San mao liu lang ji

[first lines]

Narrator:
You probably never heard of the boy, San Mao, before. He was orphaned during the war. He didn't have an easy childhood, wandering from place to place. One day he heard a rumor of a certain town that offered rich pickings to a bright young lad such as he. So he decided to visit the place. At least he should find some food to eat there. Maybe even his lost mother.
