The Nameless Monk Descends the Mountain: A Hundred Ghosts Question the Human Heart

On the night the ferry crossing was sealed by rain, a boat with no one poling it came back upstream to shore. The lamp was still lit, there was no one on the boat, yet wet footprints crossed the old house of the dead and stopped at the door of a living person. A nameless monk only wanted to cross the river, but was drawn into an old case in which everyone was lying: the dead in the water were looking for substitutes, and the living on the shore had already chosen someone for them. From the water town ferry crossing to mountain villages, the county town's charity hall, a strange academy, an opera troupe's dock, and a border military town, he encountered ghosts all along the way, and also traced the marks his master had left many years ago. But he gradually discovered that the hardest thing to deliver from suffering was never just ghosts, but people trapped by debt, reputation, desire, and silence. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Nameless Monk Descends the Mountain: A Hundred Ghosts Question the Human Heart — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
