The Legend of Chinese Zodiac
♫ The springly flowering branches are pretty, soft green covers the mountain wastes. ♫
♫ How long is it since you last smiled? ♫
♫ Whether leaving or staying, destiny will arrive by itself. ♫
♫ And with no effort, the answers will come naturally ♫
♫ Life drifts like the foam on the ocean's waves. ♫
♫ But when the tide goes away, how much of the youth will be left? ♫
♫ Losing and winning fame and fortune like a dearest treasure ♫
♫ Finally you are the one seeking your own worries ♫
♫ Riches cannot exchange my life-long happy lightness ♫
♫ Breaking the northern willow, passing the southern bridge (T/N symbolizing departure and loving care) ♫
♫ Each and every happy highway is there for me to choose ♫
♫ Roaming happily in the human world ♫
♫ Raise a cup and sing of my life-long happy lightness ♫
♫ Joy and sorrow turn within the cup into a happy laugh ♫
♫ Fondness, anger, sorrow and happiness, let them float with the clouds ♫
♫ Float to the end of the earth ♫
♫ Accompany me in my light and free roaming ♫
The Legend of Chinese Zodiac
Episode 4
It's that bastard Mi!
I mean, Uncle Mi, look.
We've waited for you for a long time.
Really, we've prayed for you to return safely.
It seems our prayers were effective,
Great, great!
You really know how to talk.
You broke into my room and smashed my medicine cabinet.
I'm going to kill you !
Do it then, even if you cut my head off, I'll just have a head-sized scar.
I'm not scared of you!
- After I die,- Oh, really?
- I won't plead with you.- What?
But right now, I'm begging you, please cure my brother!
I'll do whatever you say if you do.
Are you telling the truth?
If I lie, let me be struck by lightning!
Okay.
- What? - Eat it.
What will happen if I eat it?
Not much, just that every other day, you'll feel extreme pain three times.
But although the pain would not harm your body,
there is no medicine for it.
It just comes and goes.
Only this can satisfy the hatred that I have for the stinky little kid you are.
How about it? Do you still want to save your friend?
- No! - Don't eat it!
Quickly.
It hurts.
- Don't eat it! - You had better keep your word!
No problem.
Are you okay, leader?
Oh leader, are you ok?
You're really good at acting.
I just fed you a piece of mint.
I just wanted to clear your insides, seeing as you were yelling so much.
Stop pretending.
Really?
Looks like you're really loyal. Get up.
Then, I did what you said, can you cure him now?
You think eating a piece of mint is doing something for me?
That would be convenient wouldn't it? Now is the real task.
What else do I have to do? Tell me.
Recently there's been a man and a woman that came to our village.
They have a jade plate,
and I want you to steal it.
Outsiders, outsiders, where are you?
Where are you? Outsiders, where are you?
Where are you? Where are you, outsiders?
My stomach doesn't hurt anymore, my stomach doesn't hurt anymore!
My stomach doesn't hurt anymore.
It doesn't hurt anymore!
- What are you doing? - I'm letting you go.
Run!
I won, I won!
You were just hit by my "Five-Steps-Heartbreak Needles"
Just as the name implies, if you go another five steps,
you will have the chance to see the king of hell.
So please don't move.
I forgot to tell you, both of your feet can't touch the ground, or you'll die faster!
Please save us.
Uncle Mi! Please save us! Save us?
Outsiders, outsiders!
Outsiders! Outsiders, where are you?
Outsiders, outsiders!
Brother Xiao Hu, after reaching Phoenix City, you don't have to worry about me.
Go look for your crystal.
- Yan'er! - Big Brother Xing Hu.
Please don't leave me!
Brother Xiao Hu, I think this jade plate will lead us in the right direction.
What happened?
Maybe it's because something activated the stored energy?
Brother Xiao Hu, did you see?
Xue Lian, did you accidentally trigger some mechanism?
I did not.
Brother Xiao Hu, I heard my master say that these legendary relics will often respond to their chosen heroes.
