Thirty four years ago she left us... and yet, she is not forgotten. She is still remembered...<br />
<br />
If Barbara was still alive, last week's birthday would be something I tweeted for her. Alas, we know it's not what's happening...<br />
<br />
Still, I am lucky to have a friend who is studying in Cambridge at the moment. This dear friend of mine was willing to go to the Cambridge City Cemetery to give Barbara some flowers. Thank you very much, my dear friend!<br />
<br />
And apparently, I'm not the only one with this idea. As my friend arrived in Lot 29, she found so many flowers already, and it was actually yesterday (GMT+0 in the afternoon of 13 May) that she went to the cemetery...<br />
<br />
The latest photos of Barbara's grave with myriads of flowers is below after the break.

<br />
Meanwhile, as I'm more and more certain that Barbara ended her life because of depression, please for anyone reading this message, if you need help, seek for it. Please trust that there is a peaceful, beautiful way out of your current state of continued sadness. I am not an expert on mental health, but I am certain that - had mental health issue been actively promoted in the 80s - it's very likely Barbara is still around. <br />
<br />
So, let's assert again the belief that we all deserve happiness and a fulfilled life. Let's hug our dear selves and thank ourselves for still being alive, for still welcoming the new day with a smile from the heart. Let us believe that help is always just around the corner, and let us understand that whatever we do, as long as it is from Love, from within, it will nurture us...<br />
<br />
Peace be upon us.Ichahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11201156394951497511noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810623855707613503.post-85940538065359251492019-05-07T02:52:00.004+02:002019-05-07T02:52:42.440+02:00Happy 60th birthday, Barbara!<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Today, if Barbara was still alive, she would be 60 years old... OMG... <div>

<br />
As some of you may know from <a href="http://www.barbarayung.nl/barbara-s-personal-life/1007-2018-barbara-s-new-gravestone" target="_blank">Rob Radboud's website</a>, in January this year, Barbara’s old white tombstone was replaced with the new black one to accommodate her mother’s. Barbara’s old white tombstone is now buried underneath the black stone, along with her ashes and her mother’s ashes. However, I didn’t visit her grave when I was in Europe in 2018 because I didn’t have time, hence I couldn't tell the impression upon seeing Barbara's new grave.<br />
<br />
A few weeks ago, a fan of Barbara contacted me about visiting Barbara’s grave in Cambridge. Her name is Joy, and what is very special to me about her is that she is 18 years old, yet she is a fan of Barbara Yung. Joy said that she became a fan after watching the LOCH 1982 series with her mother. Joy was in the UK recently (or perhaps still is), thus she wanted to visit Barbara’s grave in Cambridge. I gave her some tips based on my old post in <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2016/08/visiting-barbaras-grave.html" target="_blank">2016</a> and <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2017/06/visiting-barbaras-grave-with-rob-radboud.html" target="_blank">2017</a>. Later, she sent me an account of her visit and also some photographs; here they are below, edited slightly to secure her identity.<br />
<br />
Joy, thank you so much for the gift.<br />

<i><b>August 2018</b></i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Hi Icha, </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I arrived in Cambridge at around 1pm (it was a long bus ride). I was stressing about where to buy flowers until I read that you bought yours at the market, so I walked over after lunch and purchased a bouquet of orange lilies from a florist in the market. I read on your blog post that Rob mentioned these were her favourite flowers, so it seemed appropriate. I took bus 12 and finally arrived at the cemetery. As I was walking to lot 29, I thought to myself, “this should be easy to find, her grave is in the shape of a black heart!” </i><br />

<i>And then as I was approaching, I saw about 5 graves in that general area that were in the shapes of black hearts, but luckily I found it!! The lilies were cut from the stem so I set them in the flower pot filled with water that was next to the grave. Rob did a great job cleaning - the grave was beautiful and there were many flower bouquets. Barbara and her mother have definitely had visitors over the past few days because there were unpotted flowers that were still fresh. </i><br />

<i><br /></i><i>I never realized the immense difference between looking at photos of the grave versus actually kneeling in front of it. I can’t completely describe how it felt to be there but it was incredibly overwhelming, and there was an ambiguous feeling of both meeting her and not meeting her at the same time. Leaving was a terrible feeling - it felt like I was saying goodbye forever even though I know that I’ll visit again in the future. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I truly appreciate your reply, as well as the posts you’ve written - they were an enormous help today! It’s heart-warming to know that her memory still lives on through the lives she’s touched, and I hope it will continue to live on for a very long time.</i><br />

I just found out that a reader left a comment to the TVB CLH <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2018/06/the-new-adventures-of-chor-lau-heung.html" target="_blank">blogpost</a> (TVB has uploaded all CLH episodes in Cantonese in YouTube). Leanne Chau is a painter, and she actually has painted a digital painting of Chor Lau Heung and Song Siu Ching!<br />
<br />
Above is the painting, and this is her site. Is it not a truly gorgeous painting?<br />
<br />
Leanne, thanks a lot! Keep them coming!<br />

OMG! I just found out that TVB uploaded the New Adventures of Chor Lau Heung 1984 in YouTube! They just uploaded the whole 40 series five days ago on 19 June! That's so great! Here's the first episode, and you can follow the whole 40 series in YouTube. It's in Cantonese, which is a delight to me, although it lacks English subtitles.<br />
<br />
Also, Michael Miu's 60th birthday was exactly last week on 18 June 2018. Happy 60th birthday, Michael! I have been remiss in posting an article about it because of my schedule, but I do remember it that day. I haven't searched for Michael's latest photo, but he definitely didn't look like a ~60 years old man last year!<br />
<br />
Hmmm... what a coincidence that TVB released all CLH 1984 episodes a day after Michael's 60th birthday. I take that as a divine providence, though perhaps TVB did actually time the upload to honour Michael's role (and Barbara's of course) in making this series a classic.<br />
<br />
Have fun watching the official CLH 1984 on YouTube!<br />

It was a very painful event for all of her fans, and the sadness still reverberates until now. Yet, I hope that we are all coming to our acceptance of what happened and eventually move on with her smile and laughters, her fullness as a person, in our hearts. Barbara was not a perfect person, but nor am I. None of us are. Hence, I still thank her for her role in making my childhood beautiful.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I thus also want to wish her a very belated happy 59th birthday on 7 May last week. I remembered her birthday last week, but I didn’t have time (or didn't make time) to make a post about it. Thus, here’s an old MV that I made last year, which I hope can remind us of the beautiful, though imperfect, Barbara Yung. Oh, and if you'd like to entertain yourself with a fanfic, <a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.nl/2017/05/many-happy-return.html#more" target="_blank">this one is a funny one</a> that I wrote last year for Barbara.</div>

Also, my apologies for the lack of updates. I had been focusing on my personal life and other fandom these days, but Michael-Barbara will still be in my heart. They will not leave me, and I’m glad that they’re here to stay, dormant as they are…</div>
<div>

<div>
Until the next post, stay healthy and happy! </div>

I saw Yeung Hong and Wong Yung in a fight, but YH wasn’t fighting WY. Instead, he (in his gorgeous orange white Jurchen garb) protected WY from something. I can’t think of anything permanent from his outburst of heroism, but I find it interesting that the scene appeared in my dream. Hence, this fanfiction. Hope you like it, and Happy New Year!</i><br />

Wong Yung lost count on how many times she and Yeung Hong had been head-butting since they knew each other. Surely at least 10 times? Fifteen times? The thought passed by uninvited, of course, as she flung her sword forward and then lifted it again to parry Yeung Hong’s slashing spear. To think that the spear once belonged to Uncle Yeung, Ching gor-gor’s adopted uncle...<br />
<br />
“Why don’t you just give in?!” Yeung Hong screamed as he whirled and slashed low to target Wong Yung’s legs. Missed again. “I’m getting tired of fighting you!”<br />
<br />
“Same here!” Wong Yung retorted. “It’s so boring to always defeat you!”<br />
<br />
Yeung Hong’s dragon eyes flashed. He disliked being patronised, much less by Wong Yung. “Well, today you’ll know defeat!” He whirred and executed a series of close-range attacks before suddenly delivered a roundhouse kick. Wong Yung ducked, but a naughty protruding root from one of the many trees in the bamboo forest they fought in caught her. She tripped and fell on her back, just in time to avoid Yeung Hong’s roundhouse kick.<br />
<br />
“Hah! I got you!” Yeung Hong lifted his sword high to execute a fatal, if not lethal, strike.<br />
<br />
<br />
“You say!” Wong Yung reached for her fallen sword to parry again.<br />
<br />
Yet a sudden roar froze both enemies to their own positions.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
“Tien!” It was a while before Wong Yung whispered.<br />
<br />
“You heard that too?” Yeung Hong tilted his head elsewhere without lowering his guard.<br />
<br />
“A...” Wong Yung hesitated. “...a tiger?”<br />
<br />
He nodded. “And we’re without protection.” True, neither Yeung Hong’s cronies or Kwok Ching were there; the two bitter enemies were separated from the others while Kwok Ching and Hung Tsat Kung busily fended off the Young Prince’s cronies.<br />
<br />
“Have you fought a tiger before?” Wong Yung asked. She briskly got up; Yeung Hong didn’t even try to stop her. He shook his head as a reply.<br />
<br />
“I’ve seen two tigers during our adventures to the Mongolian region, but my guards were always the ones who fought them.”<br />
<br />
“And got killed protecting you while you did nothing, I bet,” Wong Yung sneered. Yeung Hong glared at her, but said nothing. It was true that the guards gave their lives to protect the Young Prince, but contrary to what Wong Yung suspected, he actually wanted to join the fight but was always prevented by his “dearly beloved father”.<br />
<br />
Another roar was heard, closer this time. Wong Yung lifted her sword and took a few steps away from where she thought the tiger was heard from. Yeung Hong followed suit, his eyes darted like a manic here and there, trying to find any signs of the tiger. The bamboo forest was quite dense, the day was quite windy, thus it was rather difficult to ascertain whether the tiger was just passing by or – worse – going towards their location.<br />
<br />
Apparently though, it was the last bit. They heard another roar, awfully too close this time, then some rustles of the leaves and branches cracking… and suddenly, in front of their eyes, just a few meters away, stood a very large tiger.<br />
<br />
Wong Yung gasped. She never saw a tiger, hence she had no idea whether this tiger was big compared to its counterparts; but it was certainly big to her eyes. However –<br />
<br />
“I’ve never seen a tiger this big…” Yeung Hong’s whisper blanched blood from his already pale face.<br />
<br />
“Tell me you’re kidding.” Unexpectedly, she stepped closer to Yeung Hong without realising that the Prince was doing the same as well.<br />
<br />
“I’m not kidding. The two tigers I’ve seen before were big, but not this big. This one must be very old.” Slowly, Yeung Hong positioned his spear in front of his body. He didn’t shove it towards the growling animal, but he had to be ready. He also stepped closer to Wong Yung without realising that he actually had positioned himself in front of his enemy.<br />
<br />
“He looks so angry…” Wong Yung’s voice now faltered slightly, but not before she swallowed and raised her sword.<br />
<br />
“Don't,” Unexpectedly, Yeung Hong blocked her move with his left hand. He then pushed her backwards slightly in a gesture very eerily similar to a protective gesture. Wong Yung suddenly realised that her enemy had indeed turned into a protector, very likely without him meaning to.<br />
<br />
“Don’t. Raise. Your sword.” Yeung Hong said very slowly, his eyes still locked on the tiger. “Just put it in front of you, but don’t raise it.”<br />
<br />
“He… he might attack.”<br />
<br />
“Then we have to be very quick if it happens. But for now, don’t make any sudden move. Don’t move even a muscle.”<br />
<br />
Realising that this brat might have a point, Wong Yung relaxed her hands. Then she tensed again when the tiger growled again, followed by a very scary roar.<br />
<br />
“Oh Tien, he’s not giving in!”<br />
<br />
Yeung Hong, very pale-faced now, didn’t say anything. He tried to remember anything about the two fights against the tigers, but he could only recall how valiant his guards were in protecting his life.<br />
<br />
Perhaps now was the time to repay them.<br />
<br />
“Yes, he’s not giving in.” He shoved Wong Yung backwards again with the back of his left hand. “When I say ‘duck’, you duck, okay?”<br />
<br />
“Oka – what??”<br />
<br />
“DUCK!!!” Yeung Hong yelled as his left hand pushed Wong Yung to the ground and his right hand shoved his spear forward. At the same time, the tiger roared and jumped towards the two humans huddling together. The tiger’s claws tore something; the Prince screamed as the tiger roared in pain.<br />
<br />
The next thing Wong Yung saw as she got up was the tiger fell on the ground at the same time Yeung Hong rolled away from the tiger, blood on his chest. He desperately tried to stop the blood flowing from his chest by immobilising his chest area, but it didn’t completely stop the haemorrhage.<br />
<br />
“Heavens! You’re hurt!”<br />
<br />
“Stay back! The tiger isn’t dead yet!”<br />
<br />
True, Yeung Hong’s spear just hit the tiger’s fore legs, but it didn’t incapacitate the animal. The wild beast roared again with more anger and swayed to get up.<br />
<br />
“You’re hurt! I’ll lure him away!”<br />
<br />
“Stay back!” Bleeding, Yeung Hong tried to get up. “Your sword isn’t long enough to fight this beast. My spear – ” he gasped, “ – is –” he didn’t finish his words, for he fell on his knees, blood gushing from his open wound.<br />
<br />
“Damn it, Yeung Hong, you stay back!” Impatient, Wong Yung jumped between the prince and the tiger. “It’s my turn now.”<br />
<br />
Realising that he couldn’t even protect himself now, the Prince became motionless. “Then…” Yeung Hong weakly nudged his spear to his enemy, “ – take this. It’s…” he gasped in pain, “ – longer…”<br />
<br />
As Yeung Hong fell on the ground, wheezing in pain from the gushing wound, Wong Yung accepted the spear with a nod. She then positioned herself right in front of the angry tiger and executed several Dog-beating Stick stances Hung Tsat Kung taught her. She couldn't tell whether it was the stances, her light moves or the spear, but the tiger got confused and becoming less effective in his attacks. Then, after several minutes gauging her new enemy’s weakness, she slashed right where she should, i.e. where Yeung Hong left the mark on the tiger’s forelimbs. The tiger roared in pain, tumbled down several times, and remained very silent. Yet, just as Wong Yung tentatively moved forward, the tiger rose again and slowly retreated.<br />
<br />
The girl couldn't believe her luck. Their luck.<br />
<br />
“He’s leaving. Tien! He’s leaving!”<br />
<br />
Excited, she turned to face Yeung Hong, who despite his pale face and bleeding torso and hands, was looking at her, a faint smile on his lips.<br />
<br />
Then it hit them both. For the last few minutes, the two of them actually fought side by side as friends, not as enemies. This realisation dislodged their balance, such that Wong Yung suddenly studied the forest ground fastidiously while Yeung Hong found an interesting bird flying over his head.<br />
<br />
Then, they were saved by the bells. Footsteps were heard, and the ugly faces of Yeung Hong’s cronies emerged from the bushes, chased by Kwok Ching and Hung Tsat Kung.<br />
<br />
“Yung-yi, here you are! We’ve been looking for you everywhere!”<br />
<br />
“Your Highness, we’ve been trying –” One of them gasped. “Young Prince! You’re injured!”<br />
<br />
“It was a…” Yeung Hong inhaled, “… a tiger. Wong Yung…she saved me.”<br />
<br />
“You saved me too,” Surprised that Yeung Hong actually acknowledged her, Wong Yung solemnly acknowledged the Prince back. When the flabbergasted Kwok Ching asked her to repeat it, she said a matter-of-factly that the Prince had shoved her to the ground so that she wasn’t slashed in two by a tiger.<br />
<br />
“Young Prince…” Yeung Hong’s cronies weren’t sure of their footing. “What should we do with these intruders?”<br />
<br />
Wheezing, Yeung Hong shook his head. “Just let them go…” he whispered. “There’s always another round with them.”<br />
<br />
“That’s true,” Wong Yung returned the spear by throwing it to one of Yeung Hong’s cronies who caught it swiftly. “When you’re healed, we’ll see you again in another fight.”<br />
<br />
No one but the girl saw the faint smile on the Prince’s lips.<br />
<br />
“You can bet on it.”<br />
<br />
She smirked, but not in an unfriendly way, before she left the Jurchen party, Kwok Ching and Teacher Hung tagging behind her, asking her questions after questions. As she answered those queries faithfully, she wondered how different things would have been, had Yeung Hong always been the hero he was just now.<br />

<br />
Apologies for the lack of updates... I'm still in love with Michael Miu and Barbara Yung, it's just that I am more engaged with another genre and actor at the moment (<a href="http://okada-masaki.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Okada Masaki</a> and J-ent, if you must ask...), in addition to being quite busy with work.<br />
<br />
Anyway. Merry Christmas 2017, and may you have a beautiful end to 2017 and a beautiful 2018. Be happy, healthy and in peace.<br />
<br />
In the jianghu news, I have just found out that Michael Miu won the 2017 TVB Malaysia "King" award, along with Jessica Hsuan (who won the "Queen"). Apologies that this news is a month late, for they won it on 25 Nov 2017. But hey, this is the first award for Michael for 40 years IIRC, so congratulations!<br />
<br />
Michael won the King award for his role in "Line Walker: the Prelude" while Jessica won for her role in "My Unfair Lady". Michael and Jessica also won the "<a href="https://sg.style.yahoo.com/michael-miu-jessica-hsuan-win-072600735.html" target="_blank">My Favourite TVB Drama Characters</a>" award for their roles in the respective dramas.<br />
<br />
I was always a bit sad that, <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/michael-miu-won-apos-t-062900904.html?src=rss" target="_blank">prior to this award</a>, Michael never won an award despite his amazing skills... but now yeah! He won one! Michael himself said that he made movies not because he wanted to win an award, but it's good to have them nonetheless.<br />
<br />
They should give you more awards, if you ask me, Michael! Congratulations once again! Some recent Michael Miu photos after the break.<br />

