Where's my hairpin?
Tang Yu,
I feel at ease with you here.
Where are we?
Tang Yu,
you're not injured, are you?
I am fine.
In that case,
let's hurry and find the Spiritual Beads.
Tang Yu,
what's wrong with you?
Still pretending to be tough?
Clearly, you have been seriously injured.
- Lie down.
- My Lady.
Go find the Earth Spiritual Bead.
It might be too late otherwise.
I do want to find the Spiritual Bead,
but with you so seriously injured
What will you do if I leave?
My Lady,
your task is to find the Spiritual Bead.
My life is not important.
Please, My Lady,
consider the bigger picture.
No.
We'll find it together.
I won't leave you behind.
Quick, lie down.
Go!
Protecting you is my duty.
My Lady, think no more of it.
Since you're unwilling
to go in search of the Spiritual Bead,
I shall go on your behalf.
You're right.
I am your master.
You are my guard.
Your life is none of my concern.
- Go.
- Go.
Come.
Get up.
Are you alright?
Come, pull him up.
Forget those for now.
Let's deal with the corpse demons first.
Follow me.
- Slow down, Jinyuan.
- It's alright. It's alright.
Sit here.
Sit, come sit.
It's okay.
Chief,
the men you sent out
have searched everywhere,
but haven't found Physician Han.
- Search again.
- Yes.
Sending more people is useless.
Physician Han is in cahoots
with the leader of corpse demons.
Why keep looking for him?
Impossible.
My father could never
be in league with corpse demons.
Then why did he take the leader away?
Could it be
he's so benevolent as a physician
that he even wants to cure the leader?
Now,
there are some things
I can no longer conceal.
Mount Guiyin was originally a land
of extreme yin and malevolence.
Hundreds of years ago,
a corpse demon outbreak occurred,
causing great harm
to the surrounding villagers
who were powerless to stop it.
Later,
a hero known as the Ghost General
used his body as a formation
to suppress the corpse demons.
But the Ghost General was infected
by the corpse demons,
turning into one himself.
To prevent corpse demons from reappearing,
we voluntarily built the General's Tomb
and established Baihe Fort,
vowing to guard it for generations.
We are now
the third generation.
You disguised as corpse demons
to protect the General's Tomb?
Exactly.
The General's Tomb
had always been impregnable,
and corpse demons never reappeared.
Later generations took it as a legend,
never expecting
The legend came true.
Chief,
excuse me for asking you this.
If you are tomb guardians,
and you said
the Ghost General was a hero,
why has he now become
the leader of corpse demons?
And why did Physician Han save him?
I will ask my father about it.
Of course, you must ask him.
Otherwise, how will you explain
to the villagers of Baihe Village?
Our chief doesn't need to explain.
- Explain what?
- Exactly. We support Chief.
She would never harm us.
She would never hurt us.
Everyone,
I will investigate this matter
thoroughly.
If my father really
I will not let familial affection
affect my judgment.
I will give everyone an explanation.
Chief, we believe in you.
Regardless of whether Physician Han
is in league with the corpse demons,
now that the leader has appeared
and the corpse demon threat
is escalating,
we need to resolve this quickly.
Correct.
The terrain here is complicated,
and there are many corpse demons.
Our defensive capabilities are limited.
Moreover, defending
is not a long-term solution.
Seeking a way
to defeat the enemy is the best strategy.
To completely resolve this
won't be easy.
Chief,
do you know of anything
that the corpse demon fears?
I have never heard of such a thing,
but it's said
there's a place in Mount Guiyin
where the corpse demons never approach.
Where is that?
Deep within Mount Guiyin,
there is the Jade Buddha Temple.
In that case,
why haven't you gone to this temple
to seek a solution?
Actually,
some of us had secretly
gone there before.
I was injured by a corpse demon,
and my father couldn't cure me.
The Second Chief of our fort
went there to seek a cure for me
but has not returned since.
The Third Chief also sent people
to look for him,
but they too, never returned.
Never returned?
Could it be that the temple
devours people?
Xiaoyao,
let's go to the Jade Buddha Temple.
If there really is a way
to solve this there,
nothing could be better.
If not,
we can also go there to see
what exactly happened to those people.
Miss Zhao,
I'm very sorry
to involve you all.
The situation of the Jade Buddha Temple
is uncertain.
You must not rashly go there.
Chief,
since we have gotten involved,
we should see it through to the end.
What are we waiting for?
Let's go to the Jade Buddha Temple now.
Good.
Scholar,
you don't need to come with us.
Stay and take care of everyone here.
The more people, the more strength.
- I'm coming with you. No need to say more.
