14

Excuse me, please let me through.

15

Sir, what happened here?

16

You're Mister Xu?

17

Will you please tell your sister not to worry.

18

There's been a homicide at Drunken Immortal Inn. Constable Li is investigating the case.

19

Has the culprit been discovered?

20

Constable Li thinks that the culprit is still inside, so he has sealed off Drunken Immortal Inn.

21

No one can leave until the murderer is identified

22

Just that... only innocent people

23

They naturally wouldn't want to wait here.

24

Exactly! They're already making a ruckus inside.

25

I'm afraid that he'll incur some trouble.

26

If it's about an aggrieved ghost demanding lives,

27

then I have an idea.

28

Sir, please come closer.

29

Big brother,...

30

Who was that?

31

Good! Everyone!

32

Everyone, please rest assured. As long as you cooperate with me,

33

I will find the culprit quickly.

34

-What are they doing?

--Why are they moving Lord Guan (General Guan Yu from Late Han Dynasty revered as a saint)

35

Sir, what in the world are you trying to do?

36

You can't be thinking of having Lord Guan solve this case, are you?

37

Wow, you really guessed correctly!

38

What kind of a joke is this?

39

Lord Guan is loyal and righteous.

40

We had just asked Lord Guan to place a spell on this incense burner.

41

The real culprit only has to place their hand inside,

42

and the hand will immediately turn black. How about trying it?

43

Place your hand in the middle of the incense burner.

44

-So can we leave as soon as we tried it?

-Of course.

45

I'll go first.

46

Please.

47

How about it, everyone? Give it a try.

48

Miss HeXin, you're in a rush to leave, right? Go on, please.

49

Sir.

50

Everyone saw it already. It didn't turn black. We can leave now, right?

51

Someone come! Arrest her!

52

-Yes!

-Hey, what are they doing? Exactly!

53

Wait, hold on! Why are you guys acting recklessly?

54

Miss HeXin's hand didn't turn black. You want to crack the case

55

but, you shouldn't accuse innocent people falsely.

56

Is she really innocent?

57

Your hand is too clean.

58

What's wrong with being too clean?

59

Too clean is even more problematic,

60

Using the incense burner as proof is merely a way to sound things out.

61

As they say, a guilty heart is fearful. If their conscience is clear,

62

they naturally won't hesitate to put their hand in the incense burner.

63

But if they're the culprit, of course they'll be afraid of being found out, so they won't dare to put their hand inside.

64

Therefore, someone with a clean hand

65

is very possibly the culprit.

66

Sir! Sir! I've been wrongly accused!

67

Come. Make way. Make way.

68

Sir Magistrate, why are you here?

69

-Have you found the culprit?

-Yes, sir.

70

Sir Magistrate, I've been wrongly accused. Please, can you speak on my behalf.

71

The culprit that you mentioned is this delicate and pretty girl?

72

Li GongFu, jeez Li Gongfu,

73

Even if you can't find the real culprit,

74

you can't just accuse an good person!

75

Release her!Ev

76

Magistrate.

77

It's that Li GongFu again. Each time, if it wasn't for his obsession for solving cases,

78

my father would have promoted me already.

79

My Lord, I've been locked up here for over two hours already.

80

It's one thing to take advantage of me,

81

but the guests at the Durnken God Inn are all important people.

82

If people were to suspect that QianTang County trials are uncivilized,

83

Then your reputation...

84

will be destroyed by people working under you.

85

My Lord, please be wise. This woman

86

did not pass the incense burner test that I set up.

87

She is very suspicious, My Lord.

88

I've long heard about your tricks.

89

Look at her hands, such delicious skin.

90

Do they look like a pair of murderous hands?

91

My Lord, please be wise. I...

92

Are you done yet?

93

Miss Kexin, don't be afraid. I'm here.

94

No one can falsely blame you.

95

I will take you back to Jun Xin Brothel right now.

96

My Lord, she...

97

Please.

98

For this medicine, boil three bowls into one.

99

Then take it after the meal.

100

- Alright. I'll remember. Thank you.

- You're welcome.

