Shitou!

23
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,400
Who is this old man? 

24
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,000
Don't know who it is? Then who are you?

25
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,300
Can you play?

26
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,800
Not good. My teacher knows how

27
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,700
No problem, I'll figure it out as I go

Tell me what is the blue sea?

00:04:40,900 --> 00:04:42,500
Is the void white or not?

00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,100
Shitou!

33
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,800

38
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,200
Teacher... why is the void white?

39
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:24,600

Stars...

42
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:46,200
...these are waterfalls in the sky.

43
00:06:46,700 --> 00:06:48,400
What if there is only one star?

44
00:06:49,590 --> 00:06:51,140
One?

45
00:06:52,700 --> 00:06:55,300
One? She's like a stone in the sky

You two are not local. I don't blame you

54
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:50,000

00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,000

57
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,500
Seriously? To the other side?

The people from the valley are waiting for me

59
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,300
It's impossible

60
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,900

Shitou?

69
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,100
This old man is crazy!

70
00:13:03,500 --> 00:13:05,500
No, he's a saint.

71
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,000
As for your strings... don't rush to break them!

72
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,800
Did you hear what I said? Don't rush!

73
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:20,600
Why?

[ Let me hide in your arms! ]

The blind man is an old dandy!

95
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,200
This land has belonged to the Suns since ancient times

96
00:16:16,500 --> 00:16:19,300
Yes, even the Suns don’t forbid people to come here

97
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,100
besides, if it weren’t for our Li ancestors, there would be no Suns at all!

98
00:16:23,300 --> 00:16:24,500
May your entire Li clan go along with your ancestors...

99
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,000
Stop!

You stand on this side

104
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:47,900
No...

It's so useless to light a fire

118

Then show me how.

119
00:20:20,300 --> 00:20:24,100
Try blowing on him like if you were...

120
00:20:24,900 --> 00:20:26,900
...in the face of that village girl!

121
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,400

Little brats! Who gave you permission to touch my instrument?

132
00:24:12,900 --> 00:24:15,400
His eyes are not like ours

133
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:19,900
Teacher, hit me

134
00:28:22,900 --> 00:28:23,700
Are you kidding?

135
00:28:26,300 --> 00:28:28,400
Have I ever hit you...

136
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,200
...all these years?

137
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,200
If you don't exercise...

138
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,800
...when I die, you'll end up a beggar

139
00:28:48,100 --> 00:28:53,500
I've been through all this, you know, it's unpleasant

140
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:55,000
What is “this” through?

141
00:28:55,300 --> 00:28:57,000
Don't be smart!

142
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:00,900
I never told my story

143
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:05,500
because she is sad. You're too young to understand

144
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,900
Women are unreliable!

145
00:29:13,500 --> 00:29:15,800
But now that I'm old

146
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,200
it doesn't bother me anymore

147
00:29:19,500 --> 00:29:21,800
Doesn't it really bother you?

148
00:29:24,100 --> 00:29:25,800
Don't talk

149
00:29:32,900 --> 00:29:34,400
Shitou!

150
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,700
We have the tools! Aren't they better than women?

151
00:29:40,300 --> 00:29:44,400
When a string breaks, it breaks, but it will not deceive you!

152
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,800
My teacher used to say:

153
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,900
Life is like a string

154
00:29:51,700 --> 00:29:53,100
teacher

155
00:29:53,900 --> 00:29:55,900
You're fooling yourself

156
00:29:56,500 --> 00:29:58,500
A tool is not a woman!

157
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,100
Your shirt

158
00:30:42,900 --> 00:30:45,000
A long time ago

00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,500
Two sons of the Jade Lord

160
00:30:48,700 --> 00:30:51,300
Swimming in the clouds

161
00:30:52,100 --> 00:30:56,700
They accidentally fell from heaven to earth

162
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,200
The Jade Emperor sent his soldiers down

163
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,000
He ordered the children to close their eyes,

164
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,900
because the ground is so dirty

165
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,800
and full of lies:

166
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,800
"I don't want my children to see this"

167
00:31:35,300 --> 00:31:36,800
Teacher!

168
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,800
This is nine hundred and ninety-eight. Two more left!

169
00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:14,800
Stop grabbing me

170
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,700
Can you hold my hand

171
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:38,700
Careful, don't cut yourself

172
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:39,800
Are you afraid of blood?

173
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,600
I'm not afraid and the teacher is not afraid of anything

174
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:45,700
except the smell of blood

175
00:36:46,100 --> 00:36:48,400
Do you also need to break 1000 strings?

