[Candle in the Tomb]

[Episode 10]

Be careful.

Professor, are you okay?

Old Gentleman! How long will
this sandstorm last?

It just started.

Who can tell?

Aren't you really capable?

If you're so capable,
go ask Mother Nature.

It's such a sandstorm
in the Black Desert.

I wanted to run away.

You had Fatso stop me.

Great! Now none of us can leave!

You're making me die with you!

What else do you want me to say?

Hu.

I've looked around. It's safe here.

We won't die.

That might not be the case.

Why?

Look at this place.
There are holes everywhere.

We don't know how long
this sandstorm will last.

If we just wait here,
we might be buried alive.

Sister Yang, what's wrong?

I'm fine.

Let me see.

What's wrong with your eye?

Miss Yang, are you okay?

Sand got in my eye. I'm fine.

Xiao Ye, get a canteen for Miss Yang
to flush it out.

Get up! Get up!

Run! You were great at running.
Why aren't you running away now?

- Let go. Let go.
- No one is stopping you now.

- Run! Run!
- Fatso.

Let go. Let go of my hand.

What are you doing?

He calls us friends, but if I
hadn't stopped him

he would've left us.
He doesn't care if we live or die.

What's with you?

I warned you when we started,
but none of you listened!

Great! Now we're all trapped here.
You can't blame me.

How reasonable of you.

- You can't blame me!
- All right, all right.

Let's all calm down. Calm down, okay?

- He was the one who grabbed me.
- Old Gentleman.

We're already in this predicament.

Let's just figure out what to do
from here on out, okay?

Everyone, we don't know
when this sandstorm will end.

I reckon we'll have to
spend the night here.

Fatso. Fatso!

Take Sa Di Peng and Chu Jian
with you to bring

the food, fuel,
and sleeping bags in here.

In addition, we'll have to
work in shifts tonight.

If we don't keep an eye on the holes here

and get buried in the sand,
it won't be any different from out there.

Hu is right.

Let's go. Follow me.

Let's go.

How are you?

Brother Hu, the sand in
Sister Yang's eye is troublesome.

I...

It's okay. I'll take care of it.

Here, give me some water
to rinse my hands.

Okay. Come here.

Don't move.

Bear with me.

I'm going to blow now.

Don't rub it. Don't rub it.

Bear with it.

Do you feel better now?

A lot better.

Remember, if you ever
get sand in your eye

you must not rub it
after someone blows on it.

If you just bear with it for a bit,
it'll definitely get better.

Okay.

I understand.

I'll go out and take a look.

Mr. Hu.

Thank you.

Hu, be careful.

Okay.

The sandstorm is here.

We brought the solid fuel.

Try to conserve as much
resources as possible.

Hu, you should rest. This isn't urgent.

I'm fine.

Professor, are you okay?

I'm fine.

- There's more?
- My goodness!

With this storm, we may as well be dead.

We're about to go to heaven.

- Give it to me.
- Here.

Who didn't get any beef jerky yet?

- Everyone's had some?
- Xiao Ye.

Old Gentleman,
your camels are doing well.

You don't have to worry.
If anything happens, I'll go out.

I'd rather die from exhaustion than
let you go out and do anything.

Wang, even if you let him go out now,
he wouldn't run away.

Right, Old Gentleman?

It doesn't matter.

I can only be at ease if he waits here.

An Li Man, I saw some
animal footprints in the corner.

They're wolf footprints.

I almost forgot.

I saw six or seven gazelles
outside on the wall.

God made this place
for the animals of the desert.

You only saw the gazelles

but wolves and leopards
might be hiding here.

With the sandstorm out there,
all the animals are scared.

Once the sandstorm ends, you'll find out

that the wolves and gazelles
were hiding under one roof.

At that time, the wolves
will start baring their teeth.

And the gazelles will suddenly show
you the horns on their heads.

So does that mean the wolves and gazelles
will discover us when the storm ends?

Yes.

Even though we can hide from the storm,
we can't hide from the beasts.

Hu, Sa Di Peng is a coward.
Don't scare him, okay?

