Beautiful Guangzhou,

we're coming now.

Full speed here.

Yes, sir!

In the mid to late Qing dynasty,

the empire began to fall as the emperor got weak.

The British

hooked their claws into Guangzhou.

Twenty-one ships

loaded with guns and cannons

were approaching to Guangzhou

at full speed.

Go!

Go!

[Zhou's Grocery Store]

Go!

Go!

Move!

Go! Go!

Go!

GO!

Go!

Where is he?

Go!

The city of Guangzhou,

one of the most important treaty ports of the Qing dynasty,

is on the very edge of the Pearl River,

which made it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

But now,

the British and the Japanese assassins consort with each other.

They killed four officials in Guangzhou one after another.

They kidnapped Su Zhiyao, the provincial governor of Guangzhou,

just to take the secret keys

that could unlock the last line

of the sea defense that had been guarding Guangzhou.

IIn Guangzhou, the strong tide is surging

beneath the seemingly calm surface.

Guangzhou’s fate

is at stake.

[Age of The Legend]

[Lian’s Mansion]

[Foresight and Sagacity]

Jinru,

we’ve been serving our country together for decades.

Our empire is now facing a sour adversity.

We need to do everything in our power to realize the full benefits of our country,

even it may cost our lives.

Sir,

I’ll remember your words today by heart

till the end of my life.

Who’s there?

Tasting the tea on a rainy night.

Seems you’re in the mood, Your Excellency.

Shame on you.

You don’t even dare to show your true face.

Only my friends and the dead

can see my face.

I’m just wondering…

Do you want to be my friend,

or the latter?

You took Su Zhiyao, right?

You’re his old friend.

So I guess

you must know what I’m looking for.

I just want to tell you that

no matter how hard you try

or how many plots you make,

it’s just a waste of time.

Your Excellency,

I’m afraid you have no idea what situation you’re facing now.

Do you really think that

you can stop us

with dozens of guards?

Aren’t you afraid that

I’d just kill you here?

Kill me.

There will still be others.

There are hundreds of thousands of people

in Guangzhou.

You and your filthy killers

can’t change anything

with several murders.

When you lot were driven away

from our country

like frightened animals,

I’d say something to you again.

When that day comes,

I suggest you just run away like a coward.

Tell me.

To whom did you give the key?

Someone I trust very much.

Follow the tracks

and keep me updated.

[Fair and Justice]

My lord.

My lord.

My lord.

Your father said

you shouldn’t drink this jar of wine

especially saved for you

until the day you achieve great success.

Have you prepared everything

I asked for?

Yes, my lord.

But your father has gone missing for days.

Are we still going to

hold a birthday ceremony for him?

Sure.

But your father…

I said we are going to do this.

[Good Virtue]

Dear ancesters,

I’m your ascendant, Su Can.

Please hear my prayer and let my father come home safely.

Father hasn’t been in good health.

He may not survive this.

Please,

make sure he come back safe and sound.

After all,

I haven’t fulfilled a son’s duty.

[Good Virtue]

Please,

hear my prayer.

Have you heard that?

There was a frightful slaughter

in Lian’s mansion yesterday.

Everybody knows.

Now people are gathering

at the gate of Lian’s mansion.

How many people

did they kill?

The murderer is still out there, right?

Right.

[Lian’s Mansion]

Master Huang.

Master Huang.

Commander Chen.

Lord Lian…

Was he killed by the same people

who kidnapped my father?

Judging by the guards’ wounds,

they must have been murdered by the same people.

But Lord Lian wasn’t murdered.

He committed suicide.

Maybe I’m here

for a reason.

Move away!

I think

there are more than three of us

who received the message.

Let’s talk in private.

All of us are here

because we’ve received a pigeon

from the Lian family

this morning.

But I guess we probably don’t know each other.

I’m Chen Tiezhi.

He’s Su Can,

the son of Lord Su.

And I think all of you know this guy already.

He’s Huang Qiying from Baozhilin.

You can call him Master Huang.

And he…

Well,

I’m Su Heihu.

