A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
EPISODE 10
Ms. Tie.
I thought you wanted to take a walk because you were bored.
But it seems like...
What does it seem like?
You're looking for someone.
I'm not.
We've traveled together for days.
Don't you understand our young master?
You can be honest with him about anything.
He is very considerate of women.
If there's anything he can do to help, he'll surely do his best.
I know.
It's just that I'm not certain
if my friend has arrived in Emei.
XIANKELAI INN
"Xiankelai Inn."
It's here.
Sir, we're fully booked today.
My friend booked it.
She's wearing a man's outfit again?
You're not Tie Xinlan.
You know Tie Xinlan?
Let go of me first.
Have I met you before?
I don't think so.
-Do you know-- -Do you know--
I asked you first. Answer me.
Do you know Tie Xinlan?
-Yes. -Where is she?
Take me to her.
Why are you looking for her?
How is that any of your business?
Who are you?
Ms. Tie has been harassed lately.
I have to make sure.
Harassed?
Are you referring to the two witches dressed in red and green?
-Two young ladies. -Don't call them ladies.
They are witches.
Tie Xinlan and I suffered because of them.
Enough. Take me to her quickly.
Ms. Tie never mentioned a companion.
May I ask for your name?
She never mentioned a companion?
It has only been a few days, and she got herself a white knight.
You won't let me see her.
Are you interested in her?
I happened to meet Ms. Tie by chance.
I don't want to see her in danger.
If you really are her friend,
please tell me your name.
I'll send someone to bring Ms. Tie here.
Don't you know that you should introduce yourself first
before asking for someone else's name?
I am Hua Wuque.
He's Mr. Hua?
Both Murong Jiu and Little Fairy are scared of him.
Tie Xinlan has this white knight.
I won't have to be worried anymore.
It's best not to see Tie Xinlan.
Or she'll pester me again and I won't be able to get away.
May I ask for your name?
I am Ni Laozi.
Mr. Ni.
Don't stand on ceremony. Just call me by my full name.
Ni Laozi?
Sir.
Ms. Tie.
Why do you look so upset lately?
It's nothing.
I just met someone.
He claimed to be looking for you.
He was looking for me? What does he look like?
He's about my age.
But he has a scar on his forehead.
Where is he now?
He headed east.
Ms. Tie, where are you going?
Xiaoyu'er!
Take a look. Have a look.
Candied fruits.
Xiaoyu'er!
Here, take a look.
You frightened me.
Why did you leave us behind?
What do you mean?
How is that called leaving you behind?
I came up with that trick to test how skilled you are in martial arts.
Sir.
What have you been up to?
Tell us.
I felt sorry for you, so I bought you braised pork hocks.
Look. They smell so good.
I thought you left us both behind to do a huge business deal.
Listen to yourself. How is that possible?
Let's go and munch on the pork hocks.
Let's go.
Sir.
Here.
Sir, have some wine.
We're in no hurry.
Sit down.
Try the braised pork hocks I bought.
It's braised in a decade-old sauce.
It's so good
that I almost swallowed my tongue.
Try some quickly.
How is it?
It's good. It's really good.
It tastes really different when it's cooked with aged sauce.
-Exactly. -Good taste.
Goat.
Shouldn't we drink a toast to him?
Here.
Sir, here's a toast to you.
Here, thanks.
We're already at Mount Emei.
What's your next move?
What about it?
When are we going up the mountain?
-What mountain? -Mount Emei.
We'll head up there tomorrow morning for some fun.
Sir.
I'm afraid we can't obey you anymore.
What does that mean?
Little rascal.
Stop acting.
What did you call me?
You old goat...
The wine was drugged.
In order to fool you,
we both drank from the same jar.
But before we drank the wine,
we already took the antidote.
Why are you doing this?
Do you think that Murong Residence's mysterious medicine
is worthy of the Twelve Zodiac?
I'll be honest with you.
You are our target.
When Snake met us,
he told us everything about the treasure map.
In this world,
you're the only one who knows where Yan Nantian's treasure is.
That's why we went to Murong Residence.
We thought we'd get into an ugly fight with Murong Jiu.
But who knew
that lady actually escaped.
We searched the place, but we couldn't find you.
Therefore, out of anger, we burned Murong Residence down.
We only discovered the hidden rooms after the house burnt down.
It turned out that you were locked in the water dungeon.
I see...
Ox figured out that once you leave the water dungeon,
the first place you'd go must be where Yan Nantian's treasure is.
Therefore, Ox set up a trap for you to fall into.