But there wasn't anyone nearby just now.
This jade plate is certainly mysterious.
Be careful, Brother Xiao Hu!
Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it..!- Leave it!
- You!- Go away, beggar.
Useless! You can't do anything!
It's you again!
Trying to steal the jade plate repeatedly, what's your motive?
One...
two...
THREE!
Be careful! Don't!
Brother Xiao Hu.
Xue Lian, did you see?
You both saw it?
It must be a mirage produced by the plate.
The twelve Yakshas!
- They went in!- Wow, they went in!
Run!
Brother Xiao Hu.
"Do not pursue a beaten enemy". Let's not chase them.
First, we need to figure out what is going on with the plate.
Let go of me. Let go!
I am so scared.
You again?
Of course it is me, I knew you would fail.
All you do is trick and lie, as slippery as an eel,
but when I tell you to steal something, look at your shameful self!
If it wasn't for me, this Hu guy would probably beat you to death right there!
Beating to death would serve me right. I love being beaten to death. I don't care.
- Fine, it looks like I can't help you anymore either.- You!
Both of us equally already know their personalities
so it won't be hard to steal the jade plate.
Stop bluffing.
They are both simple people, so we can use brain rather than brawn.
Don't kiss me. Don't kiss me!
Who wants to kiss you? Listen to what I say.
This jade plate is very mysterious, why does it not respond anymore?
Brother Hu, did you see that apocalyptic scene?
It's probably due to the plate's power.
It might be a warning.
What warning?
Perhaps warning us that if we don't find the twelve Zodiacs,
this apocalyptic scene might come true.
Brother Hu, we're running low on time.
We need to move quickly.
We have no leads right now. How can we hurry?
Never mind, let's go back first.

Elder, are you alright? Please get up.
I am just old and useless, keeping right and wrong in my memory,
and cultivating happiness and wisdom in my heart.
You two are kind people and will be rewarded.
It is easy to be evil but hard to be good.
My eyes are poor,
Young man, do you have something that's bothering you?
No, it's nothing.
Are you looking for something?
Elder, how did you know?
These past years, there are lots of young thieves.
Just now, I met a young man
- who held a red stone in this hand...- A red ruby?
Correct, it must have been stolen. Such a crime.
That's my ruby! Where did you see it?
Not far, just over there, right around the corner.
Quick, take me there!
Okay, okay.
Xue Lian, take the jade plate and go back.
Elder, Elder, let's go quickly.
- Why the rush, please be gentle. - I'm sorry.
My bones are coming apart. Let's go forward. Slowly!
Which way?
Don't worry, it's right over there.
Elder, could you please walk faster!
Any faster and my old bones will fall apart.
Why don't you carry me.
- Take me on your back.- Okay. Hop on.
Are you ready?
- Which way, old man? Over there?
Who are you?
I am called Yu Ban Xian. (T/N "Fish Demi-God")
What? You said you are a god?
No, no, to be precise,
I am only half a god.
Half? Then where's the other half?
Do you know why I am here?
No, why?
The world happenings are many, and luck undergoes changes.
But as the red dust fades away, they are all tied to fate.
I, Yu Ban Xian, have been looking for you, because you were destined to meet me.
Do you have any questions that need answering?
Miss, you don't need to be suspicious.
I am omnipotent, and can answer your questions in the blink of an eye.
Miss, I've calculated that you are not traveling alone but with a man.
I also know that your name has Xue in it,
and the man's name has Hu in it. Am I correct, Miss?
Can you see this fish?
It is right there, isn't it? It's there.
That's correct. Do you know what fish this is, Miss?
I don't know.
This a dark-skies-spirit fish, created from the spirit of the dark skies.
Only those who are fated can see it,
else you would not be able to see it.
This fish knows the mysteries of the heavens and the earth.
If you have any questions, ask him and you shall be answered.
Master once said that many mythical creatures have unique abilities.
