~ Episode 34 ~

Older brother!

Kill him!

I can't kill him. He's my younger brother.

If you insist that I kill him, then I'd rather leave the assassins camp.

Do you think that this is child's play?

Older brother!

You indeed have good martial arts skills.

Thank you, City Leader.

City Leader, I'm willing to serve you.

I hope you can give me a chance.

"Craftsmanship of Invention."

Xiao Si, do you read these kind of books?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I just feel that a girl reading this kind of book is quite strange.

Oh, right. What is your name?

Don't you already know?

You really are called Xiao Si?

That's right.

This...

Is that dog seller... really your godfather?

Do you know? I worked at his side for so many years

only to let him take me with him to the capital one day.

Now this is it.

No one will take me to the capital anymore.

- So did you work for him just for him to take you to the capital? - Yes.

Your home isn't here in Pirate Bay?

I don't have a home.

My parents are all dead.

Sorry.

Then why are you going to the capital?

Because I hate this place so much.

My dreams are stars, oceans and the Dept. of Amusement in the capital.

I really can't stay one second longer in this rotten place anymore.

I really wanted to just burn down this place, to destroy it.

Xiao Si,

do you know? When I was your age,

I also had a lot of hatred that I didn't know where to vent it out.

Sometimes, I even wanted everyone around me to just completely disappear.

That's why, I can totally understand how you are feeling.

Can you really understand?

Of course.

I really hope that one day, I can create the sky wing in my book.

It can bring me to the places I want to go.

As long as I'm not happy anymore, I can just fly away.

You really dare dream.

Of course.

If you dare not to dream, how can you count on it to come true?

That's right, too.

One must have dreams. What if they really come true?

Older Sis, Yuan Shuai was gone early this morning.

You tell me, where can he go without telling us?

I thought he went to take revenge on Xiao Dao.

But I secretly asked people to help me ask about it.

There are no movements at Xiao Dao's camp.

Older Sis, could he have suddenly remembered something,

he has recovered his memories and knew we lied to him, and then...

I also thought of that possibility.

But the clothes he wore when he came here and that drawing have no signs that they were touched.

That's why, we can disregard that possibility.

Hey, a big man, just leaving like that without saying a word.

Disappearing just like that.

Really can't take it.

What's going on?

Older Sis, there seems to be someone outside.

At this time, who would come?

Could it be Xiao Dao coming here to cause trouble?

Hey, you two are both here?

You... Where did you go these past days? Where did you go?

- You deserve to be hit! - Do you know how worried we both were?

Where did you go? You even dared to smile?

Hey, Xiao Cai! If you keep being this fierce, what if no one dares to marry you in the future? What would you do?

Don't change the subject.

We are talking about you.

Don't be angry first.

Look at what I have found this time.

Older Sis, isn't this...

Where did you get this stuff?

This is what I'm going to explain to you two.

Then hurry and say it.

That time, Xiao Dao falsely accused me of putting in poppy seeds inside the sauce.

At that moment, I felt that all my blood was rushing into my brain.

It's fine if he insulted me about other things but when he said that I put in poppy seeds in my sauce,

that's totally throwing my culinary belief in a cesspit to trample upon.

This is something that I totally can't accept.

How can I take it?

That time, I was totally so mad.

Xiao Dao saw exactly how you treat cooking as your life,

that's why he deliberately set this trap.

Maybe we have been too careless.

He even instigated those ignorant customers to create a disturbance.

The only thing I could do then was to keep the peace and calm the people.

Or else, the situation would surely have gotten out of control.

Enough already, stop blaming yourselves.

Since the matter has happened, we should bravely face it.

Learning from this.

Yuan Shuai, hurry and tell us about these poppy seeds.

Afterwards, all the customers had left.

I also slowly calmed down

and also understood Xiao Cai's good intentions for doing that.

But how can I just watch him destroy the business we worked hard to build?

I thought about it back and forth

and decided to start the investigation with this.