You came up with this idea?
You didn't expect it, right?
Looks can be really deceiving.
Who knew that a stupid ox could come up with so many tricks.
Why are you sighing?
So many people in the martial arts world have fallen for Ox's tricks.
You're not the first one.
You were with the daughter of Mad Lion, Tie Zhan.
We thought you must be related to the Ten Great Villains.
So we simply mentioned one of the Ten Great Villains.
Who knew that you would jump right into our trap?
I knew it.
How could notorious villains like the Twelve Zodiac
be so honest and obedient suddenly?
I've really been too careless.
We are the Twelve Zodiac, are we not?
If it weren't just to fool you,
we'd ignore Li Dazui even if he was here.
We planned to get the treasure first
before killing you.
Who knew that you would try to escape
as soon as we arrived at Mount Emei?
We both gave it a thought.
The treasure must be here in Mount Emei.
Therefore, we drugged you.
Young lad, if you tell us honestly,
we'll show you some mercy and let you off.
If you try to pull any tricks...
Goodness.
You're in for some torture.
Little rascal.
-What are you laughing at? -Old bastard.
Do you really think
that I've fallen for your trick?
Spit it out. Don't dillydally.
I'm willing to tell you.
But I'm afraid that you'll be dead before I'm done telling you.
The braised pork hocks aren't poisonous.
Not at all.
I've planned to go up to the mountain to find the treasure.
I didn't want you to tag along,
but I still bought you pork hocks.
I didn't even add poison to them.
-Don't you think that I-- -What are you up to?
Let's not forget
that you don't dare to poison me to death because you need me for the treasure.
But as for me,
I can just poison you to death, right?
Yes, we're fools.
We don't know a thing.
How can we get poisoned just like that?
Of course.
You mustn't believe a word I say.
You mustn't touch the fifth acupoint below your chest.
I assure you that there's nothing wrong with it.
Just a bit higher.
Although it will hurt a bit,
you won't die anytime soon.
You still have time to kill me first.
-Ox, get the antidote from him. -Okay.
Only a fool will keep the antidote on him to be found by someone else.
What do you want from us?
If I were you,
I'd hand over the antidote right away.
Then flatter me for a bit.
It's best to kowtow a few times.
What if you don't cure us even though we've cured you?
If you don't give me the antidote first,
how will you know if I will cure you or not?
I'm a bit sleepy.
It's best that I sleep for three or four days.
By then, you'll...
-Sir! -Sir!
I, Ox, swear to the gods that I won't dare to do so again.
Yes! Sir, don't you worry.
We won't dare to do so again.
Why are you so loud?
Are you going to let me sleep or not?
Sir.
What are you still waiting for?
You should give me the antidote now.
-Hurry up. -Okay.
Sir.
Do you feel better already?
Are you all right?
Your antidote does work quite well.
Definitely.
Will the antidote you give us also be very effective?
What antidote?
You--
I'm joking. I have the antidote with me.
Why didn't you search for it just now?
Both of you really shouldn't trust anyone so easily.
Understand?
-Yes. -Yes.
No!
-We believe you. -We believe you.
Here.
Here's the antidote.
Ox.
Ox!
Save me some!
Why is there only one left?
One can cure you as well.
How is it?
It doesn't hurt anymore.
This antidote is effective.
All right then.
It's because those pork hocks weren't poisoned anyway.
Shouldn't you give it a thought?
I didn't make that decade-old sauce.
How could I possibly poison it?
Then why did it hurt so much over here?
What you pressed
happens to be the acupoint where the energy flow and blood meet.
Therefore, even if you're not poisoned,
it hurts with a press.
Now that your energy flow and blood have passed through,
it doesn't hurt anymore.
You...
-Goat... -What's wrong?
Ox!
Ox, what's wrong?
What's going on?
He was too greedy and took too many of the antidote.
The braised pork hocks weren't poisoned.
But the antidote is actually a poison.
-Little rascal, I-- -It's your turn now.
Ox and Goat.
Thank you for attending to me.
As for this meal, it's my treat.
After this, we shall part ways and may we never meet again.
You...
-You... -You...
You mustn't move.
If you do, they will bite you to death.
Little rascal.
You still can't escape from me.
Snake, you're finally here.
We fell for that lad's tricks by accident.
You're both so old already.
Yet you were still tricked by a child.
An ox and a goat.
How can you still face everyone else?
All right, Snake. Cut the crap.
Give us the antidote quickly!
He's just an immature child.
