[Wu Xin The Monster Killer]
Episode 17
Run!
Yue Ya, you got up so early?
Look at the time. How is this early?
According to tradition, it was your wedding night yesterday.
You woke up so early...
Does that mean Dharma Master isn't very "capable"?
How is it any of your business?
Why are you so nosy? Get lost!
Good morning, Dharma Master.
I'll show you if I am "capable" or not.
Qi Luo, look. Is this gold ore?
Uncover this place!
- Get the rope ladder ready. - Yes!
The two of them will accompany me into the cave later.
Stay and guard this place with your men.
- I'll go down with you. - That's not necessary.
All right.
Be careful.
Wait here for me.
I'll take a look up there.
Yes.
This is what I've built up over the past century.
You destroyed it completely?
Zhang Xian Zong! Pull me up right away!
What's wrong? What happened?
You're injured?
We have to get out of here first. We mustn't stay here much longer.
Seal the cave and leave the mountain quickly.
As for the rest, we'll discuss it when we get home.
- Seal the cave! - Yes!
The two of you! Seal the cave!
Does it still hurt?
I'm all right.
How badly are you hurt?
It won't kill me.
It's just a pity that this body will go to waste.
If this body is damaged, it is all Wu Xin's fault.
I have to snatch Yue Ya.
Even if I don't use her body, I will also destroy her to vent my anger.
Bear with it.
Fortunately, your bones aren't hurt.
You didn't get poisoned either.
It's just your skin that's rubbed off.
You find it so painful because your ankle was dislocated.
Just hang on.
It doesn't hurt anymore?
I'll get my men to buy a few more ointments downtown.
Don't walk around for the next few days.
- Zhang Xian Zong. - Yes?
Why do you treat me so kindly?
Because I love you.
But I don't love you.
I know that.
But that is all right.
As long as I can take care of you and stay with you
I'm already satisfied.
Doesn't it take mutual affection to define love?
You can be in love when there's mutual affection.
Sadly, there aren't that many people who are mutually attracted.
It's very difficult to be in love.
There are more people who are like me.
As for me, if I've fallen in love, then I'm in love.
Who cares if my feelings are reciprocated?
Zhang Xian Zong, I do not love you.
But I will protect you.
All right.
It's done.
You took back those pieces of mineral ore?
I'll be honest with you.
There's indeed a gold mine down there.
But I'd advise you not to touch it.
Why not?
I once shut myself away down in that cave for decades.
I've always known that there is a gold mine next to it.
But I never once touched it.
You found the gold ore today because someone accidentally
broke down the walls.
Would you dare to touch something that I don't even dare to?
But if even I can tell that there's a gold mine
Gu Xuan Wu must have as well.
Would they...
Why don't you spread some news?
Make it known to them that you're digging up this gold mine.
Here, have a drink!
Do you know about gold mines?
- No. - I have some news.
Our commander is going to dig up a gold mine in the mountains.
- Dig up a gold mine? - Exactly.
That sounds good.
Once that goes well, we'll be living in great comfort.
Listen up, I heard that Commander Zhang is going to dig up a gold mine!
- Really? - It's absolutely true.
All right, I have to go.
- Let's go, Driver. - Yes!
- Here. - Yes.
Commander Zhang is going to dig up a gold mine!
Really?
- Listen up. - What is it?
I heard that Commander Zhang's going to dig up a gold mine.
- Where is it? - In the West Mountain.
- I heard he's taking two battalions. - Two battalions?
- So many people? How big is it? - Exactly.
Commander in chief!
Zhang Xian Zong has sent his men to dig up the gold mine.
What? Zhang Xian Zong!
What the heck is Zhang Xian Zong?
He is but a nobody!
How dare he lay his hands on the gold mine?
It's just because he's closer to it.
So what if he's closer to it?
Just because he's close to it he overestimates himself?
All right, we don't have to wait till spring.
Tomorrow take our men to take over the gold mine first.
Yes, Chief!
Get yourself a wife soon.
You're always depending on me and I have to help you with everything.
Aren't you my sister?
Go on and make me some snacks.
I heard you.
Gu, do you have to go?
What else can I do?
Commander in chief already gave the orders. How can I not go?
I find that gold mine a bit weird.
What about it?
When I went in there with Chu Chen Zi, we ran into something.
What is it?
We escaped too fast to take a good look at it.
It's a huge bundle of dark shadows.
It's quite big.
It seems very difficult to tackle.
It's a bear?
No. Definitely not.
What if you run into it when you're digging in the gold mine?
Don't worry about running into it or not.