101

Ruyi, let me do the work here. You should rest.

102

You are so busy yourself, why be courteous with me?

103

After all, I am the Elder Miss of Ji Shi Pharmacy.

104

I am just as good as those women who claim they know some medicine.

105

Alright. Then please ask me whenever you run into something you don't know.

106

What do I know? Don't worry.

107

Physician Xu, Physician Xu! My mom's illness is worse. She can't get off the bed today.

108

- That shouldn't be. Did you use my prescription to get the medicine?

- Yes.

109

She has been taking your prescribed medicine for the last two days.

110

But she's even started to have stomach cramps after taking the medicine.

111

Physician Xu, is it possible that there's something wrong with your medicine?

112

Nonsense. How could Ji Shi Pharmacy's medicine have any problems?

113

If you have any doubts, then don't come here.

114

I don't doubt Physician Xu,

115

- but...

- Young man, is that the leftover medicinal brew?

116

Let me see it.

117

It's alright. Your mother has some bloating in the stomach.

118

She just need some medicine to pass the air. Remember,

119

she needs to have some porridge before taking the medicine to coat the stomach.

120

- Thank you, Physician Xu.

- You're welcome.

121

Clerk.

122

Please wait just a while.

123

Ruyi, come with me this way.

124

These patients are so unreasonable. They don't take the medicine following the rules,

125

but they actually say our medicine has problems.

126

Ruyi, how about you go back to reset. We can handle the rest here.

127

I'm not tired.

128

Come.

129

That patient didn't make a mistake in taking the medicine.

130

You actually gave him the wrong medicine.

131

The prescription I gave asked for black dates. They are marinated dates.

132

But you used wild dates in the medicine you put together.

133

That's why she had stomach cramps after taking the medicine on an empty stomach.

134

How would I have know which black dates to use? You didn't specify it in your prescription.

135

Before putting the prescription together, a clerk will review the list of ingredients first.

136

That patient has a weak digestive system.

137

So my prescription is full of ingredients that will strengthen her intestines and warm her stomach.

138

Ruyi, it's a matter of life and death.

139

You cannot treat it like a game.

140

How was I playing at all? I meant well to help you, but you actually blame me.

141

You didn't use to treat me like this.

142

Ruyi, I'll let you be on anything else.

143

But this is a medical facility, you cannot be careless.

144

Alright, you go home first. I'll buy some good snacks for you after I finish here.

145

Forget it. I'm not a three-year-old. You always coax me with this kind of talk.

146

I don't understand it. Why can Bai Suzhen treat patients and save lives,

147

but I can't.

148

Let me ask you. Are you telling me to leave because of that Bai Suzhen?

149

Why do you always mention Miss Bai?

150

Why involve others?

151

You... You still defend her.

152

That woman comes from questionable origin.

153

You let her come in so easily. It took me a great effort to get rid of her clinging.

154

You still look obsessed.

155

What do you mean by getting rid of her clinging. Why did you say to her?

156

What else can I say?

157

Just told her about our relationship, so that she wouldn't covet what doesn't belong to her.

158

Our relationship? What did you tell her?

159

Just telling her the truth.

160

I know your inner thoughts.

161

Even though my father is a little selfish and strict,

162

but we grew up together since childhood.

163

We have deep feelings. Besides...

164

Where are you going?

165

I am busy and need to leave first.

166

But my dad will deduct money from you when your clinic is not finished.

167

If Master asks about it, just let him deduct the money.

168

Brother Han Wen!

169

[ Bai Manor ]

170

Who is knocking? Why don't you let me sleep this early in the morning?

171

Miss Qing, it's already noon.

172

The weather feels chilly.

173

I was in my bed, how could I know it's already noon.

174

What do you want?

175

I'd like to see Miss Bai and return the umbrella.

176

She is not home. Go away.

177

- Where did she go?

- It's none of your business. Who are you to her?

178

Why should I tell you where she went?

179

Sorry, I am too presumptuous.

180

There is a killing in Chang An recently. It's not safe for a woman to be out by herself.

181

I just wanted to remind her to watch her safety.

182

My sister is not alone.

