Legend of White Snake
Episode 11
Don't blame me for being heartless, who asks you to be so unlucky.
Seeing what you shouldn't have seen.
I didn't expect there would be so many secrets at Liang Manor.
I will reveal them.
I will repeat myself.
I only asked you to get rid of XuXian, who asked you to touch SuZhen?
I didn't!
If I didn't do that, how would I get rid of Bai Suzhen's suspicions?
Xu Xian is taking the punishment on her behalf.
She won't suspect you.
Everything you say is true?
If you don't believe me, you can personally go ask Ms. Bai the true circumstances.
I only used the Demon Shackle to lock her up in prison.
Other than that, I didn't do anything else.
If I go ask her personally, wouldn't she start to have suspicions towards me.
I advise you not to do your foxy tricks with me.
If Xu Xian doesn't die in a few days, I'll let you die.
Don't worry.
I'll definitely make Prime Minister Liang execute Xu Xian.
But it's best that you do not stay in Lin-an City for the next few days.
This way, no matter what happens,
Bai Suzhen will not come to suspect you.
I have my own idea on what I need to do.
I don't need you to tell me what to do.
You are now a seven-tailed fox.
If you don't want to become a dead fox,
then don't come up with any wrong ideas.
So you are saying that your father wanted to impeach Prime Minister Liang back then,
so the Prime Minister is so vengeful that he would rather kill you than pursue the real murderer.
In additional to the old conflicts,
I suspect that the evidence that my father collected still exists now.
Prime Minister Liang is afraid of what Xu family will do,
so he wants to eliminate us all.
So that's why he sent men to search your home.
Search my home? Are my sister and brother-in-law okay?
Don't worry. Your sister is fine.
It's just that...they took some items with them.
We don't know if there was any evidence in there.
I mentioned the things that my father left that day,
it was to purposely test what he would do.
Therefore, you understand regardless how this case will be resolved,
he will definitely see you dead.
That's why you don't defend yourself and won't let me help, right?
Prime Minister Liang is ruthless and powerful.
To fight him openly is like throwing an egg against a rock.
He can even fool the Emperor at the royal court.
Only the compassionate Prince Mu can counter him.
Then I will go to Prince Mu.
But Prince Mu has been commanding the army in the outer region these years.
It's like having a fire but the water is too far to help.
Suzhen, I just have one favor to ask of you.
Speak. I will definitely do it.
When I was young, Prince Mu and I were friends.
I will write a letter.
Please find a way to get the letter to Prince Mu.
I'll list all the problems about Prime Minister Liang in the letter,
so that Prince Mu can pursue the case.
If our grievances can be vindicated,
my father and I will be content in the netherworld.
Don't say this kind of depressing talk.
Hanwen, listen to me. You can't give up.
If you die, I won't take care of your family for you.
I will come after you, from heaven to hell,
I will always find you.
Suzhen.
If you live, I live.
In life we accompany each other, same as in death.
So even if it's just for me, you should not give up.
I don't care how Prime Minister Liang will control everything,
I'm not afraid. I will definitely save you from this place.
I promise. I'll take good care of myself.
I'll wait for you to come save me.
Miss Bai, Miss Bai. Come with me now.
I tell you, that prisoner committed suicide out of fear for his crime.
Leave with me now to avoid more problems. Hurry!
Go now, Suzhen.
Sir! Sir! I have bad news.
Prince Mu has surrounded the manor with his people, saying you embezzled funds and falsely blamed a colleague.
He even says he'll take you to be interrogated at the Ministry of Justice.
Sir! Sir!
What's wrong?
Sir! Sir! Are you all right?
Are you hurt?
I'm fine.
So it was a dream.
How are things going?
The men we sent were unable to kill Xu Xian.
Useless!
You can't even kill a scholar who has no strength to tie up a rooster.
How did you handle things?
It was our fault.
We almost did it but were interrupted by Li Gongfu and Bai Suzhen.
But rest assured, as long as they don't find a living culprit, they won't find us.
Who did you say interrupted you?
Li Gongfu and Bai Suzhen.
They suddenly appeared in prison and even spoke a lot with Xu Xian.
It's not wise to try again so soon.
No matter what, you must capture Bai Suzhen.
It's very likely that she took the evidence. Kill her after capturing her.
Yes, Sir.
