"Snow Tower, Episode 15"
Thank you for saving me, Mister Lei.
And thanks to people in the Lei's for taking care of me.
Xiao Qing, where will you go in the middle of the night?
Father!
How about this?
Mister Gao has asked me...to take care of Lady Xiao Qing.
Let me take Xiao Qing, find her a place to stay,
and see what should we do next.
I dare not trouble you, Mister Xiao.
It's fine. Mister Gao paid me a lot.
Don't worry about it, Lady Xiao Qing.
Thank you then, Mister Xiao.
Xiao Qing, are you really leaving Lei Residence?
Brother!
Thank you for saving me in time.
But I didn't expect...Lei Zhen Tian to be so alert.
Since he has suspected you,
you shouldn't risk staying in Lei Residence anymore.
Leaving overnight...is also making a clean break with Lei family.
By the way, what did you find in the study?
I didn't find...the secret method to gunpowder making today,
but I found that Lei family has a Dragon Heart Sutra.
The martial art in there is incredible.
Your words have cleared my doubt.
Lei family or the Thunderbolt Hall, is known for its firecrackers.
But the generations before...was well-known in the pugilistic world...
for their exclusive martial art.
This might be the reason why...Lei family does gunpowder business for a living.
For your information, one has to...cut all his meridians to master that martial art.
But very few succeeded.
If one fails to master it, he'll be paralyzed.
This is why the later generation of Lei family...
became less skillful in fighting.
Indeed. No matter how incredible a martial art is,
it is no match for gunpowder.
With the secret method of making gunpowder,
they didn't have to take risks in training.
Until Lei Zhen Tian's time,
they colluded with Moon Sect...to increase the power of gunpowder.
Gunpowder business has become his means to make money.
When I was talking with Lei Chu Yun,
I learned that Lei Zhen Tian once...traveled around Nanjiang.
Which he then realized niter was produced around there.
Then, he teamed up with Moon Sect...to get niter by exchanging gunpowder.
That's right.
Lei family and Moon Sect...are connected only by their own benefits.
But gunpowder business can't be done openly,
so they are also keeping each other under control.
It's just that...Lei Zhen Tian is too ambitious.
He was not satisfied by his dealing with Moon Sect.
Then after the battle at Sand Valley 3 years ago,
through Xie Li Zhou, he established relationship with the Imperial Court.
And during the battle in Yongzhou 1 year ago, he gained a foothold in the Imperial Court.
Doing business with the Imperial Court,
yet still hankers for money from the enemy.
Aren't they afraid that they'll die...
because of this business someday?
The gunpowder business...may cause the death of the seller...
if the enemy nation becomes aware.
That's why the Imperial Court has been hiding it.
Because of this, and his own alertness,
Lei Zhen Tian is certain that he won't be caught.
I will not condone such a disloyal man.
Snow Tower intervenes in this...
in order to...investigate Moon Sect.
But most importantly, to maintain the order of the pugilistic world,
and the safety of the Imperial Court and the society.
In order to deceive Lei family,
you cut off...all the callouses caused by over a decade of sword-training.
Fingers reflect the heart.
You scraped your skin and callous.
Does it hurt?
Compared to the battle at Sand Valley,
this pain is nothing.
Lei Zhen Tian has done many bad things,
but Lei Chu Yun's love for you is true.
Do you feel sorry for him?
Why would I?
He'll soon realize that...no one in the world is trustworthy.
You mean, this is what you believed...for the past 3 years?
Is there no one..you would trust other than...your seniors and master?
The drawn sword drew a red painting.
Blood is spilling, as the murderous one wields.
Once famous in the world, but clueless about love and hate.
She's too naive, but human heart is treacherous.
Hate myself for being a mute.
How do I tell her...
to let down her guard?
As happiness awaits her.
Fate is like entwining branches.
Slipping through my fingers like the sand.
Could I really be cursed?
Those stories about me.
That I'm cruel and lonely.
But I refuse to give up our love.
All the hearts that owned me.
They have all become demons.
It's torture, she withers before she blooms.
Why did he...leave behind a lantern for me?
Where did he go?
He remembers I said that...
when my sight recovers,
I'll watch shadow puppetry.
Who are you exactly?
How do I tell her...
to let down her guard?
As happiness awaits her.
Fate is like entwining branches.
Slipping through my fingers like the sand.
Could I really be cursed?
There is.
There's somebody that I trust. That I'm cruel and lonely.
But I refuse to give up our love.
I wonder if...there's also someone you trust in your heart. They have all become demons.
It's torture, she withers before she blooms.
This will be the last medicine.
Also, conduct acupuncture and cover her eyes for 3 days.
And the poison in Lady Jing's body...will be removed entirely.
All right.
Those stories about me.
That I'm cruel and lonely.
But I refuse to give up our love.
All the hearts that owned me.
They have all become demons.
It's torture, she withers before she blooms.
