[The Seven Relics of ill Omen]

[Adapted from Weiyu's novel, The Seven Relics of ill Omen]

[Episode 10]

[Destiny Bar]

As it turns out,

visions are meaningful.

They indicate the location where the next relic of ill omen will appear.

But why would they give us hints?

True.

That didn't help them.

The hint

got the second relic of ill omen caught.

Well...

Everything in this world is interconnected.

I suspect the relics of ill omen might be connected too.

So far,

we've deciphered two ancient characters.

One is "blade".

The other is "water".

The characters on the relics of ill omen

seem to show how they cause harm.

Water can't contain them at all.

Is there anything in this world

that can actually trap them?

Um... cement?

Blood. My blood.

I was...

Yes, and Luo Ren.

Seems my blood worked too.

Yeah.

Let's give it a try.

Radishie's goes first.

Here we go.

There it is!

Good.

The second one is from Thirteen.

Mine?

I'm sure it'll work.

Congrats,

your blood is useful.

The third one is from Chubby.

Come on.

It's not working.

Mr. Mighty,

I can try again tomorrow morning

on an empty stomach.

My blood might be too thick.

Cao, do you have high cholesterol?

Get lost.

Hey, it's working now.

And our newcomer...

Yan Hongsha.

Oh, "Yan". That's two fires.

Firey's blood.

Why does this image look so familiar?

It's three chickens fighting a dog.

Am I right?

I'm frightened by your ignorance.

Those are three birds.

The one with a crest and three tails is Feng, a male phoenix.

The one with two tails and no crest is Huang, a female phoenix.

The remaining one is Luan.

It's recorded in ancient books

that "Colored in five hues, it represents the herald of dawn.

The dawn announcer...

is the rooster."

Isn't that still a chicken?

It looks like one, but it's not.

This is almost complete.

Is my blood still needed?

It's been drawn.

Might as well try.

Pocketty's blood.

Hey, think about it.

We always thought

the shadow of water

was three chickens standing on a wooden rack.

But maybe that's not the case.

The wooden rack

might actually be the relic of ill omen.

And the three chickens

are the Feng, Huang, and Luan Mr. Mighty mentioned.

It's the shadow of water.

Why is it on fire?

Why a dog again?

The first shadow of water also had a dog.

Does the dog have some special meaning?

Her clothes

look like they are from over a century ago.

And this place here.

This architectural style

is also from over a hundred years ago.

The two shadows of water

seem to be telling a story from long ago.

But it probably has nothing to do

with us now.

Mukun,

Pingting.

Based on the experiment,

any of you with a matching blood type with Pingting should do.

Then we'll transfuse your blood

into her body.

That should force the relic of ill omen

to come out.

Pingting.

Pingting.

Pingting.

Pingting!

Pingting!

Pingting!

Pingting.

I'll see you.

Oh, right, Mu Dai,

get yourself a new phone.

We'll set up a group chat.

I came up with the group name.

"Phoenix Squad."

Isn't it good?

Let's go.

How can this rich girl pick such a tacky name?

Really doesn't live up to her money.

See you, Mr. Zhang.

Mr. Zhang, see you next time.

See you.

Bye-bye.

Mr. Zhang,

I didn't mean to do it.

All right.

Get right back to work.

Mr. Zhang,

I was right to go, wasn't I?

You're back.

Mr. Zhang,

I'm a little tired.

I'll go upstairs for a quick rest

and come back down to help.

[Destiny Bar]

I didn't expect you two

to run into each other

even in Hepu.

Yeah.

Is it just me overthinking things?

Mu Dai didn't seem very spirited

when she came back.

Mr. Zhang,

did Mu Dai used to

suddenly forget things?

Like

she does something

and then

forgets it just like that?

Back when we fought the clam,

I kept calling for you.

Why didn't you respond?

Did you?

I did.

You seemed like

a completely different person.

No... I wasn't.

Possible.

Once she drinks too much,

she gets crazy and starts acting wild.

Wait...

But when she sobers up,

she forgets everything.

So better not let her drink too much.

