The Journey of FlowerEpisode 12

Qian Gu, once you leave this time,

I don't know when I can see you again.

Looking at the way you speak, it's like we're being separated by death.

Even though it's not through death, but look, now that you're leaving, and Brother Meng isn't here,

You're all leaving me!

Don't worry! I'll come see you!

Qian Gu! Promise me,

in the future no matter where you go, don't forget that you have me as your good sister.

Okay, I know. You and Man Tian are both my good friends.

Even though..

Why are you still thinking about Man Tian?

Let me ask you.

When has she ever treated you as a friend? She just treated you like a maid.

She was so cruel to you during the Immortal Sword Assembly.

And she also used such a low trick against you to injured you so seriously!

Just talking about it makes me angry!

That's all in the past. From now on, I'll go to the Hall of Emotionless.

I'll start a new life!

-What's wrong with me?-Qian Gu!

Qian Gu!

What's wrong? Qian Gu!

Qian Gu! (x2)

Where am I? It's so cold.

Just where is this?

Why is it so cold?

Ice bed? No wonder it's so cold!

Who... who lives here?

What a beautiful room!

The Hall of Emotionless!

So this is the Hall of Emotionless!

I've finally come to the Hall of Emotionless!

Honorable Superior!

Honorable Superior!

You're awake?

Greetings, Honorable Superior.

You should switch to calling me Teacher.

Greetings... Teacher.

Get up.

Your injury hasn't healed yet, that's why you suddenly fainted.

I brought you to the Hall of Emotionless to recuperate.

From now on, you can rest in the Hall of Emotionless.

There are many rooms in the Hall of Emotionless.

You can pick one that you like.

Thank you Teacher! Teacher... where is Tang Bao?

- Can he come live with me for some time?-He can.

After he saw that you were okay, he went to send Dongfang Yu Qing

and Yun Yin off. He'll be back soon.

If I knew earlier I should have woken up earlier. Then I could have gone together to see them off.

Tang Bao is already pretty familiar with this area.

After he comes back, he can take you around.

There are no places that you cannot go in the Hall of Emotionless.

There are only the two of us.

From now on, you don't have to be so reserved,

You can now go wherever you want,

You don't have to ask for my permission.

Master! Why... why do you accept me as a student?

It is not my intention!

Ni Man Tian played a dirty trick. She isn't worthy of being my student.

And, even though you are my student,

But later, if your performance get worse,

I would definitely kick you out!

I won't let you disappointed!

Your heart pulse was injured.

For now you cannot use inner power anymore.

But during this time, your learning cannot stop.

You must memorize all Cloud Arch Nine Forms.

Yes, Teacher!

Come with me.

Hua Qian Gu.

If you look down from here,

what do you see?

Teacher,

Forgive me for being shallow, but I only see Chang Liu Mountain.

How is it different from the past?

It is more wider and stronger.

What else?

Listen up.

Mortals can only use their eyes to see what is in front of them.

And we who cultivate immortality have to use our heart to feel everything.

We have to feel every flower and blade of grass.

Every situation and object.

Is this the Chang Liu in your eyes Teacher?

This definitely must be the world that Teacher sees.

Teacher, have you always been living alone here in the Hall of Emotionless?

Then how long have you lived here for?

Too long.

I cannot remember anymore.

Looking at all these mountains alone every day.

Watching over Chang Liu,

Watching over every sect.

How lonely that is!

Teacher, don't be afraid.

From now on, I will be here to be with you!

You won't be alone anymore!

How is practice going?

Teacher! I am working hard at practicing!

The first move! Clear River as To Perfection!

The second move. Blue Sea Makes Current.

I'll punish you to practice one hundred more times.

Teacher!

What is it?

That... Teacher..

I haven't eaten all day. I'm very hungry.

You want to eat?

Yes! I've been practicing all day with nothing to eat.

I didn't dare to go down to find something to eat.

Teacher, are you not hungry either?

- I'm not hungry.-Oh... I guess as an immortal you don't have to eat.

From today on,

you can go to the Afternoon Hall to eat.

