All language subtitles for [eng] HUANG MIAO 2023

(Ancestral Hall of the Lin Family)

We are here to shelter from the rain.

Sorry.

I'm here to shelter from the rain too.

You shouldn't walk on this path at night.

Why not? Are there any bandits?

The living shouldn't come
to Huang Miao Village.

The dead shouldn't walk
on the Netherworld Path.

You are walking on the
path to the Netherworld.

To the Netherworld?

Could it be...

(Spirit Tablet of Wu Liang, a Musician)

This is not mine.

This is not mine either.

(Spirit Tablet of You Li, a Craftsman)

None of them are mine.

(Huang Miao Village's Tales of Mystery)

Miss.

Have you seen my spirit tablet?

Qiushui.

Be careful!

You dare to come?

I'll hit you.

Master.

You...

Oh, my gosh.

What happened? Did you have a nightmare?

I saw dead people in my dream.

Dead people are not scary at all.

You're a Taoist who
shouldn't fear the dead.

The most terrifying is living
people doing evil deeds.

(Mourning)

Where are we?

This place is so vast.

I can't see a single village here.

Senior.

What are you looking at?

You...

(Longevity)

Stop.

Let's take a break and have some fruit.

Wait here.

I'll get you something to eat.

Uncle.

You died so suddenly.

Uncle.

Whose family do you belong to?

I've never seen you before.

Well...

The Eternal Flame is out.

There must be something wrong.

What's wrong with it?

The wind blew it out.

No.

This is an unusual death.

You mean my mother was killed by someone?

How about this?

You give me the food

and I'll tell you the details.

So you're a beggar.

How could you say that?

I...

I'm not a beggar.

Butler Huang.

Pack the food for him.

Wanhua.

Just ignore him.

It's okay. No one else
will eat the food anyway.

Let's do a good deed on behalf of Madam.

Keep going.

(Filial Piety) (Mourning)

(Longevity)

Thank you.

Let's go.

(Longevity)

Master.

Trust me.

Last night,

I saw that dead woman

in my dream.

So?

Did she say anything in your dream?

I'm sure

she didn't die a natural death.

Then you should report to the police.

But the police

won't believe that she was in my dream.

Master.

You always say

if we are helped by others,
we should also help them.

That lady gave us food.

We should help her.

Am I right, Master?

Priest.

Master Huang wants to see you.

Please.

Please.

After Second Madam died,

Master Huang was so sad that he got ill

and could only lie in bed most of the time.

So he let Madam

take charge of all the business.

Madam had to take care of the family

and take charge of the
business at the same time.

Why did she

die so suddenly?

(Wang Mansion)

Master Huang, they are here.

Actually, when Hanxiang found her,

she was already dead.

But I still asked a doctor
from the County Hospital

to come to see her.

The doctor said there was nothing unusual.

Only by dissecting her body

can we find the real cause of her death.

She is my student. Her ancestors
were post-mortem examiners.

She's inherited her family tradition

and studied western autopsy.

So she is very good at this.

Dissecting

her body?

So she would

cut open her body?

More than that.

Cutting open her body is not enough.

We'll have to cut her body into pieces

and examine them.

No.

Examine the body...

You can't do this to her.

It's not a bad thing.

We are trying to find
the cause of her death.

She is dead

and deserves to rest
in peace and be buried.

I won't allow you

to do that to my wife's body

just because of what you said.

It's not a bad thing.

We have to perform an autopsy.

Autopsy.

Stop.

Legend has it

that when a person dies,

there is still a breath in his chest.

If this breath is mixed with hatred,

the dead person

won't rest in peace.

Are you saying...

(Mourning)

Once the corpse
transformation happens to her,

she will come back to life

and keep attacking people like a beast

until that breath runs out.

The resurrected body

will first go to

the closest person to her.

That means

the Huang family is in great danger.

Master Huang.

Do you understand?

Yes.

You are a bunch of frauds.

You're insulting us.

This is so unacceptable.

You can insult her,

but you can't insult me

or my master.

Shut up.

Master Huang, I heard it's a local custom

to hold flaming torches near a new tomb

for three consecutive
nights after one is buried.

