Long live Your Majesty

Rise

Thank you, Your Majesty

Your Majesty

The prayer ceremony is ready

Please preside

You are here

You can do it

Yes, Your Majesty

Recently

rumor has it that in Chang'an

a snake monster has invaded into the city

Some even spread the rumor that

Tang is about to be doomed

Hence

His Majesty holds the prayer ceremony in person

and executes the prisoners

to abide by the Heavenly will

pray for the prosperity of Tang

and expel the monster

Your Majesty

don't believe the rumor

There is no snake monster

Please be wisely noted

Nonsense

Drag him away

You scum

Go rot in hell

Rot in hell!

Scum

Rot in hell!

Rot in hell!

Time is up

The prayer ceremony begins

[Special Police and Snake Revenge]

Kowtow

Your Majesty

Your Majesty

This is the baleful snake monster

The clay Bodhisattva shows its magic

May Heaven bless Tang

The clay Bodhisattva shows its magic

May Heaven bless Tang

May Heaven bless Tang

May Heaven bless Tang

Wonderful

Tang is blessed by Heaven

Congratulations, Your Majesty

Tang will be saved

[As colorful clothes land in Chang'an, the emperor won't return]

Does it want me dead?

Execute the prisoners

Worship the clay Bodhisattva

[Chengtian Gate]

Don't be bewitched by the snake monster

You are all deceived

This is a conspiracy

Protect His Majesty

Your Majesty

Come on

Let's go

[Chengtian Gate]

Miao people?

Freeze

Don't play tricks

Your Lordship

Stop him

Lord Left Prime Minister, long time no see

You know me?

You are the one

who made me the condemned prisoner

Who are you?

A special officer, Wang Xuan

It's normal that you don't remember me

Of course you won't pay attention to

a small potato like me

Take him down

Hold up

I can help you

investigate the assassination

I can interrogate the arrested assassins

Why should I keep you?

You

even killed the accomplices of the assassin

So unprofessional

Hold up

Your Lordship

No case was unsolved when I was in office

This case is obviously done by the Miao people

The accomplices are always loyal

They won't reveal each other's identity

But I've got some clues

Tell me

If I tell you everything

do I stand a chance of living?

How dare you!

Time

With enough time

I can surely arrest the assassin

What's your catch?

Freedom

Freedom only

Here is the poison

Take it

and your arm

will gradually turn dark purple

If you cannot bring the assassins back

before the next prayer ceremony

the poison will take effect and you will die

If you succeed in arresting the assassin

your freedom will be granted

Thank you, Your Lordship

However

if you let others make it first

you will die too

Noted

That's all for

today's prayer ceremony

The clay Bodhisattva shows magic

It shall save the people

Ten days later

all the Tang people must worship it together

What are you doing?

Filthy beggar

Put it down

Let it go. Did you hear me?

Stop

Freeze

Freeze

Freeze

Don't cry

Dad, I'm hungry

You will have food soon

How much is this?

Miss

Food for her will be enough

I don't want her

May the clay Bodhisattva bless me

May the clay Bodhisattva bless me

The clay Bodhisattva is divine

It shall bless the people

Ghosts will be shunned

Monsters will be subdued

Ghosts will be shunned

Monsters will be subdued

The clay Bodhisattva is divine

It shall bless the people

The clay Bodhisattva is divine

It shall bless the people

Ghosts will be shunned

Monsters will be subdued

Ghosts will be shunned

Monsters will be subdued

My blood will be drained

To nourish Bodhisattva's soul

My blood will be drained

To nourish Bodhisattva's soul

The clay Bodhisattva is divine

It shall bless the people

The clay Bodhisattva is divine

It shall bless the people

The Clay Bodhisattva Sect is so powerful

How dare you mess with them?

Farewell

What can I do for you?

His Majesty was assassinated in Chang'an

The silver needles were delicately designed

The back of the needles were engraved with a pattern

In Chang'an or even the whole Tang

only you can be

so skillful

Wang Xuan

You have a good memory

I thought you were in the condemned cell

You want me dead?

For so many years

this saber

is my most satisfying work

Why are you blind?

Long story short

It was because

I didn't believe in the Clay Bodhisattva Sect

that they ruined my eyes

It's even better

Out of sight, out of mind

Is the Clay Bodhisattva Sect so powerful?

You don't know about this

The Clay Bodhisattva Sect

is said to be very efficacious

after it was introduced from the Miao area

In my opinion

it is only

some bewitching tricks

What a trivial trick!

Let's get down to business

Who asked you to forge

the silver needles?

Keeping the secret for my client

is my rule

Rules

are set by men

You know me

Fine

These silver needles

were booked by a girl

the other day

The girl was very mysterious

Without saying anything

she threw down the money and left

You are blind

How can you know it was a girl?

