Kill them all!
Kill them no matter what!
Burn them!
What are you doing?
Release us!
Don't waste your strength.
We've just inhaled some kind of anesthetic,
we are not strong enough now.
I fear that in the next three to five hours we would still not recuperate.
How is Xie Xiao doing now?
No problem, he would be fine.
You should worry about your little life instead.
Sir, I think they look like
they are going to take our skins.
Patriarch.
What are you looking at?
Keep looking and I will pull out your eyes.
You are really bad omens.
Bad omens?
We can't keep these two alive.
Great Master Lan,
You see, what should we do with them?
Don't worry,
I will do the exorcism ceremony now.
Thank you so much, Great Master.
The Earth and the Sky.
Tarnished by the demonic vibes.
Remain you thus throughout the night.
And be thou flesh by dawn's fair light.
The almighty gods of the eight directions
Follow my commands.
The magical weapons hear me
and announce to the world.
Gan Luo Da Na Through the darkness.
Destroy all the evilness.
Be the blessing to human kind.
Follow my command!
This...
It works!
Destroy!
Are you all crazy?
Please don't worry.
The bad omen has been restrained.
Please stand up.
We can be at peace with it now.
Stand up, please!
Great Master Lan, I think
we should kill these two.
You can't do that crazy thing!
There are still laws in this world.
You can't abuse lynching!
You are the bad omens of Shi's Clan.
You must be executed.
We have to eradicate the threats.
What are you saying?
I don't understand.
What bad omens?
Why did you listen to him?
He is a fraud!
This old man, I think you better let us go,
we have to talk firstly.
Patriarch Shi, don't do that!
These two bad omens,
you can't let them go that easily.
That's right!
Is that so?
Don't let them go!
Right!
Don't do it.
Patriarch.
Great Master Lan, what do you think?
You can't.
It's like this, the bad omens inside these two,
I had used the nature's power to subdue them.
They are normal people now.
If you kill them,
I'm afraid that the gods will be angry.
They will punish you.
What should we do now?
We can't kill them, that's for sure.
But their identities are doubtful.
They had trespassed into this village.
Patriarch, I think you should lock them up,
and wait for the gods' decision.
Okay.
Guys.
Yes!
Lock these two in the wood storage room.
Yes Sir!
You bloody fraud!
Don't touch me, are you mad?
Shut up, you're so noisy!
You crazy people!
All thanks to you, Great Master.
This is for the work before, Er...
Your remuneration.
Please accept it, Great Master.
Patriarch, Exorcism is my duty,
if you had said it like that.
Don't be strangers.
Let's go!
That's right
What I had discussed with Patriarch before...
You fraud!
Please think more about it.
Our Shi clan has been here for many generations.
It's been more than 2000 years.
Now you want my clan to move to other place,
please, Great Master, we need more time to consider it.
It's okay.
It's all depends on your decision.
Please, this way.
How is that?
I found one mark here, but I couldn't figure out
any clear direction.
So, what should we do now?
What has happened to them?
It's all because of my incapacity,
please don't worry.
They'll be okay.
Have you ever heard of
the village on top of this mountain?
In the world map of Yangzhou,
I have never seen this village.
Sir, those Japanese pirates are strange.
Disappeared right in this village,
not even a footprint remained.
There must be something strange about things going wrong.
And those mad men.
How can they be so strong?
They didn't even feel the pain.
Even people who practice Iron Head skill,
still can't be the victors.
And the sound of bamboo flute,
whenever it sounds, they get crazy.
Sir, you see,
is the bamboo flute controlling people?
Everything happened in Longdan,
is still a question.
I'm not so sure about that.
It's cold in here.
Use this mat to cover yourselves.
Thank you, madam.
You're welcome.
Madam, please tell the Patriarch,
we are not bad omens.
We're good guys.
We can prove our innocence.
We are...
My wife is not fine,
I heard that near this place,
there is a kind of herb,
that can heal all your body.
That's why we looked for a guide,
and went to the wrong village.
We were ambushed at the village's gate,
then the Patriarch brought along the villagers,
used anesthetic to find the mad men.
