Episode 9
Fleeing the pursuing assassins, Zhang Hailou used his exceptional martial arts skills to carry He Jianxi up to the third floor, slipping into Steven's private bathroom while the killers searched the lower decks. Exhausted and weak, Zhang Hailou revealed to He Jianxi that he had been poisoned. He Jianxi sarcastically remarked that as the dreaded Plague, Zhang Hailou should have planned for such a setback. Ignoring the banter, Zhang Hailou focused on their immediate survival.
Episode 13
Zhang Haiqi returned to the Dong Mansion, heavily wounded from her previous encounter at the military base. Recognizing the imminent danger, she urged Mr. Dong to take his family and flee Xiacheng immediately, suggesting they go out to sea. However, Mr. Dong refused to leave her behind. He reasoned that because they were in the foreign concession and she was widely known as the daughter of the influential Ship King, no one would dare to make a move against them.
Episode 8
He Jianxi slowly regained consciousness after being in a coma for an entire day, only to find himself confronted by a startling truth. He asked the man before him if he was truly the infamous Plague. Zhang Hailou merely smiled, praising Jianxi’s incredibly sharp sense of smell, which allowed him to detect even the faintest trace of turmeric. The talent strongly reminded Hailou of his close friend, Zhang Haixia. Hailou had already packed up almost all of Jianxi’s belongings.
Episode 14
Zhang Hailou finally steps into the Southern Archives, a moment he has anticipated for ten years. His companion, who is posing as He Jianxi, marvels at the spectacular sight and asks what the Archives actually does. Zhang Hailou explains that it was a secret organization under the Maritime Supervisory Office, dedicated to investigating and cataloging all the bizarre anomalies of the southern lands.
Episode 7
Zhang Haixia was not trapped in a fantasy. He knew he had been poisoned because he smelled the distinct stench of cured meat when he first met Chen Xifeng—a foul odor that went entirely unnoticed by the others on the ship. Realizing his perception was altered, he knew his mind was playing tricks on him. Despite his paralyzed legs, his intellect remained fully functional, allowing him to set a series of traps in his room to capture his assailant.
Episode 15
Lu Junxiang cornered Zhang Haiqi, confidently declaring that she had run out of places to escape. However, Zhang Haiqi remained unfazed, having already prepared a way out. Just as Lu Junxiang's men rushed into the chamber, the ocean water that had begun pouring into the underground ruins suddenly breached the walls, violently flooding the area and sweeping the henchmen away. Seizing the opportunity, Zhang Haiqi pinned Lu Junxiang down by trapping his leg under a massive boulder.
Episode 6
In a deep shaft in the ship's hold, Zhang Hailou discovered a body trapped by a living Evil God. Seeing flies swarming around it, he deduced the person had died recently and decided to climb down to investigate. He instructed Steven to stay above as a lookout. If any danger arose or if the creature reanimated, Steven was supposed to break the head off a small hostage statue they had; otherwise, they would both be doomed.
Episode 16
Continuing from their long separation, the two brothers finally reunite. Overjoyed to see his brother awake, Zhang Hailou eagerly moves in for a warm embrace. However, their mentor, Zhang Haiqi, interrupts the emotional moment by tossing an object that strikes and lightly injures Zhang Hailou. Though Zhang Haixia is happy to be awake, he secretly senses a strange, inexplicable sensation stirring deep within himself.
Episode 5
Determined to uncover the truth and save Zhang Haixia as quickly as possible, Zhang Hailou began his investigation on the Nan'an. To gather clues, he played cards with three crew members, deliberately losing money to get them to talk. Once Steven grew tired of watching him lose and stepped outside after lending him some money, Zhang Hailou distributed the cash among the crew.
Episode 17
Zhang Haixia and Zhang Hailou spent the evening drinking together at home. After Hailou drank too much and lamented that things might have been different if he had been the one crippled, he fell asleep at the table. Seeking some fresh air, Haixia went out into the streets. There, he came across a group of drunk thugs viciously tormenting a helpless beggar.