Then..Teacher... c-can I bring it over here to eat?

You can.

Thank you Teacher! Then I'll go find something to eat now!

Wait a minute.

You can only eat when you are finished practicing.

You dropped your Temple Bell.

Be more careful from now on.

Mother, mother!

Hurry and get up! The sun is already shining on your butt! Hurry, you have to go say good morning to Honorable Superior, you're going to be late!

Why didn't you get me up earlier?

This is my first day greeting Teacher in the morning.

- I'm done for! (x3)-I'm sorry Mother, this bed was too comfortable! It was very good for my cultivation, so even I overslept!

How useless.

You are so useless!

You couldn't even beat a little girl!

Speak!

Is there use in keeping you?

Please don't be angry, Custodian of the Law. It was just a small mistake

- That let Hua Qian Gu get the chance to rise.-You are trying to change my mind?

Please spare me, Custodian of the Law.

Even though I didn't become Bai Zi Hua's disciple,

But I already have another plan. I will definitely complete your mission.

I will get the Flow of Light zither!

Flow of Light zither?

That is hidden in the Hall of Emotionless.

Based just on your skills,

you want to get the zither from Bai Zi Hua's hands?

Custodian of the Law. Stealing the zither,

is definitely impossible based on one person's ability.

But I've already found a useful helper.

-Who is it?-Ni Man Tian!

The Peng Lai sect leader's

precious daughter,

Ni Man Tian?

-Yes!-She's a person of Chang Liu!

Based on what would she help you?

Because she lost in Hua Qian Gu's hands.

She hates Hua Qian Gu terribly.

I will borrow her hand

and destroy Hua Qian Gu.

Bai Zi Hua will definitely have to immediately take another disciple.

At that time, Ni Man Tian will definitely be the one chosen.

But she has a weakness in my hands.

Not only would she steal the Flow of Light zither,

but if I wanted her to kill Bai Zi Hua,

I think she wouldn't be able to refuse!

Yin Shang Piao.

- Yes, Custodian of the Law.-I'll give you one more chance.

If you fail again..

You don't need to come back to see me!

I understand! Please don't worry, Custodian of the Law.

Teacher!

Teacher!

-Teacher!-I'm in the library.

Library?

Where is the library?

Teacher!

Teacher!

Teacher!

Teacher!

Where is the library?

Teacher!

Teacher!

Teacher! Greetings to Teacher!

I don't need it.

There are only the two of us in the Hall of Emotionless.

We don't need so many formalities.

If there isn't anything, don't bother me.

I will call you if I need anything. Get up.

Okay Teacher.

Memorize this book carefully. I will suddenly ask you anything about it.

Thank you Teacher!

Teacher, I will definitely work my hardest! I won't let you worry!

Go on.

Teacher, is there anything that you need help with?

For example... like cleaning, washing clothes... or massaging!

You can order me to do anything!

I don't need it.

Then I'll go now.

Little Bone.

Yes Teacher!

You'll have to memorize the Seven Best Chart based on your own ability.

You cannot let Tang Bao see, or have him explain it to you. Understand?

Also, you are not allowed to yell loudly in the Hall of Emotionless. I don't like loud noises.

Go on.

I know Teacher.

Mother! Honorable Superior really won't let me see this Seven Best Chart?

But this is the Seven Best Chart!

This is way more helpful than food to spirited bugs!

If I could take one look at it,

I would become a bug that would know everything!

Tang Bao, you know enough already. You don't need to know so much.

Mother, you really think that way?

Of course! You are my precious treasure.

Tang Bao is the most amazing and obedient!

Mother, you are the best! Mother, don't worry. For you, I won't even see one page of the Seven Best Chart!

Okay then.

Originally, I thought Teacher would teach me the Sect's legendary martial arts.

We should train at the top of the mountains.

But I didn't think that Master would have me read books!

Then is the book boring?

This book is so thin. I presume that I only need one day to memorize it well.

Teacher wants me to read it for a year!

Isn't that pretty great? You can easily and freely play around and finish learning! No pressure at all!

