The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Season 2
Episode 13
Zixuan. Help me go outside.
Miss, you're already like this. Where do you want to go?
Big Brother.
Pull the horse before it falls off the cliff. It is still not too late.
I'm begging you! Don't continue making mistakes!
Miss, what is it that you can't talk to My Lord properly?
Why must you torture yourself like this?
Miss! Don't stay here!
If you stay here, you'll die!
Miss, go back.
If Big Brother won't turn back,
I will not go back inside.
Miss! Miss!
Miss, wake up! Don't scare me!
Miss!
Miss, wake up! Miss!
-Miss! Miss!-Ah Li!
Wake up! Miss!
-Ah Li!-My Lord!
-Miss!-Ah Li!
Miss external body was completely bound by the cold wind.
Her heart and blood flow are very weak. Her fever is difficult to lyse.
Her old injury was not healed yet,
and now it has become worse instead.
What is the reason for this?
Doctor, my Miss wouldn't take her medicine.
My Lord, allow me to be frank.
The external injuries of Lady were not really serious.
If it is closely cared for, she will heal quickly.
Now, she won't take her medicine, and she has caught such a serious cold.
If this keeps going, even if Huato was alive, he couldn't save Miss.
My Lord, you must convince Miss to allow the treatment.
Only then will she recover from her illness.
I don't know why. I just feel like Ah Li is in trouble.
I think you're worrying too much.
Lu Xiao is Lu Li's biological brother!
As they say, a ruthless tiger will never eat his own children. No matter how ferocious a tiger is,
it wouldn't hurt its own child.
Besides, the entire Chang Le knows that Lu Xiao loves his little sister.
Based on ancient teachings, Lu Li will be alright.
What we can do now is to quickly discover the truth
and dissipate the misunderstanding. Only then can we really save Lu Li.
Don't you think so?
Brother Geng Ji's words make sense.
When Ah Li was young, she always asked me,
how our parents and family died.
I told her then that they died in an ocean storm.
I couldn't bear to let Ah Li know the truth.
I couldn't bear to break her heart.
Even more so, I couldn't bear to let her be the same as me,
bearing such heart rending hatred within ones shoulders.
Ah Li said that I am greedy for fame and benefits. That I have changed. I accept all of it.
But now that she is using her death to threaten me,
What should I do?
Father, Mother, what should I do
to save Ah Li?
-Zixuan!-What do you want?
Don't you know to care about me?
Last time you kicked me, and it still hurts now.
Look, I'm still limping.
Should I kick you one more time?
It is really like a chicken talking to a duck, playing a zither to a cow.
As a lady, you are unromantic at all.
Unromantic? Look at yourself.
How are you romantic?
Zixuan! I want to be clear with you!
Actually, I, I-!
To you, I...have a special feeling!
Special?
The type between men and women!
I urge you to better just clean up and sleep early.
In my heart, I've had Brother Geng Ji since long ago!
Xiao Ju, let me ask you, I having such earnest manners
paired with a perfect face,
guiltless smile, and very fit body figure,
How am I worse that Li Geng Ji?
Tell me! Tell me, tell me, tell me!
Let me do it.
Wu Julan.
Wu Julan...
Young Master, looks like you were also not successful with your battle.
To save Wu Julan, Ah Li
dared to fight with her brother.
Now, she doesn't even want her own life anymore.
Then at this time, you should save Miss Lu!
Isn't it usually that the hero saves the pretty maiden,
and then the maiden will give herself to the hero?
That's what the songs say!
Young Master, this is the best chance for you to make a comeback!
I mean...
you have to steal the person you like!
Because I don't want to fight.
But Ah Li is already like this.
How could I bear to continue forcing her?
Yin Hu.
I-I-I-I was afraid they'd discover your identity on the street,
that's why in a moment of panic, I...don't misunderstand!
I am just sacrificing for righteousness, assisting the weak and helping out the poor.
I understand!
Whenever people are in trouble,
they always reveal their real personality!
That's right, that's right! My real personality is a good person!
I know! Actually, your eyes only see me!
Female warrior, spare me!
Someone's knocking!
Liu Man Tang was a scapegoat?
Wait! I don't understand yet!
Then just who is the real culprit?
I don't know yet.
This...then it means that this person act in an invisible manner
and dimly discernible within illusions.
He can see us, but we can't see him!
That's so scary!
Not only that. I suspect that the successive murders before
including Ming Zhi and Qing Ci, also died in his hands.
That's right. It couldn't be that coincidental.
