=Love Beyond the Grave=
(Adapted from the novel by Li Qingran)

00:01:41,260 --> 00:01:43,980
=Episode 7=

3
00:01:52,750 --> 00:01:53,863
Let me change your dressing.

4
00:01:54,390 --> 00:01:55,230
Only a minor wound.

5
00:01:55,750 --> 00:01:56,860
I don't need tending.

6
00:01:58,060 --> 00:01:58,900
Wan,

7
00:01:59,340 --> 00:02:00,390
go get some rest first.

8
00:02:04,220 --> 00:02:05,140
Then I'll head back.

9
00:02:05,910 --> 00:02:07,190
Stay at Lin Mansion these days

10
00:02:07,190 --> 00:02:08,030
to heal your wounds.

11
00:02:08,180 --> 00:02:09,620
Commandant Xia and I are at camp.

12
00:02:09,620 --> 00:02:10,460
Don't worry.

13
00:02:44,230 --> 00:02:45,230
I've already seen

14
00:02:45,230 --> 00:02:46,270
all of you before.

15
00:02:47,420 --> 00:02:48,740
Even if you're dressed,

16
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:50,620
it won't restore your honor anyway.

17
00:02:51,230 --> 00:02:52,230
No need to care

18
00:02:52,993 --> 00:02:53,899
about the mortal form.

19
00:03:03,790 --> 00:03:05,550
Your Grace, I didn't know you'd come.

20
00:03:05,990 --> 00:03:06,830
Sorry.

21
00:03:11,990 --> 00:03:13,510
When did you, Meng Wan,

22
00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:15,950
and Xia Qingsheng first meet?

23
00:03:19,620 --> 00:03:21,180
After I returned to Nandu from Daizhou,

24
00:03:21,950 --> 00:03:23,550
we studied under Academician Yang.

25
00:03:24,860 --> 00:03:25,720
That was all

26
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:26,790
after you turned 18.

27
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:29,510
How is it that every friend

28
00:03:29,790 --> 00:03:30,630
and teacher you name

29
00:03:31,020 --> 00:03:32,270
came into your life after that?

30
00:03:33,390 --> 00:03:34,950
What were you doing before you were 18?

31
00:03:35,830 --> 00:03:37,990
The master blinded by a goose

32
00:03:38,390 --> 00:03:39,270
was your teacher

33
00:03:39,270 --> 00:03:40,350
before 18, wasn't he?

34
00:03:41,110 --> 00:03:42,420
Was the amnesiac Han Lingqiu

35
00:03:43,230 --> 00:03:44,790
your friend before you were 18?

36
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:54,540
My master

37
00:03:55,550 --> 00:03:56,900
was from before I turned 18,

38
00:03:57,790 --> 00:03:58,670
but Han was not.

39
00:03:59,740 --> 00:04:01,020
I had no friends before I was 18.

40
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:11,830
Who are you, really?

41
00:04:12,020 --> 00:04:12,860
Duan Xu.

42
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:18,260
Duan Shunxi.

43
00:04:25,550 --> 00:04:26,550
Your Grace,

44
00:04:27,470 --> 00:04:28,310
please…

45
00:04:28,590 --> 00:04:29,670
Please show mercy.

46
00:04:35,940 --> 00:04:37,260
Your martial arts are superb.

47
00:04:38,180 --> 00:04:39,420
Why not struggle?

48
00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:41,070
Why not resist?

49
00:04:43,230 --> 00:04:44,710
Before absolute power,

50
00:04:46,860 --> 00:04:47,990
skill means nothing.

51
00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:51,420
I can't defeat you.

52
00:04:53,060 --> 00:04:54,060
Other than begging,

53
00:04:54,060 --> 00:04:54,910
I have no other way.

54
00:05:01,060 --> 00:05:02,710
What if I don't spare you?

55
00:05:07,030 --> 00:05:07,940
You wish

56
00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:11,030
to keep my skull, right?

57
00:05:12,260 --> 00:05:13,790
When I reach 50,

58
00:05:14,820 --> 00:05:16,300
my skull will look even finer.

59
00:05:17,550 --> 00:05:18,860
Why not wait a while

60
00:05:20,110 --> 00:05:21,180
until I turn 50

61
00:05:21,180 --> 00:05:22,020
and devour me then?

62
00:05:24,030 --> 00:05:25,230
I won't harm you.

63
00:05:35,030 --> 00:05:36,670
I want to make a deal with you.

64
00:05:56,110 --> 00:05:57,470
I'm listening.

65
00:05:58,940 --> 00:06:00,380
The deal is simple.

66
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:02,300
I will grant

67
00:06:02,300 --> 00:06:03,380
one of your wishes.

68
00:06:04,380 --> 00:06:05,470
In return,

69
00:06:05,940 --> 00:06:07,740
you will lend me your five senses.

70
00:06:08,990 --> 00:06:10,060
One wish,

71
00:06:10,590 --> 00:06:11,590
one sense.

72
00:06:13,470 --> 00:06:14,310
For ten days.

73
00:06:20,030 --> 00:06:21,030
During those ten days,

74
00:06:22,420 --> 00:06:23,790
I will lose that sense.

75
00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:25,390
That's right.

76
00:06:26,350 --> 00:06:27,500
This is the limit

77
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:28,820
a mortal body can bear.

