator. From now on, someone will deliver fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs, etc. every day."

"If you have any hometown dishes you want to eat, you can tell me and I'll have someone prepare them. If you really don't want to cook, you can eat at the inn. You can have a good rest today, and I'll come over tomorrow to tell you about Yuanshi City."

"Thank you."

After seeing Achen off, Song Tang returned to the yard.

As soon as the outsiders left, Mingyuan started to have fun in the yard, and even enthusiastically pulled Ali with him.

Ah Li couldn't speak or respond, but she could actually understand what everyone was saying. So when Mingyuan went over to pull her, she followed him obediently.

The rest of the people sat under the wisteria trellis, watching Mingyuan chatting one-sidedly with A-li with a smile on their faces.

Wei Yan sat with them, looking over there all the time, as if he really wanted to join in.

"There's nothing to do today, so just go if you want to." Song Tang couldn't help but suggest.

After a short time together, Song Tang got to know Wei Yan a little.

Although Wei Yan appears to be an adult, he is actually still like a child at heart and is relatively insensitive to the outside world.

For example, Wei Yan is actually not able to immediately detect other people’s unfriendly behavior, and most of the time he needs Ali to remind him.

I don't know if it's because the corpse drivers have been in a relatively closed state for a long time, and Wei Yan is naturally good at speaking in a heart-wrenching way.

"Forget it, I won't go." Wei Yan sighed heavily like an adult, "What if you mess things up when I'm not here? I'll still be in trouble then! I'm still not confident about you guys."

Wei Yan spoke seriously, his eyes sweeping over everyone present, except Song Tang.

That expression seemed to be saying, I'm not targeting anyone, I'm saying that everyone here is garbage!

Being despised by a little girl who had just reached adulthood, even Mingxin, a Buddhist monk, looked dissatisfied.

It seems that Wei Yan does have some ability, otherwise he would have been beaten to death long ago with the way he spoke.

Everyone couldn't help but think silently.

"Let's talk business." Wei Yan's words silenced everyone. Lou Shao took the initiative to take on the responsibility of livening up the atmosphere. "I heard from my senior brother that there will be a festival of worshipping gods here in three days. There will be more people then, so we must not let anything go wrong during these few days."

Song Tang nodded, took over the conversation and continued, "You can ask Ah Chen about the matter of the God Worship Festival tomorrow. Today we can look around and see if there are any other clues."

Although I knew this was a tourist town when I came here, I didn't expect it to happen to be a festival of worshipping gods, and the number of tourists here was several times more than usual.

The more people there are, the more disadvantageous it will be for their investigation. If ordinary people see the suspected ghost soldiers patrolling the city, they will have a hard time explaining themselves.

Most importantly, the reported information also included suspected cases of missing persons.

It would be fine if it was just a coincidence and had nothing to do with the sighting of the ghost soldiers.

Song Tang is the best at finding people. When the time comes, he will just need to cooperate with the relevant parties to find the person.

I’m afraid there’s a connection between the two, which would be quite troublesome.
