Ultimate Note

Episode 1

Recording

The address on the note has led me here.

Recording

This flight of stairs

should lead me to the room.

I'm Wu Xie.

I live in Hangzhou,

in Wushanju, next to Xiling
Seal Art Society at Hefang Street.

I...

I'm currently at Golmud Sanatorium.

If you see me...

My name is Wu Xie,

commonly known as Master Xiao San.

These two are my good buddies.

The greedy and talkative Fatty Wang,

and the quiet and excitable

Zhang Qi Ling.

With my grandpa's notebook

and my two friends, I embark
on all kinds of adventure.

We've visited the Seven Star Palace
of the Emperor of Lu

where we were chased by
Shibie insects,

bewitched by the Green-Eyed Fox,

and caught by countless traps.

We nearly died.

But we pulled through thanks to
Zhang Qi Ling's help.

I thought

my life would be back to normal.

Green-Eyed Fox

Tai Ling Sacred Tree

Eight-Layered Treasure Box

But sometimes you're just in too deep

Cloud Top Palace

Tai Ling Sacred Tree

Nine Dragon Casket

and can't get out.

Shipwreck Tomb

My search for my deadbeat third uncle

took me beneath the waters of
the Paracel Islands.

It led me down a rabbit hole

involving immortality and the Ultimate.

There,

I was shocked to discover

a message left behind by Xie Lian Huan,

"Wu San Xing is trying to get me."

Wu San Xing is trying to get me.

Then the clues from the three fishes

led me to Mount Changbai

and the Cloud Top Palace

buried under the pure white show.

With Wang Zang Hai's help, we located
the Nine Dragon Casket,

saw the 12-armed King of Slaves,

and the mighty Birdman.

Finally,

we found the Bronze Gate.

That was Zhang Qi Ling's destination.

There he was required
to guard some secrets.

As I watched him
enter the Bronze Gate,

I wondered what laid ahead.

Zhang Qi Ling!

Surgical Rehabilitation Center

Where's your third uncle?

Fatty Wang

Wu Xie

You wily old fox.

Leaving behind so much trouble.

Don't you run away!

Wu San Xing!

You wily old fox.

Stop right there!

Wu San Xing

You wily old fox.

How long have you been awakened?

Only just.

Archaeological Team,
Paracel Islands, 1985

Looks familiar?

This was taken by your
archaeological team 19 years ago

before travelling to
the Paracel Islands.

Xie Lian Huan died
during that expedition.

We saw a message written in blood

at the Paracel Islands.

It said on the boulder,

Wu San Xing is trying to get me.

"Wu San Xing is trying to get me."

Do you know who wrote that?

It was Xie Lian Huan!

Tell me whether you did it or not.

I'm feeling dizzy.

It hurts!

What hit my head?

Wu Xie's package.

Who sent it?

Zhang

Qi

Ling.

Zhang Qi Ling?

Zhang Qi Ling, Express Delivery

Isn't he amazing?

He could actually send something
to you from the Bronze Gate.

A videotape?

My nephew.

You're not being honest here.

Why wasn't I told

you've been in touch with Zhang Qi Ling?

How could I tell you?

Didn't you just wake up?

I'm feeling dizzy again.

It's getting worse now.

Stupid Zhang.

This is the first time

we've heard from him
after so long.

Isn't he stingy?

He could have sent us
some local specialities

instead of this stupid videotape.

It's a piece of antique.

And where are we going
to find a video recorder?

I'll take care of it.

Forget it.

It has nothing to do with you.

Can't we share the information?

We're family after all.

You'll find out about Zhang Qi Ling

while I do my own investigation.

Wang Wu.

Go to the flea market

and get a couple of video recorders
so we can play them.

Yes, Master San.

You want to watch it?

Sure.

But you need to tell me
what happened at the Paracel Islands.

Do you really think

I'm a person who would kill for anything?

Cut the nonsense.

Now you're the suspicious one.

The Paracel Islands.

Much had happened then.

One thing I don't understand.

It's been years.

And I've been tracking down
the archaeological team.

Wen Jin.

Huo Ling.