I don't want to go there in such a rush either.
I had wanted to train those men the Chief assigned to me.
I wanted to nurture some to be my confidants.
But now that Chief has changed his plan, mine will have to change as well.
I can't just take a troop of men I barely know into the mountain.
If anything goes wrong, I'm worried that I can't suppress them.
You're right.
It's that bastard Zhang Xian Zong's fault.
Why does he have to go against me in everything?
I'll have to get rid of him sooner or later!
You should focus on what you have to do now first.
Don't bother about that.
If I really do run into anything, I'll just blow it all up!
How courageous.
Courageous?
Stop right there!
Come over here and sit down.
What does a little lass know?
I just have to warn you. Be a bit more cautious.
This isn't such a simple task.
Don't jinx me. Touch wood.
Listen, where there's a will there is a way.
I won't go with you this time.
That place is too close to Wen County.
If I get spotted by Yue Qi Luo, it will only cause you trouble.
That's true.
That is true...
Just stay here at ease then.
Be very careful.
If anything happens, seal the cave right away.
- Then tell me about it. - All right.
Don't worry.
Brigade Commander, the tents are almost set up.
Inspect this area very closely.
Most importantly, check for paper dolls or strips of linen.
Yes!
Be careful.
Come here.
- Here are some sunflower seeds. - All right.
Look at this. Here, here, and there.
All right. Brigade Commander Gu.
- Look at these figures. - Report! Sir!
The inspection is accomplished. Everything is normal.
Did you find anything suspicious?
There are no linen strips or paper dolls around.
- Good. Get back to work. - Yes!
Brigade Commander Gu, since everything is in order
we should take a look down in the cave as soon as possible.
But...
Before we left, Commander in chief kept reminding us again and again
that we have to act swiftly in the picketing of the mine.
If we don't do some prospecting, how do we extract gold ore?
Exactly.
You should all get ready then. Be sure to stay cautious.
Don't worry. This is after all our expertise.
Hurry up! Make the best of time!
Yes!
These are amulets. Be sure to keep one on you at all times.
It will keep you safe. Don't take it off.
Come back as soon as you can. Be very careful.
- All right. - Grab your gear quickly.
Hu, it seems there is some sound?
This is fine. Let's start working.
All right.
How long have they been in there?
A little more than two hours.
A little more than two hours?
Why haven't they come up yet?
Could that foul-mouthed Wu Xin really have got it right?
Brigade Commander!
Are you all right?
Who is that? Take a look! Quickly!
Are you all right?
Here.
I'm all right.
Here, give him a hand.
Quickly! Give him a hand!
- Here. - How are you?
I'm all right.
What is the situation down there?
It's all right.
There was an explosion in that cave.
The rocks are slightly loosened.
We drilled too deep just now and triggered a small landslide.
We were slightly shocked, but luckily it was all fine.
Don't worry. It's not serious.
It's good as long as you're fine.
It's good as long as you're fine!
Comrades! You've worked hard!
Let's go! Wine and meat are waiting for you!
Sure.
What did Commander Gu say?
Not much. It was all just a load of nonsense.
It's just to tell us everything is fine so we won't be worried.
That's great.
I said I'm not eating, but why do I start eating again?
What is it?
I've been so bored lately and I keep craving sunflower seeds.
I got blisters from cracking the shells.
Come here.
Show me.
You'd better stop having them.
I heard a new phrase in the play.
It's called "honeymoon."
Honeymoon? What is that?
It's after two people are married
they take a trip somewhere for a month before they come home.
Where to?
Anywhere would do. Just anywhere that we've never been.
That's quite interesting.
Where would you like to go?
How would I know?
I'm just a countryside girl.
Apart from my hometown, I've only been to Wen County and Tianjin.
Why don't we go to Beiping?
- Is it far away? - No.
We'll get there after a nap on the train.
Let's go and have a look!
Yes! It's so lively!
Great!
Let's dance as well.
Could you hold this for me? Thank you!
You're so pretty.
It's so funny!
Why don't you sit down?
Are you ready?
Three, two, one!
Brigade Commander, look.
After prospecting five times, we can now make a decision.
This gold mine might not have a big reserve
but the quality is still quite high.
It is worth picketing. We can now start extracting the ore.
We can start now?
Yes. Commander in chief means for us to start as soon as possible.
The sooner we finish the sooner we can leave.
But we have to wait for a few days for picketing specialists
and equipment to get here.
You went in there so many times but you didn't run into anything?
Run into what?
Just... something that might seem quite dangerous?
There's always risk in extracting and exploring a mine.
