Episode 48
Right now all of the Han armory
are busy making weapons.
The supply line is also advancing.
With the way you're ordering your soldiers and feeding your horses, If not to spark a war, what are they for?
Brother, have you thought of this before?
If the world really is split in two, then what would it be like?
Han and Chu will have to guard against the other day and night.
So then, let's not talking about demobilizing. There will only be more militarization.
How are the civilians supposed to recover and live?
One red line, can it really divide the world in half?
A proverb comes to mind: The sky does not have two suns.
Xiang Yu and I can temporarily withdraw our troops and cease, but after time passes who will still be willing?
In the end, it will still be war.
Civilians will be be enduring hardships.
In my view
I only have one choice to unify the whole world!
At that time, only then can the world rest its troops.
and civilians will have peace.
What do you think?
Big Brother
Brother, no matter what is said.
Xiang Yu, you, and I were originally brothers.
If in the future you obtained the world, and he's in your hands
Can you leave him with his life?
Brother, according to your understanding of Xiang Yu,
do you think he will be willing to be captured?
Then it wouldn't be Xiang Yu.
Exactly, exactly. But brother, if I fall into Xiang Yu's hands,
I hope you'll put in few good words for me.
That's why you are Liu Bang.
That's why the world will be yours.
What Liu Bang said, wasn't unrealistic.
Everything in this world is interconnected.
Sooner or later this war is still going to be fought.
What I cannot accept is Xiang Yu and Xiao Yue's destiny.
Doesn't matter if I'm willing to accept it or not.
All of this is occurring around me. All becoming a part of history.
Since I can't stop the footsteps of history.
why should I try to resist it?
Whether you live or die, human life doesn't surpass a hundred years.
Success or failure, once you turn your head, everything becomes empty again.
Why should I try to create an outcome?
I've come back again
Yu Shu
I haven't killed Lu Zhi
and haven't killed Gao Yao.
Because I realized
even if I killed them both,
it would not remove the pain in my heart.
And definitely won't make it so you can return to my side.
At this moment,
the pain in my heart is still as intense.
But
I have found a way to cure this suffering.
There is a lot of things I can do.
There is a lot of people, waiting for my help.
So I am going to leave you for a period of time
I don't know how long
But I promise you
I will come and see you often
Another ruler sits,
reflecting his sins.
Fate has it's own
period where the wall crumbles.
I understand now
You want me to calm my heart.
To ponder what I've gained and lost during these years.
Thank you for your advice.
I've also realized two things.
Sharpen a stone for 3 years,
and obtain evil.
As soon as morning penetrates through,
join the world.
From now on...
Yi Xiao Chuan will no longer escape from the world.
But will enter the world and live.
Excuse me young man.
What are you making?
I'm playing chess.
Oh? What kind of chess is this?
This old man has never seen it before.
This is called Xiang Qi.
You see, these red pieces represent the red clothed Han army.
The black pieces represent the black clothed Chu army.
Soldier, horse (cavalry), officer, lord; Advancing and retreating path orders.
Just like the two armies fighting each other on the battlefield.
Oh, this canal
is the canal the separated the world between Chu and Han.
Interesting. Very interesting.
Such a small square and yet a battle with thousands of troops are fought.
Young man,
can you teach me how to play Xiang Qi?
Ah, that's great.
is tired from playing (by myself).
Come
- This old man lost. - Cheng Rang**[A humble reply for someone who won.]
Aiya, this Xiang Qi
really is full of surprises and mysteries.
Currently, Chu and Han are in the middle of a war.
If only their battle can be resolved on this square.
How much bloodshed could it have prevented?
Just a shame that they themselves don't think that way.
Boatman! Boatman! Come here quickly!!!
Brother Yu Xiao Yue
This is the Wu River.
Wu River Suicide. (Historic Reference)
No I must go and save them
Formation!
Lord, Xiao Yue come here, come here.
Listen to me! Xiao Yue!
Xiang Yu will undoubtedly die today.
Come here, come here!
-Release me - Lord
Older brother, it's already been three years since I left Xian Yang.
I'm not the old Xiao Yue anymore..
But the wife of the overlord.
Whether alive or dead,
Xiao Yue will stay at the overlord's side forever.
Such spirit of a fine woman!
No doubt, the wife of the Overlord of Western Chu.
- Come then. - Come over here.
Listen soldiers of Han.
He who takes Xiang Yu's head will be rewarded 1000 gold and dubbed marquis.
What are you waiting for?
Charge forward! Get Xiang Yu's head.
Kill, Kill!
No, don't do it.
Don't do it, no!
Beast!
You killed my little sister!
You killed my little sister! I'll fight to death with you.
You...
Can't!
Chop Xiang Yu's head off! Kill!
Little Sister!
Lord, Lord, Lord!
Xiao Yue!
King Xiang, I am leaving a step ahead of you.
No, you will be alright.
I have not seen enough of the Great King yet.
I'm not ready yet
to leave just like this.
No.
I'm not going to let you leave, not going to let you leave.
You can't leave me.
Xiao Yue!
I haven't take good care of her.
Take her away.
I don't want my loved one to get in the hands of the enemy.
Big Brother,
We should get back to Jiang Dong.
Jiang Dong will have a place for us to make our stand.
8,000 young men from Jian Dong...
One live person can't return them all.
