Episode 17
All this time, you've only cared about practicing your sword style, whether you know it, whether you're familiar with it.
Every day other than practicing your sword you are still practicing your sword
Also, as a man supporting me,
can you think of a method to bring us out of this place?
This mountain
We already look over it 7-8 times
If there was an opening we would have already founded it
I think you are purposely not finding it to trap me in here forever
This way I will have to accompany you every day and practice your sword skills
no really
When you say it like that, you're making it difficult for me to respond.
That expert who left the sword styles on the rock wall is also to blame!
At the time, why couldn't he also leave some flying or wall-running skills for you to learn?
If you learn it you can fly out of this place and we can leave
Only learning those sword styles is also useless.
Qing yi you just told
me one of my suspicions
How did that expert came here
and how did he left
maybe he had a skill that allow him to fly
This high wall, to think of flying over it,
it's impossible
Even if he is able to fly
he is unlikely to make such a large effort
to fly down, carve the sword styles, and fly away again.
Zi Long
Have you consider the fact that
the expert is still here
If he was he would have die a long time ago
If he die he would at least left a corpse
But we have already search this place thoroughly
we have not find any corpse
you mean that he could still be alive
and he is nearby
Didn't we felt someone watching
us countless times
If it was like that why is he not showing himself
I don't know that
When did a white horse appear
I saw this horse twice
in here?
no I saw it in a forest outside
outside?
Then how did it manage to get in here
You are right
If he can enter
then that means there's a way out
Is just that we didn't find it yet
Let go look for it
Zi Long
Don't be afraid This is my friend
This horse is able to communicate with humans
Perhaps it specially came to find me.
horsey
We are best friends right?
Did you come here specially to get me out of here?
Get up there
For now on you are mines
Zi long you are amazing
Horsey It's time
to bring us out of here
let's go
♫ A cup of bitter wineSwallowing the unspoken sorrows of parting♫
Please don't ask me, who you live for.
♫The night is still darkWars that have stoppedHow long can the peace last♫
♫ Undying loyaltyDare to use their lives as farewell♫
♫Putting on battle armourAnd battling with an army of thousands♫
♫Dying the land redIn order to bring peace to the world♫
♫Don't want to fight with anyoneDon't like lying and cheating to others♫
♫Real heroes are filled with dare♫
♫A hero doesn't leave regrets♫
So it was here
You recognize this place
I came here before
This lake is call night moon lake
We are outside the county, 20 li southwest.
This lake and the mountains surrounding us,
I remember them.
What you mean is that we've already left the Valley of Death?
Qing Yi, I understand already. This Valley of Death
is surrounded on all four sides by steep cliffs.
It looks like it's cut off from the outside world,
but the bottom of the valley is connected to the river.
Just now, the cavern the white horse brought us to
was where it joined the lake.
No wonder the Valley of Death became a danger spot.
Who would have thought the exit was under water
We are already lucky to get ouf it alive.
if it was not for the horse's help
we would not find it even till death
you are right
Good horsey(=.= it was not supposed to sound so childish)
Thank you so much
You me and zi long's savior
No savior horse
I really didn't imagine that after falling into the Valley of Death,
we would be able to survive against the odds.
It's just as you said: as long as you don't give up, there is always a way, right?
What's wrong? Since we're returning to human society,
is there something you want to say to me?
Qing Yi, I want to say
that being able to live together with you in this world
really makes me feel fortunate.
Okay let's go home
I don't want to go home so early
I want to stay here with you for a bit
to tell you the truth
I don't want to let you go
but we should really go home now.
let's go
Let's go
Go!
Miss it really is you! You didn't die
Of course I didn't die am I am alive and kicking
miss The month you were not here i had to suffer
I was afraid Old master would punish me
and I was often blamed by Gao Ze.
OK I know everyone had it tough
Don't mention it. The hardship I suffered this few days
I don't don't eve know who to find it complain to
In a few days I follow you
to meet my father
Miss where are you going to go again
where? Return to the place where I was living previously
No definitely not
If you really insist on stay at Zheng Ding for a few day I won't force you
but you have to stay at the county office.
Usually I protect you
If you disappear again, I'll need more than three heads to be executed.
What? You still intend to monitor me so closely?
