The Untamed
Episode 42
It's said Lan clan of Gusu take etiquette most important.
Judging from this case,
it seems it's just being said, not done.
Forcing one's way to the bedroom of a clan leader,
does it fit with etiquette?
Su She.
Hanguang Jun.
Su She.
You defected from Lan clan,
but still imitate Hanguang Jun.
He wields Qin. So do you.
How could you scold Lan clan of Gusu?
You...
Who do you think you are?!
Enough.
Clan Leader Su.
It's not as though
there are some disreputable things in there.
Since second brother is so intent on it,
then I must open it for everyone to see, mustn't I?
= Fragrance Hall =
Why is madam Jin here?
All of our possessions are shared.
Su often comes in here to admire things as well.
Second brother.
Everyone.
This is my small treasure vault.
What do you want to see?
Please help yourself.
Jin Guangyao didn't transfer her somewhere else or kill her?
Isn't he afraid that Qin Su might say something?
Mrs. Jin.
So Childe Mo took us into the hidden chamber
is to see Mrs. Jin.
Yao.
What is that?
This
is something rare.
The dagger
killed countless people
and it's extremely sharp.
Look at the blade of the dagger.
If you look closely,
you'll see that the reflection inside it isn't yourself.
Sometimes it's a man,
sometimes it's a woman,
sometimes it's an elder.
Every one of those reflections
is a spirit that had died in the assassin's hands.
Its resentful energy is too strong,
which is why I hung a curtain there to seal it.
This must be...
That's right.
It belonged to Wen Ruohan.
Then it was given to Wen Qing.
Mrs. Jin!
Su!
Su?
Su.
Wake up, Su. Su.
Su.
Yao,
I am sorry.
Second brother,
what is going on?
Why would Su suddenly take her own life?
And,
why would you gather in front of the Fragrance Hall
and demand me to open my treasure vault?
Is there anything that you haven't told me?
What's going on?
Some time ago,
some of the Gusu's disciples
were on a night hunt.
When they passed Mo's Manor, they were met with
the attack of a blade spirit.
Both its resentful energy and its killing intent were heavy.
The disciples dared not neglect it,
and rushed back to Gusu to tell us.
So Wangji
had been investigating it.
Finally, in a place called Coffin Town,
the body of the blade spirit's owner was found.
The body has no head, so we cannot
recognize the identity.
But the blade spirit became visible.
The shape is like
Baxia.
Baxia?
Was the corpse our big brother?
How could that be possible?
Big brother has been missing for so many years.
How could that be possible?
Brother Xichen?
The one you're referring to
is my big brother
and also your brother, right?
Clan Leader! Clan Leader!
Clan Leader!
Where's the doctor?!
Dismembering the body.
Taking the head away from the corpse.
Who in this world could have done such an insane act?!
I do not know.
When we started to search for the head,
the clues disappeared.
The clues disappeared...
So
you came to search my place?
You wanted me to open the treasure vault,
because you were suspecting...
that big brother's head is at my place?
Well.
Let's drop the matter.
But second brother and Hanguang Jun, how did you know
that such a treasure vault
is inside my bedchamber?
And how did you make sure that
big brother's head is at my place?
What should I do?
How can I explain that I sneaked into the hidden chamber
and I saw Nie Mingjue's head?
How could I tell them about
the odd letter since Qin Su has died?
Xuanyu,
is it you who told my second brother and those people that?
What's the use of making up this sort of
flimsy lies?
Mo Xuanyu.
Back then, because of your indecent harassment to Mrs. Jin,
you were kicked out of Jin clan.
Yet, speaking from the hearsay nowadays,
you somehow got favored by Hanguang Jun,
followed him
wherever he goes
and became close friends.
Why would Hanguang Jun, who has always been known for his
grace and righteousness, keep such a notorious person
by his side?
It truly is difficult to understand.
I won't bring up anything from the past,
but please explain in all honesty.
About Su's suicide for unknown reason,
are you
involved in this incident?
Hands off.
You're the one who should keep your hands off. Hanguang Jun.
Lan Zhan.
Step aside.
It's the Yiling Patriarch!
You are the Yiling Patriarch!
You...
You are him!
I didn't know that Yiling Patriarch has returned
and paid us your precious visit.
Apologies for the lack of reception.
Third brother,
what did you call him?
Isn't he Mo Xuanyu?
Ling, come over.
Everyone, please be careful.
Since he pulled his sword out,
he's most definitely the Yiling Patriarch,
Wei Wuxian!
Is it that whoever pulls out the sword
must be the Yiling Patriarch?
Third brother, Hanguang Jun.
Is there any misunderstanding between you guys?
No misunderstanding at all.
He's Wei Wuxian for sure.
The simplest way to prove it is
to ask him to take off his mask.
Wait! Uncle Jin.
