[Magic Star]

~ Episode 2 ~

Leave now.

Yes.

When I just entered the town,

I saw that you guys will be having a temple festival in a few days time.

We also want to join and have some fun.

I saw that you are not bad in doing magic tricks earlier.

Don't know if you are willing to work together.

Work together?

Ah! You guys are looking for someone who knows how to do magic tricks, is that it?

Then you really have found the right guy.

I...can produce pigeons out of the blue.

That...swallowing swords.

And that getting objects through walls, I'm good in all of them.

Those are all just childish tricks.

There is a big kind of magic tricks called Phoenix Nirvana.

Can you do that?

How is it done?

That is to place one person inside a burning cage to burn

and then make him disappear. That simple. Don't you know how to?

Burning cage? Burn?

- Men!
- Hey! Hey!

I can! I can! I know how to.

It's easy. That...

That...General Zha...

This...doing magic tricks, we have to talk about...

- Fee?
- That's right. That's right.

I understand. I understand.

Your fee will be three gold coins. Are you at ease now?

I'm at ease. I'm at ease. This...

Here's one first as my deposit.

Thank you, general. Please rest well.

Leave.

Gu Li, I think even the heavens are helping us.

I have been thinking about this throughout our journey. How will we get away?

Right now, this no good magician appeared before us.

This is a one in a lifetime opportunity.

Just tell them that you want to celebrate with the citizens and want to perform. But actually, you're going to let A Ji Ya go on stage for you.

We will let that Phoenix Nirvana fail.

Since so many people will be watching, no one will doubt it.

This can bring everything to an end.

We can leave everything behind together.

You are going to let A Ji Ya...

That brother of yours...just for those imaginary legendary magic stars,

he actually sent his own sister to that dark and deep Palace.

We also are just being forced to do it.

Even if A Ji Ya would be willing to disguise as you, but as time goes by, we can't help for people to notice some inconsistencies.

Let's just bet on it this once.

But...aren't there other methods. I will miss A Ji Ya.

Me too. But for us, someone needs to make a sacrifice.

After these couple of days, we will be free.

Greetings, Your Highness!

General Su, you can stand up.

May I ask, has the assassin been captured?

Ding Song said that he is still investigating it.

I hope that he is not just saying things with his mouth.

General Su, in this current situation, there are some things that you can think, but not say out loud.

I am only a commoner that knows to be loyal to you.

I have brought an excellent team back with me this time.

They will be outside the city waiting for orders from you anytime.

Good. With your words, I will be able to sleep well tonight.

While I am stationed outside for these past years, I've also heard of the domineering acts of Ding Song.

I do not understand

why the previous Emperor has given power to such a person.

Ding Song was regarded in the past as the first ever strategist of our empire.

They said that whoever gets to have give peace to the world.

The previous Emperor went to request for Ding Song to go out of seclusion numerous times, but was also rejected numerous times.

Until when the previous Emperor's health turned bad, Ding Song suddenly requested to join the government on his own.

At the same time, his little brother also joined the government that time, which later became the Heavenly Strategy Envoy Sun Yu.

Not long after, the previous Emperor died.

I just succeeded the throne and was still young.

Everything was decided by Ding Song. Slowly, his hold in the government increased.

And the more he doesn't put importance to me.

The Ding Song now and the one that the Emperor knew back then

is completely different.

With one word, I will go capture Ding Song.

I will make him understand that this world does not belong to him.

General Su, it is easy to capture him.

But his power extends from the government to the outside, into unimaginable place.

Perhaps before you received the secret letter to return to the city, he has already received it.

Remember, the more you rush, the more you won't succeed.

But we can first look at his bottomline.

I will remember it.

[Ding Residence]

Minister, these reports are talking about strange happenings in different places for the past month.

Some places claim that they were attacked by never before seen animals.

And fishermen in the sea claims they've seen the legendary Gold and Silver Island.

And the rock near Guangming (Light) Mountain is starting to heat up.

Say what is most important.

The Yanjiao (Goose Reef) Town in the northwestern border.

It was recently reported that something from the outer space crashed around the area a few days ago.

It only left a big crater but the item can't be found.

Could it be really the magic star?

Magic star?

Does the emperor not know about this?

Of course he doesn't. At first glance, I knew this was an important matter.

So, I have taken the important letters and brought it to you.

Right, how come I haven't seen that little Bai Ze appearing near the Emperor?