- Jinyuan.
As expected.
Then,
you all must be extra careful.
Are you okay? Let's go.
Miss Zhao.
Chief.
Miss Zhao,
our Second Chief
is named Jiang Shaoyun.
If you come across him,
please give this to him.
Chief, I understand.
We will definitely bring him back.
Mr Li.
Chief,
rest assured.
If we encounter Physician Han,
we'll first clarify things
before deciding whether to fight.
Thank you.
Who does he think he is?
Even if he saved me,
he's just a guard.
Besides, I didn't ask him to save me.
Anyway,
he always annoys me.
He deserves to get hurt.
Nanzhao is still waiting for
the Water Spiritual Bead to pray for rain.
His life is nothing compared
to the Five Spiritual Beads.
He's just a guard.
His life is not your concern.
Right.
Not your concern.
Don't think that by doing this,
I'll be grateful to you.
My Lady.
I forgot this.
It's just a small effort.
I'm also just making a small effort.
This is the Zijing Yurong Pill
given to me
by my master, the Sacred Maid.
No matter how severe the injury,
it will heal in several days.
Thank you, My Lady.
Don't move.
You're injured.
And,
don't sacrifice the big picture
for something small again.
This hairpin
is not important.
Your teachings,
I will definitely bear in mind, My Lady.
My Lady, you
It's nothing.
Then you should rest a bit.
We'll leave in a while.
Yes.
Look,
we have arrived.
(Jade Buddha Temple)
Baihe Fort lies in ruins,
yet here lies tranquility
under the green shade.
Doesn't that seem a bit odd?
Maybe it's the Buddha's protection.
Or it could be an illusion.
We should still be cautious.
Sir, may I ask where your abbot is?
Amitabha.
We are
Amitabha.
No, we want to
Amitabha.
Amitabha.
If you say "Amitabha" again,
I'll fight you.
I'm asking where your abbot is.
Amitabha.
Amitabha.
Amitabha.
Amitabha.
Amitabha.
This monk seems silly
and odd.
I also faintly feel
a trace of demonic aura.
How could that be?
This is a thousand-year-old temple.
Why would there be demons?
(Shakya ManiHall)
Let's go in and see.
Amitabha.
Master,
are you the abbot here?
Indeed.
I am Zhixiu.
May I ask why the three of you are here?
Greetings, Master Zhixiu.
I am Li Xiaoyao.
These two are my friends.
Corpse demons from Mount Guiyin
have suddenly surged,
causing great harm
to the surrounding people.
Hearing of your high spiritual power,
we came to request you
to go and subdue the demons
and eliminate the harm for the people.
I am a follower
of Buddhism
and do not concern myself
with the secular affairs.
You should return.
Master, that is not right.
It is the natural duty of monks
to exorcise demons and maintain justice.
How can this be considered
a secular affair?
Mr. Li, you believe that
it is the duty of monks
to exorcise demons and maintain justice.
So,
are you willing to do that?
Of course.
As long as it's within my capabilities,
I will do my utmost.
So, do you agree
that one should maintain a compassionate heart
to liberate the world from calamity?
It should be so.
Good. It seems that
Mr. Li is indeed a person
with the roots of wisdom and Buddha-nature.
You're flattering me.
Please accompany us down
the mountain to subdue the demons.
Zhize,
quickly fetch me the razor
and monk's robe.
Yes.
Master,
what do you need
the razor and monk's robe for?
Of course, to ordain you.
Otherwise, should it be
for me and Ling'er?
You have good roots of wisdom, too.
Master, I I didn't say
I wanted to become a monk.
Mr. Li, since you have agreed,
how can you
go back on your word so quickly?
When did I agree?
You just said
it's the natural duty of monks
to exorcise demons and maintain justice.
I asked if you were willing to do so,
and you agreed.
This
Xiaoyao.
Well, monks can't get married
or have children.
I I'm not yet married.
It is said, "Of the three unfilial acts,
the worst is to have no descendants."
I cannot become a monk.
Mr. Li,
Buddha says, "Form is emptiness,
and emptiness is form.
Everything that appears is illusory."
Why cling to them?
You monk, stop spouting nonsense.
Just tell us the method
to exorcise the demons.
Yueru, Xiaoyao,
I think there's no method
to exorcise demons here.
Let's leave quickly.
Right.
Oh, Master Zhixiu,
do you have someone
named Jiang Shaoyun here?
If he's here,
please let us take him back.
Any man who steps
into the Jade Buddha Temple,
no matter what his purpose is,
must stay and become a monk.
No exceptions.
Then we'll see if you
have the ability to enforce that.
