[Episode 29]

Lord, this iron is too strong.

It's too hard to cast.

You try.

Okay, okay.

Come on, I'll do it.

Lord.

This iron is really unusual.

It's too hard to cast.

Lord, please wipe your sweat.

Okay, okay.

Let's take a break.

Take a rest.

OK.

General Geng has increased my knowledge.

Here.

Thank you.

General Geng is very young and promising.

Thank you.

General Geng is very good.

Generals from Central Plains are smart.

We're really far behind.

Yeah.

I respect you.

Generals.

General Geng.

You are flattering me.

I'm a new comer and I act rashly.

Please forgive me for that.

Not a problem.

We should praise you!

Lord.

You have been working hard.

Khan is satisfied with the training.

All battalions are rewarded.

Khan's kind enough

to give money and food

to the families of the new recruits.

Thank you, Khan. Thank you, Chief.

Here's Khan's will, generals, listen up.

Yes.

The recruits have passed the examination.

You should all follow military orders.

All set out today

and go to the front to help.

Yes. Yes.

The prosperity of Dajin is in your hands.

I hope you will live up to your mission.

Please rest assured, Chief.

Please rest assured, Chief.

Go back to your camp.

Yes.

General Geng.

You need something?

Chief, it was my fault today.

I'm willing to take the blame.

You confused me.

What's the matter?

I hope you can plead for mercy for me

in front of Khan.

Don't blame our soldiers.

Tell him about it yourself.

Please, Chief.

You dare not say it.

And you want to me say it?

I...

It's not that I'm scared.

It's just...

Don't worry.

You are the Golden Imperial Guard now.

You'll have a lot of time to meet Khan.

You can talk to him later.

Golden Imperial Guard.

I forgot to tell you.

I almost sent you away with them.

Geng Yu Jing, listen up.

Yes.

Geng Yu Jing, commander of the second battalion, is smart and brave.

Your soldiers master excellent martial arts.

Geng Yu Jing is appointed as Golden Imperial Guard.

The whole battalion is deployed to guide outside Jinding

and protect Khan.

Second battalion will do so.

Thank you, Khan.

Shui Ling, come.

Mr. Song.

Mr. Song, how are you?

No progress.

It's just a piece

of iron that can't be cast.

Mr. Song.

If you can't forge this sword,

there's no one else in the world who could.

Don't worry, Mr. Song. There will always be a way.

I've looked up some ancient books

on forging siderite.

According to the ancient books,

there is a kind of potion that may work.

Mr. Song.

Where can we help you

find this potion?

You don't need to.

I'll do it myself.

I was rude just now.

Since you both trust me,

I'll try again.

Go back and have a rest.

Thank you, Mr. Song.

No worries.

See you.

Go.

Potion...

Good, great.

So

we have taken the initiative.

Jing, with your ability,

I swear by Qiao that...

Grandpa!

Qiao.

Come on, come on.

Great news.

Even so,

you can't swear by your granddaughter!

Jing is so promising.

Even if I lose you to him,

I think it's worth it.

What did you do

that made grandfather so happy?

I was chosen to be Nurhaci's Golden Imperial Guard.

Really?

Look how promising my grandson-in-law is!

Grandpa, what are you talking about!

Mr. Song, is there still no progress?

Come.

I didn't expect the time to come so soon.

But this is just the beginning.

Jing.

You need to make them

trust you step by step.

Don't be greedy and rash.

Roger that.

And

to win Nurhaci's trust,

you must be very careful.

Be careful!

OK.

Brother Liang.

I still worry about the ancient siderite.

Even Mr. Song couldn't do anything with it,

what shall we do?

Since it's a foreign object from the sky,

we can't do much about it.

Let's just leave it as it is.

Why don't we wait and see?

Mr. Song is so knowledgeable.

If this thing can be made into a good sword,

it's better.

OK.

In that case,

let's pick some herbs

and send it to Mr. Song.

Maybe he needs it.

Shui Ling.

You are so considerate.

I'm not.

I admire Mr. Song's talent.

He devoted all his wealth to compiling wonderful books.

It is a great contribution to the future generations.

If we can help him,

it's good.

OK, I'll follow you.

Let's go.

Go.

My Channeler Baturu.

You are here.

I know that

you have brought me the will of immortality.

The Central Plains

will be controlled by us Jurchens!

My grandsons will be

sitting in the court in the capital!

You will follow me

and fly in the vast land.

The place where we collect herbs

is a little far away.

We have to cross this mountain to get there.

I can climb all the mountains

as you're here with me.

Don't complain later.

OK.

You two, please wait.

Please wait.

Isn't this Mr. Song's man?

I finally caught up with you.

What's the matter?

Our Lord asked you to come over.

It's done.

Let's go and have a look.

Take the lead, please.

Please.

Go.

Come on, take it here.

OK.

Come on, come on.

Come on, come!

Come.

Hold it tight.

Come on, come.

OK, put it in.

Done.

We will see after quenching.