By the way, Head Liang,

I’ve always wanted to join your martial guild.

Can you give me a chance?

Of course.

I’m Liang Kun.

And they are my friends

from our martial guild.

Lu Shao,

Zhang Qiuhan,

Mu Changsheng, and Wu Yi.

Nice to meet you all.

Save it, please.

My father’s still out there missing.

Let’s cut to the chase.

Please,

hand me the messages

carried by the pigeons you received.

Master Huang,

Commander Chen.

I’ve checked this.

Besides the sigil of the Lian family,

it also contains a mysterious sign.

I think…

[The keys are in your hands.]

I knew it.

Do you see something?

These are the characters from ancient times.

My father

used to study them with Lord Lian.

I can recognize some of them.

I thought there must be something

hiding behind these characters

when I first saw them.

Now I see

what Lord Lian was trying

to tell us.

What is it?

It says

the keys

[The keys are in your hands.]

are in our hands.

The keys…

What are the keys

exactly?

The fate of Guangzhou depends on them.

In recent years,

to protect our land from the intruders

from overseas,

the court built an artillery battery

of sea defense in secret.

It’s said that those cannons especially made

are deadly weapons.

And the keys

can unlock

this artillery battery.

I think

Lord Lian committed suicide

because he wanted to

protect Lord Su.

Right.

Only in this way

can Lord Su who knows the position of

the artillery battery

have a chance to live.

Lord Lian gave up his life

to send us this message to guard the keys.

So where are the keys?

The keys

should be in our hands already.

What?

[Fair and Justice]

Look.

Isn’t this the same character?

Yes.

Each of us

from the martial guild

has a plaque like this.

It’s getting interesting.

This is the key.

I’ve never seen it before.

Since the mysterious characters

match the plaques we have,

our priority now is to

collect the keys

separated in different places

and hide them in a safe place.

Alright.

Let’s find the keys

in our places

and meet together in Baozhilin.

[Baozhilin]

Wait.

[Baozhilin]

Please,

be careful.

We’ve found out that

the keys were hidden in the plaques

and sent to the nine members of the martial guild by Lian Jinru.

I’ve asked people to take care of it.

Plaques?

I thought you’d be smarter.

[Fair and Justice]

[Fair and Justice]

[Fair and Justice]

Su Can.

[Wang’s Stinky Tofu]

Amitabha.

My friend,

how are you feeling?

Master,

thanks for helping me.

You have a kind heart.

Please,

do me one last favor.

There’s something I need to deliver.

It’s more important than my life.

You have to help me

deliver this

to Baozhilin.

I will.

I hope

you can

see the sun of…

Of Guangzhou

for me.

I’ve looked around Baozhilin.

There’s no ones suspicious.

We are safe for now.

Lu Shao,

Zhang Qiuhan,

and Mu Changsheng are dead.

Wu Yi has gone missing.

We’ve only got

four keys now.

Now we…

Amitabha.

Excuse me,

is here

Baozhilin?

It's quite

hard to find.

Your Excellency,

the tea

is the symbol of courtesy.

I mean no harm.

Please,

let’s drink a cup of tea.

You like to talk about the tea ceremony.

I wonder if you

know that the history of tea ceremony in China

is even longer

than the whole history of Japan.

The Dao of tea

is the Dao of being a person.

Its color is light yellow.

It smells good.

It tastes sweet.

It is not sweet at first,

but it is sweet when being swallowed.

That is tea.

People drink tea

and the tea is just as people.

This tea

is putting the cart before the horse.

I can't drink it.

Mr. Su, why are you giving yourself such a hard time?

The result will be the same

whether you drink the tea

or say the words.

Smart people

should consider

the situation.

You are knowledgeable.

Please help us in the future.

We will need to bother you

in terms of Guangzhou City.

Even if you get the key,

you won't get Guangzhou City.

And don't even expect that

I'm gonna work with you.

Mr. Su,

don't be too confident.

Don't shoot yourself

in the foot

like Lian Jinru.

How is he?

Is he still alive?

How is he?

He is dead.

Amitabha.

My merciful Buddha

will pass over him.

