The Great Protector Episode 12
You're asking me People from your Escort Service beat up the police officers openly
Goddamn officer How dare you come to look for the burglar in our place
- It's too easy on you just to beat you up - Don't move - What do you want to do
Listen to this Listen to this
He even dares to bluster like this in front of me
Your Escort Service is really a den of thieves
Officer Jia You're trespassing a private property without a warrant
I can file a complaint on you to the police headquarter
Complaint on me You provided the safe harbor to the bandit
I'm about to take you into custody
Officer Jia Officer Jia There's some misunderstanding
May I talk with you in private Please this way
Officer Jia Do you know who is the backer behind this Escort Service
Who is it
I'm not gonna beat around the bush with you It's His Royal Highness Zhuang
His Royal Highness Zhuang
You are Tong Ha
You know me, Officer
Of course
Which government office in Beijing doesn't have your criminal records
You are a very important person
You must be joking, Officer
I'm not joking
Look at this yourself In your Escort Service
there're only villains and swindlers besides the bandit
I will shut down your Escort Service today
You...
Wait
Officer Jia I'm the owner of this Escort Service
This has nothing to do with them
Let them go I'll go with you
Let them go OK
But he injured my people The medical expenses will be 100 ounces of silver ingot
Are you crazy Asking for 100 ounces
It won't cost 100 ounces even if I pick your damn head off
- Take him away - Wait
100 ounces
- Why do you give him 100 ounces - E'erhe
So generous Let him go
Please take Lead Escort Master Liu with us
- Hey...But...This... - Go
How...But...

Hey...But...
- I... -Lord E'erhe
Lead Escort Master These bastards

The extreme level of the neutralizing force of Xingyi techniques If he didn't teach you
no one could
Take a person away under our eyes
There aren't many who can do that
Dai Haichen
Where are you taking me to
To where you should be
Where I should be
Shanmao [mountain cat] is a wild animal
It should go to the wilderness Should not be where the humans are
You want to kill me
I have a request
Say it
When you kill me, let me keep my eyes open
I promise
Stop What are you doing here
I'm looking for Mr Yuan
Who are you
Go tell Mr Yuan The General Manager of Guangshun Escort Service
has something important to report to him
Even a man from an Escort Service can come to look for Mr Yuan
Mr Yuan went to the Forbidden City He doesn't have time to see you
Went to the Forbidden City When will he be back
How would I know
Then I just wait here
Hey Is this where can stay No loitering and no trespassing
Hey Am I a drifter
I'm telling you The person whom Mr Yuan owes a favor to
is my friend
If you cause any delay in my thing you'll be held fully responsible
How dare someone like you claim to be the friend of the benefactor to Mr Yuan
I'm telling you I've seen too many swindlers like you
I'll arrest you if you don't leave now
Hey I'm really infuriated
What now How dare you move
I...I'm telling you I'm a person of noble status
It's not appropriate for someone of my status to scuffle with a soldier like you I'm telling you
Mr Yuan Mr Yuan Mr Yuan
Mr Yuan I'm Mr Tong Mr Tong
I'm from Guangshun Escort Service I'm the General Manager of Guangshun Escort Service Mr Yuan
What is your relationship with Liu Anshun
I'm his martial sister The three of us grew up together
Childhood companions
Surprisingly an old-fashioned man like Liu Anshun is quite popular with women
Did he ask you to come to see me
Gege He's still with the police I haven't seen him yet
I just knew it He is just so stubborn
He wouldn't ask for help even when facing life and death
Liu Anshun You are really somebody
Even Mr Yuan and Qin Gege come to plead for you
You haven't been in Beijing for long
But have already establisehd relationships with the dignitaries and nobilities
I really underestimated you
My rank is low and my position is humble
My superior asked me to release you, then I have to let you go
So can I leave now
What do you think
Would like to have a bowl of this too
I'd rather have the noodles from Shanxi
Shaved noodles
Did Head Master come to Beijing too
No Who told you that
I'm thinking Who can take Shanmao away
under my nose
Taking a person away under that kind of circumstances
without being noticed by anybody Who else would be able to do that besides the Head Master
If father is here, Why didn't he tell any of us
Martial Brother
The techniques you used in the fight the other day I've never seen it before
Did you get some advice from a very capable master
It was an anonymous master, giving me the guidance with this knife
No handguard
Yeah No handguard
So in order to protect your hand, you would have to move faster