It's called Brightness Ritual.

You may not believe me.

But please, before
having Brightness Ritual,

take this talisman with you

and burn it at the grave.

Father, don't believe them.

They are a bunch of beggars.

That's right.

If something bad happens,

the stupid talisman is not
as useful as a donkey leg.

Why are you burning it now?

You

are too naive.

Not everyone is trustworthy.

We're going to have
Brightness Ritual anyway.

We could burn it at the grave.

Cuigu said it's useless.

No need to take it to the grave.

Don't worry.

We have Cuigu.

Even if something bad happens,

she can handle it.

So you can do everything?

Of course.

Hou Quan, this...

Oh no! The corpse was stolen!

(Mourning)

(Longevity)

(Mourning)

(Mourning)

(Mourning)

Madam.

I'm Quan! I'm Quan!

Let him go!

Let him go!

Let him go!

Hou Quan!

Help!

Help! Help!

- What happened?
- Madam...

Madam...

What happened?

Help!

Shudun. Shudun. Calm down.

Madam.

Where is Hou Quan?

Hou Quan.

He's killed. He's killed.

Madam has become a zombie.

She has become a zombie.

What should we do now, Brother?

- Help!
- It's okay now. Stop running.

Go find Cuigu.

(Jia Yin) (Ding Mao) (Jia Chen)

I've invited the Six Ding
Gods and the Six Jia Gods.

It's different this time.

They are all important guests.

(Jia Xu) (Jia Zi)

(Jia Xu) (Jia Zi)

(Jia Xu) (Jia Zi)

I will beat her to death.

She'll be flattened.

Go.

Go.

Go.

Go. Go. Go.

Go!

Attack her!

Go!

Don't be afraid.

I still have a trump card.

Demon Subduing Curse!

Wait a minute.

I'll make a fire.

Wait a minute.

Screw you!

(Ding Mao) (Jia Chen) (Ding He)

Father.

Let's go.

Father, are you alright?

Father.

Changgeng! Qiushui! Use the ink fountain.

Master, it didn't work!

Qiushui!

Brother.

Go take a look.

Is that Madam?

Go.

Go and see if it's your mother.

- It’s on fire.
- Oh no. Let’s go.

Where does the fire come from?

All right, let's go.

Hurry up.

This is too creepy.

It's my fault.

Sorry that I didn't trust you.

I'm so sorry.

Please forgive me.

Never mind.

Priest, please help me

investigate my wife's death.

You will be handsomely
rewarded if you help me.

Xiao'an.

Don't go out in the next few days.

Do your best to help Priest.

Father.

Do you really believe

Mother was killed by someone?

Priest is an expert.

Of course I believe him.

The doctor examined Mother's body.

He said there was nothing unusual.

You don't have to do a lot of things.

Why are you stopping them
from investigating the case?

Father, don't be angry.

Brother didn't mean it.

Father.

I...

I’m afraid you'll be cheated.

You're unhappy because you
can't go to the opera house now.

Alright.

I've made up my mind.

Mr. Huang.

Please go with me.

Sir.

What can I do for you?

Qiushui is to perform an autopsy on Madam.

It's none of my business.

Your father asked you to cooperate with me.

Then go to my father.

You...

I'll go to your father.

Sorry about my brother.

Please forgive him.

By the way, if you need any help,

come to me.

I'll cooperate with you.

Where is the body?

This...

It turned into a zombie again?

That's impossible.

It's burnt.

Someone

doesn't want us to perform the autopsy.

It makes sense.

So

There must be something
wrong with the body.

The guy stole the body so quickly.

It must be done by one of
the people in this house.

Miss Huang.

Mr. Yao is missing.

Missing?

Yes, he disappeared last night.

I asked the servants to
look for him at his house.

But his neighbors said he hadn't come back.

Who is Mr. Yao?

His name is Yao Datong.

He can perform Nuo opera.

Wherever there is a
celebration or a funeral,

he will be asked to perform.

He escaped because he committed the crime.

He must be the murderer.

Miss Huang.

Who was the first person

to know that Madam died?

Uncle Jiu, this is Hanxiang,

Madam's maid.

