[Episode 13]
Wait. What are you doing?
Give me back my money!
Give me back my money.
Give me back my money.
There's really money.
Awesome.
So much money.
There's really money!
Yeah, a lot of money.
So much.
30 wens.
It's really 30 wens.
The Red Lotus Immortal didn't lie.
So it's true.
As long as you're devout,
[True Lotus Reveals Its Might]
you'll be rewarded.
The Red Lotus Immortal is all-powerful!
The Red Lotus Immortal is all-powerful!
The Red Lotus Immortal is all-powerful!
The Red Lotus Immortal is all-powerful!
I'm furious.
They actually used money to manipulate people.
Have they taken everyone for a fool?
People are losing their minds.
I must destroy that Magic Vase!
Those people are indeed despicable.
But there are two things I don't understand.
First,
how could that Magic Vase talk?
Second,
how did they know
how much you got in your wallet?
That's not hard.
I know how much money you have in your wallet too.
Stop bragging.
Here.
Tell me.
25.
Really?
So mysterious.
23, 24…
25.
How did you do it, Ah Shu?
If you insist on knowing,
I can only say
I'm a professional.
Let's not talk about that.
Let's drink. Come on.
Practice makes perfect.
Here.
Cheers.
We were searched before entering the Red Lotus Pavilion.
It all made sense now.
So before we entered the Red Lotus Pavilion,
we had already been targeted.
But no one went missing last night,
and there was no danger.
Where are the missing people?
Maybe we have to keep an eye on them for a while.
But the next gathering is half a month later.
Alright. It's getting late.
Go have a rest.
Thank you for the drink.
Take care. You can see yourselves out.
What are you thinking?
I just don't want those refugees
to be cheated.
I used to be like them,
homeless and displaced,
toiling every day.
The few coins I had were only enough to last me for a day.
I have a home,
friends,
and a job in Changle now,
and I don't need to worry about food and clothing anymore,
but the days when I had to endure hunger
and live at the mercy of others…
I can never forget them.
Those people came a long way to Changle
to make a living in Yong,
but those frauds
want to take away their last hope.
Yuan Mo.
You want me
to save them from the Red Lotus Society?
You're so smart.
You can definitely figure a way out.
Since you've made progress in Mandarin recently,
I'll give it a try.
Great!
I knew there was nothing you couldn't do.
You're so nice!
Yu, Yu.
Greetings, Mr. Yu.
What is it?
I have a big gift for you.
Knock it off.
A big gift for me?
I'd be grateful if you didn't cheat me out of all my money.
It's really a big gift.
You know about the Red Lotus Society, don't you?
Wang Kunwu has reported it to me.
The Jingzhao Prefecture will deal with it when they have time.
And when will that be?
Are you in a hurry?
Don't you always avoid trouble?
The refugees' case involves many states.
It's a thankless job.
Are you hiding something from me?
Refugees from different states have gone missing in Yong.
I'm worried that Yong's prestige will be affected!
Yong's prestige will be affected!
Drop the act.
You're not being honest with me.
Just tell me whether you'll work on this case or not.
I will,
but not now.
I have a more important task for you.
Form an alliance with all states in the desert
to fight against Yanle together.
The Ministry of Rites has approved An Xiuyi's proposal.
Long Tuqi covets the unclaimed oasis.
It has revealed Yanle's desire
to control the trade route in the desert.
An Xiuyi's proposal to form an alliance
can counterbalance Yanle.
It's a brilliant idea.
You're actually speaking for him?
I'm just telling the truth.
Wait.
So we'll just let those frauds of the Red Lotus Society get away with it?
Forming an alliance can wait,
but saving the refugees can't.
Let me ask you.
Where did the refugees come from?
Why have they come here?
They came from different states
to make a living here.
Then why didn't they
make a living in their hometowns?
They couldn't make a living in their own hometowns,
so they came to Yong for a better life.
So, the riot is the root cause of the refugees' misfortune.
The alliance can solve the refugees' problems at the source.
We work at the Sifang Pavilion.
Our priority now is to unite different states.
As for saving the refugees…
That's indeed the duty of the Jingzhao Prefecture.
Don't worry. Leave it to me.
[Jingzhao Prefecture]
Because I work at the Sifang Pavilion now,
I can't command the Jingzhao troops anymore?
Why?
Since you've been transferred there,
you're a part of the Sifang Pavilion now.
Plus, with the recent surge of refugees in the city
and the frequent occurrence of incidents,
I really don't have extra hands to help you.