183

Cousin is with her. It's quite safe.

184

If Master Xu really has nothing to do,

185

you can go find your sister Ruyi to spend time with.

186

I need to see her in person. I must explain something important to her.

187

No need!

188

Miss Bai!

189

I have to tell you something important. Please see me!

190

Where are you going?

191

You are going to see him.

192

You've changed your mind?

193

I...

194

The mortals are afraid of demons. They say demons are evil.

195

But I think demons are simpler than humans.

196

We eat out of needs. We love and hate by following instincts.

197

But they are different.

198

Their life only lasts a few decades,

199

so they don't believe in everlasting vow and eternal love.

200

But when a demon is hurt, we are in pain for a long time.

201

Suzhen, I don't want to see you break your heart.

202

Nor do I want to see you wounded.

203

So there are times

204

when it's better to cut it when it should be. Better short pain than long pain.

205

I only want to give him an umbrella.

206

- Miss Bai.

- Physician Xu, your body came from your parents.

207

It's raining and cold, please leave.

208

Miss Bai, please listen to me.

209

Miss Bai, please listen to me.

210

Please give me a chance to explain to you in person.

211

Miss Bai, please open the door.

212

Miss Bai! Miss Bai!

213

[ Bai Manor ]

214

You're finally awake. I was scared.

215

Come, slowly get up.

216

You're such a grow-up now.

217

Why don't you know about taking care of yourself?

218

Didn't you carry an umbrella?

219

Why were you wet all over and passed out on the road?

220

If it weren't for Clockman Zhang who saw you and told the men at the Constanble's,

221

you would have lost your life.

222

Umbrella... Where's my umbrella?

223

I put away your umbrella.

224

Here, take the medicine first.

225

Where are you going?

226

What's the matter?

227

I want to mend the lantern.

228

Han Wen, you haven't even recovered yet.

229

She wouldn't listen to my explanation. I want her to know how I feel.

230

Han Wen, take your medicine.

231

Alright, put it there.

232

- Are you alright?

- I'm fine.

233

Sister, why are you sending off the lanterns here?

234

The moon is full. It's the 15th again.

235

15th. The mortal world is so interesting.

236

The Lantern Festival was so boisterous on the 15th. But on other 15th of the month,

237

But on other 15th of the month, it's cold with nothing happening.

238

What is that saying? Something about same and different?

239

Same scenes but people changed.

240

That's why we demons are more steadfast.

241

Look, there's no such thing as the view remains the same, but spirits have changed, right?

242

This lantern has writing on it.

243

Elder sister, did you make a wish?

244

Let me see.

245

Hope that people will live long.

246

Elder sister, you wrote that wrong.

247

You should write: Hope that spirit will live long.

248

Because only us spirits have deep affections.

249

Take a look, for the Fifteenth of the Month,

250

Only you honors the moon with lantern.

251

Sister, look what that is.

252

There is a painting on that lantern. Also there are words.

253

The writing says, "A blue bird wept once to the dawn, send message quickly."

254

"Gentle yet spectacular pink appearance troubles willow branches." (willows symbolizes parted sorrows)

255

A good scene should be rewarded to my muse.

256

Will enjoy it with you tomorrow morning.

257

What does that mean?

258

He asked me to visit the West Lake tomorrow with him.

259

Him?

260

Do you mean Xu Xian?

261

That Xu Xian is quite cunning.

262

Sister, are you going to meet him?

263

Hope that people will live long.

264

That's a joke, how long does can humans live?

265

Enter.

266

The carriage for returning to Xu is ready.

267

We shall leave tomorrow.

268

Tomorrow, such a rush?

269

The sooner we get back, the more at peace I will feel.

270

But...

271

But what?

272

I need to say farewells.

273

You've only been to Lin-An for short period of time. You don't know that many people.

274

Who do you need to say farewell to?

275

I...I need to tell Xiao Qing.

276

You know Xiao Qing's personality.

277

She will surely throw a tantrum to get you to stay.

278

Better to write her a letter after you return to Ermei.

279

Invite her to Ermei for a visit.

