[The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils]

[Episode 12]

How dare you girls bring a stranger to Mandarava Villa.

Chop off his legs now.

You Cao. Don't scare me.

Are you being serious?

Bi. Don't let her scare you.

If Madam was at home,

You Cao wouldn't be strolling leisurely around. Right?

Enough, both of you.

Come.Follow me. Follow me.

Wait here, Young Master. We'll be back soon.

Miss! Didn't you say you were going to answer nature's call?

How can you just leave like that?

But the camellia flowers here
are really beautiful.

I need to relieve myself too.

I should do that.

What should I do?

I need to find a place where no one can see me.

This place works.

This place is good.

I can do it here.

No.

How can a man squat down to pee?

I need to find a place where I can stand.

Young Master Murong is doing well.

He has been eating well too.

Some time ago, he was practicing
the Dog Beating Staff Technique.

I'm sure he's planning to meet someone from the Beggars' Sect.

Then, how long will he be gone for this time?

I'm not sure.

But he said that he would make a trip to Zhenla.

I think he may even go to Luoyang to meet someone from the Beggars' Sect.

Don't worry, Miss Wang. Brother Deng is with him.

The Dog Beating Staff Technique

and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms
are the secret techniques

of the Beggars' Sect.
They don't pass it to others.

Even if we combine

the techniques of Huanshi Library
and Langhuan Jade Cave,

we can't replicate it at all.

We can't even transfer energy from one to another.

Did you pass on the message that I asked to you?

Yes, I did.

But he said this Dog Beating Staff Technique is created by man.

He's sure that he can figure it out.

Even if he can, it'll take him eight to ten years.

He will not be able to figure it out in such a short while.

When will he come back?

Ask him to come and see me as soon as he can.

Even if he has learned the ultimate techniques of the Beggars' Sect, he mustn't be arrogant.

Miss Deity.

Who is it?

Miss Deity!

Is that the man who was traveling with you?

Yes.

Miss Wang.

Miss Deity.

Miss Deity.

- What are you doing?
- Miss Deity.

Miss Deity.

I...

What are you doing?

I am Duan Yu.

I was only looking around
your camellia flower garden.

And I accidentally stumbled here. Please forgive me.

Please forgive me.

Miss Deity.

Do you know how much I've missed you?

Miss Deity.

I have so much to tell you.

Miss Deity.

No, I...

Young Master Duan.

Get up now.

All right.

No, I can't. Miss Deity.

Please accept this kowtow from your disciple.

Miss, this is bad!

Madam is back.

What?

- No, I...
- Madam is back?

Stop talking.

- Let's go now.
- Miss Deity.

Listen to me.

- Miss, let's go.
- Miss Deity.

Young Master Duan.

Young Master Duan, let's go.

I have so much to tell you.

- We have to go now.
- I've been following

- your instructions every day.
- Young Master Duan.

- We'll die if we don't leave now.
- Miss Deity!

- Let's go now.
- Listen to me!

- I have much
- Just go.

- To tell you.
- Young Master Duan.

Miss Deity.

- Miss Deity.
- Young Master Duan!

- Young Master Duan. Let's go.
- Capture them.

- Don't move!
- Don't move!

[Li Qing Luo, Mandarava Villa]

- Madam.
- Madam.

How dare you

trespass into Mandarava Villa.

I am Duan Yu.

I only came here to seek shelter.

I didn't mean to trespass.

Please forgive me.

Your surname is Duan?

Yes.

Madam.

We came here for shelter because
we were being chased by an enemy.

It's not his fault.

Bi and I made the decision to bring him here.

Please forgive us.

Deceiving words.

Later,

chop off both of his legs,

gouge out his eyes

and cut off his tongue.

As for both of you,

I will cut off your hands too.

Bring me the two male criminals.

You.

You are from Dali.

Why do you deny it?

I'm from Yunnan.

It's more than 400 li from my town to Dali.

It's not a part of Dali.

You are considered a citizen of Dali
as long as it's less than 500 li.

Guards.

Bury him alive under my mandarava flowers

as fertilizer.

Yes, Madam!

Wait.

What did I do wrong?

Give me an explanation.

