Guess where I am?
Dumbo,
you lost again.
Hurry up.
You promised, don't back out.
Where are the seeds?
Here.
- Let's go. - Don't push me.
We can't be late for the blessing.
Let me give you an introduction.
This pair of gingko trees is over 1000 years old.
Male and female gingko trees...
...must grow together to bear fruit.
We call them a “tree couple”.
Legend has it that...
...if two lovers sow a seed under the tree earnestly...
...and it blossoms,
then they are blessed by the tree.
They will stay together forever.
What kind of flower would you like?
Many people prefer gypsophilia...
...for their stronger ability to survive.
- Let's take that then. - OK.
They also bloom more easily.
Wait for me.
This year's Blessing Ceremony...
...begins!
Wait!
We agree even if the seed doesn't bloom,
you can't use it as an excuse...
...not marrying me before winter.
Do you doubt me?
No, never.
If it really blooms,
that means we have been blessed.
Don't you want that too?
I want that.
But you say this orchid is a rare species.
It doesn't bloom easily.
It's precisely this...
...that makes it meaningful, right?
Let's sow the seed.
- OK. - Let's do it.
He says,
only here can you find the most valuable plants, insects and human beings.
He says, the people here spend their lives...
...researching how to save ill people...
...how to save ill people... - And other species on the planet...
...that have equal rights to survive.
He also says, he'd give anything...
...to finish his almost impossible research,
hoping a miracle will bring you back.
You are the Spring of the Earth.
I knew you'd be here.
It's amazing. Look!
This flower only blooms for one day,
and we happen to witness it.
How marvelous!
Thank you, Eros.
15 degrees. Impossible! That's too low.
Amazing!
I can get married.
It blooms for one day before it Withers;
I must take it back to the lab.
Wake up, happy Piggy.
What's wrong with you?
Guo
Guo, what's wrong with you?
Guo
For now, we can only infer that...
...the patient has acute allergic reaction...
...to one or more kinds of pollen.
His nervous system is in a comatose state.
We’ve already contacted the WHO.
We hope international medical organizations...
...can give us help and guidance.
We can only wait, there's nothing we can do now.
Mr. Yan is an herbal pharmacology expert.
Do you know what his most recent study is?
Maybe the root cause of his coma is there.
He's very weak, his condition is very unstable.
It's critical we identify the root cause.
He touches all kinds of plants every day.
- How can I find out? Aren't you guys doctors? - Please calm down.
- Mr. Yan shouldn't have allergic reaction... - Please.
...To ordinary plants.
Did he Contact plants you never saw before?
It just bloomed.
I know, it must be it.
Go back and bring it here before it Withers.
It's over.
Eros simply doesn't exist.
Eros doesn't exist! it's a lie!
Are you... Eros?
You lied to us.
When did I lie to you?
Isn't it said that...
...if the seed we earnestly sow blooms,
then we will be together forever?
It's been so for hundreds of years.
Look, the seed has bloomed;
but my boyfriend is lying in the hospital.
Why did you have to lie to us?
I didn't let the flower bloom;
I didn't promise to bless you.
Don't make excuses.
Aren't you Eros? Isn't it your responsibility?
How do you rule this land?
I really didn't let it bloom.
It's not blooming time yet.
It's against nature.
Eros,
I beg you.
Please save my boyfriend.
As long as he will live,
I can exchange my life for his.
You can sacrifice your life to save him?
I can. Would you help me?
Is it worth it?
He might forget you very soon.
No, he won't.
I don't care, as long as he can live.
His life is more worthy than mine.
Every life is equally valuable;
and I have no right to take lives.
I have a way to save your boyfriend...
...provided you won't see him for 3 years.
By then you will find out...
...if his love for you won't change...
...and if your sacrifice is worth it.
I agree, but...
I don't have any other relatives.
Where can I hide during these 3 years?
No need to hide.
You can even follow him around,
but he won't know you're around him.
I will do that.
I will. I beg you, Eros. Please save him.
Please, please.
White Jade,
wake her boyfriend up.
Go!
Come back here in 3 years.
Dr. Pang, the patient just came to.
I found Bao's brooch by the river,
and this flashlight too.
I couldn't find her at your place,
so I notified the police.
Welcome to Moon Island.
Thank you.
OK. Thanks, everyone.
Have a rest, call me if you need anything.
- This is for you. - Don't worry too much.
Thanks. I'll be fine after a few days' rest.
- Bye. - Bye.
Is everybody ready?
What's that?
- Bees! - Run!
Be careful, it's slippery.
Guo
We're here to see you, Guo.
Guo? Guo?
He should be home.
What's that?
Smells good! Is it soup? Your mom made it?
