[The Mystic Nine]
[Episode 17]
Why are you here again?
Is this your house? Can you let people peacefully recuperate?
Sister-in-Law, it's right that you lecture me.
I will surely come less often from now on.
I'll try not to come at all.
Walk slowly. I won't walk you out anymore.
I thought that everyone from the Mystic Nine Families were all like you,
a thousand-year-old iceberg.
Thank you for taking care of me these past days.
I just hope that you can stop going crazy.
Causing me...
Causing the people around you to worry, too.
Thanks.
Has Er Ye really been going to brothels everyday?
He just can't accept reality yet.
That still shouldn't be his excuse to escape.
Is he still a man?
All the good intentions of Yatou just got wasted.
What to do now? Are we going to let Er Ye act wildly like that?
♫ The era of surviving amidst war ♫
♫ Unable to avoid the rivalries ♫
♫ In this big world, everyone, let's worship together ♫
♫ Life and death are destined, you can't do anything about it ♫
♫ Leaving when you still haven't done anything yet ♫
♫ You're here, I'm here, let's fight to have a future ♫
♫ Get up, get up ♫
♫ Get up, get up, upsurge of burning passion ♫
♫ Adversities and prosperity have caused us to lift our head high and not be afraid ♫
♫ No matter how many conflicts there would be ♫
♫ Moving forward or retreating, won't regret it ♫
♫ In a spurt of energy, preparing to give it all in this counterattack ♫
♫ Even if I have to abandon myself ♫
♫ If I'm not the battle addict, who else? ♫
♫ Who are we? A group of people who gets stronger as they meet someone stronger ♫
♫ No matter how exhausted we are ♫
♫ Moving forward or retreating, won't regret it ♫
♫ Bullets are flying around, using our own flesh to block it ♫
♫ Even if we're about to break down ♫

[The Mystic Nine]
Come! Come in and have fun!
You all get out!
What's this?
Leave!
Er Ye, look at how you are now.
By being like this, can you still face Yatou?!
I initially thought that you were a person that was affectionate and never pretentious. I never thought that you were this muddled!
Have you forgotten what Yatou asked of you?
By doing this, not only are you wronging the dead, you're also wronging the living people!
Fo Ye innocently got hurt by your sword. He hasn't recovered until now.
You? You're just drinking liquor like this all day to numb yourself.
Are you still a man?!
I look down on you!
Miss Yin, are you done talking?
Please call them back in then when you go out.
I paid for them.
Okay! Just continue drinking here!
Let me see how long you can continue to pretend to be muddled!
[Changshou (Long Life) Noodle House]
The business is getting harder.
That's right. If this continues, I just want to go back home and farm.
Say, that night, the one who was knocking to buy some noodles to eat,
could it be that opera artist Hong Er Ye?
It does look like it. When I extinguished the light, I peeked through the door slit.
Is there anyone in there?! Is there anyone home?! I want to buy a bowl of noodles!
Owner, is anyone around?!
He was carrying a woman and successively knocked on several noodle houses, but no one entertained them.
I heard that Er Ye was involved in both legal and illegal gangs.
He has a deep background.
Could he cause us trouble just because of one bowl of noodles?
He shouldn't do so.
I heard that his wife was sickly and had been sick for many years.
She didn't really die just because she didn't eat our noodles.
That's right. But I keep feeling uneasy.
- Okay already. Let's stop talking. - Owner, one bowl of noodles.
Come. Come. Sit.
Have some water first.
[Changshou Noodle House]
Owner, one bowl of noodles.
Sorry, we're closed.
I said to give me a bowl of noodles.
Didn't I already tell you that we're closed.
She only wanted to eat a bowl of yangchun noodles. Why didn't you open the door?!
What yangchun noodles?
You... are from the Hong Manor?
- Please spare my life. - Answer me.
Please have mercy. Young Sir, please have mercy. I really didn't know that she was dying.
If I knew, I would have opened the doors.
It's too late!
