EPISODE 41

Madam Guo.

Since we're at Mount Zhongnan,

why not go straight to the Tomb to save your daughter?

Thank you for your concern

but I have ties with Quanzhen.

Since we're here, let's greet them.

Based on what you said,

if my baby is with Guo'er,

she won't be in danger.

Since you decided, I won't insist.

Madam Guo. Leader Qiu invites you up the mountain.

Okay.

Let's go up.

Taoist Li, you come too.

I'm not going up.

I'll wait here for you.

Chongyang Palace is righteous; how can a demon go?

Let's go.

Please.

Relax; I took care of Xiang.

Is she hungry?

I fed her gruel; she fell asleep.

We can't delay treatment.

I'll direct heat to your acupoints.

You circulate your energy; open the acupoints.

Once heat reaches the Bed,

your injuries can improve a bit.

To clear your 36 major acupoints takes up to 14 days.

Normal distractions can prolong it.

But our isolated Tomb is ideal for this skill.

Quanzhen injured me.

ChongYang set up this Tomb and Bed. That evens it out.

Will we let Monk Jinlun off?

While I live, living in peace is good enough.

Okay, we'll do what you want.

After you recover, we won't fight anyone.

Luckily Miss Fu didn't cut off both arms

or you couldn't heal my injury.

I still have my legs.

I'd use my feet to cure you.

Don't complain then.

Let's start.

Taoist Qiu. Guo'er and Miss Long created an uproar.

Rong'er, don't say that.

I'm uneasy about this.

They're both missing; I've heard no news of them.

So they could be in the Tomb.

They went to the Tomb?

Rong'er, how's that possible?

Li Mochou said its main door is sealed.

Entry is by a water tunnel.

Guo'er stole a large chest.

to transport Miss Long there.

That's what happened.

Rong'er.

You're like your father.

'Wisdom is learned, but intelligence is endowed'.

Mom. Let's go to the Tomb to save Xiang'er now.

Although Yang Guo is eccentric,

he's honourable and righteous.

We must find him soon.

But first meet an old friend.

Old friend?

Senior.

Trying to scare me?

Senior, see who's here?

Who?

Little Huang Rong.

Little Huang Rong.

You haven't changed in years.

Little Huang Rong.

You changed little; still beautiful.

Why'd you drop in?

Where's my foolish Brother?

Okay, stop looking.

Jing's in Xiangyang.

Why'd you look for me?

I have a task to do

but first meet someone special.

Brother Yelu, show yourself.

Teacher.

Teacher, I wish you well.

May you always prosper!

Same to you.

Teacher! You mustn't!

Senior, he is...?

Come here.

I told you not to tell others I'm your Teacher.

Why'd you forget?

I didn't tell Madam Guo.

Why are you so stupid?

Paper can't wrap fire.

Who in Quanzhen would take a student under strange rules? Only you.

You know me best!

But as your disciple, why can't he tell your name?

You really don't know?

As a child, he was like me- chubby and playful.

I wanted a Junior disciple who'd be fun.

He came up short.

As he gets older, he's unlike you; to your regret, he follows rules.

- Right? - You.

Why are you no fun?

But his kungfu's not bad, so... Brother Qiu, you take him

to form the Quanzhen Eight!

Teacher, I'm no Taoist.

You are if I say so.

Yes, yes.

So be it.

Seniors, Leader.

A Mongol army arrived!

I see; we rejected their Edict.

A Mongol attack was inevitable; I didn't expect it so soon.

What will you do?

The Mongols will shed our blood.

Even if we had superb skills,

we can't stop thousands of Mongols.

I made plans to retreat west, deep into the mountain.

If you retreat, how will you keep face?

Senior.

Founder ChongYang worked hard to establish our sect.

How can his work go to waste?

I don't wish to go; but we must protect Quanzhen members

so we may return someday.

Is he for real?

Priest Qiu is right.

When there's life, there's hope.

Okay, we'll heed you.

Okay.

Brother, I humbly must leave.

