Yuan Zhong and the other two returned to the inn. Ji Tanyin gave Yuan Zhong a long list of IOUs. She didn't know that Qian Lin was the war ghost assassin on the boat and hoped that Yuan Zhong could save Qian Lin. Yuan Zhong was unhappy, so she drove Ji Tanyin out. Ji Tanyin was angry and asked Yuan Zhong for wages.Pei Jiu agreed to help Yunniang build the stove, and planned to marry Yunniang as his wife. Yuan Zhong felt uneasy when he learned about it, so he ordered Zifei to secretly investigate Pei Jiu's origin.
Ji Tanyin plagiarized the silver to Yunniang to save the person, and went to the backyard to distribute the camellia tree oil. Yuan Zhong looked upstairs at the innocent Ji Tanyin with a gentle expression.Zifei reported to Yuanzhong that Pei Jiu was an outsider of Orange Lake. He had lost his memory and was later adopted by an old captain in the town. Yuanzhong guessed that Pei Jiu was Lu Chen who had lost his memory and planned to try to awaken Lu Chen's memory with his divine hands.Ji Tanyin used a bamboo dragonfly to inquire about Pei Jiu's whereabouts.
Yuan Zhong and Ji Tanyin found Pei Jiu in the ruined temple. Yuan Zhong said that Pei Jiu was talented and wanted to accept him as his disciple, but instead was ridiculed by Pei Jiu.Yuan Zhong competed with Pei Jiu in martial arts. During the competition, he felt that Pei Jiu was seriously injured, his meridians were blocked, and his luck was not good. He suggested that he could treat Pei Jiu, but Pei Jiu refused.
