I've promised you.
Huamei!
Huamei Huamei!
Wake up!
Huamei
Hu
Where did these small worms come from?
Fatty!
Jump into the water with them! Now!
It's a underground gold well.
Banishes evil spirits and worms! Hurry!
Okay. Okay.
Ding! Yanzi! Uncle Yang!
Hurry, jump into the water!
Hurry!
Hurry, jump.
Hurry.
Yanzi.
Jump.

Come back!
You ruined me.
You ruined me! Qiaoshan, let go!
Otherwise we all will die here!
Listen to me, Huamei will also die!
Dad...
Hu Bayi!
Hu! Hu Bayi!
Huamei!
Back off!
Hu, look!
Daughter...
The moment Huamei opened the copper box,
Some light and harsh voices were released.
Made us all hallucinated and disorientated.
But for that shot which broke the magnetic-field interference,
perhaps we would be trapped in this place, forever.
Walking towards the rising sun,
I've figured it out and feel extremely relieved.
Depression formed in these days also gets wiped out by the warm sunlight.
Meanwhile,
the Reform Committee has dispatched a troop to search us
after they knew we were lost for two days.
When did you get lost?
What?
When did you get lost?
Dream about dragon?
I haven't.
Nor have I heard of dragons.
Get lost.
Be missing.
When?
Monkey?
I haven't seen any monkeys.
Besides,
no monkeys in the grassland.
Is there something wrong with your ears?
Soldiers?
It's soldiers.
Soldiers of the liberation army saved me.
I should thank them for that.
Yangpi
Your hearing was not so bad before.
Soldiers?
It's soldiers.
Soldiers of the liberation army saved me.
Girl
Is there something wrong with your ears?
Nope.
My ears can hear very clearly!
Okay, tell us how you guys got lost.
Can't remember that.
We walked and walked.
Then we got lost.
You're from Northeast China.
What brought you here?
I came here with my friends.
Any problem?
During the days you got lost, have you seen any trace of the horses?
No.
Anyway, wherever uncle Yang went, I followed him.
I think this girl is delusional.
Let's ask someone else.
Okay. Okay.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
Name? Gender?
Comrade, we're asking you questions.
Miss, is Huamei your name?
Is she some deaf-mute?
Or has difficulty in talking?
Don't waste time. Ask those two educated youths.
Is there anything wrong with you guys?
No.
Hearing.
Expressing.
All good?
-Yes. -Yes.
Well, tell us,
what on earth have happened?
If you want to know what on earth have happened...
Yes, you tell us.
What on earth have happened?
Spectators.
Don't get antsy.
Please allow me to tell you in detail.
Do tell us.
The fact is, we six people suffered cold wind, thirst, hunger.
When we were about to be out of resources and in despair,
Suddenly...
What?
We found a cave,
in which there were chill wind and stinky smell.
At that moment,
weird sounds came from far away.
As the sounds came closer and closer,
we found,
it's a samite-scale boa.
A samite-scale boa.
And it had only one eye.
Only one eye.
That monster had a triangular head,
as huge as a cauldron and big eyes
as red as lanterns when looked from a distance.
About 166 centimeters long. As thick as a bucket.
With scales all over its body
and its mouth wide open, crawling towards us!
Commander Hu
What should we do at such a moment?
What should we do?
Chairman Mao teaches us to wipe out all evil forces.
With socialism in our chest and act accordingly.
Dare to fight against ghosts and gods.
Never surrender to demons and monsters. That's right!
That's the moment to show our revolutionary stance.
Yes!
We heroic young warriors jumped on it bravely with torches.
And fought with that monster for several rounds!
And then?
Before the righteous revolutionary force,
that monster were defeated and locked up in the furnace.
See?
But that boa didn't give up easily.
It still fought desperately in the furnace.
And gave out poisonous yellow smoke,
which filled the small space immediately.
According to history books,
that poisonous smoke can kill a horse in a minute.
Extremely poisonous.
No one can survive if he smells it.
What should we do?
The enemy was much stronger than us.
But we heroic young warriors were fearless.
We knew clearly,
we could only use wisdom other than brute force.
At that moment...
What happened?
We found gasoline! And waterproof cloth.
Then, suddenly, we came up with a good idea.
A plan.
We started to retreat while fighting with the boa.
Kept fighting while retreating. Fighting while retreating...
And then?
Little by little, we lured it into the gasoline area.
At a right timing, set on fire...
So?
In the righteous flame,
the evil reactionary force ended up smoke and ashes.
Problem solved.
Awesome?
Awesome!
Are you...
Taking us as idiots?
What you said totally goes against common sense!
We were telling the truth.
Comrade, I'm being honest.
Next one!
Spectators, if you want to know what happened next,
please allow me to... Don't...
Don't...
Out!
-Listen to me... -There was a corpse ginseng as well...
Look, that corpse ginseng moved like this...
With the emperor Kangxi's treasured sword...
Made a cut every time I raised the sword...
We tried our best to chase the horses. Didn't expect that we got lost nearby the Cave of Eyes.
We failed to find the horses.
But got attacked by beasts instead.
So we abandoned our horses and hid among rocks.