Every disciple can carry things down the mountain.

Take care of yourself...

Okay.

Then go quickly.

Yes.

Come with me.

Rong'er, everyone.

The Mongol attack is inopportune.

You came from afar, yet I can't be a proper host. I'm sorry.

Priest Qiu. You're ably prepared.

This setback can lead you to a prosperous comeback.

We must find Yang Guo; we're leaving.

Travel safely.

Let's go.

Wait!

Disciple.

Aren't you Mongolian?

Teacher, my father opposed the Empress, and was unjustly slain.

I protect my sister; we're refugees.

I'm an ordinary citizen now.

Fine; or I'd cripple your kungfu.

Good; help Huang Rong.

- Yes, Teacher. - Who said 'Teacher'?

Let's go.

So you're Old Urchin's disciple.

Taoist Li.

We know Guo'er's in the Tomb.

Yang Guo and Sister are inside?

That's great.

You can get Jade Maiden Manual.

You're very smart.

You never intended to help; you only want that Manual.

Madam Guo, since you guessed, I'll get to the point.

I'll help snatch your daughter;

help me get that Manual.

As former Beggar Clan Chief, and a famed hero,

keep your word.

You're threatening us?

Sure, Madam Guo. Don't fall in her trap!

Taoist Li.

Guo'er is the son of a Brother.

He and I can sort out small issues.

If he has Xiang'er, he'll return her.

It isn't 'snatching'.

Then let's part ways.

Li Mochou!

Our revenge is due, right?

Right, Li Mochou.

Don't think of leaving.

If you want to kill me, go ahead.

Madam Guo. You solve puzzles.

Yang Guo is on this mountain.

Seems you don't need me.

Mom. The entrance is hidden, hard to find.

Yang and Miss Long are in the Tomb.

They must come out for supplies.

Wait patiently; we'll meet them.

"Watch a tree stump, catch a rabbit".

Great idea.

Madam Guo.

Why waste time? Let's kill her.

Right!

Taoist Li.

What we do depends on you.

I need to find Yang Guo. Come with me.

The Tomb entrance is sealed.

Enter by this underground waterway.

Whoever swims well, follow me.

I grew up on the Isle; swimming's easy.

Right, we two will go.

I swim poorly, but I can hold my breath.

Okay. And Madam Guo?

Madam Guo recently gave birth; she can't go.

Yan and Sister Wanyan can't swim; stay with Madam Guo.

- But... - Madam Guo.

I want to meet Brother Yang; Miss Guo and I will go.

Can you swim?

Yes, Madam Guo.

My brother lived near a river; he swam even in winter.

All sorted out? Let's leave.

Yelu, Li Mochou is brutal.

She may backstab; be vigilant.

Don't worry.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Be careful.

I got it, Dad.

Long'er, rest a little.

Then I'll open the major acupoints.

Once those points open,

your internal injuries can heal.

Guo'er, is this hard on you?

No.

Long'er, you can't be distracted or it can go badly.

It could be fatal.

Relax, I won't make you worry.

Without Taoist Li, how could we imagine this world?

The lamps are all lit

so Yang Guo must be here.

Just come with me.

Li Mochou, where are you taking us?

Come with me to find Yang Guo.

Don't talk uselessly.

Do you know the way?

Li Mochou, don't try any tricks.

I have no tricks

but there are many traps.

Li Mochou, don't go!

Stop!

Miss Guo, be careful!

Damn! Now that witch left, what do we do?

Don't worry; if Li Mochou went out, we can get out.

We'll suffocate in here first.

What use is your whingeing?

Are you useful?

Are you done arguing? Hurry and look for an exit!

Stop arguing.

Everyone look for an exit.

Come on.

I got rid of those people.

Sister and Yang Guo think I can't swim

and can't secretly attack them.

Are they actually here?

trying to clear 'Middle Altar' acupoint

Terrors within can't be smelled, or seen. Illusions aren't real.

Only Li Mochou knows the way in.

It's a crucial moment.