We didn't have time to react.
And we got caught.
I think
you aren't bad guys.
I'm Patriarch's lady,
but when the lives of the civilians are concerned,
this situation, I don't have any way.
I can tell the Patriarch what you said, others,
I can't help you.
Madam,
do you know the person who went with us to the mountain,
what kind of person he is?
I don't know.
So madam, apart from you, in this village
are there any other villagers?
No.
Have you ever met the Japanese?
Japanese?
There are only our villagers here.
Mom.
Xiaoxin.
I have told you,
you can't run around that carelessly.
Father would punish you.
Go.
My wife doesn't feel fine.
Sir.
Why did you tell her that we're spouses?
If we didn't tell them our true identity as governors,
it would be like the time we spend in the troup.
We can play the brother and sister card.
Healing the wife,
the person who can risks his life to gather the herb for his wife,
will earn the sympathy.
It better than being brother and sister.
You're so cunning.
You're so thoughtful.
Sir.
Don't move.
I'm tired.
Let me lean against you.
I've got the money,
eating and drinking, at night I'll leave.
Good liquor.
Roasted chicken.
Beautiful women.
Kid, who let you in?
Why didn't you knock the door?
This room belongs to our Longdan Village.
Why can't I come in?
You,
small body, but speak so certainly.
I'm the important guest that your father invited.
You're so disrespectful to me.
Don't you scare that your father will spank you?
I will not let you tell my father.
I will still tell him.
Let's go, go with me to find your father.
Aren't you a bonze?
My father said,
you bonze can't drink liquor and eat meat.
I'll tell people that you're a fraud!
I'll tell them that you stole the chicken.
And I'll tell my father.
That one,
we won't go.
You see.
You haven't gone out of Longdan Village right?
How do you know?
Of course I know.
We exorcists,
we can't drink liquor and eat meat.
Does that mean we're old men?
Those inhuman rules are removed.
Really?
That's right.
Our ancestors said,
meat and liquor goes to your stomach,
you just have to worship the gods.
We can find the religion everywhere,
I'm just a little exorcist with a grateful heart.
So, let it be like this.
Come here now.
I
Will invite you to share the chicken with me.
Because we're good brothers.
Take it.
But...
No buts,
this roasted chicken, is our secret cure,
people in this village can't eat it.
Take it.
You tell me the stories of the world outside.
I can do it.
But today we ate the chicken...
Rest assured, this is our secret.
Good brother!
You have good intention, keep your promise!
Here.
Sister Shangguan, Shang...
You've been drunk all the way here.
Don't drink too much.
Are you my mother?
You're drunk!
Stop drinking, Sister Shangguan.
Give it back!
Watch out!
You... You're drunk.
I'll bring you home.
Junior brother.
Where are you?
Don't worry.
He'll be okay.
I know, Senior sister.
You don't like a little boy like me.
It must be my father, and your father doing.
I can't ruin your life.
You really don't know
or you're just pretending to do so?
Why does everybody see my feeling for you
but you don't know anything?
I...
Xie Xiao,
what should I do with you?
One person...
It's hard for only one person to bear it.
No problem, no matter what happens,
I'll be here always.
You are not him.
You can't replace him.
You're not him.
You can't replace him.
Don't move.
I've almost loosen the knot.
Let's go.
You great heroes, lowly me have just passed by,
I won't disturb you.
I won't.
Who's done it?
No, no please.
Great hero, help me, help.
You fraud!
You almost got us killed!
Sir, let it go.
Let him be by himself.
Don't!
I can't do anything on my own.
Sir, please help me.
I swear, I won't trick people anymore.
I can let you go.
But you have to
tell me everything you know about this village.
I will, I will.
I'll tell you everything.
Pull me up, please!
It's so high! I'm scared of height!
You scared me to death.
You destroy this bridge?
It wasn't me!
I'm not stupid!
Why did I do that?
To end my own life?
What are you doing here then?
I want to leave.
Leave?
That's right.
You!
Stop hitting me!
Don't waste your time on him.
Tell me, those abnormal men,
and the bad lucks that the villagers kept talking about.
