Three Heroes and Five Gallants
Episode 38
If you were able to find Yuehua now,
how sure are you that she will let you stay by her side
and be her slave?
Not even a bit of assurance.
Then why must you do this?
I just don't care anymore.
I'm just like this. For reasons that I firmly believe,
I'll fight to the end!
Even if there's only a one hundredth chance, I will still make 100 times effort.
You...
I already discussed this matter with Fifth.
He totally agrees with my opinion.
Right now, His Majesty is not willing to accept defeat.
If we are able to locate Yuehua,
at the same time we find her, it's like bringing His Majesty's
claws to her side.
Then that can't be. That totally can't be allowed.
Exactly. Do you know
she's already deeply angered His Majesty.
His Majesty has sent out the order, within a month, we must capture Zhan Zhao,
and return the imperial robe and accessories.
If we can't, us and Magistrate won't be able to keep our lives safe.
You should know, Magistrate offended His Majesty because of us,
We must not give him new troubles anymore.
Heaven!
Why are you so unfair to me and Yue Hua?
[Duke of Changsha Zhao Yu]
Greetings, Your Highness.
What is the situation now in Nanyang?
Resplying to Duke, the martial arts competition
is already being diligently organized by Dongfang Ming.
He has already invited martial arts masters
who are famous to come and join.
I was thinking that he surely will be able to recruit the heroes of the world to our side.
You've worked hard.
Rest a few days.
Your Highness, your servant has another matter to report.
Speak.
While I was at Nanyang,
I bumped into the very famous Jianghu Southern Hero Zhan Zhao.
Zhan Zhao?
I've heard about him.
How is this person's ability?
His ability is so good. He is way above Dongfang Ming.
Good. Being able to be called the Southern Hero,
even if this person
is not good, he won't be bad to a great degree.
Your Highness, even though Zhan Zhao's martial arts skill is quite high,
But in Jianghu, his reputation is not that good.
Why? Is he a disloyal ingrate?
Quite the opposite. This person if very loyal.
Then how come his reputation isn't good?
He's very lustful.
I'm also very lustful.
Because of his lust for sex, he has committed several murder crimes
and was wanted by the government.
He previously sought refuge with Chancellor Pang.
After Pang Yu got into trouble, he then returned to being a wanderer.
Someone who has nowhere to go,
will treasure chances that was not easily obtained.
Duke is so brilliant. Just to be able to join Duke and show his loyalty,
that Zhan Zhao
prepared a big meeting present for Duke.
He returned to the Eastern Capital, infiltrated the Palace,
and was able to stole the Emperor's imperial robe and accessories.
What?
He stole little emperor's imperial robe and accessories?
Once Duke starts your uprising, this imperial robe and its accessories,
will be very useful.
Outrageous! Totally outrageous!
The King of Sixia wrote me a letter.
He must prepare for at least 6 or more months before he can start a war with the government.
You all, no matter what you will be doing from now on,
you must make sure that my true motive will not be exposed!
With this preposterous thing that he did,
isn't that inviting trouble to me?
I wasn't able to think up to this level.
No. You must not let Zhan Zhao enter Changsha City.
Go find him some place and let him hide.
When we need him, we'll just call for him.
Duke, if that's the case,
I fear that the nation's heroes
will lose their confidence on Duke.
Then how do you think should we handle this?
Duke, if the Emperor learns that the imperial robe and accessories are missing,
he surely will assign Kaifeng Court to investigate it.
When that time comes, Duke can let Zhan Zhao
bring the imperial robe and accessories first to Nanyang and let Dongfang Ming take care of it first.
Attract the Emperor and Kaifeng Court's attention
to Nanyang.
It's indeed a good plan. Let Dongfang Ming and those Lulin heroes
hold off those Kaifeng Court rats.
This way, I do indeed get to have more precious time.
Duke is brilliant.
As long as Duke haven't publicly rebelled,
then that Emperor won't be able to find any reasons to use his military against you.
The only thing that he can most likely do
is just to send the rats of Kaifeng Court
to assassinate Duke.
Assassinate me?
