00:01:32,433 --> 00:01:36,879
(Zhan Zhao Adventures)

2
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:39,880
(Episode 19)

3
00:01:40,048 --> 00:01:41,374
Tanxi Town...

4
00:01:47,872 --> 00:01:51,119
Back when I was serving as a clerk there,

5
00:01:52,472 --> 00:01:53,959
I did work on that case.

6
00:01:56,927 --> 00:01:59,311
Could it have been a wrongful conviction?

7
00:02:00,088 --> 00:02:01,311
A wrongful conviction?

8
00:02:02,048 --> 00:02:03,271
Impossible.

9
00:02:06,521 --> 00:02:07,744
I see it now.

10
00:02:08,167 --> 00:02:10,134
You looked like you wanted to murder me before

11
00:02:10,527 --> 00:02:12,053
because of this case.

12
00:02:13,368 --> 00:02:14,591
How unfortunate.

13
00:02:15,088 --> 00:02:16,311
Really unfortunate.

14
00:02:16,847 --> 00:02:18,070
What's unfortunate?

15
00:02:19,247 --> 00:02:21,294
It's unfortunate that all your righteous anger

16
00:02:21,767 --> 00:02:23,494
has nowhere to go now.

17
00:02:24,624 --> 00:02:26,510
When I took over this case,

18
00:02:27,247 --> 00:02:28,651
in the case files,

19
00:02:28,742 --> 00:02:31,179
whether it was the suspect's motive,

20
00:02:31,408 --> 00:02:33,169
the witness statements,

21
00:02:33,260 --> 00:02:35,379
or the physical evidence,

22
00:02:35,470 --> 00:02:36,956
everything was crystal clear.

23
00:02:37,215 --> 00:02:38,438
There was no injustice at all.

24
00:02:43,447 --> 00:02:45,214
What's your relationship to Jin Xue Wen?

25
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:48,399
Why are you questioning this case?

26
00:02:48,490 --> 00:02:49,737
Don't you know

27
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,760
Jin Xue Wen was a notorious womanizer?

28
00:02:52,928 --> 00:02:54,151
After he died,

29
00:02:54,407 --> 00:02:57,653
the girls in Tanxi Town were all relieved, weren't they?

30
00:03:18,208 --> 00:03:20,414
Just now, you said you took over this case.

31
00:03:22,728 --> 00:03:25,389
So, you weren't involved in the earlier investigation.

32
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:26,703
That's right.

33
00:03:26,961 --> 00:03:29,972
When I took over, the case was already closed.

34
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,303
But so what?

35
00:03:31,687 --> 00:03:32,910
Just by reading the files,

36
00:03:33,288 --> 00:03:36,074
I could tell this case was rock solid with no way to overturn it.

37
00:03:36,165 --> 00:03:38,453
Since you insist the facts are clear

38
00:03:38,687 --> 00:03:39,974
and the evidence is solid,

39
00:03:43,088 --> 00:03:45,155
then you should be able to recap the details of the case.

40
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,606
It has been 15 years.

41
00:03:49,415 --> 00:03:50,638
I don't remember anymore.

42
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,423
You can't remember what happened 15 years ago.

43
00:03:54,648 --> 00:03:55,871
Then how about this?

44
00:03:56,527 --> 00:03:57,750
You recognize this, don't you?

45
00:04:16,928 --> 00:04:18,151
If you keep quiet,

46
00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:20,206
you're just helping the person who's threatening you.

47
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,801
That person who has leverage over you

48
00:04:24,287 --> 00:04:25,574
is not He Bo.

49
00:05:06,127 --> 00:05:09,157
That Yicheng County Magistrate admitted what really threatened him

50
00:05:09,248 --> 00:05:10,471
was another ledger.

51
00:05:10,768 --> 00:05:13,534
It recorded all the wrongful cases he handled as an official.

52
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,446
Did Si Ming use those records to keep those officials in line?

53
00:05:20,208 --> 00:05:21,814
He knows about so many wrongful cases.

54
00:05:23,407 --> 00:05:24,814
Could he be with the government?

55
00:05:26,088 --> 00:05:27,311
We're not sure yet.

56
00:05:28,312 --> 00:05:29,597
But we do know

57
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:33,294
it's Si Ming who sent someone to inform Zhi Hua about the Jin Xue Wen case.

58
00:05:33,648 --> 00:05:36,633
So this case is our breakthrough in finding Si Ming.

59
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,551
This is Bai's biggest burden.

60
00:05:42,017 --> 00:05:43,782
We need to help him get past it.

61
00:05:47,895 --> 00:05:49,118
By the way,

62
00:05:49,488 --> 00:05:51,676
what did the court decide about Yue Hua?

63
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,191
Yue Hua made great contributions in the Zhongxiao Courtyard case. The court

64
00:05:56,568 --> 00:05:58,668
has decided to let her go as her merits offset her faults.

65
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,103
That's good to hear.

66
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,983
What about you? Did you get caught up in it?

67
00:06:08,367 --> 00:06:10,854
In court, people like Cheng Si Qing

68
00:06:11,311 --> 00:06:13,045
have always been at odds with the Kaifeng Tribunal.

69
00:06:13,856 --> 00:06:15,974
Of course they jumped at the chance to make a big fuss.

70
00:06:16,065 --> 00:06:17,510
But Lord Bao stood up for me.

71
00:06:18,167 --> 00:06:20,431
In the end, the court let me off without punishment.

72
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,943
The Zhongxiao Courtyard case is finally settled.

73
00:06:30,225 --> 00:06:32,288
What are you planning to do next?

74
00:06:33,215 --> 00:06:34,438
What are you planning to do next?

75
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,840
I've received a confidential order from the court

76
00:06:37,921 --> 00:06:39,972
to investigate everyone connected to Prince Xiangyang.

77
00:06:40,063 --> 00:06:41,286
That's it.

78
00:06:41,895 --> 00:06:43,375
I'm going to keep digging as well.

79
00:06:43,527 --> 00:06:45,094
I still want to help him find peace.

80
00:06:45,889 --> 00:06:47,968
But you're not tied down by imperial orders. Why...

81
00:06:48,103 --> 00:06:50,023
You just said you wanted to drive him away.

82
00:06:50,114 --> 00:06:52,534
But you are actually driving yourself away.

83
00:06:57,088 --> 00:06:58,844
I just didn't want your family to worry about you.

84
00:06:59,328 --> 00:07:01,255
Linglong Manor isn't far from Xiangyang.

