A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
EPISODE 41
I have brought you the man.
Thank you, Zhang Jing.
You've lost to me, so you'll have to come with me.
Ms. Murong, please don't fool me.
I'm serious.
Today, it's either you come with me or I'll go with you.
I'm just an uncouth man.
I dare not walk alongside you, Ms. Murong.
Hei Zhizhu, don't go!
I have fully recovered.
I remember you.
All my memories are back.
Listen up!
My name is Murong Jiu.
I don't know you!
End your delusions.
Congratulations.
Ms. Murong.
You are the beloved daughter of the Murong family.
I hope you stay healthy and live a happy life.
Without you, how can I be happy?
I'm Murong Jiu,
but I'm also Ms. Meng.
If it wasn't for you protecting me all the time,
I would have died somewhere a long time ago.
You are a man of few words,
but with you by my side,
I feel so safe.
You know what?
Those days when we lived in the hut by the flower field
were the happiest days of my life.
Ms. Meng!
Remember, my name is Hei Zhizhu.
I'll wait for you.
If I have a choice,
I don't mind losing all the other memories.
I would only wish to remember the memories we have together.
Look, I've washed away the words written here.
I don't need them to remind me anymore.
Those words have been engraved in my mind.
Ms. Meng!
My dear Ms. Meng.
I'm sorry.
I treated you so badly that day.
I know I've hurt the dignity of a swordsman.
I didn't have the courage to come rashly to see you.
I could only come up with this bad idea.
You won't blame me, right?
I won't blame you.
How could I bear to blame you?
Buddy.
I said it could be a good thing, right?
Look at you.
You're so lucky in love.
Since the feeling is mutual,
let me be the matchmaker.
Why don't you get married right here in Mount Gui Town?
I can't take the Murong family's money for nothing.
I'll reserve the best restaurant in town
and invite everyone in the martial arts world
to your wedding banquet to celebrate your marriage.
What do you think?
Do you not agree with the idea?
Yes, I do! I agree!
Look at how excited you are.
How about you, lady?
That's the smile of delight.
I'll take it as a yes.
It's decided then!
That's great.
I'll inform our cousins and ask them to come over quickly.
I've not heard a peep from them for one whole day.
They can't be dead, can they?
I went through the trouble of doing all these things
just so I can witness her death.
I must not miss out on it.
RAT
Wei Wuya, we've been waiting for you for a long time.
What do you want?
Tell us where the exit is.
No one can escape.
Wei Wuya, you better think carefully.
If you open the mechanism and let us out,
I'll beg Master Yaoyue to spare your life.
He actually killed himself.
The members of the Wuya clan
would rather die than be humiliated.
We searched throughout Wuya Palace.
Why can't we find a way out?
Since Wei Wuya had prepared a way out for himself,
we will definitely find it.
This way.
You don't need to search anymore.
I've found it a long time ago.
Where is it?
It's such a small hole.
How can a person fit through it?
We only thought Wei Wuya had prepared a way out for himself,
but we forgot one thing.
The Rabbit from Twelve Zodiac once told me
that Wei Wuya spared his life to learn a skill from him.
That's right.
He learned Body Shrinking Skill.
He can fit himself into the hole,
while we can do nothing, but look at the hole.
Wei Wuya's plan is indeed flawless.
Since we're not going to survive,
then I will kill you first.
It's time to put an end
to the resentment of 18 years ago.
Have you learned face-changing?
We were in the same boat and you suddenly turn hostile now.
Who was in the same boat with you?
Xiaoyu'er!
Yaoyue, are you really going to kill him?
He must die.
Even if he doesn't die in Hua Wuque's hands,
he must die in my hands!
Wait!
I have something to say.
What trickery are you trying now?
Both of us know clearly
that I can never escape from you.
As I'm dying,
can you tell me the truth?
I can promise that after you're dead,
I'll tell her the truth.
Why can't you tell me the truth instead?
Yaoyue.
Keep quiet!
You're such a vicious woman.
I'm going to die, but you still refuse to grant me my last wish.
Fine.
If I request another thing, will you agree to it?
It depends.
I need to pee.
You!
It's urgent!
I drank too much. I can't hold it anymore.
If you don't agree, then I'll have to...
-I'll have to do it here! -How dare you?
Why don't you just let him go?
There's no way out from Wuya Palace.
It's impossible for him to run away.
As the master of Yihua Palace,
can't you even agree with this before killing him?
Hurry up and go.
Hey!