You...immediately go to Nanyang.
Tell Dongfang Ming to eliminate
those rats of Kaifeng Court for me.
I will immediately set out to go to Nanyang.
Come back.
You must remember.
You must not let Dongfang Ming and Zhan Zhao know my real intentions.
I will remember.
Your Majesty, Divine Eagle Emissary sent a message.
Duke of Changsha ordered the leader of Fort Golden Money Dongfang Ming to set up a martial arts competition
to recruit martial arts masters in the world. Zhan Zhao stole the imperial robe and accesories
and gave it to Dongfang Ming to protect.
He has joined Duke in secretly planning to rebel.
On the second day after Virtuous Brother was able to
steal this imperial robe and accessories from the Palace,
Duke has already received the news.
That fast?
Sending messages thru doves is of course fast.
Looks like the whole capital is filled with Duke's spies.
I'll share some secrets with you.
A half of the government's main ministers are allied with Duke.
With this good situation, it would be hard for Duke's plan not to be a success.
Since Virtuous Brother was able to do a great achievement this time, Duke has already said
that he will confer you as governor of Liangzhou.
Thank you to master's excessive grace.
But this provincial governor position is conferred by Duke.
That's why, you can't publicize it first for now.
This I understand.
Right now, what Duke lacks are people.
That's why Duke had ordered you to conceal your identity and go under cover in Jianghu.
Contact the different Jianhu people with lofty ideals to join us in fulfilling our grand plan.
The Duke had said that this provincial position of yours now
is the most basic position.
If you are able to get a lot of heroes and warriors,
your official position will change based on the number of recruits you have.
I will surely do my best
to repay Duke's debt of gratitude for being my patron.
Virtuous Brother, just leave this imperial robe and accessories here in my place for the meantime.
I'll definitely take it to Changsha in behalf of Virtuous Brother some other day
and offer it to Duke.
Thank you Virtuous Brother Dongfang
Right now, these five rats have publicly joined the government.
They have become a common enemy of Lulin.
That's why virtuous brother must use any means to spread this news in Jianghu
so as to gather more men with lofty ideals
to help us eliminate our common enemy.
I will definitely follow brother's orders.
Brother Sheng.
Fifth Sir came so quickly.
After I heard your news, how could I delay?
I ahd something to tell you.
Please tell.
Do you know about White Butterfly, Yan Fei?
The Jianghu notorious rapist?
He's quite famous.
It's a shame he hasn't met me.
Last time, the person who killed Ji Saihua's parents wasn't Zhan Zhao,
it was an impersonator of Zhan Zhao, Yan Fei.
Really?
No wonder Second Sister-in-law is suspicious about why Zhan Zhao's arrow
had been covered with the poison of their Ji family.
And there was this time at the Yuncui temple
She fought Zhan Zhao with Fourth brotherand he seemed not to be the same one from last time.
Actually the real Zhan Zhao,
Is hiding in Pang's mension.Secretly protecting Pang Ji.
This time, the one sneaking into theimperial palace was Zhan Zhao.
But the one who was raping women at Sanghua Town
and also the one who killed Saihua's parents at Ehfeng Fort
is Yan Fei.
Then I don't understand
Since Zhan Zhao is at the Chancellor's Residence,
then why did Yan Fei have to disguise as Zhan Zhao and go to Sanghua Town?
This Zhan Zhao is initially Kaifeng Court's man.
Pang Ji couldn't trust Zhan Zhao,
so he hired Yan Fei to impersonate Zhan Zhao
with the aim of ruining Zhan Zhao's reputation.
But the main goal
is to let Yan Fei's fake Zhan Zhao
to kill Han Zhang,
and to make the four rat brothers seek revenge on Zhan Zhao
Forcing Zhan Zhao to side with the Chancellor and have no other retreat path.
Then where is Zhan Zhao now?
Zhan Zhao went into the Palace and stole the imperial robe and accessories
to serve as his meeting gift in joining Duke of Changsha.
Then what about that son of a b*itch Yan Fei?
