[Zhaoge City]

[Yin Shou, King Zhou]

[Su Daji]

The Deer Terrace Pavilion is almost complete.

Your Majesty, when it's complete, you will be immortal.

Why are you so worried?

Building the Deer Terrace Pavilion

has been objected to by so many officials.

I have an idea

that may silence the rattlebrains.

My love, what good idea do you have?

The Paoluo torture.

[In the late Shang Dynasty, ]

[enchanted by Daji, ]

[King Zhou killed the wise officials]

[and enslaved his people.]

[The Heixing Army cruelly suppressed all tribes]

[and drove all craftsmen to Zhaoge]

[to build the Deer Terrace Pavilion.]

[For a time, ]

[the vassals were too scared to talk]

[and the people were living in misery.]

[The great sage Ji Chang, Count of the West, ]

[tried to relieve people's misery.]

[Ji Chang, Count of the West] [He went to remonstrate with King Zhou, ]

[Ji Chang, Count of the West]

[but ended up being imprisoned in Youli for years.]

[To overthrow the tyrannical rule, ]

[warriors from Xiqi, ]

[after going through hardships, ]

[finally rescued Ji Chang]

[and escaped from Zhaoge.]

My Lord,

General Zizhan has drawn away the Heixing army.

The road ahead

may not be as easy.

We must

return to Xiqi.

[The Gods]

[Zhongnan Mountain]

Stop!

Stop!

Stop running!

Stop!

Heaven takes its law from the Tao.

The Tao takes its law from nature.

Manipulate objects with Qi,

and the object will be alive.

Senior Brother,

when can we be as skilled as you?

Yeah.

There's no hurry.

As long as you take me as an example

and keep practicing,

I believe

that you'll make progress soon.

Remember,

never follow the example of Lei Zhenzi,

who only...

Who... who are you?

You don't know me?

My name is...

Stop right there!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop running!

Lei Zhenzi!

Stop!

Lei Zhenzi,

get down here.

You just want this crappy stick, don't you?

Come up and take it.

You!

Lei Zhenzi!

Lei Zhenzi!

Senior Brother.

Don't stop me.

I must show him what I got

today!

Lei Zhenzi,

get down here!

Is he sleeping?

I think so.

- Outrageous! - Senior Brother!

Lei Zhenzi!

- Senior Brother! - Senior Brother!

This is the holy statue of our founder.

Please don't be reckless!

Yeah, Senior Brother.

So what?

I'm gonna teach this monster a lesson

on behalf of our master!

- Senior Brother! - Senior Brother!

You were calling me a monster?

So what?

You wanna beat your senior brother again?

Did you just call me a monster?

He's bluffing. You think I'd be scared of him?

Senior Brother, watch out!

Stop standing there.

Help me!

Master.

[Yun Zhongzi]

Get rid of your wild thoughts.

The Tao will breed Qi,

and Qi will breed yin and yang.

I quit.

I have told you many times.

You were born with spiritual power,

but you'll eventually hurt yourself and others

if you can't master it well enough.

I guess it's better for us to part ways.

Just let me leave this mountain.

Otherwise,

I'll kick their asses sooner or later.

How dare you!

Kneel!

You stole the golden stick

and blasphemed the holy statue.

Lei Zhenzi,

do you realize your mistakes?

I did nothing wrong.

You bullied your peers

and disrespected the elders.

Lei Zhenzi,

do you realize your mistakes?

I did nothing wrong.

Do you realize your mistakes?

I did nothing wrong!

I did nothing wrong. Nothing!

From today on,

you're not allowed to leave the back hill.

I did nothing wrong.

Stop chasing me.

Stop!

I'm not a monster!

Stop running!

No more chasing.

- Monster! - Don't run.

Monster!

Beat him!

- I'm not... - Monster!

Keep beating him!

Beat him!

I'm not!

[Lintong Pass]

My Lord,

it's windy here. Please go back to rest.

Any news from Xiqi?

Not yet.

I'll send another team of scouts out tomorrow.

No need.

I've asked for help from the gods with the eight trigrams.

We must defend this city.

