'Empathy'.
No! Too perilous.
This dark trick can backfire.
You may never emerge.
- Unless— - Enough. We've no time.
Form up. Begin.
Afterwards, we must find Light-bearer.
Jin Ling, supervise.
Me? You want a...
Want me to supervise?
If Master Jin is unwilling, I can do it.
Jin Ling, did you bring Jiang Sect silver bell?
Jiang Sect silver bell steadies and calms the mind.
Use this as the code.
I'll do it.
Won't do it, will do it.
Hot-cold 'Young Miss' temper.
Jingyi.
Stop talking.
Let's begin.
[ 10 years ago ]
It's a young girl.
- She's blind? - Yes.
Miss!
A tree is in front of you.
Thank you.
Slowly.
- Miss. - Thanks. - Be careful.
Are you hungry?
Eat this.
How can I take it?
- I... - Take it.
Sister, A-Qing is thankful.
- Poor girl. - Yes.
Blind at such a young age.
So young. Pity she can't see.
- Take it. - Thanks.
Sorry, sorry.
Can't you look?
I... I can't see.
I'm sorry.
You...can't see?
Then be careful walking.
Miss, I'll lead you.
Be careful, Miss.
I can walk on my own. Thanks.
Miss, be careful.
Lousy man. They're all like this.
Well dressed, with few coins.
Can't shake a penny out of them.
Brother Song at Yiling said Xiao Xingchen was missing.
What's wrong with his eyes?
Sorry, sorry. I can't see.
I'm fine.
Miss, you can't see too?
Yeah.
Then slow down. Don't walk so fast.
You won't bump into others.
This way. It's less crowded.
A-Qing is thankful to Brother.
Since you called me Brother,
return my money pouch.
Bad lass, return my money.
Give it back.
Sir, be calm.
Mistreating a young miss isn't polite.
Why's a blindie being a hero?
Do you know she stole my money?
You're protecting her. You're a thief too.
Return his money.
You're too bold,
blind and daring to steal.
He touched me. What's wrong with taking his money?
His big money pouch held so little.
He was a bully about it. Penny-pincher.
In that case, you shouldn't have provoked him.
If nobody was here today,
the matter wouldn't easily end.
Young Miss, take care.
I have your money.
It's for you. There's not much.
Use it and don't steal.
I heard that jerk abuse you.
You're blind too?
Then I'll follow you.
Why? Want to Cultivate?
You're tall and blind; I'm small and blind.
We can take care of each other.
I've no parents.
I'll follow anyone, go anywhere.
If you won't take me along, I'll quickly spend what you gave,
then steal and defraud.
Someone may hit me
so badly, l'll lose direction.
Poor me.
Someone as smart as you fools others to lose their way.
Who can do the same to you?
So you'll let me follow?
Brother in White.
Don't skip or jump. Watch out.
What is it?
Nothing. My ankle twisted.
Let's go to whatever town and rest.
Didn't you twist your ankle? Want me to carry you?
Yes.
Wait!
I smell blood.
What's up?
Someone's lying here.
Is he dead?
Must we dig a pit to bury him?
Not dead, only badly injured.
[ Yi City ]
[Yi City]
A-Qing, find something useful.
There's a pot.
Find a stove to boil water. Be careful.
A-Qing, quickly.
Coming.
Here's water.
Don't move.
You...
I said not to move. Your wounds will open.
Don't worry.
I saved you. I won't hurt you.
Who are you?
You have eyes to see—
a roving Cultivator.
He carried you with effort
and fed you medicine.
So mean.
Blindies?
What, biased against the blind?
A blind man saved you
or you'd rot on the road.
You awoke and didn't thank us,
just called us blindies.
Don't sit there. Your leg wound is bleeding.
If not treated soon, you may be crippled.
Then, thank you.
What? Did I hurt you?
No. I bumped my wound.
Immortal, you don't ask who I am?
Or why I was injured?
If you don't say it, I won't ask.
I met you by chance and helped you.
It's nothing too difficult.
