Legend of Fei

Episode 21

Mr. Yin, you'll finish...

...the wine.

Smart.

Do you have interest...

...in making a legend of this story?

Look. It snows. Heavy snow.

The title will be Heavy Snow on Spring Mountain.

That day was cold.

They hit it off right away. They laughed and drank together...

...from spring to winter.

He's no doubt my grandfather.

Your grandfather had been friends with Shanchuan Sword for long.

Maybe that goes with the saying...

...of heroes are drawn to one another.

Why don't you fight properly?

Why did you break your fine saber and sword?

What is so funny? What a waste.

Lady, wait until...

...you meet a bosom friend who's your equal.

You'll understand why we laugh.

Broken weapons do not matter.

Friendship matters.

Both Southern Saber and Shanchuan Sword...

...have lost their handy saber and sword.

People will laugh at you.

Later, I returned to Yuyi Troupe.

I found someone to forge...

...new saber and sword...

...based on their old weapons,...

...but that was too late for me to give them to the two of them...

...because I heard that a wealthy friend in Penglai...

...had given Mr. Yin an armour and a sword.

I thought that...

...was so much better than mine.

I didn't want to make a fool of myself.

I just never thought that I could never see them again...

...after two years.

Therefore,...

...since you're Mr. Li's granddaughter,...

...take this saber and train using it.

You don't need to return it.

Take it as I've fulfilled my promise.

Thank you, madam.

I've certainly turned old and talkative.

I've told you a long story in the past.

Sit. I want to ask you something.

Who did you learn Mayfly Step from?

It's.....

We.....

When we're about to leave the dark dungeon of Huo Fort,...

...we met a Qimen priest and learned from him.

What about Azure Dragon Lord? Was he really killed by you?

No.

I only held him up.

It's actually Elder Ji.

He extended his meridian with Soul-Seeking Needle...

...and killed Azure Dragon Lord.

You and Qiansuiyou.....

We also met in the dark dungeon of Huo Fort.

She saved me.

Did you go to the dark dungeon, too?

Were you invited to stage a play at Huo Fort?

Enough, girl. From what I know,...

...you're making this trip by Mistress Li's order...

...to escort orphans of General Wu back to 48 Strongholds.

Are you alone?

"There must be a reason for Qiu Tianjin to search...

...frantically for us in Huarong.

Chuchu holds something that even Qiu Tianjin would lust for.

I'd rather cut my tongue than telling the truth.

I'm asking you.

I.....

I was separated from my family...

...when something happened.

Capricious Fei.

What's the reason?

It's only because...

...the elder in my family didn't treat me fairly.

I was angry. So I ran out.

Then I bumped into Chuchu.

She chased after me.

After that,...

...I bumped into horse thieves plundering passers-by.

I couldn't stand it.

So I intervened.

I pursued them to the dark dungeon of Huo Fort.

That shouldn't be the case.

Aren't elders partial to girls more?

You know what? When I was at your age,...

...I never felt wronged.

You shouldn't compare yourself to her.

She grew up in a stronghold.

All right. It's late.

Girl, you didn't sleep well for days...

...and you're still recovering from a serious illness.

Go back early and rest well.

There is a long journey ahead.

You shall rest early, too.

See you.

Brother Yin, 48 Strongholds...

...have granted Brother Li's wish...

...by bringing up a pretty and smart girl.

She has a tough nature.

She can definitely pass down Poxue Skills.

I wonder...

...how that child is.

We'll spare you if you give us Shanchuan scabbard!

I'd rather die.

Who is it? -You've regained consciousness.

Grandpa Chongxiao said you would. -Who?

Grandpa Chongxiao, the one who saved you.

He saved me?

He wanted to steal my scabbard.

What did you say? -Nothing. Bring me to him.

Let's go.

Let go of me.

Who are you pulling? -Hurry.

Let go of me! Where are we?

Grandpa Chongxiao lives there. -Who is he?

Grandpa Chongxiao. -Where are we?

He said this was once Big Apothecary Valley.

It had been deserted for long. So he placed many refugees here.

Refugees? -Yes.

It's to build his own force.

By the way, I'm Xiaohu. I'm also a refugee,...

...but I'm different.

Grandpa Chongxiao doesn't like to live with the people.

I always come to look after him.

Are you also homeless?

Don't bother.

It's fine. This is your home from now on.

By the way, what is your name? -You're nosy?

Let's go. -What are you doing?

Let's go. -Who are you pulling?

Do you know who I am?. -I don't care who you are.

Let go of me.

Grandpa Chongxiao, the guy has regained consciousness.

You've regained consciousness.

You must be starving after so many days in a coma.

Who are you?

I'm Chongxiaozi.

I carried you when you're young.

You peed on me.

An old friend of my father.

My father did have a wide network.