As long as we are able to find the source of the poppy seed,

and then prove that Xiao Dao previously bought it,

wouldn't that prove that we are innocent?

That's right.

Good thing that Heaven doesn't disappoint an earnest person.

Very soon, I found that poppy seed seller.

Stop beating around the bush with me.

I know who you are.

You are that cook in the All Seasons Hot Spring Inn, right?

Bro, I heard that he owed you quite a lot.

Xiao Dao, indeed owed me money.

I also know that he used the poppy seed he got from me to destroy your business.

But if you plan to use me to defeat him,

then you have come to the wrong place.

I heard that he has a small money safe.

The amount in there is quite huge.

Really?

Totally true.

Where?

Then you have to ask him yourself.

The small money safe you said is just something you made up, right?

Hey, how come you don't believe me, either?

That small money safe is real.

I heard that Xiao Dao actually planned to give it to you as dowry.

But if we really let him succeed,

wouldn't that just be giving out from his left hand and then receiving by his right hand?

In the end, it'll still end up with him.

Yuan Shuai, you're so great. You even thought of such an idea.

Right now, that Xiao Dao must have already been beaten half to death,

that he has already vomited out all the contents of that small money safe.

Actually, if not because he did such a cruel move on us,

I didn't want to do this, either.

I finally can be able to be at ease.

Hey, I think that customers might be coming in later.

- Let's hurry and go prepare. - Okay.

Wait.

I still haven't finished talking.

- From now on, no matter what happens in the future, you should discuss it with us first. - That's right.

Don't be like what you did this time, just deciding on your own. Understand?

Yes.

This time, I wasn't comprehensive in my considerations.

I will be take a note of it next time.

Older Sis, didn't you say that we were driving him away?

Quickly go back to work.

Saying one thing but doing another thing.

Isn't it still because you can't bear to?

Let go of me!

Who are you?!

Let go of me!

You guys dared to touch me, Older Bro Dao?

If you have guts, let me see who you all are!

Don't play underhanded moves on me.

Do you all not want to live anymore?! Yes?

Untie him.

You really were making quite some noise recently.

Mister Six?

It's really hard to see you.

That's why, I asked these men of mine to bring you here.

Mister Six, I was just talking nonsense earlier.

Don't put it to heart.

Mister Six, I also struggle for survival daily to be able to live till now.

This is also thanks to Mister Six granting me a way to live.

Stop talking about irrelevant things.

You owed me so much money and took so many supplies from me.

Let's settle it today.

Mister Six, I really don't have any money.

Even if I do have some and I don't pay you back, then I am your grandson.

If not because I got some news, I won't ask you to come here, either.

You wanted to marry that Zhou Xiao Cai that owns that hot springs.

Hence, you were able to save up quite a lot of money.

Is there such a thing?

None. None. Definitely not true.

Mister Six, from whom did you hear those lies?

You really won't cry until you see your casket, is that it?

Come. Put him inside a sack.

The fish in the sea today will have him as meat to eat.

Hey! Mister Six! Mister Six, have mercy!

Mister Six, I... I indeed have a bit of money.

We could have been done earlier on if you had just said it sooner. Where is it?

Okay. Okay. I'll say it.

I hid it under the large water jug in my backyard.

I dug out a hole and all the money was buried there.

Okay, already. I know the place now.

Put him in the sack.

Mister Six! Mister Six! I already told you everything! How come you are still...

Are you not going to follow the rules?

What that fatty from the hot springs inn said is right.

In dealing with a person like you, one must use poison against poison.

Fatty?

It was him who betrayed me?

It was indeed him.

But it's also fine to tell you about it now.

You want to take revenge on him? Just wait for your next lifetime.

Mister Six, I beg you to have mercy.

Mister Six, didn't that Yuan Shuai say to just drag Xiao Dao around the public square and let the public see him?

He asked us not to kill him.

Why must I listen to him?

A person like him has a woman's benevolent heart.

What I'm doing now is helping him eliminate a future disaster.

I understand!

