Excerpts from Cathay: Jewel of the East:
By nature, men are nearly alike; by practice, they get
to be wide
apart.
-- Master Kung, Lun Yu
… Western Théans may not be prepared for the kind of social
interaction they will encounter in Xian Bei. When approaching a ger,
your guide will call to the host to curb the dog. This is not an
insult
but rather is good practice as most Xian Bei have trained their
sturdy
lieh chien to be very suspicious of strangers. …When a
Xian Bei
asks how you are, always respond initially that things are going
well.
Wait until later in the conversation to share details about ill
health
or misfortune.
…Huan Shu (“Illusion”) magic is an ability to
focus qi
into physical expressions, so it is rare for this to be found in
someone
who is not also a dedicated martial artist or a monk. Those who
practice
this magic are so graceful that when they leap they seem to have
the
ability to levitate, walk up walls, or balance on the tops of
bamboo
plants.
…The shores of the Corridors of Flame are the source of bao
yu
or abalone pearls prized for their rich blue-green-purple
iridescence
and conch pearls, which come in all shades of pink and red. The
shells
of these mollusks are jewels in themselves, used for small
carvings and
as inlay in furniture. Rarest of all pearls are the flame
colored pearls
found only in the marketplace of Shegar in Khimal. No one knows
what
creature produces these beauties, which glow like a live coal in
the
sunlight. Flame-pearl merchants are evasive about their origin
but rumor
has it that they are actually magically solidified fire from the
Corridors of Flame.
…Hua Shao Ren Te combines a variety of
sword attacks for
offense with soft martial arts moves for defense. The sword used
by this
School is the jian, a straight double-bladed weapon of
great
flexibility, associated with nobles and scholars. Students
practice
their moves in slow motion, observing their positions carefully
to weed
out imperfections in their technique. In fact, the only
full-speed
experience many practitioners get in using their style comes
during
actual combat, so some have trouble adjusting to the quickened
tempo.
It is difficult to deal with him who
will stuff
himself with food the whole day without applying his mind to
anything
good. Are there not liu po* and wei qi players? To be one of
these would
still be better than doing nothing at all.
-- Master Kung, Lun Yu
(*refers to players of liu po, a popular dice game)
