Half-Blooded Fox Chapter: Ying Ning
Tonight, it all depends on you.
Whoever catches the demon, I will reward them!
As long as, Ying Ning, this fox spirit appears, all of you scream loudly;
then all of you appear and catch her alive. Do you understand?
- We understand! - Hurry and go!
Okay, okay. Let's go!
Dong Lai, come!
You're here on time. I think,
just relying on these workers to protect the mill is not enough.
I'm afraid those women are not going to pay much effort.
Quick, get some more guards here!
Auntie, Ying Ning is a fox spirit. No matter how many people you find, it will be useless.
Also, she has already decided to leave so she will probably never return.
A fox spirit's word you believe?
I only have Zi Fu as my son.
I don't want him to be harmed in any way!
Then why don't you go and take care of him.
Right. Zi Fu...
- Zi Fu, where is Zi Fu? - He's been standing among the flowers for a whole day without moving.
- Isn't that young master? - Yes, why is he there?
From today onward, every branch and leaf in this flower patch will be looked after by me only.
No one else is needed to help.
- How is that possible? -Why?-If Madam finds out she will scold us!
She will definitely punish us!
Da Huang, do you miss her, too? I promised Ying Ning
I would look after you and this flower patch. I'll definitely do it.
Zi Fu.
Zi Fu! What are you doing?
You don't have to do this.
I miss Ying Ning. I've decided,
whenever I miss her, I will come and take care of the flowers.
Zi Fu! Mother does't allow you to do this!
You don't allow me to look after the flowers, or don't allow me to think of Ying Ning?
I just...
Zi Fu!
Timing & Subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team @viki
Mother, you were looking for me?
Zi Fu, it's time for you to get married.
Mother has chosen some ladies for you. Over the next few days, go and visit them, see if there is one you like.
I understand Mother's intentions,
but because of the powder factory,
I still wish that the flowers will bloom earlier.
So, I hope Mother understands.
Zi Fu!
You still can't tell?
That fox spirit has cast a spell on the flowers so they cannot open at all!
She just wants to seduce you; she has a poisonous heart!
There are still things to do in the flower farm. I will go back there now.
- Zi Fu! - Auntie-Auntie, don't be angry.
Zi Fu is just missing Ying Ning, after some days he will definitely forget her!
Right! If you give him some more days, he would definitely forget his own mother!
There's a fire! A Fire!
-Quick put it out!-Put the fire out!
Don't move! I want to burn this entire flower patch!
Mother! Mother! What are you doing?
These flowers were looked after by Ying Ning and are the life source of our factory!
Ying Ning. Ying Ning. I think your soul has been stolen by that demon!
She's not around but you still can't forget her.
As long as the flowers exist, you won't be able to forget her.
Zi Fu, this is for your own good. I want to burn down all the flowers,
then you will come to your senses and forget her!
Mother! This is not the case!
Give it to me.
Move aside!
Zi Fu, there is no use. Let it burn!
When it's all gone, then it's good. Forget Ying Ning. Forget her!
Mother! I only have Ying Ning in my heart.
In this life, other than Ying Ning, I will not keep anyone else in my heart!
Even if the flower patch is gone, I will rebuild it. If you burn it again, I will rebuild it again!
I will let these flowers bloom again sooner or later.
This flower patch is my love for Ying Ning!
It's a flower bud! The flowers are blooming!
It must be because of Ying Ning,
because of her magic that's why it bloomed!
Flower bud-flower bud, can you tell me where Ying Ning is?
I really want to see her. Can you tell me where she is?
Love in the human world, can be so sweet and so bitter.
Today, I think I understand it now.
It's really so hard to bear.
Everytime I think of Zi Fu, my chest feels tight
like it's being squashed by an invisible rock.
I feel so oppressed.
Will I be able to be as happy as I was in the past?
Can I?
You can.
Time is the medicine to cure everything. After some time,
slowly, everything will be diluted.
Auntie Lan...