In that case,
please be patient.
There's something wrong with this bell.
Be careful.
Quick, cover your ears!
Savage girl!
Ling'er!
Sleep.
Sleep.
All beings suffer.
It's difficult to escape
their inner demons.
Only through cultivation
can one follow the right path.
Who else wants to try?
Get on.
Get on. Get on.
Get on. Get on.
I'll give it a try.
Look, look!
It's a phoenix, a phoenix!
And there's someone sitting on it.
Who is that?
That must be a great hero
who cultivates immortality.
So impressive!
Impressive!
So majestic!
Could it be him?
Li Xiaoyao, it's you!
Of course, it's me.
Who else could it be?
What are you here for?
To combat for marriage.
Dream on.
We'll see about that after the combat.
(I knew you would use this move.)
Alright.
Li Xiaoyao, admit it.
You're defeated by me.
- Great!
- Great!
What are you looking at?
Miss Lin is highly skilled.
I am inferior.
Though I am defeated by you.
I have admired you for a long time.
I hope you will fulfill my wish.
Li Xiaoyao,
let me make it clear.
It's not me marrying into your family.
It's you marrying into my family.
As it should be.
His bride is also beautiful, right?
Yes.
Xiaoyao hasn't returned
for many years,
and now he comes back
as Xiaoyao, the Hero,
bringing such a beautiful girl with him.
Auntie.
Xiaoyao, you're back.
Auntie, I have been unruly
and ignorant in the past,
causing you to worry.
It's good that you're back.
Xiaoyao,
I've heard about your deeds
in the martial world over these years.
You haven't dishonored
your parents' good name.
You and Ling'er
I have met Ling'er's parents.
They have agreed
to betroth Ling'er to me.
Let's hold the wedding for you now.
Good, good, good.
First bow. May the two families unite.
Great! Bravo! Wonderful!
Second bow.
May the husband and wife join hands.
- Great! Bravo!
- Wonderful!
May you receive the world's blessings
and happiness fill your bridal chamber.
Good, good, good!
Congratulations, congratulations.
Congratulations.
Good!
Congratulations.
Good!
Where's the snake demon?
Who dares to wreak havoc here?
- Surrender now!
- Why waste words on a snake demon?
Xiaoyao.
Ling'er?
Zhao Ling'er.
You turned out to be a snake demon.
After all the effort
to have me follow you,
what are you plotting?
What else could she plot?
Snake demons are just
trying to bewitch people.
I was stupid to treat you
like a sister before.
What dark plot do you have
by infiltrating the Lin Fortress?
Xiaoyao,
I don't know why either.
I don't know why
I turned into this.
Zhao Ling'er,
the truth is right before our eyes.
You're a snake demon.
Stop making excuses.
You snake demon,
we won't be bewitched
by you anymore.
Xiaoyao,
Yueru, let me explain.
I'm not a snake demon.
Demons should be eliminated
by everyone.
Snake demon,
I'll end you now,
to rid the people of harm.
Who are you
to break my Jade Buddha
Magical Formation?
Are you the one who trapped us here?
Where are Xiaoyao and Yueru?
They
are enjoying themselves
in the formation.
Release them now!
Miss Lin is highly skilled.
I am inferior.
Though I am defeated by you.
I have admired you for a long time.
I hope you will fulfill my wish.
Xiaoyao
Yueru
These are projections of their desires.
The more they want something,
the more they'll dream of it.
Xiaoyao, Yueru,
wake up, please!
It's no use.
Unless
they want to wake up themselves,
nobody can wake them.
I'll wake them up no matter what.
No wonder you can break my formation.
Turns out you're not an ordinary person.
To break my formation,
you'll use up all your spiritual power.
If you exhaust your spiritual power,
then your secret
will no longer be hidden.
Secret?
If you break this formation,
your secret will be exposed.
Then,
the thing you fear the most
will become true.
Demons should be eliminated
by everyone.
Snake demon,
I'll end you now,
to rid the people of harm.
Are others
also trapped in this dream by you?
I'm converting people.
Buddhism is not like this.
Desires in dreams
are also illusory.
Even if you make the dream beautiful,
it's all just an illusion.
All the gods and Buddhas
This is
The Jade Buddha Temple.
Ling'er.
Ling'er.
Ling'er, Ling'er, what's wrong?
Wine
I can still drink.
Savage girl, come to your senses.
Ling'er.
Ling'er.
Ling'er.
Li Xiaoyao,
am I dreaming?
Savage girl, come to your senses.
We were all caught
in the old monk's illusion
and passed out.
So, it was all a dream.
Ling'er.
Ling'er.
