[Theme Song - We Are One]
♫Bleak winds roar in the wilderness♫
♫Codness numbs the senses♫
♫The haze of obscurity haunts our path♫
♫Darkness falls upon us♫
♫Let pain pervade our flesh♫
♫Let cold congeal our blood♫
♫Let havoc crush us down to the ground♫
♫But we will still be one♫
The legend of demons is considered nonsense in the human world.
However, for a few people, it is a lifetime dedication.
In the year of Tong Zi, a scholar accidentally saw a demon in Guang Xi.
He felt that it was unbelievable and thus gathered a group of like-minded friends,
and they went to Chang Bai Mountain to look for demons.
In the end, they died on the way.
When their bodies were found,
their bodies were covered with all sorts of strange wounds.
The wounds did not seem like they were created by animals or humans.
Afterwards, there were many people such as students again.
However, no one ever found any traces of demons.
Nearly half a century later, are there still people looking for demons?
What do you think?
Qing Cheng,
asking you to go shopping with me,
it is not to order you about. If I want to order people around, I have plenty of servants at home to order around.
You and your small family can't compare to our big family.
In terms of marrying a wife, it is about filial piety and respect.
When a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law go out together, if the daughter-in-law should take good care of the mother-in-law,
then it shows how filial and cultivated the daughter-in-law is. Understand?
So, you shouldn't feel miserable or tired.
I am doing this for your own good.
Okay, I know. I will definitely work hard.
Good girl.
She can even endure this. I am impressed.
You just wait! I have many ways to trick a person!
Do you need anything, Madame?
Your company produced quite a number of makeup powder, right?
Qing Cheng, choose one. Let me try.
Okay.
What are you doing?!
These are all my newly purchased dresses. You'll dirty them if you place them on the ground!
But I only have two arms!
Think of a method. I trust you.
Alright!
You can't even hold the powders up properly! Stop trembling!
I am wearing a black dress. What if the powder falls on my dress?!
It can't be washed away!
Who is this?!
Where has she gone to?! This... this!!!
Stop pulling me! Let me go!
Good! You are not dead!
Leave with me, okay?
Where to?
Didn't you say that everyone has something they pursue in life? The one I pursue is YOU!
I want to be with you. I do not want to be separated from you!
I don't want to!
- Why? - I already have someone I like.
You have someone you like?
Is he as able as me?
This has nothing to do with your abilities.
How can that be?
Everyone will choose the best in this world, correct?
See there? All this land is mine.
Have you heard of the American bank Hua Qi?
I have lots of savings there and lots of checks.
As long as you want them, I can give them to you!
You Tou, that is not love.
Then, what is love?
See!
I am very strong. I can protect you!
No one will dare to bully you in your entire life!
These are not the main point!
Then, what is the main point?!
Say it and I'll do it!
Main point is not about you'll do it or not... It's...
whether you have feelings or not.
This woman! Why are you so hard to please?!
You must know... in this world, there is nothing I can't have!
As long as I want it,
you are mine!
Are you scared?
No, I'm not scared.
Because you are my friend. We've endured life and death together.
No matter what you are, I believe you will not force me.
In this life of mine,
I will only love him.
What is 'his' good?
This has nothing to do with 'good or not.'
Unlike you, he never gives me many promises
and he's not as capable as you,
but he loves me and I love him.
We are happy when we are together. That's enough.
Love? What is love?
Love is...
One day, you will understand. I have some matters to attend to... Talk to you later!
- Aunty! - So...!
I wondered why you disappeared.
You went to have a rendezvous with a man! If it was not for the powder trail, I wouldn't even known!
- Aunty, it's not like what you think... - What are you denying?
- I've caught you and you still want to deny it! Let's go and tell Ming Xia! - Aunty...!
What nonsense are you saying?!
- What are you doing?! - This woman is too despicable!
Always bully Qing Cheng. I tell you...
If you bully her again, I will not let you live in peace!
Aunty! Aunty!
Please wake up! Aunty!
Qing Cheng, I will not force you, but I want to tell you
I will also not give up on you.
I will go now and find the answer to what love is!
Aunty! Aunty!