You can come along if you don't trust me.
Only if you don't mind the stink.
Jiang Xiaoyu!
Jiang Xiaoyu, have you died in there?
Jiang Xiaoyu!
He has been in there for so long.
Could it be that he has found another way out?
Does that mean we can escape?
Jiang Xiaoyu.
That brat.
RAT
Jiang Xiaoyu!
-Jiang Xiaoyu! -You've been fooled!
Jiang Xiaoyu, open the door!
Just tell me the truth and I'll let you out.
How dare you threaten me?
Dream on.
Would you rather die together with Wei Wuya
than telling me the truth?
Fine.
After many years, people will find out that
the masters of Yihua Palace who were arrogant and haughty
were actually buried in the same hole as Wei Wuya.
It will become the biggest joke in the martial arts world.
You better think again.
I won't open the door for you unless you tell me the truth!
Let's go.
Who are they to kill me?
At this stage,
why must you still force her to tell you the truth?
What can you do after that?
It'll only give you more trouble.
As you know, between Hua Wuque and I,
one of us will die in the hands of the other.
It's either he kills me or I kill him.
However, I don't believe in a predetermined destiny.
Therefore, only by coercing her into telling me the truth,
I will stand a chance to change the current situation.
However, she can't kill you now.
You can't kill her either.
We will only be...
Hey, Devilish Girl.
Enough.
Stop worrying.
Hua Wuque will surely find a way to save us.
If he could have come, he would have been here already.
Listen to our surroundings.
It's eerily quiet.
There's not a single noise.
Hua Wuque hasn't come to our rescue.
He might have encountered the Ten Great Villains.
There's Jiang Biehe too.
His skills aren't weaker than Hua Wuque either.
He is very cunning too.
Hua Wuque might have fallen for his tricks.
It has been so many days.
I wonder how Xiaoyu'er and the others are doing.
Are they even still alive?
We are their only hope.
We can't give up.
Let's go.
-Let's go. -Check it out.
-What's that? -Go and take a look.
-This is... -"Good news!
Ms. Murong Jiu from the Murong family
and Hei Zhizhu, a swordsman, are getting married.
Hence, from today onward,
their wedding banquet will be held at Restaurant Mount Gui.
They are a perfect match like two flowers growing from the same pedicle.
Everyone is invited to witness their wedding."
-This could be a chance for us. -Let's congratulate them.
-What chance? -A wedding banquet by the Murong family
will be attended by many people.
-Someone who is familiar with mechanisms -Let's go.
might be able to bring us to Wuya Palace.
-You're right. By then, -It looks grand.
we can open whatever kind of door.
Let's rush to Mount Gui Town.
It's so quiet.
It's as if...
we are the only people in the world.
I think it sounds great.
It seems to have been so long
since both the masters of Yihua Palace made any noise.
Could they be...
Let's check on them.
RAT
What's going on?
That's a phenomenon when the practitioner
reaches the ninth level of Pure Jade Skill.
"Pure Jade Skill"?
Yes.
There are nine levels of Pure Jade Skill.
Those who have achieved the seventh and eighth level
will have almost no rival in the world.
Eighteen years ago,
she had already achieved the eighth level.
We thought
that it would only take another three to five months to achieve the ninth level.
However, as years passed by,
her skill remained stagnant and didn't improve at all.
Why did this happen?
We didn't have any distracting thoughts while practicing previously.
However, starting from 18 years ago,
just like other ordinary people, we have had sorrow and distress.
We could no longer focus on our cultivation.
Again, it's 18 years ago.
So many things happened in the year my parents passed away.
Has Master Yaoyue mastered the ninth level now?
Yes.
Surprisingly,
the divine skill that she has been trying to cultivate for the past 18 years
is mastered at such a place under this kind of circumstance.
I'm so happy for her.
I think I did her this favor.
That's right.
It's because you trapped her in here,
she lost all hope of surviving.
In desperation, one's mind will change drastically.
It might happen just in a blink of an eye
that she's suddenly seen things through.
I think she didn't even expect
that she would receive such a surprise reward.
Why didn't you master it?
Yaoyue's martial arts skills are much better than mine.
Furthermore,
my mind is still preoccupied with something.
Unlike my sister,
I can't be totally unruffled by emotion.
I think your sister is the only person who can attain the kung fu skill.
You are not as vicious as her. Just forget about it.
It's pointless to talk about it now.
All of us might die here.
It's just a matter of time.