They were so young.

And they are still missing.

Too much had happened. Just forget it.

Why?

Why do you do this every time?

I'm doing this

-for your own good.
-It's for my own good.

You say that every time.

I'm your uncle.

It's only natural

that I care for you.

This was sent from Golmud, Qinghai.

The Bronze Gate is at Mount Changbai.

But Golmud is in the western region.

This trick of his

was certainly amazing.

Seriously, what's Zhang doing

way out there?

We'll scour every inch of Qinghai

to find him.

You'd better come clean.

Didn't I come clean?

That's enough.

Let's watch the videotape.

In-patient

We've spent 20 minutes watching it.

Still nothing yet.

No.

Don't miss any clues.

Listen.

If the whole thing is blank,

I'm going to lose it.

What are you doing now?

There could be words hidden
in the static.

A password maybe.

Or a secret code.

It's possible.

It's her.

It's Huo Ling.

This is Huo Ling from the
archaeological team 19 years ago?

Something was wrong

with her.

Give me the old picture.

Archaeological Team,
Paracel Islands, 1985

We were there in 1985.

It's 1997 in the videotape.

12 years have passed.

She hasn't grown older one bit.

Let us analyse this.

Zhang Qi Ling

sent us two videotapes.

One is blank.

The other one

has Huo Ling combing her hair.

Wu Xie.

Stop the investigation now.

Treat this videotape as a hoax.

Stop watching it.

I've started my investigation.

And now you want me to stop.

Do you want to be the one
missing next?

I'm stopping you

-for your own good.
-For my own good.

Granny once set up a blind date for you

for "your own good."

But did you listen?

This is different.

Think about it.

The videotapes were sent to you

to bait you.

Aren't you playing into his hands

-if you investigate further?
-Could Zhang Qi Ling be ill-intentioned?

If I stop investigating I won't know
how much you're hiding from me.

-Did I keep any secrets from you?
-Hold on.

I have a videotape with me.

It has something to do with you.

If you're interested,

come to Hangzhou.

Cox Hendry 02200059

Didn't I tell you I have no money?

Don't call me again.

I'm ending the call.

-Who was that?
-A property agent.

He's been bugging me.

Property agent?

You're not getting younger.

It's time to get a bigger house.

Then you can start dating.

I just want to be like you.

A bachelor.

My dear nephew.

You should be grateful you're still alive

after all that poking around.

It's all thanks

to your friends who protected you.

I'm getting discharged tomorrow.

You should go back to Hangzhou

and stay put in Wushanju.

-Where are you going?
-The washroom.

Why are you taking them?

Zhang Qi Ling sent me these.

I'm the recipient.

Fine. If that's how you want to play,

I'll buy them from you.

There's a price for everything.

-Sure.
-How are you going to pay?

-Name your price.
-I want your

Double-Headed Tiger Jar.

Done.

The Dragon-Phoenix Guard.

-It's yours.
-And a pair

of Golden Dragon Cups.

Only one of those exist.

Trust me,

a pair exists.

You're truly my nephew.

You can have them.

It's a deal then.

Not only is my head hurt,

my whole body, too.

My heart is painful.

Truly painful.

Fatty.

We got the money now.

I'll buy you a meal
back in Hangzhou.

Let's go.

Wushanju

You liar.

You bought me instant noodles instead.

This is Wushanju's speciality.

Enjoy your meal.

We have an appointment.

With whom?

Ah Ning.

She also has some videotapes.

So I...

You had a phone
conversation with her yesterday.

You found a new target,

so you agreed to drop that investigation.

You know my uncle.

If I try to reason with him,

he won't listen to me.

And forget about outsmarting him.

We'll try to find some clues

from Ah Ning's videotapes.

I think Ah Ning...

She's alright.

Just too much of a mercenary.

As the saying goes,

"Don't mess with someone
who wears leather pants."

Wushanju

Wushanju

Zhang Qi Ling

You want to investigate,

yet you gave the tapes
to your uncle.

Not bad, kid.

A bait and switch.

No matter how wily the fox is,
it could never beat a good hunter.

I knew it.

