Drinking Horse Glacier

That winter, the canal froze. Fifteen-year-old Shen Yan lay on the ice and watched with his own eyes as Cao Gang thugs sank his father into a hole in the ice. The thug stepped on his head and asked, "You want to try too?" Shen Yan didn't say anything. He held a stick of incense under the water for a while - remembering that face. Three years later, the thug sank into the same section of the river. Ten years later, half of the canals in Jiangnan were in his hands. Twenty years later, he led 100,000 trackers to Beijing and pulled the current imperial master off the throne. Everyone in the court said he was a madman. Only the old man selling tea by the canal knows: The man who sits by the river in a daze every morning just goes home.