Mr. Song.

Is it done?

I'm not sure about it.

But this time,

I've used a trick.

Mr. Song, what treasure is this?

This is a potion made with ancient method.

No matter how tough the gold, silver or steel is,

a drop of potion

will melt it.

I'd like to see

if it's so magical.

Come.

Guys, get it out.

OK.

Come.

Come and put it there.

Is it OK?

Mr. Song, it's perfect.

Yu Jing.

Qiao.

This is for you.

Bamboo flute.

For me?

Try it.

Idiot.

Let me show you.

Qiao, you are quite good.

You can practice ventriloquism with this.

It's much easier than using your mouth only.

What about my fingers, like this?

This way.

OK, try now.

Good.

After you master it,

you can also play music with this short flute.

Take it with you.

When you're tired, take it out and divert yourself from boredom.

Look, it's like an eye!

What an ancient sword!

Right.

It is the deep, black eye of God

that sees everything.

Calm and soothing,

watching every move in the world.

This sword is made by man and nature.

By rain and lightning,

it has got the essence of heaven and earth.

It is the essence of metals and the essence of the sun.

In order to forge this sword,

a thousand-year siderite was formed,

the waves rose.

Now this sword has become a masterpiece.

Listen.

The wind and the birds are singing.

How nice!

If there comes a day when

we have nothing to worry about,

let's find such a paradise

and live there, OK?

What are you looking for?

What are you looking for?

I made this wooden sword

when I was free.

Here you go.

You're very ingenious.

Mr. Song.

You are the first who makes this kind of sword.

You are flattering me.

But at last, I made an invincible

weapon that's not combative.

My dream has come true.

Thank you, Mr. Song.

Benevolent is invincible.

The ancient sword comes from Wudang.

It's a sword of benevolence.

It's vigorous and powerful.

Keep it well

and bring it back to Wudang.

Don't worry, Mr. Song.

Mr. Song, you tried your best to

forge this sword.

Mr. Song, please name this sword.

I didn't think about that.

What shall we call it?

This meteorite is from Wudang.

And Wudang is where Xuan Wu Tati is.

What about we call it Xuan Wu sword?

What do you think, Mr. Song?

Not good.

Although the siderite comes from Wudang,

it has gathered heaven and earth's aura.

It should be called

heaven and earth sword.

I think

this sword should be called Taiyi sword.

Taiyi?

Taiyi is what Taoism calls Tao.

Wudang is the orthodox school of Xuanmen.

It is Taoism.

And Tao is the principle of all things.

Taiyi Sword

is a good name.

Mr. Song.

Weather it's called Taiyi Sword

or heaven and earth sword,

or Xuan Wu sword,

can you please

carve the sword character on it?

It is still a problem.

This sword can be forged,

but the material is too hard.

It's very difficult to carve words on it.

I'll try.

Thank you, Mr. Song.

Slow down. Don't fall.

All right, all right, Qiao.

Qiao, you wait for me.

What?

I'll take you around

and find a good place.

Then we will live together.

Never be apart again.

Come back!

Yu Jing, come back.

Come and get me.

No, you try.

All right.

Done.

OK.

I see.

Go ahead, please.

In the beginning, when all things came into being, the Tao established the One.

Later, it was decomposed into heaven and earth and evolved into everything.

How about this sword

One Sword?

One Sword?

Good name.

It should be called One Sword.

Carve it.

OK.

It's my fault.

But don't worry.

I will find a way

to carve this word.

Mr. Song.

I have something to ask of you.

Go ahead.

Sir, we talked it over.

We want to leave this sword at your home now.

This is a masterpiece of Wudang.

I dare not hide it in my house.

Sir, you may not know

that we are both hunted down by our enemies.

That's why we came here.

If we take it with us, we can't protect it.

That's why we ask you to keep it for us.

The Wudang disciples

will take this sword home.

Please help us, sir.

Please help us.

I'll keep it for you.

Thank you, Mr. Song, on behalf of Wudang disciples.

No, no. No worries.

Thank you, Mr. Song.

No worries.

Please get up, please.

I'm the Golden Imperial Guard.

But I'm actually responsible

for the peripheral checking.

It's too far from Nurhachi's camp.

As I observed,

Nurhachi is protected by many people whenever he goes.

I've never seen him.

I can only see his back from a distance.

You just got hired.

It's normal that they don't trust you.

But this won't work.

I have to find a way to see him.

Nurhachi is cunning.

To get his trust,

you must go through life or death,

otherwise it's very difficult.

Life and death?

Shui Ling.

Look.

What is it?

This is the most famous herb in Shennongjia.

It's called seven leaves and one flower.

It can cure sore throat,

snakebite

and convulsions.

Brother Liang, but you have to be careful.

This herb

is toxic.

It can only be applied externally.

How to pure the poison then?

After decocting licorice,

we put white rice vinegar and ginger juice together with it.

Take half in and gargle half.

You know a lot, Shui Ling.

Watch it!

I'm all right.

