Ban Dashi! (Ban Dashi =Mohists leader)
Ban Dashi! -Old Fellow Ban!
No. What are you doing?
Everyone all waiting for you to talk.
I'm sorry, little Zhi.
I have embarrassed myself.
I'm okay.
Come,come,come.
Continue with talking. Just now where are we up to with the talk?
Inside this stone cave, there are indeed some very important mechanisms.
But, because it hasn't been used for many years,
I locked it away.
If it's necessary, I can open it again.
I think it will be very easy to make it move.
Xiao Jiu
Not see! Just not see! What is there?!
Senior Brother! Senior Brother!
Help me...help me. How is this happened?
Just let me sit down.
Come.
Slow a bit.
Be careful.
Who did this again?
Who else could it be?
Master beat me.
Did you get into trouble again?
Don't say an unpleasant thing to hear like that.
How is it getting into trouble?
I was just walking a bit too close to him and he found me.
You secretly followed Teacher again?
How did you know? Just a little bit more, and
I will be able to follow and see him went inside the forbidden place.
Is that secret place somewhere you can go just because you want to?
I've already said so long ago! Only Mohist's Chief Engineer can enter there.
You're deliberately violate it.
Master hit you were already regarded as light.
Okay,okay,okay. You are Master's good disciple.
You abide by the rules, okay?
Seriously...
Each and every one of you. Take a look at your fake righteous manner.
What's wrong with having a look?
Would it be broken if I just took a look?
Could you just try not to think of all these crazy ideas?
From now on, work hard and learn well.
After you become the Mohist Chief Engineer,
Then you can openly go in!
Forgive me, okay?
With such a genius Senior Brother before me,
Can I still dream of becoming the Chief Engineer? Seriously!
A bit lighter.
Say, Senior Brother. What do you think is in that forbidden area?
I've heard them say,
that on the walls of the forbidden grounds are written all the different sect's ways of making mechanisms!
I don't think that's the only things there.
Just those things are meaningless.
I bet that there's mechanism secrets that we haven't even seen before!
How meaningful!
One day...I swear! One day, I will go in and read everything there!
Ju Zi ! Ju Zi ! Ju Zi !
Ju Zi! Ju Zi! Ju Zi!
Hello, everyone.
Eldest Senior Brother
Congratulations, Eldest Senior Brother!
To be promoted to the leadership position!
-Enough. -So?
You should give me a red envelope, right?
Junior Brother! Your manners are getting worse!
You dare to ask Ju Zi for a red envelope?
Yes. In so many years, this kid has never followed rules.
I've gotten used to it.
Right.
Xiao Jiu
I have taken the leadership position now,
But the Chief Engineer position is still empty.
So...I will keep the key to the secret chamber for now.
I hope that you all can continue to work hard to learn.
I believe that within three years,
after you have passed through all the tests,
then I will personally hand this key to you.
Work hard.
Second Senior Brother! Don't forget! When that happens, take me inside to see!
Enough, you're saying that again?
No. Ju Zi, let me tell you!
I really want to go and see what secrets are inside!
Father is gravely ill. Return quickly
to succeed the position of the clan leader.
Xiao Jiu
Senior Brother. No, Ju Zi.
You...what are you doing here?
There's something I couldn't find.
I was afraid that a dog or cat had brought it here.
So, I was looking around.
Hurry! That way!
There's someone over there!
One of you two piggyback him.
There shouldn't be anyone else nearby.
Let's carry him back to the Practice Court.
Okay.
What are you pushing me for?
You carry him!
You're a fighter, I'm good-for-nothing.
Moreover, Sister Rong doesn't want me to use strength.
You know to use that as an excuse now?
Then why were you jumping up and down just now?
Because I was rejected,
so I became deeply aware of the fact that I'm good-for-nothing.
You know that you're worthless but you still want to take me down with you?
Do you think I'm the same as you, worthless?
You... What's wrong with me?
What are you saying?
You don't talk like a human!
This is the way I speak, what can you do about it?
I insist on interfering!
Stop making such a fuss!