Don't think so much. You wanted to make powder for the sisters in Green Hill, right?
The mountain in the east has flowers that are all fully bloomed.
Why don't you go pick them and do something meaningful?
Yes.
Auntie Lan believes you will make the most fragrant powder in the world.
Let the little fox spirits not worry about the foxy smell around them.
Right, I will go take a look now.
Ying Ning!
I wonder how the flowers in the flower patch are.
I wonder if Zi Fu has taken care of them well.
Ying Ning!
Have you gone crazy after thinking of Zi Fu so often?
Ying Ning!
How is this happening? Can all of you hear it, too?
Ying Ning!
Auntie Lan, where is Ying Ning? Where is she?
Ying Ning has already forgotten about you. Go home.
I don't believe you.
Even if it's real, let Ying Ning come out and tell me herself.
If you are still not going to leave, I will-
Zi Fu!
Ying Ning!
Zi Fu!
Ying Ning.
I really missed you.
Go back home!
Auntie Lan, there's a saying in the human world,
that one would rather tear down ten temples than destroy one marriage!
I beg you, don't break up a loving couple. Let us be together !
I'm not making things difficult for you.
But between you two, there exists
an abyss thousands of miles deep that will shatter your body and bones, and an ocean of fire as deep as the valley.
You two cannot be together!
No! As long as we are willing, we can definitely overcome all difficulties!
Then prove it to me!
Using the ability of a mortal, how will you cross over this River of Fire?
Give up!
No matter if it is an abyss thousands of miles deep or an ocean of fire as deep as the valley,
I will go through all of it!
I definitely want to be with Ying Ning!
Auntie Lan, please don't harm him. Let him come over.
If he is sincere in crossing the Ocean of Fire or the Deep Abyss for you,
this small difficulty in front of him won't stop him.
Little guy, if you really want to be together with Ying Ning,
you will definitely find the path to your love.
This difficulty in front of you is just to confuse you.
You cannot be affected by it.
Not be affected by it...
I won't be affected by it.
The one I love is Ying Ning.
I can do it.
Zi Fu! Zi Fu! What are you going to do!
Don't be stupid! Falling in it will kill you!
Return home!
Zi Fu!
No!
There's a bridge!
Ying Ning!
Ying Ning, Auntile Lan cannot look after you in the future.
You must be very careful; stop being reckless.
Auntie Lan, rest assured. I'm already a grown woman.
Zi Fu, I see that you are a responsible person.
Today, I will give Ying Ning to you. If you are ever unkind to her for even a little bit, I will definitely not let you escape punishment.
Auntie Lan, don't worry. I will do my best in treating Ying Ning with utmost sincerity.
I won't let her suffer any injustice at all.
I cherish Ying Ning more than I cherish my own life.
I will definitely not leave Ying Ning. Not let her suffer any injuries or pain.
This time you made the decision according to what your heart wanted.
You must be extremely careful, and stay together with Zi Fu.
I understand.
Go ahead.
Auntie Lan, take care.
Let's go.
Hua Yue, you are really such a busy body.
But to forcefully separate them, Ying Ning won't be happy.
What's the matter?
Just that I remember when I was little, my mom held my hand just like this
and we came here with my father.
But...
Don't be afraid. I guarantee the things that happened in the past will not happen again.
Because now, I am here to protect you.
♪ Little lamb stay, stay. The big grey wolf is bad, bad. ♪
♪ Don't come. Don't come. I won't come. ♪
♪ Mother will come back. ♪
♪ Little lamb stay, stay. The big grey wolf is bad, bad. ♪
♪ Don't come. Don't come. I won't come. Mother will come back. ♪
Are you still scared now?
-Not afraid anymore. -Come.
Let's go.
I have sent people to look in the neighboring villages but we couldn't find Zi Fu.
- Where did this child go? So worrisome!- That's right.
Mother, I'm back.
Why are you here again?
Mother, don't worry.
Ying Ning would never harm you.
Because... I am going to marry Ying Ning soon;
thereafter, we will become one family.