So do you want me
to find the missing refugees by myself?
As long as you let me
command the soldiers of Jingzhao,
I promise I'll take down the Red Lotus Society
and bring all the refugees back safely.
The refugees joined the Red Lotus Society
to console each other.
I don't think it's a big deal.
The Red Lotus Society is deceiving people.
The refugees will be in danger if they get in too deep.
How is this not a big deal?
Let me ask you.
Did any of those refugees die?
Did any of them get hurt?
Did any of them lose property?
Did they report it to the government?
T-They've gone missing. How could they report it?
Yuchi,
Jingzhao received hundreds of cases every day,
big and small.
And we have to abide by the law in Yong.
You don't have solid evidence
and don't even know who the victims are.
You can't even build a case
against the Red Lotus Society.
It'll be too late when I can.
The Jingzhao Prefecture is responsible for the security of Changle,
but when it comes to refugees,
the Ministry of Rites and the Sifang Pavilion are responsible.
No foreign affair is too small.
If you can't handle it well, you'll be in big trouble.
If you don't help me,
I'll find a way myself.
You…
Please tell Duke Er
that I've done my best.
As long as she didn't take any soldiers from you,
Duke Er can be relieved.
[Archive Room]
Xiyuan is abundant in matsutake mushrooms?
Yuan Mo.
I recall that Xiyuan switched to tea cultivation
in the second year of Anping.
When was this information collected?
Is it accurate?
Kunwu,
aren't you worried about Yuchi Hua at all?
Can she pull it off alone?
Why don't we give her a hand?
Let's go help her.
Come on. Let's go help her.
Just do your job.
Why are you so proactive now?
Ji's half a month's rent
is such a good motivation?
I'm not doing it for money.
I may appear flippant,
but you have to believe that I'm a caring man.
I don't believe it.
Fine.
For Yong, I can…
Don't be weird!
I promised Ah Shu to help the refugees.
I don't want her to call me a deadbeat.
Find all the files we may need for the alliance.
We'll take them away.
Yes!
Don't miss anything.
Wait.
Retainer An.
The West Court needs those files too.
You guys?
Don't waste your time.
An Xiuyi,
you want to take all the credit again?
Although you proposed
to form the alliance,
the task was assigned by Yu.
The West Court should play a part in it too, okay?
You want to play a part?
Okay.
Let me ask you.
How are the relationships between the five states now?
What is the current system in each state?
What goods do they barter with each other?
What common interests do they share with Yong?
Kunwu.
Answer him.
You answer him.
You guys, d-don't make a mess.
You can't even answer such simple questions,
yet you think you can assist in forming the alliance.
You're so conceited.
Take the files away.
Yes.
Kunwu.
You've really disappointed me!
You riffled through those files for so long.
How could you fail to answer all his questions?
You riffled through those files for a long time too.
Then you should've stopped them at least.
No need.
An Xiuyi reminded me.
We know very little about the five states now.
Just relying on those outdated files,
we can't find out the current situation of the five states.
We need to learn from someone who knows the five states
very well.
Give classes?
This is the best way to help people in the West Court improve their abilities
and understand the affairs of the five states
in a short time.
Yu.
You're perfect for this task.
Without my father,
you would've been the one
who was sent to Yanle.
Moreover, you receive the latest intelligence
every day,
which…
we don't have access to.
Yuan Mo is right.
It's useless to flatter me.
To give classes every day?
I'm not young anymore.
How can I handle that?
Yu!
Except for you,
in the whole Yong,
I can't think of anyone else
who is qualified to give these classes!
If you don't agree,
I'll go to the Ministry of Rites now
to find another teacher.
Go ahead.
The Ministry of Rites, right?
The Ministry…
[Discretion and Respect]
After thinking about it,
I'm very glad
that you're so willing to learn.
Since Retainer Wang has proposed it,
I'll report it to the Ministry of Rites right away
to apply for special funds for the teaching.
Wait for me to come back with good news.
He changed his mind so quickly?
No.
Yu has never taken any work so seriously before.
It doesn't feel real.
Come on. Welcome.
Come in with me.
Retainer Wang, this way.
Watch your step.
Come on in.
This way. Come here.
Retainer Wang,
someone has been waiting for you
for a long time.
Please.
This way, please.
Yu.
What took you so long?
Mr. Yu.
What does this mean?
Didn't you ask me to give you classes?
Here?
Where the classes are given is not important.
