Master, where did this blizzard come from?
Don't believe everything you see!
But I really feel cold!
Then you're already under her spell
I've lost without fighting?
The ice harpy!
Wait!
You're no match for her
Now you tell me!
You have come so far to find me
Are you not entranced by my charms?
Instead of meditating on your sins...
...you are still harming humans!
Blame those men, not me!
I was so good to each one of them
But their roving eyes strayed away from me
So they deserved it!
You're an enchantress, they were humans
You were never meant to be together
Today I'll bring it to an end
Monk, you think you can escape from my spell?
Then come and get me!
Master, have you killed her?
I've trapped her
Confine her in the Lei Feng Pagoda
Me again?
It's me!
"Jin Shan Temple"
"Lei Feng Pagoda"
Trying to scare me?
Master wouldn't have trapped you if you were really scary
We're giving you another chance
A chance to reflect and improve
if you make real progress in meditation...
...you'll be released
You, too! Study to improve yourself!
Hey! Hurry up back there!
Coming!
Xu Xian...
I shouldn't have climbed up here to pick herbs with you
Be a bit more patient
Look! Here's one!
Unlike Shennong, you know the value of herbs
Xu Xian, you even know which flowers to eat
Which flowers cure which ailments
Do you even know what flower that is?
That fool is eating flowers! They have thorns!
He's no fool
He's not picking the pretty wild roses with their thorns
Roses are pretty...
But not as pretty as me
You... you're more like a hornflower
Blowing your own horn from dawn to dusk
Hey, don't you even know...
Medicines cure some ailments
But others need liquor distilled from flowers!
That's absolutely right!
Let's keep going
- Alright - Climb further?
Look, they're still digging for herbs
They'll strip the whole mountain bare!
I'll give them a scare!
What? Qingqing...
Xu Xian? Xu Xian?
He's coming to
Xu Xian, are you alright?
Xu Xian!
Where's that girl?
What girl?
Maybe you banged your head too hard...
Just now, in the water, a girl kissed me
She breathed into my mouth
She saved me
Hey! The one giving you the kiss of life was me!
Why did you save him?
You even gave his vital energy a boost!
Hey, I'm talking to you! What are you staring at?
Nothing
Nothing? You're smitten!
Master, it looks like another bat-demon bite
Amitabha...
Today is the 15th...
The day of the Lantern Festival
We have to find these demons soon
Or many more people will die
Amitabha...
Ferryman, wait!
Here!
We need to cross the river, ferryman
I'm no ferryman, but jump in
I hope we're not delaying you
Not at all! To help others...
...is to spend time well
Thank you, kind sir
Sir...
What you just said was very interesting
How do you use your time when you're not helping others?
I'm aiming to become...
...a doctor of medicine
Good, good! Young men like us should have dreams!
I have one too
I dream of become the Abbot of Jinshan Temple
And where would that leave me?
Uh, Master... that's not...
I didn't mean now...
I mean, after...
After my death?
You want me to die?
No, I... I...
That's not what I meant, Master... I...
It seems you are Abbot Fahai of Jinshan Temple
It takes ten years of good deeds for two people to meet
it's destiny that let us to be acquainted
Young man, you're from Hangzhou?
Yes, my name's Xu Xian
I'm a herbalist
Master, what are you counting?
How long until I die
Xu Xian, the weather's nice today!
That it is
Don't change the subject
What was your dream again?
No...
The ultimate dream
I don't have any dream!
My only dream is my wish that you...
White, tell us what's bothering you
Turtle and I can help you resolve it
What... do... you...
I want to visit the human world
You just want to see that flower-eating fool!
I'd just like to take another look at him
Look at what? He's just a common mortal!
You've been moping over him for days!
What's this all about?
She used her vital essence to save a fool who was drowning
if... your... lips...
Let me say it
if their lips met...
...there was a flow of vital essences
He's in you and you're in him!
Nothing so serious, I just want to take a look at him
Don't give me a hard time
Qingqing, come with me!
Hey, where are you going?
I want to come! Take me too!
I will just stay here
See how much fun the mortal world is?
In a moment, get off the boat...
...and find him for me
I'll be strolling around here
When you find him, bring him to the pavilion on the lake
Why don't you find him yourself?
I want to play a little joke on him
And see how nice he is
Master, it's turning!
Then don't blow on it!
We'll split up to look around
Ah!
Watch out!
What is it?
A demon!
