Sword Comes.

Summary

In a small town, Song Ji Xin and his maid, Zhi Gui, encounter an old man telling tales under a locust tree. He recounts the legend of a powerful immortal who hunted Flood Dragons for centuries. While the townsfolk remain indifferent, Song Ji Xin dismisses the old man's stories as fanciful nonsense. As he reflects on his family's influence and the maid's mysterious past, he contemplates the rigid nature of a local kiln worker, Chen Ping An. The narrative explores themes of fate, social status, and the contrast between knowledge and ignorance, culminating in Song Ji Xin's lighthearted banter about a snake and his aspirations for the capital's literary treasures.
