=Episode 14=

Why do I feel like

these statues are staring at us?

It's creepy.

Chief Yang,

take a look.

What are their eyes made of?

Extremely rare gemstones.

Gemstones?

Don't get any bad ideas.

Even in his death,

he has to put himself in the highest place within his palace.

His desire for power and immortality has gone so far

to the extent that it has become a perverse obsession.

Fatty.

What is wrong with you?

Haven't you learned your lesson?

Have you forgotten what happened to your tongue last time?

No, I'm not going to touch it.

I mean, we're doing

proper archaeological work, right?

I'm just admiring it.

Get down from there.

Chief Yang.

Come over here.

I have a question.

Who exactly are these statues meant to represent?

To use gemstones for its eyes? That's so extravagant.

These statues appear stern and fierce.

The way as if they are staring down at everyone who passes by

causes others a sense of fear.

I think

these statues were meant to guard King Xian's tomb,

the Scowling Deities.

Deities?

What a pity.

Fatty.

Get over here.

Hu, what's with that pose?

Hu?

Hu?

What's going on?

Hu?

Hu?

What happened?

Hu!

What's the matter?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Why did you fall asleep standing up?

Are you tired?

You...

You even got a nightmare.

It's fine.

Take a moment.

Get a bit of rest.

Chief Yang, watch over him for a bit.

Rest for a bit.

I'll check out the area at the back.

Hu,

did you overexert yourself?

I don't know.

I felt

a hand choking me.

I almost died.

If you guys hadn't woken me up,

I might just have died.

No.

Something is wrong with this wall.

Careful now.

It's a pity not to take any of these with me.

Maybe I could still take one of them?

But wouldn't that make it a one-eyed dragon?

No. That won't do.

Should I take both of them and donate them to the museum?

What would I have to gain then?

Fine.

A man must keep

his words.

I'll leave them be.

Hu.

I'm telling you,

I've made a huge sacrifice this time.

You ought to praise me for this...

Hu?

Chief Yang?

You didn't fall asleep together, did you?

Hu?

What happened this time?

Chief Yang? Guys?

What are you staring at?

Oh, no.

Something is wrong with this statue.

Hu! Chief Yang!

Are you all right?

Something is wrong with that statue.

When I stare at its eyes,

I felt like I was controlled.

I felt the same.

Do you think

these reliefs

were made of something abnormal?

When one stares at it long enough,

they will get hypnotized and hallucinate.

That's right.

I only looked at it for a moment earlier

and my head just went dizzy.

How can there be such powerful hypnosis?

I'm just speculating.

I haven't done much research

on hypnosis, either.

Then...

I destroyed it earlier.

We should be fine now, right?

You broke it?

I think there's a corpse inside.

It is a corpse.

But why would anyone put a corpse inside a wall?

Oh, darn!

Why are there moths here?

These should be the corpse moths that were feeding on the body.

The powder on their bodies is poisonous. You can't let any of it get on you.

That looks like a hole that leads somewhere.

It looks like that corpse

was used to block the hole.

Oh, darn it!

Again?

Quick, get inside!

All right. Come on!

Chief Yang! Quick, get inside!

All right.

Careful.

Fatty, hurry up and get inside!

You guys go first!

Hurry up!

There's a torch.

Light it up.

There's a bridge.

What's on the other side?

The outsiders

must have crossed the bridge.

Let's go.

Slowly now.

Zha Long. Zha Long!

I can't see.

Fatty, give me a hand!

All right!

Use the coffin to block the hole!

All right!

Hu, it's too heavy.

Use the coffin lid!

Hurry!

All right.

Let's go.

Hurry!

One, two, go!

Oh, darn!

Look.

The markings on these corpse moths

look like a human face.

That's way too creepy.

I told you just now, didn't I?

These are corpse moths that have been living inside the body.

They're different from ordinary moths.

If you accidentally let them bite you,

you might be gone for good.

No amount of wind medicated oil would save you then.

Something must have been done

to that woman when she was still alive

for her to have so many corpse moths inside her body.

What is this place?

The highest floor.

Could this be

King Xian's underground palace?

But I don't see anything else

besides these jars inside this coffin.

According to customs,

this phoenix coffin contains King Xian's wife.

Then, her body...

The one out there?

Oh, goodness.

King Xian is way too evil.

Why can't he

just put his wife's body inside a coffin?

Why use her body to block a hole?

Her corpse was placed in a strange position.

Is there a reasoning for that, according to feng shui?

I'm not sure.

But based on the shadow bone's location,

King Xian's coffin

should be inside this crypt.

King Xian

feels quite good about himself, doesn't he?

He sure depicted himself well in this picture.

The strokes are nice.

Hu.

Fatty.

Look at this.

The eye symbol.

Hu.

Hu?

He didn't get hypnotized again, did he?

Hu?

This painting feels familiar to me.

I feel like I've seen it before.

Well, don't bother trying too hard if you can't remember.

This painting

does prove something, though.

Legend has it

that the Fowl-dust Orb was retrieved from the Bottomless Ghost Pit.

That means

it's possible that special types of jade

may form in special environments.

So it seems that King Xian

could see visions through the orb.

Hu,

I think you're right.

This should be King Xian's crypt.

But this is such a small space.

Wherever could

King Xian's body be?