Oh, I heard from an eunuch that he was sent away on a mission by the king.

It seems that he has left even before the Heaven Offering Ceremony.

Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter?

If I asked you to monitor the Emperor, I expect you to keep an eye on Bai Ze too!

Sir, I only thought that Bai Ze went to get an item for the king.

That's why I didn't think much about it.

You have a pig's brain!

Recently, strange things have been happening in different places.

Right when Bai Ze leaves, Su Bing Rei returns to the city immediately.

Put these things together and think about it. Do you think it's just a coincidence?

I was wrong.

Go and monitor what is happening. Report back immediately is something is amiss.

Yes.

Bai Ze leaves and Su Bing Rei immediately returns to the city...

- Waiter.
- Hello, sir.

Are you looking for somebody for a place to stay and eat?

Little brother, I want to ask you about two people.

Where do Zhan Ke and Yuan San Lang live?

Zhan Ke and Yuan San Lang?

I don't think I've heard of these two people before.

Hey, sir. That looks like a really strong sword.

Let me tell you. The two people that you're talking about, I know them.

- Why don't we talk elsewhere?
- You know them?

- Thank you.
- No need.

Let me tell you. After seeing your face, I feel that we are fated to meet.

Come on in.

Wow. Your sword looks heavy. Let me help you.

Hey, little brother.

Can you hurry and tell me where Zhan Ke and Yuan San Lang is?

Temple festival? Our temple festival is starting soon.

- Let me tell you.
- I am in a very urgent situation right now.

What are you doing? Why did you hit me?

What are you holding that pillar?

Did you see that?

- What people are you? Why did you tie me?
- Hey, look at this.

Let me go! Don't touch me!

- Who are you?
- I think we sell that stone for a lot of money.

Let me go!

- Could he be from the city?
- What are you two doing?

What are we doing? I want to ask what you're doing!

I am Zhan Xiong Fei and he is Yuan Shuai.

The two people that you are talking about are our fathers.

They are your fathers?

Of course, or do you think they would be your father?

Where are they now?

They have long hung up.

What does "hung up" mean?

It's the same as kicking the bucket.

What does 'kicking the bucket' means?

It...it means that they are dead.

- They've passed away?
- They're dead.

Crap.

Dead? This is not good.

Brother Fei, don't you think that he looks like the person in this picture?

A little. Is your name Bai Ze?

Yes, that is me. I am Bai Ze.

You are the person that the princess is looking for?

What princess?

It is Yi's princess, Zi Su. She has a country-wide warrant for you. She's offering a thousand dollars.

Zi Su?

You kidnapped the princess?! Let me go!

Zi Su! Zi Su!

Everyone, stay here and guard. No one is allowed entry.

Yes!

Your Highness, you think that with that kind of intelligence you have, you can defeat me?

I am not publicly severing ties with you because I am giving considerations to that Magic Star that's in your hands.

I'll let you safe keep this magic star for now.

There will come a day that all five magic stars will end up in my hands and the whole world will be mine.

That's what happened.

What did I say?

I've always known we weren't just anyone.

Our dad's are actually talented, famous people.

- Extremely famous!
- Hey! Hey!

What are you two doing now?

Uh, he is a magician.

I am a chef.

What about the weapons that your dads have left behind?

We've sold the sword.

The sword from my dad is still here, but I'm using it as a chef's knife.

Never thought that the descendants of the Heavenly Strategy Envoys

will be in such dire straits.

Right,

do you two believe my story?

We do.

Do you believe that there are magic stars?

We believe.

Then quickly untie me.

Why should we untie you?

Whether we believe you and whether we should untie you are two different matters.

Then doesn't that mean you still don't believe me?

There's an item in my bag.

Take it out and see.

Go.

Right, open the top. That's right.

Is it this?

That's right.

This thing is called a Star Chart.

But I only have half.

If I can find the other half and put it together,

we can fine the exact location of the five magic stars.

Hey, have you guys seen this before?

Hey! This is that thing!

-What thing?
-Take it!

Out of the way. Out of the way.

Here.

It's this.

Hey.

That's right. Put it together.

Wow!

So fantastic!

But what are these nonsense that's written on it?

Isn't there something that looks like a map on here?

No way. Why couldn't I see it?

What about you?

I couldn't see it either.

You can really see what's on it?

I...

I can see it.