What does that mean?
Say it.
This village...
The Shi clan has been in hiding for years.
Half a year ago,
there suddenly strange things happened in this village.
This place,
there were people who suffered from strange disease.
You would feel not so well inside,
then transfrom into a strong man!
And beating anybody they see.
Many people died and injured.
They don't have another way.
That's why they chase everybody out.
Those with the disease will have to leave.
Why did that happen?
I don't know!
They've been seeking for the healers,
but still can't solve anything.
They thought people had been possessed.
So, they invited me to do the exorcism ceremony.
That's why you told them
it was because of the wrath of gods.
I just said it without thinking.
You just said it?
We almost lost our lives!
You!
I really wanted to save you two.
It was because of you, in front of them
said I was a fraud!
So I let you see what I can do.
Stop talking!
You're speaking nonsense.
Whenever you open your mouth, people get into trouble.
Bad omens, huh?
You're the bad omen one.
Okay okay, stop hitting me!
I was wrong, okay?
Fair enough?
But I'm still kind enough to tell you about what happened.
I said all the truth.
This village is full of killing intent.
There will be bloody tragedy in the future.
Bloody tragedy?
Don't you think that I'm a heartless man.
I'm also a serious man.
I'd looked everywhere I could.
This place has thick killing intent.
It's not far in the future.
If not for the broken bridge,
I would leave this place for ages ago.
You are scared of people revealing your tricks.
That why you couldn't go, right?
I...
Where is that disaster?
That disaster...
I base on Yin-yang and
geomantic trigrams to calculate it.
From the image of the hexagrams
this place really suffered from bad lucks.
You still dare to speak out those nonsense?
I'm not!
How long have you been here?
More than a month.
Have you ever seen
other people apart from the villagers?
Apart from Shi clan,
I haven't seen anybody else.
Oh, right, recently, just recently,
I thought that I'd already taken the reward.
What should be left behind, you left it.
It was unexpected, I'd just reached the gate
and many men in black came out of nowhere.
Sneaked into the forest.
Curiosity kills the cat,
I followed them.
Suddenly, just as I got into it,
those men in black came out.
They held those long swords.
If not for my cleverness, then...
Where did you meet them?
At the back of the forest.
Oh right.
At that time, in their hands, they had someone.
Who?
I just said "someone".
How could I know?
Maybe it was Xie Xiao?
Who?
Take us.
No, no, please!
That forest is dangerous!
It's almost dawn.
We should wait till the morning.
I won't go! I don't want to!
Nothing's left.
So we don't have any way to know if that was Xie Xiao or not.
Sir, maybe that brat saw us
following him, so he intendedly destroy the bridge.
He didn't want to let us go?
It would be even more interesting.
I don't feel interested at all.
What is that?
So scary!
We should leave, right?
When you tricked people,
why didn't you choose the name Lan the coward?
Great Master Lan,
where are those crazy abnormal guys?
Normally, they are scatter around here.
You said you've been living here for a month.
You should be familiar with this place's topographic.
So do you know about other way out?
I don't know everything, you see.
Don't think about dodging the question.
If you didn't lead us to find the way out,
I would tell everybody that you lied.
You think they would trust you?
They are now worshipping me blindly.
Just by those silly tricks of yours?
You can only trick those uneducated men.
As for tricking me?
The magic that day
you'd already used your fingers to predict the weather.
It was intentionally, right?
Say it!
Do you have any other trick?
Try them all, now.
I'll ruin them.
Okay.
It's morning now.
If the villagers find out that we're not there anymore,
they'll surely come up with a way to bring us back.
Hurry up, will you?
Find the way down the mountain.
I couldn't convince you guys, did I?
Stop talking already, show the way.
Okay okay, follow me.
So your gang's brats don't dare to go into the water.
This many?
Xie Xiao, you okay?
Jinxia,
I'm doing fine, so glad you guy's come.
Please bless me to be able to over come this.
Yueer.
Father, your medicine is ready.
Those three,
you don't have any information of them?
Yes, father.
We've looked at every nook and cranny near the reed marshes.