He had so many friends. -Yes, indeed.

A sword is like a gentleman.

Shanchuan Sword leads the gentlemen.

I can't tell if your father...

...was the best,...

...but he was definitely the most...

...righteous man.

Righteous man? -Yes.

That's why he was always bullied and deceived by others.

I've met many of his old friends along the way.

They all came for my family legacy.

You shouldn't talk like this to Grandpa Chongxiao.

He saved you. -He saved me?

Why would he do that? He'd save me at first.

Next, he'll make me his disciple teach me martial arts.

I'll look forward to your new trick.

Who would be so bad and ask you to practise martial arts?

You're weak since young and you have internal injury.

You aren't fit to practise martial arts.

You aren't a skilful swindler.

Those in the past would at least give me something.

You refuse to give me anything.

They're better than you.

You will know if I'm lying.

Do you sense chaotic energy,...

...numbness and tremble throughout your body...

...when you try to use your Qi?

Do you think you can practise martial arts in such a condition?

No. You're spouting nonsense.

Is it true?

Yes.

Xiaohu, bring him to fetch water.

You're back. -Did you stop pretending so soon?

Stop looking for it.

I'm holding the scabbard.

Child.

I feel sorry for you.

Stop pretending.

I don't believe you ever since you saved me.

No one...

...would simply save a person unrelated to them.

I did it for your father.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have...

...made an arduous journey to seek you after listening...

...to a few men spouting nonsense.

What a story.

Go on.

This is the letter between me and your father.

Go through it.

"Priest, I heard of chaos in the martial arts world lately.

As for the matter mentioned last time....."

This was indeed my father's handwriting.

One's handwriting represents the person.

Your father...

...wrote smoothly with robust strokes.

One can tell...

...that he had practised for a lifetime.

No one...

...can imitate his handwriting.

Even when Li Zheng excelled at wielding a saber...

...and became a sect master,...

...he was no match...

...for your family in literary inheritance.

How sad.

How unfortunate.

Why is it unfortunate?

My family isn't exterminated.

There is me, Yin Pei!

Yes, there is still you.

Although you're physically weak, you have a good brain.

You can restore your family's reputation.

I'm not weak.

Haven't you understood after fetching the water?

You're...

...weaker than a child.

Whether you believe it or not,...

...I want to advise you...

...to not simply practise martial arts.

Otherwise, you'll bring...

...your family bloodline to an end.

"Qiaoyun House"

She has also brought Snow Drinker away.

Stop looking. They have left.

This is their old trick.

It's still warm.

You can't stop them from leaving.

Why did they leave?

That's because.....

The secret cannot be revealed.

What nonsense is this?

Are you trying to murder your.....

Husband, I mean brother.

Who is my brother?

You're my brother.

Here, Lady Zhou. Tea.

Yuyi Troupe is like Ming Feng Sect at 48 Strongholds.

They're equally famous about 10 years ago.

It's their rule to leave without saying goodbye.

I see.

A'Fei, what do you plan to do next?

What else? I've left home for so long.

I want to resume practising back at 48 Strongholds.

Do you want to bring me along?

Won't you follow me? You don't need me to bring you.

Sure.

Who is it?

Could it be some other practitioners after Yang Jin?

Anyone in?

Uncle Ma. -A'Fei.

Uncle Ma, you don't know how miserable I was.

That tanned man and that old swindler...

...tricked and detained me. They threatened to compete with A'Fei.

They detained you?

They threatened you?

You seemed to have enjoyed the food.

You've gained more weight after a few days.

I wonder why Mistress Li let you leave the stronghold.

You must have played a trick.

No, Sister A'Fei.

That's it. I heard about you.

I was so happy.

Yan'er, I don't know what is on your mind.

You went to the storyteller alone.

Fortunately, he did you no harm.

He only wanted to compete with A'Fei.

If he wanted more than that, how should I...

...and A'Fei explain to Mistress Li?

We'd have let the late old master down.

Go back to your seat.

How dare you cry.

Why are you crying? You can only cry.

Forget it since everyone is safe.

A'Fei, who is he?

The one who kidnapped Uncle Zhou. -What?

A friend. -Friend?

I sent a letter from an old friend to Master Gan Tang.

I didn't kidnap him.

After that, I bumped into A'Fei in the dark dungeon of Huo Fort.

We've been together since then. -That's right.

Where is Sheng'er?

He.....

We're separated from him not long after we left the stronghold.

I haven't heard of him since then.

Why did all of you get into trouble?

Fine. I've found you at least.

Listen. You mustn't travel anywhere anymore.

I'll pack up. We'll depart immediately!

Sure.

Now?

Are you done, crazy girl?

Chunhui Town is right ahead. I suppose we're safe for now.

Do you want to get changed?

You're right. I should meet...

...Mistress Li in a dress.

