In Dali, I Just Devoured the Manggu Toad

Duan Yu: “Madam Wang, I would like to take a look inside your martial arts chamber.”

Madam Wang: “You may, but there is one condition.”

Duan Yu: “What condition?”

Madam Wang: “You can be fertilizer for my flowers.”

Duan Yu: “What? Isn't that just asking me to die?”

Madam Wang: “Do it if you want. If not, forget it.”

Duan Yu: “Fine, I'll do it. To die beneath the peonies is to die happy, even if I become a ghost.”

Madam Wang: “Useless. You haven't even picked a flower yet, and you're already thinking about becoming a ghost?”