85
00:07:02,008 --> 00:07:03,231
She can't leave.

86
00:07:05,487 --> 00:07:08,334
You can drive out anyone but Huo.

87
00:07:09,248 --> 00:07:10,534
What's the point of sending her back?

88
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:12,686
So she can marry Shao Ji Zu?

89
00:07:24,968 --> 00:07:27,654
Liu, we left in such a rush that day.

90
00:07:27,927 --> 00:07:29,653
I didn't have time to put up a gravestone for you.

91
00:07:29,847 --> 00:07:31,070
I'm making it up to you today.

92
00:07:31,407 --> 00:07:34,026
I've also brought you the Liuli Spring Wine.

93
00:07:40,727 --> 00:07:41,950
About the Zhongxiao Courtyard case,

94
00:07:42,568 --> 00:07:44,813
the main culprit, He Bo, was killed by his enemy.

95
00:07:45,847 --> 00:07:47,693
Zhi Hua was also caught.

96
00:07:48,545 --> 00:07:51,377
Everyone involved in abducting and imprisoning innocent girls

97
00:07:51,468 --> 00:07:52,691
had been brought to justice.

98
00:07:53,786 --> 00:07:55,271
It was all thanks to your clues.

99
00:07:55,808 --> 00:07:58,510
Only then could the truth come to light for everyone.

100
00:08:00,287 --> 00:08:01,510
You can rest in peace now.

101
00:08:02,888 --> 00:08:04,294
I remember you once told me

102
00:08:04,616 --> 00:08:06,062
that after you became a constable,

103
00:08:06,336 --> 00:08:07,902
there was always endless work to do.

104
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,655
You always wished you could just take a couple of days off.

105
00:08:12,487 --> 00:08:15,431
Here, you are surrounded by the lake and mountains.

106
00:08:16,736 --> 00:08:18,182
Rest well here.

107
00:08:19,407 --> 00:08:20,630
I'll visit you often.

108
00:08:21,439 --> 00:08:22,662
Don't worry.

109
00:08:23,104 --> 00:08:24,469
For the Prince Xiangyang case,

110
00:08:25,248 --> 00:08:28,014
no matter what, I'll see it through to the very end.

111
00:08:28,607 --> 00:08:30,253
If your spirit is still out there,

112
00:08:30,775 --> 00:08:32,421
please watch over us from above.

113
00:08:45,128 --> 00:08:46,493
I always keep my word.

114
00:09:14,367 --> 00:09:16,253
Could you please let the prince know again

115
00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:18,440
that the two of us have been waiting here for two hours.

116
00:09:18,532 --> 00:09:21,394
Commander Shao, His Highness knows you two are waiting here.

117
00:09:21,485 --> 00:09:23,841
But right now, he's out hunting and is in high spirits.

118
00:09:24,008 --> 00:09:26,431
Both of you, please try to be patient.

119
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,229
Mount up! Come and ride a couple of laps with me!

120
00:10:49,808 --> 00:10:51,031
What's wrong?

121
00:10:51,847 --> 00:10:53,093
Still thinking about

122
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,446
the Zhongxiao Courtyard case?

123
00:10:58,647 --> 00:10:59,960
Si Ming and I

124
00:11:00,081 --> 00:11:03,823
feel deeply ashamed about the Zhongxiao Courtyard case.

125
00:11:05,288 --> 00:11:07,373
If we had acted sooner at the mass grave,

126
00:11:07,464 --> 00:11:09,614
we wouldn't have caused you this much trouble.

127
00:11:10,007 --> 00:11:13,093
Zhongxiao Courtyard was truly the result of

128
00:11:13,487 --> 00:11:15,734
my years of hard work.

129
00:11:15,847 --> 00:11:17,534
It's a real shame to lose it.

130
00:11:18,408 --> 00:11:20,774
But you shouldn't

131
00:11:21,127 --> 00:11:22,453
let it get you down.

132
00:11:22,767 --> 00:11:24,414
It only got mixed up with

133
00:11:24,688 --> 00:11:26,134
He Bo's side of things.

134
00:11:28,247 --> 00:11:31,391
Just now, when I saw you drawing your bow,

135
00:11:31,607 --> 00:11:34,333
your hands looked weak and shaky.

136
00:11:35,208 --> 00:11:36,431
What's wrong?

137
00:11:37,568 --> 00:11:41,254
Have you still not recovered from the arrow Lady Huo shot you with?

138
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,070
It's much better now. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness.

139
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,887
That girl from the Huo family is really something.

140
00:11:51,967 --> 00:11:53,374
She actually dared

141
00:11:54,487 --> 00:11:56,333
to run away from the marriage I set her up with.

142
00:11:56,967 --> 00:11:58,774
She even took the command token

143
00:11:59,168 --> 00:12:00,693
and summoned the Guanghua Army.

144
00:12:01,543 --> 00:12:05,648
She didn't hold back against her own fiancé.

145
00:12:05,847 --> 00:12:07,070
She...

146
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,800
She's just a little immature, that's all.

147
00:12:08,891 --> 00:12:10,114
Immature?

148
00:12:14,145 --> 00:12:17,768
You know how important this marriage is.

149
00:12:18,928 --> 00:12:20,774
The Linglong Eye from the Huo family

150
00:12:21,088 --> 00:12:24,453
must never fall into anyone else's hands.

151
00:12:25,487 --> 00:12:26,710
That arrow she shot

152
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,983
pretty much shattered all my wishful thinking.

153
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:32,960
Don't worry, Your Highness.

154
00:12:33,088 --> 00:12:35,053
Even if I have to tie her up, I'll bring her back.

155
00:12:35,211 --> 00:12:36,614
I'm marrying her, no matter what.

156
00:12:38,247 --> 00:12:39,470
Your Highness.

157
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,406
Your archery skills are truly unmatched in this world.

158
00:12:45,007 --> 00:12:46,614
You keep that one.

159
00:12:47,048 --> 00:12:48,647
It tastes best roasted over a fire.

160
00:12:48,727 --> 00:12:50,213
Thank you for the reward, Your Highness.

161
00:12:56,487 --> 00:12:59,933
Luckily, you weren't implicated in the He Bo matter.

162
00:13:00,288 --> 00:13:02,693
The fall of Zhongxiao Courtyard was my fault.

163
00:13:02,887 --> 00:13:05,333
I failed to guard that place for Your Highness.

164
00:13:05,647 --> 00:13:08,734
He Bo was just a brute.

165
00:13:09,127 --> 00:13:10,978
He has fallen, and so be it.