First, the merpeople burned the Cangming.
afterwards, they became the entire Chang Le's public enemy!
That must be the hidden boss's retaliation!
This person is totally vicious that there was no one that can compare to him from ancient times to the future.
He definitely is a tough enemy who can find a path in Heaven
and doors to enter in the earth.
If I capture him,
see if I do not beat him up that he will lose all his dignity and his face totally unrecognizable.
Cut it out. Sit down, sit down!
Right now, we must find out who the hidden boss is!
I once fought with the murderer.
I am certain that he is a merman.
But just who he is, I'm not sure yet.
In the next few days, I will try to capture him.
Let's see if I can get some clues from his mouth.
Zixuan!
My Lord.
Give it to me.
My Lord, Miss just woke up.
Don't agitate her again.

Ah Li. I still remember when you were six years old.
You were also very sick then. You almost died.
Precisely at that time,
I didn't have the money to buy you medicine.
Big Brother...don't want to die. Save me.
Ah Li, wait. I will definitely save you.
Ah Li, look! I bought you medicine!
Big Brother, where did you get money?
I...
I went and did hard labor on the harbor.
Big Brother!
Silly Ah Li.
-Big Brother!-Why are you crying? I can do anything for you.
For you,
I can do anything.
Ah Li. At that time, our Lu family
lost all power within one night.
The two of us walked this path here.
Only we know the taste of how that was.
Every time I saw you suffer, in my heart,
I swore silently.
I told myself, one day, I will definitely be successful.
I definitely will not let my little sister suffer again.
If I lost you, all I did,
would become meaningless.
In my heart, you,
are the person I love and care about most.
I care about you. That's why I repeatedly persuaded you.
Turn back, Big Brother.
Mm.
Fame and fortune are nothing compared to my Ah Li.
I can let go of everything in this world, but I cannot let go of my Ah Li.
I have thought things through. From now on, I will not participate in killing the merfolk.
Big Brother!
Come. Eat your medicine.
Just who are you?
Since we are the same, why do you wear a mask in front of others?
-Mo Heng?-Mo Heng?
As a merman, why are you killing humans to frame the merfolk?
You're being used.
Prince, how do you know that it isn't the other way around?
Mo Heng. Hurry and return to Blue Cave with me to admit to your crime!
Admit to my crime?
I have cut ties with the merfolk long ago.
How could your king convict me?
If you dare to chase after me, I will make sure his head will...
What?
Mo Heng?
He's actually still alive?
I personally watched him stop breathing then!
I considered that we are a family so i just waited for him to die on his own.
I never imagined...
He hid any news and traces about him, hibernated for so many years, just so he can return and seek revenge against the merpeople.
This time, he actually connived with humans to frame the merfolk
and incite the hatred of humans against us. Totally despicable.
But, I worry that this is only part of his plan.
Afterwards, he will do bigger things.
My heart temporarily softened then.
I didn't think that I would leave such great trouble behind!
It seems like Mo Heng has become a different person.
Not only is his face becomes very ferocious, his fighting abilities are also very good.
The Prince and I fighting together were just barely his equal.
I don't know why.
Perhaps the Great Priestess knows something.
Face that is ferocious and outstanding martial arts skills...
Dying and coming back to life?
It must be the shigu herb.(shi = food, gu = witchcraft)
Shigu herb?
Correct.
Shigu herb is a very poisonous plant.
People will usually die after eating it.
Only those with a strong willed mind can fight against the poison.
After a period of torture, they will retaliate against the poison.
They will make the poison their own and obtain extraordinary abilities.
Looks like Mo Hen came back with intentions to destroy indiscriminately just to seek vengeance.
Uncle's family has already discovered I came back to get revenge.
Now, I'm afraid I will have to fight a hard war.
Listening to your tone, this revenge plan troubles you too.
Why don't you try to let go of your vengeance?
Let go of my vengeance?
Do you know how much I suffered in the past?
It was because of him that I became neither human nor ghost.
I have known you for so long, but I still don't know what you look like.
I'm ugly. I will scare you.
I'm not afraid.
The heart-rending pain and mind-tormenting suffering,
You have suffered too much.
Am I very ugly?
Beauty or ugliness isn't decided based on looks.
It is based on the heart.
I am relieved that Ah Li is okay.
Let us go back to the main topic. I gathered you all today to discuss how we are going to capture the mastermind behind all these.
Brother Geng Ji.
Yesterday, I went to Liu Man Tang's house. His wife told me something new.
Although this person who wanted to create the Cangming was wearing a bamboo hat so we were unable to see his face clearly,
But he has a very obvious unique physical feature.
