Changzhou City, Xiaomian Inn.

The night of June 17th, three o'clock.

Cheng Yunhe, the chief officer of the Crane Escort Company, had been on the road for two days with sixteen boxes of goods.

Although the journey was safe, he was very nervous and exhausted. The moment he closed his eyes, he had fallen asleep, but he woke up suddenly for some reason.

The dark room was silent.

Outside the window... There was a certain sound.

There was a breeze of ethereal voices as if someone was singing. They seemed to be singing very seriously, but then, the tone was very strange... like a song being sung by a broken tongue.

Cheng Yunhe's eyes fluttered open and he looked at the window facing his bed.

In the pitch blackness, there were emerald green dot-like shadows faintly floating on the window, some looked far away and some looked near, but they were only at the window facing him.

The singing outside the window was far away, the broken tongue singing a sad song that not just any stranger could understand...

He had practiced martial arts for nearly forty years, although his eyes and ears were not the best in the Jianghu. They were at least not too weak, but at that moment, the voice he heard was no human voice.

The wind rustled through the open window as he stared at it, eyes focusing on the blue and green shadows, and he suddenly thought of a specific word for the first time in his life:

Ghost?
