[Eagles And Youngster]
[Episode 17]
In such a turbulent world,
we are bullied by others.
I'd rather be a bandit,
than get bullied by others.
We will never do evil things that hurt civilians.
We'll only enforce justice and rob the rich to feed the poor.
If you agree, you'll be the second-in-command.
Don't waste time.
Go back to get prepared.
When my buddies from the hill come down,
let's work together and destroy the kiln.
And the money, food, and clothes we get will all be yours as a welcome gift.
Older Brother, absolutely not.
Brother Ma.
About being a bandit,
let's talk about it later.
But you absolutely can't destroy this kiln.
Although Lord Ji is the landlord,
he is not cruel.
He treats the servants for his family well.
All these years, he has supported me.
Helped me a lot.
A man should be grateful.
I can't betray him.
Okay. Let's forget it.
Senior Brother, you're kindhearted. Really a good man.
I won't destroy the kiln.
Thank you, Older Brother.
I won't destroy the kiln,
but you have to join me.
Or others will laugh at me.
- Older Brother. - Enough. Just make a choice.
My Lord, I'm really grateful that you've helped me a lot for years.
Today, I've got to leave here.
We'll meet again if it's destined.
But don't worry,
Bandit Chi won't touch your Ji's house anymore.
Not only that,
he also promised that anyone who dares to hurt your family,
will be his enemy, too.
He'll protect Ji's Kiln.
Buddies, cheers!
Cheers!
Buddies.
As of today, my senior brother will be the backbone of our stockade.
Such a happy day.
Let's enjoy drinking wine and eating meat.
Come on. A toast to my senior brother.
Cheers!
So Ma Dianchen was a hero?
But later, Chi Heizi's mistress, Red April,
and Zhan Donggang framed him and put him in prison.
His head was cut off and displayed in public.
Then, Ma Dianchen became the bandit leader.
The first thing he did was to avenge him.
We saw that in the shadow play, didn't we?
Yes. Yes.
Then why was Ma Dianchen put into prison and then went missing?
Someone framed him, too, so he was put in prison.
It's said it had something to do with a rich man surnamed Xu.
As for why he went missing...
That's the reason why I came here.
You also don't know?
Right.
Fine. Get some rest after drinking the soup.
We've got to go find Mr. Lu tomorrow.
My soup!
You wasted it.
Wait. Look at this gap.
The water flows so fast.
Is there a secret room?
Who are you?
Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?
Answer me once I ask you.
This afternoon, did you hear what I said on the mountain?
Those three brats. Do you know them?
- Who? - Don't play dumb!
No, I'll say it. I'll tell you.
Yes, I know them.
They are looking for me.
One of them calls me Uncle.
They also came here for the Gold Kingdom?
No, not that. No.
They're here looking for me.
I ran away from the hospital, so they're worried about me.
They don't know anything.
They know nothing.
Brother Baoqing, what are we looking for?
Switch for the secret room.
Pay attention to the sound of the tile.
Is there really a secret room?
I've tested it by using the water.
Water here flows
differently than from other places. So it must be here.
I found it.
Why are you standing there? Come help me.
Luckily, I reacted quickly
or you would have become a hedgehog.
I wouldn't.
Why are you so ungrateful?!
It should be a defensive trap for the bandits' stockade.
Be careful. There should be many traps like this one.
The switch should be in this room.
Let's look for it.
Come here.
This side is significantly more worn than that side.
I'll try it.
Have a safe trip home. Goodbye.
We'll see you again.
Goodbye.
I don't know how they will live their lives after.
Captain, what are you thinking about?
Do you remember that grandmother said that someone will send them money?
Yes. Then what?
When you were playing with Erhu,
I asked her for more details.
Grandma said that someone sends them money now and then
and just shoves the money through the door slot.
No exact amount.
Then, that is really a kind person.
I'm afraid it's not that simple.
Sends money irregularly, and doing it secretly?
Don't you think it's too much?
You're right.
Then, who could it be?
There is another problem.
What the hell happened to Erhu in the stockade?
And what did he see?
I'm an atheist.
But I believe that someone is being deliberately mystifying.
Let's go.
[Chen Liang] [Chen Sone's memorial tablet]
Why are there so many memorial tablets?
Why are you two afraid of everything?
We're not afraid.
But it appeared so suddenly,
I wasn't prepared for it.
Yes. Yes.