By the way,

it was entrusted by him when he was alive.

Here you are.

From your accent,

I don't think you're local.

Which temple were you initiated into monkhood?

What is your name in religion?

My name in religion

is Jingshi.

I was initiated into monkhood in Shaolin Temple.

Three years ago, I traveled down the mountain

and now live in Wuran Temple.

You are Master Jingshi.

I am Huang Qiying.

I went up the mountain for medical treatment a few days ago.

I heard the abbot Yikong mention your noble virtues

and you created martial arts "Xiajiaquan".

I was hoping

to visit you sometime.

Sir,

it's very kind of you.

It's very kind of you.

You look

bad.

What's bothering you?

Amitabha.

I won't ask you

any more questions now that you have

something embarrassing to mention.

Excuse me.

Master Jingshi.

I have known Master Yikong for many years.

I know your character and kong fu,

but this thing

is related to the safety of the whole Guangzhou city.

I didn't mean anything else.

You just brought back

the key to coastal defense.

Nine of us were appointed to protect it,

and it was robbed by bad men.

Some of us

died on the way.

The immediate task

now is to

retrieve the lost key.

Tell me

how you are to retrieve it.

Master,

look.

This kingfisher has a good sense of smell.

I took it to the mountains to collect medicine when it was little.

Besides,

it was fed by herbal juice,

so its smell can be detected decades of miles away.

Just before the fight,

I intentionally dipped the

Nine-Dragon Key of Secrets in herbal juice.

If I release it,

it will lead us to the hiding place

of the Key of Secrets.

Maybe

we will know the person who

killed the officials

and kidnapped Mr. Su.

If I catch them,

I will kill them.

I will win if I kill two of them.

Amitabha.

Well, Master,

your kung fu is good.

Do you want to join us?

We can do it together.

Amitabha.

I see.

What you are to do

is critical.

But I am a monk.

I have to follow the rules.

I can't kill.

Take care.

Goodbye.

Master.

Master.

Mr. Huang,

can you borrow me your kingfisher?

Su Can,

be careful.

Rest assured.

I will be back

within the duration of a burning joss stick.

Look!

What are you doing?

[Tea]

When will the stuff that you

promised us arrive?

What about the stuff you promised me?

We have the governor

of Guangzhou city in our hands.

We have found four keys.

The rest

will be soon gathered.

Did I invite you to Guangzhou

for a scavenger hunt?

Find it

and destroy it.

Yes.

You are an attractive Japanese woman.

Mr. Mars,

the stuff we agreed...

The ship has arrived at the dock.

The rest is up to you.

Yes.

Is it too soon for us

to kill the British envoy?

We already have the stuff,

so he is of no use.

We should talk to Mr. Yu

for the rest.

Fuck.

I don't care whether

he is appointed by the British man.

Now that

we know the Japanese lair,

let's take back

Mr. Su

and the Nine-Dragon Key of Secrets.

They killed the British envoy.

Our priority now is

to find out what is on that ship.

Mr. Liang is right.

The enemy is strong and we are weak.

We'd better outsmart over this ship thing.

Because my father

is in prison,

and his life is in danger,

we need to act quickly.

Then what are we waiting for?

Let's investigate the ship separately.

Awful!

Wait, excuse me,

where is the dock?

Go away!

Go away! Go away!

You go this way.

The rest follow me.

This is Su's. You can't go in there.

This is Su's.

You can't go in there.

Don't go in there.

This is Su's.

Check carefully.

Raise your head.

Go away! Go away!

Go away!

[Wanted]

Monk,

why are you here?

I wanted to ask you as well.

Did you kill

the foreign envoy?

No.

Don't look at them.

The streets are full of officers and soldiers looking for you.

Wear this one.

Cover yourself.

I will escort you to Baozhilin.

Thank you.

Go.

Amitabha.

He is not here.

Let's check the front.

I think I can't go back

to Baozhilin.

Where can you go?

The Moonlight Lane.

Reporting for duty, sir!

There is no Liang Kun in the Liang's.

Reporting for duty, sir!

Boazhilin is empty.

