Why isn't he out yet? It's been so long.
He wouldn't have run would he?
Have him come out!
We can't just keep waiting.
Sect Leader Zhang
Zhang Cuishan has been inside for so long
Has he run away?
Yeah, yeah
Make him come out!
Everyone!
Please be patient.
When my pupil is ready
He will be here
It's a sword fight- what's there to prepare?
I think he's just afraid to lose!
Wudang disciples
are not cowards!
Then please invite him out
Unless, you are protecting your disciple
Protecting him! Get him out here!
Everyone
As you are here, you are my guests
I am obliged to host you with courtesy
But I will not tolerate slander
Leader Zhang
Emei has always respected Wudang
But today
Zhang Cuishan must come out
and give everyone a satisfactory answer
This is not just my personal grievance with him
If Master Zhang continues to delay
then that is a declaration of war by Wudang on the entire Wulin
Don't bother my Shifu!
I, Zhang Cuishan, am responsible for all my own actions
This matter has nothing to do with my beloved shifu
and has nothing to do with Wudang
Fine, then tell us where Golden Lion King is
Tell us! Tell us! Tell us!
I know...
all you of the Righteous sects are waiting for me
With such consideration you came for my Shifu's 100th birthday celebration
I also know your real motive is to get Golden Lion King's whereabouts!
In the end, it is all about the Dragon Sabre!
The precious Dragon Sabre
Honored by the Wulin, it commands the world.
Who dares disobey?
Don't worry. Today, I, Zhang Cuishan, will not disappoint you.
I will satisfy you all.
Shifu
I have let you down
I have let Wudang down
But I have one request.
Speak
My beloved son Wuji has fallen into the hands of evil people
Please save him Shifu
and nurture him till he is grown
"Three feet of steel
Cannot slice through the hate of this world."
5th brother
Father!
Mother!
Wuji!
You're back
All's well that you're back
Father!
Don't die!
Wake up!
Father!
Don't die!
Wake up father!
Father, wake up!
I don't want you to buy me candy
Mother, how did dad die?
They want to know where your godfather is.
No, we can't tell them!
Wuji
Look at all these people
Look carefully
They forced your dad to die
You must remember all their faces
Every pair of hands
is stained with your father's blood
Reverend Kongwen
Shaolin is held in high regard by all of Wulin
And you are well-respected as well
You are someone I trust
Come here
I will only tell Xiexun's whereabouts to you.
Madam if you had only decided to tell us earlier
Hero Zhang wouldn't be dead now
Golden-haired Lion King is...
[indistinct mumble]
What?
That's where Xiexun is
It is up to you all to go seek him
Where? What did you say? What?
What did she say?
What did she say? She didn't say anything!
You weren't clear! What did she say? She didn't say anything!
You weren't clear!
Mother why did you tell them where god-father is?
She clearly told you! She didn't say anything! Tell us or else!
Mother didn't say anything to them
Mother deceived them
Wuji
when you grow up
You must beware of women deceiving you
The prettier the woman
the more she will be able to deceive you
Do you understand?
I understand
Promise mother
No matter what happens
You must live on bravely
I understand mother
Let's go home
Mother!
Wuji!
He's burning here
Yet around here he's frozen to the bone
Wuji must be in immense pain
Master, what is Wuji suffering from?
"Xuanming Palms"
When Priest Baishou died
I thought this martial art had died with him
Shocking that there is still someone in this world who can wield this
Master
How can we save Wuji?
Only if my own Master came back to life
And imparts to me the full extent of the 9-yang technique
Who can it be, to do such a terrible thing to a child?
I only know that the person looked to be about 25 years old
High nosed, and didn't seem to be a Yuan soldier
In fact he seemed to be from the Persia
But since he took Wuji away, why did he return Wuji again?
He must have tried to interrogate Wuji and failed
And brought Wuji here to be his hostage
To force his parents to divulge the whereabouts of the Golden-haired Lion King
Cuishan!
