The Untamed
Episode 29
A-Yuan. A-Yuan.
- Come here, come here. - No. Don't want to. Don't want to.
A-Yuan. You're in his way.
He is not. Let him sit.
Well, A-Yuan, morals fell.
Mom nourishes, Dad has money.
Bro Xian.
Good, it's good. A-Yuan knows to offer me.
Eat without speech.
Don't talk while eating.
This is outrageous.
He listens if I repeat myself.
You only had to say it once.
Absurd.
Eat without speech. You too.
You really don't change.
Why are you in Yiling?
I know this area well.
Want me to show you around?
Lan Zhan, you're an awful liar.
Did you come here for me.
Lan Zhan, I wanted to invite you to my place.
But if you want to talk about guqin stuff and meditation stuff,
forget it.
- I'm in control. No-one need save me. - Wei Ying.
That'll do, Lan Zhan.
I ran into an old friend who's not avoiding me.
These months, I'm suffocating.
Why don't you tell me about big events outside?
What counts as big?
Any new sects?
Or a sect expansion?
Or which sects allied?
Chat about anything.
- Marriage alliance. - Marriage?
Which sect with which?
Lanling Jin Sect. Yunmeng Jiang Sect.
You mean my Senior...
Lady Jiang and Jin Zixuan?
When is it? When's the wedding?
In half a month.
Such a big event.
Jiang Cheng, that jerk, didn't notify me.
But even so,
even if he told me, what could I do?
Publicly, Jiang Cheng announced
I defected from Jiang Sect.
I have no ties to Jiang Sect anymore.
No use in his telling me.
Jin Zixuan got the better deal.
Lan Zhan, what do you think of this marriage?
Sure, why'd I ask you?
You won't care about such things.
I know many people
say Senior Sister isn't good enough for Jin Zixuan.
But in my eyes, that peacock clearly doesn't deserve her.
Lan Zhan, do you know?
Senior Sister deserves the best man.
Jiang Cheng and I said, even after 100 years,
her wedding would be admired.
None would compare.
I want to see my Senior Sister wed in splendour.
Mn.
Why "mn"? I won't be able to see it.
Wei Ying.
Oh no. It's Burial Mound.
Lan Zhan, we must go.
Lan Zhan, why follow us?
Why not sword-fly?
Forgot to bring it.
- Childe Wei. - A-Yuan. - Uncle Four, what's up?
It's Demon Subduing Cave. Something happened.
I set a seal. Who touched it?
No-one did.
It-it's—
A-Ning!
Wen Ning!
I used Tiger Seal to heal Wen Ning—
to help him regain his mind.
It's the last step.
I didn't expect...
A-Ning.
I said not to touch his talismans.
No-one did.
No-one entered Blood Pool.
He went into a rampage.
He destroyed the seals at Blood Pool and the Cave.
The Pool's resentful energy got out.
Wen Qing, take them away.
Lady Wen, hurry.
The Talisman Ward is ruined. No-one can stop him.
Don't let him off the mountain.
A-Ning.
Light-bearer Lord, go easy on him.
A-Ning.
- Lady Wen. - Lady Wen.
Lan Zhan. Wait a bit.
Ch...Childe.
Wen Ning.
Childe Wei.
A-Ning. A-Ning.
Sis-sister.
- It's done. It's done. A-Ning awoke. - A-Ning.
Let's tell everyone!
- I am your sis. - A-Ning awoke!
It's your sis.
A-Ning.
How do you feel now?
I...want to cry.
But...
I'm unable to cry.
You had a nightmare.
It's alright now.
You succeeded.
Of course.
I had to do what I said I would.
Lan Zhan.
Since you're here, pay a visit?
Demon Subduing Cave?
That's right. I named it. How is it?
I know.
You probably think "nothing much".
Actually, I've heard rumours—
my path is demonic
so how can a demon like me call my den 'Demon Subduing'.
But they're all wrong.
I named it that
for a different meaning,
nothing to do with Xue Chonghai's Demon Subduing Palace.
What is it?
Easy. I often sleep here.