I've heard from people at the Chancellor's Residence that Yan Fei
I've already found out
that the notorious Yan Fei of Jianghu
has already changed his name to Yuchi Liang since many years ago.
He built his mansion and farm lands at Piba Ravine
in Lu-an Mountain at Tuzhou.
A year ago, Tai Shi Fu spent a great amount of money to have him pose as Zhan Zhao.
He initially committed heinous crimes at Sanghua Town.
Raping and killing women and then afterwards, murdering the family of old hero Ji.
Pang Ji felt that he has revealed too much of himself so he ordered him to go back to Piba Ravine.
Magistrate, I'm willing to go to Tuzhou's Piba Ravine to arrest Yan Fei
and eliminate this criminal for the government.
Magistrate, I'm also willing to go. I want to go together with Fifth Little Brother.
It's enough for me to go alone.
He's very formidable, Fifth Little Brother.
Master Xian, I am willing to go with them.
Master, I'll go as well.
Okay. You can all go. I won't go.
No, Fifth...you...
Magistrate, my Second Brother and his wife
has a very big grievance with that Yan Fei. It's a grievance about the death of their father.
If he knows of this
he will drop everything to go there and exact revenge.
Yan Fei is really not average.
You must be extremely careful.
Otherwise, you won't kill the tiger, but be killed by it.
Hence, I think that...it's still better that Second Master Han don't go.
Fifth Brother, did you hear? That Yan Fei is unbelievably conniving!
Fighting with this kind of person, we not only have to use force, we also must fight him with intelligence.
Although Yan Fei is mighty, he's not a formidable tiger.
Magistrate, I'm willing to give you my word that
if I don't catch Yan Fei alive, I'm willing to accept any punishment fro Magistrate.
Even if it's that way, you still must not go alone.
- Captan Bai- Yes.
I order you to bring with you an arrest warrant and go to Tuzou.
Ask the local government to send you men to arrest Yan Fei. You must not fail.
- I abide.- Captain Jiang.
I'm here.
I order you to help Captain Bai in arresting Yan Fei.
I will abide!
Yu!
Fifth Little Brother, can you see the city gates already?
Later, let's first enter the city and go the local court's official.
Let's submit the official documents first before thinking about our next move.
- No need. Let's directly go to Lu-an Mountain.- Ha?
- Didn't Magistrate say that we--- The soldiers are outside.
Isn't it we can choose not to follow the orders?
Fifth Little Brother, this Yan Fei really have strong martial arts skills.
If we let him escape again this time, it will be really hard to catch him again.
Fourth Brother, stop boosting the morale of others and reducing our courage.
Fifth Little Brother, it's not that I'm boosting their morale.
That Yan Fei will always leave a white butterfly in all his crimes.
For so many years, the government and the Lulin people can't do anything against him.
It proves that he really have skills.
If you're that afraid of him,
then just stay here at Tuzhou and I'll go alone.
This is not...this is not about winning or losing.
Don't you understand? We are here to arrest him
and no to win him over a duel.
This Yan Fei...if he can't win you, he can run. That light martial arts skills of his,
I was able to see it with my own eyes.
Our situation now is already very awkward.
If we still call government officers to assist us, think about it,
how will those Jianghu people think about us?
We will become the one we used to hate the most, an official's commissioned dog.
You are indeed reasonable. Then what you want to do is...
I've already thought about it.
Let's first catch Yan Fei and then go find Zhan Zhao
to get the imperial robe and accessories back.
And then let's directly report the completion of our tasks
and leave Kaifeng Court. Go back to our chivalrous way of life.
Actually, I also don't want to be an official's commissioned dog. So annoying.
Fine. Anyway, Magistrate did say before we left that
you will be the leader in this operation. I'll listen to your decisions.
Then let's go to Lu-an mountain and check on Yan Fei's whereabouts.
If he is at home, let's directly enter his villa and arrest him.
Enough already. You Fifth, still that hasty attitude.
What's that?
You...do you know where Lu-an Mountain is?
That villa thing, do you know where it is?
Do you know where Yan Fei is hiding now?