What deadly poison could he possibly have?
When it comes to me, Lord Bishe, detoxifying is easy.
Don't worry.
I definitely won't give you the antidote.
-Snake! -You...
Damn it.
But I have to ask both of you.
You said you'd leave me traces along the way.
Where did you leave them?
If I didn't blend in with the filial followers,
would I be able to find you?
Are you trying to ditch me so that you can have the treasure
all to yourself?
But you didn't do anything wrong.
The treasure
is indeed too little when shared among three people.
All right then.
You can await your death.
The treasure is mine!
Help! Murderer!
I...
Little rascal.
Ox and Goat are dead.
Now it's your turn.
Snake.
I know you won't kill me.
The map should be digested in my stomach by now.
You won't find it even if you rip my stomach apart.
If you want the treasure,
don't you still need me?
You're quite smart.
Indeed.
So, shouldn't these snakes be removed or...
These snakes are called Green Silk,
also known as Skeleton Maggot.
Without my command,
these snakes will stay on you forever.
How does that feel?
It feels itchy and sore.
And numb.
With a flick of my finger,
you'll be embraced by sensual sensations,
and such an enticing sensation
isn't for everyone.
Does it feel that good?
I don't think I need it.
Snake.
Don't you just want the treasure?
You don't have to kill me.
But if your minions disobey you
and bite me because I smell good,
what will I do?
I know that I can't keep an eye on you.
That's why I made them carry out this task for me.
This...
If I walk on the street like this, everyone will be terrified.
How can I lead you to the treasure?
Take them away from me.
-You have a point. -Right?
I don't mind taking your advice.
I knew that you were reasonable.
Here.
This...
All right, will this do now?
You won't scare people now, right?
But they...
This...
They are very obedient.
They won't move as long as you don't move around recklessly.
But if you try anything funny,
their sweet little mouths will...
give you a kiss.
I...
I won't pull any tricks.
Please get them out, all right?
High and mighty Snake.
You...
Just let me off, please?
-Are you begging for mercy? -Yes.
Stop looking for them.
They move about without a trace.
You won't find them.
-How mysterious. -Tell me.
Is the treasure in Mount Emei?
It absolutely is.
Will I get to see the treasure tonight?
You will not only get to see the treasure, but also take it with you.
Lead the way.
XIANKELAI INN
Ms. Tie.
Did you find your friend?
No.
Ms. Tie, if you don't mind, I can help you look for him.
I won't trouble you with such a trivial matter, Mr. Hua.
I'll search for him slowly.
-Come in and take a look. -Come on in.
Even if the Taoists of Mount Emei can defeat Lord Bishe,
they can't get rid of these snakes.
Little rascal.
Don't try anything funny.
Those beautiful snakes on you were raised by me.
Apart from me, they won't obey anyone else.
Snake.
You...
Why are you so remarkable?
You even know what I'm thinking.
You're the smartest person in the entire world.
Enough nonsense.
-Hurry up. -Here, this way.
Little rascal.
Why aren't we there yet?
You find this slow?
Listen.
If not for me, you won't find the spot
after seven days and nights even if you know the place.
Enough nonsense. Take me there.
You'll have to follow very closely.
Little rascal, how dare you run?
Here we are.
Little rascal.
Your qinggong is pretty good.
That's right.
Before we get to the treasure, it's best to compliment me more often.
After we find the treasure, you can have me tortured to death then.
This place is really remote.
It's a perfect place to hide treasures.
Where is the entrance?
Little rascal!
Where have you gone?
Show yourself!
Show yourself, little rascal!
You can't get away!
Listen.
If you still won't show yourself, I'll blow my whistle.
Once the whistle is blown,
you'll die horribly.
One,
two,
-three. -Hey.
What's the rush?
The treasure is over here. Come here.
Come through here. Hurry up.
The entrance is here.
See? If I didn't lead the way, you wouldn't find it.
It's indeed well hidden.
Without Yan Nantian's map,
no one will be able to get to this place.
-Let's go. -Hurry up.
It's so dark.
Isn't it brighter now?
Listen.
I've spent a long time preparing for this trip.
Take a look at this.
This torch costs me 300 taels.
I got it from Old Fire Raven.
It won't go out for a day and night.
-Is it that awesome? -Yes.
Look at mine.
Do you also have one?
-It costs three taels. -This...
Old Fire Raven...
How dare he scammed me?
I'll deal with him once I return.
What's the matter?
This...
Why is there someone here?
This...
He's dead.
Dead?
There's another one.