You called me Master
and before you left you entrusted Wuji to my care
yet I
cannot protect even your beloved only child
I have lived my 100 years in vain
Wudang's glorious name
has also been in vain
Master
Wuji
He's awake
His poison seems to have subsided
He could be saved!
It is only temporary
In truth his poison has gone deep into his bones
Eventually it will spread to every part of him
Then....
Master, do you mean there is nothing we can do?
Death is predestined
Father! Mother!
I miss you
Wuji you must be strong
And live well
You must practice Wugong
so you can avenge them!
I don't want revenge!
I just want my dad and mom back
That's impossible
Those left living must keep going the best we can
To give peace and comfort to the dead
Father, mother, Wuji won't cry
Wuji will not worry you, Wuji won't cry
Wuji will live the best he can
Wuji you hold a brush like so
Understand?
Hahah, Wuji, no, not like that!
Watch! Like so!
Now you try
Why this again?
Left-right-left-right-left-right-left-right
Look over there!
What do you think?
Gimme!
Just like this and then like this
Wuji
look
now it's done!
Fun, right?
Thank you 7th uncle
3rd uncle there are so many stars
Is it pretty?
Very pretty!
That one is my favorite one!
You also love that one?
3rd uncle
Good!
The evening is beautiful
Here's the heater
Quickly wrap the blanket around him
Here, eat it
What's wrong?
Not bad.
You've grasped the beginnings of [skill name]
Remember
persist daily
practicing for a full cycle
your body will exude dew (sweat?)
your elixir field will feel something
that will lead to the yang and yin something
will lead to the icy poison gradually dissipating
Grand master
Don't worry, I've commited the Jiu Yang Shen Gong you taught me to memory
I've also finished reading the Tao Te Ching you gave me.
Very good!
But reading alone is insufficient.
One must fully understand the concepts too.
I find the philosophy in the book
and the chi cultivating methods you taught me to have similarities
It says something self something something
All things exist between heaven and earth constantly circulating
That you could have observed that
shows you have aptitude
Thank you, grandmaster
I'll recite it as a gift for mid-autumn festival? What do you say?
There's no need to be too serious
That your grand master can witness your smile
is your biggest gift to me
Master!
Sect Master Yin is here
Wuji
You keep practicing your kung fu whilst your 6rd uncle supervises you.
No slacking off!
Sect master Yin has graced us with his presence. Forgive me for not receiving you sooner
Master Zhang is too polite!
My respects to Master Zhang
They are here again to try to take Wuji away
Previously when I came to take Wuji you repeatedly rebuffed me
But today my father has come personally and brought
many mid-autumn festival gifts surely you must give him some face
Master Zhang is an understanding person
surely you won't obstruct Wuji from reuniting with his relatives?
Sect Master Yin, I can appreciate your affection towards Wuji,
Naturally, tonight you may stay with Wuji
and spend mid-autumn festival with him
But...
if you want to take Wuji away from Wudang
forgive me I can not grant your wish.
Susu was my daughter
Wuji is her son and my grandchild
A grandfather taking his grandchild to raise
is most reasonable. I don't understand what objection you can raise Master Zhang to ostruct our family reuniting
I simply wish to fulfil a pledge I made to my late student
by raising Wuji
I will not go back on my word
You and other 5 sects
are no different from other unenlightened commoners but claim to be special
and look down on our Eagle sect don't you?
Insolence! How dare you disrespect my master?
I'd say the reason you are in such a rush to take Wuji away is because
you want to find the dragon sabre.
What did you say?
Father!
There's no need bicker with them
Today they need to hand him over whether they like it or not.
You dare?!
Insolence! Do not be rude.
I have no desire to break apart a family
I'm keeping Wuji at Wudang
entirely out of consideration for his own good
Master Zhang
Wuji
is of my own bloodline
Must you cut this piece of flesh from me?
Are you not aware
that I would love my own flesh even more than yourselves?
In terms of blood
whom amongst you can compare with us?
What should you keep Wuji here?
I get it now...
the ones that want the dragon sabre are you guys!
Grandmaster, is my grandfather here?
Wuji
Come here
Let me see you
Dear child
You look like your mother, just like Susu
I'm your grandfather
Good child
Are you really my grandfather?