Reporting for duty, sir!

There is no Su Can in Su's.

You have not found them, right?

Yes.

You can go now.

Yes.

Sir,

are we really

going to help the British people?

Not to mention my family,

the lives of hundreds

of thousands of people

in Guangzhou city are in their hands.

Are you going to make

me into someone like Lian Jinru,

who didn't stop until he died?

As a governor of a place,

I should protect my people.

What I'm doing right now

is just going with the flow.

Guangzhou city, since ancient times,

has been a place that people fight for.

The British want to occupy it.

The Japanese want to rob it.

But our government

gave it out.

Is this the Moonlight Lane you said?

Just follow me.

It is a quiet place.

Amitabha.

It is a sin.

Master,

please.

It is said that monks are merciful.

Master.

Please sleep with me to pass me.

Master.

Master.

Pass me.

Amitabha. It is a sin.

Mei,

he is just a monk.

Are you going to shorten his life?

It's just a western trick.

Master,

you need to practice your composure.

How is the

Moonlight Lane?

It is hard to say.

Everyone sees it differently.

Go away. Go away.

Mr. Su, thank you.

Thank you.

What?

Have you not succeeded yet?

I will make it soon.

I will make it soon.

Su Can.

Master Jingshi.

The streets are full of soldiers chasing me.

Fortunately, the master helped me.

We are the same.

Fuck.

These Japanese

killed a British envoy,

and they're trying to pin it on us.

How abominable!

Now it looks like

there's no way out of here.

Luckily, we were prepared.

Mr. Su.

Lane Master,

what do you mean by this?

You always know

what the Moonlight Lane is.

My Moonlight Lane

has three rules.

We don't do business with three kinds of people, including

the evil,

the poor

and the dying.

The money

you gave me before

has been returned.

Mr. Su,

please.

Lane Master,

are you asking me to leave?

Tell me

which kind of person I am.

You are giving me a hard time.

The government

is not the only one that you are against to.

Lane Master,

look.

Mr. Su is our friend.

Please make a compromise.

They can stay at my place.

Small miscellaneous artisan,

you get your nose in other people's business, don't you?

You are doing useless things all the time.

If you say one more word,

you,

you'll go with them.

Who dares?

In the Moonlight Lane,

What I like most is the work

of small miscellaneous artisan.

If he leaves,

I won't come again.

Qi,

that's enough of a buzz.

Why the hell are you involved in?

What I like most in my life

is to join in.

Small miscellaneous artisan,

have you finished what

I want?

Yes,

I will give it to you tonight.

I have helped you to keep them,

so I won't pay you.

OK.

I have decided to

keep these people.

Qi,

you are

giving me a hard time.

I said I decided to keep them.

Don't you agree with me?

Now that Qi

said so,

you can stay here

tonight.

But Qi,

I have to say that

if they won't leave tomorrow,

don't blame me for being rude.

What are you looking at?

Go away.

Thank you.

I am Su Can.

I know you.

You are the only son of the Su's.

You were wandering around

and everyone knows you in Guangzhou city.

But I was not helping you.

If you want to thank,

thank Mr. Huang.

Mr. Huang,

do you remember me?

You healed

my scar on the face before.

Mr. Li,

thank you.

Qi,

it turns out that you know each other before.

I will return

the favor.

Thanks to Mr. Huang,

nothing could

hide my pretty face now.

You are a man

and you are so narcissistic.

You are so disgusting!

Be perfect in everything.

You,

you look like this...

and you are dressed like this...

Enough.

We are different

and we don't have to talk too much.

I have a good room there,

you...

can't stay at my place.

Or,

let them stay at your home?

OK.

You're welcome.

My home is just up there.

Have a good rest.

Take care of them.

Don't worry.

Mr. Huang.

Mr. Li.

If you have anything, call me.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Abnormal man.

Qi is always mysterious.

It is said that he

is the son of a successful businessman in the capital,

and because of changes in the home,

he came to Guangzhou. It is a long story.

You must be hungry.

My house is just up the road.

Let's go. I will cook you noodles.

Let's go.