I made it.
Mom's stung by a bee and couldn't cook.
I cooked too much.
Mom said it's a waste, so... there you go.
You're wearing too little.
Come in. I'll get you a jacket.
Too thin, not good enough for winter.
Fetch a few more then.
See you.
Isn't it too much to shit on her?
It's for sticking the leaf, it's warm.
What do you mean?
It's warm to sleep inside, no Wind or rain.
Have you seen her before?
Just a white butterfly.
It stinks.
Excuse me.
Let me through.
Slow down a bit.
- Let's get away. - Don't come near.
- Horrible! So scary! - Let's get out of here.
Sir, what are they afraid of?
Of you! I'm afraid, too.
Please, can you stay away from me?
You're in big trouble.
What's the matter?
How long have you known that man?
Humans are full of contagious diseases.
I don't know him.
I saw you with him over there.
- If this gets out, you'll be in trouble. - I...
Where're you going, sir?
Across the river.
You were with him. Can you stay off me?
Is that okay now? Well, safe trip.
Your news will be across the river a month later.
I really don't know that man.
Why let him get so near you then?
I had to stand there, he almost trampled me.
Is the white butterfly still there?
She's there for so long, maybe she's dead.
It stinks! Butterflies are fragile.
You mean I've stunk her to death?
Look, she's quite okay.
And quite strong.
Don't be scared, it's us.
Let's go, don't be nosy.
OK.
Wait!
Do you know me? Why am I here?
- Of course, we... - Hey, mind your own business!
OK, we've never seen you.
We don't know how you got here.
So... what's this place?
Here's here, but don't go there.
Have I been over there?
Yes.
You just said you'd never met her.
Don't mind where she's going, keep quiet!
I can't be indifferent to her danger.
Your nosiness always brings trouble...
...involving me in the end.
OK, I know nothing. Just don't go there.
Sorry.
Why didn't you follow the butterfly path?
You almost broke my wings.
You can't bump around like that!
Are you okay?
Are you hurt?
How are you feeling?
What does she mean by butterfly path?
Our flying path. Everyone has a different path to follow.
Otherwise, you'll bump into others easily.
She might have hurt here.
Does your head hurt? Where are you from?
Could be there? I can't remember.
Can you teach me how to fly?
Different kinds of butterflies have different paths.
Fei, teach her our butterfly path,
so she won't cause trouble again.
But we can't fly as quickly as your kind.
But we can fly longer.
Our flying style is not as powerful.
But it's more graceful.
I just want to fly, please teach me.
Fei
All right, let's fly over there.
Come, follow us.
Wait... wait for me...
What's so special about today?
Didn't you get your report card today?
“The Black & White Mouse” from the bookstore at the pier.
Isn't that just a comic book?
Critics say it's profound, also a bestseller.
OK, I'll return it to you if I flunk.
Keep it. Retake the exam if you flunk.
I don't want to go to that university.
It's too far away, and I hate dorms.
My dad also says,
this major doesn't need a degree.
I can learn from you.
Let me pay you tuition and you can teach me.
I'll follow you after graduation, anyway.
Your words don't count? You promised me.
What did I promise?
Give me your report card.
It's not out yet.
Hand it over.
OK, I passed.
Keep the book then.
This one is broken, too.
I simply don't wanna go to college.
I wanna do research with you.
I told you I couldn't teach you.
At any rate,
I got my own things to resolve.
You really remember having been here?
Positive. Thanks, I'm home.
Home?
Shuang
We'll say goodbye then.
Thanks, goodbye.
Your research has no progress,
because you have not been working.
You've been only watering them for months.
You're a specialist, not a gardener.
So you can grow flowers without water?
To prolong the blooming of phalaenopsis...
...is very complicated, understand?
OK.
I'm no expert, I don't understand.
But I know you're making excuses.
Like spring is too humid and winter too cold.
This is a greenhouse, these shouldn’t matter.
Insurmountable problems always emerge in research.
That's it.
I'm volunteering today. Come with me.
I don't feel like it.
Stop watering.
- Let's go. - Don't force me.
Let's go.
- Come on. - Go where?
The waterfall canyon.
You haven't been there in a while.
Let's go.
What's the date today?
March 12. Why?
I don't want to go. You go.
- Why not? - Don't insist.
Let's go.
Seriously, don't push me.
I've seen this butterfly before.
Don't do that. What's wrong?
What's the matter?
I'm allergic to butterflies.
I never heard you say that.
It's quite serious.
So it's true.
You have rashes on your face.
Drink water infused with hibiscus leaves, it can cure the allergy.
- Don't worry, it's no big deal. - Just go home.
Honestly, I really don't want to go.
