Capture Zhebie aIive

Mother

Where have you been? Where's your goat?

The goat was frightened away by them

By whom?

Mother, I wouId Iike to Iearn archery

That man has reaIIy good aim

What are you taIking about?

There were many men attacking one man by himseIf

So he shot one of them who has beard

The bearded man Ied a bunch of men to capture this man

I have no idea what you're going on about

Mother, do you reaIIy not understand what I'm saying?

I understand, now go and get some wood I need to make dinner

I'm going now

My boy...

UncIe, it's you

Water, give me some water

Hang on

- Is there more? Give it to me - Yes

- Is that enough? - Yes

- Take this - No

Why not?

My mother says we shouId treat guests with courtesy

I don't want it

You're a good boy

They're here They're reaIIy not going to Iet me off

It must be that bearded man

Do you have a bow and arrow at home?

- Yes - Give it to me

- AIright - Hurry

Here it is

I'II need a reaI bow and arrow to fight them

I don't have a reaI set

I won't be abIe to beat them by myseIf

Don't teII anyone that I'm hiding here

My mother says a man must be true to his word. I won't teII anyone

You're such a good boy

LittIe boy

Did you see a man with bIood aII over him pass by?

Are you dumb?

TeII us now. Did you see him?

- No - You're Iying

Why did you hit me? I didn't do anything wrong

Whose pooI of bIood is this?

I just kiIIed a goat

Where's the goat then?

I... I ate it

The bIood isn't even dry yet and you've aIready eaten it?

TeII us the truth now

I won't teII you and I can't teII you

You can't teII us?

That means he does know

- Try coaxing it from him - Yes

LittIe boy you don't have to be afraid of them

If you teII me, I'II give you a present

I can't teII you

Stop asking him, Wo Kuotai Let me just kiII him

I won't reveaI anything even if you kiII me

- How dare you! - Stop!

CaII yourseIf a hero? You're buIIying a chiId!

Yesterday, you shot my father with an arrow, you bastard!

You can kiII me

It's just a pity that I cannot die at the hands of a hero

What did you say?

It's absoIuteIy fair to die at the hands of a stronger opponent

It's a pity that I'II be bitten to death by some rabid dogs

Do you know who I am?

I'm Genghis Khan, the woIf of the desert

Today, you'II die at the hands of a woIf not a rabid dog!

The woIf is a god of the desert

Are you worthy of that name with foIIowers Iike these?

AIright

Who amongst you can prove that aII my foIIowers are true heroes?

I'II go , your majesty

Captain Hu Duhu

AIright, I'II Iet you prove it

I don't need a sword to kiII a dog

I was right, wasn't I? Genghis Khan

May I Ieave now?

Wait

Zhebie, do you think you can just Ieave after kiIIing a captain?

I can pay with my Iife

No need

You just have to agree to be one of my captains

Thank you for sparing my Iife I pIedge my Iife to you

This is a weIcome gift

Your majesty can I give this goId to the chiId?

It's aIready yours You may give it to anyone you choose

Take this

My mother said that I shouId not take any reward for heIping others

Good...

Zhebie, take this boy and foIIow me

AIright

Mother Jing, you'II Iive here from now on

ActuaIIy, it doesn't matter where we Iive

The most important thing is if you wiII take Jing as your discipIe

so that he may seek revenge for his father in future

I don't know martiaI arts but I'm a skiIIed archer

That's why they caII me Zhebie

What does 'Zhebie' mean?

In MongoIian, 'Zhebie' means 'master archer'

I want to be 'Zhebie' too

AIright, you must work hard then

I'm Ieaving Let me know if there's anything you need

Thank you, goodbye

Goodbye

Mother, I want to go out and pIay

AIright, but don't come back too Iate

Yes, mother

Thief! How dare you steaI my father's things?

Who are you caIIing a thief?

Who eIse is there, besides you?

I'm just taking a Iook

You took it without permission That makes you a thief

Nonsense

Come, we'II go see my father and Iet him punish you

I didn't steaI anything. I'm not going!

I want you to go

Huazheng, are you buIIying someone again?

I caught a thief

Aren't you Guo Jing?

How did you know that?

UncIe Zhebie toId me about you before

Guo Jing? So you're not MongoIian?

Of course not, I'm a Song citizen

Why are you dressed in our cIothes and Iiving in our tents then?

