Ghost in the past (Edited 01.27.2021)
The fighting continues, and Yuwen Yue’s cold eyes follows the black ninja’s moves.
The black ninja is full of arrogance, and the crowd loves it. Like he already won even if the contender did not really wina at all. After a few breaking and banging of the contender, he looks and finds the big muscled man sleeping like a baby in the circle of fight.
They dragged his body outside and threw him out of place.
The first fight is over, but the host of the game announces another call which signals the final event is about to begin.
He opened the stage to drop their support. A lot of money is flying down to the ground.
Back in the room, the black ninja looks like nothing has happened.
No wounds or any broken bones.
Suddenly, a short man came into the room. He threw a few monies on the floor and ask him to come back for the final match.
Because of Yuwen Yue’s attractive personality, another man pushed him into the circle of fight where he became an instant fighter and contender.
He does not have any idea who he will fight yet.
He locked his brows when he thought about the black mask ninja earlier and the crowd shouts out his name. Yuwen Yue knew the black mask ninja will join in the next fight.
Unexpected situation Yuwen Yue was forced to fit in, fate let him face it today.
If the seventh Yue will not recognize him, he will have to defend himself but will not hurt his closest former bodyguard.
Yuwen Yue is somewhat looking torn, his head looking down while the black mask ninja came out to fight him full of arrogance.
An inexplicable attitude of revenge the master of disguise also felt around him, Yuwen Yue started to draw his inner strength to counter it.
Inside the middle of the circle of fight with few dim lights, Yuwen Yue casts the perfect stature of his shadow, looked down, closed eyes, and not moving.
The black ninja sensed his contender is not all like other fighters he met in the past.
He became wary, narrowing his eyes, and did not allow curiosity to break its goal.
No one wants to start the first move, but the youngster gets irritated with Yuwen Yue’s very calm stature.
Swoosh..
The black ninja began to test the calm water, and the ripples did not fight back.
Yuwen Yue avoided the first strike that landed on his left shoulder.
And just like that, the crowd went crazy then silence followed everyone in awe.
After the first attack, the bets started to shuffle.
More money is thrown on the ground and the crowd went twice as crazier than the first match. The two fighters took eye contact. Yuwen Yue’s tracing his former bodyguard whom he lost in the icy lake.
It is like piercing his heart because the wounds were still there though it wasn’t knocked.
The black ninja sensed the contender is protecting the left shoulder where he first attacked, yet Yuwen Yue fend it off.
Yuwen Yue knows that this young boy is looking at his left shoulder and he must not get defensive or else, the black ninja will attack the still fresh wound.
Yuwen Yue must change his calmness to an offensive one, so he did.
For the first time after the frozen lake, Yuwen Yue used his Gongfu martial arts but did not show much effort.
The black mask ninja was caught in complete surprise when suddenly his nose is bleeding. He raised his brow and did not believe this is happening now. He thinks little blood might end up his career and lose this fight as immature as it seems.
Hoping something happens to cut the fight and won’t have to fight longer, because, like water trapped in a dam, it is hard to stop.
This crowd might not be able to contain it.
Yuwen Yue shifted his course when suddenly an attack was made again from the black ninja.
Yuwen Yue controlled the fight from attack to counter-attack and putting himself in the gray area of this moment was like breaking his rules back to not breaking them.
Almost in a blink of an eye, those movements made the black ninja scratch his head.
The crowd cried louder, burst out in laughter, cast more bets, and shifted their bets back and forth.
As funny as it seems, Yuwen Yue remains formal, calm like water, but not putting off into his mind his seventh Yue. ”
How come, why is it like this, the black mask ninja does not recognize him at all,” Yuwen Yue observed in a distance and thinks otherwise.
While the black mask ninja had never been into this kind of fight, he’s being laughed out loud by the crowd, and the ego is somewhat hurt and becomes angry. Not so long, he touched Yuwen Yue’s arms without knowing why the contender allowed him to reach his body at a close distance.
Yuwen Yue took off the black mask, and his face was exposed to the crowd.
A moment paused, and all jaws dropped to the ground, the busy, noisy crowd became quiet.
Yuwen Yue thought for a while he is still young, but really, he had the resemblance of Yue Qi all over his face.
Yuwen Yue is somewhat surprised he came face to face, eye to eye with him. Yet, the black ninja put back his mask and jumped sideways from the wooden post. He reached as high as the balcony and then went out of the window.
Yuwen Yue left in the circle of fight, the crowd throws more money in the air and started to hail their new champion.
