Episode 11 recap: Song Shi Jie successfully solved the case.
After being hypnotized by Nian Shan Shan, Yang Liu recalled being prevented from smoking opium by his wife, which made him angry and resentful towards her. He secretly engaged in a complicated relationship with Ying Tao, which was discovered by his wife. Yang Liu was frightened of his wife and wanted to quietly slip away while she was busy picking cherries. Yang Liu was addicted to opium but didn't have money to buy it. His wife had also hidden it from him. He entrusted Ying Tao to buy him cigarettes and instructed her to take a long vacation.
Only then did Song Shi Jie realize that Yang Liu intentionally made Ying Tao the suspect, creating an illusion of fleeing in fear of punishment to divert attention. Ling Long felt that these two girls had suffered greatly for falling in love with this man. When Yang Liu woke up and saw the people around him, he was surprised and bewildered. He didn't expect that he would blurt out the truth. Song Shi Jie directly exposed Yang Liu's conspiracy. He knew that every time Yang Liu dreamed, his hands were stained with blood, and he was afraid that the spirits would come for him.
Yang Liu was overwhelmed with regret and pain, but there was no way out. Suddenly, his face changed drastically, showing a terrifying expression. He felt too ashamed to live in this world and prepared to hang himself. Upon hearing of Yang Liu's death, Xiao Feng and Song A Jiu didn't feel sympathy or regret; they believed that Yang Liu got what he deserved.
Ying Tao wept bitterly in front of her wife and children's graves. She couldn't understand how Song Shi Jie knew she wasn't the murderer. Song Shi Jie explicitly told Ying Tao that he knew she treated Yang Liu's two children as her own and couldn't have harmed them. In fact, Ying Tao genuinely loved those two children, but she knew that she had no chance of reversing the false accusations in court. She could only bear the injustice and hope that the children would be reincarnated soon.
Song Shi Jie advised Ying Tao to leave this place of sorrow and start a new life elsewhere. Ling Long gave Ying Tao a doll, hoping she would embark on a new life after leaving. Song Shi Jie also knew that Ling Long felt very sorry for Ying Tao.
Song Shi Jie believed that if the majority of people believed in a particular truth, it might be wrong, and the answer trusted by only a few individuals might be the correct one. Ling Long wondered why they couldn't reveal the truth of this matter to everyone. Song Shi Jie said that instead of exposing the complexity and brutality involved, it would be better to present an inspiring love story. That night, Song Shi Jie had another dream, this time about his father.
Song A Jiu felt that Guangzhou was a good place, so why travel all the way to Jingdezhen? Song Shi Jie believed that being there would provide distance and the advantage of being able to practice martial arts.
As they were talking, they looked up and saw the robbers. They pretended to be blind, trying to buy time and deceive the robbers.
Song Shi Jie saw that one of the robbers had a dirty steamed bun and forced Song A Jiu to eat it. They could have escaped, but Song A Jiu ruined their act, and the robbers realized they were being tricked. Suddenly, a hero arrived and saved them. In the beginning, Song Shi Jie told Song A Jiu that the robbers were not that scary, but when they met Ling Long, he cried and said the robbers were dangerous. This confused Song A Jiu.
At night, Ling Long saw a rocking chair and felt terrified when four people stood there. After some people beat the lower-class individuals to death and threw them into a pile of corpses, they didn't realize that one person managed to quietly escape. Song Shi Jie saw a Taoist priest who said he was facing a disaster involving bloodshed. Initially, he didn't believe it and thought it was a fantasy, but Ling Long took it seriously and asked her husband not to go to court for seven days.
While turning a corner, Song Shi Jie suddenly encountered the Taoist priest, but he disappeared in an instant. This made Song Shi Jie start to believe what the teacher had said. When he returned home, he found a person lying on the ground. Xiao Fu Gui told Song Shi Jie that they were forced to work in the mines on the mountain and were beaten by people who were colluding with the officials.
After hearing about this, Ling Long wanted her husband to help them. Song Shi Jie tried to provoke Fu Gui, but Fu Gui kneeled in front of him, asking for help for his brothers. When Song Shi Jie heard the boss's name, Wang Hao Xin, he immediately felt that the boss was sarcastic and mean.
Wang Hao Xin started recruiting people for mining again, and when everyone heard about Jiang Jin Feng, they eagerly signed up. Ling Long couldn't bear to see this and exposed their conspiracy on the spot, trying to stop them. Wang Hao Xin's subordinates sensed that something was wrong and quietly slipped away.
Song Shi Jie found it cute to see his wife arguing there and burst into laughter momentarily. However, those people didn't believe what Ling Long said. Song Shi Jie noticed a beautiful woman nearby and wanted to strike up a conversation. When Ling Long saw Song Shi Jie flirting with the woman, she became furious. At that moment, Song Shi Jie hadn't realized he was engrossed in talking to the woman.