78
00:06:30,470 --> 00:06:31,710
After ten days,

79
00:06:32,180 --> 00:06:33,260
I will return your senses

80
00:06:33,260 --> 00:06:34,100
to you.

81
00:06:34,940 --> 00:06:36,180
Once you recover,

82
00:06:36,710 --> 00:06:38,470
we begin the next exchange.

83
00:06:39,590 --> 00:06:40,670
That means

84
00:06:41,590 --> 00:06:43,300
you may ask many wishes of me,

85
00:06:44,670 --> 00:06:46,230
but wishes have their limits.

86
00:06:46,940 --> 00:06:48,306
They can't alter the mortal world.

87
00:06:49,300 --> 00:06:50,140
For example,

88
00:06:51,350 --> 00:06:52,620
you may wish for me

89
00:06:52,990 --> 00:06:54,590
to save your life in battle,

90
00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:56,470
but you may not wish

91
00:06:56,740 --> 00:06:58,500
for me to win the war for you.

92
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:07,500
What if I do not agree?

93
00:07:37,180 --> 00:07:38,500
We have come this far already.

94
00:07:38,990 --> 00:07:40,590
You no longer get to refuse.

95
00:07:53,910 --> 00:07:55,500
Must we speak in this position?

96
00:08:01,740 --> 00:08:02,670
What is wrong with it?

97
00:08:05,710 --> 00:08:08,180
You are not light;

98
00:08:09,590 --> 00:08:10,430
you are quite cold.

99
00:08:12,060 --> 00:08:12,900
General,

100
00:08:13,820 --> 00:08:16,180
I fetched this medicine

101
00:08:17,620 --> 00:08:18,460
for you.

102
00:08:21,820 --> 00:08:22,660
I...

103
00:08:58,310 --> 00:08:59,150
Commandant Xia.

104
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:04,550
Where are you going?

105
00:09:05,230 --> 00:09:06,070
I made some food.

106
00:09:06,070 --> 00:09:06,920
I'm taking it to Xu.

107
00:09:08,710 --> 00:09:10,230
I just saw the General.

108
00:09:10,700 --> 00:09:11,540
He's not hungry.

109
00:09:11,550 --> 00:09:12,500
No need for this.

110
00:09:13,830 --> 00:09:15,430
And you would know if he is hungry?

111
00:09:15,950 --> 00:09:16,790
Xu has gone all day

112
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:17,900
without one hot bite.

113
00:09:18,110 --> 00:09:19,430
Move. Or it'll go cold soon.

114
00:09:21,900 --> 00:09:23,270
What are you doing? Xia...

115
00:09:23,780 --> 00:09:24,620
This wasn't for you.

116
00:09:33,500 --> 00:09:34,430
Fine.

117
00:09:34,430 --> 00:09:35,270
Xia Qingsheng,

118
00:09:35,860 --> 00:09:36,700
just you wait.

119
00:09:50,110 --> 00:09:50,950
Miss He,

120
00:09:52,370 --> 00:09:53,230
you and the General

121
00:09:53,230 --> 00:09:54,470
have really ruined me.

122
00:09:59,710 --> 00:10:00,590
Your Grace,

123
00:10:01,430 --> 00:10:03,016
is this your first trade for the senses?

124
00:10:05,990 --> 00:10:07,020
It's a trifling matter.

125
00:10:07,710 --> 00:10:08,950
I paid it no mind.

126
00:10:12,780 --> 00:10:13,830
So, you admit it.

127
00:10:15,230 --> 00:10:16,660
You came near me

128
00:10:16,660 --> 00:10:17,540
for the Deliverance.

129
00:10:18,590 --> 00:10:19,430
I believe

130
00:10:19,590 --> 00:10:20,830
the one who can trade with you

131
00:10:21,660 --> 00:10:22,990
must be the Deliverance's master.

132
00:10:25,710 --> 00:10:26,683
When the old man gave me

133
00:10:26,950 --> 00:10:27,950
the sword, he said

134
00:10:28,380 --> 00:10:29,220
the Deliverance

135
00:10:29,350 --> 00:10:30,470
had no master for 300 years.

136
00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:32,270
By that reckoning,

137
00:10:32,590 --> 00:10:33,740
I am the fated one

138
00:10:34,260 --> 00:10:35,350
you waited

139
00:10:35,350 --> 00:10:36,190
for 300 years for.

140
00:10:36,710 --> 00:10:38,230
Just a pastime on my rest day.

141
00:10:38,500 --> 00:10:39,590
Don't flatter yourself.

142
00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:40,990
How many years have you lived

143
00:10:41,660 --> 00:10:42,740
without the five senses?

144
00:10:43,230 --> 00:10:44,710
We don't need such things.

145
00:10:45,540 --> 00:10:46,830
What a pity, then.

146
00:10:47,900 --> 00:10:48,740
Nothing to pity.

147
00:10:49,690 --> 00:10:50,752
Those are only the cravings

148
00:10:50,763 --> 00:10:52,020
of you mortals.

149
00:10:54,140 --> 00:10:55,380
I mean myself.

150
00:10:56,470 --> 00:10:57,380
I've thought about it,

151
00:10:57,900 --> 00:10:58,740
yet I can't think

152
00:10:58,740 --> 00:10:59,950
of a single wish.

153
00:11:01,830 --> 00:11:02,710
Your Grace,

154
00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:05,950
I never make wishes.