I live fairly well there,
there's no reason for me to live at the county office.
Hurry and get out of my way, otherwise don't blame me for getting angry!
Young Miss, the fact that you returned safely is already Heaven's blessing.
This time, even if you hate me to the core,
I won't let you roam around on your own.
Geng Chun,
when I try to negotiate nicely, why won't you listen?
I absolutely want to go. What can you do?
Young Miss, then please excuse me.
Men! Surround the Young Miss!
General Miss, if there's an issue, can't we discuss it?
This is a Xiahou family issue.Who are you as an outsider to interfere?
You count for nothing!
I'm your family's...
a friend of your Young Miss.
So what if I'm concerned?
In the world, there are only two people who can be concerned about Young Miss.
One, our master of the house. Two, her fiance Gao Ze.
Even if you went through a few days of hardship together, so what?
You're not even worthy!
Alright, I don't quarrel with inferiors like you.
Today, I will not let Young Miss leave on her own!
Geng Chun!
Young Miss, try to understand our position,
don't put us in a difficult place.
Well, okay, I won't put you in a difficult place.
How about this? We'll stroll around the county town first.
I'll go to the county office in a while. How's that?
Miss if you want to take a walk in the city You may
I won't block you
However
I will have to stay by your side to protect you
I can't let you get into any more trouble!
Geng Chun, I've already given in,
You're
Today I absolutely will not leave with you.
Men, send Young Miss back to the county office!
Hold it!
General Gao, you've come at the right time!We can keep watch on Young Miss together.
Zi Long, the soldiers said they saw you.
I almost didn't trust my own ears.
I'm delighted to see that you have both safely returned!
Thank you for your concern, Brother Gao.
Qing Yi, don't be too stubborn.
If you want to stay in Zhending County for a few days, that's fine.
I can help you speak to Uncle Xiahou,
but you've left home for such a long time.
Uncle Xiahou misses you like crazy.
The past few days, when I met him in Luoyang,
he sighed at the mere mention of you.
I know you initially left home
because you were afraid Uncle Xiahou would force to you to get married,
but you can relax.After all, I'm also involved.
I promise you,
I will never force you into anything.
Gao Ze, how can you be so good?
Anyone knows that the stolen fruit is not sweet.
I, Gao Ze, am also someone who has studied.
Why would I force others to do something?
Alright then. Gao Ze, due to your words,
I'll go to stay at the county office in a while.
In a few days, I will go home to visit Father.
But now, don't stop me or follow me.
I still want to stay here quietly for a while.
General Don't listen to her
If she runs away I will be doomed
Okay, there's no need to say more.
I promise Qing yi will return
trust me
Zi Long protect qing yi
Okay, you two can leave then.
Let's go.
We're almost back to where we stayed.
You hurried the whole way, you wouldn't even rest for a single step.
Speak, what idea do you have in your heart?
I know,
this whole month, you must be sick of staying with me,
so you want to hurry and chase me away, and be free, isn't that right?
Of course not
But I can't see a single sign of reluctance on your face.
Qing Yi you misunderstood me
if it's a misunderstanding
then let's turn around and return to the Valley of Death right now.
We'll really live like an immortal couple in another world.
This...this...
I'm just teasing you!
It wasn't easy for you and I to return.
No matter what I say, I have to let you go.
After all, no matter how in love a couple is, they can't be together day and night.
It's very difficult for a person to live on his own, away from other people.
Parents, siblings and friends will always be worries,
so how can they be free on their own?
Qing Yi, why do you have such regrets?
Actually, I decided long ago
that no matter where I am,
in the chaos of mortal life, no matter what,
I always want to be with you, till we grow old together.
Hearing a blockhead like you say something like this, I have tears in my eyes from laughing.
Okay, treat me as a blockhead then.
Do you want to greet Yan Cheng and Qing Er?
I look like a beggar right now.
Qing Er and Fei Yan will tease me all day.
After I clean up, I'll come over.
Zi Long what's wrong?
Nothing's wrong. Qing Yi,
I won't accompany you back to the county office then.
Hurry and go in then, so Liu Shen and the others can have peace of mind.
That's right, what about the white horse?
Should I raise it at the county office?