DOUBLE HAPPINESS
Such a joyous occasion.
It's a joyous occasion.
Yes, it is.
-What a joyous occasion. -Exactly.
There's a saying that a bride looks the prettiest on her wedding day.
That's true.
Yes, Murong Jiu.
You're so pretty today.
Why?
Have you regretted it?
What are you saying?
I feel happy for Hei Zhizhu.
Zhang Jing.
I think you're jealous.
Me?
No way.
No?
Then why are you blushing?
Am I blushing?
What are you doing?
I have fallen in love with you without me knowing.
As long as I can stay with you, I'll be very happy.
You can be really fierce.
But in my eyes, you are the cutest girl in the world.
From today onward, I don't want to address you as Zhang Jing.
You...
Be my Little Fairy, all right?
I didn't know that you're a sweet talker.
What a surprise.
We brought another couple together today.
Good things come in pairs.
Murong Shanshan and Murong Shuang are on their way.
I think they will be here soon.
Murong Jiu.
Besides Shanshan and Murong Shuang, all the other sisters stay too far away.
They can't come to your wedding.
Due to short notice,
not many important people in the martial arts world
and Murong family's friends came.
I'm sorry.
I'm just a nobody in the martial arts world.
I can't give you a splendid wedding.
Why did you say that?
All eight of my sisters are married into reputable families.
Their wedding has to be glamorous.
However, it's just a show for others.
I do not envy them.
I just wish
that after getting married,
we'll stay together, always and forever.
Silly man.
To friends and family members who come from afar,
today is the wedding of my sister, Murong Jiu,
and the swordsman, Hei Zhizhu.
On behalf of the Murong family, I thank you for your attendance.
The newlyweds' bedroom is filled with peace and happiness.
Share a toast and have a harmonious union that lasts forever.
Let's give a toast to congratulate the newlyweds.
Wishing them a long and happy marriage.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
-Congratulations! -Congratulations!
-Wishing you a long and happy marriage! -Wishing you a long and happy marriage!
-Congratulations! -Congratulations!
-Cheers. -Congratulations!
-Congratulations. -Congratulations.
-Everyone. -Cheers.
-Have a seat. -The banquet will last for three days.
-We have prepared the yellow wine. -Cheers.
Drink to your heart's content.
Enjoy yourself to the fullest.
Please forgive us if we have not waited upon you well.
-Don't say that. -Don't say that.
-This way, please. -After you.
-Thank you, Murong family. -Thank you, Murong family.
-That's right. -Thank you, Murong family.
-Let's dig in. -Here.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
-Let's dig in.
Sure.
-Cheers. -What a good wine.
-Cheers. -That's a good wine.
-Cheers. -Cheers to you.
What a happy day.
-Sure. -Yes.
-Congratulations. -Congratulations.
Thank you.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
Let's make another toast!
Cheers!
-Congratulations! -Congratulations!
-Bottoms up! -Finish it!
Go.
-Come on. -Cheers!
Come on, drink up.
-Murong Jiu. -Here.
-Come on, drink up. -Cheers.
Hua Wuque is here to congratulate the Murong Family.
I'm Tie Xinlan.
Nice to meet you.
So it's Mr. Hua from Yihua Palace.
What are you doing here?
I'm here to ask for a favor.
You have great martial arts skills and wisdom.
I'm surprised that you need a favor.
My best friend, Jiang Xiaoyu, is trapped in Wuya Palace in Mount Gui.
It has been so many days.
I hereby beg the Murong family for help to go and rescue them with us.
Where is Wuya Palace?
Why would Jiang Xiaoyu get trapped there?
It's a long story.
Let's rescue them first.
I'll tell you the whole story later, is that all right?
Xiaoyu'er is not a kind person either.
Why should I save him?
You...
Hei Zhizhu and Murong Jiu are Jiang Xiaoyu's best friends.
They won't forgive you if they find out you just stand by when he is in peril.
You're talking nonsense in broad daylight.
Aren't you afraid of getting punished by heaven?
What a lively occasion.
-Cheers. -Are you the Ten Great Villains?
-The Ten Great Villains? -The Ten Great Villains?
The Murong family has seen a great deal indeed.
You have got sharp eyes.
Hua Wuque.
Why are you sowing discord at a wedding banquet?
What's going on?
I've said that Jiang Xiaoyu is trapped in Wuya Palace.
I'm just seeking help to rescue people with me.
How is that sowing discord?
You can say whatever nonsense you want.
