Chapter 258 Jade Maiden's Best Friend, Flower Cage Reappears, Love in Confusion, Yin-Yang Secret Pact
The woodshed was very narrow, built of yellow mud and gravel, with a door but no windows. Fearing that the two people he had taken in would suffocate, the farmer left the door open as he left, and the moonlight slanted in.
The white boots of Wen Caishang.
The two managed to slip away unnoticed, changing their clothes. But their boots miraculously survived. These white boots were of exceptional quality, with exquisite embroidery, and remained spotless.
The farmers in these mountains need to store firewood all year round. They collect any scraps of branches and leaves they find along the way and put them into their woodsheds.
Over time, a considerable amount of material has accumulated.
It concealed the two people's figures.
Wen Caishang's beautiful eyes flashed with murderous intent as she sat heavily on Li Xian, the soft sword hidden in her sleeve gleaming coldly. Her posture and demeanor suggested she was afraid Li Xian would escape.
Li Xian inwardly groaned, fleeing and hiding from the pursuers along the way. He desperately tried to conceal his "double pupils," knowing this was difficult to explain. But Zhao Zhiyuan's ordeal was extremely fierce, leaving no room for concealment. Wen Caishang was quick-witted; deep in the treacherous mountains, constantly harassed by strange insects, she would surely have a question upon emerging.
Wen Caishang said softly, "Li Lang, please speak properly..."
Li Xian said, "Madam...this double pupil..." Wen Caishang gently stroked the sword wound on Li Xian's chest with her fingers, feeling both pity and resentment. She had never been in love before, but she was deeply fond of Li Xian, and her heart was stirred by his love. She was savoring the taste of love, but this boy was full of lies and was completely out of her control. She said, "Don't lie to me, I hate it when people lie to me."
Li Xian said, "Madam... the matter of double pupils was something I awakened again after achieving perfect form. I kept it a secret because... because..." He was extremely good at sophistry, but Wen Caishang was not easily fooled. At this moment, she was speechless.
Wen Caishang said, "Is it all... because you're afraid of me?" Li Xian nodded. Wen Caishang said softly, "Then a lot of what you did before, was it all lies to me?"
Li Xian thought to himself, "Now that Madam has escaped danger, she's suspicious of me. If I tell the truth, it will only make her more suspicious. She likes to hear sweet words, so I'll say more." He said, "No, how could I want to lie to Madam? It's just that I'm afraid Madam will be estranged because of the double pupils, so I... that's why I kept it a secret."
Wen Caishang softened her body and nestled against his chest, saying, "Then... is what you said true or false?"
Li Xian said, "It's absolutely true. Isn't the danger along the way enough to prove my sincerity? If I were lying to you, why would I risk my life to protect you?"
Or perhaps…
"Your wife only treats me with scheming. Can't you see my true feelings?
Wen Caishang said in a panic, "No... Li Lang... don't think like that. I... I'm sincere to you too. I see your sincerity. I... I will treat you well. Let's both be well." She was vicious and selfish. When had she ever uttered a single soft word in the face of life and death? But at this moment, these words came out of her mouth.
Li Xian and Wen Caishang were both taken aback. Li Xian said, "Madam, let's go to sleep." Wen Caishang nodded, somewhat unwilling, but could only change the subject.
A night of silence.
The next day.
Before the rooster crowed, Li Xian and Wen Caishang left hand in hand. With plenty of money, they went to the city to watch the excitement.
Seeing the bustling crowds, thriving businesses, and endless stream of carriages and horses, and smelling the aroma of cooking fires, I, who have long lived in the mountains, felt a deep sense of familiarity upon seeing this scene again.
Li Xian was overjoyed and went to Yiyige to buy new clothes for the two of them, spending several taels of silver.
Li Xian was clean-cut and elegant, dressed simply and plainly. Yet, her carefree and unrestrained spirit was hard to conceal. She straightened her long hair, tied it up simply, and fastened it with a bamboo hairpin.
Wen Caishang spotted a jade crown, picked it up gently, turned it around to examine it, and said, "Little fairy, you are eighteen years old, it's time to wear a crown. Come here, I'll help you put on the crown."
Etiquette varied across dynasties. In the Nanyang period, men wore crowns at the age of fifteen. In the Dayu period, they wore crowns at the age of eighteen. The Dawu period followed the Dayu custom, with men wearing crowns at eighteen, although some also wore them at the age of twenty.