176
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,700
I'm not like that

177
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,400
Are you not like that?

178
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:55,700
As much as you need, so much will break

179
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:07,100
Tell me, is being blind like death?

180
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:09,800
See nothing...

181
00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:13,400
then I was already dead

182
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:19,000
Nonsense. Death is a change of residence to a better place

183
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,800
When my grandmother died, she smiled

184
00:37:39,500 --> 00:37:41,500
What is the blue sea?

185
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,600
Shitou, Shitou, come here!

186
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:33,800
Shitou!

187
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:24,000
[Seeing my brother far, far away]

[The leek covered everything with ant grass]

189
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:41,300
[The leek was cut - it will still grow]

190
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,400
[Brother is completely gone]

191
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:55,200
[Won't come again]

192
00:40:58,900 --> 00:41:01,000
- Is your chest pressing? - Yes.

193
00:41:05,100 --> 00:41:06,600
Are you dizzy?

194
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,000
Yes

195
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:16,400
Just like last year. Haven't been sick for almost a year

196
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,000
This time it's different

197
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,200
It's cramped inside

198
00:41:24,700 --> 00:41:27,300
as if something is about to explode

199
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,600
I feel something is about to happen

200
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,600
What could happen?

201
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,300
I don't know

202
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,600
Shitou

203
00:41:43,500 --> 00:41:46,800
Do you think I can break these strings?

204
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,300
What are you asking? Only two left

205
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,100
It doesn't matter how much is left

206
00:41:54,700 --> 00:41:58,400
Sometimes in less than a year a dozen are torn,

207
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,000
and sometimes you can tear off a couple of pieces in a day

208
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,300
You know it yourself

209
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:11,900
Today in the mountains, not a single one broke during the whole day.

210
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,000
Whether it breaks or not is not in the power of man

211
00:42:19,500 --> 00:42:21,200
And in whose power?

212
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,600
Teacher, you’re worried, that’s why you’re sick

213
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,800
I'm like a waterskin with a hole

214
00:42:35,500 --> 00:42:39,100
If you don't hurry, all the water will flow out

215
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:56,800
Teacher!

216
00:43:02,900 --> 00:43:05,300
Sixty years of effort

217
00:43:05,700 --> 00:43:07,900
Just to see the light

218
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,500
Was it worth it?

219
00:43:13,300 --> 00:43:15,700
There's nothing left

220
00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:20,800
What is not there, you will no longer look for

221
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,500
What's left is that recipe

222
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:28,800
Was it worth it?

223
00:43:30,500 --> 00:43:32,200
It was worth it!

224
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,200
Was it worth it?

225
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,600
The world that is inside me...

226
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,400
The same one as outside?

227
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,200
The same

228
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,700
Not the same

229
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,500
I'm afraid not the same...

230
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,100
But I still want to see him

231
00:44:01,500 --> 00:44:04,600
See mountains and rivers!

232
00:44:05,010 --> 00:44:09,100
Sneeze from bright sunlight...

233
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,700
See people with whom you have spoken all your life, as if with spirits

234
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,700
Eat a huge date, crunchy-crispy

235
00:44:17,900 --> 00:44:20,200
and see its color

236
00:44:21,370 --> 00:44:23,750
It's like starting all over again...

237
00:44:24,930 --> 00:44:26,390
It was worth...

238
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,400
What else?

239
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,300
This is all? And nothing else?

240
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,500
I was hoping...

241
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,400
to something much more

242
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:04,200
The Li Clan people have attacked!

243
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,200
What's the matter?

244
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,800
Uncle, I was working in the field, Li's people came,

245
00:45:17,900 --> 00:45:21,900
They said this is their land and started beating me, look at the blood

246
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:38,700
Pa, I won't let you in

247
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,000
Leave me alone, let me go!

248
00:45:45,300 --> 00:45:46,600
Father!

249
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,800
Lao Song, you and I...

250
00:46:10,300 --> 00:46:12,700
Shitou! Where is the teacher?

251
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,400
It's not your concern!

252
00:46:18,700 --> 00:46:21,000
Shitou! Call the teacher!

253
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,900
It is forbidden! He's already old, he can't stand it

254
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,600
Shitou! There will be a massacre!

255
00:46:29,900 --> 00:46:33,600
Then it’s even more impossible! He can't stand the smell of blood

256
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,840
He'll get sick again, you don't know...

257
00:46:38,500 --> 00:46:40,100
This is terrible!