If you're trying to coax everyone here to fight against Wuya Palace,
it shows that you're up to no good.
I'm just saying the truth.
I never intended to stir up turmoil.
Fine.
Answer my question.
You claim that Xiaoyu'er is trapped in Wuya Palace.
-Right? -Yes.
You also claim that you're heading to Wuya Palace to rescue Xiaoyu'er.
-Is that right? -Yes.
But you've been hunting down Xiaoyu'er all this while, right?
Say it.
Yes.
Hua Wuque.
Are you going to save Xiaoyu'er
or kill him?
I suspect
there is...
a hidden conspiracy.
You're a bunch of nasty people.
You're just trying to stop us from saving Xiaoyu'er.
Xiaoyu'er was raised by us.
We love him like our own son.
Why would we stop you from rescuing him if he is in peril?
You...
Instead, Hua Wuque would resort to all means just to kill Xiaoyu'er.
Everyone, don't fall into his trap.
You abducted all the masons here for your selfish reasons,
yet you dare to make slanderous accusations against me.
Mr. Hua, it's not that we refuse to help,
but what you said is not convincing.
Hei Zhizhu will believe in me.
Where is the groom?
He is drunk and has gone back to his room.
Why don't I ask him out and let him decide?
Thank you for your help.
Slowly.
I'm Hua Wuque. Do you still remember me?
Hua Wuque?
I know you.
Xiaoyu'er has been trapped in Wuya Palace for days.
We need to rescue him.
Otherwise, it'll be too late.
Hey, say something!
Did you hear what he said?
You know that Xiaoyu'er and I are best friends.
I really want to save him.
-You're talking nonsense. -What's going on?
You're instructed by Master Yaoyue to kill Xiaoyu'er.
-I saw it with my eyes -To kill Xiaoyu'er?
that Xiaoyu'er fought against you.
Later, both of you even decided to go on a duel.
You're drunk. Think carefully.
It's a matter of life and death.
You're talking nonsense.
Don't try to deceive me.
Enough!
Bring him back to his room.
Let's go.
Come with me.
-Hey! -You...
Mr. Hua.
Stop wasting your time.
No one here will believe in you.
Hua Wuque, Tie Xinlan.
This is the wedding banquet held by the Murong family.
Since you're not here to congratulate the newlyweds,
please leave now.
They asked you to leave.
What are you waiting for?
You're so thick-skinned.
Everyone.
It's a matter of life and death. I'm not joking.
Ladies, please believe me.
Anyone, send them off!
Hold on.
I paid for the banquet.
On this happy day,
why aren't you drinking merrily
but creating chaos here instead?
Mr. Xuanyuan.
Hua Wuque?
Evil Gambling Demon.
Do you know him?
Of course.
Evil Gambling Demon.
You know nothing about this.
Keep out of this.
If I know nothing,
no one else in the world knows anything.
Is this Xuanyuan Sanguang who is also known as the Evil Gambling Demon?
That's right.
I bumped into Xiaoyu'er in a cave back then.
Strange enough.
A few disciples of Wei Wuya were there to catch rats too.
There were thousands of rats in there.
I was deeply disgusted.
We were instigated by a scumbag.
Xiaoyu'er and I were attacked by the disciples from Wuya Clan with rats.
Our lives were at stake.
Fortunately,
Hua Wuque got there in time.
He defeated the disciples of Wuya Clan and chased those rats away.
Listen up.
Hua Wuque and Xiaoyu'er are best friends.
Whether the friendship is real or not,
it will show at the crucial point of life and death.
Evil Gambling Demon.
You have no idea.
That brat has already admitted it.
He came to kill Xiaoyu'er.
Xiaoyu'er told me that Hua Wuque is just carrying out the order.
That's not his intention.
It's easy for him to kill Xiaoyu'er.
He doesn't have to wait until now.
Shut your stinky mouth. Keeping quiet won't make you a mute.
Even though he is one of the Ten Great Villains, he has never lied.
He is the matchmaker of Murong Jiu's marriage too.
Hei Zhizhu once told us that Mr. Xuanyuan and Xiaoyu'er are close friends.
Since he is willing to step forward,
it appears that Mr. Hua is not lying.
Right.
Where is Xiaoyu'er? Show me the way.
He is at Wuya Palace on Mount Gui.
All the entrances have been sealed by boulders.
Murong family.
If you still claim yourselves
as the first family in the martial arts world,
you should send out more people to help.
