Deification
What the fucking deification!
I told you not to water it.
See? It’s dying!
Aren’t you an immortal?
Bring it back to life!
Deification.
What’s wrong? What’s wrong?
What’s wrong?
Husband, what’s wrong?
Someone is haunting in the palace.
Within three days,
there will be great trouble in Zhaoge.
Are you mad again? Get back.
You old madman!
You’re talking nonsense again.
No, I’m not.
Go! Go sell the flour.
Look what situation it is!
Why are you still caring for selling flour?
We must eat and live
whatever situation it is.
I don’t believe it.
When we sell the flour obediently,
who will kill us?
I can’t sell the flour
for the moment.
Dear wife.
I’m Jiang Taigong, Marquis Qi.
Please set out for Xiqi with me
for the great cause.
You madman! What nonsense are you talking about?
What Marquis Qi? What great cause?
You’re in your seventies.
What great cause can you have?
Forget it.
We can’t stay in Zhaoge now.
Get packed
and leave with me.
If we get delayed,
it will bring up unnecessary troubles.
Why can’t we stay in Zhaoge?
Why?
Just because you want it?
I’ve lived in Zhaoge for half a lifetime.
Why can you take me away?
I’m telling you.
Leave if you want.
But I won’t.
Trust me for this time!
I’m right!
Why should I trust you?
Have you ever been right?
Even once?
You can’t even sell the flour well.
Without me,
you would have been dead of starvation.
What can you do
as an immortal?
Expect selling the flour,
What else can you do?
I can divine.
Divine?
Fine. You can make money by divination, too.
Now,
I’ll go with you
and do the divination.
If you divine correctly,
I’ll trust you.
And I’ll go to Xiqi with you.
Did West Marquis really say so?
Exactly.
I think
Ji Chang is truly helping you.
He’s not helping me,
but the crown prince.
I can't deny that
he helped me to transfer the hostility
for the time being.
But the crown prince
will never stop hating me.
I’m always his enemy.
He wanted the crown prince to understand
how to save the country.
It can’t be saved.
If it could,
Ji Chang wouldn’t have told Yin Jiao.
You still don’t understand people’s hearts.
Most people have evil intentions.
No exactly.
West Marquis is different.
He really is a sage.
Have you ever thought of it?
He hates the despotic rules
conducted by the King of Shang.
He could have rebelled
to take the place of the King.
But why did he
risk his life to come back to Zhaoge?
You know why?
For the benevolence and loyalty.
He has been a loyal minister to Shang
all his life.
He can’t forget the old affection.
So he wanted to enlighten the crown prince
to get rid of despotic rules and regain people’s support.
He still has sympathy.
He doesn’t want to sacrifice countless people
because of the war.
Therefore,
he gave up the chance to be the king
and has always been a minister.
He really is a saint.
A pedantic one.
Try to get me to
meet him again.
What else would you like to ask him?
Shen Gongbao said
building the Star-picking Pavilion
could gather all the spirit of the world
and prolong
the country’s last gasp.
I want to ask West Marquis
if it is true.
Shen Gongbao
must be lying to the king.
In the Jade Void Palace,
everyone lies,
except the Primeval Lord of Heaven
He must be lying.
Shen Gongbao can’t be completely trusted.
But we can’t completely deny him, either.
If the Star-picking Pavilion
can’t help the king,
why did he instigate the king
to build it?
Unless.
Unless he can…
gain profit from it.
I must
figure this out.
Otherwise,
I feel uneasy.
Fine then.
Anyway, I don’t understand
such mysterious things.
Whatever you want to do,
I’ll just listen to you.
Divination.
Divination for the past and future.
Divination!
Can’t you be louder?
Who can hear you?
Louder!
Yell!
Divination!
Divination for fortune and career.
Come on. Divine for me.
I’m warning you.
Divine for him carefully!
If you fail, I’ll beat you.
No. I don’t want it.
If you fail, you’ll get killed.
No. No. No.
I can succeed! I can!
Divination! Divination!
Divination!
