Episode 5 recap: Chen Mu Kun stole meat.
People around Jin Ye found a sign on the Bing ranking list, stating that Jin Ye had done many bad things, which is why the turtle died. Jin Ye was very angry and said that he had donated so much money to Chen Mu Kun for temple expenses, and yet Chen Mu Kun still acted this way. Chen Mu Kun said that it should have been Jin Ye who encountered trouble, but he used his magic to let the turtle take the hit for Jin Ye.
Only then did Jin Ye become happy. Chen Mu Kun talked about this matter and felt frustrated, not knowing who wanted to harm Jin Ye and also target himself. Chen Mu Kun said that the turtle was obviously poisoned by someone, and that person must have poisoned the turtle and put up the sign. Lv Dong Bin believed that Jin Ye had done something bad, and the victim was seeking revenge.
He Xian Gu's husband, Li Xiao Fei, went gambling and lost a lot of money. Now he can't pay it back and doesn't have money to buy inventory. He Xian Gu found out about this and scolded Li Xiao Fei severely. The two children pleaded, and He Xian Gu took out her dowry to help Li Xiao Fei repay the debt. Lv Dong Bin came out and saw Li Xiao Fei, who wanted to commit suicide, saying that he gambled away his wife's dowry again.
Lv Dong Bin said that people who die in vain have to repeat their suicides day after day, which frightened Li Xiao Fei, and he no longer dared to die. Jin Ye's gambling house caught fire, and Jin Ye went to Chen Mu Kun's place and found another sign from the Bing ranking list. Jin Ye was very angry. Chen Mu Kun went to inform the mayor, promising that as long as Jin Ye helped, they could catch the culprit within three days.
Li Xiao Fei's son, Li Hao De, came to Chen Mu Kun and posted a sign but was caught on the spot. Chen Mu Kun already knew it was him because only their family's restaurant would use that kind of oil on the sign. Jin Ye was very angry and took Li Hao De away. Lv Dong Bin and Bai Xue Hua came to the police station, worried that Jin Ye would abuse his power and wanted to save the person.
However, the captain stopped them and refused to go.
Li Xiaofei and the others came to seek help from Chen Mu Kun, but Chen Mu Kun was unwilling to assist. Lv Dong Bin asked Chen Mu Kun why, and Chen Mu Kun recalled the previous incident, stating that just because they prayed to the gods doesn't mean he must help them.
Li Haode was beaten by Jin Ye's people, so Li Xiaofei and the others came to plead with Jin Ye. Lv Dong Bin and the others also came, but Jin Ye was not afraid of them at all and refused to release the person. Chen Mu Kun also arrived and said that he came to uphold justice. He suggested that they gamble and see who wins. Jin Ye agreed and said that if Li Xiaofei's group won, he would release the person.
Chen Mu Kun told Li Xiaofei what to bet on, and Li Xiaofei bet on odd numbers. As expected, they won. Lv Dong Bin drew a longevity picture, and for some reason, Bai Xue Hua shed tears. They all had a meal together, and the dishes they ate were all vegetarian. Chen Mu Kun really wanted to eat meat.
Chen Mu Kun went to Li Xiaofei and said that there was too much killing happening on their side, so he wanted to take the plate of lamb back for a ritual. Unexpectedly, the mayor came. It was reserved for him because his wife had a poor appetite, so he wanted to buy it for her. Chen Mu Kun had no choice but to give up. However, the mayor's wife had a very poor appetite and couldn't eat it.
When Chen Mu Kun returned, he found there was meat. Bai Xue Hua noticed it and made it for Chen Mu Kun, but Chen Mu Kun told her to wash the bowls and pans clean. The next day, when Lv Dong Bin was eating, he noticed the smell of meat. Bai Xue Hua said that she made meat, but Chen Mu Kun felt that Bai Xue Hua was not that kind of person, and breaking the precepts was also normal.
Bai Xue Hua could only admit that she was wrong. Bai Xue Hua encountered Third Uncle outside, and Third Uncle expressed regret for selling her. However, Third Aunt became ill from working hard to earn money to redeem Bai Xue Hua, and now they have no money. They have a job that can make money and want Bai Xue Hua to do it.
Bai Xue Hua was unwilling. People from the Wen Xiang Yu Garden came to seek help from Chen Mu Kun, saying that there were ghosts causing trouble now, and business was very bad. Second Madam was in a bad mood and kept hitting them, so they wanted Chen Mu Kun's help. Chen Mu Kun asked about Bai Xue Hua's situation, and the girl said that Bai Xue Hua's uncle was a gambler and sold her because he couldn't repay the debt.
