Lao Da – Qian Li Yan
Gifted with the ability of the eagle’s eye, Lao Da has been said to be able to look at things with a wider perspective. Literally it means that Lao Da is the most sensible out of the ten brothers, yet it also meant that he is able to expand his vision to locate his targets miles away from him. Yet, as useful as this skill may seem, it brings along with it a curse as the saying 眼不见为净 goes. Ignorance is bliss but as Lao Da is often burdened with the task of information gathering, it adds on to his sensibility not just due to the fact that he is the eldest brother. According to the records of special abilities, foresight is just one of the many abilities of (邪眼, Jagan), also commonly known as the evil eye. The ability to manifest darkness from the eye and to manipulate its powers for one’s own personal gains has not been a rare sight for many. But due to Lao Da’s sensibility, he is using his ability for the sake of good. Also, his power is considered mild in comparison to the other abilities of Jagan and also with his other brothers’ abilities as it is practically useless in combat. The ability to give other’s nightmare in a single glare and the gathering of the dark forces to give the user invulnerability in battle is also other forms of Jagan.
From this point on, I will be giving a narrative of another version of 十兄弟 , where Lao Da is the main character.
Ever since young, Lao Da has felt that he is different from others as he has unusually sharp eyesight yet at times he will suffer from momentarily blindness. But as he grows up at an incredibly abnormal rate, his eye problems did not subside but worsen with each day. Finally, he suffer from permanent blindness, which at the time he thought was what he will continue on for the rest of his life. Worse of all, the local bullies have been giving trouble to his 爹爹 due to the fact that he is unable to pay protection fees to the bullies. Not only that, being the righteous man his 爹爹 is, his 爹爹 stood up to the bullies but got seriously injured instead. Things were looking grim for the family as losing the only breadwinner in the family further worsens the dire situation that they are in. Their financial handicap not only increases by leaps and bounds but the whole family is starving as they do not have any income at all. But regardless of all the difficulties he faced, he continues on to care for his other brothers despite the physical disability he faced at that time. But little did he know that 老天爷 has a different plan for him. He miraculously recovered one day and he discovered that he is able to scan through the whole vicinity of his hometown with incredible speed. Even though Lao Da may seem sensible and caring towards others, he is still innocent at mind and happy to be able to use his ability to help his parents. Things all seem well. For now… Little did the ten brothers know that trouble is brewing and they will face a crisis very soon… To Be Continued…
