Melody of Golden Age Episode 31

A lot of tension

This episode felt heavy and tense. This is likely the beginning of the storm I was expecting after those joyous moments in previous episodes.

Once the old man from the Wuman Tribe started telling Dai Si’s story, I knew right away that the man from Great Cang would be Lai Luozhi (The Black Fiend). The revelations in this episode showed me there is no room for the benefit of the doubt with him anymore.
I hope Yan Xing interrogating Sun Tan won’t cause trouble for Shen Du, but we know how these things usually turn out! Either way, I can only hope Chui Chui can somehow stop Lai; she seems to be the only one he cares about for some reason, and she might be the only one he would actually listen to.

I really want to learn the backstory of Lai Luozhi. What made him turn out this way? It’s still a riddle what his link is to Chui Chui’s mother (I believe she was the one he visited in the graveyard), making me wonder if Chui Chui is actually his sister. Or maybe he visited someone else there and wants to avenge—or even resurrect—them?

We still haven't gotten any closer to the truth about Shen Du’s father’s case. I suspect these cases are linked in one way or another, and solving one could lead to the other. We shall see!

The tension is increasing. I don't understand why so many people think this show is too long or boring—to each their own, I guess! 😉