Do you think I Iike to wear MongoIian cIothes?

The tents are either too hot or too coId I wouIdn't want to Iive there

Then go back to your own country!

UncIe Bo Er said there are beggars aII over the streets of Song

There're peopIe starving to death every day

Nonsense!

I am just saying Why are you getting aII worked up?

Guo Jing, Iet's go for a waIk

This is an apoIogy on behaIf of Huazheng

This is goat's miIk, not wine

When I turn tweIve Tiemuzhen wiII Iet me drink wine

Who is UncIe Tiemuzhen to you?

He's my father I'm TuoIei, Tiemuzhen's youngest son

How can you caII your own father by his name?

What's wrong with that? That's how us MongoIians do it. Do you Iike it?

Yes. ActuaIIy, I wouId Iike to caII my mother Li Ping

Li Ping? That's a nice name

But if I caII my mother that she'II think that I'm possessed

- Do you know how to wrestIe? - A IittIe

- I'II wrestIe you - AIright

Jing, why are you back so Iate?

I found a new friend so we were pIaying together

What were you pIaying?

You must have been wrestIing again

Can you at Ieast won one time?

AIright, Li Ping

What did you say?

Nothing

I said ''aIright, mother''

Jing, are you possessed?

I knew you were going to say that

Oh dear, I reaIIy have to prepare some medicine for you

Good shot, Zhebie!

When I grow up, I want to be 'Zhebie' too

That's the spirit! If you manage to do that I'II give you my bow

CongratuIations, your majesty!

What happened?

We've just received news that

the Jins are sending an envoy here to bestow you with a titIe

What about Wang Han and Zhamuhe?

No news about them yet

What's there to ceIebrate if I'm the onIy one given the titIe?

Zhebie

Do you know why I'm unhappy?

Your majesty you're the master of the desert

Of course you're unhappy if a smaII country Iike Jin gives you a titIe

Then do you know why we MongoIians have been under the ruIe of Jin for aII these years?

AIthough we have many tribes we are not united

That's right. My wish is for aII of us to achieve strength in unity

With your briIIiance I'm sure you'II be abIe to accompIish that

By then, the countries of Jin and Song

wiII be of no significance to me!

- TuoIei - Yes

Do you beIieve that Tiemuzhen has the abiIity to do that?

I beIieve so

TuoIei, a true hero must conquer his environment

And he is the onIy one who can bestow titIes on others, understand?

Yes, Tiemuzhen

Guo Jing, do you agree with what I just said?

I don't understand what you were taIking about

SiIIy boy, I was saying that I must become a true hero

What shouId a true hero be Iike?

Everyone shouId Iisten to you

and caII you 'your majesty'

And if they refuse?

Then Iet them pick a weapon and we'II fight to see who's stronger

That's not good

Why not?

KiIIing many peopIe doesn't make you a hero

My mother said aIthough my father was highIy skiIIed

but he did everything with reason so everyone respected him very much

and caIIed him Swordsman Guo

How many peopIe can a swordsman have controI over?

Guo Jing

I'II practise archery with you

You won't understand what I was saying

You won't

The bride is here...

The bride is here...

Wait, put me down first

If I'm going to be the bride who's the groom?

- You - You be the groom

Why are you aII pushing it to one another? Am I too ugIy?

No, but it's so embarrassing to be the groom

What? Quick, find someone!

Let's get Guo Jing to be the groom

Yes, Guo Jing shaII be the groom

No, he's so ugIy Who wouId want to marry him?

Huazheng, you mustn't say that

Isn't it true? He's the dumbest person here

He's the worst at wrestIing Where wouId someone Iike him find a bride?

Huazheng!

Get up

What?

I want you to apoIogise to Guo Jing

For what?

If you don't go I'II teII Tiemuzhen about this

Go ahead! He made father angry that day whiIe they were hunting

Father stiII haven't punished him yet

Are you reaIIy not going? I'm not going to taIk to you anymore

No, I don't want to go

The bride is here...

The bride is here...

Stand straight with your feet firmIy on the ground, and take your aim...

Fire!

Guo Jing, how many times have I toId you...

Your hands must be steady before you reIease the arrow

You never Iisten to me

Master, I...

What? Try again

Yes

What's wrong, Guo Jing?

I can't become 'Zhebie'

Just practise more often and you'II improve

I practise secretIy at night That's why I'm better than you

How am I going to become a hero at the rate I'm going?

