Episode 18

Granny?

Granny.

Ever since I left Luoyang, I've kept Granny and elder Zhu in my thoughts.

Missing those days at Bamboo Lane.

I even dreamt of Granny once.

If not...

If not for the sake of seeing Granny once more

perhaps I would've...

would've...

Granny.

Granny.

Just now there were a lot of people with me.

Some I knew.

Some I didn't know.

They all tried to help cure me.

And they drank with me.

I was so happy.

But in an instant I don't know why

they all left all of a sudden.

Master.

Headmistress are gone.

Little Sister is gone.

On this big mountain hilltop all that is left...

is me alone.

Strange.

We heard that noise just now.

Now it's gone all of a sudden.

Shouldn't there be many people on Wuba Hills?

Why is it so empty and silent?

Were they scared off by us?

Right. That demon girl must still be around.

Let's take a look around.

Young hero.

I am being chased by an enemy.

Please stand aside.

Enemy?

How could Granny have any enemies?

Is it because the Sacred Lady found out that you have the music score

so she's come to trouble you?

That's correct.

My enemies are here!

Someone is in there.

Let's go take a look.

This old woman lives here alone.

It's inconvenient to have visitors at night.

Were you the one playing the qin just now?

That's right.

Play some more.

We don't know each other. Why should I play for you?

Don't know each other?

Perhaps that's not the case.

You said you were alone.

What are you doing here in the dead of night?

Right. She must be up to no good anyway.

Let's go in.

Wait a moment.

Who are you?

Sneaking around in the dark.

Linghu Chong of Mount Hua Sect greets the seniors of Shaolin and Kunlun.

So you can tell it's us.

The style of elite of Shaolin and Kunlun.

Who wouldn't be able to tell?

Since you are an orthodox disciple why are you also hiding in these Wuba Hills?

Aren't you three here as well?

Since Granny does not wish to see you, why do you insist?

Kid.

What did you call the person in there?

The one inside is an aged and upstanding Granny who has no quarrel with the world.

Granny?

Her voice is not so old, is it?

Granny has a good singing voice.

What's so strange about that?

Even the Granny's nephew is at least twice as old as the three of you.

What a joke. Let's go.

We're going in.

- Stop. - Get lost.

You are a Mount Hua disciple?

I am. What of it?

- Stubborn guy. - Forget it!

This kid doesn't know martial arts.

Senior brothers.

The Granny in this tent once saved my life.

As long as I live, I will not allow you three to intrude.

I'll count to three. If you don't leave don't blame me for what comes next.

Wait.

Does your sword have what it takes?

Although I have lost all my internal strength

but this sword is still...

Young hero Linghu?

Granny.

I am still alive.

Granny.

Thank you for the play, Granny.

You bravely fought off a strong enemy to defend my honor.

I should be the one thanking you.

That's nothing, Granny.

It's what I should have done anyway.

The enemy has retreated.

You don't need to stay here any more.

So as to avoid misunderstanding.

Granny.

You want me to leave?

Are you not going to your Little Sister?

I...

Where can I go?

Fine.

If Granny wants me to leave then I will leave.

But Granny.

What is it?

I have an unreasonable favor to ask.

Before I go can I see Granny once?

Didn't you already ask that once at Bamboo Lane?

Why bring it up again?

I want to know if Granny looks the same as in my dreams.

No. It must not be the same.

Where will you go?

I don't know.

Your injuries are severe.

It is unwise to travel alone.

Thank you for your concern, Granny.

My sickness cannot be cured anyway.

Even the Famed Killer Physician said I only have a hundred days to live.

Sooner or later death will come regardless.

What difference does it make where I die?

If you leave what about me?

Where does Granny want to go?

I was forced into a corner by that Sacred Lady

and escaped here after suffering injuries.

Once you leave, the Sacred Lady will surely come for me.

Granny only received a music score from me.

Why does she want to kill you?

You did say you can only meet her with a sword.

I really haven't thought about how to talk to her face to face.

You've never even spoken to her.

Why would you think that she would simply let me be?