166
00:13:11,088 --> 00:13:12,374
But on your end,

167
00:13:12,847 --> 00:13:14,813
don't let anything else go wrong.

168
00:13:16,408 --> 00:13:18,053
With Zhan Zhao's abilities,

169
00:13:18,328 --> 00:13:20,853
he's probably already figured out

170
00:13:21,127 --> 00:13:22,734
some clues about you.

171
00:13:23,607 --> 00:13:26,414
Be extra careful.

172
00:13:28,727 --> 00:13:29,950
Yes, Your Highness.

173
00:13:47,688 --> 00:13:49,693
Greetings, Si Ming. I'm Tang Ji from the Tang Sect.

174
00:13:49,783 --> 00:13:51,340
(Tang Ji, Sect Leader of the Tang Sect)

175
00:13:52,247 --> 00:13:55,230
Why do you call for me in such a hurry?

176
00:14:12,928 --> 00:14:14,008
Si Ming,

177
00:14:14,088 --> 00:14:17,093
may I ask what you need from me?

178
00:14:42,847 --> 00:14:44,654
Since the Zhongxiao Courtyard case,

179
00:14:45,887 --> 00:14:48,431
has there been any movement in the Tang Sect or Tanxi Town?

180
00:14:50,048 --> 00:14:52,759
I'm not sure what kind of movement you mean, Si Ming.

181
00:14:53,367 --> 00:14:55,693
If Zhan Zhao wants to save that suicide squad,

182
00:14:56,887 --> 00:15:00,093
he'll definitely find a way to cure the Nightmare Sky poison first.

183
00:15:01,887 --> 00:15:03,128
Within Xiangyang's jurisdiction,

184
00:15:03,208 --> 00:15:06,453
there are only two families who are experts in poisons.

185
00:15:10,727 --> 00:15:13,047
What has your nephew been up to lately?

186
00:15:15,448 --> 00:15:16,671
He...

187
00:15:26,568 --> 00:15:28,573
A fish out of water is all riled up.

188
00:15:30,487 --> 00:15:31,710
Too bad,

189
00:15:32,247 --> 00:15:34,093
its living on borrowed time.

190
00:15:41,887 --> 00:15:43,294
Keep your people in line.

191
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:46,926
Make sure they keep their mouths shut.

192
00:15:50,528 --> 00:15:51,751
Yes, Si Ming.

193
00:16:02,337 --> 00:16:03,560
Anything else?

194
00:16:03,808 --> 00:16:05,031
Si Ming.

195
00:16:05,607 --> 00:16:08,911
Quite a few Tang Sect disciples have been arrested by the authorities.

196
00:16:09,831 --> 00:16:12,031
- Si Ming, could you...   - I can't save them.

197
00:16:12,727 --> 00:16:14,853
It's a turbulent time right now.

198
00:16:15,168 --> 00:16:16,836
You have plenty of people in the Tang Sect.

199
00:16:16,927 --> 00:16:18,150
Losing a few

200
00:16:18,688 --> 00:16:20,534
just proves their loyalty to their master.

201
00:16:31,048 --> 00:16:32,271
Yes, Si Ming.

202
00:17:09,088 --> 00:17:11,213
He is the murderer’s brother.

203
00:17:11,349 --> 00:17:13,774
The murderer’s brother? Then he can't be any good!

204
00:17:13,919 --> 00:17:15,471
Kick him out of our town!

205
00:17:15,562 --> 00:17:17,453
- Yes!   - He's the murderer’s brother!

206
00:17:18,288 --> 00:17:21,213
- You can tell he’s no good!   - Get out!

207
00:17:22,168 --> 00:17:23,328
Get out of our town!

208
00:17:23,408 --> 00:17:26,709
- No one from that family is any good.   - Get out of our town!

209
00:17:26,928 --> 00:17:28,947
- Yes!   - Kick him out of our town!

210
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,160
(Anfu Inn)

211
00:18:21,864 --> 00:18:23,871
- Sorry.   - Thank you.

212
00:18:25,496 --> 00:18:27,292
- Tang?   - Ling Long?

213
00:18:46,016 --> 00:18:47,239
All these years,

214
00:18:48,808 --> 00:18:51,214
I've always hoped to see you in my dreams.

215
00:18:52,367 --> 00:18:54,014
But you never showed up.

216
00:18:54,464 --> 00:18:57,694
Now you suddenly appear, but you won't say a word.

217
00:18:58,167 --> 00:19:00,698
What do you really want? Say something!

218
00:19:02,807 --> 00:19:05,093
Are you here because of that case from back then?

219
00:19:06,207 --> 00:19:07,567
Say something!

220
00:19:07,647 --> 00:19:09,053
Talk to me!

221
00:19:09,488 --> 00:19:10,974
Say it!

222
00:19:25,728 --> 00:19:27,107
I'm basically half a doctor myself.

223
00:19:27,198 --> 00:19:29,499
I've told you I'm fine. Why don't you believe me?

224
00:19:29,624 --> 00:19:31,413
I just had a nightmare, that's all.

225
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,383
Earlier, I forgot to introduce everyone in the rush.

226
00:19:43,647 --> 00:19:46,254
He is the Southern Hero, Zhan Zhao. And he is the Sleek Rat, Bai Yu Tang.

227
00:19:46,647 --> 00:19:48,869
And he is the young master of the Tang Sect, Tang Tian Hao.

228
00:19:50,647 --> 00:19:52,686
Tang, are you here

229
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,880
because you've finished making the antidote for Nightmare Sky?

230
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,974
I did come here for that reason today.

231
00:19:57,248 --> 00:19:58,471
But...

232
00:19:59,016 --> 00:20:00,148
I'm sorry.

233
00:20:00,367 --> 00:20:01,774
I don't have the antidote yet.

234
00:20:09,288 --> 00:20:12,174
This medicine can't remove the poison,

235
00:20:12,728 --> 00:20:14,495
but it can suppress the hallucinations.

236
00:20:15,167 --> 00:20:17,133
It'll ease the pain for those poisoned.

237
00:20:23,248 --> 00:20:24,853
Thank you for helping us, Tang.

238
00:20:25,167 --> 00:20:27,502
I didn't really do much. No need to thank me.

239
00:20:27,647 --> 00:20:29,093
If even you can't help,

240
00:20:30,887 --> 00:20:35,031
does it mean we have to find the one who made the poison to neutralize it?

241
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,649
We'll help you figure something out.