After your injuries heal, we'll go separate ways.
If I were you, I'd have things I don't wish to be asked about.
Okay.
Best if you don't move.
Or the bones will dislocate.
Thanks for saving me.
Hey! Little Blindie!
What?
I'll give you candy.
I won't eat it. Not coming.
You don't want it?
You're scared to come over?
I'll come, I'll come.
What did you throw?
Candy.
For you.
I forgot you can't see to catch.
It's by your feet.
Is it good, Little Blindie?
I have a name. I'm not Little Blindie.
You didn't say your name.
I can only call you that.
Listen. I'm A-Qing.
Don't call me Little Blindie.
You're strange.
You're this badly injured
but still carry candy.
You got any more?
When little, I loved candy
but couldn't get any.
Envying candy eaters,
I always thought,
if I get rich, I'll carry lots of candy.
So, do you have more?
Of course, I have.
Come here. I'll give you some.
A-Qing.
Where'd your Brother in White go last night?
I think he went hunting.
What? More like night-hunting.
So? It's similar.
It's helping to fight evil beings for no money.
He's blind. How's he night-hunt?
You're at it again. So what?
Even if Brother can't see, he's powerful.
His sword goes swish, swish.
In one word: fast!
You can't see. How'd you know it's fast?
If I say so, it is. A Taoist's sword must be fast.
I can't see but I can hear.
What did you mean?
You're biased against the blind.
Where'd you go?
I got wood and straw
to repair the roof
in case you're cold at night when I go out.
You'll go out at night again?
Night-hunting again?
Helping out.
I'll help.
- I mean the roof. - No need.
Immortal, know how?
Sorry, I never tried.
I'll do it.
I grew up on the streets. I'm not unable.
Your injuries aren't healed. Are you able?
Moving is the cure. I didn't hurt two legs.
I'm used to injuries.
I grew up beaten a lot.
I'll help.
Don't go.
I tell you, he's your peer.
I said hunting, not 'night-hunting'.
He corrected me.
It's a term used by Cultivators.
He hid his identity.
He's furtive. He can't be a good guy.
You ate his candy.
Don't chase him away.
Once healed, he'll go.
No-one would stay with us in this Coffin Home.
- Take me tomorrow. - No. You're hurt.
Besides, when you talk, I laugh, wobbling my sword.
I won't talk. I will assist you.
Don't desert me.
Alright.
Here. Slowly.
This village had no survivors, only puppets.
Correct. It's good your sword points you at puppets
or we couldn't break through.
Let's recheck the village.
If there truly are no living,
let's burn these evil things.
They were really puppets?
That baddie is helping Brother.
Look, blindies and a cripple.
How interesting.
Agree.
Go, go, go.
Xiao Xingchen.
[ Three Years Later ]
[ Yi City ]
Young Miss.
The sun is about to set.
If you truly can't see,
don't walk so fast.
Miss.
What?
Have you seen a blind Daoist Master in white, carrying a sword?
You...want what from him?
You've seen him? Where is he?
I may or may not have seen him.
Miss, how'd you maybe see him?
Well, answer my questions. Maybe I saw him.
Okay.
You're this Daoist's friend?
Yes.
You really know him?
How tall is he?
Is he pretty or ugly? What's his sword look like?
He's about my height.
Fine looks. Frost pattern sword.
Okay. Guess you're not a baddie.
Follow me.
Thank you, Miss.
[ Yi City ]
[ Coffin Home ]
What's wrong? Why aren't you coming?
Hurry. Why aren't you coming?
That bad thing is back.
Why is he here?
Do you know who he is?
A bad guy.
Never said his name. How'd I know?
He was saved by Brother in White.
Sticks to him everyday. So annoying.
Here, Xiao Xingchen. Old rules.
Pick one.
This one. Sure?
You picked the short one. I win.
You go buy supplies.
Okay. I'll go.
Come back.
I'll go.
Why willing to go now?
Are you stupid?
I picked the short one.
But I hid the longest.
Whichever you picked, I'd pull out a longer one.