Let me deal with it.
OK, I'll go then.
All right.
Don't be scared.
Come here.
You've strayed, I'll take you home.
Don't you know how annoying you are?
He plays with you outside all day long.
You're interfering with his work.
If you understand that, get lost now.
Don't come back until it is dark.
Sorry, I woke you up.
Not at all, so you've come.
How's your research proposal?
Not bad.
Thanks.
- What is it? - Be careful.
I made it for my butterfly.
Where’s the butterfly?
She flew out as I came in.
She belongs to nature, she'll be safe outside.
Let's have breakfast.
Who says it's safe outside?
That's from outside, you think it's safe?
- What is it? - The soil on Moon Island is seriously acidic.
What do you mean?
When the PH of the soil is out of balance,
the first victims are the plants.
Creatures that live on these plants, like insects, will suffer more.
How's that possible?
There're lots of reasons.
Acid rain is one.
Acid rain?
- Go away. - Go away.
Quiet, everybody!
Let's go.
Keep cool.
You better go before you harm us.
How will I harm you?
You hang out with humans. You'll harm us!
That's unfair. He chased me. I couldn't flee.
I was hiding there, and he just give me a glance.
I didn't know him at all.
Why did he get so close for one glance?
He's close enough to spread his germs to you.
- Go away. - Go away.
You're too much!
So what if he hangs out with humans?
Humans walk here too and breathe the air here.
Are you not going to breathe any more?
It's you?
What about me?
It's her.
There.
There, there!
She's the butterfly that hangs with humans.
It's me... so what?
Scram!
Let's split up, I'll divert them.
- How does it work? - Hurry up!
Here, here...
A knight saving a lady! How cool!
You think the bees are after you? Smart aleck!
Stay there.
Have you seen a white butterfly?
No.
Fei, did you see a white butterfly?
No.
Let's check over there.
- Yes. - Yes.
It's dangerous here. Scram!
Come out.
Follow me.
Insects do not hang around humans.
Why not?
Humans are dirty, filled with germs.
If we get infected,
our whole species might be exterminated.
Insects that hang around humans must be chased off.
Even bees are asked to do the job.
Just now,
the bees were sent to kill you.
You're lucky; don't come in daytime any more.
Fei
He's being too blunt.
We can't see each other any more, take care.
Thanks.Bye.
Take care.
Scared?
Come.
Tell me why you came back so late?
Did you lose your way?
You must tell me even if you strayed.
I've been waiting all night, for you.
See that? I made this home for you.
Go.
Why are you so silly?
I could have smashed you.
Is that Mr. Yan?
How are you?
I'm Yang Lin, this is my card.
I'm a reporter of a publication of the United Nations International...
...Medicinal Plants Research Organization.
Long name, huh?
The magazine is called “Drugs & Physics...
Nice to meet you.
Your research is diverse. How are you?
How did you come in?
- I... - Is it this letter, Ms. Yang?
Yes, it is.
It arrived days ago.
Ms. Yang's publication wants to interview you;
she asked me the way, so I brought her.
I'm here to present you with an invitation letter.
Here, your invitation letter.
United Nation's Annual Symposium...
...would like to invite you to make a speech.
Our publication was glad to hear that,
and wanted me to interview you.
It will be published in the gazette.
Would you be open to it?
This is a great opportunity.
Ms. Yang, please take a seat.
OK.
Please sit.
First, let me congratulate you...
...for being elected Man of the Year...
...by the Organization. How do you feel?
Nothing much.
Your research on phalaenopsis is reputed...
...to “bring a new hope to the world”.
What's your hope for the research?
My hope is very personal.
It's not materialized yet, I need more time.
It's too soon to answer this question.
Many pharmacologists have high hopes for your research.
Can you give us some feedback?
I think many pharmacologists are theorists.
They...
Are you alright?
Why did you choose to research phalaenopsis?
Because it has notable effects against...
...immunodeficiency caused by spiral hay fever.
This disease is still incurable.
If your research is successful,
many patients can be saved, right?
The key is its 5-year cycle. Next year is the peak of the cycle.
May I know the progress of your research?
It's in hiatus at the moment.
Didn't you say you could restart?
But...
There's an accident during your research last year...
...and you were almost killed.
Is that the reason for the hiatus?
The doctors didn't come up with a diagnosis.
The accident wasn't related to the research.
All research has hiccups.
- When it's time, he will start again. - I think the reason is personal.
OK.
Let's call it a day, GK?
Thanks for the interview.
- Sure. - Okay.
Will you be attending our symposium?
I'll sleep on it and get back to you.
All right
That's it, then.
- Fine. - Fine.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Thanks again for the interview.