<br />
Hi all... My apologies for not updating this blog for more than a month. About a month ago, Rob Radboud informed me that our friends in Hong Kong couldn't find the place for Barbara's gravestone. Thus, possibly the gravestone will be moved to Mainland China. I somehow felt sad about it, because Barbara's hometown was in HK, and I'd love to see the gravestone installed in HK. However, of course I know that Lam Chak et al had tried their best, much more than what I could do from behind my computer in Australia...<br />
<br />
Then I think two weeks ago Rob informed me again that now Andrew Chan will bury Barbara's gravestone in the same square of grave as her own ashes. It seems that there is a belief that it would be much better for Barbara's spirit if the gravestone does not leave her grave. It might be a Chinese culture, which I somehow understand and respect.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Thus, for now the gravestone will remain in the Cambridge City Cemetery. I will not be able to see it the next time I'm going there... but I know that it will be there, buried underneath Barbara's new gravestone.<br />
<br />
I used to think that Cambridge was too far away for fans to visit. However, after witnessing how beautiful and serene that town is, I am actually glad that Barbara's grave is in Cambridge. The lush beautiful greeneries of Cambridge provides that peaceful feeling... such that Rob said that coming to Barbara's grave is akin to a second home for him. There's peaceful solitude there that I actually have come to love.<br />
<br />
I hope to visit the UK again next year... and if I do, I will make sure I make another post about it...Ichahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11201156394951497511noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810623855707613503.post-84820360798623705852017-09-24T14:54:00.001+02:002017-09-24T14:59:30.915+02:00The Vast Desert 大沙漠 Part 2<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
<br />
CLH et al went inside the house and found only one stone statue of Kuan Yin. They went out again when Little Phoa said that Stone Camel was so scared. CLH deduced that the blind Stone Camel realised who killed thos burglars. When Chor tai-gor returned to the crime scene, he realised that the Kuan Yin stone statue was gone. In its place was a pan full of braised beef that was so inviting to the hungry men. Always wary, CLH, Wu and Ki Ping-yan did not eat the beef dish. A dog barked inside and ate the dish without any sign of food poisoning. Still, our friends knew that whoever killed the burglars had not only left the food, he/she had annoyed these wanderers by releasing a dog who immediately ate the food. Disgusted, Wu threw away the beef dish outside. After a while, they heard a scream outside and realised that Little Phoa died eating the poisonous braised beef that Wu threw out of the window.<br />
<br />
CLH now realised his enemy was the Stone Kuan Yin, a very skilful swordswoman who was also very good at the art of disguise. She killed the burglars and disguised herself as a stone statue. In the previous story, the Stone Kuan Yin also ordered Chiu Ling-siok to ruin her own face so that the Stone Kuan Yin remained the prettiest woman on earth (or at least in the Central Plains).<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Finding no water or food, CLH, Wu, Ki and Stone Camel walked 2-3 days in the desert without water. On the 4th day, they arrived at an oasis where CLH had the time to be a peeping Tom, peeping a desert princess taking a shower. The princess had a funny name to me: Princess Pipop (sounds like lollypop…). So, Princess Lollypop asked a bearded man in flamboyant clothing (apparently her Daddy) to test CLH, thus Daddy told his men to ambush the tired taihap, who still defeated his opponents despite him having no water and drink for days. Later, Lollypop played CLH some music from her zither, thus CLH recognised who her dad was: the famous Kui-ji-ong, the Soh-ci-po (I have no idea what it means). I suspect this guy was a very famous musician, for CLH was very respectful of him. Kui-ji-ong invited CLH, Wu Tit-fa, Ki and Stone Camel for drinks and meals. After regaining his energy, CLH started observing his surroundings as well. Surrounding Kui-ji-ong were two brothers of the Go Yu Hong-kiam. Suicu Lin-che, a bandit from the two large rivers region, was also there. A man dressed in green was the famous killer Sat-jiu-bu-ceng Toh Hoan; but CLH wasn’t impressed by him. Another person was an anaemic Ong Tiong, sickly-looking and seemed to have no desire to live on. CLH found this last person interesting, though. CLH et al also learned that Kui-ji-ong and his daughter came from a land called “Gunial”. The Gunial King threw a friendly challenge on Wu Tit-fa, who won against a big fighter of Gunial. Wu also had a butt-head session with the killer Toh Hoan (I think the latter was jealous because Princess Lollypop kept praising Wu); Wu won.<br />
<br />
Here the narrative explained that Wu Tit-fa was actually a very skilful fighter. The 1984 CLH series did not give him enough room to display his excellence; it seemed CLH had to rescue him every now and then. Yet, when Wu was fighting against Toh Hoan, despite the latter wearing some poisonous rings (which made CLH worried), Wu was able to evade Toh Hoan’s attacks and broke TH’s wrists instead.<br />
<br />
Wu’s fighting excellence made the anaemic Ong Tiong realised that Wu Tit-fa was the Flower Butterfly. Thus, the handsome tai-hap who accompanied him must be Chor Lau-heung the King of Thieves. Pale-faced, Ong Tiong admitted he was blind not to be able to recognise a legend in front of him. While CLH was busy trying to obscure his identity from a fan admiration, a soldier came into the camp and reported an emergency to the King. The King of Gulian looked worried, but when Ki asked for private quarters to take a rest, the King didn’t miss a beat to send his guests to a private room.<br />
<br />
In the room, Ki Ping-yan voiced his suspicion, that although Gunial was a small country, a king was still a king. What did the King of Gunial do here outside his own country, looking like running away from something? Why did he enlist wuxia fighters on his side? Ki suggested they rested for an hour before taking their leave. However, from the conversation snippets, Chor Lau-heung deduced that the bad news delivered to the King was related to the Stone Kuan Yin, hence they should stay in the camp to join forces. CLH deduced that the “Star in Heaven”, the large jewel the burglars found was supposed to be delivered to the Gunial King. CLH also deduced that the Lollypop Princess had a high-level of martial art (based on her comments on Wu’s skills), but she was skilful enough to hide it.<br />
<br />
Soon after, one of the Go Yu brothers visited the three friends. Unexpectedly, he said that he visited them because the Princess had asked one of the three wanderers of his hands in marriage.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Chapter 17</b><br />
<br />
The person the Princess wanted to marry was apparently Wu Tit-fa. CLH merrily congratulated his friend, although he was rather disappointed as well, for he liked her too. Well, I think it’s more because CLH was so used to girls running after him, whereas here, the Princess actually liked Wu instead!<br />
<br />
Interestingly, after the Go taihap left, Wu decided to reject the Princess’ proposal. He just didn’t want to, period. CLH got over his disappointment quite quickly, thus he suggested that the Drunkard should accept the proposal. After considering that being a Fuma (Prince Consort) wasn’t a bad idea at all, at least he didn’t have to wander around aimlessly in the desert, Wu agreed that he would accept the proposal later.<br />
<br />
That night, CLH saw that Ong Tiong was actually paying attention to Stone Camel. CLH had always been suspicious of Ong Tiong, for the latter never disclosed his own identity. CLH was about to interrogate Ong Tiong when Princess Pipop came and talked to our tai-gor. She asked why he was avoiding her; CLH tried to drop hints that she should just talk to Wu instead. Since CLH was still attracted to the Princess (but he wouldn’t steal his friend’s fiancé), CLH was glad when Go Ceng-thian (the matchmaker) came in to deliver his successful mission to the Princess.<br />
<br />
Later, Wu Tit-fa (shoved forward by CLH and Ki) accepted the gift from his future father in law. The gift was a very large red emerald jewel, definitely on par with the jewel that the burglars found in the desert. CLH smiled to share the happiness with his friend, yet he wondered why the King was so nonchalant about distributing such a wealth. Obviously, the loss of the jewel a few days prior was not about the jewel itself, but something else.<br />
<br />
Wu Tit-fa also met the Queen, a very charming middle-aged lady. It seemed the Queen actually liked CLH (palm/face), and CLH also found her interesting, such that Ki had to remind CLH that the lady was the Queen.<br />
<br />
After the Queen had retired to her room, the King confessed that he had been kicked out from his own country and now he had to always be vigilant of killers sent by his opponents. One of his opponents was “The Mighty Invincible Sabre”. The King also said that he had asked for the Peng Family delivery bureau to safeguard his treasure “the Star in Heaven”, yet he just found out that the Pengs were already dead. Moreover, the Star was already in the hand of a person who just delivered a ransom note, asking the King for 500 gold taels, 500 pearls and 50 pairs of jade bracelets in exchange of the Star. The King would like the Star in Heaven back, hence he asked the swordsmen to deliver the treasure to the exchange point. CLH gave his word to safeguard the treasure.<br />
<br />
Later, a commotion was heard outside; the camels and the horses sounded sad. Ki checked and found out that Stone Camel was gone, as well as Ong Tiong. Soon after, the camp was on fire. CLH realised he had to protect the King, but Ki Ping-yan dragged him out of the main camp. Annoyed, CLH asked why Ki did that; Ki said:<br />
<br />
“You and Wu Tit-fa were only looking at the Queen and the Princess, but I have been studying the other swordsmen. They are suspicious. Go return back to the camp and protect the King, I’ll get Wu Tit-fa back.” By the way, Wu was already addressed as the Little Prince here.<br />
<br />
CLH returned and perched on top of the camp, observing what happened inside the camp. The Go swordsmen were about to kill the King, but the Princess interfered with her iron zither. Once the Go brothers died, Toh Hoan and another fighter entered the camp and was getting an upper hand when CLH decided to interfere. CLH recognised Toh Hoan’s partner in crime: Sun Khong the Black Monkey.<br />
<br />
“Sun the Black Monkey, do you remember me?” Chor tai-gor flashed his subtle smile.<br />
<br />
Sun Khong was flabbergasted to see CLH. Inexplicably, he turned and left, making Toh Hoan baffled.<br />
<br />
“So you’re just going to leave me here?!” Toh Hoan screamed in disbelief.<br />
<br />
“Why?” Sun Khong replied. “I have the right to come and go as I please.”<br />
<br />
“Who the hell is this kid? Why are you so scared of him?!”<br />
<br />
Sun Khong flashed a warning glare. “You dare to call him a kid?! On what basis do you have the nerve to ask about him?!”<br />
<br />
And just like that, Sun Khong killed Toh Hoan. Turning to CLH, the Black Monkey said, “I know you won’t kill him, but he’s a mess to let go. That’s why I killed him for you.”<br />
<br />
And then he left, but not before adding, “Oh, by the way, since I do owe you, a person is coming here, 10 times my level. Be careful.”<br />
<br />
“I always am,” chuckled Chor tai-gor. “But who is he?”<br />
<br />
“Even a mere mention of the name gives me a headache. I’d love to stay to see you fight this person, but I’d rather not. Ciao!”<br />
<br />
Baffled, the Princess demanded CLH told her his true identity. CLH ignored the request. Wu and Ki came, stating all was under control. Wu also explained to the benefit of Lollypop that the Black Monkey had clashed with CLH three times, but CLH always let him go. Thus, Sun Khong was always respectful of CLH. After Wu and Ki left, the Princess demanded that the wedding should be done immediately, preferably tomorrow. CLH agreed on behalf of Wu Tit-fa.<br />
<br />
Me, I start to find the Princess supremely annoying. At least Song Siu-ching was always honest with her feelings. Here, I think Lollypop liked CLH, but she somehow wanted to marry Wu for something. Fishy.<br />
<br />
As CLH returned to his room he shared with Wu and Ki, he found a note from the Stone Kuan Yin, basically saying that they should just mind their own business. Of course the three friends ignored the note. However, the note’s presence also indicated a mole in the camp.<br />
<br />
The three friends slept, but they woke up in a few hours when a person entered their camp. This person was the Gentle Thief Liu-che. Who was he, again??<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Liu-che’s story was apparently related to the first arc (<a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Fluttering%20Fragrance%20on%20the%20Bloody%20Sea" target="_blank">Fluttering Fragrance on the Bloody Sea</a>). Liu-che's brother was murdered by Lamkiong Ling. I don’t know how Liu-che ended up in the desert. But he apparently saw Toh Hoan and the Black Monkey in a camp in the vicinity. Toh Hoan was talking to someone from Kui Je (that’s the Gunial King’s country of origin). Liu-che was able to listen to the conversation. He found out that the enemy’s camp also received a letter, exactly the same as the one the Gunial King received. That is, if the enemy’s camp would like to receive the Star in Heaven, then they had to provide a ransom of 500 gold taels, 500 pearls and 50 pairs of jade bracelets.<br />
<br />
Then, suddenly, a person tapped Liu-che’s shoulder. The fact that this person was able to tap Liu-che’s shoulder without LC knowing he/she was there implied that this person was definitely more skilful than Liu-che. This person warned LC not to interfere in this business. Liu-che was indebted to this mysterious person, he wanted to adhere to the warning. However, Chor Lau-heung was implicated in this business. Since Chor tai-gor had solved the Lam Kiongling case (apparently, the entire Jianghu knew it), Liu-che could not but warn CLH of this complicated business. Hence The Gentle Thief’s visit to CLH’s camp. Afterwards, Gentle Thief left. CLH et al realised that whoever warned Gentle Thief must be a very skilful person, but they had no time to investigate it further, because it was Wu Tit-fa’s wedding day.<br />
<br />
During the wedding, Wu was very happy. He drank a lot, but the Drunkard was of course still sombre enough when he was escorted to his camp. During the dinner, the Gunial King gave CLH an honorary cooked egg. The egg was installed inside a cooked chicken, which was inside a cooked lamb, which was inside a cooked camel. CLH was about to eat the egg when he realised that the tip of the King’s knife was black. Someone had poisoned the egg. CLH pretended to eat the egg, but later, inside his camp, he examined the egg with Ki Ping-yan. The egg was indeed poisoned, but only the yellow bit in the middle. <br />
<br />
That night, CLH and Ki Ping-yan decided to take turn in guarding the camp. Someone had dared to poison CLH, it means that the taihaps were getting close to something. After Ki’s turn, Ki left CLH to do his roster. A while later, someone approached CLH.<br />
<br />
CLH was frozen to see that it was the Lollypop Princess, wearing a thick coat with layers of swan fur, who approached him. The same princess who was supposed to be enjoying her wedding night with Wu Tit-fa. He was even more surprised when the Princess took off her coat and revealed that she (palm/face) wore nothing underneath. Like, nothing.<br />
<br />
What followed was CLH losing control and enjoying a night under the stars with the Princess. Specifically, under the Princess’ swan coat with her.<br />
<br />
So apparently, the Princess was immoral enough to trick Wu into thinking that she wanted to marry him. Apparently, Wu married the Princess’ older sister instead, because Pipop wanted Chor Lau-heung instead. Palm face.<br />
<br />
Finally, the first rays of sunrise adorned the eastern sky. After the love making session, Pipop said that she might not be able to see CLH again. CLH said that he wasn’t sure if he’d marry Pipop anyway (palm/face). He earned a slap on the face. Steams coming out of her ears, Pipop left the scene wearing CLH’s clothes. CLH struggled to enter his own camp and found another set of clothes. He saw Ki Ping-yan, and he thought Ki was pretending to sleep. While CLH struggled to explain his behaviour to the sleeping Ki, Wu Tit-fa unexpectedly came into the camp.<br />
<br />
CLH’s heart shrunk to see Wu. He expected Wu to be very angry with him. However, Wu was all stars and sun… he was very happy instead! Wu said that, after he opened his wife’s veil, he realised that she was not Pipop. But since the older princess was very beautiful and kind, Wu thought it was a better deal anyway. They had a great night, then Wu sneaked out of the camp just before sunrise to tell CLH how lucky he was. Baffled, CLH followed Wu who wanted to introduce his wife to his brother.<br />
<br />
Yet, when they entered Wu’s camp, they found a dead woman on the bed. The woman’s body was bloated, and her face looked ugly. Wu was very surprised, for the woman didn’t look like his wife who made love to him that night. He screamed, waking up the entire camp.<br />
<br />
Upon entering the camp, the King was shocked to find his eldest daughter dead. Apparently, the dead woman was INDEED the eldest princess, Pipop’s sister. So… who made love with Wu Tit-fa then…?<br />
<br />
The King demanded that Wu surrendered. Wu refused, for he didn’t kill the Princess, and the King and family tricked him anyway into marrying her. Wu wanted to escape, but CLH persuaded him to stay. CLH requested three days to investigate this murder case. CLH also warned everyone to leave Wu Tit-fa alone, for the King of Thieves was the grantor, and Wu would not leave the camp anyway until the mystery was solved. <br />
<br />

<i><b>Author’s note:</b></i><br />
<br />
<i>Geez… that was surprising, the business with Pipop Princess pretending to marry Wu. I’m glad Siu Ching isn’t like that! Song Siu-ching, despite being a non-canon character, had an integrity that I admired. Pipop, on the other hand, had no scruples in tricking a man for her own benefit. Which I don’t get anyway. Pipop could just say that she wanted CLH, and Wu would have no say in it. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I'm also a bit disappointed that Chor tai-gor just accepted Lollypop's offer. What about brotherhood?! Can't he wait until everything is cleared up with Wu?... Apparently he can't...</i><br />