If you have any questions,

just ask her.

You lived with Madam?

Madam slept in the inner room.

I slept in another room.

That night,

did you hear any strange sound?

Madam screamed.

And that woke me up.

Then I went in her room to have a look.

Madam.

Madam.

Madam.

I ran out and called for help.

When everyone arrived,

Madam was dead.

You mean

there were two spiders in her bed?

One was riding on the other
when they were crawling?

I couldn't believe my eyes.

They were snake spiders.

You know that?

They are snake-faced spiders.

The bigger one is female

while the smaller one is the male.

One spider rode on the other.

The bigger one was not
carrying the smaller one.

They were mating.

Snake spiders

are incredibly fertile.

So they are mating

all the time.

If so, they will be found everywhere.

Not really.

Young snake spiders don't live long.

So there won't be many of them.

This is probably why

they mate crazily.

Stop.

Does the snake spider carry poison?

Yes.

The poison of the snake
spider can decompose people.

They will look horrible
when they are dying.

Wait.

Madam's corpse wasn't decomposing.

Right.

Before Madam was buried,

her body was intact.

Of course.

Madam wasn't killed by the poison.

If the two snake spiders had killed her,

they would have crawled into her head

and eaten her...

Her brain.

She's dead.

Why should we believe that you're right?

You...

You're a stupid girl.

Master.

I got it.

My mother told me

if a person was under one's sorcery,

the sorcery insects would
crawl into his stomach

and eat his organs.

Miss Huang.

Uncle Jiu. Miss Huang.

Master Huang said

we can't let Madam's grave be in a mess.

We should at least build a cenotaph.

Right.

I can't find Mr. Huang. So...

It's okay. I'll handle it.

Okay, these were Madam's clothes.

Take them.

Butler Huang. Butler Huang.

Give me the clothes.

I'll go with you.

Master.

Sorcery?

It's just our guess.

A lot of people

can perform sorcery in Miaojiang.

But we don't have any enemies.

Who would perform sorcery on my wife?

Madam had been taking charge
of the business for six years.

You know, business is war without bullets.

When she was doing business,

she must have made some enemies.

It makes sense.

Senior suspected

that Yao Datong was the murderer.

Him? Impossible.

He is good at martial arts,

but he didn't dare

to kill someone.

Yes.

Sorcery is difficult to master.

Can you elaborate on that?

Miss Huang.

The house of the one who
raises sorcery must be tidy.

After we're done with Madam’s business,

find a coffin to bury him.

Yes.

There shouldn't be a speck of dust.

Not even a spider web.

Everyone knows

Yao Datong

is a lazy man.

He never cleans his house.

Based on this, he is not the one.

After Second Madam died,

Master was so sad,

and Madam was

in charge of all business.

Everything

depends on Madam.

But,

why did she

pass away so suddenly?

(Filial piety)

I planned to visit it this afternoon.

But it seems it's not necessary now.

The dishes are getting cold.

Let's eat.

Okay.

It tastes good.

Seems like I've never seen your mother.

She passed away

six years ago.

I-I'm sorry.

My father loves my mother very much.

So after she passed away,

My father was sick too.

What about the business?

The Huang family is the
richest in Stone Gate.

There must be a lot of business.

Madam has been managing it all these years.

I knew it.

Huang Xiao'an is a playboy.

He can't do anything of worth, right?

Miss Huang.

This...

Move!

Abracadabra!

Am I disfigured?

Take a look.

Have some tea.

Coming, Coming, Coming,

Uncle Jiu, this way, please.

I almost forgot it.

Master asked you to move to the wing room.

Leave the main room to Uncle Jiu.

No need.

I'll stay in the wing room.

This is the Master's order.

No!

As the saying goes,

a heroine is not any inferior to a hero.

But Master said

that if you don't want to give up,

then go somewhere else to stay.

You can kill me but you can't humiliate me.

Don't think that women have no guts.

You want me to move to
the wing room, right?

OK.

Why is there a red bellyband missing?

I must have dropped it in the main room.

It would be humiliating

if the priest picked it up

and changed it into pants.

A grain of rice rushes to the end.

Move!

What happened?

He's insane.

