Seven Swords

Episode 14

Hwazhao. Bring the children inside.

Take this.

Dad.

Yufang.

I saw a mark at the entrance. I knew you would be here.

But I never thought that after only ten days...

your martial arts skills would've improved so much.

Get up. Get up!

Dad.

What is it?

It was my fault.

I didn't taken good care of Xiaopi.

Xiaopi is...

dead.

Master. - Yufang.

Dad, I want to ask you...

Is Xiaopi the one that the soldiers are trying to find?

Get up.

Xiaopi is an orphan that I found.

We have never had a Little King Lu.

It was the chief's decision to say that Little King Lu was in our hands.

He said the only way to overthrow the Qing was to have an heir to the Ming throne.

The soldiers of Qing Dynasty have always been our enemy.

Even without Little King Lu, we would still risk our lives to kill them.

So many of us died because of that.

Do you really think that was worthwhile?

That's enough!

Xiaopi died needlessly.

Master.

Master.

Get up.

This is my father.

We've been able to stay here thanks to Uncle Zhao's hospitality.

So you are their saviour.

Thank you very much. I am Liu... - Please don't. Please don't.

We are in a critical situation.

The soldiers have surrounded the waterfront.

Many roads are blocked. What should we do?

Don't worry!

We can fight the soldiers. We are not afraid of dying.

No, no, no.

That doesn't matter, but for the children...

Master, we are not afraid.

How about this?

I have a plan.

Maybe we can try it out.

My daughter is getting married tomorrow.

After the wedding ceremony,

she will go to her husband's home.

What if we change the time of the wedding ceremony to tonight?

We can hide the children in the boxes.

Then take them out of town.

I have lived here for many years.

I'm on good terms with the soldiers. I can convince them.

That's great.

However,

if the soldiers search the boxes,

I'm afraid we would endanger your family.

What if Zhibang and Yufang...

pretend to be the newly-wed couple,

then they can take the children out,

the others can come with me to distract the soldiers.

Master...

Let Fourth Brother pretend to be the groom.

Zhibang. What are you talking about?

I'm disappointed in you.

You are engaged with Yufang.

How can you say such childish things?

I believe that Fourth Brother...

would look more like a groom than me.

I've heard enough already.

Your status as swordsman has made you troublesome.

You have liked Yufang from childhood.

I have agreed to let her marry you.

We can use this chance for the two of you get married.

Once you are married, I can die with no regrets.

Yufang. Do you agree?

Dad.

If by doing this,

the children can be saved,

then I agree.

That's it then.

Please wait here for the moment.

I'll make the arrangements.

You can leave right after the wedding ceremony.

Zhibang.

What's got into you?

You should be very happy.

Zhibang.

Master.

Are you still thinking about Yufang?

No.

Have you hidden the children yet?

Yuanyin is making the preparations.

When the sun sets, we'll set off.

Carry on! - Yes.

Zhibang...

Put these on quickly.

Yufang is ready. We're waiting for you.

You should wear them.

Zhibang.

What are you doing?

The two of you are engaged.

And the master agreed to it.

But Master doesn't really know what Yufang wants.

If I do as he says and marry Yufang,

then I would ruin Yufang's life.

She would not have another chance.

But if you pretend to be the groom,

at least Master would see this as a fake marriage.

Then Yufang would still have a chance to live with the one she loves forever.

Perhaps deep down in her heart,

Yufang really wants to marry you.

The two of you grew up together, you make a good couple.

Stop trying to persuade me.

Let me face the truth I think both of us know...

That she loves someone else.

You're talking about First Brother.

It doesn't matter who it is.

Let me tell you...

Yufang is the best woman in the world.

I just want her to have...

real happiness in her life.

She will live a happy life if she can marry...

the one she loves.

Help her.

Zhibang.

Congratulations. Congratulations.

Thank you, thank you.

Uncle Zhao. Congratulations.

Thank you. Thank you.

Why are you holding the ceremony at night?

Her husband has to return home straight after the ceremony.

There is an order that no one is allowed to go to the pier tonight.

Oh, that's a real problem. Is there any way around it?

It's all right. It's all right.

We've known each other for a long time. I'll convince them for you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Look at this, it's a snow lotus.