When my sight recovers,
I will...watch shadow puppetry.
It's torture, she withers before she blooms.
There is.
And one day, I'll make her believe that...
the person she trusts will not disappoint.
"Lei Residence"
Sir.
I've searched through the house,
and questioned all the servants.
But nothing is suspicious.
I got it.
Go and arrange this.
Don't let any outsiders...enter or leave these few days.
Yes.
The coldness in her body is too strong,
causing her days of high fever.
The witch doctor was here to check,
but the medicine didn't work.
Her illness has deteriorated instead.
The witch doctor also said,
if this goes on, she needs to stay in Vermilion Palace...
for some time to recuperate.
That's why...I'm here to ask you to decide, Mistress.
Shi Shui.
Left Guardian. There's still some distance from where we're supposed to meet.
Send a message.
Tell the receiver to collect from here.
Yes.
Young Mistress, this area is ideal for defense.
We'll make the deal here.
I'll see who's daring enough to steal the niter.
Be alert. Protect the Young Mistress.
Yes.
The niter is 5 miles away.
Notify the person in charge to come collect.
Be careful.
We cannot fail in fulfilling the tasks of Snow Tower.
This time, Yi Qing even sent the 7 killers of Chuihua House.
Do we still need to fear them?
Not to mention, who in the pugilistic world dares to go against Snow Tower? Move forward!
Yes!
Father, you asked for us?
Father, did something happen?
This is our secret method to making gunpowder
I'm giving one to both of you.
Remember Keep it properly.
Never let it fall into others' hands.
Father, what happened?
Chu Yun, if the delivery of the niter goes wrong again,
both of you must leave Jiangnan immediately...with everybody in Lei family.
I've arranged everything properly for you both.
You'll be assisted when you're out of the city.
I've discreetly transferred our fortune.
You may get the cash...with this seal at any banks.
From now on, you must take good care of each other.
As long as we have the method, Lei family will rise again.
Father, isn't Snow Tower...delivering the niter?
How could things go wrong? Why are you so worried?
That's right, father. If something does happen, we can discuss it with them.
Since Snow Tower has accepted the task,
they'll not fail.
The niter is escorted by Snow Tower,
but... these few days,
I'm getting more anxious.
I feel like...someone has been keeping an eye on us.
Anyhow, I'm preparing for the worst.
Hopefully, I'm just over thinking.
If your concerns come true,
then let Chu Yu take the others and leave.
As the eldest son, I should fight alongside you...
and protect Lei family.
Chu Yun, I'm happy to hear you say this.
But it is different this time.
The niter concerns our country.
The Imperial Court takes it seriously.
Our gunpowder business with the Imperial Court...
has always been confidential.
Mister Xie had always visited...our house quietly to keep things secret.
But the Imperial Court is facing emergency.
If we fail this time, it'll lead to disaster.
And the first to suffer...
will be the Lei family.
If that day comes, I'll do my best...to keep our home safe.ff
Checked. The quantity is correct.
Set off at once.
Yes.
Stay there.
No matter what happens,
make sure the niter is delivered safely.
Yes.
I've met you before.
Leave!
Let's go.
Don't move!
Or your Left Guardian dies!
Who are you?
How do you know who we are?
What has Moon Sect been planning these few years?
Tell me.
Speak!
Tell me!
It's him?
Sand Valley?
Young Mistress, Snow Tower must be involved.
Looks like the robbery of the niter...was planned by them.
It seems like even God is helping me.
What do you mean, Young Mistress?
Beat them at their own game.
You?
I'll avenge my Master and Qing Lan!
Hurry. Go down the cliff and look for Young Mistress.
- Yes! - Hurry!
Mister Gao is back.
Did all the Moon followers die?
I only injured their Young Mistress.
Then...
What about the other disciples?
They're all dead.
Luckily...
Luckily our plan was impeccable.
The niter was safe because we split up.
Our mission is not just delivering the niter.
Yi Qing wanted to teach them a lesson by killing them.
Therefore, we've expected people to die.
Why are you injured?
It doesn't matter. We must be on our way.
We need to deliver the niter in time.
Get ready to go!
Yes.
Let's go!
Sir.
Is everything going well with Chu Yu?
Yes.
Don't worry, sir.
Good.
Then go arrange for our trip today.
Yes.
Hold on.
I'm going to deliver niter today.
If I don't return by midnight,
then, leave Jiangnan with the young masters and the others.
Go ahead.
Tower Master Xiao, I wonder...how is it going...
with the task I entrusted you with?
Have a look, Master Lei.
Snow Tower does keep its word...and is invincible.
My niter had been robbed during the recent deliveries.
Only Snow Tower managed to deliver it on time.
Tower Master Xiao, you're indeed a man of your word.
I can't thank you enough.
Open the boxes.
Yes.
Tower Master Xiao, what are you doing?
