The Lost Tomb Based on the novel "The Lost Tomb" by Uncle Three Discipline

- How is it, High Jr.? - Who allowed you to chat?

Mark my words. If you still can’t repair it, I’m going to dump you here.

And then you will have all the time to chat.

But you need to allow us time to repair it.

I’m working on it.

How much longer?

How can we tell?

Hey man, honestly,

we’ve been left hungry for a while,

and our minds can’t work properly. We need energy.

You can force us to work, but you need to give us something like snacks to eat.

Have some water.

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Dancing Fingers - Tomb Raiders @viki

You,

since you have accepted our water,

let’s make this clear.

Don’t make us any more trouble.

This is good stuff.

That’s a pity. Whatever fancy gadgets you get,

without the archeological experience, all the efforts here will just lead you to death.

These are all their guns.

How are they now? Not even one survived?

How did they die?

Ning, just stop asking.

They were all very loyal.

Get yourself together.

Perhaps several of them have escaped.

When you guys go back up there, you all should quit tomb robbery.

We are not here to steal cultural relics.

Then what are you all here for?

We’ve got another task.

Can we just cut the nonsense?

You came in a swarm with everyone armed to the teeth to get in the ancient tombs,

and you’re still saying you are not here to rob tombs?

Are you saying that you’re just like me? You’re here for, for archeological studies?

Fatty! You should cut your nonsense too.

So this is AEK971, right?

Compared with AEK74, AEK971 provides better accuracy,

with an increase of 15 to 20%.

Wu Xie, don’t touch anything.

Uncle Three, what is this?

So the actual coffin set is here.

Good heavens!

A coffin as big as this one must be worth a lot of money.

“A lot of money,” why is it the only thing that pops up in your mind?

Can you even move this big chunk?

Besides, did you just forget our purpose here?

To protect the treasures.

Yeah, right, yeah.

How many times have I told you?

This thing is called a coffin set, not just a coffin.

Don’t keep embarrassing me.

Coffin set, yeah.

Then I’m bewildered.

Why does this one pop up?

In addition to the Mysterious Seven-Star Coffins, and those others, how many coffins does this place hold?

Which one is actually real?

This Lord Shang of Lu was indeed a shrewd guy.

I can’t believe the actual tomb is inside the tree.

How did he design this trap?

Mr. Three Jr., let’s put aside this trap first.

Is this really Lord Shang of Lu inside?

Never mind about that.

We have strong firepower.

So, even if the lord crawls up from it, we can just put him back down.

Wu Xie, what’s it saying?

I don’t understand quite much either. But I can be certain that

the owner of this coffin set is Lord Shang of Lu, whom we are looking for.

His story recorded here is the same as what we know.

Lord Shang of Lu died at the age of around 40,

without any kids.

This hole doesn’t seem to have opened by itself.

It looks like it was the work of these chains.

Then can any one of you tell me

what this means?

It’s wrong. That’s very odd.

Others’ coffins or coffin sets would be nailed from the outside

so that it can’t be opened again,

but this one is very strange.

As what you just saw,

the trap just delivered this coffin set out.

It seems like the owner of this tomb intended to let the later generations to reopen it.

These chains were tied so tightly,

so it doesn’t seem to be here for fastening.

On the contrary, it seems like they are used to keep the things inside

from getting out.

Look over here.

Something’s written here too.

Mr. Three Jr., what’s it saying?

It seems to be the character for “note.”

And the record here is a date.

But about the occasion of the date,

I don’t have much idea.

- Would it be the time it was opened? - Come on.

Who would write the time of opening on a coffin set?

Did you hear that? What’s going on?

Is there anything alive inside?

Shut your nonsensical mouth. Don’t try to scare me.

How can it be possible?

This coffin set is so tightly sealed,

no air could be left inside. Given that somebody is really inside,

it’s been 3,000 years, so there’s no way he can survive.

How about opening it?

We can’t, Uncle Three.

Poker Face told us we shouldn’t touch anything,

let alone a coffin set like this one.

The most important thing now is to get back up there as quickly as possible,

because Chastity Chen and High Jr. are still in danger.

But Wu Xie, that explains

why we should open it all the more.

I said we should go upward, but that was just my conjecture.

If it’s different from what I think it is,

and when we get into new trouble, I’m afraid even I can’t guarantee you guys’ safety.