Also, there should be a horizontal force when you move Here. Let me show you
Hey hey.Disciples of the same master can not teach each other in private.That's what you said
Rongrong What I'm gonna say was not taught by the Head Master
So it's not considered against the rules the Master's teaching
That's right What do you mean, Martial Sister
Martial Brother's Kungfu skills are far better than mine. I won't be able to comprehend even if he tells me. Let him tell me
Not in front of me
What do you plan to do with that bandit girl
No matter what, I have to send her out of town as soon as possible
What are you two talking about
Oh nothing
Delicious Honestly the foreign bun tastes much better than the Chinese bun
Really taste good
Then just eat some more
The cake is really delicious
But it's really terrible that the foreigners drink the black tea
The black tea is stale A nice tea should be fresh
Make a cup for me The green tea
- Drink Longjing tea and eat the cake - What's wrong
It's not quite the habits of the foreigners
That's the bad habits of the foreigners Hurry
You have to drink whatever you have, Missy
All right
Oh didn't you say that you'll read the newspaper for me
OK
The rebels who intended to assassinate Yuan Shikai are still at large
It's talking about you guys, right
Those police and soldiers are just useless
If it were me I would have brought you all to justice long time ago
You are a bandit How would you talk about justice Isn't that ominous
Nothing is a taboo to me
Boring Next one
You're interested in this Opening a book enlightening the mind
What do you mean
Reading is beneficial to you
I see
At the timberyard in Lianziku inside the Huanghua Gate
There's a driver of the horse-drawn carriage A few days ago he took a...
What's up Is it OK
These rebels are really useless
Haven't we made a deal
You are not supposed to get out of this door
Who said I wanted to go out
- I just have eaten too much - And want to have some fresh air out here
There's also a news about a woman killing her husband Do you want to listen
No I don't
Have some more afternoon tea
Young Master Someone just sent this over
He said it's something you ordered at Liulichang
Yes Mr Qiao you may leave now
Wait a second
Please turn away all the visitors for me tonight If there's anyone come for me just tell them I'm already asleep
Yes

Xie Huan You are here
I heard it's been quite lively here recently
Yes indeed
Yuan Shikai is already in control of the six brigades of Beiyang Army Why didn't you leave
How can I leave if you don't come
How can you be sure that I will come
Did you forget We all made the pledges together in Tokyo
Yes We did make the pledges
We were only students at that time
The passion of a student is also easy to cool down
But still you are here, aren't you
But I'm a businessman now
My perspectives are little different now
I came here to make a deal with you this time
You treat our cause as a business
The cause of revolution is inseparable from the business
Without ammunition without money, how can you further your cause of revolution
So you are optimistic about the revolution
I'm trying to find an alternative for my family
You're a speculator
Whether I am speculative or not
I'm telling the truth
Three thousand guns Five thousand rounds of ammunition
All will be shipped to Xiematai in the east suburb in three days
No matter what, if the revolution can succeed
there'll be your credit
Forget about the credit In this chaotic time
All I want
is the peace and stability
I'll give you the goods
As to whether you can ship to your destination it'll all depend on your luck
Along your way, there are quite few bandit's territories
let alone the checkpoints by the authority
You don't need to worry about this I'll find a way myself
I'm leaving this with you as a memento
You've been wearing this since I know you
Now what You are ready to die
Death or success
For this time I'm determined to fight till the end
Jinshui I know your aspiration
But as an old classmate I want to give you one more advice
You only live it once No matter what
You must live on
I'm taking it for now
Hope there'll be the time it can reunite with its owner
Xie Huan You take care too
Without the handguard, you have to move even faster
Also, there should be a horizontal force when you move
Xiping
What are you doing
Nothing
- You are drinking - No - Move over
Don't lie to me
What's wrong You are worried about something
I'm not supposed to have any worry
Anyone irritated you
No
Are you coming to me for something
No,I just came back from the Escort Service and saw your light is still on.So I am here
Is everything fine with Brother Shun
Not at all
On the surface everything seems to be as usual for him But I know
in his heart if he can't rescue that bandit girl
he would be really bothered