On the back of his hand, there is a very obvious scar.
With this unique characteristic, our search area has shrunken a lot.
I, Li Geng Ji, worked in the shipyard for so many years.
I have some connections in Chang Le City.
From lowly gangsters to high nobility and officials, they all must give me some respect.
How about this? I will lead some men to arrest him now.
We have not discovered who the hidden boss is, but we are sure
that the serial murderer is a merfolk traitor.
One merfolk, one human. They worked together
to make Chang Le be in pandemonium and be in panic.
These two are a perfect pair!
The Chang Le citizens have no ill will towards the merfolk.
They just don't know the truth, so they are easily manipulated by others.
If we can discover the truth and find the real culprit,
and then find where these rumors all started from,
then we can dissipate the vengeance the humans hold towards the merfolk.
The humans already hate the merfolk so much, we are complete enemies.
Now that it has come to this, who will believe the merfolk are innocent?
There is a way. It's just,
We must make a dangerous move.
Y-young master!! Young Master!
[Today at noon, let us meet in the forest. I have important matter to discuss. Wu Julan]
Adjudant Qin, you indeed came.
Prince of the merfolk, you probably didn't ask me to come out for a cup of tea.
I've already investigated the serial murder crimes in Chang Le City.
The murderer is indeed a merfolk.
My King Father executed this person many years ago.
He was lucky and didn't die, so he came to get revenge.
That's not all. What happened at Chang Le Shipyard was also done on purpose.
Its purpose is to worsen the conflict between humans and merpeople
and borrow human hands to kill the merfolk.
Adjutant Qin, do not worry. When I return, I surely will clean up our own backyard.
After I capture the real culprit, I will allow you to do as you'd like with him.
You asked me to come out alone, risking getting caught,
was just to tell me these things?
I hope that Adjutant Qin can mediate and clear up this case where we are being falsely accused, pacificy the conflict between merfolk and humans.
Wu Julan, why are you so confident?
If I don't believe you and won't listen to your idea,
what will you do?
You are different from other people.
In the whole Chang Le, everyone will change their attitude when they hear of merfolk.
Only you dare to come see me alone.
Aren't you the same? I once led soldiers to capture you, but you still dare to ask me to meet you alone.
Adjutant Qin, we both are upright and straightforward people.
Now, the merfolk have wrongly become the humans' public enemy.
And humans have stepped onto a blood stained path they cannot turn back on.
If you can help clear the merfolk's name, everything will become peaceful.
The humans and merfolk will not be completely destroyed either.
I hope that you can think it over properly.
Young Master, what did Wu Julan say to you just now?
Young Master? Who stole your spirit?
Er Liang. Recently I did some things.
Looking at it now, it seems like I was wrong. What should I do?
Then change!
But if I change, I'm afraid there will be a big price to pay.
How could you continue being wrong just because there's a price to pay?
Young Master, don't you always teach me that there is nothing better than able to know your mistakes and learning to change them?
That's right.
The truth is right in front of me. I cannot flip black and white.
I cannot betray my conscience, right?
Thank you Father, Mother, my family, for watching over us.
Big Brother has finally decided to repent.
During these years, Big Brother and I have been mutually dependent. Even if we have a bigger fight,
it is for each other's good.
From now on, Big Brother will take care of me, and I will watch over him.
The two of us will continue loving each other.
Father, Mother, don't worry.
Young Master, you're back?
Where is the Old Master?
He's reading inside.
Brother Lu.
The wine master of Drunk Deity Pub just had new wines imported from the capital.
Do you want to come drink a cup with me?
If Wu Julan's words are true, then the magistrate office's order to hunt the merfolk
was wrong.
I don't care if he is a traitor or is out for revenge.
I just know that the murderer is a merfolk. No one framed them.
Everyone saw the crime at the shipyard. The merfolk did that too.
Wu Julan just said that to defend the merfolk. He's just dreaming!
I also only half believe what Wu Julan said.
But what he said seem to have a basis. I think that we should first investigate this matter carefully before making any decision.
I think there's no need to investigate further.
Why?
The merfolk are still beasts, and are very cruel.
As long as we kill them all, not only can we protect the humans,
we can also cut off Ah Li and Wu Julan's communications.
Isn't that what you want to see?
Ah Li...she already nearly died once.
I do love Ah Li. But I don't want to see her suffer like this again.
If you really love Ah Li,
then you should protect her well. Don't let others bully her.
The only way to save Ah Li now is to kill Wu Julan.
