(Guardians of the Dafeng)

(Episode 25)

Who... Who are you?

Who am I?

I've seen you before.

Are you the Demonic Arm at the bottom of Lake Sangbo?

My name is Shen Shu.

I want to use your body

to nurture my broken arm.

Please help me.

Why are you at the bottom of Lake Sangbo?

Inside Lake Sangbo?

Why would I be sealed inside Lake Sangbo?

Where do I come from?

Why am I here?

Who am I? I don't remember.

Inside Lake Sangbo? At the bottom of Lake Sangbo?

Why would I be at Lake Sangbo?

Where do I come from?

I am

too obsessed.

My primordial soul is incomplete.

So, I can't remember what happened in the past.

I only know my saint name,

but I can't remember where I come from

and what happened in the past.

Master, I have no grudge against you.

Why must you enter my body?

Someone brought me

to you

because we are the same kind.

Master, can you be clear?

That's what I felt.

I don't remember

the rest.

Who brought you here, Master?

Keep up.

(Linyuan Pass)

The man in the black robe

is the one who sent me here.

I used to fuse with him

and left this memory in his primordial soul in me.

Who is the man in the black robe?

I don't know.

You fused with him before

just like how you fused with Heng Hui.

(There is indeed a secret)

(behind the Sangbo case.)

(Is it to fuse with this demon in front of me?)

I am not a demon.

My name is Shen Shu.

How can you hear my thoughts?

I've already fused with you

so I know what you are thinking.

Nonsense.

Nine and eight.

One and two.

Two and zero.

3.14159265597.

One, two, three, four, five. Seven, eight, nine. Four, three, two, one.

- One, two, three, four, five, six, seven... - Stop!

Don't worry.

I won't harm you.

Yes. I do need to stay inside your body for a period,

but your body is much stronger than Heng Hui's.

I won't kill an innocent person by devouring your Qi and blood.

I also won't take over

or control your body.

Fine.

I understand.

You are a parasite in me.

You know everything I'm thinking about.

In that case,

I'll be nurturing myself here.

- Thank you. - No. Hold on.

Master, I'm just a mere Night Guardian.

I can't help you in any way.

Why don't you find another host?

Not really.

Your body

is extremely strong,

and I feel very comfortable in your body.

Moreover, there's one thing in your body

that can help me nurture my broken arm.

A thing?

What is it?

I don't know.

I only know

that the thing

wasn't supposed to be inside your body,

but someone purposely

placed it here.

That's easy. Just remove that thing from me. I will never...

That thing is connected to you.

I don't know where it comes from

and can't take it away.

It's my fault then.

Besides using this place to nurture,

I still have another favor to ask.

This is too much.

Help me trace my past

and find my memory.

During this process,

I will give you a certain amount of aid.

Aid?

There are not many in the mortal world who can defeat me.

The three Gold Guardians

and those from the Astronomical Bureau are worse than me.

With me around,

you'll have another trump card.

Hack?

What do you mean hack?

My name is Shen Shu.

Shen Shu Hack.

No. Master Shen Shu.

Master Shen Shu.

Through my observation,

I have some information

about your origin.

What is it?

You should be

from the Celestial Realm.

How so?

Your aura.

I see.

I am actually someone from the Celestial Realm.

Yes.

Please take good care of me in the future.

- Take good care of me. - Of course.

This Hongdi we exchanged from Dafeng

is so much better than what we have in the Celestial Realm.

Come.

Brother.

We had a good haul today.

With that wild rabbit

and the ferret,

it's enough to make a fur coat for me.

Later, I'll go to the mountains and catch a deer

to make one for you for the winter.

Hold it.

Where are your parents?

I don't know.

You don't know?

An illusion?

If I don't use this,

how can I see the true form of the priests of the Celestial Realm?

Show yourself.

Who dares interrupt our cultivation?

Soul Wizard?

(Rank Three, Soul Wizard)

Greetings, Saints.

Forgive me for being rude.

I came here to send both of you a message.

Shen Shu

is born.

(What should I do?)

(Should I tell this to others?)

As a Night Guardian,

you just need to do your duty.

Remember.

No matter what happens,

I will protect you.

(It's true that Lord Wei appreciates me.)

(If he can remove this broken arm from me, )

(it won't be a problem.)

(If he can't...)

(It's something from the bottom of Lake Sangbo after all.)

(Will he protect me)

(or seal me together with it?)

(The Imperial Astronomer.)

(With his ability, )

(I'm sure he can remove the arm for me.)