Mister Six! Mister Six! I beg you to spare my life!

Mister Six! Mister Six, have mercy! Mister Six!

Mister Six! Have mercy!

This is not a place where you can ask questions.

Do you know what this place is?

This is Lord Xiu Fu's royal palace.

Leave!

- What did you say? - I told you to leave!

So it's one of the four masters of the netherworld assassins camp.

Sorry. I wasn't able to recognize you.

It's fine. I also just got back from outside.

This...

Let's talk in private.

Please.

Senior Brother, you have finally returned.

Who is it?

You don't know me?

I don't care who you are.

This is a restricted place of the netherworld assassins camp.

Unauthorized personnel, get lost.

What are you being noisy about?

This lady trespassed into our restricted area.

It's Administrator Lan.

What Administrator Lan?

Bastard! Do you know who she is?

This is the source of earnings by our netherworld assassins.

This is our Administrator Lan.

Aren't you all still going to pay your respect?

So it's Administrator Lan.

I wasn't able to recognize you.

Hope you can forgive me.

Enough already.

I heard that today, the academy's competition has ended.

I especially brought some food and drinks over to reward everyone.

What? Still won't let me in?

Could it be you want me to leave the food and drinks here at the door?

I dare not.

Administrator Lan, please.

Xiong Fei! Xiong Fei!

Lan Ling?

Don't say anything anymore. Come with me.

Teacher, Princess Zi Su.

What have you found out?

I already learned that Zhan Xiong Fei got locked up in the assassins camp's prison.

Getting locked up with him are Ding Song and Ma Shun.

What's going on?

It's not hard to guess what has happened.

This underground city is Lord Xiu Fu's world to begin with.

Evil people meeting evil people, what do you think will happen?

But... there are so many skilled martial arts masters in the assassins camp.

What should we do to be able to get them out?

Teacher, this you don't know already.

Only if they are locked up in the assassins camp's prison can we have the chance to save them.

The assassins camp's prison is mainly to hold assassins who were punished.

The security is way more lax that inside Lord Xiu Fu's prison.

Hero Qian, do you have a way then?

Tomorrow, I'll go ask for information from the assassins inside the assassins camp.

Why are you not working in our shop and instead came here?

I heard that you will come here every month on this day to wait.

Xiao Mei is being talkative again.

Don't you feel that there are some waiting that's like waiting for a ship in a forest, it will never happen?

Yuan Shuai, I don't want to hear you say these odd words.

But I really don't want to keep seeing you waste your time.

What about me?

What do you all want to see me like?

In all your eyes, I am a complete laughing stock.

Isn't that so?

Xiao Cai, don't say such things about yourself.

Right now, I am your fiancé.

Of course, I have to take responsibility for you.

Fiancé?

Yuan Shuai, stop being stupid now.

You are not really my fiancé.

That was just a lie I made because I panicked.

You and me don't have any relationship at all.

Xiao Cai, what did you say?

Do you want me to say it more clearly?

From the start, I was just fooling you! Using you!

Do you understand?!

I am a big liar!

And you are a big idiot!

No way!

You are not a big liar

and I am not an idiot.

Although I can't remember my past,

for every day, every hour, every moment since I lost my memories,

I can remember it very well.

Speech and actions may lie, but one's gaze cannot.

Xiao Cai, you do have some feelings for me, right?

Stop fooling yourself already!

The one who is fooling oneself is you. Not me!

Do you think that by wrapping yourself up, you won't be hurt by anything anymore and

you can already block all external forces?

What you are doing is so wrong!

You think that if the Gao Ying Jun that you love so deeply will see you now,

will he be able to smile?

Okay, even if what you said is right,

that I don't have any relationship with you and I am not your fiancé,

so what?

Today, I am swearing by this big ocean.

I, Yuan Shuai, will start wooing you, Zhou Xiao Cai.

Openly wooing you.

Xiao Cai, I want to protect you. Protect you for a lifetime.

I will make you the happiest woman in the world.

