Get out of the way
- My brother Why do you do this- Why
We've been at odds with Ma Huzi for a long time
You saved himSo should we kill you
Hey yoFratricide among each other
How do you explain to the Chief
Explain to himThere are cliffs all over the places here
It's normal some people fall off the cliffs accidentally every year
It's no bid deal to add you two to that list
That is really a good idea
I...I...I'd like to talk to Uncle He
Uncle He Uncle He Uncle He
Thank you very much for such a good idea
Otherwise I really don't know
- how to explain it to the Chief- I'm telling you, brother
There're two of youWe have more than ten in this room
The number of people doesn't count
The two of us is enough to handle you all
How do you explain to the Chief if you kill us all
I don't need to explain to the Chief
Because...because I can die with you
Lord Shanmao Lord Shanmao Lord Shanmao I know you are a forgiving manPlease Lord Shanmao
Lord Shanmao
- Tell me, isn't it Li Erkui
- Lord Shanmao- Did He ask you to do that- Li Erkui Li Erkui asked me to do that
Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor
- Go to hell- Lord Shanmao Lord Shanmao
I will let you go
But I have to warn you
If I ever want to kill youit would be as easy as grinding out
...an antBe good
Thank you Lord Shanmao
Sorry about that, everyone
I was in a hurry when I came here
So I didn't bring any gifts for you guys
ButI do have a bag of silver ingots here
Take it and share with everyone
Take itTake it
I'm telling youYou can take it
But you can't fight over itYou know why
Because everyone has his share
Lord ShanmaoYour gifts are too expensive
I have a lot of money
If you all want to get rich
How about we play a game
Lord Shanmao decided to let you all get richHurry up and take itWhat are you waiting for
Take it Take it
ChiefThis flag...
It was the Chief's Banner belonged to the Old Commander
Decades of years have passed
Still remember when I saw it at that time
I felt there was nothing in the world that I couldn't get done
Now I am an old man and this flag is also brokenThe mentality is totally different
Is that the joining of Shanmao today
makes you think that way
He is the son of the Old Commander
This flag will be passed along to him sooner or later
So what you mean is...
It's too early to talk about that now
It'll all depend on his luck
To stand out among a pack of wolves
It's not enough to only have the ruthlessness
ChiefYou ask Li Erkui to be his lead
just so that to give him a test
Li Erkui and Ma Huzi have been at odds
He definitely will try to give him a hard time
It'll be all up to himself whether he can survive
Bet Bet
Big Big Big
Small
EveryoneStop right now
StopWhat are you doing
Didn't you see, Lord Li
They are gambling
Who allowed you to gamble
Is it not allowed to gamble in the camp
There in no rule about that
But I'm your Captain
It's allowed if I say yesIt's forbidden if I say no
You're the CaptainWe'll listen to you
Put away the money on the table
Come on Take it over here
Wait wait wait wait
Now whatYou want to disobey the order
I dare notI just want to count
exactly how much money is on the tableso I can keep a record
Keep a recordWill you dare to take it back from me
You are the CaptainHow dare I take it back from you
I just want to see
how much money is on the table after all
So if you take it all awayI can make it up to everybody
Yo hoHow dare you
bribe my people right in front of me
If they are really your people
I won't be able to bribe them
Take it all away
You And youYou guys come down the mountain with me
Go check everything aroundHurry up
WaitI didn't ask you to go
Uncle He Don't worryJust wait here
Captain is taking me to play around at the mountain top
- Follow me- Yes
Take a rest
AnshunHave some water
- Thank you- You are welcome
We're resting hereWill there be any danger
It shouldn't
Here is the outpost of the Blindman's Ridge
There shouldn't be anyone attacking us
I hope so
Not sure whether Miss Lu has returned home
Logically she should have
That will be great
- Escort Master Li- Yes
I'd like to pay a visit to the Blindman's Ridge
So would you please watch out and guard the goods overnight
OK Don't worry Lead Escort Master
BuddyI'm going with you
Not necessary Lord E'erhe
You should stay to gaurd the goods with Escort Master Li
I'll be back before dawn
Don't resume our escort until I come back
He can become the Chief
Those under him should be pretty capable too
BuddyI want to meet him
Lord E'erhePlease don't think that way, OK
In the escort businesswe rely on the extensive social network
and strong relationship with peopleActing so aggressively as you are
It won't do us any good even if you winYou still can't get the business done
OK OK OKIt's so boring you are talking about business again
Wouldn't it be easy to make things interesting
You can go up the mountain and take care of them all tonight
Wouldn't that be interesting
Hey Are you trying to irritate me
Can't you tell I'm just kidding
Lead Escort MasterSomeone wants to see you
Someone wants to see me

