Before arriving here, Cai Bing had already spoken with Feng Yi, so Feng Yi was well-prepared.
"Then please ask them to help."
The villagers used fire with great caution; they smoked the house with certain dried plants, perhaps sprinkled with some sort of liquid, which had a complex odor. It was somewhat irritating to Feng Yi's sensitive sense of smell. There was no toxicity, but he found the smell unpleasant, so he kept his distance. Only after the villagers had finished smoking the house and open the doors to clear out the smell did Feng Yi approach.
After the villagers left, Jia and Ding began to tidy up the house.
Although the villagers had cleaned the place once, some arrangements still needed their personal touch.
"There's no rush to get things done. We need to get this house in order first. We're going to be staying here for a few days," said Cai Bing.