Yes, I am your grandfather
I'm here to take you home today
Your mother left the world early
I can't bear to lose you as well
Alright, come home with me
Wuji
I'm your uncle
I guarantee I will treat you well
as if you were my own son
Wuji
Wuji, what's the matter, don't you want to come with your grandfather and uncle?
We will adore you
I want to be with grandfather
but I also don't want to leave my grandmaster
Wuji
Wuji. Wuji, what's the matter? Wuji
Master
Wuji, he...
Even though Wuji has grasped the Jiu Yang manual's inner power verses
the ice poison has already permeated into his meridians and collaterals. It is difficult to eradicate.
When his ice poison symptoms arise
the suffering he has to endure will increase over time
If things continue like this
I fear he won't live long
How could this happen? Wasn't he fine just earlier?
Wuji is very considerate and even if he doesn't feel well
he will grit his teeth and smile
Poor wuji
My dear grandson
Did you just use your limitless pure yang skill to heal Wuji?
If we combine that with the thousand year old ginseng might there be some extraordinary results?
During this time we've tried multitudes of valuable herbs and elixirs
with no effect at all
What use would more ginseng be?
That's true
even though master expended several decades of inner power
all that managed was to clear a portion of Wuji's ice poison
and lower his suffering a little
I never thought that
master Zhang
sacrificed so much to treat Wuji
I wrongly maligned you
Please forgive me master Zhang
I also was offensive earlier
I request that elder punishes me
Master Zhang
I beg you to keep thinking of a solution
to save dear Wuji
Back then when Reverend Jue Yuan imparted the Jui Yang Classic
my learning of it was incomplete
Even though I have secluded myself several times in order to painstakingly piece it together
I have only managed to understand around 30-40%
It seems the only route is to ask Abbot Kong Wen
and hope to come up with a more complete version
That way Wuji may have a chance
Master
Shaolin sect and ours have deep rifts
why waste your time going to beg them?
Oh my!
We've finally arrived at Shaoshi mountain
Up there
is Shaolin monastery
It's been 80 years
the surroundings haven't changed
80 years!
Even my parents weren't yet born.
That is correct
Do you see that little path there?
It was there, many years ago that Reverend Jue Yuan
carried heroine Guo Xiang and myself in a wooden water pail
to escape from Shaolin monastery
Why did you have to escape from Shaolin monastery, grand master?
Reverend Jue Yuan
was responsible for the library in Shaolin monstery back in those days
Even though his position was low
he was hard working and motivated to learn.
the classics and manuals in the library had all been memorized by him
Each day when we would chop firewood and carry water
I would listen to him recite passages from the books
I never imagined that
therin contained was the incomplete Jui Yang Classic
Shaolin monastery
has a rule
If one wishes to learn Shaolin martial arts
then one must officially become a student
Those who secretly learn
will receive punishment to the legs
They wrongly accused me
...thinking I had secretly learnt skills without permission
and wanted to cut the tendons on my legs
It was fortunate that reverend Jue Yuan
hid me in a wooden pail
and smuggled me out of Shaolin monastery
but he himself died from his exertions
Reverend Jue Yuan sacrificed himself to save others
That is worthy of respect
The Reverend's personality and actions
have made him my life's greatest role model
Even though I was not his official student
In my heart
he was always my master
Grand master
Does this mean that by coming to Shaolin
and obtaining the Jiu Yin Zhen Jing
that I can be saved?
Amitabha [Buddhist phrase]
May I enquire as to what business you have here?
May I trouble you to pass on a message
that Wudang Sect's Zhang Sanfeng is here to see your Abbot
You are really Divine Zhang?
Yes.
I am really him.
Elder brother? Junior brother, you probably don't know this.
Divine Zhang is actually a Shaolin traitor
so impersonating him gets him no advantage here
Then we'd better hurry and inform our master
Please wait here.
I've troubled you to come receive. I am most unworthy of this honour.
Amitabha
Divine Zhang has come from afar. How might I assist you?
