Original subtitles

When I was nine,

my father took me to the tomb for the first time.

Those who excavate tombs and rake in coffins,

wander between the underworld and the real world.

They believe that the hemp rope can connect to the real life,

which helps them not get lost in the tombs.

Theoretically,

when father and son do the tomb-robbing together,

the son should be the one who climbs down to the tomb and the father should stay on the ground.

But my father was unwilling to do that.

He asked me to stay above the ground waiting for him.

All clear, you can come down now.

As long as I could remember,

there were no elders in the village at all.

Later I learned that

it was no the village fault,

but a strange disease since born.

Without longevity.

This strange disease is caused by the poisoning of the rivers on which the people live.

Then pathogen transferring through blood vessels.

Gold underneath the tomb,

Gold underneath the tomb,

great luck, great joy,

and great tomb.

You are greedy old bastard,

we came down here not for the gold.

Over the years,

We have searched the cure but couldn't make it.

Finally, we found the only hope from an ancient medicine book.

Finally, we found the only hope from an ancient medicine book.

The Muchenzhu.

Digging the graves of the deaths, prolonging the lifetimes of the livings.

Digging the graves of the deaths, prolonging the lifetimes of the livings.

Digging is not hard, finding the Muchenzhu is.

Those young men who didn't get home alive,

all died in the tombs.

Those who dare to excavate my tomb will be cursed,

shall be doomed eternally.

My father believed

that is the destiny of Banshan faction.

Brother Yang,

Is the Muchenzhu really in this tomb？

If we get the Chidanzhu,

we will get the opposite effect.

It's a waste of our lives.

Don't be discouraged.

Gold! Everywhere!

You guys of Banshan search for the Muchenzhu to live,

I, Lord Ma,

only chase for treasure to be rich.

Why there is no coffin?

Weird.

Reverse the great dipper,

tie up the evil thing, uncover the coffin.

Immortals of great dipper, are powerful and omnipotent.

Carve out the way, majestic light shines in.

Shines all over my body, through the water and fume.

Brother Yang!

Shao Ling!

Shao Feng!

Brother Yang!

Brother Yang!

Brother Yang!

Brother Yang!

Shao Ling!

Help us! Brother Yang!

Brother Yang!

Brother Yang!

Shao Feng!

Help us!

Shao Ling!

That day,

my dad didn't show up at the entrance of the Bone Clan tomb.

I just knew he swallowed the fire ladybug and slammed the evil.

Uncle Shao told me that

the son should be the one who stays on the ground and the father should climb down to the tomb is to keep the family alive.

Keeping looking the Muchenzhu is the destiny of Banshan.

I don't believe the destiny.

I only believe

everyone has his life.

[00:00:-01.-01]Don't feel lonely, wandering soul,[00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]you shall have happiness and longevity after death.[00:00:-01.-01]

Neither did my father,

The Muchenzhu, we are desperately looking for,

but a halidom for the man with the illusion rule to control the ethnic group.

They believed in resurrection through the sacrifice of bones.

They called the Bone Clan.

The Muchenzhu is the last clue

which is in their hands.

This is Dabayin Goddess.

They said it illuminates the path to the underworld with the bronze mirror,

and the Muchenzhu can make people rise from the dead and the living be immortal.

Where is that man?

Bro,

even though we are separated from death,

it is the fate that make us meet here.

Nice to meet you.

My bad.

M...ms...

Sorry.

Please forgive my rudeness.

What?

What is this?

Bronze mirror.

Don't move!

Don't move!

Let me untie you.

Keep quiet.

You are here to be sacrificed.

Thank you.

Give me the mirror.

Mirror.

What do you need this mirror for?

The ceremony begins now.

Just get your stuff and go,

we'll be buried later.

We can manage to get out later.

Don't take sacrificial offerings for women only,

take something else.

Where are you?

What are you doing here?

I am here to bring some fruits.

Oh yeah?

Yes!

Wanna try?

They are all fresh picked.

Closing and burying coffin ceremony shall begin now.

Let me out!

Let me out!

You wake up.

Who are you？

Let me out!

Let me out!

Don't you dare to say nothing!

I am taking you to the coffin!

Let me out!

Let me out!

