The next morning, the doctor tells Qu'an that he has awakened from his three-day coma. He tells the doctor that his master, the emperor, is planning to kill him. The doctor tells him that the emperor has already sent a messenger to the capital to warn the people that they should not attack because the emperor hates them. He also says that the people should be given blood transfusions so that they don't get poisoned. He asks the doctor if he has any magic potion that will help him get out of his current predicament.
