Once upon a Time in LingJian Mountain
Episode 30
Ling!
Boren.
Boren. You are here.
Don't open up.
Why?
Because
we’re getting married tomorrow.
According to the customs,
we can’t meet each other before the wedding.
So we could have a lifetime
to be happy together.
All right.
Besides,
I heard you had a hard fight
at Beastmastery Sect.
What was going on?
Are you hurt?
Don’t worry, Ling.
I’m fine.
It’s a long story.
I’ll tell you about it bit by bit.
But it’s all gone.
From now on,
you’re the apple of my eye,
the light of my life.
Not just for now,
for the rest of my life.
I believe you.
I really
can’t lose you again.
What’s with the nonsense?
After the wedding, I’ll be here for you.
I’ll cook for you
and do the laundry.
I won’t go anywhere.
Dummy.
How could I ask you to do those things for me?
I just want to see you every day.
That is
all I want from you.
I miss you.
We’ll meet each other soon.
Yes.
We’ll meet each other soon.
Ling,
I want you to know
that I really care about you.
No matter what I do,
it’s out of my love to you.
No matter what
or whom I become?
No matter what
or whom you become,
as long as we’re together,
I’ll be satisfied,
and happy,
like...
we’d been before.
Boren.
I couldn’t hide it from you any longer.
As a matter of fact,
there’s a demon restricted in my body.
Boren?
Boren.
Boren,
how is Ling?
She’s fine.
OK, then.
If that nasty priest
ruined Foxie’s human body,
even his death wouldn’t pay for our loss.
Luckily, Wang Lu and his pals
saved us lots of troubles.
Boren,
are you sure
the Red String Magic you told me
can break the seal and release
the Foxie from that woman’s body?
Boren, what are you worrying about?
Nothing.
You have feelings for that woman?
Chai Qi.
Foxie is the love of my life.
I swear to the Heaven and Earth.
Don’t joke about it.
Right.
She did so much for us.
Now she’s sealed in that woman’s body.
We have to release her at any cost.
That’s why we staged your encounter with her,
and made her
fall in love with you.
As long as you make her drink
the nuptial liquor with drugs
and perform Red String Magic,
we can break the seal
and release Foxie.
Besides,
the drug is harmless,
but it makes a demon transform.
Make sure you take the right cup of liquor
tomorrow in the ceremony.
If you took hers and transformed,
those from Lingjian Sect would know.
It would be another trouble.
Don’t worry.
I’ll be careful.
Stay back here tomorrow.
I’m afraid those from Lingjian Sect
would see you through.
Then our plan would end up in vain.
But...
It’s your wedding tomorrow.
It’s OK.
When Foxie is released,
you can have as much wedding liquor as you wish.
I’m worried about Hai Yunfan.
He seems to be hostile to us.
I’m worried that he’ll destroy my wedding.
So would you please
stay here
and watch over him for me?
No problem, Boren.
Nothing will go wrong tomorrow.
Foxie is the Nine-tail fox.
Even the leaders of the Five Sects
weren’t her rivals.
When we release Foxie tomorrow,
those from Lingjian Sect better do nothing,
otherwise,
in the worst scenario,
we continue what we did 30 years ago.
30 years ago?
30 years ago, the Nine-tail fox
was sealed in Ling’s body.
They are demons.
I have to tell Lu and the others.
Barrier?
Goodness.
You’re so pretty.
I’d even want to kick Boren away and marry you.
Stop it.
They may think
we from Lingjian Mountain are all mad.
Smile.
Hai.
Hai?
Let’s go. We’re going to ask Ling for red package.
Hai?
Bao.
Where is Hai?
I haven’t seen him since we left Yuntai Mountain.
Oh, man.
He’s still anxious about Xue Boren’s identity?
Back in the tavern,
he sworn to prove to you
that Xue Boren is a demon.
So stubborn!
Even you don’t prove it yet,
you can’t turn down their wedding invitation.
I wanted you two to be the flower boys.
Call him with the Jade Stone.
Stop struggling to get out.
How is it going?
Did you find him?
No one answers.
But I searched him with the Jade Stone.
He should be close by,
in the mansion.
That’s weird.
Has he been hiding with Invisible Charm?
Hai is sensitive about reputation.
Maybe he’s afraid that Master Wu
laughs at him because he lost the bet.
So he hides up.
He’ll show up at the wedding.
I think something is wrong.
But I can’t tell what it is.
