[Episode 5]

What did you feed him?

Linglong Honey.

It may not save his life,

but it will at least ease his pain.

What good will that do?

The Old Souls at First Glance
has already reached his marrow.

Then what should we do?

You're so worried about him?

Give me a hand.

I've tightened the Iron Shackles
on him another notch,

buying us two more days.

There might still be a chance.

Can you save him?

I'm not that capable.

I can't neutralize the poison,
but I know who can.

- Who?
- The Jin family.

You mean the Jin family in Tanxi Town,
the one that emulates Dong Feng

by planting 10,000 apricot trees?

- Let's go to the Jin family.
- You're coming too?

Don't get me wrong.

I don't mind.

I've just heard that what he gave you
is very important.

For something that important, every extra
moment on the journey increases the risk.

Besides, who knows what he'll think
when he wakes up

and finds you still by his side.

What's with that look?

Don't you trust me?
Would I harm my own brother-in-law?

Fine. We'll split up then.

I'll take the item to the capital.

You take him to the Jin family.

I'm not comfortable letting you
go to the capital alone.

Let me think about it.

Commander Shao.

We've searched every clinic
within a five-mile radius.

There's no sign of Zhan Zhao or the others.

But we just intercepted a suspicious carriage.

Is this your carriage?

No. We're heading home on urgent business.

We started with a donkey cart,

but we met some kind people on the way.

They traded their horse carriage
for our donkey cart.

That's how we reached the ferry so quickly.

What did they look like?

One was dressed in white.

And there was a young man in blue next to him.

Oh, right. There was another one
lying in the carriage.

He looked quite pale, probably ill.

But they said our matter
was more urgent than theirs--

Which way did they go?

They... said they had enemies pursuing them,

so they needed to hide in the mountains.

Go ahead and search.

Take your time searching the mountains.

You'll have your hands full.

Huo Xiao Mei is quite foolish.

She just handed his life over to me like that.

Right, Donkey?

[Tanxi Town]

Young Master, don't run.

Don't be naughty. Let's go.

- Get in the carriage.
- Let's go.

Careful, Young Master.

Careful.

The kite is flying so high!

I can make it fly even higher.

What a big hole!

Quick, let me take a look.

Hold this.

Your kite is broken?

Let me fix it for you.

Who are you?

Stay away from our young master.

You have a death wish!

Take a message to your master.

[Jin Zhen Ping, The Master of The Jin Family]

Master!

Master! Something terrible has happened!

[Xu An, The Butler of The Jin Family]
The two young masters have been kidnapped!

What?

That man tied up Fu Zi,
hid the two young masters,

and sent me back to deliver the message.

What does he look like?

Have you seen him before?

He looks like a man who knows the martial arts.

He also said that
if you stand by without helping,

you will never see your sons again.

Could it be someone who came to us
for medical treatment?

[Zhang, Widow of Fourth Uncle, The Jin Family]
Stand by without helping...

Zhen Ping, did you encounter
a difficult case today turned it away?

- No.
- Master! Master!

Quick, come and take a look.

A donkey cart has arrived at the gate.

It's carrying a man
with a large pool of blood beside it.

Master Jin is here.

Look at all that blood!

What a tragedy!

With so much blood,
how can he still be breathing?

Indeed.

If he isn't treated immediately,

he likely won't survive.

Chicken blood?

Why isn't he lending a hand?

Why isn't he saving him?

Let me see what's going on.

I'm afraid he's beyond help.

How come he's leaving?

Master Jin!

Do you intend to just ignore this?

With so much blood lost,
this man is probably hard to save.

Master Jin! Are you afraid that failure
to cure him will ruin your family's reputation?

- Exactly!
- This is turning a blind eye to peril!

How can he be like this?

- Indeed.
- Help me carry him inside.

Yes, sir.

Hurry, carry him in!

Everyone, please disperse.

How could our Jin family possibly
stand by and watch someone die?

Go back and tell Jin Zhen Ping this.

First, the man I sent over must be cured.

Of course,
I know his medical skills are mediocre,

and he might be at his wit's end.

But I know your Lament Pill
can bring the dead back to life.

Second, after saving that man,

at midnight, I want you to drive a carriage
and escort him out.

Park the carriage on the main road out of town.

Then leave immediately.

Third, don't report this to the authorities.

Don't play any tricks.

Every move you make is right under my nose.

Skeptical? You can let him try.

If you fail to meet any of these three points,

the lives of your family's
two young masters will be forfeit.

Do you understand?

Get lost.

Wait.

Open your eyes after 100 steps.

And don't look back once you do.

Otherwise...

