A new scholar in Xian.

Everything starts in the fourth day of April, when a scholar arrives in Xian city and starts sharing his tales through that place. New legends are passed down to the crowds and one of them catches young master Song's attention.

"According to ancient records, when the moon starts to set, follow the direction of Pole Star, you will see Long Guo."

The Song's residence....

"Long Guo? What's this place? Hey, Fei Yi, where did the new books come from? (Song Jia)

"Which ones young master Song?"

(attendant Fei Yi)

"These ones, the ones with the red mark! (Song Jia)

"...these? I just bought them from a scholar yesterday morning. Are they interesting? You see....,there's a new scholar in our city and everyone praises his talent, so I thought you might be interested in it! (attendant Fei Yi)

"Oh...I see!!! Thank you Fei Yi! One of them is very fascinating. Quite amazing! (a short pause)

.....walking through the library from right to left....

Of all the servants of the Song house, you know me best! (Song Jia)"

"Thank you for your praise young master! As your personal attendant, I will always try to serve you as best as possible. (Fei Yi)"

"Actually...(pause)...

I want to meet this person. I have so many questions for him. (Song Jia)"

"I can ask for an appointment in one of these days. He stays in Grand Blossom Pavilion right now! I don't think that it will be too difficult to meet this grand scholar. You're the Xian magistrate's third child, the heir of the Song family.

He can't refuse to meet you! (pause)...

I have heard that he's an introverted person.(Fei Yi)"

"Are you serious?! How can someone who loves to tell stories be a reserved individual? (Song Jia)"

"I don't know, don't ask me that! But....no matter what will happen, I will try my best to get an appointment with him. (Fei Yi)"

"Well..., don't insist too much if he doesn't agree! I don't want to be a nuisance. The people may believe that the young master of the Song family is a hindrance to others! (Song Jia)"

"Yes master Song! (Fei Yi)"

Later, in the same day, Fei Yi sends a letter to Grand Blossom Pavilion, asking for a meeting with the new scholar, in the name of the young master of the Songs. Several days are passing and no answer is coming back. The young master becomes more and more anxious but he doesn't want to force the things too much. The next week, his attendant Fei Yi sends a new letter but this time too no reply is coming back.

"Young master Song, there's no reply again!!!What's going on? Should I give up?" (Fei Yi)

"Yes. Stop sending letters to that place." (Song Jia)

"Are you giving up young master?" (Fei Yi)

"I said "stop sending letters" because I will go there in person! I will visit the Grand Blossom Pavilion tomorrow morning!" (Song Jia)

"Oh...I see! That's more like you, young master! I am going to prepare for tomorrow's trip now." (Fei Yi)

"Stop right there! There's no need! I will go alone this time." (Song Jia)

"Alone? But master, what if something bad will happen to you? You know that your father won't spare me in that case! You always put me in difficult situations. Think about my life too!" (Fei Yi)

"Fei Yi, Fei Yi! How can something bad happen to me? You know that I am a martial arts practitioner, don't you? You saw me practice everyday! Nothing will happen to me, I promise!" (Song Jia)

"Young master.....(crying out loud)" (Fei Yi)

"Do you want us to offend the scholar? You said that he is a shy person! Just stay home and wait for me to come back with the good news." (Song Jia)

"Right, right! Can I disobey you? Oh...no, I can't because you're my master! Fine. Don't come back to me crying if someone bullies you." (Fei Yi)

"I won't!" (bleh) (Song Jia)