The seal is different in form.
But it’s similar to Six Lights Prison.
As long as I find the intersections,
draw its mirror image charm
and perform magic,
I can break the formation.
But first, I have to deal with this guy.
Chai Qi.
Though you’re ordered to watch me,
there’s no need to watch me all the time.
Boren’s order. I keep my eyes open.
Oh, right,
I have some desserts
from Wangyue Cakes.
Do you want to have some?
No, thanks.
Chai Qi,
look,
we have nothing to do after all.
Let’s play ball catching, OK?
No.
Crap.
The ceremony starts now.
Heaven and Earth be your witness.
Seniors, bless the couple.
Kowtow to your mate.
The liquor
is a symbol of
your long-lasting love
and the red string
links Boren and Ling together.
When you drink it,
you become families.
Look who blushes?
Are you sure she is shy?
Please drink the liquor.
Wait.
Master Wu,
Ling can’t marry Xue Boren.
Why?
Because
he’s a demon.
Mr. Hai,
I guess there must be some misunderstandings.
Boren rescued those girls
from being tortured by
Priest Zuo of Beastmastery Sect.
How could it be possible that he’s a demon?
Besides,
we have been hospitable
to you all these days.
Today is the wedding day.
Please watch out your manners.
Master Wu,
what I said is true.
Don’t be blinded by them.
Hai Yunfan.
Let’s talk about it later.
Be good.
Stand back.
Moreover,
the purpose Xue Boren marries
Ling is to
release the Nine-tail fox
sealed in Ling’s body.
We’re all fooled.
What’s the nonsense?
Hai,
though you lost the bet with me,
you can’t blame it
on Ling.
Where did you hear it?
Nonsense.
I know what you’re worried about.
But it’s really not like that.
The demons
put drugs in the nuptial liquor
to perform Red String Magic
and break the seal.
Boren.
Boren, look at my eyes.
Tell me.
Is it true?
Ling,
I love you.
Trust me.
There’s nothing in the liquor.
Xue Boren,
how dare you deny it?
Mr. Hai,
I know
you have questions concerning my identity
and we have misunderstandings.
But on this matter,
you’re wrong.
Liar!
I’m sure
there are drugs in the nuptial liquor.
It’s said once a demon drinks it,
it transforms.
If you’re so sure there’s no drugs in it,
dare you drink it in front of us?
Ling!
Boren.
If that’s what you want,
I’ll do it.
Ling!
It should be me who drink this.
It should be me.
I want you to know
every word I tell you
is true.
No matter what you become,
I won’t
leave you
forever.
Boren! Boren!
What’s going on?
How could I know?
What?
Why
didn’t you transform?
Mr. Hai.
What kind of transformation you wish to see?
Does it
make you satisfied
if Ling and I both transform
into demons?
Hai.
I told you before.
You need to have solid proof.
Right?
Look the weird situation you put us in.
Feeling embarrassed?
Am I wrong?
Drugs?
It’s just Maiden Rose.
Vintage.
Yes.
Boren.
There was a moment
I suspected you.
Now it looks like
I shouldn’t have.
Ling,
in that situation,
everyone
would make the mistake.
Trust me.
No hard feelings.
But Boren, there’s something
I should let you know.
Actually I’m...
All right.
Now everything is clear.
Let’s waste no more time.
The wedding day is supposed to be joyful.
Let’s continue.
Go on with the ceremony.
Yes.
Where were we?
Get back to the ceremony.
I’m dying to have a sip of the Maiden Rose.
Freeze Charm.
Damn humans!
Release Foxie.
Chai Qi.
What are you doing?
Don’t come closer.
Or I’ll kill her.
Chai Qi.
If you regard me as your cousin,
lay the Spirit Breaker down.
Boren.
What?
You won’t listen to me anymore?
Boren.
Wake up.
This woman...
She is not Foxie.
How could you betray Foxie
for a human girl?
Have you forgotten
how they treated us
and Foxie before?
I know
you well.
You won’t
spend the peaceful life with me.
Though I don’t know when we will part,
I decide to give
my farewell gift to you now.
Hope you’ll never
use the gift I give you.
Boren.
Is Foxie all right?
Darling.
I’m fine.
The wound is nothing.
I just need a few days to rest.
Foxie,
I was too naughty
and exposed my identity. Hence attacked.
You were wounded to save me.
Sorry, Foxie.
We didn’t do anything wrong.
Why should we feel sorry?
