How about Empathy?
No way!
Too dangerous!
Using such a wicked trick,
a little carelessness will get you destroyed.
You may never return.
-Unless there is a... -Enough! We're running out of time.
Form up now. Let's begin.
We still need to go back for Hanguang Jun afterward.
Jin Ling, you supervise this.
Me?
You want a young...
You want me to supervise you doing this?
If Young Master Jin is unwilling,
I'd love to.
Jin Ling.
Did you bring the silver bell of the Jiang Clan?
The silver bell of the Jiang Clan has the effect of settling minds.
Let's use this as a signal.
It should be me.
You didn't want to do it just now.
And now you want to.
Constantly changing your mind, you have a lady's temper.
Jingyi.
Stop talking now.
Let's start.
TEN YEARS AGO
Why is a girl here?
She seems blind.
Yes.
Miss.
There's a tree in front of you.
Thank you very much.
-Take it slow. -Miss.
-Thanks. -Be careful.
Are you hungry?
Take this and eat, please.
How can I take this?
I...
Just take it.
I'm Jing, thank you.
Thank you.
-Poor girl. -Yes.
She's blind at such a young age.
She's so young.
What happened to her eyes?
-Be well, please. -All right, thanks.
-I'm sorry. So sorry. -Didn't you bring your eyes?
I can't see.
Sorry.
You can't see?
Be careful when walking then.
Miss, let me escort you a little, okay?
Be careful, miss.
I can walk on my own, thank you.
You should take care then, miss.
Bad man.
Are your kind of people all like this?
You dress up like a decent man
but carry so little money.
It doesn't tinkle even when I pinch and shake it.
Song Lan said
that Xiao Xingchen had gone missing in Yiling.
And what happened to his eyes?
Sorry.
I can't see.
I'm fine.
Miss, you can't see either?
Yes.
Please take it slow then.
Don't walk so fast
in case you run into somebody again.
This way.
There's no crowd here.
I'm Jing. Thank you, my friend.
I can go back on my own.
Since you regard me as your friend,
please return that man's moneybag.
Bad girl! Return my money!
Return it!
Mister, calm down, please.
It's inappropriate to raise your hand
at a little girl.
A blind man showing up from nowhere.
Why play the hero here?
Do you know that she's a thief?
She stole my money!
You are protecting her.
You're with her, aren't you?
Return his money.
So bold of you.
Without your sight,
you still dare to steal.
He just touched me in a lewd way.
What's wrong with a small charge?
His moneybag is so big,
but with so little money inside.
How could he threaten to beat people like that?
Stingy asshole.
Such being the case,
you shouldn't have messed with him.
If he had the chance to hurt you,
one slap wouldn't have been the end.
Miss.
I hope you know what you shouldn't do.
I haven't returned your moneybag.
It's yours now. There's not much there.
Don't steal again before it runs out.
According to what that stingy guy said,
you can't see either?
Then I'll follow you from now on.
Follow me for what?
You want to be a cultivator?
You're a big blind. I'm a little blind.
We can take care of each other if we're together.
I don't have any parents.
I can follow anyone and go anywhere.
Besides, if you don't bring me with you,
the money you give me
will run out very soon.
I can only steal or defraud then.
Maybe
I'd be slapped by somebody so badly
that I wouldn't know where to go.
Poor me.
You're such a clever girl.
Only you can fool people so utterly and completely.
Who can beat you disoriented?
Which means you allow me to follow you?
My friend in white.
Don't skip while walking.
You might fall.
What's wrong?
Nothing. I just sprained my foot.
Let's hurry to the you-know-what town ahead and rest for a while.
Didn't you sprain your foot?
Do you need me to carry you?
Yes.
Hold on.
There's a smell of blood.
What's wrong?
Somebody is lying here.
Is he dead?
Should we dig a pit to bury him?
No.
The person is just badly wounded.
COFFIN TOWN
Jing.
Find something useful around here.
There's a basin.
Find a pot to boil some water and be careful.
Jing, hurry!
Coming.
Here's the water.
Don't move.
You...
I told you not to move.
Your injuries are going to worsen.
Rest assured.
I've taken you out of the wild.
I won't hurt you.
Who are you?
Can you see with your eyes?
A wandering cultivator, of course.
He carried you here,
treated you, and fed you elixirs.
How can you be so hostile?
Blind?
What? Do you have a problem with the blind?
You were saved by the blind.
If it weren't for us, you'd be rotting by the road now.
You didn't thank us when you woke up
and ridiculed us instead.
Stop leaning on that.
Your leg wound is still bleeding.
Treatment can't be delayed.
Or your leg would be disabled.
Sorry for the trouble then.
What is it?
