Episode 15
Let's leave.
Don't mess around.
Can't you tell that this place is evil?
Dai Yun was such a strong fighter, but he died that way. I might be the next victim.
Sister, how is that possible? Don't mess around.
Everything has an origin. Those rumors can't be fake.
Tomorrow morning, I want to leave this stupid place.
Little kid, don't mess around.
Brother, leave together with me tomorrow!
No.
Before the case is resolved, nobody can leave.
You suspect me?
So what if I do?
Stop! How are you acting?
How about we all stay here?
First, we can take care of each other.
Second, there should be more people in this valley.
- I agree.- Tomorrow morning, we can go investigate the crime scene.
Before then, we can all stay here to rest.
Our two parties can both send one person to watch over the fire for emergencies.
- What do you think?- Okay.
You know them?
They came at the same time as us. They say they're previous business managers here. Do you know them?
There were many business managers in the valley in the past. What's her name?
Wu Qianqian.
In the past, there were two managers with the surname of Wu. One moved away many years ago,
and the other one also owned a casino like me, so we had many conflicts.
In that fire, his whole family burned to death.
I've never heard that they have a daughter.
We'll find out after asking her.
Let's go.
Wanqing, be careful.
What do you mean?
Nothing that An Bang says is true.
I agree.
In a moment, find a chance to go inside the room and see.
Okay.
Brother Di, why are there so many people?
- What do you mean?- Tell me!
Did you kill my friend?
What are you saying?
Hurry and tell me, or else I'll kill you.
Hey, please put your sword down first.
Hey, Brother Jinhai, put down your sword, okay?
Miss, who is your father?
My father is Wu Datong.
Didn't Mister Wu's whole family move away long ago?
Three days before the big fire, my father returned to visit my mother's grave here,
but he was caught in the fire, so...
So that's how it is. I had some interactions with your father back in the days.
I'm sorry about just now.
It's okay.
Young Sir Di, what's wrong with him?
Somebody died last night, so we're here to remind you to be careful.
It's about to rain. L-Let's go inside first. Let's go inside.
Hurry, hurry.
We'll hide from the rain first.
What is this?
Hey, look. Why is this here?
Everyone, don't panic. After these many years, my father was never properly buried,
so I especially created a cenotaph.
Miss Wu, your love for your father is very touching.
What is this smell?
Mugwort. It's a type of mugwort unique to this valley.
Its smell is rich and repels mosquito.
Miss Wu, you built this coffin after arriving here, right?
Yes, Uncle Wu and I spent the whole night building it.
Everyone, let's get back on topic. Now, all the people in this valley are here.
What do you think we should do? Our brother can't die for no reason.
Brother Jinhai, I understand how you feel, but we can't falsely accuse somebody.
That's right. There aren't many evidence or clues right now.
Plus, we don't even know if the culprit is human.
If it's a vampire, what should we do?
That's right. I don't want to end up like Dai Yun. That's too tragic.
It's all my fault. Perhaps I shouldn't have brought you all here.
Since it's already happened, there's no point in blaming somebody. There's only one solution right now.
What is it?
We should all stay together.
First, if the culprit is among us, it'll be more likely for him to accidentally reveal his identity.
Second, if the culprit is an outsider, it's safer for us to be together.
- Third...- Third, if there's really a vampire here,
being together is better than fighting alone. Correct?
Yes.
Okay, we'll join.
Then Uncle Wu and I will also join.
Good.
Now, let's survey the area.
Dragon-Slaying Hall
- My lord.- What's the situation?
We received news that that person has appeared.
Pass on my orders: wait and see.
- Also, get to the bottom of this.- Yes.
Vampire.
Department of State Affairs Office
- Your Excellency.- How was it?
- We have received a reply. - Hurry.
- Okay, you may go rest now. - Yes.
Di Renjie, what is your plan?
- What do you think?- This...
Guessing isn't needed for this. The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Wrong.
The culprit's target isn't just Dai Yun, so he's likely to take action again.
This way, at least we can verify whether or not the people around us are the murderer.
Do you think I look like a murderer?
I never think that pretty girls would kill people.
Wanqing, what's wrong? Are you angry?