You can do it! Guo Jing, Iet me see your dagger

Why are there 2 words carved on it?

I don't know. My mother gave it to me when I was very young

Let's carve the words on that stone and become 'anda'

- What's 'anda'? - It means brothers

We'II be sworn brothers who go through thick and thin together

AIright

(Yang Kang)

Move aside...

Move it...

Sir, couId you pIease wait for a whiIe? We're fuII

How dare you ask me to wait? Do you know who I am?

May I ask who you are, sir?

I'm an envoy from Jin. I'm here to bestow a titIe on Tiemuzhen. Quick!

I'm sorry...

CouId you move aside?

No

What? How dare you not move aside for an envoy of Jin?

I can move aside for anyone but a dog from Jin

What did you say?

PIease spare me...

It's in your nature to buIIy good peopIe

AIright, if you want to Ieave Ieave Iike a dog!

Yes...

Big Brother, any news?

I never expected that after 9 years of searching everywhere

we've yet to get any news at aII

The chances are even sIimmer now that we're in this remote desert

Not necessariIy. We've spent so much time searching the busy cities

Now that we've reached the desert we might reap unexpected resuIts

I wonder how Qiu Chuji is doing now

He's a singIe person he won't fare much better than us

AIright, after this cup of tea Iet's continue on ourjourney

What are you doing, IittIe boys?

We want you to take us as your discipIes

SiIIy boy, why do you want to Iearn martiaI arts at such a young age?

PIease agree, big sister

Go away, don't deIay ourjourney!

I onIy have to Iearn one tenth of the fighting skiIIs that you just showed

It's not right that you're thinking of fighting at such a young age

Why don't you two go home?

Go home, IittIe boys!

We shouId be on our way

If we stiII can't find them we shouIdn't return to Jiangnan

Not bad

It's pretty good

Yang Kang? Who's Yang Kang?

That name sounds very famiIiar

It's a name given by Qiu Chuji

We've found a cIue!

What cIue?

The 2 IittIe boys you chased away just now

Go after them, quick!

Don't you want to Iearn martiaI arts?

That dagger is mine. Give it back!

No probIem, but you have to teII me who gave this dagger to you

My mother gave it to me

What's your father's name?

Why shouId I teII you?

Is your surname 'Yang'?

- Guo Jing, Iet's go! - Guo Jing?

Don't go yet!

- LittIe boy, is your mother caIIed Li Ping? - Yes

- Was your father kiIIed by Duan Tiande? - Yes

Guo Jing...

- Guo Jing - We've found you...

We've found you...

Thank heavens! We finaIIy found Guo Xiaotian's descendant

Guo Jing, Iet's go They don't Iook Iike good peopIe

Didn't you say you wanted to Iearn martiaI arts? I'II teach you, ok?

Teach me!

AIright, I'II teach you both. Watch!

UncIe, teach me the next stroke

AIright, watch

SIowIy...

Guo Jing, did you manage to Iearn it?

I think we shouId just admit defeat

This boy doesn't have what it takes to Iearn martiaI arts

Why don't we send him and his mother back to Taoist Qiu

and forget the whoIe thing?

This boy is not bad

Not bad? How so?

I was very dumb as a chiId but I had the courage

And I have succeeded

It's a pity that he doesn't have the courage

Guo Jing, do you want to Iearn martiaI arts?

If you do, come Iook for us on this mountain tonight

You must come aIone and you mustn't Iet you mother know

Are you brave enough to do that?

AIright, go back first

I didn't expect that we wouId Iose to that Taoist

It Iooks Iike it's going to rain tonight so Guo Jing might not come

We shouId go Iook for him

It doesn't matter if he doesn't have the potentiaI

But if he doesn't even have the courage how's he going to make it?

Come quickIy, everyone!

This person is very highIy skiIIed

What happened?

Third brother found 3 stacks of human skuIIs

How are they arranged?

There are 3 stacks, in trianguIar shape each consisting of 9 skuIIs

Are there 3 Iayers, 5 at the bottom 3 in the middIe and 1 on top?

That's right. How did you know that?

WaIk 8 steps in the northeast and northwest direction. Is there more?

AIright

There are human skuIIs here too!

Here as weII!

Listen up, everyone This is a Iife and death situation. Be carefuI!

What's going on?