Qi likes the

small stuffs I make.

That is Liu.

Liu,

what's the matter?

You are crying.

Why are you crying?

Where is your brother?

My brother...

My brother...

What happened?

It's all my fault.

My brother wouldn't be dead

if I wasn't wanting to eat some foreign canned food.

Foreign canned food?

Where did your brother die?

The dock.

Su,

it's dangerous.

How could you make such a move?

What is this?

Gun.

Su,

where is this from?

It's from the British merchant ships docked at the docks.

In terms of the protection of the ship,

There are lots of boxes

like this.

The case of the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets

is much more complex than we thought.

With a ship of firelocks and explosives,

the British want to blow up Guangzhou?

If what you said is true,

the Japanese killed the British Ambassador,

then this ship of

firelocks and explosives

have belonged to the Japanese.

No matter who is our enemy,

we're in big trouble.

It seems

we have to destroy the goods in the ships as soon as possible.

It's hard.

The pier is easy to hold but hard to attack.

It's right.

The pier is under martial law.

Workers have been laid off.

Soldiers and the Japanese are defending it.

Even if we can get close to the ships,

it's hard to get out safely.

What should we do?

We can't even get close to the ships,

how is it possible to destroy the goods?

Fly past?

I suggest we fly past.

Right.

Fly past.

What?

What's going on, Master Huang?

They began to unload.

We've had few trial flights on the roc flying suit,

I'm a little worried.

Over there.

Here he is.

Throw the phosphorous bottles.

Retreat!

Heihu!

Over here.

Hurry up!

Su Can!

Su Can!

Su Can!

-Su Can!
-Su Can!

Mr. Su,

I've been looking forward to see you.

I didn't expect you're in such a mess.

Today,

I lit a ship,

so I've made myself

a little disheveled.

But it's fun.

In the future,

if there are fun things like this again,

remember to inform me in advance.

Well,

I almost forgot

you killed the British Ambassador.

Then nobody will

send you ships.

I've already heard that Mr. Su is arbitrary.

But it's a misfortune for Lord Su.

Father.

You killed people,

captured my father,

and grabbed four keys of secrets,

so what?

If you can't get the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets,

everything is in vain.

Well, it depends on you.

Which one do you think is more important,

the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets,

or Lord Su?

I don't have the keys with me.

I'm not the boss.

You're clever, Mr. Su.

I think you know what to do.

If I give you the keys of secrets,

will you let go of my father?

Su Can,

Nine Dragon Forts

are the last line of defense

to protect Guangzhou.

It's related to people's safety in Guangzhou.

If you give them the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets

and push Guangzhou

and the Qing Dynasty into an abyss of misery,

I won't agree.

Father,

I want the peace of the Qing Dynasty,

but I want your safety more.

Do you think they will let me go

if you give them the keys of secrets?

They want me to

be a puppet.

Su Can,

it's...

Lord Su is tired,

so take him to have a rest.

Father,

trust me,

I'll help you out.

Why should I trust you?

Do you have any other choices, Mr. Su?

I will keep Lord Su for only one hour.

Please keep your word, Mr. Su.

I'm waiting for you here.

The ship is approaching.

If Su Can doesn't give us the keys of secrets,

we will be in a passive position.

Since we know where they hide,

they can't escape from us.

Now that

the Japanese want to utilize Lord Su,

they won't let go of him easily.

If they go back on their promise,

what should we do?

I can't think much now.

I have to give it a try.

Su Can,

Lord Lian died and entrusted us with it.

Lord Su is as important as the keys of secrets.

Stop it.

I know

what I'm doing.

Do you really know what you're doing?

Vice Commissioner Tan,

Guardian Zhou,

why are you here?

Since we met Mr. Su several days ago,

we've specifically focused on your movements.

We found a great secret,

so we came to tell you risking our lives.

The Guangzhou warriors killed the British Ambassador?

Are you kidding me?

What are you talking about, Commander-in-chief?

We're allies.

I've promised to the British,

but I haven't allied with you, the Japanese.

The British warships will arrive in Guangzhou tomorrow morning.