- But... - But what?
I heard that Bai Suzhen is no ordinary person. She seems to know some trickery.
I'm afraid it won't be easy to capture her.
I don't care what you do. She cannot live!
Yes, Sir.
Quickly do your job!
Hurry!
Chivalrous lady, please save me. They want to kill me to shut me up.
- Officer Li. - Officer Li.
You're all busy.
The perfect is looking for me today...
- Why are you running off? - Officer Li.
Greetings, Lord Perfect.
Is there any reason to ask me to come?
Men, come take off Constable Li's blade.
Li Gongfu is dismissed from his constable position at the Qiantang County.
- Yes, Sir. - Hold on.
Lord, I didn't commit any crime and you want me to resign?
Xu Xian is your wife's younger brother. Stop trying to evade this. You tried to use your occupation
to privately release Xu Xian.
No, Lord. I went to check Xu Xian that night.
I didn't privately released him.
Stop arguing.
I have decided to sack you.
- You are not needed forever. - Lord.
Lord!
Lord, you have to distinguish between right and wrong! I'm innocent!
I have offended you, Older Brother.
You are really taking it off?
Let me tell you, I will be back.
Sharpen my sword twice a day.
Okay, Older Brother.
Do what you are supposed to do!
Steward Qin, is the Prime Minister happy with my arrangement of the sacking?
You did very well. The Prime Minister hopes to conclude the case as soon as possible.
He doesn't want the killer of his son
to live for too long..
The case will end soon.
Prime Minister Liang is afraid that evidence of his corruption will fall into the hands of the Xu family.
That's why he wants to kill Xu Xian.
Who's the killer who killed his son?
No, I must stay calm.
They didn't succeed in taking action the first time. They will plan for the second time.
I must find the real killer as soon as possible. If not, Han Wen will be in danger.
Xiao Qing, you are back.
If I don't come back, you will be badly bullied by others.
You are hopelessly stupid. Don't say that you are my older sister.
No need to investigate further. I already did it for you.
Really?
Of course. When I take action, nothing is impossible for me.
Lu Yi, come in.
Greetings, Miss Bai.
She's Liang Jun's concubine. She lost favors when Hu Kexin entered the family.
By the way, Hu Kexin almost killed her. I saved her.
Okay, tell her quick. Why did He Kexin want to kill you?
I accidentally found out that He Kexin wanted to harm Old Master Liang.
That day,
I wanted to uncover her wrongdoings.
Coincidentally, I saw her behaving suspiciously and tailed her.
Madam, Madam.
The Datura flower that you wanted, I got it for you.
Did the physician suspect anything when you got this?
How could he? I broke the limbs of several people
and told them to go to the pharmacies in the city to seek treatments.
The pharmacies prescribed Datura flowers for them to stop the pain.
Take a look. The entire supply of Datura flowers is here.
Thank you very much for this.
Who's there?!
I quietly escaped that day
but she subsequently discovered the leaves that were stuck on my shoes.
She found out the matter was exposed and wanted to kill me to shut my mouth.
Do you know where the balance of the unused Datura flowers are?
Hu Kexin hid them
underneath a peach tree at the back of the superficial mountain.
I get it now. Stay here for the time being. It's not safe out there.
Thank you, Miss Bai.
Older Sister, the truth is finally out about Prime Minister Bai. He Kexin is too evil.
It's all part of her scheme. She wanted to take my thousand year old spirit pellet. That's why she plotted this.
Hu Kexin?
She was that nine-tailed fox at Bai manor.
She took the Demon Shackle from Jing Song
and wanted to obtain the thousand year old Spirit Pellet from me.
Han Wen took the punishment on my behalf. That's how he saved me.
Ridiculous.
I already said that rotten rat is not a good creature.
He's too much. He even wanted to harm you. Watch how I tear apart his rat's hole.
That vixien is highly skilled in manipulating people's heart.
She first impersonated Han Wen to deceive you in order to instigate our friendship.
She subsequently instigated Jing Song to go against Han Wen.
She wanted to produce disagreements among us and destroy us.
So, she impersonated Xu Xian?
I was even hoodwinked by that vixen.
I will skin her when I see her next!
What did you just say?
I just said...I will skin her when I see her next...
No, the sentence before this.
I was even hoodwinked by that vixen.