He's also dead.
There's one more.
The Three Swordsmen of Jinling.
When they are united, they can even break gold.
Do you know them?
They are dead, but their bodies are still warm.
This means whoever killed them is still in this cave.
That's impossible.
How can anyone else know about this cave?
Yan Nantian made a huge effort to hide his treasure.
He only drew one map,
and the only map was in your hands.
Could you have told someone else?
Who is it?
You guessed it right.
Whoever killed the Three Swordsmen of Jinling
is indeed still in this cave.
That would be me.
You're Gray Bat.
Then the Owl...
Since Gray Bat is here,
Owl can't be far from here.
The Twelve Zodiac has been known for a long time,
yet he forgot to watch his back
when he's speaking to someone.
Young lad, how did you find this place?
Weren't you the one who told us about it?
What?
Yan Nantian only drew one treasure map.
If you didn't tell us about it, how could we have found our way here?
You asked us for help.
You wanted us to kill Gray Bat,
so that you'll have the treasure to yourself.
Are you going back on your word?
Could you have asked someone else for help?
You're quite tricky despite being so young.
-I'll kill you! -Bring it on!
Just kill me!
Owl!
Why would you kill a child?
Why did you stop me?
Could it be
that you really believe what this child said?
I am just curious.
There's obviously only one treasure map.
Why would these people be here?
Exactly.
We have been friends for 20 years.
Everyone in the martial arts world knows that I'll go wherever Gray Bat is.
Could it be
that you won't even believe me?
I've gotten used to being bullied.
It's normal for me to not completely trust someone.
Fine.
You must have wanted the treasure all to yourself.
So you're taking this chance to kill me!
Kid.
Why are you so quiet?
I was about to thank you.
How odd.
Why aren't you running away?
Why should I?
Venomous snakes?
Beautiful snakes.
He was the one who frightened you.
Not me.
You saved my life, so you must not bite me.
Get inside quickly.
Get inside.
Someone is here.
Who are you?
Well, who are you?
You don't know who I am?
I am
the Chief Escort of the armed escort company in 17 counties.
Mighty Iron Fist of Zhong Province,
Zhao Quanhai.
Your name is so long,
but it's quite cool.
Then do you know who I am?
Tell me.
I am...
the saint of snakes, the supreme master of swords,
the almighty of kings,
the invincible man who defeated challengers
across 13 provinces,
the earth-shattering Prince Yu.
I've never heard of such a person in the martial arts world.
Then you should ask your master if he has heard about me.
My name will make the elders in the martial arts world
bow to me.
You're just an immature kid.
How dare you say such nonsense?
Even my son is much older than you.
You don't even have a clue
that once you've achieved the peak of martial arts,
you can get rejuvenated.
All right.
I've already killed plenty of people today.
I can't be bothered to kill again.
You seem like a tough man.
You'd better get going.
Do you think you can scare me off?
Shouldn't you take a look at who is lying dead on the ground?
The Three Swordsmen of Jinling.
Lord Bishe.
There are two more.
Do you not recognize Gray Bat and Owl?
-Were they killed by you? -What's so surprising about that?
Answer me.
Who do you think is stronger?
You or them?
I...
I'm definitely not as strong as them,
but I also made a huge effort to find my way here.
If I let you scare me off,
I'd be discontented.
As long as you demonstrate your skills to me,
I'll leave as soon as possible.
Do you wish to witness my skills?
Yes.
Fine. How about this?
If you can kill these little snakes on me
without hurting me,
then you may have the treasure.
Do you really mean it?
Why would an elder lie to the young?
Who is it now?
-Such swift swordsmanship. -Fear not.
Stand behind me. I'll protect you.
Thank you.
Do you know who they are?
Well...
The woman on the left is...
Snowflake Blade, Liu Yuru.
Her skills are sheer perfection.
The other one is Dragon Sword, Feng Tianyu.
His blade skills are quick and he's known to be unparalleled.
Zhao Quanhai.
What are you doing here?
Well...
Snowflake Blade.
It has been years.
So you do know each other.
Even if both of you team up, I will not fear you.
-You... -Quanhai.
Did you bring a disciple with you?
Why is he so odd?
He isn't my disciple.
This is Mr. Yu, an elder.
Mr. Yu, an elder?
Both of you should stop fighting.
Look.
That's the famous Three Swordsmen of Jinling.
This is Lord Bishe of the Twelve Zodiac.
Gray Bat and Owl are over there.
They were all killed by this elder, Mr. Yu.
