The Journey of Chongzi Adapted from "The Journey of Chongzi" by Shu Ke

Episode 2

Prince, are you okay?

What a strong evil breath.

I've only seen this kind of evil breath on one person.

Go find out her origin.

Why does she have evil breath with her?

She is from Weiyang County, Cangzhou,

and her surname is Chong.

Her parents died when she was very young.

She has been begging along the street since then.

This time, she traveled thousands of miles to run for the election.

No problem with her background.

Even so,

we can't take risks.

She has potential.

What a pity.

Not at all.

Nanhua never lacks good disciples.

Looks like we passed.

Immortals.

Sage Tianji is right at Liuhe Hall.

No worries.

Listen to me.

I am Mu Yu, the current first disciple of Nanhua.

- Senior Mu. - Senior Mu.

Senior Mu looks so young.

Each of you may become a new disciple of the Nanhua Sect,

and my junior fellow apprentice.

I will take you to Liuhe Hall

to visit Sage Tianji and Councilor Sage.

Keep quiet.

Only when the two sages give a clear indication

can you step forward and answer.

Understand?

- Yes. - Yes.

Senior Mu, after we enter Nanhua,

do we have to kowtow everywhere?

What an ignorant and shallow country woman.

The rules of the Immortal World are different from those of the Mortal World.

You can learn slowly later.

As long as you show sincerity,

sages will naturally feel your genuineness.

Thank you, Senior Mu.

Please lead the way.

Senior Mu.

Would you accept apprentices?

After Sage Tianji

and Councilor Sage finish accepting apprentices,

I will choose one of you as my apprentice.

It'll be an honor to be an apprentice of the first disciple.

[Liuhe Hall]

We all know your performance just now.

Great.

Come here.

Qin Ke of Chenzhou,

greetings to Sage Tianji and Councilor Sage.

Do you have something to show me?

No.

Good boy.

Would you like to be my disciple?

Yes.

I am now the Sage Tianji of Nanhua Sword Clan.

I'm in charge of Yuchen Peak of Nanhua.

Since you have become my disciple,

you are the 365th generation disciple of Nanhua.

From now on,

you must abide by the rules, respect your masters and seniors,

act openly and aboveboard,

and take Nanhua as the top priority.

If you do something that insults the Immortal World in the future,

I will not let you go.

Understand?

I will keep your teachings in mind.

Good, stand up.

Thank you, Master.

Congratulations, Prince.

There is no prince in Nanhua.

My bad. Please don't blame me.

Are you the Ninth Princess?

Yes.

Before my departure, my father told me that

the Immortal World is not like the Mortal World,

and that I could never be arrogant

in front of Sage Tianji and Councilor Sage.

I am sorry for being rude just now.

The practice in the Immortal World is hard.

Have you made up your mind?

Yes, I have.

Now that you are the supremacy of the Mortal World,

I can not but

follow the providence.

That being the case, who do you want to be a disciple of?

It's up to you, sir.

Councilor Sage, what do you think?

I need a female disciple.

Just be my disciple.

Greetings to Master.

Stand up.

Thank you, Master.

Master, if my father knew that I became your disciple,

he would definitely entertain all parties to celebrate.

Sima Miaoyuan.

The Nanhua Sect has guarded the Tongtian Portal for generations.

All of Nanhua's disciples take protecting all beings

and killing demons as their duty.

Bear this in mind.

If you dare to violate the rules in the future,

you will be punished severely.

Yes, sir.

Although you have different qualifications,

you can make up for lack of natural talent by hard work.

（As long as you practice diligently in the future, ）

（you will definitely not be worse than others.）

Go and wait outside the hall.

（The other senior disciples of Nanhua）

（will also accept disciples.）

（You can be their disciples.）

- Yes, Sage Tianji. - Yes, Sage Tianji.

Hold on.

That girl.

You should stay.

Nanhua cannot accept you as an apprentice.

Mu Yu.

Send her down the mountain quickly.

Hasn't she been acting pretty well?

Why sending her away?

Did she offend anyone?

Why?

Didn't the sage say that

diligent work could make up for something?

Although I don't know anyone powerful,

I made it up the mountain by myself,

and I also helped others.

Why not accept me?

If you cultivate, you will be a disaster in the future.

What?

A disaster?

I never thought of harming anyone.

How could I do so?

Enough.

Nanhua can't keep you here.

Leave now.

Why?

I did nothing wrong.

Didn't you say that I can go up the mountain for mentorship?

It's not fair.

I'm obviously doing better than them all.

Not only did you refuse to accept me, but you even scolded me.

You are all jerk sages.

Blind sages.

How dare you!

There are no immortals in this world.

Even if there are,

they are deaf, blind, bloodless and fleshless.

It's her.

No wonder she is so familiar.

