Original subtitles

lf you don't say anything l can't help you

Are they after your parents?

Don't be afraid, l'll help you

My parents are dead

Then there's no point in me staying here There isn't anything fun to do

Sir

Don't call me that, call me Saint Zhou

My brother has been captured by people from the lron Palm Sect

What? The people from the lron Palm Sect are bullying my brother?

How dare they! l'm going to beat them up

until their iron palms become chicken palms goose palms, and duck palms

Nianci

l will find you

l'll definitely find you

Rong-er

There isn't much hope for us

Are you alright?

We're going to die anyway there's nothing else to it

Brother Jing, promise me something

What?

Leave me behind and fight your way out

Leave when you get the chance to

l can't leave you behind

lf you stay with me, you'll surely die

lf you fight your way out there may be some hope

So what if l manage to escape? My life would have no meaning without you

Brother Jing

l won't leave

Alright, then let's go back and challenge Qiu Qianren to a duel to the death together

lt's better than staying here and freezing to death

Alright

Rong-er

What's wrong?

This stone wall seems slightly warm

Yes, why is that?

Try breaking the stone wall with your palms

lt's still a dead end

There's something strange about this secret chamber

No wonder! This oil is made from the Five Soul Flowers of the Heavenly Mountain

And the lamp wick is specially made so it won't go out for 100 years

lt's a pity that few people can live for that long

What's the use of living for so long?

The important thing is that

the people you love the most are with you when you die

Then even if you have to die you'll die peacefully

Brother Jing, look!

My wrath bristles through my helm

the rain stops as l stand by the rail l look up towards the sky...

lt's ''The River Runs Red!''

We found it! This box must contain the Book of Wu Mu

Open it

So what if it is the Book? We're in such a dangerous situation right now

lt's useless even if we find it

ls this really Heaven's will?

We tried so hard to find it in the past

But now that we've found it it doesn't matter anymore

Even if this book could really save the Song empire

but what's the use if we can't even bring it out now?

This Book contains the important military stratagems of Yue Fei

lt concerns everything in society lt mustn't fall into the wrong hands

Within the box are many poisonous needles

Those who are ignorant will be in a hurry to stake their claim on the Book

Therefore, they will die on the spot

Those who manage to avoid the needles are brave and virtuous

Make the best use of this Book and save the people

lt looks like you were destined to get this book

There must be a way out of here

l think so too, let's try searching again

Brother Jing

This skeleton... lt looks rather strange. lt's very unnatural

- Perhaps he was in agony when he died - No

His finger seems to be pointing at something

The oil lamp

lt could be the way out

That person must have been an evil man when he was alive

What is false may be true what is true may be false

The left one

Rong-er, let's go

Help...

- Brother Jing, just ignore him - No

Brother Jing

Brother Jing, you're too nice

Let's go quickly

What happened?

Are you alright, Brother Jing?

That's strange, l was even more seriously hurt the last time

And you saved me using the Jiuyin Manual Why doesn't it work this time?

- Rong-er, let's try again - Wait

l know

Qiu Qianren's lron Palms have an extremely 'yang' energy

And the Jiuyin Manual has an extremely 'yin' energy

The 2 energies oppose one another

That's why it can't be treated

No... Let's try again

No, if this continues not only will you fail to save me

but you'll suffer from internal injuries too

l'm not afraid. l must try again

Listen to me, stop trying...

l can't just watch you die

Do you know that there are many things we've yet to do?

Though we have the Book of Wu Mu now but l know that without your help

this book is useless to me

Rong-er, l can't do without you

- Let me try again, Rong-er - Alright

But you must stop immediately if anything goes wrong

Alright

Stop!

No!

lf you don't stop, you'll get injured too

l have to try, l must keep trying

Brother Jing

Brother Jing

Brother Jing

Rong-er, you're always writing poems and what not

When l'm with you, l appear to be exceptionally stupid

You're always so nice to others l'll appear exceptionally bad

lf l leave you like this

You must feel very sad

But if l stay by your side

l will only implicate you

Brother Jing

Let's hope we meet in our next life

Rong-er

Rong-er...

