Summary: It's just a little curse... Well, actually, he's still big for his age.
Kay's comments: A delightful little story! I enjoyed reading this a lot. In the story, Nie Mingjue gets age-regressed via curse close to the Burial Mounds and of course, Wei Wuxian takes him in. Neither Nie Mingjue nor Wei Wuxian recognize each other this way, so Nie Mingjue gets an uncensored version of what living in the Burial Mounds is like and he meets and befriends our dearest A-Yuan. Of course, soon enough the Nie Sect turns up, searching for their missing leader…
Excerpt: The radish soup was lousy. A-Jue knew it would be rude to tell Xian-gege this. He could also hear the doctor-lady whispering to him about how they didn’t have enough. Xian-gege and Ning-gege didn't have bowls. People not having enough food was bad. A-Die said that righteous cultivators have to help the common people. A-Jue was going to be a righteous cultivator. Nobody could not have enough food on his watch. The taste problem and the enough problem could be solved with one thing.