As long as you are a citizen of Dali

or if your surname is Duan,

you'll be buried alive

in my hands.

Although you are not from Dali,

you are from its neighboring country.

You'll receive the same punishment.

I'm not from Dali!

I'm not!

Absurd.

I am from Dali.

And my surname is Duan.

If you want to bury me alive,

you better do it now.

Be patient.

It will be your turn soon.

What do you have to say for yourself?

Please spare my life, Madam.

My father is an officer in the capital city.

And I'm his only son.

Please spare my life.

If you need anything,

just name it, and my father will grant it to you.

Spare your life?

That's not hard.

Go back today

and kill your wife at once.

Tomorrow,

marry the girl who
you have been meeting in private.

Give her the proper wedding she deserves.

There's no grudge between us.

Why do you have to force me
to kill my wife and marry another?

Since you already have a wife,

why do you still involve yourself
with other women?

Since you tricked another woman
with your deceiving words,

you should take her as your wife.

Drag him out.

Yes, Madam!

Spare my life, Madam.

Please spare me, Madam!

Madam!

Please spare my life, Madam!

This is outrageous.

Silence!

Miss!

This is bad.

- What happened?
- When Zhu and Bi were leaving,

they ran into Madam.

They were all taken to the main hall.

What should we do then?

Zhu and Bi are my cousin's servants.

How will he treat me

if my mother actually punishes them?

You said that I know nothing about camellia.

But my villa is full of these flowers.

They are lush and abundant.

How could you say

that I know nothing about camellia?

Those are just wild camellia.

Of course, they would grow well
even in a harsh environment.

Take these white camellia flowers, for example.

If an amateur like you can grow them well,

I'll change my surname.

Are you saying that you are an expert in flowers?

It's such a waste for a person like you

to own such precious flowers.

Madam Wang, let me ask you.

Do you know the name
of these two white camellia flowers?

They are both called Full Moon.

You are wrong.

You are totally wrong.

You can't even recognize the flower.

How can you call yourself an expert?

One is called Beauty Dressed in Mourning White.

And the other one is called Variegata di Bologna.

Variegata di Bologna?

This name sounds so strange.

Madam Wang.

If you want to learn from me,

you'll have to show your sincerity.

If you want to interrogate me with torture,

go ahead and chop off my legs first.

And then, you can ask me.

That's easy.

Chop off his legs.

No.

He's a headstrong person.

If you really hurt him,

he'll keep his mouth shut.

Madam.

It's rare to find a flower expert like him.

It's a waste to kill him.

Fine. You You.

Tell the kitchen to treat Young Master Duan well.

If he can impart me with valuable knowledge,

we'll treat him well.

But if you can't do that...

Come with me.

Young Master Duan, Dali Kingdom has many camellia flowers.

But compare those flowers to mine,

I'm certain my flowers are no less beautiful.

People of Dali don't plant

these sort of wild camellia flowers.

How dare you say that these are just wildflowers.

How very bold of you.

Please calm down, Madam.

These flowers are growing in Jiangnan,
and they are not properly taken care of.

So, of course, there are only a few colors that blossom here.

That is why they look cheap.

In Dali,

there's a kind of camellia
called Eighteen Scholars.

Have you heard about it before?

For this "Eighteen Scholars",

a single stalk can have up to 18 flowers on them.

And each flower is in a different color.

There won't be any mixed colors.

And the shape of those 18 flowers

will all be different too.

They are each beautiful in their own way.

They'll bloom together,

and they'll wilt together.

Have you seen it before?

And one species even better than that

is called the Thirteen Princes.

Following that
are the Eight Immortals, Maid from Heaven,

Three Musketeers, and the Two Qiaos.

The blossoms must be pure in color.

If the blossom is mixed with other colors,

it'll lose its value.

Why has he never told me about this before?

Madam.

These flowers are rare species, to begin with.

If they were growing under
the Nineteen Peaks of Cang Mountain in Dali,

they would certainly blossom splendidly.

But Jiangnan is a humid place.

If you have an expert to take of them,

I'm sure they'll be able to bloom to their full potential.

Are you saying that you are the flower expert?

What do you think, Madam?

Madam?