My wife and I will be helpless.

What do we do now?

I hope you two are well.

Why'd you come here?

You really don't know why?

You want Jade Maiden Manual?

My wife and I secluded ourselves from conflict.

Okay.

I'll give you Jade Maiden Manual.

Bring it here.

She thinks it's a book; but it's carved on a wall.

I'll tell her the truth. The Manual is obscure; let her ponder.

We need a few hours.

After Long'er's acupoints open, we'll kill Li Mochou.

So you're healing her.

This time, heaven is helping me.

Thanks for helping me, Sister.

Li Mochou.

Without your Palm,

Long'er's acupoint wouldn't open fast.

Long'er, what's wrong?

Her Palm had poison.

You don't know my Red Serpent Palm is poisonous?

Let's go.

This kid's kungfu is strange; and he's strong.

I'll let the poison take effect before going near him.

Long'er, how are you?

We must cure each other now.

See where you can run!

After the poison takes effect, see what I do to you.

Guo'er, what's wrong?

Li Mochou.

Even if I die, you can't have Jade Maiden...

Guo'er, are you alright?

Li Mochou.

This Jade Maiden Manual

will never be yours!

Jade Maiden Manual!

Jade Maiden Manual.

Liar!

This stone coffin is 300 kilograms.

Stay there till you die!

I'll purge your poison now.

Li Mochou, you witch, trapping us.

So despicable!

You knew Li Mochou was evil.

You didn't guard against her; why complain?

Shut up! Said enough?

We kindly came to find your sister

but you insult us?

That's ingratitude.

Brother, don't argue with her.

You all...fine, I'm bad.

Everything's my fault, alright?

Nevermind.

I was wrong; don't cry.

An apology is enough.

Don't cry.

Then I'll kill you now, then apologize, okay?

That's unreasonable!

How's that compare?

Stop fighting! He didn't mean it!

- Don't fight. - Don't fight.

You never acted like this to me.

What's wrong with us now?

Now you treat me like this, I won't forgive you easily!

Okay, kill us; up to you, okay?

- I hate you! - What useis that?

Stop bickering!

I hear someone crying.

It's a baby crying.

It's my little sister.

It's my little sister!

Then we have hope.

But sister is a baby.

How can she rescue us?

We can hear her crying.

The two rooms must secretly connect.

Right! Brother Yelu is smart!

Brother Yelu is obviously smart!

You two couldn't think of it.

- You... - Okay, stop it.

Don't fight over trivialities.

If I'm not wrong, these rooms interconnect.

A wall section will be thin.

Move aside.

We must combine inner energy

- and open it together. - Okay.

It's my little sister!

Look!

I'll go first.

Xiang'er.

Come.

- Xiang'er. - Don't cry.

Don't cry.

Xiang'er, be good.

Don't cry.

Why's Xiang'er still crying?

She might be hungry.

There's a bowl of honey.

You're so smart!

Xiang stopped crying.

Great! Without Xiang's crying, we'd still be trapped.

Now let's find that evil witch and repay her.

Okay.

Let's leave.

Come on.

Let's go.

Silver Soul Freezing Needles

I'll give her a taste of her own medicine!

Don't worry.

I'll force out your poison.

Where's the evil witch hiding?

Let's check over here.

Don't fear, Long'er; it's nothing.

The coffin cover isn't fully closed.

So you're in there!

See how powerful I am!

Long'er!

Be careful!

- Yang Guo? - Brother Yang!

Yang Guo.

Miss Long.

I didn't know it was you in there.

So I threw in poison needles.

But Mom has the antidote.

When Li Mochou poisoned our two condors, Mom cured them.

But why were you in the coffin?

Why is it you again?

Why's it always you?

What are you doing?

What do you want?

Guo'er, forget it.

Maybe it's my fate.

Let's not resent others.

Don't be angry.

Here.

This... this...

You're so arrogant.

I didn't hurt you on purpose.

Isn't it okay if I just apologize? Why are you mad?

