Detective Samoyeds
The pain is killing me!
How much did you drink?
Dad!
Bring him some water, quickly!
I feel terrible, dad!
Dad!
My young Lord, drink some water.
Go!
Send for a doctor!
Send for a doctor immediately!
It's nothing serious.
He's only suffering from excessive internal heat.
The heat toxins affected his heart.
He just needs to skip a few meals
and take some medicine to clear the internal heat.
Okay.
The Young Lord also suffers from phlegm and dampness. I have an ancient prescription which matches this case well.
Thank you, Doctor Chen.
15 grams of Dandelion, 15 grams of herba violae, 40 grams of Radix Isatidis...
My Lord, something terrible happened to the young Lord!
What happened?
How could this happen?
What happened?
Go,
bring Doctor Chen here!
I'll get him for this!
Life-Reaping Warble Flies
My son died the next day after he took your medicine! Life-Reaping Warble Flies
His stomach was full of maggots! Life-Reaping Warble Flies
What wicked magic was this? Life-Reaping Warble Flies
What wicked magic was this?
You charlatan!
What an acupuncture you did!
What grudge do you hold against my son that you did this to him? What an acupuncture you did!
What grudge do you hold against my son that you did this to him?
I did it on a scientific basis!
What basis!
My son is lying there!
I did everything by the book! My son is lying there!
I did everything by the book!
You can't put the blame for your son's death on me!
Don't stop me!
Who should be blamed if not you?
The ministers of Dalisi are here.
Sirs,
The murderer is this evil Doctor Chen.
Please help my case and bring him to justice right away!
Sirs,
I have practiced medicine here for 30 years!
I'm not saying I have cured countless of people,
but at least I have spared no efforts to treat each patient!
You can ask around about this!
Don't smear my reputation for no reason!
How did I smear your reputation? My son died!
He's lying there!
How did I smear your reputation? Then tell me who it was!
That's enough.
If he's the murderer,
we will arrest him.
But arresting a person without evidence
is far too hasty.
Sirs,
you still need evidence?
My son's lying there.
Go have a look and you will understand.
You will understand the moment you see him!
Go! Go!
You need to let the officers...
You charlatan!
Let the officers uphold justice!
You charlatan!
Prove that I'm innocent!
You murderer!
Who's a murderer?
You charlatan!
I, I did....
You charlatan!
Stop pulling me!
Enough, enough.
Why?
Enough, enough!
Mr. Liu, please calm down.
The dead can't be brought back to life.
What on earth happened?
Please explain it to us
so we can draw a conclusion.
I'll tell you.
My son had a stomachache.
He took the medicine this charlatan prescribed him. Then he just...
Sirs,
he must be severely punished, sirs!
Please do justice for us!
Sirs, Liu Jr. suffered excessive internal heat.
I have acupunctured his Shangxing, Shengting and other points with the golden needle to clear off extra heat and eczema.
These points are not fatal ones.
How could I kill him?
As for the decoction, I was only responsible for the prescription.
Mr. Liu's people were in full charge of getting the medicine.
If you want to blame this decoction,
then Mr. Liu,
you should ask your people and not me.
Right!
- Nonsense! - It was you!
The servants in my residence are all loyal!
How could they have killed the lord?
Then how did this happen?
How can you blame it on me?
Stop fighting!
Mr. Liu, Do you still have the prescription and the decoction？
Yes. Servants!
At your service.
Go fetch the prescription and herb residue.
Shuangye.
Yes?
Did you find anything?
Just as the doctor said,
there are traces of acupuncture done to the Fengfu, Neiguan and other points.
But these are not fatal points,
they couldn't have caused death.
As for further information, I need to do an autopsy on the body back at my place.
The herbs on the prescription
are normal remedies for heat-clearing and detoxication.
There is also no undesirable interaction between them.
Judging from the herbal residue,
the decoction was not poisoned.
My son!
Sirs,
I'd like to sue Mr. Liu for defamation!
You...!
The reputation I've earned throughout my career is not for you to slander!
