## Story

Li Cu insisted that he wanted to see Xiao Man Ge. Xiao Man Ge was the same dog Li Cu saw at Wushanju and was the Wu Clan's dog. Xiao Man Ge ran up to Li Cu like he recognized him. He was trained by Wu Laogou. Wu Xie was able to put his grandfather's ashes into Li Cu's wounds when he first met him, so the other would have his scent in order for the dogs to recognize him as Wu Laogou. The Wu family immediately respected Li Cu and wanted to bring Li Cu back to Wushanju. But people from other families didn't plan to let him go so easily. Although they didn't dare to move Li Cu, Yang Hao was in their hands.

According to Wu Xie's instructions, Li Cu told the whole story to Xiao Man Ge from beginning to end. But Li Cu described a treasure room and drew a map for them. Li Cu tried to get out of going down with them, but Huo Dao Fu said that they could just bring Yang Hao instead. Li Cu became upset at this and promised to go down instead. But the Nine Clan members thought it would be good to bring down Yang Hao too.

Huo Dao Fu left and went to get Yang Hao. He lied to Yang Hao and said that Li Cu recommended he go down with them. The two of them returned to the group and Yang Hao became angry with Li Cu. Li Cu left and the Nine Clan members, including Huo Dao Fu, tried to convince Yang Hao that Li Cu had changed and was out to get him. Later, Huo Dao Fu let Yang Hao run around and he chose to pick a fight with Li Cu. Everyone broke them apart. Chen Jin Shui and Huo Dao Fu discussed how useful Yang Hao will be, but Chen Jin Shui thought Huo Dao Fu's antics were childish. Huo Dao Fu told him and his generation were too old and that things are different now. The future belongs to him and his generation. Chen Jin Shui liked his tenacity and the two started discussing how they were going to screw over the other nine clan families there (Li, Huo, and Qi). They set off to find the treasure.

Li Cu was resting in the tent, when someone walked in. It was Shen Qiong. Li Cu was very happy to see that she was still alive, but Shen Qiong told Li Cu that her name was Huo Xiaoyuan here, and Li Cu understood that she was from the Huo family.

Hei Yanjing, Su Wan, and Liang Wan were still trapped between the cliffs and had not eaten. Hei Yanjing was preparing bugs to eat, but Liang Wan said she would rather die than not eat them. Suddenly they heard voices and people struggling, it was the Nine Clans. there was a voice from above. They eventually returned to camp after many of their people had died or suffered injuries. They only found a broken monument and were furious that Li Cu had lied to them. Yang Hao immediately threw Li Cu to the ground. He had joined the Chen family, but he hated Li Cu more and more.

Wu Xie and Wang Meng were in the car when Wu Xie gave him his salary and bonus but that Wang Meng was fired. Wu Xie didn't want Wang Meng to follow him on the adventure, so he left the car to Wang Meng and walked forward by himself. Wang Meng was still very angry at first, but he quickly understood and asked for Wu Xie's shop. He planned to go back and take care of it so that Wu Xie could have a place to stay when he returned. Wang Meng went back and passed Su Nan’s car.

As soon as Wu Xie walked to the foot of the snow-capped mountain, Su Nan brought people over and took out a knife to attack Wu Xie. Wu Xie planted a bomb on the cliff, and everyone fell of when he detonated the bomb. Su Nan and Wu Xie quickly woke up at the bottom of the cliff, but the others were all dead. Su Nan wanted to kill Wu Xie, but Wu Xie told her that the cliff in front would only be able to get by with two people. Su Nan didn't kill him and helped him up.