A persistent guy like you

would never quit an investigation.

Ah Ning

Individually, the copper coins

are inexpensive.

But if you collect seven of them,

they're worth a fortune.

You're not wearing
your leather pants today.

Want some instant noodles?

My treat.

This was sent to my head office.

Who's the sender?

Check for yourself.

Golmud, Qinghai

You're the sender!

Impossible.

Golmud, Qinghai.

I've never been there before.

I know you're not the sender.

The sender used your name

to ensure I'd get this.

Golmud, Qinghai

There will be extra charge for this job.

I'll double it.

Tell us more.

What's inside the videotape?

It's quite weird.

See for yourselves.

Feel anything special?

No.

Fine.

Let's watch the second one.

Brace yourselves.

This part.

It's me.

How could it be me?

That's why I contacted you.

This video is over ten years old.

I was young then.

Are there any other clues besides this?

The only clue is Wu Xie's face.

It seems you have
no knowledge of this.

Jolly Good Time Blind Massage,
Qi Da Nei

We can negotiate on the price.

Money is nothing to me.

But enough about money.

I'll arrive in Beijing tonight.

Bye.

You're leaving just like that?

I just had a scare.

You're timid.

Just treat it as a horror movie.

Besides,

you have Wang Meng.

Wang Meng.

Take good care of your boss.

Sure.

One more thing.

Zhang Qi Ling has sent a videotape...

There are two.

Including the blank one.

Like Ah Ning said,

the sender used
Zhang Qi Ling's name

to ensure I'd get them.

Maybe Zhang Qi Ling

didn't send them after all.

Yes.

I know.

You're trying to find out

what the videotapes are all about.

And also,

inform me if you have news

of Zhang Qi Ling.

-Sure.
-So long.

He even sent a blank videotape.

Zhang Qi Ling sure is a weirdo.

Wang Meng.

Give me the screwdriver.

It's in the drawer next to you, boss.

Get it yourself.

No salary for you this month.

Alright, I'll go get it for you.

This is the blank one.

In other words,

the content is not the purpose.

The sender wanted me

to have the videotape itself.

There's only a reason

for sending this.

Something only the receiver

would know.

No. 5, 349 De'er Lane 3, Kunlun Street

No. 5, 349 De'er Lane 3, Kunlun Street,

Golmud City, Qinghai.

The sender is exceptionally smart.

The item within

is protected during transit

by using a videotape.

Furthermore,
even if it's seized by someone,

for instance, my third uncle,

the person will only be

interested in the content

and not aware of the item within.

There's a key.

306

306.

He even prepared a room for you.

The wily old fox

finally realised the tapes' been swapped.

Another thing.

Book me the earliest flight to Golmud.

-Okay.
-Get to it.

Sure.

I hear it's pretty good.

Let's check it out.

Okay.

Jolly Good Time Blind Massage

It hurts!

Uncle Lei, judging by the feel
of your bones,

you must be in your 70s?

Nonsense.

Even though my hair is white,

I'm only 37.

Only 37?

Stop!

Jolly Good Time Blind Massage

Stop it!

Are you done?

I'm done. It's too painful.

Looks healthy but weak.

Jolly Good Time Blind Massage

He's full of illnesses.

Sir.

Want a massage?

Cox Hendry

Golmud, Qinghai.

A foreigner with a lama.

Are you going?

Come to my massage parlour
when you're free.

We provide special services.

He's silent indeed.

Boss.

You'll stop over in Chengdu
on your flight to Golmud.

I've booked you

the economy class at 6:00 a.m.

It'll be a connecting flight.

The stopover is at 1:00 p.m.

There will be plenty of time

before your next flight at midnight.

You'll have 11 hours of
free time at the airport.

Finally, you'll take a bus
from Xining to Golmud.

I've checked.

There's beautiful scenery along the way.

You'll arrive in Golmud at 9:00 p.m.

You'll be 3 km away from the
sanatorium after getting off the bus.

So this is the
fastest route you could arrange?

Yes, boss.

You want me to walk the whole 3 km?

There should be auto rickshaws.

So just take that.

Hey man.