242
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,630
Tang, I have one more favor to ask.

243
00:20:55,647 --> 00:20:56,934
He'll just read your pulse.

244
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,218
Do you really want me to fight you over this?

245
00:21:01,167 --> 00:21:03,934
Please check on Bai to see if he has been poisoned by Nightmare Sky.

246
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,366
He does have Nightmare Sky in his system.

247
00:21:12,687 --> 00:21:14,014
But he's not poisoned by it.

248
00:21:15,248 --> 00:21:18,734
Nightmare Sky won't threaten his life. But it will cause hallucinations.

249
00:21:19,279 --> 00:21:21,811
In another two days, once the poison is out of his system,

250
00:21:21,968 --> 00:21:23,388
the hallucinations will disappear.

251
00:21:23,488 --> 00:21:25,893
See? I told you I was fine.

252
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,759
Didn't you say before that the herbal medicine you took when you were young

253
00:21:28,850 --> 00:21:30,336
could neutralize the Nightmare Sky poison?

254
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,720
I've also taken plenty of rare herbs and strange plants myself.

255
00:21:32,805 --> 00:21:34,165
Why don't we compare what we've tried?

256
00:21:34,335 --> 00:21:36,733
Let's try to recall. Maybe we'll figure out the antidote.

257
00:21:36,927 --> 00:21:40,093
You didn't get poisoned, not because you ate rare herbs,

258
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,560
but because you naturally have a body that's immune to all poisons.

259
00:21:42,670 --> 00:21:43,893
Immune to all poisons?

260
00:21:44,048 --> 00:21:46,327
As far as I know, people who are immune to all poisons

261
00:21:46,418 --> 00:21:48,851
either practiced some strange and dangerous martial arts,

262
00:21:48,942 --> 00:21:52,068
or turned themselves into poison men. Fighting poison with poison.

263
00:21:54,088 --> 00:21:56,537
But people like that usually look pretty strange.

264
00:21:56,628 --> 00:21:58,722
Ling Long, there are some who don't need to take such paths

265
00:21:58,813 --> 00:22:00,830
to become immune to all poisons.

266
00:22:01,048 --> 00:22:02,573
In Tanxi, not far from Xiangyang,

267
00:22:02,968 --> 00:22:04,560
there's a famous Jin family of miracle healers.

268
00:22:04,662 --> 00:22:06,888
They have the Healing Blood passed down through generations.

269
00:22:06,968 --> 00:22:08,809
That's right. It's said the Jin family

270
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,477
has a family secret water-based remedy.

271
00:22:10,568 --> 00:22:12,190
After every child in the family is born,

272
00:22:12,281 --> 00:22:13,730
they must drink it before they turn seven.

273
00:22:13,947 --> 00:22:15,170
And they bathe in it as well.

274
00:22:16,008 --> 00:22:17,231
Over time,

275
00:22:17,488 --> 00:22:19,978
it protects them from disease and makes them immune to all poisons.

276
00:22:20,248 --> 00:22:22,248
This formula was originally meant to protect physicians

277
00:22:22,328 --> 00:22:23,523
while they gathered herbs

278
00:22:23,614 --> 00:22:26,070
from poisonous insects, snakes, or scorpions.

279
00:22:27,327 --> 00:22:31,413
No wonder you were so sure the Jin family could neutralize the poison

280
00:22:31,889 --> 00:22:33,526
when you took Zhan to them before this.

281
00:22:33,887 --> 00:22:36,014
And you know a lot about medicine yourself.

282
00:22:36,905 --> 00:22:38,465
Your older brother is Jin Xue Wen, isn't he?

283
00:22:38,728 --> 00:22:41,481
When we first met, you said your name was Jin Mao Shu.

284
00:22:41,609 --> 00:22:42,934
I just made that up on the spot.

285
00:22:43,288 --> 00:22:44,408
Besides,

286
00:22:44,528 --> 00:22:47,322
do you think there's only one Jin family from Tanxi Town in the world?

287
00:22:47,413 --> 00:22:48,813
I'm not related to that family at all.

288
00:22:48,904 --> 00:22:50,888
And I don't want to waste any more words on this.

289
00:22:50,968 --> 00:22:53,191
All I care about now is the antidote for Nightmare Sky.

290
00:22:57,224 --> 00:22:58,447
Tang,

291
00:22:58,847 --> 00:23:01,494
- if you had more time...   - It's not a matter of time.

292
00:23:01,808 --> 00:23:03,937
This is as far as I can help. Because...

293
00:23:06,127 --> 00:23:07,350
Because

294
00:23:07,528 --> 00:23:10,494
the person who made this poison is more capable than I am.

295
00:23:10,687 --> 00:23:12,534
I'm not his match.

296
00:23:15,872 --> 00:23:17,118
No matter how much you deny it,

297
00:23:17,564 --> 00:23:20,774
the Healing Blood in your veins is proof you're from the Jin family.

298
00:23:21,176 --> 00:23:22,501
If you really want to save people,

299
00:23:22,752 --> 00:23:24,317
why not just ask the Jin family for help?

300
00:23:35,968 --> 00:23:37,014
Zhan?

301
00:23:38,297 --> 00:23:40,783
Why have you come to see me alone?

302
00:23:40,978 --> 00:23:42,464
I'm here to ask you for a favor, Tang.

303
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,688
If you find any clues while making the antidote,

304
00:23:45,768 --> 00:23:47,174
please let me know.

305
00:23:47,850 --> 00:23:49,315
What are you trying to say?

306
00:23:49,456 --> 00:23:50,679
Are you saying

307
00:23:51,111 --> 00:23:53,077
I'm hiding something from you?

308
00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:57,005
Nightmare Sky concerns many lives.

309
00:23:57,607 --> 00:24:00,231
You're a good man. You wouldn't just stand by and do nothing.

310
00:24:01,847 --> 00:24:05,140
If you already noticed earlier that I was hiding something,

311
00:24:05,407 --> 00:24:07,573
why didn't you call me out on it?

312
00:24:09,528 --> 00:24:12,647
You and Lady Huo have been close friends for years.

313
00:24:16,008 --> 00:24:18,551
Thank you for saving my dignity in front of Ling Long.

314
00:24:19,968 --> 00:24:21,573
But as for the Nightmare Sky matter,

315
00:24:22,568 --> 00:24:24,573
I really can't say much more.

316
00:24:25,008 --> 00:24:27,454
Please be understanding. Although I'm Ling Long's friend,

317
00:24:28,407 --> 00:24:29,974
I'm also the young master of the Tang Sect.

