[Magic Star]
~ Episode 40 ~
Zi Su, I want to apologize to you.
Lan Ling, don't say things like that.
What you said is right.
I am indeed a burden.
When I was with them, I wasn't able to help them in any ways.
I was only able to cause them trouble.
If not because of me, Xiong Fei wouldn't...
Zi Su, for you being able to meet a man who willingly risks his life for you,
this is such a huge fortune.
I really admire you.
And I think I should return to the role of a good friend.
Let us find Xiong Fei together.
After getting the Magic Stars, I'll help you two leave this place.
For me, just having these memories is more than enough.
Lan Ling...
- How was it? - How was it?
There's still no news of him.
But the news I got from the assassin's camp say
that Lord Xiu Fu will be doing a grand sacrificial ceremony at the Mounds of Heroes.
By that time, all citizens of the Underground City will be attending.
Mounds of Heroes?
Correct.
It is also the place where you found Zhan Xiong Fei today.
When people here in Underground City die, they get to be buried there.
Especially for those ancestors and netherworld assassins, they'd have an elaborate funeral there.
After dying, they continue to guard the Underground City there.
And this time, Lord Xiu Fu wants to use the power of the Magic Stars to summon God's Army.
Then...
I know already.
The God's Army must be just in the Mound of Heroes.
This is the grandest offering stage that I've seen.
Congratulations City Leader for changing the history of Yongzhou Underground City soon.
It's been hundreds of years.
I finally see the arrival of this day.
Okay.
Today, I'll give you all an eye-opener.
Look. They are my God's Army.
Tomorrow, I will lead them
to protect the citizens of Yongzhou Underground City as we charge up into the upper ground and wash away our past humiliation!
Congratulations, City Leader.
Shaman Ding, this time, you did the greatest merit for this.
In the future, I will surely not treat you unfairly.
Too bad, that Princess escaped.
City Leader, your God's Army is ever triumphant.
The changing of a dynasty can happen in just a flick of your finger.
Why do we still need that princess?
Shaman Ding, those words that you said were so good.
Changing of a dynasty...
Let us all together change a dynasty!
Change a dynasty!
The captain is dead so what should we do now?
Who will lead everyone?
That's right.
This... Who should we choose to sit on this position?
That's right.
Hey, what if we let Chen Ming Pan be the captain again,
everyone will have good days to live again.
What you said is right.
That's right. What you said is so right.
Let's just let him be the captain.
Let's just do as such.
Let it be like that.
Starting today, let us vote again to choose the captain of this ship.
That's right.
Let us choose Chen Ming Pan.
Let us choose him.
Let us let him be the captain.
That's right. Let's do that.
I know.
The voting this time has no meaning.
But we cannot break the pirate tradition that we have had for thousands of years.
This is the rule.
I, Cheng Ming Pan, have always been a rule abiding person.
I am voting for Cheng Ming Pan.
I am voting for Chen Ming Pan...
I am voting for Chen Ming Pan.
- I am voting for Chen Ming Pan. - I am also voting for Chen Ming Pan.
I am voting for Chen Ming Pan.
- I am voting for Chen Ming Pan. - I am also voting for Chen Ming Pan.
- I also vote. - I.
I am also voting for Chen Ming Pan.
- I also vote for Chen Ming Pan. - I also vote for him.
Me, too.
Okay. Starting today,
I am still the captain of this ship!
Captain! Captain! Captain...
Captain! Captain!
Captain! Captain! Captain...
Captain! Captain!
Captain! Captain! Captain...
Captain! Captain!
Welcome, by most beloved captain.
Captain,
I already prepared some food and drinks to welcome you.
Oh, my, how come there are so many of these?
I owed you money before.
This time, I am paying for it with interest.
There is one saying that says,
"If a woman can spend,
then a man can earn it."
I initially thought
that the God's Army was just some matter to fool the citizens of the Underground City.
I never really thought that there was such a thing.
Just looking at them really is making me envious.
That's right. Such a strong power fell into Lord Xiu Fu's hands.
It's really such a pity.
That's right. Too bad.
What you mean is?
After tomorrow night, when the God's Army has been summoned,
charging out of the Underground City is the time that they will all disappear.
By that time, the whole God's Army and the Magic Stars will be ours.