Rong-er...

Rong-er...

Rong-er...

Rong-er, why are you hiding from me?

Brother Jing, there are 3 things you can do and 3 things you cannot do

lf you'll listen to me

l'll have peace of mind, even if l die

Rong-er, l'll listen to anything you say

Firstly, after l die you can marry another woman

But that person must be Huazheng

because Huazheng is sincerely in love with you

lf you marry someone else you might get cheated

Rong-er, let's not talk about this

Secondly, you can erect a tombstone for me

but you're not allowed to bring Huazheng along when you visit my grave

because... l'm still rather spiteful

Rong-er...

Thirdly, after l die you can be sad about it for a period of time

But you're not allowed to feel dejected forever

Brother Jing, promise me. Brother Jing

Rong-er, you're not going to die

You're not going to die, Rong-er...

Qiu Qianren?

l didn't expect you to be so blindly in love

Alright, let me do a good deed and send you both to Hell together

Thus, you can be with each other all the time

Brother Jing...

Brother Jing...

Your goose palms are pretty strong

Brother, why are you here?

Take a guess lf you're right, you can ride me like a cow

lf you're wrong l'll ride you like a cow

So you're Zhou Botong, the Old lmp Do pardon me for offending you

That's enough! Old lmp... Am l that old?

l really admire people who are highly skilled in martial arts

Alright, l'll hand Guo Jing and Huang Rong over to you

That's really nice of you

Once l've perfected my lron Palm Technique

l will pit my skills against yours Farewell

Why don't you stay and play with me?

Brother, stop fooling around Rong-er has been seriously injured

Really? That's terrible!

Let's help her into the old temple first

Amitabha, l am Buddha Tell me what you wish to pray for

Brother, stop fooling around and help to save Rong-er

What a spoilsport you are!

Why don't you just use the Jiuyin Manual to save her?

Brother Jing tried it already

lt only made me feel slightly less uncomfortable

But other than that, it's useless

He's useless! Let me try

lt's really difficult

The stronger he is the more difficult it is to treat it

lt really is quite difficult

Even Brother can't do it ls Rong-er really going to die?

Definitely! She'll surely die

But don't worry, l know someone who can sell you a coffin at a cheaper price

Great Buddha, l must be blind

to have become sworn brothers with such a heartless person

- How dare you scold me! - lsn't it true?

Rong-er is about to die. As my Brother you're cracking jokes instead of helping

l'm not that kind of a person!

lt's just that l can't save her

But don't worry, there is someone who can save her

Brother, who is it?

l don't want to talk about him

Brother, who is it?

l told you, l don't want to talk about him!

Tell me, quickly!

Alright... l'll tell you

Walk westwards from that door

After walking for about 2 days you'll see a river

Cross the river and you'll reach a mountain There's a temple on top of that mountain

There's a monk in the temple

Just go look for him

- Aren't you coming with us? - Coming with you? No, thank you

You didn't tell us his name How can we find him?

He seems to be very afraid of that person

Are we really going there?

Yes, we've got no other choice now. Let's go

Rong-er, let me carry you

Rong-er, there's light coming from there

There must be someone living here

Brother Jing, it's getting dark

Let's stay here for the night and continue tomorrow

Alright

- The Peach Blossom Formation - Don't worry, stand in the 'ping' position

- What should l do? - Take 8 steps towards the east

Rong-er

lt's really weird

Why would anyone here know that formation?

This house seems rather strange

You're so badly injured

And the lron Palm Sect might follow us here

We have to give it a shot no matter what

ls there anyone home?

We're passing through and would like a place to stay

We'll only stay for one night and leave first thing in the morning

lf you've managed to make it this far

you should be able to enter

Do you need me to come out and welcome you?

- Rong-er - Brother Jing

Add a 'seven' and a 'nine'

Add an 'eight' and a 'six'

Wrong again! When will l be able to calculate it correctly?

Senior

Are you siblings?