318
00:24:30,151 --> 00:24:31,711
As the young master of the Tang Sect,

319
00:24:31,802 --> 00:24:33,489
one day, you'll have to take over as sect leader.

320
00:24:34,569 --> 00:24:35,792
Tang,

321
00:24:36,647 --> 00:24:39,471
do you really understand what kind of sect you're about to inherit?

322
00:24:43,008 --> 00:24:44,494
You're really not good at lying.

323
00:24:45,568 --> 00:24:46,791
The Tang I know

324
00:24:47,248 --> 00:24:49,494
would never admit he's not as skilled as someone else.

325
00:24:52,887 --> 00:24:55,211
Sect Leader Tang wouldn't let you help, right?

326
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:00,991
He definitely didn't want you coming to me either.

327
00:25:01,583 --> 00:25:02,806
But you still came.

328
00:25:05,887 --> 00:25:08,551
You're kind by nature and are always sincere with people.

329
00:25:08,927 --> 00:25:10,254
You're way better than your uncle.

330
00:25:12,407 --> 00:25:13,653
I'm not as good as you say.

331
00:25:14,127 --> 00:25:15,350
You must also know

332
00:25:16,367 --> 00:25:18,053
that your uncle is leading the Tang Sect

333
00:25:18,489 --> 00:25:19,766
down a path of no return.

334
00:25:27,008 --> 00:25:28,231
What can I do about it?

335
00:25:29,118 --> 00:25:30,604
I was born into the Tang family.

336
00:25:31,207 --> 00:25:34,174
Just like you, who were born to inherit the Linglong Eye.

337
00:25:34,408 --> 00:25:35,814
Some things are just fate.

338
00:25:36,207 --> 00:25:37,430
We don't get to choose.

339
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,231
- There's no choice.   - It's not the same.

340
00:25:40,568 --> 00:25:41,791
In my heart,

341
00:25:42,647 --> 00:25:43,997
as long as you don't accept your fate,

342
00:25:44,088 --> 00:25:45,573
nothing is truly set in stone.

343
00:25:51,295 --> 00:25:52,494
Ling Long,

344
00:25:52,968 --> 00:25:55,824
I really envy and admire you.

345
00:25:55,915 --> 00:25:57,161
You dare to live as you wish,

346
00:25:57,815 --> 00:25:59,038
and be your own master.

347
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,853
Although I don't think I can change the Tang Sect's fate on my own,

348
00:26:06,207 --> 00:26:07,573
I'm still willing to try.

349
00:26:12,190 --> 00:26:13,413
When I was making the antidote,

350
00:26:14,048 --> 00:26:16,471
I realized this Nightmare Sky seemed familiar.

351
00:26:16,647 --> 00:26:18,728
So I checked the Tang Sect's Compendium of Poisons.

352
00:26:18,808 --> 00:26:20,471
And sure enough, 15 years ago,

353
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,885
there was a poison called Seven-Day Dream, just like Nightmare Sky.

354
00:26:24,063 --> 00:26:25,789
Both are addictive and hallucinogenic.

355
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:27,281
To make Seven-Day Dream,

356
00:26:27,372 --> 00:26:29,673
you have to add an ingredient that makes people lose their minds,

357
00:26:29,764 --> 00:26:30,987
like Muyan flower pollen.

358
00:26:31,288 --> 00:26:33,705
Then you add Bone-Eating Grass, Red Sand, and other herbs as support.

359
00:26:34,088 --> 00:26:36,095
All these ingredients are highly toxic by themselves.

360
00:26:36,186 --> 00:26:38,289
When you mix them together, they react with each other.

361
00:26:38,380 --> 00:26:40,934
Even if you add all kinds of antidotes to suppress the toxins,

362
00:26:41,248 --> 00:26:42,471
it still doesn't help.

363
00:26:42,607 --> 00:26:44,133
Anyone who takes Seven-Day Dream

364
00:26:44,607 --> 00:26:46,494
will die within seven days, no question.

365
00:26:54,728 --> 00:26:56,926
Uncle...

366
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,480
Uncle, why is it that Nightmare Sky has ingredients so similar

367
00:27:01,577 --> 00:27:02,991
to Seven-Day Dream?

368
00:27:04,407 --> 00:27:05,720
Could it be...

369
00:27:10,528 --> 00:27:11,751
Tell me.

370
00:27:12,488 --> 00:27:16,294
Compared to Seven-Day Dream, what makes Nightmare Sky superior?

371
00:27:18,528 --> 00:27:19,893
The person who made Nightmare Sky

372
00:27:20,248 --> 00:27:22,893
gave up adding antidotes to suppress the various toxins,

373
00:27:23,088 --> 00:27:25,985
and instead used Luohui, a deadly poison.

374
00:27:26,089 --> 00:27:27,809
Luohui is extremely toxic on its own.

375
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,432
But because the proportions are just right,

376
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,408
its toxicity suppresses the excessive reactions of other poisons.

377
00:27:32,507 --> 00:27:35,133
And the other poisons also suppress Luohui's toxicity.

378
00:27:35,447 --> 00:27:38,053
That's the brilliance of Nightmare Sky.

379
00:27:38,328 --> 00:27:39,551
So do you think

380
00:27:40,288 --> 00:27:42,910
anyone in the Tang Sect, including you or me,

381
00:27:43,367 --> 00:27:45,534
could make something like this?

382
00:27:52,647 --> 00:27:53,893
Then Nightmare Sky

383
00:27:54,447 --> 00:27:57,974
has nothing to do with the Tang Sect at all.

384
00:28:02,927 --> 00:28:04,150
Uncle! This...

385
00:28:08,232 --> 00:28:09,455
Uncle.

386
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,239
Too many lives are on the line.

387
00:28:12,330 --> 00:28:14,250
You're not related to those people at all.

388
00:28:14,341 --> 00:28:17,254
Their lives have nothing to do with you.

389
00:28:19,904 --> 00:28:21,749
Stop what you're doing right now.

390
00:28:22,522 --> 00:28:25,311
Do not meet Huo girl and her companions ever again.

391
00:28:27,008 --> 00:28:28,231
Do you hear me?

392
00:28:31,687 --> 00:28:33,694
You've always been timid and afraid of trouble.

393
00:28:34,528 --> 00:28:36,375
Yet you insist on getting involved in this mess.

394
00:28:37,207 --> 00:28:39,649
My uncle said no one in the Tang Sect could make this poison.