Yuwen Yue did not mind, although he really needs the money to support his living, he just wanted only to get the service payment for his delivery and forget about today.
Yuwen Yue in deep thoughts and having that face exposed knew it was Yue Qi. He broke the fight with him, he is safe to think Yue Qi might have recognized him and would the black ninja get back to him sooner or later but how?
The lodge-keeper was very happy, he profited from this final game fight more than he earned for a year.
Yuwen Yue was thrown out of the place like a useless fellow after the fight match was finished. Then again, a man of small stature threw him some of his hard-earned money coming from the fight. Yuwen Yue does not have any other choice but to pick them one by one from the ground.
It is not much, but it can buy him food for weeks.
Apparently, he was only a winner by default. But the fight in a draw result, when the crowd’s favorite suddenly disappeared after its mask was taken off.
It was never Yuwen Yue’s intention to expose him.
However, he needed an action that would end the fight so as not to exhaust himself.
Because too much publicity might put him to danger.
Yuwen Yue thinks it is necessary to divert the battle to this black ninja crowd’s favorite thought: “Who is behind the mask?”
So as he wished, he took it off.
The fight became a child’s play, and the crowd watched it to their amusement.
Even after the fight, when Yuwen Yue is walking down the street, he heard gossip that spread like fire.
Some of them asked the name of the contender.
Yuwen Yue walked fast, or he might be spotted and may attract more attention than he can handle.
Putting on his hood, Yuwen Yue walked tall like that Gregorian chant people.
Yuwen Yue is very tired by the time he arrived at his room. Keeping the money he earned from the fight, he plans to buy a weapon for this journey of nowhere. Maybe all roads will lead to Xinger.
Yuwen Yue can live well and be at peace whenever he thinks about Xinger. He kept her alive in his thoughts and in his heart.
A familiar bird inside the rusty cage talked like a real person, and said to the master: “Xinger, Xinger…”
And then was cut off when Yuwen Yue’s brows wrinkled, the bird stopped the noise.
Yes, it is the Yuwen parrot.
Flashback to the time Yuwen Yue was in the forest hunting for food, he saw some hunters as well who took down a deer. He is hungry, almost five out of his seven spears were spent, and nothing for him to eat.
Looking at the fresh wound on his left arm, he is unable to properly hunt for a decent meal.
A young boy wearing thick leather fur boots and his father were camping near and Yuwen Yue is shooting to hunt, Yuwen Yue watched them close in the distance. He almost lost consciousness due to starvation.
But thankfully the father and son came to help him. The father and son are natives of the East. Yuwen Yue silently let them take his body and went with them speaking nothing about his past. The father and son helped Yuwen Yue heal the left shoulder wound. Yuwen Yue cannot talk and bedridden for weeks feeding him for many days.
Until one day he got up and walked into the market. While walking, he passed by a bird cager vendor and saw they sell all kinds of birds. He was particularly drawn to that one sound he heard when a bird tweeted the name: “Xinger” three times.
Yuwen Yue was struck and came back to find where is the noise coming from. Yuwen Yue discovered the Yuwen parrot.
Happy seeing the bird, Yuwen Yue almost forgot about the reseller, and they pushed him aside because he does not have money to buy the bird.
Yuwen Yue then realized he is not the master of the eyes of God or the fourth-generation master of Yuwen household. And that he can just demand or grab some things for his disposal.
He realized in this place; nobody knows him and does not care about what he does.
Because of the bird, he decided to find work and earn some good cash.
He came back every day to the bird vendor. Like a layaway plan, he paid the vendor every week until fully settled.
Yuwen Yue treated this bird-like gold and seemed that he didn’t fully understand its value. Not until this moment, where everything dear to him was lost including this only animal who gave him the strength to carry on, and where his memories of Xinger lingers, his heart only can rest a bit.
When he finally took the bird, he also examined it and found some wounds. Evidence that the bird experienced some distress way back from the Yuwen household.
Yuwen Yue knew that the Yuwen household may have been in chaos after what happened to him. The only hint was this precious bird he is holding onto, he held it in his arms.
Although still cold as his nature is, the bird tells, he understood what his master is going through.
The bird was quiet for a few days, and after Yuwen Yue’s caring hands, the bird’s health went back to normal, alive, and kicking. The bird’s usual naive bullying tweets make Yuwen Yue annoyed at times.
Yuwen Yue slept soundly because he is exhausted, and just like in his former life only the bird serves as his alarm, guide, and signal. The bird really belongs to his master, it also twinkled its eyes and was about to sleep when suddenly the bird “quacked!”