Rest assured, My Lord.

As long as I'm still alive,

I won't let the Shang troops enter Lintong Pass.

The wind is rising.

What's so hard about conquering a little feather?

[Shen Gongbao]

The power of wind and thunder?

Kid,

who are you?

I'm your uncle!

Quit chasing. He's far gone.

Who are you, then?

[Jiang Ziya] I'm Jiang Ziya.

[Jiang Ziya]

So,

you've come down the mountain

for the five demon-subduing Xuan Stones?

A few days ago, the master sensed anomalies of demonic beings.

For fear of disasters,

he told me to get down the mountain

to search for the Xuan Stones.

I've already found four of them.

I'm one step away from completing my mission.

But the obnoxious Shen Gongbao

came out of nowhere.

Not only did he get in my way,

he also took away

all of my stones.

Junior Shen always tries to be preeminent.

For this matter,

I guess he just wanted

to be the winner in front of the master.

He won't do anything stupid.

Well, if you say so.

By the way, Senior Brother,

I have another thing to tell you.

Look.

A few days ago,

when I was divining by astrology

to look for the Xuan Stones,

I found someone at Lintong Pass asking for help

from Zhongnan Mountain.

Senior Brother,

take a look.

Who is this?

Ji Chang is in distress.

How is your task going?

A redheaded kid in Zhongnan Mountain possesses the power of wind and thunder.

Luckily, his spiritual power is still weak.

If we don't kill him soon,

he'll definitely cause trouble someday.

We don't have time for that.

The Deer Terrace Pavilion is about to be completed.

Imperial Tutor, there's a more urgent thing that I need you to do for me.

Yin Pobai was ordered to catch Ji Chang,

but he couldn't capture Lintong Pass till now.

I'm worried that things may get worse.

I'd like you to go there for me.

So I stop finding the last Xuan Stone?

Ji Chang is the last Xuan Stone.

Old man,

how dare you ambush me?

You talk so rudely, young man.

Strictly speaking,

you should call me Sect Uncle.

I'll give you this spiritual talisman.

It may save your life someday.

Are you kidding?

Do I even need...

Master,

I left the back hill without permission.

Sorry. Please punish me.

Back then, you were seriously ill.

In order to save your life, your father sent you to Zhongnan Mountain.

My... My father?

Yes.

He is the nation-famous great sage

Ji Chang, Count of the West.

He went to Zhaoge to remonstrate with King Zhou,

but was thrown into jail.

Before he left,

he entrusted a baby to me.

He is my son,

Lei Zhenzi.

Your father

just escaped from prison, but now he is in trouble at Lintong Pass.

Zhen,

are you willing to go down to save your father?

Why are you telling me this only now?

I kept it a secret from you

so you won't be too anxious to save him.

Master,

my father is called Ji Chang,

so I'm not a monster,

right?

Of course not.

You're my favorite disciple

and the most missed son of Count of the West.

Today,

I'll teach you how to use this Wind and Thunder Stick.

My good disciple,

you'll go somewhere far away.

I don't know when we'll meet again.

But you must remember,

Zhongnan Mountain

will always be your home.

Charge!

General Zizhan,

the enemy's bombard

has damaged the walls.

If we don't fight back now,

I'm afraid we'll lose the city.

Send my order now.

Prepare to engage.

Out!

Brothers,

we've guarded

this city!

Come.

My Lord,

heavy work has blocked your circulation of Qi.

You'll be fine as long as you take medicine on time.

But...

The insidious disease in your body...

It won't matter.

You may leave now.

My Lord.

My Lord,

look at him.

You are...

You don't know me?

My Lord,

this is your son,

Lei Zhenzi!

Zhen?

When... when did you come down the mountain?

Master sent me here.

He let me escort you to Xiqi.

My Lord, you didn't see it just now.

It's all thanks to his help

that we fended the enemies off.

No.

Zhen,

you go back to Zhongnan Mountain right now.

Why?

Now Lintong Pass is...

You... Go back.

I see.

You just don't trust me, do you?

You want my master to come personally.

Young Master, what your father meant is...

If that's the case, I'll take my leave then.