Best of luck with your research.
- Thanks. - Bye.
- Let me see you out. - OK... Bye.
- Bye, safe way back. - Thanks.
I think I know the way, no need to escort me.
Thanks for your help today.
Bye.
Guo's a nice man, he's just been blunt today.
He's a very...
...unselfish man.
Don't write anything negative.
I'm sorry.
In fact, I admire him, too.
Don't worry, I'll be objective.
Eros,
I know I've failed her, but I'm always Waiting for her.
Do you believe in prayers?
I do.
Have you ever made a wish?
I have.
Did it come true?
Partially.
Then it has come true.
As long as you're sincere, it'll come true.
Did you hear that?
If I'm waiting for someone,
I'll wish that when he sees me again...
...I'll be someone worth his while.
Perhaps that can be one of the reasons why you should join the symposium.
If I'm awaiting someone,
I'll wish that when he sees me again...
...I'll be someone worth his while.
Dear Bao,
I want you to know how much I miss you;
how much I hope you'll come back to me.
In the past, I chose work over you.
Now,
I realize I can't live without you.
If only I could get you back,
I'd give anything...
...to finish an almost impossible research,
hoping a miracle would bring you back.
I'll be back in spring. Wait for me. Yours, Guo.
It's warm and nice, no Wonder the butterfly hangs here.
Damn.
How can we hibernate? It's too hot to sleep.
How come you're here?
We want to hibernate here.
The master is very nice, he will treat you well.
He's gone to spend his winter elsewhere.
How can that be? He didn't tell me.
Why not? Humans are fickle.
Isn't that so-and-so's so-and-so?
That's the master's friend.
That so-and-so is not here.
Don't mind ether's so-and-so's.
- This so-and-so is very destructive. - You're right.
So-and-so's so-and-so is more destructive.
Don%go.
Don't panic.
Only a Chinchilla; we can hibernate together.
- No, he’ll eat everything in the greenhouse. - Just flowers and plants, what can he eat?
Let him be.
What else can we do but let him be?
I have an idea. Follow me.
Underneath this door is recyclable trash.
We can go outside through here.
How can we open it?
If we have enough weight on it, it will open.
That Chinchilla is heavy enough.
But we are all stowaways.
We have no right to kick others out.
You're in charge now, ask him to leave.
Chinchilla, follow me. Chinchilla!
He doesn't even listen to the hostess.
We should show some respect to the hostess.
You...
Chinchilla, look at me.
- I'm here. - Chinchilla, follow me.
- Come here. - Here.
Hey, listen.
Forget it, animals don't talk to insects.
The Chinchilla likes your friend.
He's not my friend.
Help!
It's alright.
Oh no, he can't see us.
Isn't it good that he can't see me?
So, let's make him see you.
Left.
Right.
- Up. - Here.
Over here.
Come here.
- Come here! Over here! - Come up.
Come up.
Come down and eat.
You worked hard enough in the last few days.
Not much more to harvest, take a break.
Luckily the snow hasn't crushed the crop.
I wonder why it snows so early this year.
There's nothing strange about it.
Guo said our soil's getting worse;
carbon dioxide in the air is getting more concentrated.
Perhaps that's why it snowed early this year.
Thank you.
Faced with so many people at once,
I'm a bit uneasy, not knowing what to say.
The weather reminds me of my island.
It takes 2 people...
...to row a boat for 2 weeks to come to your city.
I've been having insomnia since I came here.
If I can't sleep in winter, I'll have no energy in spring.
It's so hot, we shouldn't have come here.
Our guest today is the famous botanist,
Yan Guo, author of “Plant Forms Illustrated” .
It's Q&A time, feel free to ask questions.
Hello, everyone.
The gentleman in the last row.
I'm a reporter from Daily News.
What message does Mr. Yan want to convey to these kids today?
Thank you. That's it.
It's a great success today.
Please.
It's you?
Yes.
I'm recently writing an article...
...on nature conservation.
Can Prof. Yan provide me with some info?
Let me see.
Guo, the flowers are about to bloom.
When will you be back?
Mr. Coffee.
Good afternoon.
Coffee with cream and sugar.
Your coffee. Enjoy.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
Coffee machine...
Coffee machine!
Coffee machine, stop!
Good afternoon.
One coffee with cream and sugar.
Add water...
Add milk...
No water. Going to add water. Goodbye.
- Add water... - Sorry I'm late.
You're late.
I'm sorry.
This info is for you, be careful.
Yes, thank you.
When will it be published?
The next issue.
I hope your viewpoint will encourage people...
...to pay attention to environmental pollution.
Definitely.
If you have time, let's grab a coffee.
You've talked about this flower the whole winter.