No, you mean...

Then you must be lovers

You're really unlucky

to have come here

Why do you say that when we've got nothing against each other?

l hate loving couples

Death is the only fate that awaits all couples who arrive here

Unless you can answer my question

What question?

Do you see that diagram on the wall?

lt's a Diagram of Nine Palaces, so what?

l want you to put the numbers 'one' to 'nine' into the squares

so it adds up to 'fifteen' whether you view it horizontally, vertically or diagonally

That's easy. Brother Jing, help me do it

Just throw the pieces up there as l say

l've been studying that diagram for more than 10 years now

Are you really that confident?

l won't let you off if you get it wrong

Brother Jing, l won't get it wrong Get ready

Put 'two' and 'four' at the shoulders of two of the nine palaces

What does that mean?

Place two pieces in the top right hand square

and four pieces in the top left hand square

Put 'six' and 'eight' at the feet Place six pieces in the bottom right square

and eight pieces in the bottom left square

'Three' on the left and 'seven' on the right

Place three pieces in the left middle square

and seven pieces in the right middle square

Fill 'nine' on 'one'

Place nine pieces in the top middle square

and one in the bottom

Finally, place five pieces in the square right in the middle

lf you don't believe me, add it up yourself lt all adds up to fifteen

To think that this problem l've been agonising over for more than 10 years

has been solved so easily by you

Then we can go now

Wait!

Are you going back on your word?

Someone has entered the Peach Blossom Formation. Are they your friends?

- The lron Palm Sect followed us here - lron Palm Sect?

That's right

You must have important connections if the lron Palm Sect is after you so urgently

We're the disciples of Hong Qigong leader of the Beggar Sect

So you're the disciples of North Beggar

Qiu Qianren is only after us lt has nothing to do with you

We don't want to implicate you, so farewell

Would l be afraid of Qiu Qianren?

Yinggu, the Great Mathematician

Qiu Qianren of the lron Palm Sect wishes to see you

l've never welcomed any visitors Don't you know that?

My men saw a couple entering your house

l hope you can hand them over to me

ls it so easy to enter my house?

lf you think it's so easy try coming in to search for yourself

What should we do?

What else? Take turns standing guard over here

- lnform me at once if there's any news - Yes

He's gone

You can stay here for the night

Thank you

Rong-er, are you alright? Rong-er

She looks like she's been seriously injured Let me take a look

Were you injured by Qiu Qianren's lron Palm?

Yes! Please help to treat her

Me?

l'm not capable of saving her

There's only one person in this world who can save her

We know that

lt's a monk who lives in the mountain nearby

But what you don't know is that

he is a selfish person

He won't help you

Then...

lf you trust me

then stay here for the night

l'll have a way to help you tomorrow morning

lf you don't believe me, you can leave now

But you'd better buy a quality coffin to bury your lover in

l believe you

The rooms are at the back

You can take a rest there

lf he was as nice to me

as that young man is to that young lady

l would not have lived in vain

The fourth part of the loom...

The mandarin ducks long to be together when they are weaved

Pity her whose hair is white before she is old

From the glorious times in Spring to the depths of the Winter

she longs to be with him

(The fourth part of the loom)

The fourth part of the loom, the mandarin ducks long to be together...

lt sounds familiar

l know! The Old lmp recites it all the time when he's bathing

Rong-er, do you know what the poem is about?

That woman is really strange who knows what she's saying?

You shouldn't say that

l sense some hidden bitterness She must have suffered much hardship

How would you know?

You're the only one who trusts her

l don't know why she made us stay

lt doesn't matter At the very most, we'll just die

lf we're not afraid of death what else is there to be afraid of?

l've been waiting for this for 18 years

The day has finally arrived

My child, l'll be able to avenge you soon

Be patient

l'll offer the enemy's head to you very soon

Rong-er

Rong-er, it's already daybreak. Get up We have to go up the mountain

Rong-er

Rong-er...

- Rong-er - What happened?

- l don't know what's wrong with her - Let me see

She's having a serious relapse

What should we do?