<br />
As I’m watching nervously for Hurrican Irma to batter Florida USA (Hannah, stay safe!!!), I’m reading the second Chor Lau-heung novel from Ku Lung titled “The Vast Desert” 大沙漠. It’s over 200 pages of PDF as well, so I will try to finish reading it in 4-5 weeks. I read this novel in the Indonesian version; I suspect the translator is the same with the one who translated “<a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Fluttering%20Fragrance%20on%20the%20Bloody%20Sea" target="_blank">Fluttering Fragrance on the Bloody Sea” 血海飄香</a>. The writing style belongs to a slightly older period, perhaps the 80s, which in itself is nice to read, albeit a bit confusing at times. The chapter in PDF started with “Chapter 13”, which is weird. It does not follow the chapters in the last novel, which ended in Chapter 17. “The Vast Desert” has ended in “Chapter 28”, so it has 15 chapters. I’ll just assume Chapter 13 is Chapter 1 then.<br />
<br />
<b>Part 1 (Chapters 1-3)</b><br />
<br />
After his adventure in the last novel, Chor Lau-heung returned to the Fragrant Boat in the hope that he’d get a delicious lunch from the girls. However, So Yung-yung, Li Hung-chao and Sung Tim-yi were nowhere to be seen. Upon finding a black pearl on top of a pile of yellow sand, Chor tai-gor’s blood boiled. He deduced that Black Pearl, the son of the Desert King we saw in the <a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Fluttering%20Fragrance%20on%20the%20Bloody%20Sea" target="_blank">“Fluttering Fragrance on the Bloody Sea” 血海飄香</a>. Black Pearl left a note: “You took my horse, I take your women.” Capitally disturbed, CLH rode his horse (well, Black Pearl’s) towards the Western Desert (I assume the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gobi_Desert" target="_blank">Gobi Desert</a>).<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
I’m actually rather surprised to learn that Black Pearl had kidnapped Yung-yung et al. He wasn’t a friendly person at the first place, but he was a decent guy in the novel. I take it that later CLH would find that it was not Black Pearl who kidnapped the girls, but that remains to be seen now.<br />
<br />
CLH rode and rode until he arrived in a poor desert town at the Yellow River plain (I know that because of the yellow dust typical of the Yellow River plain). He was about to take a break when he saw a cat crossing the dusty town road, on a direct collision course with an incoming horse cart. Unexpectedly, before the cat was hit and killed, a person dove on top of the cat and rescued it, allowing the horse cart to hit himself. CLH was surprised to see a guy rescuing the cat out of the blue, but he was even more surprised when he realised that the person was okay. He got a pleasant third surprised to see that the cat rescuer was none other than Wu Tit-fa the drunkard!<br />
<br />
Wu Tit-fa (Hokkien “Oh-Thi-hoa”) was also pleasantly surprised to see his old mate. They had a drink afterwards (CLH didn’t find the wine in that town to his liking), where they reminisced on the old days. CLH mentioned a particular woman, WTF (apologies for the abbreviation) immediately said that he was actually in that desert town because he was running away from that woman. Another surprise, the woman was Koh A-Lam (the Hokkien spelling is Ko Ah-nam). Here, Koh A-Lam was also a student of Hua-shan, but instead of mutually falling in love with WTF, KAL loved WTF but the drunkard didn’t harbour any interest in her. Instead, WTF was interested in the (very ordinary) wine seller who owned the shop he always frequented. Sadly, the wine lady wouldn’t even bother to acknowledge his presence since he first stepped into the shop three years ago.<br />
<br />
Anyway, after my initial surprise subsided, I received another surprise, a pleasant one this time. When WTF asked CLH whether our tai-gor arrived here because he ran away from the three girls, CLH said this about his famous relationship with the girls:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“Many people think that my relationship with them is inappropriate. The truth is, they have followed me since they were about twelve years old. They see me just as their own big brother and best friend, and I… of course you still believe me, <b>since the beginning I always see them as my own little sisters.”</b></blockquote>
(bold parts are my own marks)<br />
<br />
WTF trusted that CLH saw the girls as such. As for me, dear readers, this information relieves me immensely. It means that what Michael Miu’s CLH said to Barbara Yung’s Song Siu-ching in the 1984 CLH series was in accordance with the novel. Chor Lau-heung did see the three girls as his own sisters.<br />
<br />
Chor tai-gor informed WTF how he arrived in that town, that he was actually searching for the three girls and their kidnapper (suspected to be Black Pearl of the Western Desert). The Drunkard declared that he’d help CLH retrieve the girl; the two best friends immediately set forward. Yet, to their surprise, the wine shop owner cling onto WTF, saying that he shouldn’t leave. CLH released a string of laughter as he saw WTF ran as fast as he could from the wine shop owner.<br />
<br />
After the comedic episode, WTF took CLH to a town called Lan-ciu where they would meet a friend who could take them to the western desert. That person was called Ki Ping-yan (Mandarin: Ji Bing-yan), a rich guy in Lan-ciu. WTF called this Ki person “The Dead Rooster”. When the Dynamic Duo arrived at Lan-ciu, they found Ki Ping-yan, rich as he was, but he was unable to walk. About five years ago, Ki went to the western desert and found his riches there (not sure what; gold??). But, he was also trapped in the sand for two full days, only being rescued later by some camel entourage. His legs were not functioning ever since. Thus, although Ki wanted to go with CLH and WTF, he only sent them off with some very important logistics, mainly water, food and a horse for WTF.<br />
<br />
As the two rode towards the desert, WTF lamented on how he was so sorry that Ki Ping-yan was now helpless on his sedan chair. WTF also scolded CLH for not showing a proper care for Ki’s fate. Only then CLH said that Ki actually made it up. He could still walk just fine, but he didn’t want to go with CLH-WTF to the desert. CLH deduced it from the way the two girls who served Ki acted around Ki. Their gestures were too intimate for mere servants, and they were certainly not going to be very sensual around Ki if Ki was not able to do anything. Drunkard Wu flamed to learn that Ki actually lied to them, but CLH just smiled and said that he knew Ki was always like that.<br />
<br />
Yet, Wu was definitely not Chor Lau-heung. When the two friends were taking a rest on their first stop, Wu returned to Lan-ciu, kidnapped the two servant girls of Ki’s, and brought them bac to where CLH was. Chor tai-gor was surprised to see Ing-yan and Poan-ping (the two girls); Wu was adamant that he would still keep the two girls until Ki returned to apologise. Yet, since Ki never arrived to claim back the girls, Wu had to return Ing-yan and Poan-ping back. Laughing, CLH had no choice but to return to Lan-ciu with Wu and the girls.<br />
<br />
However, on the way to Lan-ciu, they saw an entourage of horses and camels. The entourage looked neither like burglars nor an expedition company. To their surprise, the entourage belonged to Ki Ping-yan himself, who comically showed his healthy self as he enjoyed Wu’s surprised face. Not sure if Ki actually had always wanted to go with CLH and Wu, but now he was there, with all his logistics.<br />
<br />
In his caravan, Ki Ping-yan explained his strategy: they would go to the source of Huang Ho (the Yellow River) and go to Ca Bok-hap (the Desert King)’s territory from there. They had to change horses at the “Old Dragon Bay”; CLH had to leave Black Pearl’s black horse there. CLH originally objected (he might be growing attached to that horse, or he felt he had to return the horse in exchange of the girls). However, Ki was adamant that the black horse had to be left behind, because it would attract too much attention. CLH thus reluctantly agreed.<br />
<br />
They arrived at the Old Dragon Bay on the second day in the evening. CLH reluctantly said goodbye to “his” lovely horse; the horse seemed to have been attached to him as well. Meanwhile, Wu got to know their crew. A blind, deaf and mute big guy called Stone Camel was in charge of the camels and horses (he spoke their language, it seemed). Another guy was called Little Phoa, he was an excellent multi-lingual translator. <br />
<br />
At their last stop before the vast desert, Ki sold their horses, burned his belongings (so that no one could own them), and bought some very precious water. The water quality wasn’t great, but that was all they had. Chor tai-gor, Wu Tit-fa and Ki Ping-yan changed into the desert clothing as well. Stone Camel changed into a Mongolian garb, he looked sad that he had to say goodbye to his horses. In the evening, they rode their camels into the desert. The desert that was indeed cruel. It was scorching hot even after sunset, yet at night it was violently cold.<br />
<br />
During their first scorching day in the desert, they heard a cry. CLH and Wu insisted that they had to rescue the person who cried for help, thus the entourage changed course. CLH and Wu were so surprised to find two naked men, almost died of painful desert heat, tied on two crosses. They rescued the men immediately and gave them water. The two men said that they were attacked by desert burglars. Yet, to CLH et al’s surprise, once the two men recovered, they jumped to their feet and launched secret projectiles hidden in their messy hair. CLH, Wu and Ki were experts who could easily evade the weapons. However, the projectiles were not meant for them. Instead, they were meant for the leather pouches that contained their water supply.<br />
<br />
CLH and Wu easily captured the two secret attackers, yet when Wu asked whether they were sent by Ca Bok-hap the Desert King, the men laughed it off. “Ca Bok-hap doesn’t even qualify to polish my master’s shoes!”<br />
<br />
“If not Ca Bok-hap, then who is your master?!” asked Chor tai-gor.<br />
<br />
The men didn’t reply. When Wu asked if they were not afraid of death, they said that they’d rather die for their master. Thus, they died, after swallowing a hidden poison. After checking their water supply, Ki had to throw away much of them because they were already poisoned by the projectiles. Having no choice, the entourage still resumed their journey into the desert. They didn’t have dinner that night because they had very little water left (thus no water to cook).<br />
<br />
That night, CLH examined the projectile tube he found with the two attackers. He said that there were only three people in the world who could make such secret projectile tubes. The first two were Ciang-bun-jin of the Tong Family in Siok-tiong and Cu Losian-sing from Kanglam. The third person was he himself, Chor Lau-heung. <b>So the 1984 series got it right again, CLH did use projectiles, only non-poisonous.</b> He also then crossed out Black Pearl from the possible villain list because Black Pearl was not cruel and also not that high-skilled. Ki Ping-yan seemed to know who the mastermind of the attack was, but he didn’t say anything. Yet, he did say that tomorrow they would arrive in a secret water source about 100 li from their current location, so they should be okay with water supply. Meanwhile, Chor Lau-heung started to suspect that the Stone Camel had some deadly secrets in his past life.<br />
<br />
Anyway, there was one funny time when Wu asked how Stone Camel knew when to stop and when to resume the journey, for Ki didn’t seem to give him any verbal instruction at all. Did Ki use some black magic or so? Ki grinned and asked if Chor tai-gor knew the answer. Our tai-gor slowly said, “You use a pebble. You hit Stone Camel’s left shoulder with the pebble if you’d like him to stop. You hit Stone Camel’s right shoulder with the pebble if you’d like him to resume the journey. This method –” our tai-gor smiled as he turned to address Wu Tit-fa, “ – can be done without black magic.”<br />
<br />
The gang arrived at a spot with karst stones and just a sad tree growing there. Wu deduced that there should be water there; CLH said that the water must be very deep underground. Yet after an hour of digging, they still couldn’t find the water.<br />
<br />
“Perhaps we’re in the wrong place?” still calm, CLH asked Ki. Yet, suddenly, they heard horse steps. Soon, four riders were seen riding towards them. The four riders stopped and started to fight with their sabres. Yet, they didn’t attack Chor et al, nor they attacked each other. Instead, they were just attacking the sand and the wind. Wu and Ki were confused, yet CLH just observed Stone Camel, who suddenly curled into a foetal position, shaking to the core. What’s with him?<br />
<br />
The gang then recognised the four riders. They were from the Peng Family. When they were slashing the air maniacally, an eagle soared from the sky and dove to steal a box that one of the Pengs dropped. The three riders died (of heart attack or stroke, I guess), yet one remained fighting the air. Wu rescued him and got some words of “Cruel devil, cruel, cruel devil…hundreds, thousands of cruel devils… kill!!” before the last Peng fighter also died. CLH et al buried Peng in-situ. Wu commented that he felt something like a chicken egg on the shoulder of one of the Pengs.<br />
<br />
That night, Ki Ping-yan found out from Stone Camel (through a sign language) that the person responsible for the death of the Pengs was also the person who tortured Stone Camel. Yet, Stone Camel didn’t want to tell Ki who that person was. Suddenly, 20 black-clad men besieged Chor Lau-heung et al. They demanded that CLH et al. gave them “that thing”. Since CLH had no idea what “that thing” was, he just let the 20 men searched through themselves and their belongings. Ki realised that CLH just wanted to know what the item in question was, thus his passive stance. Finally, they learned that the burglars wanted something called “The Star in Heaven”. Possibly it was contained in the box that the eagle had stolen?<br />
<br />
No, apparently I was wrong. CLH and Ki realised that the “chicken egg” that Wu felt on Peng’s shoulder could be “the Star in Heaven”.<br />
<br />
“If we tell you where it is, will you give us some water?” asked Ki. The burglars agreed. Ki showed it to the burglars, the burglars found took an egg-sized emerald from Peng’s shoulder, and then left. Wu was baffled that CLH and Ki were so passive. CLH and Ki explained that those burglars came without water and camel, two most important survival items in the desert. It means that they lived nearby. Soon after, CLH et al followed the burglars back to their village. They saw the 20 men returning to a hut in the village and spoke to a person whom they seemed to highly respect. Then they heard some strange melody… and then silence.<br />
<br />
CLH went pale-faced when he realised what happened. Wu ran towards the hut to find the 20 men died, committing suicide. The person the burglars talked to was nowhere to be seen.<br />

<br />
Apologies for the slow update on Barbara's tombstone. Last night, Rob informed me that the Hong Kong fan-club has persuaded the local newspaper to upload news about relocating Barbara's tombstone. The news was published yesterday (5 September 2017). Some of the HK media that uploaded this news are <b><a href="http://hk.on.cc/hk/bkn/cnt/entertainment/20170905/bkn-20170905201144123-0905_00862_001.html" target="_blank">HKON</a> </b>and<b> </b><a href="http://orientaldaily.on.cc/cnt/entertainment/20170906/00282_045.html" target="_blank"><b>Oriental Daily</b></a> (this is the <b><a href="http://epaper.on.cc/html5/?pub=odn#zoom" target="_blank">e-paper</a> </b>of Oriental Daily).<br />
<br />
In the Mainland, Sina has also picked the news for their own website, as seen <a href="http://ent.sina.com.cn/s/h/2017-09-05/doc-ifykpysa3494076.shtml" target="_blank"><b>here</b></a>. The title of the article implies that the tombstone is definitely going to be returned to Hong Kong.<br />
<br />
<b>翁美玲心形墓碑欲运回香港</b><br />
<br />
<b>We know this is not a certain case yet</b> - I wish it is... so let's keep praying and trying.<br />
<br />
At the moment, we're still hoping that Lam Chak et al in Hong Kong will be able to secure a place for Barbara's tombstone in HK. If by October (which is next month) we have not found a place, we need to ask Andrew Chan if it's okay for him to store the stone in Cambridge first until we find a place in HK. Funds can be raised for that storage as well; some Mainland fans have contacted me, stating that they are willing to donate some funds for the storage. If anyone would like to contact Rob directly, his email is rmmmm1959 at hotmail dot com.<br />
<br />
The rest of the Sina article is under the break. It says that Michael Miu and Felix Wong have been contacted, but so far there has been no traction. I hope we'll see the light at the end of the tunnel soon. I have also embedded a YouTube video I found just now about this news. Xinhua also put this news online, see <a href="http://news.xinhuanet.com/video/2017-09/07/c_129697805.htm" target="_blank">here</a> (Thanks to Rob Radboud for the link).<br />
<br />
<b>Update 13 September 2017:</b> Friday last week (8 Sept), Lian He Ban Bao (a Singaporean newspaper) published the news about Barbara's tombstone. Last Saturday, Rob Radboud sent me the scans. The scans are below the break, courtesy of Ann (Singapore).<br />

<b>翁美玲心形墓碑欲运回香港</b><br />
<br />
<i>翁美玲在英国剑桥的墓碑,因翁母的骨灰将与翁美玲合葬,而原有之心形墓碑亦会换上新墓碑,有翁迷正筹谋把心形墓碑运到香港摆放。</i><br />
<br />
新浪娱乐讯 据香港媒体报道,已故艺人翁美玲虽已离世32年,但翁迷仍然遍布世界各地,而翁美玲在英国剑桥的墓碑,稍后因翁母的骨灰将与翁美玲合葬,而原有之心形墓碑亦会换上新墓 碑,有‘翁迷’正筹谋把心形墓碑运到香港摆放,以让翁迷可睹物思人作对翁美玲怀念,不过几经奔走至今仍未觅得安放地点。<br />
<br />
据翁迷表示,翁美玲母女10月合葬,与翁美玲的家人、荷兰籍初恋男友Rob Radboud联系,希望将翁美玲旧有的心形墓碑运返香港,并在一个公开地方安放,惟寻找可以安放的地点并不顺利,曾查询香港不少寺院但都遭到拒绝,有翁 美玲的粉丝讨论过将墓碑放于翁美玲就读过的学校,以及找翁美玲生前好友苗侨伟及黄日华等帮忙,但暂未付诸行动,据说,翁美玲母亲谊弟的大仔Andrew指 若今年10月前找不到存放地方,会考虑将该心形墓碑暂存在英国的仓库或他的车库内。<br />
<br />
除了安放地点外,翁迷指该心形墓碑由英国运到香港的运费亦不菲,已开始为纪念碑筹集资金。<br />