280

What about Sister Xu? I should let her know.

281

Then I will accompany you to say goodbyes. We'll leave as soon as it is done.

282

Also the neighbors at Quyuan Alley.

283

We will go there as well tomorrow. All right?

284

Slowly, Kexing.

285

Kexing is such a pretty lady.

286

- Sir.

- Next time come to my manor again.

287

I will you inside the study for a good examination.

288

Before their death, all those people all met with Hu Kexing at Junxing Place.

289

This person is the most suspicious.

290

I refuse to believe that she will not show something amiss.

291

Looks like this crude man did not fall under my spell.

292

Also intends to go against me.

293

Then I must send you to the Underworld to investigate.

294

Who is there?

295

Mister.

296

The monk, why is it you again?

297

I let you go last time. Do you really think I don't dare to take care of you?

298

Mister, there is a strong spirit essence on your body.

299

You are the one having strong spirit essence.

300

You think I don't understand? A man's body has three bundle of pure Yang essence.

301

How can I have spirit essence? Come on, go back with me to the guard's hall.

302

I am not saying that you are a spirit.

303

You have been planted spirit essence on your body by a spirit. I am concern it might do you harm.

304

Why should I believe you?

305

When the evil spirit find a target, in order to make it easier to find the target again.

306

They will put the spirit essence on the prey.

307

That's why the Centipede Spirit gave the fragrance pouch to those kids.

308

On your body, there is a scent of Fox Spirit.

309

You are speaking as if that's true.

310

Why don't you think more carefully.

311

The matter of the Centipede Spirit.

312

Did I said anything untruthful then?

313

You really didn't.

314

When you were walking around alone here.

315

Did you hear anything? Or heard anything?

316

Master.

317

Master, come here.

318

Master, I clearly saw a woman sitting there crying.

319

But disappears right after I blink.

320

Master, could she be?

321

Evil spirits are skilled at creating human forms to seduce the human mind.

322

This Spirit Conquering Sword is especially sensitive to spirit essence.

323

I will lend to you for protection.

324

Mister, could you be scamming me with a fake sword?

325

When the Spirit Conquering Sword meets with spirit essence, it will light up to warn its owner.

326

At night when the spirit essence is at highest potency.

327

It's magical property will also increase.

328

It can be unsheathed on its own to destroy a spirit.

329

Automatically unsheathes?

330

Master, you are too superstitious.

331

Sir.

332

Just use it to protect your residence.

333

All right, thank you Master. See you next time.

334

Must say, this sword is quite scary.

335

He actually received such a high power magical weapon. I almost got vanquished here.

336

You got lucky today. We shall see later.

337

Brother Han Wen. Brother Han Wen.

338

Father, where is Xu Xian? Why didn't he come to the pharmacy again?

339

He asked for a few days of leave.

340

You permitted him?

341

Why not? Take a look at this.

342

He worked 20 days this month

343

and then took off a few days.

344

I almost deducted all of his wages. We don't lose any money.

345

We lose a lot!

346

Is my life's happiness only worth two taels of silver?

347

What life's happiness?

348

Wife. Wife.

349

Aren't you afraid of hurting people with your morning swordplay?

350

Just practice.

351

Where is our Han Wen?

352

He's out.

353

Look at this overcast weather. It'll rain soon.

354

He hasn't even recovered.

355

He's been absentminded. It's good to let him go out and get some air.

356

Here. come eat.

357

Open the door.

358

Who's that?

359

Miss Bai, you're here. Come inside.

360

Miss Bai.

361

We are here to say farewell.

362

We've visited Lin-an for three months already. We need to return to Xu Land.

363

We really appreciate your taking care of my sister.

364

Here is a small gift. Please accept.

365

Look at how courteous they are.

366

What's the matter with this sward. Quit playing with your broken sword.

367

No, Miss Bai is leaving.

368

Miss Bai is not from Lin An. What's so unusual about her leaving?

369

I'm going to find Han Wen. You must keep Miss Bai here at all cost.

370

Alright, alright.

371

Miss Bai, once you leave, there's no telling when you're return.

372

Let's have lunch here today.