155
00:11:09,380 --> 00:11:10,260
For hundreds of years,

156
00:11:11,950 --> 00:11:13,780
I've dealt with countless mortals,

157
00:11:14,230 --> 00:11:15,260
yet never have I heard one

158
00:11:15,260 --> 00:11:16,260
truly say,

159
00:11:16,710 --> 00:11:17,550
"No need."

160
00:11:17,900 --> 00:11:19,070
"I have lived well"

161
00:11:19,590 --> 00:11:20,620
"and can rest in peace."

162
00:11:20,620 --> 00:11:21,860
"I want nothing at all."

163
00:11:22,260 --> 00:11:23,260
No exception.

164
00:11:24,590 --> 00:11:25,740
Let alone you.

165
00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:32,500
I never ask others

166
00:11:34,470 --> 00:11:35,950
to grant my desires.

167
00:11:39,350 --> 00:11:40,860
Had I not saved you today,

168
00:11:41,430 --> 00:11:43,070
you'd have fallen to the Chong troops.

169
00:11:43,950 --> 00:11:45,500
On the battlefield, life hangs thin.

170
00:11:46,350 --> 00:11:47,860
Are you certain that without my aid,

171
00:11:48,380 --> 00:11:49,990
you could escape death every time?

172
00:11:51,310 --> 00:11:52,150
No matter what,

173
00:11:54,260 --> 00:11:55,620
thank you for today.

174
00:12:02,540 --> 00:12:03,590
General,

175
00:12:04,470 --> 00:12:06,070
you are too young.

176
00:12:06,620 --> 00:12:08,660
You must know fate is ever-shifting,

177
00:12:09,230 --> 00:12:10,620
beyond any mortal's grasp.

178
00:12:11,950 --> 00:12:12,990
Fate is ever-shifting,

179
00:12:14,380 --> 00:12:15,500
but so am I.

180
00:12:19,780 --> 00:12:20,660
Was the look yesterday

181
00:12:21,020 --> 00:12:22,230
your true form?

182
00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:24,430
I remember your robes

183
00:12:24,590 --> 00:12:25,543
were exquisitely ornate,

184
00:12:26,020 --> 00:12:26,860
unlike the mortals'.

185
00:12:27,230 --> 00:12:28,780
If you're curious,

186
00:12:29,380 --> 00:12:31,140
go dig up a few tombs
from 400 years ago.

187
00:12:31,140 --> 00:12:32,070
You'll see enough.

188
00:12:32,660 --> 00:12:33,900
So, you're 400 years old?

189
00:13:17,020 --> 00:13:17,860
You're reluctant

190
00:13:17,860 --> 00:13:19,110
to see me go, right?

191
00:13:19,710 --> 00:13:20,860
So, I won't leave.

192
00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:24,950
I'll sleep here tonight.

193
00:13:28,620 --> 00:13:29,590
Come on, then.

194
00:13:33,590 --> 00:13:34,830
I'll be unable

195
00:13:35,070 --> 00:13:36,070
to sleep again.

196
00:13:44,660 --> 00:13:45,620
Shall I share my pillow

197
00:13:45,620 --> 00:13:46,460
with you?

198
00:13:47,230 --> 00:13:48,310
In the dead of night,

199
00:13:48,310 --> 00:13:50,310
with a spirit lying in your bed,

200
00:13:50,990 --> 00:13:52,110
aren't you afraid?

201
00:13:53,070 --> 00:13:55,020
I do feed on people, you know.

202
00:14:00,590 --> 00:14:01,540
We fight over land,

203
00:14:02,056 --> 00:14:03,349
till the dead blanket the fields.

204
00:14:04,900 --> 00:14:05,740
We fight over cities,

205
00:14:06,590 --> 00:14:07,850
till the dead fill every street.

206
00:14:08,540 --> 00:14:10,660
We seize land at the cost of the living.

207
00:14:12,070 --> 00:14:12,950
By that measure,

208
00:14:14,470 --> 00:14:15,470
we're of the same trade.

209
00:14:39,020 --> 00:14:40,350
And you said you couldn't sleep.

210
00:14:41,260 --> 00:14:42,260
Foxy,

211
00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:44,350
not a word from you is true.

212
00:14:49,430 --> 00:14:50,780
But looking at you now,

213
00:14:51,430 --> 00:14:52,780
I don't think you're so clever.

214
00:14:54,740 --> 00:14:55,950
More like a rabbit.

215
00:15:19,660 --> 00:15:20,500
Han.

216
00:15:23,950 --> 00:15:24,790
Han,

217
00:15:25,020 --> 00:15:26,500
what on earth is going on?

218
00:15:27,470 --> 00:15:28,620
The General locked me up.

219
00:15:29,500 --> 00:15:30,660
I don't know what's going on.

220
00:15:33,950 --> 00:15:34,790
Han,

221
00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:35,950
I know.

222
00:15:36,140 --> 00:15:37,540
You must be innocent.

223
00:15:37,860 --> 00:15:38,740
If it's hard for you

224
00:15:38,740 --> 00:15:40,500
to say certain things,

225
00:15:40,500 --> 00:15:41,350
tell me instead.

226
00:15:41,350 --> 00:15:42,950
I'll plead with the General.

227
00:15:43,780 --> 00:15:44,980
The innocent need no defense.

228
00:15:45,470 --> 00:15:46,310
I trust the General.