It's because there's no pressure that I feel strange.

Mother, don't get the benefit and still not say.

Tang Bao!

Mother, I should just go out. It'll be hard to resist with it in front of me.

Mother, learn well!

No way!

This manuscript, only only there is instruments,

musical knowledge, there are still zither scores,

flute scores, music scores!

Everything that has to do with music is inside!

My god! This book is amazing!

Every famous sword, every sect's beginnings and legends,

there's also masters of the sword!

Secrets of mastering swords.

Every sect's swordplay.

My god! There is everything here, and it's all clear!

There is also a section on plants.

Mystical animals, medicine and poisons as well as formulating fragrances!

But... didn't he say that I had to use one year to memorize one book?

Even if I use seven years to memorize one book I wouldn't be able to do it!

Heavens, are you joking with me together with Teacher?

However, Teacher just wanted me to memorize it, not learn it!

If I spend some more time to look at it,

I'll give it some more practice, and I should be able to memorize it all soon!

It can even play music.

If the music score could play music,

Then a swordplay manual could also..

I was once a illegitimate child of Shu Kingdom,

relying on Heaven’s Grace, inherited the Empire, ascend the throne

I certainly will follow my father’s teachings, advocate moral education

revive Yao and Shun’s benign administration, practise Han and Tang dynasties’ prosperousness

I hope all of you my right-hand men, be diligent and law abiding

the Emperor and the People as one, together we hold up the country

and let my Kingdom stay forever just like the heaven and earth, and shine like the sun and the moon!

May your Majesty live for ten thousands years!

Today, we have my elder brother Xuan Cong, with virtue and righteousness

also with qualities of sages and filial piety

Based on the previous emperor's wishes, he is to be named King Ming!

He will be in charge of the Chi Yan army and protect the capital!

Thank you, Emperor.

Please think again, Emperor!

I have already made him King Ming in front of all the lords!

Do you want me to go back on my word in front of everyone?

Your Majesty, King Ming has a heart of a wolf.

He only wants to steal the throne! You know that!

Lie Xing Yun. This position was my brother's to start with!

If he wants it now, I could always give it to him!

Your Majesty!

Alright.

I know what you're thinking of.

Get up.

I believe in my big brother. He definitely won't do that.

Besides, I have already promised you all to be the emperor now.

What else do you want me to do?

Originally when I left Chang Liu, I told Qian Gu

that I would hurry back to participate in the Immortal Sword Assembly!

If it goes on like this, Qian Gu will blame me for not doing as I said!

Lie Xing Yun.

Send someone to Chang Liu with a message.

Say,

With our one separation, I don't know what year or month we'll meet again.

Your Majesty, the new Scholar Champion has come to see you.

I don't want to see him!

Do you not see that I'm busy?

Your Majesty!

-Fine, fine. Have him come in!-Show him in!

Greetings, Your Majesty. May you live for ten thousand years.

What is your name?

Replying to Your Majesty, my name is Dongfang Yu Qing.

Why have you come again?

I didn't come to find you.

I heard that at the Immortal Sword Assembly you took on a disciple.

I came just to see the one who had the ability to become your disciple.

She is coincidentally not in the hall.

I heard

it is also a girl.

Is that important?

Why did you not take a few more disciples?

That way there will be more people to take care of you.

Now a male and female are alone inside the hall.

It will be a little inconvenient.

One day as a teacher is a father for life.

What is inconvenient?

This is the new scent that I created. It can help you be more at peace.

Since the demons have been worrying you recently. Regarding matters of Chang Liu

You shouldn't work too hard. Taking a disciple is good too.

It gives some vital human energy to the place.

This Hall of Emotionless won't be so cold and lonely.

Thank you.

Greetings Superior Immortal Zi Xun!

You are... Hua Qian Gu?

Super Immortal Zi Xun, I listened to your lesson last time and

I really like the scents that you make!

And I thought she was so powerful that she could become Zi Hua's disciple.

So it turns out that she's a stupid girl that's not even worth looking at.