Yeah, Brother Hu.

Don't joke at a time like this.

I just wanted to lighten the mood.

Look. This is our first time seeing
the power of the desert.

What an experience.

This is what they call

"Getting great joy from fighting
against the heavens and the earth."

That saying makes a lot of sense now.

Xiao Ye, what do you have there?

Bone!

- Are you okay, Xiao Ye?
- There are a lot of bones here!

We're archaeologists.
Why are you scared of bones?

I'm sorry, Professor Hao. I didn't think
there would be human bones here.

I wasn't mentally prepared.

These really are human bones.

Professor Hao, these bones are strange.

What's strange about them?

The flesh of those who die
in the desert wouldn't rot.

After naturally drying,
they become mummies.

But there isn't any flesh
on these bones at all.

They might have been eaten by wolves.

That's very possible.

This person might have also stopped here
to take shelter from a storm.

And then he was attacked by animals.

So what I said just now
wasn't just a joke.

We must take turns keeping watch.

If anything happens,
we must alert everyone else quickly.

And when the storm passes,
we must leave here quickly.

I think that since we have guns, we don't
have to wait until the storm is over.

We can leave when
the storm dies down a little.

We can kill a gazelle or two
and eat some fresh meat.

I'm so annoyed at having to
gnaw at this beef jerky.

No, you can't do that.

If you fire a shot,
you'll scare all the animals hiding here.

If they come out here,
we'll all be buried alive with them.

We're the same as those animals.

God protected us and let us hide here.

If you're like this, God will punish us
even if we leave here.

- Okay, okay.
- If you're like this, we--

Okay! Stop. I just won't eat, okay?

No, you can't do that.

Oh, great. I say one thing and
he comes back at me with ten.

I'll just gnaw on my beef jerky, okay?

Okay.

Professor Chen, here.
Have a drink to freshen up.

Thank you, thank you.

In the past, we worked
in the countryside all year long.

And then we were locked in a bullpen

and had to work at the
May Seventh Cadre School.

Then we had to excavate at a labor farm.

We lived through all that
because of this.

Here. Thank you.

Hu, if it weren't for you

I would have dried out as a
mummy in the desert.

- Thank you, thank you.
- Don't mention it.

This is my job, right?

I can't just get
Miss Yang's money for nothing.

But if we keep going

even if we get past the storm, the heart
of the Black Desert should be up ahead.

That environment will be
more brutal than this one.

I understand. Don't worry about me.

Archaeology is my life.

Besides, we'll live through
this sandstorm.

So we must be very lucky.

Mr. Hu.

Mr. Hu, I thought you were too young to
be the captain of this archaeology group.

I was worried you didn't have the
experience or capability

to lead everyone.

But now it seems that
you're very suited for the role.

But there's one thing
I need your help with.

What is it? You can tell me, Boss.

Since we're all trapped here,
morale is low.

I'll put it this way. I want you to say
something to lift everyone's spirits.

You mean you want me to boost morale?

That's a bit difficult.

Hey, you, you. Comrades.

Comrades, when we march, we sing.

That was a tradition with my troops.

Let's all sing a song, okay?

Hu, what do you mean?

Why don't you start off?

What? Let's just talk.

Sit, sit. Let's talk.

I'll tell you about what happened
in the front line of a battle.

You're telling a story?

It goes like this.

One time, we tried to get to a firing
range that would put us above the enemy.

But we both set off for the same firing
range, and that range was at a dead end.

We couldn't annihilate them
with our firepower

so I led my company
to take them by storm.

But we failed three times.

Over ten comrades died,
and seven sacrificed themselves.

My company was known as the hero company!

We never fought a pointless battle.

So the soldiers were very dispirited
and morale was low.

I was starting to get worried,
and then the regimental commander called.

He gave me a good
tongue-lashing over the phone.

What are you guys doing?

Can you do this or not?
If you can't, then give up your position!

Give up your title as the hero company!

Let another company take it!

Internally, I said I couldn't do that.

How could I do that?

So then I came up with an idea.

