Xiao Ge is the romantic pairing. I’ll stick as closely to the original as I can, but side plots will develop later, so steer clear if that’s not your thing.
After the orphan Si Buyan is adopted by an unreliable master, he disappears and never comes back. Si Buyan can’t find him, but that’s nothing new: the old geezer is always flying all over the place.
Then my best friend and I went bungee jumping, only for that old geezer and Yang Guiyan to trick us into another world. I spent days flying through the sky. At first, I begged anyone who’d listen to let me land in the sea and somehow survive. Who could’ve guessed I’d end up in a desert? Maybe my grandmaster answered my prayers or something, because I spotted three people walking through the sand. I got excited and immediately called for help. The man who caught me was my family...
Damn, it took me until later to realize that my idiot master had completely screwed me over by dumping me in this world. There are ghosts everywhere here. I’d never had a phobia of them before, but I still remember the thing on the back of a man in sunglasses licking my hand. It disgusted me for three days and brought back memories from when I was little, when a vengeful ghost realized it couldn’t kill me and kept my hand in its mouth for days.
Heh. My name is Si Buyan. At the beginning of this story, I wanted to tell you the ending, but I can’t say too much. Maybe that’s what my master meant when he named me: to know everything in the world, yet be unable to speak of it. Buyan, Buyan: so many bitter things locked in my heart.
