Episode 20
Chief Lu
In this world, there are only two people who can touch my hair
One, my husband
Two, the dead
Head of the Huo family
If I have offended you
Please do forgive me
That's alright
In the future if you are making your way around
I hope that Chief Lu
Will learn about my rules first
You are indeed an outstanding individual amongst women
Your clarity of thought is so apparent
It is just that Zhang Qi Shan
Looks down on everyone
A character like you
How would you bow down to that willingly?
Even if I am not willing
Zhang Qi Shan is far too powerful
I, just one of the Gates, how can I compete with him?
I have a friend
Who just wants to get rid of Zhang Qi Shan
Is he one of the Nine Gates?
If he hopes to be
He will be one of them very soon
there is a rule amongst the Nine Gates
If he can get rid of the head of any one Gate
He will be able to replace them
I will help him, thank you for your suggestion
Fo Ye
I can't do this, I can't do this
If we keep going like this
When will we ever reach an end
All of you rest for now
Have a drink of water, we'll continue in a while
Lieutenant, give me a drink of water
I'm dying of thirst
Fo Ye look
The corners of my mouth are crusting
Here, have a drink
Fo Ye
Earlier we've walked the depth of a few floors
Logically, a mine shaft like this
Should get damper the deeper down you go
But it becomes drier and drier
I can't figure out why
That's right, this place is definitely strange
When you're done drinking, we'll keep going
What did the head of the Huo family say?
She said
If you want to take down Zhang Da Fo Ye
You have to speak as one of the Nine Gates
What does that mean?
She said there is a rule among the Nine Gates
Whoever
Can topple one of the heads of the other Gates
Can replace them
You understand the inner-workings of the Nine Gates better than I do
Speak then, which Gate do you want to move in on?
How about Lao San (No. 3) then?
I reckon you can't touch the first two either
San Ye
Is the most vicious character in all of Changsha
Do you want me to die so soon?
Aside from the Huo Family
You may take your pick
Liu Ye's (No. 6) sword is too fast
There is no need for me to take that risk
Although Jiu Ye's fighting skills aren't good
But he is good at calculations
I reckon I won't even be able to get close to him
Gou Wu Ye (No. 5), I'm not afraid of
But his dogs
Are too numerous, with a keen sense of smell
Before I kill him
I'll have to kill tens of dogs
Speaking like this
There's only Si Ye (No. 4) left
Although Si Ye's fighting skills aren't bad
But his enemies are numerous
So he is very wary
He is followed around by a group of guards
And two skilled individuals stick by him, serving him
Wherever he goes, they'll tread first
When someone enters and leaves a room
They'll be searched carefully
If Si Ye won't do
Who will do?
Who says Si Ye won't do?
I'll just pick him
Si Ye is most fond of pretences
As long as Chief Lu invites him
He will most definitely come
I will ask him out tomorrow
But everything else
I will leave it to you
Stop
Fo Ye, there's no road ahead of us
Since there's no road
Let's go back then!
Fo Ye, do you think this was caused by the actions of men
Or nature?
Based on the thickness here
It should have been caused by men
By men?
You mean to say
Someone deliberately blew this apart here?
Intended by the heavens!
Fo Ye!
We cannot disobey the heavens
Let's really return then
Shut up
The larger the tomb, the more interconnected it is
If this road does not work, let's find another one
It's alright
Come over
Er Ye
Lieutenant, throw the luggage over
Okay
Fo Ye, there is no road ahead
Everyone, have a rest here
Yes
That's great!
I can finally take a breather
I'm dead exhausted
Fo Ye, have a biscuit?
I won't eat, you keep it and eat it slowly
I'll eat, I'll eat, I'll eat! I'll eat it!
I'm dying of hunger
What have you discovered?
This is a mark of my family
When my ancestors passed this spot
They left this mark
To send a message
It is safe here
Then, there is Er Ye's family's mark here
Will it mean that the road from here on will be safer?
Conversely I feel that this is when the danger really starts
So from this point on
No matter what happens later
We absolutely must not panic
Yes
Fo Ye, come have a look!
There's a stone tablet here
As for what is written on it
I can't read it clearly
Based on my analysis
This tombstone should not be here
If my guess isn't wrong
On it, there should be information about this ancient grave
But
This tombstone shouldn't be here
Can you clearly read
What it says on the stone?
It's all been destroyed by someone
You can't see anything at all
That's strange
It was perfectly alright, why break it?
Was this done by your ancestors?
No
Those from my family would not have done such a thing
Regardless of who did this
It is very obvious
That the person didn't want us to find out more about this tomb
Really, the more they try to hide it, the clearer their intentions seem
It seems like
They really want to hide something
Move it aside
Fo Ye!
It's- it's definitely a trap in there!
We can't enter!
If it were a trap that my ancestors laid
I should be able to see it through
This should just be a hole that was abandoned
Remain here
Us three will go in
Er Ye
A trap..
