Early morning sunlight, like golden threads, gently bathed the market of Taoyuan Village. The market was already bustling with activity, filled with an endless stream of coming and going people.
The streets on both sides were lined with various stalls. There were vendors selling fresh fruits and vegetables, brightly colored and exuding an enticing aroma. There were artisans selling handicrafts, with exquisite embroidery and rustic wood carvings catching the eyes of passersby. There were also snack vendors, offering steaming hot steamed buns and fragrant fried dough sticks that made people's mouths water.
In the center of the market was a wide open space, usually a place for villagers to trade and entertain, but today it seemed to harbor an unusual atmosphere.
