Episode 21
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
Boss Chen has indeed opened my eyes
You all don't know
Although I was there yesterday
But Boss Chen's movements were so fast
That I didn't see anything clearly
That's right, us few, have never seen Boss Chen's incredible skill
We are really incredibly curious
Say, in the military we're all using guns now
How could we have thought
That there's fighting skill more impressive than the gun
If that were true
Then wouldn't our training have been in vain?
You !
Have you gotten a clear look now?
You don't know the ways of the world
Boss Chen wanted to open your eyes
I don't know if my skill with the metal bullets
Has satisfied Chief Lu?
Satisfied, of course I'm satisfied
I didn't think that Boss Chen
Isn't just good with the nine-claw hook
But you are brilliant with the metal bullets too
I'm just afraid
That you would be even faster than my gun
No one move! Don't move! Don't move!
I'd originally just wanted Boss Chen to have a look at my skills with the gun
But you are so calm
So I shan't show off in front of the real master
Chief Lu jokes
Your skills with the gun are naturally impressive
Since Boss Chen is alright
Then I can relax
Bid you farewell
Go well, I shan't see you out
Why are there so many coffins here?
Aren't these all things we're familiar with?
There must be a clue here, with so many coffins around
Everyone spread out and search
Yes
This Chen Pi, is really brazen
You've really embarrassed me completely today!
Chief, I wasn't paying attention then
Chen Pi's movements are really too quick
If he isn't quick, how could he have killed Lao Si?!
This person's skills are so strong
If he doesn't fall in line
Will that be unfavourable to us?
How could Chen Pi possibly be helping me sincerely?
Er Yue Hong is his Master
A Master for a day, a Father for life
And yet today he's actually made him his enemy
A person like this, how could he be loyal to me?
Then., then what should we do?
But now it's different
We have a common enemy
He absolutely wants to bring down Zhang Qi Shan
Just based on that
He will have to follow my arrangements
But don't worry
He is someone with limits
Otherwise today
What he would have hit to the ground
Wouldn't have just been your hat
But your head
Would he dare?
What wouldn't he dare to do?
In this world, the only one who can control him
Is long dead
His Mistress?
That's right
It's just that woman
He wants to kill Zhang Qi Shan
Is just to seek revenge for his Mistress
He's quite infatuated isn't he
A good man caught in difficult circumstances, with long-lasting love
What a waste of his good skills
But it is precisely because of this
That he can be used by me1
That's right
Anyone
Can't escape Chief
However strong that Chen Pi is
He is really just a local gangster
I came today
To let him know
Who is the real master
You really should have shaken him
Otherwise
He might believe that by killing Lao Si of the Nine Gates
He's unstoppable
So what if your your fighting skills are strong?
In this world today
The gun talks
Work hard on practising your skills with the gun
It must be faster than his metal bullets!
Don't worry Chief!
We will definitely, train harder!
Yes! O"
I want to see
Whether Chen Pi's metal bullets are faster
Or my gun is quicker
Do you really think that he came to visit me today?
He wants to take my life whilst I'm injured
Boss spare my life!
That Lu Jian Xun
He came too quickly
I really couldn't stop him!
Go!
Boss, spare me! Boss!
Boss spare my life!
In the future you must be clear on who your master is
Those who dare have dealings with Lu Jian Xun
Will be killed without pardon
Yes
Boss, your skills are powerful
That Lu Jian Xun wouldn't dare do anything to you
Lu Jian Xun
Clearly just wanted to show you a thing or two today
But
Was scared away by the metal bullets in your hands
That's right, that's right
Wanting to make a fool of me
It won't be that easy
Boss
That Lu Jian Xun really doesn't know how to behave
Shall we teach him a thing or two?
I still need him
Zhang Qi Shan's influence in Changsha is great
I have to borrow his strength
That's right too
He is someone from the military
So what if he is?
If I can kill Zhang Qi Shan
Naturally I can kill that Lu Jian Xun too
Then today, we'll spare his life
After we've finished Zhang Qi Shan
Then we'll deal with him
I'm not in a rush
If I can seek revenge for Mistress
I have plenty of patience
Boss is wise!
How is it?
Have you discovered anything?
Not yet
These coffins
Do not belong here
The Japanese dug them out from the mines
They found this place
And temporarily stored it here
That's right, a large burial like this
Is really rarely seen
The more important thing, look
These coffins were all haphazardly placed
The deeper you go
The mud above it gets more and more
Look at that coffin
It's deeply buried in the soil
It should have been caused by a cave-in
Everyone get ready
Let's go
Let's keep going on
How is it?