Divination for fortune.
Divination!
I don’t dare to divine it.
In this way,
I won’t mange to divine until it’s getting dark.
Then go sell the flour.
Stop thinking about
great cause or Xiqi?
Go sell the flour! Right away!
Right away!
You.
Old man, what are you doing?
I’ll divine for you.
You don’t need to pay if I’m wrong.
No, old man.
Look!
My fish is almost drying.
I don’t have time
for a chat.
Come on. Get one divination.
I’ll give you ten coins if I am wrong!
And it depends on you.
Ten coins?
Fifteen!
Fifteen coins?
Old man, my fish
is at least
worth fifty coins.
Fine, fifty!
Are you a fool?
You give money to him?
Are you an idiot?
No, I don’t want the divination,
in case others think I’m bullying an idiot.
Fine.
I’ll keep away of trouble. I gotta go.
You must take the divination.
If you don’t,
I’ll die.
How about eighty coins?
Are you seeking your doom?
No.
A hundred!
Sell me!
A hundred and fifty!
Why don’t you sell me instead?
Damn you!
A hundred and fifty.
A hundred and fifty?
I’ll be an idiot
if I don’t take it.
Okay!
What the fuck!
Listen.
Cross the bridge and walk twenty steps westwards,
and you’ll meet a buyer.
The buyer will definitely buy your fish.
I see.
I’ll come back to you if you’re wrong.
Wait. I’m not finished yet.
The buyer
will buy your fish
with 250 coins.
Remember that.
250 coins?
Do you think everyone is as foolish
as you are.
Luckily, I didn’t listen to you.
Fine. Stop lying to me.
What bad luck I have!
Remember! Walk twenty steps westwards after you cross the bridge.
If I’m wrong,
I’ll give you 250 coins.
Don’t you dare!
Xiao’e.
Where have you been?
Xiao’e.
Madam, excuse me.
Have you seen a girl?
What does she look like? Is she pretty?
Not really.
She’s black and fat.
She walks like a spring.
Her eyes
are a little open.
So weird? No, I haven’t seen her.
That’s what I look like
in his eyes?
What are you laughing at?
How dare you laugh at me?
What?
Really open?
It’s an appearance of good fortune, understand?
Understand?
Annoying!
Xiao’e.
What’s wrong with you?
Why didn’t you answer
when I called you?
Nothing. I didn’t hear you.
What’s wrong with you?
You have tricks, don’t you?
I just want you to experience the feelings
when you’re ignored.
How did you treat me on the way?
Don’t think I won’t fall out with you.
Oh, how quickly you fell out with me?
So what?
Do you think
you’re more brilliant
with a character on your wrist?
You’re a woman intoxicated by success.
I’m a mean person!
Didn’t you know that?
I’m not only mean,
but also not pretty.
I’m black and fat,
walk like a spring
and my eyes…
Weren’t I telling the truth?
Oh.
Why did you eavesdrop on me?
Why are you so sinister?
So what?
I’m sinister.
I can be more sinister.
Are you scared?
Fine.
I’m scared.
All right?
Do you know
why I was avoiding you?
I just want to see
how competent you can be
and see if you can find me.
When you can’t even find me,
how can you find General of Fire?
Can it be the same?
Why can’t it be?
If you really are competent,
go find
General of Fire!
Arrogant boy!
You’re not good-looking, either.
Not handsome at all.
What are you doing?
Are you a lecher?
- People are watching! - Don’t move.
Let me see
if I can find more clues.
Are you nuts?
I’m warning you!
You mustn’t get fresh with me
ever again.
But if you don’t show me,
how can I find General of Fire?
Fine. Fine.
Look!
Look! Enough?
You get nothing more, don’t you?
We don’t even know
who he is.
Where should we go for him?
How can we find him?
That’s why I must look at it carefully.
Come on.
Think carefully about it.
The character is on me.
If there are more clues,
how could I not know?
Anyway.
You’re opinionated!
You don’t trust anyone else.
What do you mean?
Are you
making trouble out of nothing?
