After leaving Xuanzheng Hall, Lv Qianfeng led his men out of the city for another search. This time, they went further, to the point where there wasn't a trace of human habitation. The desolate grasslands and hills, after a winter of frost and snow, appeared desolate, as if that desolation had already placed itself before Lv Qianfeng.
Until he couldn't find anything more, he finally led the crowd back to the city.
Upon returning, Lv Qianfeng dismissed the others to rest while he, with a dust-covered face, went to a tavern on the long street, sat by the window, and drank alone. As time slowly passed, he unknowingly drank two jars of wine.
The moon was at its zenith.
After pouring the last drop of wine from the jar into his bowl, Lv Qianfeng impatiently shouted, "Waiter, another jar!"