Could it be that in this world, only Brother Fei can understand this thing?

I'm that amazing?

Then hurry and look if the position of the magic stars is on it.

Okay.

What?

It's right where we are.

Here?

Brother Fei,

could it be that thing we picked up last time?

No way!

You have a magic star?

This is the magic star?

That's right. That is a magic star.

Hurry and untie me. I'm going to inform Emperor about it.

Huh?

Why should we untie you?

- Why?
- The magic star is ours now and also the star chart.

With these added together, we can get a good amount for it.

You're wrong.

When I came out, the Emperor told me

that as long as the magic stars are found,

then you are the most helpful person in our country.

If you bring the Magic Star back to the palace,

then you will have endless riches.

Hey, what do you think?

Hurry and untie me!

Everything you've said is true?

It's true.

Do you swear?

I swear.

No, just by saying this doesn't guarantee anything.

You need to write it in a piece of paper.

Okay, I will write it but you need to untie me first.

Since you've written it, we will be brothers that go through death and life together.

Here's your sword back.

I have something else I need to ask. Where did you two lock up Princess Zi Su?

Lock up?

We wouldn't dare to lock up the princess.

But you just said she was looking for me.

- Ah..that is...
- Zhan Xiong Fei.

-Bai Zi
-Zi Su, why are you here?

Bai Zi! I've finally found you.

Zi Su, why did you come here alone?

I just have a mission that the emperor sent me to do. You need to return to the palace right now.

I don't want to.

I only realized after coming out,

that the outside world is a million times more fun than the palace.

I don't want to go back.

I'll go wherever you go.

Brother Yuan Shuai, do you still remember what the princess said?

Of course I do. The person that finds Bai Ze will have a thousand dollars.

Okay, I know.

Move. Go.

Move.

Move.

Stop.

Big brother, big brother.

What is up?

Big Brother, one of our messengers

Saying that the convoy of Princess Gu Li has checked in the town's Man Hotel.

Okay.

The items we've gotten this time are just cheap ones.

Do you guys want to do another looting?

- Do you want to? Do you want to?
- We want to!

Really?!

Big brother, is it a big risk to do it at the town?

That's why we cannot publicly steal. We have to use our brains.

Isn't that Zhan Xiong Fei guy living in that Man Hotel?

Right. He's at the Man Hotel.

Last time, I asked you guys to ask him for payment and you let him escaped. Go there again.

If he knows what's good for him and helped us find treasures, then everything can be discussed.

All his previous debts will be forgotten.

If he doesn't follow...

- Isn't it?
- Right. Right. Nan Jia,

Jia Nan, tonight, let us put on disguises.

Okay? Let's change to costumes and go to Man Hotel tonight.

Let's go check it out!

Right! Right! Brother is so smart!

Shh. Shhh.

Did Zhan Xiong Fei know that we were coming so he's hiding?

Big Brother, logically, he shouldn't have known.

But why can't we find Zhan Xiong Fei?

Stay nimble. Search.

Bai Ze.

Bai Ze, when we finish our mission, you must give us more money.

You should know that operating an inn requires a lot of money.

Don't worry. As long as we can find the magic star, just leave all the matters about the inn to me.

Don't move! Don't move.

Behave!

Eh?

Hey, hey. You don't remember me anymore?

Mis..mister Ma?

Brother Dao?

Why are you dressed like that?

You don't need to worry about that.

Um Brother Dao...no, Mister Ma, we will definitely repay our money.

We almost have enough.

That money is too little. Why would I come here for such a small thing?

Then...then Brother Dao, why are you here?

Hey, if you do one thing for me, you will not have to repay your loan.

I might even give you more money after that.

Huh?

Mhm?

Oh!

Child, you are the one who ruined my day.

Aren't the path too narrow between two enemies (will surely meet)?

Long time no see.

I'll take care of you first before dealing with him.

I'll finish him first before dealing with you.

- Go and take them all away.
- Hey... Hey...

- No. No. Brother Ma...
- Careful.

- Careful. Be careful of the blade.
- Hurry and move!

- I'll walk. I'll walk.
- The blade...

Brother Bai Ze.

Zhan Xiong Fei?

Yuan Shuai?

Don't worry. We don't plan to escape.

Mister Ma, Mister Ma. That is something that we really can't do.

If someone finds out, we will be executed.

Don't you want your life already now?