So you want to send him away, right?

Master told me to do so.

All right, let him go first.

It's either him or you.

Alright, Shudun.

It's either him or you.

Stop it. I'll talk to my father.

Strange.

It wasn't scratched.

It seems to be bitten by something.

Impossible.

Master,

it was scratched by Hou Quan's nails.

How did it become a bite?

Butler,

do you have glutinous rice?

Yes. How much do you need?

Two taels are enough.

Spinning messily.

Uncle Jiu,

here's the glutinous rice you wanted.

OK.

You hurt your hand.

You mean this?

I accidentally cut it

many years ago,

Master, will Senior become a zombie?

You'll become a zombie!

There are spots now.

How can I meet people?

Changgeng.

Wrap his face now.

Butler, tell us about the Huang family.

I understand what you mean.

Madam

is strict in managing the family.

Many servants have been punished by her.

But they'd only be locked in the woodshed,

and starved for three or two days.

They wouldn't hate her so much to kill her.

Does anyone hate her so much?

If there is, it may be Mr. Huang.

Mr. Huang?

The one who sings...

It’s a long story.

He likes operas.

He had a lover, an actor.

Her name is Bai Shuixian.

(Phoenix Pavilion)

Bai Shuixian was a good
actor and beautiful.

She knew how to seduce people.

Mr. Huang wanted to marry her.

But she was an actor after all.

How could Madam agree?

I wonder

what Bai Shuixian said to Mr. Huang.

Last month,

Mr. Huang stole some money from home

and eloped with Bai Shuixian.

Madam was very angry about it

and sent someone to catch him.

She asked someone to beat her
and kicked her out of Stone Gate.

She announced the cancellation
of Mr. Huang's inheritance,

and handed over the family
business to Miss Huang.

Since then, Mr. Huang has
become more unrestrained.

He often stayed out all night.

But on the day before Madam passed away,

he suddenly came back
and had a fight with her.

How dare you throw things?

You unfilial son! Get lost!

Get lost!

I don't need you to kick me out.

I don't want to see you anymore.

I guess it's either for the inheritance

or for Baishuixian.

Someone doesn't want us to do the autopsy.

The doctor has checked but found nothing.

We didn't ask you to do anything.

Why are you stopping us from doing this?

It's a snake spider.

There shouldn't be a speck of dust.

Not even a spider web.

No wonder he's always been stopping us,

and didn't allow us to investigate.

Do you really suspect
that Mr. Huang did it?

Of course not.

That's good.

Call me if you need anything.

Master,

this is normal, right?

I see.

This is not corpse poison.

It wasn't scratched.

It seems to be bitten by something.

This is the poison of the snake spider.

The poison of the snake
spider can decompose people.

People will suffer a horrible death.

Oh no!

Master!

Qiushui.

Yes.

Prepare the needles.

Got it!

We can use needles to prick 13 acupoints
to help those who got sick from evils.

Master.

The needles starts from the Guigong.

The second needle goes to
Guixin, then the Guilei,

and Guixin.

Open your mouth.

Master.

The spots are still here.

Look at me, here.

The 13 Needles of GuiMen can only defer it.

It can't cure diseases
and detoxify your body.

It's a very horrible way to die.

The priority is to find the
person who poisoned you,

which is the murderer who killed Madam.

Could it be the one who sings opera?

We won't know it until we search his room.

Oh no.

How can I see Miss Huang in the future?

Isn't this good?

You look cute with this.

Gosh, look at the situation.

Don't joke about that.

Uncle Jiu.

We're playing a game, right? Master.

Yes, a game.

Here you are.

Shuixian.

I miss you so much, Shuixian.

Come, let me kiss you.

- Shuixian, Shuixian.
- Wait a minute.

- I...
- Kiss this.

What stinks?

Cuigu.

You still have the mood to drink?

Changgeng will become a zombie.

Zombie?

His face was scratched by Hou
Quan and he got corpse poison.

What should we do now?

We can use this as an excuse

to kick them out.

Master won't keep a zombie at home, right?

Father.

You can't keep them anymore.

But he got hurt because of me.

Kicking him out now?

Isn't that ungrateful?

