| Medicine Gift Event "Big-Eyed Awl" | A child of the Tian Clan villagers. Sells dough figurines at the foot of the Tang Clan mountain, but business is dismal. His father smashed his cart and forced him into the noodle trade; the plain noodle soup he sells has nothing but a little salt for flavor. In a fit of temper he said he would slaughter the family ox to make beef noodles, which started a quarrel between father and son and led to the Fourth Senior Brother's request to buy an ox. In truth he grew up playing with the family ox, Rhubarb, and could never bear to kill it. If Zhao Huo out-talks him, he even goes home and cries hugging Rhubarb. "This is a matter of upbringing. If there's something wrong with my character, it's all my father's fault." |
| Western Wulin "Big-Eyed Awl" | Returns to the Outer Fort during the truce, blaming not the Tang Clan but the Wulin Alliance. "I, Big-Eyed Awl, may hate fighting and killing, but I can still tell right from wrong. It's like how I don't like my father always forcing me to do this and that. I live my own life, I do what I want, and as long as it doesn't hurt anyone or defy heaven, who has the right to force me!" |

Doctor Li
| Medicine Gift Event "Doctor Li" | He stopped trusting people after his wife was lured away by a patient, and only agrees to part with the Life-Sustaining Pill once Zhao Huo vouches for it. If you are on good terms with the Tang Clan, he lowers the deposit on his own. Pills refined by the Tang Clan are sold on consignment at his clinic, and if they are to be sold there, they must be cheap. If the Tang Clan wants to sell medicine itself, Doctor Li would rather give free consultations to cut off the Tang Clan's livelihood. A ruthless man. |

She only hopes buyers won't begrudge the small change. Her husband was a butcher, and after they married they grew rich on meat buns, so he wanted to take a woman as a concubine. The woman already had a down-and-out scholar she loved and refused, so the husband flaunted his wealth until her parents agreed to the marriage. Little did he know the scholar was in fact of the imperial kin, with money and power. He burst into the wedding with his men, the husband dropped dead on the spot, and the woman dashed her head against a pillar and killed herself.

Aunt Sun

Ye Yunshang formed a Demon King army of thirty or forty people by her stall, made armor of beast bones for her, and called her the muscular female general Hua Mulan. She rather liked it at first, until the yamen's Imperial Soldiers came asking questions and she nearly got thrown in jail. Fierce by nature, the villagers call her a female husband, but she still cannot withstand Yunshang's pestering charm offensive. She once had a daughter whom she forced to marry, and who died at about Yunshang's age. |
| Xiao Zhu Repairs the Outer Fort "Aunt Sun" | A fishmonger. Worried about her son courting Squire Lu's daughter. Marriage has always been a matter of matching families, and though her own has a little money, it is far from a match for Squire Lu. If her son is to be Squire Lu's son-in-law, he must marry into the family, so what becomes of the Chen family? So she hopes to match her son with Yu Zhu, and uses hiring Xiao Zhu for repairs as an excuse to keep her there and give the two a chance to meet. |

| Rushing to Jiangling | The waiter you meet when the party stops at an inn in a neighboring town on the way to Jiangling, since the party is afraid of battle. Jiangling is under siege and the residents flee one after another. The reason he will not leave is that the innkeeper owes him half a year's wages, so he means to take the inn in payment.

| Qingcheng Study | The waiter at a small tea shop on the road back from Qingcheng to the Tang Clan, utterly sick of the world. "Don't go getting your hopes up.

If you can pay ten taels of silver, I'll sell you the whole shop." |

Plotting rebellion, are you?" And then he goes off to be reborn. |
Vice Magistrate
| Wulin Assembly | The Vice Magistrate of Yuezhou. He was not invited to the Wulin Assembly at all and at most should have assisted, yet when the Mud Cult appears he suddenly bursts out and shouts for them to stop again and again. A sixth-rank official, a grade below both Song Bei and Shangguan Sun, and this is not even his duty, so it smacks of overstepping his authority. But he was appointed from the capital to Yuezhou, looks down on Jianghu ruffians, and uses the weight of his office to push his way to the front and browbeat Shangguan Sun. He falls victim to the incense poison along with the Wulin folk and begs Lady Wen for mercy. |
County Magistrate
| Western Wulin | The County Magistrate of Meizhou. With the Tang Clan holding sway in Shu and treating the people well, petty criminals dare not run wild, and they give out gruel and set aside fields.

| Meng Gong Gives a Horse | To let Zhao Huo hurry back to the Tang Clan, Meng Gong gives Zhao Huo his own personal mount.

If Meng Gong's horse were led to the horse market, it would easily fetch over a hundred strings. Yet the moment it reaches the Tang Clan, Second Senior Brother confiscates it. |