Can you stop?
I still don't understand.
Let me explain again.
No need.
Why did he leave after sowing the seed?
That means he'll be back soon.
What does it have to do with you?
We can leave when he comes back.
Welcome to Moon Island.
I wish you a great holiday.
The reception is right ahead.
Welcome to Moon Island. Wish you a great holiday.
Where're you going?
To register at the university.
It's only 7 years, right?
Your school results are good, don't worry.
What's the matter?
I'll register first; but I still haven't decided on my major.
In fact, whether I really like pharmacology,
I still don't know.
Don't know?
Isn't your thesis ready?
What about the orchids you grow?
You take care of them for me.
I can't wait for them to bloom.
Don't be impatient.
You need patience for flowers to bloom.
I made my decision thanks to you.
Why me?
Because of “The Black & White Mouse” you gave me.
Once upon a time,
a black and a white mouse were good friends.
They liked to eat cheese in the same cave...
...every day.
One day, the white mouse came to the cheese cave...
...and noticed all the cheese was gone.
She thought he must wait for the black mouse,
so that they could look for a new cave.
She waited day after day for 99 days.
She was starving; the black mouse never came.
Suddenly, it dawned on her...
...the black mouse must have come before her...
...and noticed the cave was empty,
but he had left without leaving a word.
Soon, the white mouse left, too.
She's no longer naive.
It's just her wishful thinking;
nobody considered her a friend.
But the white mouse wouldn't stop eating cheese...
...because the black mouse had wronged her.
That could be true;
but...
...the white mouse must first find out...
...whether she liked cheese at all.
Right?
Gotta go.
Keep up with it.
Be good.
Don't repeat.
Guo, it's too late.
This flower has withered,
but look, there are lots of new buds.
They will bloom anytime.
What's he doing?
He's bored.
Is it fun?
It's silly.
Get out.
I'm leaving.
Please come back any time.
No, thanks.
No matter how bad it is outside, I want freedom.
Let's not see each other again.
I guess that's it.
OK, bye then.
Can you take me to the greenhouse?
What?
Please...
Can you understand?
I'm getting mad.
I don't wanna wait any more.
Don't fret. Where can you go?
He's back.
- You're back. - Get up.
Are you alright? Move a bit.
- Hurry! Go and have a look. - What happened here?
I've tried my best to block it.
- It's all flooded. - Oh my god.
What should we do?
Not too bad.
Is it all right?
Thanks! It would've been worse if it were not for you.
Don't thank me, thank that.
Your clothes?
Are you allergic?
No.
Come in, you're drenched. Got other clothes?
Yes.
Give them to me.
- They're all wet. - Wet...
- I'll let you have my girlfriend's clothes. - White Butterfly.
White Butterfly.
Great that you're back.
It would have been better if you'd come sooner.
Please save Shuang.
Her wings are fading in colors.
Can alpinia flowers cure it?
Their honey can cure most diseases.
I have no choice. I have to try.
- Let me see. - Come here.
It's over there.
It's useless, all the flowers have drowned.
I seldom see these flowers any more.
You can find them on Star Island.
So? Even humans dare not going. It's dangerous there.
It doesn't matter if the color fades. It's not deadly.
Life is more important than appearance.
But everyone is scared and Wants to chuck her out.
I don't want to see Shuang being sad.
It's dangerous to go to Star Island alone.
If you can't be back, Shuang'll be very sad.
No, we're going together.
You guys stay in the greenhouse.
It's getting increasingly dangerous outside.
We're different. I'm happy being outside.
I can't sleep here. I'm tired.
OK, right away.
You're so kind.
You're welcome.
Without you, my lab would have been destroyed.
Please.
Thank you.
- You caught a cold. - Excuse me.
This is herbal tea, you'll be fine after drinking it.
Okay.
Do I have to finish it?
It's bitter, right?
That's why I have cookies for you.
They'll take away the bitterness.
I baked these cookies before.
No kidding?
It's hard to buy them in stores.
Delicious? My girlfriend made them.
When did your girlfriend make them?
Two years ago. Tasty, huh?
That's okay, I'll eat them later.
I clean this room quite often.
If you don't mind, you can stay.
And here...
If you look outside from here,
you can see the pier on a sunny day.
The scenery is beautiful.
My girlfriend liked to stand here and look outside.
Sorry, you must be tired. We'll chat tomorrow.
I want to thank you.
I want to thank you...
...for accommodating me in such a cozy...
...and beautiful place.
Let me take the cookies away;
I'll get you others tomorrow.
That's fine.
Well, you better drink this up.
Good night.
Why leave me behind?
Look! Such beautiful scenery,
can't be found in the city.