By the year, Li Xian had reached the age to wear a crown. He could marry and start a family. Li Xian removed his bamboo hairpin, letting his long hair fall loose. Wen Caishang twirled her fair hands, gathered her long hair up, and stood on tiptoe to put on her hair crown.
After tidying up like this, Wen Caishang was deeply moved. Li Xian's long hair was neatly arranged, his face was completely exposed, his eyebrows were extremely proud, and he was both heroic and reserved.
A handsome young man.
"What a fine man, what a fine man..." Wen Caishang was delighted and gently stroked his face. The two were so affectionate that they didn't care about anyone else around them.
This clothing storehouse was of good quality, and those who changed clothes there were all quite wealthy. Ladies of noble families, wives of officials, and beautiful women from upscale establishments frequently frequented the place. They all stared at him, captivated by his tall stature and handsome face, utterly mesmerized.
Wen Caishang frowned slightly and said calmly, "Gentlemen, is my young master handsome?"
The women snapped out of their daze and, seeing that Wen Caishang's appearance was also extraordinary, quickly averted their gazes. Wen Caishang frowned slightly; the two had been locked in a duel of swordplay along the way, their passion building up intensely. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him.
Wen Caishang laughed, "Ordinary women, why bother with such formalities? Little fairy, let me help you choose an outfit. I guarantee it will make you look exceptionally handsome. Come with me..."
Li Xian smoothed his hair ornament and said, "Madam... this is rather ostentatious." Wen Caishang said, "Young master, are you unwilling to accompany me?" Li Xian said, "I have no choice but to risk my life to accompany Madam."
Wen Caishang selected several outfits. All were extremely expensive, and Li Xian, checking his purse, quietly reminded her. Wen Caishang was secretly annoyed, completely losing her refined taste.
We had no choice but to simplify things.
Wen Caishang was stunningly beautiful; neither her simple dress nor her elegant robe could conceal her beauty.
But the more expensive the clothes, the more beautiful she looked, and the more exquisite her attire became. Li Xian paid for the clothes, thinking to himself, "This beauty is truly hard to please. With my meager wealth, I can't even afford a decent set of clothes."
A sense of novelty washed over her. Wen Caishang walked gracefully and calmly. The clothes were of slightly inferior quality, but when she wore them, they exuded an air of nobility and elegance.
The shopkeeper of the clothing store wanted to keep Wen Caishang and Li Xian there, and to have their portraits painted and posted outside the store to attract passersby.
Such business was quite common. To avoid trouble, and considering that Su Qiuwu and the others were trapped at Tiger Cry Ridge, Li Xian needed to keep a low profile. So he simply refused.
After changing clothes, it was time to enjoy a meal. Li Xian was an excellent cook, able to create unique dishes from wild ingredients.
But it can never quite match the fine cuisine of a restaurant, which truly reflects the local flavors. "Zui Chun Ju" (醉春居) boasts famous dishes and delicacies, while outside, women play the pipa.
The music was melodious and pleasant, and the guests were all refined gentlemen. Li Xian and Wen Caishang were elegant and well-dressed, so the innkeeper dared not neglect them, arranging for them to sit in a refined manner and serving them delicacies one after another.
Wen Caishang said softly, "Li Lang, I should thank you properly for escaping danger this time!" She took the initiative to pour tea and offer wine.
The two clinked glasses, completely forgetting their conversation from the previous night. The restaurant staff brought out dishes one after another, which they savored, enjoying a uniquely refined and delightful atmosphere.
After eating and drinking his fill, Li Xian, to be on the safe side, went to the bustling city center to check the wanted posters. The posters for "Heart-Eating Gentleman Li Renshan" and "Blood-Drinking Poisonous Woman Wen Shexie" were no longer there.
turn out to be…
The shrewd constable Leng Shixing knew full well the treacherous nature of Tiger Cry Ridge. He predicted that the two men who had escaped into the mountains would not return. He then reported to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, saying that the criminals had been executed and the warrant for their arrest had been withdrawn.
In addition... Li Xian and Wen Caishang traveled over a hundred miles, leaving the Tiger Cry Ridge mountain range. They had already left "Huashui Prefecture" and arrived at "Chongling Prefecture".
