THE FOUR - (Shao Nian Si Da Ming Bu)
Episode 8
-Sir! -Just stay there.
You'll know why later.
Don't come over here! Don't come over here!
Go away! Don't come over here! Don't come over here!
Sit over there!
I don't mean any harm to you.
If you let me go, then I'll bring something for you to eat.
There is meat and rice!
That's right.
Sit down.
Good.
Looks like my guess is correct.
Sir Zhuge, did you purposely put me in there with those wolves?
I just wanted to see
whether you can speak to the wolves or not.
So what if I didn't know how to speak to them,
wouldn't I bitten to death by them?
Rest assured. With I presence, they won't harm you.
Sir Zhuge, I really don't understand.
Why would you do that?
I just wanted to test your abilities to read the minds.
Read the minds?
Yes. If you really know how to read the minds,
then my guess is correct.
Oh, how would I know how to read the minds?
But, ever since I was little, I could speak with flying and walking wild animals.
But sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Li Mo, follow me.
Do you recognize her?
Mother?
She's my mother.
Junior sister Bian,
I never thought that after parting that year,
we'll never see each other again.
But today I'm able to meet your daughter, Li Mo.
Can it be this be fate?
Sir, you just called my mother, 'junior sister',
then that means you're my senior uncle?
Li Mo, the jade ornament in your hands
was your mother's keepsake that she kept by her side.
I would've never thought
that this separation would more than twenty plus years.
Senior uncle, when I was three years old,
mother disappeared mysteriously. She left and never returned.
For 16 years, I have never once stopped thinking about my mother.
Do you know where my mother went?
I've longed for her for so long.
I don't know where junior sister Bian is either.
Li Mo, before your mother left, other than this jade ornament,
did she gave you anything else?
My mother taught me a two line poem.
She told me that I must remember it.
Which two?
The grass on the side of the path departed. Will an old friend come back?
I've never heard of those two verses.
Senior uncle, since you were my mom's senior brother you must understand her very well, right?
Do you know where she went? Can you tell me anything about her whereabouts?
Or anything regarding her? I want to know everything about her.
Twenty years ago,
Junior sister Bian traveled alone to the Central plains from the Western territories.
Became the student of the legend hero, Wei Qing Qing.
Since she has special skills,
so she followed teacher's order
to join the Divine Deputy Bureau to assist me.
Junior sister Bian was super smart and resolved many cases.
She received lots of love from the people.
So people back then called her the number one female deputy.
So my mom stayed at Divine Deputy Bureau before too.
And she was a famous female deputy!
But I don't know why
she resigned suddenly,
and retired from Jiang Hu to live a common life.
But 16 years ago, I received a letter,
and an item. I remember the letter said,
she needed to head back to the Western territories to take care of an important matter.
But she didn't state any specific details.
She just told me to keep an item for her.
What is it that is so important?
It a book about mind reading.
It's title is the "Methods of Mind Reading".
Methods of Mind Reading?
Your mom used her incredible mind reading ability back then
to resolve many cases and build her reputation.
Li Mo, since you can talk with the wolves,
its enough to prove that you can communicate with the animals.
And you can read the minds of others.
It is the death penalty for the escaped Lady in Waiting.
Now she has come to rely on me?
If the government finds out that I hid away a Lady in Waiting, I'll be beheaded.
Then I am dead!
What? Why is there a girl?
She ate everything and didn't leave anything for us to eat.
Whether she is mean or nice,
we don't know.
Let's just quickly go through the hole.
This hole can lead to the small alley on the back street.
Let's go find some food to eat. Let's go.
Don't come any closer to me. Don't come any closer to me.
I want to get close to you because you're so pretty.
Now that I think about it,
sometimes it works and doesn't.
But, it seems to happen every time when I'm in danger,
was I able read the other person's mind.
That's right. You only received her mind reading ability.
But you do not know the incantations and methods.
So only when you are in danger
did your abilities to read minds come out.
She not only did not want me to talk to those animals but also prevented me to communicate with birds.
Otherwise, she would not have let that leiothrix bird flew away.
I thought...
Thought what?
I originally wanted to pass the "Methods of Mind Reading" to you.
To let you focus on practicing it.
Maybe you can communicate with your mom via mind reading.
Then may be you can find her.
That's right!
If I learn the arts of mind reading and my mother knows it too,
then we can communicate and I will naturally know where she is!
No, but your mother doesn't want you to learn it.
I think...
No, no, no. Even though it's against my mother's wishes to learn the arts of mind reading,
but as long as I learn the arts of mind reading, then I can find out where my mom is.
Even if I become a unfilial daughter, I still want to learn the arts of mind reading!