Yes.
Anyway, that place is uninhabitable.
But why do people like to cram in together?
What about you?
Actually, the city isn't that good any more.
Contagion has become prevalent;
those specialists are clueless.
Each time a new pathogen is found,
be it from animals or plants,
they will be completely destroyed.
Chickens, ducks, get ill and get killed.
Pigs, cows, all slaughtered.
In fact, many great scientists still...
...spend their lives researching...
...how to cure the ill and the dying.
Actually, human beings are really lucky, aren't we?
But other species are pitiful.
They're preserved when needed;
when they're no longer needed,
they're killed in the most gruesome ways.
Human beings can be selfish in self-preservation.
I'm just a bit worried.
We might gradually killed all other species;
we'd be left alone in the world.
How lonesome would we be then?
Right?
I want to stay on this island...
...because of its precious vegetation...
...and excellent air.
Don't shoot me. Shoot the tree.
Let me see.
You don't want to see it.
So...
let's go over there.
Come here. Be careful.
Hurry up.
Smells great.
Try it.
You really know how to bake that cookies.
Sure.
I'm about to eat it, can I be honest?
No problem.
How is it?
Yummy.
I was afraid it's not sweet enough.
- If it's not sweet enough, add more sugar. - It's just right.
No need for sugar.
How do you know it's sugar, among them all?
I needed to open them to find out at first;
but with labels, it's easier now.
You men don't know about housework.
They're the same, how can you tell what's inside?
You don't like it?
No, labels are good.
Sorry, I should have asked you first...
It really doesn't matter.
The labels are useful for me, too.
Good.
Have more.
OK.
Sugar, salt, MSG, pepper, black pepper.
No labels are allowed; you must figure it out yourself.
Come on, have a guess.
Are you sure?
What is it?
What have you swallowed?
You've been had.
Liar.
How's my performance?
Hungry?
I'm coming.
Wait for me.
Mysterious Death of Insects
Looks sumptuous.
Anything I can help?
Yes.
Just sit down quietly...
...and finish them all.
I feel sorry, you're on vacation.
Why sorry? I feel that my vacation...
...is intruding on your peace.
This is kinda compensation.
In that case, I'll start.
Good. The tea has expired, I won't drink it.
And the honey...
...is stolen from the butterfly's bowl.
Guess it!
Didn't you put labels on yesterday?
Yes, but on second thought,
I decided not to put labels on.
I felt as if I'd ruined everything here.
You have your memories.
Besides,
in your eyes,
I could see...
...how beautiful your memories are.
Sorry, let's change the topic.
That was really the happiest time of my life.
I think it's me who...
...ruined everything perfect here.
You know what, I think this result...
...is a retribution for my impiety to Nature.
You don't look superstitious to me.
Remember the big tree where we first met?
It's called Eros Tree here.
Many young lovers come here before wedding...
...to ask for blessing under the tree.
They'll sow a seed under the tree.
If the seed blooms,
that means they're blessed.
They will be very happy ever after.
But there're lots of coincidences...
...that baffle our minds.
But I think one should be more cautious...
...when it comes to marriage.
I didn't believe it then.
I really didn't believe it.
When Bao and I knelt down and prayed,
I wasn't sincerely praying for our future.
I was only thinking...
...that the flower had to bloom.
That would mean my research was successful.
Did the flower bloom?
Yes.
But I think it bloomed because I added a special fertilizer.
So...
So you think Bao's departure...
...is your retribution?
That night.
Bao tried to get the flower to the hospital to save me.
That night,
she was washed away by the flood.
I believe in retribution;
but this retribution is unfair.
It should have been me.
Why should it be Bao?
That's an accident.
I'm all right.
Sorry, I'll take a walk outside.
Team 1, stay here to clear the road.
Team 2, follow me.
Check these resident points.
Gather the residents in the square.
Got it.
What's the matter with her?
Is shew?
Let me check.
She's breathing, should be okay.
Emergency notice:
Do not touch any insects.
Everyone must gather in the square.
Emergency notice:
Do not touch any insects.
Report to Commander.
We're investigating the last house in Zone 3.
Someone is coming out.
We're the Special Epidemic Prevention Unit.
Body temperature 36.2 degrees.
Anyone else? Pets?
Just me.
I'm a reporter. I want to see your captain.
- Kids, come here. - What's the matter?
Where’s he going'?My kid...
Why are you taking the kid?
- What's the matter with you guys? - What's happening?
Calm down!
- Please calm down! - What's the matter? What happened?
Listen up!
If you wait till your illness is confirmed,
it's too late to take action.
Moon Island must be disinfected immediately.
Everyone could be infected.
Please evacuate quietly now!
