Episode 17
Remember,
death
doesn't belong to the working class.
You must...
Get out of here alive.
Get out of here. Alive.
Don't say that.
We're here with you.
Such a poor child.
Gotta find some cure.
Can't let her die like this in the dark room.
The poison has traveled into her marrows.
What cure could save her?
What's the use of crying?!
Hu
If we can't find the poison's antidote,
Ding will die for sure.
Uncle Yang...
Anyway, can't let our most important comrade sacrifice.
Now it's not the mourning time.
As long as we're still alive,
don't give up!
Hurry!
Fatty! Fatty!
Hu!
Fatty!
Let me go!
Calm down! Calm down!
Listen to me!
Listen to me.
Now...
Now the most important thing,
is, to find the antidote for Ding.
Then,
we'll get out of here alive.
Get it?
Why are you still standing there?! Back off!
Block the door.
Okay.
Come, fatty.
Hu
Take this.
Hurry, back off!
Hurry, back off! Hurry!
Hu
Behind you.
Hu
The corpses inside are the same as those outside.
What should we do now?
Get inside first.
Let's go! Let's go!
This way, come up.
Hu, look at this!
What's this?
My god...
The Xianbei Nationality's witch.
The Xianbei Nationality's witch...

Ding! Ding! Ding!
God!
When will this end?!
Can we get out or not?
If can't, let us die immediately.
Don't use these creepy things to scare us.
Yanzi
Don't cry.
Yes.
The corpse ginseng usually dells underground.
Wouldn't attack humans.
Unless there's something pissing it off.
What do you mean?
I can't explain it.
But I always feel there's something wrong.
This is the entrance of the hell.
If you want to be alive,
shut up.
Can this girl be saved?
As long as I'm alive,
she will be alive!
Fatty, hurry! Find the antidote!
Hu!
Push!
Weasel heads.
Made of bronze.
Everything accords.
I heard the blind aunt say,
treasures in the box,
are more worth than gold and silver.
Such a shabby stuff?
I can find a bunch of this in Panjiayuan antique malls.
Gimme!
Don't open it!
Let go!
If you open it, we all will die!
Huamei!
No!
What are you doing?!
Are you addicted to fighting?!
If you open it,
bigger disaster will come!
To save life!
Don't open it!
You don't understand!
Stop her!
Let go!
Don't open it!
It can save lives!
Don't open it!
Huamei!
Don't open it!
Hurry! The bag!
Gimme!
Bag!
Gimme!
Come here!
Let me go!
Are you afraid of death?!
I'm not.
But I don't wanna ask for it.
The box is small.
But I can tell that it's very powerful and magical!
The Japanese who died in the secret passage wanted to escape.
Why?
Bullshit!
Fine.
So many people have died here for no reason.
Is it because they've opened the box?
We're not dead now.
Is it because we haven't opened it yet?
Ever since we entered this research institution,
we've been near death for so many times!
And it won't be an exception this time!
I'll put the box here.
Open it or not, up to you!
Hu, this box...
Whatever!
Find the antidote.
Hu
The antidote is some injection, potion or pills?
I don't know. All of them are possible.
I'd rather you didn't say anything.
All foreign characters. Can't read it.
Fatty, look carefully.
Some Japanese characters are similar to Chinese ones.
Let's split up.
You, that way. Me, this way.
Okay.
Any findings?
Seems no.
What about you?
Me, neither.
I was told,
the thing in the box can bring you back to life
once you eat it.
Qiaoshan told you that?
None of your business.
You silly girl.
That thing cannot save any lives.
Then what's the use of it?
To summon spirits of the dead.
Open it,
then the dead can come back to life.
Impossible.
That bastard Qiaoshan speaks nothing but lies.
Back then, his lower body got hurt.
Can't give birth.
You took a bad guy as your dad.
Yet you still don't realize it.
Then why...
Did he bring me up?
In 1949, the mountains were covered with heavy snow.
He gave me the last portion of food.