[Xu Zhaoxian]
Seems they all died together.
How do you know that?
Look. The materials and the condition of these tablets are nearly the same.
Is it possible that there was a snowstorm or an earthquake?
Impossible.
Look. This room is preserved perfectly.
No sign of any disasters.
[Song Youwen] [Zhang Erxi]
Who are these men on the tablets?
Do you remember the shadow-player's words?
All the men in the stockade went missing overnight.
So these men were those bandits?
[Boss Ma Dianchen's memorial tablet]
Here is Ma Dianchen's tablet.
[Boss Ma Dianchen's memorial tablet]
We're really going to stay here?
I'm sleepy. Going to get some sleep.
Brother Baoqing, you're really to sleep in here?
What's meant to be will be. Just go to sleep.
Let's go. I'll protect you two.
Hurry.
The money I lost, I'll win it back sooner or later.
Mr. Shan, you made a fortune recently. Right?
I've lost it all. Lost it all.
Don't hit me.
Mr. Feng. Mr. Feng, why do you have time to come to Luyun?
To relax... For relaxing yourself?
Yes. I came to talk to you about our old days.
That's nice.
Brother, what do you want to eat?
Brother! Brother. Brother.
We can talk, we can talk.
Yeah, let's talk.
The jar you sold to my brother really brought him great trouble.
His comrades knew that he got scammed.
They all laughed at him behind his back.
My older brother is very mad.
No. You've got me wrong.
That's a real treasure.
A real treasure?
My older brother asked an expert to check it out.
It's just a normal jar!
So you're really good at cheating others.
Even cheated my brother.
Let me cut your tongue out
and see what it looks like.
Brother, it's all my fault!
Don't kill me, Older Brother!
Older Brother...
Older Brother.
I'm giving you three days.
Prepare ¥2,000.
¥2,000?
But I only sold it for ¥500.
No more nonsense!
Three days from now, ¥2,000.
Give me the money or get killed by me.
Let's go.
I'm in deep trouble.
Where will I get ¥2000?!
No other choice.
Sis! Wake up!
There's... a ghost! Ghost!
Where? Where?
What happened?
I just saw it floating around over there.
Why did it disappear?
- Zhang Baoqing! - B-Be-Behind you!
Where is it?
It can only be a person if it's true.
I don't believe it's a ghost.
Snuck in while we were sleeping?
Impossible.
Sis, do you think it's Mr. Ma coming to find a fall guy?
Shut up!
I don't believe it's a ghost!
Brother Baoqing! I-I-I can't do it.
Er Bizi!
- Where is he?! - Er Bizi!
Show up now!
Someone is up there!
Want to run away?!
- Are you okay? - I'm okay.
He ran away.
Don't worry. I'll get him!
Before going to sleep, I put red paint everywhere.
Look. He stepped in it.
Stay here. Take good care of him.
Be careful, you two.
When did I get this?
Here is a shoe!
Seems a man slid down there.
Is that a coincidence?
You're suspecting that he did it on purpose just for us?
There is a light. Let's check it.
Shut up!
Be quiet!
Be quiet.
Be quiet or I'll kill you!
Keep quiet or I'll kill you.
We've knocked for a while, is nobody at home?
Stay there. Don't move!
Who are you?
It's you.
Do you know him?
You are...the young guy in the woods this afternoon, right?
Come in.
Have a seat.
Why did you look so nervous just now?
I live in the woods by myself.
I have to be vigilant.
What are you looking at?
Nothing.
My house is made of cement.
I never saw such materials as these; just curious.
Come. Have some water.
Thank you.
Well, what made you come to Luyun Town?
Just traveling.
To such a place? Seriously?
Visiting a haunted house.
You mean...
Ma Dianchen's stockade?
You're really bold.
Just a hobby.
Thank you.
Well, sir. Did anyone else come here before we came?
No... No.
Mouse.
It's common in the mountains.
We have many snakes, mice, and insects.
You came into the mountains so late at night.
Did anything happen to you?
Nothing, sir.
Speaking of that... Have you ever gone to the stockade
and seen a ghost?
That place. Since Erhu's accident,
no one goes there, not even in the daytime.
I'm old now.
I don't dare go there.
Well, sir. Please rest yourself. We've got to go.
What are you going to do so late at night?
- Catch the ghost. - Catch the ghost?
Yes. See you, sir.
Catch... Catch the ghost?
Excuse us.