If so, maybe the mysteries of the jade plate and the twelve Yakshas
could really be solved by this fish.
If I could learn the answers and tell Brother Hu, he will definitely be overjoyed.
Girl, I only give this fish to fated people
If you have questions to ask, just place it in the water.
Really, thank you!
Elder, why are you so heavy?
Are we almost there?
Soon, right around the corner.
Another corner?
Why don't you hurry and ask?
But you need to close your eyes and be honest.
This fish has a bad personality.
- Here, let me hold your belongings.- Okay.
Miss, hurry up and ask.
Mythical fish, mythical fish, what I want to know is
do you know how to make the jade plate exhibit its heavenly powers?
Also, where can we find those two destined people.
Also, why do we need to find the twelve Zodiacs?
And also, when I'm next to Brother Hu, why do I always blush and feel my heart race?
Where's the fish?
Did I ask something I shouldn't have?
What happened to the fish and the demi-god?
Oh no, I've been tricked!
Brother Xiao Hu! Brother Xiao Hu!
Elder, didn't you say it was right around the corner?
Okay, okay.
Young man, I have something to tell you.
Quickly tell me.
Actually, what I want to say is...
your ruby is right here!
My ruby!
Hold on! Give it to me!
Stop!
It's right here.
I know you're nearby!
Excuse me, did you see a fish demi-god?
Someone's looking for a fish demi-god?
Fish demi-god? Never heard of one.
He's about this high. Quite short.
You mean Yu'er ("Little Fish")?
He's a very well-known beggar here, more slippery than an eel.
If your belongings are stolen by him, then I suggest you forget about it.
- They are probably lost forever.- This punk actually did it.
Thanks.
What do I do, the twelve Yakshas are in the jade plate.
Without the plate, we can't look for the twelve Zodiacs.
Miss,
I can help you find your lost belongings.
Really?
It's over! It's over! We are definitely dead this time.
We are definitely dead this time.
What happened? What happened?
We're dead.
- Wait, I'm asking you what happened!- It's over! We are definitely dead!
It's over! We're dead!
Stop!
Leader, you're back!
Leader.
Leader, you're finally back.
Let go, tell me what happened.
After you left, that Mi Junfei cured my disease,
and then struck each of us with a needle
smeared with the five steps snake's venom essence.
So that by walking five steps we will die.
Right, we're dead, we're dead.
Be quiet, then why haven't you died yet?
Right, why haven't we died?
We're alive!
You boys are so dumb!
You are all dumb!
You've been tricked by that bastard.
You fools! All of you!
That bastard Mi Junfei.
Picking on you is the same as picking on me.
I will definitely get revenge!
Like this?
Yes, this embroidery needs to be thin.
- Like this, see? - You are so skilled.
- So pretty.- Make sure they are aligned and then sew them together.
It will look really nice this way.
Xing Hu, Xing Hu,
Why can't you even hold on to
Yan Er's last belongings?
How can I face Yan'er?
How can I face Yan'er!
Mi Junfei!
I will never forgive you!
Leader, we've set up the traps.
Good, now we just wait for Mi Junfei.

Although they say I am an orphan found in the river,
I know, Mom, that you must have had your reasons.
You definitely are waiting for me somewhere in this world.
Even if the apocalypse comes, I will find you before then.
Wait for me.
Don't move, come with us!
- Wow, it's beautiful! - I think so too.
I found this a couple of days ago while looking for herbs.
So Miss Xue Lian, you are the first one to see this beautiful view after me, so cherish this moment.
Look, there's a fish!
Wow, it's so pretty.
Why is it shining?
Look there.
It really looks like my master.
Let's be straightforward.
Brother Mi, what are you doing?
Xue Lian, stop avoiding me.
This is our betrothal kiss.
Actually, when I first met you,
I fell in love.
I thought that you were the destined one for me.
If that counts as a kiss, then Brother Hu and I, didn't we...?
Are you ok?
Whoa.
Aren't you taking me to look for the jade plate?