Do you think I'm qualified?

You really opened my eyes when you told me

about the types of camellias just now.

Before this,

I had thought both of these white camellias
were called Full Moon.

I had no idea that one was actually
called Variegata di Bologna

and the other one was called
Beauty Dressed in Mourning White.

But, how do you differentiate them?

Please enlighten me.

Madam.

A white blossom with black speckled spots on it

is called the Full Moon.

The black spots represent the crates on the moon.

If the white blossom

has two black spots in the shape of an olive pit,

it's called the Bewitching Eyes.

That's a good name.

White blossoms with red spots on their petals

are called Variegata di Bologna.

If the white petals have strokes of red and green,

then it is the Beauty Dressed in Mourning White.

But if there are too many red stripes,

then it's another different kind.

Think about it.

A beauty must be quiet and gentle like yourself.

And a beauty will not scratch their own face.

The bird must have accidentally scratched her face

when it was playing with the flowers.

That is why it has to have a shade of green in it too.

The green represents the green parrot.

But if it's full of red stripes,

that means it fights with others every day.

How can it be deemed a beauty then?

You are mocking me!

Madam.

I wouldn't dare.

May I ask how did I offend you?

I don't know who told you about my stories

that called for such humiliating words from you.

Who said that women who know martial arts

can't be beautiful?

What's so good about being quiet and gentle?

Madam.

I was only speaking from the general point of view.

I'm sure that there are

many beautiful and gentle women

who know martial arts.

Are you saying that I'm not gentle or proper?

You know yourself best, Madam.

I can't possibly judge you.

But you forced someone

to kill his wife and marry another.

A proper and kind person

would certainly not do such a thing.

Duan Yu.

You are from Dali.

And your surname is Duan.

I should've killed you.

I'll spare you for now.

You'll be tasked with taking care
of all the flowers in this villa.

If one is dead,

I'll chop off your hand.

If two is dead,

I'll chop off both of your hands.

What if every flower stays alive?

If all of them stay alive,

I want you to grow me other types of camellia.

For instance, Eighteen Scholars,

Thirteen Princes, Eight Immortals,

Maid from Heaven, Three Musketeers,

and the Two Qiaos.

I want one of each type.

If you can't do that,

I'll gouge out your eyes.

These types of flowers are rare, even in Dali.

How can I find them easily in Jiangnan?

I think you better kill me now.

You want to chop off my hands and gouge out my eyes.

What torture.

It seems you would prefer to die, after all!

This is a good place

to grow this rare breed of flowers.

Ming.

You said you overheard some news about him?

some news about him?

A few days ago, Madam
ran into Second Young Master Gong Ye.

He said that Young Master Murong
went to the Shaolin Temple on Song Mountain.

Why did he go there?

Second Young Master Gong Ye said

an old monk from Shaolin Temple died in Dali.

They are accusing
the Murong clan of murdering him.

So they want an explanation
from Young Master Murong.

If he can't convince them otherwise,

are they going to retaliate?

Since she has found out about this,

why did she come back?

Why didn't she go to help him?

I'm not sure, Miss.

I think it's because Madam doesn't like him.

Even if she doesn't like him,

he is still one of our own.

If the Murong Clan is humiliated,

it won't be good for the Wang clan either.

Who planted camellia here?

Miss Deity.

- You...
- We agreed on three years.

But we meet again today.

Get up now.

Miss Deity.

Ever since I became your disciple in the rock cave that day,

I already feel very fortunate.

I never thought

that I would be able to see your true looks
with my very own eyes today.

Deities do actually exist.

Didn't you say that my mother pardoned him?

Why is he still here?

He said that he knows
how to take care of camellia.

And Madam believes in his nonsense.

So she had him stay and become a gardener.

Silly scholar.

Did you overhear us just now?

My name is Duan Yu.

I am from Dali.

I'm not a silly scholar.

I accidentally overheard your conversation just now.

But don't worry.

I won't tell anyone about what I heard.

Don't call me "Miss Deity".

If I can't address you as Miss Deity,

how should I address you then?

My surname is Wang.

You can call me Miss Wang.

No, that won't do.

There are many ladies
with the surname Wang in this world.