What did you say?
How can you bring a demon into this household?
You dare?
Mother, don't say that about Ying Ning.
Ying Ning is willing to let go of everything.
This is the last chance for you to dissolve the hatred from the past.
Mother, as long as you agree to our marriage, the past can be dissipated.
We can live happily as one family. Wouldn't this be nice?
No! She is a demon!
Do you want me to die from anger?
If you still insist on objecting mine and Ying Ning's marriage,
then I can only be an unfilial son and leave the Wang household.
You... I... You...
Madam, there are so many disputes between the two of us.
I can let go of the fact that you tried to kill me and my mother.
I love Zi Fu and I want to spend the rest of my life with him.
Why can't you let go of the past and accept me?
I can't accept you! You are a demon, get away!
Get away now!
Mother, I want to be a filial son,
but you have to understand me.
Aunt, you only have one son and that is Zi Fu.
Yes, I only have one son, how can I not grant your wish?
I'm not a filial son. Thank you, Mother.
Thank you, Madam. I know I'm a bit disobedient,
but I'm willing to learn the rules of the human world for Zi Fu.
And the two of us will serve you together.
Aunt, I finally found it.
Quickly, set it up!
Aunt, I think...
Ying Ning and Zi Fu are happy together.
If you do something bad to Ying Ning, Zi Fu will hate you,
and that will hurt the relationship between you two.
How about...you take a step back, and the sky will be wider.
Opening one eye while closing the other, and just let them be married.
I...think Ying Ning is a good girl.
You went out for just a second and now you are supporting that demon?
I think you are also seduced by her!
A demon is a demon!
She hasn't made her move yet.
How can I let Zi Fu be trapped by a demon?
Foolish!
Ying Ning, finally, we can be husband and wife, and spend the rest of our lives together.
Who are you? Where is Ying Ning?
Ying Ning has already been taken by Madam Wang!
I'm the one who went through the wedding ceremony with you earlier.
Now we are husband and wife, there is no turning back!
Miss, I'm sorry.
This is just a mistake.
Honey, where are you going?
How come you look so weird?
Look into my eyes.
Honey, I'm wrong.
Zi Fu, I won't do it ever again.
You think you can fool me with your little tricks?
There's no way that mother could switch you with another person.
Not fun.
You are the one playing tricks, and you're mad at me?
You won't talk to me?
If you won't talk to me, then I will kiss you.
I'm really going to kiss you now.
You're so bad!
Why am I bad? I kissed you like this earlier.
Then I'm gonna kiss, too.
Ying Ning, walk nicely.
Mother, Ying Ning came to serve you tea.
Wang...
Mother-in-law, please drink some tea.
Ying Ning, since you want to be a man's wife,
you must obey the rules of our ancestors.
It's an ancient rule that...
when a woman marries into her husband's family, she has to be pure and virtuous.
Remember three obediences and four virtues.
You have to do whatever your husband and his family tell you to do.
If you break one of the seven disciplines,
you will be chased away by our family.
What are the seven disciplines? And what are the three obediences and four virtues?
The seven disciplines are rules that have been passed down a long time ago.
That means... If the wife doesn't obey her mother-in-law and father-in-law,
or she can't bear a child, is lewd, shows jealousy, has disease, speaks too much, steals...
then she will be abandoned by her husband.
But these rules don't make any sense.
A wife will be abandoned if she doesn't obey her mother-in-law and father-in-law, but what if...
it's her in-laws that are wrong? You already know that they're wrong, does she still have to obey them?
Also, she will be abandoned if she can't bear a child, if she speaks too much...
...and even when she catches disease.That's really unfair!
Then what does a husband do that will make his wife abandon him?
Nonsense! How can a wife abandon her husband?
You don't even know what you're talking about!
Mother, Ying Ning just entered the human world; there's a lot of things that she doesn't understand.
I will teach her in the future.
Also...now that you are a member of the Wang family,
you shouldn't do heavy labor.