We don't know the answer to any of my questions
and you plan to just arrest him? From what I can see,
let's better plan this again.
Then you tell me what to do
How about this. Let's first look for a place to rest.
Tomorrow, I'll go out and put on a disguise to gather some information.
After I've gotten hold of the situation,
let's then shoot the arrow on the target.
Let's not enter the city anymore.
Let's find a roadside inn instead. There will be fewer people there.
Okay. I'll listen to you.
Jia! Jia! Jia!
Rich landowner.
What information have you gathered?
The Pang Residence's main butler told me to tell you that
there will be someone coming here to look for you.
What kind of people?
He said that it's...Kaifeng Court's five rats?
Kaifeng Court?
How did Kaifeng Court know about my whereabouts?
Unless...Pang Ji wants to...kill me after he's done using me?
Landowner, what did you say?
Nothing.
Go to the backyard and tell Changshou to come here.
I have something to instruct him.
Yes.
Amitayus Buddha.
This brother, hello.
Daoist priest, hello.
This brother, may I ask if this is Lu-an Mountain?
Right. This is indeed Lu-an Mountain.
Then that's great. Would you know where Piba Ravine is?
Here. Just go straight. You'll see the opening of the ravine.
And then just walk 3 miles more and you'll arrive at Piba Ravine.
There's a Sanqing Temple at Piba Ravine, right?
Sanqing Temple? Never heard.
That can't be, brother.
My Teacher told me that...there's a Sanqing Temple here.
My Teacher said that before he died.
He was very sure of it when he said that there is a Sanqing Temple in Piba Ravine.
How long have your Teacher died?
Maybe around 20 years already.
Twenty years?
I can't remember about the things twenty years ago already.
But that landowner Yuchi,
only came to the ravine 3 years ago and built his villa.
I understand already.
This landowner Yuchi demolished the Sanqing Temple.
That's a big crime, a big crime...
No. When that landowner Yuchi built his villa,
there was already no one staying in that area.
Thank you, brother.
Hmp...
Landowner.
What news did you get?
Changxi reported that a traveling Daoist priest has entered the ravine.
Daoist priest?
Right. Around 30 years old, not that tall.
Watch him closely.
Yes.
One we enter the ravine tonight,
go to the back and wait for him at the lake side.
I believe that Yan Fei will escape through water.
By that time, let's have a "catching the white butterfly with water".
Fifth Little Brother, I personally went to observe the terrain today.
The terrain of Piba Ravine is very complicated.
We are just two people to begin with
and we'll still act separately? Isn't that thinning out our strength?
You just said this morning that you'll listen to me.
I...did I say it?
Fine. Then what if they don't escape via the water and went to the mountains?
He won't. Yan Fei won't dare.
Because he doesn't know how many we are.
Just two people?
Right. It seems that Daoist priest is just a young lad in disguise.
He must have lost his mother when he was young and wasn't able to drink a lot of milk.
When he grew up, he wasn't able to have abundant food.
Even if you let him wear good clothes,
he's still a beggar.
But the young lad behind me
is quite clean and looks decent.
Hmp.
Is Landowner Yuchi around?
Where did our precious guest come from coming this late at night?
Why not come in and have a seat?
White Butterfly Yan Fei.
Never thought that you're able to hear this.
Yan Fei, stop acting so mystifying already.
Do you know that
all your crimes have already been put down into file by Kaifeng Court?
Pang Yu has already been sentenced and Pang Ji has already confessed.
While today, I was tasked by Magistrate Bao
to especially arrest you and take you back to Kaifeng Court.
Oh, right. What did you say earlier?
You were tasked by Kaifeng Court's Bao Heizi?
When did you start to work for the government too
and became their lackeys?
When a rat comes out of his hole, he might be able to steal stuffs.
But to arrest a person, isn't that not knowing one's limitation?
Ah!
Oh, my...
Little fresh meat...
Setting up traps...
The ending of a tired old used to be strong horse. It's final struggle.
The rat at the back has already landed on my trap.
Let's see how long you'll be able to hop around.
Yan Fei, your villa has already been surrounded by us.