Fo Ye
We found a few places that look like exits
But they've all been blown up and caved in
What? Caved in?
Meaning to say
In the past, this place was controlled by traps
As expected, something came in here once
And triggered the traps
Blowing up and destroying all the openings
So scary
What are you scared of?
It proves that we're in the right place, right?
Yes
This place, may lead deeper
That's right
But there is no road ahead now
How do we go on?
If there is no road ahead
Let us dig another path out
We can't waste the skills our ancestors left us with
I understand
A few people, come here
Look at the map
Are there any clues?
Shovel
We should be here
Fo Ye
Didn't I say that
These red, places with red crosses
Must be very dangerous
The marks of our ancestors.
A narrow escape from death
Since we're here
We can't give up, right?
Torch
Fo Ye, we're through
Continue Di in Di it o en
This should be the exit
Okay, continue, here!
(Huo Mansion)
What did you say?
Chen Pi killed who?
Si Ye
So he's the one working with Lu Jian Xun
Then that is indeed a bit troublesome
That's right
Chen Pi is skilled at fighting
I heard
Si Ye lost his life immediately
He's a disciple of Er Ye
Naturally his fighting skills won't be ordinary
And Er Ye treats people well
It seems like
Towards his disciple
He didn't hide anything from him either
It's a pity about Si Ye
He's always so careful
Bringing a group of guards onto the streets
Yet he still died by Chen Pi's hands
Say whatever it is you want to say
Madame
This Si Ye
Is after all the Si Ye of the Nine Gates
Are you asking me
Why I prompted Lu Jian Xun
To help Chen Pi ascend to that position?
Lu Jian Xun came in a menacing way
He has a strong background
I couldn't offend him
If I didn't offer sincerity
And express my goodwill
Then the one who would have died today
Wouldn't have been Si Ye
But I, Huo San Niang
Is he really that scary?
What do you think?
Today, I am the head of the Huo family
I carry all of the Huo family's responsibilities on my shoulders
I must not die
I'm afraid that this Lu Jian Xun and Chen Pi
Aren't going to be easy to deal with
Now the one they hate is Zhang Qi Shan
Before they bring down Zhang Qi Shan
We are all people on the same boat
has always oppressed the Huo family
So I must overturn him
This is my responsibility as head of this family
I can only disappoint Si Ye
Oh that's right
How is it at the Si Ye mansion now?
In reply to Madame
It's all empty now
What?!
Chen Pi killed all the way to Si Ye's mansion
And injured all of Si Ye's men
But
Let Si Ye's wife and child go
Chen Pi actually didn't kill them all?
I'm not clear
I heard that after Chen Pi left
Si Ye's wife brought their daughter and left the city
Okay
Is there any news from Zhang Qi Shan's side?
No
They should still be in the tomb
There's a ghost! A ghost!
What are you doing?
Where is there a ghost?!
Whoever dares disrupt the morale of the army
Will be punished by military law!
Not hitting the skull, but hitting the fishing line instead
Fo Ye, your power of sight is great
This was a trap
Don't scare yourself
And go into chaos again
Yes
Fo Ye, listen
This sound has come again
It seems like we've heard this sound before
But it disappeared very quickly
Fo Ye, have everyone put down their lamps
Let's go up and have a look
Put all your lamps down
Get up to the ceiling of the cave
Yes, sir!
Fo Ye, what about me? Er Ye?
What about me? How do I get up there?
Here
Okay okay
I'm up
I'm up, Fo Ye
What is this?
Don't speak
Fo Ye! Be careful!
What about me-1 !
Fo Ye!
Fo Ye, have mercy!
Mister, mister!
Are you okay?
I won't hurt you
Mister!
Fo Ye, he's a human
Jumping out suddenly like that, are you trying to scare me to death?
That's right!
I thought he was a monster
Scared me to death, really
Are you alright?
Mister!
He may not be able to hear
That's right!
We're talking to you!
And he can't see either
He's also blind?
Fo Ye!
Er Ye, are you alright?
Fo Ye
This blind man ran so quickly?!
This old man
Is very familiar with the situation here
Fo Ye, look at this string of bells
If I've guessed correctly
This old man
Is definitely an old miner here
His eyes
Must have been blinded by someone
It must have been the Japanese
These mines were bought by the Japanese
Let's keep going ahead and have a look
Supporting the bow with the left
Placing the arrow with the right
Shooting it into the air
Why does he know how to sing this?