You’re making trouble out of nothing!
Didn’t you get it?
The character is on me.
But I’m not your magic weapon
or tool.
I’m a human being
and I have my pride, okay?
I don’t like following you
like a dog.
Nor do I want
to be bossed around
like an article.
I see.
Dear Sis. Xiao’e,
sorry I was rude
and gave offence.
I…
No, I…
It’s too late for me to regret.
I’m begging you, Sis. Xiao’e.
Hope you’ll let bygones be bygones.
I will definitely correct my error
and make a fresh start.
Can’t I still satisfy you?
Only sister?
Miss Xiao’e?
Great Xiao’e?
Heroine Xiao’e?
Queen Xiao’e?
Goddess Xiao’e?
I’m a beauty.
Beauty Xiao’e!
All right?
Almost.
Fine.
Considering
you’re sincere to apologize,
I’ll help you.
I’ll use my unique skill
to help you find General of Fire.
How arrogant!
Wait for me!
What a unique skill do you have?
Sir, finally I find you.
You really a living immortal.
Came true?
Yes.
Really?
All was true!
Everything you said
came true.
I have never had
such good luck before!
Look! Look!
After I crossed the bridge,
I walked twenty steps westwards
and met an honorable guest.
His eyes gleamed
when he saw my fish.
While I was still thinking,
he said he would buy them all.
I was kind of
suspecting
what you told me.
So I was cautious.
I said I wouldn’t sell my fish.
Guess what?
He gave me a wallet
without arguing
and took my fish away
anxiously.
I thought I should count the coins.
Guess what?
How many? Tell us.
250 coins in total.
250!
Dude.
Can I have a look
at the wallet?
Here you are.
It’s him?
Who?
I can predict this.
But I can’t predict the person involved.
Could it be him?
Sir.
How much do you charge for one divination?
Fifty.
Fifty?
Well.
I’ll take fifty coins
as the cost of my fish.
You shall take all the rest.
No, it is not good.
How can I take the money?
That’s too much for my divination.
It's OK. You deserve it.
I’m willing to give the money to you.
Thank you for the instruction.
From now on,
I should depend on you
for my future fortune.
No. No.
Fine. No need to say any more
You deserve the money.
I’m not worth that.
What? Why not?
You were right once.
And now you’re going wrong again?
Oh, I was right.
Finally, I was right, huh?
Dear, you promised me.
As long as I could be right, you would trust me.
When you trust me,
you’ll go to Xiqi with me.
Why? Why are we going to Xiqi?
You can make so much money by divination,
why are we going to Xiqi?
Divination. Divination.
Divination. Hurry. Divination.
- Divination. Go! - Dear.
- Dear. - Go. Go.
Wife, help me.
Help me!
Finally, we have the luck.
I get luck! Good luck!
Sisters and brothers.
Dear friends.
My brother and I
come to your town,
not for performance,
but to find someone.
Miss, who are you looking for?
General of Fire.
Does anyone know him?
Is this the unique skill
you just mentioned?
As we know,
General of Fire is famous
for his unique skills.
We come here with the admiration for his reputation
and try to have a look.
Hope you can help us
to achieve our dream.
What’s wrong?
I think you’re the decoys
for General of Fire.
Yeah. Yeah.
You’re taking so much pain
to make up the story.
You know General of Fire?
Kids, stop pretending.
It’s a small place.
Who doesn’t know him?
Yeah. Yeah.
Sister.
My dear sister.
You said
you knew his mansion.
How can we go there?
Mansion?
You really want to find him?
Come with me. Let me tell you.
Come on. Let’s go.
Can it be that easy?
Hurry up!
It’s just a small restaurant!
Is this the mansion of General of Fire?
There must be some misunderstanding.
Let’s go back.
Don’t.
We already arrived.
Get in and have a look.
We may get something unexpected?
What?
I’ve been running around
with you the whole day.
In the end,
we found such an unreliable place.
Why don’t you think about it?
Can General of Fire be ordinary?
Even if he isn’t an immortal,
he must be a great man.
