Episode 35
The room upstairs is your room to rest in
Go rest first
When Lao Ba is here
We can discuss the negotiations further
That... the room I'm staying in
Is that close to yours?
I have to stay next door to you!
That way, at night, the two of us
It'll be convenient!
What do you mean?
No., look at yourself
The last time you came to Dongbei to look for me
You were in an urgent situation right?
We didn't manage to have a good chat together
This time round, once I received your telegram
I flew here at once
Gave me a shock
Oh right, how is your injury?
I'm much better now, don't worry
That's good!
Tonight
You must have a good round of drinks with me!
Sure!
Fo Ye, Bei Lei Ye
Why are you here?
Madame misses you a lot
She spends all day looking for a suitable beam to hang herself on
That's why I say
I've been here for so long
But I have yet to see Miss Yin's shadow!
Do you know
Given my return to Changsha this time round
I must not let anyone know that I'm staying in this place
Lu Jian Xun has been searching for me all this while
And Xin Yue has been brazenly living in my mansion
This will make him puzzled
But will it be unsafe for Miss Yin to stay in the Zhang Mansion by herself?
No, don't worry about this
She is the darling daughter of Xin Yue Hotel
There will definitely be people protecting her
What's more
For her to be able to live in my mansion
Lu Jian Xun must have tacitly consented to this
He wants to get clues to my whereabouts from Xin Yue
Fo Ye, you can put it this way
But with Miss Yin's temper of hers
If she doesn't get to see you
Then you'll....
Tell her that
I'll look for her once I've settled the things I have on hand
Fo Ye
What is this?
That Lu guy placed many spies in the mansion
There are even people standing guard at all corners of the house
These few days
Madame has dug out the names of these spies
And have written them down in the letter
Madame also asked me to tell you that
The guards will change shifts every day at dusk
You can come at this time
As expected of Miss Yin
She moves fiercely and accurately!
Help me to hand this to her
Fo Ye, this is....
Fo Ye, you may not say it outloud
But your heart is thinking of her right?
You even bring this letter everywhere with you!
Honestly speaking
Have you just been waiting for her to look for you all this while?
Tell her that
The names of the people that are mentioned in the letter
Must be sent to the headquarters within 3 days
Yes, Sir
Fo Ye, Ba Ye is here
The furnishings of this place
Are all made of the finest quality rosewood
The Nine Gates do live up to their reputation indeed!
Well, Bei Lei Ye is the one with good taste!
These wood
I personally hand-picked them all!
I see
The fengshui of this place has a positive charge to it!
I'm pretty sure that this is the work of Ba Ye right?
Bei Lei Ye
Don't stand! Have a seat!
Please
Bei Lei Ye, this time round
I only have one request for you
Fo Ye, I came here to help you
If you have any requests, don't hesitate to tell me!
Since Bei Lei Ye is so accommodating
I won't beat around the bush then
I want you to help me with something
Do a negotiation with the military
Negotiation... negotiation?!
With the one named Lu?
That's right
Lately, have you heard that there is a treasure hidden in a mine in Changsha?
I've heard something about it
That place
Fo Ye and Er Ye went to it once
But they returned with injuries
How is that possible?
Just what is in there that is so dangerous?
There is actually
No treasure underground
Just some objects that shouldn't see the light of day
The Japanese have been eyeing
These objects menacingly
As well as
Lu Jian Xun
Some of the Nine Gates too
Which is why we need to obtain these objects faster than them
All of you care deeply for your country indeed
I admire you guys deeply
Bei Lei Ye
The only thing is that it isn't convenient for Fo Ye and Er Ye
To show their faces now
And Lu Jian Xun's men
Are in a hurry to enter the tombs
We urgently need a person with
Status to negotiate with them
As long as you are able to reach a consensus with them
We will be able to work together to enter the tombs together
And we will be able to get the things that we want before them
With that being said
I must live up to the trust you have given me then
Bei Lei Ye, just with this aura and grandeur of yours
You will definitely be able to squash them down!
As long as we do not lose to them in terms of power
They will definitely not look down on us
But don't worry
I've already calculated
The negotiation this time round, won't be a problem at all!
Good! This is my forte!
Hurry up and tell me, just how should I act?
Bei Lei Ye, you are part of the royal household
The rules and regulations of the royal household
What would that bunch of bumpkins know about it?
Isn't that right?
Just behave the way you do in Dongbei!
You don't need to care about everything else
Fo Ye and I have already made all the arrangements
Alright! I'll do it this way then!
Oh right, I've been here for so long
But why have I not seen Er Ye yet?
Will he go with us to the negotiation this time?
