The wetlands covered a vast expanse of land. At first glance, only reeds covered the area but there were some bright dandelions too! At night, they glowed like some deep-sea creatures.
"The dandelions are so beautiful." Shu Xiaohua found everything interesting. She leaned over to blow on a dandelion.
"This kind of dandelion especially grows on soil nourished by corpses. It absorbs nutrients from the decaying flesh and also takes away their souls. When the sea breeze blows at night, the souls on the dandelions turn into ghosts. They will enter eaves and window sills and suck on other people's souls. When you feel so tired in the morning without a reason as though you had participated in some strenuous physical activity, then it means a ghost had probably sucked some essence of your soul at night," explained Mo Fan.
Shu Xiaohua froze. She was still leaning over but had stopped blowing on the dandelion.
