Original subtitles

The soul that lies dust-laden among the stars, the sun and the moon

Awakens the helplessness of a delirious nightmare.

Uncovering this destiny's thread of events,

cannot escape this lifetime of loneliness.

Behind lies gloomy haze,

before lies a mountain pass.

Even if I want to escape, there is no running away.

But regardless of how fate governs my life,

my persistent heart won't change.

No matter how much time passes and how much the world changes.

Listening to the forlorn sound of the guqin, can't forget what should be forgotten.

Mortal relations entrap my youth.

Forgive the clear arrogance I've hidden in my heart.

go forth into battle and face the vastness, mightiness of the earth and heaven.

Life is also desolate

deeply attracted, like a roaring blaze burning.

The past, watch as I walk once through the ups and downs.

Using the cold blade edge and the guqin's solitude, write the events of the past and of today.

the lonely sword against my fingertip, speak and laugh easily.

Episode 14

Shao Gong

I remember when we were little,

you used to play the zither,

and like now, I would stand and listen to you play.

I can't believe after so many years,

I can still listen to your zither.

Ru Qin, I need to leave Qin Chuan.

I came here today to specifically say goodbye to you.

And thank you for the zither that you gave me.

The song that I just played is a farewell gift.

So it was a farewell song.

I thought wrong.

Are you leaving because of her?

Forget me, Ru Qin.

And find another, who will love you and cherish you.

And I wish that you will have what you want.

It's just in the future,

will you come to Qin Chuan to visit us again?

I can't believe

a careful person like you

would say such fleeting words.

Ru Qin, in this world, you're the last person I would want to forget.

Aunt Tong

This time I'm leaving, I don't know how long it will be.

Your body can't handle moving around too much.

You should stay here at Qin Chuan.

Because of the zither

you feel that I betrayed you.

I know that you want the best for me

And wish that I settle down.

But I'm adamant and have to leave.

Are you quickly leaving because of Ru Qin?

Are you afraid that one day you will feel something for her?

Or are you afraid of delaying your goal?

You are wrong.

Only with a goal will I have a reason to live.

If I keep staying in Qin Chuan, there will only be pointless problems.

Aunt Tong, you are my benefactor.

I don't want to see you sad with farewell before I leave.

Please take care of yourself.

Shao Gong, something is wrong.

You need to head over to the medicine room.

There are alot of patients with a strange disease.

When did this start?

About 3 to 4 days already.

At first, they just wanted sleep, but they have been comatosed all day.

Before that, did any thing happen?

Of course not. The child has always been healthy.

That day when working in the field

he suddenly said that he didn't have any strength.

And then he fainted.

At first, I thought he was tired.

Who would have known it would turn out like this.

My husband as well. He has always been healthy.

My family too.

Shao Gong, their faces are so white.

Looks like they're not breathing

Do they have the plague?

It doesn't seem like the plague.

Checking their pulse, their chi have been absorbed.

Absorbed their chi?

On the night that it happened,

I saw a fox outside my house.

Was it a fox demon?

You're right! I saw it too.

Yes, I saw it too.

It has absorbed the chi of healthy males. It's definitely a fox demon.

A few days ago, there were people stealing flowers.

Now, there's a fox demon.

What are we going to do?

What's with the loud noise? Scared of what?

I already said. With me here,

I have my powers.

If I'm not enough, here's a Tian Yong City disciple.

Shao Gong, what should we do?

Based on their symptoms, it is very strange.

It doesn't matter what demon it is.

Tusu, you should check things out.

I want to go too.

I can go alone.

No way. I want to go.

How long do you need? It's almost dark.

All the sick people live around here.

There's a chance that the fox demon is still here.

We should watch here.

Takes so much work.

This is not worth it.

Once the fox demon shows up, we should just fight it.

I will use my powers to control it.

You use your sword and stab it. I don't believe that we won't be able to capture it.