The distance is too great; the Crimson List of wanted persons has not reached this place. The vast sea of people forms a natural barrier. Even if the Sword-Slaying Alliance possesses immense power, it will be difficult to track them down.
Li Xian smiled with relief, stretched, and said, "With this move, we've finally escaped completely." Wen Caishang said, "Yes."
Li Xian laughed and said, "Madam, you always say you want to thank me properly, how are you going to thank me?" Wen Caishang said, "You brat, are you trying to please me? I will thank you myself, just you wait and see."
The remaining journey, though long, is no longer very dangerous.
Feeling carefree, Li Xian took Wen Caishang sightseeing, enjoying themselves immensely. After traveling for about three to five days, they arrived at the county seat of Nanwang County in Chongling Prefecture.
Wen Caishang recounted the history of the city. Three thousand years ago, this city was struck by a devastating plague. The Southern King County summoned physicians to prepare medicines and successfully controlled the plague, preventing the city from being destroyed.
Therefore, the city was named "Nanwang City".
Then, when talking about the history of the Southern King, and mentioning his philandering nature and numerous wives and concubines, he suddenly said coldly, "Although the Southern King has many achievements, his lack of fidelity is a great fault. Little fairy, you must not follow his example."
The city of Nanwang is preparing for a lantern festival.
It was a lively scene, with literati and scholars coming from all over to visit, admire the lanterns, and observe the folk customs.
Li Xian recalled two lifetimes, and remembered a similar scene in Qingning County. It was called "Gathering". At that time, the streets were crowded with people, and it was very lively. When he was young, he went to the market with his father and loved to buy candied fruit skewers... each skewer had five sour and fragrant fruits.
He ate two, and his younger brother ate three. When the two brothers were "dividing the spoils," they saw that the wealthy young men in the county could each eat a whole skewer and even eat them in different ways. When they got tired of the sweetness, they gave some to the servants.
The servants ate better than the two brothers.
Recalling the past, Li Xian shook his head and chuckled softly, remembering how things had changed. He bought two skewers for five copper coins. One for his wife and one for him. They ate while reminiscing about the past.
His voice was soft and gentle, and the past events were unremarkable, but when he spoke of them, he captivated the listener and soothed their emotions.
Wandering away from the bustling street scene was a unique experience. He enjoyed the lantern displays, acrobatics, iron-sparkling performances, and operas… savoring each one. Qingning County wasn't nearly as lively; although Li Xian had visited many large cities, he had only passed through them briefly.
Having escaped a great calamity, one's state of mind is different. What one enjoys, experiences, sees, and feels is naturally different. Wen Caishang was no exception; in her entire life, she had never traveled with a man.
Lantern festivals, festive celebrations... she had no interest in any of the traditional folk festivals. Naturally, she never went sightseeing. Instead, she found it quite novel and enjoyable to stroll through the bustling city with Li Xian.
History books, both ancient and modern, are filled with momentous events. These trivial matters have no right to be recorded in history books. Yet, the charm and intrigue they reveal are uniquely captivating.
They enjoyed their night outing to the fullest, and the two ventured into the mountains and forests. Their swords clashed, expressing their tender feelings. Wen Caishang's sword was soft, yet its power surged like a raging heatwave, its movements as entangled as if deep in thought, each strike aimed to tightly bind Li Xian.
Li Xian's swordplay was vigorous and elegant, always possessing a surging momentum as if he wanted to see a thousand miles and survey the world. When the two practiced swordsmanship, they became increasingly aware of the differences between them.
Wen Caishang expressed her feelings, but still felt an inexplicable sense of unease. It was like scratching an itch through a boot.
But even with the swords combined and their emotions intertwined, though he couldn't always please her, he was still thoroughly enjoying himself. He had practiced the first level a thousand times, and now he moved on to the second.
Sharing the sweet rain, sharing life and death, piercing chests together, the setting sun and the fading moon… a variety of sword techniques were unleashed. Wen Caishang had already perfected the second level and had been practicing the third level for some time. When she reached the second level of the dance, her swordsmanship was even more profound, so she focused on "yin" as the primary element and "yang" as the secondary element.