Tell me.
What’s the feature of great men?
What?
Low-keyed!
Think of our master Jiang Ziya.
How low-keyed he is!
And look at this one!
Will a great man
be so high-profile?
If he’s so easily to be found,
why are we here?
It will never be us to find him.
He would have been invited by someone else.
Brother, you made great sense.
It’s so wise of you!
How can you be
so smart?
I made sense, huh?
Then don’t waste our time.
No.
I still want to get in and have a look.
Why?
Because…
Because I’m hungry.
Let’s go.
Who is General of Fire?
Who dares to pretend to be General of Fire?
Shut up.
Could you stop making trouble?
Let go of me.
What are you scared of?
He’s not real.
I’ll see
who dares to pretend to be General of Fire.
General of Fire, someone wants to see you.
I heard them.
Ask them to wait.
I’ll come out after cooking the chives.
Greetings, Granduncle.
Kneel.
Do you know why I ask you to kneel?
Please kindly enlighten me.
Enlighten?
It’s easy for you to say.
I asked you to kneel
to teach you a lesson
for your dead mother.
You’re disloyal and disobedient.
Your mother died in vain.
Don’t get angry, Granduncle.
Tell me.
Today, Shen Gongbao
advised your father
to build the Star-picking Pavilion.
Instead of stopping him,
you supported him.
Granduncle.
I think
Shen Gongbao made some sense.
It will cost a large sum of money to build it,
which will harass the people and waste money.
But if it really helps to
consolidate our country,
we can get great benefits
after suffering for a few years.
We can get more than what we will lose.
I think
you know how to weight it
more than I do.
You bastard.
How silly you are!
Shen Gongbao was evasive.
None of his words could be verified.
He was obviously lying!
And your father.
Bewitched by Daji, he lost himself
and couldn’t tell right from wrong.
You are
so stupid too.
Why don’t you think about it?
When the Star-picking Pavilion is built,
what can be left in our country?
When you take the throne,
our country will have nothing left,
except a shell.
Not to mention
the fucking prosperous country
or great benefits.
Think carefully about it.
All dukes are
casting a greedy eye on the throne.
I’m afraid when you take the throne in the morning,
you’ll be killed in the evening.
You’re then the last king of our country.
Why you?
I recognize you.
You’re the one….
who got us a room in the hostel.
Yes, it was me.
Our town is small
with limited guests.
So I ran a branch store
for beverages.
And I met you again.
What a coincidence!
What would you like to eat?
It’s okay to run a restaurant.
But why
are you deliberately mystifying?
Why are you pretending to be General of Fire?
Hey, Miss.
What are you talking about?
What do you mean pretending?
I am General of Fire!
The real one!
Didn’t you see the signboard
when you came in?
I may not be famous in a large area.
But I’m famous
around the town at least
What?
- Around the town… - Enough.
Stop arguing!
It was our fault.
Let’s go.
Stop making a fool of yourself.
Wait.
Are you really General of Fire?
Absolutely real!
Is there another General of Fire around here,
except you?
I’m the only one in town.
Wait a minute.
Come over.
Did you hear him?
He said he was the only one
in the neighborhood.
And the character on my wrist
is burning hard.
Look!
What does it mean?
It means
General of Fire is close to us.
He might be the one.
And Master often said
a man of substance did not like to flaunt his true worth.
Let’s go.
What would you like to order?
I want… I want…
Okay.
Why can you say you’re General of Fire?
For my real skill, of course.
Don’t underestimate my restaurant.
It looks inconspicuous.
But it has many great features.
Well, can you show us
what you really get?
You mean my unique skill?
No problem.
But I’m afraid you can’t handle it.
Don’t worry.
Bring it on.
Okay. Cool.
Just wait and see.
This is the hot pot.
This is the ham.
This is the donkey burger.
This is the stir-fried pig kidney.
This is the roast fish.
And the last dish.
Do you know what it is?
A roast chicken, isn’t it?
Wrong!
This is not an ordinary chicken.
This is my master card
in my restaurant.