That's right. Camouflage. Why didn't I think of this?
Xiao Qing, put up a performance with me.
I want to give her a taste of her own medicine.
Alright.
Look at what's posted there.
- What's written there? - Physician Xu will be beheaded.
This is bad.
They are going to behead Mister Xu Xian tomorrow at noon.
I'm going to tear that notice.
Wait.
Beheading of criminals is after autumn.
They disregarded the law and even put up such a fanfare.
I fear they want to lure the snake out from the hole.
Lure the snake? Are you saying they want to capture us?
Look carefully at the surroundings in detail.
That is...
That's a hidden demon spell from Lingyin Temple.
I wonder what tricks Hu Kexin is up to
to join force with the magistrate to take us down.
What should we do? Mister Xu Xian will be beheaded.
Are we going to sit and do nothing?
They want to use a praying mantis to catch the cricket. Let's come up with a plan.
[ Nüwa Temple ]
Someone is here.
Fall back into positions!
Get up. Quick.
Hurry up.
Miss Bai, what brings you here?
Greetings, Respected Immortals.
I'm here to ask for a favor. I wonder if you could help me.
What did she just call me? Respected Immortal?
It has been more than five hundred years.
Someone finally acknowledged us.
It suddenly sound so lofty.
I feel rather shy about this.
How did you know our identities?
I saw you using the Dragon Palace Secret Treasure to reinforce the spell at Bai manor.
I guessed you must be Respected Immortals from Eastern Sea.
You are touring the Mortal Realm. I believe you have a task to do.
Xiao Qing's identity is probably not that ordinary, right?
Miss Bai is smarter than others. You are right.
Xiao Qing is definitely not a Little Snake Spirit from West Lake.
It's just that, her identity...
we dare not reveal it. Please keep this a secret for us.
If Xiao Qing finds out our identities, there will be big trouble.
Respected Immortals, don't worry. If not, I wouldn't have come here alone with Xiao Qing.
I'm here because of Mister Xu Xian's case.
I have a presumptuous request.
Miss Bai, it's fine. Just tell us.
Xiao Qing and I found out that a critical evidence for this case is in Liang manor.
But there's a Demon Shackle there. We can't resist it.
You are a group of Respected Immortals. You are probably not afraid of it.
Hence, I would like to request that you go with me.
I see. Don't worry.
We can definitely do it.
Thank you very much.
Come, excuse me.
Excuse me.
Ah Luo, the big drum. Tear this now!
The magistrate misjudged the case and disregarded a human's life!
Physician Xu was falsely accused.
Move aside.
The magistrate misjudged the case and disregarded a human's life!
Liang Jun was killed by someone else.
Physician Xu was falsely accused.
Liang Jun was killed by someone else and Physician Xu was accused in his place.
What are you doing?
Let's go!
Stop there!
Let's go.
What?
Which Bai's people are you from?
Why can't I sense the spirit energy in your body?
Do you think we are like you who's a rancid vixen?
You stink so bad that the whole street can even smell you.
Don't be happy. With this Demon Shackle, you won't be able to escape.
After Xu Xian's beheading, I will return to eliminate you.
- Demon Shackle? - We are doomed.
Bad news, Lord.
Lord, someone out there beat the drum to air his grievance again.
Someone beat the drum again? Who was it?
It's Xu Xian's older sister, Xu Jiaorong.
She insisted that we falsely accused Xu Xian. She's here to beat the drum.
What ruckus is she creating?
His case has already been concluded.
Tell her to get lost. If she still doesn't,
cane her.
But she's not the only one out there.
Whoever else is out there, just cane them.
Magistrate, who are you trying to cane?
Greetings, Marquis Mu.
The murder of Liang Jun is rather suspicious.
Furthermore, the Xu family found a critical evidence.
Aren't you going to re-open the case and re-investigate immediately?
Yes.
Demon Shackle?
Ha!
The fox has eyes, but is blind.
We are the real immortals.
Exactly.
[ Impartial and Discerning Judgement ]
Your Excellency, this medical journal proves that Jishi Hall does not have datura flowers at all.
Xu Xian could not have mixed datura flowers into Liang Jun's medication.
The various medicine shopkeepers in Lin'an City have confirmed that someone bought all of the datura flowers.
Moreover, Miss Lu Yi testimony proves that
the one who bought a large supply of datura flowers
was Hu Kexin.