Let me out!

Who is this!

The dying man come to find the man who wants to die.

Hey,

How you dare to stop our coffin?

We're doing underground business.

This coffin is ours.

If you want the coffin, you will be buried with the dead.

Please, don't.

Your fate is as chaos.

You have extremely unlucky life.

Stay away from the coffin.

Laodao.

Let's check if that's who we are looking for in the coffin.

Looks good, tough guy.

You are the one who can be the leader.

Back off.

You have ignored me for 15 years, now you are caring about me.

Zhe Gushao, nonsense.

How dare you talk to our patriarch like that!

Oh right,

it's tough to be the patriarch.

All of you, be careful!

Don't get tripped by him.

Nearly 15 years have passed.

Nearly 15 years have passed,

Miasma reappears.

We are going to find the Muchenzhu.

Behave yourself.

Finding the Muchenzhu for what?

Isn't for saving lives?

Turns out

more people died.

What have you found?

What are you talking about?

You were not the only one who lost relatives15 years ago.

Right,

so what?

More people die, much happier you will be,

with more pride.

Bastard.

Your father. I know.

My father,

also wish me to live a good life.

Longevity lock.

How dare you let free the sacrificial offerings!

Do you know who our patriarch is?

We are close to Lord Ma of Guanshan.

We are on our way to meet him!

Don't scare me with the three-eyed Ma.

He's just got an eye for searching a grave.

Where is my dad?

This is...

the longevity lock he left you.

Where is my dad?

Where is him?

May I know who you are?

All of us are Lord Ma's friends, we went through fire and water.

We've heard that he would have birthday banquet today,

we are here to congratulate.

Our master is under the weather,

we would like to keep it low-key.

We don't play host today.

Please tell Lord Ma,

I'm Shao Ling of Banshan.

The friendship that has been built underground,

we kept it in mind.

I'll let him know right now.

But,

our master came down with illness.

Hope you can come back few days later.

We would like to wait for him here.

Wait a moment.

Childe.

Shao Ling of Banshan,

with a group of people,

insists on meeting you.

What are they here for?

All comers could be our guests.

Let them in.

Don't bother.

We are here to celebrate Lord Ma's birthday.

You must be uncle Shao of Banshan.

We don't mean to be impolite.

It's not the right time.

My father just passed away.

Your father did have a deal with us.

We need to meet him in person

no matter alive or dead.

Uncle Shao.

Don't embarrass me please.

There are tables with food in the front courtyard,

without seats or chopsticks.

I'm afraid that we are not welcomed here.

No one asks you to stay.

I told you don't come,

no one takes my words.

When we were in the tomb together,

my brother traded his own life

for my life and your father's.

He said

he would account for that.

Yes, yes, we will.

We can talk about it in a decent way.

Uncle.

This promise I made,

are you satisfied with?

Set my men free.

The thing brought by Lord Ma from the tomb,

let me take a look, then I'll leave.

Otherwise,

I can only sacrifice you today.

Ouch, ouch, ouch.

Ouch, ouch, ouch.

Nobody moves.

Calm down, please.

My father said that

no one can ruin the family Ma's geomancy!

What are you doing?

Brother!

Sacrifice you

in exchange for the safeness and wealthiness of the family Ma!

Ma Er!

What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to betray me?

I am sorry.

If you shoot me today,

no one would know where my father has been buried at.

Move, move, move!

Drop it, now!

Don't resist.

Drop the rifle!

Freeze!

Drop the rifle!

Uncle.

This is the worst gang of bandits recently.

Anything happens between us can be discussed tomorrow.

How about dealing with this today?

Put down.

Put down.

Hurry up!

Hurry!

We have been defeated recently,

suffered heavy casualties.

Seems that we had come to the end.

Luckily Lord Ma showed his mercy,

turned things around.

He told our boss that

feel free to take anything you need.

If you need,

I will be bound to help.

Then we'll take it.

It is all right.

Get down.

Lord Zhang, Lord Zhang, Lord Zhang, Zhang...

My bother!

I didn't attend your funeral because of the battle.

I shouldn't do that.

Now the birthday banquet turned into a funeral.

You shall rest assured,

as your brother, I will use your legacy wisely

to avenge!