A demon? How do you know?
I'm an expert, of course I know
Are you going to exorcise it?
Shh, not so loud! it's nearby!
My Master and I have been tracking it for ages
Master says we must exorcise it today
Why do you have to do that?
Demons hurt people
What about demons which don't hurt people?
I don't know
Could you make friends with them?
Definitely not!
Why not?
Master only taught me how to exorcise them
Not how to make friends with them
then your Master has a problem
Or maybe his Master had a problem
Why don't I have a problem?
Because you absolutely don't have one
You're very nice
And very smart
I'd like to have a friend like you
I'm Qingqing
I'm Neng Ren
I'm busy, I have to go
Take care!
You are the gentleman my sister wants to see
Look again, do I look like a gentleman?
You have the wrong man
Can't be...
You're a herb-picker, aren't you?
Yes, but I'm not a gentleman
So I can't possibly be the one your sister wants to see
I recognize you, you're the man who eats flowers
then what's my name?
Who am I?
I don't know
But you are the one my sister wants to see
It's Lantern Festival night, go and enjoy it
And stop bothering me
Goodnight... young miss
What on earth?
Why's it moving?
Stop!
You're a real fool
Where do you think you're going?
Sorry! Sorry!
I didn't do that on purpose!
Sit down
Miss, it's late and you're here alone
This isn't proper
Don't treat me as a stranger
You don't need to be so polite
No, no, I should go
Who built this pavilion? it's so rickety
Well, I think it's very nice
And it's a perfect spot to see the West Lake
I'm afraid I'm not so interested
And I need to get home
This early?
There's moonlight on the lake, a pavilion in the moonlight...
And we're in the pavilion
Don't you think it's romantic?
I'm too busy for romance
What are you avoiding?
Why are you keeping such a distance from me?
Why don't you like me?
It's not that I don't like you, Miss
But someone else already has my heart
Miss, I'm a very poor man
I pick herbs for a living
I'm not worthy of your affections
then tell me about her
What kind of person is she?
I know almost nothing about her
I can't even recall her face
All I know is that she saved my life
That day I fell into a lake in the mountains
She rescued me
if she saved your life, you owe her a lot
But when I revived...
...she was gone
My friends said I'd imagined her
But I'm quite sure...
...she was real
Because she kissed me so deeply
That kiss saved my life
In a way, it also took my life
What if...
You could kiss her again?
Would you remember her this time?
Hello, my friend!
Oh, it's you... haven't gone home yet?
Done with your errands?
All done
It's dangerous here, you should go home
if it's so dangerous, you should leave too
I can't, I'm hunting demons
Know the saying?
"There's someone smarter than you know"
It applies to demons too
You're no match for this one
I advise you to give up
I can't, I'm sworn to obey my Master
We have to trap the bat-demon tonight
Well, if you want to kill yourself...
This is a very, very powerful demon
Not really...
Just a bat-demon which bit a girl
Ugh, she's all bloody!
How do you know?
I'm an expert too
I can't let it get away
Sorry we can't talk more, until next time!
No!
Watch out
Oh well, there goes another friend
Neng Ren of Jinshan Temple!
Demon hunter and enforcer of Buddha's law
No bluffing!
Master! Save me!
Master!
Look!
Master Fahai and Neng Ren are back
What's wrong with Brother Neng Ren?
The bat-demon poisoned him
Can he be cured?
If he's lucky...
What are you staring at?
You
No need to keep staring so long
I can't stop wondering...
...if this is really happening
What do you think?
That you're dreaming?
Someone once told me...
if I want to see someone, I should keep her in my heart
then I'll really see her again
Now I know it isn't superstition, it's true
You're saying you did want to see me again?
Xu Xian, let's go on like this
Always together, alright?
Eating together, sleeping together...
Doing everything together
Won't you get tired of me?
Won't you?
But I want to take you seriously
I want to meet your parents
And when I have their permission to court you...
then we'll have a formal match and get married?
Brother! Brother!
Wake up!
The sun rose hours ago!
Brother, wake up!
What?
That's scary, Brother!
Brother! You... Your ears have grown pointy!
And you got fangs! So scary!
Brother, are you turning into a demon?
Master! Master! Something very bad has happened!
Brother Neng Ren has run away
Come and see! Quickly!
This place isn't bad, we could live here
Change!
Hey, friend...
You want to hang yourself?