Senior uncle know that you actually have lots of filial piety.
Senior uncle..
Since you and my mom had the same teacher,
can you just let me learn?
I beg you, senior uncle. I beg you. I beg you.
This is the Methods of Mind Reading .
Thank you senior uncle!
Read it well when you go back.
I will test you on your progress three days later.
Senior uncle, do you think my mom is still alive?
I have a feeling that your mother have not died.
She might have gotten into some trouble,
and can't get away from it yet.
Li Mo, if you still want to see your mother,
then you must wholeheartedly study learn the arts of mind reading. It may really be able to help you find your mother.
Yes. I will listen to senior uncle's advise.
I will definitely study diligently. I will not let you down.
But you have to remember.
Don't tell anyone anything I told you today.
And don't let anyone know about our relationship.
You should still to call me Sir Zhuge in front of others.
Sir Zhuge, Li Mo will keep that in mind.
Forget outside material can clear your mind.
Forget love can...
Chu Li Mo! I have been looking for you all day! Where have you been?
I didn't go anywhere.
Didn't go anywhere? Don't think you don't have to leave if you hide?
-Leave! -But I...
But what? Don't tell me that you also want the work money?
Everything has been a mess ever since you arrived.
Every one of them is all worried and panicked.
If all the maids learn from you, then won't I...
I won't say anymore! Leave!
But, Sir Zhuge said..
What about Sir Zhuge? You are not thinking of using Sir Zhuge to put pressure me, are you?
I will tell Sir that you can't take the hardship and disappeared on your own.
Stinky girl! Flirting slut. Those are all you have learned.
S...Sir.
Sir Zhuge.
Didn't I tell you to not give her anymore trouble?
Yes, Chun Ping understands.
Li Mo.
Sir Zhuge.
Normally, how has Chun Ping treated you?
Normally, Chun Ping
treated me well.
Chun Ping. From now you, you have to treat her even better? Do you understand?
Yes, Sir.
Li Mo, stay and live well in the Divine Deputy Bureau.
Yes! Thank you Sir Zhuge.
Have a nice day, my Sir.
Oh, luckily you know how to control your mouth.
Understand things and know what to say.
Chun Ping.
I just want to live in harmony and respect.
Leave your belongings and leave yourself as well!
How come it looks like Sir Zhuge really likes her?
That's right.
Sir Zhuge doesn't usually get involved in these menial things. Why did he speak for her?
-That's right. -What's going on? -How come it's like that?
Do you think Li Mo seduced the Sir Zhuge too?
Seduce? No way!
[Methods of Mind Reading]
Mr. Heartless.
What are you looking at?
Look. When the rain drops hit the tree leaves,
isn't it beautiful?
Why is it any different from normal?
Sun Bird!
Sun Bird?
Sun Birds are my favorite type of birds.
They are loyal to love.
Once they find the partner, they will love each other and stay together.
If one dies,
then the other will die as well.
I've never seen such a bird.
Give me your hand.
Hand?
Let me show you how to observe. You calm your heart.
Look. See if you can calm down.
Leaning against such handsome Mr. Heartless,
who can calm down her heart? My heart is beating so fast! So fast!
Why is it so hard for me to breathe?
Li Mo, why is your heart beating so fast?
It's probably because we're too close.
I'm saying the bird.

Divine Deputy Bureau was set up directly by the Emperor and also reports directly to the Emperor.
It is almost the time for the annual Divine Deputy Bureau deputy quality exam.
As long as you pass this exam,
you will become a true deputy.
I hope that there are more people this year
who will pass this Deputy exam.
Ji Yao Hua of the Crane Division.
Coldblood of the Kirin Division.
You two will be overseers in this year's exam.
You must maintaining the discipline of the exam location. Be the role model
-to ensure the fairness of the exam. -Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.
The topic of this year's exam is the "Records of Prosecution Justice" from the Song Dynasty.
I hope everyone
will prepare well for this time's exam.
Yes, Sir!
Sir Zhuge.
Coldblood, from now on, all of your daily living
matters will be taken care of by Chu Li Mo.
Uncle,
I am used to be all by myself.
-I don't need a maid. -That's right. Kirin Division is an all male deputy division.
There's no tradition of letting a woman living there.
Alright! I've already decided, so no one may have an opinion.
Sir!
Come Xiao Mei, have a seat.
Why does that girl not get her punishment when she does something wrong? On top of that she gets to serve Mr. Coldblood?!
-That is so not fair!That's right! At Maple Courts she can interact with the the Four Infamous Deputies.
She has only been here for ten plus days and has already achieved my many years' goal!