Are you willing to give me a chance?

Older Sis!

- What has happened? - Older Sis.

Ying Jun, Older Bro Ying Jun is back!

Xiao Cai, you still are that pretty.

You haven't changed at all.

This is a practice of the Western people. It's called kissing one's hand.

Xiao Cai, why are you not speaking?

Were you so excited after seeing me?

Seeing how you are dressed like this, my older sis might not be used to it.

Older Bro Ying Jun, you have really changed a lot.

It's fine. You all will get used to it after some time.

When I had arrived there, I also was not used to this kind of clothing.

But later on, I realized that this kind of clothing is way better than ours.

It's also more convenient to do things.

This one is...

Hello, my name is Yuan Shuai.

You must be a new waiter in our shop.

Ying Jun, you must be tired.

Quickly go back and rest.

I'll make you some dishes.

Xiao Cai, don't be busy about it anymore.

This is the first meal I made after coming back here. You must try it.

And in passing, check the result of my five years of training.

The weather today is really quite good.

The wind is mild. The sun is bright. Blue sky, white clouds.

That's right.

If you feel good, everything looks good.

Isn't that so?

Sometimes, there are things that one shouldn't think of too simply.

Cheng Ming Pan indeed got toppled by us already.

But I kept feeling that this isn't the end of the matter,

but the start.

What matter are you talking about?

Nothing.

Actually, it's just an intuition of mine.

Look. Just like this calm sea surface, not many surges in the waves,

but everyone doesn't know how turbulent it is underneath.

I have lived in this pirate bay for so many years but I rarely go out to appreciate this big ocean.

Say, don't I not know how to treasure things?

Everyday, I diligently research on those art pieces. Trying to find human pleasure in them.

Yet, in the end, I overlooked this ocean.

It actually is the most beautiful of them all.

Right now, I have decided to stop becoming an unaccomplished idiot.

I have to treasure what's now. Enjoy everyday.

Treasure the people in front of me.

What are you thinking?

You can't be thinking about that guy Bai Ze, right?

Why would I think of him?

It's just that I promised to help him save that lady , A Ji Ya.

And also, I made a deal with Da Fu that once Cheng Ming Pan dies,

he would send me that lady safely.

But that Cheng Ming Pan was able to escape

and he even took that lady with him.

Right now, we still don't know if Cheng Ming Pain is dead or alive.

I am a little worried.

This is also what I am worried about.

Only by seeing Cheng Ming Pan's corpse can we be sure of our future safety.

Or else, we are in the light,

while he is in the dark.

Are we going to guard against him for a lifetime?

Shaman Ding, I thought about it the whole night.

Since we are only able to find one green Magic Star after searching Zhan Xiong Fei,

then could it be that the other three Magic Stars are not really with him?

Because he totally has no need to only bring one Magic Star with him

and hide the other three.

Looks like City Leader still doesn't believe me.

No. No. No.

Shaman Ding, you misunderstood.

You are a person who has saved me.

Of course, I believe you.

I am just thinking that maybe he never had the other three Magic Stars.

That is also a possibility.

If you put it that way, then the three Magic Stars are still in the capital with that damned Emperor.

You have a point.

Then it means that we must catch this Princess Zi Su

so we can be sure of winning.

Yes.

City Leader,

this God's army has always been just heard of and never really seen.

I don't know, but what use do they have?

Shaman Ding,

imagine it for a while. An army who doesn't get tired,

doesn't get hungry, doesn't get hurt.

An army that only knows to bravely kill their enemies. Who won't want that?

So it's like that.

I will surely do my best to help you.

Good.

In our life, all the hustle and bustle is only just for interests.

Today,

I want to hear Shaman Ding to be honest with me.

What really is your purpose in looking for those Magic Stars?

City Leader, I already told you before.

I only wanted to pull that damned Emperor down his throne.

Right now, with City Leader having a God's army, everything would become very easy.

That's right.

Really a stupid lot.