What's bad about two needles?

Brother Yang, don't get mad.

Li Mochou trapped us five in a secret room;

it was hard to escape.

Miss Guo was rash, mistaking...

Who was rash?

You thought it was Li Mochou.

Why else didn't you speak?

Guo'er. I don't want them here.

Tell them to leave.

Leave!

Brother Yang.

Don't be upset.

Madam Guo sent us all here.

For this child, you'd kill my beloved?

Kill your beloved?

Your wife was poisoned by needles.

Madam Guo has the cure; she's outside.

Do you know what you've just done?

The poison attacked my wife's major acupoints.

However skilled Madam Guo is,

can she resurrect the dead?

What wrong did Mom do to you?

You had no family;

she fed you, sheltered you.

You ungratefully stole my sister.

You really like this child.

I will steal her today

and let you regret it for a lifetime.

He took my sister.

Chase them!

Li Mochou, don't run.

Li Mochou left too.

What will we do?

Your Mom will have a plan; we'll go out!

Come.

Let's go quickly.

Come on!

Come on.

Let's go!

This way!

Okay!

Faster!

The Mongols must've set fire to the mountain.

Mom!

Mom, where are you?

Mom!

Mom!

It's Mom!

- Miss Guo! - Sister Fu!

Miss Guo.

- Sister Fu! - Miss Guo!

Mom!

Be careful!

Mom!

- Mom! - Danger!

Miss Guo!

- Miss Guo! - Fu'er.

Mom!

Where are you?

Mom!

'I ask the world, what is love'

'that binds from life to death?'

Mom!

How is it you?

Miss Guo.

The fire is intense; be careful.

Have you seen my mom?

Your mom? Isn't she right there?

Don't fret; your mom will seek you.

Since the fire is fierce,

you'll be burned alive!

Save me!

Save me!

Who will save me?

Save me!

Guo'er, you won't save her?

That girl harmed us both; it's just deserts.

Come save me!

She cut off your arm, and I wanted to kill her.

But if you don't save her,

you may regret it later.

My not killing her is enough. Let's go.

Guo'er, you should go.

Mom!

You came to mock me?

Catch!

Thanks.

It will take time to regrow.

I wonder how it will like.

Long'er.

It's just Mongols setting fires as our wedding candles.

Miss Guo, are you alright?

Brother Yang.

Brothers Tianzhu and Zhu are trapped in Passionless Valley.

Will you rescue them?

Let's go.

They burned Chongyang Palace.

ChongYang's efforts went to waste.

It's a relief Quanzhen members already left.

What about Fu'er and the others.

Mom!

- Mom! - Teacher. - Sister.

- Fu'er. - Mom!

I found you!

How are you?

- Were you injured? - No.

Madam Guo.

Brother Wu, what's the situation?

Did you meet Guo'er or Xiang'er?

We met them; but Yang Guo snatched her.

Snatched her?

What's the problem?

Madam Guo, don't worry.

Yang won't harm Xiang'er.

He took her because he was upset.

Just now, Li Mochou harmed Fu'er

and he saved Fu'er.

Our family owes Guo'er so much.

Since Brother Yang has Xiang'er,

and Miss Long is fatally poisoned,

they won't go far; we can catch up.

Guo'er's Passion Flower poison still can't be cured.

Mongols troops are now hunting Quanzhen members.

Running into Mongols means problems.

Mom, let's get Dad to help us.

The enemy is close. How can your dad leave Xiangyang?

How about this?

Xiang'er isn't in danger.

Why not go to Passionless Valley

and save Brothers Tianzhu and Zhu?

Good. Brother Yang may go to Passionless Valley.

Let's set out now.

- Okay. - Fine. - Let's go.

The snow fall is heavier.

We must get off the mountain or get snowed in.

Guo'er, where'd Sister go?

You still care for her?

She didn't deserve to live.

Sister is pitiful.

Mount Zhongnan is on fire;

will the Guo group bump into Mongols?

Will Quanzhen members survive?