Don't forget that the medicine is fake.
Lord, you are always this brilliant.
Mr. Ding.
Lord, I'll guard the door.
Pi Wu, our success or failure all depends from tomorrow night.
At this critical time, I advise you to come here less
so as you don't get targeted by Lord Xiu Fu's men.
Mr. Ding, you are worrying too much.
On my way here, I just randomly change my face. Who will recognize me?
There was only one big piece missing from the puzzle now.
Hey, do you really have a way to let the citizens of Yongzhou Underground City believe our medicine?
Of course, my words won't do.
But if it is Lord Xiu Fu's words, there surely will be people who will believe it.
If no one believes Lord Xiu Fu's words,
they surely will believe the Miracle Doctor's words, right?
Come. Sit.
Pi Wu, recently, our partnership is going very well.
But in my heart, I'm still unclear about two questions.
Hope you can answer them truthfully.
Two questions?
Don't say just two questions. Even if there are 200 questions, it's fine with me.
Just ask.
First,
you clearly know that we don't have any real drug with us.
Once we charge out of the Underground City, aren't you afraid that you might die?
Second,
where did you learn your Many-Faced Technique? Can you tell me that?
The answer to the first question is very easy.
I am the same with my Teacher and Senior Apprentice. We are not citizens of the Underground City.
It's just that we have stayed in this place for quite long
that's why we look almost the same as the citizens here.
For the second question, it's also fine to tell you the answer.
I learned the Many-Faced Technique from an ancient scroll called The Scripts of Moonlight.
But this scroll has long been lost.
In this world, I am the only one left with such skills.
Okay.
Now that both questions have been answered, I don't have any more questions, either.
Once you've helped me achieve my goals, I will surely not forget to reward you.
Thank you, Mr. Ding.
I actually came here today to bring my gift.
I already got back what he owed before.
But I also know that there are some things
that he won't be able to achieve on his own.
This is also the reason I came here to look for you two.
Okay. You don't need to say anything.
I know what you want to say.
I don't mean to blame you two
because I know that everyone will choose to save their own self.
Today, I came here to inform you two of another thing.
What is it?
Starting today, I am the boss here on this island.
Starting today, no boats can leave the island!
Waiter, take this thing away.
Yes.
I never thought that things would go this way.
Not removing the roots when eliminating the grass
can only lead to unending trouble.
The Chen Ming Pan that returned this time isn't the same as before.
Now he has hired those soldiers.
He again was able to get the captain position.
He wants to dominate the whole port.
Actually...
this might be a good thing.
What did you say?
Nothing. If he wants to forcibly occupy it, then just let him.
As long as he doesn't go to that place.
If right now, Older Brother Bai Ze, A Ji Ya, and Yuan Shuai are all here, that'd be great.
Yuan Shuai? Was he the person who can really cook great meals?
Did Zhan Xiong Fei even tell you these?
That's right.
Just by istening to it, I also want to have friends like that very much.
I want it even in my dreams.
Lan Ling, you are already our friend now.
And I also believe that once you see Yuan Shuai and the others, you all will also become good friends.
By that time, let Zhang Xiong Fei take--
I am guessing that Zhang Xiong Fei must be at a certain place right now
thinking of how to remove the demonic spirit inside him,
so that he can return by your side to see you sooner.
Good lad, you actually were able to brave it out.
Thank you, Elders.
If you want to thank anyone, thank yourself.
It was your own strong will that helped you get through it.
Elder, I'll go look for Zi Su now then.
Go.
Let's see each other again in the future. Thank you very much.
He was able to get past this trial.
As for his future road, it will depend on him.
These are all mine! These are all mine!
Okay already. Let's not wait anymore.
No matter if Zhang Xiong Fei will return or not,
we must make our move.
This is our last chance to stop Lord Xiu Fu and Ding Song.
If I can only become his burden,
then I am willing to leave him, as long as he can be well.
Zi Su, don't say such things right now.
Look who is here.
- Xiong Fei! - Zi Su.
Xiong Fei!
Zi Su, I finally found you.
Zhan Xiong Fei, where did you go?
I thought I would never see you again.
Jeez, I already told you before, I won't leave you.
Teacher.
Qian Zhen, it's good that you are fine.
