The Tribe Of The 57th Flower

By Spaced Teacher

And so the battle raged for many millenia. Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao always trying to drive Sheng Di from her Kingdom. Sheng Di playfully toying with and constantly frustrating Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao. Until in the mid 20th Century Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao launched an attack against Sheng Di known in the West as " The Attack Of The Ferocious Kitten ". Sheng Di knew this attack was coming but she underestimated it's ferocity. She had been caught semi-unprepared. Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao had won a small insignificant battle in this never ending war between them. He had succeeded in highly aggravating Sheng Di. He had her full undivided attention now.

Sheng Di retreated to the Divinely Cloud Shrouded Yellow Mountains and set about planning her counter attack. She had something planned for Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao that was genius in it's subtlety and visciousness. For 30-40 years she planned , she recruited , she trained , and she plotted.Phase one was complete.

In the last two decades of the century she quietly and slowly launched her attack. First she arranged for the leader of the pai ku ta { the most powerful nation of foreigners} to visit Jardeen. He came bearing gifts of friendship and felicity for the Righteous Jardeen people and cooperation for the Jardeen leadership. The "Seed Of Felicity" had been planted. Over the course of the next few years good feelings prevailed between the Jardeen people and all the pai ku nations. Then Sheng Di quietly infiltrated her newest troops.Phase two was complete.

The Tribe Of The 57th Flower were pai ku{foreign} people from all pai ku nations of the world. Most of them were light haired,light skinned and light eyed but not all of them. It did not matter to Sheng Di what the pai ku looked like but rather what they believed. All of these pai ku were "Kindred Spirits". All of these pai ku knew of the ancient curse of Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao upon the Righteous Jardeen people.All of these pai ku wanted to help the Righteous Jardeen people be rid of this curse but were powerless to help until this very moment in history. All of them were friends to the Righteous Jardeen people. Sheng Di had been recruiting them and training them for over thirty years. And NOW was the time to release them to do their job. FREE the Righteous Jardeen people from the ancient eternal curse of Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao. Over the course of the next few years " The Tribe Of The 57th Flower" quietly went about their business. Slowly the " Seed Of Felicity" which had been planted began to take root and become a strong sturdy young oak.They helped the Righteous Jardeen people understand what was possible when freedom and a good attitude were your allies. They arranged for cultural visits in music , art, literature and all other endeavors of human creativity to come visit Jardeen and show the Righteous Jardeen people the cultures of all the pai ku nations. They also arranged reciprocal visits of Jardeen cultural and sports events to tour the pai ku nations for the pai ku people's understanding of Jardeen. They taught in Jardeen universities so the Jardeen students could understand pai ku education. They arranged for Jardeen and pai ku students to study in each others countries.They were very very effective.Sheng Di's plan was masterful!! Phase three was complete.

In the last 12 years of the century Shawng Dee brought the Economic Messiah as the prophecy predicted. His name was Deng Xiao Ping. He unleashed economic prosperity upon the Righteous Jardeen people the fashion of which had never before been seen in history. He lifted them from their poverty and dismal futures into a time of great hope and anticipation. The "Seed Of Felicity" which Sheng Di had planted many years ago was now " The Mighty Oak Of The Righteous Jardeen Nation"!!

To this very day "The Mighty Oak Of The Righteous Jardeen Nation" thrives. When will phase 5 begin? What will it be like? Is Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao beaten finally and decisively?Will the evil eternal curse Emperor Wo Bu Zhi Dao cast upon the Righteous Jardeen people be lifted FINALLY?

Only Shawng Dee knows and she isn't telling ANYONE yet. Stay tuned it should be interesting. Friends ALWAYS seek "The Sisters And Brothers Of The Jardeen Rose And Jasmine" " The Dragons Of The Gardens And Forests" "The Tribe Of The 57th Flower" and Sheng Di herself and peace and prosperity shall be yours.

By the Grace of Li Tan. May peace be upon you.

Readers please be aware that these stories of " Spaced Teacher's Adventures In The Middle Cosmos { China } are written in two different threads. " Spaced Teacher Battles The Yellow Knights Of The HaNazee " are the true stories of my experiences here in The Middle Cosmos while " The Jardeen Roses Of Li Tan" is my FICTIONAL re-write of 5,000 years of Chinese history , mythology and culture from a foreigner's perspective.You're probably thinking " My God how presumptuous of him." Trust me somebody had to do it. They've had 5,000 years to get the job done and they just keep screwing it up. We trust our readers to be able to distinguish between the two topic threads contained within the story. That may be a giant leap of faith on the author's ,my ,part. I write the damn story and there are days I can't remember which thread is which. The Middle Cosmos has a way of confusing the most rational clear thinking people. It's part of the price you must pay for the experiences of living here. As is the case with all of humanity's gardens there are flowers and weeds. The Chinese garden is no different in that regard , they have flowers in the form of the Jardeen Roses and Jasmine and crabgrass in the form of the HaNazee. I try to weed the crabgrass while focusing on and accentuating the Jardeen Roses and Jasmine. I have taken only the barest minimum of poetic license in an effort to make these stories more enjoyable to read for you. Trust me when I tell you it happened 99 % exactly as I tell it. All names have been fictionalized to protect the guilty from legal action be that civil or criminal and to protect the innocent from the guilty and most importantly to protect the author , yours truly , from the crabgrass in the Chinese garden. Those HaNazee can be vicious bastards!! lol The HaNazee are well known for having an aversion to the spelling and grammar challenged among us so be careful with your grammar and spelling you never know when The HaNazee Grammar Master #1 or The HaNazee Spelling Misstress # 7 are watching.
