Episode 17 recap: Zhang Youtao is the mastermind behind the scenes.
When Zhang Changhai was violating Xie Ping An, she desperately called for help. At this moment, Fan Wu Jiu came to her rescue, but he was no match for Zhang Changhai. In the end, the two of them started fighting, and it seemed that Fan Wu Jiu was being overpowered and unable to resist while being pressed down in the bathtub. Xie Ping An ran over to help, but unfortunately, she was too weak. At this moment, Fan Wu Jiu was being choked, and realizing that he was about to die, Zhang Changhai directly revealed the truth. He admitted that he was the one who killed the people in Taoyuan Village because they had discovered the village's secret.
He deliberately shifted the blame onto Xie Ping An. As soon as Fan Wu Jiu heard this, he immediately became furious and fought back desperately, eventually overpowering Zhang Changhai and drowning him in the bathtub. Yushi informed her father of Zhang Changhai's death, and upon hearing the news, Zhang Youtao gathered people to capture Fan Wu Jiu and Xie Ping An.
The villagers caught up with Xie Ping An, but she risked herself to lead them away from Fan Wu Jiu's safety. In the meantime, Fan Wu Jiu managed to reach Bao Ge and Zhang Fengzi. It turned out that Zhang Fengzi had stolen Wang Hai's body. Originally, he did it to help Fan Wu Jiu, but unexpectedly it ended up harming him. In the beginning, he infiltrated the Yizhuang and placed Wang Hai's body in a corner, then secretly took it away.
He didn't want Fan Wu Jiu to follow in his parents' footsteps. It was his parents who had discovered the secret, and Zhang Youtao, in order to eliminate any dissenting voices, had Meng Po and Yushi as his accomplices. Taoyuan Town has no formation. If they want to leave this village, the first thing they need to do is to expose Zhang Youtao.
