Xie Lian and the men from the caravan search for the antidote. They hear a scream from the brush nearby and find a half-buried human face that summons the Half-Moon soldiers and General Millstone. They capture Xie Lian and his men and take them to the Sinners’ Pit. The General asks Xie Lian to choose two people to throw down. Xie Lian distracts him by speaking Half-Moon, while preparing to jump.
Pour échapper à une tempête de sable, Xie Lian et San Lang se réfugient dans une grotte où ils découvrent une étrange tablette en pierre… et bien d'autres dangers.