Fo Ye
Let's walk on a bit more
Fo Ye
Let's split up and look around
Er Ye, come come come! Come!
Er Ye, Er Ye!
Shine here, look at what this is!
My goodness
Fo Ye
This should be the laboratory that the Japanese left behind?
I didn't expect the Japanese to have created such a place in here
It seems like your prediction really came true
Let's search carefully
See if we can find anything useful
Er Ye, come have a look here!
Japanese, do you understand it?
Fo Ye, there are lots of Japanese materials here
Come and have a look
Look
There's so much
Do you understand Japanese?
Fo Ye look here
This should be
The materials that the Japanese didn't manage to destroy before they escaped
This should be the floor plan of the mine shaft
Look here
The road that we just took
My goodness, this drawing is really detailed
Look
There are a few symbols here
What do these mean?
I think, only the person who created it will know
But now that we have it
We can take it
And look over the points we just passed
We can then guess what those symbols mean
Let's continue searching
And see if we can find others
Okay
Under there, aside from maps, were there no other things?
The Japanese left many materials in there
But basically
It's useless
These Japanese
Had even set up camp here
Exactly so
They really don't think of themselves as outsiders
These symbols
What exactly do they mean?
We haven't figured out the situation in this mine cave
So when we enter
Everyone must absolutely not be curious
If you meet with an accident because of your curiosity
Not only will you suffer
But you will implicate everyone else
Pack your things, follow me
Yes, sir!
Welcome welcome, please come in, please
Please
Go slowly
This way, this way
We're here
Chief, they're here
Si Ye
Waiter, serve some good tea
Okay!
Si Ye, your family and business are great
Naturally you are a distinguished busy man
Today, being able to take time out of your busy schedule to see me
It really was not a waste of my invitation
I am most afraid of trouble
Originally I'd hate to have any dealings with you officials
Chief Lu
Today I have truly given you this full honour
Yes
I've long heard that Si Ye you are an exemplary character
Paying no attention to worldly affairs
I have only just arrived here
If there is anything I have not done well
Please Si Ye, do advise me
Si Ye, if you aren't disdainful of that
Do accept me, as your friend
Then I have to see if you, Chief Lu
Are worthy of this
Okay, Si Ye, please enter
Si Ye, your manner is that of a true hero
I'm afraid that I, even if I wanted to learn it I would never be able to
Based on what I can see
Even if one day Si Ye became head of the Nine Gates
It wouldn't be too much
That is natural
I just don't want to fight over things with the others in the Nine Gates
Otherwise, based on my skills
How would they be my match?
Si Ye's dominance
I really can't help but admire that
Chief Lu
What would you like to say, please speak directly
Refreshing
Si Ye knows too
Now in this time, the situation is not peaceful
There are a number of Japanese agents who have entered the city
Am not someone who is a captain either
I just hope that this Changsha city can be peaceful
And not down any of its people
Chief Lu
What would you like me to do?
Now it is a critical time
I would like to gather a number of men of insight
To accomplish something
Changsha is filled with talent
I want to
Ask for some men from Si Ye
To form, a distinguished force
Si Ye, see this Changsha
Si Ye
Your men keep staring at me
I really feel rather uncomfortable
Si Ye, you are
Si Ye, I, have my own rules
Chief Lu, you won't embarrass me right?
How could I?
Si Ye
A chef recently arrived at this Chang Xing Restaurant
I've heard that his skills at shelling crabs are first-rate
Those fresh crabs, crack open with one lift
Pouring on that bubbling rice wine
That taste!
I can't describe how fresh it is!
How about that, Si Ye?
Shall we try it?
Let's try it!
Stop
Si Ye
The dishes at Chang Xing Restaurant are excellent
Si Ye, the crab is here
Let's try it quickly
Really? Let me taste how it is
Good! Come, come
I knew there was something about you from the start
Now you're trying to kill me
Get him!
Let's go
Go? Si Ye
But we have not eaten the crab yet
Go eat it in hell!
Leave first
Someone come! Come!
Si Ye has been murdered! Someone come!
Why have you only just come?!
He has already escaped through the window!
What are you standing here for?!
Go after him! Go!
Lao Si, Lao Si
I overestimated you
You can't even deal with one Chen Pi
Rather, I've underestimated Chen Pi
Not bad, he's someone who'll do great things
While he can still be overpowered
I must use him wisely
Lieutenant, take a look at the map
Okay
Aren't we here in the map?
There's a red flag marking here
I think it's better if we walk this way
Let's walk this way
Come!
Let's go!
Stop, stop, stop! Fo Ye
Look!
It's another statue of the Mother of Heaven
What must be
Must be
We'll still have to get past this
Why
Old Master and Chen Pi
With no recent resentment
Nor past hatred
Why must he be so cruel?