Could there be another

secret room in here?

A naturally formed cave like this

is also known as a cave room cavern according to tomb customs.

According to the feng shui for burials and the structure of the ley lines,

there can't be any other secret rooms here.

But King Xian's coffin

isn't here.

That doesn't make sense.

It's strange indeed.

Hu.

Look at that mural.

Hu!

This coffin is so strange.

Which deity's underground tomb is this?

Why are there so many coffins here?

Zha Long.

You're so smart.

Otherwise,

we would've never known there could be such a huge tomb down here.

There must be a lot of treasures here.

What are you talking about?

Who are you calling Zha Long?

This is our future patriarch.

Right.

Patriarch.

What's underneath here?

Let's find those three outsiders first.

- All right. - All right.

The person who built this tomb must be rich.

They could get their hands

on any kind of lamp they wanted.

Strange.

Where did those outsiders go?

This looks like something valuable.

Treasure? Where?

What is this?

Move.

Look at you.

There must be something better inside the coffins.

What was that sound?

Open it up.

Patriarch.

I'll do it.

Push.

Put more force into it.

He... he is dead.

There was a mechanism on the bronze mirror.

When you removed it,

it activated the mechanism.

Where is all of this

yellow liquid coming from?

Is that mucus?

It looks like

a melted ice cream popsicle.

Do you guys think

it's getting hotter in here?

The floor is deformed!

Hu! Watch out!

The floor is melting.

And the walls are melting too.

Hu,

does that mural have a hypnotizing effect too?

Are we hallucinating right now?

Like hell we are!

Watch out!

Chief Yang,

do you remember the ten everlasting candles

in the middle crypt?

I couldn't figure it out.

I kept wondering

which corpse that bull's head candle

corresponded to.

We don't even know which of the other corpses

the others corresponded to!

And you're still wondering about the largest candle at a time like this?

Of the ten everlasting candles,

the six siren lamps

correspond to King Xian, his wife,

the three corpses that represented his three lives, and that shadow bone.

Then what about the three reception children?

The three reception children...

The three reception children

are three corpses in the first place!

That bull's head lamp is the key.

I think

it might correspond

to a being

beyond our consciousness.

That's why

we were blinded

and couldn't find King Xian's corpse.

Now,

I've finally figured out

where the tenth corpse is.

Where?

It's right here!

We're in its body right now

to be precise.

What do you mean?

This isn't just a crypt.

It's a corpse too.

A corpse?

Look.

What the heck is this?

This explains it then.

This cave tomb

is the tenth corpse corresponding to the bull's head lamp.

And

it has now come back to life.

What? Come back to life?

What corpse?

I can't understand what you mean, Hu!

My guess

is that this is

a giant ten-thousand-year-old Wutou Lingzhi coffin.

We are at the center

of the feng shui clash right now.

King Xian

used his wife's body as the eyes of the Wutou.

So

we are inside

the flesh of this Wutou Lingzhi.

You mean

this tomb is made of Wutou Lingzhi?

And the Wutou Lingzhi is King Xian's coffin?

No, wait. Is the Wutou Lingzhi dead or alive?

The Wutou Lingzhi is known as "Feng" as well.

A feng shui clash

and an imbalance in turbidity will create such a thing.

The "Feng" usually has eyes.

With one eye, it is known as Taisui.

With the second, Qinghu.

Only when it has five senses

can it be known as Wutou.

It is extremely rare.

This thing came alive

when we came inside

and brought the air inside with us.

If this is King Xian's outer coffin,

then where is his coffin?

I think this thing died a long time ago...

Hu, look!

This hole!

Since this is the Wutou Lingzhi coffin,

then King Xian's coffin must be under here.

It looks like there's a corpse down there.

Is it King Xian's?

I got it.

This pit

is the Wutou Lingzhi coffin's

other eye socket.

It's also the best with the best feng shui inside King Xian's tomb.

King Xian sure went to great lengths.

To make sure that his body wouldn't rot away,

he placed himself underneath this thing.

The corpse is sinking!

What do we do?

Hu, look!

There are human bones in the walls!

Why would there be human bones in here?

King Xian

must have put buried the craftsmen who accompanied him in death in here

as fertilizer for the Wutou Lingzhi!

Hu, we have to be quick!

Otherwise, we'll be devoured!

Or stabbed to death by these bones!

Chief Yang, help!

Coming!

Fatty!

Get over here and help me!

Got it!

Hang in there, Chief Yang!

Got it!

What is it?

I have to get down there.

Get down there?

We risked our lives

to find King Xian's corpse.

I have to find the Fowl-dust Orb no matter if I die or live!

Grab my legs!

Okay!

Fatty, let me down.

All right. I'm letting you down.

Hu, hang on to my neck!

I know! Keep letting me down!

All right! Go!

Further!

Fatty, a little further down!

Hu, hurry up...

Fatty!

Further down!

I can't. This is the furthest I can go...

Hang in there, Chief Yang.

Hu, hurry up...

Fatty!

Further down!

I can almost reach it!

I really can't go any further...

Fatty!

Grab my legs!

Who told you to come down here?

I came to help you!

How is it, Hu?

Did you find it?

Let me down further, Chief Yang!

Fatty, let us down further!

I can't hold on anymore...

A little further down!
