SHUIHU ZHUAN: BAIHU JIETANG {OUTLAWS IN THE MARSH:
WHITE TIGER INTEGRITY HALL} {PART 5} {MANDARIN
CHINESE} (TV)

Summary

The first of two programs on this tape.  Part five of forty-three in this television adaptation of the classic Chinese novel, "Outlaws in the Marsh," written by Shi Naian in the late-1300s.  This adaptation closely follows the novel, which tells the story of how a group known as the 108 Outlaws from Shuihu come together and rebel against the Song Dynasty (AD 960-1279). Part five continues to focus on Lin Chong and Lu Da, who are to become two of the 108 Outlaws later in the series.

Part five picks up from part four where Gao Yanei is just about to rape Ling Chong''s wife. Fortunately Lin Chong arrives in the nick of time to stop the rape and beats Gao Yanei away. Afterwards, Lin Chong relates the incident to Lu Da, who insists on some form of revenge, but Lin Chong is afraid of becoming an enemy of Gao Yanei’s father, Gao Qiu, who is also Lin Chong's supervisor. Meanwhile Gao Yanei pretends to be sick and begs his father to get Lin Chong's wife for him as the only cure for his sickness. Gao’s close bodyguards and advisers also warn Gao Qiu that Lin Chong might be thinking of revenge anyway, even if the Gaos don't do anything else to the Lins. Eventually, Gao Qiu agrees to a plan to get rid of Lin Chong for good. A few days later, Lin Chong buys a beautiful saber in the streets from a man who claims the weapon is a family heirloom. A few more days later, Gao Qiu, who has heard of this incident, asks Lin Chong to bring the saber to him for a good look. Lin Chong obediently does what he's asked, but when he arrives at the appointed place, he realizes he is in the middle of Baihu Integrity Hall, where Gao Qiu usually talks about national security issues and weapons are not allowed. Before Lin Chong escapes, Gao Qiu suddenly shows up and accuses Lin Chong of trying to assassinate him. Gao Qiu then calls guards to arrest Lin Chong, who doesn't resist in the hopes of avoiding further trouble. When Lu Da hears of Lin Chong's arrest, he wants to rescue him right away, but he is stopped by his street punk friends and Lin Chong's father-in-law. A few days later, Lin Chong is sent for trial in front of the Kaifeng Prefecture Judge, who is in charge of all crimes in Dongjing (Eastern Capitol). The judge knows of Lin Chong's innocence, but doesn’t want to anger Gao Qiu either, so he sentences Lin Chong to a prison work camp in Cangzhou. Yet, Gao Yanei is still not satisfied with Lin Chong's predicament and schemes with his close bodyguards to murder Lin Chong on his way to Cangzhou. Right before Lin Chong leaves, he divorces his wife, against her or her father's consent. Part five ends with Lin Chong begging for some water to drink from the two wardens who are transporting him to Cangzhou.
