Re. being forgiving of Chu Shuzhi's failure to save Guo Changcheng, I think Zhao Yunlan recognized that CSZ was already punishing himself, and adding more guilt at that point wouldn't do any good.
Lin Jing's dream had useful backstory for the lab plot, and a lot of good characterization for both him and Professor Ouyang given how short a scene it was.
I really liked the little scene of Ye Zun eating pedestrians at the very end of the episode! This suggests that (1) he had to eat a very large number of people to get out of the pillar, and (2) people walk by the pillar on a regular basis. However, Sha Ya and her friends thought they were lost when they found it - an intriguing contradiction. I'm kinda torn between 'Dixing's weirdest park monument' and 'former site of a temple to the voice in the pillar' (and have the wips to show for it).