Be careful at night.
- Okay. - Okay.
I've checked around.
No black robe like that man in black.
No red paint traces either.
Everything is normal.
But where did that man go?
The forest is so big.
Let's go check around again.
We can just go back first if we don't find anything.
It's not safe to just leave those two there alone.
Let's go then.
You dare to make a sound!
You want to die?!
Brother, please don't kill me.
Don't kill you?
You want to kill me and my brother, right?!
Brother?
Captain, as you said,
the man who sent the money must have had something to do with Erhu's accident.
Yes.
Sending money means he feels guilty.
As long as we find this man,
then maybe we'll get to know Ma Dianchen's secret in the stockade
and even the secret of the Gold Kingdom.
Now, where are we going?
Going to the director
to ask for the backgrounds of the villagers
to see if there is some relevant information then go into the mountains.
Okay.
I'm sorry. Sorry.
Thank you.
Your hat.
Thank you. Thank you.
You are the one who performed the shadow play.
And you are... the girl I met yesterday?
You...
What's wrong with your face?
Your dishes.
- Thank you. - Thanks, Mr. Niu.
- Come. Eat more. - Can we order? - Coming.
Thank you.
What happened to your face?
To be honest, my younger sister got into a car accident days ago.
I need a large sum for the treatment fee.
But I can't make enough money as a performer.
So I went to borrow some money.
I borrowed it from many people,
but I couldn't return it. So the creditor got mad.
Then...
Don't worry. Have some water first.
Thank you.
How much money did you borrow?
¥3,000.
That much?!
Maybe I can't return it in this life.
Today, I meant to go to the pawnshop
and see if I can sell an ancestral treasure.
But the boss forced the price down.
It's very hard for me.
An antique?
Sort of.
Left by my grandpa.
May I see it?
It's...
It's said that
it belonged to the Gold Kingdom.
At least, it's a few hundred years old.
Gold Kingdom?
How did you get it?
Passed on by my ancestors.
How much do you want?
¥800.
It also has gold embedded in it.
Not very expensive though.
You know this, too!
A good imitation.
You... What do you mean?
I mean... If I didn't know you were a liar,
I would have believed it.
I... I don't understand what you're saying.
Still acting?
Aren't you afraid that you will get a cataract?
Captain!
It's not a cataract.
I'm really blind.
You sure?
Then, you've been blind since childhood?
Are you insane!
You can see!
I...
If he were blind,
then no one in Luyun Town can see.
You two. He's Shan, a well-known swindler.
I don't know what trouble he has made this time,
so he had to come back.
What about his younger sister who got into a car accident?
Younger sister?
It's only him alone in his family.
Always telling lies.
If you can't bear him,
as long as my tables and chairs don't get damaged,
just go ahead and hit him.
Mr. Niu, why are you so unkind?!
Unkind? Me?
Then you're kind?
Brother, I'm kidding you.
Captain, when did you find out?
I began to suspect the first time I saw him.
Why?
You told us you were blind,
but you don't have a probing cane.
That's strange.
Just now when I held you,
I checked your hand, finger fleshiness, and palm.
Very smooth.
Normally, the blind will feel things with their hands.
So, they should have wounds and calluses on their hands.
But what confirmed it,
is this fake waist tag.
You're smart and very bold,
but kind of unlucky.
I'm a geologist.
This is gold plated; it's worthless.
Hey. Do you want me to call the police?
Mr. Niu, don't mess things up. Okay?
I'm sorry.
I'm imprudent and unlucky. I apologize.
Tell me. How do you know about the Gold Kingdom?
Yes. Yes. Do you want to find the Gold Kingdom?
I'll tell you its location.
Just let me go, okay?
Don't believe him!
I mean it. My grandpa once went there.
Still lying?
Look at the tag.
I also painted many eyes on it.
That's the totem of the Gold Kingdom! Is it not?
Just tell me the truth.
How do you know about the Gold Kingdom?
Buddies! Come out!
Go after him!
[Yunjin Restaurant]
Captain, what should we do now?
You... You're Mr. Feng's man, right?
Tell me...
those things about the Gold Kingdom,
are they true?
Let go... Let go.
Won't tell me?
Your last chance.
Those things about the Gold Kingdom,
are they true?
Captain, he is over there.
What are you doing?!
I'm going to call the police.
Are you okay?
Luckily, Captain had me look for you
or you would be dead.