Roast turkey!
Roast turkey?
I haven’t tried this before.
No wonder it smells so good!
Are you sure
you’re not kidding us?
When did we
order such dishes?
You ordered them.
What? Wanna deny?
I asked you to prove
your real skill.
When did I ask you
to serve us with these dishes?
Yeah.
I made
all these dishes.
This is my real cooking skill.
Look!
All dishes are related to fire.
And they’re special dishes.
Can’t they prove
I’m General of Fire?
What the fuck!
Hey you…
Brother, don’t act on impulse.
I think
he made some sense.
He’s a cook anyway.
You are really pissing me off!
All right. Enjoy your meal.
If you want more dishes,
I’m always at your service.
Okay.
Fine. Come on.
Enjoy the meal. Hurry. Sit down.
He really is a profiteer!
How evil he is!
Whatever happens, we must eat.
We should
at least get adequately fed.
What else do you know, expect eating?
Brother.
Look!
The dishes are on the table.
We can’t waste them.
Besides,
didn’t Master say
it was a shame to waste food.
Eat if you want.
But I’m not in a mood for that.
I’m filled with anger.
How can I eat more?
I… I’ll enjoy them then.
Good.
Delicious!
This one tastes good, too.
I didn’t expect him
to be a really good cook.
No wonder he dares to call himself General of Fire.
How inattentive you are!
Don’t forget.
We come to complete our mission.
Okay.
I know.
Try some.
How do you feel?
Are the dishes satisfactory?
Yes.
If they weren’t,
I wouldn’t have stuffed.
I see.
I’m glad you enjoy the meal.
Then please pay the bill.
Don’t rush.
Let me check.
Don’t get it wrong.
1,801 coins in total.
What?
How many coins?
Once again.
1,801.
Why is it so expensive?
are you running an illegal restaurant?
Manager.
Did we eat the dragon’s paw
or the phoenix's heart?
I can even buy your restaurant
with so many coins!
Fine.
I’ll give you a discount.
Cut off the change.
And you can pay 1,800 coins.
Brother, you’re absolutely right.
He is really
a profiteer.
He has all evil intentions.
It’s not scary how he is greedy.
But it is what he can act.
What should we do now?
Should we beat him, beat him
or beat him?
Why do you bother to ask?
Beat him!
Brother.
I’m afraid you may kill him
by punching too hard.
May I do it for you?
Fine. Do it. Wait a minute.
You evil manager!
You cheat guests like this!
Does your mother know that?
Do you believe I’ll stab you?
Miss, don’t get mad.
We can negotiate.
We have a great bargain sale,
providing a one stop service
including accommodation and meals.
When you get accommodation,
you’ll get 30% off the food bill.
Why don’t you stay for another night?
You have a good plan!
Stay for another night?
Are you trying to spend all my money?
Dude, don’t get excited.
You look glowing.
You must have had a tight sleep
last night.
I’m not boosting.
Our rooms
are extremely good.
Last night,
you were in the room named Super Sexy.
Today, we have a vacant room
named Affectionate Couple.
Affectionate couple?
That room
is a very special feature of our shop.
It lies westward with a skylight.
In the room, you’ll easily see Zhaoge
and count the stars when you look up.
Your deceitful trick is your real feature.
Don’t think
we’ll be taken in again!
How much is Room Affectionate Couple
for one night?
Xiao’e.
Fifty?
We want one.
Five thousand!
I’ll stab you.
What are you looking at?
So what?
Fine. As you wish.
You want to look at you?
I won’t!
Why will I look at you?
Look at your face!
So sallow!
I’d rather look at a cucumber.
What are you talking about?
The cucumber is green, okay?
How can a cucumber be green?
It’s sallow!
Or it will be called green cucumber!
Are you color-blind?
You can’t even tell
if a cucumber is green or sallow!
How you’re wasting your eyes!
You’re color-blind!
as well as your families!
Ugly guy!
How dare you curse my families?
I’ll beat you
until you beg me for mercy!
Oh, my God! Stop!
