The night was just right. When they looked up, the Milky Way was hanging overhead, which was rare in the city. It was common to see it on the mountain, but it was extremely rare to see the Milky Way and the bright moon hanging in the sky together.
In the moonless night sky, the darkest star visible to ordinary people was 6.5 magnitude. If there was a bright moon in the sky, one could only see stars with a brightness of 4.5 magnitude. The number of stars in the sky was reduced by 80 to 90 percent in an instant, and the Milky Way sank behind the moonlight.
Starlight shone through the forest and fell on their feet. There were broken branches among the rotten leaves, and the squeaking sound was especially ear-piercing when they deliberately walked lightly. Qin Yanan felt her cheeks were a little sore when she clenched her teeth. Her and Liu Changan's footsteps had finally disturbed the couple.
"Someone … seems to be …"
"Maybe it's a wild beast in the mountain …"
"Ah …"
Such a conversation made Qin Yanan unable to bear it. She ran forward and then heard the woman's scream. Qin Yanan ran all the way to the hillside before stopping.
Liu Changan caught up and looked at Qin Yanan who was holding a thick maple tree.
"I really don't know what these people are thinking. Don't they have enough money to get a room? " Qin Yanan blushed, "And they call us wild beasts … they are the ones who are having sex."
"That's possible." Liu Changan agreed, "There are still a large number of poor people in our country. Most of the people around Lushan are students. For the students, it's hard to afford the frequent hotel fees."
Liu Changan's serious explanation made Qin Yanan speechless. It seemed that she should really be considerate of others and not say, "Why not eat minced meat?"
"What's more, Lushan's Love Evening Pavilion is one of the four traditional places to enjoy maple trees. There's a poem: On the distant cold mountain stone path, there's a house deep in the clouds. Stop and sit in the Love Maple Forest in the evening, the frost moon is redder than the flowers in February. " Liu Changan nodded, "Maybe they really think it's an elegant thing. It's rare for them to choose such an extremely remote place, but they didn't expect that we, who have the same interest as them, would come here."
"Have the same interest?" Qin Yanan pressed her chest, her fingers pulling the zipper up and down with the rhythm of her breathing. Her cheeks were as red as the surrounding maple leaves.
"Don't misunderstand what I mean. Have the same interest means that we both have the mentality of traveling in the night. What's going on in that head of yours at such a young age? "Liu Changan knocked Qin Yanan's head lightly, then walked around the maple tree and continued forward.
Again, Qin Yanan had to experience with Liu Changan, but she couldn't do it. She couldn't help but to say.. and Qin Yan.., she.. to to. yan.., she. She.
Going down the slope, groping in the forest, pushing aside the bushes and thorns, Liu Changan and Qin Yanan came to a tree full of long vines, looking at the valley in front of them.
Before 2010, Lushan Scenic Area was not very prosperous. Like many tourist attractions, they tried to increase their income, so they contracted out the valley next to the small lake. A wedding photography company built a three-story European-style long building here, surrounded by rose gardens, white piano, suspension bridge, rocking chairs, semicircular arches, and other props that often appeared in wedding photography scenes.
At this moment, the starlight flowed, illuminating the remaining props in the valley. The darkness of the night covered their dilapidated state. This scene had a bit of a romantic air to it … Or, combined with the legends of ghost stories, it would be eerie.
"If there is really a problem, it is in the opposite house." Liu Changan looked around, and his eyes fell on the opposite long building.
Qin Yanan also retracted her gaze from the triangular glass house by the lake. In her heart, she thought about how those beautiful and elegant wedding photos had all been taken in such a hellish place. All popular Western-style wedding photos were probably like this … The big red walls of the Forbidden City! In the future, when she took her own wedding photos, she had to be more imposing.
"Ahem … What did you say?" Qin Yanan glanced at Liu Changan and came back to herself.
"Let's go around." Liu Changan didn't repeat what he said. In this remote place, there was no need to be careful. He carried Qin Yanan, jumped over the valley, and landed on the opposite side near the long building.
Qin Yanan came down from his arms, and he became more and more skilled at carrying her. It was the most romantic way between a man and a woman, but Qin Yanan felt that it was no different from him carrying a bench. When this person was warm and fragrant in his arms, he didn't seem to have the same reaction as those men described in novels.
They walked around the long building, and it was quiet and dead silent. There was no light or sound, as if it was just an empty house.
"Shall we go in and have a look?" Qin Yanan asked.
Liu Changan nodded.
"Pa!"
There was no real switch, nor was there a crisp sound of sparks exploding. It was just that there was a sudden light in front of them, as if someone had turned on a switch.
The glass on the front and side of the long building suddenly became transparent, and the white light illuminated the whole building. In the deep valley, it seemed that even the walls had become transparent. It was like a house made of thin and fragile white paper. The light inside illuminated the ruined garden near the valley, and the path and the front yard, which were covered with layers of fallen leaves, looked like an oil painting, frozen at the moment when time destroyed everything.
"Is … is there really a ghost here?" Qin Yanan held Liu Changan's hand. Her heart was still beating through the thick, thick, thick fat. She was different from the ordinary atheists, Marxist fighters, and staunch Party members. After all, she had experienced many things similar to possession.
Ye Sijin … Although Liu Changan explained it as "obsession", wasn't a ghost also a kind of obsession? Ye Sijin's obsession had disappeared, so in this valley, would it be someone else's "obsession" that formed the existence of a ghost?
"Don't be afraid, all ghosts are afraid of me." Liu Changan patted the back of Qin Yanan's hand. If there were really ghosts, there would probably be the underworld, and maybe the Book of Life and Death. He was a nameless person in the Book of Life and Death, and he didn't enter the reincarnation cycle. He called himself the Grim Reaper, so he must be on equal footing with the King of Hell. He didn't mind calling them brothers.