258
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,300
Shitou!

259
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,400
Please!

260
00:46:55,500 --> 00:46:57,500
I beg you!

261
00:46:58,700 --> 00:47:02,200
You blind fool! Blind fool!

262
00:47:02,300 --> 00:47:03,700
Shitou!

263
00:47:07,300 --> 00:47:08,800
What's happening?

264
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,800
Nothing, teacher. Go back to bed.

265
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:14,600
You're lying

266
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,100
Holy! There will be a fight!

267
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,200
All the villagers left to kill each other!

268
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:24,200
Saint!

269
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,000
Shitou

270
00:48:06,300 --> 00:48:07,200
Let me go

271
00:48:14,300 --> 00:48:15,800
Teacher!

272
00:48:16,300 --> 00:48:19,400
If you get sick again, don’t break the last string!

273
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:41,100
So so be it

274
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:05,300
Where is the saint?

275
00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:02,300
[You and he are human! ]

276
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:13,200
[You and I are human! ]

277
00:50:18,700 --> 00:50:23,100
[ He, she is a person! ]

278
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:37,000
[When does a person]

279
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:43,300
[Becomes human]

280
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:50,000
[When, man? ]

281
00:51:12,500 --> 00:51:17,300
[Cruel, hating, reproaching, deceiving, offending, mocking,]

282
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:22,500
[man doesn't look human]

283
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,800
[not human]

284
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:37,200
[Battered, sad, sad, vulnerable, tearful, ]

285
00:51:37,700 --> 00:51:40,800
[angry, angry, angry]

286
00:51:41,900 --> 00:51:49,300
[Battered Man]

287
00:51:50,900 --> 00:51:55,400
[Man]

288
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:05,800
[When does a person]

289
00:52:06,300 --> 00:52:11,200
 [will become human? ]

290
00:52:12,900 --> 00:52:15,500
[Loves a person]

291
00:52:18,900 --> 00:52:22,800
[Respect the person]

292
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:29,300
[Help a person]

293
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,800
[Save a man]

294
00:52:33,100 --> 00:52:37,700
[Give in to a man, give a hand to a man]

295
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:47,400
[Friend - man]

296
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:53,500
[Turn around - man]

297
00:52:55,600 --> 00:53:00,300
[Understand a person]

298
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:05,800
[Your human neighbor! ]

299
00:53:13,700 --> 00:53:18,500
[Our two legs]

[They walk on the ground]

[It's a man! this is a man! ]

302
00:54:20,100 --> 00:54:24,100
Saint!

303
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:39,500
Don't come near!

304
00:54:50,100 --> 00:54:51,400
Xiu!..

305
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:02,200
Don't come...

306
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,600
Shitou, will I really play the last string?

307
00:57:07,900 --> 00:57:09,500
Shitou!

308
00:57:10,100 --> 00:57:12,800
Am I really going to play the last string?!

309
00:57:13,500 --> 00:57:15,300
Shitou!

310
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,000
Will I play the last string, yes or no?

311
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:22,600
Will I play the last string, yes or no?

312
00:57:23,100 --> 00:57:25,200
Yes or no? Yes or no, eh?

313
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:21,400
Tell me, what did you do with that girl?

314
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,400
Speak

315
00:59:32,300 --> 00:59:34,200
Speak!

316
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,300
What did I tell you before?

317
00:59:42,100 --> 00:59:44,000
Well, speak up!

318
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:56,700
Shitou, tell me, tell me the truth

319
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:06,500
You... You're jealous

320
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:15,300
What did you say?

321
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:20,700
I say you're jealous

322
01:00:45,300 --> 01:00:49,500
Shitou, is that you?

323
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:55,200
Shitou... Your teacher was wrong...

324
01:00:57,100 --> 01:00:58,700
The teacher was wrong... Shitou

325
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:13,200
Who is this?

326
01:01:16,100 --> 01:01:17,100
You?

327
01:01:33,300 --> 01:01:35,900
Shitou, Shitou...

328
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:49,500
Come back!..

329
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:54,500
...993 994

330
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:58,800
...995

...999

335
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:35,900
Xiu!

336
01:02:39,100 --> 01:02:41,000
Xiu!

337
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,300
Who's down there?

338
01:05:03,500 --> 01:05:06,500
Go your own way!

339
01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:11,500
This string is mine!

340
01:05:13,900 --> 01:05:15,200
Go away!

341
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,600
Leave, quickly!

342
01:08:39,700 --> 01:08:42,200
Burst! Burst!