When they see the British Ambassador

having been killed in your territory,

don't you think you seem complicit in this?

Or it's okay if you want to defend the city against them

with your soldiers.

But you've revealed

the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets

related to secret coastal defense in Guangzhou,

You've set up the Guangzhou warriors

by saying they killed the British Ambassador.

So I'm wondering when the war ends,

if you can protect you and your family.

Commander Yu,

we're allies.

What the British promised to you,

the Japanese

will satisfy you, too.

Japan

is such a small country.

Without the help of the British,

how can you occupy Guangzhou?

Besides,

the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets in your hand

can't open Nine Dragon Forts at all,

and you can't stop the British warships.

Do you have any other options

but to rely on me?

Commander-in-chief has betrayed

and he's ordered to

withdraw all the coastal defense soldiers.

Tomorrow the city gate

won't be opened

until the British warships arrive.

The Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets are so important

that you can't give them to the Japanese.

Vice Commissioner Tan,

if you were me,

would you have given up your father?

Mr. Su,

I know you're in a difficult position,

but please take the whole situation into consideration

before making the decision.

It's right and proper for a son to save his father.

I think

he is right.

Moreover,

it's his family matter,

so you'd better not interfere.

Go ahead.

I'll help you stop them.

Gentlemen,

Su Can has decided to

save Lord Su alone.

So please let him go.

We'll do our best to protect Guangzhou

and take our responsibilities.

You're an honest man, Mr. Su.

Where is my father?

Excellency Su,

your son comes to exchange you with the keys of secrets.

It seems your son

is wiser than you.

Now you can

give us the keys of secrets?

What are you doing, Mr. Su?

I know your conspiracy.

Let go of my father,

otherwise,

I'd like to blow up the keys of secrets

rather than give them to you.

Su Can,

you're such a fool.

It's impossible for them to let us go.

Let go of my father.

You eat your words!

I said let go,

but I didn't say let whom go.

Mr. Su,

I'm an honest person too.

There's no problem

that you exchange Lord Su with the keys of secrets.

But you forgot

you destroyed my ships.

Everything has its price.

Now I offer you an option.

You

and Lord Su,

choose one to leave here.

Bullyshit.

I'll see who dare to stop me.

Kneel!

Kneel!

They've killed our men

and occupied our land.

Now

they're intending to occupy Guangzhou.

Why are you so naive

to trust them?

Our ancestors for five generations

have been loyal to our motherland.

We've been faithful to the Emperor,

and responsible for people.

How dare you use the lifeblood

to exchange my life?

How can I face myself in the future?

Father.

Day and night,

start and end,

weal and woes.

Never think of

hurting anyone.

For what is good for our country

we must do everything to achieve it.

Things can escape from responsibilities,

but not us.

When there's no place to hide

and we're going to die,

don't worry or complain.

We should face death with good grace.

Do you remember?

You fool.

Father.

Calm down, Mr. Su.

You've seen it.

I had planned to let Lord Su go,

but he

committed suicide.

You will pay for what you've done.

Fine.

It's good for Mr. Su

to witness

our occupation of Guangzhou.

Let's go.

I almost forgot.

This is for you.

Father.

Father!

Father…

Father.

Day and night,

start and end,

weal and woes.

Never think of

hurting anyone.

For what is good for our country

we must try everything to achieve it.

Things can escape from responsibilities,

but not us.

When there's no place to hide,

and we're going to die,

don't worry or complain.

We should face death with good grace.

Do you remember?

You fool.

[Immortal Grace of Ancestors]

Amitabha.

[Immortal Grace of Ancestors]

Su Can,

are you okay?

What happened?

Su Can!

It's a long story.

Back then,

Lord Zhen and other officiers were killed

and Lord Su disappeared.

We had no idea

who did these

and where they were.

Commander Yu asked for sick leave.

The urgent letter sent to the capital

didn't get any reply.

What made Lord Lian most anxious was that

the real Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets

was in the crutch

which disappeared with Lord Su.

Without any assistance,

Lord Lian took out

the copied Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets.

