Following a fierce battle with the Hulin as part of his plan to unite all the Mongol tribes, Genghis Khan (aka Chinggis Khaan/Temujin) sees his troops struck by an outbreak of plague. He tells Lord of Myangat (D. Sosorbaram) to order one especially brave aravt (a unit of 10 soldiers), commanded by Tsahir (Batdorjin Baasanjav), to find the Master Physician (Jambal) who lives in the mountains of the Hulin with his granddaughter Unumunkhlei (Dorjgotov Gantsetseg). En route, one of the aravt, Heekher (Buyankhishig), finds an abandoned baby boy whom they decide to take along with them; the cook Bukhtenger (N. Onon) is designated to look after it. The area is still full of Hulin rebels, including a group led by Harkhor (Gombo Zolboot), son of defeated Hulin chief Hukhtumur (Ayurdadi), and his subordinate Bukha (S. Arlunbyamba). The baby is, in fact, Harkhor's son, and he is searching for it after finding his father-in-law and wife massacred and the baby missing - all of which he blames on Genghis Khan's soldiers. The aravt finds it is being followed by Harkhor and his men but manages to evade them in the mountain forests. Harkhor reaches the Master Physician and Unumunkhlei, with whom the defeated Hukhtumur is being treated for exhaustion. He urges his father to help find his baby son, but Hukhtumur says it is more important for him to journey west to Xisha to arrange an alliance and defeat Genghis Khan. Hiding nearby in the forest, the aravt is unable to contact the Master Physician; but Tsahir's son, Shijirsanaa (B. Amarsakhan), manages to contact Unumunkhlei, whom he'd bumped into earlier, and finds out the best time would be when the Master Physician goes to pray alone to the mountain spirits next morning before setting out. Tsahir manages to clandestinely speak to the Master Physician then, but suddenly events take an unexpected turn.