I brought this back from Mount Heaven, especially for you.

Look out.

Look out behind your head.

Zhibang. You'd better get ready.

I can handle it here.

Quick. Quick. Quick. Go. Go. Go.

Hwazhao. Come on. Go over there!

Bow to the gods.

Bow to the ancestors.

Bow to each other.

Bow once.

Bow twice.

Bow the third time.

Good.

My daughter is shy. She's very shy. All right.

My son-in-law is getting married here because he respects me a lot.

That makes me very happy.

Now, my son-in-law needs to hurry home at once.

Everyone, enjoy your dinner.

Come on. Go.

Everyone. Let's drink.

How come it's you?

Go.

Why isn't Mulang here yet?

He will be here very soon.

Zhibang.

Zhibang. What are you doing here?

Aren't you supposed to be at the wedding?

I asked Mulang to be the groom.

Yufang's martial arts skill is still not good enough.

And there are so many children.

Mulang can protect her and the children.

I have decided to join you.

We will distract the soldiers.

What's got into you?

Don't you think you need to follow my orders anymore?

How dare you make that decision without asking me?

I'm sorry, master.

The decision had to be made quickly.

I wanted to discuss it with you first.

But they kept on pushing us.

There was no time.

Let's go.

Hey! Stop! Don't get aboard the ship!

Sir.

Today is my wedding day.

Let's have a drink.

Come on.

Who are you?

Sir.

This is the daughter of the Zhao family.

They just got married today, but must return home urgently.

We've known each other for so long.

I promise that there won't be a problem.

Yes. You have our word too.

Sir, please. Please.

Proceed.

Please board.

Thank you very much. All aboard!

Stop!

Your Highness.

Stop! Don't go!

Check everybody, including the bride.

Search everywhere.

Yes.

Yufang. Come out.

Come on... Take away her veil.

Who goes there? After them!

Soldier. Can we go aboard now?

All right. All right. Go aboard. - Everybody board!

Let's get onboard quickly. Quickly.

Hurry up both of you.

It's all right. Get up now.

Take care.

Take care. We'll meet again.

Thank you. - Go now.

Teacher. Teacher.

Teacher. Teacher.

It's all right. Everything's fine.

Go to sleep now.

Come on children.

Yufang.

Zhibang asked me to give you this.

Tell me Swordsman, what are your principles?

Sincerity, honour and trust.

Why do you obey principles...

that I can't believe in?

I will make you believe in them.

Swordsman...

You want me to believe in love,

but you don't believe in it yourself,

do you?

Do you really love me?

Of course.

Swordsmen... have no place for feelings.

You will meet other women in the future.

Perhaps one day,

you would forget about me.

But you will never forget...

the woman that bit you.

Don't be silly.

They say fate is like dew...

One moment, it's here. The next moment, it's gone.

I designed this hook especially for you.

I will stick this hook in your body...

And then pull it out slowly.

Imagine it...

Can you imagine how it would feel. Eh?

You...

Kill me!

That is easy.

Just tell me the whereabouts of Little King Lu,

then I will grant your wish.

Qiu Dongluo.

You are an animal.

I always treated you like a brother.

And you... you betrayed us.

You... You are inhuman.

That is because you are foolish.

You don't deserve to be my brother.

Chaotai.

Everything in the world is settled now.

If you insist on opposing it, you will die.

Tell me now. Where is Master Liu?

Don't waste my time anymore. Tell me quickly.

Qiu Dongluo.

I will come back to haunt you as a ghost.

Seven of the prisoners have died.

But none was willing to speak.

That was my fault. I will get the information though.

Please give me some more time.

You can tell the prince yourself.

Yuanyin.

Senior Fu.

Third Brother.

Fool!

It's dangerous here. Let's go!

It was really dangerous for us just now.

There were soldiers all around.

The traces and marks are theirs.

We're here.

What? You've become very smart.

Why weren't you as smart before?

They were inexperienced.

Now they have matured.

You have both greatly improved your martial arts skills too.

But those experiences were very bloody.

Given the choice, I wouldn't have had them.

All right. Let's see the master now.

Has Zhaonan arrived yet?

Not yet.

First Brother has gone back to Mount Heaven.

He went to bring Second Brother back.