What's her trick? I've been here for so many years,
I've never been able to serve the Four deputies.
-She may have some background. It's hard to compare with other people.-Ye Er!
Don't you see that it's raining? Quickly bring the clothes in.
Yeah. Go.
Bring the clothes in!
Let's go!
They are so rude. Since they can't pick on me, now they pick on you!
Their little child's play cannot affect me.
The more pitiful I act, the more I can hide from them.
I will do anything as long as my husband can get better.
Ye Er, I you really touched me.
If you have anything you need help with, just ask me.
But, you have to promise me that you won't harm anyone.
Li Mo, I already said I just wanted a little bit of his blood.
I won't harm anyone.
Now I have to take care of...I won't see much of you now.
Take good care of yourself.
I just want blood and nothing else.
Nine-Tailed Fox, how has it been?
I have change to another method.
This time it has a high possibility of success.
I guess you finally listened to my advice.
Tell me. How will you get close to Coldblood?
There's a maid named Chu Li Mo, who is my friend.
She has been sent by the Zhuge Zheng Wo to be Coldblood's personal maid.
Thus, I have more opportunities to get close to Coldblood.
As long as the time is ripe, I am certain
to able to obtain Coldblood's blood.
Only by betraying your own friend,
betraying your sincerity,
so that you will attain a small amount of an outcome..
I've made no mistake in how I saw you.
No, I don't have friends.
As long as I can save my husband's life,
I will do anything you want me to do.
Good. You have to be well prepare to seize the right moment. When the blood arrived,
we will start to make the medicine.
Yes.
Chun Tong.
Royal Lord.
-Royal Lord. -How are the Four Great Villains lately?
After one of them died,
the three left, went into hiding.
They are afraid of death.
I don't think they'll make another rash move.
They are close like brothers.
They will definitely deal with the Divine Deputy Bureau.
We need to wait patiently.
The show is getting better.
Husband.
Husband!
Xue Mei.
Husband. Where did you go? I thought you..
Thought I what?
Look at what I had made for you?
You made it?
Do you know what day it is today?
What day?
It's your birthday.
I made this bowl of longevity noodles specially for you.
You made it?
But, Husband, how can you make your own food?
It wouldn't harm me to make a bowl of noodles.
Here, eat it while it's still warm.
Take it slowly.
Let me do it.
Careful.
Come. Sit.
Quick. Eat it while it's warm.
Husband, I want you to feed me.
Okay, I'll feed you.
Here.

Xue Mei, I also want you
to stay by my side forever.
I know I'm a burden to you.
But if it's like now, one more day of burdening you,
then I am also blessed.
Husband.
How can you be a burden to me?
As long as you're by my side, it is my biggest blessing.
Husband.
It must be that you're tired. I'll help you on the bed to rest.
Slowly.
Li Mo, about how I treated you in the past,
it's all my fault. I hope you're not angry with me.
You have moved up,
don't forget about me.
It's nothing. The biggest weakness that I have is that I have a bad memory.
I have forgotten about everything in the past.
Oh, it's good to forget! Good to forget!
Li Mo, follow me. Come. Come.
Look, these are dishes that I specially made for you.
Come, have a taste.
Thank you Chun Ping.
There's no need for thanks. We are good sisters!
Li Mo, I has something to ask of you.
What is it? Tell me.
Don't tell me to steal that...
No, no way. I just thought maybe in front of Coldblood
you can mention more good things about me.
If you have free time, then you can come visit me,
and tell me updates about Commander Coldblood.
That's not hard. But Sister Chun Ping. I also have something I want to ask of you.
You..you...tell me.
In the future, help me take more care of Ye Er. Don't let Xiao Mei and the girls pick on her.
Sure. I'll take care of that. I'll look after her like my little sister.
Commander Coldblood.
You will live over there from now on.
Why is she here?
Commander Coldblood, Sir Zhuge sent her to take of you.
But I don't really want to let her come here either.
What about we switch and I come here to serve you instead?
Come over here.
We still didn't clarify why you stole my handkerchief last time.
What do you want to do this time?
Chun Ping.
About the handkerchief incident, weren't you going to give an explanation for me?
Who told me to steal it?
Oh, I forgot. Look at my memory.
There are so many things that needed to be done in the kitchen.
Commander Coldblood, since it is Sir Zhuge's order, we servants can only obey the command.
Please bare with it for now, after a few days I'll come serve you. I'll go now.
Chun Ping!
Chun Ping! Why do you just leave like that?
Even she has left.
So you can leave too.
If was not for Sir Zhug's order for me to serve you, I don't want to stay here either.
But since I already came here,
then I won't leave.