343
01:08:42,500 --> 01:08:45,300
cut off by God's hand

344
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:48,100
I’m telling the truth, it broke off and that’s it!

345
01:10:10,300 --> 01:10:13,500
Almost as scary as real people

346
01:10:56,200 --> 01:11:00,900
Shitou, this Lanxiu is a good girl

347
01:11:02,700 --> 01:11:05,900
Give her that same mirror

348
01:11:06,700 --> 01:11:10,600
My mother left it as a souvenir before she died

349
01:11:11,500 --> 01:11:13,700
Take care of your love

350
01:11:15,300 --> 01:11:19,600
There is food and firewood

351
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,600
There will be difficulties - go to the village for help

352
01:11:24,900 --> 01:11:26,700
Wait for me

353
01:11:27,700 --> 01:11:29,800
Will I be able to see or not -

354
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:31,900
my attitude towards you will not change

355
01:11:32,900 --> 01:11:38,000
When I get back I'll buy you a kite

356
01:11:39,500 --> 01:11:43,400
Let Lanxiu launch it into the sky with you

357
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:52,500
In this world, who is your father?

358
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:55,000
Your father is me!

359
01:12:02,300 --> 01:12:05,600
But even as a father, I shouldn't have hit you

360
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,500
I said everything

361
01:12:53,700 --> 01:12:57,600
Don't see me off, come back!

362
01:12:57,900 --> 01:13:02,800
Holy, buy a kite in the shape of a butterfly!

363
01:13:03,700 --> 01:13:07,800
I'll remember! Come back!

364
01:13:09,700 --> 01:13:13,900
[I always walk under the sky -]

365
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:16,400
[Vagabond King! ]

366
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:20,600
That string broke due to the sun

367
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:25,000
Why didn't you tell him?

368
01:13:25,900 --> 01:13:28,300
Because of the sun or because of the game - it doesn't matter

369
01:14:10,100 --> 01:14:14,200
Think about it, a girl in our family can waste her life on a blind man?

370
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:02,300
Let him look

371
01:18:40,700 --> 01:18:41,900
What is this?

372
01:18:42,100 --> 01:18:44,300
The letter I wrote

373
01:20:47,500 --> 01:20:48,500
Xiu!

374
01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:54,800
I don't see!

375
01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:00,400
I don't see!..

376
01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:07,600
I don't see

377
01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:37,300
Where are you going?

378
01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:39,000
To the pharmacy

379
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:42,400
Skip it! Skip it!

380
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:47,000
Will you take this medicine and what will happen?

381
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:51,300
Then I can see

382
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:04,700
This recipe was inherited from our ancestors

383
01:23:05,100 --> 01:23:07,400
Take a closer look

384
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:23,500
Then look

385
01:24:39,900 --> 01:24:42,400
[Teacher's grave]

386
01:26:56,300 --> 01:26:58,400
I don't ask about your business

387
01:26:59,700 --> 01:27:04,600
Only today you don't look at all like that singing holy old man

388
01:27:05,900 --> 01:27:09,600
I'll drink this wine for you

389
01:28:13,600 --> 01:28:16,500
Where are you from?

390
01:28:18,100 --> 01:28:20,100
Can't remember anymore

391
01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:26,400
How many years have you been here, by the Yellow River?

392
01:28:29,500 --> 01:28:31,900
And can't be counted

393
01:28:33,500 --> 01:28:38,000
How many times have I passed this shore?

394
01:28:46,700 --> 01:28:49,400
As much as water has flown under the bridge

395
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:11,800
[One duck cannot give birth]

396
01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:21,400
[Won't give birth to a child]

397
01:29:23,500 --> 01:29:28,100
[That child will turn]

398
01:29:29,900 --> 01:29:34,700
[Becomes a frog]

399
01:29:36,900 --> 01:29:41,400
[The little frog will jump into the water]

400
01:29:47,300 --> 01:29:51,900
[And finds a frog]

401
01:29:53,700 --> 01:29:59,000
[The frog will not want to guard the feeder]

402
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:28,000
I held your woman's hand

403
01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:31,100
Why didn't you kill me?

404
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:34,400
I would throw it in the river at the same time

405
01:30:34,900 --> 01:30:36,500
Saints won't know, spirits won't feel

406
01:30:39,500 --> 01:30:43,500
What words? Aren't you a saint?

407
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:51,800
I'm not a saint, I'm just blind.

408
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:57,200
Whoever it is. People are coming into a world where everyone has a role to play.

