Green Hill Fox Legend
[Zhong Nan Mountain]
Senior!
Senior, you're back! You're back!
Senior, you're whereabouts are really hard to find. Seeing you is really a rare thing.
That's right.
Aren't I back now?
I think...there's an 80% chance that you've met a troublesome demon that's why you're back, isn't that so?
Senior?
Seeing that you're lost in your thoughts,
you couldn't have been bewitched by some raccoon or a vixen, right?
What nonsense are you saying?
But this time, I did indeed encounter a cunning wolf demon.
I fought with him but carelessly let him escape.
Being able to escape from Senior's hands, he is indeed formidable.
We will immediately pack our things and go with Senior to catch him.
It's just that...where did Senior encounter that wolf demon?
At...
a rich family's home only.
You guys shouldn't act rashly, too. We still need to plan this thing well.
Being sneaky like that,
it's all just to measure this foot of mine?
Your shoes are already damaged. I want to buy you a new pair.
Do you like shoes made of fabric or animal skin?
Do you have any requirement?
Who's there?
I know that you don't want to see me.
But because I'm worried about you, so I've been following you since you left.
Zhong Nan Mountain is a sacred spiritual training ground.
As a fox spirit, you dare to come up this mountain alone?
Don't you want to live anymore?!
You're worried about me?
- You are clearly worried about me. But why do you still --- Absurd!
You and I, man and monster, are of different paths and are natural enemies. Previously, I let you go.
But you don't know when to move and when to retreat. Boldly following me here to Zhong Nan Mountain.
Do you know that any of my same sect brothers here will not let you go?
Then if your same sect brothers will really deal with me,
will you not intervene and just let them hack me to pieces?
Hmp!
Do you really think I won't kill you?
I don't believe it. If you can really treat me cruelly,
- then just kill me now.- You!
This is really preposterous!
You can't bear to hurt me
because in your heart, you still feel something for me.
Right?
If you really are unconcerned about me,
- then why are you still wearing the shoes I gave you --- Enough!
We are only strangers that came together by chance and I have already showed you extreme benevolence and utmost duty.
I'll say it once again. From now on, you and I have no connections anymore.
I'll let what happened today go.
If I ever saw you again in the future,
don't blame me for being heartless.
I understand already.
It's a forever goodbye then.
Are you insane? Do you want to die?
I just want to prove one thing.
Now, I finally have an answer.
You clearly care about me.
But why won't you just accept me?
Could it be just because I'm a monster?
Being a fox spirit,
I wholeheartedly focus on doing good deeds. I have never harmed any human.
Could it be just because of an identity that I don't have the choice of choosing;
hence, I don't have the right to love a human?
You're focused on doing good deeds. You never harmed any humans.
Then that time, why did you transform into a white fox and suck someone else's core energy?
So you were mistakenly thinking that white fox is me?
Mistake?
You foxes
are very good in flowery words and bewitching human hearts.
Did you think that I'll fall into it again?
That day, I chased the white fox into the forest.
You just happened to appear there. Don't tell me that it's just coincidence.
- Come with me.- Let go!
I will never let go. You don't believe my words.
Then I can only bring you to personally see it, personally prove it.
I believe that the Shi Taipu I know is not a subjective person like this.
What is it? Having second thoughts?
Is it that you don't dare to prove it or you don't have the means to prove it?
I'm just afraid that you'll once again hurt her.
She has already transformed back to her original form since that day.
If you are not willing to spare her, then I'm bringing her death.
If all you said were true,
then won't I have no reason to hurt her again?
Then good. I'll believe you.
Don't be afraid. He won't harm you.
This scar is indeed from my silver arrow.
Even the site of injury is identical.
Go back now.
Then that day when I was chasing the white fox,
was your appearance really just a coincidence?
It's not a coincidence. I was really looking for you
and then I unintentionally bumped into that white fox monster.
Although you have never harmed humans, but you fox monsters cover for each other.
It's wallowing in the same dirty deeds.
How come in your eyes, monsters are extremely evil and shouldn't be forgiven?
Shouldn't good, bad, right, and evil
be judged according to one's identity?
I thought that you would understand that more than anyone.
Because in the eyes of the other humans, you are a wanted criminal.
But the real you is a kind and righteous person.
But why are you just intent on the fact that I'm a monster
and won't look at my inner feelings? Won't see all the good deeds I've done?
So what if I understand it?
You're a monster. Do you plan to follow a demon catcher forever?
You and I will never have a result.
Go now. Just treat it as we've never met.