He won't be able to establish himself in Beijing if he can't open up a new escort route
If he can't establish himself he won't be able to return to Taigu
Martial Sister Is that you really want to see Brother Shun return to Taigu
What are you talking about Don't you want to see that too
That's not what I meant
What I was saying is that if Brother Shun opens up the new escort route
there will be new business for him
If there're new businesses, he won't return to Taigu very soon
You're right Why didn't I think of that
Hey can you give me some ideas
Let him open up the new escort route and also return to Taigu sooner
Otherwise I would always feel so anxious if he continues to stay in Beijing
How would I have that ability I'm not the Head Master
If I were the Head Master I would have you two get married in Beijing
Just to make you feel comfortable and at ease
You little rascal
I'm talking about something serious Stop the nonsenses
Don't want to talk to you now I'm going back to my room
You should go to bed too No more drinking
I just had one cup out of this jug
We've traveled over 50 kilometers, haven't we
- That's right - You're almost at the Blindman's Ridge
You're right We're right there
You are sending me to the home of the bandits
Genius Unfortunately you took the wrong way
My father was a bandit
What else could I be if I don't become a bandit
Your father was a bandit But he was against the government
He should be considered as a hero But you
All you are thinking about are money and woman
Money and woman are all good things
No one would not like them
Your father died too early You didn't get the disciplines
A man should know there're things he should do
and there're also things he shouldn't do
Then when I'm incarnated
I'll try to get into a civilized family
Hewu
You are not leading the escort team now Why are you calling "Hewu"
Hewu
I've followed so many escort teams
Your calling is the most powerful
Hewu
Hewu Hewu

I'll let you go if you can kill him
You have to keep your words
Sure
You...are Lu Zongshan
Good job You've got it
Dai Haichen You are testing my Kungfu techniques
We haven't seen each other for decades Who knows whether you've lost it
You must have come specifically all the way here to see me
I'm sending someone to you
Good
Master Lu is indeed Master Lu
The old man Dai who can't hit the road for the escort anymore Do you want to be a bandit
I'm telling you I'm actually here to persuade you to give it up for good
I'm offering amnesty and enlistment to you for the government
There should be some money for the amnesty and enlistment
No money
But I'm bringing you a beast
Old Man Where did you get this prey
Beijing
You want to hand him to me
Keep a close watch over him Don't let him get down this mountain
Luxurious This is the most luxurious bandit camp I've ever seen
This is the Shanmao you talked about
Folks in the underworld would all show me some courtesy
They would call me Lord Mao
I'd only recognize Lord Dai
I'd only recognize Lord Lu I'd only recognize Lord Dai
Hello, Lord Mao Hello, Lord Mao
Why are your eyes green Mixed-race bastard
Good That's the material for a bandit Didn't even blink his eyes
He is really wild and hard to control
I was scratched by him once before
Then I'll just chop off his paws first
- But you can't harm him - Why
The Old Commander of the Black Flag Division was his father
- It's true - Don't you try to scare me, you old man
- It's true - Don't scare me
- It's true - You old man
It's really true

Lead Escort Master What are you here for
Lord Wa Didn't know you can do the bookkeeping too
There are tons of rogues and bullies in Beijing
It would be a total mess if I don't keep good records
Didn't you say In ten days
we can have it settled between us if I'm still alive
Yes I did say that
Do you want to do it after all
I gave you ten extra days Can't you wait me for a little while
I'm sorry I'll wait
OK I'm not gonna keep you waiting any longer
Sit down
I said we would have it settled if you could come back alive
What I meant is that we can become friends
You meant to make friends with me when you said to have it settled
Heroes always respect heroes since the ancient times Just a little dispute
Why should we be bothered by this Why can't we turn hostility to friendship
Turn hostility into friendship That would be nice
- But the money I owe you... - Stop
Don't even talk about the money That's classless
If you need money just take it
What do you mean by sending this cat to me
You've sent me a big present
I have to return the favor
Do you really know what I mean
You sent me the flag of the Nian Army
because you don't want to let me retire
It's the best time for a hero to display his prowess
Don't you feel sorry that your Kungfu skills would be wasted I still remember at that time...