Originally, it lived in the forest,
so never mind.
I understand. I'll leave first then.
When will we meet again?
Anytime, it's up to you.
- Let's go.- Go on!
Good horse, thank you.
Thank you for saving us,
and thank you for helping us so much along the way.
Did you know?
I really want to keep you,
but Zi Long said
that you have your own home in the forest.
I can only let you go
Stay safe.
Miss
miss you finally came back
Am I dreaming
Where did you go?
It suddenly seems like a dream,
but you silly girl, I'm really back.
I'm really standing in front of you.
Miss you went over board this time
this prank was too serious
I was so anxious I wanted to die.
sorry I promise
you if i ever fall into cave
i will drag you along with me
Young Miss, you want to disappear again? That won't do.
That's right, I'll go and boil water. You go in first,
and then you can hurry and take a bath.
Hurry and go in.
How was it? What did you find out?
The defense at the western part of the city is more relaxed.
Twelve guards at the city gates, two at the watch house.
- The time they change shifts is...- Wait a moment!
Wait who's there
Who is eavesdropping on the business of our sect?
Get out
Go!
Who is it? come out
Brother Zhao it's me
Gou Dan?
It's really you you really didn't die
That I can live till this day is because of you.
But how is this possible?
You fell into the Valley of Death, I though you...
Don't speak of this anymore.
What are the movements of those mountain thieves?
Are they planning
to do something harmful to Zhending County?
You don't know that since you and Princess Qing Yi escaped,
Du Jue was furious and swore to destroy Zhending.
This whole month, he stayed in the lair plotting every day.
He clearly sent many spies into the city to scout it out.
Then do you know
when Du Jue wants to send out his soldiers?
I don't know, but it should be within these few days.
Looking at the current strength of Zhending County's army,
it will be difficult to defend against another sneak attack.
I must return immediately to inform the officials so they can raise the defenses.
Gou Dan, you've helped me numerous times.
I'm afraid the thieves might be suspicious.
Perhaps you shouldn't go back.
I know Brother Zhao is kind-hearted,
but this isn't the time yet.

Brother, why did you come back so late?
Zi Long, Zi Long!
You didn't die! Let me see if it's really you!
- Of course it's me.- We all thought you were dead, Zi Long.
- Zi Long, Zi Long.- Yan Cheng.
Do you know how we've lived these past months?
You've caused us to be miserable.
Everyone thought...
Look, nothing is wrong with me, I'm fine.
It's good you're back and you're not hurt.
- It good you've returned. - Don't worry.
In future, the three of us, won't separate again.
Qing Yi, are you really okay?
Do you feel unwell anywhere?
How about I call a doctor to check you over?
There's no need, I'm really fine.
Although this month I was trapped in the bottom of the valley.
To be cut off from the rest of the world, living a wild existence.
But lucky I had Zi Long who took care of me. You don't have to worry.
Miss, I shouldn't be saying this,
but if the Old Master forces me to answer,
then I'll know how to answer him.
Ask then.
Old Master will ask me,
a single girl and single man coexisted for a month.
Zhao Zi Long, that rascal, did he treat you honestly and decently?
I knew you'd ask me about this.
Zi Long is a honest, tolerant and simple person.
He would definitely do his utmost to take care of Qing Yi.
He wouldn't have any actions that'll oversteps the boundaries.
Right?
Zhao Zi Long is exactly a virtue man, he abides by the rules.
you ought to admire him.
Okay, I'm a bit tired, I'm going back to rest.
Okay, quickly go.
Miss,
When are we returning to see Old Master?
Old Master misses you and anxiously waiting.
I've already sent someone on a fast horse to send news.
Geng Chun, didn't I already promised that I'll go back.
Why are you forcing at every stage.
Can you not rush me for a few days.
Qing Yi, just relax and live here.
Uncle Xiahou won't force you again.
Because I've already stopped the messenger.
General Gao, why are you like this?
Gao Ze, why are you treating me so good?
I'm so touched that I don't know how to handle it.
For the moment, let's not speak about marriage.
Just simply say, when we were young, we played together and grew up together.
we're close intimate close childhood friends.
If each day you are happy, I will naturally be happy.
If each day, you're face is long and frowning.