Many patients are still waiting for me in my clinic.
If there is nothing else,
I'm leaving.
Sirs.
Mr. Liu, please think about it carefully.
Are there any other clues?
Does your son have any enemies?
No.
Though he is licentious at times,
his nature is not bad.
He's never done things
offensive to God and reason.
Sirs, please find out the truth!
Then we'd better wait for the autopsy report
before we decide what to do next.
That's the only thing we can do now.
So how much is the wage?
What wage?
I've been working for you all day! Am I working for free?
Samo Duoluo, it seems to taste really good.
You scared me!
Are you a ghost or what?
Spare a rod, spoil a child.
Siniang! Calm down!
- Go ahead and run! - Don't hit me!
- Siniang! - You are not only lazy anymore,
you even know how to lie now!
What about all those dirty cups of yours?
What is this?
When I saw these peony earrings,
I knew that I must give these to you to wear.
Because you
are like the peony in the poem.
Its beauty could rend kingdoms and lands,
though heartless it grows lovely and hypnotizing!
Flea market goods.
Of course not!
When I bought it, the owner of the gold shop said it's made of pure gold.
And you know what?
I used up all my savings
just so I could afford them!
That's the reason why I help Chancellor Li solve those cases every day.
What?
It's definitely gold!
I guess you're finally getting wise.
I'll let you off this time.
You know,
you're lucky it's not too hot these days,
if those dirty cups of yours get infested with maggots,
I'll kill you!
Go do the dishes!
Stop eating!
It's not too hot?
Maggots won't breed?
Samo! Samo!
Guess what this is.
The stuff from Liu Junior's stomach?
What's the smell?
Madam, do something about it!
I can't take it. I'm going.
I can't take it.
Let's go!
Sirs, please don't leave.
What's going on? Why are they all leaving?
Sir, sir!
Pay the bills!
What's wrong?
Samo, it was Samo!
You're going to pretend it wasn't you?
I saw you push this over to Shuangye.
You want to put the blame on Shuangye,
don't you?
Well?
How could you do this?
Would it be right? Where is your sense of loyalty?
Fine! It was me.
It was all my fault.
Great, since you admitted it,
all the losses will be deducted from your salary!
Your business doesn't look good today.
I covered up for you. You must help me out here.
Rip off as much as we can.
Samo, I don't want to part with you.
Don't leave, please don't leave.
What happened to Samo?
I have to leave you all,
leave Fanshe,
leave
Chang'an, the city I love so much.
Samo got in trouble with Siniang,
Siniang is going to drive him away.
Don't ask him for help.
I can pay off what I owe Siniang myself.
All right. Is this enough?
I can never again solve cases with you.
This should be enough.
Can the friendship between us be measured by money?
I... I'll give you all of this, all right?
Siniang, I've paid off the debt to you!
We're even now! Let's move to the case.
Just explain it, don't open it!
Do you want me to go broke again?
You... go broke?
Let's talk about the case!
I found horse meat inside Liu Junior's stomach,
raw horse meat.
So the maggots came from the horse meat?
That's impossible.
It's not summer yet.
Where do the maggots come from?
Then someone must have tampered with the horse meat.
Siniang, where can you buy horse meat?
You brat! Isn't it enough that I give you good food and drink?
You got the nerve to ask for horse meat?
Do you want to die?
Our country puts much importance on horse administration. All war horses and business horses are registered
and administered by the office for animal husbandry.
With the trouble on the frontier and the war in the northeast,
horses are very important war goods.
They are not allowed to be sold to commoners.
So this horse meat...
Since they are registered,
we only need to check the official records.
These are all the records you need.
Thank you.
Raw meat is not easy to keep.
We only need to check the records from 3 days before Liu Junior's death.
But there's nothing suspicious in here.
There are no transaction records or records on any horses dying.
Did the horse meat appear out of the blue?
Was Shuangye's conclusion wrong?
We are at a dead end?
I've made a thorough investigation!
There's no mistake!
It was horse meat!
Guys, I've heard there's a black horse market in Chang'an, full of foreign traders!
