The horse carried Adrian and Ervin into the town, where the Christmas atmosphere was particularly strong.
A circle of houses surrounded a central square, which was the local market. Villagers from nearby set up stalls here, and the stalls were filled with vegetables and fruits they grew themselves, including common ones like potatoes and tomatoes, as well as ones Ervin had never seen before, such as the "bayberry" that he had no idea how to eat at home, and all kinds of strange mushrooms.
It was the first time for Ervin to go to the rural market in Country B. He had been locked up in that stone house for a long time, so it was the first time for him to see a strange environment and strange people in all those days. His eyes were rolling around, and he felt it was particularly fresh. The local villagers also looked at them with kind and warm smiles.
Adrian took Ervin's hand and said gently, "What do you want? Pick it yourself."
Soo Bin asked, "Did everything we ate before come from here?"