What were they
talking about?
Why didn’t I understand?
neither do I.
Then why are they fighting?
Why?
To make trouble, of course.
Haven’t you seen ruffians?
They two are typical ruffians.
They don’t need a reason for a fight.
They feel itchy when they don’t fight.
Brother, so you did that, too?
Shut up!
Oh, my God. Stop.
Or I can’t handle it.
What? What are you going to do?
To stop them.
Are you an idiot?
When two ruffians are fighting,
so be it.
Butt out
Yeah.
Fine. Stop standing around. Let’s go.
Are we just leaving?
Of course.
Before the evil manager
finds us,
why don’t we run away?
Are you really waiting to be ripped off?
Isn’t it bad
to leave without paying the bill?
Bad? Why?
Can you afford the bill?
Anyway, he’s so crafty.
He deserves it.
Let’s go.
I’ll beat you, ugly guy!
Beat you!
Let’s go.
Wait a second. Wait.
I have a question.
Why are you running?
We’re not afraid of them.
It’s not about if we’re afraid.
If you don’t want a fight,
run!
Wait a second.
What’s wrong?
I’m so full that I have a pain in my chest when I run.
May I have some rest before I run again?
Oh, my God.
Tell me this is just a dream.
There is such great power in the world.
Where does it come from?
Could it be from
the ruffians
who are fighting inside?
Impossible.
They look exactly like
ruffians.
Who the hell are they?
It seems the one we’re looking for
is in the restaurant.
But…
It seems we missed
the real General of Fire.
No.
We’re going back for him.
What’s wrong with you? Why did you stop?
I didn’t stop.
But I can’t control
my legs or arms.
So feeble.
Admit you’re scared.
Why are you lying?
I really don’t dare to go.
What a coward!
You only dare to shout at me.
Look how scared you are
in case of real problem!
That's bad.
They two are equal in match.
Which one of them
is General of Fire that we want?
Why… why is the restaurant collapsing?
Yeah. I don’t know, either.
What just happened?
Did we
have a fight?
I…
I think so.
But why did we
come to a fight?
Yeah.
Why?
Why can’t I remember anything?
I can’t remember, either.
Forget it.
Let’s get back and think of it.
We can fight again after we remember.
Good idea.
Let’s call it a day.
When we think of it,
we’ll duke it out.
Okay.
That’s a deal then.
Let’s go.
Come on.
All you alright?
Is anyone else hurt
except you?
Don’t worry.
All the others have run away.
Only I had the bad luck.
Fortunately, I met you.
Or I would have been dead.
Where are they?
Why did they disappear
in such a short time?
Finally,
they are gone.
Such two banes!
You mean…
Have you
seen them before?
Yeah, more than that.
But this is
a long story.
Could you tell me
where I can find them?
What?
You want to find them?
All people here
can’t help running away from them.
Don’t rush. Take your time.
My restaurant
isn’t worth much.
But I can’t afford it
when they come to make trouble
every now and then.
Since they arrived
in the town,
I have never enjoyed
any peace.
What’s the enmity
between you and them?
Why do they always come to make trouble?
They have no enmity with me.
I asked for it.
Do you know why I run the restaurant
in such a remote suburb?
Yeah. Why?
I know.
It’ll be easier for you to rip off customers.
Because this is an illegal restaurant!
You freak me out.
Why didn’t you make any sound
when you approached?
Are you going to scare me?
I told you!
Your ears don’t function well.
How dare you blame me?
Miss.
I am…
A little greedy for fortune.
But I’m not that as evil
as you imagine.
So you mean…
You have another purpose?
I set up the restaurant
so that they will not make trouble
in the town.
That’s because I found that
they loved the dishes I made.
So I had this plan.
Otherwise,
how can you find somewhere to stop over?
The whole town
has been laid flat by them.
Oh, that explains.
You really are responsible.
So you’re
a true hero.
Xiao’e, hurry.
Apologize to him.
Don’t.
I’m not a hero.
I just take more trouble.
Don’t worry.