But as long as we take caution and refrain from any unnecessary actions
no accidents will happen.
It seems that they really didn't run into anything.
We didn't discover anything else.
Good!
If so, we'll follow Commander in chief's orders.
Didn't he want us to act quickly?
We should act fast.
Don't we still have a lot of soldiers here with us?
We'll let them go into the cave first!
They can dig up some stones first.
What do you think?
That will do.
- I'll give some orders now. - All right.
Come in.
Gu Xuan Wu has started digging up the gold mine.
Good, we'll wait to watch a good show.
What good show?
Why do you think I didn't allow you to dig up the gold mine?
There is something evil lurking in it.
Whoever digs in it dies.
By the way, didn't Wu Xin go with him?
He didn't.
Once something goes wrong, I don't believe that he will stay away.
There's no sign of movement.
Why isn't there any sign of movement when they have been in there for so long?
Why don't we take a look?
Let's wait for a while longer.
Help!
- Quickly! - Help!
Help!
Save me!
Help!
Save me!
Please save me!
Go on! Quickly!
Help!
Go!
Quickly! Seal the cave!
Hurry up! Seal the cave!
Sir!
- Leave the tent. - Yes.
How are both of you recovering?
Tell me the truth. What did you see in the mine that day?
Speak up!
There's a monster! It's a huge monster!
It's a shadow!
It's a man-eating shadow. It came at us right away!
At that time, we did all we could to escape.
We saw our comrades fall to the ground one by one.
In a split second, even their flesh was devoured.
Only... Only their bones were left!
- Only bones were left! - Shadows!
- Shadows... - Monster...
Bones...
Are both of them injured?
Don't worry, sir. We've already checked very thoroughly.
They don't have any physical injuries.
This isn't about physical injuries.
- It should be here. - Here?
- Go and take care of them. - Yes!
Brigade Commander, you asked to see me?
I've figured out what happened during the day.
They alarmed a bear in the mine when they were digging.
A bear accidentally attacked men.
- A bear? - Yes.
Tell them not to spread any rumors or stir up any gossip.
Anyone who violates my order will be punished according to military law.
Yes!
And keep those two medics apart from others.
Try not to let them approach anyone else. subtitles ripped by riri13
Yes!
What is that sound?
Over there! Take a look!
What is that?
Search!
Search for it!
I found a metal rod.
Captain, look!
There's also a metal rod here.
A metal rod?
Did they leave these behind during the day?
- Keep searching! - Yes!
They said that they ran into a bear.
There's a bear in the cave?
Who knows? There might really be one.
Bears are so fierce?
I heard that a man lost half of his body.
There are a lot of bears in my hometown.
They can smack a man's face into pieces with their paws.
- Really? - Yes.
All right, let's not talk about it.
Freshen up quickly.
I won't go with you this time.
That place is too close to Wen County.
If I get spotted by Yue Qi Luo, it will only cause you trouble.
What is it exactly?
I'll get some explosives to blow it up.
Once I blow it up, then wouldn't it be just fine?
Listen, I can still drink two kilos of wine...
- Keep boasting! - Who's boasting?
You already...
I'm helping you...
Who are you helping? I'm the one helping you.
Look.
You can't do it.
I was just tripped by a stone...
What sound is that?
Run!
Brigade Commander.
Sir! Sir!
Wake up! Something has gone wrong!
- Something went wrong? - Yes!
Brigade Commander, last night the two of them
slipped out of the mountain to get some drinks and stayed out all night.
This morning when we were out on a patrol we found them dead!
But we don't know why they ended up like this!
As long as I am here, none of you should be scared.
Clean up the scene!
Yes!
Did those men in the mine die the same way as well?
I think it's probably true.
Brigade Commander still claimed that a bear did that.
- Who is he trying to fool? - Exactly! Bears can't do that.
Who knew that Brigade Commander would lie to us?
Isn't that disregarding our lives?
Exactly!
- Brigade Commander! - Brigade Commander!
Send a reliable messenger to Tianjin.
Invite the Chief's Dharma Master over.
Yes!
Dharma Master, come inside.
Dharma Master!
Dharma Master...
Something's gone wrong at the gold mine!
Commander Gu has asked you to go over there!
Don't panic. Come in and have some water first.
Come in.
I understand.
Here, have some water.
Thank you.
Something's gone wrong at Commander Gu's.
Let's pack up and head over there right away.
Sure. It's the cold spell in spring, so I'll bring him a fur jacket.
I'll go and get ready.
Wait a minute.
I'm thinking of bringing another person with me.
Sure.
