Sword and Fairy 4 Episode 8 Recap
> Sword and Fairy 4 Recap
Liu Mengli stopped the Zither Lady's hand playing the zither. Only then did Yun Tianhe and Han Lingsha seem to wake up as if for the first time. Her master once told Liu Mengli that there is a kind of illusionary music technique called "Soul Seizure" (She Xin), which is very similar to Liu Mengli's "Drunken Life, Dreamy Death" (Zui Sheng Meng Si).
However, hers can only make people act slowly, while "Soul Seizure" can make people fall into a long-term coma. It is an extremely sinister and evil technique. The Zither Lady, however, said that she doesn't understand techniques and plays the zither here only hoping her husband can hear her. The Zither Lady's husband has passed away. The Qin family placed his coffin in the residence for salvation rituals, and the Zither Lady only wanted to see him once, nothing more.
The Qin family invited masters to set up protective measures, so she couldn't get close at all. The Zither Lady once wandered the jianghu, and after meeting her husband, she gave up the jianghu. However, her husband was born weak. His parents were superstitious and stubborn, believing that the Zither Lady's widowed fate would bring death to her husband, which is why the Zither Lady left a letter and ran away. One separation became a permanent farewell.
Liu Mengli and Han Lingsha deeply sympathized with the Zither Lady. Han Lingsha thought of her sister, Han Lingxiang, who once said she would wait for her return. Han Lingsha believed the Zither Lady's words, but Liu Mengli worried that her zither music contained the "Soul Seizure" technique. Murong Ziying descended from the sky. Han Lingsha quickly blocked his path in front of the Zither Lady.
Seeing Murong Ziying insisted on taking the Zither Lady away, Liu Mengli used a technique to make him enter her illusionary realm, deciding to help the Zither Lady fulfill her wish. With the help of the three, the Zither Lady saw Qin Yi's coffin and his cousin Ms. Jiang. However, after the Zither Lady left, Ms. Jiang became Qin Yi's concubine. Murong Ziying easily found the formation's core and broke free from the illusion. Ms.
Jiang was accusing the Zither Lady of abandoning Qin Yi and wandering the world, saying she absolutely wouldn't let her see Qin Yi. The Zither Lady was heartbroken and raised a knife to commit suicide, but was stopped by Liu Mengli. It turned out that the Zither Lady truly didn't know that she was already dead. That day, the Zither Lady received a letter saying Qin Yi had passed away, and she died of grief.
Her obsession gathered and formed a zither spirit, which infected those who listened to her music, causing so many common people to fall into a coma. The deeper the emotions in one's heart, the easier one is bound. Han Lingsha's eyes turned red. The Zither Lady knelt down and begged Ms. Jiang to let her see Qin Yi one last time. Only then could the sleeping sickness be resolved, and she could no longer burden the people of Chenzhou.
The Zither Lady saw Qin Yi with her own eyes. They could finally play music together, united regardless of life or death. The Zither Lady played one last tune in front of Qin Yi. Yun Tianhe, Han Lingsha, and Liu Mengli were all moved by the music, and the Zither Lady's spirit gradually dissipated there. Murong Ziying turned away where others couldn't see and shed two streams of clear tears.
At night, Yun Tianhe, Han Lingsha, and Liu Mengli sat on the rooftop talking. Han Lingsha told them that after her parents passed away, she and her cousin Han Lingxiang relied on each other. But now her cousin is seriously ill in bed, and her reason for venturing into the jianghu is the same as the Zither Lady's. Han Lingsha was afraid of her sister leaving her. Yun Tianhe also seemed to gradually understand what love is.
The three of them promised to stay together forever and be happy forever. The zither spirit dissipated, but Bei Ke's plan did not stop. He used Feng Xie's last shred of primal spirit to threaten Wen Yao into working for him. The Zither Lady incident was resolved, but the sleeping sickness was not cured; many people continued to be in a coma. Murong Ziying found a bead in the zither and hoped Liu Mengli would examine it.
Han Lingsha made Hundred Date Ginkgo Porridge for Yun Tianhe, but she felt very sleepy and tired. Liu Mengli discovered there were chi patterns on the bead, but she couldn't understand them either. Yun Tianhe thought Han Lingsha might know. But when the three rushed to the kitchen, they found Han Lingsha had fallen into a coma. The emotional ties in her heart were too strong, making her easily infected.
Yun Tianhe was determined to search all of Chenzhou to cure the sleeping sickness. Murong Ziying was going to find an uncle-master from the Shushan Sect to decipher the chi patterns. Yun Tianhe was eager to go out with him, but Han Lingsha suddenly got up, saying she was just asleep, and suggested they split into two groups, going with Yun Tianhe to investigate the Zither Lady's whereabouts. However, Han Lingsha's tone changed greatly, calling Yun Tianhe "wild boy".
Murong Ziying quietly told Yun Tianhe an incantation. Han Lingsha's gaze was very unfocused. Murong Ziying wanted to know Liu Mengli's master. Liu Mengli answered truthfully that she didn't know her name, only that they shared a master-disciple fate, and she taught Liu Mengli everything she knew. This person was Murong Ziying's first master, Su Shen. She had left Qionghua Sect ten years ago.
Liu Mengli felt that Han Lingsha was a bit strange after waking up, but Murong Ziying had already taught Yun Tianhe some techniques, which should be useful in an emergency. Dao Zhen said after examining the bead that it was a thought technique artifact. To investigate this matter, Liu Mengli decided to use her spiritual power to control the illusionary music technique and send Murong Ziying inside to investigate.
However, it was very dangerous; if he didn't come out within an hour, he would never be able to come out. Han Lingsha tried every means to get Yun Tianhe out of the city. Yun Tianhe also noticed something was wrong with her. When Murong Ziying entered the zither, the scene he saw was of himself playing with his master Su Shen in his childhood.
Su Shen said Qionghua Sect was not suitable for her and she wanted to bid him farewell. Su Shen suddenly looked at Murong Ziying and wanted to take him away. Murong Ziying reached out his hand and was almost enchanted. Fortunately, Liu Mengli's words made him sober up.