Today, you won't be able to escape even if you have wings.
Too exaggerated.
It's more like you and that sickly rat doing a pincer attack, right?
Totally surrounded? Who are you scaring?
Bai Yutang, I'm going to be lenient.
I'm going to make you live today.
Hurry and escape. Isn't escaping
a strong ability of you rats?
Who are you?
I am Zhan Zhao. It was you who was misusing my name
and committed rapes and crimes at Sanghua town.
Even killing your Teacher and Teacher Mother.
Today, I'm going to take you to the officials to clear my name.
You can't blame all this matter to me.
It was Chancellor Pang's idea.
Chancellor Pang?
Right. Zhan Zhao,
since you're already working under Chancellor Pang, then you shouldn't involve yourself in this trouble.
Although you allied yourself with Chancellor Pang,
but he was always worried
that this matter is just a scheme by you and Bao Heizi of getting yourself injured to win the enemy's trust.
That's why he sent me to Sanghua Town to do bad things and destroy your reputation.
This way, you can only stay under Chancellor Pang's protection
until the end of your life, until you lost your purpose.
Good. Then the more I have the reason to catch you.
Weren't you hit by his dart?
How come you're fine?
Why will I be hit by the dart? Last time, I've already learned my lesson.
That's why this time, I'm already prepared.
I've already caught it while still at mid-air.
Since you've caught the dart, why did you still pretend to be dying?
I was trying to lure him to come near me.
How could I have known? But now, really great. He has escaped.
You could have thought about it first. How could I allow him to hit me that quickly?
I'm not talking to you anymore. Hurry and chase him.
Hey, wait.
I saw him enter the villa.
The door is opened wide. There must be a trap.
- Then...- Hey, where's Master Fourth?
- Fourth Brother...- Oh, no!
Fourth Brother!
- Fifth Little Brother!- Stay right there!
Lord Yue!
Criminal! You listen well.
Our landowner has said
that if you dare to come near us,
we'll then immediately let this bad guy be nailed to death.
- Master Fifth...- Stop right there!
If you dare to walk forward 5 more steps,
I'll immediately let go!
Master Fifth...
Stop right there! Let me tell you.
You've already used up your five steps.
If you still dare to move 1 step forward, I'm really letting go of my hold.
We really can do what we said.
We still knows martial arts. If you won't listen to us,
then don't blame our hands for being heartless.
Everyone!
We are not bad people.
We are Kaifeng Court's guards.
From the government?
I'm spitting on you! Government officials are more cruel than criminals.
We all utterly detest government officials.
Listening to your guys speech, you are not from here, right?
Actually, we are orphans from Chenzhou.
Our relatives were all killed by those government officials.
It was landowner who took us in.
He gave us food to eat and even clothes to wear.
That's why we were able to live until today.
Then do you know that we were the one who arrested that evil person Pang Yu
who entrapped your family and loved ones?
You're lying aren't you?
We just went back to the city two days ago.
I heard from people there that it was someone named Bao Qingtian who killed him.
We are Kaifeng Court's Magistrate Bao's men.
This person beside me is Captain Bai who personally arrested Pang Yu.
While the one being hanged by you guys
is the Captain Jiang who saved several women inside the Royal Family Garden.
Is my sister within the people you guys saved?
Your sister?
What is the name of your sister?
Her name is Li Xioulian.
Is she that one with black hair, squash-like face, pointed chin?
Right! In the corner of her mouth,
there's a black mole!
What do you know? That's called eating mole.
Your sister said that since she was little,
she always give you all the good food.
Of course, I'm an only son.
It's because of that
your sister kept saying that she's going to find you right after we came out of there.
Then where's my sister?!
Hey! Pull the rope!
Stabilize.
Stabilize it.
Make it stable.
I'm just so light.
Can you guys pull on the rope more tightly?
- Sorry. Sorry.- Pull it more tightly.
Sorry.
So sorry. So sorry.
Let me tell you. I heard that your sister went to find a relative.
Some uncles or something.
Cousin uncle!
Right. Right. Right. Cousin Uncle. Indeed, it's a cousin uncle.