What matters is to learn and have fun.
Come on. Sit.
Sit.
Sit.
Guys, sit down.
Liu.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we won't sing songs tonight.
We'll tell stories and put on plays.
You won't be disappointed.
Great! Great!
Come on.
Coming.
I've saved a seat for you.
Have you memorized the teaching scripts?
Yes.
Please start your performance.
Okay.
The sun sets over the long river.
Crows fly in disarray.
All states vie for supremacy.
The five powers pit themselves against each other.
Brothers are at each other's throats.
Wars never end.
One state falls, and another rises.
This is…
the story of the desert!
Great! Great!
Tonight, we're going to tell the story
of the five states in the desert.
Originally,
there were only four states.
But the ruler of Yuan was old and feeble,
which led to his two sons
fighting for the throne.
The two brothers turned against each other.
They took up arms and staked their own claim.
Go away!
As a result, Yuan split into Dongyuan and Xiyuan.
So this is how Yuan split into two states.
Interesting.
Indeed.
You know what?
The people of Yuan don't want to fight against their own kind,
but someone keeps sowing discord
between the two states.
This man is no one else
but the Viceroy of Yanle, Long Tuqi.
So it's Long Tuqi
who has been sowing discord between them.
Great!
Great! Great!
Great!
In order to build an alliance with Mobei,
Yueying married their princess to the khan of Mobei.
It marked the start of…
This must be the story of the marriage alliance between Yueying and Mobei.
Unfortunately, fate had other plans.
Mobei's khan suddenly died.
Yueying's princess, left with no choice,
was then married to the new khan of Mobei.
But this new khan was
the princess' son in name.
The princess refused to marry him,
so the queen of Yueying asked the new khan
to return the princess.
Come out! Come out!
But the new khan wouldn't return her.
Therefore, Yueying cut ties
with Mobei.
The new khan
was nominally the nephew of the queen of Yueying.
After he married her sister,
it made him the queen's brother-in-law.
Long Tuqi wouldn't miss out on
such a great opportunity.
He told Yueying,
"To Yanle, the new khan of Mobei
is still the queen's nephew."
In the meantime, he told Mobei,
"Yanle supports the new khan
and thinks he should be treated as an equal to the queen of Yueying."
Originally, a river marked the boundary
between Yuluo and the two states of Yuan.
However, due to the rise and fall of the river,
disputes arose among the three states.
Therefore, Yuluo, Xiyuan, and Dongyuan
have been at loggerheads with each other.
Do it!
Kill him! Let's do it together.
Fight!
The five states are constantly in conflict.
Long Tuqi has played a part in it.
Great!
Great!
Mr. Yu.
You barely said anything tonight.
All you've been saying is "great."
It's indeed great.
But I have to say,
it's a great idea, Yu.
You made everything easy to understand.
Great!
Great! Great!
[Sifang Pavilion]
We have to work together again?
That's what Mr. Yu wants.
Where is Mr. Yu?
I have to confirm it with him myself.
If we have to work together on everything,
there's no need to divide us into two courts.
We might as well merge into one court.
Can't we work separately?
Exactly.
Why should we cooperate?
The West Court…
What can you guys do?
Sit down.
The West Court
is different now.
If you don't believe me, ask us anything
about the five states.
We don't know less than you do.
I've heard it.
Mr. Yu helped you.
You guys are so hard-working.
You actually went to the Ruyi Pavilion for lessons.
Where the lessons were given is none of your business.
Fine.
In that case,
the West Court has to show some sincerity.
Invite the envoys of the five states to the Sifang Pavilion in three days
to discuss the alliance together.
Do you dare?
Why should we do that?
Sit down.
Okay.
As long as Yong can form an alliance with the five states,
the West Court is willing to cooperate.
Then, we'll wait for you to bring us good news.
Let's go.
I was being tough.
Yet you said we'd cooperate.
It's all over.
Dongyuan is willing to fight against Yanle.
But the people of Yuluo cross the border
for fishing every time the river rises.
If you want me to attend the meeting,
the envoy of Yuluo has to stay 30 meters away
[Dongyuan Envoy]
from me.
Yuluo has always respected Yong.
[Yuluo Embassy]
I shouldn't object to this.
But Dongyuan and Xiyuan
keep detaining my people.
[Lord Li, the envoy of Yuluo]
I don't want to see the envoys of those two states.
I'm fine with everything else.
[Mobei Embassy]
My khan is the brother-in-law of the queen of Yueying.