229
00:15:47,230 --> 00:15:48,470
He will clear my name.

230
00:15:53,140 --> 00:15:53,980
Han,

231
00:15:54,350 --> 00:15:55,190
rest easy.

232
00:15:55,740 --> 00:15:57,310
With me here,

233
00:15:57,900 --> 00:15:59,230
I won't let you suffer this wrong.

234
00:16:14,860 --> 00:16:15,700
Xiaoxiao,

235
00:16:16,230 --> 00:16:17,110
yesterday, the General

236
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:17,970
brought grain back

237
00:16:17,990 --> 00:16:19,160
and distributed it again.

238
00:16:19,860 --> 00:16:21,740
We're not short of food here.

239
00:16:24,500 --> 00:16:25,740
Best to be prepared.

240
00:16:27,110 --> 00:16:28,070
But Xiaoxiao,

241
00:16:28,230 --> 00:16:29,110
don't worry.

242
00:16:29,110 --> 00:16:30,380
Lin told me

243
00:16:30,900 --> 00:16:32,620
that as long as we stay here,

244
00:16:32,830 --> 00:16:34,310
we will not go short of food.

245
00:16:34,540 --> 00:16:35,380
You seem

246
00:16:35,380 --> 00:16:36,500
to be close to everyone.

247
00:16:37,540 --> 00:16:38,380
You like him?

248
00:16:39,780 --> 00:16:40,780
Of course.

249
00:16:41,900 --> 00:16:42,740
Lin is

250
00:16:42,900 --> 00:16:44,310
kind to everyone.

251
00:16:44,710 --> 00:16:46,310
He also helped the General a lot,

252
00:16:46,710 --> 00:16:47,990
procuring and distributing grain.

253
00:16:48,350 --> 00:16:49,430
Besides the General,

254
00:16:49,430 --> 00:16:50,830
he is everyone's hero too.

255
00:16:52,590 --> 00:16:53,430
Xiaoxiao,

256
00:16:54,070 --> 00:16:55,710
you always eat so little.

257
00:16:56,860 --> 00:16:58,950
I know you can't bear to eat more,

258
00:16:59,430 --> 00:17:01,260
because you save the best for me.

259
00:17:02,380 --> 00:17:04,540
You even fainted from hunger before.

260
00:17:06,150 --> 00:17:07,260
But Xiaoxiao,

261
00:17:07,820 --> 00:17:09,580
we have enough grain now.

262
00:17:09,910 --> 00:17:11,470
You needn't starve yourself anymore.

263
00:17:11,470 --> 00:17:12,310
Young Master.

264
00:17:13,150 --> 00:17:14,780
Young Master, this is bad.

265
00:17:14,910 --> 00:17:16,412
(Ultimate Joy)
The master was caught

266
00:17:16,423 --> 00:17:17,523
and brought below the city.

267
00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:18,510
Young Master.

268
00:17:19,190 --> 00:17:20,030
Let's go.

269
00:17:21,230 --> 00:17:22,070
Xiaoxiao,

270
00:17:22,870 --> 00:17:23,870
do you think Lin

271
00:17:23,870 --> 00:17:24,710
might be in danger?

272
00:17:25,190 --> 00:17:26,030
You want to go see?

273
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:41,940
Uncle.

274
00:17:42,630 --> 00:17:43,580
- Uncle.
- Mr. Lin.

275
00:17:43,580 --> 00:17:44,900
- Mr. Lin.
- Uncle.

276
00:17:46,710 --> 00:17:47,630
Master Lin.

277
00:17:48,780 --> 00:17:49,910
Talk with the ones

278
00:17:49,910 --> 00:17:50,990
on the wall.

279
00:17:51,780 --> 00:17:52,710
They are

280
00:17:52,710 --> 00:17:53,740
your family.

281
00:17:56,260 --> 00:17:59,300
(Lin Huaide, main branch)

282
00:17:59,300 --> 00:18:00,140
Jun.

283
00:18:01,500 --> 00:18:02,340
I'm here.

284
00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:04,390
Have you received the provisions?

285
00:18:05,230 --> 00:18:06,070
They're here.

286
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:09,190
Is it enough?

287
00:18:10,430 --> 00:18:11,270
Yes.

288
00:18:12,670 --> 00:18:13,710
Thanks, Mr. Lin.

289
00:18:19,390 --> 00:18:20,230
Jun.

290
00:18:21,740 --> 00:18:22,740
Your grandfather

291
00:18:23,670 --> 00:18:25,230
was once a general of Great Liang.

292
00:18:26,870 --> 00:18:28,780
He fell in Yunzhou and never returned.

293
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:31,020
Your grandmother

294
00:18:32,950 --> 00:18:34,670
would not flee south
of the Guanhe River.

295
00:18:36,950 --> 00:18:37,790
Because of that,

296
00:18:38,390 --> 00:18:39,780
your father was born.

297
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:41,580
He stayed in Shuozhou

298
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:44,230
and built up this family estate.

299
00:18:46,190 --> 00:18:47,100
All these years,

300
00:18:47,710 --> 00:18:49,630
we've bowed to the Chong people.

301
00:18:50,390 --> 00:18:51,470
But you must remember

302
00:18:51,950 --> 00:18:52,790
whose hands

303
00:18:53,190 --> 00:18:54,710
claimed your forebears.