I told my men...to make some gunpowder...
by strictly following the method you gave.
So, the gunpowder should be...the same as the one you make.
Since you and your eldest son are here today,
I wonder...if you're interested in...testing the strength of the gunpowder with me?
Fine. Do you think we'd give you a fake method?
Tower Master Xiao. It's already very late at night.
If it is too loud, I'm afraid that...
Don't worry about that.
This is a remote place. No one will be affected.
fLight it up.
Master Lei, how's the strength of this batch of gunpowder...
compared to those used during the explosion at Sand Valley?
Tower Master,
this gunpowder...is not even half as strong as those used at Sand Valley.
Xiao Qing?
Can't you see it now?
She's the daughter of Blood Demon, Shu Jing Rong.
Shu Jing Rong?
You've seen for yourselves that...the gunpowder is far from powerful.
Since the secret method you gave is fake,
let's just call off the deal.
I'll not hand the niter to you.
Stop the fight!
Mister Xie.
Are you trying to rebel?
Master Lei colluded with the enemy...and committed treason.
He must be executed.
I'm here to capture the criminal...
and bring him to justice.
-Somebody! -Yes.
Bring Lei Zhen Tian and his eldest son back to...
Lei Residence and guard them carefully!
Mister Xie. Yes.
Mister Xie. Treason?
Do you have proof?
Exactly. How can you fabricate stories...and simply accuse us?
Although my father deceived Snow Tower with a false method, it's only a crime of deception.
How is this treason?
This note is the evidence.
Have you forgotten, Mister Lei?
In order to bid the jade ball...for Xiao Qing,
you stole the foreign notes Master Lei was hiding.
The foreign banknote...is the best evidence.
Please check clearly, Mister Xie.
If this is a foreign banknote,
how do you prove that...it's from Lei Residence?
Please don't believe...this devil woman and Snow Tower's one-sided story.
Master Lei is right.
Mister Xie, please go to Lei Residence...and look into it.
The evidence...is in there.
Okay. Fine.
I didn't do anything wrong.
I'll let the government check.
Then, the name of Lei family can be cleared.
"Lei Residence"
So, where is the evidence...you mentioned, Young Master Xiao?
Tower Master.
Mister Xie, this way please.
Mister Xie, please.
We'll be waiting outside.
Yes, sir.
Are you trying to destroy the evidence for Lei family?
Who's that?
Bing Yu?
Or perhaps, you're trying to destroy evidence relating you to their gunpowder?
What do you mean?
I've checked all the account books.
Ten accounts are related to Xie Family.
You've received many bribes from Lei family.
Bing Yu, these are just records on the business...
between the government and Lei family.
Then, do you know that the account books have...
much evidence of Lei family conspiring with the enemy?
If you don't believe me,
look at the foreign banknotes.
Lei Zhen Tian.
This is a serious problem.
Do you think the Emperor won't investigate this?
If you cover it up, don't you know what the punishment will be?
The whole Xie Family...may have to die because of your negligence.
How would I know...Lei Zhen Tian would collude with the enemy?
I only...
I only took a small amount...from him.
My daughter, you know the situation I'm facing now.
I have no turning back.
I'm done for, no matter what.
How about this?
Go ask Young Master Xiao...for mercy.
Ask him to pretend he never learned about this.
Then, everyone in Xie Family may be saved.
Snow Tower will not sit by and watch.
The moment you closed the casket back then,
did you care about your daughter's life?
Now you're deep in trouble,
yet you still think reputation is above all?
I'm well aware...
that after all these years, you still haven't forgiven me.
But have you thought about this, Bing Yu?
You can't let your mother die because of this!
It's been 3 years.
In these 3 years, your mother couldn't eat nor sleep!
She's been bedridden...for over 3 months already!
Can you watch her suffer again?
If there's a way,
will you still choose your reputation...over your family's lives?
My dear daughter, there is still hope after all.
Rest assured, I'll do whatever you say.
I'll listen to you.
Admit your crime to the Emperor.
Master Lei's illegal gunpowder business...
and crime of treason have been proven.
If you don't want to be implicated,
your only way is to...tell the whole truth.
Tell the truth?
Yes.
If you will, you may hand Lei family's method of making gunpowder to the Emperor...
and atone for your crimes.
But if...
There's no if.
When you accepted Lei family's bribes,
you should know this day will come.
Sure.
My daughter. I'm old.
Do you want to...
hate me forever?
I regret it!
Tower Master Xiao.
From today onwards,
all the shops and properties...
belonging to Lei family...
will be confiscated by the government.
No one in Lei family may move anything...without permission.
The daughter of Blood Demon is indeed merciless.
However, Blood Rose is a cursed sword.
One day, everything will come back to you!
That's funny, Master Lei.
You colluded with the enemy nation...and endangered our country with gunpowder,
so you should be the one suffering the consequences.
Why would Lady Jing suffer?