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Chapter 11 (CLH tracked Ling-siok)<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chapter 10 ended with Chor Lau-heung evading Kaypang Pek-giok-mo’s
poisonous claws by feeding his opponent the painting he carried inside his
robe. Yet, Pek knew that the roll of paper was important to CLH, thus he didn’t
want to give it so easily.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Despite CLH’s
verbal tactics, Pek got nosy and opened the roll to see what was in it. He
frowned.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Why do you keep a painting of the late Leader Jin-lo’s
widow?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH couldn’t believe his luck. The beautiful Chiu Ling-siok
apparently married the late Kaypang leader!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, she apparently had changed her name into Yap Siok-tin,
for Pek didn’t recognize who Chiu Ling-siok was. Pek also said that Mrs Jin had
always been an amazing and pious woman, such that the sinful Pek admired her.
CLH thus deduced that Chiu Ling-siok had turned a new leaf after marrying the
former Kaypang Leader. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH asked if Pek knew where Ling-siok was; the latter said
he didn’t know. Pek finally took CLH to Leader Lamkiong Ling, for the latter
would know about Ling-siok’s whereabouts. CLH just had to tell Lamkiong Ling
about the black-clad foreign boy. Thus, following Pek, CLH roof-hopped the Kilam town, Yat
Dim-hung flew as well behind him. Pek told CLH not to tell Lamkiong Ling that
it was him (Pek) who took CLH to the Kaypang branch office. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Remember,” Pek said to CLH as they flew across town, “You
secretly follow me to the office, instead of me taking you to the office!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH nodded and – tongue-in-cheek – turned back to address
Yat Dim-hung as follows: “Yat Dim-hung, remember, you’re the one who secretly
follow me to the office, instead of me taking you to the office!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">(Me: LOL!!!)<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet Fell Cut was nowhere to be seen. CLH caressed his own
nose (just like Michael’s CLH would), musing how Fell Cut was always not around
when you wanted him to, yet he was also always around when you didn’t want him
to!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Pek showed CLH where the Kaypang branch office was, and then
he said, “Remember, you followed me here. I have nothing to do with you being
here.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I don’t see you now, and I don’t know where you’re going
to,” nodded Chor tai-gor humorously.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Excellent!” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH then watched what happened inside the branch office: the
desert fighter was already there, talking to Lamkiong Ling. Pek-giok-mo also
came in and joined the conversation, which escalated rapidly because the desert
fighter refused to tell why he caused riot in the Kaypang office two days
prior. Yat Dim-hung arrived at the scene and joined the ensuing fight. Seeing
his friends cornered by Kay-pang, CLH had to interfere by throwing some roof
pieces into the hall. Think Michael Miu’s Huang Yaoshi (LOCH 2017) with his
finger-thrown pebbles, but this time it was the roof pieces such as the one
Huang Rong used. Thusly, Fell Cut and the desert fighter were able to hurl away
from the Kay-pang office. When they were safe outside, the latter asked why
Fell Cut saved him. Because the stubborn Fell Cut said that he couldn’t care
less if the foreign fighter was dead or alive, the fighter got confused.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Are you farting or what, babbling this nonsense?!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Well, I destroyed my friend’s belonging, so I take you to
him in exchange,” was Fell Cut’s simple answer. Apparently, he felt guilty for
destroying CLH’s letter, hence he rescued the fighter, in the hope that the
fighter would be able to recite the letter to CLH. CLH arrived on cue, Fell Cut
left after delivering the fighter to CLH. CLH once again deduced that the
fighter must be the son of the Desert King (Ca Bok-hap, the Shadowless Sabre).
Realising that CLH knew where his father was, the fighter (who later told CLH
that his name was “Black Pearl”) relented and recited the letter. Signed by one
“Siok”, the letter was written, approximately, as thus:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“Since parting ways with you a few years ago, I am certain
you are much healthier and more lively than ever. On the contrary, I am now
withering and fading. Yet, since I am now in danger, I hope in view of our old
friendship, you deign to come and rescue me. If you refuse, my life will be no
more.”</i></blockquote>
<i><o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Since the Black Pearl was aware that Ling-siok was already
married to a Kaypang leader, when the Desert King failed to send his regular
news, the son was getting wary and traveled to the Central Plains to find his father.
Thus his adventure with Kay-pang, for the Beggar Clan apparently had no idea
where the widow of their previous leader was. <o:p></o:p><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“This is so fishy,” Black Pearl later commented. “Like, we
only know that the previous Kay-pang leader died. But how did he actually die?
Of illness? Has anyone seen it with their own eyes?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH said that what Black Pearl said just now was so true,
but he should keep it to himself for now. He then said that he’d investigate
this matter and report back to Black Pearl should he find anything. Black
Pearl, in return, told CLH how to contact him.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Go to Lake Tay-bing (the beautiful lake outside Kilam) and
find my black horse. Tuck his ear three times gently and say, ‘Take me to
Black Pearl’. Remember, three times only, and be gentle!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What if I tug four times with some pressure?” CLH couldn’t
help himself.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Then the horse will kick you into the bottom of the lake,”
replied the Black Pearl before disappearing. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Afterwards, Chor tai-gor decided to return to the Kay-pang
branch office. He was greeted by his old friend Lamkiong Ling, and to his
pleasant surprise, the Shaolin monk Biao-ceng Bu-Hoa was also there, just
finished preparing some dishes for him (remember that in Chapter 3, we learned
that Bu-Hoa was an amazing chef, perhaps even surpassing Sung Tim-yi (!)).
During the dinner and drinking session (where they drank wine directly from big
jars, instead of wine flasks), CLH said that the Desert King was also known to
be a great drinker. He then relayed that he found the Desert King died,
floating at the sea. He had so far hidden the body to avoid bloodshed, so that
no one in the Realm of Rivers and Lakes get to accuse one another. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Bu-Hoa commented that any criminal who crossed
paths with the Romantic Thief Chor Lau-heung was definitely unlucky. CLH said
that he’d be able to get into the core of the problem if he met Chiu Ling-siok.
Would Lamkiong Ling help him meeting the widow of the deceased Kay-pang leader?
Although CLH didn’t say how meeting Ms Chiu would help the case, he pressed
Lamkiong Ling so much that the latter agreed to take him to her isolated house.
Lamkiong Ling needed an hour to settle his own clan matters before he took CLH
to Ms Chiu.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH consented and left Kilam for Lake Tay-bing. He found the black horse, gently tugged the animal’s
ears three times, and thus were taken to Black Pearl’s boat. CLH borrowed Black
Pearl’s horse, because it would take two days return journey to Ling-siok’s
place. CLH also asked Black Pearl to accompany So Yung-yung, who would be
arriving from her own investigation in two days. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Please tell her to wait if I haven’t arrived by sunset.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Is she pretty?” Black Pearl was curious.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Just ‘pretty’ doesn’t do justice on her,” said CLH.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What is she to you? Is she your ex?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Don’t you think your question is rather uncalled for?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thus, CLH returned to Kilam to commence his journey to find
Ling-siok. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One day later, CLH and Lamkiong Ling (LKL) arrived at Mt.
Ni-san. As they climbed higher, they arrived at a cliff where a very fast river
was flowing. A small wooden block connected the two parts of the mountain; CLH
and LKL had to cross the block to resume their journey. Yet, a person was
already there, blocking the road. Despite CLH politely requesting a passage,
the person didn’t deign to move. He then introduced himself as “Thian-hong-cap-si-long”
from Japan. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Chapter 12 (CLH met Ling-siok)<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This fighter from Japan refused CLH passage. He also said he
knew Ling-siok, and he hated her for marrying Jin Yip, the previous Kay-pang
leader. The Japanese samurai (well, let’s call him that) attacked CLH with
shurikens for the latter kept asking for passage. The samurai’s jinsut (inner
energy?) blasted a tree; the poor tree yellowed suddenly. CLH still flew here
and there with his gravity-defying skill, evading the attacks. Next, the
samurai unsheathed his long glaive. He kicked off his sandals and step by step,
very slowly, approached CLH. After what seemed like a long time, the samurai
threw his glaive sheath towards CLH. Utterly surprised, CLH stepped back. The
samurai took this chance to charge forward and swing his glaive towards CLH. Cornered,
CLH bended to evade the glaive, and thus dove head down to the white water
below. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, instead of diving down to his death, CLH still managed
to rescue himself in the nick of time. One of his foot gained a few seconds of
contact with a stone, thus he used that contact to catapult himself up into the
air instead of going down. Like an eagle, CLH soared heavenwards before coming
back down with such a speed that the samurai’s glaive failed to slash him.
Instead, CLH grabbed the samurai’s hair and jerked it back, revealing that the
samurai actually wore a very thin mask to disguise himself. Although surprised,
the samurai still had time to hide his face. He fired a very thin wire from
within his sleeves and swung down into the valley safely. Laughing like a
maniac, he said,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Chor Lau-heung, now that you’ve tasted the fighting style
from Japan, is it not invicible?!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When the useless LKL came to praise CLH for being able to
evade the samurai’s glaive, the latter said that the attacker was not from
Japan. Otherwise, considering that Chor tai-gor never introduced himself, how
would the samurai know that he was Chor Lau-heung? Plus, the samurai had no
reason to mask himself, for if he was indeed from Japan, no one would know how
he looked anyway. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Soon after, CLH and LKL arrived at Ling-siok’s hut. The lady
of the house welcomed the visitors with such a charming voice that CLH couldn’t
help but feeling enamored by the voice (palm/face). CLH found Chiu Ling-siok
kneeling in front of an altar; she was wearing black clothes with a black thick
veil covering her face. After introducing himself, CLH said that he came
because of Sebun Jian, Cou Yu-cin, Ling Ciu-cu and Ca Bok-hap.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The lady said that she knew the four masters,
yet it was twenty years ago thus she had forgotten her ties with them. When CLH
asked if she had written any letters to them, she denied it. She also
challenged CLH who doubted her statement, saying that he didn’t even know her
writing style. When LKL tugged him to leave, CLH asked if Leader Jin’s body was
cremated. LKL said yes, it was the custom for Kay-pang. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Suddenly, the Jin widow (Chiu Ling-siok) said, “You don’t
need to regret it, my late husband was ill and bed-ridden for many years. He
died suddenly, not many people could see him. Why don’t you just leave.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor Lau-heung’s eyes suddenly lit as he thanked her. He
begged her leave and returned to Kilam with Lamkiong Ling. They reached Kilam
almost midnight on the third day. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>CLH
offered LKL some wine, the latter politely refused and went home. After the new
Kaypang leader left, CLH returned to Lake Tay-bing. He relayed his investigation
to Black Pearl, who got dejected because it was another road end. CLH then
asked if Yung-yung had arrived; Black Pearl said yes, but she died (!!).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Surprised, CLH asked how it happened. Apparently, Yung-yung
arrived a day prior to CLH’s arrival. Black Pearl saw her standing on a boat
nearby. Yet, before she met Black Pearl (the guy was walking towards her, but
still in a distance), four guys arrived to attack Yung-yung. The girl was
cornered and apparently died, her body fell into the lake, blood everywhere.
Black Pearl admitted he couldn’t find her body, though.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH went into despair. He frantically searched for any clue
on the boat where Yung-yung was attacked, but he found no trails at all. He
later saw an old man fishing on a small boat. The old fisher asked if CLH would
like some wine. CLH accepted the offer, finished the wine, and, silently
crying, asked for more. When the old fisher asked why the young gentleman
cried, CLH bitterly laughed and said, “This Chor person had never known how
tears taste like…”. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Watching the tai-hap crying, the old fisher said,
“Apparently, there is one person who is so sad in the idea that I died. What
will happen if I truly die?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Supremely elated, CLH looked back at the fisher and,
recognizing So Yung-yung, hugged her excitedly. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">(okay, I’m jealous.
It’s true apparently that the novel CLH loved Yung-yung… but since in my mind,
CLH is for Song Siu-ching, I’m jealous…)<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
By the way, this scene was borrowed for CLH 1984 series,
Episode 1. Remember how CLH returned to the boat to find that an old fisherman
told him that the Fragrant Boat was swept by a wild storm? CLH pretended to get
depressed and jumped into the cliff, thus the old fisher (who was Yung-yung
anyway) had to “rescue” him. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway, Yung-yung then narrated how she got away. She swam
well and she was carrying some powdered lipstick she previously bought for Sung
Tim-yi, thus her killers thought she had died. SYY also said that her
investigation in Sin-cui-kiong bore nothing. No man was ever allowed to enter
Sin-cui-kiong, but one lady was still dead as the result. CLH then narrated his
findings so far. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
[Here I conclude that the 1984 CLH once again was quite
faithful to the dynamics between CLH and SYY in the early episodes; they were
indeed the greatest of confidants. Although Song Siu-ching was not an original
character of the CLH novel series, i.e., she was not created by Ku Lung, I can
imagine how So Yung-yung would feel sad when CLH became closer and closer to
SC. It was the testament of Yung-yung’s maturity that she didn’t display any
irrational behaviours to SC, except when SC’s medicine backfired in Ep
11.]<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH then said that Chiu Ling-siok had given him some very
important hints despite her refusal to admit that she sent the letters to the
four greats. Ling-siok said that, her late husband was ill and bed-ridden for
many years, and that he died suddenly, not many people could see him. Yung-yung
agreed that there was something fishy with Leader Jin Yip’s death. CLH then
told her his plan to make Ling-siok tell him the whole story. SYY was worried,
but CLH just told her to have faith in him. Basically, “Just return home, cool my
wine jars under the sea, and and tell Tim-yi to cook some chicken for me. I’ll
be home in five days.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The sweet, beautiful and smart Yung-yung was a compliant
girl as well. She listened and agreed to CLH’s request. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
[note again: Perhaps this is where Barbara’s Siu-ching won
CLH’s heart. Song Siu-ching almost never listened to CLH. She was an opinionated
girl; she would follow her own heart, and although eventually she would listen
to CLH, she only did that because she knew he was right, not because he asked
her to do that. Song Siu-ching was a wild card that CLH never met before. She
was the only woman who challenged him, and he (at least Michael Miu’s CLH) apparently
liked that.]<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Happy, CLH left Tay-bing Lake for Mt. Ni-san. However, only a few
steps away from the lake, Monk Bu-hoa appeared to challenge him for some meals,
drinks and chess. CLH had no choice but to follow the monk back to Kaypang,
where Lamkiong Ling had been waiting with some food, wine and chess. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Chapter 13 (Ling-siok's story)<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, Chor Lau-heung knew he had to return to Mt Ni-san
immediately, hence under the pretext of going to the privy, CLH escaped Kaypang
(he actually left through a ventilation hole in the privy wall!!!). CLH
returned to Tay-bing Lake, borrowed Black Pearl’s horse again and dashed towards Mt
Ni-san in a hurry. CLH arrived in about 24 hours at Mt Ni-san, just around
midnight. He kept his house in a hunter’s hut at the bottom of the mountain,
then climbed the mountain on his own. By sunrise, he arrived at Ling-siok’s
hut. The hut was empty, nothing suspicious. Yet, CLH found how a hairpin was
strategically positioned towards the back door of the hut. He followed the lead
and found Ling-siok, still black-clothed and black-veiled, at the edge of a
cliff, holding a jar containing her husband’s ashes. In front of her loomed the
disgusting figure of Pek-giok-mo, who was definitely about to deliver a killing
strike with his long glaive. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Roaring, CLH declared that he’d never let anyone hurt
Ling-siok. The surprise factor gave him time to snatch Ling-siok away from Pek’s
view. Hurling the lady to safety, CLH realised that she had no kung-fu anymore,
thus she was definitely in need of protection. Pek attacked CLH with his long
glaive, CLH charged short-distance and dismantled the glaive with but a few
strikes. Pek’s long glaive fell into the cliff, yet CLH just let Pek go.
Confused because of the mercy, Pek-giok-mo left CLH and Ling-siok.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Left alone, CLH finally heard the real story from Chiu
Ling-siok. She indeed wrote four letters to Sebun Jian, Cou Yu-cin, Ling Ciu-cu
and Ca Bok-hap, yet not because of any romance. She wrote to them requesting
them to rescue her and her husband, for they had been kept captive by Lamkiong
Ling for the last three years. The evil LKL had poisoned Leader Jin Yip such
that the latter was left defenseless. LKL was apparently an orphaned that
Leader Jin Yip had adopted and raised as his own son; yet LKL shamelessly
poisoned his adopted father and claimed leadership afterwards. To evade LKL’s
suspicion, Ling-siok said to LKL that she’d write letters to the four greats to
borrow some money (because LKL had misused Kaypang’s savings – didn’t know that
Kaypang had savings…). When the four greats arrived, Ling-siok hoped that they
would help her and her husband, yet the four greats were instead killed by LKL
and another grandmaster who aided him. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When CLH asked how Leader Jin Yip died, Ling-siok said that
it was after drinking a “health” potion. Jin Yip’s body suddenly bloated and he
died because his blood vein and internal organs ruptured. It was the
Thian-it-sin-cui, the stolen poison from Sin-cui-kiong, that killed Leader Jin
Yip. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ling-siok also mentioned that Leader Jin Yip killed the
Japanese “Thian-hong-cap-si-long”. Twenty years ago, the Japanese samurai
challenged Jin Yip, yet the latter defeated and killed him effortlessly. Only
later that Jin Yip realised that the samurai was already fatally injured before
the duel, hence the easy defeat. Guilt-ridden, Jin Yip adopted the son of the
samurai. Ling-siok didn’t know who the person who defeated the samurai before
Jin Yip’s duel, but the information should be enough for CLH to resume his
detective work.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
However, Chor tai-gor still wanted to know one thing: Is
that okay to have a glance of the beautiful face of Chiu Ling-siok? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“You truly want to know?” was the quiet response of
Ling-siok.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Yes. I have been wondering for the last few days.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“You will be the second person to see me then, after my
husband, that is.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ling-siok slowly opened her veil to reveal a very ugly,
damaged face underneath. As if someone had splashed mercury on her face. Shocked,
Chor tai-gor lost for words. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Now you have seen me… are you satisfied?” asked Ling-siok
pitifully.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Shamefaced, CLH lowered his head. “I deserve to die… why did
I have to force you to unveil yourself?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“You don’t need to feel sorry…” said Ling-siok calmly as she
observed the passing clouds. “Sometimes I even want to thank the person
responsible for damaging my face… otherwise, how would I be able to feel so
calm and happy…”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then she narrated another story: that a very beautiful woman
called the Stone Kuan-yin was so jealous of her that the former demanded that
Ling-siok destroyed her own face. The Stone Kuan-yin left Ling-siok a very
destructive lotion and demanded that Ling-siok used it in three months,
otherwise she’d kill Ling-siok. Left with but three months, Ling-siok then
commissioned a painter to paint her (Master Sun Siu-cay). Just as the Master
finished the last painting, Ling-siok drugged him. Ling-siok then destroyed her
own face with the lotion that the Stone Kuan-yin left her with. Afterwards, totally
deranged, she carved out Master Sun’s eyes (OMG!!!) because she didn’t want him
to see her face damaged (and because she was losing her mind).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Now you know everything, you won’t forgive me, right…” she whispered
in pain.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor Lau-heung watched her sad figure for a while before
saying that, now that she had repented, he only knew the kind and pious Jin
widow, not the woman she used to be. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Afterwards the demonic episode, Ling-siok was rescued by Jin
Yip, who constantly reminded her that she was beautiful inside, despite her
already made the painter blind and despite Ling-siok always refusing to see the
Kaypang leader. In the end, Ling-siok changed her name and married Jin Yin.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Looking at the sky, Ling-siok caressed the ashes jar and
said, “I’m telling you, for me, no one is as kind as Jin Yip…”<o:p></o:p><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Chapter 14 (Lamkiong Ling's demise)<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After Ling-siok told Chor Lau-heung everything, most
importantly on the matter of Lamkiong Ling’s treachery, she had no reason to
live. She jumped into the valley with her husband’s ashes, with CLH looking
gloomily, knowing he wouldn’t be able to stop her despite his skills. Enraged
by LKL’s evil deeds, CLH returned to Kilam to confront his old friend. There,
he found the current Kaypang leader waiting for him with some wine (always like
that…). LKL asked CLH to sit down with him. CLH sat on a big sandalwood chair,
then they reminisced on the first day they met. The daughter of a famous person
was kidnapped, yet when CLH arrived at the scene to rescue the girl, LKL was
there already, rescuing the girl. Afterwards, LKL often visited CLH’s boat; he
even once made a painting of So Yung-yung. Once, the drunk LKL and CLH actually
caught a big sea turtle (they wanted to catch the moon, but then they caught the
turtle instead!). They cooked the turtle and had it for one full day… but then
they had stomach ache for two days (!). Take that!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway, after having a good laugh about those memories, CLH
and LKL started to face the reality. They were enemies now, and although it
pained CLH, LKL had to be brought to justice. Chor tai-gor demanded that LKL
leave jianghu/gongwu/kang-auw, and repent himself in isolation. CLH also
demanded that LKL told him which fighter aided LKL in his mission, for LKL
couldn’t do it himself. The “Japanese samurai” at Mt Ni-san should be the
master who aided LKL, and he should be the one who killed Song Kang as well. LKL
refused. LKL rose to the air to challenge CLH. Wasting no time, LKL launched
seven strikes towards his enemy, yet the former stood no chance because the
latter just welcomed those strikes, all the while still sitting on the big
chair (which also rose to the air as CLH rose to the air in a lotus position). CLH
returned to the ground as soft and gentle as smoke, his chair touched the
ground with no sound. On the contrary, LKL slammed back onto his chair with
such a noise. This fight clearly showed that CLH’s gravity-defying skill and
internal skill surpassed LKL’s. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Realising he was indeed no match to CLH, LKL signaled to
someone and, lo and behold, a giant fighter (looked more like a king kong than
a human) came out with immobilized Yung-yung! LKL said that he’d let SYY live
if CLH stop chasing him. Yet, LKL would still keep SYY with him as hostage,
forever. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Here we notice how So Yung-yung meant for Chor Lau-heung.
The tips of his fingers trembled despite his calm demeanor. CLH couldn’t let
the serial killer LKL run away, but he couldn’t let the latter kill SYY either.
Yet, while CLH was in agony trying to choose between the two options, help came
unexpectedly. A whip suddenly slashed the midnight air, strangling the giant
fighter, thus giving CLH the chance to jump into the air and rescued Yung-yung.
Black Pearl, the owner of the whip, appeared with Fell Cut. Apparently, upon
arriving at Kilam, CLH tied Black Pearl’s horse on a tree, yet the horse
released himself and returned to Black Pearl. Along with Fell Cut, the desert
fighter had been waiting for CLH’s arrival, thus they rushed to Kilam once they
saw the horse.<br />

A fight ensued where Black Pearl fought the giant human and
Fell Cut fought Lamkiong Ling. The Kaypang leader still had the indecency to
offer Fell Cut 10,000 taels to kill CLH; Fell Cut said that even prostitutes
would give some free service every now and then; thus he Fell Cut would kill
LKL for free today (!). Chor tai-gor gave himself some time to massage SYY,
releasing her from the blocked acupressure points. Black Pearl defeated the
giant with his brain, for the giant had little brain, apparently. Afterwards,
the desert fighter reprimanded CLH.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
“You do realise that we’re fighting for your life here, no?”<o:p></o:p></div>

“I am aware of that.”<o:p></o:p></div>

“Then are you not at least concerned?” Black Pearl got
irked. “Don’t you want to help Fell Cut?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH laughed, saying, “Do you think that once Fell Cut has
made up his mind to kill someone, he’d accept anyone else’s help?”<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
“And you’re just going to stand here and watch?”<o:p></o:p></div>

“Trust me,” CLH said, “In ten moves, Fell Cut’s sword will
injure Lamkiong Ling. In less than 30 moves, Lamkiong Ling will ask to stop the
fight. It’s no use for me to interfere beforehand.”<o:p></o:p></div>

“Ah, so you’re just a man who would choose a beauty over

<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, indeed in less than ten moves, Fell Cut injured LKL. Grinning,
CLH turned to Black Pearl. “What did I say? Less than 10 moves, even.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Giving up, Black Pearl started to pay attention to So
Yung-yung. He finally commented that she was indeed beautiful. However, she was
definitely not the most beautiful woman on earth.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“She might not be the most beautiful one,” said CLH, “But
she is definitely the gentlest one, the most loyal one, a woman who knows best
how to serve, and a woman who knows how to understand one’s heart. I have yet
to encounter anyone like her in this world.”<o:p></o:p></div>

At that time, LKL started goading CLH about the identity of his
partner in crime. When CLH said he couldn’t do anything when Fell Cut wanted
blood, the latter suddenly stopped fighting. Admitting a draw, Fell Cut turned
to CLH, stating that the evil Kaypang leader was now CLH’s. When CLH thanked
Fell Cut, the latter took a few seconds to reply with,<o:p></o:p></div>

With that, Fell Cut disappeared into the night. LKL used the
moment to goad CLH with another tactic: CLH need to release him if the King of
Thieves wanted to know who the other culprit behind the mass murders was. Realising
the importance of that information, CLH left Yung-yung with Black Pearl,
specifically instructing the desert fighter to tell Yung-yung to just go home.
Afterwards, Chor tai-gor followed Lamkiong Ling back to Lake Tay-bing. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p><br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
LKL took CLH to a small boat docked on the lake shore. A
table with plentiful food and some wine was clearly seen lit by the boat
lantern. LKL poured CLH some wine and started telling his old friend that his
(LKL’s) partner in crime was the only person who could defeat CLH. CLH realised
that this enemy was definitely formidable. LKL then said that he hoped that CLH
was not the person who unearthed the secret identity of his partner in crime. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I wouldn’t want him to kill my old friend who captured a big
sea turtle with me. That is definitely not something to be happy for.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor tai-gor replied, “I also hope that you’re still the
Lamkiong Ling who helped me catching the turtle.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
LKL laughed before frowning. “You’re not drinking your wine.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I tend to be very careful.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I poured the wine from the same pot. Here, I’ll drink your
wine to alleviate your concerns!” Lamkiong Ling finished Chor tai-gor’s wine. “You
shouldn’t worry too much. Who would be insane enough to kill Chor Lau-heung
with –”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, LKL suddenly suffocated. His body bloated, his veins
erupted, blood flew from every pore of his body. CLH jumped in surprise to realise
that the enemy had crossed the line by poisoning his own partner in crime. Nearing
the end of his life, LKL still couldn’t believe that his colleague would
double-cross him. The only thing he could say to CLH before he died was that, “…
he was my brother…”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And LKL died. Apparently, CLH was so close to uncovering the
truth that the enemy had to kill LKL as well. Shocked, CLH remained sitting on
the boat for a while until sunrise. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Finally, CLH realised most of the story. A Japanese samurai
went to the Central Plains to challenge at least two masters: Jin Yip of Kaypang
and another master. The samurai died, but not before leaving his two sons to
Jin Yip and the other master. Apparently, the sons of the samurai wanted
revenge, hence they killed Jin Yip. The four greats whom Chiu Ling-siok
contacted were just entangled in the drama in the most unfortunate moment, for the
real mastermind behind Jin Yip’s murder did not want anyone nosing around. Now,
CLH had to find the other master who assumingly adopted LKL’s brother. It has
to be done immediately before it was too late. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before CLH left Lake Tay-bing, Black Pearl arrived, telling
him that So Yung-yung had woken up and had returned to the Fragrant Boat. Black
Pearl then asked where his father was. Only then CLH told Black Pearl what
truly happened, that the Desert King had passed away. Enraged, Black Pearl demanded
to know who the killer was. CLH gestured to the boat, saying that Black Pearl
could find his father’s killer (a.k.a. Lamkiong Ling) there. CLH borrowed Black
Pearl’s horse again and rode as fast as possible for Bianglam, a city in the
south of Kilam. <o:p></o:p></div>

