Chapter 54 – Flying snow and dust
I carried Sui Yan's body and found an abandoned fishing boat by the riverbank. I thought, why not drift down the river like this? It might be for the best.
If I couldn't hold on any longer, I'd just let myself drift along, resting on a river of stars.
Midway, an unexpected guest boarded the boat—a woman with striking features.
She said she had escaped from a high-class brothel, selling her skills but not her body.
I was taken aback. She spat twice and corrected herself, saying she sold her body but not her skills.
I asked if she brought any instruments and could play a tune for me.
She nodded confidently, then puffed her cheeks and began to perform her unique skill—playing her face with her fingers.
I fell silent and raised a hand to stop her performance.
She said if I paid more, I could enjoy her belly-playing act, but I had to persuade her to take a break.@@novelbin@@
The poison in my body hadn't claimed my life yet, even though I had glimpsed the door to death, the path seemed to stretch on.
The long night was unbearable, and I couldn't endure her talent show any longer, so I gave her a bag of money to stop.
Then she said, let me tell you a story.
My story is long, perhaps because my heart is already overloaded, always wanting to confide in someone.
What do you think?