Do you know why your Teacher

wanted you to cut off emotions?

Your heart is too kind;

she feared you'd suffer.

She never imagined we'd meet.

All your years of practice were wasted.

Now I think about it,

I wronged our Founder.

Right, you're so good;

you made me care.

It can't be changed now.

It's fate, bitter and sweet.

Long'er, it's a wooden house.

Let's see if there are people.

- Fine. - Let's seek shelter.

Let's go.

Anyone home?

Guo'er, there are no lights.

It's probably a hunter's shelter

but hunting season is over.

I doubt anyone's there.

Heaven helped us; go in.

Looks like a hunter's house.

You'll be hungry; I'll find food.

I'm fine; Xiang'er seems hungry.

I'll find honey for her.

Give Xiang'er some.

Come...

I don't know why I snatched her.

I added to my problems.

Xiang is cute; don't you like her?

She is cute

but she isn't our child.

Beggar Clan Brother He Shiwo & Huo Dou

Today Mount Zhongnan burned. It was well done.

Mongol Royal Army has defeated countless enemies.

Wiping out Quanzhen Taoists

was like crushing an ant nest.

Why are you with me, not with Teacher Jinlun?

Let's find a quiet place out of this gale and talk.

Okay.

There are lights ahead; let's go there.

Okay.

- It's right here. - Right.

Long'er.

They're Wulin people.

Their kungfu may be alright.

I'll greet them. Take Xiang'er inside; pretend to be sick.

It's snowing heavily.

May we rest inside?

Isn't this Huo Dou's voice?

Young gentleman.

We ran into heavy snow; may we stay the night?

Right, is it convenient?

What do you mean?

I'm just a humble hunter.

If it's not too lowly, come in.

There's charcoal.

Help yourselves.

In the morning, I need to hunt deer.

I can't keep you company.

Do as you please.

Mother of my child!

Is your cough better?

I can't handle the cold.

I must be with them.

Farewell.

It's just a lowly hunter.

What's so urgent?

Brother He.

Quanzhen and Beggar Clan

were the largest obstacles to Mongol conquest.

Quanzhen is destroyed; Beggar Clan remains.

If you help wipe out Beggar Clan,

I swear you will be richly rewarded.

You hurried me here just for this?

I hope you get rid of Chief Lu.

I don't have the nerve.

Brother He.

What do you mean?

I know my abilities.

With my low kungfu, it's hard to get near Chief Lu.

And things have changed.

Huo Dou, I do know

you and Jinlun parted badly at Mount Zhongnan.

It will be hard to meet Kubhilai.

What you promised me will be hard to fulfil.

Brother He.

I pledged loyalty to Fourth Prince. What can Jinlun do?

If I earn great merit, Fourth Prince will favour me.

If you get rid of Beggar Clan,

I can make you South Province Chief General.

"A beggar is too lazy to be an official."

We get on well; let's take our time with this.

I'm hungry; I'll hunt wild fowl.

That disobedient dog

isn't worth keeping.

I bet Huo Dou will kill that Beggar Clan traitor.

That's good; we needn't act.

Guo'er, I want to spend our time happily.

It's best they kill each other.

I know.

Young sir, please open the door.

Long'er, your wish didn't come true.

Huo Dou is back.

It's not his voice.

It's the other man.

Hide for a bit.

May I ask, young sir,

where my friend went?

Your friend?

Yes.

Seems he's looking for you.

Looking for me?

Isn't he back?

Guo'er.

You didn't expect a lowly hunter to know about acupoints.

Guo'er.

These people should be killed.

Long'er. Want to build a snowman?

Okay!

Alright.

Long'er, this snowman looks good.

He's fat and round!

A pair is more fun.

A pair?

I have a plan. When Huo Dou returns, he'll be his partner.

Okay?

Long'er, it's cold; let's go inside.

Young gentleman.

Where'd my friend go?

I don't know; he didn't came back.

Didn't came back?

He didn't.

Where did he go?

Would he have gone...