I'm not angry. That's nothing to get angry over.
Plus, you're right. I'm not pretty.
How could it be? In my heart, you're the prettiest.
What did I say wrong?
Young man, be more careful with your words.
Young Sir Di, I can tell that you really like Miss Wanqing.
Wanqing?
Leader, will we really stay with those kids?
That's right.
Then, our plan...
We'll still go according to the plan.
It's not easy. That kid doesn't seem like a simple character.
Although he's young, he's very experienced. In my opinion, he might be after our money.
Don't you think I can tell? But he's right.
We should stay together. At least it'll be safer.
The first person to die is from our group. No matter who the culprit is, he's after us.
Hey, Leader, is there a problem with Wu Qianqian?
If she's really Mister Wu's daughter, she's harmless. I'm just afraid...
- Didn't her whole family die?- She's not important.
I'm more worried about Di Renjie and Yuanfang.
What is their profession and why are they at this valley?
- Don't worry. At worst, I'll chop them with my sword.- Don't act recklessly.
Haven't you experienced their martial arts? They're definitely not any weaker than us.
Okay.
- Chen Yuan, pay special attention to their actions.- Okay.
- Chen Qi, Brother Jinhai, prepare for action.- Okay.
- This is strange.- What's wrong?
It is very obvious that people lived here.
I heard that after the big fire, many survivors lived here. This isn't strange.
These marks are too messy. It doesn't look like signs from normal everyday living.
That's right. Also, many places were purposefully covered by people.
I think there must be a secret here.
Hey, could the rumored treasures really be here?
If there really are treasures, we'd be rich!
Treasures? Caves?
What's wrong?
Wanqing is right. A secret must be hidden here.
Hey, Er Bao, go to the mountain peak right now and mark down the location of this village and cave.
Okay.
Hey, shh. Listen to me.
Minister Wang, present yourself.
Greetings. Long live Your Majesty.
Minister Wang, you may rise. Why have you come to me?
Your Majesty, currently, we are in need of officials in the court.
Your Majesty, please recall Di Renjie from his travels.
Di Renjie and his friends haven't been gone for long. Why recall them?
I think that Di Renjie is a talent.
If we will use him, he must be trained in the court.
That makes sense, but...
Your Majesty, Minister Zhangsun and Minister Chu are requesting an audience.
It's quite lively here today. Summon them in.
Minister Zhangsun, Minister Chu, present yourselves.
Greetings, Your Majesty.
Ministers, quickly rise.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Why are you three all here today?
Your Majesty, us two are here to pay our respects.
Minister Wang, why are you also here?
I was just discussing with Minister Wang about recalling Di Renjie.
What are you two's opinions on this?
Recall Di Renjie?
Your Majesty, they haven't been traveling a very long time.
Why recall them?
Currently, we are in urgent need of officials, so it is better to begin training them early.
Minister Wang, that is incorrect. Di Renjie and the others have His Majesty's favor.
It is a great honor.
Minister Wang, why are you so worried?
This...
Potential talents like Di Renjie are essential to Great Tang. Asking Di Renjie to observe the citizens' conditions
would be a waste of his skills.
All tasks of an official is for the people and for the country.
Di Renjie is traveling the land and is gathering public opinion.
That is also very beneficial to the country.
Minister Wang, you are too biased.
Then, you mean that...
Enough. Ministers, don't argue anymore.
I will give this issue good thought.
Your Majesty, Wu Meiniang is requesting an audience.
Quickly summon her.
Wu Meiniang, present yourself.
I'm sorry for disturbing Your Excellencies.
It is no problem. My officials have reached a disagreement. Meiniang, we can ask for your opinions.
Your Majesty must be joking. I don't dare to interfere with court business.
- Do not worry. You happen to also know this person.- I know him?
Could it be Di Renjie?
My Meiniang is so smart. That's right, it is him.
What is the disagreement?
Since the court is in need of talents, I believe we should quickly recall Di Renjie,
but Minister Zhangsun and Minister Chu do not agree.
- So that's how it is.- Meiniang, do you understand now?
Please forgive my bluntness, Your Excellencies. I believe that Di Renjie should not be recalled currently.