Er Ye is under the weather and is recuperating now
As for me, it isn't convenient for me to go out too
Which is why I asked Lao Ba to accompany you
You can go to Xin Yue and get her to help you
We will set off in a few days
Bei Lei Ye
There is no need to worry at all
Come come come, have some tea
This is just a small matter to you!
That's true
Here here here
Sirs
When do I serve the main dishes?
Why are you in a rush?
We will naturally call you when the time comes
Yes yes yes
I'll just wait by the door then
You can just order me if you have any requests
This is outrageous!
They were clearly the ones who sent us the invitation
But they actually dare to be late!
Chief Lu
How did the invitation reach your hands?
I did not see the person who delivered the invitation
My Lieutenant passed it to me
From what I heard from him
It seems to be a servant who delivered the invitation
What was written on it?
Only the time and location was written
With regards to others....
Just speak your mind
There was a slip of paper in it
Written on it was
I can help you achieve great things"
What a scammer
That is weird
This invitation didn't reach the Huo Family
Neither was it sent to Chen Pi
How was it so accurately sent to Chief Lu?
What Madame Huo means is that...
This person is very well-versed in the forces of Changsha
This has definitely got something to do with us
Going down to the tombs tomorrow
The mines are originally the Huo Family's territory
I'm afraid it won't be that easy
For anyone else to stick their foot in
There is a new force in the city
We have to be on our guard
I do want to see
Who dares to come to Changsha and put up such great airs!
Is there a need to fly into a fury?
They came late on purpose
They simply want to send us into confusion
And reduce our deal in advance
If we can't take this bit of anger at all
Then we might as well not eat this meal then
Bei Lei Ye, with this display of grandeur
It's really such an honour to follow you
Bei Lei Ye! Bei Lei Ye! Bei Lei Ye!
He is here
Such a huge affair I see
He is not even here yet
But the sound of the Suo Na is already ringing in the air
This is just a bluff
Sir, this way
We will reach soon
Here, please
Over here
Officer! Your guest is here!
Please
How do I address
Your excellency?
I'm from the Bei Lei family of the Qing Dynasty
My name
Is not for people like you to hear
You are the local official?
What grade are you?
I'm not an official
Changsha's Defence Chief
Was dismissed by the higher-ups a few days ago
I am now the replacement for this position
So it's like that... fine
As long as you are the most powerful officer in Changsha will do
Bei Lei Ye display of grandeur is really huge!
You have yet to come upstairs
But we can clearly hear the sound of the Suo Na from upstairs
And who are you?
Chen Pi from the Nine Gates
Bei Lei Ye
This is China
To put it simply
How is a person like you
Suited to have a meal with me?
Isn't this Qi Ba Ye?
Since when have you climbed up to Bei Lei Ye's high rank?
This is really unexpected
What is the most unexpected
Would be your doings
Are we going to eat or not?
Would we become full from standing?
Madame Huo is right
It's getting late, have a seat
Hold it there!
Where is my special seat?
Don't stand, have a seat, have a seat
Please
Ladies and gentlemen
I was late today
I'll drink as a self-punishment
Is this wine even fit for drinking??
Men!
Bring my good wine!
This is great
Have taste! Have taste!
Just take it as an apology for my tardiness
Not bad! It is good wine indeed!
Xiao Er, serve the main dishes!
Alright!
Enjoy your meal
Chief Lu, right?
That's right
What is Xu Chang Xing's most famous dish?
In fact
It is the roasted duck that in front of you
Roasted duck will only taste good when it is eaten while it is hot
Bei Lei Ye, Chief, let's start eating
I'm talking to Chief Lu
Are you in any position to interrupt us?
Bei Lei Ye, honestly speaking
I really like the roasted duck from here
Crispy skin that is not too greasy
Have a taste
If you do not start eating
Do you think any of us dare to?
Afterall, we waited for you with hungry stomachs
Since Chief Lu says so
Then I must really give it a try
This is so awful!
If this had happened in the past
The Chef who cooked this
Would have already been dragged away and have his head chopped off
Ladies and gentlemen, these
I asked my personal chef to make these dishes
Specially for everyone
This dish is called the Eye of the Horse
It will help to improve your vision
And this one
Monkey Brain with Bamboo Shoots and Tofu
The taste is very fresh!
I eat this often while in Dongbei
Look at this dish
Two days ago
I hunted a leopard
I'm sick of eating deer meat
So I need to have a change in tastes!
Don't just stare! Eat!
Come, eat
You have become very vigilant indeed
But your skills are lousy
You finally came to see me!
I'm cooped up all alone in here
I'm going to be bored to death!