"Kelai Tailor"

Welcome. What do you need?

I want to buy a new dress for her.

A lady. She is so pretty.

Lady, we have all types of dresses.

You may look around.

Lady, what do you think about this?

I made it today.

You'll be pretty in this.

This one then.

"Favourable Weather"

Look around. I'll settle the carriage.

Sure, Uncle Ma. I'll go ahead.

Be careful. -I will!

Unload everything in the carriage.

A'Fei, what is that shop?

Shall we take a look?

That seems to be a snack shop.

Really?

Are you craving for anything?

Let's take a look.

Toys.

Take a look! -Tanghulu!

Bamboo hats for rent! -I remembered wrongly.

I think the snack shop is over there.

Over there?

Tanghulu! -Bamboo hats for rent!

Zhang. -You're back, Jili.

Yes. Have you prepared it?

Yes, I have. -Bring it here.

It's a substandard product, but the material is good enough.

See it for yourself. -I know.

Uncle Ma, why do you want to buy a substandard product?

It's nothing.

He is a caring father.

He spends thriftily even when he always travels around.

He wants to buy new clothes for his child.

So he..... -Enough. Why are you telling them?

Take it. -What is the matter?

You've paid me too much. -This isn't much.

I know you're kind. Even when you call it substandard,...

...I don't take advantage of others.

If you don't accept it, I won't let you...

...keep goods for me next time. -Fine.

I'll accept it. -All right. Pack it.

A'Fei.

Boss, may I lift it to look at it?

Sure.

Uncle Ma, does it look good on me?

That's a sure thing, A'Fei. Don't you think so?

You know what? Take my advice.

You ought to dress up more. You look pretty.

By the way, your physique...

...is like my girl.

Yes, we have similar physique.

She'll look good in this if I look good.

I'll give you this.

No, A'Fei. -Pack this, boss.

No. This is too much. -Money.

You can't do this.

Accept it, Uncle Ma.

If my mother heard that I came home with you...

...without thanking you,...

...she'd scold me for being insensible.

No. This is too much. I can't accept it.

Uncle Ma, just bring it home and let your child try it.

Take it as a token of appreciation from us.

Take it. -Accept it.

Thank you, A'Fei.

You're welcome.

The money was meant to buy a saber for you. You're so generous.

Can you brush me off when you owe me a saber?

Compose a song and sell it.

Buy a fine saber for me.

I won't accept a saber worse than Wangchunshan.

You're so hard to deal with.

Please have some tea.

Are you from 48 Strongholds?

How do you know? -It's simple.

I can tell from your attire that you practise martial arts.

48 Strongholds is the only sect nearby.

Of course you're from 48 Strongholds.

You're really lucky.

Although your wife is dressed in a man's attire,...

...I can tell that she is from a big family.

No, she isn't my wife.

Pardon me. Please have some tea.

A'Sheng,...

...does this suit me?

Yes, very much.

Boss, I'll take this.

Choose one for yourself, too.

This is bad. I'm feeling dizzy.

Take a rest.

Are you all right?

Boss, who owns the horse at the door?

It's ours. -Can you sell it to me?

Sure.

"Chunhui Inn"

It isn't far from here.

Why don't we proceed? Why are we staying here for another day?

A'Fei, don't tell me you don't know...

...where your house is.

So you're looking at the map.

What are you staring at? Is it your home or mine?

It isn't easy to travel in the dark.

There is fog in the forest. One can easily get lost.

Moreover.....

Moreover.....

Get the number of people, names and tablets...

...ready.

Send them to the first sentry to the mountain will do.

Correct. Moreover,...

...everyone has to be verified upon entering 48 Strongholds.

They need to.....

Yes?

A normal disciple needs to pass only two checks.

It's troublesome for a stranger or someone new.

At least one elder should be notified.

That can take two to three days.

Yes, Uncle Ma is right.

I see. -All right. Get ready.

Noted. -Go.

Pull yourselves together and keep in line.

Uncle Ma! I've arranged it.

When shall we dine? I'm starving.

Right away.

You entered the stronghold alone back then.

You must have learnt...

...about our sentries and rules.

What are you doing? Come here!

Let go of me! Why are members of 48 Strongholds so rude?

You can't complain! You've been defeated by A'Fei.

Why are you stalking us?

Tell us what you're up to. -Nothing.

Lord of Cloud Ravine.

You kidnapped my cousin and threatened me to compete with you.

You stalk us after you're defeated.

Who do you want to kidnap this time?

I can't accept it.

I want to train at 48 Strongholds and compete with you again.

"My mother didn't even push me so hard in practice.

13-Geese Saber? It should be Torture-Geese Saber.

I told you not to accept his challenge. Now he clings to you.

No way. Leave at once.

Where do you think this is? You can't simply come here.

Moreover, we've yet to make you pay for kidnapping me.

