MOUNT WUDANG

Tai Chi

is a beautiful martial art

that combines self-defense and health benefits.

It emphasizes the harmony of softness and strength,

and the integration of movement and stillness.

It doesn't only strengthen your body,

it also improves your temperament.

The key is that we must practice diligently

to understand its mysteries.

As you progress in your training,

you will advance in skill.

Get up, you rascal.

Hurry up and practice.

If the grandmaster sees how lazy you are,

he'll expel you from the sect!

Fine.

Wang Ye, where are you going?

I'm aware of my wrongdoings.

I'm going to see Grandmaster for forgiveness.

Wang Ye, what brings you here?

Grandmaster,

your hearing is sharper than ever.

You knew it was me from my footsteps.

I have something serious to ask you.

Do you think

a person

can be passively pulled into a phantasmagoria?

ZHOU MENG, LEADER OF WUDANG SECT

Passively?

I mean that they didn't even intentionally initiate it

but involuntarily entered the phantasmagoria.

Phantasmagoria arises from thoughts.

There must be a cause for there to be an effect.

But not all causes

are within your consciousness.

And "thoughts"

don't solely refer to the ones in your mind.

Everything in the world can be one thought.

Everything in the world can be a cause.

They all have the potential to evoke your phantasmagoria.

The thoughts in our minds

are about past events.

YEAR OF JIASHEN

Past causes can trigger present effects.

And present events

can also bring about future consequences.

Doesn't that mean we can predict the future?

Grandmaster,

did you ever travel by train

in the Year of Jiashen?

-Come out! Show yourself, Zhang Chulan! -Come out!

-Do you hear me? -What outrageous behavior is this?

Who do you think you are?

Mr. Zhang,

I can't let your grandson, Zhang Chulan,

hit my son, Hu, like this for nothing!

Look at my son, Gou.

Just look at what he did to him.

And look at my son.

His hair is smoking from being hit.

It was a fight. Why did you shock him?

-But Grandpa, they... -Shut up!

Dear villagers.

ZHANG CHULAN (AGE EIGHT), ZHANG XILIN

I'm truly sorry.

It's indeed Chulan's fault in this matter.

Well, I promise to compensate you

for your children's injuries.

Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the city

to borrow money from my relatives.

Once I have the money,

I'll rush back

and personally deliver it to each of you.

Is this okay?

-Save it! -Borrow money from relatives?

You can't even find your own son.

Zhang Chulan is also a fatherless child.

-Come back! -Look at him!

-He is so unruly! -He has no manners at all!

Please rest assured.

Even if I have to sell everything

or borrow from loan sharks,

I'll definitely compensate all of you.

-No! -Pay up now!

-Pay up now! -Pay up now!

-Pay up now! -Pay up now!

-Pay up now! -Please believe me!

What do I usually tell you?

What should you do

when someone bullies you?

Endure it.

Did you do it?

-But Grandpa... -No buts!

Grandpa, I really can't take it.

You have to even if you can't.

Let it go.

-Grandpa, why did you do that? -It hurts, right?

The next time you can't endure it,

flick yourself several times.

When it doesn't hurt anymore

that means you have endured it.

PATIENCE

You did a good job by standing up for Yu.

But you still got into a fight.

Now, we have to move again.

Chulan, hang in there a little longer.

When we reach our new home,

I'll make you delicious braised pork knuckles.

I don't want to eat. I'm not hungry.

Don't be mad at me.

Grandpa,

do I have a dad?

I'm sure you must be wondering

when your dad will come to fetch you

because I was harsh on you.

Where on earth is he anyway?

I've never even met him.

When you've grown up,

your dad will come for you.

Grandpa,

ever since I was little,

we have always moved whenever I got into a fight.

Why is that?

It's hard to explain it to you now.

When you grow up,

I will tell you everything.

Grandpa,

should I help others or not?

You should.

But you also shouldn't.

You can decide for yourself

when you grow up.

When we reach our new home,

I'll find you a good school.

You'll study hard,

go to high school, and attend university.

After graduating, find a good job,

and then find a girl who loves and cares for you.

Then get married, build a family,

and live a peaceful life like ordinary people.

I'm getting old.

I don't know how many more years

I can still stay by your side.

That's it.

That's the way to do it.

No matter what difficulties you face,

you must hang in there.

Don't despair.

Be patient.