No, no, no. We really can't repay our debt.

We really...We live in such a poor place.

Look at you. It's fine if you don't do it. Pay back the money?

Interest on interest. I'll multiply your payment by ten!

How about this. Yuan Shuai and I can work for you.

We don't have a penny right now. We can't repay the debt.

- This blade...
- Search them.

Really. Don't touch me. Let me tell you.

- Star Chart. Star Chart.
- I really don't have anything on me.

There's really nothing even if you keep touching me.

Big Brother, there's something.

Hey, you can't touch that!

What is this?

Huh?

- This is just a chart. Actually...
- Not much use.

Exactly, exactly.

Child,

are you trying to trick me?

Mister Ma, you have to trust us. We are honest people and we never trick people.

Brother Bai Ze.

- Zi Su!
- Hey, don't move! Don't move!

What are you doing?

She is a princess! You better not do anything crazy.

Ma Da Dou, if I was you, I wouldn't lay a finger on her.

If you touch her, even ten of your lives would not be enough for the imperial army.

Liar. Don't you use your brain? The one we're stealing from is a princess and there's another princess again that has appeared?

Is there something going on with this measly town of ours?

Who are you people?

Let Bai Ze and everyone go.

I'll let you guys live.

You really are so into your acting. You really treat yourself as some princess?

If you tell me what that is, I'll let them go.

That isn't really some important thing. Not much use. It...is to level a study table.

- Just a stone plate.
- Right. Right. Right. Not much use.

It's useless.

Children, are you trying to trick me?

Why are there so many people?

What are you guys doing with the swords?

Uh...us...

General,

we are acting!

Wow, so cool!

You too!

And you.

Zi Su.

Take this!

General, it's not bad, right?

Then what is Zi Su princess doing?

I thought that it looked quite fun so I'm here to learn.

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes.

I also wanted to ask

how is Princess Gu Li?

You are that person from the desert.

Gu Li princess is just fine.

Right,

I am here to tell you guys that

Gu Li princess has decided

that she wants to personally demonstrate the Phoenix Nirvana.

So you must make sure that nothing bad will happen.

What?

Princess Gu Li wants to do it personally?

Exactly.

Once you both check the stage equipment,

I will send soldiers to same guard it.

And this place,

I will also send them here

until the end of the performance. If anyone dares to leave,

kill them regardless.

Yes.

Watch over them closely.

Yes.

Zhan Xiong Fei,

what are you going to do?

What else can we do?

Now you don't need to worry about us running away. We can't even report you.

Grasping each other's shortcomings, isn't it quite good too?

What are you looking at? Go do your work little Ma.

Work?

Hey,

How to play this?

Brother Dao, this is an inherited skill.

I usually don't teach others.

Actually, the main part is to create a sure-death situation upstairs

and then there will be one redeeming path.

and it's at this place.

Let me show you.

Brother Dao, come up.

Looks like we won't be leaving for a while.

I remember that person before said to kill anyone who disobeys.

After the magic show, Ja Bu Ha would probably let us go.

By the way, Master Ma, the magic trick this time is extremely difficult

and dangerous.

If you miscalculated the timing, someone will lose his life.

Thus, you must not make any mistakes.

Just tell me what to do.

I definitely is a person who is loyal to his comrades.

I will cancel your debt.

Okay, but...

you still need to return my stuff.

That's right, Brother Dao.

You were the ones who said that his is just for decoration.

Don't be that petty.

Just give them to me as mementos.

Master Ma. Sometimes,

I really want to make you explode with one hammer swing.

Start working.

Get to work now.

Go back.

General Ja Bu Ha has ordered that if anyone dares to leave,

we will kill him. Go back.

Let's see you be happy, Let's see you be arrogant.

There won't be any problems, right, Brother Nan?

No problem. During the magic show,

the princess will be locked up here

and there will be a big fire.

The only way out will be this path.

You must check and maintain the trap door properly.

Don't worry. The princess will definitely come down from there safely.

Frankly, I'm very worried.

There are many soldiers out there. How are we going to escape?

Hey, there will eventually be a time that a person will take a nap. When their defense relaxes later, let's just escape.

That's right. During the magic show, there will be lots of movements.

There will definitely be an opportunity.

By the way, Zi Su, Brother Fei wants me to tell you that

when you are standing next to Bai Ze,

once you have the chance, you must escape immediately.