You know how scary it was

when my mother became a zombie.

You keep him at home.

What if he gets mad and bites us?

That's right.

Master.

Are we really leaving?

Master has his own plan.

Sitting in rows to eat fruits. Fruits
are yummy, and then eat spicy ginger.

Spicy ginger is spicy and then eat loquat.
Loquat is good for defecating.

Tooting horns. The tip of
a horn can blow the sky.

Blow the sky.

Let's go.

Wanhua. Wanhua.

Junior, I-I feel I can't
hold on any longer.

Senior, don't be discouraged.

Master will find a way.

Junior, I-I hid some money at home.

I buried it under that
big pomegranate tree.

If I die, d-dig it out.

Senior, you're so nice to me.

Senior! Senior! Senior!

Bury it with me.

Otherwise, I won't rest assured.

We're done.

Junior, don't go. I'm scared.

(Phoenix Pavilion)

Who is the leader?

I’m the leader.

Can I have a word with you?

Kick her out of Stone Gate? Nonsense!

Shuixian was beaten to death by them.

Does she have any relatives?

Relatives? No.

She didn’t have many friends in our troupe.

In this case,

it's very likely that Huang Xiao'an
tried to avenge Bai Shuixian.

Master.

For the departure of the annoying priest.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Master.

When Huang Xiao'an is not at home,

we go to search his room secretly.

Master Huang said

it's impossible to keep no
trace of raising sorcery.

(Qinghuawu)

What's wrong?

I think someone went over just now.

What? You must be mistaken.

Bad news! Mr. Huang is dead!

Help!

Mr. Huang is dead! Help!

Priest, look.

What happened?

When we patrolled here,

we saw someone singing there.

He fell when he was singing.

And then I felt he wasn't breathing.

Mr. Huang. Mr. Huang.

Brother!

How could this happen?

Xiao'an.

Master.

Father.

Xiao'an.

Son, what happened?

Who did this? Who!

Be careful.

Be careful.

These are snake spiders.

We have to burn the body. Hurry!

Great! Fire!

Fire!

- Shut up!
- It’s on fire!

It’s on fire!

You witch!

Come, tie her up.

Take her away.

No.

Let go of me!

Father.

Help!

Master! Master! It's not me!

Fire! Fire!

Fire!

(Huang's Grand Ancestral Hall)

Master, Y-You can't treat
an innocent person unjustly.

Treat you unjustly?

In this mansion,

only you know these strange tricks.

Besides, you've been
close to Xiao'an lately.

He died after drinking tonight.

Who else could it be except you?

But I'm a witch, not a sorceress.

How can I know how to use sorcery?

You said you can do everything.

Don't say you've forgotten.

I'm just bluffing. Just
for making a living.

Master, the liquid wax you wanted is ready.

Pour the liquid wax and light it up.

This is the punishment for using sorcery.

Pour it on her.

What are you doing? Help!

Help!

Uncle Jiu, Uncle Jiu, help me.

I'll do anything for you. Uncle Jiu.

No.

I'm yours.

Priest, why did you do this?

After she detoxifies Changgeng,

I will send her to the security team.

Yes, Father.

Just give Cuigu to Uncle Jiu.

No way.

She killed my wife and my son.

No.

I just want to tear her into pieces.

Isn't it too easy for her to hand
her over to the security team?

How could you think of that?

But you shouldn't have
punished her by yourself.

This is the Huang family.

I have the final say.

Butler Huang.

Should we pay the priest?

Catch him!

Hurry!

You know it.

I was just trying to
survive by saying that.

Don't expect me to do anything for you.

Not even to be your wife.

Can you save my disciple now?

I didn't poison him.

How can you believe it?

I swear if I poisoned him,

I'll be poisoned to death.

Oh, I know a senior.

In terms of the sorcery,
If he is in second place,

no one dares to be the first.

So people call him King of Sorcery.

Can he save Changgeng?

We can try.

Let's go.

Let's go.

My family has been witches for generations.

But me,

maybe I'm not gifted.

I've been learning from my
mother for more than 20 years.

I didn't learn anything.

It was my fault.

Actually, I was the liar.