304
00:18:55,870 --> 00:18:56,990
Your grandmother once said,

305
00:18:58,100 --> 00:18:59,260
"If one day"

306
00:18:59,950 --> 00:19:00,790
"Great Liang"

307
00:19:01,100 --> 00:19:03,230
"crosses the Guanhe River
to reclaim the land,"

308
00:19:03,870 --> 00:19:06,150
"though we're merchants,"

309
00:19:06,300 --> 00:19:07,740
"we will give all our strength"

310
00:19:08,100 --> 00:19:09,540
"and never shrink from death."

311
00:19:09,540 --> 00:19:10,380
No!

312
00:19:15,470 --> 00:19:17,100
Jun, listen carefully.

313
00:19:18,870 --> 00:19:21,630
Hold on at all costs.

314
00:19:23,150 --> 00:19:24,340
I came to see you today

315
00:19:25,100 --> 00:19:26,540
to tell you this:

316
00:19:27,670 --> 00:19:28,510
I'm going

317
00:19:29,870 --> 00:19:32,020
to answer to your grandfather.

318
00:19:33,500 --> 00:19:34,710
I will tell him

319
00:19:35,540 --> 00:19:37,780
our clan didn't fail him.

320
00:19:39,060 --> 00:19:39,990
Jun,

321
00:19:40,820 --> 00:19:42,670
you didn't fail him.

322
00:19:43,710 --> 00:19:44,950
One day, surely,

323
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:48,060
the land will return,

324
00:19:55,990 --> 00:19:57,820
bringing back the golden age.

325
00:19:59,990 --> 00:20:01,060
No!

326
00:20:18,780 --> 00:20:19,620
Kill them.

327
00:20:46,150 --> 00:20:47,020
My father

328
00:20:47,580 --> 00:20:49,630
was slain the same way.

329
00:20:50,780 --> 00:20:51,990
He was unarmed,

330
00:20:52,780 --> 00:20:54,710
cut down like livestock.

331
00:21:04,430 --> 00:21:05,470
General Duan,

332
00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:09,500
was it worth it to trade

333
00:21:09,950 --> 00:21:11,670
23 lives of the Lin clan

334
00:21:12,780 --> 00:21:13,870
for these carts of grain?

335
00:21:15,740 --> 00:21:16,780
Soon, I will take

336
00:21:16,780 --> 00:21:18,340
your head

337
00:21:18,820 --> 00:21:20,540
to console the 23 souls

338
00:21:20,540 --> 00:21:21,470
of the Lin clan above.

339
00:21:32,670 --> 00:21:33,510
Withdraw the troops.

340
00:21:33,950 --> 00:21:34,790
Yes.

341
00:22:24,660 --> 00:22:30,940
(Chongde Chamber)

342
00:22:38,870 --> 00:22:39,710
Young Master,

343
00:22:40,390 --> 00:22:41,870
you've eaten nothing

344
00:22:42,060 --> 00:22:42,990
since yesterday.

345
00:22:43,470 --> 00:22:44,820
The dead can't return.

346
00:22:44,900 --> 00:22:46,226
(Memorial Tablet of Master Huaide)

347
00:22:46,237 --> 00:22:47,190
Master Huaide

348
00:22:48,020 --> 00:22:49,630
would not wish to see this.

349
00:22:53,700 --> 00:22:57,740
(Memorial)

350
00:23:17,580 --> 00:23:18,420
Mr. Lin,

351
00:23:20,950 --> 00:23:21,950
my condolences.

352
00:23:21,950 --> 00:23:24,220
(Memorial Tablet of Master Huaide)

353
00:23:24,670 --> 00:23:25,870
Shuozhou is in grave peril now.

354
00:23:27,990 --> 00:23:29,300
I still need your support.

355
00:23:30,470 --> 00:23:31,710
For the sake of the whole city,

356
00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:33,870
you must pull yourself together soon.

357
00:23:35,670 --> 00:23:36,510
Mr. Lin,

358
00:23:37,190 --> 00:23:38,300
I've failed the Lin clan.

359
00:23:43,910 --> 00:23:45,430
General, do not blame yourself.

360
00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:49,630
All men must die one day.

361
00:23:52,500 --> 00:23:53,430
Uncle

362
00:23:55,580 --> 00:23:57,710
was only betrayed by traitors.

363
00:23:59,910 --> 00:24:00,750
Please rest assured.

364
00:24:02,670 --> 00:24:03,670
I've sent men to recover

365
00:24:03,670 --> 00:24:05,020
all the remains

366
00:24:05,910 --> 00:24:07,020
for burial.

367
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:24,630
I heard your father died young.

368
00:24:27,990 --> 00:24:29,580
Your uncle cared for you

369
00:24:32,740 --> 00:24:34,020
as if he were your own father.

370
00:24:37,340 --> 00:24:38,820
I know the Lin clan has suffered,

371
00:24:40,710 --> 00:24:41,710
and your heart is heavy.

372
00:24:42,910 --> 00:24:44,190
But right now,

373
00:24:44,190 --> 00:24:45,060
I need your help.

374
00:24:47,710 --> 00:24:48,550
Please agree.

375
00:24:50,340 --> 00:24:51,230
What is it?

376
00:24:51,710 --> 00:24:53,340
It concerns the spy who tipped off

377
00:24:54,340 --> 00:24:55,230
the Chong Army

378
00:24:55,230 --> 00:24:56,390
and got your uncle killed.