Do you really think I'm that dumb to believe you?

Really a stupid lot.

Reporting to City Leader!

What is it? Could it be you have found that Princess Zi Su?

Zhan Xiong Fei has escaped from the assassins camp.

What?!

Oh, right. Do you still remember the first time we met?

I don't remember anymore.

Thinking about it, we must have known each other for so many years already.

Eight years already.

That time, you were still a little lady.

During the first time I saw you, you were arguing with a human trafficker in the streets.

It was my first time to see such an unyielding little lady.

With your weak and smaller body, you clearly would not win against him.

But you just would not yield no matter what.

And also you were holding a small dagger while confronting them.

They were hitting you while scolding you. Even pushing you.

You still would not leave.

At the start, I thought, "Did this little lady get robbed by these human traders?"

Later on, I learned why you were so unyielding, why you were risking your life to fight them.

Why aren't you continuing your story?

I don't want to say it anymore.

I am afraid that I might make you remember those painful memories of yours.

Anyway, that time, you really left me with a lasting impression.

And in a blink of an eye, so many years have already passed.

Right now, you have already become a Boss Ming Zhen that's respected in Pirate Bay.

For so many years, you have been secretly protecting and supporting me.

For so many times, conflicts arose between those barbaric pirates and I.

It was you who would personally or secretly tell your men to resolve it for me.

I know about all these things.

That's why, I am really grateful to you.

In this Pirate Bay, it can be said that you are my first real friend.

It's not important if I am the first one or not.

I just hope that I could be that forever one.

Do you know why I anchored the ship here?

I also want to ask you.

A few years ago, I saw that you spent so much money and hired so many workers to make this big ship.

I heard that you even willingly paid a high amount of money to buy these materials.

But I seemed to have never seen you use this ship and sail out into the seas.

And you don't anchor it in the port either

but instead here in this quiet seas.

Could it be just to look at the seas from time to time, bask in the sun?

I actually planned to keep enduring it, keep waiting for that day.

Which day?

I actually planned to give you a surprise on some future day.

Right now, since you already asked about this again, then let me tell you the answer

of why I anchored this ship here.

I want to wait for the day that you are willing to put down everything,

willing to leave this pirate bay with me.

Let's go away to a far away place together.

Come. Look at that direction.

What did you see?

My tavern?

Everyday, when I'm not doing anything, I would go look at your tavern.

Every time you appear,

I would feel unending happiness and blissfulness.

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Magic Stars Team @ Viki

Xiong Fei, stop blaming yourself already.

Eat some noodles.

I'm not hungry.

Even if you are not hungry, you still should eat some.

Seeing how much you care about that Ms. Zi Su,

she must be very pretty.

Tell me what she looks like then.

Even if you don't want to say it...

you still have to eat some.

Just for a Ms. Zi Su, it's not worth it.

I already told you, I don't want to eat!

Does it hurt?

So sorry. Earlier, I was too agitated.

It's nothing. You also are just in a bad mood.

It's my fault.

How can you be blamed for it? If there is anyone to blame, I should be blamed for being such a bastard.

You saved me but I didn't even thank you and instead got mad at you.

It's fine.

So sorry. I... am not good in bandaging.

If you really feel sorry about it, how about you tell me more stories about the outside world?

Okay.

Do you have anything else to tell me as to why you asked me to come to this ship?

It's because you are in a bad mood recently so I asked you to come here to relax.

Sometimes, when I quietly look at this sea,

I will remember a lot of my childhood days with my father.

After thinking about it, I will feel that my father is just close by,

not that far.

Your father's sudden departure

is actually a very heavy blow to the whole pirate bay.

That's why I urge you not to be so sad anymore.

Father is a great hero.

I remember that the weather then was very nice.

That was still when I was very little.

Father told me to wait for him to come back.

He then led his whole crew and sailed out into the ocean.

But that time, I was still very small. I knew nothing.

In the end, they unfortunately met a sea disaster.

He and that ship crew risked it all to battle the seas.