Because it's Sir Zhuge's order.
I am staying here out of respect for Sir.
My own little wing room.
Wow! What a big room!
I even have my own bed!
Where's he?
Why are you making so much noise?
I'm warning you. In the future when I sleep
you are not allow to enter my room. Also..
Also...Don't you dare touch my things. After items are wiped you must be it back to its original position.
When I sleep,
do not wander around.
-What if I need to answer the call of nature, what should I do?-Bear it!
Then from now on I am over here. Add another curtain.
-Our well water does not bother the river water. -This is my room. You don't have the right.
I...true that I don't have the right.
Then I won't add one. Forget it.
So busy the whole day.
I will go take a rest.
I'll bear with it!
Yay! Rest! Who told you to rest?
I tell you, clean up this entire room.
Brother Leng.
It's so late already, why are you still here?
I can't sleep, so I came out to get some fresh air.
How come you aren't asleep yet?
It's getting hotter and hotter each day.
I got a new bamboo woven mat.
Even though bamboos are common, the special thing about this one is
that it's made from bamboos deep within Mount Shu Zhong. This type of bamboo is as thin as the wings of a cicada,
one woven mat is no heavier than 50 grams. When you sleep, it doesn't stick to your body.
I think that this is too cold and refreshing, not suitable for women to use.
How about I give it to you to use it?
Thank you.
You should keep it for yourself to use.
I still have some more. It's better for you to use it.
Commander Ji. Mr. Leng.
I have cleaned your room for you.
If you don't have any other orders, I'll go rest now.
Hey, get me a tub of hot water.
Yes.
Brother Leng, is she sleeping in your room?
It's Uncle's order to have her to stay in my side room.
Don't misunderstand.
It's two rooms.
I'm curious why Sir Zhuge sent her as your maid.
How can you deal with her attitude?
-At the least, you should find a more quiet one..-Forget it.
Let's not talk about her anymore.
It's getting late.
Go back and rest.
Aye, this mat?
Keep it for yourself to use.
Sister Ji.
Did you not take this mat to him?
Oh, not yet.
-Chu Li Mo. -Did Chu Li Mo really move over there?
How...how can that be? A single man and woman living in the same room.
Commander Coldblood is refined and elegant, any girl would like him.
Enough. I'm tired.
Okay, then you should rest early.
Aye, that's right. Since I am at his side, how can I help Ye Er steal Coldblood's blood?
Mr. Leng.
Here's the hot water.
You see this water. I added some rose petals and milk.
You are so good to me.
Here. I'll help you take off your shoes.
No need..I'll do it myself.
Oh, no. It's bleeding. Let me help you clean it.
Li Mo.
You scared me to death!
What are you doing in the middle of the night? I've been looking for you for so long
You...Do you still remember what I asked you to do?
I remember! You want his blood.
Then did you get it yet?
-I got it! -Really? Where is it?
I almost got it and you woke me up.
Li Mo!
-I'm not kidding with you. I...I wasn't kidding either.
It's easy for you to get Coldblood's blood now that you're living in his room.
It's not that easy.
Someone one like him with great martial arts skills and caution.
Then you should get it while he's sleeping.
I understand. I will definitely do what I promised you.
But it's not the right time right.
Li Mo, I'm afraid that there's not enough time. My husband is about to died. You must help me as soon as possible.
Don't worry. Trust me.
I already thought up a wonderful plan.
Hot water's here.
- Why are you slow? -Doesn't it take time to boil water?
Here.
I'm tired. Don't want to wash.
Play me!
Don't wash then. I'll wash myself.
What are you laughing about?
I didn't laugh? Which one of your eyes say me laugh?
I saw it with both of my eyes.
I just wanted to say that from now on,
I will definitely take care of you.
I also believe that you will treat me well.
So I'm happy.
You smile is too fake.
You should practice more when you go back.
Yes.
I will now bring your hot water and practice a little.
Mr. Leng, where are you?
Hurry up and come over here.
Did you smell it yet? Doesn't this water smell nice?
It's because I put rose petals and milk in it.
Hehe... is this smile sincere enough?
It's still so fake.
Come, please have a seat.
Treating me so well?
Didn't I say before? From today onward, I will serve you well.
I believe that Mr. Leng will also treat me well, correct?
Here. Let me help you take your shoes off.
What about this? I help you wash.
No. That's not right. I'm a maid.
No.
You see I've always picked on you.
Just think of this time as a way for me to make it up to you.
But I added rose petals and milk. If you let me wash, it would be a waste.
Take of your shoes and I'll help you wash.
There's nails in there.
Nails?
-Which one of your eyes saw nails? -Then you go!