(The Imperial Astronomer is a weird person.)

(Although I've not met him before, )

(it feels like he has always been watching me.)

(Will he help me?)

(The Soul Wizard)

(spent a lot of effort to unseal that thing.)

(Why did it enter my body?)

(Who is he?)

(What is his goal?)

(Will he come and retrieve the broken arm?)

(Right now, )

(I must find out this person's identity as soon as possible.)

(All right. There's the problem.)

(How should I find out his identity?)

(Should I ask someone else for help?)

Keep it a secret.

Master?

Are you around?

Master.

Do you have clues about that person?

Give me something more.

Master.

You said we were the same kind.

What did you mean?

Do you pick up money every day as well?

Or are you good at playing pitch-pot?

Accurate in ring toss?

Master, say something.

Why don't you come out and let's have a chat?

I can make you a cup of milk tea.

Master.

Master. Master?

Master.

Master, say something.

If you don't... Why do you leave me with two words?

Master!

Master!

Master!

Greetings, Lord Wei.

You're here.

Lord Wei.

I heard His Majesty found out about me using the Resurrection Pill

and was unsatisfied with the Astronomical Bureau.

His Majesty wanted it for three years,

but the Imperial Astronomer did not give it to him.

Right now,

you need to keep a low profile

and wait for an opportunity.

You must use the Resurrection Pill nicely.

Training with this scroll

will help you double your progress.

Take a look.

The Visualization Map?

You know this?

Yes. My second uncle told me before.

The Visualization Map is the thing that can help me break through my rank.

Take this map as your reward to Yunzhou.

This booklet

has the method of using the Visualization Map.

You must learn it with this.

Remember. The aspect of Visualization

will affect the mentality of the martial artist.

This is the spirit

that the artist imprinted on the picture.

I took a while to choose it

and thought this suits you the most.

Thank you, Lord Wei.

Lord Wei.

Can I use this map

with someone else?

You just need to return it to me in three months.

As for what you do with it

or whom you read it with

is none of my business.

I need to return it?

Of course.

Every map is extremely valuable.

If it is damaged,

your salary for the rest of your life will be gone.

Yes.

Oh, Lord Wei.

I have one more thing to report to you.

Speak.

Do you still remember

the Battle of Linyuan Pass?

Dear.

Are you working today?

Not at first.

I just received news

that the Lord of the North's consort is missing.

Everyone on and off duty at the yamen has been summoned to search for her.

It must be tough.

But you shouldn't forget

to ask someone to ask around at Yunlu Academy.

Why are you still missing that unfilial son?

Come back!

Well, reasonably speaking,

Xin Nian should be back.

Ning Yan wrote a letter to him

to tell him that we are moving, right?

- I don't know. - You don't know.

Come back!

What do you mean?

He's an adult with arms and legs. Do you think he'll go missing?

- Why can't he go missing? - Hurry! Go ask around!

- That's ridiculous. - He's not worried at all.

That's about it.

I didn't believe him at first,

but that old man was sure.

He said he participated in the Battle of Linyuan Pass.

He said he was standing on the city walls.

What is his name?

He's just a normal old man. I didn't ask about anything else.

Oh. He said he was standing behind you, Lord Wei.

There wasn't such a person.

No. Please think carefully, Lord Wei.

He was just behind you.

About this distance.

I'm sure he exists.

I'm a little tired.

I'll be leaving then.

Lord Wei.

I think that old man is quite pitiful.

He has no one to depend on, and he has no family.

I figured that if you could remember him,

we could at least give him a pension or something.

Why are you so sure?

The old man looked kind and didn't seem like a bad person.

Moreover, lying to a Night Guardian would only mean trouble for him.

Fine.

Find him

and let me ask him about it.

What?

I...

I met him when I was drinking by the streets.

Where should I go to find him?

You can do it.

I'm sure of that.

Signature Beautifying Cream!

Take a look! Try it!

After using it, you'll have beautiful skin that's as white as snow!

Who is this person?

Someone who can stand behind Lord Wei

must be extraordinary.

It's this unlucky person again.

I've never picked up anything in Yunzhou for so long.

I can break even after this.

I probably lost it around here.

Yes. I was searching for it all the way.

Where did it go?

This shouldn't have happened.

I've never dropped my wallet in the last three months.

Why did I lose it again?

They are gone. Keep looking.

Where did it go? Where did I drop it?

Apparently, the Lord of the North's consort

likes finding treasures on the streets.