Without any evidence or data,
- you want us to evacuate? - You don't have any evidence, right?
- Isn't that too reckless? - You've got any data or something?
Captain, a reporter wants to see you.
I don't have time.
We will publish it once the report is out.
- Be cooperative. We're running out of time. - What if your speculation is wrong?
You wanna disinfect our whole island?
Calm down, everyone.
The photos in today's paper were sent by me.
I'm Yang Lin, a reporter.
Ms. Yang,
Can the death of insects proves that...
...our island has a plague?
I'm just reporting the truth,
so the islanders know what's going on.
It's my responsibility.
I think the captain was right.
If we evacuate after the plague is confirmed,
it will be too late.
Think about it.
It's not only for ourselves, but for everybody.
I hope we can all cooperate.
Please line up and get on the boat.
Thank you.
- Please line up. - Thank you.
- Please line up and get on the boat. - Thanks for your cooperation.
Your comprehensive disinfection...
...will destroy the precious plants here.
It will affect his research.
We need a comprehensive disinfection just in case...
Just in case?
What if your speculation is wrong?
The beautiful environment here will be destroyed, for good.
Mr. Yan suggests...
...following standard procedures for all action.
First, we collect samples of flora;
then we run them through lab tests.
If we can prove that there's an epidemic,
it's not too late to disinfect then.
I will never leave here.
This is my home, my research area.
Good.
Our magazine attaches great importance to this research.
I'll also stay behind to report everything.
Luckily, I washed my head with cold water...
...or they'd know I have a fever.
It's over already, drink this.
Thanks.
Eat something and have more rest.
Every time I rest, I become ill.
Maybe it's good that I can stay.
Time is running out; when will you start?
I'm ready.
Just need to wait for the phalaenopsis to bloom.
Wait for it to bloom?
Why?
It only breeds during the time of blooming.
I need a plant with a long blooming period...
...to breed with the phalaenopsis.
How can I help now?
You're recovering. Just watch the orchids for me.
Notify me when they bloom.
Where are you going?
To Star Island.
There's a special species which I think...
...that can breed with the phalaenopsis.
So...
How beautiful.
That one is blooming;
these two already bloomed;
this one is about to bloom.
So you can start your research.
Perhaps one of the plants I collected...
...is already fit for breeding.
How long will we be stuck here this time?
He thinks I'm dead already.
He can only think so; but he can't prove it.
He needs to come in to prove that.
If he comes in, we'll be saved.
Grasshopper? Grasshopper?
Do I have to talk to you? How frustrating.
It's blooming.
He says,
only here can you find the most valuable plants, insects and human beings.
He says, the people here spend their lives...
...researching how to save ill people...
...and other species on the planet...
...that have equal rights to survive.
He says, he'd give anything...
...to finish his almost impossible research,
hoping a miracle will bring you back.
You...
...are the Spring of the Earth.
Those absurdities he faces in his research...
...obstruct his radical thinking like a plague.
We lost our support.
Is there really an epidemic?
Not for the time being.
But many people...
...questioned on the money spent on the evacuation.
They think Moon Island should be disinfected.
Residents should be sent back for observations.
These people are the plague itself.
They really don't know that in this island,
other creatures also need protection?
Disinfection will ruin the ecology.
The flowers bloomed; I should set off to Star Island...
...for henbane flowers. I gotta go right away.
You can't go.
You can't leave.
You know the flowers only bloom for one day?
If you leave now, the flowers' lives will be wasted.
In that case,
let me go for you.
It takes 3 days to go and return from Star Island,
and I know the flowers will be withered by then.
I really don't know what to do.
Guo
Guo, stay focused.
Calm down.
We can't control everything.
But right now,
you can't give up the opportunity at hand.
Otherwise,
how can you be worthy of the person who sacrificed for you?
Right now,
henbane flowers from Star Island are needed...
...to continue his work.
That's a desperate hope;
but also a hope against hope.
Where can we find henbane flowers?
Come on, grasp firmly!
That's nepenthes.
If you fall in, the lid Will Close,
and you'll never come out again.
It's dangerous, why are you here?
I'm looking for henbane flowers.
I've never seen this flower before.
Fei said there're many rare flowers...
...in the carpet moss ahead.
You can go and have a look;
but it's more dangerous there.
I'll be careful, thanks.
Where’s Fei?
I lost him.
But we agreed to wait here in case we got separated.
We can't leave till we meet again.
That's why I can't take you to the Carpet moss.
I can go on my own, don't worry.
I'm sure Fei will be back very soon.
He'll bring alpine flowers as well.
Bye.
Stay away from sticky stuff, it's dangerous.
Henbane flowers, where are you?
