Default Edit excerpt of a story

Fanli enjoined his guards:"Escort the distinguished envoys to hotel, and call doctors to help them." The guards echoed.

Fanli came up a few steps, asked:"What is your name?" The girl asked back:"What are you saying?" Fanli said, once again,"What is your name?" The girl replied:"I am called Ah Qing, and you?"

Fanli smiled slightly,thinking in mind:"She is a country girl, of course she does not know what is etiquette. It is really a miracle that she has learned so wonderful swordsmanship. Wu Kingdom would be conquered and I would be no more to worry about it if I know her master and invite the master to train our warriors." Having imagined that the days when he would meet Xi Shi again could be counted with fingers, his heart got warmed, and saying, "I am Fanli, girl.I'd invite you to my home to dinner." Ah Qing shook her head:"I don't want to be there. I'd have my sheep browsed." Fanli said:"There is a big lawn in my backyard. You can herd your sheep there. Plus, I would like to compensate you 10 sheep."

Ah Qing applaused, cheerful:"Is there a big lawn in your house? That is great! I don't want your sheep, since my sheep is not killed by you." She went down, petting the two pieces of the dead sheep, looking sad,"Mr.White,you were so good-natured, but the badman killed you. I...I cannot save you now."

Fanli told his guards:"Oversew the two pieces of the sheep together, and bury it beside the girl's house."
Ah Qing stood up.There were two tears on her face, but her eyes looked jubilant.She said, "Fanli, you...you don't let them to eat Mr.White?" Fanli replied:"Of course not. That is your good Mr.White, and he was so good-natured. No one is allowed to eat it." Ah Qing sighed, saying:"You are so kind. What I hate most is that others take my sheep and kill them and then serve as their meat.But my mom has said that if we don't sell our sheep, we will not have money to buy rice."
Ah Qing was very excited, and hugged Fanli, shouting out,"You are really a good man!"