379
00:24:57,630 --> 00:24:58,950
But I heard

380
00:24:59,740 --> 00:25:01,260
you've had Captain Han…

381
00:25:01,260 --> 00:25:02,150
I've locked up

382
00:25:02,150 --> 00:25:02,990
Han Lingqiu.

383
00:25:04,020 --> 00:25:05,060
Han Lingqiu

384
00:25:05,060 --> 00:25:06,190
is from North Chong.

385
00:25:06,910 --> 00:25:08,060
He claims he lost his memory,

386
00:25:09,710 --> 00:25:10,870
but too much does not add up.

387
00:25:13,630 --> 00:25:14,470
He lost his memory?

388
00:25:15,390 --> 00:25:16,260
His martial arts style

389
00:25:16,260 --> 00:25:17,470
resembles the Chong people's.

390
00:25:19,540 --> 00:25:20,380
I suspect

391
00:25:21,910 --> 00:25:23,540
he is a spy sent by the Chong Army.

392
00:25:24,670 --> 00:25:25,910
I wish to hold a martial contest

393
00:25:27,540 --> 00:25:28,780
to test his true skills.

394
00:25:29,300 --> 00:25:30,300
I heard you're also

395
00:25:31,710 --> 00:25:32,990
fond of martial arts

396
00:25:34,500 --> 00:25:36,390
and have several skilled guests at home.

397
00:25:37,230 --> 00:25:38,190
May I ask them

398
00:25:38,190 --> 00:25:39,030
to come as well

399
00:25:39,670 --> 00:25:40,950
and face Han Lingqiu in a match?

400
00:25:42,390 --> 00:25:43,230
General,

401
00:25:44,430 --> 00:25:45,540
I am but a humble merchant.

402
00:25:47,470 --> 00:25:48,470
Why entrust the contest

403
00:25:49,710 --> 00:25:51,190
to me?

404
00:25:57,670 --> 00:25:58,870
The Lin clan is loyal.

405
00:26:00,390 --> 00:26:01,670
In the whole army now,

406
00:26:02,150 --> 00:26:03,300
the one I trust most

407
00:26:06,260 --> 00:26:07,470
is only you.

408
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:15,430
Leave it to me.

409
00:26:25,060 --> 00:26:26,390
The General wants me to fight?

410
00:26:26,910 --> 00:26:27,820
I must win,

411
00:26:28,230 --> 00:26:29,500
yet preserve my strength,

412
00:26:30,190 --> 00:26:31,870
and not reveal it unless forced.

413
00:26:32,150 --> 00:26:32,990
Why?

414
00:26:33,580 --> 00:26:35,260
The General's order is just that.

415
00:26:35,710 --> 00:26:36,820
Are you willing to obey?

416
00:26:41,620 --> 00:26:49,260
(Zhang Mansion)

417
00:27:00,470 --> 00:27:01,310
Are you there?

418
00:27:07,390 --> 00:27:08,300
You've arranged

419
00:27:08,300 --> 00:27:09,340
everything already.

420
00:27:12,190 --> 00:27:13,030
So, you knew it all?

421
00:27:14,670 --> 00:27:16,060
I had guessed most of it.

422
00:27:18,820 --> 00:27:19,950
When this round is over,

423
00:27:21,230 --> 00:27:22,580
we'll see how much you can guess.

424
00:27:24,780 --> 00:27:26,190
You scramble for power and gain

425
00:27:26,190 --> 00:27:27,950
with the same old routine.

426
00:27:28,820 --> 00:27:30,060
I am long tired of watching it.

427
00:27:34,580 --> 00:27:35,540
Tomorrow's show

428
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:37,670
is more than a hunt for spies.

429
00:27:39,300 --> 00:27:40,710
Your Grace, do be patient,

430
00:27:40,877 --> 00:27:42,037
and watch until the very end.

431
00:27:43,710 --> 00:27:45,100
I will not disappoint you.

432
00:27:46,670 --> 00:27:47,910
Then I'll wait and see.

433
00:27:49,870 --> 00:27:51,260
Do not let me down.

434
00:28:05,780 --> 00:28:09,060
(Liang)

435
00:28:21,230 --> 00:28:22,910
The martial contest begins.

436
00:28:23,580 --> 00:28:25,300
Contestants, enter the arena.

437
00:28:34,780 --> 00:28:36,580
(Wu Junyi, Han Lingqiu)

438
00:28:46,670 --> 00:28:49,150
Captain Han Lingqiu wins.

439
00:28:49,150 --> 00:28:50,060
(Sun Xiu, Han Lingqiu)

440
00:28:50,060 --> 00:28:50,900
(Liang)

441
00:29:04,670 --> 00:29:06,710
Next contestant, enter the arena.

442
00:29:09,860 --> 00:29:11,540
(Ge Tian, Han Lingqiu)

443
00:29:15,100 --> 00:29:16,199
(Zhou Yi'ang, Han Lingqiu)

444
00:29:17,220 --> 00:29:18,162
(Wang Shuo, Han Lingqiu)

445
00:29:18,173 --> 00:29:20,223
Next contestant, enter the arena.

446
00:29:21,860 --> 00:29:23,180
(Lin Mo, Han Lingqiu)

447
00:29:25,780 --> 00:29:26,715
(Han Sheng, Han Lingqiu)

448
00:29:26,726 --> 00:29:28,870
Captain Han Lingqiu wins.