Could I
still be happy to go on.
Right now, I'm your fiance by name.
If I don't say anything, other people won't dare to gossip.
Qing Yi, as you wish,
Relax, be daring and do what you want.
I understand.
You're indeed my good childhood friend and partner.
My Lord, for a woman, has become like this.
Is truly without parallel in history (unprecedented).
Of course.
A sweet and virtuous woman is a good match for a noble man.
Qing Yi, I will not oppose to your relationship with Zi Long.
But I won't give up on chasing you.
I'm willing to compete with Zi Long.
See who will in the end win your heart.
I have the confidence and patience
to wait for you to return to me.
Eat a bit more.
You don't need to be anxious to report that you're safe and sound.
Perhaps they haven't returned.
Could it be, Uncle Teacher, he's gone back to his hometown again,
search for Yi Bai Zhan's whereabouts.
No that.
During this time, there's no news of you,
Uncle Teacher, he happily used alcohol to dispel his worries.
You should know, he has devoted a lifetime of care
to you.
Once this news was known,
we can surely understand his feelings,
so Brother Zhou and Fei Yan,
seeing Master felt stifled and panicked, accompanied him out to relax.
Zi Long, in the future, you have to stay safe.
See what happened this time. Even though you only disappeared for a month,
but everyone was so anxious!
Think about what would happen if something happened to you,
how would we continue living?
Drink some soup.
Young Miss, this is the third time you've sighed.
In my memory,
you've never been so melancholy.
Shi Yan, there's something you don't know.
I...
Is it because of Zhao Zi Long?
Young Miss! I grew up with you from a young age,
every happiness and sorrow of yours,
every furrow of your brows and pout of your lips,
I understand all their meanings.
Just now, when Geng Chun asked about
what happened to you and Zhao Zi Long in the valley,
I saw you blush and lower your head.
You were definitely hiding something in your reply.
Young Miss! Previously, every time there was a load on your mind, it was always Shi Yan who shared the burden with you.
You're so unhappy,
can it be that you and Zhao Zi Long have already...
I have fallen in love with Zhao Zi Long.
Actually, this is something I've guessed.
Perhaps this is fate.
Young Miss and Mr. Zhao have much in common, I'm very happy.
Furthermore, Mr. Zhao's morals and actions all match with Young Miss'.
But the situation has progressed to this point,
how should you reply Zao Ze and your father, Young Miss?
Until now, I haven't decided how to handle my father.
That's why I'm sighing.
Zi Long, what on earth should I do?
Since it's a misunderstanding,
that's good. Let's turn around right now and return to the Valley of Death,
and truly live like an immortal couple in another world.
This...
I'm just teasing you!
After all, no matter how in love a couple, they cannot spend day and night together.
It's very difficult for someone to live on his own, away from other people.
Parents, siblings and friends will all be worries,
so how can he be free on his own?
Actually I decided long ago
that no matter where
in this chaotic mortal realm, no matter what,
I want to be together with you, till we grow old together.
Wherever Zi Long goes, Qi Yi will follow.

Calling you over here so early in the morning
is because I was worried there might be spies of the thieves among the officials.
There's movement on the part of the mountain thieves again?
On the way back to the city, I met a spy from the city.
I also know that soon,
they will carry out a large-scale military operation to attack the city.
What?
Are you sure? Is the news reliable?
There is definitively no mistake.
Previously, when we fought against them,
their troops greatly surpassed my imagination.
I originally expected they wouldn't have more than a thousand troops and horses,
but actually, they have at least two or three thousand.
Even with the entire military force in the city,
we will have no way to match the mountain thieves.
You are right,
the mountain thieves are both numerous and cunning.
Sir Gao, then should you
send for help from the Changshan senior official?
Ever since our previous failure to defeat Tiger Tooth Mountain,
I've already sent for troops from Xiahou Jie,
hoping he would send some soldiers over to defeat Tiger Tooth Mountain.
- But...- What is it?
Zi Long, you're not a stranger. I will reveal some military issues to you.
After Prince Lian Lao sent armed forces to suppress Dong Zhuo, but failed.
These princes have been swiftly increasing their power and territories.