395
00:28:39,740 --> 00:28:40,963
That's true.

396
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,087
But whoever made it must be connected to the Tang Sect.

397
00:28:46,847 --> 00:28:48,870
I've told you everything I know.

398
00:28:51,528 --> 00:28:54,000
I also know the Tang Sect has sided with the wrong people.

399
00:28:54,167 --> 00:28:55,390
We've done a lot of bad things.

400
00:28:56,207 --> 00:28:57,653
If there's ever a reckoning,

401
00:28:58,728 --> 00:29:01,645
I hope Zhan will remember what I've said today

402
00:29:01,736 --> 00:29:02,959
and show some leniency.

403
00:29:05,328 --> 00:29:06,551
You have my word.

404
00:29:07,288 --> 00:29:09,294
But there's still something I don't understand.

405
00:29:10,288 --> 00:29:13,416
The person you mentioned, the one you shouldn't have sided with, who is it?

406
00:29:13,575 --> 00:29:15,613
I don't usually get involved in sect affairs.

407
00:29:16,008 --> 00:29:19,390
But sometimes, I'll overhear visitors of the Tang Sect talking to my uncle.

408
00:29:19,568 --> 00:29:21,277
They call him Si Ming.

409
00:29:44,127 --> 00:29:45,694
You two are sneaking around behind my back.

410
00:29:46,488 --> 00:29:49,133
Are you plotting how to set me up or something again?

411
00:29:49,847 --> 00:29:51,283
We just went to buy you some wine.

412
00:29:53,008 --> 00:29:55,367
It's the famous wine from Xiangyang you mentioned last time.

413
00:29:55,447 --> 00:29:56,670
From Liuke Hall.

414
00:30:02,407 --> 00:30:04,444
The poison master connected to the Tang Sect

415
00:30:04,535 --> 00:30:06,182
must be Jin Zhen Ping, right?

416
00:30:07,088 --> 00:30:08,454
You haven't forgotten

417
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,360
that after we left the Jin family estate,

418
00:30:10,451 --> 00:30:12,402
the Tang Sect immediately went after us, have you?

419
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,040
What's wrong?

420
00:30:16,207 --> 00:30:18,893
Don't believe the Jin family would get involved in making poison?

421
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,765
If you want to cure poison, you have to learn about toxins first.

422
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,974
Kids in the Jin family start learning about poisons from an early age.

423
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,480
They're already handling poisonous insects and herbs at seven or eight.

424
00:30:28,582 --> 00:30:29,805
It's totally normal.

425
00:30:33,607 --> 00:30:34,853
Over 10 years ago,

426
00:30:35,367 --> 00:30:37,729
Jin Zhen Ping was probably only in his twenties.

427
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,751
Could he really have made such a powerful poison?

428
00:30:40,889 --> 00:30:42,317
Although I don't like him,

429
00:30:42,607 --> 00:30:45,333
I can't deny he's diligent and dedicated.

430
00:30:45,633 --> 00:30:46,775
At 14,

431
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,560
he created Qingyin Powder, which can neutralize the Plum Rain Miasma.

432
00:30:49,641 --> 00:30:51,893
At 15, he was already running a clinic.

433
00:30:52,407 --> 00:30:55,214
By 28, he became the head of the Jin family.

434
00:30:58,488 --> 00:31:01,910
Do you think Jin Zhen Ping is a good man because he saved your life?

435
00:31:02,057 --> 00:31:04,175
I can guarantee that in the Jin family,

436
00:31:04,266 --> 00:31:06,575
the decision to use Naiheyin Pill to save you was definitely not his.

437
00:31:06,666 --> 00:31:07,889
It was my fourth aunt.

438
00:31:09,728 --> 00:31:10,847
Before this,

439
00:31:10,927 --> 00:31:13,214
you didn't want to admit your connection to the Jin family.

440
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:14,983
Is it because

441
00:31:15,192 --> 00:31:17,774
they were involved in your brother's case?

442
00:31:19,367 --> 00:31:21,813
Don't take it to heart about what the Yicheng County Magistrate said.

443
00:31:22,288 --> 00:31:24,974
After you left that day, I questioned him a bit more.

444
00:31:25,607 --> 00:31:27,732
He actually knows very little about your brother's case.

445
00:31:27,856 --> 00:31:30,165
So his words can't prove anything.

446
00:31:31,447 --> 00:31:33,373
The Tang Sect's young master mentioned Si Ming.

447
00:31:33,847 --> 00:31:36,694
And Si Ming knows about your brother's case.

448
00:31:37,288 --> 00:31:39,254
Plus, the Tang Sect and the Jin family are connected.

449
00:31:40,447 --> 00:31:43,613
I'm starting to think Si Ming, the Tang Sect, the Jin family,

450
00:31:43,887 --> 00:31:47,014
and your brother's case are all tied together.

451
00:31:51,687 --> 00:31:52,910
Right now,

452
00:31:53,288 --> 00:31:54,734
the only one who can cure Nightmare Sky

453
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,600
is probably the Jin family.

454
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,216
For the sake of your sworn brothers' lives, and for your brother's case,

455
00:32:01,527 --> 00:32:02,951
we have to make this trip.

456
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,207
You've carried this burden for 15 years.

457
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,487
How about we help you carry it for a while?

458
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,464
Tomorrow, let's head to Tanxi Town.

459
00:32:25,367 --> 00:32:28,491
I'll tell you everything about my brother's case, no holding back.

460
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:35,926
Don't get your hopes up just yet.

461
00:32:37,303 --> 00:32:39,269
If the Jin family really is involved with them,

462
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,232
they'll definitely get wind of it ahead of time and be ready for us.

463
00:32:42,323 --> 00:32:45,390
Jin Zhen Ping probably won't even let us past the front gate.

464
00:32:46,768 --> 00:32:48,613
We need to plan this out carefully.

465
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:57,805
Have you noticed

466
00:32:58,007 --> 00:33:01,174
the inn has been packed lately with guests from out of town?

467
00:33:04,119 --> 00:33:07,494
It's because the triennial Suwen Tournament is about to start.

468
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,721
The Suwen Tournament is an internal Jin family event

469
00:33:09,812 --> 00:33:11,977
to select their most outstanding disciples.

470
00:33:12,383 --> 00:33:15,362
Whoever wins first place gets to learn

471
00:33:15,453 --> 00:33:18,183
the Jin family's secret technique, Tiangen Yueku acupuncture technique.