Can anyone,

tell me

who is our enemy?

I will definitely kill him

revenge for my brother Ma.

Lord Zhang.

It's just a misunderstanding.

A big mistake.

My father, passed away in bed peacefully.

It has been blessed.

Of course,

I won't let you leave here without anything.

Ma Liu! Hurry up!

May the gold will show our respects.

Those servants know nothing about the rules.

Don't take it seriously please.

So naive.

Look how my brother Ma's wealthy properties

with such little left now?

Tell me,

Where has Ma

been buried?

I want to burn one incense to pray for him.

How to sharp observation. My father hasn't come back yet since the digging.

Why the door of backyard is closed?

It seems that someone is lying.

Go, go!

General！

Don't go in there!

Please don't, general!

Don't go in there!

General.

You see,

we are all Buddhists,

and have been invited to conduct a rite for Lord Ma.

Since you and Childe Ma

have something to discuss,

we shall leave now.

We are leaving soon.

Freeze!

Everyone!

Guard the door carefully .

No one could leave today.

General,

our men who entered the room,

have no response.

Show me the way.

Go, go, go!

Move! Now!

You talked too much.

If I don't say so,

will you be able to meet Lord Ma?

Hurry up!

Grave robbers worship Zhong Kui,

the hen show respect to the weasel.

General,

our men are missing.

I don't know, I truly don't know.

Only someone comes to this room for burning incense or lighting candles,

no one else would come.

What's going on?

Come over here! Hurry up!

General!

General, it is full of paper.

Wuchang incense.

It seems that Lord Ma did this.

He was afraid of his enemies finding his place,

he set this up before.

Even he was dead, still make trouble.

Hold on,

illusion appears,

Lord Ma will show up soon.

When the illusion disappears,

we'll have no chance to find him.

Someone is over there!

This is the gate of death.

It is on the direction Kangong, which is an ominous sign.

If you encounter that when building or repairing something, you will be in trouble.

I have never seen anyone would place statue of Zhong Kui at this position.

Smash it.

Once it was smashed, all ghosts shall come out immediately.

Don't do that please.

Smash it!

Lord Zhang!

Lord Zhang, Lord Zhang. You can't destroy it, Lord Zhang.

This is the important location of the family Ma's geomancy.

Please, don't do that. Nebbish!

Please don't!

Lord Zhang!

Come back here!

Please, don't do that.

General.

Is this the Lord Ma's treasure?

General, Ha Ma is dead.

Dig it.

Dig! Dig! Dig!

Go dig it!

This room made of paper is supposed to be graveyard for the dead,

but it is spacious.

There are mountains in the south and rivers in the north.

Higher mountains let more amount of water come.

It's supposed to be a place of wealth.

And,

Lord Ma has been buried at the position of the gate of life.

General,

something is down there.

See?

The corpse has been hanged upside down.

The way of burial avoided the corpse turning into zombie.

He wanted to seal the gate of life.

Keep digging! Dig it up!

Dig it up! Hurry up!

Good words can't persuade the ghost on the way to its death.

We shall be careful.

There is a strange worm.

They will take over a person's body

then control the body.

The larvae were nursed by burying down and laying eggs.

Is he really dead?

General, there are no grave goods here.

No.

We are the grave goods.

They came out! They came out.

They came out!

You son of bitch

You wanna trap us by Wuchang incense.

But we found out Lord Ma anyway.

Tell us.

Where is the entrance of the tomb?

Say it!

If you are infected by the poisonous insect

you will turn to be exactly the same as Lord Ma.

Take the bronze mirror.

Bronze mirror.

This eye

could mirror the last scene of the host alive.

It seems the poisonous insect infected Lord Ma.

The insect will witness what he has seen.

If I am right,

the monster in this mirror must be the turn-undead envoy of the Bone Clan.

Flying Dwarf.

He saw the Muchenzhu.

Now you believe in me.

If you still say nothing,

not only the Ma's geomancy will no longer exists,

all of us will die here.

Forty miles away from the west of the town,

in the black dog miasma grove.

My dad

has been cracked since back from the tomb.

The witch said that he was possessed by something evil,

we have to bury him alive in a vertical way to bless the geomancy.