Where a devil lies subdued in sleep,
won't it be Demon Subduing Cave?
Come. I'll show you around.
Heavy dark energy.
True. It's heavy but suits demonism.
This is my healing place
like your Cold Spring.
Wen Ning healed his injuries here once.
But Tiger Seal extracted all Wen Ning's original resentment.
This pool began to smell like blood.
So it's called Blood Pool.
Wei Ying.
What?
You really can control it?
Control what? You mean Wen Ning?
Of course, it's no problem.
Look. He regained cognition, right?
If he loses it again, then what?
I have experience with him like that.
Now he's under Tiger Seal control.
I just have to control Tiger Seal,
then there's no problem.
What if something happens to you or Tiger Seal?
It won't.
How can you be sure?
It won't, and it can't.
From now on, will you stay like this?
What's wrong with it?
I tell you, don't look down on my place.
My mountain is bigger than Cloud Recesses.
Our food is better too.
Wei Ying, you know what I mean.
Lan Zhan, you...
You amaze me.
I changed the topic and you resumed it.
Your injury.
No. My small injury needs no spiritual power.
I just need to sit to heal.
Sit a bit and it heals itself?
You think I'm dead?
Childe Wei. Childe Lan.
Why are you here?
Finished crying so soon?
See how I make you cry.
What a joke. By yourself?
You're cruel.
Wei Ying.
I have more cruel things.
Want to try? Hm?
No, no, no. I don't want to try.
Childe Wei, I'm sorry.
Alright.
You think one punch can hurt me.
Wait.
What's up? How can we give him plain water?
Where's the tea?
I asked just now. There's no tea.
This isn't right, Wen Ning.
Next time a guest comes, we must...
That's true. When do we get guests?
Let's go. I'll walk you down mountain.
Lan Zhan, you asked me just before
if I will stay like this?
Honestly, I have a question.
Except for this, what can I do?
Do I forgo demonism
and hand over Tiger Seal?
What about these people on the mountain?
Do I give them up?
I cannot.
If you were me, I believe you couldn't.
Can anyone give me a bright, easy path?
A path without demonic ways,
without Tiger Seal,
able to protect people I wish to protect?
Lan Zhan, thank you.
Thanks for your company today.
And thanks for news of Senior Sister's marriage.
But let self judge right and wrong.
Let others praise or blame. Let gains and losses go.
I know what I should and shouldn't do.
I also believe I'll be able to control it.
Big Bro, Big Bro!
Bro, you won't eat with us?
Childe Wei, sorry. A-Yuan came himself...
A-Yuan, come here.
Here.
A-Yuan.
A-Yuan, Bro has food at home. He won't stay.
But I heard a secret.
There's good food today.
A-Yuan.
I am leaving.
Bro Xian, will Bro Rich be back?
What Bro Rich?
The rich Brother is Bro Rich!
You like him that much?
- Give it back! - Grab it!
Give it back, he got me that!
No, I won't.
Unless you say you like Bro Xian.
I like Bro Xian!
Okay, here.
Bro Xian, will Bro Rich come back or not?
Probably not.
Why not?
No reason.
In this world, everyone has their own things to do,
their own paths to walk.
Oooh.
Who cares about the crowded, broad road?
I’ll walk a single-plank bridge in the dark!
In the dark!
I’ll walk a single-plank bridge...
Dark? It's not dark at all.
[ Demon Subduing Palace ]
No hurry. Everyone gets some.
Thanks, enough.
Why's everyone still up?
Is this enough?
Can I get more?
Meat!
Childe, you're here!
You hung costly lanterns.
We hung them for you.
We’ll make path lanterns.
Since you walk in the dark,
you may slip and break bones.
Hurry and sit.
Sit, sit.
No-one ate?
We waited for you.
Why wait for me?
These days, you've worked hard.
You’re talking nicely to me.
I’m kind of scared.
Actually, they wanted to eat with you
so they can thank you.
But you jump and run around,
or seclude yourself in the Cave
and let no-one disturb you.
They don’t want to disturb your work.
They thought you disliked interacting with them.
So they feared talking to you.