I went back and told all my comrades

that the Central Military Committee
had just called.

Deng Xiao Ping knew about
what our company did at the front line.

He praised our company

and said that we could definitely do it.

My comrades said "What? Deng Xiao Ping?"

Deng Xiao Ping knows about our company?

Then we can't embarrass ourselves.

Everyone's spirits were up and we
got to the firing range with one assault.

Hu, how did you guys get there?

Yes, how long was the battle?
How many people died?

Huh?

No, the reason I'm telling you this story

is to tell you that no matter
what challenges we face

the biggest enemy is ourselves.

As long as we can prevail over own fear

and overcome our own weaknesses
we will definitely be victorious.

That was great.

Who knows when the storm will pass?

Who knows?

Fatso, let's bury those bones.

It's uncomfortable for everyone
to leave them here.

Let's bury them there.
We can't get out over there.

Okay.

- Professor, it's all set up.
- Okay, get some rest.

What's wrong?

You reached the bottom?

That's not possible.
This building can't be that short.

Is there something down there?

I'll give you some light.

- What is it?
- What is it?

A black stone egg?

This building must have been
a government or business office.

The sand has buried half of it.

How tall is this stone
that it can poke out here?

Who cares. Let's just dig it out.

Here. Come over here.

Wang, be careful.

It's a head.

It's so ugly.

This looks like a religious statue.

Don't touch it.

Don't touch it anymore.

Don't mind him.

Ai Guo, have we seen this
stone statue somewhere before?

Yes, inside the coffin in Xinjiang,
there was one that looked just like it.

The eyes were exceptionally big.
They were different from normal people.

These should be the same big eyes.

That wasn't the only place.

At Tianshan Mountain, Altay prefecture,
Hotan River basin, and Mongolian prairie

we found similar statues
with these large eyes.

Professor Chen, what's the
origin of this stone statue?

Archaeologists don't agree on
the origin of these kinds of statues.

Some think they're gods
worshiped by the Mongols.

But others think they were
left behind by the Turks.

Even now, there's no accepted origin.

It's still a puzzle.

Professor, since this statue
is so incredible

why don't we dig it out and take a look?

No, you can't!

God arranged for that to be there.

If you mess with it,
God will punish you.

We're doing archaeology research,
not messing with it!

Sir, get up.

You keep talking about
religion, God, and spirits.

What religion do you believe in?

I believe in whoever blesses me.

In any case, you can't mess with it.

- You must not mess with it.
- Okay, sir, we won't mess with it.

Everyone must be tired.
Let's get some rest.

Come on. Get some rest.

After we've gotten some rest...

You must not mess with it.

We can tidy up the this area
and see if we find anything else.

- Good night.
- Good night.

- Get some sleep.
- Everyone, get some rest.

Fatso and I will bury those bones.

Get some rest.

Why aren't you sleeping
and just tossing around?

I want to see what An Li Man is doing
in the middle of the night.

You want to smoke?

I'm going to take Xiao Sa's place.

Get some sleep. I'll call you
if I can't take it anymore.

Call me if anything happens.

Friend, I'm back.
You can relax and sleep.

Xiao Sa, I'll take your place. Go sleep.

Thank you, Brother Hu. Did An Li Man
say when this sandstorm will pass?

It will pass.

Go sleep. We have to be
on our way when you wake up.

Okay. Brother Hu, stay safe.

You're not sleeping?

Mr. Hu, I'll take your place.

You can sleep for two hours.

It's okay. I just took over for Xiao Sa.

If I can't take it anymore,
I'll get Fatso. You should get some rest.

Thank you for today.

What?

Nothing.

You're welcome.

So you heard me.

I couldn't react in time.

Forget it. It doesn't matter.
You don't have to explain. I understand.

You don't have to thank me.
I didn't do much.

This is my job.

I don't want to thank you anymore.

Miss Yang, I've been
wanting to ask you something.

But I never found the right opportunity.

What is it?

Why do you and your father
have to find Jingjue Kingdom?

They say that this city doesn't exist.

Moreover, no one has seen
it all these years.