Then went downhill to find more.
When I was possessed by weasels,
he's already old,
yet he went to hunt the bear.
If I'm not his biological daughter,
why did he save me?
It's because he's taking advantage of your Fate.
Fate?
One in ten thousand.
He raised you.
So one day, you could open the copper box.
It was in the Yuan Dynasty (A.D. 1271-1368).
The Xianbei Nationality's witch found the place where the turtle sleeps.
It was surrounded by mountains with water and grains.
Very livable.
So the witch developed her forces thereby.
The royal court feared that they would grow too powerful to control.
So they started to siege them.
At last, the witch ended up defeated.
Before her death,
she told her people to leave with the box.
And have at least a descendant every generation.
One day, when her heir gets found,
girls born at zero o'clock, on the 38th day of the 38th month,
in the year of dog every sixty years,
she would possess her by the weasel fairy's spirit.
To open the box in the place where the turtle sleeps.
So spirits of her dead people can be summoned back.
When coming back to life, they would rebuild their forces.
After the witch died,
her people scattered here and there.
Some became bandits.
Nicknamed as the Clay Society.
Later, descendants of the Clay Society
never gave up on looking for the witch's heir.
Until the Japanese arrived...
When they heard the legend,
they also wanted to find the way
to summon spirits of their dead soldiers.
To reinforce their army and occupy the entire China.
Didn't expect that they found the place so soon.
And built a research institute there.
They also found people of the Clay Society.
Saying they could help them restore their forces.
Then the Japanese used them to find the box.
But went back on their word after getting the box.
The Japanese killed Yang Er'dan's brothers.
To take revenge on the Japanese,
Yang Er'dan opened the box when there wasn't the heir.
Then died with the Japanese.
Later, didn't expect that Yang Er'dan's wife
gave birth to a girl at zero o'clock on the 38th day of the 38th month
in the year of dog.
When Qiaoshan heard the news,
he took away the girl and raised her.
For one day,
that girl could open the box
to help him summon thousands of ghost soldiers.
To revitalize the Clay Society.
Daughter
Were you born at that very moment?
Cut it out.
That's impossible.
I don't believe that.
I swear to Grassland God,
I will die miserably if I lied for a single world!
That's impossible.
Impossible.
Gosh.
Such a big lizard.
Look down.
This is not a lizard.
But boa bones.
Hu
This is much more bigger than the one in the furnace.
Look, the medicinal liquor with the boa,
could it be the antidote?
Everything has another thing to solve it.
Haven't heard one thing can be solved by itself.
Boa bones can't remove boa poison.
This is a common sense.
Hu
We're poisoned by the ginseng.
Fatty
We kinda will die here.
Do you remember,
Back then, I fought alone with that bastard in Dongsi.
Almost got killed by him.
At that time,
all people stood around us and watched.
Only you came to me.
And told me.
If you died,
I shall die with you.
Then without second thoughts,
you joined the fight with a brick.
From then on,
I took you as my best friend.
Actually, I regretted it at the very moment.
Don't know from where I got that kind of impulsive.
Hu
we've been friends for so many years.
Worth it.
But you're really some bastard.
I asked you to do me a favor.
But you haven't accomplished it till now.
Ding
You must save her anyway.
You owe me that.
I'll repay now.
What's this?
Gecko. Big gecko. Here, take this.
How did you know this thing can detoxify?
We'll know it after a try.
I was bit by a poisonous scorpion in childhood.
With the arm swollen like a bucket.
Later, I was sent into the hospital to cut the arm.
Is it opened now?
Come. Come.
Okay.
Come, lift the lid.
Then you got recovered after eating such a gecko?
Come, Fatty.
Look here.
This is called Qihongxiang.
My grandpa told me,
a can of Qihongxiang in the room,
can deter all the snakes and insects.
Mojin Xiaowei also knows this?
Yin, Yang, Geomancy,
drugs and diagnoses,
are interrelated after all.
Hope you're reliable this time.
Come, water.