He asked me to find

Su Can,

Master Huang,

Heihu,

Head Liang,

and members of martial guild

Wu Yi,

Lu Shao,

Zhang Qiuhan,

and Mu Changsheng,

the nine warriors.

We plotted

the operation

to use the fake keys of secrets

to draw out the enemies.

Guys,

it's of great importance.

Success or failure hinges on this action.

I hope you can

[Look Far Ahead and Aim High]

do your best

to save Lord Su

and find out

the real Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets.

My Excellency, it's not proper.

We can't ask you to take the risk

to be a lure.

Death

may be lighter than a feather,

or weightier than Mount Taishan.

Only my death

can win their trust.

Guys,

I entrust

the safety of Guangzhou

to you.

The homing pigeon sent by Lord Lian when he died

made the ten of us

being exposed to the enemy's surveillance.

We spread the news on purpose

that we got the keys of secrets,

so that the enemies believed it.

They fell into our trap

without knowing it.

Later,

we moved carefully every step on the way

and stuck to the plan.

Well,

is it your prior arrangement

to ask Master Huang to find out Ninja

with a bird?

Yes, it is.

The lost keys of secrets

would definitely come back to the enemies.

So sending the kingfisher out

would help us track and locate them.

So

we could find Lord Su

and retake the real Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets.

Don't you fear that

Ninja would take all keys of secrets?

Not at all.

There's not a key of secrets

behind the plaque in my house.

We've hidden it in advance.

So

the enemies can't find at least one key of secrets

no matter what.

Without the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets,

they can't know

the location of Nine Dragon Forts,

let alone destroying it.

It's our bargaining chip.

We can use

Su Can's special identity

to exchange Lord Su

with the fake keys of secrets.

But later

Mr. Su learnt that

the British ships arrived at the pier,

so we paused the plan

and prepared to find out the goods in the ships

before saving Lord Su.

But we didn't expect that

the Japanese wanted more.

They framed us

with the death of the British Ambassador.

So we had to hide

in our shelter,

the Moonlight Lane.

Well,

I'm confused.

The ship of firelocks and explosives was in your expectation?

No, out of our expectation.

But thanks to Su Can,

who found it,

Otherwise, the consequences would be

unimaginable.

We've designed

to make Su Can got captured,

in order to talk with them in person

and ask them to put forward the deal

so that they wouldn't doubt us.

Amitabha.

For a fake key of secrets,

why did Wu Yi risk his life?

For the Qing Dynasty,

for people in Guangzhou.

In addition to Lord Lian,

to carry out the plan,

my men in martial guild

are all willing to follow you

and risk our lives.

Why not tell us the truth early?

On the one hand,

although you're subordinate to Lord Zhen,

we're not sure about your relation

with Commander-in-chief.

We had doubts

when you came to us suddenly.

On the other hand,

for a secret action like this,

the fewer people know,

the better for us,

and the better for the success.

It's safer

for you too.

What about Lord Su?

Lord Su knew

the Japanese wouldn't let him go.

In order to help us get the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets,

he committed suicide in front of Su Can.

You can imagine

how painful Mr. Su is.

Well,

gentlemen,

what's your

next plan?

Thousands of guns roar at the same time.

Nothing abnormal.

Looks like Japanese people are successful.

In two hours,

the British warships

will arrive in Guangzhou.

You failed.

Commander Yu,

you turned against us so fast.

You Japanese should learn

to judge the situation.

Without the Nine-Dragon Keys of Secrets,

You can't win for sure.

You're defying me now.

Do you wanna die?

Are you threatening me?

Threaten the top official

in Guangzhou…

Will my death

do any good to you?

I…

I can assure you that

I won't dispatch the army.

You can take your people

to look for the real Nine-dragon Keys of Secrets.

Maybe you can stop those British,

or even…

Since nobody notices you,

go back to Japan.

Perhaps they've already heard about something.

Just as what I said!

It's inappropriate

to look for reinforcements here.

Why are you looking at me?

This is a place to hide from disasters and catastrophes.

I once thought the Moonlight Lane was filled

with righteous and courageous people.