Uncle Jiang,
didn't you hit him with Purple Lightening
back at Dafan Mountain?
But nothing happened to him.
Isn't it that those possessing others' bodies
would show themselves once whipped by Purple Lightening?
So
he may not be Wei Wuxian, right?
Dafan Mountain?
That's right.
Ling, now that you reminded me,
I've also remembered just what had
appeared in Dafan Mountain.
Wasn't he the one who summoned
Ghost General, Wen Ning as well?
You people might not know that,
when Xuanyu was still at Jinlintai,
he had seen a copy of the
Yiling Patriarch's manuscript at my place.
The manuscript recorded a evil trick
named "Sacrifice Summon".
With the price of one's own spiritual cognition, it can save
who are seriously injured.
Clan Leader Jiang
wouldn't be able to find out such evil trick,
even if you hit him with a hundred more strikes.
Yiling Patriarch,
ever since you jumped off the cliff of Nevernight,
your sword
was collected by the Jin clan of Lanling.
But, not long afterwards,
the sword sealed itself.
I believe that I don't need
to explain how a sword seals itself.
This sword is spiritual.
It refuses to let anyone except Wei Wuxian use it,
which was why it sealed itself.
Aside from the Yiling Patriarch himself,
nobody can pull it out.
Sealed itself?
But "Mo XuanYu" here, in front of everyone,
pulled out the sword that
had been sealed
for sixteen years!
= Fragrance Hall =
Your Excellency, shall we chase?
Yes.
Ling,
we could never expect that he was Yiling Patriarch, Wei Wuxian.
He has tricked us all. So I don't blame you
for treating the murderer of your father as a friend,
and protect him all the way.
Go after them!
Get Wei Ying!
Take Yiling Patriarch alive!
Get him!
- They're ahead! - Don't let him go!
Get him.
Lan Zhan, stay away.
Yiling Patriarch,
at this moment,
why do you still wear the mask?
Yiling Patriarch, you are worthy of the title.
Returning to the world after sixteen years,
you can still make all of us look like idiots.
Not only Jin Ling,
but Hanguang Jun was also fooled by you.
You're right.
Not right.
I have already known he was Wei Ying.
Lan Zhan.
Lan Zhan, you don't have to do that.
I've been used to this for a long time.
Let's go first.
You just say you were deceived by me.
Others dare not say anything about you.
Wei Ying,
Do you remember
what you asked me in the Cloud Recesses?
Lan Zhan,
but did you really
believe in me back then?
The feeling of sticking to the single-log bridge
til it's dark is indeed not bad.
Who cares about the crowded, broad avenue?
I'll stick to my single-log bridge till it's dark.
Lan Zhan. You fuddy-duddy.
Lan Zhan.
I'll give you one more chance.
Think carefully.
After you walk out this door,
your reputation will be ruined.
Are we going to fight or not?
Too much talk.
Let's fight!
Go!
You're Wei Ying?
You really are Wei Ying, Wei Wuxian?
Jin ling.
I'll tell you
about this in the future.
Are you okay?
Why did this kid
stab the same place like his uncle?
I'm hanging in.
Let's go.
Stygian Tiger Amulet is not orthodox after all.
Once you get restless,
you will lose control.
Lan Zhan.
You're worried that I'll be like Wen Ruohan
who was controlled by Yin Iron.
But Stygian Tiger Amulet is not Yin Iron.
Nor am I Wen Ruohan.
Wei Ying,
why laugh?
Nothing.
Just
something funny.
When everyone admired my power and wanted to flatter me,
you're the only one who scolded me.
But right now,
when everyone wants me to die
and hates me,
you're the only one
standing by me.
= Cultivation Chamber =
The wound at your stomach?
The wound?
It's fine.
It's caused by Sacrifice Summon.
How to undo it?
Now I know
who is Mo's last enemy.
As soon as he's dead,
the curse will lift naturally.
It's Jin Guangyao.
Now, in any case,
I would not believe that Mo Xuanyu
was expelled from Jinlintai
because he harassed madam Jin.
I'm afraid he knew
what Jin Guangyao's secret was
and wanted to tell Qin Su,
but Jin Guangyao took the initiative to kick him off.
Why did he do that?
But I am sure that
the person who let Mo Xuanyu know the secret
must be the same person who wrote the letter.
It's very likely that
this man has been leading us
to trace the cause of Red Blade Master's death.
This person seems to
know a lot about Jin Guangyao
and hates him deeply.
Do you think
this person will be Jin Guangyao's lover?
The hate originated from love.
Your sword.
= Whatever =
Thank you.
It really did seal itself?
Is there the
Cultivation Chamber?
Yes.
You took me back to Cloud Recesses?
What if your brother finds out?
I have found out already.
Sorry to bother you,
Zewu Jun.
It was me who let Wangji take you back.
