Old Woodsman

Weren't you always

watching this ginseng?

How could that be?

There was only one chance.

Brother,

Forest fires are no joke.

If you can't save it, don't force it.

Don't worry.

I used to be a woodsman too.

I know my limits.

Please, keep an eye on

our precious ginseng.

Alright.

The mute boy must have switched it.

Old Woodsman,

yesterday,

you took us on a detour

to that little pond.

In this area,

is that the only spot?

Yes.

Uncle,

you want to wait there

to catch the mute boy?

He's probably long gone.

I took a quick look yesterday.

Before we arrived,

no one had been there.

Alright then.

You stay here and watch Old Woodsman.

I'll go to that little pond.

and wait for a while.

It's worth a try.

Don't worry, Boss.

My uncle is really capable.

He'll definitely get the ginseng back.

Boss,

Boss,

A man from Laiyang, surname Sun,

crossed mountains and rivers to dig for ginseng.

Lost a good brother along the way.

Can't find him, and it hurts.

Ate a mole cricket for three days.

Tell me, isn't that heartbreaking?

Someone from home came looking for me.

Followed the old river upstream to search.

If anyone else gets lost in the mountains,

I'll be their guide.

Uh, uh, uh...

No, not this...

Old geezer

Where are you running?

I thought you were an old woodsman from the mountains.

Turns out you're just a rookie.

No.

What do you really do?

Fine, I'll let you die knowing the truth.

Ginseng

I switched the ginseng.

What can you do to me?

Since you stole the ginseng,

You...

You should've left this forest long ago.

It's all because of this trap pit.

Trap pit

Yeah, the trap pit.

Since you got out of the pit,

Why did you cover it up again?

This stupid pit

kept me stuck for two days.

I had a rough time.

No one else should have it easy.

Didn't expect it to come true so fast.

Here, take it.

Come back, let's talk things over again.

Uncle

Uncle

Every family is having a reunion.

Holding my ginseng.

Hurry up and go.

Stop pretending, speak up.

Where's my uncle?

He's in the pit.

Uncle

Xiao Gui

Uncle

We got the ginseng back.

Good.

Go save Lao Batou.

Uncle

What's wrong?

Lao Batou

He's gone.

Brother

Looks like I won't make it.

Inside here are

the names of all the brothers who died.

Aren't you fighting the Japanese invaders?

You have to find a way

to get the ginseng back.

Take it.

Sell it for money.

Recruit people and buy guns.

If you drive out the Japanese invaders,

everyone

can finally live in peace.

Don't worry, don't worry.

As long as we drive out the invaders,

I'll go door to door

and return all the money.

Whether I can or not,

you

just count it

as part of fighting the invaders.

Gui'er

You have to kneel.

Brothers

Lao Batou

This is all the strength we have.

Please forgive us.

And also,

let us borrow

the ginseng gang's outfits.

You guys have a strong smell.

This will help us

avoid a lot of trouble on the road.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Lao Batou

Everything you told us

is engraved in my heart.

You can set out without worry.

Brothers

Safe travels.

What are you doing?

Help!

Stop staring.

Go to sleep.

Unlucky guy.

Take him away.

No one admits who did the killing.

Right?

The ones who stirred up trouble a few days ago,

were Korean, correct?

All Koreans,

step forward.

Stand to my right.

Form a line.

Tell me,

who is the killer?

Three.

Two.

How interesting.

I heard you Koreans

are very united.

I’d like to see that for myself today.

Each of you, pick one.

Let’s have an intimate showdown.

The rule is,

only one survives.

Afterwards,

I won’t pursue this matter any further.

Three, two, one.

Aren’t you starting yet?

If you don’t start,

all Koreans

die.

I think

You two need to take this seriously.

Push me harder.

Push me harder.

Hurry up.

Brilliant.

That was truly brilliant.

Victory.

Congratulations.

Absolutely brilliant.

From now on,

everyone should get along peacefully.

Remember,

the only reason you can stay here

and survive

is to work.

Uncle

Wake up, Uncle

Gui

Look over there

Am I just seeing things because I'm hungry?

Is that a horse?

We keep running into each other

It's fate

Haven't you had enough of a beating?

You want more?

Can't let go

I'm awake

How was your sleep?

Is this what you told me about?

Those two scallions?

Just these two scallions

They've got some skills

Skills

What about it?

Can they fly?

Or dig underground?

Come on

Let me have a look too

Why are you staring at me?

Hand over the ginseng

Let this guy play deaf and mute

Sneak into the ginseng crew and steal ginseng

Your idea

His idea, I did it

Still bragging, huh?

Look at how you handled this

Didn't you say I didn't need to come down?

Hurry up and bring the ginseng

Bring the ginseng, bring it here

Still thinking about acting tough?

You two still have the energy to act tough?

In your pants

Stop showing off

Making a mess of everything

It's not a good look

Brothers

Show yourselves

Everyone, come out

Hand it over, hand it over.

Go away.

Didn't expect you

to be so loose-tongued.

You're pretty clever.

You've got some skills.

This guy with seventeen lives on his back

is dangerous to handle.

This mountain is all mine.

You guys are nothing here.

Who has food on them?

Save some for those two.

Don't die on my turf.

Tough folks.

Leave your name.

White Horse Bandit of Congshan.