449
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:36,260
Han,

450
00:29:36,260 --> 00:29:37,100
make your move.

451
00:29:38,390 --> 00:29:39,230
General,

452
00:29:39,710 --> 00:29:40,550
if this keeps up,

453
00:29:41,150 --> 00:29:42,870
we won't see Captain Han's skill.

454
00:29:46,060 --> 00:29:47,300
I've heard that there is

455
00:29:48,100 --> 00:29:49,230
a blindfolded contest

456
00:29:49,230 --> 00:29:50,070
in the Jianghu.

457
00:29:50,340 --> 00:29:52,150
Both sides must judge the position

458
00:29:52,150 --> 00:29:53,156
by the sound of the wind.

459
00:29:53,340 --> 00:29:55,060
It best shows one's martial arts.

460
00:30:04,670 --> 00:30:05,510
Very well.

461
00:30:05,950 --> 00:30:06,790
Anyway,

462
00:30:06,790 --> 00:30:07,910
no winner is clear now.

463
00:30:08,630 --> 00:30:09,470
Let's do it.

464
00:30:09,470 --> 00:30:11,470
Captain Han Lingqiu wins.

465
00:30:11,470 --> 00:30:12,310
Steward,

466
00:30:13,300 --> 00:30:14,500
prepare cloth for blindfolds.

467
00:30:14,710 --> 00:30:15,550
Yes.

468
00:30:18,020 --> 00:30:19,340
The match is suspended.

469
00:31:52,300 --> 00:31:54,230
Captain Han Lingqiu wins.

470
00:31:54,230 --> 00:31:55,740
Han is that skilled?

471
00:31:56,140 --> 00:31:56,990
What a surprise.

472
00:31:56,990 --> 00:31:57,910
How is it that I

473
00:31:57,910 --> 00:31:58,950
never knew this before?

474
00:32:08,820 --> 00:32:09,660
Everyone,

475
00:32:10,390 --> 00:32:11,990
during our time in Shuozhou,

476
00:32:14,670 --> 00:32:15,820
Miss He's carriage

477
00:32:15,820 --> 00:32:16,780
was attacked,

478
00:32:18,630 --> 00:32:20,020
and the provisions were burned.

479
00:32:21,780 --> 00:32:22,746
While seizing the grain,

480
00:32:24,580 --> 00:32:25,430
we ran into an ambush,

481
00:32:26,870 --> 00:32:28,390
and Master Huaide was betrayed.

482
00:32:30,100 --> 00:32:31,950
All these incidents point to one thing:

483
00:32:32,540 --> 00:32:33,710
There is a Chong spy

484
00:32:35,020 --> 00:32:36,470
among us.

485
00:32:36,990 --> 00:32:38,820
Could it really be Captain Han?

486
00:32:39,190 --> 00:32:40,340
I never knew his skills

487
00:32:40,340 --> 00:32:41,190
were this formidable.

488
00:32:42,670 --> 00:32:43,510
Only today

489
00:32:45,340 --> 00:32:46,540
have I finally confirmed

490
00:32:46,910 --> 00:32:48,060
who that spy truly is.

491
00:32:49,540 --> 00:32:50,380
Who is it?

492
00:32:51,670 --> 00:32:52,510
What is going on?

493
00:32:53,300 --> 00:32:54,300
It can't be Captain Han.

494
00:32:54,540 --> 00:32:55,380
Captain Han?

495
00:33:06,910 --> 00:33:07,750
Mr. Lin,

496
00:33:08,990 --> 00:33:09,830
what do you say?

497
00:33:13,910 --> 00:33:14,990
Perhaps I should ask you

498
00:33:16,150 --> 00:33:17,820
where you've hidden

499
00:33:18,230 --> 00:33:19,350
the real Lin Jun

500
00:33:19,361 --> 00:33:20,634
since we entered the inner city?

501
00:33:20,910 --> 00:33:22,540
Is this not Lin Jun, Mr. Lin?

502
00:33:22,540 --> 00:33:23,380
Yes.

503
00:33:25,780 --> 00:33:26,620
What does that mean?

504
00:33:31,250 --> 00:33:32,150
What does that mean?

505
00:33:32,150 --> 00:33:32,990
General,

506
00:33:33,470 --> 00:33:34,500
what do you mean by that?

507
00:33:35,950 --> 00:33:37,260
You suspect I'm a spy?

508
00:33:37,540 --> 00:33:38,380
It's not suspicion.

509
00:33:39,260 --> 00:33:40,150
I'm certain.

510
00:33:41,300 --> 00:33:42,140
Mr. Lin,

511
00:33:42,340 --> 00:33:43,740
may I borrow a carriage?

512
00:33:44,150 --> 00:33:45,020
You honor me, General.

513
00:33:45,630 --> 00:33:46,710
It's a small matter.

514
00:33:47,190 --> 00:33:48,710
Miss He's carriage was attacked.

515
00:33:49,470 --> 00:33:50,710
Han Lingqiu was riding with her.

516
00:33:51,150 --> 00:33:52,630
But the carriage was yours.

517
00:33:53,150 --> 00:33:53,990
General Duan,

518
00:33:54,150 --> 00:33:55,580
may I ease the Tabai Army's burden?

519
00:33:56,670 --> 00:33:57,630
I'll send half my men

520
00:33:58,190 --> 00:33:59,230
to guard the granary.