Fo Ye, this is my family's song
Why do you know how to sing this?
Who taught you this?
Why do you know how to sing this song?
Speak!
Er Ye, calm down
Fo Ye
My family's ancestors
Came here once too
But none survived
All died
I really want to know
What exactly happened back then
Fo Ye
I think this old man
Is rather confused
This old man must have been trapped here for many years
He has never interacted with outsiders before
Trapped in this mine?
I- this pitch black and shadowy, incomparably narrow place?
Even a regular person
Would have gone crazy trapped in here
Why does he keep singing that one line?
That's strange..
Er Ye
Quick sing along to match him!
Even when he's confused
He remembers how to sing this line
Which means to say this line is very important to him!
Supporting the bow with the left, with the right..
Three metres, three metres, three metres!
Three metres
What's that?
He seems to be saying that he dug three metres
Looking at this crazy old man
Fo Ye
I think we can't find out anything from asking him
Fresh flowers! Selling flowers!
Please enjoy
Madame Huo
This is Chen Pi, Boss Chen
Chief Lu, you must have forgotten
This Boss Chen, was once Er Ye's disciple
He is considered as one of the Nine Gate's men
I naturally have met him before
Yes yes yes
Boss Chen was once a little disciple of Er Ye's
Keeping a low profile
I didn't expect
That you've become quite a character
That's something to celebrate!
Madame Huo, you're too polite
There are many people in the Huo family
It isn't easy for you to have become the boss
What do you mean?
Whatever it is you mean
Is exactly what I mean
They all say that water flows to lower grounds
People walk towards higher ground
Now that both of you, all have such limitlessly bright futures
That is something to celebrate!
In the Nine Gates there is indeed a rule
Capable ones can replace others
But it is just that
Someone like Boss Chen, who acts so viciously
Is really rare
I didn't expect that Madame Huo
As head of the family
Would be so soft-hearted
If I recall correctly
This idea came from you
Boss Chen, please do not misunderstand
I just wanted to remind you
That with such a big scene you made
Aren't you afraid of being discovered?
Don't forget
You still have an arrest warrant out for you
There is a warrant
It was put out by Zhang Qi Shan
Why?
San Niang, do you agree with him?
I think
You're really in support of him being head of the Nine Gates
Relying on the power of the military, Zhang Qi Shan dominates the Nine Gates
He has long attracted widespread anger
That's right
Now, we all want to bring down Zhang Qi Shan
It is just that Zhang Qi Shan
Has too much influence
We have to work together
To be able to handle him
San Niang, don't you worry
As long as we can bring down Zhang Qi Shan
The benefits will naturally come your way
Let's not talk about anything else
Just take that piece of land with the mine
I will definitely get that back for you
The time when Zhang Qi Shan falls
Will be when the Huo Family rises
And Chen Pi, Boss Chen
Then, you can have your great revenge too
And make Zhang Qi Shan pay the price he should
Here
Here's to our successful co-operation
Let's bring down Zhang Qi Shan
Lao Ba
Look at that old man
The number of the bed that he is sitting on
Is number 39
This number, is the same number as the one on him
Those are definitely matching
It seems like quite a few people lived here
I think that this man
Being able to bring us here from the mine shaft
And find his own bed
He isn't confused at all
He may just have been excessively traumatised
You hit him like that
Of course he would have been traumatised
Thank goodness Er Ye can sing opera
And got closer
Although I don't know who he is
But he must have some relation to my family
Having been under here for so long
We finally have some good news
Er Ye
I think he is
Friendlier towards you
You should go over there and interact with him more
If he is willing to show us the way
We can definitely save a lot of trouble
Okay
Everyone is tired
Having walked for a few days
We will rest here tonight
Wise, Fo Ye!
Fo Ye, there's an electric generator there
Have a look and see if it works
Fo Ye
This miner
Having lived here for so many years
How did he survive?
It was probably with great difficulty
I can finally eat
What are you doing?
Lieutenant Zhang, take our best provisions out
And give it all to that old man
Okay
No, Fo Ye, I haven't eaten yet!
Leave a bit for me!
I'm hungry
What are you thinking about here?
I am thinking
Whether the other miners were like this old man
And were blinded in both eyes
That's really cruel
Why did these Japanese blind the eyes of these miners7
Was it for another purpose?