Fighting the war is the main thing now.
Is saving people not?
Since neither of you are willing to carry him,
then fine! In the future when either of you get hurt, don't expect me to help you!
Yue Er.
You wear a long face all day long.
You only know how to complain and do nothing.
That's what is truly worthless!
Hurry and carry him and leave with me!
Yue Er...I
Let me. -Let me.
You let go! Let me.
You let go! I..
Weren't you disallowed to use strength?
I can use my strength now, go away!
That is the plan.
It's a bit dangerous, but I feel like it's worth a try.
Your method is indeed a bit dangerous.
But there are no other methods in front of us.
All of you say something!
Let's not think so much!
Let's just decide on this! How are we going to do it?
We can't be indecisive any longer.
The more we drag things out, the more dangerous it is!
That's right! Old Ge,
lead us now!
We will all listen to you!
Destroy them!
That's right.
I think you should agree to leading.
The plan is yours. You should know best how to do it.
Yes.
Xiao Zhi.
Do you have any thoughts on Old Ge leading us?
But...th-this...why are you asking me?
What does this have to do with me?
Look at the way you look!
Okay! Since it's like this, we'll decide on this plan.
Old Ge, you will lead all of the Mohist disciples!
In such a serious situation, I cannot refuse.
Because of the high expectations, we will certainly do our best!
Do our best! Do our best!
The fate of the city depends on this battle. Let's get out of here.
To go out! To go out!
Is it really Ju Zi?
Junior Brother, what's wrong with Senior Brother?
Senior Brother...is dead.
That's impossible! He was fine yesterday!
Yes. Everything...was very sudden.
Senior Brother said that after he died, he would be just like the previous leaders.
His body is to be put into the middle of the forbidden grounds.
The difference is...
He will take the Chief Engineer's key with him into the forbidden grounds.
Only when the choice has been made on who to take the position, can one enter the forbidden grounds to take it out.
Everyone gather in the main hall,
And then discuss together who is to succeed Ju Zi's position.
I'm stuck! So annoying.
Don't!
Senior Brother!
Xiao Jiu.
No. I should call you Gong Shu Chou!
Come up!
Junior, did you already guess that I've returned?
This last passageway, you definitely won't think of it!
Only when people enters the forbidden zone, triggering the mechanical traps and the affected cogwheels,
will this secret passage appear between the gaps of the cogwheels.
However...
Who should go in?
Let me tell you! I'm being dragged down by you worthless thing!
-Who's dragging you down? -You!
- You are dragging me down. You are useless. - Who saved you? Do you remember?
You are attacking Mechanism City for this kid?
It's Zhao Gao who wants him.
Not me.
What's so special about him?
He just said that within his body is a beyond normal power.
How interesting.
If you are capable, you should be fighting out there, but you are still here with me. Who told you to stay with me?
Because I like being with you!
If you are as skilled as you claim, why don't you go to fight out there?
-Stop talking, okay? Enough! -Stop making a fuss!
Hurry and come help me!
Who can help me?
What should I do?
Who are you?
We are Mohist disciples.
Who are you? How come I've never seen you before?
I am guarding this forbidden grounds on Mohist orders!
I'm always inside the forbidden grounds, of course you've never seen me!
I didn't think that I sneaked out to take care of some personal matters,
and then something so big happened to Mechanism City! The doors closed, and I cannot go back in!
If I can't get in, it'll be too late!
Get up first, then we'll talk.
Just what do you need to do?
I...I have to hurry and return to the center of the forbidden grounds!
Because at the center of the forbidden zone, there is a Xuan Wu Sluice.
After opening the Xuan Wu Sluice,
Only then can the water in Mechanism City be changed,
and the poisonous water can flow out!
Only then can the people in Mechanism City be saved!
How come I've never heard about that?
This is a Mohist secret!
How could you children know?
Do you know how to get to the Xuan Wu Sluice?
You have to go through this mechanism into the forbidden grounds.
But this door...I don' t know how to open it!
We know!
-You know? -Yes!
This is great!
Look, I am so old, and my hand is handicapped.