Or you'll see her make a fool of herself.

Mom, wait for me, don't go.

Mom!

[New model phone]

Back when we fought the clam,

I kept calling for you.

Why didn't you respond?

Did you?

I did.

[Multiple Personality Disorder]

Debts must be paid. That's only right.

No need for the reminder.

You said the same thing last time.

You said your son would come back with the money.

Guess what?

He came back lying in an urn.

We sympathized with your grief

and didn't ask for money at the funeral.

But you can't just take advantage of our kindness.

I've got property.

[Premises Permit]

I know you do.

That's why I've been so polite to you.

But your son

gambled big and ran up massive debt.

The property won't cover it.

It won't.

But have you not thought

that the Yan family

may have some valuable stones tucked away?

Great.

That's what I wanted to hear.

If you're ready to hand them over,

this will be much easier.

I will clear the debts within two months.

But you didn't keep the promises

you made before.

I really don't have much faith left.

By the rules,

I'll be taking this with me.

Let's go.

Lengquan?

Why does this place

look so familiar?

"Look" familiar?

When the relic of ill omen possessed Pingting,

she was humming folk tunes from Lengquan.

It does look familiar.

To my ear.

All right, whatever you say.

The earliest stories I recorded about the relics of ill omen

were collected around Lengquan.

In studying the relics of ill omen,

Lengquan is an unavoidable stop.

So lately,

I've gone through

the local materials again.

These are the murals from Lengquan.

Take a closer look.

Look carefully.

This style of painting

somehow

resembles the Feng, Huang, and Luan from the shadows of water,

right?

Am I right?

If you insist on saying that,

I...

I'll go with it.

Yes.

Since everyone thinks so,

practice will lead us to real understanding.

I think

it's time we took a trip to Lengquan.

Wait, who agreed?

Why are we suddenly going?

I haven't... finished yet.

Are you okay?

Here's a reminder.

Be extra careful during this time.

Whenever possible,

stay in a group.

What do you mean?

Be careful.

Who knows how many more relics of ill omen there are?

You can keep that.

What?

Oh, right.

During this time,

hold your hands, okay?

Spooky.

Scares me.

How is this,

Mu Dai?

Have you been watching me?

You came to my house this time

not just to pick up your paycheck, right?

Was it about your split personality thing?

I'm telling you,

I think you're just overthinking it.

There's no such thing as a split personality.

You were just overly frightened

and then forgot things.

So I'm that fragile, huh?

All of you were fine.

I'm the only one who forgets things.

Even if you have a split personality,

there's nothing to worry about.

She didn't hurt you

and even helped you out of danger.

Isn't that a good thing?

Is it?

Now I really think

it's good I didn't end up with Luo Ren.

If he found out,

I can't imagine what would happen.

Pingting.

Luo Ren.

I think there's still something wrong with her.

She's much better.

Yeah, indeed.

She doesn't eat people anymore.

Luo,

where were we?

You and Mr. Zheng are opening a restaurant?

Keep it down.

People are watching.

Yes.

Good.

This is good.

And how is that good?

Are you open to investment?

I'd like to buy in.

I'll think about it.

Great.

Trying to get a share for nothing, huh?

Come on.

Am I that kind of person?

I may have no money,

but I've got pearls.

A pearl?

I didn't notice it,

but there are quite a few in here.

Of course.

Did you see how big that clam was?

There have to be pearls.

I'll have someone collect them.

We can each have one.

There'll be enough for everyone.

We'll all have pearls.

- For real. - Pearls?

We can all be shareholders.

Luo,

I should be grateful

to be working here.

But every day, people just call me by

"Excuse me."

And I'm like, "Yes?"

It's nothing to look forward to.

If I become a shareholder,

they'll call me

"Chairman."

And I'll be like, "Yes?"

Just imagine that.

Excuse me.

- Fair. - Yes?

Yeah?

Don't you think

Chubby is inspiring?

Inspiring?

Him?

His pockets are cleaner than his face.

How much could those pearls even be worth?

And he wants a share?

You call that inspiring?

That's daydreaming.

