Episode 33
Where's everybody? Where did they all go?
What do you want?
Take off the skirt. -Take off the skirt?
You want to rob a peasant man? Even though I am good looking... -Hurry!
Okay, okay, okay!
Take the money out.
You robbed me sexually and now you also rob my money!
Okay.
Oh, this kid's got quite a lot of money.
Hey! -Sit down.
That's right. Didn't we say you are to stay in Jiang Du?
I...I don't want to stay in Jiang Du.
Xiao Lan, didn't we say you can't come? -Who told you to come out to play without me?
We are not going out to play. -I don't care if you are going out to play or not. No matter what, you must bring me.
I am a lucky star! -You are more like a broom star. (broom star is the shooting star: means unlucky)
This time no one is going to help you.
I don't care. Since I am already here. Then you guys must bring me.
Alright, alright. Hurry up and gather your stuff. We have to get on our way.
That's better.
Is it done roasting? -It will be ready in a moment.
If nothing happens, we should get to Qin Shi Royal tomb in half a month.
Luckily that dead Ah Xiang did not follow us. Otherwise we won't have enough meat to share.
Ah Xiang only eats pork. -That dead flying bird is that picky?
Xiao Lan, looks like your cooking skill is not bad.
If you were a girl, then you are ready to get married.
That's right. Never thought Monkey Child is so virtuous.
Hey! What do you mean ready to get married? What do you mean virtuous?
I am a man!
As the saying goes, ''A gentleman will cook when he is far away.''
But to be truthful. If it weren't for Xiang Ling, I wouldn't have learnt this type of stuff.
When you first left Qin Chuan, you didn't know anything.
Now you know how to do everything. -That's right.
That's why man is hard. Hard, hard, hard. (Man and hard sound the same ''Nan''. Play on words)
You see, when you read it out loud like that. You are fated to live a hard life.
If not a man, then it's not hard. If a man, then it's hard.
We are also men, we understand you.
Though it's hard to be a man, but we can change the world.
I only know there is a saying.
The only ones that can change a man is a woman.
The only ones who can deceive a man is a woman.
Look, someone like Shao Gong, smart and a genius.
Isn't he also in the hands of a woman?
Shao Gong, if Xun Fang really has ties with Lei Yan
What are you going to do?
I don't know.
But no matter what she has done
I will take the responsibility. -Why are you going to take the responsibility?
She is so insidious and vicious... -Xiao Lan.
Xun Fang is not that type of person.
Shao Gong, I did not want to say bad things about her.
I just want to discuss it.
In the past, she may have been as you've said. Noble, kind, gentle, considerate
But she's been gone for so long, how do you know what she has experienced?
Maybe after the natural disaster, she has become a deep scheming, mean, vicious woman.
She has harmed you like that, and you still miss her?
You have to use a fast knife to cut the mess. Wield the knife to chop off the love wire. (means hurry and break up with her)
You don't understand her. She won't hurt me.
She won't harm you? She has already harmed you like this!
Think about it. Was it her doing that time when Aunt Tong got kidnapped by Qing Yun Tan.
Also, the issue of Aunt Tong being in a coma and can't wake up. That might be her doing too! -Not possibile!
Xun Fang is the Princess of Pun Lai.
She has a heart of compassion.
Back then, because she wanted to help me save people
she sacrificed
hundreds of years of her life.
Why would she hurt me?
Why would she hurt my family members?
Hundreds of years of her life? What does that mean?
Back then, Xun Fang and I vacationed around in Zhong Yuen.
We got to a small town.
A plague had broken out there.
Shao Gong,
Looks like the peasants' illnesses are very serious.
I will go take a look.
Drink some water, okay?
Shao Gong.
What these peasants have is the plague. It's contagious.
You leave here first.
There aren't any doctors here. Who is going to take care of us?
Don't think we can live.
Xun Fang, I can't not do anything. I'm going to stay.
Good, hurry and treat them.
Love, is it full of temptation?
Here.
Thank you.
Here, take it.
Here. -Drink some medicine. Slowly.
Don't dare to easily grasp it
Don't dare blame your coldness
Here. -Come, drink some more medicine.
Slowly.
Worried that the rain will fall
Worried that someone is waiting for me at the bamboo pavilion
We are not wrong to fall in love with someone.
We just happened to take a different path at the fork in the road.
Shao Gong, you are tired.
Rest a little bit.
I'm fine.
Why?
Why can't I heal them?
Shao Gong.
We are not wrong to fall in love with someone.
Just I can't accompany you until the end of our life.
Even if no one in the world could understand my broken heart.
I'll still never regret falling in love with someone.
Love, is it full of temptation?
Is it able to silence people?
Is it hidden in a corner within the heart?
