Master Chai and Xiaozhou didn't reach the mountain until dusk.
Master Jiang was busy directing his disciples to prepare vegetables when he saw them coming over. He quickly came out to exchange a few pleasantries:
"Why didn't you come by in the afternoon when you had time?"
The two of them felt a bit dizzy and seemed slightly out of sorts: "In the afternoon, we went for a massage and moxibustion..."
Talking about this was definitely a topic Master Jiang could relate to:
"Comfortable, right? Did you fall asleep? Let me tell you, our occupational ailment is that it hurts a bit when you get the treatment, but once that glass cup is placed on, you feel sleepy, and paired with that moxibustion, oh my!"
The reason he used just interjections was that he couldn't quite describe it.
Initially, when the cup is applied, it stings a bit, but as it presses down heavily on your back, you easily drift into a drowsy state.