How did you enter?
Did anyone see you?
Your door is open
So I entered directly
What are you fiddling with?
You don't even know that someone is here
Nothin much
Just some things that women use
Have you read the letter that Xiao Kui delivered to you?
Do you want me to help you
No no no, let's not alert the enemy
Let them be
Alright
Are you packing your luggage?
You want to go back to Bei Ping?
Of course not!
I want to go to the headquarters
Don't be silly!
I- I'm going to the headquarters
Not.. not because of you
I'm going there to help., help..
Help., help Ya Tou look after Er Ye
Er Ye has Mo Ce looking after him now
Do you think he still needs you?
I'm cooped up at home all day
Mushrooms are going to sprout out of my head soon!
And there is still a Lu Jian Xun to keep an eye on too
So annoying
Just let me go to the headquarters
So that I can help you
The problem is that even now
You haven't figured out what Lu Jian Xun is thinking right?
On the surface he is watching you
But in reality
You're watching him right?
I watch
Aren't you worried about me?
I am
But I'm even more worried about the safety of the beams in my house
Your house doesn't have beams, you know?
Then I'll build one for you
What are you doing?
Bear with it for a while
Time will pass very quickly
I'm just worried that if I stay home alone for any longer
You'll be snatched away by Bei Lei Ye
I heard that., he looks for you to have a drink every day
Who did you hear that from?
I'm just panicking because I can't see you
Don't panic, don't panic, it's alright it's alright
I don't know if Ba Ye and Bei Lei Ye have sorted them out
If the negotiations succeed
Then I, won't get to see you again!
You have to go into the tomb again
I'll worry too much
You've even lent them the listening servants
Yet you still worry that they won't succeed?
Then can I go to headquarters with you?
If I go to the headquarters
I won't panic anymore
Alright, alright
I'll just bring you there, alright?!
Little troublemaker
Come come come come, let's keep drinking, keep drinking!
Here here here. Chief Lu!
The more I talk to you, the more into it I get!
Here, cheers!
Say, Chief Lu
The situation now
Is extremely favourable for us!
I CO
Do we need to be more united?
If between us, we pull guns and swords
Won't it be chaos on top of chaos?
Bei Lei Ye is right!
No matter what
We are one team, we'll talk it out!
Chief Lu is refreshing
Then, I'll come out and say it
Chief Lu
You know why I have come to look for you too
I heard that
Nearby, there's an ancient tomb that's worth a dozen cities
If someone goes into this tomb
The treasures inside it
Will belong to us too, right?
Bei Lei Ye, is hoping to
Split a bowl of soup with me?
We are two powers uniting!
Two powers uniting, what do you mean by that?
Chief Lu, I know
You have the support of the Nine Gates
But both this Chen Pi
And Madame Huo
Who is able to go into this tomb?
If they can't go into the tomb
Then doesn't Chief Lu have nothing?
I really admire you
Without having gained anything for so long
Yet you can be so patient
A tomb that even the Nine Gates can't enter
What method does you, Bei Lei Ye have?
Although I know little about tombs
But
The talents under me are numerous
They definitely won't have a problem in getting inside the tomb
You must know, I, have more than enough money
Of course of course
As long as you are willing to fork out the money
Naturally, talented people will put their lives on the line for you
Bei Lei Ye
It really isn't that I, Lu Jian Xun is unwilling to work with you
But it's just that this, involves too many national secrets
It's not something that just anyone can get involved with
Chief Lu
I don't lack money
But who looks down on shining silver?
If we can get out the treasures within it
Chief Lu, can have your pick as to what you want from it
I came from faraway Dongbei
Mostly to see the world
If along the way I can pick up some profits
That'll be even better
What's more
Now, the situation is unstable
It changes every day
Money
Is most reassuring when it is held in hand
The proverb is right
You can never be too careful
If there is a change
The treasures in the tomb..
It won't even be our turn to get it
This is...
A small greeting gift
Chief Lu, please accept it
Anyone can sweet talk
What skills do you have?
Show us a thing or two
That's right
Bei Lei Ye, you don't understand the situation in the ancient tomb
The underground world is extremely dangerous
If you enter with your life, you might leave without it
Masters
I've brought the goose feathers that you wanted!
Bei Lei Ye, the goose feathers you wanted are here
I just wanted to have a look
What you can possibly do with these bird feathers
Fourty-three pieces
Ba Ye
How has Er Ye's health been recently?
