## Story

Zhang Rishan and Liang Wan become trapped and injured by falling debris. Liang Wan treated Zhang Rishan's wound and he started to open up about his past. He was one of Zhang Qishan's top three lieutenants. He went on to tell her that Fo Ye was of a similar age to Grandma Wu which meant that he was also a lot older than he appeared. He was likely a little over a hundred years. Liang Wan was in disbelief and thought he was joking. But she came to accept it and he also came to accept that she may be from the Wang Clan. They suddenly heard the snake tree moving and decided to try to find a way out. Liang Wan saw a door at the end of the tunnel, but Zhang Rishan thought it was inaccessible. She insisted they try, only to find that the door had no handle. She leaned against it and the door burst upon. They went through and locked it from the inside. The room was not empty and had food and water that could last them a long while.

Liang Wan wanted to know why Zhang Rishan went to Gu Tongjing back then. He said it was because Fo Ye wanted to know the secret to the song of Gu Tongjing. They restored Gu Tongjing and Fo Ye brought a team to explore the area. They had entered the city in the fall season. When they got deeper in the city, a strong wind blew and it blew continuously. They found a map with the words "Gu Tongjing" on it. The map outlined the enormous city showing that it was like a wind tunnel. The wind would blow and create music. However, the city was incomplete and the music was inconsistent. So, Fo Ye ordered them to repair the city to hear the full song. They managed to finish the city, but before they could hear the song, strange things started to happen. Zhang Rishan knew the wind blew on a set cycle and should come in two weeks.

Wu Xie was able to find a river and some fish in the snowy mountains. He cooked the fish in the cave with Su Nan who had lost her eyesight because of snow blindness. They stayed there for three days until Su Nan's eyes could recover. At one point, Wu Xie had given her his jacket to keep her warm, but as a consequence he became cold to the touch. She tried to warm him up by putting his jacket back on and using her breath to warm his hands. He eventually woke up and was surprised she hadn't left him. They exchanged pleasantries and she promised not to kill him until they were able to get out of the snowy mountain.

Hei Yanjing returned Su Wan to his home. Su Wan was still worried about Liang Wan and Li Cu, but Hei Yanjing told him not to worry. He also told him to find him if he ever got bored with his life. Su Wan insisted he would not be helpful. Hei Yanjing took off his glasses and gave them to Su Wan. He told him about the glasses shop printed on the glasses and that Su Wan can find him there if he missed him. Su Wan was worried that he didn't have any glasses to wear now, but Hei Yanjing opened his jacket to reveal a plethora of glasses available to him.

Yang Hao was driven home by Huo Daofu. Huo Daofu asked him again if he wanted to stay with him, but Yang Hao said he wanted to go home. Huo Daofu gave him his card and the other left. Yang Hao went in and discovered that his grandmother had died while he was gone. When some people came to his store to cause trouble, his grandmother couldn't resist them and had a heart attack.

Li Cu woke up in a strange room and was connected to an IV. His leg was in a cast and he started to roam the facility he was at with a crutch. A woman speaking Russian came up to him, concerned that he was walking around. He eventually collapsed.