Her swordplay was relentless and entangled, drawing Li Xian into a frenzy. As she refined the second level, her joy was palpable, and she expressed herself with unbridled delight. After a series of swordplay, she declared, "Li Lang, the first level is no longer sufficient. From now on… let's focus solely on the second level!"
Li Xian laughed and said, "Good!"
Holding Wen Caishang in his arms, she was drenched in sweat, her emotions stirred. Li Xian was naturally amorous, and with just a little initiative, the dignified Lady Zhejian, the mistress of the manor, would succumb.
Li Xian's future was uncertain, his decision to stay or leave uncertain, and he dared not take that final step. Wen Caishang thought to herself, "This kid is full of cunning schemes, he's definitely not truly honest. But why is he acting like a block of wood right now? Could it be... could it be that I punished him too harshly? He once harbored lustful thoughts towards me, and I stabbed him with my sword. Is he... is he afraid because of that?"
Suddenly, she felt immense regret. Everything she had done was to control Li Xian, to hold his emotions and fears in her hands. She had treated Li Xian as her own possession, to be used at will. But at this moment, she could no longer treat Li Xian as an "object," how could she bear to use him? Yet, her desire for control had not diminished, but rather intensified.
The two returned home hand in hand. They bathed together, changed their clothes, and then slept in the same bed. Li Xian remained steadfast in his resolve, refusing to act rashly.
Wen Caishang hesitated, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.
The next day.
Li Xian was in no hurry to travel. The Lantern Festival in Nanwang City was bustling with activity, so he took his wife to visit and stayed for several days.
On this day, I passed by the Prince of Nan's Mansion.
The gates of the mansion were wide open, and notices were pasted on the stone walls on both sides, which read: "There is a banquet inside. All heroes of the martial world are welcome to take a seat."
Li Xian stopped to observe. Wen Caishang said, "This is a talent recruitment banquet; there's nothing wrong with freeloading some food."
Li Xianqi asked, "Does Madam also like to join in the fun?" Wen Caishang rolled her eyes, lightly poked Li Xian's chest with her finger, and said, "Why would I want to join in the fun? I just know you like to join in the fun, but I'm afraid of causing trouble."
"There are indeed troubles in this talent recruitment banquet, but if you just freeload and leave, you won't get involved. If you don't even have this much magnanimity to establish yourself in the martial arts world, you wouldn't dare to hold a banquet."
Wen Caishang had a clear understanding of the ways of the martial arts world. Li Xian, being open-minded and easygoing, walked freely into the mansion.
The steward, dressed in a brocade robe, had a strong voice and was quite capable. He said, "Heroes, the banquet is over here. Please take your seats." He pointed to a side path.
The fork in the path led on both sides, where the vegetation was meticulously manicured and vines hung down. But after walking for about a hundred paces, it became increasingly quiet, with more and more miscellaneous branches, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.
At the end of the path, a huge rock blocked the way. Dense bushes lined both sides.
Wen Caishang laughed and said, "If you want to freeload a meal, you need to have some real skills. This is a test set up by the Prince of Nan's mansion."
The boulder was extremely heavy. Even a martial artist could barely move it, and the surrounding bushes obscured the view. Wen Caishang said, "Little Fairy, we don't need to think too much. Once we move the boulder, the path will be revealed."
The intention was quite clear: "Those skilled in strength move stones," and "Those skilled in wisdom enter the thicket." Li Xian placed his hand on the boulder, touched the ground with his toes, and deftly lifted the boulder, carrying it several feet away.
Wen Caishang clapped her hands and said, "Good! Good strength!" Martial artists are not known for brute force, so... even a high-level martial artist may not have much strength.
Wen Caishang cleaved a boat in two with a single sword stroke, effortlessly and gracefully. However, carrying massive boulders was by no means her forte. Yet, she possessed the skill to pulverize them.
The realm of martial arts is the soil; what kind of flowers and fruits it yields depends on what the martial artist has learned and practiced.
Wen Caishang suddenly said with a hint of resentment, "The one with double pupils is truly formidable." Li Xian said, "Madam, I'm sorry, I won't hide it from you anymore."
Wen Caishang said, "If you lie to me, what can I do to you? Humph." Li Xian said, "If I... if I lie to you, may I have my hands and feet cut off and never have a moment's peace."
Wen Caishang was suddenly taken aback. Her thoughts were inexplicable, and she said softly, "Little Fairy, let's go and take our seats."