You.....

You had good food and drinks at my place.

Many people would like to be kidnapped in that way.

You didn't state that I couldn't stay.

I won't leave.

You.....

What are you doing?

As a descendant of Southern Saber, how could you steal?

I didn't steal. I snatched it.

It's like you stalking us even after you're defeated.

Give it back.

No.

It seems quite important to you.

Tell me what this is...

...or I'll throw it away!

It's Wufu Tablet of Peddlers Gang. They will do their best...

...to either prepare your accommodation or carriage...

...when you're travelling with it.

It seems very useful.

Take it, A'Fei. -I don't want it.

Just take it.

He gives you nothing after you defeated him.

Thank you, tanned man.

You may stay here if you want.

You can't enter 48 Strongholds anyway.

You.....

Fine. I'll go up to arrange it.

He is the lord of Small Apothecary Valley after all.

We have no reason to be harsh on him.

How imprudent.

He took me hostage.

A rare visitor. -Uncle.

What brings you here? -I'm here to greet you.

I wonder if you're doing well lately.

I can take three fishes per meal What do you think?

You're joking again. -Come out to talk.

I recently received a letter to the master of Ming Feng Sect.

I opened it and read as I thought it's written to me.

Please go through it.

"From Yu Wenzhi."

"It's bound to happen."

What do you think we should do about it?

I didn't know why Ming Feng withdrew from the martial world.

I only know they offended a powerful force,...

...but today, they've written a letter...

...to make peace with us.

Are they up to something else?

Whatever it is,...

...so long as they think of coming here to stir up trouble,...

...we should let them know...

...that they make the wrong choice.

Many years have passed.

It will be good if we can resolve...

...the past misunderstanding.

Then, we don't need to hide...

...and do nothing here.

Good, but I think...

...you used to cry and make a fuss every day...

...that you didn't want to be...

...a spy.

Now...

...it seems that you want to return to the martial arts world.

Uncle, that's in the past.

Now I just want to restore Ming Feng.

Got it,...

...but don't you know...

...all famous spies in the world...

...end up tragically?

Yuyi Troupe is the only survivor...

...because they've stopped working as spies.

They sell information for a living.

I think it's good. At least they're still living.

What matters the most...

...in the world...

...is your choice of direction.

Today,...

...just forget that we've read this letter.

I'll take your advice.

I'll make a move first, uncle.

Dan'er. Where did you...

...get the letter?

It was received by a disciple who shopped...

...for sundries on the street.

I suppose they had been waiting for us.

Uncle, I wouldn't have shown the letter to you...

...if I wanted to betray the sect.

I know.

Master Gan Tang.

General Wen, where are others?

I didn't bring them back. The Emperor is safe for now,...

...but Lady Zhou Fei...

...seems unwell.

I heard...

...about A'Fei from my scout.

I failed to bring the Emperor and Lady Zhou back safely.

I don't blame you.

It's beyond our reach.

Fortunately, Mr. Xie is an intelligent man.

He is with A'Fei...

...and A'Fei...

...is a fortunate girl.

I think they can overcome the difficulty.

Lady Zhou will be fine.

I hope so.

Master Gan Tang, I have another report.

I bumped into Gu Tianxian at Mount Heng.

Gu Tianxian?

Gu Tianxian serves Disha.

Why did he appear at Mount Heng? -I don't know.

I bumped into Disha when I brought Ms. Wu along.

Fortunately, your nephew Li Sheng got us out of danger.

I don't know where the group led by Gu Tianxian went.

Later, Li Sheng said Gu Tianxian wanted to meet someone...

...in Hengyang.

Report!

Master Gan Tang, we haven't gotten any news about 48 Strongholds.

All right. Got it.

You may leave. -Noted.

Gu Tianxian must have travelled to Hengyang...

...for another reason.

General Wen, I received secret intelligence days ago.

Yu Wenzhi appeared at Disha Manor.

Now Gu Tianxian is plotting something in Hengyang.

There're unusual movements everywhere.

It won't be as simple as we think.

Master Gan Tang, do you think they.....

I hope I'm being overly sensitive.

Uncle.

I heard that Mistress Li wasn't around.

I came to check on Qian Ji.

Here.

Let's drink.

A'Fei. I think they'll come tomorrow,...

...but the sentinels said that Mistress Li left the stronghold.

The security at sentries has been strengthened.

It's rare for her to leave the stronghold.

All right. You're almost done.

Rest early.

A'Yan. I'm talking to you.

You mustn't sleep until afternoon starting from tomorrow.

You're being too much lately.

Uncle Ma. Why is it so merry out there?

Is it related to you?

Are you done? Go up to sleep then.

Hurry up.

Go away.

She's still like a child.

All right. Rest early, both of you.

You too, A'Fei.

Sure.