You saved the farm wife’s life.
Yet she asked for help to kill you.
Humans like her belong in hell.
Don’t worry.
When I recover,
I’ll deliver the justice for you.
Darling, they’re just scared.
Is there anyone in the world
who isn’t afraid of demons?
You always speak for them.
What’s wrong to be demon?
We’re the minorities.
So we have to live under cover?
How many good deeds have you done?
How many people received your help?
What about them?
Do they hate us less
because of the good deeds you’d done?
It’s OK.
I don’t care.
But I do.
I just want to appear on the street like them.
I want to live without hiding,
like humans do.
Why is it so difficult for us?
When she recovered,
Foxie left alone rashly.
She challenged Five Sects
to defend demons’ rights.
I heard after
that she was sealed
in the body of Lingjian Sect leader’s daughter.
We worked out such a delicate plan
to break the seal and release Foxie.
Chai Qi.
Even it’s true about the seal in my body,
it’s a matter between your cousin and me.
You should stay out of it.
Free me.
Free her.
It’s your fault.
Boren has become a stranger since you met.
If you got married today,
he would never release Foxie.
I’ll kill you.
Chai Qi.
Boren!
Boren.
She...
is my wife now.
Boren!
Don’t scare me, Boren!
You scared me, Boren!
Boren, it wasn’t my intention.
Boren!
I want you to be fine.
Boren.
You’re so stupid!
Boren.
Ling!
What should you call me?
We’ve completed the ceremony.
Yes, we have.
You’re my husband now.
Darling, you have to hold on there.
There has to be a way to save you.
Wang Lu.
Help him.
Save him.
Darling!
Darling, hold on.
Darling!
Hold on.
Don’t cry.
The tears
make you ugly.
Darling!
Hold on.
Darling!
Ling.
Boren! Boren!
Boren!
Darling!
Wake up.
Darling!
The Time Frozen formation is dissolving.
Crap!
Feng Yin’s blood can’t hold her anymore.
It’s you.
My cousin died for you. I’ll kill you.
Ling!
Master!
Ling! Are you crazy?
Foxie!
Foxie, you’re free!
Foxie!
Foxie, you’re free!
What’s going on?
She broke out the seal?
Wang Lu.
You still believe I’m Ling, the inn owner?
Idiot!
There’s no such thing
as sealing me in Ling’s body.
There’s never
a seal in my body.
Hai,
what does she mean?
Lu,
Feng Ling is the Nine-tail fox.
You’re right.
After I left Yuntai Mountain,
I assembled a demon army
to negotiate with the Five Sects.
However,
before the negotiation even started,
we were slaughtered by practicers headed
by Shengjing Sect.
For my kind who died,
I avenged by blood.
In the end,
I came to Lingjian Mountain
and encountered the old fool, Feng Yin.
He was just a little more powerful than me.
And I was battling all the way there.
I was worn out.
He took advantage of it
and performed the seal.
We just want to live a normal life.
What’s wrong with it?
Why do you human have to drive us out?
Unexpectedly,
my body shrank into
a baby girl.
Probably some magic
performed by Xue Boren.
Hope you’ll never
use the gift I give you.
Just a small slip,
and I became your leaders’ daughter,
Lingxi Inn’s owner,
Feng Ling.
Now you get it.
Decades ago,
Lingjian Sect slaughtered my kinds.
Now, I’ll let you sacrifice
for the blood shed by them.
Are you all right?
Ling, wake up.
I know this is not you.
Shut up!
I know exactly who I am.
I don’t need you to tell me.
We’ve been friends for decades.
You don’t remember?
Wicked woman!
I don’t give a toss.
Master!
Lu.
Wang Lu.
Are you all right?
I saw you cheated each other before.
Don’t pretend to be a caring disciple.
You think I don’t know
what kind of relationship you have?
Losers!
Stop!
Ling.
You can’t just deny
you two have been besties for decades.
If you kill her today,
are you sure you’ll feel not a bit sad
but only the joy of the revenge?
Foxie!
Don’t let him fool you.
Yes.
I won’t regret it.
For 30 years,
I played the games with you.
I had enough of the mad woman
and of the old fool’s torture.
As to you,
you’re just a powerless boy.
How dare you point your fingers
at the mighty Nine-tail fox?
They who know nothing fear nothing.
Well,
as you wish,
you can die together.
Enough of your hypocrisy.
Today,
you all are going to pay by your blood.
Be careful!