You look like dirt.

It's filthy.

Master Shui Ling.

Master Shui Ling.

Please accept your apprentice's worship.

It's fine.

Please get up.

You're not humble at all, huh?

Not humble?

-Stop it. -Not humble?

Don't run. Stop.

Stop! Who's it?

The assistant hired by Khan.

Assistant?

Khan asked me to amend the map of Central Plains.

Do you have weapons with you?

No.

Raise your hands.

Lord, no weapons.

Go.

Amending maps

is not something that a weak student can do.

Only the common people

know the terrain best.

Yeah.

Khan, this is the map of the Central Plains I amended.

Please check.

Look at his footprints, he knows martial arts.

How could he be a scholar?

Give it to me.

Damn!

Protect Khan!

Don't hurt the assassin.

Khan!

Uncle Su.

Meet plot with plot, call the imperial doctor.

Khan is injured. Call the doctor!

Yes. Yes.

Khan!

Khan!

Brother Liang, why are you here?

I'm worried about you.

What did you see?

You're in the water.

I... Of course I didn't see anything.

Go back first.

I'll go back after bathing.

Don't peek.

Okay, okay, I...

I'm not peeking. I'm leaving.

Brother Liang, you haven't slept yet?

I'm going to sleep.

Shui Ling.

Your hair is really long.

Shui Ling.

When I was by the river just now,

I saw you wash your hair.

Speaking of which,

Yu Jing used to get water for me

when I was washing my hair.

Now I'm here.

You don't need him anymore.

Yu Jing this kid.

He's been in the region to the east of the Liao River for so long,

but he didn't give us a message.

My brother

wouldn't go home as soon as he goes out.

Maybe Yu Jing

has become the first expert there.

And he can't bear to come back.

Yu Jing is not like that.

Alright.

It's getting late. Go to bed now.

Are you really willing to give up the first sword in the world?

As long as I'm with Shui Ling,

yes.

You are willing to live in Shennongjia for the rest of your life?

As long as I'm with Shui Ling,

I'm willing to.

You're willing to.

I'm willing to!

For Shui Ling...

You'll regret it!

You'll regret it.

You'll regret it.

You will regret it!

I won't!

I will never regret it.

I will never regret it!

You may leave.

Yu Jing.

Come.

Khan.

Yu Jing.

You saved my life twice.

You're Dajin's savior.

I don't deserve it.

I used to hide my identity from you.

You won't blame me, right?

Please don't say that.

You can take temporary setbacks.

You didn't show any trace when disguising as ordinary people.

It's really amazing.

I'm too stupid.

I couldn't recognize Khan.

I'm ashamed.

Yu Jing.

You were born in Central Plains, honest and kind.

You're a loyal and chivalrous man.

And you master excellent martial arts.

You're a man of great responsibility!

I really think highly of you.

I long wanted to have you as my man.

I learned from Chief Jin

that you were on our side.

This is exactly what I want.

Khan, thank you so much for that.

In the past, I felt that

Khan was a calm and wise man, you must be something.

I really admire you.

So,

we are both heroes and admire each other.

I dare not.

Rise.

Don't be so polite.

Yu Jing.

I have something to tell you.

Thanks to you last night,

the assassin didn't hurt me.

I met plot

with plot and pretended to be injured and dying.

This is the only way

to find out the spies hidden in our army.

Last night in camp,

I ordered not to hurt the assassin.

But a guard with a sword

still wanted to kill him.

He didn't leave until

the assassin died.

Obviously, he didn't want to see the assassin alive.

You're really meticulous.

I admire you.

I think it is very likely

that the guard was with the assassin.

He was afraid that

he might confess after being tortured.

That's why he killed him.

Makes sense.

Yu Jing.

I'm going to give you a secret mission.

Would you do it?

I'm willing to work for Khan.

You need to do it secretly.

Find out who is behind the assassin.

Yes.

This is a great opportunity,

Let's follow it,

take the opportunity to...

What's wrong?

Will you have a better chance?

There's something I need to say.

But you will blame me for it.

But I have to say it.

Go ahead.

I think

assassinating Nurhaci

will not help solve the problems

Ming Dynasty is facing.

It will only intensify the conflicts.

Dajin was established.

There are already people

who can inherit after Nurhaci.

If Nurhaci

is killed by people from Central Plains,

it won't stop their army

but provokes to the contradiction

between us.

By then,

I'm afraid those within the Great Wall can't resist.

Jing, you have changed your mind?

I want to protect the court.

The heaven and earth can prove for me!

That would never change!

But how to protect it?

I need to think it over.

You...

Why did you change so much?

What ecstasy did Nurhaci give to you?

Before, I only knew that Nurhaci had invaded Central Plains.

But he's also a wise emperor!

If Nurhaci is assassinated,

no one knows

if the people of the two nations

will have to suffer.

I don't think it's a good idea

to just kill him.

Do you remember that you are with the Ming dynasty?

You really disappointed me.

Grandpa.

Get out!