Look. There are so many traps.

- What? - And it’s got such a design.

Perhaps when we open it, we can find some

methods or clues inside to get out of here.

- But Uncle Three, we… - Wu Xie,

I think your uncle has got a point.

You know our priority now is to get out of here as soon as possible,

but as you can also imagine, what if we open this thing

and see a shortcut to get out of here?

And you know that it isn’t any easier to climb the tree, right?

Besides, we have wounded ones here.

Man, can’t you stop looking at us when we eat?

You’re killing my appetite.

We didn’t give you the food reserve for nothing.

If you still fail to repair the equipment after you eat,

you two should know clearly

what’s going to happen to you.

Take mine. I’m not hungry.

Now we have removed the first of many layers,

several more inside.

We must remove a couple of layers to have a better idea.

Okay, I’ll count.

One, two, three.

Why is it so heavy?

Again.

That heavy? Even all three of you can’t open it.

Okay people, move aside, move aside.

You guys just want Fatty to do it.

Move aside.

Can you do that? Don’t push yourself too hard.

Off you go!

Fatty’s got skill indeed.

You can bring down a wall and open a coffin set.

That’s no... nothing.

Good job.

What’s the standard for the tomb of Lord Shang of Lu?

Ordinarily, lords of the vassals of the Warring States are buried in two outer layers and three inner layers.

If this tree is the first outer layer,

you can say we have opened the second outer layer as well as two inner layers.

So you’re saying this innermost layer is worth the most money...

Well, it has the greatest archeological value. Right?

Isn’t the jadeite a little too big?

Haven’t seen much of this, huh?

This is Manas jadeite from Xinjiang.

The pattern carved on it signifies the hemispheric dome.

These inset large jadeites must be intact

to have their value of presence.

Pan Zi, take this away.

We don’t have much time left.

Do you have any plan now?

Even if the forerunners don’t send back any information, we can’t just wait here and do nothing.

When it gets dark, villagers here will drop by to check the mountain, so we can’t stay here for too long.

Have a good reconsideration about pulling back.

Stop persuading.

I’ve made up my mind.

The picture here should be the scene of the burial.

If that’s true, the one lying in here

must be Lord Shang of Lu himself.

If you want to know whether he is Lord Shang of Lu,

there is only one way to find out. Open it and take a look.

Pan Zi.

This is the last layer of the coffin.

I think we’d better be more prudent, and take it easy.

Why do I seem to hear breaths?

No kidding, please!

Is that man your uncle?

Did you develop a habit of frightening me? You heard breaths inside?

You think I’m an elementary school pupil? How silly!

Try it for yourself. But be careful.

Never mind. It’s got breaths then. Whatever.

Since we have come this far, we have no choice.

We can’t put those layers back, can we?

Wu Xie. Whatever happens, don’t hesitate.

And don’t forget to shoot.

Pan Zi.

Hey hey, wait, wait a moment. Wait a moment, wait.

Put that down. Put that down.

Do you Southern School guys know the fundamental?

What a bunch of amateurs!

What we are opening now is the coffin set of Lord Shang of Lu.

It’s thousands of years old. You think it is a simple sardine can,

which you can just open without prudence? How ridiculous!

Let’s do it in your way.

Okay, let me do it.

Move aside.

Don’t shoot.

He’s got all the good stuff on him. Don’t break them.

I thought it was some kind of mummy stuff.

There is a bar here. That explains why it was raised.

With the trap here, when this coffin set is opened,

the body will be raised.

An ordinary person would certainly be frightened to death.

Is this a jadeite figure?

I can’t even imagine this thing does exist.

The thing even Qin Shi Huang couldn’t find…

he’s actually wearing it.

Having spent half my life on visiting tombs,

I can’t believe I found something good here.

Uncle Three, what is a jadeite figure?

That means if you wear this thing,

you might be young again.

Really?

Old man, do you know how to take this thing off?

It’s said that it cannot be removed from the outside.

Do we really have to move it away?

Come on, man, stop kidding.

You Southern School guys are so naïve.

You guys don’t use your heads. Can’t you figure out something good for that?

I mean, of course we have to carry it off here.

Otherwise, how can you take it off? Can you do it here?

- Right on. - What if you break it? - Let’s do it.

Get on it then.

Okay, okay, be careful.

Don’t move.

What, Ning?