♫There'll be you and me♫
That's not what I meantSince you've had it ready

Thank you with all my gratitudeThank you with all my gratitude
You are an escort masterI'm really surprised
Speak in such a polite manner
I know you will laugh at me
When will we leave
Tomorrow morningI will take you to see my father

Of course it should be explained to him
But not by meBy someone else
Someone else

Lead Escort Master Liu of Guangshun Escort Service
Hello Escort Master Liu
- This way please- Let's go
Looks like Missy is having quite a relationship with Liu Anshun
Just wait and see
Sooner or later I will pull out his escort banner
and destroy his Escort Service
Lord ShanmaoAre there some grudges between you and Liu Anshun
It used to be just the usual conflicts in the underworld
But how dare he steal my girl from me
Now the animosity is enormous
So Lord Shanmao likes Missy
But Missy is quite rebellious
Not so easy to control
I would not like her if it's not for her unruliness
Good taste, right
Good taste
Dad Dad
Dad
Miss you so much, Dad
I miss you too
- I want to ride on your back, Dad- I miss you too
- OK- Take it easy Take it easy
You lost some weight and are skinnier
Lost weightI think you gained some weight
You must have experienced some hardship away from home
What hardshipMaybe I gave them some hard time

- Yes- I'm Lu Zongshan
You are so kindMy salute and greetings to you, Chief
Thank you very much for taking care of my daughter in Beijing
I will remember this favor
It's no big deal You are very welcome
I heard my daughter did a big favor to you too
and got shot by the PoliceIs that true
Dad Why are you talking about this
It all happened unexpectedly
Miss Lu lent her helping hand with her sense of justice
I'll always remember this favor and her friendship
Lead Escort Master is a open and candid man
I definitely want to make friends with youThis way please
- Let me carry you- Big Black Horse, hurry up
- Gee Gee
Tong Ha
I'm hungryDo you have anything to eat
Damn Pancake again
We've been on road for a few days
I've eaten all the pancakes for my life
Stay hungry if you don't want to eat it
It's still better to than having nothing to eat
Really miss those fine dishes in Beijing
You know If I was able to sell that snuff bottle successfully
How many fine dishes will we be able to eat
What do you think
Will Liu Anshun be enjoying eating and drinking up there
Those bandits are serious about treating their guestsThere must be quite a banquet
It's really not nice of him to do that
Why doesn't he ask someone to send us something to eat
Attention, everyoneBe ready to guard the goods
Those who come are surely ill-intentionedIll-intentioned
Is Liu Anshun sending us the food
- They are serious- Call out the Escort Chant
Hewu
Shoot
How did Escort Master Liu know I'm from Anhui
Why did you ask this question, Chief
The presents you brought me are all authentic native products from Anhui
And all are my favorites too
Dad, this is the so-called destiny
You seeYou and Lead Escort Master Liu have never met before
But his presents to you are all to your taste
What could it be if it's not the destiny
It's all because of youYou played the tricks in it
Why does it have anything to do with me
My presents to you are much more expensive than these
You are not supposed to say that
Lead Escort Master Liu come to visit me
The respect he showed can't be treated lightly
Lead Escort Master LiuLet me make a toast
You are too kind, ChiefI should be the one making a toast to you
Just a minuteLook at you two
The Chief The Lead Escort MasterThat's how you call each other
Sound like strangers, which is not good
Yes yes yesLead Escort Master Liu
Lead Escort Master Liu again
I'm older than you are
Guess you won't be mad if I call you little brother Liu
Of course notThat's how it should be
ChiefI'll be passing by your territory later on
I'd appreciate all your help
Chief again
Brother Liu is really candidCheers
ChiefThere's a shootout down the mountain
Again, another group
You shot one down
Good marksmanshipGood marksmanship
It doesn't seem to be one I was shooting at
So it was just out of sheer luck
Let's pull out
Look They are fleeing
What happenedHow come they are fleeing
Your marksmanship is so greatThey are all scared away
- Really- Yeah
- Really- I think so too
Chief Chief
Captain Li was killed by someone in the escort team
Why did you open fire
We didn't open the fireIt was Ma Huzi
Ma Huzi is backWhere is he
Ma Huzi ran away
Captain Li led us to chase him
But he was killed by someone in the escort group
Why did Mz Huzi open fire to the escort group
