Episode synopsis
Jiang Liu'er, who was covered in wounds and haggard in mind, came back to Lingyun Temple and surprised everyone. Master Yuande of Cangjing Lou told Jiang Liuer who was kneeling in front of him that he was not suitable for becoming a monk. In Jiang Liu'er's heart, there will always be Go, and Go is Jiang Liu'er's life. Yuande pointed to the countless Go books in the Sutra Library, and asked Jiang Liu'er to study hard, and told Jiang Liu'er that these Go seniors would have a good conversation with him. Jiang Liu'er looked up at the star-studded sky, and with Master Yuande's words ringing in his ears, he finally picked up the chess pieces again.
