[Candle in the Tomb]

[Episode 18]

Slowly.

Hey... Step back...

Be careful.

Hu! What's the situation over there?

Look.

There are traces of it getting
bombed with explosives.

There are also traces of this
getting lifted by a crowbar.

Do you think this has something to do
with the owner of the notebook?

It's very likely.

Judging from the traces of the damage, it
doesn't look like it was done recently.

It looks like it's been decades.

It's possible that there
was more than one group here.

Look at how thick
the rock entranceway is.

And it's so deep underground.

If I'm not wrong, it's very likely that
the tomb of the Jingjue queen is inside.

Then that's our goal.

I'm just worried that
everything went too smoothly.

Since more than one group has been here,
why hasn't there been any records or it?

I understand your worry.

But no matter what, I must
see Jingjue queen's tomb.

Don't be so anxious.

I'm more worried about this gate.

If it suddenly comes down,
no one will ever be able to get out.

How about this?

Let's discuss with Professor Chen.
What do you think?

I must go in and take a look.

What exactly does the
Jingjue queen's tomb looks like?

Has it been wrecked and raided?

If I don't see it with my own eyes,
I'll die with regrets.

I must go in, even if it's for
Comrade Hao Ai Guo.

I must fulfill his lifelong wish.

- Professor.
- Professor, we'll go with you.

Yes, we'll go together.

I must go,
no matter what the situation is.

Why don't we do this?

I'll go inside by myself
to take a look first.

If there aren't any problems,
everyone else can come in.

If I go in and don't come out
after more than four or five hours

you guys shouldn't go in.

Don't wait for me and just leave.

No. I'll go in with you.
We can look out for each other.

I can go by myself.
I'm a lucky person. You stay.

If anything bad happens

you have to be responsible
for bringing everyone back safely.

All right, stop making
it sound so tragic.

I'll go with you.

Stop joking.

If I go by myself, it's easy for me
to dodge dangers by myself.

If you go, I really won't
be able to look out for you.

Who knows, I might be the one looking
out for you.

I can't let you go into
Jingjue queen's tomb by yourself.

Fine, then we'll both go together.

Fatso, you stay here.

You must look after everyone.

Why am I always the one looking after
everyone like a kindergarten teacher?

Stop being so fussy.

There is no high class or
low class job in the revolution.

Chu Jian, gun.

A rifle is different from a pistol.

Do you know how to use it?

Of course I do.

My pistol is out of bullets.

Be careful.

We must be careful going inside.

We must be especially careful
not to trigger any mechanisms.

We must also be vigilant
of those weird snakes.

They're very fast and hard to dodge.

Please protect me, ancestors.

Be careful.

Why haven't we gotten anywhere yet?

Do you think we're already in the
passageway to the queen's tomb?

I really can't tell.

The tombs of the central plains
wouldn't have such a long passageway.

But since someone has been here before,
they have helped us.

If there are any hidden traps,
there will be traces of them.

Hu, let me ask you something.

You must answer me honestly.

Are you a tomb raider?

How is that possible?

Why would you think that?

I'm only guessing.

I thought about it, so I asked.

I think you're very familiar with
the positioning of the metal divisions

which has stopped being passed on
and with the all kinds of ancient tombs.

You're so familiar with them
like they're your backyard.

You really seem like a tomb raider.

Didn't I tell you?

This is a skill that's been
passed down in my family.

My grandfather was a famous
feng shui master in our village.

He always gave others
pointers about their homes.

My father was in the army his whole life,
so he didn't learn it

so it was passed on to me.

And then it became a hobby.

Don't you know my personality?

I like studying things meticulously.

I understand.

Do you know about comrade Lei Feng?

Who?

Comrade Lei Feng's spirit can be
summed up in one word, "meticulous."

Of course, that's just
my personal understanding.

Xiao Ye, do you want more?

Xiao Ye, here, have some more.

Chu Jian, come here.

Professor.

Oh my God.

Brother Wang.

Brother Wang.

Yes?

I want to ask you something.

What is that you want to ask?

Are we that childish?

You feel like a kindergarten teacher
when you're with us?

I was just saying that as a joke to Hu.

Why did you take me seriously?

Xiao Ye! Is yours out of batteries?

I have batteries. I'll get them for you.

Go, go! Go do your work.

Don't idle around here. Go.

Here you go.

Thank you, Brother Wang.

You're welcome.

Professor, Chu Jian,
let me know if you need anything.

It won't be a problem.

There's no other way to go.
We're at the end.

Hey! What are you doing?
Stop walking forward.

Don't worry. I just want to
see how far down it goes.

Maybe the queen's tomb is down there.

After she was buried

the Jingjue people destroyed
the parts that connected to it.

Then no one could disturb
the queen's peace.

Good, then we'll head back.

Miss Yang.

You also see all the gold, silver,
and treasures, right?

I see them.

Do you not see them?

I see them.

I just... I just think it's unreal.

So what are you thinking now?

What could I be thinking?

I'm just wondering if these are the
Jingjue queen's funeral artifacts.

If they really are,
then we're really close to her tomb.