All right.
Why bother telling them that?
Ms. Liu.
May I ask if you have a treasure map on you?
Yes.
Feng Tianyu, do you have one as well?
I definitely do.
How else could I have found my way here?
Interesting.
So there are six maps that lead to the treasure.
How strange is that?
Mr. Yu is right.
How about this?
Let's take a look in the cave first.
If there is really a treasure,
you can fight for it by all means.
The Chief Escort is smarter indeed.
All of you, follow me.
Beautiful snakes...
Please don't bite me if we really get into a fight.
What can I do to make you obey me?
If I walk on the street like this, everyone will be terrified.
How can I lead you to the treasure?
Take them away from me.
Elder.
The snakes returned to you after you whistled.
If I had grabbed those snakes,
I would have been bitten to death by now.
You're quite smart.
I don't mind telling you.
Just now, Lord Bishe died
because he was bitten by their little mouths.
Lord Bishe claimed to be like a viper,
but he was killed by these little snakes.
Elder, sorry for offending you just now.
Please don't take it to heart.
Don't worry about it.
Elder.
Have you practiced some mysterious skill
that enables you to rejuvenate?
Well...
It's not worth mentioning.
Come, follow me.
Is anyone there?
What are these five-year-old monsters doing here?
Who are they?
Elder, have you heard of the Huainan Wang Family's
Mighty Eagle Claws?
The man on the left is the leader of the Eagle Claws Clan.
He treats people like chickens. That's Wang Yizhua.
He treats people like chickens?
-What nickname is that? -Hey.
He gave himself that nickname.
It means that no matter who you are,
you're just like a chicken to him.
You'll die once you get caught by his claws.
How arrogant.
The monk in front of him, the one in yellow,
is Master Huang Ji of Wutai Mountains' Crowing Rooster Temple.
Huang Ji and Yizhua?
Aren't they born as nemesis?
Archenemies?
Those three behind them must be their supporters.
Exactly.
Behind Master Huang Ji is the householder, Xiao Yun.
Those two behind Wang Yizhua
are Master Sun of the Tiannan Swordsmanship Clan,
and Mr. Qiu, the seventh master of the Zhedong Qiu Clan,
a renowned spear clan.
How have you been, Qiu?
Who are you calling Qiu?
Child, do you know me?
How did you get here?
You don't know me, but I know who you are.
I especially brought Zhao Quanhai, Snowflake Blade,
and Feng Tianyu here to help you.
There's no need for you to be afraid. Just go ahead and attack Xiao Yun.
As for that monk, Huang Ji, I'll have him killed!
You bunch of pretentious fools.
I didn't expect you to have reinforcements.
Are you bullying us?
Wang Yizhua!
If all of you manage to kill me today,
the reputation of Eagle Claws Clan will go to waste!
Who cares about reputation?
Our Master Wang Yizhua never cares about such matters.
Who exactly are you?
Hey.
I'm here to help you, but you're asking me who I am?
-Tell him. -All right.
Well...
This is the saint of snakes,
the supreme master of swords, the almighty of kings,
the invincible man who defeated challengers,
the earth-shattering Prince Yu.
You left out a few words.
Forget it.
If you've never even heard of my name,
you must be very uneducated.
An immature child like you
dares to claim such titles?
This elder has superior inner power.
The Three Swordsmen of Jinling,
Gray Bat, Owl, and Lord Bishe
were all killed by him.
He even got snakes on him.
All right. Why bother telling them?
How did you know that so many people have died?
-Did you see it for yourself? -Exactly.
The dead bodies are lying out there.
All right.
All of you came here to get the treasure, right?
Does this mean that each of you has a treasure map as well?
You're really dumb.
Did you think it through?
Why are there so many maps that lead to the treasure?
Don't you find it suspicious?
Shouldn't you head inside and take a look first?
Why are you fighting with each other? What if there isn't any treasure?
Won't all that effort go in vain?
That's right.
There's no telling that there's any treasure for sure.
You can still fight it out after you have seen the treasure.
There's a door ahead.
EARTH, THUNDER, FIRE, LAKE
Huang Ji, Wang Yizhua.
You're both the masters of your clans.
I'll leave this simple task to you.
"Heaven, wind, water, mountain.
Earth, thunder, fire, lake."
Heaven, mountain, thunder, fire.
Wind, water, earth, lake.
Heaven, water, mountain, thunder.
Wind, fire, earth, lake.
Heaven.
Water.
Mountain.
Thunder.
Wind, fire, earth, lake.