The traders are from Wusun, Dayuan and Dayueshi, from almost everywhere.
They sell treasures from the Western Regions and even famous horses from Dayuan!
By the way, the boss of the black market is a foreign trader called Yisaike.
Sir, have you heard the news about Mr. Liu?
No, I didn't.
What happened?
Seems like I should congratulate you!
What could have happened
that you are congratulating me?
Liu Junior
died due to a sudden disease!
Is your news reliable?
Of course. I've heard from his servants that maggots grew inside his stomach
and broke out of the skin.
He died a terrible death!
I brought you wine and good food to congratulate you.
I've heard that you sell horses.
Are there any horses from Dayuan?
How much do they cost? Show them to me.
If you want to buy a horse,
you need to go to the office for animal husbandry.
We don't have Dayuan horses here.
Stop lying.
A friend told me to come here.
I'm afraid you're mistaken.
How could we possibly have Dayuan horses here?
You must have made a mistake, sir.
What do you mean?
So Mr. Liu can buy your horses,
but my lord here can't?
You're acting like snobs.
Liu Junior didn't buy horses from us.
Selling horses secretly is illegal.
Please don't believe the rumors, sir.
I only mentioned Mr. Liu.
How did you know I was referring to Mr. Liu Junior?
Plus,
I've heard you talking about his death.
You were planning to drink in celebration.
Why is that?
Sir,
he was talking about
my acquaintance Mr. Niu in Longxi.
You must have made a mistake.
Even though you cleaned up this place carefully and burn incense here,
but still there are mosquitoes here.
It means that there is
a livestock nearby.
Where else would these mosquitoes which only bite cattle and horses come from?
You said you don't deal in horses, but would you dare let us in for a search?
What are you doing?
Dalisi is here on duty!
If you cooperate, we will only confiscate the horses you hold illegally,
we won't investigate your case further.
If not, your illegal dealing in horses will be punished by exile.
So what will it be!
Yes, yes, we will tell you whatever we know.
Please spear us, sir!
What's the enmity between you and Liu Jr.?
How is his death related to you?
Sir, I'm innocent!
His death really has nothing to do with me!
Then why would your friend congratulate you after learning about his death?
I will be honest,
we do hate Liu Jr.
We came all the way here to Chang'an
and risk our lives doing small businesses
just to earn a living for our families in our hometown.
But in Chang'an City,
Liu Jr. and the like buy and sell horses under coercion.
They plunder and bully the commoners,
they dominate the market!
Not only do we earn no money,
we are even losing our money, sir!
But the horse meat in Mr. Liu's stomach did indeed come from your stock.
The meat was full of maggots.
Was it not you who tampered with it?
Sir,
At times, I eat some raw beef and horse meat, too,
but I'm doing well as you can see.
This is so strange!
How is it strange? Please explain.
When I was still in the western regions,
I once saw this kind of maggot in a few tribes.
These maggots are very demanding about their living environment.
Like temperature,
humidity
and nutrition.
If these three conditions aren't met,
this kind of unusual maggot couldn't emerge.
That is to say,
these maggots shouldn't have appeared in our country?
Yes, exactly.
These maggots are parasites living on the skin of cattle, horses and goats.
They are warble flies.
They feed on blood.
Every year when it gets cold,
these warble flies penetrate its host's skin to produce eggs.
The newly-grown flies wait until it's warm again the next year,
break through their host's skin,
starting a new cycle of parasitism.
It sounds quite cruel.
If that's the case,
the death of Liu Jr.
must be related to these warble flies.
Mr.
Yes, sir.
What else can you say for yourself?
I'm innocent, sir!
I have nothing to do with the flies!
If I could raise them,
I could even rival a Jialuo Master in power!
Why would I still be here dealing in horses illegally?
Sir!
If you still don't believe me,
let me show you around my barn.
Sir, this is where I keep my cattle and horses.
There are many mosquitoes here,
but they are not dangerous to your life.
I wouldn't have come here to get a sampling if I knew.