373

I'll go shop for groceries now. You must wait here for me.

374

Come, please come inside the house.

375

Let's go.

376

Come.

377

I don't understand what you see in Xu Xian.

378

He's a typical poor guy.

379

Other than looking fairly nice and working pretty hard,

380

how can he match my Ruyi?

381

In this world, already few can be a good match for me.

382

According to what you say, do I stay single forever?

383

Stay single forever? That won't do.

384

How can I tell that to your mother?

385

Then don't bother finding me another family to marry into.

386

I don't want to marry into a big family to be abused.

387

If Xu Xian would consent to marry into our family, then I won't be bullied.

388

At least he always listens to you.

389

Can you bear to let me marry just anyone of unknown roots

390

and even be abused til the end of my life?

391

Don't cry, don't cry.

392

Don't cry, don't cry, my baby.

393

I'll agree, so that good enough?

394

Father, then go propose the marriage.

395

I propose? Proposal should be done by the man's family.

396

There's no such a thing that a woman's family doing the proposal.

397

If you want Xu Xian to marry into our family, then you have to do the proposal.

398

It's better to do it now rather than wait for selecting a date.

399

Now, go now.

400

Father, please just go.

401

Good father, you are so good.

402

Alright, Father will do what you want.

403

Such a....

404

Miss.

405

You rely on Master pampering so in order to...

406

Whatever Jin Ruyi likes,

407

she'll get. No matter what!

408

Come, come. Miss Bai, Young Lord Jing Sung, have tea.

409

Brother Li, your sword is quite unique.

410

It can actually shine. May I take a look?

411

Sure, sure.

412

This sword... Miss Bai, have some tea.

413

You are living well in Lin An, why are you leaving all of a sudden?

414

Drink tea, Young Lord Jin Sung.

415

Good sword.

416

This sword is really interesting. It shines when it sees people.

417

Isn't it supposed to shine when it meets demons?

418

Why is it shining when it sees me? Did that monk fool me with a bad sword?

419

Look, it must be my wife and Han Wen returning. I'll go look.

420

Coming, coming!

421

Coming, coming, don't worry.

422

HanWen! Oh my, HanWen.

423

-Brother-in-Law! How are you?

-Ruyi! Master Jin!

424

Why are you here?

425

-Can you do something for me?

-Do something for you?

426

-Hurry! Bring them in!

-What are you doing? Moving?

427

-Are you unloading something on me? What you're doing is bribing me, I'm telling you.

-These are betrothal gifts!

428

-Betrothal gifts??

Acting, acting, acting.

429

My Ruyi is pushing me too much.

430

Accompany me in fooling her.

431

I'm requesting marriage between

432

XuXian and my RuYi.

433

These are all betrothal gifts. I know that

434

I know that these aren't good enough, so I just sent them ahead of time.

435

I can't have the whole neighborhood laugh at my RuYi, right?

436

But let's agree that after a couple of days, I'll need to take them away, alright?

-Hurry!

437

I'm telling you that this doesn't count. We have to ask our JiaoRong.

Then let's now discuss

438

the wedding date, alright?

439

- Wedding gifts?

- Yes, yes, yes.

440

-Didn't I already say we need to ask my JiaoRong about this first?

-That's true.

441

Then how about this? Let's go inside and wait until

442

your JiaoRong and HanWen come home and discuss it together, will that do?

443

Hey, cooperate with me.

444

Uh, are there any auspicious days coming soon?

445

Miss Bai.

446

No, Young Lord Jin Sung. This...

447

Miss Bai, don't leave until you've eaten first.

448

She came to Xu Xian's house so early in the morning.

449

I just overslept a little.

450

Constable Li.

451

Miss Qing, what's the matter?

452

What's that thing you're carrying?

453

This? The monk from Jin Shan Temple gave it to me.

454

Said that it can help me subdue monsters and eliminate evil spirits.

455

But it's acting really strange in the past couple of days. It's shining at everyone.

456

It even shines at me. Are you scared?

457

No, no, no. You believe the words of that stinky monk?

458

I bet he thinks everyone is a demon.

