Mini-Special on Tang Qi’s Ancient Novels – Part 10

by

I am doing something different this week. I won’t be focusing on any character but I will be featuring all of Tang Qi’s ancient novels. For those who did not read Hua Xu Yin, don’t worry as you can still understand the special. All you need to know is the protagonists in Hua Xu Yin are Su Yu (also known as Mu Yan) and Ye Zhen (also known as A Fu). They are a sweet & loving pair with an adorable pet tiger called xiao huang who loves to eat roast chicken. All the sub-plots in Hua Xu Yin can be considered sad tragedies:(  Nonetheless there is also some dry humour in that book which is Tang Qi’s trademark:)

I need to reiterate most of these specials are originally written by Tang Qi’s many talented fans in baidu. I only search, read, understand, compile, sort, translate, edit and modify with my ‘poetic license’:P

One

Ye Hua: “Qian Qian, are you reading a novel?”

Bai Qian: “Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms is written about both of us.”

Ye Hua: “Oh?”

Bai Qian: “This mortal called Tang Qi has very good writing skill. I think we can let her help Si Ming write the book of fate. But …..”

Ye Hua: “What is it?”

Bai Qian (first flip through a few parts in the West Sea, then turn to page 224 until page 228): “I feel that these few pages should be deleted. Isn’t that mortal Tang Qi know too much?”

Ye Hua (frowning): “She does really know a lot.”

Bai Qian: “But…… since she wrote us so beautifully, I will forgive her.”

Ye Hua: “Are you saying those scenes are very beautiful?”

Bai Qian: “…”

Ye Hua (pick up Bai Qian by the waist and quickly walk into the bedroom): “Since you have such a longing for those beautiful scenes, I will let you enjoy those good times as soon as possible …”

(I don’t know what is on page 224 to 228 but I guess they are the bedroom scenes, heehee…..)

Two

Little dough: “Why Hua Xu Yin and The Pillow Book, both also have two books but Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms only has one book?”

Qian Qian: “Your mummy is much easier to pursue so only took one book time to capture your mummy’s heart.”

Ye Hua: “Many things are summarised with the stroke of a pen.”

Zhe Yan: “Zhen Zhen and my relations.h.i.+p is not developed or explained!”

Yuan Zhen: “Xiao Guai Guai and my ending is also not resolved!”

Cheng Yu (interrupt!): “The main reason is your mummy got pregnant again. So, Gong Zi cannot tortoure all of you lah..”

Three

Ye Hua: “Qian Qian, are you reading novel again?”

Bai Qian (very engross in reading Hua Xu Yin in her hand ): “Ye Hua, I am very envious of Su Yu and Ye Zhen.”

Ye Hua: “Oh, why? Is it because they are a sweeter pair than us?”

Bai Qian (shake her head): “It is not because they are sweeter than us.”

Ye Hua: “Hmm?”

Bai Qian: “It is because they have a South China tiger pet but we do not.”

Ye Hua: “……”

(But you have little dough who is even cuter:)

Four

Feng Jiu: “Dijun, why don’t you read the Buddhist scriptures recently?”

Dong Hua (give the book in his hand to Feng Jiu): “A mortal named Tang Qi wrote a book called Three Lives Three Worlds The Pillow Book. It is written about both of us and I am relatively satisfied with my image.”

Feng Jiu (panic): “What about my image leh?”

Dong Hua (subtle smile).

Feng Jiu: “Come on, what about my image?”

Dong Hua: “I do not pay much attention to your image. I am just very surprised when all of a sudden, I heard Xiang Li Meng likes you.”

Feng Jiu: “You also can feel surprised meh?”

Dong Hua: “In fact, I am even more surprised that you do not like to eat the sweet and sour fish I cooked.”

Feng Jiu (relief smile): “Finally you…”

Dong Hua (interrupt): “But the content of the book cannot be trusted especially when you read it online.”

Five

Feng Jiu (puzzled): “Dijun, What is fetis.h.i.+sm?”

Dong Hua: “. . . Probably refers to a person who likes small animals.”

Feng Jiu (understood): “Oh, then I also want to know, what is meant by cut sleeve ah?”

Dong Hua: “. . . Probably refers to a man who likes another man.”

Feng Jiu (surprised): “Oh! You really like Lord Lian Song ar!?”

Dong Hua (rub his forehead): “What do you think? Where did you hear all these rubbis.h.!.+?”

Feng Jiu (being honest): “Dijun, I read all these from the blog of a book called Three Lives Three Worlds The Pillow Book!”

Dong Hua (calmly pick up the Cang’he Jian sword): “These group of mortals do not want to live, I am going to deal with them.”