It's almost done. I'm going to find Brother Fei and work with him.

- Zi Su, let's go together.

- We are leaving.
- Let's go.

If we were to seal this, the princess will be cooked.

Sister A Ji Ya, it has been a long time since we sat at the same table for our meals. Here.

Princess, this is against the rules.

What's wrong with this?

You only need to remember that

you are my younger sister today. Come.

Now, you're going to marry in place of me. From then on, it will be hard

for us sisters to gather.

Come, have another cup.

Today, we are sisters and not a princess and her slave.

Sister, let me give you a toast today.

Sister. I remember you loved to dance when you were young.

It has been a long time since you have danced for me.

Come.

Come.

Help A Ji Ya change into the princess' clothes

and take her to the temple festivity.

Yes.

We don't have much time.

Let's go now.

Everything has been planned.

Once those idiots start their magic show

when A Ji Ya has turned into ashes,

we will make use of the ruckus to escape from here.

From then on,

there won't be any Princess Gu Li in this world.

There will only be us.

Wandering the ends of the world.

Be a couple that everyone will be envious of.

Great! Great! Great!

The dance is really great!

Excellent!

Excellent!

Tada!

Dear everyone, this most exciting program is going to start soon. Let's applause and welcome

the Great Magician, Zhan Xiong Fei!

Whoa!

He's really great!

Great!

Awesome!

Excellent!

Everyone, don't be too happy first

because this is just a small act.

Let us welcome the lead actress for tonight!

Princess Gu Li!

Great!

Great!

Follow me afterwards. Don't wander anywhere.

Dear everyone, this is not an ordinary lock.

This was made from the legendary thousand year old cold iron.

A normal person wouldn't be able to unlock this.

That's right.

My fellow villagers, the Phoenix Nirvana will now officially start!

So how? What's the situation?

Not yet.

Once the performance starts, she will come down.

So disrespectful.

Men, seal it now.

Yes.

If you seal this, she will be cooked by the fire.

Lock the door.

- Everyone, let's leave!
- Yes.

Wow!

Great!

Wow!

Really awesome.

It's a great show.

Notify everyone to leave Yanjiao town.

Yes!

So how?

Everything went according to plan. We can leave in peace.

Let's set off!

- Once the princess gets to safety, let's immediately put out the fire.
- Okay.

- Is everything ready?
- There won't be any problems.

Great!

It's really awesome.

Help!

What's going on?

Ma Da Dao, open the trap door!

Open the door!

Go to the back of the stage!

Ma Da Dao, open the door!

Open the door!

What's going on?

The secret trap door is in there but this door suddenly can't be opened.

- Where's Ma Da Dao?
- I'm guessing that something must have gone wrong.

Bai Ze, take Zi Su away from here now. We will think of a solution.

Be careful. I will come back later.

- Hurry up!
- Yuan Shuai, move aside!

Why are they all lying on the ground?

Ma Da Dao!

Yuan Shuai, save the princess first!

Jia Nan! Hurry and get up! Hurry!

Zi Su, wait here for me. I'm going to help them. Don't wander anymore.

- Did you hear me?
- Brother Bai Ze...

Brother Bai Ze, be careful!

Brother Dao, get up now!

Princess, let Yuan Shuai take you out. We don't have time!

Be careful!

Princess, don't be afraid.

Are you better? Do you know who I am?

Princess.

Princess!

Princess, are you okay?

Let me borrow the horse.

Why are you taking my horse?

Hey! My horse!

I'm furious!

Don't go!

I'm going out to take a look. Be careful.

You weren't burnt to death by the fire.

If you don't want to be injured, sit tight.

Attack me instead. The idea to burn you was from me.

You are even going to risk your life because of him?

Gu Li...

Fine, just leave. Take it that you both were burned to death in the fire.

Aren't you leaving now?!

It smells great.

Of course.

So how? Our Shuai Shuai is great, right?

He was determined to be the world's no. 1 Supernatural Chef.

Thirteenth Sister, you are so hateful.

Why are you telling her this? I'm embarrassed.

I didn't expect that you would have such great culinary art skills.

Let me try it.

I cooked this for A Ji Ya.

If you want to eat this, I will cook another bowl for you.

Kids who grew up in a small town doesn't know anything.

Princess Zi Su, don't mind him.

What would you like to eat? I will cook for you.

I... I don't want to eat anymore!
