@mcc “八人入” isn’t wrong, but it feels incomplete — like “eight people enter...” and then you wait for the rest.
“八人入众” is more satisfying. It means “eight people enter a crowd” — a complete image, and a great start for a story.
To me, it feels like the opening of a wuxia (武侠 martial arts) tale.
In wuxia, heroes often disappear into crowds before they act. So “eight people enter a crowd” already makes me curious: who are they? what happens next?
Thanks for sharing !