Ma Huzi had been expelled out of the Blindman's Ridge by me
Where are they running to
To the EastThey are all riding some speedy horses
He'd better run out of the Shanhai Passand never let me catch him
Dare to come back and protest to me
ChiefCaptain Li was killed by someone of the Escort Service
How should we get this settled
It's you bastard again
How dare you act so unruly at the Blindman's Ridge
I'll kill you
What are you doingPut the gun down
Dad It was this bastard who insulted and humiliated me repeatedly in Beijing
I must kill him
and chop him into eight pieces
Is that true
- Ask Lead Escort Master Liu- No need to ask him
I admit whatever Missy said
You have no other choice but to admit
ChiefI fell in love with Missy at the first sight
Although there were some misunderstandings at that time
It's fortunate that she is not violated so far
How dare you still keep trash talkingI'll kill you right now
DadHe took advantage of meHow could you defend him
He's joined us If you want to punish him
you have to open the Gathering Hall
Let's take care of the external affairs first right now
- Dad- Be good
Brother LiuAlthough Captain Li was killed accidentally
He was my brother anyhowI need an answer
DadYou should go after Ma Hizi if you want to avenge
Why are you giving Liu Anshun a hard time
Be quite Be quite
Now this is the problem between the Blindman's Ridgeand Guanshun Escort Service
You are right, Chief
I'm going over there to get more informationand will be back to talk to you
Good good
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by We,The Protectors Team@Viki
Lead Escort Master
- Lead Escort Master- Anyone got injured
Only a horse was woundedEverybody is fine
What happened just then
They were rushing and firing at us
They did not keep their words at all
Sneak attack to us while you were visiting them
- It was a mistake- Mistake
Fires were opened by both sidesHow could it only be a mistake
Those who fired at us
are the outlaws of the Blindman's Ridge
But the problem is one of their Captain is dead
He's dead already So what
Even if it was a mistake
they are the ones who provoked it
It has nothing to do with us
Yeah You can say it that way
But if we can't solve this problem
I'm afraid it will be very hard for us to pass by the Blindman's Ridge in the future
Under the reign of the Imperial Qing
How could there be such unreasonable people
Are they still abided by the laws
They are the bandits
The laws are exactly what they are againstWhat you said are all nonsense
So what should we do
Lead Escort MasterWe can fight with everything we have if there's no other solution
You should keep calm
The best solution is to force the enemy to surrender without a fight
Do you have any idea
I...
Hey hey heyIt's winter now
Why are you keep fanning
Don't you feel coldSay it What should we do
- Yes- Yes
What do you think
Can we go...go back to the travel lodge and then talk about it
Yeah right
How about thisLet me go talk to them again
You guys just wait here
Brother Be careful
Wait for me
Dad He is coming
ChiefIt all happened all of sudden
My folks wasn't able to distinguish between the enemies and the friends
and shot Captain Li by mistake
I just want an answer
If you insist on getting an answer, Chief
Please set up the rules
I accept the challenge
- Dad...- It's said Lead Escort Master Liu is extraordinarily courageous
and often bet your life with people on the Enclosed Carriage
I'd like to play with youWhat do you think
Who the hell are youThere's no place for you to speak here
Lead Escort Master Liu
As long as you can win him
You can travel around the Blindman's Ridge freelyNo doubt about that
DadHow can you listen to that bastard
All rightI accept
I'd say there's really destiny between us, Liu Anshun
We'll run into each other no matter where we go
There's one thing I want to ask you
Who took you away the other day
Took me awayDidn't you know
That was really strange then
Was that my Head Master
Looks like the relationship between you two are just so so
But it's understandable
It was him who dismissed you from his Escort Service
Come one Come on So thrillingCome on Come on
- Come on- You haven't answer my question yet
Do you really want to know
Then just get out of here
Dad We lost
Let's stay here tonight

You would not have won

Hey You sound really tough
Just wait and see whether you can actually do it
Let's take the time
Between the two of usWho do you think will be short-lived
I don't know fortune tellingI only know that
once you get up to the Blindman's Ridge
it's very hard to get off alive
You must... keep your words