You have to be patient.

On the night of a full moon, a mysterious Bum-naked Hero appeared

with snow-white butt cheeks!

BUM-NAKED HERO

My fellow mates, let's get him!

Find out who this is.

His physique looks pretty decent.

I think I've seen this guy before.

Heavens! I can't bear to look at it!

My eyes!

If you see this Bum-naked Hero under the full moon,

you'll meet your true love.

True love?

This is shocking.

That snow-white buttock is the shining beacon of hope

for us single folks.

Look, my angel is actually out and about with bandages.

What a dedicated effort to spread love.

It must be true. Our true love depends entirely on him.

That was you, right?

Is your arm better now?

I'm in good health.

Who did it?

It was me.

Do you have a problem with that?

No.

Just be careful next time.

Excuse me.

Pick up the ball, will you?

PATIENCE

PATIENCE

PATIENCE

You sounded cocky earlier.

Luckily, you are

pretty thick-skinned.

You're back early.

I didn't see him all day.

I think he's already asleep.

-Should we invite him online later? -No.

He's odd and antisocial.

He even sneaks to the toilet to avoid us.

He doesn't have a single friend.

Listen, don't bother with this unlucky guy.

Nothing good ever happens.

Chulan.

Have you been feeling unlucky?

Everything seems to be going wrong lately, right?

-No. -No?

Take this.

Look at you pouting your lips.

A soy sauce bottle could hang there.

Do you think I didn't notice?

Listen.

Fate is predestined.

It's beyond your control.

No one can change it.

But luck

is different.

Look at these.

These peaks represent hardships in life.

We may not know

where they will turn in the end.

But wave after wave,

they go up and down.

This shows that when you are at your unluckiest time,

you must hang in there.

It's during this persistence

that your luck

often starts to rise.

CUTE MASTER

LOADING

CUTE MASTER

She's actually beautiful.

She's really a beauty!

YANYAN, YOUR PROFILE PICTURE IS SO CUTE

CHULAN, LET'S MEET UP TOMORROW

I CAN TEACH YOU HOW TO SKATE

Grandpa was right.

After a streak of bad luck,

good things do come.

I must do my best tomorrow evening.

It's settled then.

Yanyan,

see you tomorrow.

YANYAN, SEE YOU TOMORROW

Students,

today we're going to talk

about divination.

The art of divination

requires adaptability.

Adaptability...

I've been looking for you all morning.

Why are you attending the Classical Chinese Studies lecture?

Listen, I'm going out for a while.

I'll be back at night. Then you'll come with me to see someone.

I can't, Ms. Bao.

I'm busy today.

Master,

I am really busy today.

Wait for my call tonight.

DO YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT I LOOK LIKE?

SURE

CUTE MASTER

It's just a simple meeting with an online friend.

Don't be nervous.

Stay calm.

Hey, Chulan.

Who are you?

It's me, Liu Yanyan.

You look even better in person than in the video.

You can call me Yanyan.

That sounds more familiar.

I already spotted you

when I was at the corner.

Do we know each other before?

Yes, I noticed you

at the freshman registration office.

Are we in the same university?

That's impossible!

I would have known

if our school had such a pretty girl.

Let me show you something.

I dress very inconspicuously on campus.

It's normal

that you didn't notice me.

People are like that,

always wearing masks,

moving back and forth,

thinking they can fool everyone.

But deep down,

only we know ourselves the best,

right?

He thought I couldn't track him

if he turned off his phone.

But we had the tech department

install a tracker on his phone.

Don't worry. We won't lose him.

But I never expected Zhang Chulan

to have the guts to stand you up.

He's quite courageous.

He doesn't have the guts to do that.

Are you saying someone else got to him?

We'll know after we find him.

Today,

I'll use

some "husband-taming" skills on him.

"Husband-taming"?

Hold it. What nonsense did Xu Si teach you now?

Xu Si said

"husband-taming" is a supreme art

that every independent woman must master.

It has a crucial effect

on her future life.

What?

It means to be an independent woman.

I didn't know you had such a big appetite.

It's because I raise worms in my body.

So I don't get full no matter how much I eat.

Did you actually believe that, Chulan?

You're too adorable.

Just an average amount.

I'll go and pay the bill first.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

MASTER

REPLY WITHIN THREE MINUTES

MASTER

THREE MINUTES ARE UP. YOU'RE DEAD.