Yet, in the end, none were able to come back.

Afterwards, I will frequently come to this sea

and look at the ships on it and then think if it was father returning.

If it was his ship.

Days pass by, I kept looking like that for so many years.

I also know

that you love your father so deeply.

All the citizens here in Pirate Bay really respected and loved him.

Sometimes...

when I look at the sky, I can see

father's face smiling at me.

But when I look up again, nothing is there anymore.

Ming Zhen, don't worry. I will keep accompanying you and take care of you.

Ming Zhen! Ming Zhen, what's wrong? Do you feel unwell?

Luo Feng...

this wine...

Wine?

This wine...

Ming Zhen!

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Magic Stars Team @Viki

Ming Zhen!

Ming Zhen!

Ming Zhen! Ming Zhen!

Who are you?

What do you want?

You two, the wine you drank earlier wasn't bad, right?

It was you who poisoned the wine!

Despicable!

Who are you? What do you want to do?

Who am I?

I am your Lord Hou'er.

Do you still remember killing the captain and Hou Zi a few days ago?

They were my buddies!

What do you want?!

They were unwilling to be bribed by you and betray their captain.

You guys then killed them!

It was me who killed him.

If you have the ability, then kill me.

No!

Stop!

Ming Zhen just obeyed my orders!

This has nothing to do with her at all!

If you want to take revenge, then vent it towards me!

What really do you want before you will let her go?!

Today is the seventh day of my buddies' death.

Between the two of you, one must die.

As for the other one, it will depend on my mood.

I'll do whatever I want.

For every grievance someone is responsible, for every debt there is a debtor.

Your little brother was personally killed by me.

If you have the ability, then face me!

Let him go! It has nothing to do with him!

It was me who killed him!

I already investigated it well.

You wanted to topple Cheng Ming Pan so you sacrificed my buddy.

Today... none of you should dare think of leaving here alive.

Right. It was me alone who plotted to topple Cheng Ming Pan and kill your buddy!

Ming Zhen only obeyed my orders!

This has nothing to do with her!

If you want to seek vengeance, then get it from me!

I will not fight back!

The two of you, one being the master of the Qiu clan, Qiu Luo Feng,

the other one is the owner of the Ming Zhen Tavern in Pirate Bay.

Both of you look much like a human that is well-dressed

but behind one's back, you two did such a despicable thing!

Quite a pity for those buddies of mine. Just because of their loyalty, they refused to betray his captain.

It became a hindrance to your plan.

You then used a knife and stabbed it into his forehead.

You two are really beasts! Wrong!

Worse than a beast!

What are you planning to do?! Don't come forward!

What are you trying to do?!

What are you trying to do?!

No!

Stop!

I initially wanted to give you some time to say your farewells.

But you two didn't treasure it.

The two of you, who will die first?

Me! I'll die first!

If you want to kill someone, just kill me.

It has nothing to do with her!

Oh, right! I still have some information about your buddy. Don't you want to know it?!

My buddy's matter?

Hurry up and say it!

Actually at the start, we just wanted to convince him. We really didn't plan to kill him!

We even prepared a sack of gold for him.

It was he who refused us!

Of course.

My buddy is very loyal.

How could he betray his captain, Cheng Ming Pan, just for money?!

You have belittled your buddy.

Your buddy isn't as mighty as you think.

He actually refused us because he found the money to be too few.

He was a two-faced, scheming,

was never loyal, despicable low-life!

As the saying goes, "Humans die due to greed while birds die for food."

He deserved to die!

You are lying!

If you continue to make things up...

Fine! I'll cut her rope now and let her feed the fishes!

Ming Zhen, are you alright?

I'm fine.

You suffered very serious injuries.

I'm fine.

I caused you to be terrified earlier.

At that moment earlier,

I thought that I wouldn't be able to see you ever again.

Stupid.

From now on, I will never let you fall into a dangerous situation like this again.

I will protect you every day, every minute, and every second.

I will surely make you blissful.
