Episode 7 Lin Chung Shelters from the Snowstorm in the Deity Temple

Which one of you is the new prisoner

It's me

Come here, and I'll see you clearly

How long have you been here

I just arrived yesterday

It's you that brought me here and arranged my residence

Sir, you forgot it

Oh. What's your name

Lin Chung

What crime did you commit

I was the former Trainer of 800, 000 imperial guards in Eastern Capital

For offending Chief Minister Gao

Why do you beat me

You wretched exile you still make a show of authority

How dare you not bow when you see me

But call yourself the Trainer all the time

There's no any Trainer of 800, 000 imperial guards

People here are all prisoners You know that

There are rules in this prison

Keep your eyes wide open

Be smart

and be conscious

I'll talk to you several days later

Don't stand still here Go, go away

Hurry UP

Lin Chung

You want me

I have something to tell you, Jailer

Please sit down

Now you can speak out

I was new here and didn't know the rules

I think I must have troubled you a lot

These silver are small gifts

Please don't despise it

If I don't do things properly

May I trouble you to remind me about it

The silver is just for me

Yes

In addition, here are another ten tael of silver for the Warden

I would like to pay a visit to him but I'm afraid I can't find the right time

It would be very impolite

May I trouble you to deliver them to him

Ok

I was in bad mood these days

You don't care for the incident happened this morning

No, I won't

I know you did it for my good

In addition, I have practiced martial arts since I was young

Though my skills are not good I'm able to endure several beatings

I can endure not only one punch or two

but ten punches or more

You deserved to be the Trainer of the imperial guards

You are truly a splendid fellow

Though you have to suffer this I'm sure you'll take over in future

I'm entirely depend on your kindness

You can rest assured

Wait a moment, sir

I have two letters here

They are from Lord Chai

One is written to Cangzhou Prefect

The other is for the Warden

May I trouble you to deliver these

Oh, Trainer Lin

You should have told me earlier

Letters from Lord Chai is more valuable than silver

Ok. With these two letters

everything will go smoothly

I will deliver them for you

But you must cope with one thing

and cheat the eyes of all people

It will be ok from then on

What's it

Here's a rule

The first Emperor of Song has bequeathed to us the ancient regulation

One hundred blows must be administered to new every prisoner

Tomorrow the Warden will send you to be registered

You tell him you've been sick since the journey

Postpone the beating

I'll speak up for you

The Warden won't beat you since he received the letter and the silver

He will just give some remarks

How terrible are the hundred blows

If he's strung, he has to stay in bed for more than ten days

If he's not strung, when he's beaten for one hundred blows

He is dying

Thanks. I will treat you a drink if the one hundred blows are excused

Masters, the dishes are ready

I toast to you and thank you for excusing me from one hundred blows

Please. Please

Please, sir

This is for taking the rack from my neck

Let me fill it

Trainer Lin, you're over-courteous

The Warden is very kind

From now on, you are a prisoner and we are the keepers

In private, we are brothers

We will help you if you need help

I know something about your case

Lord Chai told me about the injustice in the letter

I will help you for Lord Chai's sake

Trainer Lin, one will experience some adversities in his life

You have to endure them when needed

Things will become different years later

You have excellent skills

It's possible that you will take over sooner or later

Ok, sit down

We'll talk over the drink

With these words by the Warden

You'll stay here without troubles

Right

Many thanks for your kindness

I'm so grateful for it

Master, bad news

Things went wrung, master

Urgent! What

People from Chief Minister's Residence are looking for you in the temple

Someone must have told that you have saved Trainer Lin

What shall we do What shall we do

Alas

Master, Master

Master, what are you doing

I'm going to leave here

But where can you go

Any place

After I leave here no trouble will come to the temple

The Abbot and monks here won't be involved in this trouble

Master, Master

My leaving will let Gao Qiu and Master Gao go off slightly

I can't revenge myself on him