Right, call it daydreaming.

At least he dares to.

I used to think

his dreams were just talk.

I didn't expect him to actually stick with them.

You see,

he said he'd stop being a bum, and he did.

He said he'd learn martial arts, and he found a master.

He said he'd make money, and now he's working all over.

Don't you find that admirable?

Yes.

I know the past is

like a quagmire.

It drags you down.

But I think

if you keep moving ahead,

things will change.

Fine.

Since you've got time to lecture me with life advice,

why not worry about your own stuff?

What stuff?

You think I didn't notice?

Since the fight with the clam,

you and Lady Dai

have been acting weird,

haven't you?

Here, Pingting.

This is for you.

If you offend someone,

just be humble.

Give them a gift. Say something nice.

Is it that hard?

Try harder.

I'm about to go check out the storefront.

If it works,

I'll have Mr. Zheng follow up with you.

Okay.

If you offend someone,

just be humble.

Give them a gift. Say something nice.

Hello, sir.

Looking for something?

A gift or for yourself?

Just browsing.

All items here are unique,

one-of-a-kind singles.

My shop is called Lianyan,

meaning it collects all the beautiful things of women.

Let me show you something special.

This is the Garment of Amorousness.

It's embroidered with a man and woman,

symbolizing togetherness

and happiness.

Why do they not have faces?

It's a bit creepy.

Because in ancient times,

unmarried women

made this for themselves.

They didn't know what their future husbands would look like,

so they left their face empty.

After marriage, they'd add the facial features

once they saw their husband.

You can buy this for your girlfriend

and have her embroider your face on it.

But

never mind

if you're single.

I'll pass. The symbolism isn't great.

Like a blind marriage

where you don't even know their face.

It's kind of miserable.

You like this?

Not really.

Would you be interested

in seeing my shop's most treasured item?

Most treasured?

Lian Shu.

Luo Ren.

It surely is treasured.

The price

is steep.

This pair is

called the forbidden shoes.

Do you know why they have bells?

For the sound?

No.

The bells are there

to remind women

to walk with grace.

Only if she walks stably enough

that the bells don't make a sound,

can she truly be considered graceful.

This pair is

Lotus Blooms with Every Step.

As you walk,

power falls with each step.

The lotus design

then leaves a clear print on the ground.

Each step

blooms a lotus.

188,000 for the two pairs?

No, that's for one pair.

But even if someone's willing to pay,

I might not sell.

I'm waiting for a fated buyer.

A fated pervert, you mean?

Or a fated...

object-fetishist.

Folk culture researchers don't count, of course.

Miss Lian,

you're a woman,

and yet you praise this stuff?

Aren't these food shackles

for ancient women?

And you put them on display like treasure?

Things like this

should stay buried in a coffin.

Mr. Luo,

it seems you lack even the most basic courtesy

and respect.

Yeah.

I could tell you'd wanted me gone.

I'll see myself out.

Luo Ren,

[Chubby] Emergency. Come back now.

We've weathered storms, haven't we?

This little challenge won't stop us.

A small restaurant business is just a piece of cake.

As long as we work hard together

and give it our all,

we'll be the top of the field.

- Sure. - It's our own business.

Let's do our best.

I'm supporting your dream, Cao.

Come on.

It's our dream.

Sure.

The second important topic...

Get a seat.

It's the shareholders' meeting.

"Emergency"?

We're in urgent need of money.

Every second is about a lot of money.

Come on.

The second on the list.

Let's come up with a name.

Well,

here's my humble opinion.

Shoot.

Dancing Phoenix.

Oh, my.

What a tacky name.

Even my grandpa wouldn't use a name like that.

Seriously.

I actually think it's a good name.

Right, Cao?

Backing me up for once, huh?

How about "Phoenix Pavilion"?

We're the Phoenix Squad, after all.

Sounds good to me.

I like it.

I'll go with my master's choice.

I'll follow Lady Dai.

Okay.

Phoenix Pavilion sounds good.

Okay.

We've got the name.

Here's to...

Phoenix Pavilion's successful opening.

