story telling
If you are a hero, are you brave enough to commit suicide rather than be killed by your enemies? Many years ago, there was a man named Xiang Yu, who was brave, strong and confident, and had a beautiful girlfriend Yu Ji. Xiang Yu was the leader of Chu, and he had an enemy, Liu Bang, who was the leader of Han. Liu Bang was sly but he was also really smart, so he survived many times from Xiang Yu’s attacks. One day, Liu Bang’s army surrounded the army of Xiang Yu, and Liu Bang let his soldiers sing the song from Xiang Yu’s hometown which made Xiang Yu think that he had failed and it was a hopeless situation. Xiang Yu was also afraid that Yu Ji would be arrested by Liu Bang. However, he became very calm and said to Yu Ji: “Honey, I know if you are arrested by Liu Bang, you will be killed in a very cruel way, so I have to kill you first.” Yu Ji agreed, so Xiang Yu killed Yu Ji before leading his soldiers to fight with Liu Bang’s army. Xiang Yu killed many enemies but his soldiers were all killed. He also didn’t want to be killed by Liu Bang, so he laughed loudly near a river and jumped into it. Although Xiang Yu had failed, he is still thought a hero in history.

Chinese traditional tale should be expressed in another way which contains more details out of imagination, then the hero will come to our eyes vividly..