In the future, you don't have to take care of the garden.
Stay in the house!
Do some housework, sweep the shrine and that will be enough.
And you also have to remember, every morning and night,
you have to clean the ancestors' memorial tablet and burn incense for them.
No, if the flowers don't see me, they'll be upset.
We will do what mother says.
Let's go now.
They're already dead, why would they eat incense?
Besides, why are they eating incense when people eat food?
Mom, we'll go back now. Go!
- Mother-in-law, you tell me. - A bit quickly.- Mother-in-law.
Zi Fu!
“Return to your origin, think about your source”
Great-grandfather, there's so much dust on you; so dirty.
Let me clean you up!
Great-grandfather over there, be patient. You're next.
Mother, Ying Ning is very naive. There are a lot of things that she doesn't understand.
Please forgive her and teach her how to do things.
She's very disobedient, teaching her is not an easy job.
You shouldn't spoil her.
You must let mother teach her a lesson.
Ying Ning!
Ying Ning! Are you all right?
-Are you hurt? -No, I'm fine. It's okay.
That scared me, great-grandfather. Are you alright?
Acting foolishly in front of the ancestor's memorial tablet; that is not acceptable!
And you're flying?
If you can fly, then go to the garden and do some labor!
Don't let me see you in the shrine ever again!
Mom!
Bless us, ancestors...
Ying Ning, you've been working all morning.
Come here and drink some tea.
Wait, let me water this flower bed first.
You should rest a little.
I'm not tired.
Ying Ning!
Ying Ning! Ying Ning!
Ying Ning, wake up! Ying Ning! Ying Ning!
Ying Ning, what happened to you? Ying Ning!
How could it be like this?
Who could have done this?
What are you doing?
I'm doing this.
You evil Taoist!
What have you done to Ying Ning?
Ying Ning is unconscious now.
Are you going to speak? If you don't talk...
Zi Fu, don't!
Ying Ning? Ying Ning are you alright?
Weren't you hurt by the spell earlier?
Those incantations are minor tricks. They cannot hurt me.
It's very hot today, so I guess I just had a heatstroke.
You scared me.
I thought you were hurt by the spells.
If you're okay, then that's good.
These... If these incantations were made by me,
she'd already be dust now.
How can she still stand here unhurt?
You are an evil Taoist, how can I believe you?
Look at me now! What can I still do?
I was badly hurt in that last battle.
I lost all my powers...
and I can't even walk now!
Look at me.
With only one leg, what can I do?
Otherwise, how can I be defeated by a scholar like you?
Then why are you at the powder mill?
Are you here for revenge?
I was just passing by...
Then I saw so many fake incantations and barriers.
I cannot take this any longer!
I don't want us Taoists to be humiliated , so I took off all of these fakes!
As a Taoist,
it's my job to get rid of demons and monsters.
I tell you, when my powers are back, I will kill you...
For sure!
I'll kill you!
Mother, don't you think this paper boat looks familiar?
I...I've never seen this before.
Alright then, I'll tell you. This is an incantation made by a Taoist.
But...it doesn't work on me,
because it's fake.
Mother-in-law, I'm afraid that you've been deceived.
Mother, I know that all of the incantations and spells in and out of this house are set by you.
If you still want to hurt Ying Ning, I will go with her.
The two of us won't ever separate.
And you don't have to find that evil Taoist anymore.
I've already seen Cao Fei.
You've seen him?
He is very pitiful.
He lost his powers, and his leg is now crippled.
I don't think there is another man who has stronger power than Cao Fei.
Mother, you don't need to trouble yourself in thinking of ways to hurt Ying Ning anymore.
Ying Ning, let's go back now.
Come.
Ying Ning, look at this.
Isn't this interesting?
Ying Ning, do you have something bothering you? You can tell me.
There is nothing.
I've been thinking for a long time, but I can't think of a way to make your mother like me.
Actually...you don't have to think too much about my mother.
My mother is a conservative and stubborn person.
