第9話: Zimingが上海でZhang Liangに暗号化されたBlack Dragon Scrollを渡す

9

Back at their headquarters with the Confucians, the Mohists, discuss their strategy, and the power of Star Wraith who can use his Yin and Yang skills create a deadly blade from thin air. Although General Meng failed to capture Ne Gie and find the Mohist's hideout, Emperor Ying Zheng realises that they are close to finding them, and redoubles his efforts. Master Ban reveals that he had extracted the Black Dragon Scroll from the mechanism before Tianming (Ziming) triggered the defence system, but the text is written in a code. They entrust the scroll to Ziming to take it to Shanghai for Zhang Liang (Zifang) the Third Manager of Confucians to decipher. Zhang Liang had stayed in the city overnight at Pao Ding's inn because of the curfew, and encounters Gongsun Linglong in the early morning. She artfully interrogates him about his movements, but is interrupted by Ziming who distracts her by calling her “fat aunt” although she suspects that the inn holds some secrets. However, when Ziming gives Zhang Liang the bamboo holder it is empty, the scroll is not there. (Source: Wikipedia)