But you are like a deity.

How can I just address you as Miss Wang?

You are lucky

that my mother didn't chop off your legs.

You better get back to your flowers.

Stop chatting with me.

I still have important issues to discuss with her.

Miss Deity.

Shaolin Temple is a respectable organization
in the pugilist world.

There are a lot of skillful monks in the temple.

Most of them can perform
the Shaolin 72 Secret Arts.

Reverend Xuan Bei from Shaolin Temple was killed by an enemy

in the Shenjie Monastery of Luliangzhou.

All the monks think that
the Murong clan is behind it.

I think it is a bad idea for Young Master Murong

to risk himself like this.

How do you know about these things?

Have you met my cousin before?

I've never met Young Master Murong before.

But I've heard some things about him concerning

Reverend Xuan Bei.

If you want to find out more,

how about...

Why don't we find a place in private

so that I can give you a more detailed report?

The waterway is indeed complicated.

My head is dizzy from it.

Is there anybody inside?

Please announce our arrival.

I am Qiao Feng from the Beggars' Sect.

I would like to meet Young Master Murong.

I have important things to discuss with him.

There's no need to be so civil.

Let's just head inside and capture him.

You have great sword skills.

But why did you interfere?

I heard Chief Qiao from Beggars' Sect

has extraordinary martial arts skills.

It looks like the rumor is true.

You are too kind, Senior.

May I ask for your name?

And who are you to Young Master Murong?

I am the adviser to the Tibetan ruler, Jiu Mo Zhi.

Young Master Murong's father

was a dear friend of mine.

Now, my friend is dead,

and the young master is not here too.

I've been waiting for days.

It's time for me to leave.

Everybody loves beautiful flowers and women.

Back then, Li Bai used peony

to describe Consort Yang's beauty.

But while peonies are beautiful,

they don't cry, pout, or smile.

It's far from being a real beauty.

You always say that I'm beautiful.

I don't know if you are telling the truth.

You are a ravishing beauty.

Has no one ever

complimented you on your beautiful looks?

In this Mandarava Villa,

besides my mother,
there are only other maids and female servants.

They only know me as their young mistress.

They don't care about my looks.

What about the people outside?

When they see such a beautiful girl

who looks like a deity,

shouldn't they compliment you and bow to you?

I've never been outside before.

My mother doesn't allow me to leave.

What about Young Master Murong?

Has Young Master Murong never complimented you for your looks?

He... He is often busy.

He doesn't have much free time.

When we were together,
we would either discuss martial arts

or the issues of the country.

I... I hate martial arts.

What a coincidence.

I hate martial arts too. When I was home,

my uncle and my father forced me to learn it.

I refused.

So I left home.

I only read those books and scriptures

to spend more time with him.

If he doesn't understand something,

I can explain it to him.

Why do you have to do that?

Can't he read them himself?

He is my cousin.

We rarely have visitors.

Ever since my uncle passed away,

things have been tense
between my mother and my aunt.

Even my cousin is no longer allowed to visit.

What about your father?

My father passed away a long time ago.

I've never seen him.

Chief, we've asked some of the servants.

They said that it had been months
since Young Master Murong left.

And he has yet to return since.

Chief, the waterway in this area
is well-developed and complex.

If Murong Fu really wants to hide from us,

it'll be hard for us to find him
in a short amount of time.

The Murong clan has a reputation to uphold.

Even if he was involved in Chief Ma's incident,

he has no reason to hide.

Branch Leader Quan also said

that Reverend Xuan Bei from Shaolin Temple

was killed by the technique
that he was famous for.

Now, Shaolin Temple

is suspecting that Murong Fu
is behind the incident as well.

Well, I hope that Murong Fu

is a responsible man who dares
to own up to his actions, as you said, Chief.

And not a coward who hides and cowers.

That would make him laughing stock.

I hope so too.

I want to pay a visit to Shaolin Temple

to check on Reverend Xuan Bei

and hear their thoughts on this matter.

Miss.

I still don't know your name.

My name is Wang Yu Yan.

Wang Yu Yan?

Wang.

Yu.

Yan.

These are the words.

A wonderful name.