He’s breathing.

He’s still alive. And he’s even gasping.

It’s impossible. How can a dead man gasp?

Have you ever seen this before?

Of course not. Mr. Three Jr., no matter what, just give him a bullet.

No, Ning. Don’t do it for now. If he’s alive,

- we can’t shoot him. - Look around. And you still have the mood for this.

No. If he’s still alive, we will be committing a murder.

Okay, okay, okay. Wu Xie, I think you are too naïve.

An old man who never dies is a demon. It’s been 3,000 years.

So I don’t think he’s alive. It would be great if he’s alive,

because he can point us a way out.

Uncle Three, what are these things?

It’s his peeled skin.

What kind of skin disease has this Lord Shang of Lu got? That’s a lot of skin.

Stop your idiotic ideas. Every time his skin was changed, he became rejuvenated.

Judging from the amount of the skin, it should have happened for four or five times.

Whatever. Whether he’s still breathing or not,

we will still be taking off his jadeite figure, right?

High Jr., the noise is too loud. Turn it down.

I didn’t make that noise. It came from underground.

You didn’t? Then if what you said is true, we can’t make contact with Wu Xie.

I thought it was your tactic of some sort. Why are we having this noise?

Some weird magnetic field underground is interfering the signal.

The signal strength varies. So, it means…

They are moving. They haven’t stopped.

So, that means they are still safe.

Uncle Three, what are we supposed to do next?

Do we really have to move the entire body out of here?

Yes!

Yes what?

Fatty, you are great indeed. You’ve got sharp eyes. You could find it

even among so many threads and tiny little things.

Buddies of the Southern School,

don’t blame me for saying this.

Academically speaking, tomb robbery is a meticulous job.

You shouldn’t rush it. And we can’t do it in your way, in particular,

robbing everything in the tomb and ruining the whole place, right?

Now you guys should be thankful I’m here. Without me taking care of you here,

you wouldn’t be able to take it off

unless you disassemble it piece by piece.

I’m so proud of myself every minute I think about it, really.

I want to bow to myself. What do you think? Am I right?

Just shut up. Why didn’t you think it might be a trap?

It could be a trap right here.

My dear comrade, you are just jealous.

Watch me.

Watch out!

Who is this? Damn you.

Poker Face?

Hey, Ning!

Is this your partner?

He also drank the water in the tomb by mistake under the influence of his hallucination

and turned like this.

What were you trying to do?

Give me a thorough explanation right now.

Don’t presume your tattoo is going to scare me.

Do you understand?

To take your life.

Fatty.

Well, you’re taking action against me.

Come on. Let’s have a showdown with our best. Do you want to strike the first blow? Come on.

Fatty, what do you think you’re doing? Why can’t we talk this through?

- Can’t you hear that he wanted to have a showdown? Why are you dragging me? - Calm down!

Think how fast he can wield his blade. If he was really trying to kill you, could you still be standing here?

He’s right. Think about it.

Little Master always does anything for a reason. Besides, he has been helping you a lot all along.

So you should, on the contrary, thank him, right?

And you should give him the time he needs to explain himself.

So it’s obvious now. You three guys are talking for him,

so I don’t have a place here. I should stand aside.

But you have to explain yourself well,

or our relationship goes the other way.

- Fatty, take it easy. - I am taking it easy.

Well, Little Master. Just give him your explanation.

This thing peels every 500 years,

and only then that the jadeite figure can be taken off.

If you take it off with brute force,

the body inside will be turned into a blood corpse.

This living corpse inside the jadeite figure has been existing for over 3,000 years,

and as long as the thread is pulled, the corpse will rise,

and we will all die here.

So Fatty, you heard that?

He wasn’t trying to kill you. He was trying to save us.

Okay. Since your nonsense makes a tiny bit of sense,

I forgive you for the moment.

Little Master, Pan Zi, me, is a straightforward person.

I think you know this place quite well.

If it’s okay, tell us about it,

so that we don’t have to risk our lives.

You’ve lived long enough. You can die now.

Why did you murder him? He was still breathing.

Yeah! What is this?

We have come through all the toil and moil to get here to open this coffin set,

and you just killed him regardlessly? Don’t you think you need to explain your action?

There’s a mauve jadeite box inside the painted coffin.

Whatever you want to know

is in that box.

What kind of person are you?