Otherwise, someone else will come for you.

That person's martial arts
are superior to mine.

If she finds out the man I sent wasn't saved,

with her temper...

your entire family's lives might be over.

Understood. I won't open my eyes.

I'll open them after 100 steps.

After 100 steps.

No eye-opening! I-I-I'm not opening!

To the left!

Hurry up. Time waits for no one.

Okay, okay. I won't open eyes.

What are you playing at?

This man has not only been hit
by the Great Compassion Palm,

but also by the Xiuluo Cult's
Old Souls at First Glance.

Now, the poison has reached his marrow,
beyond redemption.

I've heard that Old Souls at First Glance
is refined from many potent toxins.

They coexist and depend on each other.

Taking a single antidote will have no effect.

If you take multiple antidotes,
they will likely cancel each other out,

or even create a new poison.

It would only cause more harm.

We could have used the Heavenly Root Moon Cave
to open his acupoints

and expel the poison through his blood.

But since he was poisoned too long ago,

it has reached his organs and marrow.

If he cannot endure the needles
during the process,

causing his vital energy to scatter
and the poison to attack the heart instantly,

then we would be powerless to save him.

Fourth Aunt,

it's not as simple as treating saving lives.

Do you know who he is?

Judging by his clothes,
he looks like a man who knows martial arts.

He is Zhan Zhao

from Kaifeng Prefecture.

How did you know that?

We cannot save this man.

But as physicians,
it's our duty to save the dying.

Moreover, the lives of your two children
are held in someone else's grip.

At worst, I'll report to the authorities.

They kidnapped my children in broad daylight.

I don't believe the officials
will just let this slide.

Master! Master!

Please save the young master!

The kidnapper sent me with a message.

Before midnight tonight,
you must save the man he brought here,

and I must drive the carriage
to take him outside the town.

He also said... said...

What else did he say?

He said,
"You must not report to the authorities,

otherwise...

I'll kill the two young masters."

This is outrageous.

I treat people to save them,
but there's no guarantee of success.

Besides, the poison has reached his marrow.

Even if I want to save him,

it depends on the King of the Hell!

The kidnapper also said,

"It doesn't matter
if the master's medical skills are mediocre."

He said you still have the Jin family's
the ancestral Lament Pill.

Lament Pill?

- Is that what he told you?
- Yes.

You may leave.

Yes, sir.

The Jin family's ancestral Lament Pill...

How did the kidnapper know about it?

Bears a grudge against our Jin family,

and also knows about Lament Pill.

This person hasn't shown his face,

yet he can manipulate our family so precisely.

Fourth Aunt.

Who else could it be but him?

What happened 15 years ago...
You haven't forgotten, have you?

15 years ago?

[The Jin Family]

Hurry up and leave.

The Chief has spoken.

He will never give you the Lament Pill.

Just give up on that idea.

Kneeling here your whole life won't help.

Then kneel if you will!

If it really is him,

then he must have come back for revenge!

Even if we save Zhan Zhao today,

he won't let it go!

He didn't make other demands,

it's not necessarily for revenge.

If the Chief Elder finds out
that we used the Lament Pill privately,

my time as the head of the family

will be over.

The Jin ancestors created Lament Pill
with the intent to save lives.

As long as we can save someone,

regardless of who it is...

we won't have failed this Lament Pill.

If the Elder insists on blaming us,

just say it was my decision.

Come with me to get the pill.

Wait! Fourth Aunt!

The formula for Lament Pill
has already been destroyed.

This is the very last pill.

I never expected it would be used
on an outsider.

Let's go.

Master! Master!

How did it go?

I did exactly as he said.

I drove the carriage and took them out of town.

Then... what about the children?

Where is the child?

I delivered the carriage and the person to him.

Did he go back on his word?

- I...
- What? Keep looking!

- Go now!
- Yes, sir.

Let's go.

- Father!
- Father!

Hey! You're back!

Thank goodness!

Tell me, are you hurt?

- No.
- We're not.

What did the person
who kidnapped you look like?

No one kidnapped us.

It was a man in white.

He took us to play by the lake.

He gave us delicious food.

He even played Herb Duel with us.

Fourth Aunt...

Who else could play Herb Duel but him?

Even if it was him,
he didn't harm the children.

Let's just let it go.

Come, let's eat something good.

- Let's go!
- Go!

- Go!
- Go!

You're awake.

May I ask who you are?

For now, I'm your savior.

As for the future, who can say?

- May I ask...
- I know what you want to ask.

Huo Ling Long is fine,

likely has taken that item out of Xiangzhou.

That's right.

We saved you and neutralized the poison.

Thank you for saving my life.