Dad
You're back.
Isn't this Mom's favorite flower when she was still alive?
Right. This flower is called White Pagoda.
It likes warmth but afraid of too much sunlight.
Likes water but cannot be too damp.
Especially during Sanfutian (3 hottest periods of summer from July to August), you have to water them once in the morning and once in the evening,
but the pot must not be soaked with water.
It's really hard to plant this,
but your Mom just loved them.
And also,
when this flower withers, that...
You know the usual flowers, right? When the usual flowers wither,
their petals fall one by one like struggling on while at death's door.
But when this flower withers, it's the whole flower falling off.
That's really dying in a grand way!
Your mom is really an exceptional woman.
Even her favorite flower is such with an outstanding magnanimity.
Mom was really a woman who could compete with the usual men.
When she was still alive, she had traveled the world and exercised chivalry.
But Dad liked the human world for it's bustling and stability.
Whether in character or in likes, the two of you were the exact opposite.
Then how were the both of you able to be together and love each other deeply?
I...relied on
willpower and spirit of never admitting defeat.
Hence, I was able to bet with my life and get me a woman in return.
Huh? When you were courting Mom, you frequently fought with her?
How could I defeat her?
It's quite embarrassing to talk about this. That time,
I was shameless in pestering her continuously. Pestering until she softened.
Pestering her until she was moved.
Not leaving his side.
As long as you give your true heart and are sincere, you will slowly move him.
Dad!
It wasn't easy for you and Mom to end up together.
Then why did you let her go and let her travel around the world alone?
A bird is born to fly.
If you forcefully trap it inside a cage, that will kill it.
Your mom is also the same. She has her own ambitions.
If you love her, then don't try to changer her.
Let her be her true self,
which is also the her that I loved.
So loving someone is actually accepting their original self.
Then did you ever suspect that maybe Mom left you
because she didn't love you anymore?
Of course not.
Let me tell you. This thing about feelings,
only oneself can know it clearly.
If you love someone or not, only you can know it.
You can't lie to yourself nor can you lie to the other person.
Sister, are you really going to learn the technique of catching monsters?
I've decided, so I'm going to do it. But you must not tell Dad.
Okay.
This definitely is another gift sent by some young master who admires Sister.
Let me see.
Don't be afraid. I'm here.
This wound, I'm afraid, was made by a wolf monster.
How are we going to deal with this?
The wolf monster is clearly alive and will definitely return to seek revenge.
But that... demon catcher is not around.
That's right. What should we do?
Everyone, let's not panic first and lose sight of things.
The wolf monster is naturally ruthless. If he has already recovered,
he will definitely not stop in just scaring us,
but will directly go to us for revenge.
He obviously has not fully recovered yet.
What is his purpose for doing these small actions?
He wants us to live our days in fear
until our mind and body get tired from it. Then he will use the chance to attack us.
Who will know when he will fully recover?
It can be 10 days from now or it can be tomorrow.
We cannot just sit here and wait, right?
That Mister Shi...
didn't he clearly promise us that he would catch the wolf monster for us?
How can he just leave during this important time?
He's really irresponsible. Completely not dependable!
I don't believe that without this demon catcher,
we won't be able to subdue that wolf monster.
Everyone, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to deal with that wolf monster.
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Gone with the Shirt team @ Viki
Are you crazy?!
Why did you block my arrow?
They are just children. Don't harm them.
Their father is the wolf monster that wanted to kill your whole family.
You did not just eliminate the weeds and roots but even risked your life to save them.
The wife and kids should not be involved in one's mistakes. Most especially, his children are innocent.
Can't you just spare their life?
In this soft-hearted moment of yours, aren't you afraid of leaving future troubles?
Maybe now they will be grateful to you,
but who knows in the future if they will use hate to repay your kindness and bite you in return.
They are still small. Whether they will be good or bad is still unknown.
If one will guide them well, maybe they will become good monsters.
This is only your one-sided idea.
A monster is a monster. If they focus on good deeds, then they should have become immortals already.
How come after thousands of years, they are still reincarnated as monsters?
Even though I'm a fox,
but my greatest wish is
that, one day, I can be able to cultivate up to an immortal spiritual state and become an Immortal Fox.
For monsters present in this world,
not doing evil deeds is a requirement for cultivation.
Some monsters go astray but you shouldn't generalized it with the rest.
Being a demon catcher, you should be rewarding the good and punishing the evil and not just killing all monsters.
Because if it's like that, then the monsters in this world...
wouldn't they have no chance to cultivate into an immortal spiritual state anymore?