Goodbye.

Young Master.

Young Master,

there must be a misunderstanding.

Young Master,

please listen to me.

I'll beat you if you keep following me.

Young Master.

Scram!

Trying to escape right after winning a battle?

Redhead.

You!

What?

You chicken.

Who are you calling a chicken?

I'm calling you!

You're a deserter.

I'm not gonna fight a woman.

Let go.

Who's the chicken now?

What are you talking about?

Let go.

You let go.

Let go of your hands!

You mustn't be rude to the young master.

Young Master,

Yueying grew up with me in the military camps.

Sorry, she offended you.

Please don't mind.

Lei Zhenzi,

take a look at them!

They are risking their lives to guard this city!

We don't need

someone like you here!

Yueying!

You're staying?

Why do you war?

We can only rebel

when there are no means to live.

General Zizhan said

that the heavenly fire

would take the soldiers' souls to a new world.

A new world?

Yes.

A new world.

My Lord,

young master has stayed.

Faster!

- Grandpa, I wanna go home. - Faster!

Soon. I'll be soon.

Young man.

Young man.

Get away!

Grandpa!

Back to work!

Hurry!

Who's there?

Your Highness.

How much longer will it be completed?

Your Highness,

within seven days.

It's finally going to be completed.

Go!

Go!

Pull harder!

Lei Zhenzi,

General Zizhan is looking for you.

I'm busy.

It's urgent.

This tug-of-war is also urgent.

Go.

General,

I've brought him to you.

- Let go. - Let go.

Can you not pull me by the ear?

What's your business with me?

Your father sent a piece of clothes to you.

Have a try.

I'm not wearing that.

It fits perfectly!

Look,

clothes make the man.

You're really handsome, Young Master.

Right?

Not so bad.

Okay, I'll take the clothes.

See you later.

Please don't go yet.

Anything else?

Serious business.

Along the way from Zhaoge to Xiqi,

we need to go through Lintong Pass,

Tong Pass,

Chuanyun Pass,

Jiepai Pass,

and Sishui Pass.

Originally, Grand Counselor San had bribed guards of the five passes to help us.

But after King Zhou sent his troops,

they all changed sides.

What do you mean?

It means that our way back to Xiqi

has been blocked by the enemies.

Then we fight our way back.

We've suffered heavy casualties.

Each of the four passes has its own advantages.

We have zero chance of winning.

We do have another way home.

But this way

is extremely dangerous.

You want me to go together with you two, right?

I can go with you.

Does he agree with this?

No.

My Lord,

please change your mind.

Do you know what King Zhou has done to the nation

while you were imprisoned in Youli?

I know.

You are worried about our lives.

Then please,

you must return to Xiqi one way or another.

Please,

build a new world for us.

I'm begging you.

To return to Xiqi,

we can only go through Yunmengchuan.

Apart from the various dangers there,

it's even a demonic terrain.

We're counting on you, Young Master.

What about them when we leave?

Don't worry.

When you reach Yunmengchuan,

I'll return here to keep guarding the city.

My Lord, be careful.

My Lord,

I can only send you as far as here.

Zizhan.

Who is there?

Blackleg shrimp,

it's you again.

Escort His Lordship out of here first!

Zizhan!

General Zizhan!

General!

General Zizhan!

General!

[Yunmengchuan]

I'll go check on him.

I'm not hungry.

Back then,

King Zhou wanted to build the Deer Terrace Pavilion.

So the Heixing Army came to our tribe for craftsmen.

My father led our tribesmen to resist,

but in the end,

all of our people were slaughtered.

General Zizhan saved me.

He used to say

that we should change our way of life.

We must live in peace.

Not to be forced to separate from our families.

Not to worry about our houses being burnt

after we wake up from our sleep.

Not to be bullied anymore.

We must live

in the way that we want to live.

That's really well said.

General Zizhan said

that His Lordship told him all these.

He?

General Zizhan told me

His Lordship has big dreams...

Enough.

When you return to Xiqi,

I don't want to have anything to do with him.

Thanks for this.

Faster!

Move!

Follow up!

