[Episode 48]
Fo Ye, why do you keep looking at
Baiqiao Village's sacred tree?
Didn't you ever wonder
why the child corpses in this tree never rot?
Also,
have you not thought about why the Japanese insisted to take coffins here
and use them to develop viruses?
What you mean is...
The third meteorite recorded in the classic writing of Qing Wuzi
is buried under this sacred tree.
So that's the case.
No wonder there were Qiao tribe languages in that classic scroll.
Great Zhang Fo Ye.
If you dare attempt to touch the foundation of our sacred tree,
I will never allow it.
Chieftain, there's something you don't know.
The meteorite has been buried here for thousands of years.
It has long merged with the sacred tree.
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't do anything about it.
♫ 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, 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 ♫
♫ Victory or defeat isn't definite ♫
♫ Just pursue your dream ♫
[The Mystic Nine]
Here! Here! The noodles are here!
- Is it delicious? - Delicious!
I cooked that.
Ya Tou, don't worry. Starting today,
no one will dare bully you.
[Hong Ancestral Tomb]
Er Ye, you...
Why are you here?
I brought you some calming and brain nourishing medicine.
I went to your house and realized you were not home,
so I came here.
I also just randomly guessed.
I thought that since you're not at home, you might have gone to visit your wife.
Er Ye, I also don't know what happened to you.
But I feel that if your wife were still around,
she surely wouldn't hope to see you like this.
You're over worrying.
I'm just creating a coffin for myself,
so I can be buried with Ya Tou once I die of old age.
That's good then.
Er Ye, how come your coffin
is much higher than your wife's?
This way, when we reunite in the netherworld,
I can let her lean on my shoulder
and sing another opera for her.
Here.
The meteorite is here.
Mister, what are you doing?
We better hurry and escape.
What is this? What is this?
What is this?
Biaozi Mountain Ridge?
Hendry Cox then had since gone missing.
Although Tanaka has been killed by Chen Pi,
the evil scheme of the Japanese didn't succeed.
The Japanese didn't stop their pace of conquering lands and increasing their wild ambitions.
After long years of peace,
the Japanese initiated an all-out war to conquer China.
Fo Ye, everyone is waiting for you in Jiu Ye's manor.
Quickly go. Don't make them wait.
After I and Er Ye meet,
I'll directly go to the military camp to prepare for battle.
Okay.
I've already let Hearing Servant and Baton-Carrying Servant
report to the military camp.
No.
The journey to Beiping is far.
How could there be no one protecting you?
I've kept the people who can protect me.
But you,
the battlefield is very dangerous.
Having more people to help you
won't be a bad thing.
Once the battle is over,
I'll personally go to Beiping to see you.
I'll wait for you in Beiping.
Send me a telegram once you've arrived in Beiping.
Yes.
- Xiaokui. - Fo Ye.
While I'm not around,
take good care of Madam.
Yes, Fo Ye. Don't worry.
Madam, are we really not leaving anymore?
We're not leaving.
If he wins...
this battle,
I must stay at home
to welcome his return.
If he loses,
what's the point of me returning to Beiping
alone?
Three wan.
- This one. - Thank you for rewarding me.
All green. I won.
My predictions aren't working.
I actually didn't predict that I'd lose this bad.
Here. For you.
The planes of those Japanese are flying too low.
Don't say it anymore. Last night, they were so noisy.
I wasn't able to sleep at all.
Most people have left Changsha City. It'll soon become an empty city.
Stop saying nonsense. This is the last round.
If you want to win any money, you better do your best.