Forget about that time I had told you thirty years ago
As soon as I joined the escort business, we would not talk about the things of revolt again
Then why do you send the son of the Old Commander to me
The Old Commander is dead His son needs to be disciplined by someone
The escort business can't accept anyone who has been a bandit
The guys is the material to be a bandit
He has the same wildness as the Old Commander
But I'm telling you it's hard to control his wildness
If there's not someone who can tame him down
he will be killed sooner or later
You're flattering me again
You're the common leader of all the bandit gangs in the North
Who else can tame him if you can't
Aren't you afraid I would have bad influence on him
He's already as bad as he can be
For the sake of the Old Commander I will take him
But it's not acceptable to me that you're keeping yourself out of this
You want to get even with me
Now let's sort it out completely
Your daughter is in Beijing, right
You saw my daughter
If it was because of my disciple
she would have been violated and become someone's wife long ago
Who dares to bully my daughter
She is OK now As long as she is protected by my disciple's Escort Service
she'll be fine from now on
My daughter is staying at your disciple's Escort Service
- Liu Anshun - Liu Anshun
Liu Anshun
Now I owe you a favor instead
Not to me To my disciple
OK OK
I'll remember this
He's an escort master I'm a bandit We'll run into each other sooner or later
I can not accept that flag
You can give it to that guy when the time is appropriate
Old Commander Old Commander
From Beijing to Luanzhou
There're no less than five or six checkpoints along the way
In addition there're more than ten bandit gangs To send these goods over
That's not easy
There're a few comrades outside of the city We can call upon them at anytime
Direct confrontation is not the best option
To get through these checkpoints
We still need the travel permit from the government
Travel permit Where can we get that
The escort service
Escort service
But which escort service would take on our goods
Yan Jinshui Yan Jinshui I can't stay here any longer I'm dying
Yan Jinshui Do you hear me I'll kill myself if you don't come over now
I'll die in front of your eye, Yan Jinshui
You'd better go take a look, Mr Yan If she keeps shouting like this
the police on patrol may follow the noise and come over soon
I'm not going That girl is from the gang of bandits
Pretty tough to control
Yan Jinshui Come over right now I'm so sick of this
Yan Jinshui Come over Get your butt over here right now
Get the hell out Yan Jinshui I'm sick and tired out this
Yan Jinshui
I'll go take a look
Come on
Follow him
What's going on
You listen to me carefully
- I need to have a bath Get me a pot of hot water - Have a bath
I've been here for so many days and haven't had a bath It's so dirty I'm almost smelly now
Smell it if you don't believe me
Forget it I'm getting you some water right now
Wait
I need a big bath tub
Here
Guys To be honest with you
Your boss ran into some trouble while at my place
But it will be resolved very soon
Please give me a few more days
Is that the police watches over too closely
If you believe me Three days later
I'll send your boss out of the town
In three days
OK, Master Liu Only three days
Can you give us a little more
Eat it slowly
Brother Du
It's said Liu Anshun was taken into custody by the police
Yuan Shikai went to bail him out in person
Now this guys is really becoming something
At first we were thinking about driving him out
Surprisingly he took advantage of it in the end
- All these losing cards - Being able to establish himself here That means he is a man who has real abilities
Although peers tend to be against each other
sometimes we can help each other too
Folks Don't give him a hard time any more
He is really a man of character Even when in front of Jia Kemu
he's never given in He's won the respect for our business indeed
