Takhoni, Xu-Cheng ektu haslo: "Shri-ing erokom bolle toh besh shotti bole mone hocche."

Wun-zhao-er moner bhitor chotpot korchilo: 'Ami shotti bolechi mane ki? Tumi shotti bolo ni? Jodi shotti na-i bolte, tahole amar bame chokh ta-ke kalo ke kore dilo?'

"Abar kheli, ami ja boli ta rakhi, age tomar kotha bujhte parini."

Xu-Cheng matha nuloo, hath tule bhollo: "Tobe ki shuru korbo?"

Wun-zhao matha nuloo, tarpor chokh chuto kore Xu-Cheng er hater dike takiye roilo. Ebar Xu-Cheng jebhabe hat bariyechilo, se sotti shob dekhte peyechilo. Kintu ebaro ki shei dui angul eksathe kore bame chokhe gutiye dilo? Se ki amar chokh du-to andho kore dite chay?

"Uff! Tumi oi chhoto shoytan ta-ke!" Byathay kastore Wun-zhao tar onno chokh ta hath diye chepe dhore shab-shap korlo. Je ei shob shuru korechilo, shei Shen Wan-san tar matha onno dike ghuriye dilo ebong emon ekta bhaab korlo jeno she "ei lokta ke, ami chini na."

Xu-Cheng tar eto krodh bujhte parle o krodh korlo na, borong ektu mithye haslo: "Amar mone hocche Shri-ing er chokhe kosto hocche, tahole r khelai kaj nei."

Wun-zhao more jawar moton krodh peyechilo, tin bar akromon koreo she ekbaro rokkha korte pareni. Jodi sadharon keu hoto, tahole andhaj koreo ekbar thik kore rakhte parto.

Ar tar moto je nijei nijei bhabto je tar goti Xu-Cheng er theke dhruto, she dui sadharon manuser cheyeo kharap obosthay royeche. Tar oi panda-chokh dekhe bujha jacche je Wun-zhao er ekhon kothao lukate icche korche.

Kintu kiser ki, Shen Yao thanda mathay ekta kotha bole dilo. Se tar babar dike takiye bhole: "Baba, tomar bodyguard-ke ektu samlao, amar Tiger-er upor jate kono golarami na kore."

Bari-er kaj korar meye-ti r thakte pere na, she bole uthlo: "Moni, apnara voy paben na, Tiger ekta chele kukur."

Ran Jing tar hat diye mukh chepe hasi thamate parlo na. Shudhu Wun-zhao shekhane boshe khubi lojjay pore gelo. Kotha toh she nijei bolechilo, kintu ki ar kora jai!

Tarpor she chichiye uthlo: "Ei khelay je rokkha kore tar obostha khubi kharap thake, goti ba proti-kriya mapar kono upay nei. Jodi ami hotam, ami o tomake gulte partam, ekbar tumi rokkha kore dekho na keno?"

Wun-zhao moner vhitore bhablo: 'Amar chokh panda erokom hoyeche, tomake o ekbar dekhiye debo.'

Shen Yao turonto bole uthlo: "Amar mone hoy bad dewa-i bhalo, onek rat hoyeche, ekhon bishram newa uchit, kal oder abar chakri te jete hobe."

Shen Wan-san oboshhyi tar bodyguard er pokkho nebo, she turonto bole uthlo: "Tuna-tuni na thakle ki ar moja pawa jay?"

"Thik ache, jokhon Shri-ing jid korechen, tobe akromon apnarai korun," Xu-Cheng kono porowa na kore bhollo.

Wun-zhao dant chepe bhollo: "Ami o tin bar angul guraebo, jodi apnar duto ba tar beshi rokkha korte paren, tahole ami shotti kukurer sathe tai korbo!"

"Shri-ing erokom korchen keno? Amra toh shudhu ektu khela korchi, emon khub khub kora uchit na. Ashun, ami prostut," Xu-Cheng bhollo.

Wun-zhao hat tule Xu-Cheng er dike takalo, onno dike Xu-Cheng o tar dike takiye roilo.

Wun-zhao moner vhitore ektu bhablo, kichukkhon chinta korar por, hotath hat bariye angul gurae. Prothome she duto angul eksathe kore Xu-Cheng er dane chokhe gurae, kintu hotath dekhe je Xu-Cheng ek hat diye dane chokh dhake, Wun-zhao turonto dui angul alada kore baki dike gurae. Ete kore Xu-Cheng shudhu ekdik dhakte parbe, kintu faka angul onno chokhe lege jabe. Jodi na Xu-Cheng turonto hat tule majhkane rodh kore. Ei karon ei je Wun-zhao bolechilo rokkha korar lokta khub asurakkhito thake.