Great.

Now we know where to find the tomb.

Let's hit the road.

It's a dark and windy night,

all ghosts shall wander around.

There are a lot of zombies like this one down in the tomb.

If we want to go there tonight, hurry up.

See you tomorrow.

See you.

We'll go tomorrow.

Keep the safety pin.

If you go there today,

your bodies will be blown up to pieces.

When I have the Muchenzhu and the treatures in the grave,

I could appeal a team together again,

and recover my emperor.

[00:00:-01.-01]Noticing a pile of white bones,[00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]lying on the barren earth mound soundlessly, [00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]it is freezing and wind blows dead leaves which brings more melancholy.[00:00:-01.-01]

Playboy,

how dare you touch my hands.

What should I do?

If we all be blown up into dust,

how can we find the Muchenzhu?

Let me make this clear,

our leader can tolerate you,

but I can't.

General.

They all escaped through the cave.

Miss disappeared too.

Go, go!

Someone is in there.

Get out.

Tell me.

Who sent you here?

Definitely her brother.

We can't keep her with us.

Zhang Lijin is not my brother.

He is not my brother.

I was sold to him by the traffickers.

Then why are you following us?

I've got incurable disease since I was little.

Just like you,

I am a living dead who is waiting to die.

I also wanna seek the tomb of the Bone Clan

for the Muchenzhu to save my life.

We can't take care of you in the tomb.

Remember,

We came here to find the Muchenzhu

to save our lives.

Find the way to cure it then leave.

Never not touch anything else here.

My dad used to tell me.

As long as we are together, we will break the curse.

As long as we are together, we will survive in the end.

Lord Ma

must go down from here.

My dad also said that

if he didn't come up from the grave,

don't go back looking for him.

No need to pick them up.

No.

Losing money is ominous when we are out.

Not to mention there are ancient coins.

These crocks are full of ashes.

With unlucky implication,

don't touch the coins.

Are you ok?

Still alive.

These bugs are burrowing earth scorpions.

They live in cremains.

Their shell is already fused to the jar.

These bugs are extremely poisonous.

Be careful.

It feeds on human remains,

also likes dark places while living on the blood.

I didn't know they could grow so big

just eating ashes from crock.

Run!

Run! Run！

Come on!

This way, hurry up!

Hurry! This way!

Come on!

Laodao!

Move!

Move!

Move!

Hurry up!

Hurry! Close the gate!

General.

The fog is too thick to find the entrance of the tomb.

We can't even make out of here.

Keep trying.

Look around again.

Your father's stuff,

you should know how to use it, right?

Come on.

Take me to the right place,

I'll let you back home and continue to be the Childe.

Zhang Lijin.

Not a chance.

You deserve to be the Ma's Childe.

Very impressive.

Do your job.

Dig, dig, dig!

My dad,

died here.

There is no entrance down here.

What was showed in Lord Ma's eye?

The Muchenzhu, you are desperate to find.

Where is it？

You didn't see the Muchenzhu, did you?

I did!

No, you didn't.

What you saw was the same as Lord Ma did,

none of those was real.

I can't do this anymore.

We have to get out.

No one is leaving.

The Muchenzhu is right here.

I can hear another heartbeat.

Not from us.

It is a corpse, isn't it?

Looks like the poisonous insect can be attracted by the most of evil thing.

Is Lord Ma

a ghost from the underworld?

The Muchenzhu,

is right inside.

The Muchenzhu,

is my precious.

Give it back to me!

Let me handle him.

Is the dwarf a man or a ghost?

A man,of course.

Not corroded by poisonous insects,

I'm handsome, too.

Who did you say had taken the Muchenzhu?

It was him, wasn't it?

How did you get out?

No.

You are younger than him.

Definitely it wasn't you.

It was my father.

So many people here.

Aura of the living is so strong.

It is so hot.

Tell me!

Where is he?

Down, down there.

He is down there.

Only if you help us to find the Muchenzhu,

I'll take you out of here.

Brother,

are we really supposed to trust this ghostlike stuff?

I only want to find the Muchenzhu.

Tell me!

All roads can lead to the destination.

Even there is only one person can find the Muchenzhu in the end,

our people will be saved.