You!
Sister! Sister, what's wrong?
Sister...what's wrong?
If you still won't pull out the silver arrow, then your arm will be gone.
Unless you promise me that you won't harm them.
I beg of you.
Don't hurt them. Don't...
Won't you guys hurry and escape!
- Hurry and go!- Let's hurry and go.
I've never seen a more stupid monster than you.
And I've never seen a kinder monster than you.
Are you really different from the other monsters?
- Where are the little wolf monsters?- Don't worry.
The two of them are fine.
Rather than worrying about those two little wolf monsters,
you should worry more about your own injury.
I'm fine. I just incurred a minor injury.
Thank you for treating my wound.
In my lifetime, I have only known how to catch monsters and not how to save them.
I also don't know what medicine suits you.
I was not of much help.
Where are you going?
Don't leave me alone. Okay?
You're injured so stop thinking unnecessary things.
I'm going to get you something to eat.
Okay.
Then I'll wait for you.
A hard rock will also nod.
Brother Shi.
Brother Shi!
Thank you for your clothes. And also...
You're overthinking again. The weather is just too cold.
I made this fire for myself.
While your injury is not healed yet,
I will be here and won't go. Just rest well.
♫ Heartache so splendid that you can’t open your mouth to say a word ♫
♫ My suspicions ♫
♫ took me to a never ending fall from grace. ♫
♫ Didn’t have enough time to undo all the silence ♫
♫ and finally drown ♫
♫ We used to have it. We mistakenly charged it.Each other’s dreams, ♫
♫ squandered for each other. ♫
♫ After waking up from our dreams, we stand in the road to freedom ♫
♫ not knowing what to do. ♫
Why are you not resting well to recuperate and instead are here this early in the morning?
I feel better now so I came here to clean my wound.
It's good that the wolf monster did not discover you.
Next time, don't just go out without saying a word.
I know it already. If it had happened to you, I would also be worried.
I am a demon catcher. How can I let a monster worry about me?
Help me put on some medicine then.
♫ Remnant of that little apprehension ♫
♫ Does that prove that we really loved? ♫
Fine then. I'll just do it myself.
♫ That time blissfulness makes people shudder. ♫
♫ In the blink of an eye ♫
♫ Only loneliness was left that is cruel enough not to let go ♫
Give it to me.
Usually when I get hurt,
I just haphazardly put a bandage on it.
No one takes care of me and I also don't like taking care of others.
What you're doing is already good enough.
Actually, I'm already very happy.
This is for you to quench your thirst. Catch!
Thank you.
Your injury is not yet healed but you're quick already. What if you're fully healed already?
You are clearly worried about me but you keep saying otherwise.
If I tell you that I'm fully healed already,
will you still be this nice to me?
You!
Can you bear to leave me?
I...
Anyway, I can't bear for you to go. I will always be with you.
Then you secretly learning my monster-catching technique is for what purpose?
You already know that my whole family are foxes.
That's why I think that you will never help us catch the wolf monster again.
Not long ago, the wolf monster sent us
a fox tail that was bitten off to scare us.
Once he regains power, he will definitely come back to seek revenge.
I went to find you because I want to learn the monster catching technique from you
so I can protect my family.
I definitely will not allow the wolf monster to hurt my family again.
Will you really not help me?
I will also definitely not teach a monster the monster-catching technique.
But only you can help me. I'm begging you.
Begging me is of no use.
This is not as simple as just begging.
I know. Teaching a monster the monster-catching technique
is something that shouldn't have ever been discussed.
I also know that you're worried that once I learn it,
I might be a contender against demon catchers and do evil to harm people.
And might even teach other monsters.
It's good that you understand it.
In the end, you still don't trust me.
Do you really not know what kind of person I am?
Then why didn't you tell me that you're injury was already healed?
I lied to you because I wanted to be with you for several more days.
It's no use for you saying more.
With this time, why don't you just go home earlier and make preparations.
Stop wasting time with me.
What are you doing?
White fox Weng Changting is swearing to the Heavens
that if I'm able to learn Shi Taipu's monster catching technique,
I will only use it to punish and destroy evil monsters in the future.
If I use the monster-catching technique to harm any person,
then I'll die under Shi Taipu's silver arrow;
dissipating from then on and never to be reincarnated.
Who told you to make oaths haphazardly?
And even doing it with my silver arrow.
Do you really want to die from my hands? Have you thought of my feelings?