By smelling

Gentleman

Have a drink

Are we here to drink the wine?

It's okay

No rush

Madam

When on earth will they finish?

Very soon

I'll urge them

No rush

Your Lordship

Look

My girls

are all law-abiding

They are definitely not assassins

Look

He has smelt several times

When will this be over?

I need to do the business

These are all the girls you've got?

Yeah, all of them are here

If you mess with me

you know the consequences

A few of them

are not available

Why are they not available?

They are serving

several distinguished guests upstairs

I dare not offend them

Besides

everything here takes money

Can you afford to offend me?

Of course not

Bring them downstairs and serve here

Yes

Girls

Come down here

Who is he?

What is he doing?

He is the special officer

We can't afford to offend him

Let's go

Wait a minute

This is the one

Irrelevant people

either leave or die

Who are they?

Bounty hunters

They followed me here

to take advantage

Last night, you and I just acted on impulse

Why did you have to chase me?

Don't flatter yourself

I'm here for the bounty

Ask the girl to come here

Let's have a drink

Let's go

Don't panic

Don't make me play the hard ball

I must show you what I've got

A snack for the drink

She is mine

Interesting

So stupid

He cannot even deal with the clones

Exchange the things for the wine

Cheers

Phew

Enough

Don't hinder us from making money

Making money?

You acted even before you saw the assassin clearly

She is the assassin, isn't she?

She?

Her scent

is correct

but she

is not the one

Look at this

Leave

Don't be so impulsive next time

I know you are forced

to apply her perfume to yourself

but if

I say you are the assassin

you will be the assassin

Show me the direction

Where is she?

You get lost

It's you

You don't want to arouse attention

Come back with me

in case of suffering pain

It depends on whether you are capable

Chang'an is in a state of siege

You can hardly escape

It won't be so easy

to catch me

Escaping

is also not easy

Look

They are cuddling

What are you looking at?

Go back home

Arrest the assassin

You still want to escape?

Assassin

Over there

Put it over there

Easy does it

Easy

You two lazybones, get up

Put it over there

I'm pissed off

Unbelievable

Hey

Your Lordship

You must do justice for me

Check this out

How can I proceed with the business?

You are dying

And you are still thinking about doing business?

How can I know she is an assassin?

She has been here for several days only

At your service

Whatever you ask for

Show me the way

This way, Your Lordship

[Floral Courtyard]

Your Lordship

This is her room

I've long disliked the woman

She always refused to serve the clients

And she came and went like a shadow

What trouble

has she made?

But

what she did

doesn't matter

Most importantly

she shouldn't offend you

These days

I will have a few new girls

What kind of girl do you like?

I'll send her to your mansion

You will be satisfied for sure

Hey

You have a good eye

This

is the perfume from the Western Region

If you like it

I can send you a few bottles later

Your Lordship

You like

the fan too?

Just take whatever else you like

Mine is yours

Your Lordship

I really have nothing to do with

this matter

How about this?

If I find any clues

I'll let you know at once

I've known that girl

for a few days only

I don't even know who she is

She always stayed in her room after she came

I didn't see her hanging out with anyone

If there is something wrong

please put in a good word for me

Clay Bodhisattva Village

Hey, buddy

I need to ask you something

Did a strange woman come to the village these days?

Hey

You even don't want the money

The Clay Bodhisattva Sect really does harm to the people

So, we meet again

I didn't think you'd make it this far

Who do you work for?

I am Miao

My name is Lin Yue

I'm not an assassin

I'm trying to save Tang

Save Tang?

By killing the emperor?

The emperor has been bewitched

I want to wake him up

The man I want to kill is the Left Prime Minister

What is this Clay Bodhisattva Village for?

All the clay statues in the country

are made of the clay of the island

and manufactured here

What are you doing here?

The clay of which the statues are made contains poison

It causes hallucinations

I came here

looking for a cure

A cure?

Follow me back to Chang 'an

The Clay Bodhisattva Village is surrounded by water

There is no return

You can not get out

It's enough that you can get out

You can't get away

Then let's make a deal

You help me find the cure

and I will get you out of here

Where is the cure?

It's right here

Aoqi

Listen to my order

The clay Bodhisattva shows magic

Repeat

Begin

Listen to my order

The clay Bodhisattva shows magic

Repeat

Begin

Listen to my order

The clay Bodhisattva shows magic

Repeat

What is the secret of this clay Bodhisattva?

Since you don't trust me

see for yourself

Repeat

Begin

The clay Bodhisattva shows magic

Listen to my order

Cai Guang Ji Qi Ba Huo

Ma Ren Shui Yan Tian Jia

As I wish

you shall be God

To nurture my heart

give me your blood

I'll give you poison

Your arm

will turn dark purple

After ten days

the poison will take effect and you will die

The man in the official uniform is a spy

Catch him

Don't you remember me?

