“Ying threw the tiger hook swords far across the compound and leaped down from the high roof in a perfectly executed double flip. “Everyone, follow me!” Ying shouted. “Now!” Tonglong waited for Ying and the others to travel some distance before he tucked his thick braid into his sash and leaped down in a perfect triple flip.”
― Jeff Stone, Tiger