I saw a news report before

that said that three explorers

wanted to find Jingjue Kingdom.

But after they got here,
they went missing.

After a long time, people found
their corpses at the desert border.

They all died from dehydration.

But the weird thing is, all of their
canteens were still half full.

There are many weird things like this.

I just wanted to say that people know
too little about the desert.

We can do our best to look for it.
It'll be great if we can find it.

But if we can't find it,
don't blame yourself.

What you say sounds reasonable.

But I still believe
Jingjue Kingdom exists.

Because ever since my father went missing

I've had the same dream
almost every night.

I always dream about a big black cave.

There's a hanging coffin engraved with
Devil's Cave characters.

There's something large above the coffin,
but I can't see what it is.

Every time I try to see what it is,
I wake up from the dream.

For the past six months,
I keep dreaming the same dream.

I firmly believe that this is a
dream my father passed to me.

Inside the tomb is the Jingjue Queen.

I didn't expect that Americans
would also be superstitious

and believe in passing dreams.

But you can't just
believe in the existence

of the Jingjue Kingdom
because of a dream.

For as long as I can remember, my father
has always been reaching Jingjue Kingdom.

When he was in the US,
he bought a historical relic.

It's a precious relic that some European
explorers found in the Xinjiang desert.

Those European explorers found
traces of a kingdom near Niya.

After some research, they found that

the traces and relics
were from the Han Dynasty.

Those were probably traces
of the Jingjue Kingdom

the richest and most powerful kingdom
of the 36 kingdoms.

But after years of research,
my father and Professor Chen

concluded that the traces in Niya

were only from an auxiliary city
of the Jingjue Kingdom.

The true Jingjue Kingdom
should be north of Niya

downstream of the
Zidu subterranean river.

My father wanted to see Jingjue Kingdom
himself while he was alive.

So he took the risk and organized
a group to go into the desert.

They met with mishap
at the glacier of Karakoram.

His whole life, he was so fascinated
by Jingjue's Devil Cave civilization.

I'm really sorry.

For what?

I haven't helped you find
your father's remains.

I feel sorry for him.

When he needed my support the most,
I wasn't by his side.

Now that I'm going on his path...

I understand how he felt.

If he's really dead and a spirit

he'll see everything
that you're doing now.

It's just that there's not much recorded
about this once glorious kingdom.

Jingjue was the leader of the group
of kingdoms in the western region.

When the last queen died

this city disappeared in the sand

until the eve of World War II

when a British explorer
by the name of Walter

led an exploration team
into Taklaman desert.

In the end, he was the only one
who made it out alive.

By then, he had already lost his mind.

But the pictures in his camera
and the records in his journal

proved that Jingjue Kingdom exists.

Later, others wanted to find
Jingjue Kingdom using those clues.

But then World War II broke out.

Many things got set aside.

This is Walter's journal?

Ga Wa died because of this.

My father bought this journal in England.

The records only go up to when they were

downstream of the
Zidu subterranean river

and saw a huge kingdom.

They decided to explore
it in the morning.

There is nothing else after that.

I don't know what they ran
into inside the kingdom.

Why did only a man who had
lost his mind survive to come back?

It's all in English.

It knows me but I don't know it.

There are a lot of clues about
Jingjue Kingdom in here.

I have to study it more.

But we can be sure that
we're on the right track.

But I have to find that place to find out

what exactly it is that my father was
so fascinated by all these years.

This has been a riddle
to me all this time.

As long as we're on the right track,
we'll keep going.

I'm sure we'll find it.

I'm really worried about this sandstorm.

Jingjue Kingdom is so mysterious.

Thank you for listening to me.

I was interested.
It's not like I was forced to do it.

I won't say anymore.

You should hurry and get some rest.

We have to depend on you
for the journey ahead.

It's okay. I'm not tired.

Did you see that?

I feel like the eyes of
that statue moved.

It didn't. You must be tired.

Maybe.

I think you must be really tired.
Go get some rest.

I'll take care of things here.

Okay. Wait here a bit.
I'll have Fatso take over for you later.

Such a huge ant.