Looks like Zi Hua was forced into a corner by Mo Yan so he just picked any random disciple.

- Mother!-You've come just in time! Watch me practice my sword!

This is the first time Tang Bao isn't sleeping by my side.

I'm not used to it at all.

Teacher!

Since ancient times, the zither was used to touch people's hearts.

But Teacher's zither melody is clear, tangible, harmonious and godly.

But there is not a single shred of emotion.

It really does make people feel empty.

It must be because Teacher is always alone up here.

He watches over this mountain, this vast area.

In this extraordinary world

A thousand years, ten thousand years.

Yue Zhan is the most common we encounter among Dui Zhan.

The Gu Qin (ancient piano) is the head of Four Arts, leader of the Eight Sounds.

It's sounds imprint the deepest memories and evoke the most emotion from people.

It's enough if you understand the others.

But you must learn only how to play the zither.

Have you read the book?

Teacher, I have looked at it and memorized it!

It's just... I haven't played it.

Come over here.

Yes.

Play for me.

Yes.

Little Bone.

I'll lead you on how to do it.

When you touch it, you must have movements. Let your thumb brush over everything.

And then, naturally move up and down.

When playing, the right hand fingers should not press down too hard.

This way the harmony will sound more clear.

Don't rush, pay attention to your breathing.

You must play each note with depth. Each note must be powerfully played.

Teacher is personally teaching me to play the zither!

But why are my hands so weak?

Do you understand?

U-Understood.

In your free time, practice more. The practice hall has many zithers.

Pick one that you like.

Thank you Teacher!

It's late.

Go and get some rest. Practice again tomorrow.

Qing Shui!

Tang Bao?

Why have you come? Where's Qian Gu?

Bones is very busy recently and cannot play with me.

That's why I came to find you to play! Why are you here washing clothes?

Don't talk about it. I haven't been able to master one type of swordplay at all.

Honorable Teacher Tao Weng punished me to come wash clothes and wouldn't let me learn magic.

You couldn't master the swordplay and have to be punished?

But Honorable Teacher Tao Weng is not as strict as Honorable Superior.

How come? Bones has not yet recovered from her injuries, but was told to practice swordplay everyday

He also wants her to memorize the Seven Best Chart.

Seven Best Chart?

That is one of Chang Liu's precious treasures!

There are many things inside that book!

Honorable Superior would let Qian Gu see even that?

That's right!

Mother Bones is always carrying that book around to read.

She's working very hard to learn it!

Qian Gu is too lucky!

If I knew it'd be like this, I'd throw my life in to have Honorable Superior as my teacher!

The key point still lies on fate and luck.

Well of course.

Even the Seven Best Manual was given to Hua Qian Gu.

Looks like Hua Qian Gu really found herself the right teacher.

What use is it if you glare at me?

Isn't she learning what she should and laughing at what she should laugh at?

Don't say that I didn't remind you.

No matter if you're jealous of her or admire her.

Nothing will change if you walk around looking angry like that.

Cut the crap! I, Ni Man Tian, don't need someone to teach me!

Tang Bao, have you seen Man Tian recently?

Every time I go down I only see Qing Shui and the others.

I haven't seen Man Tian for a long time.

I don't know if she's okay. Is she still mad at me?

Mother,

she bullied you so much during the Immortal Sword Assembly. Why do you still care so much about her?

She just wanted to become Honorable Superior's disciple.

Who doesn't want to become Honorable Superior's disciple?

If she has the ability, she can fight you fair and square!

Mother, you're eating very little recently.

Are you sick anywhere

Every day I stay inside the Hall of Emotionless,

it's so lonely.

It's been a month already!

I can count the times I've seen Teacher on one hand!

I eat three meals a day alone.

There is no quarreling over food. Thus how can I have appetite.

Then find someone to accompany you.

This is the Hall of Emotionless! It's not like just anyone can come up here.

Even Qing Shui and the others can't come up.

You aren't talking about Teacher?

Yeah!

Teacher is a immortal! Why would he need to eat?