Do you have to look for it?
Then I'll help you find it and treat it as a wedding gift.
So you'll marry me afterwards?
What's marriage?
Marriage, that's when two people...
When they play games together?
Exactly right, it's when they play together every day and night!
- Really? - Really!
Then let's go play right now!
That's fine by me! Great!
Why isn't he back yet, this bastard Mi!
Why isn't this bastard back yet?
He's back, he's back! Get ready, quick!
- To your places, quick!- Get ready.
Why is she here?
The game is inside, let's go.
Normally, games are played around here where there's grass and flowers.
Lord Mi, you're finally back. I've waited a long time.
- Really?- You're finally back.
- You've waited a long time?- Long, long time.
- How long? - Very long.
Where's the jade plate?
Right over there.
One!
Two!
Three!
Run!
Leader!
You boys run! Run!
Bastard Mi, get out of my face.
Run? Let's see where you run now!
Go and run!
Brother Mi,
Brother Mi!
Go and run now!
Xiao Yu'er, this plate is really important to me.
Can you give it back to me?
No.
Xiao Yu'er!
Xiao Yu'er. If you smash this plate,
I'll tie this boy to a piece of floating wood
and soak him in the ocean for three days. I'm not just saying!
What do you think you're doing!
Let them go, or I'll kill her and smash the plate.
Little boys can't kill people.
I don't care, I'm killing her!
Let her go first, and I'll let him go.
You let him go first!
- You first! - You first!
Ok, I'll go first.
Quick, run. Quick, run! Get up!
Quick, run.
- Let her go!- Go, go!
- Why?- If you come over, I'm killing her!
Xiao Yu'er, you liar! You!
You think you can run from me?
In the end, you'll come back and beg me.
Quick, run. Quick, quick!
We should be safe now.
My butt hurts. My butt!
- What's wrong? Fatty, fatty!- It hurts so much!
Ah, my butt hurts!
There's a needle, let me pull it out.
Lie on the ground.
- Little fatty, fatty! are you ok? - Are you ok?
- What's wrong?- Little Fatty!- Fatty!
Hey.
What?
- I'll help you cure him. - You?
- Right.- You know how to?
- You really do? - My master is the King of Medicine.
What's wrong, Little Fatty?
Are you ok?
Little Fatty.
He's awake!
Stand up.
Leader, this sister saved me, why did you still hit her?
Don't worry, I have a plan.
We need to use her to eliminate Mi Junfei. Otherwise, we'll have endless problems in the future.
Let me go! Let me go!
What are you two doing?
Let me go! What are you doing to me?
Let me go! Let me go!
Even though you are the savior,
you have a belligerent energy within you.
- If this energy isn't removed,- it will definitely affect your mission to save the world.
- We will help...-...you remove it.
The ruby! Where's the ruby!
Ruby!
Leader, is this really the right thing to do?
Isn't this being a little heartless?
What's wrong? This is a matter of life and death.
Do you want to taste Mi Junfei's Bone Dissolving Poison?
- Tell me.- Hey!
Back up.
Little kids, why did you tie me up? I need to look for Brother Hu.
Don't say anything. Just listen to me and make the medicines I tell you to.
Medicines? Which ones?
I need you to make poisons.
The kind that can immobilize arms and legs,
Dissolve a hand, siddolve a leg, or dissolve the entire body,
or... one that can make a person go insane is also good.
Or one that turns him into a pig.
Or turns him into a dog.
Or... one that turns him into a green frog is also fine.
Or one that that makes him super-fat.
Or one that...That's all. They are all fine.
Forget it, we saw that bastard Mi is very pitiful
so we'll spare his life. Oh, right!
Can you make a medicine to make him
- stop wanting to be our foe?- Yeah!
I don't think I have one.
- You don't?- I don't.
- You really don't?- I really don't.
I"m warning you, don't play games with me!
There we have the medicinal materials we have found.
- Give me the prescription!- I...
If you'd refuse, I'll smash it!