Isn't what I said right?

You say something!

Could it be that there wasn't a demon at all?

I'm so bored. I need to go outside to check.

This evil fox demon!

We finally caught you.

You wasted so much of our time.

Finally, we're able to capture you. Let's see if you can escape now.

Tusu, save me! Save me!

Save me!

You fox demon! I will kill you!

You were the girl that was looking for me.

Are you crazy? Why are you talking to a fox demon?

Ru Qin

How come you're alone?

Early this morning I heard that Ms. Sun asked to see you

What does she want with you?

You mean Yue Yan?

I asked Shao Gong to write a prescription for her

After taking it, Yue Yan is getting a lot better

Granny Sun, on the other hand, wants Shao Gong over

But Shao Gong is really too busy

So we could only see him at his infirmary

Where is Susu and Lan Sheng?

They went to catch a demon.

You, you, you... why are you a fox demon? Why?

How can you ask "why" so many times?

Why are you a human? Ridiculous.

Brother Yunxi,

I finally found you.

How do you know my name is Yun Xi?

Don't you remember?

At Wu Meng Valley, by the lake, you have saved my life.

I have forgotten my memories when I was young.

Besides knowing my name, do you know anything else?

Why was there a massacre at Wu Meng Valley?

Have you seen the demon masked person?

I don't know anything.

Were you just looking for me?

Then why do you hurt people and absorb their chi?

- I -Why did you absorb their chi?

For someone so pretty,

how could you go down the dark path?

I didn't hurt anyone.

I didn't do any of that.

I know.

It's the medicine that the black clothed person gave him.

I saw it.

It's this.

Shao Gong, what medicine is this?

Strong evil influence is present.

It doesn't seem like something that can be found in the Human's World.

Who is this masked person? Why is he giving them this medicine?

Qing Xue, Tusu, you two should find out if the people have any enemies.

Let's see if we can find any clues.

-For now, let's leave the medicine here with me. -Ok

Where is the fox demon now?

Lan Sheng is watching her.

Xiang Ling, are you really a demon?

How can a demon and a human be the same?

Did you really transform to a human?

None of your business that I'm a demon.

I'm a fox demon.

Do you want me to transform?

I don't. I don't. I don't.

Lan Sheng

Hurry and open the door, Lan Sheng.

Lan Sheng, open the door.

Lan Sheng, open up.

Second sister

Who were you talking to?

I was talking to myself.

Weren't you and Tusu catching a demon last night?

Why are you hiding in your room afterwards?

Are you ok?

I'm fine.

Did you bring something home?

How could I?

How could I bring a demon home?

How could I bring a fox demon home?

Fox demon?

Are you possessed?

I... Sis

How can I be possessed?

There's a higher chance that I'm lovesick instead.

Don't talk about me.

You are lovesick too.

Look at the puffiness beneath your eyes.

It is evident that you didn't sleep well yesterday.

Isn't it because of you?

Me? Isn't it because of Shao Gong?

Sis, I think that having a demon isn't such a bad thing.

If there's a demon, then there's alot of patients, and Shao Gong will stay to treat patients. Right?

If he wants to leave, then he eventually will leave.

You should be tired since last night.

Don't run around anymore.

And stop trying to catch demons.

Be careful that you'll be mesmerized by a demon.

Xiang Ling... Xiang Ling...

Demon and human can't be together.

It's been a few days.

Is your family ok?

My family is fine.

This is strange.

They were once healthy.

How come they're like this?

This is worrisome.

Let's go.

These 12 patients have no relations.

They're normal town folks.

And have no enemies.

Also, only one person in each household is sick.

That means the masked person isn't doing this for revenge.

By making the town folk sick,

what is the reason for doing this?

There is one person that would know.

You two have a sense of heroism.

Ever since you came to Qin Chuan,

the guards don't have to work.

All the crimes are sent to Baili.

If I was the courthouse, I would give you a plaque.