- And prosperity. - A successful opening.

A successful opening!

And

let's wish Mu Dai and me

a triumphant mission.

You got it.

Bring on the meat.

The bowls are all here.

So my part is done, right?

I'll take off now.

Okay.

Is this gig

from Mr. Yan?

Yeah.

He paid extra this time,

starting from fifty grand.

Oh, sorry.

I just finished the chore

and didn't see you.

He's opening his private gem well.

Is he short on money lately?

I don't think so.

How could he lack money with his big family business?

He's an old-school treasure hunter.

The treasures he keeps to himself

are only for emergencies.

If he's opening a new well,

something must have happened.

Seems he's trying to leave things behind for Hongsha.

My guess is

since he's getting old

and his son suddenly died,

he's rushing to make arrangements for Hongsha.

What? I'm doing things here.

Some chicken stuff.

What the heck?

Where is the exact location?

That's what I'm getting to.

I'm speechless with the old guy.

He told me it's in Nanling.

And what is that?

It spans several provinces.

I asked him

to give me some specifics,

at least a location.

Guess what he said?

I can't tell you the exact location.

It's the rule of treasure hunting.

Even with Hongsha's help,

you couldn't get anything out of him.

In the end, he mentioned it was somewhere near Pu Zhai.

Ask more and he clams up.

Let him be.

He even tried to fool you with Nanling.

Nanling and Pu Zhai

are not even in the same region.

Exactly.

That guy

is kind of a pain.

I think so.

But Hongsha kept apologizing,

saying "Sorry, Mu Dai,

my grandpa's always like that,

acting all mysterious.

I can't help it either."

Well,

probably he does respect the rules.

Don't you think?

Mu Dai.

Where's my kitty hair tie?

I'll go see if Hongsha has it.

[Destiny Bar] Hurry back after the job's done.

We've got the ribbon to cut

and a ton of other stuff to deal with.

All right.

We'll open the business when I get back.

Thirteen.

She's leaving. Say something.

Where's there to say between me and her?

Let's work well together.

Um...

We're making money together.

Stay united.

Yeah, yeah.

And

set your phone to auto-send your location

every hour,

so I can keep track of where you are.

Here's a gift for you.

Take it.

A gift?

You lost your dagger when saving me.

I've got money now,

so here's a new one.

Thank you.

Luo Ren.

Lian Shu?

What?

Didn't expect me to say hello?

We got to know each other, after all.

These pastries are really good.

Try one.

I'm good.

I ate.

Hello, I'm Lian Shu.

I own the shop called Lianyan over there.

Hello, I'm Mu Dai.

Luo Ren came to my shop to pick things,

and we talked for quite a while.

What?

He's got quite unique taste.

So I figure his friends

must be interesting people.

Yes, his friends...

Stop by my shop sometime.

I'll make you tea.

Our restaurant is opening too.

You're welcome to come over.

Sure.

- Okay. - It's about time, huh?

Mu Dai.

Shut the door.

Master.

Thank you.

Take care of yourself, Chubby.

Goodbye.

Restaurant co-owner,

future business tycoon,

learning martial arts like a star,

I was born to stand out.

Cao.

Aw, my waist. What?

Did you hear the thunder?

Thunder?

No.

Are you imagining things?

Another vision.

Is there a new relic of ill omen?

Thirteen-Thousand saw a vision again.

There must have been a new relic of ill omen.

Mr. Kun said not to split up.

You and Hongsha need to look out for each other.

Heavy rain, deep mountains, a village.

The clues are vague.

We'll probably keep seeing more visions, right?

Pretty much.

If anything happens,

let me know right away.

Don't get me started.

Hongsha's phone

got confiscated by her grandpa.

He said it's "the rules".

I'm not his family,

so he couldn't really get my phone.

But I can't push it too far.

I've got my phone on silent.

I'm making this call in secret.

Where are you now?

On a mountain road.

Has he not told you where?

He's tight-lipped.

I can't force it out of him.

I'll see how it goes.

Change

your auto-location setting.

make it update every 30 minutes

starting now.