Hey, you.

Bring the horse over.

Let's go.

Guard dogs in the daytime,

searchlights at night.

They watch us

closer than livestock.

After what happened yesterday,

even if we fart now,

the Japanese can smell it.

If we kill him now,

our whole gang

would have to pay with their lives.

That Korean guy,

what's his story?

Do you know?

No idea.

He's pretty tough.

Find a chance to talk to him.

What?

With him like this,

he was even in the resistance.

You know,

White Horse Bandit of Congshan

used to be famous.

But why is he a bandit now?

That's hard to say.

Uncle.

If you hadn't stopped me just now,

I would've fought them.

How many could you take down?

Not many, to be honest.

Take out the leader first.

I could get White Horse Bandit first.

If we show our weapons,

our cover's blown.

The main thing is,

what are they up to now?

It's unclear.

If they're connected to the Japanese,

we won't survive.

After all this trouble,

almost dying in the woods,

the bandits got the benefit.

I feel sorry for the old leader

and our ginseng crew.

We have to endure it.

Eat more, eat up.

Don't let your body give out.

Thanks.

This advantage

really can't be theirs.

Can't let them take it.

Right?

So what do we do?

We

follow them first,

wait in their hideout,

and act when the time is right.

Okay.

Bastard.

Second brother.

Keep an eye on everyone.

Okay.

Wait for me to come back.

Bastard.

Hurry up and get up.

Is he dead?

Get up.

Get up.

Get up.

Hurry up.

Come on, get up, hurry!

You two.

Yes, you two.

Carry him away.

Take him away.

Help me, I don't want to die!

Wait, please wait!

He's still alive.

So annoying.

He's dead this time, right?

Take him away.

Why are you just standing there?

Hurry up.

What did I tell you?

Uncle

The woman in the car

Why does she look so much like Sister Hua?

It really is Hua

That bastard is with him

The bandit chief is back

Hurry, open the door

Open the mountain gate

The bandit chief is back

The chief is back

The bandit chief is back

Chief

Chief

How was the haul?

Are you blind?

Can’t you see all those carts?

Big brother is back

Big brother, big brother is back

Big brother

You’re back

Slow down

So fresh

Big brother

Who is it?

Come on, get moving, hurry up

Who is it?

Ask him

No

What are you all staring at?

Unload

Get to work

Unload, unload

Come on, unload, unload

Hurry up, hurry up

Come

Take it

Take it

What are you still thinking about?

Come down

You’re a bandit

Doesn’t matter what I am

You’re just herding sheep on the Gobi now

You’ve got nothing

Go inside, quick

Check the wound on your leg

Second brother

Give that job to third brother

Okay

Get her inside

Can you walk?

If you can walk, go inside

Close the mountain gate

Uncle

Let’s go

Us?

We really can’t go head-to-head with them

Sister Hua went into the bandit den

How could that end well?

Here’s the plan

I’ll go alone

I’ll deal with them myself

No way

This time we have to go together

That’s an order

You don’t know the bandit code

If you slip up

That’ll be big trouble

Here

Stay put

What are you looking at?

Go change the water.

How's your leg injury?

Let me take a look.

What are you afraid of?

I'm not going to eat you.

Come here.

I'll do it myself.

You know,

Good thing it's a through wound.

Otherwise, the bullet

would've stayed inside your flesh.

You get that?

You're a tough girl.

You've got quite a temper.

All by yourself,

you dare to stand up to the Japanese.

What do you do?

Revenge.

Revenge.

What are you avenging?

The Japanese killed my mother.

What's your name?

What is it?

Lan Hua'er.

That's a nice name.

Lan Hua'er.

That forest we ran into today,

I hadn't been there in ages.

But today,

I went there,

and met you.

Even saved you.

So,

isn't this fate?

I brought you some clean clothes.

Change into them later.

This place is called Congshan.

As for me,

I'm called Xiao Bai Ma.

Anyway, while you're here with me,

just two words:

Recover.

If you want to eat something,

just let me know.

If you need anything, call me.

What are you doing here?

Brother, brother.

I need to see your chief about something.

Stop right there, don't move.

I really...

I have something urgent to discuss with him.

Wait here.

The brothers are all doing fine.

How is it?

Everyone back home is fine.

You sure know how to make conversation.

We just met, didn't we?

Just trying to warm things up.

Still trying to warm up, huh?

You're asking for trouble.

They'll beat you to a pulp.

Why did you come here?

What now?

Just you alone?

You think you can take the ginseng back by yourself?

I'm not here for the ginseng, I'm looking for White Horse Bandit.

There's something else.

What is it?

So?

Is everyone in the village useless?

I'm here empty-handed.

I came alone.

Scared?

Stop wasting time.

I don't buy it.

You think your fists

can really do anything here?

Open the door.

Open the mountain gate.

What are you looking around for?

Stop looking around.

Don't stare aimlessly.

Say what you need to say here.

What?

You want to talk right here at the gate?

Don't you know the rules?

Alright.

The people inside

are all fine.

Don't beat around the bush.

Just say it straight.

I came up the mountain to find

my daughter.

Which one is your daughter?

The one who came up the mountain with you.

She's your daughter?

Of course.

So the father-in-law is here.

Come on in.

Let's talk inside.

Japanese officer

Commander Xiao

Yes