Well...

There's only one way left.

You must protect me along the way to where I want to go.

I'll do it!

Granny.

No matter where you want to go I will accompany you!

Okay.

But there's a complication.

My appearance is very ugly.

Whoever sees it gets scared.

You must promise me.

Under no circumstances can you look at my face.

Okay, I promise!

As long as I can be with Granny any condition is fine.

Please wait a moment, Granny.

I must do something first.

I will never forget your kindness, elder Ping.

Living on well is how you should repay him.

Let us go.

Be careful, Granny.

Granny.

I still don't really get it.

Why did Elder Ping, Mister Zu and the rest all treat me so kindly?

You've seen much more of the world. Can you tell me why?

How would I know?

I'm just using your sword skills to protect myself.

I'm not an oracle or a prophet.

Keep that in mind!

Yes, Granny.

Granny.

You said that you were ugly.

I find that rather hard to believe though.

Perhaps you should let me...

It sure is difficult to see Granny's face.

You promised not to turn around.

A gentleman cannot go back on his words.

Let's go.

Fine. A gentleman cannot go back on his words.

Granny.

I do not understand.

An aged and upstanding Granny

who keeps aloof of worldly affairs like yourself

why are you so concerned about your appearance?

And from my gut instinct I bet when Granny was young

you must've had nations at your mercy with the beauty of a goddess

that put the moon and flowers to shame.

Insolent and slick-tongued.

No wonder your Little Sister doesn't like you.

What's the matter with you?

Hear, hear.

My stomach is telling my intestines.

This Granny this Granny is a divine fairy.

She cares not for the food of the world.

But we're not.

We'll need to get something to eat.

Stop with the smooth talk.

Let's go.

Okay then.

Eat up, brothers.

Big Brother.

This place is too close to Wuba Hills.

Should we...

We'll leave after we eat.

Shopkeeper, hurry up.

We still have to get back on the road.

I say...

take two brothers outside and keep guard.

If you see the Sacred Lady then we'll pull back.

Go on.

Okay.

Come, brothers.

Young Master Linghu?

Dear friend.

This is?

Friend!

What was that for?

I...

blinded both eyes three days ago.

I already could not see anything.

I wanted to swear an oath that I would not say a word.

But I fear that it'll be difficult to trust me.

What are you all doing!

Stay your hands!

Granny, help them out!

Fine, I can trust you guys.

There's the Coiled Dragon Island in the East Sea.

Does somebody know of it?

I know it.

500 miles southeast of Fujian in the sea.

That's right.

Leave immediately.

Go and play on the island.

Don't come back to the mainland in this lifetime.

Thank you.

Granny, what is this?

Granny.

Who are you really?

Why are they so afraid of you?

How can you be that cruel to them?

Do you really want to know?

Are you willing to tell me?

If you really want to know, you can turn around and look for yourself.

You are not the Granny from Bamboo Lane!

You are not!

Who are you really?

Who are you really?

Do you dare to tell me?

Do you dare to tell me your name?

You dare not!

You don't even dare to let me see your face!

How could I've been so foolish?

That I even wanted to protect you.

Your face can even kill people and exile those men to an abandoned island.

What right do you have to be protected by a man who is about to die?

Fine!

Since you will not come out to face me I will just leave!

Master, it's right up ahead.

Master, this is the song.

This time they have nowhere to escape.

Witch.

Come out and receive your death.

Merciful Buddha.

May I ask who it was that injured our Shaolin disciples at Wuba Hills last night?

I am Fangsheng.

I shall await your presence.

Master Fangsheng. There's no need for formalities with such people.

She must be in the room. Allow me to bring her out.

Hold on.

Master Monk.

Disciple Linghu Chong of Mount Hua Sect greets the Master Monk.

Master. He's the one who injured the brothers.

Young man.

Since you are a disciple of Mister Yue why did you harm Shaolin's disciples?

Master Monk.

Please allow me to explain.

I bear heavy wounds...

You're lying!

Are you really suffering from injuries?

I dare not lie.

Young hero.

