The video went dark, then lit up again.
This time, the footage showed two single beds in a hotel room. Shi Fei and Yuan Ling sat on opposite sides, facing the camera.
Yuan Ling held a towel over his eyes.
The two of them were silent for a long while.
Shi Fei gave a dry laugh. "If you're trying to scare me, don't be so stupid as to hit yourself in the eye. Your acting just now was first-rate, though. You could go be an extra at a film studio."
Yuan Ling didn't respond.
"Hey, does it really hurt? Should we go to the hospital?" Shi Fei stopped laughing.
Yuan Ling said in a muffled voice, "I really felt it just now."
Shi Fei straightened up at once, sitting bolt upright.
"I really felt it. There was something over my eyes, covering them. I touched it, too. There was something there... It was ice-cold. I don't know what it was, but there was definitely something." Yuan Ling said.
"You... really saw a ghost?" Shi Fei asked fearfully.
"I don't know... I..." Yuan Ling lifted his head slightly, then fell silent.
The two of them were silent for a while again.
"I found out there's a City God Temple nearby, and a Guanyin Temple... If that doesn't work, we can go to the capital and pay our respects. We'll burn some paper money for her... Hmm... It should be easy to get to Mount Pushi from here, too." Shi Fei began rambling.
Yuan Ling said nothing. After a long while, he nodded.
The video went dark again.
When the picture returned, Shi Fei was facing the camera, looking haggard.
His voice was quiet and weak as he said, "We've already been to the City God Temple and Guanyin Temple in Minqing.