Zi Su... if you hug me a bit more tightly, I might die already.
Oh, right. Where did you really go? What happened?
Earlier, I can't control myself so I went into a ravine.
Later on... I got saved by two demon exterminators.
Demon exterminators?
I still can't understand until now why they didn't attack me while I was weak
and instead used their own internal energy to save me.
If you ask me, the heart of demon exterminators are also made of flesh.
Xiong Fei, it's good that you are back.
Lan Ling.
Teacher, how come you are with Xiong Fei?
You all are going to save all the citizens of the Underground City. How can I be absent from it?
Although I am already old,
I still can help in some aspects.
Miracle Doctor...
Miracle Doctor, all the Magic Stars are with Lord Xiu Fu right now.
How can we win over him? May Miracle Doctor guide us.
I do have a plan.
Miracle Doctor, if I take that medicine again, I might not be able to hold on anymore.
Not anymore. I still have another way.
Prescription?
Right. Prescription.
Get all the ingredients for this prescription and
then boil it and take it in.
All of you will then have external appearance same as the citizens of the Underground City.
This way, you can move around more conveniently.
How about this then, Teacher?
I'll go to the 100 Herbs shop.
You don't need to trouble yourself anymore.
The 100 Herbs shop now maybe full of ambushes.
It's better that we take the trouble rather than risking this danger.
Mr. Gongsun, better to just let me do it.
Lan Ling, just let me go do it.
Just let me.
My martial arts skills are better than yours. Lan Ling...
Your body right now is still very weak. You better not go anymore.
That's right.
And also, if you guys go, it would be too obvious.
Better to let me go. It's more convenient.
Just let Lan Ling do it.
Okay, I'll go now.
Better be careful.
City Leader, were you looking for me?
Shaman Ding was just in time.
All of you turn around.
These people are my personal bodyguards.
Look at them closely and see if there is something different with them.
City Leader, I am quite dumb. I really can't see anything different.
You can't see what's different about them, can you?
It's good that you can't see it
because there's nothing different about them to begin with.
Let me tell you the truth.
Since City Leader got Miracle Doctor Gongsun Mia Quan's prescription from you ,
he then made the medicine overnight and let them take it in.
And then let them go to the upper ground.
Although the time was too short, we were not able to observe for enough time.
But while above ground, they were continuously exposed to the sun
and also they were able to safely return here.
It shows that this prescription has nothing wrong with it.
Looks like City Leader still doesn't believe me.
Shaman Ding, don't misunderstand. How can I not trust you?
I just can't fully trust that old man Gongsun.
After all, it concerns the lives of each Underground City citizens.
That's why, I cannot be careless.
Shaman Ding, we welcome you to attend the grand party of our Yongzhou Underground City tomorrow night.
If City Leader doesn't have anything else, I will then leave first to prepare for it.
Okay. Shaman Ding, please.
City Leader, look how his face turned green.
He surely was guilty about something.
Good thing that the prescription is true.
That's enough already.
I know that he never stopped coveting the Magic Stars.
Him giving me all the Magic Stars is just a delaying tactic of his.
Since it's that way, then I will just work my way into their plan.
City Leader is brilliant.
Tomorrow night, everyone
must gather at the Mounds of Heroes!
Miracle Doctor has already developed a magical drug for us not to be afraid of the sunlight!
Tomorrow night, everyone must gather at the Mounds of Heroes!
Miracle Doctor has already developed a magical drug for us not to be afraid of the sunlight!
We can see daylight again!
By that time, we all can participate.
Really? That's great.
Look. Look.
- It's real. - This is a good news.
We can see the sunlight again.
That's right.
- Lord Ding, please calm down. - We have underestimated Lord Xiu Fu!
He actually tested that fake prescription behind my back.
We are almost at the most critical time.
Pi Wu, let me tell you. If you cause this plan to fail,
you will not only get nothing,
don't bother thinking of living either.
Look how scared you got.
I already guessed that Lord Xiu Fu would not easily believe that prescription.
He doing that is within my expectations.
What do you mean?
Mr. Ding, think about it.
When those guards took the medicine, they went out and were able to return.
Weren't they fine?
This way, it can make Lord Xiu Fu believe more that the prescription is true. Am I right?
Then does it mean that you've been expecting all this?