So, I and the Yueying Envoy
[Lord Ao, the envoy of Mobei]
must be seen as equals.
Mobei's khan is my queen's nephew.
[Under the Moon]
This is a matter of ethics.
Therefore,
[Yueying Envoy]
Yueying can't make any compromises.
Miss, actually...
Go back and report to your superior.
I must be held in higher regard
than the envoy of Mobei.
Mr. Yuan, say no more.
[Xiyuan Envoy]
Dongyuan and Xiyuan are brothers.
Yanle is the enemy.
Why can't you put your disputes aside for now
to fight against the common enemy?
I can attend the meeting,
but I have one condition.
What is it?
I refuse to sit with the Dongyuan Envoy.
[Ya Feng]
The Dongyuan Envoy has offered terms,
but the Yuluo Envoy will in no way agree to them.
Yueying's terms contradict
those of Mobei.
If we satisfy one of them,
we'll offend the other.
The Yuluo Envoy refuses to see some other envoys.
But how can he talk with them without meeting them?
Don't mention it.
The Xiyuan Envoy
shouted at me for almost an hour.
My head is buzzing now.
Why did he have to shout?
Yuan has a lot of mountains.
The people there communicate by shouting.
Otherwise, they can't hear each other.
So the people of Yuan are proud to have a loud voice.
No wonder the two states can't make peace.
Whenever they talk, it's like they're fighting.
Back to the matter at hand.
If we can't even get the envoys of the five states
to sit together,
how can we form an alliance?
What are you looking at?
What's the matter?
What's the length and width of this garden?
It's at least 24 meters wide.
What's wrong?
You want to hold the meeting here?
It's not big enough.
Don't forget the Dongyuan Envoy's requirement.
The Yuluo Envoy needs to be 30 meters away.
To meet the requirements of all the envoys,
we have to renovate this place.
Hurry.
Go get An Xiuyi.
Okay.
Renovate?
How?
I have the drawing.
It's ten strings.
Will you buy it?
I'm not in the mood for jokes.
Neither am I.
If you have a way
to meet the requirements of all envoys at the same time,
you can take it as a joke.
Young Master An,
you proposed to form the alliance.
Even if Yuan Mo can help us make it,
the credit will still be yours in the end.
I'll pay you the money,
and you'll give me the drawing.
Generous.
He's so generous.
If we renovate this place according to your drawing
but still can't meet the requirements of the five envoys…
I'll give you a refund.
Ten times more.
[Sifang Pavilion]
[Yong]
Thank you all
[Ya Feng]
for coming to the garden of the Sifang Pavilion
to discuss the alliance.
Next, please find the flag of your state
and take your seat.
Please.
Don't worry.
They can't find any faults.
[Seating arrangement for the meeting at the Sifang Pavilion]
This is the drawing
that can make the garden
meet the requirements of all envoys?
Look.
The Xiyuan Envoy refuses
to sit at the same table as the Dongyuan Envoy.
So I've arranged for each envoy
to sit in a separate pavilion.
They won't sit together this way.
The demand of the Xiyuan Envoy can be met,
and the other envoys will be treated equally.
The Dongyuan Envoy requests
the Yuluo Envoy to be 30 meters away from him.
The diagonal of our garden
is exactly 30 meters long.
The Yueying Envoy wants to be held in higher regard
than the Mobei Envoy.
Then we'll build the Yueying Envoy's pavilion
on a platform.
The Mobei Envoy demands to be treated equally as the Yueying Envoy.
Then we'll make both his table
and chair higher.
This way, the Yueying Envoy
can sit higher than the Mobei Envoy
while she's right at his eye level.
What about the Yuluo Envoy?
He doesn't even want to meet
the envoys of Dongyuan and Xiyuan.
These five pavilions are like the five petals of a plum flower,
with Yong in the center
to connect the five states.
It's worth ten strings, isn't it?
It's a good plan,
but the envoys will be far from each other.
How can they talk with each other?
Do you expect them to talk face-to-face?
First of all, I'm very honored
to have you here.
I hope you can agree to disagree
and work together to bring peace to this world!
You should know the relationships between the five states.
If we have a quarrel later,
I'm afraid it'll be very embarrassing for the host.
You…
You're right.
So we specially set
new rules for this meeting.
Tell your terms on the alliance
to the clerks next to you.
They'll pass your message to us.
Then the retainers of the East and West Courts
of the Sifang Pavilion will discuss them with their colleagues
and summarize your opinions
before giving you feedback.
