Sha Gu replied, “Good, good!”
Yang Guo called out, “I’m over here, come and catch me!”
Sha Gu opened her arms and followed the calls. Yang Guo possessed the lightness kung fu of the Ancient Tomb sect, even if Sha Gu wasn’t blindfolded she would not be able to catch him, after chasing for a while, she crashed into a tree and bruised her forehead as a result; she started to cry out in pain.
Yang Guo was afraid that Sha Gu would not want to play anymore so he deliberately slowed down and made light noise. Sha Gu rushed forward and grabbed his back and called out, “I’ve caught you, I’ve caught you!” Her face was full of delight as she took off her blindfold.
Yang Guo said, “Fine, I’ve lost, ask me ask a question.”
She stared at him, startled, her mind was uncertain; she didn’t know what to ask. After a long while, she asked, “Good brother, have you eaten yet?”
She thought for so long but came up with such a simple question, Yang Guo almost laughed. He didn’t make a sound and seriously replied, “I’ve eaten already.”
Sha Gu nodded and didn’t say anything else.
Yang Guo said, “What else do you want to ask?”
Sha Gu shook her head and said, “I don’t want to ask anymore, let’s play again.”
Yang Guo said, “Fine, come and catch me.”
Sha Gu touched the bruise on her forehead and said, “This time it’s your turn to catch me.” This time, she didn’t act crazy, Yang Guo didn’t predict this but since this was what he wanted he took the handkerchief and blindfolded himself.
Though Sha Gu was mad, her lightness kung fu was pretty good; Yang Guo couldn’t see, how could he catch her? He leapt forward a few times and then secretly he tore an opening in the blindfold and saw her hiding on the right behind a large tree. He deliberately faced the left, pretending to think, he said, “Where are you? Where are you?” He suddenly flipped over and caught her wrist. He quickly put the handkerchief in his pockets with his left hand in case she saw the ripped handkerchief. He laughed and said, “This time it’s my turn to ask you a question.”
Sha Gu said, “I’ve eaten already.”
Yang Guo laughed and said, “I’m not asking about that. This is my question, you know my father, right?” His face was extremely serious as he said this.
Sha Gu said, “Who’s your father?”
Yang Guo said, “There’s a person who looks just like me, who is that?”
Sha Gu said, “Ah, that’s brother Yang.”
Yang Guo asked, “You saw that brother Yang being killed by someone didn’t you?”
Sha Gu said, “Yeah, it was in the middle of the night in a temple, there were lots of crows calling out ‘wu ai’, ‘wu ai’, ‘wu ai’!” The forest was covered and hidden and was already dark; the calls made the forest seem even more eerie.
Yang Guo trembled and asked, “How did brother Yang die?”
Sha Gu said, “Auntie wanted me to say something but brother Yang didn’t allow me to say it; he struck Auntie with a palm and laughed out loud, ha-ha! Ha-ha! Ha-ha!” She used all her efforts in copying Yang Kang’s laugh before he died, her laugh even scared herself and her face was filled with fear.
Yang Guo listened puzzled, he asked, “Who is Auntie?”
Sha Gu said, “Auntie is Auntie.”