Don't forget. I also was a disciple of old man Gongsun for several years.
Although that prescription cannot let white-skinned people be unafraid of the sun forever,
we can also say that it is not totally fake. It sill has some effects.
What you mean is that those guards will still die in the end?
By that time, everything has already been set.
Even if Lord Xiu Fu notices it, it would already be too late.
You deliberately planning all of this and advancing carefully step by step and even dragging me into setting this trap,
could it really be just for all that money?
Let's just take what we each need in this partnership.
Don't ask about other things anymore.
What really is your motive?
What is my motive?
My motive is to let all the people of the Underground City die!
Why must you do that?
You all will not understand.
The pain for a child personally seeing the netherworld assassins killing all of his family in front of him.
So many years have passed.
I am still able to see that scene clearly every time I close my eyes.
Afterwards, old man Gongsun took me here.
I got brought here to the Underground City.
I then secretly told myself that I must take revenge for my loved ones.
I kept holding it in and was just waiting for a chance.
Right now, this chance has finally arrived.
You are insane.
I am insane?
Then how about you two? Can you two be better than me?
Let me tell you. We are currently ants on the same rope. No one can escape.
So the ones who got into the thieves' ship are us.
Looks like I can only poison him to kill him.
The Money Island is your forbidden place.
He trespassed onto Money Island. Why aren't you killing him?
He trespassed the forbidden area so he deserves to die.
But before I kill him,
I want to know why he came here.
How many people like him are still out there coveting for this place?
Maybe I shouldn't ask
but I still want to know why Money Island is that important for you and those people.
Let me tell you a story then.
Legend says that thousands of years ago,
there were five Magic Stars that fell down to the mortal world.
These five Magic Stars are holding great power within them.
As long as humans can gather them, then they can fulfill any wish.
Wish?
What wish?
I hope that I can see my father again.
Your father is a just, upright, and chivalrous ship captain.
Everyone on this island respected him.
I even treated him as a good teacher and loyal friend.
But he has already left for so many years.
Why must you continue to let yourself live in pain?
No.
I believe that by gathering these five Magic Stars,
I will then be able to see my father.
Ming Zhen...
Boss Ming!
Boss Ming, oh, no! Chen Ming Pan is coming.
Based on his demeanor, he is here to come after you.
What?!
- I'll accompany you. - No.
I will go on my own.
[Miracle Doctor Gongsun has developed a prescription for us to stay under the sunlight.]
Looks like the news about the Miracle Doctor creating an antidote has already spread throughout Underground City.
This concerns all the citizens of the Underground City
and his daughter, Xiu Xiu's life.
How could he make such a joke?
Looks like there is only one possibility.
Lord Xiu Fu must have been fooled himself.
That can't be. Lord Xiu Fu isn't stupid.
And also, he wanted to have this prescription for so many years.
Now that this prescription suddenly appeared, he surely would have doubted it.
If others gave it to him, of course, he would not believe.
But if it was personally given by Teacher...
What do you mean? How could Uncle Gongsun send him a fake prescription?
You guys all misunderstood.
What Qian Zhen is talking about is...
Pi Wu.
Pi Wu?
I understand. It must be Pi Wu disguising himself as Uncle Gongsun and delivering the fake prescription to Lord Xiu Fu.
This way, Lord Xiu Fu will surely believe it as being true.
Looks like the situation is more urgent that we thought.
We must convince all citizens not to believe in that fake prescription
before the extreme dark day.
And also get the Magic Stars back. We must not let Lord Xiu Fu summon the God's Army.
Xiu Xiu!
What? Do you like the toy I gave you?
I like it.
Xiu Xiu, are you drawing Daddy?
I still haven't finished drawing.
Just keep drawing.
Oh, my. Xiu Xiu, I am very happy today.
Because... tomorrow...
I will take you out of here and into the upper ground.
I heard that there are a lot of delicious foods and fun things up there.
What is the first thing that you want to do?
I want... to go look for Older Sister Zi Su.
Why are you thinking about her?
Father, can you promise me
that once we get out, you won't hurt Older Sister Zi Su again?
Actually, I have a lot of things to be busy with right now.
As long as she doesn't destroy my plans, I don't have the time to mind her.
Xiu Xiu, this gift that I have given you,
you must take care of it well.