Sir, calm down.

- Actually, she... - Stop.

Don't interrupt your elders.

Mu Yu.

What are you waiting for? Take her down the mountain.

I didn't expect Nanhua's sages to despise me too.

Since the Immortal World can't keep me,

there will be another place where I can stay.

I don't believe that there is no room for me in this world.

What did you say?

This girl is deeply obsessed.

It's better to stop her idea of cultivating as soon as possible.

I said that you are a blind sage!

Councilor.

I want you.

Yinfan.

What are you...

Councilor, she's loose-lipped.

She really shouldn't have offended you.

But please forgive her disrespect for the sake of her being

my future disciple.

Future disciple?

Make it clear.

Who will be your disciple?

It's her.

Silly girl.

Sage Chonghua has said that.

Why don't you agree?

Would you like to be my disciple?

Mr. Benefactor.

Call me Master.

Master.

Yinfan.

She is brave, forthright and ingenious.

I love that.

Although she has evil breath with her,

on the way up the mountain,

I never saw her have any harmful intentions.

Unfounded speculation about others

only proves one's own malice.

The Immortal World has always adhered to the principle of not doing any evil deeds.

Right?

Councilor.

Recently, the Demon World has become more and more rampant.

If something happens to this girl running around,

it will be our fault instead.

But I think we can trust Yinfan.

As long as he is here, it is okay

for this girl to stay in Nanhua.

Okay.

Then let her be my disciple.

I will teach her by myself.

Sage Chonghua has said to take me as his disciple.

How could you change that?

Besides, I only recognize him as my master,

even if others kneel down and beg me, I am not willing.

You!

Look.

She is completely unruly.

As Nanhua's Councilor Sage, I was taken so slightly by her.

It seems that she will also be undisciplined in the future.

Never mind.

It fits me.

From now on, she is my only apprentice.

Yinfan.

Councilor, councilor.

You have taken Sima Miaoyuan as disciple.

It would be more appropriate for Yinfan to accept her as his disciple.

Then it depends on Sage Tianji.

Why don't you formally acknowledge me as your master?

What's your name?

My parents died when I was young,

and they haven't had time to give me a name.

I only know that my surname is Chong.

Everyone calls me Chongzi.

Chongzi.

Chong Zi.

The wind blows the peonies, and the rain lingers.

What an elegant name.

Chonghua Palace, Zizhu Peak.

We are destined.

From now on, you will be named Chong Zi.

What do you think?

Chongzi.

Chong Zi.

They sound like the same thing.

But after you change it,

it seems to be different immediately.

You are so great, Master. Thank you.

My name will be Chong Zi from now on.

My name is Luo Yinfan.

Or you can call me Chonghua.

After you become my disciple, you must abide by the rules,

take the common people in the world as your concern,

and refrain from doing anything against it.

I will listen to you.

If I do something that upsets you, feel free to hit me.

Get up.

Follow me back to Zizhu Peak.

[Chonghua Palace]

This is where I live.

[Chonghua Palace] I usually work in the hall.

Why not let me go?

I...

It's your room for now.

Is this my room?

Great.

I love it.

So nice.

Now you look like an immortal lady.

Why don't you take a look?

Why are you still standing here?

Are you waiting for me to lead you there?

It's way too plain.

Good enough.

Let me know if there is anything missing.

No, everything's fine.

I have never lived in such a nice house.

It's just...

I'm a little hungry.

[Breathing Method]

Immortal disciples do not need to eat.

It records the Nanhua Sect's breathing method.

Go to study it first.

If I don't eat, what should I do if I'm hungry?

I have nothing to eat in the Mortal World,

and the situation remains the same

after I come to the Immortal World?

Do what the book says and you won't be hungry.

I can't read.

I am such a blind sage who accepted such a stupid disciple.

Now can you read?

You have to study hard and never be lazy.

Yes, Master.

She looks quite different.

I didn't recognize her at first.

Sage Tianji came so soon

because of worrying about my disciple?

Who dares to control your disciple?

But I do want to talk to you about Chong Zi.

She's with me. Don't worry.

Great, I don't have to go hungry.

So icy.

I know you won't send her down the mountain.

But she is born with evil breath.

Be careful.

Didn't you urge me to accept disciples?

But who would have thought that

you would accept such a disciple?

I hope you are not sent by the councilor to be a lobbyist.

We are not as rigid as you think.

If it weren't for the evil breath,

I also think Chong Zi is very good.

Chonghua Palace I am most afraid of serious disciples.

But Chong Zi is different.

She dares to speak the truth, is fearless,

and we are very much on the same page.

Although the last person who was born with evil breath was Ni Lun,

he already died.

Chong Zi is innocent.

It depends on how you teach her.

She's born with evil breath.

It stands to reason that she is going to be a demon.