How will I have the face to show the elders of Jian Dong.
I have already lost one family member today.
I don't want to lose a second one.
We don't have to go back to Jiang Dong.
We can go to somewhere else.
Right now, the place I really want to be
is the place where she went to.
I am the Western Conqueror King.
I can only die on the battle field with honour.
I will not simply run away.
Lord, Xiang Yu is currently surrounded.
Why don't My Lord go have a rest at the camp and wait for good news.
You want me to back out, don't you?
I wouldn't dare.
But then again, I can't blame you.
In the past, when I fought with Xiang Yu, I had to withdraw and give up.
But today is the last battle.
I will definitely not back out.
Pass the order! All who march forward one step, will be rewarded.
Those who back off a step, execute.
Yes.
Don't be scared.
King Xiang, you're already down to your last straw, yet still so impressive.
You are really an unbendable and firm hero.
I, Liu Bang admire you. But you're no match for me.
Today . . . even if I die . . .
I'm still the Overlord of Western Chu!
Fine.
I'll give you what you want.
Kill!
Remembering the past,
clapping our hands to pledge
to become brothers.
I didn't think
that today we'd gather at Wu River.
...at the special path of the Dead.
Xiao Yue.
I'm coming.
Da Chuan, is it here?
Yes, it should be here.
What the ancient map directed at was this body of water.
Aiyo, look.
There are no houses in the vicinity. Who would live here?
There's someone over there painting. Let's go over and see.
Mister, aren't you painting the in front?
Don't bother him.
What she said is right.
What I'm painting is not the view in front of me,
but the image that I recall.
This piece is a scene that occurred countless times in my dreams.
That's why I'm here every day painting the same painting.
I've heard of Impressionism.
Perhaps your ism is illusionism?
That name is rather interesting.
That's right, you've come at the right time.
This painting is almost ready except for a few strokes.
Ah right, a moment ago, you gave the illusionism name.
I'l give this painting to you as a gift.
Really? You want to give it to me?
Thank you.
Sir, then can you tell me what this painting stands for?
Why is the lake water red?
I'm just guessing this place, in ancient times, was the Wu River Dock.
According to legend, Western Chu Overlord Xiang Yu killed himself here in the river.
I think this soldier in black clothes must be him
and this lake water has been polluted by his blood.
Xiang Yu unified the world and was also a Son of Heaven.
That soldier wearing black clothes,
can he possibly be Wu Long?
I think that too.
This water turning red, doesn't it become Red Water?
The Overlord committed suicide at Wu River.
Isn't that Wu Long falls into in Red Water?
You're right, you're right.
It is "Wu Long falls into Red Water."
Can I ask you you know this riddle?
Do you know this riddle too?
Is is possible that you are the descendant of the Water Wanderer?
May I ask who you are?
I'm a descendant of the Gold Wanderer.
We came to find the descendant of the Water Wanderer,
and to find the red ring that has been passed on to him.
Do you have any proof?
We've already found the Wood Wanderer and Earth Wanderer.
Plus the Gold Wanderer's ring, that would bring the total to three rings.
They've all been inserted in this.
But the last two rings, we still haven't found.
My ancestors have guarded this for more than two thousand years.
It's finally done.
Our ancestors can rest in peace now.
Have a look.
Looks like this dream world may not be an illusion after all.
Now we've found the forth ring.
I don't know when the fifth ring will be found.
Don't worry, we will definitely find it.
Everyone worked so hard.
What do you want?
Do what?
I'm advising you not to resist,
otherwise these two old people will have to suffer.
From now on you have to believe that you are the descendant of the Fire Wanderer.
Every word you say may be questioned by them.
Have you remembered it?
This is your listening device. I'll be keeping tabs on your movement and listen in.
I'll wait until the last secret is revealed before I appear.
At the time, your mission will be over.
The secret you're talking about... What is it?
I also don't know.
It has been said that when all five elements are present,
the secret will be revealed.
Quickly, quickly go.
Quickly go.
Quickly, quickly.
Seems like they've gone.
Really? Are you alright?
I'm fine. How about you?
Da Chuan! Da Chuan, are you alright?
Are you alright?
Lan Lan. OK, are you alright?
I'm fine.
Da Chuan, are you alright?
Look!
Luo La?
Miss Luo!
Miss Luo! Quick!
Why is it her?
Da Chuan, be careful!
-Da Chuan -Da Chuan
Da Chuan!
Da Chuan
- Da Chuan - Miss Luo
What's going on? Why are you here?
I don't know.
Aunty, Uncle,
Why are you all here?
This question I should ask you.
- Why are you here? - A friend made an appointment to discuss something with me.
and then we went to a place called Hong Men Yan.
I saw someone wearing all black clothes.
After that he kidnapped me.
As so why I'm here . . . I can't seem to remember.
This person in black... Why didn't he kidnap someone else?
Gao Lan!
I don't know.
Where did you rings come from?
What? Miss Luo . . . have you seen these rings before?
First tell me, where did those rings come from?
Miss Luo, I'm the descendant of the Gold Wanderer.
That is the descendant of the Water Wanderer.
We all know a chant phrase. Besides that we all have these rings.
Have you heard of a "Gatekeeper whom makes a cocoon suffer from flames" chant?
"Wu Long falls into the Red Water."
That's right, I'm the descendant of the Fire Wanderer.