Okay. Tomorrow, I will be taking you out.
Okay.
Just play.
How come we can't find that treasure hunter
who just disappeared into thin air?
Could he... be Ding Song's man?
Ding Song?
That... That thief who took the Star Chart from me got caught
and was locked into the storage room.
Who caught who?
It was Ming Zhen who caught that guy who took our Star Chart
and locked him up in the storage room.
Why did Ming Zhen arrest him?
Could she also want to have the Magic Stars?
Come. Come.
Drink!
Come. Come.
Five. Six, six, six.
Lady Boss personally serves the dishes.
I am a little overwhelmed.
I know that you are here for me.
Do you know about that matter?
I know.
Say it then.
About sailing out.
You also know that it is about sailing out?!
It was an order that I made.
All ships must not sail out.
Aren't you slapping my face?!
Should I punish someone already?
If I die,
how are you able to get rid of your items?
Without my management,
this place will soon get destroyed by the government's Navy
and just end up being an empty space.
I just want to know
what really are you hiding?!
Want to know it? Unless you kill me.
You...
If the wine and food aren't enough, just tell me.
You tell me, why is he not yet back?
Calm down. Don't rush.
He should be back soon.
What to do?
You are finally back! How was it?
The Star Chart isn't with that guy.
Then it would be...
with Ming Zhen?
After circling around once, this Star Chart still ended up with me.
Easy! Easy!
- Go! - Go!
Put me down!
Wow, this medicine is quite great.
You all look so similar to us.
Right now, I'll go to Lord Xiu Fu's chambers and tell him that the prescription is fake.
I'll try to buy time for him to stop his plan.
The two of you will disguise as my medical disciples and
then search the palace and see if you can find the Magic Stars.
Teacher, how about me?
You and Lan Ling will stay outside the palace and wait for orders.
Teacher, how about--
Qian Yi Shou, your face is quite familiar here in the Underground City. You can be easily recognized.
Zi Su and I have upgraded.
Don't worry.
It's settled then.
That Ming Zhen would rather disobey my orders
and sail out without permission just for this?
You are not able to understand this thing even if you look at it.
The ancient texts on that thing can only be deciphered by me.
Shut up!
Let me tell you.
If you dare say more,
do you believe that I'll cut down your tongue and eat it with wine?
Let me ask you now. Where is the treasure hidden?
I am asking you where the treasure is hidden!
Let's see how stubborn you are.
Let's see how stubborn you are. Let's see how stubborn you are.
Are you saying it or not?! Are you saying it or not?!
Say it!
To tell you the truth, I quite admire you.
You are an intelligent and brave person.
But seeing you just dying like this,
it's quite a waste.
I know what you are being persistent about.
Before, I was quite like you.
I never thought of betraying any friends. Never thought about it.
But since I died once,
I then knew it; I understood it.
Living in this chaotic world,
there really is no need to have any faith or beliefs.
The weak...
have no way of surviving in this world.
No one will remember everything that you are enduring now.
I can't take it anymore.
I'll talk.
Isn't it enough if I say it?
- Untie him. - Untie him.
Yes!
- How was it? - I got information already.
The situation isn't good.
Based on my inference, the Star Chart should be with Cheng Ming Pan.
Why do you say that?
All the people in the streets right now are saying that Chen Ming Pan found a treasure map that only he can understand.
I heard that the place marked on the treasure map is the legendary Money Island.
The legendary map must be the star chart. Then the treasure is...
Magic Star.
And also, I also heard some other news.
Cheng Ming Pan's men had purchased shovels and ropes this morning.
I think that they will be going to Money Island soon.
What should we do?
You guys said that you would let me go!
What are you guys planning to do to me?!
- Let's go. - Okay.
Bastards! A group of bastards!
How do you all dare insult a Toyo warrior like this?
You all remember, there will come a day that I will massacre all you people here in Pirate Bay!
Start a war with Chen Ming Pan?
This isn't a small matter.
We cannot estimate how many casualties there would be.
Moreover, the Chen Ming Pan now is different from before.
The army he has now are all ruffians.
That's why I need you.
But I must know why.
Ming Zhen,
I am willing to do anything for you.
But I also hope that you can consider my feelings.
I have the right to know why you do all this.