-If you could... -No problem! We'll go in for you!
Tian Ming!
-What is it? -This is a huge matter! You definitely cannot be rash!
I think this person's identity is strange. We should ask Ban Dashi first.
Yue Er, this Mechanism City is such a fortress. It's too hard for outsiders to get in here.
Since he's here, he's definitely of the Mohist family!
But Black Jade Unicorn was able to sneak in!
Black Jade Unicorn?
You think he's Black Jade Unicorn?
Then I'll go give it a try.
Elder, I must disrespect you!
What are you disrespecting?
What are you doing? What are you doing?
Yue Er, look! This is real, not fake!
-You brat! -I'm sorry!
Yue Er, look! He's not Black Jade Unicorn.
-But... -Yue Er.
No matter what, we should go into this forbidden grounds.
-What if we can save the entire city? -That's right!
Then we don't have to rush! We can go back first-
Yue Er, how can we not rush? How long can Sister Rong's medicine last?
If the medicine fades and the poison still hasn't been cured, then what?
What's wrong with reporting back once? Is it heroic to insist on going in?
I-!
Yes, I admit that I have ulterior motives.
But it's just for everyone's sake!
If we can really save everyone, so what if I want to try being a hero once?
Well said! Young people become heroes!
-You all-! -Yue Er,
Listen to us once, okay? We listened to you in the past.
Okay then. But you must promise me,
if anything seems wrong, you must immediately turn back.
-Okay! No problem! -No problem!
Okay! Let's go!
Elder, we're going first!
Be careful!
-Be careful of the mechanisms! -Don't worry!
Let's go!
I really feel like there's something off about that old man.
He has a mechanical hand too.
So what? Maybe Ban Dashi made it for him!
But just now, his clothes were wet!
Yue Er, look! This entire Mechanism City has water in it. It's not strange if some gets on your clothes.
But...
Yue Er, you can't be afraid?
Don't worry. Even if something really does happen, I'm here!
If we want to save Mechanism City, this is our only chance.
We definitely cannot miss it.
Why are you so not normal today?
I must definitely show all of you!
Hurry and come over here!
What is this?
Tiger Leap?
If you fell down like that, you'd definitely look like a leper!
What are you doing?
Tian Ming!
You can pull this! Look!
It's quite stuck!
Hero Tian Ming, you are quite strong!
Move aside!
Yue Er, let me tell you! That ring is nailed down! You cannot move it!
He'd be wasting his strength too.
Move aside, move aside! Go!
I got it!
If I guess it right, we can pull the rings on both side,
The stone slab will roll out and we can walk over it.
But...
But what?
You two saw just now too. If the ring is loosened, then the two slabs of rock will slowly go back to their places.
Timing is important. If anything happens, we'll fall down there!
I understand.
Leave it to me.
What? Are you afraid?
I'm not afraid. Who's afraid of this?
Look! I got over here, I'm okay!
One, two, three!
Go over there!
I'm okay.
You two go first! Go!
What is it? It's stuck? What do we do?
You go over first!
Tian Ming!
You dare to kick me?
Shao Yu!
Shao Yu, you brat!
Yue Er, jump!
Yue Er! Come!
Yue Er! Hurry and come!
Come over! Come over!
Hurry and come! Come to my embrace, Xiao Yue Er!
Yue Er! Hurry and come to my embrace!
Jump!
Come! My Xiao Yue Er!
Come, come!
Are you okay?
Move aside!
-Tian Ming! -I know! Don't kick me!
-Yue Er, let's go! -Okay!
Move aside!
Jump!
Shao Yu, hurry and come over! Pull the ring, hurry!
You two go first, hurry!
Yue Er, let's go first!
I-!
-Tian Ming! -Tian Ming!
H-hurry and pull me up!
What are your legs going weak?
You're the one whose legs are going weak! Hurry and pull me up!
What's the rush? I'll pull you up if you call me big brother!
Come! Hurry and call me!
Big brother! Hurry and pull me up, pull me up!
What? Are you afraid now? Hero Tian Ming.