♫ Asking the moon, how long more must I wait? ♫
♫ Unknowingly sitting on the cold window sill. ♫
♫ Suddenly, he put on the moon’s color and entered my dream. ♫
♫ Fulfilling my lifetime of true love. ♫
Hey, why are you guys eating these things again?
Sister?
Sister, Mother was gravely injured for unknown reasons and died.
Dad, on the other, only knows to hide and heal his injuries,
only thinking of getting revenge.
WE don't know where dad went. It's been so long since we...
so long since we've eaten anything.
You guys are still small. You don't understand the complex stuff of gratitude and grudges.
It's just that having no parents to care for you is quite pitiful.
Hey, don't go anywhere. I'll come back right away.
Eat it. It's just newly roasted.
- Is it delicious?- It's been so long since we've eaten meat.
Thank you, Sister.
If you guys really want to thank me, then promise me
that you guys won't be affected by your father's desire for revenge.
In the future, regardless of how hard life is, you guys must learn to be well-behaved and good,
not afraid of evil. Understand?
We understand.
We can do it.
That's a good child.
You guys should learn how to hunt and take good care of yourselves.
Hurry and eat then.
Come with me.
How are you?
What's going on?
You will not be able to learn the monster-catching technique.
Why?
The monster-catching technique is originally to restrain monsters.
If a monster will learn it, it will clash.
If you insist in learning it, you will definitely die from reverse effects.
Several more times like this, even I can't save you.
Hongting! Hongting!
Hongting...
Brother, look!
Changting?
Changting!
[I will be back to get Changting]
Come out already!
Why are you still here?
I must not give up.
I must learn the monster-catching technique to protect my family.
You clearly know that there's contradiction. Are you here to commit suicide?
I don't believe that I can't overcome that natural reverse energy.
This is not something that can be learned by just being headstrong and stubborn. Is it worth the trouble?
Among every living thing, if there's mutual destruction then there's also mutual creation (living).
If we can have the same goals and walk towards justice and kindness together,
then I believe that we will have the energy to come together (merge).
Don't waste your effort anymore.
If you are willing to help me, I will definitely get through this difficulty.
If you're determined to not help me,
then I'll leave.
We succeeded. We succeeded!
This is great!...
Look. It's such a beauty.
Are you alright? I was even worried about you earlier --
You are finally able to say it.
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Gone with the Shirt team @ Viki
Who's there?
Dad?
What? The wolf monster was able to take Little Sister away unnoticed?
Even you and Second Uncle didn't know?
Looks like he isn't just fully healed but his power is way stronger than before.
That's right. We presently don't know still if your little sister is dead or alive.
He even said... He threatened that his next target was you.
Say this...
Beforehand...didn't you say that even if you have to go to the ends of the sky or the four corners of the oceans,
you will destroy that wolf monster?
I beg of you. Please come with us immediately to catch the wolf monster.
Weren't you even confidently vowing beforehand? This...
So you big demon catcher, hearing that the wolf monster's power has increased,
- have gotten scared.- You!
Dad, let's stop making things difficult for Shi Sheng already.
I've already learned monster-catching techniques from Shi Sheng.
Let us solve our family's problems by ourselves.
You haven't even learned the basic skills firmly yet and yet you unrealistically plan to use it against the wolf monster already?
You really don't know the limit of your own power.
Hongting is my little sister. Even if the chance is very bleak,
- I will still risk it.- You...
Then do as you wish. Just treat it as if I never said anything.
Thank you for taking care of me these past few days.
Goodbye.
Dad, let's go now.
Hey, Changting...
What is this you're doing?
Look how anxious you are. Didn't you also say it earlier?
Changting is not that wolf monster's match.
I can see that
you are very worried about her.
I know that you are not heartless towards Changting.
It's just because our family are fox monsters and you are a demon catcher.
In your heart, you are unable to get over that obstacle all along.
It's good that you understand it.
Take care.
You...listen to me.
You better not think that I'm afraid to die and came here to beg you.
I've already lived for a thousand years already, okay?
About the human world's sour, sweet, bitter, and spiciness, multiple storms,
I've already went through a lot of them.
Life and death for me is already not important.
At worst, just risk this old life of mine and fight with that wolf monster!
The reason I want to talk to you is because my wife died early.
These two children were personally raised by me.
For me, they are my only treasures
in this world.
But now...
Hongting's whereabouts are unknown and we don't even know if she's dead or alive.
How can I let Changting risk even a bit of danger?
I know that you also care for Changting.
Can you bear to watch her go there and get killed?
Don't say anything anymore.
I've already decided.
I'm begging you!