521
00:33:59,470 --> 00:34:00,540
Thank you, Mr. Lin.

522
00:34:01,260 --> 00:34:02,150
You know

523
00:34:02,740 --> 00:34:03,580
the granary defenses,

524
00:34:04,100 --> 00:34:05,630
the time of the grain raid,

525
00:34:06,260 --> 00:34:07,500
and letters from Master Huaide.

526
00:34:08,310 --> 00:34:09,870
When the Chong people send grain here,

527
00:34:10,710 --> 00:34:11,580
they must pass through

528
00:34:11,580 --> 00:34:12,830
several northern cities.

529
00:34:13,790 --> 00:34:15,500
Our clan has kin in the north.

530
00:34:16,220 --> 00:34:17,500
I sent carrier pigeons to them

531
00:34:17,990 --> 00:34:19,500
to track the grain convoy.

532
00:34:21,660 --> 00:34:23,220
And what does that prove?

533
00:34:31,020 --> 00:34:32,060
I truly did not know

534
00:34:32,990 --> 00:34:34,470
the All-Knowing's Blindfolded Trial

535
00:34:35,100 --> 00:34:36,500
was a rule of jianghu.

536
00:34:40,060 --> 00:34:41,020
Master Fifteen.

537
00:34:44,700 --> 00:34:45,540
Don't come over.

538
00:34:45,830 --> 00:34:46,670
Or I'll end him.

539
00:34:48,100 --> 00:34:49,020
Lin,

540
00:34:49,350 --> 00:34:51,270
I always took you for a real man.

541
00:34:51,270 --> 00:34:52,270
Your uncle

542
00:34:52,270 --> 00:34:53,750
met a grim end below the city wall.

543
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:55,140
I even felt

544
00:34:55,140 --> 00:34:56,500
I had wronged the Lin clan.

545
00:34:56,500 --> 00:34:57,390
Who would've thought

546
00:34:57,950 --> 00:35:00,060
you were the one who sold him out?

547
00:35:00,060 --> 00:35:01,310
He isn't Lin Jun.

548
00:35:02,180 --> 00:35:03,140
He was only in disguise.

549
00:35:03,620 --> 00:35:04,580
So, the man he sold out

550
00:35:04,830 --> 00:35:05,910
wasn't his own uncle.

551
00:35:06,220 --> 00:35:07,060
That's right.

552
00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:09,060
I am the real Lin Jun.

553
00:35:11,580 --> 00:35:12,620
He seized me

554
00:35:13,830 --> 00:35:15,180
and copied my every move.

555
00:35:15,830 --> 00:35:17,220
He deceived every one of you.

556
00:35:17,500 --> 00:35:18,540
Perfect timing.

557
00:35:21,380 --> 00:35:22,220
I had thought

558
00:35:22,220 --> 00:35:23,540
Lin was a good man.

559
00:35:25,910 --> 00:35:27,350
But I saw him yesterday.

560
00:35:28,060 --> 00:35:28,900
Lin…

561
00:35:46,950 --> 00:35:48,020
I told Xiaoxiao

562
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:48,860
about this matter.

563
00:35:49,100 --> 00:35:50,270
She told me

564
00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:52,540
to bring the real Lin here today.

565
00:35:52,950 --> 00:35:54,060
You cur!

566
00:35:54,580 --> 00:35:55,830
How dare you deceive us!

567
00:35:56,270 --> 00:35:57,580
You are not leaving today.

568
00:35:58,540 --> 00:35:59,500
You've lost your memory?

569
00:35:59,750 --> 00:36:01,220
What does it have

570
00:36:01,390 --> 00:36:02,470
to do with you?

571
00:36:02,700 --> 00:36:03,540
Without your memory,

572
00:36:03,910 --> 00:36:04,910
you'd be forgivable.

573
00:36:06,390 --> 00:36:07,990
You should be my 17th junior brother.

574
00:36:08,390 --> 00:36:09,696
Come back with me to see Mentor.

575
00:36:09,950 --> 00:36:11,100
Stop talking nonsense.

576
00:36:12,100 --> 00:36:13,020
I am Han Lingqiu,

577
00:36:13,660 --> 00:36:15,390
Captain of Great Liang's Tabai Army.

578
00:36:16,180 --> 00:36:17,660
That's my only identity.

579
00:36:18,540 --> 00:36:19,380
Even if I die,

580
00:36:19,390 --> 00:36:20,470
I'll never go with you.

581
00:36:20,790 --> 00:36:21,990
You were once

582
00:36:21,990 --> 00:36:23,100
Mentor's favorite.

583
00:36:23,620 --> 00:36:25,140
Now, you can't tell right from wrong.

584
00:36:26,580 --> 00:36:28,310
Even Captain Han ignores you now.

585
00:36:29,140 --> 00:36:30,270
Surrender without a fight.

586
00:36:30,660 --> 00:36:31,500
Fool.

587
00:36:31,660 --> 00:36:32,870
As long as I have you,

588
00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:34,910
they won't dare make a move.

589
00:36:36,700 --> 00:36:37,540
Get a horse for me.

590
00:36:38,390 --> 00:36:39,230
I'm leaving the city.

591
00:36:43,060 --> 00:36:44,180
Follow my orders.

592
00:36:45,990 --> 00:36:46,830
Get him a horse.

593
00:36:49,020 --> 00:36:49,860
Let him leave.