The path was now visible. The two walked a short distance and came to a wide open lawn. There were more than ten square tables set up, and about three adults were sitting quietly around them.
Every eight-immortal table was occupied. All were wandering heroes, talented and outstanding individuals, with remarkable appearances and bearing. They drank tea and wine, engaging in light conversation.
As soon as Li Xian and Wen Caishang appeared, all eyes turned to them. Li Xian bowed and nodded, gesturing to the various factions in a friendly manner. Wen Caishang, however, kept her hands tucked into her sleeves and ignored them.
Li Xianzhe sat alone at a table. He saw the stream flowing over the meadow, and the birdsong was clear and bright, creating an indescribably elegant atmosphere.
A wandering swordsman at the same table chuckled, "Young friend, you are quite handsome. Where are you from? And who is this gentleman beside you...?"
Li Xian laughed and said, "Poor Celestial, this is my wife." The wandering swordsman said, "Well...well, madam..." but was quite disappointed.
Wen Caishang felt a slight joy in her heart and moved gracefully to brew tea for Li Xian. The wandering swordsman subtly pushed his cup away, also wanting to be served tea by the beauty.
Li Xian remained calm and gently tapped the teapot over, letting it land steadily in front of him. Li Xian said, "Brother, if you are thirsty, please help yourself. My wife has a bad temper and cannot serve others."
The wandering swordsman gave an awkward smile and drank alone. Wen Caishang thought to herself, "This young man's intention to protect me hasn't changed." Her heart softened.
The melodious sound of a pipa drifted through the air, accompanied by fragrant mist. Seven graceful maids, dressed in colorful flowing skirts that barely concealed their skin, brought out dishes.
The banquet began with the first dish, a specialty of Chongling Prefecture: "Phoenix Eggs in Sour Vinegar." Its tangy and fragrant flavor was both appetizing and delightful.
The selected ingredients are not "phoenix eggs." They are actually Tujia eggs, and the cooking process is complex and complicated.
Li Xian took a bite to taste it. Wen Caishang said, "Although this dish is an appetizer, there are still some rules to follow when tasting it."
She poured tea, just enough to slightly fill the bottom of the cup. Then she added the Chongling Prefecture's specialty "oil sauce" and said, "Drink this first, then go and try the phoenix eggs."
Li Xian sighed inwardly, "If I could truly be served and cared for by my wife like this, I would be incredibly fortunate. If my wife were not so ruthless, this gentle embrace would surely break even the most heroic soul."
Taste it as instructed, and you'll find it endlessly delicious.
Wen Caishang picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped his mouth, saying in a seductive voice, "Li Lang, how is it?" Li Xian replied, "Exquisitely delicious."
Several more dishes were then served. Wen Caishang served Li Xian food and drink with elegance, grace, gentleness, and attentiveness. Those around her looked on with envy.
Fine food and wine were served in abundance. The master of the mansion, "Ma Xuan," strode in.
He bowed and apologized, his words remaining composed: "I am delighted that you have graced my humble abode with your presence. I was suddenly interrupted by an urgent matter and was unable to offer a toast and drink with you all immediately. I am truly sorry. I will punish myself with three cups."
He drank three cups in a row, quite unrestrained.
The other travelers from the martial arts world chimed in, saying, "Master Ma has been the host, providing excellent hospitality. The wine and women are all of the highest quality. How could we possibly blame him?"
"Indeed, Master Ma is too kind. Come... let us all toast Master Ma."
...
Li Xian followed the crowd and offered a toast from a distance.
Wen Caishang whispered in his ear, "The reason for organizing the talent recruitment banquet must be that there are some trivial matters in this manor that are difficult to handle. Someone needs to organize them. For such matters... Ma Xuan will most likely organize two talent recruitment banquets. One will be held in the inner courtyard, where all the attendees are people who have received invitations and have names and surnames. The other will be held in the outer courtyard, where all the attendees are wandering martial arts practitioners. If there are any powerful figures among the wandering martial arts practitioners, they will be invited to sit in the courtyard for further discussion."
"He puts on a nice front, but he doesn't really care much about the people at this banquet. But even if such people stab you in the back, they won't stop smiling."
Li Xian laughed and said, "Fortunately, I had my wife with me, otherwise I would have been deceived by these old foxes."