As long as Wu Julan dies, Ah Li will belong to you.
Endure what must be endured. Do not be impatient.
Be cruel when it is needed. You must not be weak handed.
The case of the merfolk killing people still have a lot of suspicious details that must be thought about.
Starting from today, the order to hunt the merfolk will be lifted.
A decision will be made after an investigation is done.
What does that mean?
One moment they kill, the next they don't! What are they doing?
Didn't the notice already say so?
The investigation was wrong before! The merfolk were framed!
What do you mean, they were wrong? We saw merfolk on the ocean!
That's right. In these times,
what you hear might be false and what you see might also not be true.
That's right. The profound principle that goes after that is so deep. You all will not understand it too even if I say it.
Why do you two always favor the merfolk?
Are you two human or mer?
Are they merfolk?
Speak! Are you human or mer?
None of your business.
They ran! They must feel guilty!
[Cold Wood Spring Blossom]
Wu Julan! It looks like your idea worked!
I really did persuade Qin Hao.
This Qin Hao is a love enemy with Wu Julan,
but he can tell black from white.
He did not use this opportunity to take revenge for personal reasons. He indeed is an upright man.
Now, we only need to catch Mo Heng
and the real mastermind to expose the real truth.
I believe that Prefectural Governor Qin
will give us a fair decision.
Before, it seems that we were in a grave situation.
Now, it looks like things are taking a turn for the better!
Today is a happy day! Smile, smile!
You shouldn't smile. It looks awful.
I will miss you.
When you miss me, lift up your head.
Under this sky that you see,
I am also missing you.
Wu Julan! You must stay safe!
Ah Li. I will not let you marry anyone.
Lady, how come you have forgotten the pain just because the scar has healed?
Lord Lu just left, and you sneaked out.
-If My Lord finds out--If you continue nagging, Big Brother really will find out!
Wu Julan!!! Wu Julan!!
Wu Julan!!
Wu Julan!! Wu Julan!!
Miss! Stop yelling.
My Lord already took the shell used for summoning Wu Julan.
Even if you shout until your throat is hoarse, he won't hear you.
I think we should go back!
Wu Julan! Didn't you tell me to wait for you?
I wait for you every day!
But every day, you don't appear!
How did you know I'd come here looking for you?
Our hearts are linked.
Wu Julan, it's good now.
The magistrate office has lifted the order to kill the merfolk.
My Big Brother also agreed to no longer participate in killing the merfolk.
Ah Li. No one can stop us from being together anymore.
Do you still remember what you promised me?
What?
What? You promised, how could you forget?
I really don't quite remember.
Just what was it?
You said...after the humans and merfolk are back at peace, you will...
Didn't you say...some things should be left for a man to say?
♫One heart separated by mountains, hindered by seas, and need years long of revolution, waiting for you to walk towards me ♫
♫ Two hearts traveled for thousands of miles, charged into a sea of people, treaded for thousands of years, but does not dare to talk about the future ♫
♫ If this ocean will disappear in this world ♫
♫ If you are not stunned by my accident ♫
♫ Maybe I will just let this lifetime of mine fritter away ♫
Will that do?
Is that how you are going to keep your word?
This is the hereditary treasure our merfolk's queen wears.
My Queen Mother died early. This hairpin was given to me a long time ago.
I will give it to you now, as a token of my love.
Lu Li. I want to marry you.
Wu Julan, I will only marry you in this lifetime.
This is what my parents left for me. It's not an expensive treasure,
but it's my most valuable possession.
♫ Two hearts traveled for thousands of miles, charged into a sea of people, treaded for thousands of years, afraid of not having any future ♫
Wait. You merfolk don't have
a tradition of having a harem, do you?
You won't marry a bunch of mermaids into your harem after you marry me, will you?
♫ Tears within laughs, granules with tears, ♫
Ah Li. In this lifetime, I will love you alone.
I will never change.
Prince, why did you call us here?
King Father, Lords of the Court. The human girl Lu Li and I
hold mutual affection for each other.
I am willing to spend my life with her.
Today, I want to announce here,
I will propose marriage to the Lu family and officially marry Lu Li as my Princess.
What? How could merfolk have a human princess?
-I object!-I object too!
-I object too!-I object too!
The merfolk have never had a human princess before.
In the future when the prince takes the throne,
then our royal bloodline will have outsider blood in it!
Human and merfolk are different races,
but we have the same kind of blood and pulses and are like brothers.
The royal bloodline is important,
but marrying humans is not something that will destroy the tribe.