Bianglam was a city renowned for its tea and tea drinking
culture. People there took time to drink tea, they would sip it in small cups
to better enjoy the taste. CLH was resting at a tea café in Bianglam when he
met some old friends, one of them was a martial art expert who presented the
Wanderer with some high quality tea leaves. The expert (called “Chi the Mottled
Face”) said that he had actually kept the tea for a Shaolin monk called Master Thian-hong.
This Shaolin monk had been leading Shaolin since about 20 years ago. CLH then
realised that the great master he had been looking for, the one who might have
adopted the other son of the Japanese samurai, might be Master Thian-hong. <o:p></o:p></div>

CLH was about to depart for Shaolin with the tea that Chi
the Mottled Face gave him when another guest at the tea café asked for his
presence. The guest was none other than the Bald Eagle Toh Eng (a.k.a. the
Enhanced Ears in White Clothes) whom CLH met when the latter stole the jade
sculpture in Chapter 1. CLH asked if the Bald Eagle was there to retrieve the
jade, yet the older artisan just laughed it off. Bald Eagle then said that he
wanted to assist Kaypang for the murder of their new leader. Apparently, after
CLH left Lake Tay-bing, Black Pearl hacked the decomposing body of Lamkiong
Ling in revenge. Kaypang thought that LKL was dead because of the hacking, not
because of the poison. They asked Bald Eagle’s help to find the murderer. CLH
said that he knew the real killer of LKL, and he’d explain the killer’s
identity to Bald Eagle in three days. Afterwards, CLH rode again with Black
Pearl’s horse, to Poh-thian this time. To the headquarter of Shaolin Temple in
the south. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

Chor Lau-heung arrived at Shaolin around sunset. Having no
time for niceties, CLH tricked some very skilled monks so that he arrived in
the inner garden, just in time for him to interrupt a tea drinking session. It
was Master Thian-hong himself who was about to take a cup of tea from Bu Hoa,
CLH’s old friend. <o:p></o:p></div>

Calm as a Boddhisatva, Master Thian-hong just smiled as he recognized
Chor Lau-heung’s excellent ching-kung (gravity-defying skills). “Why should I
not drink this tea? It is not the elixir of the gods, but it’s of high quality
as well.”<o:p></o:p></div>

Flashing a quick glance at Bu Hoa, CLH took out the tea
leaves he just received from Chi the Mottled Face. Would Master Thian-hong
prefer this tea instead? The wise master seemed to know something fishy, thus
he accepted CLH’s tea and started to entertain his unexpected guest. CLH asked
Master Thian-hong about the fight with a Japanese samurai 20 years ago. And
thus we know another story.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
That indeed a samurai called Thian-hong-cap-si-long (wonder
what’s the Japanese name would be…) came to the Central Plains 20 years ago, yet he wasn’t
really planning to kill any masters. Instead, he wanted to die, for his wife
left him with his two sons (7 years old and a baby). The wife was Miss Li Ki,
the sole survivor of Ui-san sect, which was obliterated by Hoa-san. The injured
Li Ki left the Central Plains for Japan, where she was found by the samurai, who nurtured
her back to health. She later married the samurai, yet when her second son was
born, she left them for the Central Plains to revenge her sect. The samurai followed suit,
yet he couldn’t find his wife. Broken-hearted, he challenged Master Thian-hong
of Shaolin just so that he received the Master’s famous Shaolin strike. Heavily
injured, the samurai left his oldest son to Master Thian-hong before departing
to Kaypang. In Kaypang, the samurai challenged Leader Jin Yip, who killed him
with but a strike. Jin Yip then had to adopt the second child out of guilt.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Having told the story, Master Thian-hong asked if Chor
Lau-heung needed anything else. CLH said that he just wanted to talk to Bu Hoa.
The wise Master let the two young men go. <o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
In silence, Bu Hoa took CLH up the mountain forest behind
the Shaolin Temple. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“So that you know, I don’t respect you for not unmasking me
in front of Master Thian-hong,” Bu Hoa finally stopped and addressed CLH. “You
did that just to spare him some broken-heart, right?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor tai-gor laughed bitterly. “What if I also did that for
something else? Such as our friendship, perhaps?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What is left of our friendship is just some dust to me.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Dust can still make me cry,” CLH stated honestly.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“How much do you actually know?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
By now, CLH had deduced that indeed the samurai’s second
child turned out to be Lamkiong Ling, and the first son was indeed Bu Hoa. He had
his father’s martial art book that he practiced secretly in Shaolin, thus he
had the skills of a Japanese samurai. Bu Hoa was granted entry into
Sin-cui-kiong because he was not an ordinary man; he was a monk. He then
seduced a woman in that sect such that she stole the poison for him. Bu Hoa
needed the poison so that no one could pinpoint that he killed Jin Yip. Bu Hoa
also disguised himself as the Japanese samurai at Mt Ni-san, he also killed Song
Kang and played the zither to hypnotise Fell Cut at Lake Tay-bing. He killed
the nuns at Oh-i-am (no… it’s not pronounced “Oh, I am…”), yet one of the nuns was
able to utter “Bu…” to CLH, who much later realised that it meant “Bu Hoa”.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Afterwards, there was the last duel. Bu Hoa used his Shaolin
and samurai skills (including the Mighty Finger Flicks that could immobilize CLH’s
main accupoints). CLH used just ordinary moves, yet delivered in such speed and
agility, at least three times the speed of the fastest fighter in those days. Thunder
split the sky; it started to rain hard. Bu Hoa launched some shurikens, but CLH
just evaded them before one could blink. The last attack left Bu Hoa surprised,
because CLH just materialized again behind him. The monk had to admit defeat.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, CLH said that he wouldn’t kill Bu Hoa. He’d deliver the
monk to Kaypang instead to be accounted for his crimes. Bu Hoa sneered, “I don’t
believe Chor Lau-heung is a law-abiding citizen!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I just ignore laws and regulations produced by greedy
people. Yet, I will always uphold integrity, justice and truth! An emperor who
breaks the law also has to face justice, as normal citizens would. Don’t you
know these rules?!” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To that, Bu Hoa smiled. “Don’t you ever hope that those
people can touch me.” And thus, he killed himself. I don’t know how Bu Hoa did
that; perhaps by pressing an accupoint? It’s clear though that he didn’t die
falling off the cliff the way he died in the first episode of CLH 1984.<o:p></o:p></div>

waited with the Kaypang members. When Kaypang started to say that CLH might not
appear, Bald Eagle said that CLH was a man of his words. CLH arrived in time to
deliver the news that the killer of Lamkiong Ling had died. <o:p></o:p>When Kaypang demanded the killer's identity, CLH refused to tell

lost it.<br />

With that, Chor Lau-heung left Poh-tian in anger. He was
angry and irritated because of Bu Hoa, because of what he did and how he died. Now
he just wanted to return home to the Fragrant Boat, to the delicious food of
Tim Yi’s, laying on the deck next to So Yung-yung, listening to Li Hung-chao’s
stories. <o:p></o:p></div>

I like this first story of Chor Lau-heung. I don’t know a
lot about how he became so skillful, but I definitely know he was the considered
the best in his era. I see his smart brain and beautiful heart again here, and
we see that he still loved to see beautiful women. I don’t think he’s a womanizer
though; I haven’t read that CLH did anything disrespectful to the girls here.
If anything, it was the girls who wanted him to do something to them, haha!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I also see how CLH loved Yung-yung more than the other two
girls here… but not sure if that was amorous love. She was definitely the most
important of the three girls, so it could be amour there. (I’m jealous for
Siu-ching again). But at least, it shows me that CLH could be very worried
about the safety of his girls, thus his worry and anger for Siu Ching's life in my fanfic <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/2016/02/from-bat-palace-chor-lau-heung-1984-fan_6.html" target="_blank"><i>"Escape from the Bat Palace"</i></a> is not so far-fetched now. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Love to read about Yat Dim-hung here. Austin Wai’s depiction
of Fell Cut in the 1984 series was spot-on. I wish that we had seen the Black Pearl
in the 1984 series, but hey, I can still use him in my fanfictions then!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I also am somewhat relieved that Chor Lau-heung could be
angry as well. He was shown to be angry in some passages here, but he would
recover it quickly. I don’t think that he would recover his heart break about
Lamkiong Ling and Bu Hoa that fast… particularly for Bu Hoa… but that befitted
his sorrow when Zo Hing-hau died in the 1984 series.<o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
There is at least one hole in the story: in <a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/fluttering-fragrance-on-bloody-sea.html" target="_blank">Chapter 1</a>, CLH found five dead bodies. The four bodies belonged to Sebun Jian, Cou Yu-cin, Ling Ciu-cu and Ca Bok Hap (Black Pearl's dad). The fifth body belonged to a woman who dressed up as a Sin-cui-kiong disciple. Yet, a Sin-cui-kiong disciple who appeared in <a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/fluttering-fragrance-on-bloody-sea.html" target="_blank">Chapter 3</a> already confirmed that the dead woman was not of her sect. So... who was the woman then?<br />
<br />
Despite that hole, I enjoy Ku Lung’s CLH original story. I was having problems with following the Hakka (Hokkien) names, but I got used to it.<br />
<br />
Also, I’m
happy that the 1984 series actually depicted CLH pretty much true to the Gu Long original story. He was humorous yet gentle and righteous. He liked women (but I like looking at cute guys as well...), but he treated them with respect. He was not a womaniser like Ouyang Ke (ah, the LOCH 2017 OYK was still a cute guy tho!). CLH was very smart and his gravity-defying skill and internal skill were top-notch. Because Adam Cheng’s CLH held a fan all the time, I originally thought that CLH wielded a white fan, but apparently not. The 1984 CLH was pretty much true to form, for I haven’t “seen” CLH holding a
fan at all in this story. If anything, he liked to go bare-chested as he enjoyed
the sun on the Fragrant Boat deck.</div>

<b>Chapter 8 (CLH finally found a clue)</b><br />
<br />
Chor Lau-heung dove into Tay-bing Lake, pursued by the hypnotised Fell Cut. Here we learn again that Chor tai-gor was an excellent swimmer and diver (duh, his house was a boat!), and he was very fast and agile in the water. CLH almost effortlessly immobilised Fell Cut underwater and brought him back to the lake shore. CLH then dove back to the lake and pursued the harpist, who turned out to be a white-robed monk playing the zither on a small boat. The monk didn’t seem to realise that his zither had a lethal effect to Fell Cut. The monk was none other than Biau-ceng Bu-hoa, the monk CLH saw in Chapter 3 (Bu-hoa = flowerless). The monk recognized CLH despite the latter’s disguise. Giving up, CLH unmasked himself.<br />
<br />
Chor tai-gor then explained to Bu-hoa how three people had recognized him today. The first one was the monk himself, the second one was Fell Cut, and the third one the killer. Bu-hoa threw away his zither into the lake upon hearing Fell Cut’s name for the latter was a murderer, hence Bu-hoa’s zither has been tainted (for Fell Cut had heard its melody). Bu-hoa later discussed the killer’s Jinsut; that it originated in Arab and was brought to Japan via the Mainland. CLH returned to the lakeshore, installed Yat Dim-hung safely on the branch of a large tree, and returned to Kilam. He reintroduced himself properly as CLH to Leng Chiu-hun (who just woke up with a prostitute sleeping in his bed – gosh…). Leng reported that he heard of a stranger monk in town (named Thian-ing-cu) who wore a long thin blade as a weapon.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Worried that this Monk Thian would be the third victim of the letter, Chor tai-gor ran towards the place where Thian allegedly stayed overnight, the In-ping-lau Inn. The Thian guy was out, hence Lau-heung rummaged around his things, but he found none but an old love letter. Well, more like “unlove” letter, for a girl by the name “Ling-siok” seemed to have sent the letter to Thian asking him to forget her for she wasn’t that into him. Disappointed, CLH returned to Leng’s house, but he learned that the very Thian-ing-cu was just there to see him. CLH went back straight away to the inn, into Thian’s room. He found the monk pouring tea in such a trance that the latter didn’t realise that the cup had overflown and that the tea pot had no more tea.<br />
<br />
And yes, as CLH realised that the tea pot was out of tea, and that the tea had flooded the whole table, he gently tapped the monk and realised that the latter was dead. Someone shoved a sword from his back, so fast that the monk died without even realizing it.<br />
<br />
Deciding to take a break from the puzzle, CLH had an early lunch break at a restaurant. There, he saw Sim San-koh who was going out of Kilam. He followed her from a safe distance while also enjoying her sexy walking figure (palm/face). She finally found the person she was looking for in a slum; artist Sun siu-cay. San-koh showed the drawing master (who was now blind, hence he stopped drawing years ago) the beautiful painting of a beautiful lady. Miss Sim suspected that the beautiful woman in the painting was connected to the disappearance of her senior (Cou Yu-cin). Surprisingly, the drawing master Sun admitted that he actually painted not just one, but four, of such a painting. The artist also couldn’t forget the face of the lady he painted. The beautiful lady in the painting had apparently commissioned Master Sun to make four paintings to give to four men. It took Master Sun three months to finish the commission.<br />
<br />
All this time, CLH was listening to the conversation from outside the hut. It was surprising for Chor tai-gor to learn that the lady was very evil; she gorged Master Sun’s eyes out once he had finished the four copies. The woman said that, now that Master Sun had painted her, she didn’t want him to paint other women. Even the morally questionable Sim San-koh went pale-faced to hear the story. Master Sun still remembered the name of the woman: Chiu Ling-siok.<br />
<br />
Chor Lau-heung recognized the name, for he had seen it in the letter inside the deceased Monk Thian’s bag. At this point, CLH joined the discussion with the original pretext pretending that he was also in love with Ling-siok. However, he then realised that the painting Miss Sim had was a copy of the painting Chor Lau-heung saw earlier in Sebun Jian’s room (see Chapter 5). CLH thus realised that the woman was the missing link of the disappearance and death of Cou Yu-cin, Sebun jian, Leng-ciu-cu, and Ca Bok-hap.<br />
<br />
Miss Sim left in rage upon learning that CLH was the guy who captured her in the inn. CLH stayed and learned from Master Sun that the master painted Ling-siok in a nunnery 5 li from Kilam. CLH thanked the Master, took the painting that Miss Sim left behind and left, but not before telling Master Sun that there was nothing to stop the Master from painting again, despite his blind state. Master Sun thanked CLH… but somehow I think someone would kill the artist after CLH left…<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Chapter 9 (the arrival of a desert swordsman) </b><br />
<br />
Using a local “taxi”, Chor Lau-heung arrived at the Nunnery Oh-i-am (have no idea how to pronounce it, but it is not pronounced as “Oh, I am…”) and, based on Master Sun’s recommendation, met Siok-sim Taysu (Abbess Siok-sim) who was an old friend of Miss Chiu. CLH asked if the Abbess remembered Chiu Ling-siok; the Abbess said that CLH must have been informed by Master Sun about the painting.<br />
<br />
Unexpectedly, the Abbess informed CLH that Chiu Ling-siok had become a nun. The Abbess said that Miss Chiu had passed away, hence CLH left the nunnery. Back to square one. CLH couldn’t even tell if the letter from Ling-siok was the reason that the four masters (Cou Yu-cin, Sebun jian, Leng-ciu-cu, and Ca Bok-hap) disappeared and died. He only knew that Ling-siok was connected to the four masters.<br />
<br />
Yet, as CLH left, he realised that the Abbess should have not known that he had just met Master Sun. He returned to the temple, yet he only met some old nuns who said that he had come to the wrong temple. The temple was actually Tho-i-am, not Oh-i-am. CLH realised that he had been had; the palanquin driver took him to the wrong temple on purpose. CLH used his gravity-defying skill to reach Oh-i-am in no time. A deranged-looking nun took CLH into an abandoned hall (which actually made CLH rather scared, surprisingly). There, CLH walked into a trap, where he was almost killed by a sword attack and some shuriken-like weapons thrown skillfully from the dark. It was the same killer who killed Song Kang in Chapter 7. Upon realizing that he couldn’t kill CLH, the killer disappeared into the night. CLH found that Abbess Siok-sim was already long dead. He also found that the deranged nun (who took him into the hall) was dead because of the weapons thrown at him. Yet, before the deranged nun died, she regained consciousness (she might be under a spell?) and tried to say something. She could only say “Bu” before she also died.<br />
<br />
Chor tai-gor returned to Kilam to Kwi-gi-tong (the gambling place). He was almost hit by a black-clad rider who was speeding on a pearl-black horse (here we learned that CLH loved horses too, he immediately saw how beautiful and of high quality that black horse was). Apparently, the rider stopped at Kwi-gi-tong. The rider was a handsome male swordsman whose presence immediately commanded respect in the gambling place. Even Leng Chiu-hun carefully addressed the newcomer, who claimed he wanted to gamble, and the price would be Mr Leng coming with him. Leng quickly lost because the black-clad man threw the dice into the wall, such that only the first side was shown. Yet, before the foreigner dragged Leng away, Chor Lau-heung intercepted by offering to play another round. If he lost, he'd tell the foreigner whatever he wanted to know. If the foreigner lost, he had to answer CLH's questions. The foreigner, who seemed to have come from the western desert, accepted the challenge.<br />