Oh? Why?
Your Majesty's words are very authoritative. Since you allowed them to travel, you must not break your promise.
Although the court is in need of officials, Di Renjie is not the only option.
We can use this opportunity to train more talents.
One or two people will not affect the court too much.
If we can train more talents like Your Excellencies, it will be beneficial to our Great Tang.
Good! Meiniang is correct.
- Minister Wang.- Here.
We will postpone the issue of recalling Di Renjie.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Minister Zhangsun, what do you think Wu Meiniang is planning?
I'm not sure, either.
This woman solved the problem with only a few words. Quite impressive.
No wonder Consort Li did not want her here.
Looks like Wang Youren has created problems for himself.
Your Excellency,
what should we do up next?
Do not be anxious.
After all, she does not even have a status yet.
Moreover, she helped us today.
That is true.
Your Excellency,
Wang Youren is so bold and shameless.
Everyone knows that his son is traveling with Di Renjie.
If His Majesty recalls Di Renjie for use in the court, they would come back together.
Now that Consort Li has lost His Majesty's favor, he has to find another way to regain his influence.
We must be more alert.
Your Excellencies have not left yet. You are standing as firmly as Mount Tai.
Minister Wang, you are not in a rush, either.
If you two are in the mood, continue with your stroll.
I will be leaving now.
Please.
- What's wrong?- Do you still remember the information on the county annal?
Of course.
Then, before the fire, how much money do you think was in the valley?
If none was removed, I estimate it'll at least fill up this whole cave.
I think the treasures are hidden in one of these caves.
They're also here for the treasures.
You mean, these people are here for money, so...
What are you two talking about?
Oh. We were wondering what the vampire looks like.
Yes.
When I came, I heard people say that the vampire looks like an ordinary human in daylight.
At night, bat wings would appear. They would fly in the sky and walk on land, drinking human blood.
They even hang on trees and in caves, just like bats.
Miss, that is just gossip. Do not believe them.
That's for the best.
After I pay my respects to my parents tomorrow at noon, I will be leaving.
Then, let's leave together.
Brother An, what do you think?
Okay.
Then, let's continue with the rotating guard schedule tonight.
Where are you going?
I'm going to guard at the mountain entrance. It's an unavoidable route.
Will you be fine alone?
I'll be fine. No matter if he's a human or a ghost,
I'll slice him in half with my sword.
I'll also guard at the north. This way, we can watch out for each other.
- If anything happens, we'll whistle to notify each other.- Okay.
Be careful.
Why are you here?
You didn't eat all night,
so I brought food for you.
Who's on duty in the cave?
Chen Qi.
He said things are fine, so he told me to come here.
You must be careful of those people.
Why? Aren't we together?
The culprit is after them,
so it's most dangerous to be with them.
Yuanfang, do you think that vampire really exists?
The possibility is very low. I've already looked on the annal.
There are no records of vampires attacking humans around this area.
According to what you said, the culprit is a human.
If he's a human, then Daiyun's death...
It's true that the injury on his corpse couldn't have been created by an ordinary weapon,
but there is one possibility.
What is it?
His injury looks like it was bitten and torn,
but it could also have been a large animal trap
that chopped off his waist.
These are just guesses. We don't have evidence yet.
Then, when we're together...
We must be careful, especially you. You're too naive.
You believe everything that others say.
I don't.
You don't? You came out and wandered around alone at night.
Don't think about that anymore.
Maybe they will take action again tonight.
Will we leave tomorrow?
Are you unwilling to go?
I don't care.
Then, let's leave.
This is too unlike you.
Unlike me? Then, what am I like?
You... In my heart, you're somebody who would persevere until the end.
Also, you're one of the rare persistent people.
But this time is different. It's not like you.
I didn't think you had such a high opinion of me.
Did you think I'm complimenting you?
You're right. We should leave this place soon.
That's right. This place is too creepy
and frightening.
It's a pity that those treasures...
You're about to lose your life. Why worry about money?
You're right. You're right.
Tomorrow, we'll leave this place.
Have a good sleep tonight, okay?
What is that?
It's behind us!
Yuanfang!