We will take care of the ruffians
for you
and cut off evildoers.
What are you laughing at?
You look down on us, don’t you?
You think
we can’t do that, don’t you?
Not really.
Let me finish.
They two
are not complete ruffians.
Every time after they made trouble,
they’ll live a bag of pearls
as compensation.
So generous?
Think about it.
You are not losing money.
Instead, you make more profits.
Yeah, that’s why I said
I wasn’t a hero.
I’m just a merchant
who makes more money by taking more trouble.
But do keep the secret
for me!
No one else in town knows it yet.
Wait.
A bag of pearls
are worth ten restaurants.
Aren’t you a profiteer?
Awesome.
Manager.
You are really my idol.
I'm flattered. For the sake of your praise,
you’ll have 50%
off your room rent.
Wait.
How do you know
we’ll live in your hotel again?
Didn’t you say
you would go find them?
Yeah. Exactly.
Then you’ll have to stay in my hotel.
Manager.
Do they
really live there?
You saved my life.
Why would I lie to you?
I’ve never seen
a man like you
who wants only money instead of life.
No. No.
I mean brave…
I really admire you.
Xiao’e, seriously?
Are you too scared
to even enter into the hotel?
Don’t be scared, Miss.
They two are very kind
in normal times.
They never fight others.
They only fight each other.
For real?
Well, look at me
and you’ll know if it’s real.
I’m still alive, am I?
You made some sense.
But I’m…
I’m a girl anyway.
Who said
she would cut off evildoers?
I think
you have only empty talk.
Well, stay outside
by yourself.
We’re getting in.
Brother.
Brother, don’t leave me alone.
The Shang is prosperous
and His Majesty is virtuous.
Now,
people are submissive and our country is in peace.
His Majesty ordered to build the towering Star-picking Pavilion
to achieve merits over generations.
Accordingly, citizens in Zhaoge,
between seven and seventy
years old
must be enrolled as free labors
to build the Star-picking Pavilion.
Whoever disobeys will be severely punished.
Let me out! We’re getting out of town.
We haven’t violated the law.
Why can’t we leave town?
Get out of the way.
His Majesty commanded that
Zhaoge would be blocked
for the enrollment of labors.
Labors would be taken to the Star-picking Pavilion for the construction work.
All lazy and crafty guys
will be immediately executed.
The dead are not gone, and the living is in danger.
More people are on the Deification List.
Husband.
Doomed! Doomed!
Something happened.
Big trouble in Zhaoge.
Soldiers are everywhere.
They’re catching labors from door to door.
What you said came true.
I asked you to leave yesterday, but you refused.
Even if you want to leave today,
you can’t.
You can’t blame me for that.
Who else should I blame?
You jinxed it!
You’re an immortal.
Whatever you say will come true.
Can’t you say
something lucky?
Go! Hurry!
Go!
- Why are you catching me? - Go.
Back off.
Don’t caught my son!
Take them away.
Stop staring at them. Go!
Go!
Hurry!
How cruel!
Luckily, our children have left.
Luckily, you’re over seventy years old.
And you manage to get away from it.
Otherwise, you can’t complete the labor mission
until you die of exhaustion.
When you leave, you’ll never come back.
Where are you going?
You mustn’t leave.
I must go to divine for people.
How can I divine without going out?
People are waiting for me.
Divine what?
Everyone has his fate
under control now.
Do you need to divine for them?
The sky has fallen.
What will your divination help?
I…
I must help them.
Who needs your help?
I’ll be relieved
when you can save yourself.
Jiang Ziya.
You’re useless now.
Useless?
Why am I useless?
I just began to feel
I’m useful.
Sit over there.
Why can’t we
see any trace of them?
Would the manager
lie to us?
That’s not weird.
He’s a profiteer.
Why don’t you rush
at all?
Why must I rush?
Besides,
as long as I’m with you,
it’s okay to wait for some more days.
Get out.
Why must I?
No reason.
I want some peace.
No.
Leave!
No.
Brother.
Am I really that annoying?
How heartless you are!