<br />
<br />
CLH grabbed six dice and threw them, one by one. The first dice flew in a slow motion, controlled by his internal energy. Then he flicked the second dice, which immediately hit the first dice in the air. The next dices destroyed the previous ones such that no dice was left once CLH done showing off his internal skill. Chor tai-gor pulverised his six diced into a neat pile of dust. He won.<br />
<br />
CLH deduced that the black-clad guy was the son of Ca Bok-hap the Shadowless Sabre (a.k.a. the Desert King). The young desert fighter was apparently a pig-headed man who couldn’t admit defeat. He attached CLH with the renowned style called the "Star Flying Under the Cloud" (Hun-te-hwi-siang), yet CLH deflected his weapons with his own "Catching Shadows, Dividing Light" (Hun-kong-coh-ing). The desert guy changed tactic by using his whip to create an illusion of myriad whips attacking CLH; this whipping style was known as "The Ring Flies to Trap the Moon, the Cloud Spreads Inviting the Rain". CLH used some gambling bamboo tubes to break off the illusion. The two guys also exchanged innuendos while fighting. Suddenly, CLH threw some bamboo tubes away from the whip perimeter, thus lowering his guard, creating an opening for the whip to slash his beautiful face. CLH whirled away from the whip perimeter before back-flipping to the wall, chased by the desert fighter.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Chapter 10 (in which we see Yat Dim-hung again)</b><br />
<br />
In the nick of time, CLH was saved by none other than Yat Dim-hung! Fell Cut hit the tip of the whip with his sword, immobilizing the whip.<br />
<br />
"Hah! So you have an assistant to help you!" mocked the desert fighter. Chor Lau-heung said nothing; he just smiled as he touched the new scar on his face. The desert fighter mocked again, "So you fighters of the Central Plains have no honour at all! You lost, and then you call for help!"<br />
<br />
"You really think he lost against you just now?!" Fell Cut volleyed back.<br />
<br />
"My whip slashed his face, and you think I'm the loser here?" the desert fighter riposted.<br />
<br />
Sneering at the foreigner, Yat Dim-hung collected the bamboo tubes CLH used just now. Mocking back, Fell Cut threw the tubes back to the desert fighter, asking the latter to examine them. Only then the pig-headed desert fighter saw some tiny shurikens embedded on the tubes.<br />
<br />
Fell Cut smirked. “These small star weapons were the reason that Chor Lau-heung got slashed by your whip. Otherwise, how come you are still alive?! If he didn’t have to save you, you wouldn’t be able to touch the edge of his robe!”<br />
<br />
Apparently, during the fight, CLH saw someone attacking the desert fighter from behind, hence CLH threw his bamboo tubes to block the weapons. In the process, he lost his bamboo tubes, thus the desert fighter’s whip slashed his face.<br />
<br />
In shock, the desert fighter asked why Chor tai-gor didn't tell him about the deadly secret weapons. True to his noble nature, our tai-gor just said that they could not be sure that the weapons were aimed at the foreigner. The foreigner adamantly (and correctly) said that the weapons were thrown from behind his back; thus it had to be for the foreign fighter.<br />
<br />
To that, Chor Lau-heung said, "I don't mind getting a slash from your whip, why should I tell you about something that will upset you?"<br />
<br />
<i>(Chor tai-gor, I love you! You noble soul, you!)</i><br />
<br />
Thus the desert fighter got misty-eyed. To save the black-clad guy from the uncomfortable feeling of having another guy watching him cry, the kind Chor Lau-heung turned his attention to Fell Cut and asked if the killer saw who threw the shurikens. It was a negative. The desert fighter said he knew who the killer was. He gave CLH the letter that was sent to his father, then he left the building. Just outside the building, a drop of tear fell from his proud eyes.<br />
<br />
However, Fell Cut didn’t let CLH read the letter easily. He grabbed the letter with his sword, thus CLH had no choice but engaging in a fight with Fell Cut. Fell Cut wanted to test CLH’s skills, while CLH just wanted to read the letter. At some point, CLH had to trap Fell Cut’s sword with his two palms to get the letter. Fell Cut persisted, hence they channeled their inner strength into the sword. CLH towering over Fell Cut as his body hanged on the latter's sword tip as if he was a mere flag, preventing Fell Cut's sword from stabbing his chest. Meanwhile, Fell Cut held his stance on the ground, trying so hard to win the game. Realising he had to change the leverage, Fell Cut jumped into the sky and forced his sword Earth-ward. CLH would have to let go of the sword, otherwise he would slam into the earth, stabbed by the sword.<br />
<br />
Yet, CLH swirled sideways, both palms still pressing the end of Fell Cut's blade, not letting it go. Eventually, Chor Lau-heung slammed to the ground with a cracking sound. Yet, it wasn't his body broken; it was the sword. Yat Dim-hung's sword snapped, and the letter was pulverised because of their inner strengths. CLH was stunned to see that the letter he coveted so much was destroyed. Pale-faced, Fell Cut just realised how important the letter was to CLH, yet, CLH kindly apologised for breaking his opponent’s sword.<br />
<br />
<i>(Truly, I love CLH so much by this stage, if that is even possible!)</i><br />
<br />
Unexpectedly, the desert guy returned to the gambling hall, looking nervous and concerned about something. He ignored the pulverized letter and hid behind one of the hall’s thick curtains. Soon after, about 20 snakes slithered into the gambling hall. Fell Cut killed the biggest snake, while CLH just perched on a table, observing his surroundings. Soon, some Kaypang members entered the hall. One of them, a clean-looking beggar, roaring in anger to see his snake died.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The clean-looking beggar was Pek-giok-mo of Kaypang. Ten
years prior, he was expelled from the Beggar Clan by the previous Leader (Jin-lo
pangcu) because Pek raped and murdered 17 virgins (!!!). After Leader Jin-lo died
recently, the new leader (Lamkiong Ling) reinvited Pek to return to Kaypang. Pek
was still the insufferable bastard he was that CLH didn’t want to disclose the
location of the desert fighter. Ticked, Pek-giok-mo launched his snakes at CLH,
yet Chor tai-gor killed the snakes without even using any blade (he killed the
snakes by pinching the points on the animals’ necks). Majorly vexed, Pek
launched his own attack where his hands suddenly produced green poisonous
smokes. Yet, just as Yat Dim-hung warned CLH, the new Kaypang leader interrupted
the fight. Lamkiong Ling scolded Pek for being impolite to his old friend CLH,
then he asked if CLH indeed had not seen a black-clad foreigner. Ling claimed
that the foreigner had caused a ruckus in Kaypang two days prior, thus he had
to finish the unfinished business with the foreign pretty boy. After a searching
session, Lamkiong Ling excused himself and his men, leaving CLH only with Fell
Cut. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Only then the desert fighter revealed himself. He was hiding
behind a curtain, yet he knew Ling would find him there. So he took off his
shoes, left them a bit seen under the curtain and sneaked out of the window. He
then returned to the hall from another window, sneaking into another curtain
and watched as Lamkiong Ling slashed his shoes, only to find nothing behind the
curtain. After some exchange, CLH then found out why the desert fighter looked
so scared when he entered the hall. The foreign boy hated snakes! He wasn’t
afraid of Kaypang, he was afraid of snakes!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH produced a gale of laughter as he learned of this funny
fact.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, his laughter was interrupted as Pek-giok-mo returned to
the gambling hall. Apparently, Leader Lamkiong Ling already suspected that the
foreign fighter was there. He only respected CLH, hence he ordered his men to
leave. Yet, he issued another order for Pek to return to get the boy. The boy
fighter himself disappeared so quickly as he heard Pek’s voice. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Annoyed that Chor Lau-heung truly hid the boy from Kaypang, Pek-giok-mo
resumed the interrupted fight with our tai-gor. He used poisonous claws, which
CLH successfully evade many times until he allowed himself to be cornered. CLH
was almost too late to realise that Pek’s claws were actually extendable. The
claws extended unexpectedly, almost hitting CLH’s chest had CLH not reached for
the painting inside his robe and fed the claws with the painting instead. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Grinning, CLH said, “Although you want to kill me, I don’t
want to kill you. Now that you have demonstrated your excellent skills, will
you return my stuff your claws have there and just get lost?”<o:p></o:p></div>

<i>Continuing on last week's summary of "Fluttering Fragrance on the Bloody Sea" (Chapters 1-3), here I post the summary of Ch 4-7. This Chor Lau-heung story from Ku Lung was written in 16 chapters, so I should be able to cover all chapters in four posts. From Chapter 7, each chapter seems to be quite long, hence it does take me a while to read and summarise each chapter.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><br /></i>
<br />
<b>Chapter 4 (CLH taking a fake ID)</b><br />
<br />
The Sin-cui-kiong swordswoman confirmed that the dead female was not part of her school. Also, a young woman in her school committed suicide after getting pregnant, just after the famous poison disappeared from her school. The woman (who finally revealed that her name was Kiong Lam-yan) gave Chor Lau-heung one month to find the thief and the murderer.<br />
<br />
Not one to shy away from misteries, CLH accepted the challenge. However, he still had time to day-dream about Miss Kiong’s pretty face, such that Li Hung-chao commented that he “won’t find her beautiful anymore when she shoves her sword on your throat next month!”<br />
<br />
CLH gleefully replied that Miss Kiong used no sword as a weapon, to which Hung-chao riposted as she battered her eyelids, “Ah, so she used a kitchen knife, eh?”<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>I find CLH-LHC interactions in the earlier episodes of Chor Lau-heung 1984 are in line those depicted here.<br />
<br />
Chor tai-gor asked Yung-yung to meet her aunt in Sin-cui-kiong. He also asked her to provide him with a good fake identity (based on real people), preferably a very rich guy who had no problem spending money. He would like to investigate Kilam where Cu-soa-bun was located, for Sebun Jian (one of the victims) hailed from that school. CLH chose Kilam because it was the closet city to where he was now. The headquarters of the other schools (Hay Lam Sect, Thian-sing Sect and the Western Desert) were too far away for convenience.<br />
<br />
CLH went into a room inside the boat where Yung-yung stored her costumes and data of hundreds of fake identities. The room was hexagonal; mirrors and wooden shelves adorned its six walls. First, CLH considered the identity of a banker and read the banker’s habits:<br />
<br />
“Always takes off the shoes upon passing wet pot holes; always try to use other people’s umbrella when it rains; he smells like he never takes a shower.”<br />
<br />
Without even finishing the dossier, CLH closed the book and swore off, “I’d rather die than disguising myself as this guy!”<br />
<br />
So he chose Thio Siau-lim, a rich drug store owner who liked to gamble and drink, as well having a penchant on pretty women. Sounds like himself.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Chapter 5 (CLH investigating Kilam)</b><br />
<br />
As Thio Siau-lim (might be Cheung Siu-lin in Cantonese?), Chor Lau-heung entered the gambling place in Kilam City. He lost big time, but the operator (Leng Chiu-hun from Cu-soa-bun) found out that “Mr Thio” actually won, but he pretended to lose. Getting Leng’s attention, “Mr Thio” admitted that he actually wanted to talk to Senior Sebun Jian about a job that would generate a profit of 3 million taels of silver (!). Let's remember again that Sebun Jian was one of the victims CLH found a few days ago, thus Leng Chiu-hun was Sebun Jian's student. <br />
<br />
Leng admitted that his teacher was out of town, but Master Sebun left after receiving a letter, currently kept by one Mr Nyo Siong. Attracted by the 3 million taels profit, Leng took Mr Thio to see Nyo Siong. However, as they arrived at the latter’s house, they found that he had been ruthlessly murdered, his limbs scattered around the room and the garden, his belongings scattered everywhere. The letter that Sebun Jian received earlier had vanished. Leng immediately attributed the murder and robbery to the “Five Devils Distributing Bodies”. Although Leng originally suspected Thio for wrongdoings, Thio convinced Leng to inspect his teacher’s room. Nothing was found in Sebun Jian’s room except for a half-body painting of a very gorgeous woman.<br />
<br />
Thio Siau-lim (aka Chor Lau-heung) later returned to his hotel; Leng placed eight guards outside the hotel to prevent him getting away (Leng still wanted the 3 million tael job). That night, a black-clad woman entered Chor tai-gor’s room through a hole she made in the roof. The woman carried a sabre called Liu-yap to; she seemed to be in search for something.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Chapter 6 (in which CLH met someone who would become his good friend)</b><br />
<br />
CLH pretended to just stirred from his sleep when he saw the thief. Unexpectedly, the woman took off her clothes and joined CLH under his blanket (CLH happened to be naked!). The woman tried to arouse CLH as she asked what he actually wanted from Mr Leng, but CLH immobilised her easily. Since the (naked) woman didn’t want to admit anything, CLH (as Mr Thio) gave her (still naked) to Leng’s eight guards standing outside. <br />
<br />
Realising that the woman must be from the Thian-sing Sect, CLH got dressed, went out of his room from the room and used his gin-kang (gravity-defying skill) to roof-hop the city until he reached Thian-sing pang’s building. A man was asking if “Sister Sim” had returned, CLH threw the sabre to the ground and declared that Miss Sim was already captured by “our school”. He then left, chased by a green-sword-wielding fighter. The fighter attacked CLH with a “Taking the Soul without a Trace” style, revealing that he was It-tiam Ang, “A Red Dot from the Mainland”. He tried to kill CLH with at least 14 strikes, but he never succeeded. As he and CLH were engaged in a deadly conversation of why CLH never killed, the pupils of Thian-sing-pang came and told the killer to just kill the intruder, for that was why the school hired him. Vexed, It-tiam Ang killed the nosy student with but a strike. The student died with but a dot of blood on his throat.<br />
<br />
This It-tiam Ang is none other than our Fell Cut, Yat Dim-hung! His official name was indeed 中原一點紅, a.k.a. One Red Dot in the Central Plains. Jung Yuen Yat Dim-hung.<br />

True to his nature, as he was offended, Fell Cut just left the rooftop. CLH didn’t want to waste time and flew away as well. He returned to Cu-soa bun to interrogate the Sim girl. (During the interrogation, we also learned that Chor tai-gor liked to touch his own nose from time to time, just like our Michael in CLH 1984). Sim San-koh finally admitted that she wanted to know if Leng Chiu-hun’s school had anything to do with her first senior brother (Cou Yu-cin) missing. Intrigued, Thio Siau-lim (CLH) asked if Teacher Cou had received a letter before leaving; Miss Sim confirmed. The letter was now at her senior’s, Song Kang. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Chapter 7 (in chasing a killer)</b><br />
<br />
Soon after, Song Kang and his crew came to release Sim San-koh. Fell Cut also came, but he was nonchalant and cold as usual. Leng Chiu-hun used Sim as the human shield to demand that Song Kang and his school would never enter Kilam again. Song Kang agreed, but he also instructed Fell Cut to kill Leng. Fell Cut refused because he wanted a fair fight with Leng. When Song Kang asked Fell Cut to kill CLH (in his identity as Thio), Fell Cut returned the silver he got from SK, stated that he (Fell Cut) could kill anyone but that guy, and left. CLH later asked Song Kang about the content of the letter from his senior. Song Kang said he’d burned the letter, but he still remembered its content. Yet, before he said anything, someone already killed him. CLH leapt to the sky to pursue the killer until he arrived at Lake Tay-bing, a very famous lake outside Kilam. The murderer escaped by blasting a purple smoke that temporarily slowed down CLH’s movements. From the killer’s “Jinsut” (vanishing skill), CLH later wondered if the murderer was from Japan.<br />
<br />
A second later, Fell Cut appeared to challenge Chor tai-gor. Our tai-gor refused because he didn’t want any bloodshed. Failed to coerce CLH, Fell Cut attempted to kill himself. CLH had no chance but to fight, trying to dismantle Yat Dim-hung’s own sword so that the latter didn’t commit suicide. In the midst of the fight, a powerful zither melody was heard. The zither melody was so powerful that it controlled Fell Cut’s mind such that he stopped trying to commit suicide. Instead, he relaunched his attack at CLH. Fell Cut under the hypnosis was a much more dangerous Fell Cut, thus in despair CLH dived into the lake to escape him.<br />

Now we know how Chor tai-gor met Yat Dim-hung! How exciting! On the other hand, I was surprised by Gu Long's graphic descriptions of nakedness in this story. I don't think Jin Yong went that far... </div>

Heung original story by Ku Lung</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">I’m
currently reading an original story of Chor Lau Heung by Ku Lung (Gu Long) in
Indonesian. It seems the original title is Xue Hai Piao Xiang (</span>血海飄香<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">, Hyut3 Hoi2 Piu1 Heung1), but the
Indonesian PDF was only titled as “The Romantic Thief” (“<a href="https://dunia-kangouw.blogspot.com.au/2017/06/download-maling-romantis.html">Maling
Romantis</a>”). The literal translation of the characters should be “blood,
sea, float/flutter, fragrant”, which may be loosely translated to “Fluttering Fragrance
on the Bloody Sea”.</span> The PDF is 212 pages, and I’m only on Chapter 3. But
it’s actually quite interesting, such that I’m determined to finish it. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It will take some time to finish it, though. One of the
reasons is because the names in the story is written in Hakka (Hokkien), hence
I have to get used to reading through the names. I can recognize Chor tai-gor’s
name immediately though (“Coh Liu-hiang”), as well as So Yung-yung (So
Yong-yong), Li Hung-chao (Li Ang-siu) and Sung Tim-yi (Song Thiam-ji). For the
benefit of the readers, I’ll try to summarise this story per chapter. I won’t
bother with standardizing the names; I will just write the Hokkien names in
Hokkien, except for Chor Lau-heung’s and his adopted sisters; I’ll write them
in Cantonese. If Wu Tit-fa appears, I will definitely write his name in
Cantonese as well.</div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Chapter 1 (About a "Bi-jin" Jade)<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor tai-gor stole a large jade sculpture from the house of a very rich Kim Pian-hoa in the Capital in a very funny way. The King of Thieves sent his usual warning letter to Kim, who immediately recruited three very skillful martial artisans to defend his jade: Ban Bu-tik (a.k.a. the Steel Strike, Silver Bark), Bald Eagle Toh Eng (the Enhanced Ears in White Clothes), and Seng-si-poan (whoever he was). At 1 am Chor Lau-heung appeared and, pretending that he actually had stolen the jade an hour earlier, lured the three people out and immediately snatched the original jade from the safe deposit.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Later, Chor Lau-heung returned to his Fragrant Boat, where
he lazily sun-bathed on the deck while holding the jade sculpture (in the form
of a beautiful woman. Once a Chor Lau-heung, always a Chor Lau-heung…). Chor
tai-gor is described here as having “two thick eyebrows with manly attitude,
yet his clear eyes showed his gentle heart. His straight nose showed his
firmness in decision and action. Yet, once he laughed, his firmness turned into
a gentle romance, his stern expression turned immediately to sympathy and
compassion.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor Lau-heung also had no scruples in boasting about his
latest glorious robbery: “Ban Bu-tik is renowned for his excellence in martial art;
rumour has it that his two steel pencils would easily immobilize the 218 points
at one’s body. Yet when I moved around him, he just stood there unresponsive,
as if just waking up from a dream. Really, the only one deserving some attention was the old Bald Eagle Toh Eng. The rest were just clowns.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Li Hung-chao came on to the deck, dressed in a charming
scarlet dress. She delivered a report to Chor tai-gor thusly: “The item you
stole the other day has been sold for 300,000 taels. Of those, we have given Family
Wong 1,000 taels, Family Tio and Thio 5,000 taels each, for Mr Ong’s funeral
1,000 taels, for Tio’s wedding 1,500 taels, for Mr X…” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When Chor tai-gor exhaled, Hung-chao resumed, “In short, the
300k taels is gone. Plus, I have used 4,000 of the extra 5,000 taels you gave me
from your personal account for our daily expenses.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When Chor tai-gor bitterly laughed and asked her to budget a
little, Hung-chao commented how the people in gong wu (jianghu) had no idea
that Chor Lau-heung also used his own money to help people, not just diverting his
stolen goods to those in needs.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Next, we are introduced to Sung Tim-yi, whose loose swan-yellow
dress failed to hide her smooth skin, yet whose village accent invited a rather
snobbish comment from Li Hung-chao. I didn’t know that Tim-yi had a village
accent… that’s interesting. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Tim-yi was still
an excellent chef here, she cooked two grilled pigeons, some slices of ox meat,
half a fried chicken and one carp for lunch, accompanying two plates of rice, a
bowl of tomato juice, a bottle of red-brown wine and a ripe orange. Yum…<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We learn here that Chor tai-gor loved eating. Yet, his lunch
was disturbed when a dead body, floated towards his boat. Oh, and Miss Sung was
scared of dead bodies.<o:p></o:p><br />

bodies at sea<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
CLH et al found not just one, but five dead bodies. Those
are: Cou Yu-cin the Deathly Seven Stars, Sebun Jian the Scholar with the Killing Hands, Ling Ciu-cu (one of the
Three Swords of the Hay-lam Sect), Ca Bok-hap the Shadowless Sabre (a.k.a. the
Desert King), <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and a sari-wearing
swordswoman who seemed to be the student of Sin-cui-kiong. Cou Yu-cin came from the Thian-sing Sect. Sebun Jian was from Cu-soa-bun in a city called Kilam. Ling Ciu-cu was from the Hay-lam Sect, while the only dead woman was from Sin-cui-kiong. Both sects were located a few days' journey from Chor tai-gor's current location. Ca Bok-hap came from the Western Desert.<br />
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>From their forensic,
they concluded that at least four of the victims killed each other in a deadly
fight; yet it was unlikely that the fifth victim was also killed by the same
people in the circle of five victims. There should have been the sixth person
who was responsible for the massacre. At least that sixth person was
responsible for killing the Desert King Ca Bok-hap. CLH deduced that, after
obscuring his tracks thus, the real killer eventually got away with a famous
sabre called Toa-hong-to.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Here we are also introduced to So Yung-yung, whose long hair
cascade down her back, gently covered by a flowing robe, and whose steps were
as light as smoke. Yung-yung had a cold, hence she was downstairs during the
first chapter. Tim-yi said that Yung-yung apparently had an aunt residing in
Sin-cui-kiong.<o:p></o:p><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Chor tai-gor dived into the ocean, looking for a clue. Upon
returning, he still had time to prank Tim-yi by throwing a fish into her robe.
Tim-yi retaliated by hitting and pinching her tai-gor repeatedly. CLH said that, while he was swimming and diving the lake, he
met Biau-ceng Bu-hoa, a skillful Shaolin monk who excelled in zither, painting,
poetry and… also cooking (!). CLH met this new character three times prior to
this story: three days and three nights drinking (CLH won), five days and five
nights playing chess (a draw), and seven days and seven nights debating about
Buddhism (CLH lost). CLH also met Lamkiong Ling, the new chief of the Kaypang
(Beggar Clan). So<o:p></o:p>, here we also learn that Chor tai-gor is actually an excellent drinker and very well-versed in Buddhism (although he still lost after seven days of contest).<br />