- Right - Yes I agree Jian Kemu is always against us in the escort business
It's not a bad thing to teach him a lesson this time
- Isn't it - Brother Du
Head Master Dai Haichen has come to our Escort Service
The water is ready
What are you doing standing here Get out
Oh yes I'm getting out
- Is that you want to watch me having a bath - No no no
Then why don't you get out now
Don't peek
Born bandit I'm a Revolutionary anyhow
- But I'm doing all these here like a servant How did that happen - Jinshui
- Uncle Xia - It is day ten today
Liu Anshun will come to get her soon
But still we can't let him take her away
That girl is the only card we have in hand
Since you'd have to let her go sooner or later
We'd rather send her back first than wait for him to come over
As if we're doing him a favor
- To someone like Liu Anshun we should let him... - Lord Xia
It's already ten days I'm here to pick her up
Lead Escort Master
You can take her away with you at any time But you need to promise me one thing
Master This way please
Please
Mr Du Please excuse me for disturbing you
Master Please don't say that to me
You are our senior who has the utmost respect and accomplishment in the escort business Your visit to my Sanli Escort Service
is really a great honor to us of the younger generations
Speaking of all these flattering words Are you treating me as a stranger
No, not at all
Master Why don't you send a message over first before you come to Beijing this time
So we can make some arrangements for your visit
I'm just travelling around leisurely
Just want to keep it low key
Don't want the peers in the business to say I'm taking advantage of my seniority
Mr Du Your Escort Service is the No 1 in Beijing
I'm actually coming to you for shelter this time
Master Anything I can do, please just let me know
My disciple Xiping came to visit you a few days ago
Did you get to meet each other
Thank you Master Thank you so much for the generous presents
Anshun came to Beijing this time You gave him a lot of help
I am the one should say thank you
I'm really humbled
Now we're done flattering each other
Let's talk about something serious
I'm listening closely
We are all in the escort business
It's normal there are competitions among the peers
Guangshun Escort Service was in Taigu originally
There would not be any disputes between us
Now my disciple Liu Anshun is opening the business in Beijing
No offense to you
he is trying to get a piece out of your pie
Inevitably somebody will not be happy
Master
I understand
Fortunately Beijing is big enough and there're a lot of business opportunities
A couple more Escort Services won't cause any harm to the businesses of others
I'm an old-fashioned man
I'd expect my disciples will have some accomplishments
To that extent, I truly hope you can understand my feeings
Of course Of course
So I come to ask for a special favor this time
I'd like to ask you to find an escort trip for my disciple Anshun
I'll give you an escort route in return
Master I'm really humbled by all your words
Even if you don't ask for it
I would definitely do my part to help if Brother Anshun runs into any difficulties
Good You can also rest assured
While doing business, one should not keep all the advantages to himself and let the others suffer the losses
That's all I want to day I'm not gonna bother you any longer
But Master I haven't treated you to a welcome dinner yet
To me, your help on this matter is so much better than eating anything
You'd remember No matter whether it can be done or not
Don't mention my name at all
Master Please don't worry about it
- Good-bye - This way please
Escort your goods
Uncle Xia You...
As soon as you agree I'll let her go immediately
Aren't you afraid that I'll take her with me but go back on my words later
You are not that kind of person
This is your only choice if you really want to take her with you
OK I agree
We'll hand over the goods in the east suburb three days later
I'll go with you