Your sister is currently staying at your cousin uncle already.
Sister! Sister!
Stop crying already! You even believe his nonsense?!
But what he said...what he said all matches up!
You stupid!
They are here to arrest landowner.
They are all bad people!
Bad people?
Aren't you being too naive?
- You landowner--- I think that this is...
I think that there's a misunderstanding behind this.
Your landowner thought that we were here to arrest him
so he escaped.
We actually are just here to verify some matters with him.
Matters? What matters?
When Pang Yu was still at Chenzhou, he confiscated a lot of land titles.
We heard that these titles were in a box.
But we've already searched the whole Royal Garden and still didn't found this box.
That's why we want to ask your landowner if he saw this box.
Our house's title was also stolen from us!
That's why, the more we have to find these land titles and give them back to the people. Right?
That's right. That's right.
Someone told me that he previously went to Chenzhou and even entered the Royal Family Garden.
That's why, we just wanted to ask him if he has saw this box or if it's with him.
If it's with him, we'll ask him to return it to us.
This box means nothing to him
but for the citizens of Chenzhou, it's their life.
Why didn't you guys say so earlier?!
Don't be agitated. You already believe what they are saying?
This thing requires evidences to prove it. Get it?
That's right.
How about this, send someone to ask your landowner to come out.
If the box is not with him,
we will immediately leave and will never bother you guys anymore.
Changfu, you go.
Changlu, you go.
- You go.- Okay.
You guys are not minding me anymore?
Pull a little tightly!
Did you notice it? This is Yan Fei's delaying tactics.
He has already escaped into the mountains. It will impossible to catch up with him now.
That's why, we can only first save our people.
Landowner! Landowner!
Landowner! Landowner! Landowner!
Landowner, where are you?!
Oh, no! Oh, no! Landowner is gone!
Changfu, Changxi, Landowner is gone.
Landowner is gone!
- Where did landowner go?- I don't know.
Changfu, what should we do now?
How would I know?
Don't panic. Don't panic.
I think that your landowner must have misunderstood us.
He was afraid that we were here to arrest him so he went to hide.
Landowner left so hurriedly and he didn't even informed us.
How about this. I have an idea.
You guys first bring our friend down.
We will then immediately leave. Once your landowner returns, tell him to look for us in the city.
Then if you are just lying and fooling us, won't we be falling into your trick?
Then you guys tell me what to do. You guys think of an idea.
Changfu, what do we do?
How long do you guys plan to let us wait here?
Is it 1 or 2 days or 3 or 4 days?
Let me tell you guys this.
If my brother dies today,
I'll immediately drag you four to Kaifeng Court
to be executed with the dragon or tiger guillotine.
Once it falls, blood will all spurt out.
That's right. By that time, not only will you not see your sister,
you will also not be able to get your land title.
Your family's land will then become an owner less barren land.
By that time, it will then be confiscated by the government.
Changfu, how about, we...
Let's let him go already.
What if they are lying? What will we do then?
Changfu, Changfu, I miss my sister.
Hey, let me say this. Gou Wa...
I'm not called Gou Wa. My name is Gou Dan!
Oh, sorry, sorry.
You are called Gou Dan, Gou Dan. I remembered it wrongly.
Don't you want to go find your sister?
Changfu, let them go already.
I want to get my house's land back.
I miss my sister.
That's right. You go find your sister. Let me down.
Then what if...he is...
saying lies. What should we do?
If you guys still are not at ease, I can swear by the Heaven.
If you guys let our friend go and I still went after you,
then I'll be hit by lightning and won't have a good death.
He had already made an oath.
That's right, Changfu.
Changfu, let his go already.
Then let's slowly let him down.
Slowly. Slowly.
We've already let him go so let's just listen to them, okay?
That's right. That's right.
That Royal Uncle Pang that should be hacked to pieces
has caused my family so much tragedy.
Fine already. Later, we will make a letter.
Go to Chenzhou's local court
and look for Justice Wen Yanbo. He will take care of things for you.
Say, guys...
can you all talk sitting down?