First Brother has been very depressed lately.

Why?

We don't know.

Has he been wrongly accused again?

Let's see the master now.

I'm not going in.

I need to guard the entrance.

Xin Longzi.

I don't want to see an ungrateful person.

The doubts are cleared and the facts are known,

don't hold a grudge anymore.

We have to unite ourselves.

Come on! Follow me!

Master Liu.

Swordsman Fu. Come on in.

Swordsman Xin.

Swordsman Fu. Zhibang told me...

that Qiu Dongluo was the traitor.

I wrongly accused Swordsman Yang.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry!

He has already left.

It's no use in apologizing.

Xin Longzi.

All right.

I know. Be united. I'll forgive you this once.

But I won't tolerate it if it happens again.

Third Brother.

The master...

speaks for everyone in Red Spear Society.

Please believe us.

Master, don't blame yourself too much.

Everyone saw the situation at that time.

Qiu Dongluo was very crafty.

And he hid the truth very carefully.

Many traces and marks of the society...

were left by Qiu Dongluo.

Many of our brothers...

have been killed because of him.

I have ordered people to abandon our old ways of leaving marks.

So that less people will die.

What should we do next?

Zhibang and I...

want to go to Hangzhou to meet the Chief of the society.

I have a favour to ask of you.

What is it?

I want you to go to the capital...

contact the master of Red Spear Society there,

and tell them to go to Hangzhou.

All right.

In that case...

Xin Longzi, Yuanyin and I will go together.

After our battle in the cave,

I made a new discovery.

Heaven's Fall Sword, Star-chaser's Sword and Unlearn Sword can create a wonderful stance.

It can handle all the directions,

and cover all the possible angles.

What about the others?

The Dragon Sword and The Transience Sword; attack and defence, it's very natural.

As for Zhibang's "Deity Sword",

and Mulang's "Celestial Beam Sword",

I have not figured out how to combine them yet.

However, as of now,

you must be a team.

When Mulang and Yufang...

bring the children to Hangzhou,

the two of you will have to try to discover the connection.

Yes.

General Nalan. What interrogation results?

Your Highness. Nothing.

Your Highness.

The rebels are scattered. They cannot defend themselves.

General Nalan. Take a team to capture them.

Yes.

I have already said that we need to capture the seven swords.

If any trace is found, report to me at once.

Yes sir! - Yes sir!

Chengbin has sent some men to track down and keep an eye on Chu Zhaonan.

I believe that the rebel's aim is to get Little King Lu into hiding.

As the Eagles of the Desert are causing chaos in the desert,

it would be easier for us to go after Chu and Yang.

I will lead the forces myself.

Yes Sir!

What kind of trade do you do?

I'm not really in the trading business.

I'm just here to collect money for a salt business back home.

If I could travel with you it would be easier for me.

If that's all right.

Brother, I can tell that you are a man of the martial world.

I guess you just want to escape from the soldiers.

I'm sorry.

It could be a problem.

But I like the look of you.

Good.

You have a fine looking horse.

Oh yes... She's my beauty.

Don't panic.

We are passing through here because we need to transport food.

And our horses are injured.

So, we need to use your horses.

Please don't worry.

We will reimburse you for the horses.

Don't do that, Brother Yang.

You will endanger us.

You'll die for that!

Who are you?

Quick! Run!

Grab the merchandise and run!

Brother, I can tell that you are a man of the martial world.

I guess you just want to escape from the soldiers.

I'm sorry.

It could be a problem.

But I like the look of you.

Good.

Swordsman, please don't kill me. Please don't kill me.

Spare my life. - It's too late.

Yunchong. You are a simple and honest person.

And you have always been humble.

But at crucial moments,

you should remember to distinguish right from wrong.

Remember.

I'm giving you this magical sword.

You must use it to distinguish right from wrong.

Understand?

Good. Good. Come on in. Sit, sit, sit.

Here. Thank you.

Tell me.. Have you seen The Eagles of the Desert?

The Eagles of the Desert...

are looking for water in the desert.

Is this true?

I swear it on my life.

Good.

All right. Let's drink.

Fei Hongjin. Please, spare my life.

Go back by yourself.

Remember.

My name is Fei Hongjin.

Don't forget that.
