Ma Ha was lying in a hilltop meadow, staring off into the distant sky. Near him was his herd of sheep, nibbling away at the grass. The life of a shepherd is quite a solitary one. Normally he might sing or whistle to his sheep, but today, he wasn’t quite in the mood for that. He was just lying in the meadow, staring blankly into the vast blue skies above. Suddenly he seemed to hear footsteps of a person approaching him. He ignored it. Being neither a man of riches or power, he was certain he would be the last person on earth to be looked for. But the footsteps came closer and closer until they stopped at his side. Unwillingly, he tilted his head back to see who was there. It was Liu Mei! Startled, he quickly rose to his feet.