I don't know why either
But I only know that it was definitely
Because they did some things that they don't want others to know of
Fo Ye
Do you think
It might have something to do with the hair monsters that keep attacking us?
I keep thinking that's a huge evil
If you are so afraid
some instruments and eight characters then
That's a good idea!
Don't worry
Leave your safety to me!
Have them sort out their luggage and rest for a while
Okay
Everyone, rest!
This is my family's emblem
Which means to say..
That someone from my family
Once infiltrated the miners, and came here to investigate
What exactly is in this mine?
For him to have walked into danger?
Everyone have a look around
Do you hear that?
Fo Ye, what do we do?
Stay calm, follow me
Let's o o
Heaven and mountains escape, the heavens above earth below
This reading is filled with danger, Fo Ye!
I told you!
Don't make noise
I'll go over and have a look first
#unrecognized text#
Everyone don't go out
Staying in here is safe
Things in the mine can't enter here
It'll be alright in a while
That thing doesn't come very often
Staying here, you won't have a problem
Thank you Mister for your help
Don't worry
With so many of our brothers here
Even if we do meet with that thing
We will definitely guarantee your safety
So there's no need to worry
Fo Ye is right
Please don't worry
You, are people from Changsha's Nine Gates?
Yes
Back then, the person who slept on this bed
Did they have relations with you?
They were my ancestors
The symbol they carved on the bed
Is my family's emblem
Then why have you
Only come now?
I am embarrassed to say
Only knew one or two things about my ancestor's dealings
Please do forgive me
Mister
It seems like you really do know Er Ye's ancestors!
Things that happened before
Were extremely horrifying
Since
Your ancestors did not tell you
Maybe they had other plans
Mister
Whilst you two converse
I should not be interrupting
But this implicates the survival of Changsha
So I do have to ask some questions
What is it?
Please ask
Since we have come here
We have to clarify things from the past
Not only does this implicate Er Ye's family
But it implicates the safety of the people of Changsha
And a plot by the Japanese
So please do tell us the details
Fo Ye is right
Before I entered the tomb
I felt my ancestors' will
I hope that you will tell us the truth
That was..
From a long long time ago
I was only 15 years old
My family was very poor
So I came to work in the mines
To earn some food
Hurry up!
What are you doing?
If you delay the deadline
I'll bury you
Are you still not going to move?!
What are you doing? Do you want to revolt?!
How would I dare? Boss!
I just wanted to remind you
We're rushing a deadline
If you beat him to death
You may delay things
It isn't your turn to speak
Are you alright?
I'm alright, quick, go there
What are you looking at?! Get to work!
Boss
Actually you know how much we can do
The higher-ups are rushing us so tightly
Even if you beat us to death
We won't be able to finish this job
Do you know
If we can't meet the deadline
We're all going to die?!
That isn't true
I have a good idea
Use explosives
Use explosives?
That's right
No no
The Japanese won't agree to it
They've said
We are not to destroy anything here
No no
If you don't tell, I don't tell
Everyone here doesn't tell
Who'll find out?
Isn't it just to survive?
This job by the Japanese
We'll definitely not be able to finish it
If you still don't make up your mind
Then there's really just death
Fine fine
You alright? &
I'm alright^
You, in the future, be a little more clever
Don't get beaten again
Ge, I'm not afraid
You'll always come to save me
In a few words, you convinced the supervisor
This is the last time I'll come to save you
In the future
You'll have to rely on yourself
Ge, where are you going?
I have some things to do
What is it?
Can I help you?
There's no need
I've always been very grateful to you
I know I'm very useless
But I really want to help you
Ge, I'm begging you
Fine then
If you really want to help me
When you get out
Go to the Nine Gates of Changsha
And help me report a message
Just say
Just say that I've already left
Left? To where?
Left, I've just left
Once you say that, they'll understand
Have you remembered?
I've remembered
Changsha's Nine Gates
I've remembered
Good
That's right Ge
The opera you taught me to sing that day
What's after that?
You still remember it?
Yes!
Fine, I'll teach you
Supporting the bow with the left
Placing the arrow with the right
Shooting it into the air
Great! Great! Great!
placing the arrow with the right
Shooting it into the air
I didn't think
Back then
He had the determination that he was going to die
He was going to die along with the Japanese
He went to such extremes
Did the Japanese really find something out?
We dug out a path leading to a tomb
We kept digging
We did indeed dig to the tomb
It should be the tomb
It should be the reason behind this tomb, right?