Did I hurt you?
No.
I accidentally touched my wound.
Why aren't you asking who I am
and how I was wounded like this?
If you don't say it yourself,
then I don't have to ask.
We met by chance.
I'm just lending a hand.
It's no trouble for me.
Once you recover, we shall depart.
If it were me,
I also have something I don't want to be asked about.
Done.
But you shouldn't move too much.
Or your bones will dislocate again.
Thank you for saving my life.
What's the matter?
Here is a piece of candy for you.
I don't want to eat it. I won't go there.
Really?
You dare not come here?
Who said I dare not?
What did you throw at me?
Sweets.
It's my treat.
Sorry. I forgot you're blind. You can't catch it.
It's beside your feet.
Is it delicious, Little Blind?
I have a name. And it's not "Little Blind."
You haven't told me.
I can only call you that.
Listen carefully,
my name is Jing.
Don't call me "Little Blind" again.
You're such a weirdo.
You were covered with blood
and severely wounded,
yet you still got sweets with you.
Do you have more?
I have a crazy sweet tooth since I was a kid.
But I couldn't have any.
I could only watch others eating sweets with envy.
So I thought that
once I became successful,
I would bring an endless supply of sweets with me.
So do you have more?
Of course.
Come here.
And I'll give you one.
Jing.
Regarding your friend in white,
what does he do at midnight?
He goes out for a hunt, I guess.
A hunt? Night hunting, I presume.
Is that what's called?
They sound the same to me.
Something about killing monsters for people without charge.
He can still go night hunting without his sight?
You're ridiculing him again. So what if he can't see?
The Taoist priest is still awesome
despite his impaired sight.
He's good with his sword.
There's only one word to describe it, "fast."
You can't see.
How do you know his sword is fast?
If I say so, then it's the truth.
The Taoist priest's sword must be very fast.
Besides,
can't I hear even if I can't see?
What are you insinuating?
You're looking down on the blind, aren't you?
Where have you been?
I went out for some wood and hay
to fix the rooftop
in case you are cold at night
when I'm out there.
You're going out again tonight?
Night hunting?
-Just a favor. -Do you need a favor?
I mean the rooftop.
No need to help us.
You really can do it, my friend?
Shamefully,
I don't have any experience with it.
Then you should leave it to me.
I've been doing this since I was little.
If I can't do this...
Your wounds haven't healed yet. Will you be fine?
Being active is the best cure.
Besides, only one of my legs is injured.
I've gotten used to having injuries.
I got beaten a lot as a child.
Let me help.
Don't go with him.
You know what,
this guy is the same as you.
When I was talking with him,
I deliberately said "hunting" instead of "night hunting."
He corrected me immediately.
It should be a word only known to cultivators, right?
He is secretive.
He didn't reveal anything.
He's hiding something.
He must be up to no good.
Listen to yourself.
You've got his sweets.
Please don't drive him away then.
He'll naturally leave once his wounds heal.
Nobody wants to stay with us in the Coffin Home.
Can you take me out with you tomorrow night?
Definitely not.
You're still recovering.
Besides, I want to laugh every time you talk.
And I can't hold my sword steadily when I'm laughing.
Then I'd stay quiet.
I'll carry your sword for you and assist you.
Don't leave me, please.
Okay then.
Come on.
Slowly.
There's not even one living person in this village.
They're all puppets now.
Yes.
Luckily, your sword can detect where puppets are.
With our own strength,
we couldn't have fought our way out.
Let's go check out the village again.
If there's really no living person,
we should burn these evil beings as soon as possible.
These people are really puppets?
The bad guy is really helping the Taoist priest?
The blind and the crippled walking side by side.
How interesting.
He walks with a limp.
Yes.
Get out of my face.
Xiao Xingchen.
THREE YEARS LATER
Little girl.
The sun is setting.
If you really can't see,
you shouldn't walk so fast.
Miss.
What's the matter?
Have you seen
a white blind cultivator carrying a sword?
What
do you want from him?
You've seen him?
Where is he?
I may or may not have seen him.
Miss.
How did you meet him?
Well, if you answer my questions,
I might tell you about him.
Okay.
Are you a friend of his?
Yes.
You really know him?
What's his height?
How does he look?
And what does his sword look like?
His height is similar to mine.
He looks pretty nice.
His sword is engraved with frost flowers.
Okay.
I suppose you're not a bad guy.
Come with me.
Sorry for the trouble.
COFFIN TOWN
What's wrong?
Why aren't you catching up?
Come on. Why are you just standing there?
The bad guy is back.
Why is he here?
Do you know who he is?
A bad guy.
He never told us his name. How would I know?
He was saved by my friend in white.
The bad guy pesters him all day. Disgusting!