If she is really stubborn,

you don't have to waste your time.

Sorry.

If I don't eat you, I will starve to death.

I don't know where to cook.

Why are the stoves in the Immortal World so small?

It can't even hold a fish.

Where is the seasoning?

Nice spice.

Don't worry.

I won't teach her spells.

At most I will teach her some self-defense techniques.

Although she wouldn't intentionally hurt anyone with her evil breath,

if she learned some spells,

it would instead stimulate her evil breath

and hurt innocent people,

so that the gain would outweigh the loss.

Let her be the most ordinary immortal.

It would be nice to have an extra disciple

who cleans and serves.

But if one doesn't know spells,

he will suffer in the end in Nanhua.

Forget it.

Just try to protect her.

It depends on her.

[Chonghua Palace]

What's the smell?

Master, Sage Tianji.

You have come just in time.

Come and try my grilled fish.

This is what I do best.

Given the size of this fish...

Could it be the one you have raised for four hundred years?

Four hundred years?

No wonder the fish meat is so tough.

This...

Look...

Could this be the ancient book

you have collected for so many years?

Yinfan.

I think your pharmacy is ruined.

Chong Zi.

Master, it's my fault.

I'm so hungry.

Didn't I show you the Breathing Method?

I am a fool.

I've learned the Breathing Method for a long time,

but I failed.

I am afraid that if this continues,

I will starve to death at Zizhu Peak before I learn it.

From this point of view, it wasn't all Chong Zi's fault.

It's just a pity that this fish

had been with you for four hundred years.

Master, please forgive me this time.

Since the fish is gone,

I will talk with you to relieve your boredom in the future,

and you will never be alone.

Seriously?

If you were asked to give up all the delicacies in the world

and your desire for gluttony,

would you also be willing to stay in Zizhu Peak?

Of course.

I will now tell you the first rule of Zizhu Peak.

As my disciple, you can't kill,

nor can you have the intention of harming others.

I will abide by the rules,

never kill, and never have the intention of harming others.

Let go.

Stand up.

Now I will teach you the essentials of the breathing method.

Concentrate and meditate.

Adjust the internal breath according to the formula I taught.

Breathe nothingness into the pubic region.

Green and clear water.

Don't get distracted while practicing.

I didn't.

What are you holding in your hand?

I...

Practicing is boring, right?

Not at all.

Although the practice is boring, you are good-looking.

Forget it.

You are just a kid.

It will be difficult for you

to adapt to this poor life all of a sudden.

Not at all.

I am very happy to take care of you.

I'm just afraid that you can't adapt.

What do you mean?

I'm new here and unaware of the rules.

I'm afraid that one day I will annoy you

and you'll drive me down the mountain.

Don't worry.

It won't happen.

Really?

Then promise me.

No matter what I do, you can't be angry.

OK, I promise you.

Go ahead.

Master, take a try.

Chong, you...

Master, tea, please.

Chong!

I won.

Master.

Master, looks good?

I asked you to practice breathing method in your room,

and you sneaked to the pharmacy to play with grass and fish.

I asked you to sit here to read the book and imitate,

and you just drew this.

Don't be angry

- I knew that... - Okay.

If you keep making trouble, I will take these words back.

Okay, would you give me something new?

What do you want?

Such as,

never mind, well done, and amazing.

I'd like to give you another four words.

Chong Zi is great.

Lost in the indulgence.

Am I proud?

How is the handwriting I asked you to practice?

Master.

Master, look.

[Luo Yinfan] I wrote your name.

What else?

Well...

Come back.

Come here.

Wait, Master.

Master, let me go.

Sit down.

It's no use being coquettish.

Practicing calligraphy is a kind of cultivation.

Work hard.

I will check.

Master.

Remember.

Work hard.

I will check.

[Word Power Made Easy]

[Fish Bird Turtle]

[Luo Yinfan]

[Turtle]

[Turtle]

[Three years later]

[Turtle]

Master.

I listened to your words

and worked hard to practice calligraphy.

The Demon is aggressively invading, hope Nanhua will help. Kunlun Sect

Chong.

This is the letter from Mr. Kunlun.

Master, it's my fault.

Enough.

That's all for today's competition.

Senior Miaoyuan, your swordsmanship has improved again.

It was my negligence just now.

I will win you next time.

Miaoyuan, don't rush for quick success.

Although your swordsmanship has improved,

there are still many problems in the competition just now.

After the Councilor finds out, he will definitely accuse you.

As a senior, you have to be strict with yourself.

Senior Mu.

Senior Miaoyuan has to supervise the style of the disciples

for the Councilor, and also handles the affairs

among sects for him,

so she will inevitably be distracted by these.

I don't have these burdens,

so I shouldn't be bad at swordsmanship.