We also learn that the Fragrant boat had rooms under the
deck. As the gang entered the main bedroom (CLH’s), they found a woman sitting
there on CLH’s favourite chair, drinking wine from CLH’s favourite cup. No one
knew how and when the woman entered the boat. The very beautiful woman (whose beauty
caught CLH off-guard) wore a white saree and silver sash. She was from
Sin-cui-kiong, and she<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"> accused
Chor tai-gor for stealing a “Thian it sin cui”, a very potent poison
that could kill a very strong person with a single drop.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">CLH
realised that that poison was used to kill one of the five martial artisans,
hence he dragged his new guest upstairs, the woman allowed him to do so. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">It’s
interesting to see that this original Ku Lung CLH story feels like the 1984 CLH
that I’ve watched faithfully. This Chor Lau-heung was quick-wit, charming, smart, and excelled in gravity-defying art, as expected. However, it's interesting to learn that he actually also liked to eat! He might not be a glutton like Hong Qigong (LOCH), but apparently CLH also truly enjoyed food. I mean, in the 1984 series we've seen CLH eating, of course, but we never saw him gulping down his food a la Szeto Man-mo. Come to think of it, even though CLH liked eating, he would still be eating gracefully...(if that's even possible).</span><br />
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">About the novel, I was reluctant to read it at first, hence the
PDF had been sitting in my laptop folder for almost two years. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>See, I read discussions on how Adam Cheng’s
Chor Lau-heung saw the three girls more like girlfriends (with a romantic
sense) than sisters, hence I have been reluctant to see Adam Cheng CLH series.
However, so far CLH in this story acted like Michael Miu’s CLH. He was
definitely quick to see a beautiful lady, and I think Michael’s CLH was like
that too, at least in the beginning until he met Barbara’s Song Siu-ching. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">It's also interesting to know that CLH used his own money to help people (he surely invested his stolen goods somewhere, like in an ancient Hang-Seng or something?). And so funny to know that Tim-yi had a village accent!</span><br />
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Plus, I just realised that the Enhanced Ears Toh Eng would have been the model for Inspector Ying Man-lei in the 1984 Chor Lau-heung series. Both were different people, but both had their ears damaged, thus they received enhanced ears as a compensation. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

be interesting to see how the story unfolds…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">My
apologies for my absence last week; I was just busy with some private stuff… I
also didn’t make anything special this week. One of the main reasons was because I have been
immersing myself with another genre (J-manga), specifically on my recent
awareness that a Candy Candy novel that rewrote Candy White Ardlay’s love story
exists since 2010 (<i>Candy Candy the Final Story</i>). For those also growing up with
Candy, you can read my <a href="http://becomingicha.blogspot.com.au/2017/07/candy-candy-final-story-real-happy.html" target="_blank"><b>reverie here</b></a>. For those who don’t know what or who Candy
is, and have no intention to read, perhaps I can direct you to the last few episodes
of LOCH 2017? I haven’t finished uploading the episode highlights, despite the
fact that it ended last April. My apologies, but at least now I have kicked
myself to post this… next weekend I should be able to return to the old 1980s
MB series once more.</span></div>

Sure, the first few fights of the Freaks were too slow for my 80s taste, but the Freaks are very likeable. I actually wished Zhu Cong (Second Teacher, played by Ji Chenmu) and Han Xiaoling (Seventh Teachers, played by Xiao Yinshi) became lovers, but perhaps Zhu Cong felt uncomfortable to take his brother’s girlfriend, even after more than a decade… But the way Zhu Cong and Han Xiaoling interacted in the restaurant made me wish… they at least had a secret crush between them… Their chemistry was much much better than the forced chemistry between Lu Guanying and Cheng Yaojia, IMO!</span></div>

HYS vs Quanzhen-First Freak-GJ; Hong Qigong and (surprisingly) GJ cleared up
HYS from the murder accusation of Old Imp; Quanzhen tried to heal First Freak

Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre when he asked GJ to severe the boy’s relationship

injured himself to avoid hurting HR; West Venom et al arrived just as GJ was

MOST DEFINITELY the first 13 min fight between HYS and Quanzhen-First Freak-GJ.
Any complaints I had that HYS was not given enough fighting scenes evaporated
now, although those complaints were indeed justified. I know Michael Miu didn’t
do all the fight scenes, but those he did (and did not) were awesome fights! It
was also funny to see HYS smirking or frowning when he started to get irritated
by the Quanzhen. Love Michael here, totally!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Book of Wu Mu to help Genghis Khan in his war against the Jins, but since GJ’s

<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In
conclusion, I think the 2017 LOCH was a very decent series. I am glad that we
have this series, so faithful to the novel, yet also with some interesting
twists that still paid nods to the original. I also heard from CBWarm (SPCNet)
that the Cantonese version is well-received in HK, the third in the rank of HK
viewing during its airing time. I’m happy for the whole cast, particularly
Michael who had made a very amazing comeback to the wuxia genre after decades
of absence. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The
series is over, and I feel a bit sad. There are weaknesses, but I can overlook
them. I love many parts of this series, and yes, I even start to accept this 2017
HQG. I hope you enjoy the series as well. Sorry that I haven't peppered this post with a lot of screen caps, I hope I can slowly slowly fill it with screen caps that are not just about Michael Miu ^_^</span></span></div>

The girl
walked nervously towards the bush, her red bells tinkling merrily as she
walked, betraying her trepidation. Upon arriving at said bush, she looked
behind to see that no one was following her before entering the bush, carefully
such that the branches did not unravel a single thread of her sky blue dress.
The dress, as blue as the sky above the gentle river behind her, was, after
all, her favourite.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">The person
she was waiting for was sitting in the bush, waiting for her, fidgeting. She
tsk-ed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“You know,
Chor tai-gor is the thief here, not me! I don’t like this hide and seek!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Well…You’re
supposed to be his adopted sister, surely you share the trait in hide and seek…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">The girl
glared. Although she had been missing him earlier, seeing him sitting like a
coward annoyed her. She snapped. “Shut up! Now tell me that you’re ready for
this.” When the person she talked to mumbled, her blood boiled. She stomped her
left foot and, as she said, “I knew it! You’ll never be ready!” she turned back
to leave.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yet, the
man she talked to held her hands and, softly, begged her to stay.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I’ll do
it…” he stuttered. “I will do it. I promised you, so I will do that.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“But?!” She
snapped again, for she knew there would be a ‘but’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">It was a
while before he replied. “I’m… nervous…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">That melted
her heart. Slowly, she turned and faced the man she had come to love for the
last ten moons or so.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I know.
I’m nervous too…” she touched his hands, they were cold despite the summer
weather. She resumed. “But if we don’t say it now…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I know.
We’ll never say it…” He looked up and, witnessing love and care spilling out of
her usually mischievous eyes, finally smiled. “Is he on the boat?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">She nodded.
“With his family.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“You’re his
family too.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I know…”
unconsciously, she touched her red bells. Chor Lau-heung gave her those bells
as her weapon a decade ago after he realised that the little girl he rescued
from bandits loved bells. Since she was a sweet girl, Chor tai-gor (as she
would call him) then started to call her ‘Sugar’. When he found out that she
was also mischievous, he’d call her ‘Tinker Bell’ every now and then. That was
years ago, before his adopted brother found his eternal love. Before he had a
family of his own. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“He’ll
always be your brother,” the man comforted her. “Even after we…” he stuttered
again. “I hope he approves.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">She nodded.
She knew she had to move on one day. They all had to. She just happened to be
the first one to do so. She cleared her throat. “Let’s do it.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">-xxx-<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Where is
Tim-yi?” Song Siu-ching placed her last lunch dish on the table. Everyone but
the girl in question was already gathering around the table on board the
Fragrant Boat, ready for lunch. Siu-ching had been busying herself with
preparing lunch for the last two hours. Sung Tim-yi used to supervise her, but
since Siu-ching’s culinary skills had been vastly improving, the former usually
just took turns in preparing meals with the Princess. At times, they would
combine forces to produce more meals, but at times Tim-yi would just let
Siu-ching run the show. Today was such a case. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I thought
she was with you?” So Yung-yung stationed her niece A-ying securely on a small
children seat that Chor Lau-heung made for his daughter last year. “Smells
nice, Siu-ching!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Thank
you!” the Princess’ face split in two as she grinned. “I thought I’d just go
full-force with the lunch before we sail again this afternoon.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I thought
we’re to see Wu tai-gor before we sail down south?” Wah Jan-jan started to
distribute rice. Jan-jan almost became Wu Tit-fa’s sister-in-law, hence she
always had a soft spot towards the Drunkard, wondering if he had truly let go
of his star-crossed romance with her Hua-shan sister Koh Ah Lam. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“He’s
supposed to come yesterday –” Chor Lau-heung nodded to acknowledge the bowl of
rice Jan-jan gave him, “– but perhaps he changed his plan. Not uncommon for our
Drunkard.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I do miss
him…” Jan-jan admitted as she served Siu-ching some rice. “I sometimes wonder
if…” she stopped and, true to her private self, she then just shook her head
and smiled.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“You wonder
if Wu tai-gor has moved on?” Siu-ching asked as she heaped some honeyed chicken
onto her husband’s bowl. “I sometimes wonder too…” Siu-ching sighed and shook
her head. She was very vocal in supporting Wu Tit-fa during his break up with
Koh Ah Lam some years ago. Her unexpected support and compassion eventually
broke Tit-fa’s indifference towards the Princess. Whilst he originally just
thought of Siu-ching as a spoiled little princess Chor Lau-heung happened to
fancy, the Drunkard slowly started to appreciate her loyalty and courage, as
well as her tenacity in facing a wandering life with the carefree Chor
Lau-heung. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I
sometimes wonder if Wu tai-gor will ever love another woman,” Li Hung-chao
commented as she helped herself to some freshly sautéed greens. After praising
the freshness of the vegetables, she added, “I sometimes don’t know if he
really has moved on, if he just doesn’t care… or if he just covers it up. Ah. Chor
tai-gor ah –” the in-house physician addressed her brother, who had been just nodding
as the women around him expressed their concerns about Wu Tit-fa. “What do you
think?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Lingering
Fragrance chuckled. “It’s been a while since he broke up with Master Dik Chan…
I tend to think he’s moved on by now.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“You guys
are fickle!” Hung-chao snorted. “If it were us girls, we’re not easy to move
on.” A rhyming ‘yes’ were heard around the table. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Chor
Lau-heung chuckled again. “I don’t mean to say that moving on means caring
less, or stop caring at all. I’m sure Wu Tit-fa still cares about what happens
to Master Dik Chan and Hua-shan – doesn’t he ask you about news from Hua-shan
every now and then, Jan-jan?” Upon a slow nod from the former Hua-shan student,
the Wanderer resumed. “Men can be trapped in the past as well like women… But
while I think it’s quite romantic to always linger in the past… I do think it’s
healthier if we all move on eventually, without forgetting the sweetness of the
past we used to share with that failed romance…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Siu-ching
studied her husband’s face for a while before asking, “So, had I not come here
to the boat, you’d move on?” Her question caught him off-guard, such that he
stuttered for a while. The girls around them giggled, while Siu-ching
studiously waited for Chor Lau-heung’s response. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Siu-ching,
don’t worry!” Yung-yung stopped giggling to offer her solace. “Our Chor
tai-gor, despite being great at hiding his feelings, is not someone who can
move on easily on very important things. He’ll still be merry, but he’ll keep
his past in his heart. He’s not an example of a healthy habit in this case.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Really?”
Siu-ching whispered. Her husband just looked at her and smiled as he scoped
their daughter on his lap. A Ying busily making funny noises as she grabbed his
hair and tugged it several times. When he replied with “I wouldn’t know what
I’d miss…”, Siu-ching smiled again and blushingly diverted her attention to
another matter.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Where is
Tim-yi, by the way?!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Looking
for the real chef, are you?” a merry voice entered the boat dining room before
the owner of said voice. “Can’t do without me?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Huh! You
wish!” Siu-ching grinned to Tim-yi as Lingering Fragrance lifted his eyebrows.
“Oh, Wu tai-gor! We thought you wouldn’t come!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Wu
tai-gor, we have kept a jar of good wine for you,” Realising that Wu Tit-fa
indeed had walked in behind Tim-yi, Jan-jan excitedly rose to fetch the wine.
“Wait, I’ll –”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Jan-jan,
that can wait.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Jan-jan did
a double take to make sure that it was indeed the Drunkard who said that
fetching a jar of wine can wait. “Excuse me?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I…” Wu
Tit-fa shifted his weight from left to right nervously. “Hey, Chor Lau-heung
buddy! Can I talk to you alone?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Oh? What
is it? A national emergency?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Don’t be
silly!” the Drunkard waved his hand. “I’ll spill the bean here if it was about
national emergency!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“What is it
then?” Yung-yung’s curiosity was piqued. “Do you need money to buy wine?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Don’t be
silly!” the Drunkard looked annoyed before he considered Yung-yung’s comment.
“Hey, are you serious?! Do I really have the habit of borrowing money?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Everyone
has a bad habit,” Chor Lau-heung chuckled. “But with the right girl by your
side, you can improve yourself.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Only two
people understood Lingering Fragrance’s comment. One was furiously blushing and
suddenly played with her red bells, the other one was stuttering before
decidedly dragged the King of Thieves to the cabin corner. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Hey, hey,
hey, what the hell do you mean by that?!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I mean…”
easily, Chor Lau-heung extracted himself from Wu Tit-fa’s grab. “With the right
girl by your side, you can improve yourself.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Stop
repeating yourself!” the Drunkard hissed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“You were
asking for me to clarify,” his friend didn’t miss a beat in his reply. He
wouldn’t miss the chance to tease the anti-woman drunkard for the world! He lifted
his fore finger and repeated himself for the third time. “With the right girl
by your side, you can improve yourself.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Shut up!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Wu
tai-gor!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Everyone
turned to see the red-faced Tim-yi getting annoyed. “You promised!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Then it
dawned on them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Tim-yi…”
whispered Hung-chao. “Since when??”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Oh my…”
Yung-yung whispered. “I do have my suspicions, but…” she stopped. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Yeah,
since when??” Siu-ching stopped as well before replying to herself, “Since
A-Ying’s birth??” <b><a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2015/10/baby-delivery-chor-lau-heung-1984_7.html" target="_blank">A-Ying’s birth</a></b> made Wu Tit-fa stayed with them for a good few
weeks. Nothing suspicious happened then; mostly the girls were annoyed by Wu’s
habit of snatching A-Ying from their hands.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Well… kind
of afterwards…” Tim-yi answered in a small voice. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“I wouldn’t
know…” Jan-jan whispered. Wu Tit-fa looked at the former Hua-shan girl and he
became more wrong-footed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Jan-jan…”
he whispered as he walked towards her. “I will always consider your sister as a
special person to me.” He nodded several times for good measure. “It’s just
that… I apparently have moved on…” He looked at the boat wooden floor before
resuming. “It was unplanned… but it happened…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Jan-jan
looked at the posture of one of the most loyal men she’d ever known. She smiled
and nodded. “I’m glad that you have. My sister would approve. I do approve.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Wu Tit-fa looked
up and chuckled in relief. Then, realising that the steward, the brother of his
love, had not said anything else, he turned to face Chor Lau-heung. The Wanderer had a mischievous grin on his happy face.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Do I have
to say that I approve too?” Lau-heung teased.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Chor

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Chuckling,
the Wanderer touched the shoulders of his best friend and his most lively
sister. “Then I give you two my consent, whole-heartedly. I’m very happy for
you. Actually, I have been very happy for you for a while.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“You know
already?!” Wu Tit-fa was surprised. He thought he was stealth enough in his
budding romance with Tim-yi. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">“Of course
I do. I’m a detective, and I’m her brother. Of course I know what happens. Why
do you think I suggested that Siu-ching cooked today instead of Tim-yi?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Amidst the
bursts of happiness around her, Tim-yi stuttered again. “I might leave the
boat…”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Chor
Lau-heung nodded. He knew. “You need to follow him. He’ll take care of you.” He
looked at the sober and solemn Wu Tit-fa who nodded seriously. “I know he will.
Not because he knows I’ll confiscate his wine if he’s not doing that… but
because he loves you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">He embraced
her. “I will miss you too… And you might leave the boat, but you’ll come back
to visit us. Because you always have a home here.” He blinked his misty eyes as
he resumed, “For we are your family.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Earlier this year, I realised that – of Chor
Lau-heung’s three adopted sisters – I love So Yung-yung the most. Not only she
was the most level-headed and wise of the three, she was also played adoringly
by Lui Ching-hung. Sung Tim-yi came second, for I eventually can’t resist the
cuteness and snappiness of Lau Miu-ling, who also played as Li Sai-man’s cousin
in The Foundation 1984. Note that Tim-yi's name means 'Sugar', but she was never called 'Tinker Bell' of course in the series. I just thought of her as Tinker Bell due to her mischievous and cute nature. And the 'e' on the title (Belle) refers to her as a beautiful girl.</span></i><br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span></i>
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">So anyway, I want Yung-yung and Tim-yi to eventually find their own men… but
I think it will be more difficult with Yung-yung, for she really saw Chor
Lau-heung as more than a brother (at least during the first episodes). With
Tim-yi, I find it easier to find her a match, because she really mostly saw CLH
as her brother, and her jealousy towards Siu-ching was mostly because she
wanted CLH’s undivided attention. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">That’s when Wu Tit-fa came to play. Played by the
often-underrated Chan Wing-chun, I find that Wu Tit-fa was a perfect friend for
CLH in this series. I love Wu’s love story with Koh Ah Lam (Sharon Yeung) and I
feel sad that it wasn’t patched up in the end. Then as I kept rewatching CLH
1984, I saw how the snappy repartee between Wu and Tim-yi were actually pretty
enjoyable. Tim-yi liked fooling Wu around, and I say, with the right setting
and as both of them matured, they could be a nice cute couple together.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Having said that, I purposely also include the
topic of moving on here. It is indeed romantic to cling on to failed romance (or
potential romance) in the past… <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>but it
actually is possible to move on, but still smiling sweetly to the memories of
the past. And actually, when we can turn back to a time and smile at it,
understanding that it has fulfilled that chapter of our lives, I fancy that it
indeed is a good sign that we have healthily moved on…<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">To me, Michael Miu has healthily moved on from
the tragedy surrounding Barbara’s death. She will always be a dear part of his
past. These days, in some interviews he smiled more instead of being sad about
her passing. He reminisced good memories he shared with her. Those memories
stay in the past, and it’s okay. People move on. Michael is happy with his life
now. Rob Radboud is also happy with his current life. They truly move on, yet
they will always cherish their memories with Barbara. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

朋友們,我和Rob Radboud需要你們的幫助。正如我前一篇文章中提到,Barbara(翁美玲)劍橋的家人將會更換掉之前的白色墓碑,添加她母親的名字上去。我和Rob一致認為之前白色的墓碑值得保留,而不是被丟棄......對我們而言,最好的去處就是Barbara在香港紀念堂。<br />
<br />
然而,我們需要香港有人幫助我們,但還未找到。搬運墓碑將是件乏味的工作,涉及許可證和一筆不菲的費用。但我相信有志者事竟成。<br />
<br />
如果您願意幫忙出一份力,請發郵件給我。我們急切尋求居住在香港、或經常往返於香港的朋友。這件事情必須在兩個月內進行,最晚到8月中旬,否則舊的石碑就可能被丟棄。<br />
<br />
多謝<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I spent the first afternoon in Cambridge, a fine Thursday afternoon, visiting the CCAT (Cambridgeshire College of Arts and Technology – now the Anglia Ruskin University), about 10 min walk from the city center. CCAT was Barbara's and Rob's pre-university school back in the late 1970s. Rob showed me the place where he first talked to Barbara; a CCAT canteen that has now become a computer lab. He'd notice her already, the quiet Chinese student, always sitting by herself with a black note book, writing. But it was one day in that CCAT canteen that he first talked to her. He approached her and asked what she was writing. She looked up and, with a very bright smile, showed him what she'd been writing, in Chinese. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Rob also took me to the painting room where Barbara would sit and paint objects with her classmates. In fact, it was the first room Rob showed me. I tried to picture Barbara, the shy girl, sitting and copying the objects her teachers told her to draw. I couldn't imagine the shy girl, actually, for the Barbara I knew was a chatty, laughing girl who shared her laughters with Michael... But I do believe it when Rob said that Barbara was shy in the UK. I believe she had the shy part of her, which was more dominant in the UK where she was a foreigner. I also believe her cheerful part was not a made-up façade; it was also real at times.</span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> </span></div>

<o:p><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Then Rob showed the large sports hall where he and Barbara used to play badminton. She used to give art performances there too, and she enjoyed being in the spotlight. So there we have it again: Barbara the shy girl, who became lively and bursting with energy on stage. I think arts and acting made Barbara channel her lively self, the part which was usually dormant when she was not on stage.</span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> </span></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Then Rob and I walked to his apartment where he shared his life with Barbara. The building that contained their unit was, still is, Bridgacre, somewhere 10 min walking south of CCAT. Rob’s parents bought the unit for Rob when his father’s work in Cambridge was over. Rob’s parents returned to the Netherlands while Rob stayed in Cambridge to accompany Barbara. Barbara never stayed in Bridgacre, but she spent a lot of time there. In between classes. After class. Before class. During weekends. She'd create stories to tell her family so that they were not suspicious of her and Rob; her mother was, after all, not fond of the idea of Barbara dating a foreigner.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Oh yes, there were many things that I didn’t realise happened to Barbara. Some of them I missed from Rob’s articles.