472
00:33:19,071 --> 00:33:22,580
By then, everyone from every medical family in Xiangzhou,

473
00:33:22,728 --> 00:33:24,287
every sect that practices medicine or poison,

474
00:33:24,447 --> 00:33:27,373
and all the Jin family's friends and relatives will be there to witness it.

475
00:33:27,591 --> 00:33:29,958
They'll all be there for the tournament.

476
00:33:31,585 --> 00:33:32,808
This

477
00:33:33,319 --> 00:33:36,863
is our best shot at getting into the Jin estate.

478
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,401
My father and Jin Zhen Ping's father are brothers.

479
00:34:00,496 --> 00:34:01,741
As they were born to a concubine,

480
00:34:02,048 --> 00:34:04,590
our families split off early on and moved out of the Jin family.

481
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,590
At first, my whole family lived comfortably with our basic needs covered.

482
00:34:08,807 --> 00:34:10,967
But when I was three, my parents passed away.

483
00:34:11,088 --> 00:34:14,110
After that, it was just me, my brother, and an old servant left at home.

484
00:34:14,232 --> 00:34:16,881
We got by on what our parents left behind for us.

485
00:34:21,984 --> 00:34:23,590
Is this the house you grew up in?

486
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,560
(Fifteen Years Ago)

487
00:34:56,647 --> 00:34:59,231
Where's your brother? Is he not back yet?

488
00:35:01,328 --> 00:35:04,694
When Nine was little, the old clan leader used to praise his talent.

489
00:35:05,127 --> 00:35:06,350
But now,

490
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,851
he's just throwing all that talent away.

491
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,641
Yesterday, he told me he'd start working hard from now on.

492
00:35:12,720 --> 00:35:14,285
How did he change his mind so fast?

493
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,403
His head is full of nothing but dirty thoughts.

494
00:35:18,541 --> 00:35:20,348
How could he ever practice medicine?

495
00:35:21,583 --> 00:35:22,806
What are you doing here?

496
00:35:28,552 --> 00:35:30,159
The Suwen Tournament is about to start.

497
00:35:30,361 --> 00:35:32,361
The clan leader checked the registration list

498
00:35:32,452 --> 00:35:34,098
and didn't see Jin Xue Wen's name.

499
00:35:34,224 --> 00:35:35,447
He sent me here to find out

500
00:35:36,207 --> 00:35:37,734
if he'll be signing up or not?

501
00:35:38,647 --> 00:35:41,214
Do you think I wanted to come here?

502
00:35:44,968 --> 00:35:46,453
Jin Xue Wen isn't here.

503
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,830
Then I'll go back and tell the clan leader he's not participating.

504
00:35:51,247 --> 00:35:52,559
If he really does show up,

505
00:35:52,650 --> 00:35:54,856
he'll just bring shame to the Jin family.

506
00:35:59,328 --> 00:36:01,538
I'll find him. You just go back to the Jin estate and wait.

507
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,657
My brother will definitely be there at the Suwen Tournament.

508
00:36:07,273 --> 00:36:08,798
That little brat.

509
00:36:24,327 --> 00:36:25,550
Bai?

510
00:36:25,641 --> 00:36:27,807
Lady Qiu Chan, where is he?

511
00:36:29,008 --> 00:36:30,773
Who left the door open?

512
00:36:31,199 --> 00:36:32,422
It's cold.

513
00:36:38,888 --> 00:36:40,111
Who is it?

514
00:36:40,636 --> 00:36:42,489
(Jin Xue Wen)

515
00:36:42,727 --> 00:36:44,608
- Bai.   - Don't call me Bai.

516
00:36:45,008 --> 00:36:47,460
Bai.

517
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,680
Bai.

518
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,617
Bai.

519
00:36:52,708 --> 00:36:54,485
Wait up, Bai.

520
00:36:55,620 --> 00:36:56,950
Bai.

521
00:36:58,488 --> 00:37:00,588
You came out here dressed like that? Aren't you cold?

522
00:37:01,687 --> 00:37:03,013
Someone from the Jin family came by.

523
00:37:03,568 --> 00:37:05,680
He asked if you'll be joining this year's Suwen Tournament.

524
00:37:05,771 --> 00:37:07,720
Yes. Of course I will.

525
00:37:07,811 --> 00:37:09,132
We'll go and sign up right now.

526
00:37:09,888 --> 00:37:11,727
My good little brother, don't worry.

527
00:37:11,807 --> 00:37:13,910
With my skills, I'll definitely come out as the victor.

528
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,080
What are you even using to compete in the Suwen Tournament?

529
00:37:16,168 --> 00:37:19,294
How long has it been since you picked up a needle or touched any herbs?

530
00:37:19,647 --> 00:37:21,217
Is that any way to talk to your brother?

531
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,352
Next time you see Yan Er from the front street, don't go chatting her up.

532
00:37:24,457 --> 00:37:26,930
- She said you were harassing her.   - Harassing her?

533
00:37:27,240 --> 00:37:28,920
I just said she was pretty. Was that harassment?

534
00:37:29,026 --> 00:37:31,471
If you don't plan on marrying her and making her my sister-in-law,

535
00:37:31,647 --> 00:37:33,254
then stop saying things like that.

536
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,635
- Bai!   - When I got home that day,

537
00:37:36,888 --> 00:37:39,533
my brother promised me he'd get ready for the Suwen Tournament.

538
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,103
But then...

539
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,151
The county officers found bloody clothes and a murder weapon in our house.

540
00:37:54,488 --> 00:37:57,254
They decided it was my brother who killed the girl next door.

541
00:37:57,767 --> 00:38:00,928
After that, my brother caught the plague while he was being interrogated,

542
00:38:01,008 --> 00:38:02,271
His life was hanging by a thread.

543
00:38:02,408 --> 00:38:04,591
No matter what we did, the authorities wouldn't let us see him.

544
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,509
My brother was seriously ill.

545
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:10,846
So I knelt in front of the Jin family's door,

546
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,611
begging them to use the Naiheyin Pill to save my brother.

547
00:38:14,024 --> 00:38:15,511
The case wasn't even closed yet.

548
00:38:16,087 --> 00:38:17,494
But in the Jin family's eyes,

549
00:38:18,288 --> 00:38:19,853
my brother was already seen as

550
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:22,623
a murderer who brought shame to their family.

551
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,030
It wasn't worth using the Naiheyin Pill to save his life.

552
00:38:30,024 --> 00:38:32,893
The next day, I got the news that my brother had died.

