[Hello There]

[Episode 2]

[Qinglong Inn]

Sir, please come in.

This way, please.

Okay.

This way.

Brother,

since you came back yesterday,

you've taken shower at least three times.

Did you fall into a cesspool?

I thought food could shut you up.

Pick them up.

No.

Don't think you can threaten me with that whip.

I'm just too hungry.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be so obedient

even if you beat me up.

You took me down the mountain

but went to have fun at night alone.

Have you taken me

as your brother or not?

You and I are on the verge of insanity after practicing the skills in the Book of Xincan.

Only the Book of Yueque which has the same origin as it

can help us retain sanity.

Ruoyu found that the Tang Sect's martial arts skills

are similar to those in the Book of Yueque.

I sneaked into the Tang Sect last night.

But someone got in my way

and I found nothing.

What a surprise.

That guy must be very capable.

I'd like to meet him.

Hi, there. We meet again.

You ugly monster.

I didn't go after you

but you came to me yourself.

You...

I...

Did you just call me ugly?

You're the ugliest one here!

So you're not only ugly

but also blind!

I was merciful the other day.

I won't go easy one you this time.

Wait.

Brother, I'm protecting myself.

You won't tie me up, will you?

Don't draw blood.

OK.

I have 100 ways

to kill people without drawing blood.

How dare you look down on me?

Brothers, teach him a hard lesson.

Young lad,

you'd better know the score here.

Now that you're in Shu,

you should go by the rules of Shu.

You should thank God

that you caught my eye.

What are you doing?

Dirty.

Do you hear that?

Your brother should be a warning to you.

So you'd better play nice.

Otherwise...

Brother.

How is that? Neat, right?

Now it's neat.

You noticed trivial details like those?

Your obsession with neatness is incurable.

You...

What?

Who allowed you to sit next to my brother?

Get out!

Fine. I'll go.

It's no big deal.

Where are my sugar cakes?

You ugly monster.

How dare you eat my cakes?

Stop!

Sorry. Sorry.

I'm sorry. Don't hit me.

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Don't hit me.

Sparing your enemy's face is basic courtesy.

Don't you know the rules of fights?

Please, don't notice me.

Stop.

Sir, please spare my life.

I didn't mean to pick a fight.

I just wanted to see whether you're well-trained.

Yeah.

The Tang Sect is recruiting martial arts masters

as senior guards.

I noticed that both of you were very capable,

so I came to invite you

to be guards in the Tang Sect.

You're from the Tang Sect?

Is he…

Is he intimidated by my background?

Yeah. The Tang Sect is the greatest sect in Shu.

I am the famous young mistress of the Tang Sect,

Tang Buyan.

I'm here

to test your skills.

Looks like you're not interested.

Then I'll take my leave.

No need to walk me out.

I didn't let you go.

Sir, please spare my life. Don't kill me.

What I said is true.

I swear.

I agree.

[The Light of Shu]

[Tang Sect]

This is the Rainfall Yard.

Young Mistress.

That tree...

You have no idea how rare it is.

It only grows one inch in ten years.

Each inch of it is worth a whole city.

Besides…

Nobody cares about those stones and trees.

I'm hungry. Do you have anything delicious?

Give it to me.

Zhuang. Ba.

Take him to the kitchen.

There are a lot of delicious foods there.

Yes, Boss.

Sir, this way, please.

Guard Han, let's go in.

Guard Han, since you've become one of us,

you must follow the rules of the Tang Sect.

You should do what I say.

Otherwise, I can kick you out

just like I can invite you in.

Do you hear me?

Okay.

Yan.

Senior sister.

I heard you brought someone back.

Senior sister.

This is the young man I told you about.

I'm Li Han. My brother is Li Yan.

Yan said that you and your brother are highly skilled in martial arts.

Why are you willing to be guards here?

We passed this place and ran out of money.

Young Mistress earnestly invited us to work here,

so we didn't refuse.

But...

Senior sister.

Fine. Since that's the case,

go to Yan's house and get some rest.

Thank you, senior sister.

Let's go. I'll take you to your room.

This way.

Check their background carefully.

Yes, senior sister.

Li Han is in good shape.

I have to say,

he's not a bad match for me.

It worked so quickly?

No matter how capable you are,

once I use the smoke to knock you out,

you're fish in the barrel.

Breaking in when I'm having a bath

is allowed by the rules of the Tang Sect?

No.

Guard Han, you got me wrong.

I came here to sign the contract with you.

[Contract]

Next time,

please knock on the door before entering.

Of course. I will.

