The rescued boy is a beggar child of about six or seven years old. He lives with his sick grandfather in a broken temple not far from the village. He was beaten by thugs for dirtying their clothes and was saved by Old Man Su and Su Sanlang. He receives a tael of silver, which is more than a farming family earns in a year. He vows to repay the kindness if he ever has the ability. His eyes flash with cold hostility when asked about his parents, suggesting a hidden past.