Stop the flattery.

About the 12 sick people,

I think that you know something.

This is a weird situation.

First, it was the plague.

Then it was a fox demon.

Then it was poison.

Everyone is worried and scared. But...

-But what? -All the sick people are young men.

Also, they have no relations to each other.

Nor do they have any enemies.

I think that the poisoning

isn't meant to hurt people.

It's about what's in the medicine.

So, you mean that they're using people to test the medicine.

You are a genius.

Who is that cruel

to test medicine on innocent people?

In this world, there are those who,

will use any means to achieve their goals.

For example, Qing Yun Tan, they are very great mysterious about their medicine making.

They have once used live people to test their medicine.

-Qing Yun Tan? -Yes, Qing Yun Tan.

One side good and one side evil.

And they can't tell if they're good or evil.

Ouyang Shao Gong, isn't he from Qing Yun Tan sect?

But he is a healer.

With his reputation and character,

I don't think that he would do such evil things.

Shao Gong isn't such a person.

I know that. I was only using him as an example.

Also, Qing Yun Tan sect is very far from Qin Chuan. Right?

I think that there's a chance

that another sect or someone else is testing on the town folks.

Is there a sect nearby that is testing medicine?

I never heard of any sects testing medicine.

I heard of some news though.

From what I guess, the masked person is still in town.

Think about it.

If he poisoned people to test the medicine,

he must wait until the medicine takes effect. Right?

Next, we have to see if your friend,

Ouyang Shao Gong, or the masked person is stronger.

Qing Yun Tan has tested medicine on live people before.

But it was to treat difficult diseases.

Those patients volunteered for testing because they wanted to live.

If they used healthy people for testing, then Qing Yun Tan would have been known as a bad sect.

We can exclude the government.

Are there any other evil sects?

I'm unsure about that.

But... I want to use my medicine to treat the people.

I want to see if it can cure them.

Or when there is a change in their current conditions,

what move will the culprit make?

Currently, I'm worried that the culprit will hurt other people.

Then I will go and notify Uncle Wu right away, to get ready to help.

I think that if he's testing medicine, he will continue testing.

Why don't we split up?

When they will appear, we can then catch them all at once.

It's just right now. We don't know how strong the masked person is.

You all must be careful.

Tusu. Qing Xue.

-Why are you here? -I want to help catch the culprit.

No need.

That's right. You should go home. Your sister will be worried.

I don't want to go home.

I want to help people.

Learn the way and practice immortality like you.

-I found... the fox demon's hideout. -What?

Have you gone crazy?

Of course not.

Doesn't matter if you're human or demon.

I just want to do good deeds

to prove myself.

We are doing important things. Please stop bothering us.

I'm helping everyone.

This has nothing to do with you.

Hey! To capture demons and eliminate evil

is everybody's responsibility. Isn't that right?

This time I have made a decision.

I am going to follow you.

Haven't you notice that all those people who chase and capture demons always have a helper?

I don't need one.

Also, you have never learn the craft. So, no way.

I don't care. I'm just going to follow you.

I won't be get in the way.

If you get caught, then I have to save you. What a bother.

Also, Ru Qin said if you keep bothering me to learn the craft,

-I can... -Sis!

You think about it.

Fine then! You don't need to be so mean.

Qing Xue, do you have anything for me to do?

-Of course. -What can I help you with? Tell me.

Tonight, stay at home and don't go outside.

SuSu, I will use the Spirit Butterflies to communicate with you later.

Did something happen at Qing Xue's side?

Do you understand what I'm saying?

You are created by Qing Xue's magic.

Or do you always stay by her side,

Like my Ah Xiang.

Do you know what Qing Xue is thinking?

I have forgotten all my memories when I was young.

But she remembers.

And is very kind to me.

Elder and Senior told me to stay away from people of You Dou. It is better to stay away.

At least, my evil spirits won't hurt her.