Our comrades, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan,
Yanzi and Huamei tried their best
to treat us and look after us
when me and Uncle Yangpi were wounded and in a coma.
Finally, brought us back to life.
Under the leadership of the invincible Mao Zedong Thought,
we carried forward the spirit of disregarding hardship and death,
continued to look for the lost horses.
But we didn't find any.
So we returned to our pastoral area to report it.
The Reform Committee planned to made your pastoral area
an advanced model of improving revolution and production
and following the spirit of Dazhai in agriculture.
But, for the thing happened,
it'll be difficult.
Understand.
We'll fight off selfish motives and criticize revisionism.
Ask for instructions and report day and night.
Often implement criticism and self-criticism.
Summarize experience and lessons.
To win a greater victory.
Ding Sitian
If everyone has such awareness as yours,
it'll be easier for our work.
Personally I still have many shortcomings.
Hope the Reform Committee and leaders
to criticize and guide me more.
Look, they're back!
Dad!
Dad.
I just came back from the League.
I heard our horses escaped in panic.
What on earth happened?
Don't mention that.
Look, now I can eat an entire roasted goat.
Anything to eat?
Take these educated kids to eat something.
Dad, the meal is ready.
Good. Good. Good. Hurry.
There's a meal?
Yes.
Let's go. Let's go.
Meal. Meal.
Let's go, Yanzi.
Let's go eat.
Go.
Fatty, save some for me!
Hurry up.
Uncle...
I got something to tell you.
This time,
thank you for saving my life.
Don't say that.
We've been through life and death together.
That's no big deal.
Such great kindness shall be repaid later.
Let me show you something.
Uncle
This is...
The eyeless dragon seal.
You mentioned before, the weasel fairy has three treasures.
One of them is the dragon seal.
It looks like just an old coin.
Is it really that magical?
Back then,
when I made a living in Northeast China,
an old Shaman had slip of the tongue.
He said it's...
made of an ancient meteorite copper by the Xianbei Nationality's witch.
Has boundless power.
But it's useless to me.
You're a descendant of Mojin Xiaowei.
Maybe in future,
it can help you.
Uncle, this...
Let's go.
The eyeless dragon seal?
You also know this stuff?
Qiaoshan told me before.
Back then,
the witch used dragon fire from the deep ocean
to create this eyeless dragon seal.
That fire is different from overground ones.
Won't go out in water.
With extremely high temperature and brightness.
So, her followers
regarded this dragon seal as a token of their belief.
The Sixteen-character Geomancy Secrets of Yin and Yang
also mentioned the dragon fire.
It's an accumulation of all the whammies in the world.
It's said that one with this dragon seal
can command soldiers in the nether world.
But...
If he doesn't have enough cultivation,
he'll be ruined by it.
Yes. Yes.
That old Shaman also said so.
Unlucky ones with it will invite misfortunes.
Uncle
Huamei
Those are beliefs of the Old Fours.
Feudalistic superstitions.
In this world,
there are many things
can't be explained by the word 'superstitions'.
Thoroughgoing materialists are fearless.
Don't scare yourself.
Such a sunny day,
how come there's a bolt?
Hu Bayi
Leave aside everything else.
There's only one advice.
This stuff must be thrown away.
Right here
Throw it away.
Really?
It was not easy to pick it up.
We might as well keep it as a souvenir.
It'll only be a disaster.
The worst thing is,
it might hurt other people and yourself.
Uncle Yang
You picked it up.
You throw it away?
We should go back as well.
Northeast China?
Or Beijing?
Northeast first.
Then, Beijing.
With whom?
Fatty.
What about me?
You'll be welcomed in Beijing.
I've promised you.
Don't play dumb.
I mean,us.
A straight answer.
What answer?
Speak your mind.
I've told you.
Not in front of those outsiders.
Fatty is not some outsider.
Whoever between us is an outsider.
Not gonna say it again.
Then, say something else.
You're making it hard for me.
Eat a candy, say something sweet.
No matter how sweet it is,
you're sweeter.
Anything more?
Actually...
You may give me another one.
Take off your pants!
Isn't it inappropriate?
You're a man. Stop hemming and hawing!
In such a daytime, people will see us.
I'm even not afraid. Why should you?
I... I... I'm not afraid.
But... This is my first time.
Don't worry.
I will be tender to you.
Still no?
I'll help you, then!
No. No. No.
I got this.
Have you tied up the curtain?
Tied up so well. Even a fly can't get in.
Hurry.
Can you turn around for a minute?
Are you done?
You...
You better let me help you. Lie down.
Yanzi, cut it out.
Oh my god, so big!
Voice down. People might hear you.
Such a big wound.
Why didn't you tell me earlier?
This is Huaxiang Grass.
Hang in there.
It hurts.
The body hurts. Better than feelings.
I have no feelings any more.
Won't hurt.
You really have no feelings for Ding anymore?
Things forcibly done won't be agreeable.
I won't make her go against her will to love me.
Here is my advice.
There're millions of revolutionary youths.
Try another if you find one not suits.
Can I trust you about that?
Could you find someone better than Hu Bayi?
Me!