Please spare my life. Today, I'll especially make a bowl of yangchun noodles
to be offered to Madam. I will sincerely repent on my actions.
Go and make one for my teacher's wife in the netherworld then. She will surely be very happy.
[Fulai (Luck Come) Noodle House]
Fo Ye, last night, several noodles houses by the riverside suffered attacks from evildoers.
Eight people died. All killed by knife wounds.
But no valuables were lost. It seems to be a work of someone seeking revenge.
Are all the victims were people from the noodle houses?
Right. All were chefs, waiters, and owners.
Someone saw Er Ye going to these noodle houses with Madam.
It was exactly that night when Madam died.
Er Ye knocked to order some noodles, but no one opened their doors.
Where's Er Ye?
Er Ye has always been in Zuihong Brothel and has never left.
Also, the hospital informed us that Chen Pi has gone missing.
Chen Pi just doesn't know to curb his actions. He will commit a huge mistake sooner or later.
Issue a city-wide manhunt for Chen Pi.
Whether inside or outside the city, it must be searched. He must be captured.
Yes.
Who's that person? He's drenched in blood.
Quickly go! Go!
[Xie Yu Building]
- Jiu Ye. - Quickly sit.
- Have troubled you to make this trip. - Jiu Ye, no need for such words.
Fo Ye is injured and it's inconvenient. There are a lot of things that I can't decide on.
How is he doing?
The bandage has just been removed today.
The doctor said that there's nothing to worry about with the wound anymore.
He just needs to apply medicines everyday and recuperate.
I'm at ease then.
It's really one wave that hasn't subsided yet when another one forms.
Fo Ye has told you about Chen Pi's matter already?
Fo Ye has already ordered for a city-wide manhunt.
I never thought that this disciple of Er Ye
was so ruthless and sinister.
Er Ye still doesn't know about this.
Fo Ye is currently injured.
I think that we should hide this from Er Ye first, because if he knew, he might lose control.
What you mean is...
Let's catch Chen Pi first and meticulously interrogate him, so as not to create more troubles.
Okay.
Sir, have you heard that some murder cases happened in Changsha lately?
The noodle houses in the eastern side of the river were massacred.
Who did it?
My sources say that it was the doing of Chen Pi, the disciple of Er Yuehong.
That Mystic Nine is really full of talents.
Has Chen Pi been arrested?
Reporting to Sir. He's still at large. I'm currently investigating his whereabouts.
Send more men. He must be caught.
Maybe from him, we can find out a lot of internal secrets of the Mystic Nine Families.
Okay. I will do it right away.
Lieutenant!
Lieutenant, I finally found you.
Don't panic. Speak slowly.
Reporting to Lieutenant. We discovered that the tombs in the western outskirts have been freshly dug.
It might have been done by Chen Pi.
I got it. Let's go take a look.
Yes!
[Dexing Tea House]
This way.
Sir, our scouts reported that Zhang Qishan's men have found Chen Pi.
How many people did he send to catch him?
Just one lieutenant and one soldier. They probably didn't want to send too many people so as not to alarm him.
Okay. You must send more men and catch them off-guard.
Yes!
Don't let the people of Zhang Qishan find Chen Pi.
Yes!
Chen Pi, where do you still plan to escape to?
- After him! - Yes!
Lieutenant Zhang, I never thought that in the end, you didn't get anything.
If not because of your hindrance,
I probably would have caught him now.
I was interrogating Chen Pi previously.
If not because Zhang Qishan insisted to release him,
a murder case like that wouldn't have happened.
Zhang Qishan must take full responsibility.
I think that you don't really have a say about
whether Fo Ye should take responsibility or not. Am I right?
That's right. It's indeed like that right now.
But once Zhang Qishan isn't the Defense Commander anymore,
you better look again
if I have the final say or not.
[Xie Yu Building]
I almost caught Chen Pi.
But Lu Jianxun suddenly appeared. I don't know if he wants to catch him or let him escape.