But I didn't expect

that you all turn out to be cowards.

Sir!

It's inappropriate

for you to say so.

Our country is on the brink of destruction.

What's the meaning of staying here?

Meaning?

Mr. Su,

what's the meaning

of living?

We have our own ways of living.

About this matter,

I can't help you.

Lane Master!

Mr. Su,

don't push me!

Please go back.

I'm gonna to lock my door.

If locked,

this door will not open again.

If you wish,

you can stay.

No country, no home.

Stay here to be as good as dead?

I know you hate the heavy taxes imposed by the imperial court,

and the unfair rules.

You also hate that you could do nothing about it,

nothing to save it!

But, Guangzhou is ours!

If it's possessed by those foreigners,

no matter how thick your walls are,

they still can't resist artilleries.

I'll ask once again.

Does anyone want to go with me?

For what is good for our country,

we'll sacrifice everything to achieve it.

Today,

we must succeed.

Failure is not allowed!

I,

never fail.

Bottoms up!

[South Gate]

Amitabha.

Enemies are approaching!

Report it!

Move!

Take the keys of secrets

to launch the Nine-dragon Batteries.

No!

I'll avenge my father's death.

Su Can!

I am the soldier,

and I'm in charge of guarding the gate!

Go!

Go!

Huang Chengke!

Go!

Go!

British warships are sailing at 30 knots!

20 nautical miles away from Guangzhou!

They're expected to enter

the artillery range 30 minutes later.

Take your Nine-dragon keys of secrets

to your batteries.

Here you are.

Go!

This way!

Go!

You go that way.

Let's go!

Come to help!

Hurry up!

Go! Hold the artilleries!

Quickly!

What on earth is going on?

Hold on!

British warships are sailing at 30 knots!

10 nautical miles away from the shore!

There must be other settings!

If the artilleries fall back,

we can never push them ahead again!

You can't launch!

Do something!

The artilleries only cover

a fixed range of nautical miles.

If we let them get too close to the shore,

we'll enter

the artillery range of British warships!

Then, even if we launch the Nine-dragon Batteries,

Guangzhou will still be under flames of war!

[Country Lives Peaceful Means Peaceful]

[Country Lives Peaceful Means Peaceful]

Huang Chengke!

Go to the entrance with me!

Hold on!

Guys, hang in there!

Hold on!

[Country Lives Peaceful Means Peaceful]

Huang Chengke!

What's wrong?

These two sentences are not right.

They're not in the correct order!

Well…

What order?

What order?

A peaceful country

means peaceful lives.

A peaceful country

means peaceful lives.

Quickly!

I'm unable to hold on any longer!

Done!

It's in order!

Why there's no response?

Where's the problem?

A peaceful country

means peaceful lives.

That's right!

Su Can!

Day and night,

start and end,

weal and woes.

Never think of hurting

anyone.

For what is good for our country,

we'll sacrifice everything to achieve it.

Things are avoidable,

but I am inevitable.

When there's no place to hide,

and death is so close,

we'd drop all thoughts

and confront death at ease.

Have you remembered it?

Brat! (Upside-down "Zi" in Chinese)

Upside-down "Zi"!

It moved!

It moved!

Pals!

It moved!

Go!

British warships are sailing at 30 knots!

1 nautical mile away from the shore!

They've entered the artillery range!

They've entered the artillery range!

Ready!

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!

Report!

The three warships have been sunk!

It's too far. We can't reach the target.

Move out!

Turn left!

The Japanese plan was not successful at all!

Move back!

Yes, sir!

They retreated!

Those jerks retreated!

They've moved back!

The British warships retreated!

They retreated!

They've gone back!

They retreated…

They retreated!

Do you think you have won

after you fought off the British?

Guangzhou will be ours sooner or later.

It's worth dying here

today.

Good.

I'll fulfill your wish.

Leave her to me!

Go!

In one fell swoop,

this female Ninjia was beheaded!

The British and Japanese conspiracy to occupy Guangzhou

was broken by these ten heroes.

They were then called

Ten Tigers of Guangdong.