It makes sense.

Three years have passed in a flash.

You've become mature.

Whether it's practising swordplay,

or handling affairs for the sect,

you can work independently.

It's all thanks to Senior Mu.

Those of us juniors who came to Nanhua

have achieved some success in swordsmanship now,

and at least we can control the sword.

It's just that

I wonder how the wild girl who worshiped under Sage Chonghua

is cultivating now.

We haven't seen her since we became disciples.

Chong Zi will be taught by Sage Chonghua.

Her spells are naturally no worse than yours.

The spells of Sage Chonghua are naturally unmatched.

But his disciple's is not necessarily like that.

Learning spells requires talent and hard work.

In my opinion, who is more powerful remains uncertain.

Really?

Since you said so, let Sage Chonghua bring his disciple

to compete with you next time.

Okay, I will definitely be the first to compete with her.

Miaoyuan.

It's not bad to be competitive,

but it's not a good thing to be way too aggressive.

You have to go to the Patriarch's Hall to worship tonight.

Go get prepared.

- Yes. - Yes.

Go.

I will compete with you next time.

Master.

Master.

Where are you going?

Come back.

Master, what are you reading?

[Ancient Spell] Why can't I understand

[Ancient Spell] any of the words above?

This is an ancient book handed down from ancient times,

which records many rare spells.

I know that Master is doing a very important thing.

Could such a great master promise me

a less demanding request?

You're not allowed to go down the mountain.

Master.

Master, you are the best.

Just promise me such a small request, okay?

Isn't it good to be on Zizhu Peak?

It is.

It's just that I kind of miss my childhood playmates.

Master, do you still remember

the Xichun Restaurant in Panhai Town I told you about?

The dessert there is delicious.

The aroma of their freshly baked dessert

can waft two streets.

It's a pity that I didn't have a chance

to eat fresh ones at that time.

Master.

Look, I have been on Zizhu Peak for so long.

Let alone the Mortal World,

I haven't even visited Nanhua properly.

I have been on Zizhu Peak all the time,

and I don't know any other seniors.

And the Prince who came to Nanhua with me.

I don't know how he is now.

Master, just give me two hours.

- I promise that I won't... - Enough.

You've said that to me countless times.

The answer is still the same.

No.

Even if other people raise kittens and puppies,

they will take them out for a walk.

I'm not practicing,

I'm simply in confinement on Zizhu Peak.

I shouldn't be discovered by Master

if I go out secretly for a while.

- Sir. - Sir.

Miaoyuan.

It so happened that your father wrote

to ask about your recent situation.

I didn't expect that you could really

endure the pain of cultivation.

All these years, you've cultivated every day, rain or shine.

I will definitely praise you to your father.

Since all the juniors can make it,

as a senior, I should work harder.

You are really hardworking and smart.

It's really a blessing for Qin Ke

to have you by his side all these years.

I will definitely ask Mu Yu

to teach you the next level of swordsmanship.

You and Qin Ke can continue to compete and learn from each other.

Thank you, sir.

What a disciple ignorant of the rules.

I...

This is Chong Zi, disciple of Chonghua Palace.

Greetings to Sage Tianji.

Did your master send you down the mountain?

Exactly.

This is my first time going downhill.

Master told me not to forget the etiquette.

So I came to meet you first.

Good kid.

So what are your plans for going down the mountain this time?

Master told me to be familiar with all places in Nanhua,

and to share my cultivation experience with my seniors.

Miaoyuan.

This is the first time Chong Zi goes down the mountain.

And you came to Nanhua together.

Why don't you take Chong Zi to look around,

and catch up on old times?

Don't worry, sir.

You are Sima Miaoyuan, that princess?

How dare you call Senior Miaoyuan by her name?

Never mind.

There is no need to call me princess here.

But you can't show no respect to your seniors.

Are you Chong Zi?

Yes.

She is the Chong Zi

who has never come down from Zizhu Peak.

[Patriarch's Hall] So ignorant.

What qualifications does she have to be Sage Chonghua's disciple?

You have been in Nanhua Sect for so long.

Have you ever been to the Patriarch's Hall?

Not yet.

In front of you is the Patriarch's Hall,

the place where the ancestors of Nanhua were enshrined.

Every year on the day of the establishment of the sect,

all Nanhua disciples

will come here to worship the ancestors.

You never came here once.

Does Sage Chonghua really take you as his disciple?

You'd better learn the rules of Nanhua

before you come to me.

Don't waste our time.

Then I won't bother you.

I don't need it anyway.

[Patriarch's Hall]

There is nothing interesting about Nanhua Mountain.

So cool.

Am I bothering you?

Don't worry, I won't let you die.

Don't look at me, we don't know each other.

My name is...

Ugly girl.

You are ugly.

It's you!
