Be With You Episode 1 Recap
> Be With You Recap
Meng Sanxi (played by Xie Xingyang) went to see Doctor Hu for a diagnosis. After examining his pulse, Doctor Hu had both good and bad news to deliver, but they were essentially about the same thing: Meng Sanxi had lost all his martial arts abilities. To understand the reason behind this, Doctor Hu asked Meng Sanxi to recount his story.
Meng Sanxi began by talking about his background, revealing that he was an orphan and had been adopted by his master's sect since childhood. Upon hearing this, Doctor Hu reminded Meng Sanxi that he charged by time. Meng Sanxi continued, explaining that he had grown up in the sect and one day had accused his master of being disrespectful for constantly visiting a widow in the village and even staying overnight with her. When his master couldn't deny it and claimed it was love, Meng Sanxi mentioned that his master had also peeped at his senior sister while she was bathing. His master, furious and embarrassed, gave Meng Sanxi an ultimatum: either apologize and face three years of wall-facing punishment or leave the sect immediately.
Meng Sanxi initially refused to apologize, but when his master sternly kicked him out, he quickly apologized, hoping to reduce the punishment to six months of wall-facing. However, it was too late, and his master didn't spare him. Meng Sanxi's fellow disciples had expressed a desire to leave as well but had been unable to do so. They admired Meng Sanxi for being the first to leave the sect. Yet, when the moment of his departure came, they showed no signs of nostalgia and instead seemed to mock him as if he were a fool.
Meng Sanxi went to a restaurant but didn't have money to pay the bill. He thought his fellow disciples would give him some money since they saw him leaving, but it turned out they were all very poor, and his bundle didn't contain a single silver coin. Fortunately, Bei Xiaohai happened to be dining at the same restaurant. Seeing Meng Sanxi's predicament, he offered to pay the bill. However, even after pooling their money together, they were still two wen short. They awkwardly laughed to cover their embarrassment, but the restaurant owner refused to let them off the hook and made them wash dishes. This incident marked the beginning of Meng Sanxi and Bei Xiaohai's friendship.
Bei Xiaohai had been wronged by someone, and to seek revenge, Meng Sanxi challenged over a dozen prestigious martial arts sects in succession. This led to various sects becoming displeased with him. After defeating one of the senior martial artists from an older sect, he became famous. Subsequently, he started working for the local authorities, gathering information about wanted criminals in the black market and capturing them. He received a reward of ten thousand taels of silver. Meng Sanxi became renowned in both the lawful and unlawful worlds. However, on this day, he discovered that he had lost all his martial arts skills and encountered someone seeking revenge for his actions. The opponent believed that Meng Sanxi wouldn't kill him, so he had come to avenge his big brother. Meng Sanxi, however, intimidated the opponent by declaring that he was initiating a new killing rule starting from that day and also offered compensation, thus settling the matter.
While riding in a carriage, Meng Sanxi was traveling aimlessly through the streets when a martial artist intercepted him. The martial artist wanted to regain his master's honor, which Meng Sanxi had tarnished in the past. Meng Sanxi was forced to fight the martial artist, realizing that he had no internal strength left and was no match. He pretended to feel remorse for his past actions and even shed tears. This fooled the martial artist, who let him go, believing Meng Sanxi regretted his actions. Meng Sanxi barely escaped another encounter unscathed.
Just when Meng Sanxi thought he had narrowly escaped danger, he encountered a thief attempting to steal his silver notes. To ensure his safety, Meng Sanxi decided to let the thief take a hundred taels of silver notes. It turned out that Meng Sanxi could only evade five moves with all his strength, and he needed a full five hours of rest to recover. This realization made him cautious not to provoke the thief, who had no knowledge of Meng Sanxi and might kill him to cover their tracks.
Doctor Hu concluded that Meng Sanxi's condition was due to blocked meridians and recommended seeking a remedy from a renowned martial arts family in Muyun City. However, the required medicines were challenging to obtain, and only the Liu family in Muyun City had a medicine that could cure Meng Sanxi. Meng Sanxi decided to go to Muyun City immediately.
As Meng Sanxi was leaving, he heard pursuers approaching. Doctor Hu kindly advised him to leave through the back door and promised to provide some of his consultation fee to help Meng Sanxi continue fleeing.