- Go on. - All right.
Taoist Master Chu Chen Zi, please allow me to introduce
the British historian, Mr. James Wilson.
He's here especially to visit you.
He's here to get a better understanding of the mysterious history
of Qing Yun Monastery.
Speaking of our history, where should I begin?
A period of great history must be made up of great men.
Mr. Wilson said that great history consists of great men.
Therefore, please start by introducing some great men in Qing Yun Monastery.
When it comes to the history of Qing Yun Monastery
it really dates back generations ago.
The monastery was founded some 400 years ago.
I have to say without modesty that we have had a lot of great men.
- Take me for... - Master.
Dharma Master Wu Xin is here to visit you.
Excuse me, gentlemen. Please have some tea first.
I'll be back shortly.
Sure.
It means that shadow is quite tough?
You're right.
We'll take this opportunity to eliminate it.
You can handle such a trivial matter alone.
I still have to make good use of my time to mend the charm.
Go on.
You'll run a lot faster with my help.
This is...
Allow me to make the introductions.
- This is British historian Mr. Wilson. - Nice to meet you.
He is here especially to visit Taoist Master Chu Chen Zi.
He'd like to know about the mysterious history of Qing Yun Monastery.
This is one of my close friends.
You just said you have an emergency at home, so why don't you run along?
There's no rush. I just heard that both of you
would like to know about the history of Qing Yun Monastery.
Then I have to bring up someone.
- Please have a seat. - Sit, please.
This person is the master's grand junior master.
Wen County's warlord, Zhang Xian Zong
- has a ninth mistress. - Thank you for coming.
We'll end the interview here today.
There's no rush. I'll leave after speaking to Mr. Wilson.
You're not in a rush, but I am.
Please explain to Mr. Wilson that we'll call it a day.
I'm really sorry about this.
We'll take our leave then.
Mr. Wilson, I'm really sorry.
I'm truly sorry about this.
They are leaving?
I'll see them out as well.
Goodbye, sir.
Take care.
Wu Xin! You've really gone overboard today!
Taoist Master, don't get worked up.
My old friend, Mr. Wang, is a famous storyteller in Tianjin.
Perhaps he'll be particularly interested in your story.
I dare you!
Don't push me.
Do you believe I'll do that now?
He might even be able to add some exciting bits to your story.
Step aside.
Stop right there!
I'll go with you!
Old immortal! You're finally here!
Lass, you've put on weight again?
I haven't seen you for a long time.
You now have thick arms and a big bottom?
What do you know about it? This is called curvy.
And stop calling him Old Immortal.
He still looks like a young man.
You're quite loving.
Why do you both seem to look younger and younger?
It's like a rising bun.
Be careful not to get stolen away.
If anyone gets stolen away, it'll be you.
Dharma Master, I'll be serious now. I don't know what went on these days
but everyone here is in a panic.
It's only been a few days and some of my soldiers already fled.
What should I do?
All right, we'll perform a ritual.
What for? It's not as if this place is haunted.
See, that is what you don't understand.
Rumors and gossip are usually partially true.
So is a ritual.
It will counteract the rumors.
They go hand in hand.
Explain it in simple words.
Taoist Master Chu Chen Zi is a favorite of Commander in chief.
A human deity who is known by everyone in the world.
Nothing will work better than a ritual performed by him.
At least you still have some common sense.
Commander Gu, don't worry.
Leave it to me to stabilize the morale of your troops.
Lass, let's go.
Wonderful!
Taoist Master is remarkable!
They both kill monsters...
But why are they so different?
Can you stop eating that?
What do we do next after we're done with the ritual?
I'm here, am I not?
I'm not here to play.
Brigade Commander Gu, let's head back.
Wu Xin, not even a mosquito can escape from that stone door.
There's nothing at all.
All is well. Let's head home.
Don't!
Don't go home yet!
My holy gods! I've already lost over 10 men!
I need to be able to explain the situation!
What am I to do if you can't explain it?
I've looked around all day, but there's nothing here.
Hold it!
Who knows? Those little monsters might take a break in daytime
and only come out at night.
Those two men who were killed sneaked outside to grab a drink at night
and died on the way back!
Now that you mention it, that's highly possible.
We'll make a final attempt.
Let's try our luck tonight.
Do you mean that you're staying here in the wilderness at night?
- Exactly! - Not me.
It's us.
Listen, my time is very precious.
I don't have time to fool around with you.
The story of the ninth mistress...
No... Could I not join you tonight?
You should head back to pack your things.
We still have to come here at night. Let's not waste any time.
Wu Xin!