Didn't you invite the Six Ding Gods
and the Six Jia Gods here that day?

What?

In fact, it's just a trick.

My incense was made of special materials.

When I rang the bell and played the drum,

I could hypnotize you.

Illusion?

I saved you

not only because I wanted
you to detoxify Changgeng,

but because I was suspecting Master Huang.

About what?

He knows a lot about
sorcery and snake spiders.

Indeed.

But I don't understand

why he killed his wife and son.

Nobody knows.

In this family,

only Miss Huang is a good person.

Will she be in danger?

I asked Qiushui to report to the
security team before we left.

She'll be fine for the time being.

I’m afraid he can’t even tell

how many sorcery insects he raised.

This is his nest.

Maybe there are sorcery
insects hidden somewhere.

You must be careful.

We can't stay here any longer. Let's go.

Okay, I'll listen to you.

Hey, Uncle Jiu.

Uncle Jiu.

These jars are used for
raising sorcery insects.

Don't touch them.

What kind of sorcery need such a big jar?

It could be any sorcery.

Maybe a dog or a pig.

You call me a pig?

King of Sorcery, it's me. I'm Cuigu.

Cuigu?

Look, this is the necklace
you gave to my grandma.

Don't bother. I knew you
when you showed the teeth.

Is Master Huang Huang Hongnian?

Yes, that's him.

It's not strange that he has sorceries.

Huang Hongnian is a sorcerer,

a powerful sorcerer.

He raised golden silkworm sorcery.

Golden silkworm?

Legend has it that people who
raise this kind of sorcery

can get inexhaustible wealth.

It’s all nonsense.

The golden silkworm sorcery is
different from other sorcery.

It may backfire.

Huang Hongnian probably
thought he had wealth,

and he didn't need to raise it anymore.

So he threw the sorcery
book to the roadside.

This is called marrying a golden silkworm.

Wasn't he afraid that
someone would pick it up?

Just pick it up. It's no big deal.

But those who pick it up
can learn the sorcery.

Do you think being a sorcerer is good?

The price of making sorcery

is living a lonely life

or being poor forever.

They must be lonely, poor or demons.

Let bygones be bygones.

King of Sorcery, the antidote
to the snake spider...

Senior. Senior!

Senior! Let go of me!

Senior!

The weather is dry. Beware of fire.

(Zimo Tea House)

Senior, don't come over.

Don't come over.

There's no moonlight.
What can I do with it?

Qiushui is a puppy.

(Zimo Tea House)

Stinky Senior.

(Zimo Tea House)

You hurt me.

(The Order of Five Kinds
of Harm rules every spirit)

(The thunder rumbles) (The dragon and tiger
go out) (I command you to follow my order)

You struck the wrong person.

What are you laughing at?

(Zimo Tea House)

(Zimo Tea House)

I'm done playing with you.

Help! Help!

Help! Help!

Master!

I've kept these two snake spiders
for more than 30 years.

They must be much better
than what you've met.

Let them bite your disciple.

Combat poison with poison?

Yes.

Take some.

Thank you, sir.

Do you know who took Master
Huang's golden silkworm?

Who?

The concubine of Huang Hongnian,

Qian Fengju.

Second Madam?

After Second Madam died,

Master Huang was so sad

that he entrusted all his property

to his wife.

My father loved my mother very much.

So not long after she died,
my father got sick too.

Strange.

This is not corpse poison.

Not a bit of dust is allowed.

Not even a single thread of a spider's web.

Stinky Senior, I won't
play with you anymore.

You hit me so hard.

Fire! Great!

It's either him or you.

It's you.

Go! Kill Master Huang!

Don't go.

Young man, can you not hit me?

At least don't hit my face.

See? This is the real master.

Hit him!

- Are you alright?
- Master.

- Master.
- I'm fine.

Go to the Huang's mansion now.

I'll leave this to you.

It's you who was making trouble.

You're really bad.

Bro, give me a cigarette.

Taking advantage again?

I heard there have been zombies
in the Huang's mansion lately.

I don't know if it's true.

What are you afraid of?

If I see a zombie,

I'll shoot that...

Z-Zombie?

We were praising you.

Who is it?

