Evening Talk About Mountains and Seas

When you open this book, you will embark on not only a thrilling journey that will send chills down your spine, but also a folklore exploration into the dark side of Chinese civilization. Please remember: Those who read night talk should not walk alone at night; those who listen to legends should not easily believe what they say. [Revere heaven and earth and do not violate taboos] Since ancient times, countless anecdotes have spread across the land of China: water ghosts singing in the middle of the night in the south of the Yangtze River, phantoms of camel caravans in the northwest desert, ghost legends in the old forests of the northeast, and the unsolved mystery of the secret poison in western Hunan... These stories are passed down orally in the countryside and have become the deepest collective memory of each region.