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: georgia, times new roman, serif;"><i>Did she have an accent when speaking English? </i>Her accent was a London accent. Definitely British accent.<i> (Icha: How interesting...)</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: georgia, times new roman, serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>Did she like discussing politics?</i> No, Barbara never showed interest in politics.

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>Did she like cooking? </i>She was a good cook, but she didn't like doing it. She learned cooking from her 2<sup>nd</sup> step father, who owned the fish and chip shop. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>Did she like eating? </i>(Rob laughed) She loved food! If she was still alive, she’d be a chubby woman by now, for she loved eating so much!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>What was her favourite colour?</i> (Rob thought about it for a while. Eventually we concluded that…) She wore a lot of pinks<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The next morning (Friday 23 June), Rob and I met again at Barbara's grave at the Cambridge City Cemetery (<b><a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2017/06/visiting-barbaras-grave-with-rob-radboud.html" target="_blank">click here to read the post</a></b>). Oh, you can actually ride bus 3 as well from city center. It will take you to the back fences of the cemetery, very close to Barbara's grave actually. But the bus that takes you right to the cemetery gates are Bus 11 or 12.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">After visiting the grave, we went to Histon to see the house that her mother bought after Barbara moved to HK, as well as the fish'n chip shop that used to belong to Barbara's family. The Histon house belonged to another family now, but it is let to yet another man who kindly let us in to take photos of the garden. Rob will make some posts of the visit to this house later, so I'll let him do the past and present comparisons. Suffice to say, Barbara indeed lived there. She indeed visited the house with Kent Tong in June 1984 (that was right before she filmed Chor Lau Heung with Michael Miu). The inside of the house was already renovated, but the garden was still recognisable.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The new owner, George, knew that Barbara used to live above the shop. He was very nice, George, he treated us to some fizzy drinks. Rob and I also bought lunch there.

Rob also told me about Andrew's plan to replace the tombstone, because they will bury Barbara's mother's ashes at the same little patch where Barbara's ashes are. The tombstone would then need to be replaced with a new one, bearing both their names. The news came as a surprise for me, though it shouldn't be. I mean, we know that the ashes of Barbara’s mother would be buried in the same patch with Barbara’s. I was actually quite surprised when Rob and I went to visit Barbara and we didn’t see any indication of Barbara’s mother there.

It would be the last time I see the tombstone again, unless we can relocate the stone to HK (or China – <b><a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.nl/2017/06/relocating-barbaras-old-tombstone.html" target="_blank">click this</a></b> to read our appeal for the stone).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">After visiting the Cambridge City Cemetery, Rob and I took a bus to Rob’s old house in Trumpington, in the outskirt of Cambridge. This was the house where Barbara felt happy, for here she met a united, peaceful, functional family she longed to be a part of. The current owner, a kind elderly lady, let us in. Rob showed me the trees and backyard where Barbara sat down in smiles. It was a surreal feeling to step on a backyard where Barbara had been, more than 30 years ago…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Rob and I said goodbye at the National Express bus stop, where I would resume my journey to London. It had been another memorable trip in Cambridge, more so because I have a first-witness account this time.</span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Rob told me so many things about Barbara, and I shared with him what I thought happened to Barbara in her last year in HK. I still think Barbara suffered from depression, though from Rob’s reading, the depression might be “too mild” to be called depression. I obviously need to do more readings on that matter… However, we both agree on something: Barbara actually needed help… and that night, that fateful night of 13 May 1985, she didn’t get the help she needed…</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">However, I'm glad to report that we didn't only share sad stories. Rob shared some happy memories of him and Barbara, which invited my laughters. Rob also shared a particularly funny story about Barbara's time during the <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.nl/2015/10/fearless-duo-1984-summary-of-eps-15-20_14.html" target="_blank">Fearless Duo shooting</a>. This story came from Andrew, Babs' godson. There was a scene, if you remember, during the FD story, where Barbara's Chor-yin died, and Michael's Szeto Man-mo and Lau Dan's Supreme Master tried to return her to her body. After Man-mo sold his soul to the dark side, there in the Lam family hall (Ep 19), he and Supreme Master did some hocus-pocus that would return Chor-yin to life once more. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Guys, Rob Radboud and I need your help. As you may have read from <b><a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.nl/2017/06/visiting-barbaras-grave-with-rob-radboud.html" target="_blank">the previous post</a></b>, Barbara's family in Cambridge will replace her old white tombstone with a new one, where her mother's name will be scribed on as well. Rob and I think that the tombstone should be preserved instead of being thrown away... and the best place for us is Hong Kong, where Barbara's memorial tablet is located.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">However, we have not found a person who can help us from the Hong Kong end. It will be a tedious task, involving surely permits and money, because transporting the tablet won't come as cheap. But as long as there is a will, surely there is a way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Thus, please <a href="mailto: southernriver74@gmail.com" style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: purple;"><i>email me</i></span></a> if you'd like to help with this endeavour. We definitely need someone who lives in HK, or at least frequently visit HK. The plan has to move forward in two months, say by mid August, otherwise the old stone will not have a place to go (i.e. will be abandoned). Considering the historical value of the stone, I highly recommend we try to raise fund and work on the bueraucracy to move the stone to HK somehow. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The secretary of the HK fans club that Rob contacted said that the stone relocation might be more feasible to be relocated in China, because the fans club there was planning to make a Barbara museum in China. But Rob and I still think HK is the better place, for it was Barbara's birth place and she lived a significant portion of her life there. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Having said that, having never been to HK, let alone visiting Barbara's memorial tablet there, I don't know the situation there, or how much would it cost to maintain the stone there alongside the tablet. But I'm all ears. </span><br />

Last year in July 2016, when I first visited <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2016/08/visiting-barbaras-grave.html" target="_blank">Barbara's grave</a>, I wondered if I would come back there soon, if not at all. This year,
I've been very lucky though, for I could come back there again. Double luck,
because my visit to Cambridge coincided with the visit of none other than Rob
Radboud, Barbara's former Dutch boyfriend (Thank you, Universe!).</div>

Hannah introduced Rob and me through Facebook. Hannah was
originally going to go to the UK as well. It would have been a wonderful thing
to meet her for the first time in the UK, in Cambridge of all places. But, it
was not meant to be, for Hannah had a personal thing to do with her family in
the US. So it was that one cool Thursday summer (22 June) that my bus arrived
in Cambridge and I met Rob for the first time. After some pleasantries, he
directly took me to the CCAT (Cambridge College Art and Technology), now Anglia
Ruskin University, and then to his old apartment where he spent a wonderful
year with Barbara. The next day, we met again at Barbara's grave. This post is
about the visit to Barbara's grave. I will write another post about other
Barbara-related places I visited with Rob in Cambridge. (edit: <b><a href="https://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com.au/2017/07/barbara-yungs-life-in-cambridge.html" target="_blank">click here</a></b> to read that post)<o:p></o:p></div>

The rain poured down when I visited Barbara's resting place
for the first time in 2016. This time though (Friday 23 June 2017), it was a
dry sunny morning, although the wind later picked up. The grave wasn't as unkempt
as when I first came in 2016. Some dried chrysanthemums were the evidence of a
visit as early as a fortnight prior, but <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">no
plastic wraps to be seen around</b>. Good. The grave looked dry, but that was
the general weather of England and Europe anyway these days. There was a change
though: two new graves behind Barbara's grave, which weren't there last year.<o:p></o:p><br />

Rob and I immediately set to work. We cut the grasses with
the scissors that I borrowed from my AirBnB landlord. We threw away the dried
flowers. We washed the white grave stone; Rob rearranged the gifts and mementos
after the stone block was washed. I watered the dry soil with a white round vas
I found on her grave (the taller vas I saw last year was nowhere to be found).
Then I arranged the red roses and white freesias (I bought them from a Tesco
shop the previous night) in the two vases available. For technicalities, the
two vases are the white round vas and the 'sunken' vas with holes on the lid.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After we cleaned the grave, I lit three small aromatic candles for Barbara. Her old candle holder was still there, but it now had a hole. I had to position the candle holder such that the hole was hidden from the wind to prevent the candle from dying out. There were two new candle holders, though, one with a panda (Rob said the panda liked the candle heat ^_^). I feel that the grave was better with three candles lit, for more candles gave more energy to the grave.<br />
<br />
Then we sat at the front of the grave and talked about
Barbara. Rob and I had been talking about her since I met Rob, but there were
so much to learn about her that we always had something new to talk about.
Afterwards, we went to Histon, a village 20 min from the city center, where
Barbara and her mother used to live, and where they had a fish'n chip shop. We
found the house where Barbara's family used to live until 2002 ish. We had
lunch in the shop which is now operated by a kind George from Hong Kong. Then
Rob had a meeting with Andrew, Barbara’s godson, while I went to the
Fitzwilliam Museum. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On my return, I passed by the city market where I bought the
flowers for Barbara last year. There was something about Barbara’s grave this
year that didn’t sit well with me, and I didn’t realise it until I left the
grave. The grave was dry. The newly dug graves behind her grave were not yet
covered with flowers and greeneries, hence it added to the dryness of the grave
in general. In 2016, some peonies grew on Barbara’s grave, their leaves added enough
green to the grave to make it lush. And it also rained when I visited the place
last year, so I felt like really surrounded by a lush, peaceful environment. Of
course Barbara’s grave was still peaceful when I went there last week Friday 23
June. But the lack of green leaves left the grave wanting for freshness. So, I
bought some begonias for the grave ground and yellow roses for the vas.<o:p></o:p><br />

I went back to the grave immediately. It was drizzling, so
it felt like back in 2016. I dug some shallow holes for the begonias and
arranged the yellow roses in the two vases. I also watered the ground again,
and played some mid 1980s Hong Kong wuxia songs, including Chor Lau Heung 1984,
LOCH 1983 and (of course) Fearless Duo. The three small candles were all burned out, but since I still had one candle with me, I lit the last candle in the white candle holder. I spent some time chanting and playing the Heart Sutra and some mantras as well before returning to the city for a dinner with Rob.<br />
<br />
I also inspected the chibi white and blue Chinese talisman that IMO looked like Michael's troupe uniform in FD. It was very cute indeed, hooked safely on a chain. I also moved the dog (well, the stone dog) to the front of the black candle holder; the poor dog was previously hidden behind the candle holder. I thought Barbara would like to have the dog clearly visible. Oh, and Barbara has a unicorn now, one with purple mane!<br />

Rob and I met again the next day
(Saturday 24 June) at Barbara’s grave. I was going to head back to London while
Rob had a reunion with his Cambridge friends. I decided to go back to Barbara’s
grave mainly because Rob informed me that Andrew and his family had decided to
replace Barbara’s tombstone with a new one to contain both Barbara’s and her
mother’s name. I thought, I had to see the white tombstone again before it is
dismantled later this year with a new black one (with gold writing). I
suggested that the white 32 years old tombstone be transported to Hong Kong so
that Barbara’s fans can have the old tombstone adorning her memorial tablet
there. Rob liked the idea, so he conveyed it to Andrew. About an hour ago, I
received message that Andrew agreed to the idea, so we need to contact Hong
Kong fans, raise some money, and arrange for the tombstone to be transported
back to Hong Kong. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-outline-level: 1;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-outline-level: 1;">
Rob also sent me a message that
someone had been to the grave before Monday (26 June), for he went back to the
grave to say goodbye to Barbara yesterday (Monday). The fan had cleared up the
dried flowers and arranged some new red roses there. I see that the begonias
are still there on the grave, so that’s good. The fan(s) also left a card for
Barbara… thank you, unidentified fan…Also thank you for cleaning the dried
flowers and not leaving plastic flower wraps at her grave…<o:p></o:p></div>

Rob and I have agreed to
collaborate in the mission to transport Barbara’s tombstone to HK. He will
liaise with Barbara’s family (Andrew and Sheila, mostly) while I will liaise
with the HK fan club. Rob has the contact with HK, he’ll connect me with them.
Once it happens, I will let you all know what you do to help. Mostly, we will
need $$$ to transport the tombstone and also some publicity so that $$$ needed
is raised.<o:p></o:p></div>

I need to board the plane back
to Amsterdam soon. But what I’d like to say is that… the second time I visited
Barbara, I still felt the peace that I felt during the first visit. I feel much
less sad about her passing though, I guess I am closer to my closure. Meeting
Rob and learning about Barbara’s year in the UK certainly helped understanding
her better. <o:p></o:p></div>

I hope to continue this post
with another post about my trip to Barbara- and Rob-related places in Cambridge.
I hope I can do that by this weekend. <o:p></o:p></div>

Until then, stay blissful and
happy. <o:p></o:p><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Tomorrow, well, in less than two hours in Hong Kong, will be Michael Miu's birthday. He will be 59 years old tomorrow... may he always be healthy, happy and prosperous (that goes also for his family). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I am on another (very important) deadline next week, hence I'm not sure if I can dedicate time to make something for Michael tomorrow. But just in case, just in case I cannot, at least I want to give him an early happy birthday... and a gratitude for coming into my life so early in my childhood... and reappear again recently as Chor Lau-heung, Li Sai-man, Szeto Man-mo, Tung Pang-fei, and yes, even as Yeung Hong (Michael still gives the best Yang Kang/Yeung Hong to date, IMO). And most certainly, most recently, as Huang Yaoshi, the Peach Blossom Island Master.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In this post, I insert four paintings that have been painted by at least two painters for Michael. The first one up here is an oil painting of Huang Yaoshi (LOCH 2017) by Chen Zhifeng (陳志峰), as acknowledged by Michael in his Weibo dated 6 June 2017. <a href="https://m.sohu.com/n/461826242/?_once_=000201_Click_Flow_related_4&wscrid=95360_4" target="_blank">This</a> might be the info page of Chen Zhifeng. I know not the identity of the painter of the three paintings after the break. Let me know if you do know. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I love these paintings, they capture the beauty of the almost-60 Michael Miu. Sometimes, I cannot believe how graceful he has grown up, has matured. Michael, like wine, actually looks better with age...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Thanks again, Michael... and happy birthday. If I cannot make anything for tomorrow, at least I want to say this today: I love you, and I thank you for your presence in my life...</span><br />

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The waning moon was high in the sky when several coastal birds
suddenly flew past the floating boat. Chor Lau-heung absent-mindedly watched
the birds flew past, wondering how similar he was, just recently, to the birds.
Just recently, before he met her. Song Siu-ching, the girl who turned his world
upside down.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He remembered their argument, or rather, her objection to his
"indifferent" attitude to her love. Then, after he <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2015/12/lady-playing-zither-chor-lau-heung-1984_10.html" target="_blank">made peace with her</a>, she consoled him about his <a href="http://riverandlakerealm.blogspot.com/2016/10/a-capital-mistake-chor-lau-heung-1984.html" target="_blank">mistakes</a>. And just over an hour ago, he managed
to persuade her to sleep in So Yung-yung's cabin, because the extra cabin
wasn't ready yet. Her tiredness was the only thing that made her obliging to
his suggestion; she yawned as she said good night. She asked if he was going to
sleep soon; he said yes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Yet, he couldn’t sleep. Too many things in his mind that just
prevented him from sleeping that night. He did try to sleep in his cabin, but
after an hour of tossing and turning, he gave up and returned to the deck.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A noise was heard from the girl's cabin. Wasn't an alarming
noise, one that didn't warrant his worries. Yet, he left the deck anyway and
went to the upper deck, to the inner cabins. Just outside Siu-ching's (well, So
Yung-yung's) cabin, he stopped. He just realised that, although he had entered
Siu-ching's rooms beforehand, it was always when others were around, and he
always knocked. This time, they were alone. Also, if he knocked, she'd wake up,
and she - like him - needed her sleep. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He was about to abort his plan and returned to the deck when he
heard the noise again. Some rustles, some whispers. She must be talking in her
sleep.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Not his business, then. He turned and walked away, just as the
girl inside screamed.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Alarmed, Lingering Fragrance opened the cabin door and leapt
inside. He saw the Princess sitting straight, yet she didn't seem to see him.
She screamed "Chor tai-gor, don't go!", yet when Lau-heung walked
towards her bed to calm her, she already closed her eyes again and slammed
herself back to the bed. With eyes completely closed, tossing and turning, she
begged him not to go, because Zo Hing-hau was a formidable enemy.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Chor Lau-heung sat on her bed and held her sweaty hands. He'd
wake her up, but it was better than a nightmare. "Siu-ching -" he
said gently, "I'm here. I'm not going anywhere..." he squeezed her
sweaty palms as he tried to calm her. His voice and his touch woke her up.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Chor tai-gor..." she opened her eyes and whispered
his name, in the way he loved the most. Then she suddenly sprung from bed,
sitting straight and hugging Lingering Fragrance. "You're still
here!"<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"I'm here... I promised to keep you safe, hence I'm
here..."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Zo Hing-hau... he – I thought..."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"It was a dream..." he reassured her. Then, watching
her trembling in front of him, his left hand developed its own life as it
reached out to touch her cheek. The Princess closed her eyes as she felt his
familiar touch. Soon, she calmed down. Her right hand reached for Chor
Lau-heung's and squeezed it back. Suddenly, a sigh escaped her cherry red lips.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The sigh roused Lingering Fragrance's desire such that he
jolted. Yet, he couldn't extract his hand from Siu-ching's cheek. Instead, his
right hand followed suit and caressed the girl's hair, bringing her pretty head
towards his lips. He closed his eyes and touched her forehead with his
trembling lips; she sighed again. His right hand moved past the braids of her
hair, down to her hair-covered neck. He set aside her ample hair and, clamping
her smooth neck, bringing her closer to him. She moaned as he bent to kiss her.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Her moan brought back his common sense. Opening his eyes to see
her lips an inch from his, he let her go with an audible gasp.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"I..." He stuttered. "I..." <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">She opened her eyes too, they were glassy with desire.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Princess...I'm terribly sorry..." shame-faced, Chor
Lau-heung distance himself from her. "I took advantage of you, I'm -
" he exhaled. "My sincere apologies..."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Yet, she leaned back to him. Too close. "Chor
tai-gor..." his impaired nose caught the sweet scent of her sweat. "-
I don't see you taking advantage of me..."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Princess..." Lau-heung didn't trust himself anymore.
"I shouldn't be here." Hastily, he rose from the bed. "I bid you
good night."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Don't you want me?"<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He blinked. Did she just ask him that question?! It took him a
while before he replied, "I don't see how we can be together."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"That was not my question," Princess Wing Ching
reached for his hand. He should have stood further away. "I asked if you
do not want me."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He swallowed. He could see her eyes glassy with passion, her wet
and inviting lips glistening in the moonlight. "You're beyond my
reach."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Unexpectedly, she chuckled. "I can definitely assure you
that I'm within your reach."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

"What if I'm just a normal girl... would you still restrain
yourself?" <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

from him. He should have just left the cabin. </span></span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: inherit; font-size: 11pt;">"Just for one night... please pretend I'm just a normal

<span style="color: #353535; font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The magma within him erupted. Slowly, yet dangerously, he looked
back at her. He couldn't hear the night birds singing outside, nor the crashing
waves. He could only hear her heavy breathing mingling with his.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