You are mine!
What is he?
Why does he sprout wings?
But... these sort of wings look familiar.
I think I have similar wings like him.
Could it be...that I am like him?
Or maybe everyone when faced with crises,
they will also grow such wings?
Demon!
Aunty!
What's wrong, Aunty?
Qing Cheng, the man who spoke to you,
he suddenly sprouted a pair of big wings!
Qing Cheng, quickly report this to the police!
Quick! Get them to catch him!
Kill him with a gun! Quick go!
I cannot divulge You Tong's nature or there will be trouble!
Quickly go! Why are you still here?!
Are you dreaming, Aunty?
There's no demon.
Impossible! How can it be a dream?!
You saw it too, right?
I... I didn't see it!
Was it truly just a dream?
Yes, Aunty. You definitely dreamed it.
You were too tired from shopping and had a bad dream.
You just need to rest.
That's right... How can there be demons in this world?
Yeah.
But that dream was too real. I was scared!
I'll get a glass of water for you, Aunty.
Get some rest.
Why did I get such a weird dream?
I must be too tired.
I need to go see a doctor.
All of the hospital's funds have run dry and we still owe the bank a large sum of money.
Why?
I don't know. This is the decision of the Chairman.
My dad?
Recently, the hospital's business is good and we didn't invest in any new research.
Why does he need so much money for?
I don't know.
The loan duration is so short and the interest is so high!
We'll be in big trouble if we can't clear the loan.
I agree.
I'm telling you this because I was worried about it.
No.
I can't allow him to do as he likes.
I must get an explanation from him.
Dad!
I'm inside.
Dad!
Xue Wu, don't move!
Dad!
What are you doing? Quickly let me go!
Let me go!
Dad!
Don't move, Xue Wu!
What sort of nonsense experiment is this?
It's a secret for now.
But once I finish it, you'll realise how great I am!
You say this all the time but you've never succeeded!
You are belittling me again!
Alright! I'll stop belittling you. Let me ask you... What are you using this money on?
You borrowed so much. If we can't return the loan, we will be bankrupt!
This... is the product of an experiment from an American scientist, Mr. Smith.
A tracking device, ¥100,000 , is worth it!
What?!
You spent ¥100,000 on this thing?! Are you mad?!
What are we going to do if we can't return the loan? What's going to happen to the hospital?
I have my plans
Don't you worry, daughter!
If this experiment is successful,
our family... our hospital... all will be successful!
I will be world famous!
Yue'er!
You are back, Yue'er!
My dearest! You are back! Quick tell me! Have you found 'it'?
What?! You couldn't find it?!
What is the problem? Could it be that he had gotten rid of his scent?
What are you looking for, Dad?
Me? I... I'm looking for a 'thing'.
You'll understand later.
Let go of my hand!
I am the patient. What sort of attitude is this?!
You must follow our hospital's rules. You must line up.
Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me this way?!
I will not come to this sort of hospital if not for my personal doctor being overseas at the moment!
What a joke!
- Prof Zhang. - Do you know what medical ethics are? You are treating your patient poorly!
What are you looking at?!
Fang Ya Qing?
Jiang Bo Nie?
Fang Ya Qing? Why are you here?! Oh...my old schoolmate!
How can it be you?
How are you?
Why are you here?
Why are YOU here?
I've lived here for over 20 years now!
Look at you! Your hair has turned all white!
I'm not as handsome as when I was younger!
Yes. It has been over 20 years, but everyone says I still look the same.
Oh...y..yeah, you are still as beautiful as when you were younger.
You are still good with your words!
Let me introduce you... This is my daughter, Xue Wu.
This is Aunty Ya Qing
Hello, Aunty Ya Qing.
Hello!
Your daughter is so grown up!
Aunty Ya Qing, you don't look like my dad's classmate. You look so young!
Did you hear that? What a smart girl!
You can tell that she's highly educated and good with words. A woman from a good background!
You over-praised! I've never had any great achievements in my life,
but this 'product' is something I can be proud of!
Yes, even I like her!
Ya Qing,
what is wrong with you? Are you unwell?
Don't mention it. I can't sleep. Look at all the dark circles under my eyes!