May I ask, are you a friend of Huo?

Huo?

She is a young lady, through and through.

You traveled with her all this way
and didn't even realize?

They came really fast.

They're from the Tang Sect.

I'll handle this fight for you.

Can't let you get injured again
because of these few people.

Otherwise,
when will I get my fair duel with you?

Lend me your sword.

What a powerful Cushion Palm.

Indeed invulnerable.

Your martial arts style is very strange.

Who are you?

As long as I can win, that's enough.

Get lost!

What are you doing?

I just snatched your life back from Hell,

and you want my efforts to go to waste?

I wanted to capture someone to ask clearly

why the Tang Sect is pursuing me.

I'm worried they might deal
a fatal blow to Miss Huo.

Don't worry.

She didn't follow the route you two planned.

She took the land route in disguise.

Besides, the pursuers on the mountain
were toyed with by me.

They definitely won't catch her.

Thank you for helping Miss Huo.

Though she can deliver the item,

she still made one wrong move.

Sending you right into my hands,

I could take your life at any moment.

You are likely a friend, not a foe.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have
helped me repel the Tang Sect.

Interesting.

You are worthy of being my rival.

My long journey to find you was not in vain.

Enough. Go back to the carriage and rest.

However,

once you have recovered,

we must have a rematch.

With this,

we can monitor for enemies at any time.

We can sleep soundly tonight.

You certainly look comfortable.

Are you really treating me like
a coachman or a servant?

Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?

If you really wanted to kill me,

you wouldn't have bothered to save me.

Haven't you heard?

When a cat captures its quarry,

it toys with it initially,

After torturing enough, it will eat it whole.

I save you one moment,
and threaten to kill you the next.

It's just that killing you
right away would be too boring.

Hey, are you listening?

I'm listening.

Don't you have that shabby cat title?

You're also Lord Bao's right-hand man.

So, can you guess who I am?

You seem dissatisfied with my
title of Imperial Cat.

Smart of you.

You're implying I'm petty,

are you?

Was it you who detoxified
the Old Souls at First Glance in my body?

No.

The only one capable
of curing the severe poison in me, and nearby,

is the Jin family of Tanxi Town.

I was heavily poisoned,
plus had internal and external injuries.

The Jin family didn't report
to the authorities,

nor feared ruining their reputation.

Presumably, you and the Jin family
must have some connections.

Wrong guess.

I have nothing to do with them.

Sit closer to the stove.

There are no pharmacies in the wild.

I barely managed to gather three herbs.

Heating them over the fire will be of some use.

You deny a connection to them,

yet you are quite skilled in medicine.

I said I have no connection to them,
and I mean it.

One moment they save your life,

the next they send the Tang Sect
to hunt you down.

A 'good family' like that

is way out of my league.

What?

Don't believe me?

If the Jin family hadn't tipped them off,

how do you think the Tang Sect
found your whereabouts?

Your way of handling fish is quite skilled.

Do you live by the water?

Yes.

So you still don't know who I am?

So much for Imperial Cat.

I didn't expect you to figure it out.

My name is...

Jin Mao Shu.

Does it ring a bell?

I'm really sorry.

How is that possible?

Stop playing dumb!

Just you wait.

I'll beat you up once you've recovered!

Stay here.

I'll go and take a look.

Si Ming.

[Si Ming]
I failed the task His Lordship assigned to me.

Open it and see.

His Lordship specifically instructed me
to deliver this to you.

Pick it up and try it, see if it feels right.

This sword was forged by their Ironworks

using the cold-forging technique.

All impurities in the iron have been removed.

Therefore, it is exceptionally sharp.

Our generals can only
experience its power on the battlefield.

It's worth a fortune.

They traveled a great distance
to send only this one.

His Lordship instructed me
to give it to you as a gift.

His Lordship knows

this mission was arduous for you,

and you were injured,

so he specifically told me to prepare

some medicine for external wounds for you.

Take it.

Do you understand...

the intention behind this?

I knew you were coming.

I prepared some fine tea for you.

Come over.

I'm grateful for His Lordship's kindness.

But I failed my duty.

I don't deserve this.

There's no need to be discouraged.

With your talent...

I'm sure you've already made a new plan.

Based on the timing,

the item has already left Xiangzhou.

It is important,

but it cannot be separated from the person.

If Zhan Zhao dies,

then that item becomes useless.

Even if it's delivered to the capital,

there will be no witness to testify.

Come, try this.

The fresh tea of this year.

I will certainly convey

Commander Shao's loyalty to His Lordship.

But those affairs of killing

and charging into battle,

just let Zhi Hua and the others
risk their lives.