Hurry away, friend
Death by hanging is an ugly sight
You'll get nightmares
I know!
After death, your body turns purple
Your tongue hangs loose and your eyes fall out!
What?
If you don't believe me, give it a go!
You don't look like you really want to die
You don't understand
I'm a demon hunter...
But I'm turning into a demon!
Just think...
When I meet a demon I've hunted before...
...I'll seriously lose face
if you're a demon, just be a demon
When one demon meets another...
Mostly they just nod a greeting
And lots of them don't have limbs
Who'll care about your face?
I'll let you in on a secret
Actually, I'm a demon too
You... you...
What's wrong?
Aren't we two the same now?
All demons together! Don't look at me like that
Since we're so close now...
...I'll teach you how to be a demon
Come on!
I'm gelded!
Come on!
A gelding!
Come on!
I just had chive for breakfast. I am going to throw up!
Bats hang upside-down, get used to it!
My head will burst! it's full of blood!
That will make you smarter
I have a question for you...
Am I pretty?
Listen...
Right now, all I can see is stars
I'm seeing you upside-down
Pretty doesn't come into it
I see
And now, am I pretty?
Seeing you now... very pretty
So, do you get a special feeling when you look at me?
Would you like to bite my neck?
Taste my blood?
Amitabha...
I'm a sinner, I'm a sinner
Drink some water
What is this?
What do you think?
You bit my neck...
...ate meat and drank blood!
You violated the Three Taboos!
No more calling yourself a monk!
From now on, be the demon you are!
Liar!
We're there. Have we brought enough gifts?
Stop worrying! Come on in
I didn't expect your family to live in a mansion!
It's just a broken-down old house
You're here at last! You kept us waiting!
They're all here... this is my family
Go on in
- Go ahead - Thanks
We need to hurry
They can't keep these forms for long
I know
I want to play too!
You can't take human form! Scram!
Hello, everyone
I'll make the introductions
This is my father
Hello
Sir, my name is Xu Xian
He's...
He's absolutely amazing!
You're...
You're just perfect for each other!
The perfect couple!
Really...
Really nice to see!
How wonderful that you are here to propose!
Don't worry, he's fine
Auspicious day for an engagement, isn't it?
This is... my mother
She's so young!
Really?
Actually, my stepmother
I'll introduce you
Googie... Googie...
How come you have a girl's name?
You misheard, it's Gugu
He was a chubby kid, that was his nickname
And it stuck
Hello, Gugu
Let's sit down
It's this year's latest fashion!
This is called Doodle-do Wine
It'll make you hiccup! Doodle-do!
My parents like you to look at them when you speak
Uh...
Aren't you here today to propose?
Hurry, then, we can hardly wait
I am Xu Xian, poor and humble
I never dreamt I'd win anyone like your Susu
I've come here today...
...because I seek your exalted permission...
...to marry Susu
Sir...
Although I have nothing to my name...
...I love Susu very much
No need for a dowry, just take her home! Go on!
I also want to say to Susu...
Good heavens!
Fine, just get on with it!
I want to hear what Xu Xian has to say
Sister...
Speak
I don't know what stroke of good fortune...
...allows me to make you mine
All it took was one kiss
The wheels of fate turned...
...and brought me to a perfect moment...
...of tenderness and happiness
From now on every moment, every second I have...
...I will spend...
...beside you
To make you happy
Why did you do that?
They're reverting to their true forms
it's bad! it's bad!
Fahai is here to exorcise us! Run!
Run!
Get Xu Xian away from here while I distract him
Take care!
A tawdry illusion to dupe humans!
Send them all back to the demon realm!
Yes, Master!
Master!
Master, let her go!
You know what you're asking?
Come back with me
Master...
I can't go back any more
Master, take care!
We escaped?
I'm not dead?
Be calm, I'll always protect you
What are we doing here?
Weren't we getting engaged?
We did it
My parents gave us their blessing
Really?
That was easy
So now we're married
I'm your wife
We can be together for the rest of our lives
One day...
...I'll have my own pharmacy
then I'll have more money
I don't want you to suffer with me
How could that be?
As long as we're together...
...I'll never know suffering
What's love like in this human world?
What do you mean?
I'd just like to know what kind of couple we are
Tell me
Well, there are several kinds...
Some couples are like birds in the forest
Each can fly away if they want
Not that kind!
Another kind is...
...where the husband gets rich and dreams...
...of his wife's death
Xu Xian!