As long as you can
kill the wolf monster and save Hongting...
Just say it, I'll give you whatever you want.
A demon catcher has a pure heart and no desire. I don't have anything I want.
You...
Say, me being a dad,
what did I work so hard for for all these years?
I only wanted my two daughters
to be safe.
Say, if anything happens to them,
what dignity do I have left to stay living in this world.
I know...that even if I die,
you will have the ability to protect Changting.
But...in this life
before I die, I...
I beg you to promise me one thing, okay?
Say it.
You...
If you...truly love Changting,
I promise that once you destroy the wolf demon
and save Hongting
then I will let Changting marry you.
I already promosed you guys that I will help you kill the wolf demon.
Regardless, I will stay true to my promise.
Able to do what one says, you're a true man!
Changting was right about you.
Dad, why did you use a charm to make me faint
and continue to bother Brother Shi?
Let me tell you that this guy only has one nerve in his wooden brain.
If not for me personally interfering, using reasons to make him realize and emotions to move him,
he would never agree to help us catch the monster.
It's just that...I also promised him to let you --
Catching monsters is my god-given task. No need to talk about other things.
No matter what, thank you for upholding justice and helping us.
Let's start moving.
This flower...I seem to have seen it somewhere.
This is wolfs-bane. Also called sky-wolf-star-grass. It's a wolf's nemesis.
Don't look at this flower's color as being beautiful. Actually, the flower has poison.
It is especially used to deal with wolves.
This is also a gift I prepared to give the wolf monster.
Then do you have anything that I can help with?
Just dip these arrows into the poison's juice.
Careful. Don't get some on your hands.
If you had obediently listened to me,
I might have spared your life.
But instead you made me very unhappy, so don't blame for being heartless.
If you kill me, my family will definitely not let you go.
It so happens, I also want to try your Sister's taste.
If you want to kill someone, kill me. Don't you dare do anything to my sister.
Little cutie, how will I bear to let you die wastefully?
Not only will I not kill you but I will let you go.
My two precious sons have never hunted a fox yet.
Today, I'll let them kill one.
Let them feel the wonderful feeling of tearing into flesh.
What do you want?
I will let you go with them.
Let's see if you can escape faster or they can chase faster.
You guys go and bite this fox monster to death.
Bring her bones back with you. This is your test.
Go!
Brother Shi.
Hongting?
They're not here to kill me. They're here to save me.
That's right. They don't have any evil intentions.
How do you know that they don't have evil intentions?
Sister Changting!
Because I saved them once.
You guys know that Hongting is Changting's little sister?
We don't know. We just firmly remembered
what Sister Changting said that people who are good to us,
we must not hurt them.
Sister Changting previously saved us.
We also want to be as kind as sister.
Sister, so you actually saved them previously.
Looks like the Heavens secretly have their own arrangements.
Oh, little sister, are you alright? Were you injured by the wolf monster?
No. During these days that I was locked up by the wolf monster,
I formed a bond with these two little wolf monsters.
We took care of each other.
Dad, were so hungry. Hurry and take us to hunt.
Dad, don't just focus on training. We're gonna die from hunger already.
Hurry and take us to hunt.
Don't be scared.
You two just know to eat, drink, defecate/urinate, scatter, and sleep.
Throwing away the grudge for your mother's death.
Look how I teach you guys a lesson.
Don't hit them! If you want revenge, then seek it from me.
What's the point of hurting two innocent children?
Shut up! It's all because of you guys that this ending happened.
I'll take care of you guys after I finish training.
Sister, how are you?
I'm fine.
I'm so hungry.
I can see that you two are naturally not bad.
How about I tell you how to catch field rats.
Okay!
They just want to fool the wolf monster, that's why they intentionally pounced on me to make me roll down the hill.
That's right. Only by avoiding father's close watch
can we save Sister Hongting.
We were already careful when we pounced on her.
- I was afraid that we'd hurt Sister Hongting.- I'm fine.
I just know that you guys can get rid of evil and do good deeds.
You guys really didn't disappoint me.
Right now, I'm giving you two a task.
Protect Sister Hongting while leaving here. Can you guys do it?
Don't worry. We will definitely
protect Sister Hongting well.
Sister, you must be careful, too.
Where did the wolf monster go? Today is the 15th, a full moon.
Without clouds covering the moon, this is the time when the wolf monster's power is strongest.
That's why we must find the wolf monster before night time.
The wolf monster seems to have gone to my house.
Let's hurry.
Fox spirit, today is your death day!
I've already finished settling them down.
