Bai Cai found the jade pendant that had fallen from Wu Geng. She discovered this jade pendant belonged to King Xin and guessed that A Gou went to collect King Xin's body for the jade pendant. Bai Cai thought this jade pendant could support the several orphans in her family for several years, and she no longer doubted A Gou's identity.

Wu Geng asked for the jade pendant, but Bai Cai refused to return it, saying that he brought back an injured person, and eating and taking medicine all required money. For General An, Wu Geng could only temporarily endure. To help General An recover from his injuries quickly, Bai Cai specially cooked fish soup for him.

Although Wu Geng greatly disliked the gruel prepared by Bai Cai, thinking that his current identity was the commoner A Gou, he could only wolf down the gruel in his hand. Bai Cai felt unwell and in a dream in the middle of the night, she thought of the scene of her first meeting with A Gou.

At that time, young Bai Cai endured hunger and cold, and it was A Gou who appeared and gave her the food in his hand. From then on, the two depended on each other for survival. Wu Geng woke up and found Bai Cai groggy. The orphans at home told Wu Geng that whenever Bai Cai's old illness recurred in the past, A Gou would cure her. Wu Geng didn't understand how to treat illnesses.

He originally wanted to help Bai Cai find medicine, but Bai Cai couldn't hold on and fainted. Wu Geng hurriedly took Bai Cai to a medical clinic in the city to treat her illness. The doctor at the clinic said that treating Bai Cai's illness required a lot of money. After Bai Cai woke up and learned this, she said she didn't need the doctor's treatment.

Bai Cai said that previously, A Gou helped treat her illness, but the current A Gou was no longer the previous A Gou. Wu Geng could only explain that he had forgotten his past events. Soldiers on the street were conscripting labor to work in the mines. Wu Geng and Bai Cai hurriedly left the medical clinic, but they didn't expect to be intercepted by soldiers halfway there. Wu Geng learned that the law had been modified by Zhou Qiao.

Except for the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled, all other people with labor capacity had to go to the mine. Wu Geng attacked the soldiers and successfully chased them away. Bai Cai saw Wu Geng's skills and understood that he was truly not the original A Gou. On the way back home, Wu Geng and Bai Cai encountered a white tiger attack. Wu Geng told Bai Cai to run first, leaving him alone to deal with the white tiger.

Bai Cai was unwilling to abandon Wu Geng. She turned back to help and just happened to see the white tiger attacking Wu Geng. It turned out this white tiger was Zha Zha's mount. Zha Zha saw Wu Geng had good skills and ordered his subordinate soldiers to take the two away directly. General An secretly saw Wu Geng and Bai Cai being captured.

He originally wanted to take action to rescue the two, but Wu Geng signaled with his eyes for General An not to be impulsive. Afterwards, he left a letter telling General An to temporarily endure. The soldiers escorting Wu Geng and others took a liking to Bai Cai's beauty. Bai Cai noticed their gaze and deliberately leaned on Wu Geng, making others mistakenly think they were husband and wife.

Wu Geng noticed Bai Cai's intention and verbally threatened the officer not to eye his wife, otherwise he would use force against the other party. On the road, Wu Geng and Bai Cai met the slaves Xiao Shang and Shi Tou. From them, Wu Geng learned that they were heading to the Beishan Mine on this trip, and that anyone who entered the Beishan Mine would only see the light of day again upon death.

After Wu Geng and many commoners arrived at the mine, Chen Jing also came to the mine with his son Zha Zha. He instructed the conscripted commoners to work hard and dig for Bloodstone for the Immortal Clan. Some commoners were unwilling to be slaves for mining and were immediately beheaded by the soldiers on the spot. Under such threat, the captured commoners could only endure. All slaves who entered the mine had to be branded with a slave mark.

Wu Geng was unwilling to be branded. He publicly questioned all the commoners, asking if they were really going to be slaves of the Immortal Clan for a lifetime. These words caused dissatisfaction among the soldiers on the spot, and both sides started fighting. Bai Cai's Cold Poison acted up, and Wu Geng was also captured because he was worried about Bai Cai. Afterwards, he was left with the mark of being a slave on his body.

As soon as Wu Geng and everyone arrived at the mine, they were required to work. There was an officer at the mine who harassed Bai Cai. Wu Geng publicly told others that Bai Cai was his wife. Although the officer was dissatisfied in his heart, in order not to cause unrest, he could only let Bai Cai go. Wu Geng was worried that Bai Cai, whose Cold Poison was acting up, couldn't hold on.

He wanted to demand today's food for everyone, but Wu Geng's attitude caused the centurion to be dissatisfied, resulting in the slaves present having their food allowance halved today. Wu Geng's ability to change the current situation with force was limited, so he could only temporarily endure. The bell rang, signaling the slaves' mealtime. Everyone swarmed forward, scrambling for food. However, the food that Bai Cai and Shi Tou and others had finally managed to grab was deliberately knocked away by the officer.
