We know chinese that is spoken in Wuxia is much different than the modern chinese. And there have been dozens of popular sayings or classic lines used throughout wuxia films that I simply love because they are filled with metaphors or simply blunt funny. Let's list them in english and see if others can recognize them.
I'll start:
Pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger.
Water descends, rock emerges.
See you ill, take your life.
Does your body have feces?
Sometimes I find myself use these lines to my english speaking friends, and they would be like wtf are you talking about? haha