I don't dare to say it out loud
It's okay, dad.
It's okay.
Okay now? Okay.
Good now! Good now!
Okay now. Better now.
Xun Fang
Xun Fang.
Shao Gong.
You used your spiritual energy and lost 500 years of your life.
500 years of life
in exchange for peace here
and in exchange for so many peasants' lives,
it's worth it.
You are too silly.
Shao Gong, don't worry. I won't die.
Having you for company in this life
and to grow old with you
a few decades would be enough.
Compared to the 500 years,
if I don't have you be my side
then there is no meaning.
I only used up what I don't need.
Love grows with time and action.
No wonder why after so many years, Shao Gong still cannot forget Princess Xun Fang.
Pun Lai people have very long lives.
But because of me she shorten her life and lost her whole clan of people.
On earth, the only person who can protect her is me.
Even if right now she is controlled by Lei Yan
it must be because of me. It is I who burdened her.
Shao Gong, what is or isn't a burden when you like someone?
I think Xun Fang was willing.
You love her so much. She must be very blessed.
I have caused her to suffer so much pain.
But I couldn't even protect her.
I won't allow anyone else to hurt her.
Who ever hurts her are my enemies.
Shao Gong, just now, I was just guessing.
I didn't want to hurt her.
If she is as good as you've said, then she must have been threaten by Lei Yan.
Aren't we going to go rescue her right now? When she returns, then everything will be okay.
Shao Gong, why did Lei Yan take Xun Fang to the Qin Shi Royal tomb?
What is his purpose?
Lei Yan has been searching for the method of longevity and not aging for years.
He only used Xun Fang to get the Jade Ornament pieces.
I guess there must be some method inside the Qin Shi Royal tomb for him to achieve that goal.
Inside the Royal tomb of Shi?
Could it be
the Moon pearl? -Moon pearl?
I remember this was documented in the ancient books that Honorable Teacher had collected.
That's right. The Moon pearl in the Qin Shi Royal tomb is crystal clear like the moon.
It's said to have the energy of remodeling.
Could it be that now that he has the pieces of the Jade Ornament, he is trying to restore it in the Qin Shi Royal tomb?
I've only heard about the Moon Pearl in legends.
There are so many booby traps in the Qin Shi Royal tomb. 90% of the people who go there die.
Then aren't we going there to die?
Crow mouth!
Even if it is more dangerous, we still have to go.
We must rescue Xun Fang. Find Lei Yan and take back the Jade Ornament.
And also investigate to see if he is the masked man.
Whatever you do, you all must be careful.
Whatever trouble you come upon, don't play hero. Retreat as soon as possible.
Then what are you going to do?
I have once promised to live or die together with Xun Fang.
I have already lost her once. If this time I can't save her,
then I'd rather go to hell with her. (Die with her)
What are you doing here?
I am cooking medicine here.
Why are you cooking medicine?
Because Brother Shao Gong is not here. I see that you must be tired from taking care of Aunt Tony by yourself.
So, I want to help.
But I heard Lan Sheng say that your body just recovered.
If you tire yourself out. He will be upset with me when he returns.
No. I can still do little things like cooking medicine.
But I always cause trouble for TuSu and Qing Xue.
And I don't know how they are right now.
Where they are. I'm so worried about them.
Actually I also wanted to help them.
But just the same, I have the heart but can't help them.
But actually, a lot of things in this world
are not within our control.
Not within our control? Then what should we do if it's not within our control?
Such a normal place. I can't see anything special about it.
It's a royal tomb. Of course it must be more hidden.
If such a Monkey Child like yourself knows about it and goes in to steal something, then what should they do?
What about me? What type of person am I? -You are a monkey child.
Hey, this entrance is guarded by the people of Qing Yun Tan.
I'm afraid the nearby area is also filled with the Qing Yun Tan people.
That's right. We must get this clear.
Xiao Lan, you stay outside. -Me again?
I have gone through all of this trouble to get here with you
and each of you treated me as an assistant and kitchen maid!
No way! In such a crucial moment, my heroic character must battle with you! Must!
Xiao Lan, it is definitely dangerous inside. It would be hard to protect ourselves, let alone protect you.
If you really run into danger
what am I go to tell your second sister?
That's right. If something happens to you, we have to rescue you.
How about you wait here. If we run into anything fun inside, I will tell you all about it later.
Modesty. Modesty my friend. Know your limit and better not drag everyone down.
Hey! Can each of one of you believe in me a little bit?
We are just afraid something will happen to you.
I think we should bring Monkey child with us.
Even though his martial art skill is not high and always causes trouble.
But he always has the the spirit that with the power of one man he can break through the barrier
and he is not the type that would run to save himself
I think maybe Lan Sheng could help us.