It's late. Please leave.

You're still of use to me,

or I would…

Guard Han, I forgot to remind you of this.

You need to get up early tomorrow for a qualification test.

Okay.

I'll be easy on you tonight.

You'll have a hard day tomorrow.

[Invincible]

The first test is a balance test.

You need to turn around ten times

and walk on the stakes

to get five wooden words and come back.

[Young Mistress, a fighter never to be defeated.]

You need to finish it before the joss stick burns out.

[Young Mistress, a fighter never to be defeated.]

That's it?

Let's begin.

[Young Mistress, a fighter never to be defeated.]

[Invincible]

[Mistress]

Young Mistress, a defeated fighter.

Exactly.

You...

Next test.

There's another test?

[The Second Test]

[Reaction Test]

Hit him!

Take this!

We learned our lesson in the first two tests.

This time,

we spent lots of money

making a series of traps.

No matter how skilled they are,

they can't get through them unscathed.

Save that ugly monster?

Why would I save her?

I'm not interested.

It's okay. Li Han is our main target this time.

[The Third Test: Rescue Drill]

Well…

The trigger is broken?

I go check it out.

It's not broken.

Zhuang, Ba, help me!

[Finish Line]

[Help me. Young Mistress. Finish Line.]

Stop!

Stop!

We planned to set them up so I could do the blood tests.

But who was set up in the end?

Who?

We didn't expect you to hit the trigger.

Say it again.

Li Han must have done this to you deliberately.

Boss, think about it.

We saw him step on the trigger.

Right?

Why did nothing happen to him?

How was that possible?

Yeah.

I think Li Han

must have eavesdropped on our plan.

That's why he could use our trap against us.

So in your opinion,

Li Han

is perhaps on the roof right now

eavesdropping on us?

He doesn't have to be on the roof.

He could poke a hole in the window paper.

Enough.

You've read too many novels.

Luckily,

we'll have a welcome dinner tonight.

We have to succeed this time.

I won't take any failure. Understand?

Loud and clear. Boss, you drink like a fish.

They can't beat you no matter how well-trained they are.

Get them drunk during the welcome dinner.

Yes.

Then you can do whatever you want.

What?

Tang Buyan wants to get us drunk?

Why is that ugly monster so vicious?

I'm going to kill her now.

Wait.

She is the young mistress of the Tang Sect.

Maybe she knows where the Book of Yueque is.

We can make use of her plan

to elicit the information we need.

But you get drunk so easily.

How are you going to drink her under the table?

Just swap the wine with water.

[Tang Sect]

Boss, everything is ready.

Guard Han, Guard Yan,

this is the welcome dinner I prepared for you.

Help yourself. Be my guest.

At such an important moment,

we need to have a drink.

Zhuang, serve the wine.

Guard Han, look.

This is fruit wine.

It's refreshing and sweet.

This is yellow wine.

It has a rich and nice flavor.

These are all famous local wines.

Which one do you like? Pick one.

This one.

Ha, he picked the strongest one.

Looks like you have a high tolerance, Guard Han.

I can't drink much.

So I'll drink the fruit wine.

Here.

I can help myself.

Here is a toast to our new members of the Tang Sect.

Let's go on a spree tonight.

Come. He wouldn't drink. Let us drink.

Guard Han, sorry for offending you before.

I'd like to propose a toast to you again.

He holds his liquor better than I do.

I've heard a lot about the Tang Sect.

Everyone says you have the best martial arts here.

May I have the honor to see it today?

The martial arts of the Tang Sect

are the best in the martial arts world.

Back then, compared with us,

other martial arts sects like Wudang,

Shaolin, E'mei, and Qingcheng

were nothing.

Unfortunately,

after my ancestors retreated into seclusion,

they made the rule

that we can't show our unique martial skills

in front of outsiders.

Otherwise,

I would've been able to defeat you.

Then what's the book you use for guidance?

The book we use for guidance

is a secret.

You ugly monster!

But I can tell you one thing.

The book's name

has three words.

Three words?

Which three words?

Secret.

I'll go get some fresh air.

Okay.

Great.

One guy at a time. After I give your brother the test,

it's your turn.

Guard Han, you've barely eaten anything.

Try these dishes.

I'm not hungry.

Even so, try them.

You can't drink on an empty stomach.

Here.

What is this?

Drunken crab, drunken shrimp, drunken Pepper chicken,

steamed clams with wine, brewed rice balls with wine.

They are all famous dishes in Shu.

They all

have wine in them?

Yeah. Wine is the theme of this dinner.