553
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:35,783
Zhan Zhao,

554
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,288
the day I sent you to the Jin family, it was to save you,

555
00:38:39,385 --> 00:38:40,804
but also to get back at the Jin family.

556
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,051
Just thinking about Jin Zhen Ping

557
00:38:44,142 --> 00:38:46,103
having to use his precious family treasure

558
00:38:46,194 --> 00:38:47,880
to save a total stranger,

559
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,086
honestly, that made me feel great.

560
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,893
The plague in Tanxi Town back then was really severe.

561
00:38:57,159 --> 00:38:59,893
My aunt left Linglong Manor to make her own way in the world.

562
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:02,885
But in Tanxi Town,

563
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,263
she caught the plague and died.

564
00:39:06,099 --> 00:39:07,156
Your aunt?

565
00:39:07,247 --> 00:39:08,574
I was too young back then.

566
00:39:09,287 --> 00:39:10,973
I didn't understand what death meant.

567
00:39:13,008 --> 00:39:15,920
I thought if I prayed every day,

568
00:39:16,807 --> 00:39:18,030
she'd come back.

569
00:39:22,287 --> 00:39:23,497
I'm fine.

570
00:39:23,968 --> 00:39:27,254
It just came to mind after Bai

571
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,063
mentioned the plague.

572
00:39:32,848 --> 00:39:34,534
The plague was so severe back then.

573
00:39:35,727 --> 00:39:37,214
But how come I never heard about it?

574
00:39:37,392 --> 00:39:40,111
That plague back then was terrifying to everyone.

575
00:39:40,273 --> 00:39:43,255
But Jin Zhen Ping quickly came up with a cure for it.

576
00:39:43,551 --> 00:39:45,763
Because of that, he won first place at the Suwen Tournament.

577
00:39:45,854 --> 00:39:47,077
He became famous in Tanxi Town.

578
00:39:47,744 --> 00:39:49,400
The plague never spread outside Tanxi Town.

579
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,166
So not many people have heard about it.

580
00:39:55,103 --> 00:39:56,326
Come back!

581
00:40:01,175 --> 00:40:02,398
You got here really fast.

582
00:40:03,839 --> 00:40:05,062
It's you again.

583
00:40:05,336 --> 00:40:06,535
Why did you run?

584
00:40:06,687 --> 00:40:07,910
Do you still remember me?

585
00:40:08,175 --> 00:40:09,398
Yes, I remember.

586
00:40:11,199 --> 00:40:14,571
Except for what the hero said, I don't remember anything else.

587
00:40:14,705 --> 00:40:16,310
Looks like fate keeps bringing us together.

588
00:40:16,928 --> 00:40:19,694
Alright, do me a favor and give Jin Zhen Ping another message.

589
00:40:19,816 --> 00:40:22,158
Tell him I'll be waiting for him at Cuixi Forest behind the mountain.

590
00:40:23,312 --> 00:40:24,475
Go on.

591
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:25,943
Wait.

592
00:40:27,824 --> 00:40:29,047
Add one more thing.

593
00:40:29,368 --> 00:40:30,734
If he doesn't show up,

594
00:40:31,016 --> 00:40:33,468
I'll find his son again and play grass-fighting with him.

595
00:40:36,055 --> 00:40:39,976
Cuixi Forest behind the mountain.

596
00:40:55,488 --> 00:40:56,711
Are you Ling Long?

597
00:41:04,384 --> 00:41:06,143
Master!

598
00:41:06,234 --> 00:41:07,521
He's back!

599
00:41:08,296 --> 00:41:09,519
He's back.

600
00:41:09,881 --> 00:41:11,104
Make yourself clear.

601
00:41:12,071 --> 00:41:14,735
The young man in white who kidnapped the young master before this

602
00:41:15,127 --> 00:41:16,813
went to the old house on Huaihua Alley.

603
00:41:19,856 --> 00:41:21,622
If he insists on coming here,

604
00:41:21,904 --> 00:41:23,127
just tell him

605
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:24,840
I'm out on a house call.

606
00:41:24,931 --> 00:41:26,644
And the Fourth Lady went to her mother's place.

607
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,023
No one's home.

608
00:41:28,607 --> 00:41:29,830
Tell him to leave.

609
00:41:29,928 --> 00:41:32,774
He said he'll be waiting for you at Cuixi Forest.

610
00:41:32,888 --> 00:41:35,067
He wants you to go right away. Otherwise, he'll

611
00:41:35,448 --> 00:41:38,134
find the young master and play grass-fighting with him again.

612
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,470
When I saw you just now, I felt a real sense of closeness.

613
00:41:54,207 --> 00:41:55,430
Yes.

614
00:41:55,689 --> 00:41:58,734
When you were little, I used to visit Linglong Manor all the time.

615
00:41:59,687 --> 00:42:01,103
I still remember back then,

616
00:42:01,194 --> 00:42:02,913
you were always glued to your aunt.

617
00:42:03,004 --> 00:42:05,231
Whatever she did, she had to take you with her.

618
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:08,206
Later, I moved away.

619
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:10,686
So I stopped visiting your family as much after that.

620
00:42:13,519 --> 00:42:14,742
Ling Long,

621
00:42:15,215 --> 00:42:16,821
I'm two years older than your aunt.

622
00:42:17,768 --> 00:42:19,054
If you want,

623
00:42:19,568 --> 00:42:21,413
you can call me Aunt from now on.

624
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:24,863
Aunt.

625
00:42:25,864 --> 00:42:27,142
Come inside and have a seat.

626
00:42:36,208 --> 00:42:39,134
Your uncle passed away last month.

627
00:42:39,519 --> 00:42:41,990
This is just a small villa he bought.

628
00:42:42,215 --> 00:42:43,741
So we didn't hold a funeral here.

629
00:42:44,072 --> 00:42:45,496
We just set up a memorial hall.

630
00:42:45,864 --> 00:42:47,110
Did Uncle die of illness?

631
00:42:47,607 --> 00:42:50,111
How come no one in the martial world ever mentioned it?

632
00:42:50,511 --> 00:42:51,734
Illness?

633
00:42:53,296 --> 00:42:54,941
He wasn't that lucky.

634
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,120
Life in the martial world is full of fighting and killing.

635
00:42:58,199 --> 00:42:59,526
You are always living on edge.

636
00:43:00,231 --> 00:43:01,953
One day, you take someone's life,

637
00:43:02,111 --> 00:43:05,013
the next day, someone else will come for yours.

638
00:43:05,408 --> 00:43:06,893
My uncle was murdered?