If I don't have an evil force, then it won't be so troublesome.

But if there were no evil spirits,

we would not have met.

Qing Xue, you can hear everything?

Susu, when the next full moon comes,

We can try the magics of You Dou.

Alright.

SuSu is so nice!

Don't think that without you all,

I can't catch the culprit.

I will definitely catch him.

Then let's see if you will still look down on me.

Don't see me. Don't see me.

Why do I feel that this place seems dark and damp?

Lan Sheng, don't be scared.

You have the Green Jade of the South with you.

Evil can't come close. Evil can't come close.

This is weird.

What are those people doing?

Senior

After three years, this is the first time that we fought.

This is great. You have improved alot.

I'm sorry to disrespect you.

Let's move to a different place to talk.

Where are you staying now?

So, you all are investigating the case masked man testing medicine.

Since young, you always wanted to help people.

In the end, you got what you wished.

Qing Xue, Shao Gong, thank you for taking care of Tusu.

Senior brother is too polite.

Even though I am no longer a Tian Yong City disciple,

But TuSu is still my brother.

Since he came to Qin Chuan, it is my pleasure to take care of him.

Saving people's lives is also my responsibility.

I will help everyone solve the case of the masked man.

Tusu, I want you to promise me one thing.

Once this is solved,

I want you to return to Tian Yong City with me.

Tusu

Senior brother, it's late.

Let's rest tonight.

After we catch the masked man, we can discuss more.

That's right. Qin Chuan is great. Stay for a bit.

Senior, are you angry?

I'm not angry.

I remember in the past

when you came to Tian Yong City

Became a student under Master's teaching.

we stayed in the same room like real brothers.

There is nothing that we won't talk about.

I remembered every time I got tired of practicing martial arts,

then I would go back to the room to wait for you.

You would bring me alot of food.

Rub medicine on my wounds,

and tell me stories about things below the mountain.

All these years, you saw me as your real brother.

But in the past few years,

I haven't been able to protect you.

The day when I went back to Tian Yong City.

I saw the cage in which you were imprisoned.

I was very scared.

That year when I turned away,

I lost my younger brother.

This time I went down the mountain,

it almost...

Senior, you can't be blamed. You shouldn't blame yourself.

No, Elder wants me to take good care of you.

I wasn't able to do it.

What Head Reverend asks me to do.

I didn't do it right.

Just like before when I didn't do well enough to protect my younger brother.

After so many years,

I'm still the same.

Senior, can't you see that I'm a good person now.

You shouldn't blame yourself.

After leaving Tian Yong City,

you have changed alot.

-Change? -You talk more.

It seems that Qing Xue and Shao Gong has greatly influenced you.

Not just Qing Xue and Shao Gong,

Ru Qin, Uncle Wu and all of them are also kind

to a foreigner like me.

There's only Fang Lan Sheng, who causes problems,

but he's not a bad person.

Fang Lan Sheng

He's the young master of the Fang family.

He has always dreamed of learning the path to immortality.

And wanted me to teach him the craft.

If he sees you tomorrow, he will want to be your disciple.

So insistent and determine?

I would like to meet him.

-Where is this place? -Young Master Fang

Da Liu? How come you are here? (Da Liu means Big Ox)

Weren't you sick? Are you cured now?

Thanks to Doctor Ouyang's medicine,

We feel better now.

But last night,

We were fast asleep.

When we woke up in the morning, we were already here.

I heard our kidnappers talking.

Saying something about Fan Yun Jan.

Young master Fang, do you know what that place is?

Fan Yun Jan?

How come it's Fan Yun Jan again?

Li Pan An

Li Pan An! You dog!

You unchanging scumbag! Come over here!

Young Master Fang, you know who captured us?

I know him. He's ugly and evil.

Don't be scared.

Let me take care of him.

Doggie Li! You Shrimp! Come out!

You Dog! Come out!