459

When we were trying to capture that Centipede Spirit,

460

So I should believe him at least 30 percent of the time.

461

You can't even believe 30 percent of it.

462

I think this sword is completely unreliable, just like that stinky monk.

463

How about let me borrow it to try?

464

You want to play with it? Sure.

465

You want to play, I'll let you try it. Go play, I need to get busy.

466

Sure, go ahead.

467

Thank you.

468

What's so fun about kicking balls. Boys should play games that boys play with.

469

What is a game for boys?

470

Gongfu?

471

Didn't I ask you to host the guests at home?

472

- Don't mention that.

- Detective Li, take this!

473

-Sister Xu.

-Miss XiaoQing

474

It's good that you've come. Everyone's here. Let's go home and eat something good.

475

Then it's better for me to be respectful than decline.

476

Go.

477

It's so lively today outside.

478

What's this stink. Really!

479

Where is Miss Bai?

480

This... Miss Bai... has gone...

481

she left?

482

The ship to West Shu should have left yet.

483

Ship?

484

Ship to where?

485

Aren't you going back to West Shu today?

486

Miss Qing, don't tell me you didn't know.

487

Oh no!

488

Stinky rat!

489

Miss QIng, where are you going?

490

Han Wen. Han Wen.

491

It's about to rain, take an umbrella first.

492

Han Wen.

493

It's almost raining, why are they all going out?

494

Tell me, why did Miss Bai leave so suddenly?

495

I don't even want to think about it. Master Jin just came

496

and wanted me to playact with him

497

to propose marriage to their family. He even prepared the marriage gifts.

498

Proposal?

499

Don't worry, it's just playacting. Everything will be returned in a few days.

500

Then you're saying you not only coaxed Ruyi, you also lied to Miss Bai?

501

I didn't....

502

No, no, no.

503

Jiaorong! Han Wen!

504

I did this...

505

Clouds southward. Rain showers. The clouds towards the south.

506

Are just like cotton stuffing right now.

507

A bit later on, it's going to rain mightily.

508

Customer, if everyone's present, then we should leave as soon as possible.

509

Suzhen, get into the boat.

510

Boat man, let's go.

511

Someone is waving. Maybe wants to get on the boat.

512

If you don't mind, let's wait a few seconds.

513

What a Bai Suzhen, you are leaving without telling me.

514

Did that stinky rat taught you?

515

We are planning to return to Ermei.

516

You are the area head snake from Lin-an, why should we notify you?

517

Who says I can't follow you? I especially want to go too.

518

Xiao Qin, it was only a momentary plan for you to pretend to be my maidservant.

519

Didn't you tell Xu Xian that I am your younger sister, not your maidservant.

520

Older sisters are not suppose to leave their younger sister.

521

This time we are planning to Meditate in Ermei.

522

Most likely we will not leave the mountain for several hundred years.

523

You have a active personality, how can you stand to do that?

524

Why couldn't I stand it? I will get used to it.

525

I don't care. I will follow you to where you go.

526

You don't let follow you. I won't let you leave then.

527

Anyway I will follow you in this entire lifetime.

528

What about those friends of yours?

529

That's easy. Let them fly over to Ermei.

530

If I didn't find you here, I would also fly to Ermei to look for you.

531

It's quiet in Ermei, not as boisterous as Lin-An city. Are you sure now?

532

I am already tired of Lin-An. I want to try something new.

533

- Let's go.

Please start the boat.

534

Time to go.

535

Customer, a rainy day is a day for detaining guests.

536

The West Lake waves are getting big, we need to pull over to shore first.

537

We can take care of the matter by just moving the rain to the town.

538

This lady must be jesting.

539

How can be control where the rain cloud floats to. The West Lake has a nice sunny scenery.

540

Also nice in the rain too . Rain or shine,

541

It is up to Heaven's gift to us.

542

Boat master.

543

Boat master.

544

Boat master, we will pay extra for the entire boat. Please don't let others get onboard.

545

This passenger, my boat is full already.

546

I am here to ride the boat. I am looking for someone.

547

All right, I will be come back.
