This pigeon was not one of those raised by Mother Ya, but rather one kept by the mole in town. She thought, whether it is one or a flock, raising them in the ranch space was always right.
"Beidou, make good use of these medicines. Whether or not we can get something out of them, it all depends on these."
"Yes, Mistress."
Beidou responded and left with the medicines.

Not long after, Mother Ya, Ya Jinghong, and Ban Yilu were brought into a bamboo house in the woods.
The three of them were clueless about what had happened until they were awakened by cold water, their eyes filled with confusion.
"You... You all..."
Ya Jinghong was the first to regain his composure, frightened by the unfamiliar surroundings and seeing Beidou and the others before them to the extent that he was lost for words.
"Beidou, Nangong Piao'er, how could it be you? What are you trying to do?" Ban Yilu was clearly frightened.