Even those look nice!
Oh you.
Come into my office! I'll take a look for you!
It's wonderful to have a friend who can help,
unlike a certain someone...
who looked down on you!
Alright... Let's go!
Not only can I not sleep, but I have nightmares as well. How bothersome!
Ya Qing, this dream...
Usually it's a product of life experiences.
It's not a problem. Don't be afraid.
Not afraid? I don't understand... The man in my dreams had red eyes and black wings!
I am scared to death just thinking of it!
You are saying...
red eyes and black wings?!
Are you certain?
Is there someone next to you?
What are you doing?!
N... Nothing!
I just want to understand your dream.
So, I'll know how to cure it!
Continue...
I took Qing Cheng out shopping the other day but suddenly a man appeared and pulled her away!
When I ran after them, I saw that that person had red eyes and black wings!
I was so scared... I fainted!
But when I woke up, Qing Cheng told me that it was just a dream.
I think it must be a dream. How can a person sprout wings, right?
Who is that Qing Cheng?
Don't mention her!
She's my son's newest girlfriend.
Let me tell you...I dislike the whole of her!
I don't care! I will never acknowledge her!
What a waste of effort!
Th-That demon, is he in a good relationship with Qing Cheng?
Good!
So good that they seemed like a pair of lovers!
I'm thinking... Perhaps, I had such a dream because
I didn't want Qing Cheng to keep bothering my son.
This must be the case!
Oh no! Am I starting to hallucinate?!
Hallucination...!
No... How can YOU get hallucinations?!
Don't be scared, Ya Qing!
I'll prescribe...
sleeping pills for you.
So scary!
Sleeping pills!
Please cooperate, everyone!
Very good!
Very beautiful!
Let's change another angle...
One, two, three!
Very good! Very good!
For the next photo, please adjust your hand gesture.
Please lower the lighting a little.
Get ready! Please don't move! Look at the lady...
- Yes, her manner is good too.- Very beautiful.- That's right, she's so pretty.
There's nothing unusual here. Please stop looking.
Very good, stay in that position, your smile could be sweeter, one more picture.
- Okay, ready. - There's nothing to see here.
We are shooting an advert here.No wonder she's flower queen.
- Look at how charming she is.- I know, right.
I wonder if she has a boyfriend; if she's single.
- I would chase after her! - You were very good today.
Are you thinking of chasing after my girlfriend?
No, no.
Please move back. Thank you.
- Why did you come?- It's finished now.
- These are for you.- Let's go now
They smell so nice.
You're so beautiful. I am jealous even when other's take a tiny glance at you.
I don't want to lose you again like last time.
That made me very depressed.
Annoying.
Have you finished here?
Yes.
Then let's go, I'm taking you to eat Western food.
How did you know that I wanted to eat that?
Let's go, let's go!
Ming Xia.
What's wrong?
I feel really uncomfortable.
- What's wrong?- I can't breath.
What's wrong, Qing Cheng?
I'm so uncomfortable.
Qing Cheng!
What's wrong, Qing Cheng?
Someone help me! Is there a doctor here?
I'm here, I'm here!
- Professor Jiang!- Attorney General Ming.
Have a look, what's wrong with my girlfriend?
Okay, don't panic, don't panic! Let's go to my place!
Okay.
Let's go, go.
Hurry up, Professor Jiang!
So Professor Jiang.
What disease does she have?
It's not anything serious, is it?
She has been poisoned. This poison is very difficult.
But it's not like this poison cannot be cured.
But...
But what?
Do you need to use a lot of money?
Don't worry, I will pay for it.
It's not about money, it's about the medicine.
This poison can only be cured by a sea vegetable called Zi Rong Jin, it only grows in the Huangpu River.
It's very difficult to acquire this plant as it grows in deep depths.
To get it, you must dive into deep water.
There's a big risk of drowning.
But you will never be able to find something like that at the market.
What are we going to do then?
What's going to happen to my sister if she doesn't take this medicine?
She would remain unconscious.
Uncle.
I won't let anything happen to her.
Don't worry.
I will go and find Zi Long Jin now.