Besides, I feel like Teacher is purposefully keeping a distance from me. He's always so cold.

That's why! Even more you have to think of a way to have him come eat with you!

That way, won't you be able to see him once every day?

Affection between a teacher and disciple has to be created slowly like this!

You're right!

Teacher. Teacher?

I purposely made a dish just for you. Please give it a try.

There's no need.

Teacher, for this dish, I've been busy all day! Just have a bite!

Just one bite!

How is it Teacher?

This is great! It's good if Teacher likes it.

Then Teacher, since you like this dish so much,

I have one more question for you.

Say it.

Teacher could you do me a little favor,

just a little one,

and have dinner with me? In the past, I always ate dinner with my father.

Later on I had Qing Shui and the others. But when I came to the Hall of Emotionless, I was all alone.

Look, I've become skinny from starving!

Alright.

Thank you Teacher!

Hang on!

What is it Teacher?

Where did this ice orchid come from?

I saw that the orchid outside was especially pretty!

And then I thought up of this dish and made it for you to eat!

This thousand year ice orchid,

from the freezing northern land,

was transplanted over here by me.

I worked so hard to make it grow, and it was difficult for it to open a few blossoms.

You made it into food?

You're not allowed to eat dinner!

Teacher! (x2)

I didn't do it on purpose!

Tang Bao, what's wrong? You keep crying.

Mother, my stomach hurts!

It must be because you secretly ate so many of Teacher's ice orchids.

Okay, I'll rub it for you.

Look at how greedy you are, always eating! You've gotten fat! So round!

How am I fat? I still have a waist!

A waist?

Where? Here? Or is it here?

-Or is it here?-That's too ticklish Mother!

First notes are so light you can barely smell,

Middle notes are like being attacked by waves, tempestuous and surging,

very intoxicating and inextricable.

Creating scents takes such a high level of intellect.

Superior Immortal Zi Xun sure is amazing.

Mother, mother!

What is it?

Hurry and go see Qing Shui with me!

Qing Shui?

What's wrong with Qing Shui? Tang Bao hurry and tell me.

She, she... Qing Shui, she-!

Hurry and say it, what's wrong with Qing Shui?

Qing Shui, don't cry anymore!

Brother Lang went to be the Emperor! It's a great thing!

We should be happy for him!

He became the emperor and left Chang Liu!

I won't see him again!

We can't do anything about that. He has an important responsibility.

How about if we want to see him, we'll go to the palace and see if we can see him, okay?

How would it be as easy as you say?

Qing Shui, look! This is the Temple Jade that Brother Lang gave me!

He said that it could be some sort of token.

When we want to see him, if we take this over then we can definitely see him!

Really?

Really!

Then from now on if we don't have anything to do, you have to go down the mountain with me to see him.

Okay! I promise!

However, now that you mention it,

Isn't Brother Lang the second prince? How did he become the emperor?

That doesn't matter.

Anyway, it's something for us to be happy about!

Right?

That isn't the only news from the palace! There is another good news!

Mother, Daddy really did become the Scholar Champion!

Really? That's great!

Mother will soon become the wife of the Scholar Champion! Daddy will come marry Mother really soon!

Tang Bao, you cannot talk nonsense like that.

Qing Shui, you don't have to worry about this.

From now on, Dongfang will be there to aid Brother Lang.

You two are being too shameless!

You might as well just go down the mountain and get married. Why stay here and cultivate immortality?

Don't ruin our Chang Liu's reputation!

Man Tian!

Ni Man Tian, don't talk nonsense!

Right now Qian Gu is higher in rank than you!

You don't even greet your Senior Uncle?

I forgot, I should call you Little Senior Uncle right?

I don't need it.

Fine then. I think you should have learned much from Honorable Superior.

Let's have a competition!

Don't touch her!

Qian Gu hasn't even fully healed from the injury you gave her!

She still has an internal injury! If you have the ability, come at me!

Based on you? You don't have that right!

Man Tian! Qing Shui, don't fight!

Qing Shui!

Abstain Thoughts!

Tang Bao!