Rong-er...

- Brother Jing - Are you alright?

l'm fine. Get me some of the Nine Flower Jade Pills

This is the Nine Flower Jade Pill?

Yes. What are you doing?

How are you related to the Old Heretic?

Are you fit to call my father's name?

So the Old Heretic is your father

No wonder you're so skilled

Give me back the pills first

lf you crush the pills into powder

and drink it with Heavenly lced Water

it will be even more effective

You do know that, don't you?

Do you have the Heavenly lced Water?

Take good care of her

Rong-er, are you feeling better?

The pills will only help for a while

But she'll suffer another relapse soon

You'd better head to the mountain soon

Last night, you mentioned that

the monk was very selfish and may not save Rong-er

Don't worry, l've already thought of a plan

What plan?

l can help you

but you'll need to do something for me too

What is it?

l want the girl to promise me

that if she manages to recover

she must come back within a month and live with me for a year

Why?

l wasn't talking to you l was talking to her

lf you're not too stupid

l should be able to teach you all my mathematical skills within half a year

You're indeed brilliant

That means you've agreed?

How are we going to convince the monk to save Rong-er?

Here are 3 pouches

Walk towards the northeast direction when you leave

until you reach the Taoyuan County

Then open the largest pouch

Just follow the instructions written inside

But remember, you mustn't open it before you reach the Taoyuan County, alright?

Alright

Go and return quickly l'll be waiting for you

Farewell

- Rong-er - l'm alright

- Go inform the leader - Yes

- Don't let them get away - l know

Rong-er, are you alright?

l've never seen you fight like that

l was just thinking that if one of them escaped, you won't be able to be saved

l know that you care about me

Rong-er

Let's open the 3 pouches

l wonder what plans Yinggu has

l knew you'd refuse

lf we open it now it might affect your chances at recovery

Let's go, or else if Qiu Qianren gets here

- you'll be a goner too - Alright, let's go

Rong-er, look

We've finally reached Taoyuan County

Looks like we'll be able to see the temple that monk lives in soon

According to Yinggu, we should open the first pouch when we reach Taoyuan County

Monk Yideng is a selfish person

His 4 disciples, the Fisherman, Woodcutter Farmer and Scholar, are cruel and ruthless

They will intercept you along the way

So if you meet the Fisherman, Woodcutter Farmer and Scholar, you must be very careful

You must mention that you are disciples of Hong Qigong if need

Yideng is on friendly terms with the North Beggar

So they wouldn't dare to harm you

So Yinggu wants us to look for Monk Yideng

Do you know him?

No, but l heard that he used to be Emperor Duan of Dali

He's a very kind-hearted person

That's strange, but Yinggu said that he's a very selfish person

Let's just be careful along the way

Golden Baby, where are you?

Golden Baby, stop hiding...

- Golden Baby... Come out - Come out

Golden Baby... Where are you?

Golden Baby, come out quickly

Where have you gone?

lf you refuse to come out all the villagers will starve to death

Sir, what's going on?

You are...

We're just passing through What are you looking for?

Why don't we help you?

- We're looking for the Golden Baby - Golden Baby?

What's that?

There's something you should know

The people from our entire village fish for a living

Recently, there have been many poisonous water snakes in this area

and they chased all the fish away

Fortunately, the Golden Baby appeared

and expelled all the water snakes

so we didn't starve to death

But the Golden Baby has disappeared recently

lf we don't find it soon all the villagers will starve to death

Golden Baby, where are you hiding?

Golden Baby, please come out

What is a Golden Baby?

lt's a rare fish which is golden in colour

lt's the bane of poison

ls it very rare?

Not really, l've got 2 at home

Then you should help them They're so pitiful

There's nothing l can do The Peach Blossom lsland is so far away

There's really nothing l can do

The village head has already found the Golden Baby!

Really? Where is it?

The Golden Baby has been trapped inside a cave by the poisonous snakes

- Let's all go take a look - Come with me!

Let's go...

Rong-er, let's go see if we can be of help