That Lu Jianxun
can't hide his wild ambitions anymore.
It's my negligence for not being able to catch Chen Pi.
It's fine.
Chen Pi is still within the territories of the Nine Mystic Families. He won't be able to get far.
As long as we are thorough in our search, he will surely be captured by us sooner or later.
Now, the most important matter is Fo Ye going down the mine mountain.
How is Er Ye?
Madam is getting buried today.
Er Ye is in severe grief.
Er Ye only loves Madam.
What can we do? It's a deep love but shallow fate.
Yatou,
didn't you want me to happily live on?
I'll smile.
I'll listen to you. I'll listen to everything you said.
Yatou,
have a good journey. Wait for me.
You all go back. I'll do the rest myself.
Er Ye, just let me stay and help you.
That's right, Er Ye. Let me stay.
I want to stay alone with Madam for a while.
Yes.
Let's go.
Yatou, you're leaving.
I can't make you stay anymore, right?
Wait for me.
A reverse tomb raider hole?
[Hong Manor]
Ba Ye?
Where are you all going?
These past days, Er Ye has already given us instructions.
Once Madam gets buried, all servants will be dismissed.
Today, is Madam's burial day.
Er Ye asked us to all come back first for he wants to accompany Madam for a while by himself.
Even if Madam is gone, doesn't the manor still needs to be managed?
If you all leave, who will take care of Er Ye from now on?
I fear that this home will topple soon.
How long has Er Ye been gone?
After sending Madam off, we all returned here.
From then to now, it's already been a few hours.
Say you... How could you have left Er Ye alone there?
What if something bad happens?
It was he who insisted that we leave. We can't disobey him.
With Madam leaving, it's as if she also took Er Ye's mental spirit and soul with her.
We dare not say more, for fear that
he'll be in more pain.
It was also hard for you all.
Er Ye and Madam
had taken good care of us.
Look at how chaotic the situation is outside. By staying inside this manor,
we're able to peacefully settle down and get on with our pursuits.
We've long treated Madam and Er Ye as our benefactors.
But now, he wants to dismiss us all.
In this huge Hong Manor,
it would only be Er Ye left.
Qi Ba Ye, I have one thing to ask of you.
Please say it.
This time, when I go back to my home province,
I fear that it would be hard for me to return to Changsha.
I want to ask you to visit Er Ye often
when you have time.
Okay. Don't worry. Leave that to me.
Thank you, Qi Ba Ye. Sorry to trouble you.
If Er Ye continues to be like this,
it will be easy for him to develop chronic depression.
Good thing, he has a group of good friends accompanying him.
I hope that this knot in his heart can untie as soon as possible.
I'm sure Er Ye has already known the truth from Jiu Ye.
Even if it's for Madam, he won't ever do any inappropriate things.
It's just that he couldn't accept it yet. That's just normal human behavior.
Ba Ye, we'll take our leave now.
Take care.
I fear that this house will indeed disperse soon.
- Fo Ye is still refusing to see any guests? - We're just here to show our respect.
Let's go.
Forget it. Let's go.
Be careful for it's hot. Drink it slowly.
You must watch what you're eating while you're recuperating.
I've already set your meals.
Everyday, there will be non-greasy dishes.
For example green vegetables, Chinese cabbages, and tofu. All these are good for digestion.
You mustn't eat any raw meat. It's not good for wound repair.
Oh, right. It will be accompanied by some nourishing soup that's good for wound closure.
I ensure that you won't get sick eating them.
Hey, give it to me. Give it to me.
Xiaokui, quickly go prepare.
Yes, Madam.
You're that happy?
- What are you smiling about? - Nothing.
It's just that there were no annoying guests lately. So peaceful.
You... Look at how you are now.
How could you still have any energy to mind about nonsense?
No one coming to see you means that it's very peaceful outside.
That's a good thing. Once your injury has fully healed, you can go back to managing your affairs.
Ah... Fo Ye.