Who is it?

Captain, I don't think he's human.

Go!

Ghost!

Changgeng, is that you?

He's coming for me.

Wanhua, go! Go!

No, I'm not leaving.

Go! Wanhua, go!

Changgeng.

So magical?

Master.

Get up.

Handcuff him.

It has nothing to do with him.

This was all arranged by Miss Huang.

Master, you must be mistaken.

Priest,

you said Wanhua arranged it.

Do you have any evidence?

Is this yours?

Yes.

This is the bracelet
Wanhua used to wear when she was young.

But why do you have it?

(Mourning)

This is her tool of hypnosis.

Hypnosis?

It was Cuigu who reminded me.

On the way to the Sorcery King's Cave,

Cuigu told me

the so-called God Summoning
was just an illusion.

Which immediately reminded me of Changgeng.

It was scratched by Hou Quan's fingernails.

How did it become bite marks?

You must have inhaled too much miasma

and hallucinated.

The resurrection of Hou Quan's corpse
was also an illusion you created.

The wound on Changgeng's face

was not scratched by Hou Quan's nails,

but bitten by a snake spider.

If I'm not mistaken,

there must've been something
like knockout drugs

on your handkerchief like Cuigu.

Then you rang the bell secretly

and hypnotized all the people there.

Then you let the snake
spiders bite Changgeng.

In the end, you set fire
to burn Hou Quan's body

and destroyed the evidence.

Is that true?

Yes.

Wanhua. Wanhua.

This is no joke.

Don't talk nonsense.

I am not.

I did everything.

Arrest her!

Don't come over!

Madam and Huang Xiao'an

were both killed by
snake spiders set by me.

But Master Huang is your biological father.

How could you seize him too?

My biological father? Does he deserve it?

My biological father was Yang Haiyan.

Before I was born,

he was murdered by him.

He killed my father with poisonous bugs.

In that case, your mother
was already pregnant at that time.

Yes, my mother was just pregnant with me.

That's why she chose to marry him
despite the humiliation.

But he didn't know

when I was 13,

my mother told me the truth.

She gave me a sorcery book

and asked me to avenge my father's death.

But Huang Hongnian knows this well.

It's hard to kill him with sorcery alone.

So my mother convinced Madam

to invite Cuigu to our home
and make offerings to her.

Since then,

I often read her ancestral secret books

and learned magic secretly.

If you only want revenge,

why did you kill those innocent people?

He seized my mother, so I killed his wife.

He took my father's property,

so I'll kill his whole family.

What about Hou Quan?

He was indeed innocent.

But when he was burying the others,

he saw the snake spider
crawling out of the coffin.

I was afraid it would
cause unnecessary trouble,

so I had to kill him.

That's not right.

What happened to the zombie of Madam?

It wasn't Madam.

I bribed Yao Datong
to make him disguise as Madam.

No wonder!

No wonder Yao Datong went missing.

That night, Yao Datong
was under my control,

but he suddenly caught fire all over.

You set the fire too, didn't you?

Yes.

His festered skin

is made with ointment.

Setting fire in a distance!

You learned that from my secret book, too.

And I also stole Yao Datong's body.

Someone didn't want us to examine the body.

Once we do, we'll find out he's a man,

and your plot will be exposed.

You're really scheming and meticulous.

Have you been using me from the beginning?

If you hadn't meddled

and interfered with your master,

my plan would have been
successful long ago.

Huang Wanhua, you fail.

Even if you kill him today,

you won't end up well.

Really?

Be careful.

Where is she?

Wanhua, why did you bring me here?

You are my daughter.

I am your father.

Father.

You still want to lie to me
even if you're dying?

God, what have I done wrong?

Help! Help!

A tree thousands of years
old, a stomacher never washed,

a coffin with a living person in,

fresh beast bones, a dusty bronze mirror,

and an ever-burning lamp.

What a place of Seven Ominous Things!

My red stomacher.

No wonder I couldn't find it.
Why is it hung here?

Master.

Don't go in.

This is the Soul Locking Formation
of Seven Ominous Things.

You'll be trapped inside once you're in.

Who is Master fighting with?

With the illusion.

The illusion?