We must search carefully

in a market like this.

Yes.

Xu, you're back.

I'm back!

It has been so long.

Enjoy.

The few of you.

Go there and take a look.

Yes.

Who is it?

Who are you?

Xin...

Xin Nian?

You...

Didn't your brother write you a letter?

I came here to pick you up as soon as I found out about this.

Why didn't you go stay at an inn?

I have no more money.

Stay in your room.

I lose my bed as well.

Why didn't you go back to the academy?

The city gates are closed.

I'm here to pick you up!

Come home with me!

My Lord.

I have

no family!

Xin Nian, you can't jump!

- Don't do something foolish! - Don't stop me!

No! Let me die!

Don't do something foolish, Xin Nian!

- I have no family! - You have a family!

I'm here to pick you up!

Xin Nian, listen to me!

I've cleaned up your room for you!

Come home with me!

- Come here! - Let me jump down!

Quickly!

Master, are you sure there was someone behind Lord Wei?

I asked Lord Wei,

and he said he didn't remember the existence of such a person.

Is there something wrong with the information you gave me?

Master, are you there?

If you're there, say something!

Why are you keeping quiet?

(It seems like he has gone to sleep again.)

(Why don't I use this opportunity)

(to tell Lord Wei about this.)

(By doing that...)

Master, you're back?

Master, what are you doing?

No, Master!

I was wrong. I was just joking.

Master, no.

You know nothing. The human heart is complicated.

It's normal for a person's thoughts and actions to be different.

I was just simply thinking about it.

I will never tell anyone. Don't worry.

Calm down.

Don't be angry.

That's right, Master.

Thank you for not killing me, Master.

Thank you.

That's too much. I only hit you once.

You're someone who holds a grudge.

Master, I was wrong.

Master! No! I was wrong, Master.

I was wrong, Master.

Ning Yan!

Ci Jiu?

Ning Yan!

Ci Jiu!

You scared me!

I thought you were dead.

It's all right. I'm fine.

It's great that you are fine.

I thought you were dead.

When did you wake up?

Your brother is blessed.

I woke up a long time ago.

How long?

A few days ago.

What's wrong?

My Lord,

didn't you say

he woke up two hours ago?

He did wake up two hours ago.

Am I right?

He did wake up two hours ago.

Am I right?

I can prove that.

He did wake up two hours ago.

I woke up two hours ago.

Xin Nian, did you hear me say a few days ago?

- I was... - It's already midnight.

Ci Jiu, go back to your room to take a bath, get changed, and rest.

Let's talk tomorrow morning.

Yes.

That's not right.

- I was... - Ling Yue.

Don't space out. Bring Xin Nian to his room.

Yes.

Xin Nian, let's go.

Wait!

Is this our new house?

It's really

majestic

and lavish.

I'm sure

my room

must be great, right?

Right, Ling Yue?

Bring me to my room, Ling Yue.

Our house is so pretty.

The pond is so big!

The whole place is so pretty.

Everywhere I go is a different scenery.

Is my room over here?

Father.

Where is Xin Nian's room?

- Ning Yan. - Second Uncle.

Let's talk about this.

There's a mosquito.

Go away. Go away, mosquitoes.

Don't be so petty.

You are someone who will soon become the Chief Advisor.

You're acting like a shy girl

after facing some grievances.

I didn't forget you on purpose.

I didn't remember.

Well,

I'll use my money to make a new one for you.

You can choose whatever you want.

No, Ci Jiu. Why did you get a temper

from months of studying?

I can't even comfort you now?

You're being so arrogant.

Are you not going to let me sleep?

I still need to work tomorrow.

What's wrong with you?

Ning Yan.

I'm glad that you're still alive.

Ning Yan brings me

to buy Tanghulu.

Do you know how useless you are now?

Since he calls me his second uncle,

I must behave like an uncle.

Let me achieve the Spirit Refining Realm.

Then, I might be able

to help him in the future.

Don't tire yourself.

Look how sweaty you are.

Somehow,

you've become mature.

(Xu Residence)

The name list for the Battle of Linyuan Pass?

Yes. Get it for me.

My Lord, I'm afraid you need to go to the Ministry of Personnel.

We don't have it here at the Official Document Section.

Are you kidding me?

Doesn't the Night Guardians' Official Document Section

have a more comprehensive record than the Ministry of Personnel?

My Lord, you know nothing.

The Official Document Section

has a more comprehensive record of the usual documents.