Oh cut it, you. Yue Er, let's go.
Kill!
Are you okay? Let's go!
Release the arrows!
Retreat!
My lord is wise, already anticipating Mohist's intention to retreat from Mechanism City.
So you put soldiers to guard every entrance long ago.
Don't be happy too soon.
Ge Nie won't give up just like that.
Everyone has worked hard.
After another half hour, move to the next position!
-Okay! -Everyone split up to prepare!
Give my orders. Keep a good eye on every exit to Mechanism City.
Not even one can escape.
Monkey Flight.
Tian Ming you're so handsome!
Tian Ming you're the best!
Shao Yu, let me tell you. To pass this, you cannot use just brute strength.
Yue Er, for this you have to be light and flexible.
Light and flexible points to someone like me.
Watch!
Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry.
Tian Ming, be careful!
Look at me! It's okay!
Look! I'm perfectly fine!
It's too simple! I'm telling you, once I get over there and open the mechanism, I can bring you both over!
There must be a mechanism over there!
My thing!
Tian Ming!
Save me! Save me!
Tian Ming! Tian Ming, are you okay?
I'm okay! I'm just a bit sore down there!
Tian Ming, I've thought of something! Hurry and come back!
I got it!
-Tian Ming, are you okay? -I'm okay.
I say, why didn't you help? You're just standing there foolishly.
You're the foolish one.
Why don't you look like a hero now?
I-I'm giving you a chance to be a hero for once. Isn't that good?
Okay okay okay.
Yue Er, what method did you think of?
Shao Yu, here. Your martial arts are good, you can definitely succeed.
Tie this around your body. Tian Ming and I will hold onto you.
This way, even if you lose your grip and fall, we can pull you back up.
Wait a second! What does martial arts and getting past a mechanism have to do with each other?
You have to be light and flexible for this. I grew up in the trees, climbing a few poles is nothing to me. Let's go.
Look at me! I got up here!
Hang on! I'll be there soon!
Hurry and stop!
Save me!
What use is it to read and write? Isn't it enough to be able to write your own name?
Also that sword! Even if you're the best, you can only fight one on one!
Why should I practice?
Rotten brat, you are really crazy.
I want to have the power to face one to a thousand!
I'll let you learn how to face one to a thousand!
- Rotten brat. - Let me go. - You are really crazy.
-I'm telling you to yell! -Let go of me!
Weren't you just bragging? I can be 1 versus 10,000 a moment ago?
I also want to see if you have that ability!
Hang on!
Hurry and pull me up!
Shao Yu don't be afraid. You can do it. Believe in yourself.
You can do it!
Let's help him succeed together!
Shaoyu, how it is? Let's try again.
Okay?
Okay!
-Tian Ming! Tian Ming! -Tian Ming! Tian Ming!
I've arrived!
I'll find a way for you to come over now!
Hurry and come over!
What's wrong, Shao Yu?
I'm...still a little...
Hurry up! What are you hesitating for?
Hurry and come over!
-You're too ridiculous! -What do you care, brat?
-Let's pass the next round. -Okay okay, pass the next round.
Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!
Forward!
Kill! Kill!
Retreat!
How can I let you-
Why is this place so dark?
Just now you we're afraid of heights, now you're afraid of darkness. Have you gotten used to pretending to be weak and taking advantage of it?
Are you not afraid? This is the forbidden grounds!
If you're not careful, you wouldn't even know how you died!
Look! The Mohist ancestors were kinder.
Not like some people, who don't even know how to be grateful after being saved!
Just now, if I didn't pull the iron ring, you'd have died long ago!
Pulled the iron ring!
- Brat, are you picking a fight? - So what if I am?
Do you believe that if this wasn't the forbidden grounds I would have killed you long ago?
Let's fight now.
Do you not feel like this place is a bit different?
How so?
These paintings...the color is very fresh and full.
That's right. The writings of the previous rounds were already worn out, the paint fell off.
But...what does that mean?
I don't know either. But we can be sure about one thing.
This round was created much later than the other ones.
It looks like these color pigments were painted in the last few years.