-Be quiet! -

Last time, if it we were generous and forgiving,

You would be in jail right now.

And now, you even dare to kidnap us?

That's right! We have never done you any wrong.

Well water does not mix with river water.

Why did you captured us?

That's right! -Shut your mouth! Are you tired?

By capturing you, I'm helping you.

I will cure your illness.

Look at each of you? Lively and jumping around.

You are don't appreciate my kindness, right?

Then I won't care you fall over.

Bullshit! It was Dr. Ouyang who healed us.

Isn't that right brothers? Yeh! That's right!

Dr. Ouyang? That guy healed you guys? Not possible!

Bullshit! Mister Shou can't heal them, huh?

His healing methods is so great.

I know now. It was you who poisoned them.

And caused them to be sick, right?

What do you know, huh?

I gave them medicine to try.

This medicine is good for them.

And you guys haven't even thank me!

Bullshit! You underhanded, shameless, thick skinned scoundrel.

If you want to test medicine, test it on yourself.

To test on the innocent citizens,

you really are too evil.

It's bad enough that you are ugly. But your heart is even more ugly!

What did you say?!

If you don't shut your mouth, I will poison you to death!

Poison me. I am not afraid of you!

Stinky dog, who could even measure up to a ghost.

You are not even worthy of a glimpse from my sister's eyes.

It would have dirtied my sister's eyes.

Let me tell you. You better let us go.

When Tusu and Shao Gong comes, they will beat you.

You stinky kid! You are not allow to call me ugly!!!!

Ouyang Shao Gong? Last time I didn't pay attention.

This time if he comes again.

I am going to let him come in vertically and leave by being carry out!

-Tusu -Ru Qin

Have you seen Lan Sheng? He didn't come home last night.

-Do you know where he went? -I don't know.

-Who is this? -He is my senior, who came to Qin Chuan last night.

It was late last night, so we didn't bother you.

Sorry to bother you.

Did Lan Sheng tell you where he went?

No, unless Xiang Ling...

No, he said he's going to catch the culprit.

Catch the culprit?

The medicine made with the jade piece

after you take it, you will lose all your strength.

In time,

can it really heal?

I bring you this medicine

Can help you change into a new person.

And increase your martial strength.

Do you want to try?

Stinky dog, who couldn't even measure up to a ghost.

You are not even worthy of a glimpse from my sister's eyes.

It would have dirtied my sister's eyes.

Gang Lord, that kid, Fang Lan Sheng,

let's just kill him..

He drives everybody nuts with his all scolding.

-What should we do? What do you mean?

-Gag him. But he said if we don't let him go,

he will tear down our hideout.

He is too arrogant!

Gang Lord, I think

We should just kill him.

Stop saying nonsense!

He is Miss Fang's younger brother.

We can't kill him.

Then Gang Lord, what do you think we should do?

Now that the situation has gotten bigger.

Sooner or later, the people of Qin Chuan will find out.

Then they will come and get us.

Didn't I said keep it down? Keep it down! Keep it down Keep it down!

Yes, yes, yes. Gang Lord, you did said that.

But all the brothers are scared.

What if that wooden face guy from last time

and that guy who knew how to use poison, Ouyang Shou Dong come again,

none of us are a match to them.

Who said we can't fight them.

Last time was just an accident.

Stinky lad...

Hey Gang Lord, what are you doing?

You can say the wrong things, but you can't take the wrong medicine!

No need to worry.

Didn't the town folks take the medicine already?

I made this Tse shui pill

It is not a big deal.

Give everyone the pill.

Then when our martial strength increase

I don't think those stinky lads would be able to withstand us!

Yes, Gang Lord!

Exactly, where did he go? We checked the whole city.

Ru Qin is very worried.

It seems that Lan Sheng likes Xiang Ling.

He might have went with the fox demon.

A fox demon?

It's not good. Something bad is going on.

Dr. Ouyang, do you still remember those 12 patients that you've treated a few days ago?

