The Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.83 percent to 2,046.59 points, led by declines in publishing and media companies.
The PBOC drained 52 billion yuan (US$8.5 billion) via repurchase agreements from the money market after a 46 billion yuan withdrawal on Tuesday.
The seven-day repurchase rate, a gauge of market liquidity, jumped 94 basis points to 4.83 percent on Thursday.