Xiaoyao.
That's great.
I was so scared just now.
Don't look at me.
Ling'er, what's wrong?
Don't look at me.
Don't look at me.
- Ling'er.
- Don't look at me.
Don't look at me.
Ling'er, did you have a nightmare?
Don't be scared.
We were just under an illusion.
It's all right now.
To break my formation,
you'll use up all your spiritual power.
Then your secret
will no longer be hidden.
So,
it was all fake.
Ling'er,
don't be afraid.
I'm here to protect you.
No.
I have to settle this with that monk.
You monk, come out!
Xiaoyao.
Don't worry, I'm here.
Let's go.
(Shakya ManiHall)
You monk, come out!
Come out!
I can't take it anymore.
I don't want to be a monk anymore.
I don't want to be a monk anymore.
I don't want to be a monk anymore.
I can't take it anymore!
What's wrong with him?
He must have also been affected
by that demon monk's spell.
Who am I?
I seem to have forgotten
something important
and an important person.
Who is it?
Who is it?
She is
Who is she?
Who are you?
This is the token of love
I gave to Mengci.
I remember now.
- I am
- Jiang Shaoyun?
I am Jiang Shaoyun.
I am Jiang Shaoyun.
He's the Second Chief of Baihe Fort.
How is Mengci?
Is her illness cured?
Yes, she's fine now.
Quickly wake the others trapped here,
so they can go home.
Then come back to Baihe Fort with us.
Alright.
I'll do it right now.
No wonder they said the Second Chief
of Baihe Fort disappeared.
He was trapped by this demon monk.
Let's see how I'll deal with him later.
Since you're here,
don't think about leaving.
Amitabha.
Unexpectedly,
you managed to escape
from my Wujin Bell's illusion.
It won't be so easy this time.
Be careful of his bell.
Stop hitting me. Stop hitting me!
Stop hitting me. Stop hitting me!
Please spare my life.
I won't dare do it again.
Don't think I won't beat you
just because you turned into a child.
Tell me.
Why are you harming people?
(Little Stone)
I didn't harm anyone.
I just wanted them to become monks.
I didn't force them to do bad things.
Then what kind of demon are you?
I'm not a demon.
I'm transformed from the Buddha beads
on Buddha's desk.
I have been cultivating for 9,999 years.
If that's the case,
you should focus on the cultivation
to seek enlightenment,
not force others to become monks.
The scriptures say
all beings can be saved.
The scriptures also say
everyone has Buddha-nature,
so I thought
if I could make many people
become disciples of Buddhism,
the Buddha would be moved
and would take me to heaven
to become a Buddha.
What kind of cultivation method is this?
Who taught you this?
I
I thought of it
while reading the scriptures.
The essence of cultivation
lies in selflessness and helping others.
Buddha said
forsaking one's self is selflessness,
and compassion is helping others.
Yet, your actions are the opposite,
destroying your merit.
It's a pity you have
a thousand years of cultivation
but only the wisdom of a child.
Continuing this way,
you might not become a Buddha
but fall into the demonic path instead.
I understand now.
I finally understand
why you could break
my Jade Buddha Magical Formation.
Bodhisattva
You are a Bodhisattva.
I I I'm not a Bodhisattva.
Then you're a fairy.
I I'm not a fairy either.
Miss, I'm really moved.
No one has ever taught me
these principles before.
Please take me as your disciple.
I won't take anyone as a disciple.
And these principles
are just something I read in books.
If you won't take me as a disciple,
I'll just kneel here and not get up.
Let him atone for his actions.
We need to subdue the corpse demons.
Maybe this little one can be of use.
Let me follow you.
I can help you
subdue the corpse demons.
In that case,
follow me.
From now on, I'll call you Little Stone.
You can come out when you're called.
May I ask how to call you?
I'm Zhao Ling'er.
Then I'll call you
Miss Fairy from now on.
You slick talker.
Ling'er,
you look pale.
Let's rest a bit before moving on.
Ling'er, what did you
dream about just now?
Just a common nightmare.
If it's a nightmare, forget it quickly.
Silly rat,
tell me. What did you dream about?
Of course, a beautiful dream.
So beautiful I didn't want to wake up.
Tell me. What did you dream about?
Nothing.
Seeing you like this,
you must have dreamed
something shameful.
Right, I dreamed about you,
the most shameful thing.
The most venomous is in women's hearts.
You probably
stabbed me again in the dream.
Not just stabbed you once,
I killed you eight hundred times.
After all, you can only imagine
such things in dreams.
In reality, you can't beat me.
- I
- What about you?
You just can't beat me.
I can't be bothered with you.