In that case, please don't go away, master

Don't leave here, ok

I'd better leave here If anything happens here

The monks will be in trouble and I'm sorry for Abbot Zhizhen

If you must leave here then let's leave here together

I will find a proper residence first Then you come to find me

Hold it

I have no time to bid farewell to Lin Chang's wife

Give these silver to Lin Chang's wife

And tell her to take good care of herself

Master

Don't weep. I'm not going to die

Stay here and wait for my good news

I'll keep my promise

I will tell you when I find a residence

Be careful. Don't make yourself be killed

Yes, master

Master, Master

I can't punish Chief Minister Gao but I can fool Young Master Gao

Do you hear me

Yes

You two want to have a drink

Three or four jugs of good wine and several kilos of meat

When our guests come serve everything good

You will treat someone

Wait

I must trouble you to invite our guests

Who do you want to treat

Apart from prisoners there are keepers in the prison

I wonder if there are some important people here

Go to invite the Warden and the Jailer here

If they ask

you just tell them we are from Chief Minister's Residence in Eastern Capital

We have something important to discuss with them

You should not say a single word more. Remember

Just rest assured You will get more perks

Yes, I know it

Lord Chai sent you money and clothes

You have money to buy wines and clothes to keep warm

Among prisoners in the prison you are the luckiest one

But you are always so worried

I can't understand

I can't understand either

I worked hard for our country

But I became a prisoner overnight

Staying in the prison I can't go home

I can't do anything

What I can do is to drink and sigh

I have no way to practice my skills or fulfill my ambition

Trainer Lin, as a saying goes Fate is as uncertain as the weather

You have to learn to look on the bright side of things

Take the wine

Sir Jailer. Jailer

What

I have to tell you something

You just wait outside

Trainer Lin, I have to go now We will chat some other day

You are back

Where are they

They went to the inside room

Please come in

Please sit down

We haven't met before May I ask your name, sir

I have a letter from Chief Minister's Residence, you'll know it in a while

Let's have some wines then I'll tell you

Sit down please

Barman, wine. Ok

Barman

We have important issues to discuss

Bring us the barrel, we can hot it

You needn't come unless we call you

Yes, sir

Give me the barrel

Here you are

We came here for a prisoner named Lin Chung

Read this letter first

Bring the money here

What about the matter, sirs

That matter is not difficult for you

It's not difficult to kill him But it's troublesome if people knows it

It depends on your skills

You have to kill him without anyone knowing it

Or I can't report to Chief Minister Gao

You know the importance of doing the matter properly

Let's drink the wine

I have an idea

We send him to another place

And it's your task to kill him

It is easier said than done

We four can't defeat him

even four more persons

There is a fodder depot 15 miles away outside the city's east gate

I will ask him to guard the depot

You set on a fire when he's asleep at midnight

I'm sure we can kill him without any clue

Ok, I agree with you

Spare me, please I've heard nothing

Stand up

If you leak out any information. I will kill you

Yes, I know

Spare me, lord. Spare me

You are homesick again

I'm afraid I have no home to think about

Here is a good job

I want to know if you like it

What's it

There's a fodder depot 15 miles away outside the city's east gate

An old soldier is in charge But he is too old

The Warden is so kind that he leaves this job for you

Asked you to do this job

What you do is to receive and allocate the fodder once a month

You can even make some money from the job

You don't worry that I will escape from the prison

Since we want to employ you we will not doubt you

We leave it to you because of Lord Chai's prestige and our friendship

If we don't trust you we won't ask you to do the job

Thanks for your kindness I will take the job

I like the job

When shall I go to the depot

Take it easy

I will take you there and help you take over

I will call you then

Now I will go back to prepare for the job

Barman, a bowl of wine

Trainer Lin

ls your business good these days

Yes. Yes

Trainer Lin, I haven't seen you here for a long time

That's true. And I'll come here fewer times

Why)'