I really need a break.
What's that?
My feet are stuck.
I can't move.
That's the last one.
Since all the previous ones have failed,
why don't we choose a variety...
...that can best change the nature of phalaenopsis?
Let's try again.
Maybe we'll find something new.
Just take it as giving this flower a chance...
...and not wasting its blooming period.
There's no need.
We know the results already.
Why sacrifice it for the lab?
As long as there's a little bit of hope, I don't think We should give up.
I haven't given up.
I just feel I'm in a quandary.
Every researcher has his premise...
...to sustain his research.
But it suddenly dawned on me that,
I can actually...
...base my research on the cause of diseases.
Wouldn't that be easier?
But if I were that flower,
I could sacrifice myself to save more people.
Wouldn't that be better?
But we're not that flower.
If the flower could talk, it would have resisted.
So what's your plan?
My wings are broken.
Guo, how can I fly home?
So you're hiding here.
I found it.
So there you are.
It's too late.
Eros,
it's almost 3 years.
I've always been convinced...
...my boyfriend will stay faithful.
Keeping promises...
...must bring good results.
But Eros,
I don't want to become human again.
Since Guo has lost me,
he had a hard time recovering.
In fact, lots of people around him...
...love and know him better than I do.
I don't want my reappearance...
...to rob him of these opportunities.
Eros, let me sleep here,
hearing lovers pray for their future;
watching motley little flowers...
...grow up.
Come.
Up here.
Sit down.
Have you heard the story of the two mice?
Yes.
It's a bestseller.
The white mouse decided not to leave eventually.
She decided to pursue her own life.
I think her decision is right.
But the black mouse is very good to the white one.
How good? Is there another ending?
You never read the book?
What's the other ending? Carry on.
In fact, the black mouse came to the cave earlier...
...and noticed there's no more cheese.
He thought that,
"White mouse hates moving and gets worried easily,
"let me find a new cave first...
"...and then come back to tell her.
"She will be here, waiting for me."
And so, the black mouse left,
busy looking for a new cave.
The Search led him far far away;
99 days passed and he couldn't find one.
He wondered whether the white mouse was still waiting for him.
Should I go find the white mouse first?
Or continue searching until I found one?
And then?
And then, the black mouse persisted.
On the 100th day, he found a new cheese cave.
He happily sealed the cave...
...and rushed back to find his friend.
But the white mouse had left.
I don't like this ending.
If I were the writer, it'd be:
Although the white mouse had left,
she noticed all the neighboring caves were empty.
Then, she thought,
"The black mouse must be looking for a new cheese cave,
"as he knows I hate moving and easily get worried.
"He knows I'll be waiting for him."
The white mouse returned to their cheese cave...
...and continued waiting for the black mouse.
And then?
The black mouse come back. Happy ending!
But the black mouse left without leaving a word.
The white mouse waited for 99 days.
Would she continue to wait?
Of course.
As long as they trusted each other,
they should meet again one day.
In your story,
you're the black mouse?
In my story, I'm the white mouse.
Every day when I wake up,
I could hear Bao's voice...
...and her footfall.
It's been 3 years.
I know I will keep waiting...
...for her return.
What's the matter?
I suddenly feel a little lost.
Lost?
Ever since this island was proven free of epidemics,
many tourists rush here.
Sure, I'm a tourist too, your home is a tourist spot.
I'm worried if this goes on,
our environment will be destroyed.
You're worrying about the flora.
You want us to be close to nature,
but meanwhile, you're afraid we destroy it.
All right, tell me,
would you expect me to come back?
Of course.
You're always welcome; you're my friend.
Thank you.
Welcome to Moon Island.
I wish you a happy holiday.
Hope you'll come back soon.
Guess where I am?
I'm not doing it.
Just come out.
I've always been here.
Shuang.
You're back.
Sorry I got lost.
- As long as you're okay, it's fine. - I know you'd be here waiting for me.
I found a gorgeous spot, would you like to go there with me?
Sure, I'd love to.
- Let's go. - Yeah.
It's all your fault.
Why not mind your own business? You had us locked here again!
Have you ever thought about the consequence of doing that?
Stop grumbling, okay?
- You don't think you're to blame, do you? - Guys, please. We're friends, remember?
They're your friends and see what they do to you.
What're they doing out there?
I don't know. Stick to their dream, I guess.
What dream?
Research and mix different varieties in order to...
...improve the next generation.
Oh, it could work?
So if I have a baby with grasshopper, what would the baby be like?
A ladybug with a tall figure...
...or a grasshopper with a fat shape?
A long-legged ladybug...
...or a spotted grasshopper? - Shut up! Let me out! Let me out!