Faster!

Grandpa,

- where are we going? - Faster!

Don't be afraid.

- They're going to give us food. - Move!

Faster!

Just wait here.

I'll go get the food back for you.

Move!

Follow up!

Your Highness, Yin Pobai was defeated.

Ji Chang has escaped to Yunmengchuan.

What about Shen Gongbao?

No news about him yet.

I see.

Leave me.

Yes.

My Lord,

right ahead is the blackwater forest.

Please put it in your mouth.

It'll help resist the miasma in the forest.

Let's move!

[Blackwater Forest]

Be careful.

Be on guard.

What's going on?

He was stabbed in the foot with a poisoned needle.

It's a little swollen.

My Lord,

I'm fine.

Your foot is badly hurt.

It won't heal soon.

Let's rest here for a while.

My Lord,

we can't stay here for long.

We can't leave anyone behind.

My Lord,

I can make it.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Hold on tight.

My Lord.

Stop!

I think we're safe here.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

What was that?

It's the blood vitex.

It usually grows in the water.

Only when it smells blood

will it come out to hurt people.

Be careful!

Yueying.

Take my dad and go.

Let's go!

Hurry up!

Chi!

Let's see how long you can hold out!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

No.

Ji Chang.

Go back to Zhaoge with me.

Blackleg shrimp.

I haven't lost yet.

Zhen.

Zhen.

Zhen.

Zhen!

Daddy.

Zhen.

Daddy.

Zhen.

Zhen!

Zhen.

Dad!

Where are you?

Dad!

Where are you?

You're awake.

Who are you looking for?

I...

Where is he?

His Lordship had been taking care of you all day.

He wouldn't go to rest

until you were getting better.

Bring it to him yourself.

Okay, I'll bring it to him.

I'll go.

Zhen.

I... I'll bring you the medicine.

OK.

How are you?

I'm... I'm better now.

Good.

Zhen.

Sit with me for a while.

Zhen.

How have you been

in Zhongnan Mountain these years?

Quite good.

I was very happy together with my brothers there every day.

My master is very good to me.

My master said

that I would be a great man.

You don't believe me?

My master gave me the most powerful spiritual weapons

in Zhongnan Mountain.

It's...

I believe you.

I'm just thinking

how time flies!

In the blink of an eye,

you're a grown-up.

Zhen.

Are you feeling disappointed

in me?

I can't be by your side

like other fathers.

At the Lintong Pass, Zizhan asked me

why I drove you away.

I couldn't even answer him.

As your father,

I really owe you something.

Zhen.

You will surely find

your own star.

Let's go.

There's the grand canyon ahead.

It's said to be a forbidden place for the Dragon Mound.

If we go through here,

we'll get out of the Yunmengchuan.

What's going on?

Something's on your mind?

I've completed the mission given to me by my master.

I should get back to him now.

Zhen.

Xiqi is your home.

Even if you want to go back to Zhongnan Mountain,

why don't you go home and rest for a few days?

Let's go home.

OK!

My Lord,

it's been a long time.

Daji,

it's me you're after.

It has nothing to do with them.

Since I'm here,

you can't hurt my father.

You are the red-haired boy Shen Gongbao mentioned.

You have the power of wind and thunder.

You're a demon!

He's a monster!

I'll beat you! Monster!

Monster.

Teach this monster a lesson.

I'm a demon.

Zhen.

Yueying.

Yueying.

Yueying.

Yueying!

I'll kill you!

Ji Chang.

His Majesty has been lenient with you since you are well-known

as a wise man.

But you're ungrateful and rebellious.

But now

I'm not as kind as His Majesty is.

King Zhou is fatuous

and controlled by you.

It's a scourge for the people in the whole nation.

Speaking of manipulating people,

I'm not as good as you.

Poor red-haired kid.

He won't even know

you are using him before he dies.

All you care about

is the demon spirit inside him.

You...

Shut up!

Back then,

the fox clan lived with you humans in peace.

Celestial Monarch and I had a solemn pledge of love.

But you!

You were ruthless

and pushed him into the abyss!

From then on,

we've been separated forever.