Bring wines for Trainer Lin, madam

Yes, I'm coming

Tell you the truth The Jailer told me this morning

The Warden asked me to manage the fodder depot

So I can't come here as usual

I mean, this fodder

It's managed by a old soldier before never heard a prisoner can charge it

Oh, because the Warden and Jailer are doing me a favor

they gave me such a good job

I'm in good mood today, come on

Let's have the wine together

I will pay for the wine

No, I don't drink

Drink several bowls with me

When guests come you go to serve them

Let's drink

Good wine

Trainer Lin

It's indeed a good job But the fodder depot is remote

Remote? I like remote places because they are quiet

Trainer Lin. Barman

I'm a prisoner now. A prisoner

Not a trainer. Don't call me trainer any more

Trainer Lin. No. I mean

There's only you in the fodder depot

Only me? Great

I can eat when I'm hungry and sleep when I'm full

Trainer Lin

I'm afraid he will be drunk and cause troubles

Yes, she's worried about me

A true man, just a cup of wine Nothing will be in trouble

You can rest assured

I won't ask your husband to drink more

Come on

Just one bowl, and no more

Trainer Lin, you must take care of yourself there

Keep one eye open when you are sleeping

You're so kind. I remember it

Let's drink

Your wife don't allow you to drink another bowl

I won't force you

It doesn't matter

Could you prepare some catties of beef for me

Trainer Lin

The depot is free from people Tigers always come to hurt people

I know. Go to prepare the beef

Yes

This way

Come here to warm yourself

No, thanks

This is the one who'll replace you

Hand over to him and come with me to the prison

What

Go back to the prison

These are the keys

Give them to him

Well. Here you are Follow me and look around

Keys

These are the depots

With official stamps on it

You can check them one by one

There's no need

It's ok. Go there to have a look. Ok

Those haystacks are all numbered

There are altogether seventy two stacks You can count them by yourself

No, there's no need

Then nothing to hand over

The key to the gate is also among these keys

Have you finished

Yes

I'll give you my gourd bottle

If you want to buy wine, there's a small market two miles away in the east

Ok, we have to go now

Thanks a lot

Trainer Lin, the fodder depot is for you to take charge

See you later

Good bye

Nice snow

Excellent skills

Lord deity, though you're a god you are exiled here

and got no attention like me

When I buy some wines I will burn incense for you

and hope it will bring you good luck

Who will come to buy wine in such a heavy storm

No storm can cut the road

Go to open the door

Come in please

How heavy the snow is

Where are you from, sir

The gourd bottle belongs to the old soldier in the fodder depot

Yes

I replaced him so the bottle is mine

Sit down please. It's cold

Warm yourself and drink some wines

Ok

Your wine, sir. Enjoy yourself

Please, sir. Thanks

Pack up more beef and fill my bottle with wine

It's late. I'll go back to enjoy them

Sir, the beef is ready

Than ks

Please come again

Ah, madam

Help! Help

Now, you can rest assured

Lin Chung can't escape from the fire even he has wings

Let's go to the temple and take a break

No, I will stay here until the fire is dead

Open your eyes wide

Perhaps Lin Chung will come out from the fire

I set fire to the stacks around the depot

He can't escape

Then You can report it to Chief Minister Gao with his body

Right

Don't worry. Even if Lin Chung escapes from the depot

He'll be sentenced to death since the fodder depot is burned

Thanks for your good idea

Damned beasts

Lin Chung

Lu Qian, we were friend for many years Why do you want to destroy me

I was forced to do this I'll be in trouble if I didn't do it

I chose to serve Chief Minister Gao

Come on, Lin Chung

If you won't kill me, I'll kill you

You treacherous knave

When you first arrived in Eastern Capital you stayed in the street like a dog

Why didn't you want to destroy me at that time

It's me that helped you because we are countrymen

I recommended you to Chief Minister's Residence be a Captain

But you come back to betray me

You injured me again and again

as long as I live in the world

There's no such a treacherous wretch in the world like you

I'm terribly sorry Brother. I'm a wretch

I beg you to spare me this time

Brother, kill me

I'll repay your kindness in the afterlife

kill me now

I don't like killing and don't want to kill people

You forced me to kill you

Thanks to deity

I didn't die in this adversity

I had no way but to kill those wretches

I offer sacrifice to you with this head