Don't guess anymore.
We'll just go down and find out.

Look over here.

This might be a rope ladder left behind
by the previous group of explorers.

It looks stable, but we don't know
how long it's been here.

It's better to go back and get our own.

Wait.

Have you thought about
why the explorers who were here

never took any of the treasure
when there is much down there?

If we put it nicely, they're explorers.

But they're really just thieves
who came to China to steal things.

You must know that thieves
don't leave empty-handed.

You mean to say that there are things
like traps or beasts down there?

That's right. That's what I mean.

Money doesn't fall from the sky.

The more simple something looks,
the more complicated it really is.

Just like how there's so much
treasure beneath us right now.

It's within reach,
but I feel really uneasy inside.

Do you remember what An Li Man said
about the curse of the Black forest?

No matter who it is, if someone
dares to take anything from here

they will be buried with it
in the Black Desert forever.

That curse was also mentioned in the
Great Tang Records

of the Western Regions.

The city that was buried by the
Black Desert is called Jieluojialai.

I don't think the curse
is a problem for us.

Professor Chen and the others
are archaeologists.

They definitely won't take these things.

What do you mean?

I'm worried about Fatso.

What are you trying to say?

My buddy looks like a thief?

I'm telling you, we may be poor,
but we have dignity.

I swear on my life

that as long as I tell Fatso Wang not to
take any of this, he won't.

On the contrary, back in 1900

when the Eight-Nation Alliance
came in and killed so many people

they took a lot of treasures.
You Americans were a part of that group.

And now you're talking about us stealing?

I get so angry when you say that.

You get so serious
when I talk about Fatso.

What? Am I wrong?

Let's go.

Go?

Xiao Ye, how do you feel now?

A lot better. I feel stronger
now that I've had water.

That's good.

Xiao Chu, Xiao Sa, you must fill up
all the canteens.

There mustn't be any more problems.

Xiao Wang.

- Yes?
- What are you doing?

Professor.

I'm worried since Hu isn't back yet.

I'm also worried about them.

Yes.

I wonder what's going on
behind the gate.

Why don't you just go and see?

There's nothing dangerous here.

Okay. I'll go take a look then.

Okay, okay.

Professor, do you think it's possible
that the Jingjue queen's treasures

are buried under this river?

It's not impossible.

What? Did you find something?

What could I have found?

I'm just asking.

I'll go over and take a look.

Hu, you're finally back.

Why did you come over?
Who let you come over?

I have something to tell you.

What is it?

Excuse me. You guys can talk.
I'll head over first.

Go slowly.

I'll be there soon.

Why are you being so sneaky?

Look at what this is!

It's a gold coin.

They don't know about it.
I found it in the river.

One gold coin.

What is it?

Did you find something in there?

Is it treasure?

What did I tell you?

I knew there would be treasure here!

You must take me seriously from now on.

Is there a lot?

There is a lot. A ton.

But that's not what's important.

What's important is that Shirley
suspects we're tomb raiders.

She asked me while we were inside.

That's impossible. How did she know?

How is it impossible?

How many times did you let it slip?

You're lucky that the professor and
those intellectuals are so simple.

Anyone else could tell!

At the very least, they would suspect us.

Then why did that American come here?

She's not being transparent about it.

Can you say for sure that she
didn't come here for the treasure?

That's the situation. Let's pack up.

I'm telling you, I think she's
a KGB agent that was sent by the US.

What? Since when did the US and
Soviet Union work together?

Then what do they call American spies?

Enough already.

Think positively about others.

Slowly.

Hu, I heard that the Jingjue
queen's tomb is down there.

Yes, that's what we think.

- But Professor--
- Shirley, you guys lead the way.

- Xiao Sa.
- Chu Jian, give me more bullets.

I don't have any more.

Hu, do you have any rifle bullets?

- Fatso.
- Yes?

Give Miss Yang some bullets.

Thank you. Thanks.

Hey, Hu.

Why do I feel like she
looks at you differently?

- Shirley, slowly.
- Is she interested in you?

Since when did it start?

I didn't see anything, but you did?

I think something is
wrong with your eyes.

I...

I'm not interested in her.

No one wants a woman that's too strong.

Besides, it's not like I can take
an American girl home, right?

Comrade Ba Yi,
it's good that you're aware of that.

You must resist her sugar-coated bullets.

You can't let us down.

Xiao Ye, be careful.

Hu, do you have the Mojin amulet
and the black donkey's hoof?

I do. Don't mess around
when we get in there.

Don't worry.

Where is the treasure?

These must be the
Jingjue queen's funeral artifacts.

Her tomb must be here.

Is this real? It's amazing!

Are we really here, Professor?

Do you even need to ask?

Let's stop staring from up here.
Let's go down!

Let's leave here before it gets dark.

- Wait!
- Professor.

The same rules apply.

I'll go first. You take the back.

No, why am I in the back again?

You always tell me to take the back.

Are you cursing me?

Hu, you should only tell someone to
take the back when you're retreating.

We're forging ahead by going down there.

See?

Is that so?

It's because I've always
been victorious in battle.

I've simply never retreated.