Thank you.
Help him up first.
Get up first. Come.
Come. Have some water first.
It's dust. It's okay.
I'm not thirsty, thank you.
Me either.
That man who hurt you just now.
Do you know him?
Maybe... he is a creditor.
What trouble did you make again?
Earning a living in this society,
it's normal to be bullied sometimes.
No big deal.
You cheated others again, right?
Don't be so blunt, okay?
But... that man is so odd.
He didn't ask me for money.
But he wanted to know the secret about the Gold Kingdom.
I don't think he is Mr. Feng's man.
He asked you about the Gold Kingdom?
Don't you want to know it, too?
Since... you helped me,
I can tell you. Actually, the secret about the Gold Kingdom...
Ma Dianchen told it to me.
Ma Dianchen?
Isn't he dead?
Telling lies again.
When have you ever told the truth?
I've lied too much.
Sometimes I can't even tell.
That's not my fault.
It's my professional quality.
Before cheating others, you must believe it yourself first.
But I can swear.
The thing about the Gold Kingdom,
I'm telling the truth.
If you hadn't helped me,
I wouldn't have told you that.
If I tell you,
you have to pay me.
You always tell lies.
How can we believe you?
Wait for a while.
This is Ma Dianchen. We saw it.
That's right.
And who is this one?
His hands and feet are turned backward.
He is Tu Toutuo.
Never seen him.
Of course.
In Luyun town, except me,
no one knows him.
Then, does he have anything to do with Ma Dianchen and the Gold Kingdom?
It all starts with Ma Dianchen
being caught and put into prison.
Brother, he is the most famous bandit leader nearby.
Ma Dianchen. I only saw him once from a distance.
When he was caught,
it's said the constabulary were very happy.
All of them waited for their rewards.
Does he have support from the superiors?
He is in prison now,
but has rich meals every day.
We even don't have porridge.
You don't know that.
If they don't let him enjoy the days there,
when they show him to the public before executing him,
the civilians won't believe he is a bandit leader
if they see a skinny man.
Listen. The rich meals mean he is going to die.
You want to eat?
You want to die?
Dare to hit me!
I'm going to show you what I can do!
Dare to hit me?!
Hit me?!
My hand! It hurts! It hurts!
Eat it.
There is no poison. Don't worry. Just eat.
Eat.
How long have you not eaten?
Three... Three days.
What's wrong with your voice?
Charcoal, charcoal...
Someone put charcoal down your throat?
You can't hear as well?
Then, how could you know what I'm saying?
You know how to read lips.
You were born... like this?
We are both unlucky.
Don't worry. As long as I'm in this prison with you,
no one will dare to bully you.
That bizarre person was Tu Toutuo?
Yes.
In fact, he has no name or surname.
There is a folktale in northeastern China
that says that a weasel became a man.
That is Tu Toutuo.
It's said that when he was born,
he had a malformed face and reversed feet.
His parents found they'd gotten a freak,
so they didn't want to keep him to avoid trouble.
They couldn't bear to drown him in the water tank.
So, they threw him in the graveyard at midnight.
He was lucky and wasn't eaten by a wild dog.
But an elderly grave robber picked him up.
The robber took him home and took him as a disciple.
He's so pitiful.
Yes.
Then one day a local tyrant tricked him
and forced him to eat hot charcoal.
He also poked inside his ears, so he lost his hearing.
Then he chained him up to show others.
Luckily, his master came in time
or he would have been dead.
How could such a thing happen?!
Those were turbulent times
and that's northeast China.
His master advised him to forget all that
and make a recovery.
But how could he forget that?
At midnight, he snuck into that tyrant's house
and deeply bit his neck!
He also choked all his family to death.
Then he ran away with blood all over his face.
But soon, he was caught
and was to be executed by gunfire in the Fall.
When he met Ma Dianchen,
he only had one month left.
How do you know that?
My grandpa was Tu Toutuo's master.
What?!
Really?
Or how else could I know so much about the relic?
If your grandpa knew that you were using knowledge of the relic to do this,
he would be very angry with you.
You said just now, that
your grandpa was a grave robber.
Then, was Tu Toutuo also in the business?
That's right.
I knew it.
What do you mean?
How did Ma Dianchen get back to his stockade?
Not the legend that he resurrected.
It was Tu Toutuo
who helped him escape from the prison.
You're smart.
That day before Ma Dianchen's execution...