A warrant is now out for Er Ye
I don't know where he is
Whatever you say
I just want to remind you of one thing
When entering the tombs tomorrow
Help Er Ye out more
Now, the Huo family's people have been reduced greatly in number
Someone keeps eyeing this position
I'm afraid that this trip into the tombs
Changsha will be overturned
There are many capable people in the Huo family
Naturally someone will enter the tombs to snatch the treasure
There's no need for me to make a move
Bei Lei Ye
I'm so sorry!
I'm really sorry!
A piddling little trick
I won't fall for it!
Interesting
Really interesting
I didn't expect such a servant girl
To have such great skill
It seems like Bei Lei Ye is surrounded by talent
Chief Lu knows the value of what he sees
Bei Lei Ye, I'm definitely considering you a friend now
Tomorrow I'm making a trip to the mines
I wonder if you are willing to join me?
Of course that's no problem
Bei Lei Ye's identity is prominent
Do you mean to say you want to enter the mines with us?
Of course not
You mean. Chief Lu is going to enter the mines personally too?
I have a military duty
It isn't convenient
Then tomorrow, our men will enter the tombs together
You and I, will await above ground
To strike it rich
It's set then
Chief Lu, be careful there's a trick
Chief Lu, let me advise you one thing
Control your dog
You!
Er Ye, it's time to take your medicine
Doctor Mo
It's been hard on you all this while
Er Ye
Are you really going to enter the tomb?
I'm worried for your health
After having rested for so long
What's more, the mines are dangerous
How could I let Fo Ye go alone?
That's right
When will Doctor Mo return to Bei Ping?
I may go to Changsha Hospital
Because I received a notice from Changsha Hospital
They say they lack doctors there now�++
The higher-ups have instructed me to go there
So I agreed
What's more, cousin is here*
We can take care of each other
Er Ye
You must be careful when you go into the tomb
Cousin and I
Both await your return*
Sure
It's not early
Go back and rest first
How is it?
We're ready
Let's go
Tell your people to get ready
Chief Lu
Don't worry, I understand
It's ready
When you enter the cave later
Follow Chen Pi
Yes
San Niang
This time, when we enter the mines, we'll rely on you entirely
Don't worry
Who is Huo San Niang?
What's more, this is my territory
Bei Lei Ye
Chief Lu has come quite early
Bei Lei Ye has come at the right time too
Chief Lu has brought quite a number of people
Bei Lei Ye has brought quite a number of people too
Chief Lu is too humble
The number of people I've brought, is outnumbered by yours
But my people, are all the top
Is that so?
Zhang Qi Shan and Er Yue Hong are in the team
Everyone get ready
Get ready to enter the cave and start work
Prioritise the bigger picture
Don't act rashly
We'll rely entirely on those two to get into the tomb
When we get the treasures
It won't be too late to kill them then
If what's in the mines
Can resurrect your Mistress from the dead
Would you be able to be so patient?
I'll let you go for now
What are you saying?
Nothing
I'm just giving him a few instructions
Are we still going in?
Of course
Please
Next we are about to enter the pathway into the tomb
It will take a lot of time
Everyone, rest on the spot for a while
Yes
Boss
Shall we take this chance to get rid of them?
Not yet
This is a great chance
We're going to enter the maze soon
I want to use this chance to shake them off
It's just that we can't act in the honeycomb
It is very easy to get lost in there
Instruct your men
They must pay attention and follow me closely
Yes
Let's spare their lives for now
When we get the items
It won't be too late to act then
Monitor the situation for changes
Fo Ye
They haven't caught up yet
Which way do we go?
Let's lose them first
This way
Where are they?
It seems to be that way
Let's go
I didn't think that
We could lose Chen Pi and the others so easily
If they can't find the right path
Will they be trapped in here forever and die?
They won't die
But they'll be exhausted
It seems like we've gotten the advantage
Why do we seem to have come back?
Why are we in the same place
Walking back and forth like this?
Boss
If we still can't get out
Will we die in here?
Shut up!
Although Er Ye and the others have come here before
But the intersections here are so complex
They can't have memorised every path
Since they can lose us so quickly
It means there must be a pattern
They've mastered this pattern, thus they can get out
Pattern?
Open the door

Qing Wuzi'*
Qing Wuzi?
Ba Ye
Lao Ba what are you doing?
What sort of person exactly
Can make Ba Ye bow nine times?
Bury without killing the grass, and that's thought to be robbing the grave
Bury in your ancestors' grave, and meet with tragedy
One grave prospers, but ten graves are poor
What is he reciting?
He is reciting the 'Qing Wu Jing'*
Qing Wu Jing?
Qing Wu Jing's author, is Qing Wuzi
When inside and outside complement, the fengshui will naturally align
Observe carefully, to understand the temperament
Understand this, and rule the world
