Li Qing spent the entire afternoon checking his dormitory inside and out.
He even knocked on every inch of the wall to inspect it.
The fact was, there was nothing out of the ordinary here, not to mention a mirror.
Not even a speck of dust!
It made him feel both a creepy chill and a strong surge of curiosity.
But until he left work in the evening, he hadn't figured anything out.
Li Qing decided to give up.
Some things were just beyond his understanding.
Better to believe they exist than not, he thought; it was time to make a swift exit.
But just as he was leaving the school gate at the end of work, he encountered another rather eerie event.
In the crowd, he saw the old Daoist priest from the Nine Truth Palace!
It was the peak of the school day's end, and students were streaming out of the gates in droves.
Yet Li Qing spotted the old Daoist priest among them in a single glance.
He was dressed in a gray Daoist robe, with a long bundle slung over his back.