Oh, sit. Sit down.
It's better to just stand. We're used to it.
Fine. Fine. Fine. You guys do as you please.
I beg you guys.
Can you please find your landowner first and find that box?
Our landowner frequently travels.
Sometimes, he doesn't come back for 3 to 5 months.
Then where does he usually go?
You guys surely know what friends have he made?
This...I'm also not sure of it.
I just know that the Liu Family Estate that's 20 miles from here
has a landowner named Liu Wang.
He and our landowner are friends.
Liu Wang?
I've fought with Yan Fei before so I know that his martial arts skills are formidable.
I heard that there will be only the two of you who will come here so I secretly followed.
If you guys can catch Yan Fei, then that's fine.
If you can't,
I can also help.
Last night, Master Fifth had to travel far
while that Yan Fei was just waiting there for his exhausted enemies
so you guys ended up in a draw. Or else...
Ms. Yue, that...
where did we stop are talk earlier?
You...what do you want us to do?
Master Fourth and Master Fifth, go to the inn and wait for me there.
Wait for you? Where are you going?
I'll go to the Liu Family Estate to check on the situation.
That's too dangerous. Let me go with you.
No way. Your foot is already injured. Who will take care of you?
It's fine. This is just superficial injury. My bones and joints are still very good.
Let me tell you a secret. I have excess of skin but less flesh.
This minor injury will be gone after 1 to 2 days.
In such situations, it would be more disadvantageous if more people go.
Yan Fei has very good martial arts and he even uses poison darts. He's hard to deal with.
That's why, I'm not going there to fight him
but just to gather information.
In the end, I still need the help of you guys for us to succeed.
Okay then. Ms. Yue be careful on your travel.
Master Fifth, be careful too.
Be a little more careful.
Jia!
Fifth Little Brother, did you see that? That's how heroines conduct themselves.
- You're sure that there's only one person?- I'm sure. There's only one person.
He's carrying a sword and even asked for directions from the boat rower Liu Laosan at the mouth of the Liang (Two) River.
Got it. You can leave.
Yes.
Little Brother, for them to go to Liu Family Estate, they have to pass by the mouth of Liang River.
Looks like this time, there is really just one of them.
Bai Yutang has been scared to death by me.
Jiang Ping's foot got injured.
The one who can still come to Liu Family Estate will surely be Zhan Zhao.
Little Brother, what's your plan?
What does Brother Ren thinks?
With my large estate, hiding 1 or 2 person is no problem.
If little brother wants to hide for a while,
temporarily moving is not a bad idea.
Brother Ren, Duke of Changsha has already given me the position provincial governor of Tuzhou.
And I've already suggested to Duke of Changsha to make Brother Ren the vice governor.
Brother Ren, don't you plan to achieve merit for Duke earlier?
Merit? How?
Catch Zhan Zhao then offer him to Duke.
That Zhan Zhao is one of the three heroes. He has reat martial arts. Catching him will be hard.
It's easier to dodge a spear in the open but a hard to avoid a stab in the dark.
Even though Zhan Zhao is ferocious but as long as we planned it well,
we still have the chance to catch him.
If he isn't delayed, he should be here soon.
Brother Ren, Zhan Zhao of course will not come here at broad daylight.
He surely will visit at night.

♫ How I want to go back to your side ♫
♫ If ever time will stop at this day ♫
♫ will it be forever? ♫
♫ Even though they say that love is hard to be made into reality ♫
♫ Willing to take a step back to fulfill it ♫
♫ Those compromising words ♫
♫ I’ll keep them for you ♫
♫ You said that rather than crying til ones eyes are red, better to just think and miss me ♫
♫ I’m afraid that yearning cannot cope with the changes of time ♫
♫ Gossips spread for one year ♫
♫ Forever seems like too far away ♫
♫ Rather than looking at your back slowly getting far, better to just think and miss you ♫
♫ Learned to wipe my tears dry after turning around ♫
♫ If there’s a Heaven, then the love, hate, and embrace of the past are rubbed to become ♫
♫ one’s heart’s callus.
