Since the sun had just set not long ago, the sky wasn't particularly dark. Moreover, with no clouds in the night sky and under the light of the moon...
visibility was still quite far.
In a rather secluded household in Bai He County, the doors of the dwelling had already been firmly shut.
On the doors were two faded images of door gods.
It was unclear how many years those images had been there.
Next to the door gods was a freshly pasted talisman, with a yellow background and red characters, faintly emanating a subtle power.
Inside the house were only two people, a man and a woman.
One was the wife.
The other was the husband.
Both spouses weren't old, in their twenties, but they had worked hard in the fields for years, enduring sun and rain without falter.
So although in their twenties, they appeared as if they were in their thirties or forties.
Their faces were lined with wrinkles, their skin coarse.
Displaying a darkened hue.