It's been a thousand years.

So,

you're going to use your resentment

to make every one die with you.

It's not that simple.

Deer Terrace Pavilion has been built.

So Celestial Monarch

will meet me again in no time.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Where are you?

Master,

we still couldn't find Junior Lei.

After today,

Your Majesty will live forever with the heaven and the earth.

You will never have to worry about anything again.

Eternal life!

This day

has finally come.

Yin Shou.

When you ascended the throne,

you wore the imperial robe.

You had great ambition

and swore to build a peaceful country.

I

Had been following you

regardless of the risks.

But now,

you're tyrannical.

And you exploited the people.

Who is the woman next to you?

Have you ever seen her clearly?

She is the Queen,

the only woman in the world

who knows me well.

Ji Chang.

You and I have different choices.

You want to be a wise man in the world.

But what I want

is an empire that will last forever

and will never fall.

Even if I have to bear the blame of being a tyrant,

I'll do what I have to do.

Your Majesty,

you once said

you would do anything

if I could stay by your side forever.

Right?

You are my queen.

I'll give you

whatever you want.

I want

your heart.

Don't move!

You almost fell again.

Where are we?

Yunmengchuan, Dragon Mound.

Why are you here?

Young man, you are impolite.

If I hadn't helped you,

I'm afraid you're already on the path of reincarnation.

I've got some important to do.

I have to go now.

By the way,

your master asked me

to tell you something.

What is it?

Your background.

[Before Ji Chang entered Zhaoge, ]

[he came to Zhongnan Mountain]

[with a demon-subduing Xuan Stone.]

[We wanted to use the Wind and Thunder Stick to attract heavenly thunder]

[to destroy the stone.]

[But after the stone was split open by the heavenly thunder, ]

[there was a child possessed by a demonic spirit.]

[That's you.]

[Lei Zhenzi.]

[To save you, ]

[Ji Chang sealed the demonic spirit in his body.]

[And Daji wants]

[the demonic spirit in Ji Chang's body.]

[I brought you here]

[because there's a magic fruit in the Dragon Mound.]

[If you take it, it will awaken the power of wind and thunder in you.]

[But then you'll turn into a demon.]

[And you will never regain the human form.]

[It's been a thousand years.]

[Celestial Monarch, I will finally meet you.]

All the combatants go to the front!

Break!

Demons make the world chaotic.

The immortals are defending the Tao!

Junior Brothers!

Save them!

Demons!

How dare you steal the magic fruit?

I'm not a demon.

I'm Ji Chang's son,

and the disciple of Yun Zhongzi of Zhongnan Mountain.

I'm Lei Zhenzi!

I will take

this magic fruit.

Wind and Thunder Stick!

Zhen!

Daji!

Let go of my father!

You look

much better now.

Red-haired boy.

Join me in welcoming

a new world.

I won't let you hurt anyone around me again.

Celestial Monarch is coming!

The Demon Spirit is reborn.

You can't stop me!

Admit defeat.

Do you know my name?

Listen carefully.

My name is

Lei Zhenzi.

My Lord.

Are you alright?

Yes, I'm fine.

Junior Lei.

Senior Brother,

what happened to you?

Senior Brother,

protect my father.

OK.

Zhen.

Watch out!

Father.

I've found my star!

Junior Lei won!

Junior Lei won!

Junior Lei won!

Zhen!

Junior Lei!

Junior Lei!

[In the battle with Daji, Lei Zhenzi won]

[and made Daji's plot to regenerate the Demon King fail.]

[But he also saved King Zhou.]

[The nation was still under his control.]

[Ji Chang, Count of the West, was escorted back to Xiqi by Lei Zhenzi.]

[He recruited intelligent people from all over the nation.]

[A journey to overthrow the tyranny of King Zhou]

[has officially begun.]

I've long heard about Mr. Fei Xiong.

I'm fasting today

and coming to pay my respects.

I'm honored

to see you in person.

Sir.

Sir.

[Don't go away There's a surprise at the end of the movie]

Who's there?

Who's that?

My queen.

My queen.

My queen.

My queen.