Since A-Ning woke, everyone was too busy
to have a good chat.
Fine if you don't eat. Just sit
and chat over drinks.
- Here, everyone sit. - Sit.
Drinks? There's wine?
There's wine, there's wine.
Here.
I made wild fruit liquor.
Try it.
Uncle Four likes to drink and can make wine.
He made this for today.
That so? I have to try it.
Good aroma.
So good! Another bowl.
You cooked all this?
A-Ning did.
A-Ning?
Bro Charcoal, Bro Charcoal!
Here, everyone! Drink up.
A toast to Childe Wei!
Drink up!
Come.
Come, eat!
- Here, Uncle Four. - Here.
Cheers.
Good wine.
Uncle Four, one more.
You can't drink anymore?
Here, let's drink!
No, I can't.
You can't drink anymore?
Wen Qing, the wine's gone.
There are four jars left. We'll save them for later.
How could this be?
People say—
A good reputation when dead
can't match a good wine when alive.
Fill it up, thanks.
There's no next time.
But I think you should quit drinking. You drink too much.
This place isn't Cloud Recesses.
Why should I quit drinking?
Wen Qing.
Lan Zhan and I first met
when I took Emperor's Smile
into Cloud Recesses.
You should've seen his face.
It was so stony.
But Gusu Emperor's Smile
tastes really good.
I don't know
if I'll ever get to drink it again.
I'm really useless.
I promised my Senior Sister
I'd hold a grand wedding for her.
But now, I can't even attend her wedding.
I'm useless. I'm useless.
I'm really useless.

[ Yiling Teahouse ]
Do you guys know?
If I go upslope,
I'll reach Burial Mound.
Burial Mound? Where that traitor,
Yiling Patriarch, lives?
That's right.
You dare to die?
Wei Wuxian has a fierce puppet, Wen Ning.
Yeah. Folk say Wen Ning is incomparably fast and strong.
And his cognition is preserved.
He's fiercer than Wen Sect puppets.
No wonder he's Ghost General.
Brother, I warn you. Don't go.
If Wen Ning—
You guys don't know.
Wei Wuxian invented devices
like Compass of Evil, Flame Talisman, etc.
People seek to be his disciples.
I also seek this.
Everyone, everyone. Look here.
I am Yiling Patriarch's senior disciple.
Today I'll show you his new talisman.
(banner: Hail, Yiling Patriarch, Supreme Lord of Evil)
Everyone. This Flame Talisman combats evil winds.
It's essential for home or travel.
Just a silver coin for one.
Hey, hey, hey. I want one...
- Give me one. - I want one.
Don't rush. Everyone, don't rush.
What's this?!
You use a Flame Talisman trick
to bluff people in Yiling Patriarch's name.
Don't you feel ashamed?
- Impressive! - Yeah. - Who's real or fake?
He's expert!
Who are you?
Who am I?
I just came from Burial Mound.
My Teacher never had a disciple like you.
You're saying I'm fake!
I think you're fake.
Everyone, look.
These are my Teacher's newest talismans.
It's not his sort of Flame Talisman.
Please don't be fooled.
You talk nonsense.
I talk nonsense?
Where's the proof?
Don't be fooled by him. He's a liar.
Who the liar is, everybody knows.
Liar, I'm Yiling Patriarch's head disciple.
I'm head disciple.
You dare pretend to be!
Believe me! I'm head disciple.
I'm head disciple.
- He's a liar. - Here's Teacher's talisman.
What is this?
Everyone, ignore this liar.
Let's go.
Wow. Here.
What happened?
Is he okay?
Childe Wei.
- What's going on? - Are you okay?
What happened?
Don't worry.
It's nothing, just a small problem.
Go, go.
- Keep working. - Go, go.
No need to look. Go work.
Let's go back to work.
What device is that?
Compass of Evil. It's powerful.
Here.
- Go buy meat. - Okay.
So little money.
Take this bag of radishes.
Sell them.
Wen Ning.
Sorry.
Let's go.
Cloud Recesses bans liquor but said nothing about this.
Tastes as good as Emperor's Smile.
Here, for you.