Couldn't you have come earlier?
Actually, I could have came later.
Wanqing, don't chase it. It's too dangerous.
Don't chase him. He seems very powerful.
Did you see him clearly? Is he human or ghost?
He had erratic movement. I don't know if he's a human or a ghost, either.
Young Sir Di, what's wrong?
We met him, but he escaped.
What about Brother Jinhai?
I only saw that thing after hearing the whistle.
Oh, no. Brother Jinhai!
Let's go.
- Brother Jinhai!- Jinhai!
Guo Jinhai!
His sword is here. Where is he?
Don't move.
Only one person's footsteps are here.
If somebody attacked him, why is there only one pair of footsteps on the ground?
Jinhai!
Hurry, get him down!
He's still alive.
Where's Wu Qianqian?
I haven't seen those two since leaving the cave.
Who was on guard tonight?
Me.
You didn't see?
Well... The night looked peaceful, so I fell asleep.
You...
Enough. Don't say anymore.
Let's return to the cave first.
Let's go.
Here, help me.
Here.
Careful.
Where did you two just go?
Uncle Wu and I went to the bottom of the mountain and carried the coffin here.
We're planning to pay my respects tomorrow on the mountain top.
What does it mean to place the coffin here?
We don't mean anything.
My friend is injured.
I think it's all because of you two!
Now, you placed such an unlucky item here.
Why is this?
What do you mean by those words?
Hurry and take this away.
No. If anybody wants to move the coffin, I'll fight him to the death!
You're quite stubborn.
Put down your sword!
Stop arguing, okay?
Uncle Wu.
Wanqing, how is Brother Jinhai?
He's bleeding a lot, but his injuries aren't severe.
Bleeding? Was it a vampire--
We can't confirm now.
His wounds are all tear wounds, not ones created by weapons.
The creature from just now first attacked Brother Jinhai, and then attacked you.
I think so.
I think the whistle that I heard was from Brother Jinhai before he was attacked.
Jinhai! What's wrong? Tell me!
- Big Brother, save me! - What's wrong?
T-There's a ghost.
What ghost?
It was flying all around.
What are you saying? Slow down.
Jinhai!
It's true.
There's a ghost. There's really a ghost!
Young sister, don't be afraid.
I'm not saying nonsense. You heard him, too!
- Don't be scared.- I wanted to leave in the beginning, but you didn't listen.
Shut your mouths! Stop arguing.
Enough.
Miss Wu, you said you just went down the mountain to the village, right?
- Yes.- Then, did you see Jinhai?
No.
Miss Wu, which route did you take to travel down the mountain?
The mountain entrance, but I didn't see him.
When was this?
Four hours ago.
Four hours ago?
The vampire attacked you one hour ago.
The times don't match.
If Brother Jinhai was attacked earlier and fainted,
and then whistled after waking up,
the vampire had probably been watching us for a long time.
No matter what, after this incident,
nobody is to leave this cave tonight.
If we don't take that coffin away, I'm not sleeping here.
Hey, look at you.
You're a grown man, but you're making things difficult for a woman. What kind of ability is that?
Easy for you to say.
People from your group are fine,
but I have one dead friend and one injured friend.
I think it's all due to this coffin's bad luck!
In short, if we don't remove it, I won't agree!
You won't do it, right?
Fine, I'll do it myself.
- Move away!- No way.
You won't move, right?
I'll stab you with my sword!
Don't you dare.
Brother, it's not a suitable time to use your sword.
Chen Qi.
Put away your sword.
How about this? There's another cave close by.
We'll move the coffin there.
If something happens, we can take care of each other.
Is this okay?

Fine.
Why are you here alone at such an early hour?
Brother Di.
Too many things happened recently.
I need some quiet.
Aren't you afraid of the danger?
No.
Anyway, I have nothing left.
You have nothing left?
Actually, I escaped from home.
I've always been living in my uncle's house.
A little while ago, my uncle arranged for me to marry his son.
I was unwilling, so I ran out with Uncle Wu.
Another one escaping her marriage.
What?
Nothing.
Then, what are your plans for the future?
Other than my uncle's house, I have no other place to go.