Jiu Ye, stop arranging the tiles first.
What?
Let's exchange seats.
Sanniang, let's exchange seats instead.
The Fengshui on your seats is way better than mine.
Ba Ye, we haven't finished eight rounds and you already want to exchange seats?
Just because Fo Ye isn't here to control you, you're trying to be a tyrant to us?
Look at what you're saying. Even if Fo Ye were here,
I would still act like a tyrant.
Have you three colluded to bully me today?
Come! Let's continue with our game.
I won't play anymore! Fo Ye!
You're finally here. Why didn't you come earlier?
What's wrong?
He doesn't want to keep losing.
No, I'm leaving tonight.
They aren't giving me any transportation money at all.
My Huo Clan will also be leaving by tomorrow morning and head south to hide.
Changhsa is now a dangerous place.
It's good to disperse. Oh right, Jiu Ye, what are your plans?
I plan to go to Hong Kong. I happen to have business partners there
and my living situation would be more convenient.
Okay. What about you, Er Ye?
I plan to go to Baiqiao.
All banquets will eventually end.
- What about you? - Protecting one's home and guarding one's country is the duty of a soldier.
The war situation is very tense right now.
I'm just hoping that upon the return of the members of the Mystic Nine Families here,
the glory of China has been recovered and the Japanese have retreated.
By that time, you all should remember to light an incense in front of my tomb.
Fo Ye, why say such words?
I hope that you all don't forget
that I still have a wife called Yin Xinyue.
Fo Ye, don't worry. We will spread the word.
From now on, no one among the Mystic Nine Families
will offend Xinyue Hotel.
Thank you.
[Xie Yu Bulding]
[Cha Tian Wu She (Teafields As My Home)]
Fo Ye, are we directly going to the military camp?
I want to walk along the streets first.
[Silk Store]
Please pity me.
Thanks. Thanks.
Thanks.
After them!
Don't look back! Quickly go!
Dad!
Don't... mind me.
Go... to Changsha.
Go to Chang... sha.
- Dad! - Go... to... Chang... sha...
[Restaurant]
[North Gate]
Brother, for you.
Little child, come back. We're eating.
Got it, Auntie!
So obedient. I'll go make you some red braised pork.
Okay.
[Divine Strategy. Shrewd Calculation] [Buy One. Predict One]
About last time, I'll really have to rely on you, Mister.
Thanks. Thanks.
Hold it well.
- Take care. - Okay.
Predicting your fate, interpreting writings! One copper coin every time!
Will not get your money if it's not accurate!
Mister, you are born with good looks.
Not only will you be wealthy, but you'll also be respected, too.
A rare in this world.
- Are those words true? - I swear by Heaven that none of them are fake.
Although I don't trust predictions,
I feel embarrassed with you praising me like this.
Take this money. Thanks.
Mister, quickly take them. I dare not
accept this money. I hope that
you can take good care of me in the future.
I'll gift this prediction to you as my meeting gift.
Thanks.
[Divine Strategy. Shrewd Calculation] [Buy One. Predict One]
That ancient tomb is so dangerous. Even people within our Mystic Nine Families won't dare to go.
Why must you bring trouble to yourself?
If you don't go through danger, how can you get a foothold here in Changsha?
You're already this badly injured and you're still being arrogant?
Are you planning to be the leader of the Mystic Nine Families?
That prediction you made before is so inaccurate.
In the end, I still have to rely on you to take care of me.
Fine, it's inaccurate.
Anyway, I didn't accept your money. We don't owe each other anything.
[Tianhecheng Antique Shop]
- I'm going home now! - Okay. Take care.

Don't worry.
It's been half a day. Why is it not out yet?
Look at him. For such a joyous occasion,
he's being too tense. Come, smile a little. Relax.
It would be fine. Be at ease.
Old Master! Madam has given birth!
The baby is born! Congratulations!
- Congratulations! - Congratulations!
What are you doing? You want to go there yourself?
I'll push you.
Thank you, Fo Ye.
You're a father now. How do you feel?

[Lingering Beautiful Sound Revolving Around the Beam]

On September 1939,
the Chinese and Japanese armies had their first battle in Changsha.
The Japanese army knew very well the importance of this battle.
To ensure victory in one battle, they sent out a total of six main force companies.
The enemies came at a vicious pace. Our army's morale was unstable.
There were even soldiers that deserted in the middle of the battle.
Great Zhang Fo Ye and his men were entrusted with a mission at this critical moment.
They must live or die with the city of Changsha.
But the enemies were strong, and our army was weak. Helplessly,
the great city was about to topple for a single wood couldn't support it any longer.
The battle continuously went on.
But... for every inch of territory lost,
the enemies must pay a more painful price.
Fo Ye, I fear that there's not much time.
Increase the speed.
Everyone, hurry up!
- Quickly run! - Quickly go!
[Changsha City]
Go!
Fo Ye!
- Are you all right? - I'm fine.
Fo Ye, the Japanese army is attacking.
Changsha City is our home.
The citizens of Changsha are close to us just like our own siblings.
People can die, but we mustn't lose our home.
I'm not a mighty person.
I just know that the enemies are in front of us now.
These enemies
encroached on my country's lands and killed my comrades.
As a soldier,
we're full of hot blood
that's only to be spilled for the citizens of Changsha.
Even if we die,
- the city can't fall! - The city can't fall!
The city can't fall!
I hope that one day,
when your descendants kowtow and place incense in front of your tombs,
they will remember the autumn of 1939.
That you followed a person name Zhang Qishan on the frontlines of the battle against the Japanese,
exerted your last breath,
and dripped your last blood to successfully guard our home!
The Chinese won't fall down!
Swearing to guard our home until death!
- Attack! - Charge!
Fo Ye!
Fo Ye, are you all right?
We're all brothers of the Mystic Nine Families. How could we let you go to your death alone?
Charge!

♫ A man immerses his loyal bones in the sand, wears his golden armor to conquer the the ends of the earth ♫
♫ Behind me are barn lanterns of prison; my old friend, you are my home ♫
♫ Clear sky then mild drizzle, rain falls on the steps; the umbrellas paired with green clothes looked like a painting ♫