Here. Xiao Xingchen. Old rules.
Pick one.
This one. Are you sure?
You picked the short one. I won.
You go get some fresh produce.
Well then, I'll go.
Come back.
I'll go.
Why do you want to go again?
Are you stupid?
I actually picked the short one.
But I already hid the longest one.
Whichever one you had picked,
I could always have a longer one.
I'm just taking advantage of your blindness.
Well, that's enough.
I'll go get some fresh produce.
Wait for my return.
Mister?
What's the matter?
No.
Song Lan. No.
Should we wake them up?
It's too dangerous.
Wait. We should wait longer.
Ring the bell now!
Ring the bell!
Master Mo.
Master Mo, wake up!
Master Mo.
Why isn't he waking up?
Master Mo.
Master Mo, wake up!
Xue Yang, taking advantage of his blindness,
you've deceived him so badly.
His blindness?
Where do you think his eyes went?
Xue Yang.
Isn't it the Taoist Song?
What a rare guest.
Did you come for a meal?
Damn Taoist.
Just when I finally went out for food,
you get in my way.
What tricks are you using?
I was wondering why you're being lenient.
So you want to ask this?
Speak!
You scum!
What's your motive for approaching him?
I didn't expect your warm concern, Taoist Song.
Speak!
Well, you're forcing me to do this.
Do you know what your good friend of Taoism
has done?
He's killed so many evils.
And he did that for free.
So touching.
He gave his eyes to you,
so he is blind now.
Luckily Frostwork can
indicate where the resentful energy is.
What's more,
I found out that
if tongues of those poisoned are removed,
even the Frostwork can't tell
whether it's a living person or an evil thing.
So...
Son of a bitch.
You're an animal beneath beasts.
Taoist Song.
Sometimes, I think you educated can be really amateur
at cursing.
You just repeated several words.
It's weak and unimaginative.
You curse like a lady.
I quit using those words when I was seven.
You!
Taking advantage of his blindness,
you've deceived him so badly.
His blindness?
Where do you think his eyes went?
So Song Lan
gave his eyes to Taoist Song.
What right do you have to chastise me?
Are you his friend?
Can you still say that you're a friend of Xiao Xingchen?
-I... -Taoist Song.
Should I remind you
what you said to Xiao Xingchen
after I attacked Snow White Pavilion?
I...
I was...
You were grieving and indignant?
You were in pain?
In sorrow?
You were looking for a person to vent anger?
So you blamed him back then?
No.
To be fair,
I attacked Snow White Pavilion just because of him.
You blamed him for that.
And that's exactly what I wanted.
Isn't it you who said
that we wouldn't meet again, Taoist Song?
He gave you his eyes
and disappeared.
Why did you come for him again?
Aren't you besetting him?
Xiao Xingchen, what do you say?
Is that you?
I'm here. Why are you here?
Frostwork sensed something. I came by its guidance.
A puppet?
Yes.
He was shouting fiercely.
But his strength ran out.
SNOW FLICK
Come on. Let's go make dinner. I'm hungry.
What about the fresh produce?
I already bought it.
I was just unlucky to run into this thing
on my way back.
-Master Mo. -Master Mo.
-Wake up! -Master Mo.
No reaction.
Did he go crazy?
I told you that Empathy is dangerous.
It's your fault. You didn't ring the bell in time.
Keep quiet.
I feel dizzy.
You've done well.
You could see things before
and could speak.
It's Xue Yang
who made you like this.
Rest assured.
You stay here for now.
Puppets in the town
can't get in the Coffin Home.
I'll be back soon.
Master Mo.
What did you see
through Empathy?
Long story. I'll talk about it later.
Can you cut it short?
Don't leave us suspended.
In short,
Xue Yang must die.
Lan Zhan.
Wen Ning, restrain him!
The two nails
are much thinner than those in Wen Ning's head.
And the materials are different.
It shouldn't be difficult for Song Lan to restore nature.
Give it back!
Xue Yang.
What do you want him to give back to you?
Frostwork?
But Frostwork is not your sword.
Why should he give it back?
How bold are you?
Master Wei.
You're so relentless.
Of course, I can't show you any mercy.
Do you think I don't know
what you've done all these years?
When you were chased by your foes,
Xiao Xingchen saved you with kindness.
But you betrayed his kindness.
By turning living people into puppets,
you deceived Xiao Xingchen
and now you made Song Lan look like this.
You didn't even spare a little girl like Jing!
You're laughing?
How can you still laugh?
He is so disgusted by you,
yet you still wanted to bring him to life
just for your crappy game!
I want nothing of the kind.
Then why did you kneel down and beg me
to repair his spiritual cognition?
