The game show featuring the six participants offered viewers a welcome respite from their heartbreak, beyond the dramatic storyline.
But before the audience could recover, other characters in "A Hundred Years of Silence" also disappeared one after another.
After the old man's last wish was fulfilled, the poison master asked everyone to help him take revenge and kill the warlord who colluded with the enemy. However, the poison master did not seem to intend to leave. He spread poison everywhere, as if he wanted to take all the warlord's soldiers with him.
From the male protagonist's perspective, in the last glance of the poison master, there was not a trace of desire for life, only relief.
Poison Master's real name is Bai Xuanshen. He is a descendant of the Bai family, a century-old family of doctors. He was sent overseas by his family to study foreign medical techniques, but when he returned, the Bai family compound was reduced to ashes.
Later, while searching for his enemy, he was unexpectedly picked up by the old man.
The protagonist returned to the courtyard and dug out the "Bai Family Medical Canon" from under the poison master's bed. He wrapped it in oiled paper and buried it next to the old man. He could hear the poison master's words echoing in his ears: "I have never studied medicine, I only know how to use poison. Everyone in this world deserves to die."
The most crucial point in using poison is to leave no room for error; only poison without an antidote is the most potent.
But unexpectedly, he left the medical classic to the young male protagonist.
[Lin Gou, are you even human?! You might as well have just stabbed them all at once?! Knowing they would die, one after another, but not knowing who would be next, do you know how much my heart ached?!]
[I thought it was a poison manual left behind by the Bad Master, but when I saw the medical manual, tears just streamed down my face. Bad Master, really, I'll never call you venomous again.]
I felt like the bad guy was dead, and the bomb-wielding kids had all quieted down and stopped causing trouble. Watching this once bustling courtyard gradually empty, I just couldn't hold back my tears.
[It's only been fifty-something episodes, and there's still forty-something more?! You old dog Lin!!! Who drags someone out with a dull knife for a hundred episodes?! No sportsmanship!!!]
Before everyone could even grieve for two days, both the bomb-wielding boy and the monk met their demise.
When the bad guy was around, everyone still had direction. After the bad guy was gone, the bomb kid suddenly proposed to wipe out the world and blow up all the bad guys so that everyone could live a good life.
Before they could succeed a few times, the bomb kid was surrounded. The monk rushed down to save him, only to find that the bomb kid was covered in explosives, as if he had already made his choice.
The monk bought time for the bomber to explode, and in the end, both of them were killed in the explosion.
Whether this bomb killed many greedy warlords or whether there are always people who rise up in times of chaos, the domestic situation began to change, and people began to stand up to save the country.
The male protagonist and his aunt were not paying attention to what was happening outside the courtyard; he was busy sorting through the belongings of the monk and the bomb boy.
"The proportions have to be right, otherwise it will explode loudly!"
"I'll tell you a secret: my family's secret recipe. Add a little bit and it'll turn into fireworks; add a little more and the fireworks will have color."
"How could it be fake?! I swear on my life, the heads of my entire family. I just wonder where they are now? I wonder if they're as lucky as I am, and how they're doing?"
The bomb kid's family were imperial merchants. As soon as the enemy army entered the pass, they looted all the imperial palaces, including these incredibly wealthy merchants.
His family let him escape during the chaos, but he got separated from the others and never met them again for more than ten years until his death.
Compared to the bomber's wallet full of silver and precious gold and silver, the monk's possessions seemed quite few.
There was only a wooden fish and a scripture.
The monk could turn a thin leaf into a deadly weapon for picking flowers and throwing leaves, and the other party always had a lingering sorrow between their brows.
"If I die one day, I will have the opportunity to go to the temple on Qingfeng Mountain and find Master Baiyun to tell him that even if I go to hell after death, I will not regret it."
This was also the only time that the monk and he talked the most outside of learning martial arts.
Every time the monk returned from a mission, he would chant sutras, as if to pray for the souls of the people who had been killed. However, the protagonist knew that he was not praying for the souls of the warlords. He had seen a clarity in the monk's eyes that he had never seen before, like a straight beam of light that illuminated the way forward without ever turning back.
[Fine, fine, fine, this time you've changed it to two people at once, amazing! I told you to kill them all, and you dragged them out one by one with dull blades. I just accepted being killed one by one, and now you've sent another pair away. You really know how to play the game, Director Lin. Do you have to make me cry my heart out before you're satisfied?!]
The monk's eyes were so clear and bright; I realized that despite his quiet demeanor, his martial arts skills were surprisingly formidable. Although he couldn't dodge bullets like the old man, he could use anything at hand as a hidden weapon, and his lightness skill was remarkable—I hadn't even noticed him before.
[All martial arts under heaven originated from Shaolin, and monks should be too, judging by their physique, they were probably martial monks. I wonder why they left the temple in the end.]
[I suddenly have a theory. In the protagonist's flashback, the monk asked him to deliver a message that he wouldn't regret even if he went to hell. Didn't the bomb-wielding kid mention earlier that the monk had killed someone before? It was all over the city. Could it be that someone was bullying the weak, and the monk, acting as a Good Samaritan, killed them, was brought to trial, but before the verdict was handed down, the dynasty was overthrown, and the old man got the monk out?]
[It's possible. Bomb Boy said the monk had killed people, but he wasn't afraid of the monk at all, and there was no awkwardness between them. I guess Bomb Boy knows why the monk killed people.]
Just as the audience was piecing together the past of the monk and the bomb boy based on the existing clues, the aunt also died.
However, she died peacefully, because she seemed to have a premonition before going on the mission and said a lot to the male protagonist.
"The most important thing in shooting is aiming."