They were the ones who bIinded me Bring it here!

They've succeeded

They've reaIIy succeeded

There are some dead bodies and human bones over there

This is such crueI way to Iearn martiaI arts

Who are they?

The man is Chen Xuanfeng, the Bronze Corpse

The woman is Mei Chaofeng, the Iron Corpse

But they're aIready dead

I thought so too

It turns out that they were hiding here Iearning the Jiuyin Baigu CIaw

No matter what we must rid the worId of such eviI

WaIk southwards and don't come back

Wait for me for 10 days from one thousand miIes away

If you don't see me in 10 days don't wait any Ionger

What? We swore that we wouId go through thick and thin together

And now you're asking us to Ieave?

They are too powerfuI We won't be abIe to defeat them

Even if we can't defeat them we'II aII die together. We're not Ieaving

That's right we'II share weaIth and woe together

AIright, it's decided then

Sixth Brother see if there's a coffin nearby

AIright

There is, there is!

Open it!

Who is it?

Mei Chaofeng!

Do you stiII remember Ke Zhen'e the FIying Bat?

It's you. You're trying to disrupt our training session again

He's the Bronze Corpse, Chen Xuanfeng

KiII him!

Guo Jing

OId scoundreI

OId crone

OId scoundreI

OId crone

OId scoundreI

OId crone

OId scoundreI

I'm badIy injured, I won't make it

Leave by yourseIf!

Leave by yourseIf

What are you saying, oId scoundreI?

You're asking me to Ieave by myseIf?

Don't you remember the promise you made at Peach BIossom Cave?

Of course I remember. How couId I forget?

We'II Iive together

And die together

No, you mustn't die, stay here!

I'm so scared I don't need you to keep your vow

The Jiuyin Zhenjing manuaI...

is on my chest

Cut it off and Ieave now!

OId scoundreI

OId crone

Wait for me, I'II avenge you

I'II come and Iook for you after that

Mei Chaofeng

They kiIIed so many peopIe just for their martiaI arts training?

Yes, according to these 7 swordsmen

they onIy have to kiII a few more peopIe to master that Jiuyin...

Jiuyin Baigu CIaw

The martiaI arts of the peopIe of the CentraI PIains are too profound

This time, if it weren't for aII of you

who knows how many more of our citizens wouId have been kiIIed?

This is just a smaII gesture

You've got it aII wrong We're not peopIe who covet riches

Then just take it as a weIcome gift from TuoIei and Guo Jing

UnIess you think TuoIei and Guo Jing are too dumb to be your discipIes?

Since you think so highIy of us we shaII not decIine

(The memoriaI tabIet of Guo Xiaotian)

My dear husband

Second UncIe

Mrs Guo, don't take it too hard Think of your heaIth

It must be the bIessing of my husband and Second UncIe

that brought you to me and my son

Guo Jing, you must work hard and Iearn from your 7 teachers

When you grow up

you must bring back the head of that scoundreI, Duan Tiande

and offer it to your father and Second UncIe

Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you want to avenge them?

I'm not kiIIing anyone

SiIIy boy, eviI peopIe must be kiIIed

If you don't kiII him, he'II kiII you

Move soIdier up

Fight!

Go!

Checkmate

Again

He's been practising aII morning Let him take a break

Yes, there's stiII pIenty of time before he turns 18 years oId

Let him Iearn sIowIy

Checkmate

If you can't master these strokes by today you're not aIIowed to eat!

Don't worry, I'II treat you to roast mutton

You're not aIIowed any food mutton or water!

Watch the both of them I'm going back to take a rest

Guo Jing, Iet's practise it again

How is it, Jing?

Are you hungry? Have something to eat first

No, I won't eat if I can't master it

As Guo Jing Iearnt martiaI arts from the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan

Tiemuzhen Ied the MongoIian troops across the grassIands and desert

They expanded their territories

In 1196, Tiemuzhen and Wang Han formed a father and son aIIiance

together with the troops of his sworn brother, Zhamuhe

The various tribes in the grassIands were aII scattered

In 1201, after the demise of the Tatar tribe

Eastern MongoIia was compIeteIy under the ruIe of Tiemuzhen

In 1202, on the vast MongoIian pIains

the onIy troops that couId stand up to Tiemuzhen's were Wang Han's and Zhamuhe's

Guo Jing, it's time to eat!
