"After all, I'm new here, and I need to figure out exactly what's going on before making any plans. You know how it is—every time us folks from the Ao Jing Sect use our methods, the cost ain't small."
Chen the Blind nodded in agreement, poking at the muddy ground with his stick. Slowly, he began, "Sigh, what can I say? Took up a job, heard there was something strange going on here, told me to come take a look, so I disguised myself as a fortune-teller and made my way to this Ganyuan Village."
"The first few days, I read plenty of faces—then on the third day, damned if something from inside the wall didn't come over too and ask me to read its bones!"