Before we get to the bottom of this,
Childe Wei could live here.
As long as I am there,
they dare not come to Cloud Recesses for searching you.
Zewu Jun,
May I ask
where's Red Blade Master's body?
The many sect's have already seen
with their own eyes Brother's body.
It is being kept by Huaisang for the moment.
I have sent those I trust to watch over it as well.
What's Jin Guangyao's reaction?
Flawless.
He said that he would
definitely get to the bottom of the matter
and give everyone an account.
Now that
Childe Wei is awake,
then, Wangji, isn't it time
for you to give me an account as well?
Brother.
You're more than I can handle.
Brother,
Jin Guangyao indeed has
Red Blade Master's head.
You saw with your own eyes?
He saw with his own eyes.
You believe in Childe Wei?
I do.
What about Jin Guangyao?
Not credible.
Wangji,
then how do you judge
whether someone is credible or not?
You trust Childe Wei,
while I trust Jin Guangyao.
Whether my big brother's head is in his hands.
Neither of you and me saw it with our own eyes.
We could only judge one based on how much I know him
and his words that we trust.
You think that you know about Childe Wei,
so you trust him.
Also,
I think that I know about Jin Guangyao,
so I trust him as well.
You believe in your judgment,
then am I not allowed to
believe in my judgment?
Clan Leader Lan.
Childe Wei, no need to worry.
Before the truth is entirely revealed,
I will not be partial to either side
or reveal your whereabouts.
Or else, I would not have allowed Wangji to take you back
or helped with your injuries.
Clan Leader Lan, I'm grateful
that you gave me this opportunity.
The fact that Red Blade Master's head is inside Jin's hidden room
is nothing but true.
Not only have I seen it,
I've also seen some other things.
Maybe this could offer some proof?
Childe Wei,
perhaps you have seen some things indeed.
However, you cannot prove that
you saw those things within the hidden chamber of Jinlintai.
That's true.
Then how about something else?
The direct cause of Red Blade Master's death
was indeed because he was possessed by the devil,
but, Clan Leader Lan,
don't you think that
the timing was a bit too much of a coincidence?
The doings of the blade spirit
is one of the reasons,
but have you ever thought that
there might be another cause to it?
What do you think the other cause is?
The Cleansing Music.
Childe Wei,
did you know that his Cleansing Music
had been taught by me personally?
Then, Clan Leader Lan, could you please listen
if there's anything strange with the music?
= Cultivation Chamber =
Is this piece of music
the one you taught to Jin Guangyao?
Yes.
The music is obscure.
It is difficult as well.
Did Jin Guangyao choose this piece himself?
That is correct.
Since it is really difficult,
then why did Jin Guangyao choose this piece
instead of something easier?
Because I have told him that
although it is difficult to master,
its effects are excellent.
The Cleansing Music is indeed difficult. Childe Wei,
you played one passage wrong as well, did you not?
I played it wrong?
One passage of it is wrong.
Wrong?
Is it...
Wei Ying.
Right.
It's wrong!
It's not that I was wrong.
Jin Guangyao is the one who was wrong!
When I was conducting the Empathy,
this really was how he played it.
I can promise that
I repeated that without any mistake at all.
Then he learned it wrong?
That would be impossible.
That would indeed be impossible.
Lianfang Zun is that clever.
His memory is uncommonly good,
how could he remember the melody wrong?
It's likely that it was on purpose.
I'll play it again.
This time, you two
please listen carefully to the passage that I "played wrong".
Stop.
This is it.
As I expected.
But I don't find this passage
inappropriate at all.
It does sound appropriate.
But it definitely is not part of Cleansing Music.
You two can follow me.
= Library Pavilion =
Clan Leader Lan,
would we be able to find the source of the melody here?
Not here.
But here.
This is...
Forbidden Chamber.
This section is all books of strange music.
= The Collection of Turmoil =
What is "The Collection of Turmoil"?
A music collection of Dongying (Ancient Chinese address of Japan).
Legendarily, it is a collection of evil music gathered by
one of the Lan clan of Gusu's cultivators
during his years of wandering when he was
traveling in Dongying.
Music in this book,
if played with spiritual power channeled in,
are able to harm others,
weaken the body,
irritate the mind,
agitate the spirit
or shut the senses…
Those with great spiritual power
could take others' lives
in just three notes.
This is the one!
Clan Leader Lan,
within the Collection,
is there any that can disturb
a person's temperament,
making them irritated,
agitated, violent,
easily-angered?
There should be.
It's so obvious to take someone's life
with just three notes.
He definitely
wouldn't have chosen a song so fatal.
But, if he had adopted
the reason of playing the Cleansing Music for Red Blade Master,
in the name of calming him down,
to play it for three months,
would the song
be able to act as a slow poison and catalyze
Red Blade Master's outburst?