You are kind, gentle, and amiable.

I'll remember such a beautiful name.

Of course, it's better to have a good name.

Your name is Duan Yu.
Do you have a good reputation?

- I think you are just fishing for fame...
- "Fishing" Yu.

If I can see you smile like this every day,

I will not ask for anything else in this world.

He is always very serious and proper.

He would never

talk about silly topics with me.

He is a descendant of the royal family, Murong,
of the late Yan state.

But hundreds of years have passed since.

Why does he still have to cling to such matters?

Wouldn't it be better for him

to live his life freely like a commoner?

He always treats me like his little sister.

He thinks that besides studying and martial arts,

I know nothing else.

He doesn't even know

that I only studied those books for his sake.

That I only memorized
those martial arts techniques for him.

If it wasn't for him,

I would rather

play musical instruments

and write calligraphy.

Does he really not know
that you have done all of this

for his sake?

Of course, he knows that I treat him well.

He treats me very well too.

But

our relationship is merely
like a relationship between siblings.

All right.

We've chatted so much.

But we haven't gotten to the point yet.

Why is Shaolin Temple faulting him
for what happened?

The abbot of Shaolin Temple
is known as Abbot Xuan Ci.

He has a junior called Xuan Bei.

Reverend Xuan Bei is an expert in

the Vajra technique.

When he

went to Dali,

he was killed by an enemy.

And he was killed by the very technique

that he was most skilled in.

That is why everyone is saying

that the culprit must be the Murong clan,
who knows the technique.

A technique called...

"Fight fire with fire".

What you said makes sense.

But this is a difficult technique to master.

I don't think he knows how.

But don't tell him about this.

If he hears this,

he'll be furious.

This is terrible!

Miss, Madam has given orders

to cut off the right hands

of Zhu and Bi

as punishment

for trespassing into Mandarava Villa.

What should we do, Miss Wang?

We need to think of a way

to save them.

Where are they?

They've been sent to the fertilizer room.

I begged Madam Yan to hold on for now.
It's still not too late

for us to beg Madam Wang to change her mind.

Miss Wang!

Mother!

Are you here

to talk about the girls from the Murong clan?

If you are,

save your breath.

Mother, Zhu and Bi

didn't come here on purpose this time.

Please forgive them.

They didn't come here on purpose?

You are afraid that your cousin

will treat you coldly
if I cut off their hands, right?

Mother, my cousin is your nephew.

Why do you hate him so much?

Even if my aunt offended you,

you don't have to hate my cousin so much.

How do you know that your aunt offended me?

You hate her family so much.

Of course, it makes sense to think
that she must have offended you somehow.

You have never allowed me to leave the villa too.

And neither do you allow
outsiders to visit this place.

I don't know the reason.

My aunt has already passed away.

Why do you have to hold a grudge against her?

Actually, I'm doing this for your own good.

There are too many evil people
in this world right now.

You are still young.

It's best

to stay away from those people.

We have a new gardener.

He has a slick tongue. He's not a good man.

Don't talk to him. If he talks to you,

ask your maid to kill him at once.

Don't talk to her. I can see

that you are a kind and loving person.

You'll be easily taken advantage of.

Go on now.

Mother.

Please spare Zhu and Bi this once.

You can order them not to come back anymore

no matter the reason.

I've never

taken back my words.

It's pointless for you to beg me.

I know why you hate my aunt

and cousin.

Yan'er.

What do you know? Tell me.

She blamed you for killing without reason.

You offended the local government

as well as many people in the pugilist world.

That is the Wang clan's business.

It has nothing to do with the Murong clan.

The Murong clan has been dreaming

of restoring Yan
for over the past hundreds of years.

They want to convince those martial arts experts

to work for the Murong clan.

Unfortunately,

they've even offended

the Beggars' Sect and Shaolin now.

My cousin definitely did not kill

Reverend Xuan Bei from Shaolin.

- He doesn't even know...
- Those girls

came to tell us about this

because they want me to help him.

Murong Fu is going to Shaolin with Deng Bai Chuan.

What's the use of that?

- They've overestimated themselves.
- Mother.

Please think of a way to save him.

Your aunt once said this, didn't she?