MASTER

PREPARE TO BE BURIED TONIGHT

Who are you texting?

No one.

I wasn't texting anyone.

Then...

Could it be your girlfriend checking up on you?

I don't have a girlfriend.

Really?

Yes.

Why would I lie to you?

That's fortunate to hear.

I don't have a boyfriend either.

Chulan,

I was quite happy when you said

you don't have a girlfriend.

I'll go faster, okay?

Okay.

Chulan, you're great at this.

Where's my grandfather's body?

When did you find out?

I looked you up in the Classical Chinese Studies Dept.,

but your name wasn't listed.

I started to be suspicious then.

My mind was telling me

that a romantic encounter out of nowhere

would never happen to me!

And guess what? It was a plot!

One can never truly hide their true colors.

So tell me.

What's your purpose?

Bring him here,

dead or alive.

And then, you'll be one of us.

What the heck?

Did you even gather help?

LIU YANYAN, THRALL MASTER OF XIANGXI

Who are you trying to scare with those masks?

Do you think I'm a pushover

that anyone can push around?

What's happening?

How did you control...

They've made their move.

I heard there are mysterious people infiltrating this city.

It looks like the news is true.

Do you mean those from Sinister Pleasure?

Don't be careless.

They're not small fries this time.

Get ready to work.

Excuse me. Where is this place?

Sure enough,

you're the descendant of that respected senior.

It's the same power.

Even though it's sealed,

I can still feel

the immense power within you.

Is this a seal?

I never expected Zhang Xilin would come up with this move.

Not a bit of his primordial energy has leaked out.

Xia He,

you're not planning to do it here, are you?

At least let me do what I need.

After that,

he's all yours.

Then you had better be quick

and don't ruin him.

I'll begin, then.

What are you doing?

We just want to search for something.

Like what?

Your memory, of course.

Memories?

What kind of memories?

Every memory of your grandfather.

I will decide if you know.

How do you decide that?

Allow me to introduce myself.

I'm Lyu Liang from Sinister Pleasure.

I can directly inquire and examine

one's primordial spirit.

I won't extract all of your primordial spirit.

I only need to grasp certain parts of your memories.

Relax a bit.

It'll be over soon.

I've brought Zhang Chulan here.

Isn't it time to fulfill your promise?

Can I join you now?

Congratulations.

From now on, you're a member of Sinister Pleasure.

Is it that simple?

Isn't there an initiation ceremony,

symbols, or things like tattoos?

No need for all that trouble.

You only need to publicly declare that you're a part of Sinister Pleasure.

Then why did you make me do so much?

Are you messing with me?

Just as you said,

Sinister Pleasure is a sect with character.

Having no rules is the biggest rule.

Xu San.

Feng Baobao.

You're early for the party.

Baobao, this won't be easy.

We brought too few people this time.

It's not just Lyu Liang.

Even Bone Scraper Xia He

and the Thrall Master of Xiangxi are here.

No problem.

I will get rid of them.

Xu San,

your telekinetic power has become stronger.

I've been wanting to have fun with you for a while.

Of course,

it's better to do it in a room.

Today, I don't want to fight you.

Hand over Zhang Chulan,

and you can leave.

You wish.

Take Zhang Chulan away.

His memories haven't been extracted yet.

I'm new to Sinister Pleasure.

Let me give you a gift.

Again?

Baobao,

don't underestimate her.

She's Bone Scraper Xia He.

She can awaken people's primal desires and lead them into constant indulgence.

Sinister Pleasure manipulates people's hearts.

SINISTER PLEASURE

Sinister Pleasure.

NO RULES, NO PRINCIPLES

That was a quick reflex.

But unfortunately, you're still no match for me.

Xia He, you're amazing.

Sinister Pleasure

is indeed cool and has character.

Of course.

She's one of the Four Crazies of Sinister Pleasure,

Bone Scraper Xia He.

Put me down.

Okay.

But don't charge again.

Which one of you has never eaten coriander in your life?

Didn't I say to wait for my message?

Intercom interference.

You guys can carry on.

Stop right there.

Xu San,

did you call him here?

That's right.

Since we got Zhang Chulan back,

the agreement for today is void.

We, NDT Express, must take all of you with us.