I'm one of you

I'm here to catch the assassin under the order of the Left Prime Minister

The Left Prime Minister instructed that

only the dead could leave this place

It's a cliff ahead and there's no way out

Then you're still running around?

Kill them

Go down and wait for me

Go

Search along the river

Make sure you find them

Yes

The cure

What do you want?

If I don't cure your leg

how can you return to Chang 'an with me?

You have already known about the Left Prime Minister

Taking me back

won't save your life

What are you looking at?

The poison

will soon kill you

Care about me?

If I don't take you back to Chang 'an

I will die as well

I can handle

your poison

Can I trust you?

The cure is on you

You can destroy it anytime you want

if you don't believe me

Sure

Got it fixed

No thanks?

You took advantage of me and...

Thank you

Let's go

Where to go?

Cure me

Could you hurry up?

Wait for me in front

Your horse

Stop the thief!

The rustler

Stop the thief!

Here is the money for the horse

Thank you for the horse

What did you say?

I said

thank you

Get down

Follow the sound of the bell

This is the signal to show us the way

You don't need to do so

I can do it myself

This way

What is this place?

Our people live in seclusion here

to escape the war

Then why did you assassinate the emperor?

There has always been tribal strife

in our homeland

until a master named Aoqi came along

and unified all the tribes

But those who wanted peace

were either exiled or killed

I became an orphan at that time

Aoqi covets the land of the Tang Empire

He created the Clay Bodhisattva Sect

to bewitch people

What's the secret of the clay Bodhisattva?

There is something hallucinogenic

in the clay of which the statues are made

It will make people feel refreshed

when it reaches the skin

Over time

people will be numb

and do as told

The giant Buddha in Chang 'an...

Yes

It deceives the emperor and the people

If Chang'an eventually falls into the hands of Aoqi

it will become

living hell

Hurry up

The poison is going to spread all over your body

What are you looking at?

I must

honor my promise

We're almost there

Where are you going?

You guys are pretty close

You take us back to the Left Prime Minister

I will tell him everything

You...

This is a delaying tactic

The poison

will soon kill you

The Left Prime Minister instructed that

only the dead could leave this place

Are you sure the disappearance case was done by a foreign master?

I'll report to the Left Prime Minister right away

The Left Prime Minister is so powerful

and you still dare to provoke him

Even Chief Zhang is in trouble because of you

I'm gonna teach you a lesson today

Slow down

Slow down, you guys

This kid

Be careful

You are up

It's good to be young

Whether it's poison or injury

you recover faster than an old guy like me

Why did you save me?

What do you mean?

You put me on death row first

and you made me take poison and arrest the girl days ago

The Hu girl came to kill me

under your orders

What the hell are you doing?

The current Left Prime Minister

is not me

Six months ago

a master Aoqi from the Miao area came to visit me

He had an unusual figure

and he wanted me to help him

promote the Clay Bodhisattva Sect in Chang 'an

The Clay Bodhisattva Sect that

this person preached is a good religion

that can make the country peaceful

and the people secure

I saw nothing wrong

so I allowed him to preach

Clay Bodhisattva Sect

spread quickly in Chang'an

attracting a large number of congregants

At the same time, officials opposing to the Clay Bodhisattva Sect

were mysteriously missing

That day, a special chief came to report that he had found evidence that

the Clay Bodhisattva Sect had kidnapped officials in the court

I believed Aoqi's words

and put him

and his subordinates

in prison

After that

I became wary of the Clay Bodhisattva Sect

After much investigation

I finally discovered the secret in the statue

You said this clay statue was harmless

but why did my servant

faint because of poison?

I will give you three days to leave Chang 'an

or

I will take your life

Run, Your Lordship

Run, Your Lordship

Aoqi disguised himself as me

and advised the emperor to popularize the Clay Bodhisattva Sect

The emperor accepted it

and decided to build a clay Bodhisattva reaching the heaven

And the emperor began to drive out all those who opposed it

I was badly wounded at that time

and desperately needed a place to stay

And here I am

after wandering around

I did not expect that

there are people like Lin Yue

who have courage, martial capabilities

and concern about the world in this village

Suffering from wars since childhood

they understand that the Tang Emperor is the foundation of national peace

They are willing to help me protect the country

Now the emperor has been deceived by the wicked

For the country

and the people

we are gonna save the

country with all our efforts

Young man

I'm the one who wronged you

I apologize to you

If you hadn't consented to Aoqi's request

if you hadn't helped him preach

you wouldn't be here today

You said

you wanted to serve the country and people

When will you serve us?