Even if you know it, what can you do about it?

These are all thick dots, too small to read.

What’s it saying there?

This should be the life of Lord Shang of Lu.

I have studied this type of characters,

but I can read only a little bit of it.

That makes you the best among us.

Come on. Just read us whatever you can read. Come on, quickly.

From this record, I can understand two things only.

One of them is about how Lord Shang of Lu obtained his afterlife seal.

When Lord Shang of Lu was 20 years old, he inherited the official position from his father.

And he robbed the ancient tombs for the Army of Lu

to gather gold for the soldiers’ pay and provisions.

Once, he entered a tomb of an unknown year,

and he was surprised to find a giant serpent lying in the coffin.

Lord Shang of Lu cleaved the serpent straightaway,

cut its belly open by force,

and from the belly of the serpent,

he took a mauve gold box.

You mean the green-eyed fox’s mauve gold box?

Probably.

Wu Xie, continue.

At night in the dream of Lord Shang of Lu, this giant serpent came back for revenge.

The lord said, “I can kill you if I want.”

In the dream of Lord Shang of Lu, he cleaved the serpent again,

and when he was about to take the head of the serpent,

it begged him.

It said, “My body has been killed,

so if my consciousness disappears too, I will never have my next life.”

The serpent told Lord Shang of Lu there were two treasures in the mauve gold box,

which could guarantee the lord’s status,

and even told him how to open the box.

But Lord Shang of Lu knew very well that this secret must be kept in the heaven

from everyone in the mortal world. So, he cleaved the serpent and killed it.

- This Lord Shang of Lu was quite brutal. - Don’t interrupt.

Haven’t you heard that two treasures have been mentioned?

One of them must be the afterlife seal. Then what’s the other one?

This record doesn’t say what the other one is.

It just mentioned that it was quite handy to Lord Shang of Lu.

The serpent was dead, but Lord Shang of Lu still didn’t feel assured,

so killed all his subordinates and attendants as well as their families,

even including those just one-month-old babies.

This Lord Shang of Lu must have been obsessed by some kind of devil.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so ruthless.

You interrupted again. Can’t you just be quiet?

Can’t you just listen to Wu Xie?

You know. He couldn’t kill all those people by himself, right?

So he must have used the treasure in the box. Come on. Read us what’s next.

It sounds like you understand and know what’s going on.

How about this? You read it and then tell us about it. Go ahead.

In the next over ten years,

with the treasure Lord Shang of Lu had got, he was all victorious and enjoyed the glory of his time.

Catch them.

Release!

My dear!

Yao Guang, hang on.

You are on the precipice. Where do you think you can go?

Bring your pretty lady, and reunite in the underworld.

Your Majesty, watch your back.

Just leave me and go.

Watch out!

Mind your steps.

It’s you.

Why didn’t you come back all these times until now?

Where have you been all these years?

Yao Guang!

Come back up here.

Your Majesty, all rebels have been eliminated.

Yao Guang, have you been injured or wounded?

Was it too scary?

I’m fine. Major General saved me.

Major General, you have saved not only me,

but also my beloved concubine.

That’s a great contribution.

I must reward you to your heart’s content.

I don’t deserve it.

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Dancing Fingers - Tomb Raiders @viki

Yao Guang.

Why do you call me here?

Yao Guang, how did you…

How did I become the concubine of Duke of Lu?

Why couldn’t I wait to marry you?

You liar!

You told me you would build your own career for me, but you just left and never came back.

And for so many years, I can’t believe you didn’t even write me once.

My… My whole family told me you were dead.

They all said you were dead.

And they forced me to marry Duke of Lu.

I hate you.

I hate you! I hate you!

Where have you been all these years?

What were you doing?

I’m sorry, Yao Guang.

All these years, I’ve been digging ancient tombs to find gold for Duke of Lu.

Digging tombs is morally the worst thing to do,

so I have been concealing my identity.

Only Duke of Lu and his close attendants know my real identity.

You are a real man. But of so many lines of works,

why did you just choose this wicked one?

You have no idea.

Now in the Central Plain, all states are at war continuously,

so without treasures for the soldiers’ pay and provisions,

how is the army supposed to win?

But I just can’t believe I worked so hard putting my life on the line

just to find he robbed me of my beloved lady.

Since you said I am the lady you love the most,

leave this place with me.