Come over here.

Let me check out your condition.

All right.

You are not from Mount Hua Sect.

I am truly a disciple of Mount Hua.

I am the first disciple of Mister Yue.

Then why are there so many wayward chis inside of your body?

They were forced into me by others.

I am tortured by it every day.

Merciful Buddha.

So that's how it is.

Witch, come out!

Merciful Buddha.

Master Monk!

Who are you in the demonic cult?

Demonic cult?

I crossed paths once with Cult Master Dongfang.

Put down your weapon and I will not cause you trouble.

Come with me back to Shaolin Temple and hear judgment from my brother, Fangzheng.

Or else.

Master Monk!

This Granny...

You call her Granny?

This Granny once saved my life.

Although she is a bit cruel in her actions

but I will not allow Master Monk to take her.

You?

Forgive my insolence.

I beg of you to let her go.

Do you know who she is?

I don't care who she is.

She's one of the heads of the demonic cult!

Besides, your internal energy is in disarray.

You cannot use force.

Master Monk.

I am already a man close to death.

All I know is that Granny is the only one who is kind to me in this world.

I don't care if she's of the demonic cult or what.

I will definitely protect her.

If you insist on being so stubborn this old monk has no other choice.

Young hero.

Please.

Forgive me.

The Nine Swords of Dugu?

I did not think elder Feng Qingyang's swordplay

had been passed to a successor in this world.

Shaolin Temple owes a debt to elder Feng.

I cannot act alone on this matter today.

This is a special medicine of Shaolin Temple.

I'm afraid there's only one left.

Thank you, Master Monk.

The successor of the Nine Swords of Dugu must be a morally upright individual.

But young hero...

I pray that you will come to your senses.

A gentleman cannot go back on his word.

Young hero.

Your wounds may still be cured if you can master a powerful internal strength skill.

In my opinion, the Yijin Scripture of Shaolin can possibly help.

Young hero.

Why don't you come with me to Shaolin Temple?

The Yijin Scripture is the treasure of Shaolin.

I dare not ask for such.

Merciful Buddha.

Granny, are you hurt?

It's no big deal.

How about you?

That Monk was ridiculously powerful.

I'm fine.

I just don't have any energy left.

Then just stay put over there.

Granny.

Just now, Master Fangsheng left behind a medicinal pill.

You'll be better once you eat it.

I don't want it.

He injured me, and now wants to be the good guy?

Not that easily.

That will not do.

You must take it.

After you eat it, you'll be well.

I'll bring it up for you.

No.

Your wounds are more severe, you take it.

No, don't come in.

Granny.

There's only the two of us here.

Why keep calling Granny over and over?

Can't you say it a little less?

I can do that.

As long as you eat this pill.

Granny.

Open the door.

Let me pass you the pill.

Granny?

I said I don't want it.

You already left.

Why did you come back?

I said I would protect you.

How can I go back on my word?

Besides...

I'm afraid I...

What're you afraid of?

I'm afraid if I really left you

I wouldn't find another person in this world who treats me so kindly.

The words out of your mouth are never serious.

No wonder your Little Sister doesn't like you.

You're angry, aren't you?

No.

I've never been serious when I talk.

Little Sister doesn't like me.

Master and Headmistress doesn't like me either.

Don't be sad.

Even if they don't like you

won't there still be plenty of others in this world who like you?

So what if they do?

So what if they don't?

Granny.

Are you really of the demonic cult?

Didn't that monk just now already tell you?

You should get out of here quickly.

So as to avoid a misunderstanding and sullying your reputation.

I never had any reputation to begin with.

It's a pity your flute broke.

Otherwise, we can be like Uncle Liu and Elder Qu

and play a qin and flute duet.

What are you blabbering on about?

I'm not blabbering.

I didn't expect at the moment of my death

the one accompanying me would be a Granny I've never seen.

Stop thinking such thoughts.

Hurry and take the pill.

I'm about to die anyway.

Why waste such a precious medicinal pill?

Furthermore, Granny is the elder.

You should accept the courtesy.