There really are nails in there!
You really have good eyes!
I will immediate go change another tub.
And she says she wants to treat me better.
It's obvious she wants to play a trick on me.
What? How can he see through my plan?
My precious foot nearly got injured.
How come this method did not work?
No. I need to come up with a method.
-Hey! I'll tell you a big secret.-What secret?
- Say it! -You've seen the handkerchief that uncle brings around with him all the time, right?
There's something sewed on the handkerchief.
Aren't you guys curious?
On uncle's fiftieth birthday, that handkerchief was
- given to him by Lady Jiao. - Lady Jiao also sewed a colorful kirin on it.
She sewed the kirin with her own hands. It almost seemed like it is alive.
The golden thread that Lady Jiao used came from Tian Yu.
So the colors are especially vibrant and pretty.
It's said that, wherever the kirin steps on it will bring good luck to the people living there.
So the kirin sewed by Lady Jiao to uncle is representative of good luck and fortune.
Uncle's fiftieth birthday, that year I was away investigating on a case.
-I didn't know about this. -But Uncle and Lady Jiao has known each for so many years.
Their relationship looks like both a friend and a lover.
It's a bit confusing.
I actually think that they're more like intimate friends.
-They loved each other. -Since they loved each other. Then why didn't they get married when they were young?
Hey, I know this secret!
-Say it only if it means something. -Are you certain
-what you know is a secret? -Not like the handkerchief, everyone knew about it.
You were the only one who thought it was a secret.
Princess Zi Luo told me this secret.
Does the palace's gossip count as a secret? Does it?
-Quickly say it.-Does it consider a secret?
Say it!
At that time, Lady Jiao was the princess.
She accidentally fell while tour the lake.
-Do you know who saved her? -Who?
-Uncle. -Uncle? Wow!
The hero saves the beauty.
Lady Jiao was so grateful that she fell in love with Uncle.
But the Emperor thought they weren't compatible.
Back then, Uncle must be just a subordinate.
That's right. Just like you right now. But Uncle,
-with his abilities, he soon became the chief commander of the Divine Deputy Bureau.-And then?
And then Lady Jiao then felt that since Uncle is the chief commander now, then they are compatible.
But the emporer came up with reason that their social status is not match to prevent them from marrying each other.
-Emperor did not follow up with that? - Of course he did!
He also commanded her to go back to the palace. But Lady Jiao said,
if the Emperor won't let her marry him, she would never return to the palace again.
No wonder they did not get married when they were young.
They kept dragging it out until we are all grown up now. It's been 20 plus years.
Never thought Uncle and Lady Jiao have such a moving love affair.
Brothers, does this count as a secret?
This is a secret that neither of us knew about.
-This does count as a secret. -And it's a big secret.
-Now you all know this big secret. Shouldn't you buy me a nice meal at Bright Moon Lounge?
-There you go again.-You always want to go to Bright Moon Lounge to eat and to drink for free.
Yeah.
-We won't fall for that!-Let's go!
Bye!
-Senior uncle. -Li Mo.
How's your progress with the arts of mind reading?
Li Mo won't dare to be lazy. I've been studing it every second of the day.
Great. Now is the time to test you.
These people are so laughable.
They've been lock in a cage.
And one of them is dumbly looking at me.
They also want me to learn to talk.
It's so boring!
Senior uncle, I had read it.
It thinks that humans are living in a cage.
It thinks it's boring that we're trying to force it to learn to speak the with human words.
Oh. So in the eyes of a parrot,
we are living in a cage.
People move me here and there everyday. When will the torture ends?
Oh, little rabbit. You are really pitiful.
Why are you looking at me? Please don't eat me? Please don't!
It wants freedom. Why don't you free it?
Where did it go?
Hey! Don't run!
Senior uncle, I'm sorry. That dog's way too mischievous. It won't stop for me to look in its eyes.
I don't know what it's thinking.
Li Mo, even though our eyes can represent our hearts,
but we can't totally just depend on that.
Because sometimes the other won't give us a chance to see them face to face.
At that time, you can only depend on your heart. Use your heart to watch and see what they are actually thinking about.
I know. This is very difficult.
Senior uncle, this is really too difficult.
All methods come from the heart/mind.
All commands come from the heart/mind.The heart/mind controls the human body.
The mind controls the energy/spirit.
Oh, I am so dumb.
I got all spun around by a dog.
Senior uncles was right.
My mind reading not only
needs to use my eyes but also need to use my heart/mind.
Eyes.
My eyes are pretty big.

Why is he wearing clothes covering so properly when he goes to sleep?
This person is so spiteful! Why does he make noise when he is sleeping?