We've reached.

Golmud Sanatorium

So this is

the place?

Show yourself!

Recording

I'm Wu Xie.

I live in Hangzhou,

in Wushanju, next to Xiling Seal Art
Society at Hefang Street.

I'm currently at Golmud Sanatorium.

If you see...

Who's there?

If you find this video camera,

please pass it over to a person named
Wang Meng at Wushanju.

Thank you.

The address on the note

has led me here.

This flight of stairs

should lead me to the room.

Recording

There appears to be

some structural issues.

The corridor on the second floor
is blocked by a cement wall.

There are marks on the wall

seemingly made by fingernails.

But the pattern is weird.

I don't know what it means.

This musty smell doesn't seem right.

I must be deep below

the ground now.

It's getting colder.

There's a strange fragrance.

The air seems fine.

The torch light's out,

and the lighter, too?

The emergency lighting of
this abandoned sanatorium

can still be used after all.

This is at least five or
six hundred years old.

It has been moved.

Fatty has once said,

"always pray,"

"even if you don't mean it."

Whoever is inside,

I'm paying you my respects.

I have a habit of waking up corpses.

So I'll leave you alone,

and you'll leave me alone.

Sleep tight, okay?

It's strange.

There's another room.

Since I'm here,

I might as well risk it.

If I were to send someone

a videotape from the 90s

to lure him here

into this cellar,

I'd either

want him to find me,

or

find something I've left behind.

If he wanted me to find it,
why lock it?

Bravo!

Xie Yu Chen

Did your granny teach you

how to sleep on a rope?

I can't do that yet.

I can't fall asleep.

Heavenly Music

Did you have a good sleep?

I haven't lost my touch, have I?

I didn't hear

or see any flaws.

I'm not sure

which of the three you are.

No matter who you are,

since you came here

and found this notebook,

you must be already involved.

The notebook has all the records

of our hard work and experience
over the past ten years.

But be warned,

this notebook contains

great secrets.

It has all the answers

It has all the answers

you seek.

you seek.

But once you read it,

But once you read it,

anything can happen.

anything can happen.

The videotapes were our

final insurance.

Once the tapes are sent,

it means the owner is longer able

to reach me.

Either

I'm dead,

or

"it" has found me,

and I'm no longer in the city.

What does it mean by "it?"

The videotape was sent to three people.

Me.

Ah Ning.

And who else?

Master San.

All the ancestors of the
Mystic Nine were involved.

Everyone died tragically.

The elders of the Xie family.

Master Wu Lao Gou.

My master, Er Yue Hong.

And the man called

"Master Buddha."

What have you elders been doing?

I...

I'm not old.

You have to ask Huo Xiu Xiu's granny
about the older generation's affairs.

My granny?

You can forget it.

We can't even mention the
disappearance of my aunt, Huo Ling,

in front of her.

Chen Wen Jin

Chen Wen Jin.

When your archaeological team
went to the Paracel Islands,

my aunt, Chen Wen Jin, and Xie Lian Huan

all went missing.

You're the only one who made it back.

You must know something.

My generation has done
everything necessary

to tie up the loose ends.

We hope the younger generation

will stay out of it.

You're the only one left.

Look at this pattern.

Tell me what it is.

So Chen Wen Jin

asked someone to send me videotapes

in Zhang Qi Ling's name.

Not just me, but two other people, too.

Mount Changbai,

Cloud Top Palace,

Gua Zi Temple, Seven Star Palace,

Reclining Buddha Ridge,

Tian Guan Stupa,

Shatou Reef,

Shipwreck Tomb.

I've been to all these places.

Mount Changbai, Cloud Top Palace,
Gua Zi Temple,

Reclining Buddha Ridge,
Tian Guan Stupa

I get it now.

This is the dragon vein where

Emperor Mu of Zhou pursued immortality.

These lines connect to form a dragon.

I get that people were
superstitious back then.

But do people still believe in
such things nowadays?

Tamutuo.

Why is this the only spot

that's outside the Dragon's Gate?

The Bronze Gate.

Chen Wen Jin has been to the Bronze Gate.