She's hard to change. We'll have to do it slowly.
But I believe that one day, my mother will eventually like you.
Really?
Let's go and have some snacks.
What would you like?
The fried scallion pancake, the sugar cake, and the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Give me some of each.
Okay.
You said you want to cheer me up, but you're not picking the snacks that I like.
How can I cheer up?
These desserts are what my mother likes to eat.
Think about it. If you buy her these desserts,
even if she's not happy, she won't be mad.
Really?
You're happy now.
What are you doing?
Do you have enough money to pay?
Get lost!
Sir, your desserts.
Thank you.
Beat you to death!
Zi Fu, no!
We are both demons, why are you helping this man?
Do you know that he kills mercilessly and took many of our friends' inner elixir!
He is an evil Taoist!
I only know that he is a man without a weapon or power.
You shouldn't bully him.
Damn!
Let's go!
Taoist Cao. Taoist Cao, are you alright?
I don't need your help...
Taoist Cao! Taoist Cao, wake up!
Taoist Cao!
Taoist Cao, you are awake.
Drink some water first.
Your head is heavily injured.
I was afraid that you wouldn't wake up.
I don't need it!
What are you doing? You don't know what's good or bad!
- Ying Ning, are you alright?- I'm fine. I'm fine.
I didn't beg you to save me.
You were the one who acted unnecessarily.
Ying Ning doesn't even blame you anymore for killing her mother, and instead has helped you.
You didn't just not appreciate her kindness, but you even scoffed at her.
You're returning kindness with hatred!
She is a demon and I am a human.
We are destined to be enemies!
He just got injured, and his body is not well.
It's normal for him to be upset. We should leave now and let him have some rest.
When I get better, I will leave this place
because I will not accept the kindness of a fox spirit.
That's okay. You can stay as long as you want.
Zi Fu, we shouldn't bother Taoist Cao when he's resting.
You...
Zi Fu,
are you mad?
That Taoist is so gloomy. He is not grateful. He is not a good person.
Why are you protecting him?
Priest Cao was a powerful Taoist before.
Now he has not only lost his powers, unable to protect himself,
but has also been saved by the fox spirit that he hates. It's normal that he is upset.
Ying Ning, I really don't understand why are you saving him.
I can't let someone be beaten to death.
I've decided to forget about the past and live happily with you.
If I can forgive your mother, then it must reasonable for me to forgive Taoist Cao.
I should treat everyone the same, right?
Ying Ning, you are very kind.
I'm the opposite, there's still hatred in me.
Thank you for your kindness and pureness.
Being able to marry you is worth 3 generations of luck.
Then you must be good to me, make me happy everyday.
Okay. The most important job of Wang Zi Fu, this lifetime,
is to make Ying Ning happy.
I've been defeated and now I'm just an ordinary human.
I didn't expect Madam to come and see me.
Taoist Cao,
there is no need for courtesy between the two of us.
I just want to know, did you came to our house for Ying Ning?
You should ask your son and your daughter-in-law.
I didn't come to your house out of my own will; they forced me to stay.
Taoist Cao,
I don't believe that you have lost your powers, unable to do anything. That's just nonsense!
Madam Wang, look at me.
This leg of mine is unable to walk.
How can I have powers?
To tell you the truth, I don't even want you to see me in this situation!
Alright then, I won't force you to admit it.
Taoist Cao, if you want to catch Ying Ning,
let me tell you, I won't be in your way.
Madam Wang, there is one thing that I don't understand,
Ying Ning has already married into the Wang family, she won't hurt Zi Fu,
and she is willing to forgive you for what you did in the past.
Then why are you still insisting on getting rid of her?
It's impossible for me to forgive her.
And it's even more impossible for me to forgive her mother.
I remember very clearly... I remember even to this very day,
how she took Qin Sheng away.
My sister was miserable her entire life.
She forgives me?
She is acting like she's been kind so that I will apologize to her.
No way. I didn't do anything wrong.
Demons are demons. Demons hurt people.
