A dilapidated station.
A large group of people led their caravan to check in.
The desolate and silent station quickly bustled with activity.
Jie Jia Cheng Ming and others found a secluded corner to settle their luggage.
Ever since the conflict with the bald strongman, Jie Jia had been excluded by the other guards of the Xue family's warehouses.
Cheng Ming and these "relatives" of Jie Jia were also not welcomed.
Every day, they rested and stayed separate from the main group.
Cheng Ming found the quiet enjoyable.
He dug a pit on the spot, surrounded it with stones, tossed in some firewood to ignite it, and a simple fire pit was created. Two wooden stakes as thick as arms were erected on either side, with two wild rabbits suspended above the flames for roasting.
Cheng Ming constantly turned the meat, occasionally sprinkling some special seasoning, the fragrance wafting everywhere.