409
01:30:58,800 --> 01:31:00,800
Some play well

410
01:31:01,100 --> 01:31:03,300
Others are bad

411
01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:07,300
Who are you?

412
01:31:07,900 --> 01:31:10,100
He is the owner

413
01:31:13,900 --> 01:31:16,600
What about me?

414
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:21,500
If you don't watch to the end, how will you know the game is good?

415
01:31:25,900 --> 01:31:27,200
You'll know what the end is...

416
01:31:32,100 --> 01:31:34,900
You are the happiest person

417
01:32:11,300 --> 01:32:14,100
Blind grandfather!

418
01:32:14,600 --> 01:32:16,400
When will you come again?

419
01:32:23,400 --> 01:32:24,900
We've arrived...

420
01:32:26,700 --> 01:32:29,100
Gone...

421
01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:42,800
I brought a kite

422
01:34:03,400 --> 01:34:07,400
Teacher, why are we blind?

423
01:34:11,900 --> 01:34:14,000
Why us?

424
01:34:20,600 --> 01:34:22,900
Take it

425
01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:37,400
Teacher, I want to open my eyes and see

426
01:34:40,800 --> 01:34:41,900
Even if only once

427
01:34:46,700 --> 01:34:49,000
Do you really want this?

428
01:34:49,300 --> 01:34:50,500
Is it true!

429
01:34:54,500 --> 01:34:55,400
True

430
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:04,000
Then play your instrument

431
01:35:06,100 --> 01:35:08,300
pull one string after another

432
01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:10,200
play with all your might

433
01:35:12,900 --> 01:35:14,700
One day

434
01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:18,300
Two children of the Jade Lord

435
01:35:19,100 --> 01:35:22,200
Swimmed in the heavenly river

436
01:35:23,700 --> 01:35:25,900
due to negligence

437
01:35:26,300 --> 01:35:29,700
fell through the cloud to the ground

438
01:35:30,900 --> 01:35:34,500
the heavenly warriors were sent down

439
01:35:34,900 --> 01:35:38,000
close these children's eyes

440
01:35:39,100 --> 01:35:41,500
Those heavenly warriors

441
01:35:42,830 --> 01:35:45,600
didn't know where the heavenly children were

442
01:35:47,300 --> 01:35:50,400
and then they closed their eyes...

443
01:35:50,900 --> 01:35:53,500
all the people on earth

444
01:35:55,100 --> 01:35:58,500
[One day]

445
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:09,600
[Women came]

446
01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:13,400
[asked me]

447
01:36:20,300 --> 01:36:25,800
[What do you see? ]

448
01:36:32,700 --> 01:36:35,100
[I answered]

449
01:36:35,400 --> 01:36:37,700
[I am blind. I answered]

450
01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:46,300
[I don't see anything]

451
01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:59,100
[One day]

452
01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:09,900
[The men came]

453
01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:19,300
[asked me]

454
01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:24,100
[What do you hear? ]

455
01:37:32,600 --> 01:37:35,100
[I answered]

456
01:37:35,300 --> 01:37:37,900
[I am deaf. I answered]

457
01:37:41,900 --> 01:37:46,600
[I don't hear anything]

458
01:37:48,600 --> 01:37:53,500
[One day the children came up]

459
01:37:55,200 --> 01:37:59,000
[And they asked sincerely]

460
01:37:59,100 --> 01:38:01,600
[What are you thinking about? ]

461
01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:05,300
[I won’t say what I’m thinking about]

462
01:38:05,500 --> 01:38:10,100
[You come and ask me]

463
01:38:22,400 --> 01:38:25,400
[One day]

464
01:38:33,700 --> 01:38:35,900
[There's thunder in the sky]

465
01:38:36,100 --> 01:38:41,400
[There is fire on earth]

466
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:51,100
[Everyone came together]

467
01:38:51,900 --> 01:38:55,500
[and said:]

468
01:39:00,200 --> 01:39:02,600
[You're not blind,]

469
01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:06,700
[You are not deaf, you are young, you see] 

470
01:39:07,200 --> 01:39:12,500
[you hear, you sing, you speak]

471
01:39:19,900 --> 01:39:21,500
[One day]

472
01:39:21,800 --> 01:39:24,500
[Everyone sang together]

473
01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:30,200
[songs]

474
01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:33,000
[can't help but sing]

475
01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:37,600
[joy to live]

476
01:39:37,700 --> 01:39:43,800
[and sing]

477
01:39:44,460 --> 01:39:50,780