The case is clear now. Your Excellency, can we close the case?
These are only the statements from one party.
That's true. A case cannot be judged from the testimony of one party.
This is a matter of life and death. We must be prudent, of course.
Then how about we take a trip to Lord Liang's estate?
Interrogate that Hu Kexin properly.
This...Yes, Sir.
What do you think?
Stop walking like a crab.
Then how should I walk?
This is the celestial wine from the Dragon King's palace.
Whoever drinks this, it will show their original forms.
Hu Kexin will not be able to hide her fox tail anymore.
- Did you get that? - Let's go.
Old Master just passed away. I'm still showing filial piety.
I can only use tea to replace wine as a toast to you.
I wonder why you are here.
There are still some doubts regarding Lord Liang's case.
I'm here with Marquis Mu to re-look at the case.
Prince Mu?
Miss Kexin. What's the matter?
De-Demon!
Quick! Catch that demon!
It's datura flower.
So it was that demon that killed Magistrate Liang!
After her! We must catch her.
Yes, Sir!
Demon! Where do you think you're going?
Safe travels, customer.
Buy some buns! Delicious buns!
Demon! Where do you think you're going?
Murder! The monk has murdered someone!
Let's see where you can run to!
Monk, why are you so vicious?
That's right. What grudges does she has with you that you want to kill her?
Everyone, I'm catching a demon. Please move aside an don't stop me.
Demon? What demon?
Even if we can't recognize a demon, we can recognize a human.
This monk must have gone mad.
[ Lin'an Prison ]
You may go, Physician Xu.
Sorry for the trouble.
- Han Wen. - Older Sister.
That's enough. He's out. Why are you still crying?
- Are you all right? - I'm fine.
All right. You've been acquitted. And we've discovered the real killer.
Han Wen. Let's get home quickly and clean up. Wash with some pomelo leaves.
I never thought that I would be acquitted of the crime.
This is all thanks to Prince Mu. He came to Lin'an City out of the blue just to see you.
Otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten the magistrate to re-investigate the case.
Prince Mu?
Oh, right. Prince Mu is out there waiting for you. Let's go. Come.
Come, Han Wen. Take it slow.
Your Highness.
I thank Prince Mu for saving my life.
It's nothing. It's good that you're fine.
Did you have a hard time in prison?
Look at you. You've lost some weight.
Han Wen. Where do you feel unwell?
It's nothing. Perhaps I caught a cold in prison. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness.
Yes, Han Wen is feeling weak. I'll take him home soon.
Weak? Could you have-
Your Highness. We have to be on our way.
You forget. We still have to go to Jiujiang to investigate the water transportation.
Then I'll be leaving now.
Han Wen, remember to take your medicine on time.
If you body can't keep up, you mustn't endure it!
- Also- - Your Highness, Han Wen's health is weak.
You have many things to attend to. We'll be heading home first.
I thank you, Your Highness.
I take my leave.
Let's go.
Older Sister, you almost exposed yourself.
Xu Xian is very smart and can see through people. What if he finds out? There will be trouble.
Luckily, you reminded me.
We did so many things for him. He doesn't know that you helped him.
It's fine as long as he's safe and sound.
[ Jishi Hall ]
Yinxiang, get the hairpin for me. I'm going to visit Brother Han Wen.
Monk?
You...what are you trying to do?
Yinxiang. Don't come near me.
Yinxiang, quick.
There's a vixen demon hidden here. It's urgent. Please let me impose.
Previously, it was a centipede spirit. It's now a vixen spirit.
You even barged into someone's home.
Are you planning to commit misconduct because you saw the beauty of my Young Mistress?
Amitabha.
Ah Fu, Ah Gui.
Stay here and watch him. If he dares to take a step inside,
get someone to arrest him.
Yes, Young Mistress.
Let's go.
Benefactor.
Father doesn't even want to give the keys to the jewelry box to me. He's afraid that I would come here to search for it.
This hairpin is Madam's dowry.
To add further, Hawksbill turtle can ward off evil and it's expensive too.
The workmanship is great too. It's really priceless.
Old Master wants to keep it as a family heirloom.
The family heirloom will be mine sooner or later.
It was distinctly here.
Old Master feared you would use it to save someone's life and must have pawned it.
Go and check there.