Taoist Cao, you know that Zi Fu is my only son.
I cannot let that demon take my son away.
Then I wish what you want comes true, Madam Wang.
However, I really can't help you now.
Even if nobody helps,
I will destroy Ying Ning.
Time to eat, everyone! Come here to eat!
-Time to eat, let's go.-Let's go and eat.
Nobody hurries when it's time to work.
When it's time eat, they're gone like that!
A bunch of fatheads!
A good dog doesn't block the way, why are you here?
You keep barking. I'll teach you a lesson.
I tell you, I'll beat you to death.
I'll beat you to death, then you won't bark anymore.
I'll beat you! I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you! I'll beat you to death and you won't bark anymore!
Mother-in-law, stop beating him! Stop beating him, Mother-in-law!
-Please show some mercy!-Get away from me!
You beast, have no manners! I will beat you to death!
You ungrateful thing! I give you food and drinks, and you want to bite me?
I will beat you to death!
Before you hurt me, I'll beat you to death!
Beat you to death! Beat you to death!
You want to hurt me? I'll beat you to death!
I'll beat to death today!
I'll take you life! I...
Ying Ning!
ZiFu.
Zi Fu! Zi Fu!
Ying Ning, it's me! It's Zi Fu!
Stop it!
Ying Ning!
Ying Ning! Ying Ning!
Ying Ning, are you awake now?
It's okay.
Ying Ning, have a cup of tea.
Zi Fu, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your mother.
I know. It's because of my mother
who is trying to make trouble.
-Sorry about that.-I really don't know when your mother can accept me.
I believe, that after some time, she will definitely accept you!
And, there's another thing...
How come your power is so strong now?
I'm not sure. I saw DaHuang earlier being beaten so hard.
Anger rose inside of me and suddenly I couldn't control myself anymore.
There's a force that seems to be hidden in my body.
Whenever I become angry, it's released.
That's too dangerous.
Think about it. If this force is controlled by your emotions,
then when your emotions become out of control,
this force will also be out of control.
If this force hurts other people, the result could be disastrous.
Then what should we do? I don't feel it normally,
so I cannot control it.
As long you can control your emotions, your power will not explode.
I really hate that I did not have a knife in my hand.
If I had a knife in my hand,
I would just kill, kill, kill,
kill her!
But I actually feel that fortunately you didn't have a knife in your hand.
What do you mean?
Just like you said, Ying Ning suddenly had incredible strength when she got angry.
You were right in the middle of it. If ZiFu did not help you at that time,
it would be hard to imagine what could have happened.
You might have been the one who got hurt if you had a knife in your hand.
That's right.
But Taoist Cao has lost his power and other Taoists are not powerful enough.
I don't want the demon Ying Ning to appear in front of Zi Fu.
Aunt, if you don't hold your temper in check, then you won't be able to succeed.
We are better off staying calm. Ying Ning is a demon.
How can we possibly fight against her?
You mean I have to tolerate her?
You have to even if you don't want to. Ying Ning and Zi Fu are inseparable right now.
If you really want to chase Ying Ning away or kill her,
then Zi Fu will hate you. That's not what you want.
Right.
I also think that you shouldn't pick on Ying Ning too much.
If Ying Ning can't change her demonic nature, can't eliminate her inner evil, then Zi Fu will definitely notice that.
Then he can abandon Ying Ning himself.
This way, you can achieve two things with one move. Your relationship with Zi Fu won't be hurt,
and you can also get rid of her.
There are many women in the city who bought the powder...
made by our family. They immediately attracted the opposite sex,
and even made them abandon their wife and children.
You put a spell in the flower powder!
If she gets to control you,
wouldn't everything you have, including Mister Wang, be taken over by her?
Taoist Cao, kill this demon for me!
If you want to get rid of her,
I'm afraid the price is going to be
unbelievable.
No, you can't, Ying Ning!
Ying Ning!
I don't care what the price is! I want you to take Ying Ning's life!