XU SAN, EXECUTIVE SECRETARY TO THE GM OF THE LUBEI REGION

-With NDT Express, -With NDT Express,

-life is easier! -life is easier!

Mr. Lyu Liang!

-Ms. Xia He! -Ms. Xia He!

-Your delivery! -Your delivery!

They're so committed.

NDT EXPRESS OUTSIDER MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION

SAFEGUARDS THE OUTSIDERS' WORLD STABILITY

AND ERADICATES EVIL FORCES AMONG THEM

Do you want to catch us? It won't be that easy.

We must take Zhang Chulan with us today.

Groundhog, go and snatch Zhang Chulan!

-Baobao. -Ms. Bao, help!

Who messed with my plan?

Yoyo ball!

Lyu Liang.

They went to the roller coaster area.

Knock them down!

Xu San, catch him.

Don't sway about!

It's soft.

What kind of superpower can make it explode?

Run!

Xu San?

BONE SCRAPER

Xu San,

you took a blow from my bone-scraping technique.

Let's see how you handle it.

Are you okay?

Back off!

I might turn dangerous later.

So this is the bone-scraping technique.

Zhang Chulan.

Ms. Bao, help!

Retreat!

Can't I choose my own path?

Can I wear a seat belt?

You're not even fastening it properly.

Let's go.

I told you wearing a seat belt is important.

Lyu Liang, save me!

I'm a member of Sinister Pleasure too!

So what? You don't even know what Sinister Pleasure is.

POWER SUPPRESSION ELIZABETHAN COLLAR

Ms. Bao, you're finally here.

You didn't answer my call.

Ms. Bao.

Ms. Bao! I'm sorry!

Ms. Bao! No, Ms. Bao!

Ms. Bao, don't kill me!

Ms. Bao!

XU SI, ASSISTANT TO THE GM OF THE LUBEI REGION

Xu Si, your antidote didn't work.

That's because his dosage was too small.

Xu San,

I've told you

that Xia He is not easy to handle

and not to take her lightly.

Do you understand? Will you listen to me now?

My grandfather said luck comes and goes.

When things hit rock bottom, they will eventually get better.

It was a lie.

I have no luck.

Things only get worse.

No one is interested in me.

That Liu Yanyan.

I knew her identity was fake,

but I was still hopeful!

Do you feel despair for this reason?

No need for that.

Because no one's luck stays bad forever.

Ms. Bao,

you're actually comforting me.

I used to think you were creepy

and sometimes even crazy.

I never expected you to be a good person.

Your bad luck

is not because of bad luck itself,

but because you're an idiot.

Put him down.

How stupid can you be to believe that some girl

would throw herself at someone like you?

Look at your unlucky face

and cheap clothes worth only 200 yuan.

If strangers come up to you,

they must be after something.

You're utterly worthless.

Do you really think you're precious?

How about now? Do you feel comforted?

Don't play dead. Get up.

But

this is a courier company.

NDT EXPRESS

Get up. I'm taking you to meet someone.

XU XIANG, GENERAL MANAGER OF THE LUBEI REGION

Zhang Chulan.

What do you guys do?

We are, in fact,

a special management organization for Outsiders,

operating under the guise of a courier company.

Come with me.

And what about my abductors?

Who are they?

Sinister Pleasure.

Just like us,

they are also Outsiders with superpowers.

But they are also different from us.

As Outsiders,

they're not willing to take any responsibilities.

Responsibilities?

Outsiders have a bit more power than ordinary people,

and thus a bit more responsibility.

They only care about themselves.

But as Outsiders,

we must adhere to the principle of not affecting ordinary people.

We must guard against those who abuse their Outsider abilities

and believe themselves superior to ordinary people,

just like Sinister Pleasure.

We must make the greatest effort

to maintain stability in the Outsiders' world.

As an Outsiders management organization,

we may appear to be delivery couriers,

but in reality, we're responsible

for dealing with troublemakers among the Outsiders.

Our most important mission

is to protect the ordinary people's world

from being affected by Outsiders

and to prevent any harm to this world.

"In poverty, focus on self-improvement.

In prosperity, help the world."

To be able to uphold the current state

of peaceful harmony day after day

is the ultimate purpose of NDT Express.

That is so complicated.

Safety first.

Come with me, Chulan.

I'll show you around inside.

Ms. Bao, aren't you coming?

Welcome to the new world.

NDT EXPRESS
