Mo Da listened to these words as if through a fog of clouds, finally he grabbed the meaning from the last sentence. Leave with him? They were all of the same road! He looked the brocade robed gentleman up and down and alarmingly said, "Brother, so you are also..." Before he could say "Here to Raid Tombs", he was cut off by Su Li Li who said heavily, "Even though the gentleman is also brokeback, I cannot bear to ditch this uncouth person. Once you meet someone who knows your heart, you don't want to part until the hairs all turn white, this is the true meaning of seeing past the vulgar and uncouth things on earth."***** As she said this, she silently removed his fingers. The brocade robed gentleman narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a while, suddenly he nodded his head in approval, "Good, good." Seeing he is happy, Su Li Li raised her hands and gestured, "Farewell." She grabbed Mo Da and rapidly left, not daring to look back for one moment. In the wilderness, the wind blew harshly across, the brocade robed gentleman met the wind face-on, and watched the two leave. The person behind him said in a low voice, "Master, why did you let them go?" The brocade robed gentleman was silent for half a moment, he stretched out his hand as if he wanted to catch the wind that was blowing by, a light peppermint scent blew by. He lightly laughed, "This young girl is very interesting, go find out who she is." The figure in black robes behind him disappeared and quickly went to chased after her. As the horse slowly walked on the Hundred Prosperity Road, Mo Da asked, "What is brokeback?" Su Li Li thought for a while and said, "It means to raid a tomb." "Why does it sound strange?" "Educated people speak this way." They stopped in front of the Coffin Shop's back door, Su Li Li jumped off the horse and said, "You can take care of the objects, I will go home first." She pushed opened the door, and walked across the backyard in darkness, some strands of light reached her eyes and there seemed to be a person's shadow. Suddenly alert, Su Li Li was frightened and jumped like a rabbit, then saw a walking cane at the side. In the darkness, Mu Tou spoke in a low voice, "Why are you like that?" Su Li Li caught her breath and walked over. She was afraid Uncle Cheng****** would hear, so she softly replied, "I was frightened." "Is anything the matter?" "No." She sat next to him on the stone step. The two of them was silent for half a moment, then Mu Tou suddenly said, "Left." "What?" Su Li Li asked not understanding. Mu Tou's voice was calm and not surprised, "The person who was following you, he was outside just now." Su Li Li was shocked, suddenly thinking of the face of the killer, she inched towards Mu Tou's side. Mu Tou gave out a cold sound, Su Li Li pulled his sleeve and cajoled, "Mu Tou, you are so good, not wasting my efforts in saving your life - seeing that I had not came back, you waited for me out here even when it's so late." Mu Tou opened his mouth, as if he wanted to deny, but he stopped, most likely because he had no good reason. Suppressing for a while, he coldly said, "As if you couldn't do anything else, to go and raid a tomb!" Su Li Li wanted Mu Tou to talk to her, so she could forget that dreadful person's face, she tried to create a reason to explain, "That... my motive for raiding tombs is different from others. My main purpose is to see the different materials used, to see which is the most lasting... and, to find out the ancient patterns..." Mu Tou couldn't help it, he gave out a sound but laughed. Su Li Li decided to strike while the iron is hot and said pitifully, "Tonight I almost could not come back, then you won't be able to see me again." Mu Tou's voice was indeed much warmer and said, "That person has strong internal energy, but he used a strange method. The real energy is not pure, he must have learned a complicated impure heart method." "You can tell?" She felt that his words were a bit too extraordinary. "His qing gong (light arts) is not bad, since his internal energy is deep and strong, when he changes energy I could hear." It was rare for Mu Tou to have the patience to explain to her, Su Li Li could not help being impressed speechless. Since he could have that level of understanding, he could not be an ordinary person. Because of some lost chance, he ended up in this circ.u.mstances. A lion was only the king of the beast when he was in the mountain jungle, the sea dragon was only the controller of ten thousands of creatures deep in the sea. Once they leave where they belong, they were only animals in a cage, deep sea fishes on a shallow beach. But where did Su Li Li belong? Will she be able to hide her ident.i.ty forever? Even she did not know. The night wind was cold, Su Li Li turned around. Mu Tou's eyes were like the coloured gaze in the dark, storing a deep and quiet determination. She thought back of what she saw and heard today, she just felt that too many old things were acc.u.mulating, the suppression was heavy, but she lived light as ever. Her heart was sad, but she smiled and said, "Mu Tou." "Yes?" Su Li Li was quiet for a moment then said, "Are your parents no longer around?" "Yes." "Mine too." Her fingers lightly brushed the boards clutching his injured leg, "Does it still hurt?" "No." She was silent for a long while, Mu Tou also made no sound, just like the wolves deep in the night, not waiting for prey, but comfortable in that darkness meant for himself. After a long while, Su Li Li lightly said, "Sit next to me for awhile." "Yes." * It's just an expression that some time has pa.s.sed and not actually half a day's time. ** Haha, isn't it funny that Su Li Li compares Qi Feng Xiang's voice to grinding sawpaper on a coffin board? Hahaha. *** The literal translation is broken sleeve, which implies h.o.m.os.e.xuality. I've translated it to brokeback instead. **** The Night Blooming Cereus is a flower that only blooms at night and only for a short time. ***** This line basically encapsulates Su Li Li's heart. ****** The other person living in Su Li Li's Coffin Shop is Uncle Cheng, a loyal servant from her previous days as the daughter of the Imperial Adviser.