What do you think?
Then, envoys,
you may start.
What do you think, Retainer An?
Just ten strings.
It's such a bargain.
Brat.
Your idea is great.
I've made up my mind.
This will be the test question
for the Sifang Pavilion's recruitment next year.
It's so tricky.
To become a public servant,
you have to be able to solve a problem like this.
I think they're almost done discussing.
Let's go and see what the result is.
Dongyuan has no objection.
Xiyuan has no objection.
Yueying has no objection.
Mobei has no objection.
Come. Serve the wine!
Envoys, you all have big hearts.
You've managed to form an alliance despite your differences.
It's not an easy thing to do.
At our first meeting, Yong and the five states
reached a preliminary consensus.
It's worth celebrating.
A toast to all of you!
Distinguished envoys,
you all know Retainer An, don't you?
He's An Xiuyi, the son
of the Vice Minister of Rites.
This meeting
was planned and organized by him.
He's young and capable.
Like father, like son.
Thank you, Lord Ao.
-He got all the credit with just ten strings of coins. -Next, he'll read
-What a bargain. -the draft of the agreement.
In the 22nd year of Anping,
the year of Jiachen,
Yong, Mobei, Yueying,
Dongyuan, Xiyuan, and Yuluo
reached an agreement to form an alliance.
Yong and the five states share a common cause
and will jointly fight against Yanle.
Yong and the five states will always be brothers.
It's essential for us to work together
for long-term survival.
Brothers?
Yueying's queen is the aunt of Mobei's khan.
You can't ignore seniority and call us brothers.
Is Yong going to help Mobei
humiliate Yueying?
Yueying won't sign
such an agreement.
Aunt?
Yueying's princess
has married the new khan of Mobei,
which has made our khan the queen's brother-in-law.
Our khan
is no longer your queen's nephew.
Does Yueying mean
to look down on Mobei?
You…
Please calm down.
This is just the draft.
If there are any improper words in the agreement,
we can change them anytime.
You came here today
because you all approve of the alliance.
We're like brothers and must not turn against each other.
Otherwise, people will laugh at us.
Do you mean
you've been laughing at
Dongyuan and Xiyuan all this time?
Dongyuan won't sign such an agreement!
It's true that your rulers are brothers and have turned against each other.
He just said it out loud.
I'm not interested in the farce between Dongyuan and Xiyuan.
I just want to know when you'll release the people of Yuluo
who you detained for no reason.
Yuluo Envoy, stop talking nonsense!
Your people broke the rules and crossed the border first.
I knew it.
The Yuluo Envoy
is not here for peace talks!
All you think about
is business!
What's wrong with doing business?
It's better than being as poor as Xiyuan.
If war was declared,
Xiyuan wouldn't be afraid of you!
If we were to fight in war,
Yuluo wouldn't be afraid either.
Show some respect,
or I'll make sure you can't walk out of here alive!
Let me remind you.
This is the Sifang Pavilion of Yong.
If you dare to act out,
there'll be consequences.
Envoys,
please calm down.
We can talk.
There's nothing to talk about.
Relying on these scoundrels to fight against Yanle
is so ridiculous.
I'm leaving.
Scoundrels?
Don't go if you dare!
I don't think there'll be an alliance.
Let's go.
Let's go!
We're leaving too.
Everything was fine.
How did it end like this?
[Yanle Hall]
The five states in the desert have always been on bad terms.
There's only one reason why they've gathered together.
They want to target Yanle.
But the meeting didn't end well.
When the envoys of the five states left,
they were still arguing.
It didn't look like they had reached an agreement.
No matter what, we have to plan ahead.
Send a letter to the Viceroy
and tell him to send secret envoys to each state.
Yes.
Wait.
Among the five states,
Yuluo and Mobei are the most powerful.
But Yuluo and Yanle have been enemies for generations.
There's no wiggle room at all.
So Mobei is the most important for us.
Tell the Viceroy to win them over with great profits.
You asked for the full support of the Ministry of Rites
and the full cooperation of the Sifang Pavilion.
But how did it end?
You ruined the alliance plan!
You're of no help at all!
Vice Minister An, calm down.
Xiuyi didn't mean it to happen.
Don't defend him!
Let him take responsibility for his own mistake!
Don't worry.
You don't have to say it.
I won't get you involved and punished because of me.
What did you say?
When I did a good job,
you always pretended not to see it.
But when I made a small mistake,
you rushed here and criticized me.