Let's go down separately.

Get the Muchenzhu.

Return to the Bone Clan.

To solve the curse.

Let's go.

(The feather of phoenix fell and became the Muchen, which blesses the Bone Clan eternally.)

No, we can't go inside.

Yanzhen.

Yanzhen.

Li Yu!

Li Yu!

Li Yu!

Fang Jin!

Li Yu!

Can you hear me?

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Why don't you speak?

Is it because you are afraid?

You are such a tough guy, what are you afraid of?

You are afraid of you can't find the Muchenzhu.

Shut up!

Stop making nonsense,

or I'll leave you here.

I've been here the whole time.

It is all right to be left here.

You should think more about yourselves.

Would you guys be able to leave here?

Hush.

Be careful of the coffin monster.

Dad.

Dad.

It has been fifteen years.

Fifteen years.

You have grown stronger,

and taller.

What's wrong?

Let's go.

I'll take you to get the Muchenzhu.

Dad.

Is the Muchenzhu right here？

Yes, yes, yes.

Thanks to the Muchenzhu in the past fifteen years,

otherwise, I would be dead already.

Don't waste the time.

The miasma still exists,

let me take you to find it.

Follow me.

Where are my pals?

You tell me.

Where are them?

Where are them?

Your pals.

You are looking for the things don't exist,

you will be trapped in this hell.

Poor you.

Actually, you already knew

that bead doesn't exist.

Because of the curse,

you are doomed to die.

I will still take you to where you should be.

Yanzhen！

Are you alright?

Follow me.

Brother.

Brother.

Help me!

Brother.

It was you took me down to the tomb to find the Muchenzhu.

Brother.

Shouldn't we live or die together?

Why you abandoned me?

No, I didn't.

I am taking you to leave here now.

Brother.

Why you were the only one survived?

Why Brother Yang didn't come to save me?

Why he left the lock to you?

Did I die for nothing?

You were wrong at that night.

You didn't find the Muchenzhu.

I did see it!

I saw it!

No, you didn't.

I did see it! You didn't.

You didn't find it.

You didn't.

Dad!

Dad!

I heard Uncle Shao's voice.

Leave them alone.

We shall find the Muchenzhu first.

Dad!

We are running out of time.

Let me make this clear, Zhe Gushao.

Keep it in your mind.

On the way to find the Muchenzhu,

someone stays alive,

then someone will lose their lives.

Stop it, let's go.

Dad.

Zhe Gushao.

This name is chosen by myself.

So what?

After you left,

I chose it by myself.

Stop it.

Come with me now.

Come on, come on, come on.

Move!

You...

Dad,

I'm so happy

to see you again.

But you are not my father.

It has been fifteen years.

Fifteen years.

I've been waiting for...

Is this what I've been expecting for?

I'm sorry.

Flying Dwarf.

Uncle Shao.

Are you ok?

Are you ok?

Where is Fang Jin and Laodao?

Go find them.

I didn't expect,

Mowuliang is Flying Dwarf.

Since we brought him with us,

strange things increasingly appeared.

Must his sweat cause the hallucination.

Kill him,

then the hallucination should disappear.

Brother Shao!

Before we went down to here,

Liu Laodao died as well.

Flying Dwarf died already.

We need to find the gate of life ASAP.

We can't look for that gate.

Everything in the tomb at present,

is for the tomb owner to be buried with.

Every downward pass is at the gate of death.

So

the right way should be at the gate of death.

Gate of death

should be on the direction of Kun in the southwest.

Dare to die,

then we'll have chance to live.

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

This is

the statue of Dabayin Goddess.

Is the Muchenzhu right in the coffin?

Blow of the mountain when it is in the way,

search for the road when road awaits.

Take the Muchenzhu first.

Watch out!

Watch out!

Uncle Shao.

Take the Muchenzhu to save our men.

Even only one breath has been saved,

Banshan can remain.

Uncle Shao!

Brother Shao!

We

must

unwound the poison.

Let's go.

Finally, I got it.

Using the Muchenzhu

with the Bone ceremony,

we all can survive.

The serious disease I have had since I was little,

was caused by the chronic toxin set by the Bone Clan.