Fo Ye is still eating. Must you say it now?
- Leave. Leave. - Wai!
Let the butler finish.
Qi Ba Ye is here. He said that he has important things to discuss with you.
Hence, I came to ask for your instructions.
Why is there a need to ask my permission? Just let him in.
But didn't you give instructions
that during your recuperation period...
you wouldn't see anyone even the king.
So what if I'm the one who said it?
I don't want them to disturb your recuperation.
Tell Ba Ye to wait for me in my bedroom.
Yes.
Miss Yin,
can you stop deciding on your own?
There are specific people handling every affair in my manor. No need for you to exert any effort for them.
Also, Yatou is already dead. I feel that in Changsha,
you have no more people that you should worry about. Go back to Beiping already.
Zhang Qishan, I'm worried about you!
Can you stop driving me away?
I... pitied you for not having anyone taking care of you when you were wounded, so I stayed behind.
You think I want to care for you?! So odd.
Your Fo Ye is the greatest hero of his age! He doesn't need to eat!
Hey... come back.
Give it to me.
You go back now.
Yes.
Fo Ye.
How is Er Ye?
I exactly came to talk about that.
After Er Ye sent off Madam to be buried, he hasn't returned yet.
What?
Er Ye even dismissed all his servants.
From the looks of it, his heart is in severe despair, and will be hard to get ignited again.
Now that Er Ye has learned the truth, I'm sure that he won't get in any major trouble.
But with his current emotions and situation, I fear that it will take time for him to go back to how he is.
Oh, right. Fo Ye, do you remember that barber I met when investigating the mine mountain?
Today, he came to tell me that the Japanese are frequently seen around the mine mountain.
The Japanese are making strange moves again.
Let's go down the mine mountain for the second time.
Fo Ye, the mine cave is very dangerous.
Without Er Ye's help, I fear that our chances of surviving will be dismal.
Er Ye hasn't resolved the knot in his heart yet.
He's currently in an absent-minded state. It's not suitable for him to go down the tomb.
Moreover, we don't have any more time.
The Japanese have more advanced equipment and have sufficient gunpowder. Going to the mine mountain will happen sooner or later.
We must make clear the situation inside before the Japanese go in.
If Fo Ye insists on doing so, I will accompany you.
We must make proper preparations this time to ensure that it will absolutely be safe.
Don't worry. I will prepare well this time.
Okay. I'll go back now and wait for your news.
Sister-in-Law.
Why are you here?
When are you setting out?
What did you say? Set out to where?
Aren't you going down a tomb? I heard it earlier.
Miss Yin Xinyue, don't you know that eavesdropping is a very disrespectful thing?
If you want to keep it a secret, why didn't you ask anyone to guard the doors?
You still haven't fully recuperated. Can you not risk danger this soon?
I know my limits. Mind your own business.
I...
Okay. Anyway, I can't control you, is that it?
Go to your death then.
Goodbye.
[If there are any of my descendants that will pass through this door... should return to the truth of this matter. ]
[Hatoyama Report]
It's this place.
Please enter.
Get to work.
Okay.
Second-in-Command, it's 110 feet in width.
- Note it down first, 110 feet width. - Jot it down.
Second-in-Command, the door width is 55 feet.
Second-in-Command, the height is about 200 feet.
Second-in-Command, the door height is 60 feet.
Second-in-Command, in front.
"All hope abandon,
ye who enter here!"
Mister, come over and take a look.
Open the door! Hurry!
This place is dangerous and strange.
The tomb room is also quite huge. There must be an important treasure in here.
These treasures belong to us Chinese. We mustn't let the Japanese take them.
What should we do then?
It's here. Look.
Come.
How about this, let's divide into two groups. Da Long, Lao Shiba,
the three of us will secretly sneak away to look for the treasure.
Xiao Sanzi, Si'er, Liu'er, continue following the Japanese.
If we find the treasure first, we'll leave a mark.
If they find the treasure before us,
you then...