All these years,
you've never cared for me.
So I don't need you
to take responsibility for me now.
I'll take responsibility for my own mistake.
I'll clean up
the mess I made.
Xiuyi…
Look at him.
That's no way to admit his mistake!
An, calm down.
He's young and proud. Don't take it to heart.
He…
Yuan Mo is here.
Vice Minister An.
You asked to see me?
Did you draw this painting?
Yes.
You're quite smart.
Thank you, Vice Minister An.
You must be smug,
so you still don't know
what is wrong with this arrangement.
Please enlighten me, Vice Minister An.
When the envoys of two states meet,
there needs to be special officials beside them
to explain and accurately convey what they say.
In this meeting,
you let the clerks of the East Court pass the messages.
If they misunderstood and distorted the original messages,
or omitted important information and caused misunderstandings between two states,
it'd be too late.
You're right.
The key to forming an alliance
is finding out
the fundamental interests of each state
and then hitting them where it hurts.
Before that,
any tricks will be in vain.
Remember.
No foreign affair is too small.
I'll keep that in mind.
Yuan Mo.
Your father was far more capable
at your age.
Since Vice Minister An just said that
no foreign affair is too small,
I do have a small matter to tell you.
An,
I guess this brat
is going to talk about the refugees and the Red Lotus Society.
Yes.
I'm afraid it's hard to form an alliance
with the five states in a short time.
Why don't we seize this opportunity
to help the refugees settle down
and win them over?
It might be helpful
for the future alliance.
He has a point.
Lin, the magistrate of Jingzhao,
has already thrown that hot potato to the Sifang Pavilion.
Get it done as soon as possible.
Don't cause me any trouble.
Yes.
He has no manners at all.
[Zhen'an Hall]
I need to do something today.
But first, it's not a task assigned by the Jingzhao Prefecture.
Second, it's not a mission from the Sifang Pavilion.
Third, I don't have my father's order.
I just want to seek justice
and let everyone know that
the Yuchi family is a noble family in Changle,
but we care about
the ordinary people very much.
Will you
help me today?
Yes!
Today, we'll wipe out the Red Lotus Society!
Let's go.
Yes!
The gate is over there.
Where are you going?
Wait.
Mr. Huang?
What do you want this time?
Duke Er has given his order.
The soldiers of Yuchi's Mansion
can drink and have fun at their will today
but can't step out of the mansion.
Does that old man
mean to get in my way?
Actually, Duke Er cares for you very much.
As long as you relent and say something nice…
Dream on.
I haven't gotten even with him for the election.
You want me to beg him?
Even if he doesn't give me any soldiers,
I'll still destroy the Red Lotus Society on my own.
Master said
he won't step in if you want to challenge the Red Lotus Society alone.
Hua, have some tea.
Don't be angry.
I'm so angry!
Father, Mr. Huang, and Lin
either refused to help or got in my way.
I won't let them stop me.
I must destroy the Red Lotus Society
and save all the refugees!
Are you really going to save the refugees?
Of course!
I have to show those chauvinist officials
that I can do great things
without their help!
If you're going to do it,
I'll help you.
You?
Ah Shu,
with you, there are only two of us.
How can we wipe out the Red Lotus Society?
Its disciples can drown us with their saliva.
I have a plan.
Come, sit down.
Do you remember the guy
who we all thought was a plant?
His name is Chen…
Xinliang?
Right.
We can't deal with everyone,
but we can arrest
and interrogate him.
Maybe we can find a way to make a breakthrough.
You have a point.
Ah Shu.
You're so smart.
Hua.
Should we find a refugee to make some inquiries first?
Okay, let's split up.
Be careful.
Sorry.
Let me light it up for you.
It's okay.
My name is Ah Shu. What's your name?
My name is Xiao'e.
This is my first time here.
I don't know how it works.
The Red Lotus Immortal gave out money the other day.
You missed it.
Gave out money?
Really?
I heard it from others.
So I came to check it out.
I heard that the Red Lotus Immortal
is going to use magic to cure people tonight.
Really?
I can't wait to see it.
Donation.
Extend your arms.
Donation.
Extend your arms.
Every disciple has to donate.
Every disciple has to donate.
You guys promised to give me back more.
I want it now.
If you're not devout,
why have you come here?
Only when you are devout
can you be blessed.
Donate.
Ah Shu.
I have good news for you.
Ah Shu?
Ah Shu?
Where is she?
Ah Shu!
Oh no.