You should be careful.
Stop there.
Did you not hear what Professor Jiang said?
There's a high risk of drowning when looking for this plant!
It's too dangerous!
I can't allow you to go.
But I can't leave Qing Cheng unconscious like this.
You stop there!
Even if you want to save her,
there's no justification in exchanging one life for another!
You may not care about your life, but I do!
I am your mother. If anything happened to you,
I would rather die, too!
I think that it's too dangerous for you to go like this Attorney General Ming.
Just think about it.
If something were to happen, Qing Cheng would feel very guilty when she woke up.
I've got a suggestion.
How about.
We send some leaflets, saying that we're looking for this plant, someone might have some.
If no one has any, then you can go look for it.
That's right.
Listen to what Professor Jiang is saying, you shouldn't act on an impulse.
Then I will go and print the leaflets right now!
I will go with you.
Me, too.
Ya Qing,
don't worry.
I will keep an eye on him for you.
This is so troublesome.
Only Zi Rong Jin will make her wake up.
But only that one place has Zi Rong Jin.
You won't be able to run this time.
He's so handsome.
He's looking at me.
Who can tell me.
What is love?
If it's a good answer,
I will give you all this money.
Oh my god.
So much money.
I know, I know!
Come here.
Handsome.
You want to hear about love?
How embarrassing!
What about it?
Did you feel it?
Your lips are a bit oily
and they are scented.
This isn't love.
You see, I told you it wouldn't work.
How about this?
You give me money, I'll give you love.
I'll do it.
Whatever you want.
I will do everything you say.
Does this count as love?
Money has nothing to do with love.
Go away.
You go, you go!
Then what love do you want?
Do you want love like how a mother loves her child?
Holding you and drinking milk?
Go back.
What nonsense are you talking about?
No one knows what I want.
It doesn't matter, I'm leaving.
- Don't leave. - Hai Tang.
-Hai Tang.
- Hai Tang.
I told you before.
Don't stick your money on that poor student,
but you wouldn't listen.
Look now, he's flourishing
and he's rich.
Now he's married someone else.
Just continue crying!
My love for him is unrequited.
I'm happy as long as he's well.
How he treats me is not important.
Love is when you give your all and don't expect anything in return.
I can't talk about love with you, you don't even understand it.
I-
What you said was right.
I think I understand now.
Love is when you give your all.
I'll give you this money.
Thank you.
Don't leave! Sir!
Sir! Come again!
That's not a small sum!
Have a look at this. Thank you, thank you.
Have a look.
Boss, do you have any more chicken thigh?
- Of course, we have.- Hello, please have a look.- You won't get hungry from eating chicken thigh.
Have a look at this please.
Hello.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Thank you.
I finally know
what love is.
This, what is this?
Flower Queen Nie Qing Cheng.
Isn't that Qing Cheng?
What's happened to her?
What's the situation?
I can't say.
I don't know if she can wake up.
Qing Cheng.
Qing Cheng,
don't you worry.
I won't let anything happen to you.
I will go and find Zi Rong Jin now.
I will help you wake up
as soon as possible.
Wait for me.
I've finally captured you now.
Finally rewards.
All my hard work.
Don't move, don't move.
You shouldn't move around.
This object...
is made of very strong metal.
Right now, you won't be able to escape.
Even if you were an elephant.
You should just cooperate and come with me so I can study you.
I will look after you well.
I've caught you!
Who is it?
It's so late.
Professor Jiang!
Mr. President.
I haven't seen you in ages.
Hello, hello.
I have big news!
Come, sit down-sit down.
Big news.
I caught a demon.
You should immediately tell your reporters to come to my Ji Ren Hospital.
I will demonstrate to them
that in this world
demons really do exist.
You don't have a temperature do you?
Tempe-
Look here!
I'm so happy that I have a temperature!
I have a fever! A fever!
In these ten years.
I wrote a whole series of articles about demons,
but no one in the academic circle
believed anything!
They said I was delusional.
Am I delusional?
Ten years.
A whole ten years.
I could only stay in that small hospital
being a hospital director.
Being a doctor, treating patients.
I couldn't do any of the scientific research that I love;
the demon catching business that I love.