Here, take this.

Come on.

Hurry down.

I'm just touching it. I won't take any.

I'm telling you, you must not take any.
They're all watching from up there.

Okay, I know, I know.

Slowly.

Oh my gosh.

- Hu.
- Yes?

All of the treasures here are priceless.

You must tell everyone to be careful.

We have to be especially
careful with every step.

Don't worry. I will tell everyone.

Okay...

Slowly, Xiao Sa.

Xiao Sa, here.

Come on.

Help me take a picture.

Brother Wang, my camera
is for recording information.

I have to follow the rules.
I can't take a picture for you.

- Just one picture.
- Xiao Sa.

- Yes?
- Just take one for Wang.

We've been through so much
the whole journey.

What's the harm in one picture?

Go ahead. I'll take the responsibility.

Thank you, Professor!

Come on.

Hu, it's my first time seeing
many of the different relics here.

Come here. Take another one closer.

Come on.

What's going on? Take another one for me.

Wang, what are you doing?

Why is this thing in my hand?

I didn't want to take it!

This... this... Am I being controlled?
What's going on?

Shut up!

Did my words go in one ear
and out the other?

How many times did I tell you
not to take any of the things here?

I didn't want to take any!
Why is this in my hand?

Wang, everything here are historical
relics that belong to the state.

Put it back!

I will put it back.

I've put it back.

Do you have more in your pocket?

No! I...

Take it out.

I... no...

This...

This isn't... I...

This isn't from here.

Put it down!

Put it down immediately!

Okay. I'll put it down.

I've put it down.

Wang, when I first started in archaeology

I was also tempted
by the treasures I saw.

It's okay. This is human nature.

You'll build up resistance
as you see more treasures.

We'll end this here today.

No one should talk about
this when we go back.

Thank you, Professor.

Thank you, everyone.

Hey! There's light up ahead.

Let's go. Let's hurry up and go forward.

Okay.

Chu Jian, give it to me.

- Here.
- Okay.

- Let's go, Fatso.
- Give it to me.

Let's go.

Fatso, you cover the back.

Okay.

Brother Wang.

Is this the Devil's Cave
from the legends?

This must be the holy place
of the Jingjue Kingdom.

The name Devil's Cave must
have come about because of this.

What Devil's Cave?

What are you guys saying?

According to legend, Jingjue Kingdom
people were mostly Devil's Cave Dwellers.

They're called Devil's Cave Dwellers

because they guard a cave
that's like a bottomless abyss.

But where exactly does the bottom
of the Devil's Cave end?

You must not keep going forward.

I've been doing research
for half my life.

I always thought the Jingjue
legends were only legends.

I never would've imagined getting
to see such a large cave today!

Professor, don't get so excited.

How can I not be excited?

This is the other world
that is talked about

in the Devil's Cave Dweller's legends.

Other world?

The imaginary dimension!

Then you mean if we fall from here

we won't fall to our deaths,
but instead we would disappear?

We'll go to an unknown world
and won't be able to come back.

It's very likely that this is a place
that connects to the imaginary dimension.

It could also be a place
that connects to hell.

I can't. Even just seeing it
makes my legs go numb.

It's nothing.

Fatso has been afraid of heights
since he was a kid.

It's so deep and
you guys make it sound so scary.

Are you guys not afraid at all?

We should use a safety rope.

Hu, hold on to me.

What do you want to do?

I think there's something up there.

Come on.

Shirley, be careful.

Do you want to die?

You've gone mad.

There's something up there.

What thing?

There's a large rock pillar up there.

There's something on top of it,
but I can't see what it is.

Who cares what's up there.
Wouldn't we die if we go up there?

There's a path over here.

Where's the path?

Miss Yang.

Let's go. Everyone, be careful.

Okay.

Be careful.

Come on.

Why is there a large log tied up there?

It is probably Kunlun holy wood.

What is that?

My grandfather once said the best
material for coffins is yinchen wood.

But there's a top quality wood
that's even better, Kunlun holy wood.

Even if there's only one piece

it would never wither when not in soil,
without water, or sunlight.

There's such a miraculous
kind of wood on earth?

Even more miraculous is that

if a body is put in there, it won't decay
for tens of thousands of years.

Hu, according to what you're saying

it's very likely that the Jingjue queen
is in that miraculous wood.

It's extremely likely.

In the ancient books,

it's written that the holy wood is as
old as Kunlun Mountain.

Back then Qin Shi Huang wanted to
find that holy wood for his coffin.

Then that log must be more
valuable than all other coffins!

- Slowly!
- Professor.

Everyone, follow along.

Watch your step.

It looks like there's something
on the holy wood.

- Professor!
- Professor!

You have to look after him!
That scared me to death.

Professor, my heart almost
leaped out of my chest.

I'm fine. I just kept looking up.

Look.

What's on top of the holy wood?

What is it?

It looks like a huge taro.

They didn't treat a seed
as the Jingjue queen

and buried it here so that
a taro grew out of it, right?

Of course not.

This is likely the fragrant corpse
devil's taro of the legends.

I really can't believe this exists.