What are you talking about?
Sir, this horse died of a disease recently.
Sir.
That's it.
Here you are.
Please compare them carefully
and prove me innocent.
I don't get it! I don't get it!
How on earth did he die?
And what's the cause?
I don't get it!
What's wrong, Shuangye?
I did a thorough autopsy of Liu Jr.'s body,
but I couldn't find the cause of his death!
I've brought you a sample of maggots.
See if you can find some new clues.
These are different.
Both eggs and grown flies are different from the others.
They are are different kind of species.
The foreign businessman told the truth.
We're at a dead end again.
Whatever.
I've been working for you all day!
I'm so hungry, I can't think!
Why are you humphing?
Still studying the corpse?
If you don't eat,
you're gonna turn into a corpse! Let's go!

I don't even get paid!
Why shouldn't he treat me to meals?
Plus, this way, not only can I enjoy a hearty meal,
but I'll bring in income for Fanshe.
That's killing two birds with one stone!
Samo Duoluo! Look what you did!
What did I do?
I ordered the most expensive ones on the menu!
The whole meal
is a big source of income for you!
It'll cancel out my wage today.
Cancel out your wage?
Do I pay you so you can harm me like this?
What happened?
Look at these earrings you gave me!
Look at here!
You are tired of living, aren't you?
You gave me fake ones!
But... but the shopkeeper of the gold shop told me it was pure gold!
How should I have known?
It must be because you are always so stressed out.
It's your own doing.
Nothing to do with the earrings.
What a barefaced lie!
Stop quarreling.
I've got something
that will prove whether it's gold or not.
I suddenly thought of a clue!
Chancellor Li, come on, we're investigating the case!
Hurry up!
Samo, you were right!
The family of Mr. Liu is really odd.
After I went over the wall,
I looked around.
Everything there was as usual.
But when I went into the backyard, there was a locked room.
The Servants brought new offerings
and took out the old.
Afterwards, they locked the room again.
If they brought offerings there,
it must be for sacrificing.
But why didn't they do it in the shrine
but instead in a small room in the backyard?
And they locked it up?
I was curious about this,
so after they left,
I pried the door open and sneaked into the room.
I saw a memorial tablet.
What's so unusual about a memorial tablet?
It was weird because there was no name on the tablet.
Or they may have erased the name.
The only thing written on it was the date of birth and death and the word “Qingxi”.
Judging by the time of death, the departed should be a child,
and it's four years ago.
The child wasn't enshrined...
Could he be an illegitimate child of Liu Sr.?
How do you know it's not the child of Liu Jr.?
If he was an illegitimate child, even if his memorial tablet can't be placed in the shrine,
it should at least have a name written on it.
And what does “Qingxi” mean?
Have a seat.
Did you find anything?
Liu Sr. and Su Yuanzhou of the Ministry of Personnel have long been vying with each other.
Each wanted to have something on the other,
so they were both very cautious out of fear they could be impeached by the other.
I didn't find anything
regarding Liu Sr.
But there is one thing that struck me as strange.
A few days ago, on the day that he turned to you for the case,
he left the city for some urgent business after night curfew.
He went to a village in the suburbs called Qingxi.
What could be so urgent that made an old man leave the city after night curfew by himself?
Qingxi?
This Qingxi is so poor!
It's dirty and dilapidated, nothing like a city under the direct supervision of the emperor.
Thank you, good heavens!
Liu Jr. is finally dead!
What goes around comes around! Evil is rewarded with evil!
Hello?
Who is it?
You are...
Madam, it's like this,
we two are traveling and passed by here.
We feel a little thirsty and like to ask you for some water.
OK. Please wait a second.
Don't just stare at the food. Look at the memorial tablet.
Did you notice?
The dates of birth and death match with those on the Liu family's tablet.
Madam, whose memorial tablet is...
It's my son's.
He fell off the cliff four years ago.
My deepest sympathies, madam.
Take care of your health.
We're leaving.
Take care.
We'll see ourselves out.
Sir, madam, can I ask you something?