I don't know about the future yet.
Brother Di, what about you guys?
Us?
You don't seem to be here for money or to hide from debt.
Why did you come here?
Didn't I already tell you?
Don't lie to me.
Actually, we're here to travel.
We heard about the valley's rumor, so we came here out of curiosity.
Travel?
Aren't you afraid of the vampires?
If vampires really exist,
then I'll beat him up and roast his meat to eat. I'll give you half.
Your Highness, Minister of State Affairs is here.
Father, you're here.
How has your body been?
All thanks to your concern, father, I am fine.
Her Highness hasn't been sleeping well at night.
Her throat problem has worsened, but refuses to allow us to summon a physician.
Xiao Zhao.
Father, why are you here?
Your Highness, your health is important.
I am fine. Father, do not worry.
Di Renjie has been traveling the lands.
Your young brother, Yuanfang, is also there.
I heard that Di Renjie is smart and has extraordinary fighting skills.
It is good that Brother can befriend somebody like him.
They are sworn brothers, traveling and learning together.
Father, why are you in distress?
Your Highness must not know.
I heard that they are currently in a desolated valley.
There are even vampires there.
They can kill people in a short moment.
Do vampires truly exist? They are not rumors?
Your Highness, your mother died early.
I only have you and your brother left.
I cannot be without either of you,
so I would rather believe it to be true than to deny it.
Father, ask His Majesty to summon Di Renjie and his friends back to the capital.
I already tried, but Zhangsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, those two old men, blocked my plan.
Plus, the despicable Wu Meiniang added fuel to the fire.
His Majesty already said he will not recall them.
How could this be?
So I am here to ask Your Highness to try and save your younger brother.
Father, go back to rest first.
I will try to think of a solution.
Your Highness, please take care of yourself.
It is time we go meet this definite beauty.
Wanqing, why are you here?
I was just walking around.
Why didn't you call me along?
- You were busy.- I'm not busy.
I will go prepare some funeral sacrifices.
You two can talk.
Okay.
You're angry.
I'm not.
I've been very happy this morning.
Plus, we're both minding our own business. Why would I be angry?
Oh. If you're not angry, then you're jealous.
I'm not jealous!
Go away.
Young Master!
Young Master.
- Young Master.- Turns out, Wanqing is very cute when she's jealous.
- Somebody has gone missing.- What?
- Somebody is missing.- What?
Guo Jinhai and Chen Qi are gone.
What's going on?
Chen Yuan and I were gathering firewood.
When we returned, those two were gone.
- Yuanfang, what were you doing?- Mengyao and I were helping Uncle Wu move the coffin.
Er Bao, what about you?
I... I was asleep. Young Master, you know that.
Two people went missing, and you tell me that you were asleep?
Also, I checked the surroundings.
There are no signs of fighting.
That's not right. It's impossible that no signs are left behind.
Brother Jinhai was so severely injured.
Under these circumstances, he would be heavier than usual.
I don't think they've gone far.
This cave extends in many different directions...
Unless they didn't come from the outside. They live inside this cave.
Oh, no.
These are the unmarked graves, right?
Yes. After that big fire, the whole village was basically all burned.
Many families died,
and the bodies were hard to identify.
Their corpses could only be buried together.
Strange. The coffin is here. Why are those two?
That's right. Plus, all the sacrifices are here.
The coffin hasn't been buried. Why is that?
Also, one thing is missing.
What is missing?
The memorial tablet.
Also, there are two sets of footprints here.
The scene is very orderly, with no sign of fighting, but...
That's right. The footprints outside 10 steps are all gone.
Could they have flown away?
What are you looking at?
I'm seeing if there are other signs.
Could it be...
It must have been the vampires.
Why are we still here, then?
Stop!
Nobody can leave now.
That's right. We can't take action alone.
Then, what do you think we should do?
Find them.
Find them? How?
My friends are almost all dead.
How do you know that they're dead?
I...
This valley isn't big.
The only place to hide is the caves.
We have only explored a third of all the caves.
It is not close to nightfall yet.
Let's search for them first.
If my men can disappear in the morning,
it means that that creature can also appear in daylight.
That's why we must stay together.