Young Mistress, I found it.
He hid in his pillow?
He didn't even complain that it's uncomfortable. My father is very petty.
That bald donkey should have left.
Want to fight with me? You are still inexperienced.
That rotten monk set up a net.
Fine. If you are heartless, don't blame me for being unrighteous.
Who are you? How did you come in?
Ignore her. Let's go.
Yinxiang?
You can't go in! Come back!
Release me.
Evil creature, release her!
Rotten monk. These people's lives are in your hands.
You forced me to slaughter them.
Spare her life and I will let you go.
A monk is really very compassionate.
Fine, eliminate the spell first and I will release her.
Consider yourself as being tactful.
Ruyi!
I'll catch your tail and see where else you can run to!
Father?
Father!
Sister.
Sister, are you alright?
I saw a lot of commotion here and came right away.
This is...
This is the Buddhist Wisdom Mirror.
It can break through any cover ups.
Wherever it shines, demons cannot escape.
But this kind of weapon exhausts much energy,
one cannot sustain without a high level of cultivation.
Fa Hai has already exposed this Buddhist Wisdom Mirror. It means that vixen is very vicious.
That fox demon has only cultivated for a few hundred years, it doesn't make sense that Fa Hai can't control her.
The fox demon specializes in shape shifting.
She can influence people's mind, and she is vicious.
Right now it's broad daylight.
If she transforms into a mortal and hides among the civilians,
Fa Hai would be concerned about hurting other people.
Xiao Qing, let's go help him.
I knew that Fa Hai isn't that good.
I have to come out at this critical time.
Sister, if I wasn't considering for your sake...
Sister!
The Nine-tailed Fox's shape-shifting way can only be seen through by someone with a thousand-year cultivation.
Fa Hai is powerful, but he is a mortal.
If not, he wouldn't have used the Buddhist Wisdom Mirror as aide.
Then what should we do?
Lead the people away from the street.
As long as there's no one on the street,
it won't be easy for the Nine-tailed Fox to hide.
But how do we move the people?
I have an idea.
This is strange.
Where did it go?
I think I saw a ghost.
What are you looking for?
Oh right.
Where is my sword?
Your sword?
Didn't the Perfect confiscate it?
What? The Perfect took away the blade, not the sword.
I'm talking about the sword given to me by that monk from Jin Shan Temple.
That sword?
Didn't you say it's not good and threw it away into the stack of firewood?
- Where? - Firewood stack.
My brain... Yes, yes, yes, the firewood stack.
Tell you what, I found it.
I've patrolled the streets for so many years, it feels uncomfortable when I don't have anything hanging by my side.
It doesn't matter if it's not good, at least it'll help me feel brave.
You are going on patrol?
Haven't you already been...
I don't have time to talk with you. My buddies are waiting for me.
Save me some food.
- Go slowly. - I know.
So that's what happened.
You are so smart.
Then I'll take care of the rest.
What's going on?
I remember this alleyway runs into an intersection after a hundred steps.
But I still haven't seen it after walking this long?
That's right. I turn right around this broken brick.
Sister, what do we do? The trick didn't stop him.
He is carrying the Demon Slaying Sword. With Fa Hai around, he should be alright.
Why turning around? And there are less and less people in the street.
There's insufficient spiritual strength to support the Wisdom Mirror.
I must have run into a ghost.
- The road is... - Big Brother! Big Brother!
It's here!
- Big Brother. - My buddies.
Big Brother.
Let me tell you. Even though I'm dismissed, but the case needs to be investigated.
This young brother looks unfamiliar.
Are you new?
Right. Who are you?
Who is that? Never seen him.
Be careful, Benefactor.
This is...
an old Gu Clan Fox Demon
which has transformed into a beautiful woman.
It took me several hundred years to have cultivated this look.
If you kill me, wouldn't it be a waste?
Fox Demon, do not fool people again. You've killed so many people.
This is just evil hiding under a beautiful skin.
Take it down.
Buddha is supposed to be merciful to all living things.
Why won't you let go of me?
Do you think the clan of Nine-tailed Foxes do not deserved pity?
All lives have hearts. You have slaughtered the innocents and turned into evil.
You do not have remorse over countless killings.
I will annihilate you today.
Stinky monk!
Since you won't let me off,
I will let everyone here
die with me!