You'll stay back with Little Fairy to entertain our guests.
The others will follow Mr. Hua to Mount Gui to rescue those people.
Yes.
Those who volunteer to help out will be rewarded by the Murong family.
Thanks for the help.
What should we do?
We can't just stand by and watch.
Xiaoyu'er.
So many people want to save you.
Even if you are dead, your death is worthwhile.
I know right.
If I were trapped in there,
let alone people, even dogs wouldn't come and save me.
Why do you still have to create chaos now?
Hua Wuque.
How can you say that?
After all, Xiaoyu'er was raised by us.
You're not the only person who wants to save him.
That's right.
Are you thinking of cutting into the mountain
with just a few helpers?
Even if you work on it day and night,
I think it will take at least half a month to get into the mountain, right?
That way, Xiaoyu'er
-would have become a dried corpse by then. -Hua Wuque.
Don't you need more helpers?
-Hurry up! -All the tools are here.
If you really wish to save Xiaoyu'er,
-hurry up and work on it. -Come on.
Mr. Hua.
-They can't be trusted. -Move this over.
-They must be up to something. -Okay.
No matter what, with more help, they'll have more chances to survive.
Come on.
Move it here.
Here.
I didn't expect you to be so close to Xiaoyu'er.
What's wrong?
Do you think I could only make shabby friends like all of you?
To be frank, all you old geezers are indeed inhuman.
Xiaoyu'er grew up with you,
but none of you worries about his well being.
Instead, all of you wish that he would die in there.
I'm different from them.
I really want to save him,
but his relationship with Yan Nantian...
You're worried that if Xiaoyu'er survives, he would help Yan Nantian seek revenge
on all of you.
Even if Xiaoyu'er does that, we can't blame him.
Jiang Feng and his wife were not murdered by us,
but Yan Nantian...
All of you have indeed mistaken him.
Xiaoyu'er is not an ungrateful person.
If he survives,
he will speak for all of you in front of Yan Nantian.
However, if he really dies in there,
you old geezers will really be doomed.
Hopefully, Xiaoyu'er is still alive.
Stop talking rubbish. Keep chiseling.
Hua Wuque!
Hei Zhizhu, Murong Jiu!
You're finally here.
I'm sorry.
I was drunk the other day. I messed things up.
After we sobered up, we were told the whole story.
I built this type of secret chamber and mechanism.
It's hard to break it manually.
That's why I requested my sisters
to get raw materials from other places to make explosives.
Great. Let's try it out.
-Let's go. -Great, let's go.
-Let's go. -Move!
-Hurry. -Hurry.
Xiaoyu'er!
RAT
WUYA PALACE
-This place is so similar to Yihua Palace. -Xiaoyu'er!
Let's split up.
Hurry!
-Xiaoyu'er! -We're here to save you. Xiaoyu'er!
Xiaoyu'er!
-Where are you? -Xiaoyu'er!
Xiaoyu'er!
-Xiaoyu'er! -Xiaoyu'er!
Xiaoyu'er, where are you?
Xiaoyu'er!
Where are you?
Xiaoyu'er!
RAT
-Xiaoyu'er! -Xiaoyu'er!
Xiaoyu'er!
Where are you?
Xiaoyu'er!
Where are you?
Xiaoyu'er!
Is this wine?
It's wine.
There's still hope.
-Why? -Wine can appease hunger.
With wine, Xiaoyu'er and the others can survive for a longer time.
They won't starve to death.
Xiaoyu'er is very smart.
He won't die so easily.
Stop dreaming.
There is a secret tunnel over here. Let's get down and have a look.
Xiaoyu'er!
Where are you?
Xiaoyu'er!
It's stinky!
Xiaoyu'er!
-Xiaoyu'er! -Xiaoyu'er!
It's Wei Wuya.
It seems he has been dead for a few days.
Xiaoyu'er!
Surprisingly, Xiaoyu'er has been rescued by rats.
"Rescued by rats"?
Those rags that we found at the main hall are ropes made by Xiaoyu'er.
He tied those ropes on rats.
Rats are good at burrowing their way through the ground.
He released the rats into the hole.
If the rats don't come back after some time,
it means the hole leads outside.
I'm sure that Wei Wuya had no idea about this hole.
Can I borrow the sword?
It means Xiaoyu'er is safe now.
I thought
that Jiang Xiaoyu was the smartest person in the world.
Now it seems that
you're on par with him.
If both of you can become sworn brothers,
it would be great.