Picking on your blindness.
Okay, enough talk. I'll buy supplies.
Wait for my return.
Brother, what's wrong?
Don't. Don't.
Song Lan, don't!
Why don't we wake them? This is perilous.
Wait. Wait longer.
Ring the bell. Ring the bell now!
Senior Mo.
- Senior Mo. - Wake up.
Senior Mo.
Why won't he wake?
Senior Mo?
- Senior Mo! - Wake up!
Xue Yang, you used his blindness
to deceive him terribly.
He's blind?
Who'd he dig his eyes out for?
Xue Yang.
Isn't this Daoist Song?
A rare guest. Here for a meal?
Stinky Daoist. For once, I wanted to shop.
You spoiled my mood.
What are you scheming?
So you held back to ask this.
Answer! You scum, why'd you stay near him this long?
Never thought Daoist Song understood me so well.
Answer!
Fine. You wanted to hear it.
Know what your Daoist best friend
has done?
He killed many evil things
and did it for free.
So touching.
He dug his eyes out for you and now he's blind.
But good thing Shuanghua points him to resentful auras.
Even more wonderful,
if I cut out the tongues of corpse-poisoned people,
Shuanghua can't tell the living from the dead. So...
Beast!
You're a beast below an animal.
Daoist Song.
Sometimes I feel you educated people are disadvantaged when cursing.
Same old words.
Unimaginative and weak.
At 7, I quit such words.
You!
You used his blindness
to deceive him terribly.
He's blind?
Who'd he dig his eyes out for?
So Senior Uncle gave his eyes to Daoist Song.
What position are you in to condemn me?
A friend?
You dare to think you're Xingchen's friend.
- I— - Daoist.
Must I remind you,
after I wiped out your Temple, what you told Xingchen?
I... back then I was...
You were grieving then?
Suffering? Sad?
Had to vent anger?
- So you abused him. - No.
To be fair, I eliminated White Snow Temple due to him.
And you blamed him for that.
It's exactly what I wanted.
Said never see him again, didn't you, Daoist Song?
He gave you his eyes and disappeared.
Why'd you seek him,
making things difficult?
Xiao Xingchen, don't you agree?
Is that you?
I'm here. Why'd you come?
Shuanghua reacted. I let it guide me.
Is it a puppet?
Guess so. Just now it was shouting but it died down.
[ Fuxue ]
Let's go and cook. I'm hungry.
Bought everything?
I got it all, and ran into this.
Such bad luck.
Senior Mo.
- Wake up. - Quickly wake. - Senior Mo.
No response. He lost his mind?
Empathy is perilous.
Your fault. Didn't ring the bell on time.
Be less loud. I feel dizzy.
You suffered.
You used to see and speak.
You got like this due to Xue Yang.
Rest assured.
Stay here for now.
The puppets in the city won't come to this Coffin Home.
- I'll be back soon. - Senior Mo.
What did Empathy show?
Too long to tell. Talk later.
Cut it short? No suspense.
Easy. Xue Yang must die.
Lan Zhan.
Wen Ning, hold him still.
His two needles are thinner than the ones in Wen Ning's head.
The material is different.
It shouldn't be hard to restore Song Lang's nature.
Give it back to me!
Xue Yang. What do you want back?
Shuanghua?
Shuanghua isn't your sword.
Why ask for it back?
Have you no shame?
Senior Wei, you really show no mercy.
Of course I can't show mercy.
Think I don't know what you've done these years?
After foes hunted you,
Xiao Xingchen kindly saved you.
You betrayed his mercy.
You made the living into puppets and duped Xiao Xingchen.
You made Song Lan like this.
You didn't even spare A-Qing, a young girl.
Laughing?!
You can still laugh out loud?
You disgusted him.
Yet you want to bring him back to play stupid games.
Who said I'd play games with him?
Then why'd you plead with me to mend his soul?
I tell you, Cloud Recesses clearly knew.
You will feel great. I like you...to drink this.
Mm. Like Wei Wuxian, enjoy this drink.