But now...
Now I can finally hold my head high.
I will tell them...
that I am not delusional.
I will have unlimited amounts of funding.
I am going to be rich!
Professor Jiang,
why are you running away so fast? Wait for me.Oh yes, yes.
I have to tell all the other journalists.
I have to tell them that this is the biggest news of Shanghai!
No.
The BIGGEST NEWS OF CHINAAAA!
I'm going to be so rich!
- I'm going to be so rich!- Wait for me!
Tell every reporter...
to gather at Jing Ren Hospital tomorrow morning.
They must acquire this headliner!
Dad!
It's time to eat your night snack.
Who are you?
Why are you trapped here?
You're a thief, aren't you?
Your face is very handsome.
Why would you do something like this?
My dad is famous for holding grudges.
It's unlucky for you to be caught by him!
Hey.
Stop hitting it.
If you keep hitting it, you'll die.
Oh my gosh.
What's happened to him?
What if he ends up dying?
Hey.
Are you okay?
Qing Cheng.
Why are you hurt?
It's so deep.
I'm fine.
You don't have to worry about me.
I'm just happy that you're awake.
Are you feeling better?
I'm feeling much better.
Ssh.
Oh dear.
I can't let them see me.
Catch him! There's a thief in the hospital!
Let's have a look here.
You're awake.
Yes.
There's a thief in the hospital. Doctor Xiao Jiang has been left unconscious.
Everyone is looking for the thief in the hospital.
Have you seen a strange person?
No, I haven't.
Then you stay here, don't run away. We will come back and check on you later.
Let's go.
What have you done?
Why are they treating you as a thief?
Do you trust me?
They aren't good people.
They locked me up so they could carry out experiments on me.
Then you should be careful.
Don't worry.
I will not only look after myself, but you, too.
Didn't you say that I didn't understand love.
I understand it now. Love is...
giving your all
without expecting anything in return.
This is for you.
What is this?
It's a whistle for you to use to call me.
I will appear in front of you anytime you blow it.
You Tong.
Don't worry.
In the future, I won't come and bother you.
As long as you're happy,
I am happy.
- Qing Cheng.- Xia.
You're awake!
You're finally awake! Is anywhere still uncomfortable?
No.
Did I sleep for a long time?
You slept for three days.
You scared me to death.
I'm sorry.
I will look after myself properly in the future.
I won't let you all worry anymore.
Silly.
Ladies and gentlemen,
let me tell you.
That you are going to be the first people to see a demon!
A miracle is about to happen.
Here you go!
Um.
Where's the demon? Where did he go?
Professor Jiang, where's the demon? We travelled a long distance to get here, you're not lying to us are you?
No, no, no! It was right here!
So is the demon invisible, and we all can't see him?
I gave up a special interview to come here, what is going on?
No, someone come!
Someone come! Someone come!
There's no demon? I can't see anything! He's lying to us!
Dad, what's happening here?
What's happening? I was just about to ask you! Where's the demon? Where did it go?
Are you taking about the thief who was stealing something?
Thief?
He was very cunning, he slipped away!
Slipped away!
That was a demon! A demon!
The thief was a demon?
Professor Jiang, are you getting confused, or are you just being delusional?
I heard before, that Professor Jiang was delusional. Turns out it's real!
No, no, no! Let me tell you there really are demons in this world!
Don't take pictures!
Don't take pictures of me!
♫Confused thoughts in my head, smiling whilst crying. ♫
♫Holding your hand through heaven and earth♫
♫Flowers blossom and the wind becomes drunk♫
♫Because you are beside me♫
♫The vastness of life is used to fall into your hands♫
♫The more I try, the more I cannot escape your gaze♫
♫The tenderness of this life is guarded in your heart♫
♫You have always and will be strong forever♫
♫You and I, this life, acting it out♫
♫Not caring about others' rampant laughter♫
♫Love and hate should be like this, don't think too much♫
♫I don't care if everything ends in desolation♫
♫I do not linger over the image of them laughing♫
♫I'm just crazy to find out if you're hurt again♫
♫They don't understand, this is how love should be♫
