This chapter's epigraph comes from a famous poem by the English poet William Butler Yeats. It's a poem about a man who's about to die, but he's not about to let go of his last breath. The poem's title is "stop blaming the dead" , which is a reference to the fact that the protagonist's father has been sentenced to death for stealing dragon weapons from the temple. The protagonist and his sister have tried to find out the truth about their father's death, but they've been unable to find any trace of the weapons. So they're going to make sure that the people at the temple don't get caught up in this kind of thing. This is the first time the protagonist has seen his father alive. He's shocked to learn that his father is actually the minister of the temple's internal affairs department, and that he was responsible for the theft of dragon weapons. He tells the protagonist to hurry up and give up all the stolen weapons. Otherwise, he says, he'll make sure the protagonist doesn't walk out alive. This isn't right, the protagonist says. He came to the temple not just to get revenge, but to find something more important. He wants to know how the protagonist found out that the dragon weapons were stolen, and how he was able to track it down. He explains that they used the dragon's gps locator to find the yan-jue, which was originally hidden deep in a swamp in the middle of the miasma