That house over there looks different from the others.
Yes. They have a promising son.
The son became an apprentice in Jiannan 4 years ago,
he is a local doctor there now.
But didn't her son die falling off the cliff 4 years ago?
You're talking about her younger son.
We're talking about her older son.
It's quite a sad story.
Back then, it was my husband who helped them bury the young man.
He noticed a hole in the son's chest.
He may have gotten pierced by a stalagmite or a branch.
Yes, you shouldn't envy them.
Perhaps it was because the heaven saw she lost a son and led a miserable life, that he showed mercy on her.
Stop gossiping. Let’s go.
Thank you.
Qingxi? Four years ago?
Fallen off the cliff? Liu Sr.?
What's the connection here?
It's such a mess!
Did you find anything in Qingxi today?
It became even more confusing.
How is the scenery there?
Before, there was a famous hunting field，
which was frequented by rich guys from Chang'an City.
But four years ago, it somehow became desolated.
You're saying there was a hunting field four years ago?
Four years ago again.
During that time,
the younger son fell off the cliff. The hunting field became desolate.
And the elder son went to Jiannan to study medicine.
I got it.
What?
The old woman said to the the memorial tablet that Liu Jr. has gotten what he deserves,
it means that her son didn't die from falling off the cliff.
Liu Jr. was involved in her son's death.
The villager said there was a hole in his chest.
I've looked around.
Stalagmites couldn't have formed there.
The trees are all willows.
How could its branch pierce through a person's chest?
Zisu just said that there was a hunting field,
we can almost determine that the son didn't die from falling
but because he was shot by an arrow.
And the man who shot him was Liu Jr.
By accident, or on purpose ?
Both are possible.
Why did his mother lie to us?
I remember Zisu saying that
Liu Sr. and Sun Yuanzhou from the Ministry of Personnel
have been enemies for years.
Both wanted to have something on the other.
The fact that Liu Jr. killed a person
would come in handy
for Mr. Liu's political enemy.
Yes!
That's the reason Mr. Liu had to hide
this matter.
The villagers told us
that the oldest son went to Jiannan to study medicine.
But how could a family that was living on ragpicking have enough money to send their son
to Jiannan to study medicine?
They must have been given a large sum four years ago.
Liu Sr. must have given it to him as hush money.
The hunting field gradually became desolate four years ago,
this should have been the doing of Liu Sr.
Everything makes perfect sense now.
But the suspect, the oldest son, is in Jiannan.
No.
He is in Chang'an.
Why.. why would you say that?
His mother sighed about karma in front of the memorial tablet.
It means that she has just received the news.
She has difficulty in walking and mostly stays at home.
So she must have gotten the news from someone else.
Li Zhi,
have you noticed the chestnut cake on her table?
It's the famous cake of Tianxiang Lou in Chang'an.
It was still completely untouched, which means that it has just gotten there.
And the person who brought her the cake is in Chang'an.
Presumably, this person has planned his revenge for a long time.
He spread the news he had gone to Jiannan to study medicine so as to dispel Liu Sr.'s doubts.
He changed his name and stayed in Chang'an, studying medicine and waiting for his chance to take revenge.
Let's go! To the clinic.
Dalisi is here on duty!
Unauthorized persons are to leave this area!
Search!
What are you doing?
Wasn't the case closed already?
You must be here on Liu Sr.'s order to make trouble for no reason again.
I found this. Look.
The law should see that justice is done to your brother's tragic death.
As a doctor,
you should hold mercy in your heart.
However, you took someone's life!
How are you any different from Liu Jr.?
Hold on!
You blindly arrest him only on the grounds of this pill?
Dalisi never arrests anyone blindly.
You bred this kind of warble flies in secret, waiting for your chance to seek retribution.
When Liu Jr. felt sick...
15 grams of herba violae.
You got the perfect chance to take your revenge.
With your status as an apprentice, you went to Liu's house with your master
and let Liu Jr. eat your special made pill.
Is there anything wrong with what I said?
