Good And Evil Episode 4 Recap
> Good And Evil Recap
After leaving the city, Chun Yao and Han Sheng roasted their catch. Han Sheng, noticing blood on Chun Yao's wound, mistakenly thought he had killed Bai Shan. Chun Yao clarified that the blood was his own, from a wound inflicted by Bai Shan. Concerned, Han Sheng helped him bandage the injury, a gesture that softened Chun Yao’s typically cold demeanor.
Han Sheng, uneasy, pressed him about when she could be released, but Chun Yao teased her, questioning if she was worried about a demon like Bai Shan. Meanwhile, Bu Fan pursued Kui'er, whom he had found at a brothel. He was puzzled by the absence of demon energy from her, though he remembered sensing it the day before.
While Bu Fan went to fetch water, a voice from a fan in Kui'er's possession lured her to a riverside, promising her heart's desire. The voice, belonging to Bai Shan, offered Kui'er beauty in exchange for ten years of her lifespan, saying that beauty was a woman's best weapon. Kui'er, yearning for affection, agreed. Bu Fan, alerted by his mind-clearing bells, arrived as Bai Shan was about to complete the transaction.
He confronted Bai Shan, who mocked his reliance on artifacts. Later, while Chun Yao and Han Sheng were eating, they overheard people discussing a haunting at the Yang Mansion and the unconscious state of Young Master Yang. Chun Yao, suspecting Bai Shan's involvement due to her lingering presence in the town, took Han Sheng to the mansion. There, they met Miss Zhao, whose face transformed into a monstrous one at midnight, reverting at dawn.
Miss Zhao, recently married to Young Master Yang, pleaded with Chun Yao, mistaking him for a master, to save her husband. Chun Yao agreed to help Young Master Yang but said that Miss Zhao's condition was the price of her dealings with a demon and could not be reversed. Miss Zhao revealed that Bai Shan frequented the Town God's Temple, targeting women wishing for beauty under the Spiritual Tree, tricking them into trading their lifespans.
Han Sheng suggested a plan: she would disguise herself as an ugly woman to lure Bai Shan out. Chun Yao, finding her "agile and plain" appearance perfect for the role, agreed, despite Han Sheng's protests. He promised to help Han Sheng look better for the role and stressed that her task was to capture Bai Shan. Disturbed by Bai Shan’s earlier illusions, Bu Fan attempted to clear his mind. However, his mind-clearing bells rang again, signaling Bai Shan's presence.
He found Bai Shan continuing her enchantment on Kui'er. Bai Shan trapped Bu Fan in an illusion showing a past memory, possibly of a woman he loved. His master’s voice reminded him to stay focused. Breaking free, Bu Fan realized he was witnessing Bai Shan's past: Bai Shan and Liu Yunsu, her beloved, who were Chun Yao’s attendants. In this memory, Bai Shan persuaded a reluctant Liu Yunsu to venture with her to the Wangliang Abyss, despite the dangers.
There, they were attacked by Si Mao, who gravely wounded Liu Yunsu and caused Bai Shan to faint, only for Chun Yao to arrive and stop the attack. Bu Fan then witnessed Bai Shan's desire to revive Liu Yunsu using human lifespans. Bu Fan tried to convince her that it was all an illusion and to abandon her destructive path, but Bai Shan cast him aside, resolute in her goal to resurrect Liu Yunsu.
Kui'er, witnessing Bu Fan's pain, expressed her unrequited love for him, but Bu Fan, explained that his focus was on catching demons, not romance, and advised her to love herself more. Following the plan, Han Sheng, disguised as an ugly woman, made her wish for beauty at the temple. Bai Shan appeared, offering the usual ten-year lifespan exchange. Just as the transaction was about to take place, Chun Yao arrived.
Bai Shan accused Chun Yao of hypocrisy, reminding him of the death of Liu Yunsu. Han Sheng overheard this accusation. Chun Yao admonished Bai Shan for attempting resurrection, urging her to return with him. Bai Shan vowed to revive Liu Yunsu or die trying. During the ensuing battle, Han Sheng rubbed the magical mark on her wrist against a stone, causing Chun Yao immense pain, which allowed Bai Shan to flee.
Han Sheng returned to Chun Yao, who lay coughing blood, and expressed concern for his injury. Chun Yao then removed the remaining trace of the mark from her hand. Han Sheng, troubled by Bai Shan’s words, asked Chun Yao whether he truly killed Liu Yunsu. Chun Yao revealed that Bai Shan and Liu Yunsu were once his attendants, serving him for nearly a thousand years.