You guys listen. You guys listen!
Sister Hong Yu is the only one with insight. There is definitely nothing wrong with taking me along.
I am a lucky star. You must take me along.
Broom star! Glue stick!
Qing Xue. You have used up too much energy recently.
It's too dangerous inside. Best you don't go.
No SuSu! I have to go with you.
Then let us think of a way to get into the Royal tomb.
Lei Yan sent Yuan Wu to take me in. So there must be a safe passage.
Just that there are so many of you, how are you going to get in?
It's too obvious to go in all together like this.
We will split into 2 groups. Shao Gong, you go in first, we'll wait and follow soon after.
Split into 2 groups? Then I should be grouped with the one with the highest magical arts skills, Eldest Senior Brother Ling Yue.
Who told you that his magical arts skills is the highest?
Alright! You guys go as a group and I'll go as another group.
That's okay too.
Qian Shang. You draw them away. Then you guys can split into 2 groups.
We will regroup inside. Everybody be safe first.
Elder Ouyang!
Elder Ouyang. Clan leader is inside. Please.
Let's go.
Clan leader and the rest are inside.
I knew you guys would come.
Release Xunfang.
TuSu, don't worry about me!
Be careful!
Shao Gong! -Shao Gong!
Shao Gong, are you okay? -I am fine!
Search around and see if there is a trigger to open it.
TuSu, don't worry about me! I will figure out a way myself!
There must be another way out. Go take a look around!
See if there is any other way in! Be careful! -Don't worry!
I feel that there is definitely a passage that the workers used to escape.
A hidden passage.
Did I say something wrong?
Monkey Child is very smart this time.
Let's go.
TuSu, let's go.
SuSu.
SuSu be careful!
Hurry up! It's both side. Hurry and push it!
Who has any ideas? I don't want to die!
Help!
Lan Sheng!
Big brother!
It's okay, don't be scared.
Everyone okay? -Everyone's okay.
Frightened me to death!
Lan Sheng. What did you just say when you screamed?
I didn't say anything. I only screamed for help.
And?
Nothing else. What did I scream?
Hurry and run! -Hurry!
Looks like we have reached the inside of the tomb.
Be careful!
Why is there some many clay statues here?
These are terracotta soldiers. Rumor has it that when the Emperor visited the royal tomb
he got ambushed.
After he died, he still wants someone to keep him company. Are all the people here like that?
He is the Emperor. His tomb must be different from the average citizen.
Hey look. Does his face and wooden face over there, look alike?
They look just like real people. I so want to... -Hey!
Don't casually touch the things here. Let's hurry and find the exit.
Okay. -Let's go.
Don't know where Shao Gong is right now.
Honorable Teacher has mentioned to me before that the construction of the Qin Shi Royal tomb is very complicated.
There are 81 tomb sites around here.
There are 16 chambers on the left and right.
On the outside, there is a room of treasures and a room of swords
and various figurines, etc..
Shao Gong left from the hidden passage, but we don't know where it leads to.
Then about how long will it take to get to the center?
We came in from the east. Right now we are walking around the outer chambers of the tomb.
To get to the center, we have only gone through the first ten layers.
I'm afraid we still have a long way to go.
Then do we have to go through all those places?
It depends on the passage you take. I am not sure what's inside either.
Then there must be lots of precious swords inside right?
There should be.
You can only take a look. You definitely can't take them outside.
It is full of booby traps here. If you want to bother Emperor Qin Shi
you can only enter, but won't be able to leave.
Then we can only stay here to accompany the burial.
How does Senior Brother know so much about the Qin Shi Royal tombs?
Honorable Teacher has a good friend who liked to do research about ancient tombs.
Ling Yue, you talk about Honorable Teacher's past behind his back.
Aren't you afraid that Honorable Teacher will know when you return?
Let's go.
Hurry and go open the door. Go! -How to open it?
You all hurry and think of a plan, I'll take care of things here
-Senior Brother! -Go!
It won't open!
-Ling Yue! -Eldest Senior brother!
I'll hold them off here! You guys go first!
Let's hurry and go!
-Let's go! -Senior brother!
Senior brother!
Ling Yue!
-Senior Brother, hurry over here! -Go! Don't worry about me!
-Senior Brother, hurry! -Go!
Senior brother!
Senior Brother! -Quickly go! With my Hui Yu sword, the terracotta soldiers won't be able to fly!
-Don't waste time! -Tusu, we don't have time to waste
-Let's go, Ling Yue will be okay -Tusu, remember!
In the innermost chamber of this tomb there is a way to control all the traps here.
If you guys can find the way to open the doors, you can live!
-Don't waste time! Hurry and go! -Ling Yue, you must be careful!
