Those Things in the Dark

About This Novel
Once I wanted to chat with the girl named Yinzi, my heart actually warmed up. I chose a meeting place and called her. I told her the address carefully, just so that she could understand the route to take and the name of the small restaurant. Yinzi comes from a very remote village, and the look on her face when she first described her hometown to me is still fresh in my memory. A simple duck egg face also has a simple smile. She said that my family was surrounded by mountains, groups of mountains. Have you ever seen the mountains? They are like the straw hats worn by villagers, with circles inside them. I was amused by her metaphor at the time. How could I have mastered this rhetorical method as a college student? But she still made it clear that those mountains are collectively called Xiaoxinganling.