If there is no solution,

I will end up like Flying Dwarf sooner or later.

Neither a human nor a ghost.

I don't like that.

I ran out of there.

I want to find the Muchenzhu to save my life.

But why did I meet up Zhang Lijin？

I did everything I could just to stay alive.

But why did I find nothing?

No way.

We found it. It is right here!

I found it!

Can the Muchenzhu save my life?

Sure.

[00:00:-01.-01]You shall have countless time after death.[00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]Don't feel lonely, wandering soul,[00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]you shall have happiness and longevity after death.[00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]Don't be panic, wandering soul,[00:00:-01.-01] [00:00:-01.-01]you shall have countless time after death.[00:00:-01.-01]

Zhe Gushao.

What are you thinking about? We are running out of time!

That's not right.

We traded our lives for you to come back.

What are you hesitating about?

That's not right.

Do you want all of us die in vain?

No.

That's not right.

Zhe Gushao.

That's not right.

In the freamland lust for eternal life,

which is not our belief.

No.

These are not really.

No.

We sacrificed ourselves.

Why are you hesitating?

It's wrong.

Zhe Gushao.

Are you willing to make

eternal covenant?

Save me.

You will save me, won't you?

Zhe Gushao.

You will save me, won't you?

Save me.

What are you thinking about?

Zhe Gushao.

Save me.

Save me.

Help me. Zhe Gushao.

Help me. Zhe Gushao.

Save me.

Zhe Gushao.

Zhe Gushao. Save me, save me.

Save me.

The mandala in the Muchenzhu

can reverse life and death in our mind.

Stay in this world

where everyone is alive, is it not a good thing for us?

You are back.

Who are you?

Who am I?

I don't even remember.

I could be bandit's daughter,

Zhang Lijin's plaything,

a puppet controlled by the Bone clan,

or

Dabayin Goddess.

Who the hell are you?

The Bone Clan have precious bead which can bring dead back to life.

Because of the Muchenzhu,

I am back to this forbidden place.

How could she command the serpent?

While finding the bead,

I was caught to be sacrificed for the closing and burying coffin ceremony.

These are not really.

This is the Chidanzhu's ability to repel snakes and insects.

Think of it now,

it was the Muchenzhu

that made us meet each other.

It should be

our destiny and fate.

But I have never expected that

the stone tablet of the Bone Clan recorded that Muchenzhu

has already disappeared.

the Chidanzhu that can cause the hallucination.

If you are manipulated by the toxin,

you will be more dead than alive,

turn to be such horrible appearance,

only linger in this darkest place.

I have already made my plan

to stay in the tomb alone forever.

Until,

I encountered you.

Run!

Let's be immortal together!

Run!

Run!

Zhe Gushao!

Don't be stupid.

Put down the Chidanzhu.

They are all just the hallucinations created by the Chidanzhu.

For those dead people,

is it fair enough?

They

definitely were not for themselves

to find

the Muchenzhu.

Zhe Gushao!

Come with us.

I'm not leaving.

Without the Chidanzhu,

I would die in few days.

With the Chidanzhu,

I can survive.

Zhe Gushao.

I can thrive in the fantasy.

Even only one breath has been saved,

Banshan remained.

Come and stay alive with me together.

Why?

I just want to live.

Only keep finding

can bring more hope.

I am not leaving.

Now my looks

has no difference to Flying Dwarf.

Take yourselves off.

Go.

Hurry up.

The door is closing.

Now!

I will

keep finding.

Uncle, did Banshan find the Muchenzhu?

They'll find it.

The Muchenzhu must be somewhere, waiting for them.

The story you told us was true or not?

It was unreal.

How can someone grow on the coffin, right?

Right.

Boring.

Alright, chicos,

go to school now.

Go, go.

Excuse me, sir.

Don't worry, they are just kids.

How much for those?

It's on me.

It's a cool story.

Have some tea please.

Thank you.

Let's go.

I've thought that even only one breath has been saved, Banshan remained

is a joke.

All the suffering way,

everyone tried to keep our alive,

spared no efforts to seek the Muchenzhu.

I decide I want to be like them.

As long as I'm alive,

I will keep looking for it.

As long as we keep working hard,

Banshan will achieve the glory.
