Melodic House

Mu Yu couldn’t make out what the man mumbled. The man sat up and, in a bleary state, slowly did up his shirt buttons, albeit getting one wrong. He wore a dark green robe with the embroidery of an old man poking his tongue out whilst sporting a zany face. It was actually the man’s face himself. Amusing one, he was. The man rubbed his eyes and questioned, “Who are you?”

“This one is Ximen Buxing’s friend and is here for him. Would you be able to notify him?”

“Ximen Buxing? What’s that got to do with me, then?”

The man bent over to search for his shoe. One of them was on the stone board, but the other was nowhere in sight. Frustrated, he took off his shoe and hurled it into the water before strutting off on bare feet.

“He’s member of an unorthodox faction?” asked Mu Yu, unconvinced the man was an ordinary man given the place.

“Haven’t you noticed he’s no ordinary man?” Ku Mu remarked, in deep thought.

“Ever since coming to this street, I’ve yet to encounter anyone ordinary. If you were to tell me he had a thing for men, I’d believe you,” responded Mu Yu, watching the man walk out the door.

There were no aggressive guards or beasts. If anything, it was especially tranquil. It didn’t have the ambience of a place where the unorthodox faction gathered.

“Fine, fine, I’ll play with someone else. Brother Han, you want to play?”

The bearded man rolled over, giving the lanky youth his back.

“Auntie Xue?”

“That’s Sister Xue for you.” Auntie Xue threatened the youth with her needle. She was quite the beauty, but she had a few unfortunate wrinkles.

The lanky youth poked his tongue and mouthed, “Act your age.”

“Go and play with him,” instructed Ku Mu.

“All righty.” Mu Yu rubbed his hands.

The lanky youth seemed to be the only one they could have a conversation with.

Mu Yu never gambled before. He was far too naïve to play against someone from the unorthodox faction.
