Shanghai is not noisy. When it is quiet, it is also suitable for telling stories, just like the old storytellers. Two flowers bloom, one on each side. The first one talks about the past, specializing in the strange gods and demons; the second one talks about the present, focusing on suspense and the supernatural. Whether it is gods, demons, or supernatural beings, the most difficult part is that each of the thirty-six stories is different, and each chapter is new. You have just emerged from the suspenseful mystery, and then fell into the quagmire of supernatural beings; you have just lamented that monsters understand the true feelings, but you are lost in the realm of gods and monsters. The story of the modern volume is fashionable, colorful, fantastic and touching, while the ancient volume is full of whales swallowing dragons, overturning winds and waves, and secret sachets being unraveled.