Wen Caishang laughed and said, "You've seen the dangers outside. There's not much fun to be had there."
Li Xian smiled without saying a word. Wen Caishang said, "Most of the guests here are unaware of the key points. They are grateful and indebted to us. Later, Master Ma will definitely recount his grievances. These people, filled with righteous indignation, will boast that they will help resolve the matter."
"And so it goes... they've all been used as pawns. The world is vast, and there are far too many fools like this. We're not in a hurry; let's just listen to the spectacle. Then..."
Li Xian laughed and said, "Then we'll just pat our butts and leave." He then made a move, but he wasn't patting himself.
Wen Caishang scolded, "You naughty boy!" She was both annoyed and delighted.
Ma Xuan looked distressed and hesitated before saying, "Everyone, please drink well. Alas... It's a rare occasion for heroes to gather here today. If it weren't for... if it weren't for that matter... alas! I really wish I could drink and enjoy myself with all of you heroes."
The wandering swordsmen below asked, "Master Ma, is there some difficulty you are facing? Please tell us, we are here to feast you, and we may be able to help you in any way we can."
Ma Xuan said, "This...this...how can this be? I invited you all to this banquet to celebrate your heroic spirit. I am already overjoyed to see you all enjoying yourselves at my residence. Would it be better to spoil the mood by talking about my own trivial matters?"
"Brother Ma, you're too old-fashioned!" a江湖客 (jianghu kè kè, a term referring to people who have traveled extensively and lived a life of leisure) said. "We've drunk wine and feasted together, so we're already friends. If you truly consider us friends, then please speak frankly! Otherwise... I won't drink this wine!"
Li Xian understood: "Ma Xuan recruits talented people to make use of them. These江湖客 (jianghu people) who volunteer to help also want to build connections and increase their reputation."
The Southern Prince's Mansion has a considerable reputation. Therefore, it is very easy for them to respond to a call. Li Xian thought to himself, "Profit can lure people, and fame can drive them. With fame and profit combined, if we raise our arms and shout, the response will be endless! There will be plenty of people rushing to help us deal with trouble."
Ma Xuan then revealed everything. It turned out that... a few days ago, a distant relative's niece had brought her best friend to visit him at home.
The two had been playing in Nanwang County for several days, but suddenly disappeared yesterday. It is assumed that they were captured by the Flower Cage Gate.
Ma Xuan said, "If any of you have the ability, please help me. My niece is spoiled and cannot bear the slightest grievance. And... and the woman accompanying her."
"His background is certainly not bad; he comes from Daoxuan Mountain. He is quite familiar with the Jade Maiden of Daoxuan Mountain. If we lend a helping hand, we might be able to get to know the Jade Maiden Zhao Ranran."
Li Xian muttered, "Zhao Ranran?"
"By a twist of fate, I have a marriage contract. This Zhao Ranran is a descendant of the Zhao family, and now I hear of her name."
The martial arts practitioners were filled with righteous indignation and determined to help. Although Li Xian despised the Flower Cage Sect for its numerous evil deeds and its desire to stir up trouble, he realized that they were outnumbered and had limited abilities, making it difficult for them to make a difference. So he left hand in hand with Wen Caishang.
Ma Xuan of the Southern Prince's Mansion was slightly displeased, but said little and saw them off amiably. Of the many martial arts practitioners in the hall, about 70% stayed and 30% left.
After two days of sightseeing, we boarded a boat and left Nanwang County. Heading south, we enjoyed the journey to the fullest.
The closer we get to the impoverished land of abundance.
This day.
In a desolate wilderness, Li Xian and Wen Caishang once again joined forces with their swords. The second layer of their sword techniques flowed naturally. Wen Caishang's gentle touch was relentless, determined to corrupt the hero's bones and soften the man's heart.
Li Xian shuddered, and with the second level of the Sunset Blood Sword, he smoothly stepped into the "Peak of Perfection" realm. Passive had turned into active, and Yin-dominant and Yang-assisted had become Yang-dominant and Yin-assisted.
The sword's momentum shifted abruptly. The sun shone brightly overhead, its light expansive and unrestrained, illuminating the mountains and rivers. Wen Caishang's red lips pursed slightly; the sword was not her own, her sword, her heart, her body… all were swayed by Li Xian.
