Liaozhai Ghost Story

Chapter 260 City

Huanshan City, one of the eight scenic spots in Zichuan County, is rare in several years.

On this day, Yu Nian, the son-in-law, drank with his friends upstairs. Suddenly, a lonely tower rose on the top of the mountain, which was high in the sky. After a while, dozens of palaces appeared, with green tiles and eaves, which were majestic. After a while, many walls emerged from the top of the mountain, stretching for six or seven miles. There are buildings and houses in the city wall, as well as street markets, tens of thousands. All the scenery is clearly seen and vivid in my mind.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the top of the mountain, and the dust was permeated. When the wind stopped, the palace of the city wall of the mountain was nowhere to be found. There was only a tall building, about ten thousand feet high, and there were five large windows on each floor of the attic, which were open one by one. The lower floor is bright and dazzling. The higher it goes up, the diter the starlight is. When it is above the eighth floor, the starlight is hazy. If it goes up, it is dark and can't be seen clearly.

There are pedestrians coming and going on each floor of the attic, either leaning against the window or standing, in different shapes. After a while, the tall building slowly became shorter, from ten thousand feet to a thousand feet, to a hundred feet, ten feet, and finally only the size of a fist, the size of a mung bean, finally inserted into the ground and disappeared.

Every time the city appears, there are many ghosts in the market, doing business, tricks, and watching the lively, so the city is also known as a "ghost city" in private.