For the Tang Empire

We, special officers

are naturally sacrificed

What the Clay Bodhisattva Sect has done in Chang'an

was caused by me

For Tang, I shall terminate it

For Tang?

Prove it to me

I need your assistance

Forget about it!

Don't get me involved in such things

You, as a special officer

should be clear about loyalty and duty

I have done enough of loyalty and duty

It's not worth it

But you should at least

protect the people of Chang'an from the evil sect

shouldn't you?

If I protect the people

who will protect me?

Who will collect my corpse?

You are young and capable

I was poisoned

Your poison

was eliminated long ago by the villager with herbs

I am grateful to them

Here is my advice

This place is really good

Just live a good life here

and forget your useless patriotism

You

saved me once

I will not forget it

Time for dinner!

Thanks

This is yours

Smells good!

Come on

Take your time

Thanks

Here is more

No need to rush

Here you are

Thank you

It's hot!

Brother, here you are

Wow!

Terrific!

Awesome!

Fill more antidotes into the tubes

Tiepen

Qihu

Follow my actions

Well

Here we go

When you're grilling fish

you should turn it over in time

There is a restaurant in Chang'an, where the grilled fish tastes so good

Next time you go there

I will treat you to that

It's still early in the morning

What's up?

We are going to Chang'an

You really don't wanna come with us?

No, I don't

We are not the same

We want different things

I just don't understand

Why don't you stay here and live a good life?

Isn't this place good?

Brother!

What're you doing?

Let's have some fun?

Brother

wait for me!

If this can last forever

it is surely good

Brother

Sister Lin let me give you this

Come in

Your clothes have been mended

Thanks

You are leaving now?

I have to make it back before the next prayer ceremony

Chang'an is now

packed with bewitched people and cultists

The antidotes against the hallucination

have been prepared these days

Even if the emperor cannot be saved

saving a few lives will be good enough

Are you coming with me?

I just don't get it

You're just a young girl

Why do you have such an ambition?

I just want peace for everyone

Peace for everyone?!

I have no idea what you've experienced

So, I won't force you

But I hope you can understand

the right to choose

is always in our own hands

Ridiculous

You serve others today, and they will serve you later

Where are the others?

Every time I was in need of help

where the hell did they go?

Wake up!

The jujube in here

is sweet!

Take care

Why are you still here?

I've helped the villagers settle down

I'll set off tomorrow

Wanna talk me down again?

Saving Chang'an will be fine without me

One more person

leads to one more hope

Hope?

Your hope

is fake

A fake hope

is still a hope

Well

I hope you'll make it

Hope

There are not so many hopes

I am aware that

Chang'an

no one waiting for me there

But, if

we don't go

back to Chang'an now

Chang'an will no longer exist

Chang'an

Do as told by your mother

Yes

Bring him up

And let him forget revenge

Brother, where are you going?

Home

Brother

where is your home?

Chang'an

[Supreme Being Palace]

From the beginning of the universe

offerings have been made to immortals

Since all immortals

and mountains are worshipped

favorable weathers are in place

and bumper harvest comes to us

The people stand in awe

repaying the blessing of heaven

They dare not ask for favor

or blessing from the immortals

Just hope for no pandemic

No evil spirits roaming by

Wild animals and insects

stay where they should be

If peace prevails in one's residence

the immortals will bless with brightness

Their sincerity is expressed

in the ritual officials' remarks

Why are you here?

You said we should take the right to choose

And I chose to go home

The Left Prime Minister should be here soon

He won't come

He is now with the villagers

His job

I'll do it

[Chengtian Gate]

Clay Bodhisattva, please

bless us with peace and prosperity

Kowtow!

The Tang Emperor is incompetent

so the Li family should abdicate

in favor of the Prime Minster

Bloody hell!

Clay Bodhisattva, please

bless us with peace and prosperity

bless us with peace and prosperity

Just pray to your budda

You're late

Go to hell!

You are really lucky

to still have breath now

I don't have money to tip you

We're here for the antidotes

This

is not a real left prime minister

Real or not

he has the antidotes

What is this?

Let's fight together

Everything is a matter of conspiracy

It will generate hallucinations

Just a bewitching trick!

Chang'an, no one waiting for me there

One more person

leads to one more hope

If we don't go back now

Chang'an will no longer exist

Kill me

and you will get nothing

You are still a special officer

A special officer is still an officer

You are only a pawn of the imperial court

No one will care about you

Chang'an will

Chief Wang!

Wearing the uniform of a special officer

you feel all right?

Not a special officer

but a special chief

An imperially commissioned special chief

Fragrant pouches

Beautiful pouches

Miss

want a pouch?

So lovely!
