Hidden Grounds (2)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

 Great Xia, Chao'an County. 

 The scorching sun burned the ground, and although many people walked on the street, only a few held parasols. They walked with hurried steps, from one shop to another. 

 The gray wooden buildings occasionally made crackling noises under the fiery sun. 

 In the Green Coat Inn to the south of the County Capital, two servers were lazily sitting on a long bench inside of the entrance. They held a wooden basin filled with cold water, and constantly wetted the floor. 

 As soon as the water touched the ground, a wave of dust would puff up visibly, along with a faint sign of steam.