And we still couldn't find them.
If I had known this sooner,
I would have stopped them.
I'm so worried.
Father.
Please, don't think too much about it and care for your legs.
Sir Lu is a master at martial arts.
Xie Xiao too.
Those two will protect Jinxia.
Everything will be okay.
Hope so.
Childe,
they've found out the Longdan village.
Having knowledge about a village is not worrisome.
Have they found out anything strange?
It's unclear.
They went along with the people of big master.
If they knew about us...
You go inform him.
Tell him to be alert.
Now we can't do anything suspicious.
What should be dealed with, deal it.
Yes Sir.
Liar Lan, why didn't you use that powder sooner?
Yes, you, you, you,
What powder? That's anesthetic.
It's expensive.
You want money or you life?
I want... I, I only have so little left.
Of course I have to store it
for important occasions.
You're injured.
It's okay.
Just a scratch, I can't die from it.
I thought I couldn't see you again.
If I can't marry you. | Look at him!
I won't be able to rest in peace.
What nonsense are you talking about?
This injury of yours is quite deep.
I'll help you bind it.
It's okay, just a small scratch.
You don't have to do that.
Here.
Sure.
Beat him, beat him!
Beat him, do it!
Stop!
Run!
Stand up, Xie Yuanyuan.
Your face is swollen.
Ouch!
Your hands, too!
Don't move, I'll help you.
Xie Yuanyuan, do you know?
Old sailors know how to do the knot when sailing over sea,
they use this method.
My mother taught me.
Normal people can't do that.
You should fight back.
You always embarrassing me.
If you don't want people to be mean to you,
you should be scarier than them.
If not,
bear down on them with your weight of Mount Taishan.
You're so fat, they won't be able to get up.
I'm not fat!
Okay, okay, don't cry.
I will teach you how to
use the rubber gun, okay?
Really?
Done!
Yuan big prawn, do you remember is knot?
Of course!
I always did that for you.
Even bound your head.
Into this giant bow.
Okay, don't waste time anymore.
We can't stay in this place.
Yes, that's right.
Why are you so hurried?
Can't you see that Jinxia and I are talking?
Great Master Lan,
is there any place near here
that we can hide in?
Let me think about it.
You liar!
You didn't even leave a mark behind?
You say it or not?
Oh, I remember!
There is a small wooden hut over there.
I've just spotted it recently.
I'll take you guys there.
Here we go.
Sir.
We can stay here for the night.
You and Great Master Lan clean up the room.
I'll go find something to eat.
Liar Lan, let's go.
Clean the room, go!
What are you doing?
You, follow me.
I don't want to.
I'm injured.
You just said that this injury
is nothing to you.
So?
You're hurt now?
Jinxia, what do you want to eat?
Chicken or rabbit?
I'll go hunt them for you.
Wild Chicken.
Okay!
Ah, no.
It's not certain that you can hunt them.
Just pick up some fruit.
Quickly.
Okay, you wait.
Why are you so fast now?
Do you know where is the chicken?
Of course.
Where?
Behind this hut.
Sir Lu, you can't see me
being close to Jinxia, right?
That's why you asked me to help.
You're overthinking it.
Lu.
I really can't feel familiar to it,
the way you tell Jinxia to do things for you.
She is my inferior,
she has to do everything I ask her.
What I still make young master Xie angry?
I have known her for over ten years,
her problems are mine.
Oh, I remember.
If I'm not wrong,
young master Xie has just been denied of marriage right?
I think this unashamed character of yours
is your strength.
You!
You guys are back!
Xie Yuanyuan, you're so great!
You can do what you said you would.
What's wrong? I'm complimenting you!
It wasn't me.
Oh, so that Sir's doing.
I've told you so.
See, this chicken is not bleeding too much.
It was killed immediately.
It didn't do anything wrong.
Sir, great skill.
Okay.
Stop flattering him.
We're all hungry now.
Sir, I'll prepare the meal.
You only have to wait.
It was just a chicken.
Is anything interesting about it?
I'll hunt an even bigger one tomorrow.
Okay.