That their literature collection
in their Huanshi Library

is superior to those in our Langhuan Jade Cave.

Fine. Then let her son

prove his worth in Shaolin Temple.

- Mother, my cousin...
- Leave now.

Mother, cousin...

You are becoming more and more unbridled.
Leave.

- Miss, what's wrong?
- Don't talk to me.

Miss Wang, even if Madam Wang
refused to change her mind,

we have to think of a way to save them.

I can't save Zhu and Bi.

My cousin is in danger, but she won't help either.

Miss Wang.

You know a lot of martial arts skills.

Have you never thought

about sneaking out to save him yourself?

I do know a lot of martial arts skills.

But it's all theoretical.
I don't know how to use them.

Besides, how will I be able to save him?
My mother would never allow me to leave.

Of course, your mother won't allow you to do that.

But you can sneak out, can't you?

I ran away from home in secret once.

When I went home,

my parents didn't do anything to me.

You are right.

I can sneak out to help him.

Even if she scolds me after I come back,

it doesn't matter.

But...

I don't know martial arts.

If he does encounter a dangerous enemy,

I'm afraid I won't be able to help him.

How can you say that?

You know so many things about martial arts.

When he is fighting,

you can give him pointers and guidance.

It'll be a great help to him.

A bystander sees through things better.

But...

I've never left this place before.

I don't know where Shaolin Temple is.

Don't worry, Miss Wang.

If anything happens along the way,

I'll take care of it.

Miss Wang.

Stop hesitating.

Think about it.

If they really cut off

Miss Zhu's and Miss Bi's hands,

your cousin will blame you.

You'll stay here forever

and never get to see him again.

I can't let that happen!

Come with me.

Help!

Help...

Madam Yan.

Let go of us.

Or else, Young Master will surely
teach you a lesson when he returns.

- Just you wait.
- I'll go first.

Madam Yan!

My mother said that she has
something important to ask them.

She asked you to let go of them first.

I'll get a confirmation from Madam first then.

Miss.

Sorry about this.

Stop!

What are you doing?

You trespassed into Mandarava Villa.

I'll tie you up

and chop you up together with them
to be made into fertilizer!

Young Master Duan, no!

- Are you all right?
- I'm fine.

Miss Wang, Young Master Duan,
thank you for your help.

Enough. Let's go.

Miss, you can't leave!

The madam from Murong clan
said that your mother was unfaithful...

You are so noisy.

Let's go.

I'm sorry.

Miss Wang.

Why don't you leave with us?

Madam will punish you anyway when you return.

It would be better for you to leave with us.

Yes, Miss Wang. Come with us.

Why did you learn the despicable

Great Energy Dissolving Skill?

It's not the Great Energy Dissolving Skill.

It's called the Six Solar Snow-Melt Skill.

It's derived from the One-finger Death Touch

and Six Pulse Excalibur techniques
of the Duan clan.

It's different from
the Great Energy Dissolving Skill.

One is good, and the other is evil.
They are not the same at all.

I apologize. I was ignorant.

I know of the Duan clan from Dali's

One-finger Death Touch and Six Pulse Excalibur.

But this is my first time hearing

about the Six Solar Snow-Melt Skill.

I'll have to learn more from you.

Miss Wang, Young Master Duan.

Let's go now.

- Or else, it'll be too late.
- Come on. Let's go!

Look.

The light ahead is the Swallow's Nest.

Miss Wang.

Over there.

In this life,

I'm afraid there will be no other sights like this.

With the very people here tonight
at this very moment

with this very view.

On this lake,

how nice will it be
if we can never reach the light

on the opposite bank.

Young Master Duan,
you are dreaming of the impossible again.

Miss, don't worry.

Young Master Murong
has always been able to turn things around.

He has never been in any real trouble.

Shaolin Temple has upheld
their reputation for centuries.

They are a force to be reckoned with.

I hope that the monks will be rational

and are willing to listen to him.

I'm just worried

that he'll get into a fight with them

because of his temper.

Every time I wish upon a shooting star,

it never works.

(Miss Wang must be wishing
for Young Master Murong)

(to be safe and sound)

(and a safe journey ahead.)
