The older generation in Qinghuai County often say that if you see a temple you have never seen before at night, don't enter it, don't worship it, and don't ask who is worshiping inside.
Because what is offered in the temple may not be gods.
It may also be a debt that a person cannot let go, a breath that cannot be swallowed, or a life that refuses to accept fate.
Chen Zhao is guarding a funeral supplies store at night. His parents are missing and he owes 370,000 yuan in debt. He originally just wanted to survive this month, until at 11:44, a temple appeared in front of the store.
There is no idol in the temple.
There was only an IOU left by his father.
From that night on, a ghost temple grows every day in Qinghuai County.
Some people pray for their daughter to come back to life, some people pray for the old case to be changed, some people pray for the deceased to collect their debts, and some people pray that they have never been in this world.
They light incense, make wishes, and cultivate the things in their hearts that they can't let go.
What Chen Zhaoye had to do was to demolish the temple before dawn.
Break the temple rules, go to the temple to pray, cut off the offerings, and seize the praying Lord.
But the more he took it apart, the more he felt something was wrong.
Later someone told him: "Don't be afraid of the temple, be afraid of the people lighting incense."

The word count is too small. I read a few pictures and a bunch of them, and it felt like I was reading an essay to make up for the word count.