Does His Lordship have
other arrangements for me?

Exactly.

His Lordship called you back this time

for a more important task that you must do.

We need to have a backup plan for this task.

How much of your power has recovered?

With a few more days of rest,

I should be at 7 or 8 percent.

By then, I'll be able to have a match with you.

What do you mean?

A match at only 7 or 8 percent?

Are you looking down on me?

What exactly is that item you're carrying,

that it could make Xiangzhou mobilize
the authorities, and both sides to pursue you?

Why would you ask that?

I'm curious.

I already wanted to fight you,

and now I'm inexplicably risking my life
for you and Huo Ling Long.

Can't I even ask?

- You'd better--
- It's better if I don't know.

I knew you'd say that.

Stop being so secretive.

Even if you don't say it,
I've mostly guessed it.

It must be something...

that could upend Xiangzhou's
officialdom and the world,

even causing upheaval in the Great Song Court.

Am I right?

I guessed it!

Going through life and death for such a thing

is really not worth it.

Why are you looking at me? Am I wrong?

The court's destiny should be left

to those in the Jinluan Hall.

Why do you care so much?

Or is it that the Southern Knight Zhan Zhao,
as others say,

once entering the court,

only busies himself with fame and fortune,

even willing to throw away your own life?

I did not enter the court

for the fame and fortune.

I am escorting that item to the capital,

not just for the court,

but also for my friend.

Your friend?

That item...

was entrusted to me before he died.

How could I possibly betray his trust?

For a friend's entrustment,

you would truly risk your life?

You probably also have friends for whom

you'd risk your life just for a single word.

Of course I do.

Go to sleep.

What are you doing?

Why are you following me?

Are you... Ding Zhao Hui?

I am.

That's right then.

Master Ding, please.

How could you hit someone without cause?

I was sent by Miss Huo
specifically to find you.

White clothes, handsome face.

I recognized you at once.

I am Lord Zhan's servant.

My name is Ming Zhu Er.

[Ming Zhu Er]
Master Ding, thank you for saving my Lord.

I see.

Actually,

Zhan Zhao and I have known each other
for years.

If he's in trouble,
I will certainly lend a hand.

Where is Miss Huo?
Has she reached Yincheng Town?

Yes.

It was at Yincheng Town
that she bumped into Zhao Zhi Er and me,

and the Prince, too.

She rested in Yincheng Town for the night,

and left for the capital with
the Prince this morning.

Master Ding,

where is my Lord?

In the dilapidated house to the east.

Go take care of him first.

I have some urgent business.
I'll be back in a while.

Alright.

My Lord!

My Lord!

My Lord!

Smarty-pants.

Here, have some water.

I only asked if Miss Huo was safe,

and you, like tipping out beans,

talked about your adventures with Zhao Zhi Er
in Yincheng Town for a full half-hour.

You didn't stay in the Bianjing city

just so you could fool around
here with Zhao Zhi Er?

That's not it.

Zhao Zhi Er was just accompanying
the Prince on his travels,

and happened to meet Miss Huo.

I actually came to find you, My Lord.

Lord Bao gave instructions.

There's an urgent matter for you to handle.

What is it?

It's all because of that damn Jinmao Rat!

At first,
he went to your residence to find you.

Seeing you weren't there,

he thought you were avoiding him.

So he went to Kaifeng Prefecture
to cause trouble.

After Wang Chao and Ma Han
scolded him and drove him away,

he held a grudge.

He actually stole Lord Bao's official seal!

He stole the official seal?

It's all because of that title.

Truly shameless.

The title Imperial Cat
was bestowed by the Emperor.

Why are the Five Rats so upset?

If they want to complain,

they should go to the Emperor.

But do they dare?

He stole the seal and left a note,
saying he wants to fight you.

If you win, he'll return the official seal.

That damn rat!
He really doesn't know his place.

How dare he use Lord Bao's official seal
as a wager?

On your way here,

did you see a man in white?

Do you mean Master Ding?

I did. He even kicked me!

Look, the footprint is still here.

He said he had something urgent

and told me to come back to tend to you.

That Bai Yu Tang...

so elusive.

My Lord, what did you say?

He is Bai Yu Tang?

The Jinmao Rat, Bai Yu tang!

Then why did you spend so much time with him?

He saved my life.

I thought he only wanted to challenge me
in martial arts,

so I didn't expose his identity.

I never expected he would actually
steal the official seal.

He must have gotten cold feet
at the last minute,

thought he couldn't beat you,
and fled in a hurry.

We must make a trip to Xiankong Island.

Going to Xiankong Island now
would be walking into a trap!