They have been missing since last night.

Yesterday, you've made some medicine for them.

Don't know if you have any clues over here?

All 12 patients went missing at the same time.

Then they have kidnapped them,

the masked man must have others helping him.

Lan Sheng went missing last night as well. Does it have something to do with this too?

It can't be a coincidence.

But he has the Green Jade of the South to protect him. For the time being,

he shouldn't be in danger.

We must find where about of those people immediately.

What is the Green Jade of the South?

Is it a protective talisman?

It's a magic charm that Lan Sheng has since he was a little boy.

It's good that he has the charm.

As long as that charm is magical

then I could use the Tian Yong craft to find him.

You do bad and evil things.

This is not right.

I would suggest you turn around and return to the righteous path.

Amituofo. Shut your mouth!

I've been tricked by you before.

Now you want to trick me again.

I didn't want to trick you.

Didn't you want to marry my sister?

I won't let you out.

Hey, brother! Let go!

You don't have to let me out, but you can send a message to my sister.

In Qin Chuan, our Fang family has alot of money.

If you help her only brother,

she will reward you kindly.

Is that ok?

Ok, whatever you want, I'll agree to it.

Then you must help me find a wife.

Alright then. No problem.

I promise.

What are you all doing? Stay still!

Let me out.

Why is it Fan Yun hideout again?

Could be that Li Pan An is the masked man?

It's not good to stay in this place for long. This place is full of evil force. Maybe something has change for the worst.

Be careful.

Is he a human or demon?

How did he become like this?

It must be some thing evil that have cause a human to become demonic.

Is it the medicine that caused this?

It could be.

Senior Brother, Tusu and I have been here.

We don't know where the other town folks are.

We should split into 3 groups.

Qing Xue and Tusu go and look for Li Pan An.

Senior brother, you go save the people.

I will go find where Li Pan An made the medicine.

Ok.

Help me! Help me!

Help me!

Get away!

Help me!

Help me!

Hero, you are so powerful.

Are you Fang Lan Sheng?

Yes, are you here to save me?

-I'm Tusu's Senior Brother, Ling Yue. Quickly, follow me. -Ok.

They came back to life.

Let me go, or I won't be able to fight them.

Don't kill them. They are Qin Chuan's town folks.

You can't tell anymore.

Before they were, now I don't know.

I can't recognize them anymore.

Li Pan An

How can you change like

Change to what?

Did I become uglier?

Are you scared?

That is what I want.

Now, my martial strength has increased greatly!

I want to see who

would dare to scold me and call me ugly again!

Looking at you,

I can't even tell if you're human or demon.

Craving power, you have turned this way.

You are stupid and pathetic.

Today, I will show you,

who is stupid and pathetic.

Susu

How did it come to this?

Put me down! Put me down!

Put me down!

These people have lost their minds.

If we don't kill them, we won't make it out alive.

Don't let them die terribly.

Wow, what magical technique is this? -Swords to pierce the heart!

So this is Tianyong City sword skills. You are even more skilled than TuSu!

But why are you breathing so rapidly?

Do you want to rest?

This place is dangerous. Let's go.

So, he used live people to test the medicine.

Fell in love with the quietly flowing river of stars that fill the sky

as if a dream has covered itself in soft flowing robes

moist eyes cannot hold back the sorrow that stirs in my heart

In this moment, I should be leaning on your shoulder.

I still remember your simple and innocent appearance in the beginning

But now you've experienced the vicissitudes of life

Even if I'll get hurt, I'm still willing to forever

Wait at your side like this.

Look into the distance, in the direction in which you pointed

We went there to climb, to wander

In the distance, those clear bright times

Even now they are unforgettable.

Look into the distance, we were once impetuous in our youth

Nursing our dreams, we traversed the vast land

We searched for the heaven of love in distant places

I went flying with you.

Bravely fly into the distance.