However, the yamen was established in the 19th year of the Yuanjing era.

That was two years after the battle.

So, confidential documents about the Battle of Linyuan Pass

is lacking in the Official Document Section.

I get it. Get back to work.

It happened two years earlier?

The Ministry of Personnel is Wang Zhen Wen's turf.

He has been on bad terms with the Night Guardians.

How do I get there?

Do I force my way inside?

My Lord, are these dishes not suited to your tastebuds?

Why don't I get someone to get you some other dishes?

No need.

Young Master,

you hurt me.

Young Master,

come with me.

Yes.

Come here.

Yes.

I have something to ask you.

Answer honestly.

Yes.,

Is the intendant of Yunzhou, Song Chang Fu,

someone from the Wizard God Sect?

Yes.

Is the Commander-in-Chief of Yunzhou, Yang Chuan Nan,

someone from the Wizard God Sect as well?

No.

He is unrelated to the Wizard God Sect.

Master is right.

Yang Chuan Nan might be corrupt,

but he won't side with the traitors.

Last question.

Who is

your younger brother?

Aren't you No. 3's elder brother?

What kind of person

is he?

- You... - You are not No. 2.

You have no strength in your arms.

You are not Li Miao Zhen.

Let go.

You are really hurting me.

Why are you fine?

You were obviously charmed by me.

What a petty trick.

(Something's wrong.)

Magic spells of Yunlu Academy?

Who are you?

Lady,

I should be the one who asks the questions next.

You will answer

every question I ask.

Understand?

Where is No. 2, Li Miao Zhen?

Why has she gone for so long?

Did her old habit act up again?

I only asked you to ask him a few questions.

What did you do? Why did it take you so long?

Where is he?

Mistress, be careful!

Sparrow Heroine, Li Miao Zhen.

You live up to your reputation indeed.

Are you Xu Qi An?

Indeed.

How can a warrior help me?

No. 3 is easily surprised.

You know who I am?

Did you tell him?

He forced me.

What else did you tell him?

I just said a little.

How much is a little?

Just a little.

I didn't say anything else.

I told him your identity, age, cultivation,

and your experience.

And also how you have a crush on Senior...

I'm warning you.

Don't tell No. 3 about me.

I'll let you die a cruel death if you reveal anything to him.

I heard from my younger brother

that both of you are in the capital with important matters

that require his help.

I'm not asking for help. He owes me a favor.

I heard No. 3 say you are good at solving cases.

I'm not bad.

- Help me out then. - Tell me and let me consider it.

Can we keep our weapons for now?

- It depends on you. - Let's keep them.

- Three. - Two.

- One. - Keep them.

- Su Su, close the door. - Yes.

Close your eyes and steady your primordial soul.

Where...

Where am I?

You are inside my memory.

This is Shared Memory Magic. It is my sect's secret art.

It allows us to fuse our conscience and connect our memories.

Is it possible to do a one-way sharing?

I don't want my memories to be seen by others.

I'm not as despicable as you.

I'm only fusing this part of the memory with you.

Great.

Mistress, if you want to question Xu Qi An,

why not let me use my charm on him?

Sure. Remember to stop when necessary and not cause any more trouble.

Don't worry, Mistress.

I'm best at stopping when necessary

when it comes to men.

That is...

Is that a man?

Xu Qi An.

Can you determine this person's identity?

He should be someone from the north.

- What's the explanation? - Different places breed different people.

His origin can be determined by his appearance and his skin color.

Moreover, there's a thick layer of calluses on his index finger

besides the callus on his palm.

These calluses were not formed with the use of blades or swords.

What kind of weapon did he use?

Stop acting mysterious.

- It's a bow. - That's right.

This man was good at archery.

How can you determine that he is from the north from that?

I think you are speaking nonsense.

There are many people who are good at archery.

Couldn't he be someone from the army?

This man could not be from the army.

He had no calluses on his heels.

Soldiers who often ride on horses

will surely have calluses on their feet.

Someone who is good at archery

yet not from the army.

This matches the traits of the Northern people.

Every martial artist in various parts of Dafeng

are not good at using bows.

Is it possible that he was an archer?

Who would send an archer to send a message?

He was most probably a Northern martial artist.

As for the message he tried to send,

his employer,

and his murderer,

I have no idea about that.

3,000-li massacre.

3,000-li massacre.

Please ask the imperial court

to send the army on a crusade.

3,000-li massacre.

What did he mean by that?

What you see now is everything I saw back then.

3,000-li massacre.