Hurry and go! Go! -Let's go!
Go!
The thing that you've spent a couple of years to find
is this?
Your highness please forgive me. Your Subject has traveled all around the world
and could not find a person who makes the elixir of life.
Even with the Jade Ornament, there is no way to successfully make it.
Your Subject is at fault, I could only bring back the overseas rumors that one has made the elixir of life.
If you can't find it, you can continue to search for it.
Why did you lie to me?
Your Subject wouldn't dare. I beg your Highness to not be angry.
Your Subject is going to speak frankly. There is no such thing as the elixir of life in this world.
And there definitely are no arts that could cause a person to resurrect from death to life.
Wanting longevity and wanting to resurrect your mother. This is all going against the fate of heaven.
Against the heavens?
I am the heavens
My will is the heaven's will!
Your Highness. There is a reason for the principles of the heavens.
The balance of heaven and earth is to live and die.
Even if there was a way to break the link between heaven and earth, even the San Emperor could not live forever.
For Your Highness, Subject has searched around the whole country even the lands overseas, to the heavens above and the earth below.
I've even asked the Nuwa spiritual scholars
Your Highness, people have a time of poverty.
There is an end to life.
This is the circle of life, an unchanging reality from the beginning.
Humans cannot resurrect from death to life.
And also cannot live forever.
What do you mean?
You have betrayed YouDu and brought back the Jade Ornament. You just wanted to tell me
that the Jade Ornament that can restore people to life from the point of death and resurrect the dead to life,
is fake?
The heavens and earth could testify my heart towards Your Highness.
I was confused for a moment and believed in error the writings of the ancient skin scroll.
I thought the Jade Ornament could make humans resurrect from death to life. I never thought.
Not too long ago, I'd found the last page written on a turtle board.
And found that the Jade Ornament could only attract spirits.
But definitely could not resurrect people back to life.
As to these medicine pills you've made
you eat them!
Other people, I will allow them to accompany the burial.
In this world there really are no arts to resurrect from death to life.
Elder Ouyang, I didn't think you could find this place so quickly.
Where is Xun Fang? -Miss Xun Fang is at the side of Clan Leader Lei.
Show the way. -Please.
Which direction should we go?
-How about we split up between the two? -We must not!
This place is complicated and confusing. I've also heard of a lake of mercury
If we don't get to the center, then the poisonous air will kill us. We will die without a complete body.
A place as dangerous as this might only have one exit path
and the other path leads to doom
There is still a distance from here to the chamber of the coffin.
Right now, we don't know where Shao Gong is. The most important thing right now is to regroup with Shao Gong.
My turn.
That's enough.
There are so many swords here.
Could this be the chamber of swords that senior brother mentioned?
I think this sword pavilion is much more grand than the sword pavilion in Tian Yong City.
Of course it is. All the swords here are Qin swords.
After so many years, they are now ancient swords.
So of course they are different from the swords of today.
TuSu.
-TuSu. -It's okay.
Just that the Sword of Burning Solitude feels the spirits of the swords here.
The swords of the Royal tomb is full of righteous aura.
The Sword of Burning Solitude feels the pressure and is threated, so the evil aura is acting abnormally.
From the ancient times till now, evil cannot overcome the righteous. This is actually true.
I'm guessing these swords are from the Qin dynasty, and were left behind by all the generals who tried to protect the royal tomb.
So you're saying that they are more powerful than the Sword of Burning Solitude?
Let's hurry and leave here.
Are you crazy? The door has closed. How can we get out?
Don't argue. I think the trigger switch must be in certain place.
From what I've analysed, there must be a sword that leads hundreds of swords. (Master sword=sword that leads hundreds of swords)
And the trigger switch must be at this master sword being controlled by it.
Then which one is the master sword?
Master sword? I guess the master of this sword must be a person above all.
Tian Zhi sword, it might have the power to lead. Everybody look around and check what's printed on the swords.
Is it this one?
Meng Tian?
Meng Tian? Isn't he the Qin general who defeated the State of Qi?
This is a general's sword. Search again. -It's not this sword?
Susu? Are you okay?
Did you find it?
Nothing
-How did it go? -Couldn't find it
I remember that I once read in a book that when the assassin attacked, the Emperor Shi's Black sword could not be defeated.
Then if you put it that way, the sword should be longer than the rest
Is it that one?
This sword isn't that long.
Look, this sword doesn't have a dragon emblem on it.
Hurry and go!
Who dares come?
Why have you brought an evil item to the midst of this tomb
to disturb the Emperor's rest?
Since you are a sword immortal that has slumbered long inside, why did you suddenly wake up?
I am the lone guardian to guard the entrance and exit of the sword chamber.
Since you've come today.
Not even one of you can think about leaving.