There are indeed eggs and maggots in the pill, but for the many years of my career,
I have never heard of someone who died because of maggots crawling out
from inside his body.
Listen,
the eggs can be digested by one's gastric juice.
It won't kill you.
You don't believe me?
Master!
If I die,
my apprentice will be at your mercy.
If I don't,
you can't take my apprentice away without any evidence!
If it wasn't the warble flies,
then what's the reason of Liu Jr.'s death?
The maggots did indeed crawl out of his body!
Doctor Chen said
that the eggs can be digested by the gastric juice.
He also ate the eggs himself,
it proved that he was right.
If what Doctor Chen said is true,
but the maggots were indeed
crawling out from Liu Jr.'s body...
Unless, Liu Jr.
has died or was dying
at the time
that he took the pill.
It means that
the number of eggs doctor Chen ate
was no threat to his life
under normal circumstances.
But for someone who is dying and weak
the eggs in his stomach can only be partly digested
by his gastric juice.
The other part that couldn't be digested
would multiply rapidly
until they bite through the skin.
Then the real cause of Liu Jr.'s death...?
I've checked this body inside out,
I found nothing!
All I can do now is to open his head!
Head?
I've been so distracted by the maggots that I didn't notice this.
Dalisi is here on duty.
Unauthorized persons are to leave this area!
Please do not make trouble
for no reason.
There are many patients here.
If you hinder their treatment, it could mean their lives!
You suddenly begin to care about someone's life?
Why didn't you care about Liu Jr. life
when you acupunctured his head?
That's slander!
Doing acupuncture using gold needles would have been unproblematic.
But if the needle is rusted,
the situation becomes totally different.
When I was an assistant judge in Bianzhou, I saw soldiers dying from tetanus.
They were injured by rusting weapons.
Doctor Chen, your "Eighteen needles" gained a good reputation around the city.
Could you take out the needles
and let us have a check?
Go ahead.
Thanks. Shuangye.
Well? I've said so,
the needles are fine!
Dalisi can't find an innocent man guilty!
Doctor Chen, as smart as you are,
how would you take the risk to wear the murder weapon on you?
The rusted needle must have been
disposed off already.
You think that we can't find anything
if you changed the needles?
After you did the acupuncture in Mr. Liu's place,
You must have put the rusted needle back into the needle case
and disposed of it afterwards.
However,
if the rusted needle was put into the needle case,
the new needles you put into it
will also become rusted.
Samo.
Doctor Chen, do you have anything to say for yourself now?
Master, all of this...
What's...
Put it away.
Okay.
I killed him.
It's got nothing to do with master.
Four years ago, my young brother went into the forest.
At that time, Liu Jr. was hunting there.
My younger brother
wanted to protect a little rabbit
and was shot by an arrow right through his chest for it!
The Liu family... the Liu family is powerful.
We common people would never dare to provoke them!
During these four years,
I kept seeking for a chance.
I did it all for this day!
Tu'er*, * Name to address one's disciple.
you don't need to cover for me.
I have avenged your brother's death.
From now on,
you can live with your mind freed,
you can concentrate on your study of medicine now.
Master.
Master!
Arrest him.
Please wait.
I am sick, I will die soon.
As the saying goes, a doctor doesn't treat himself.
Before I pass away,
it's good that could fulfill
one of your wishes.
Tu'er,
you have talent.
But you made slow progress
because you are blinded by hatred.
I hope that you will step into my shoes
and pass down the skill of the "Eighteen Needles" generation by generation.
I will.
I won't disappoint you!
Master!
I've caused you harm before when I gave you those cheap earrings,
I am very sorry for that.
So I used all of my savings
to buy you this small present.
I hope that it will make up for my past mistake.
So you have a heart?
Let me have a feel.
What are you up to?
The package
looks like the real thing.
Open it!
Antipruritic powder.
It also has a wonderful name called Smooth Jade powder!
The swelling will fade immediately after applying!
Stop staring! Help me apply it!
OK!
I suddenly remember that the doctor said
this powder
will be much more effective if mixed with spittle.