I have a favour to ask
My practice of the Jiu Yin Zhen Jing
has many incomplete areas
and thus parts which I cannot fully understand
If Shaolin would share your knowlege
I would be most grateful
Naturally I would be willing to share
all that I have learnt with Shaolin
so both sides can end up with a more complete version
Amitabha
Wudang's martial arts originated from Shaolin
if we exchange our knowledge
then people in the martial community who don't know the truth of the matter
will say that although Divine Zhang had his roots in Shaolin
Shaolin also benefited from Wudang
Grandmaster
Abbot, you should not view things from a sectarian perspective
I'm only so anxious for this
to save my beloved student's only son that he entrusted to me
He has been attacked by the Xuan Ming Palms
Only by learning the complete Jui Yang Classic can he purge the Yin poison
This child's life hangs in the balance
Ordained clergy should show compassion
I hope you will think of Buddha and his desire to save people
Please save this child
Amitabha
At the root of it this is Wudang's internal affairs
What has this got to do with Shaolin?
I don't need you to save me
None of you are good people, insulting my grand master,
causing the death of Reverend Jue Yuan
pressuring my parents to death! Did you think I forgot?
I recognize all your faces very clearly.
I don't need you to save me!
Grand master let's leave
Before her death my mother told me to remember their faces
If my martial arts become powerful I must get revenge
Wuji
Grand master
Wait up for me
Grand master
Take care. You are too fast!
Sit here and rest a while. Alright
Wuji
You cannot fill your heart with and constantly think of revenge
You must learn to forgive
Do you understand?
But these bad people got Reverend Jue Yuan killed and forced you to leave
as well as branding you a Shaolin traitor, do you not despise them?
If I let those things bother me
then I would be letting their errors torture me
Just like your godfather Xie Xun
who cannot let go of his enmity for even a moment
The reality is
the one who suffers as a result is himself
That is true, my godfather lives unhappily
Revenge is a never ending cycle
By learning to forgive others that is the biggest mercy you can show to yourself
Grandmaster
I've been too uncontrolled and impulsive
You toiled to take me to Shaolin to heal me
and yet I ruined it
You're not wrong
One should be forgiving and magnanimous
But...
at the same time one must not lose their basic dignity and respect
Those 3 monks
are so stubborn and clouded
that continuing to converse with them
would be pointless anyway
What's the matter Wuji?
Quickly, sit down, sit .
Take a look
It's a fist fighting luohan (buddhist equivalent of a saint)
How meaningful!
Shall we buy it?
Grand master, you're of such advanced age
why do you still like such things?
I suppose it's because I haven't gotten out in so long
Grand master
you're worrying about me again aren't you?
Grand master
You don't need to worry about me
I don't fear death anymore
because once I die
I can see my parents
Isn't that great?
Silly child
Don't think of such silly things
While the Shaolin route didn't work out
we can still think of other solutions
Do you know
that in the heavens
there are many gods that relieve suffering and hardship?
They are most drawn
to helping kind, compassionate and forgiving children
Understand?
Really?!
Then I best stay out more so that the gods notice me sooner
Alright, lets go.
Dear Grand master
You didn't lie to me
There really are gods in the heavens
The Goddess of Mercy came down to save me
I have gone with her
Please don't worry about me, grand master
All will be fine with me
The Goddess of Mercy adores me
I am very happy
Please toil no more
Don't be sad nor miss me
Please return to Mount Wudang
Once I am healed
I will return
Are you ok?
Wake up
Don't be scared.
Don't worry, I'll take you to see a doctor
Is that better?
Don't be afraid
Are you feeling better now?
Just now...
thank you for that
Why are you all alone in the forest?
Where's your family?
I'm all alone
I have no family nor home.
I'm about to die of illness anyway
So don't bother with me
Even if you have the flu it can be healed. I'll take you to my home.
Then we'll get a doctor, alright?
It's no use. Really, don't bother with me.
I'm just waiting to die here.
Nobody has to *something*
Wake up. If you are really about to die then I definitely can't leave you.
Wake up! Please wake up!
Wake up!