Chen Pi is cruel
He does things without any consideration
This time
I will not let this go
Madame, rest assure
I have gathered Si Ye's men
We can leave anytime
Good
You must remember
Be fast
Even though Chen Pi murdered Lao Ye
Lao Ye's martial arts skills are not weak
Chen Pi must be injured now too
We must take this chance
To kill him quick
And take revenge for Lao Ye
Yes, Madame!
I have sent others to look for Chen Pi
Once there is a reply
We'll make a move immediately
Is there a reply yet?
Not yet
After he murdered Si Ye
He disappeared
He disappeared?
Continue looking!
There's no need to keep looking!
I am here!
Si Ye has already died by my hands
Are you all seeking death?
Brothers, get him!
You're not afraid of me?
Afraid of you?
You murdered our Lao Ye
I wish I could eat your flesh
And drink your blood!
It seems like you
Love Si Ye very much
Since it's this way
I'll send you to him
Lao Ye
I can't take revenge for you
I'll come and accompany you now
Ge Ge, don't bully my mother
I'll give you my noodles
Eat whilst kneeling down
Mistress
Do you only know how to make noodles?
There're crabs, but we still have to eat noodles
What's that? You're being picky?
No
The things that Mistress cooks
However much I eat it, I won't get tired of it
Even if there were no crab roe
It would be the tastiest thing I've ever eaten
You, spend more time on practising your skills
Don't just talk
If you want to kill, kill me
Please spare my daughter
You guys can go
I don't want to see you in Changsha city
Mistress
I saw a little girl today
She is very similar to you
Zhang Qi Shan killed you
I will surely seek revenge for you
So it is magma down there
No wonder it gets drier as we go down
Fo Ye
What are these weird things?
These things
Are probably not those things that attacked us previously
What is this?
Are they all alive??
This should be a type of plant
They start attacking humans by knowing human temperature
Is this
Man-eating bacteria?
Everyone be careful
Do not touch them
Fo Ye
Since this is so dangerous
We should just set them on fire and burn them
We can't, Fo Ye
We did not bring enough fuel
And we aren't sure how long the route after this will be
They are perhaps guarding the caves
If they are able to stop us now
They will also be able to stop those people with bad intentions
Keeping them here
Will be useful in the future
Everybody follow me
Be careful
Don't touch the things on the ground
Be careful
Pull me
Be careful, be very careful
Fo Ye!
Don't move!
Go!
Go! Quickly!
Go!
I've caught you, Fo Ye
Come and help quickly!
Hand!
Fo Ye! Fo Ye!
Are you alright?
Are you guys alright?
Yes, we're alright, alright
Fo Ye
If there's a next time
I hope that Fo Ye won't take risks again because of me
I forced you into this
I need to ensure your safety
I believe that if you were me
You would save me as well, right?
This price is okay
Can't buy it with this price
Chief Lu
Our Boss gave an order
Saying that he won't meet anybody today
Why?
Your Boss Chen is badly injured?
No, no
Our Boss
He didn't tell us either
I got it
I want to go in and take a look
Chief Lu, Chief Lu, you can't enter!
You two... You can't enter!
Boss Chen
Chief Lu
Boss
Chief Lu barged his way in
Can't stop him
I got you to stop unwanted visitors
Not to stop Chief Lu
Leave
Yes
This is too nice of Boss Chen
I came today
To visit you
After all, you had a big battle yesterday
I am afraid that I will have to disappoint Chief Lu
We wanted to make a living using knives
With rough skin and thick flesh
It is not easy to get injured
It is good that Boss Chen isn't injured
You guys don't know
It was such a desperate situation yesterday
Lao Si, who was a member of the Nine Gates
He is quite a character too
He has a suspicious nature
I tried my best to talk
But was unable to send the two bodyguards beside him away
Also
He saw through Boss Chen's disguise immediately
I was so worried then
So what if he recognised me?
People whom I want to kill
Can't escape at all
Speaking of this
How did Boss Chen think of
Having the nine-claw hook fly in from outside of the window
And yesterday's success
Was all thanks to the nine-claw hook
Good weapons
Must be prepared well
However, I must still thank Chief Lu for yesterday
Had Chief Lu not push him towards me
It wouldn't have been as successful
You and I formed an alliance
We should help each other
Boss Chen
It was too dangerous yesterday
I didn't have time to ask you
If you were injured or not
I came here today
Seeing that you are uninjured and unharmed
Makes me feel relieved
Chief Lu, please do not worry
Even if Zhang Qi Shan is in front of me now
I would still be able to kill him
Boss Chen is indeed almighty
But, since you are Er Yue Hong's disciple
Er Yue Hong's strength is in those metal bullets
I didn't expect
Your strength to be in the
Nine-claw hook
When did Chief Lu become interested in these things?
I was just randomly asking a question
When wandering across all corners of the country
One will naturally have more strengths like these