Kintu Wun-zhao kkhono bhabte pareni je, jemoni she angul alada korbe, Xu-Cheng dane chokh dhaka hat ta ulte ekta chhuri er moton kore tule tar faka angul barate rodh kore dilo!

Jokhon Wun-zhao tar dui angul diye chokh chunte parlo na, tokhon tar bujhte parlo je Xu-Cheng etota shighri tar akromon rodh kore feleche. Wun-zhao chokh du-to shuru kore bhablo, tar eto sreshtho poribortoner poreo Xu-Cheng ki kore eto druto tar sathe tal rakhte parlo!

Hat namiye Xu-Cheng ektu haslo: "Shri-ing, aro du bar baki ache."

"Ami guraechi!" Wun-zhao ebar kono purvabhas chara ekta gorjon diye hat tule Xu-Cheng er dike gurae. Ei dhoroner akromon thik churi korar moto, ar tar goti diye sadharon manuser pokhe samlano asombhav.

Kintu tar hat tolar muhurte, Xu-Cheng er mastishko shei sabdher maddhome upodesh peye nijei nijei prothome hat namiye feler por abar druto tule feli, Wun-zhao abar faka angul diye gurae, kintu Xu-Cheng er hat tule tar churi rodh kore dilo.

Wun-zhao jokhon dekhlo je tar angul du-ti atke geche, she obak hoye gelo ebong ascharya hoye Xu-Cheng er dike takalo.

Ei loktar asole ki rokom proti-kriya ebong goti ache? Emon churi korar somoyeo she ki kore nijei nijei rokkha korte pare, eke to chintai kora jay na!

"Baba, tomar ei bodyguard er choritro niye to shomossha ache," Shen Yao ebar lojja peye babar dike takalo, moner vhitore ektu gorbo hocche, karon baba Xu-Cheng ke kosto dite cheyechilo, r ekhon Xu-Cheng tar man rakheche.

Shen Wan-san er ekhon icche korchilo ekta chabuk niye Wun-zhao ke marte, moner vhitore tuccho bhablo: 'Sreshtho? Hunk! Sipahi? Hunk! 36 jon er moddhe shera 10? Tomar panda chokher oi roop dekho!'

Kintu meyer kothar jonne she tar man rakhte parbe na, she turonto bodyguard er theke nijeke alada korlo ebong ekta kasli diye bhollo: "Sipahi manuser ki r choritro thake? Tumi tar sathe jor koro na."

Wun-zhao er kete ranna korar ichhe korchilo: "Apnara khub onnay korchen!"

Xu-Cheng dekhe je she dhire dhire hat fire niche, sheo nijer hat fire nilo. Ke jane Wun-zhao hotath abar hat tule bole uthlo: "Ami biswas kori na!"

Ebar Wun-zhao shudhu dui angul eksathe kore Xu-Cheng er dike gurae, Xu-Cheng khub shantovabe hat diye chokh dhake jate she chokhe chunte na pare. She rege giye hat fire niye, jokhon dekhlo Xu-Cheng o hat fire niyeche, tabe du hate du-ti chokh gurae.

Ete kore yodi o ektu fakibaji hoto, kintu Wun-zhao ekhon shudhu protishodh nite chay jate Xu-Cheng er o chokhe dag lage, joy-parajoy ar tar kache kono bishoy chilo na. She chai Xu-Cheng o panda chokh niye ghuru-kruk, du hate gurae, yodi o Xu-Cheng ek hate chokh dhake, ba hat tule rodh kore, tobu du hater akromon rodh kora jay na.

Kintu, Wun-zhao ke pagol kore dewar moto ghotona ghotlo, Xu-Cheng prothome ek hat diye rodh korchilo, kintu tar du hater akromon dekhe, Xu-Cheng ekta hat du chokher samne shari kore rakhlo, ebar Wun-zhao shudhu Xu-Cheng er hatei gurae parlo.

She jokhon dekhlo je Xu-Cheng etota druto proti-kriya korche, she pagol hoye gelo.

Tarpor dant chepe meje te chapro diye bhollo: "Khelbo na!"

Yodi hoto, she kandte parto! Erkom onnay ki kora jay? Amake ekbar chunte dile ki more jabe?

Tar rege giye chole jawa dekhe, lojjay ki ar kora, kintu khub abhadro bhabe chole jawar karone Shen Wan-san daklo: "Kothay jaccho?"

Wun-zhao pichon na fire bole gelo: "Ami ekhoni giye Tiger-er sathe tai korbo, chele ki meye dekhbo na!"