Stop arguing about it.

You take it.

Or else, Granny will get angry.

Okay.

I shall obey then.

It's so bitter.

It hurts! It hurts!

This medicine is poisoned!

It hurts so much.

Sacred Lady?

You are the Sacred Lady?

I am the Sacred Lady so what?

You lied to me?

I did not!

You're the one who called me Granny!

I am such a fool.

I should've already known.

You sent Laotouzi, Zu Qianqiu and the rest to come to me

so my master would suspect me.

You already have the music score.

Why must you still trouble me?

- I didn't! - You did!

I...

You...

Good fall.

I should just die from it.

Just don't mind me anymore.

Get the fire big and strong.

Laotouzi.

I think I hear people speaking.

Don't scare me like that!

No, no... Really.

It sounds like Young Master Linghu and Sacred Lady.

What?

You heard Sacred Lady and Master Linghu talking?

What were they saying?

Of course it's lover's talk.

Hold this.

What kind of lover's talk?

Think about it.

If the two of them get together what would they be like?

What would they be like?

The hero and the beauty.

They are the perfect match!

I say, if you want to live just leave them alone.

Don't think about anything.

Even if you run into them you'd best run away quickly.

I don't think Sacred Lady will be here.

Perhaps we should get off the mountain.

Keep looking.

The Shaolin disciple at the inn down the mountain was killed by the Sacred Lady.

Sacred Lady must be around here.

Catch.

We setup that banquet for Young Master Linghu.

She was quite angry about it.

When we see Sacred Lady before we get a word off

she'll already...

That is quite true.

However, Blackwood Cliff wants to capture Sacred Lady?

This is an extraordinarily big matter.

Sacred Lady has always treated us well.

We cannot just watch her be killed.

That's right.

If she is captured by the Cult Master our people will all be in big trouble.

Without Sacred Lady, the Brain Pill of the Three Corpses cannot be controlled.

It'll be more painful than death.

If Sacred Lady meets her demise let us just kill ourselves and be done with it.

If only Young Master Linghu was here

we could tell him about Blackwood Cliff and have him pass it on to Sacred Lady.

Perhaps, if young Master Linghu speaks on our behalf

the Sacred Lady would show mercy and remove the Brain Pill of the Three Corpses.

Young Master Linghu is a man of passion and honor.

I'm sure he'll be willing to help us.

Fate brings people together after all.

I pray that young Master Linghu does not waste the Lady's good intentions.

It is difficult to know one's heart.

Young Master Linghu is nice to us.

But he is still the eldest disciple of Mount Hua.

- Will he not stand for Mount Hua... - What's so great about Mount Hua Sect?

Sacred Lady is the Sacred Lady of the Sun Moon Holy Cult.

Mount Hua Sect is indeed nothing special.

But the cult and these orthodox sects have too deep of a history.

You saw that Yue Buqun looking down on us.

Young Master Linghu respects his Master.

If Yue Buqun doesn't agree to it

the union between Master Linghu and Sacred Lady would be...

Right.

Perhaps we should just capture Yue Buqun and force him to agree.

If the Headmaster of Mount Hua Sect proposes the marriage to the Sacred Lady

Sacred Lady would be overjoyed.

So right!

Just pray that young Master Linghu recovers soon

and the two of them can become a wonderful pair.

Then, the martial arts world can truly be at peace!

Right!

Who's spewing a bunch of nonsense here?

Please forgive us, Sacred Lady.

We're talking nonsense.

We'll go to the far west and never return here to the central plains.

Let's quickly go.

Hold it.

Who told you to go to the far west?

I have a mission for you two.

Please give your orders.

We will give it our all.

I want to kill someone but I can't find him at the moment.

Pass the word to the martial arts world.

Whoever kills this man will be heavily rewarded by me.

A reward is too generous.

As long as Sacred Lady wants this man dead

we'll chase him to the end of the earth and kill him.

Please tell us Sacred Lady.

Which evil man do you wish killed?

This man is a Mount Hua Sect disciple.

Last name Linghu.

First name Chong.