Youzhou's* Governor Gongsun Zan and the Bohai Sea's Governor Yuan Shao,(*ancient province in north Heibei and Liaoning)
both have casted greedy eyes on the Jizhou county.
Both of them are about to strike at Mu Han Fu of Jizhou county.
This group of princes has selfish intentions,
they are helpless against Dong Zhuo.
Yes.
Changshan senior official Xiahou Jie is caught in the middle,
he's between a rock and a hard place.
If there's one careless move, it could mean disaster,
which means that Xiahou Jie doesn't dare to move his troops right now.
He's afraid that if he moves his armies at all,
it will leave Changshan vulnerable to attack from the princes.
So Zhending County
cannot count on Xiahou Jie anymore.
How we deal with the mountain thieves,
that's up to us to come up with a plan.
Only relying on the strength of the officials,
that won't be enough by far.
What if we ask the citizens for help
and get them to help us together?
You want to consolidate the strength of the citizens?
But that's a double-edged sword.
If it's not controlled properly and they revolt against us,
then won't we be...
In order to deal with them, I have a method.
Let me think about it.
Subbed and Timed by the Chinese Hero Zhao Zi Long Team @ Viki.Please do not reuse or reupload our subtitles.
Big Brother,
The men we sent out are all dead.
What? All dead?
The spies we sent out were discovered,
and all did in the forest.
That's abominable!
Can it be that our plan to attack the city
has already been leaked?
Big Brother, so what should we do now?
It seems
we have to move faster, send our troops out earlier.
Second Brother,
are the troops and food supplies ready?
Preparations are ongoing, they should be ready very soon.
I'm afraid we don't have any other good ideas now.
Alright, I agree to consolidate the strength of the people.
Good!
But if we consolidate the strength of the people,
it's a double-edged sword.
After all, I command the county, and I don't have much leeway for action.
How about this? Zi Long,
you'll have to take charge of this situation.
Me?
Zi Long, I believe in your abilities.
Besides, you're originally a citizen of Zhending County.
When it comes to life or death for the people, you are bound by duty.
Zi Long will definitely not disappoint you.
Young Miss, it's time to wake up!
The weather is good today,
you shouldn't laze around in bed.
Young Miss,
hurry and wake up.
Young Miss!
Young Miss?
Young Miss.
Where did she go?
Young Miss, Young Miss!
- Did you see my family's Young Miss?- No.
Shi Yan, what are you crying about?
Young Miss, she...she's disappeared again.
What? Disappeared again?
♫Going back to chaotic times♫
♫How to lament this air of danger♫
Wherever Zi Long goes, Qing Yi will follow.♫To be forced to leave to distant landsLike a wisp of smoke♫
♫Following the wind and being blown to distant places♫
♫Enduring the throbbing of wounds♫
♫Suddenly looking back, past memories are rolling over♫
♫Heroes will get lonely tooAre they hard to phantom♫
♫Or do they not want to disillusion themselves♫
♫Continue to roam with meAnd bravely travel further and further♫
♫The joys and sorrows of reunions and partingsHow can you make the difference between them?♫
♫Who can achieve their duties to both their loyalty and their love?♫
Zi Long, did you know,♫Love and hate will slowly get further and further away♫
for now, I have to go home already.
All I can do is be separated from you during this period of time.
Fellow countrymen! Fellow countrymen!
Listen to me briefly.
Fellow countrymen, our Changshan
is about to face a very severe test.
The mountain thieves of Tiger Tooth Mountain are currently plotting an invasion.
They are currently planning a huge plot, but currently our military force here is weak.
If we just rely on the officials, I'm afraid we may not be able to defend against the mountain thieves.
As citizens of Changshan, we have to work together,
and defend our hometown together!
How do we defend our hometown?
You can join my troops
and defend against our enemies together. Those with aspirations,
please sign your names in this book.
Why should we believe you?
We don't even know if you're speaking the truth.
You all still don't believe me?
Everything I've said is the truth!
In the end, this is, this is the authorities' problem.
What does this have to do with us citizens?
- Right?- Exactly, that's right!
As citizens of this country, shouldn't we contribute some effort?
Let's go, let's go.
Fellow countrymen, listen to me!
Fellow countrymen!
Let's go, let's go. I'm going home.