Yes.

The formation and magic
created an illusion.

I don't know what Uncle Jiu is seeing.

But if this continues,

he will die soon from exhaustion.

My Uncle Jiu!

Master!

Don't go in.

You can't find him even if you go in.

You'll only fall into your own illusion.

It's no big deal. I'll just shoot her.

Thank God your shooting skills are poor.

If the creator of the formation dies,

the formation will never be broken.

If that's the case,
there's nothing we can do.

She learned everything
from your secret book.

You should have a solution.

It's just that I didn't learn very well.

But I know

the lamp on her head is
the eye of the formation.

The lamp oil is special
and it's hallucinating.

If you put out the fire, all
the illusions will disappear.

But that's useless to know.

How can we put out the fire
if we can't get through the formation?

Let me try again.

Captain, you can't do this!

Could that be...

You're amazing.

- I'm always good at shooting.
- Uncle Jiu!

- Uncle Jiu.
- Master.

Please be alright, Uncle Jiu.

Master Huang is still inside the coffin.
Go save him!

Okay.

Zombie Sorcery.

Zombie Sorcery? What Zombie Sorcery?

Simply put, he is still alive.

But due to all kinds of toxins,

he has lost his mind
and become bloodthirsty.

He's very powerful to attack.

Let go of her!

He's like a walking corpse now.

He doesn't feel the pain at all.

I know where his weakness is.

Uncle Jiu.

Changgeng!

Guards, take him to the hospital.

No, he's seriously poisoned.

He can't be saved.

Wanhua! My daughter!

I'm not your daughter. I'm not!

You are my daughter.

I am your father.

- Take her back.
- Yes.

Miss Huang.

Butler Huang, are you enjoying the rain?

You are really in a good mood.

Uncle Jiu, there's one
thing I don't understand.

How did you start to suspect Butler Huang?

(Stone Gate)

Master Huang said

Huang Wanhua was his
child until he was dying.

Which made me suspicious.

When I went to the Sorcery King's
Cave to return the snake spiders,

I passed by Yangxi.

So I asked around about Yang Haiyan.

And I found something unexpected.

(Stone Gate)

Maybe that's the heaven's vengeance, slow

but sure.

Everything comes from the heart.
If the heart doesn't have evil thoughts,

the illusions cannot be created.

There are no ghosts in the world.

Humans are the demons.

Just stop here.

Do your job well

and take care of the people here.

Yes.

Wait for me.

(The End)

(Exciting easter eggs at the end)
(Don't leave yet)

Yang Haiyan

never existed.

Didn't Huang Hongnian deserve to die?

To get Ju, he set a trap

to make Ju's father own him a lot of money.

Without him,

Ju and I were supposed to be together.

Ju was forced to marry Huang Hongnian.

I changed my appearance,
cut off my sixth finger,

and became a servant
in the Huang's mansion.

I became a butler with the help of Ju.

But...

Ju and I could only be together secretly.

I couldn't accept it.

So you conspired to set this up.

Ju found the sorcery book
Huang Hongnian threw away

and asked me to deal with him.

But it takes a long time

and a lot of energy and money
to practice sorcery.

I'm just a servant.

It's almost impossible

for me to learn it
without drawing any attention.

So I thought of Huang Wanhua.

I created the image of Yang Haiyan

and designed a fake
identity for Huang Wanhua.

At first, Ju didn't agree to it.

But she couldn't stand
my repeated persuasion.

Unfortunately,

not long after,

she passed away.

She didn't live to the day
when we can be together.

Do you think her death
had nothing to do with you?

Thinking about her daughter

wanting to kill her father,

how could she feel good?

She died of depression

because of you.

We couldn't be together alive,

and we can't share the same tomb when dead.

I won't let anyone take you away
from me in my next life.

Ju!

Let's go.

Get down!

Okay, put out the fire.

Stop! Stop!

Don't push.

It's gone. It's out.

Good.

Let's shoot from the side.

The side. Very good.

I need to consider the whole scene.

So at this point,

the front part is like this.

Four.

Three.

Back to the beginning.

Come on. Let's do it together.

It's okay. Take your time.

Excuse me.