[Mu Dai: Auto-sending location every 30 minutes]

Starting from where you are,

it's all mountains

whichever way you go.

Once you're in the mountains,

the GPS isn't reliable.

Listen,

if you see any signposts,

take a picture and send it to me.

Just in case.

Okay.

Mu Dai,

keep in contact.

Be very careful.

[30KM to Pu Zhai]

What kind of road is this?

Calm down. Drive carefully.

I talked with the landlord.

The rent's not an issue.

Sorry, a second.

It's spacious... inside too.

[Mu Dai] I think I just saw a vision.

Can't call right now.

What kind of vision was it?

Was it the same as what Thirteen-Thousand saw?

[Luo Ren]

No,

I suddenly saw a shadow outside the window.

Looked like a person.

Was it a man or a woman?

Ancient or modern?

Not entirely sure.

Probably modern.

Can you be more specific?

What's the person's build?

Were they standing or sitting?

Facing front or sideways?

The person was standing,

holding something long

in one hand.

The other arm was carrying...

Carrying what?

A basket.

You said she was holding something long.

Was it a broom?

Yes.

You like this?

Stay alert. I'll be back with an update.

Luo Ren,

I thought you...

You want this?

What's the meaning behind it?

Meaning?

This is called Sunny Doll.

It dates back to ancient times.

People used it to pray for the rain to stop and sky to clear.

In the north, it's called “Sky-Sweeping Doll.”

Sunny Doll?

[Sunny Doll]

Is this what it looks like?

Not quite.

Some hold the broom high,

others let it hang low.

It's region-specific.

There's no standard look.

So,

where's yours from?

Can't remember the exact place.

Somewhere with lots of rain for sure.

People want to sweep away the rain deity when it rains too much.

Sweep away the rain deity?

Thirteen-Thousand saw heavy rain too.

Seems like this relic of ill omen

is in a mountainous, rainy place.

Why are we stopping? We haven't arrived.

Sir,

there's no road ahead.

Luo!

I saw a vision.

It's a well.

[Rough Amber]

[Greed runs as deep as the abyss. Endless craving leads to utter loss.]

Grandpa,

are you sure you remember the way?

Yes.

But it's already dark.

When are we going to get there?

Almost there.

Just follow me.

Mountains,

rain, a village, and a well.

None of this helps.

What village doesn't have a well?

You tell me.

The doll was creepy though.

Oh, my.

You've got guts.

A doll?

- No, wait. - Isn't it a doll?

You call the corpse a doll?

A corpse?

Yeah.

Wait, no.

Cao Yanhua.

We're not seeing the same well.

What was yours like?

In a forest,

a clearing in the middle,

there's a well.

Real spooky.

Filled with stones

and a corpse.

Stones?

Yeah.

He's an old-school treasure hunter.

If he's opening a new well,

something must have happened.

A gemstone well?

Hey, Luo Ren.

You're in danger over there.

Don't go into that gem well.

There's a relic of ill omen.

What did you say?

Your signal's bad.

Mu Dai,

wait for me.

We'll be right there.

Right what?

Slow down, Grandpa.

It's a rough road.

Grandpa!

What?

Pack up, hurry!

- Pack up. - Pack up.

You're a paid bodyguard.

Do your job.

If that had been a wild beast,

I would have died by now.

Grandpa.

Let's go.

Mu Dai,

please don't take it personally.

That's what my grandpa is,

a grumpy old man.

He doesn't really mean that.

It's okay.

I didn't do my job well.

Let's go.

What is it, Grandpa?

I hear something.

Is that...

Is that a will-o'-the-wisp?

Don't talk nonsense.

Chubby,

we just got back and now we're leaving again.

What should we tell Mr. Zhang?

If he finds out,

he will chop us up.

He won't actually kill you,

but if my master and Hongsha run into a relic of ill omen,

they could die.

We'll take his yelling.

Hurry up.

[Mr. Zhang, we got an emergency and didn't have time to ask for leave.]

[Please dock our pay, and we hope for your understanding. Cao/Thirteen]