So we'll wait for young master Xie
to bring back a bigger chicken.
I'll see.
Jinxia, I'll help you to prepare the chicken.
These two men are competing with each other.
Very similar to females.
We'll have chicken tomorrow.
Here.
Thanks.
Sir, please eat firstly.
Your tearing technique is awesome.
Where did you learn that from?
Don't give him this chicken thigh again.
Thanks.
Oh right, heroine,
I don't know your names.
Let's introduce.
I forgot, I'll do it.
My family name is Yuan, the name is Jinxia.
This one is Lu Yi.
This one is Xie Xiao.
How about you?
My family name is Lan,
the name
is Qingxuan.
Oh right, this,
I have to tell you something.
I've always wanted to ask but not feel comfortable to do so.
Just ask.
I see that you always call Childe Lu as Sir.
You're governors?
At this point I'll tell you,
we're really from the government.
We are looking into a case.
Oh, that's why.
What?
That's why even if miss Yuan is still young.
You're so awesome now.
And smart.
You've overdone it.
Compare to you, I'm nothing.
The same.
Oh yeah, Xie Xiao.
How did you escape last night?
Oh so you remember me now?
Last night...
Jinxia!
Fortunately I was fast enough.
If not, it would be too dangerous.
At that time, there was a strong wind.
It pushed me, made me shake like a leaf.
At that time,
I only had one thought to motivate myself.
That thought, is you, Jinxia.
Come back to the story!
After that I easily climbed up.
They chased me all the way.
Even into the forest.
Then they forced me to jump down into the water.
What happened next you already known.
Mister, your life is long.
If you say that,
you've been chased by those mad men all night?
Those good for nothing crazy men.
They couldn't catch you.
Who said that?
It was because I'm so awesome!
Moreover, I found something really unusual.
Unusual?
They forced me to jump into the water right?
Can you guess?
What?
After I fell into it,
they didn't hit me anymore.
After you fell into it, they didn't beat you again?
Yes.
Those mad men.
Will not fight against each other.
But if they were really mad,
they wouldn't be able to distinguish friends and enemies.
That's right.
It's strange.
Base on the current matter,
we'll have to organize.
Firstly, if this is really a disease,
and the villagers continue to catch it,
but this disease characteristic
is unusual violence without thinking,
don't fear of life and death,
the disease that we temporarily call Mad men.
Secondly,
these mad men will not fight against each other,
they just do it to the normal people.
Thirdly, like Xie Xiao said,
after falling into the water,
they couldn't spot him.
There was also the sound of flute.
I suspect that they're under control.
Maybe that's right.
But that flute, does it actually affect them?
We still not find out the result.
Base on what little we have now,
the first matter,
is how these people distinguish friends and enemies?
According to the information Xie Xiao just provided,
these men do it through the smell
to distinguish friends, not the eyes.
Smell?
There are many animals
using smell to distinguish there peers.
Directions, leaders, loved ones.
So, after Xie Xiao jumped into water,
these mad men stopped hitting him immediately.
Just coming out of it,
everybody will be the enemies.
So, water covered Xie Xiao's smell.
And stopped their attack.
So,
they don't fight each other,
because of the smell.
What smell actually?
This is really a bizarre disease.
I've never heard of it before.
I've been travelling from south to north,
but don't see it either.
What more bizarre
in this village,
there are not only people of Shi Clan,
but also others.
The Shi Clan people,
don't know about what happen.
The Japanese Pirates
After we came there,
we haven't seen them again.
Now all the evidence is cut.
This matter can't be that simple.
Wait, wait.
Japanese Pirates.
Japanese Pirates what?
Those sneaky men I bumped into last night?
My god.
I've just not come back to the fortress for a few days,
and the Japanese Pirates have already been to Yangzhou?
Those bastards.
Killed the people of my gang.
They're hiding somewhere.
They made us unable to escape.
I think those unusual mad men
are related to these Japanese Pirates.
Of course they are.
Think about it.
He destroyed the ladder,
it's because he doesn't want to let us go.
Say it like that, if we don't solve this matter,
we'll die here?