I'll kill you!
Watch out!
Don't chase me!
You'll make me drop the herbs!
I'll kill you!
I'll kill you! I'll kill you!
This disease cannot be cured
Master
They are victims of demons
At best, they'll go mad... at worst, they'll die
while they're alive, I must try to save them
Take precautions, don't go to strange places alone
Thank you, Master
Where did this disease come from?
So many people suddenly dying
You should take some rest
You've been making medicine for three days!
I can't
I have to find the cure
Susu, give me a hand
It mustn't stick...
...to the bottom of the pot
Preserving vital essence
concentrating vigor
boosting the spirit
Aside from these fundamentals...
...the medicine must strengthen basic functions
This is such a fierce disease
Can this medicine work?
I don't really know
Woman...
Disciples!
Foul demons! Crossing the three realms and five planes...
...you've harmed the people and spread chaos and evil!
By Buddha's mercy, if you choose to repent...
...you still have a chance to live
We'd rather die than listen to your nonsense!
Beware! The fox-demons are casting a charm!
On guard!
Yes, Master!
Maximum protection shield!
Heaven needs no hearing, ecstasy needs no sight
void my sense of self
What's that mantra?
Is it real or are you making it up?
Show your real forms!
By heaven's mercy
Master, we regret our sin
Please let us go. We beg you
Silence! You are demons!
Return to the six paths of transmigration!
Accept your punishment with humility!
Amitabha...
Sister, Sister
What's wrong? Are you alright?
It's nothing
That's impossible...
if you keep on like this...
...something will go very wrong
I know what I'm doing
All you care about is that Xu Xian
Adding your vital essence to that medicine...
...is costing you centuries of self-improvement
I don't want to see him work so hard
I want to help him
But you may not live to see him again!
It can't be that bad
Of course it is
I have to go
Wait!
Ah, Dr Xu is here
Dr Xu, thank you!
You're truly our savior
We owe you our lives
You and your wife are such good people
Don't rush
There's enough for everyone
Thank you
Master, you should take some too
It cures sickness and prevents infection
Thank you
Master...
Did you mix this medicine?
Yes
No-one helped you?
Yes, my wife did
You are the quintessence of benevolence
Take this spirit dagger as a token of thanks
I can't, Master, I'm just doing my duty
You shouldn't refuse a gift from a senior
Keep it to protect yourself
Thank you, Master
Amitabha...
You think you can run?
You made the cure for the fox-demon's poison
So what?
Making it has cost you centuries of your vital essence
You're kind to the ordinary people
But in your eyes, all we do is harm people
Despite good intentions, you will harm someone
Who will I harm?
You should know that
Xu Xian is my true love, how could I harm him?
You're from different realms! Being together...
...you drain his life-force and distort his destiny
Human lives are short, and true love is rare
He didn't choose to love you, you took his love
What does that matter? He's happy with me
Go chant your sutras!
You know nothing of love
if Xu Xian knew you are a snake...
...would he still love you?
I truly love him
if that's the case, shed your own tears
Don't make him shed tears over you
Since you're so benevolent...
...I'll let you go this time
if I see you again in this realm, there'II be no mercy
Susu, I'm home
So soon?
You're back...
Look!
What's special about today?
Well, everyone else...
...is celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival
while I am celebrating...
...the best day I've ever had!
The day my medicine cured everyone!
Really?
That's wonderful
The old villagers were so grateful
They gave us all this food
Susu, thank you for working so hard
Here, a toast to you
I'm hungry
Here, try this
it's good
You have some too
What's wrong?
What kind of wine is this?
They distilled it themselves
Sulphur-flower wine!
That's right
it's a festival tradition, it wards off snake-bites
Susu?
Susu? What's wrong? Susu!
Susu? Susu? What's the matter?
Are you alright?
I'm alright
Susu!
Why lock the door? Open it!
Susun.
Don't frighten me!
Susun.
What's the matter?
Susu!
Susu, what are you doing?
Open the door!
Susu, don't frighten me
Xu Xian...
Do you recall...
...what you said to me when you proposed?
I want to hear you say it again
I knew you were playing a trick on me!
I'd rather not repeat it
if you don't...
...I might never hear it again
Alright, alright
I'll say it
But then you must open the door!
Alright
"All it took was one kiss"
"I'm sure that the wheels of fate turned..."
"...and brought me to a perfect moment..."
"...of tenderness and happiness"
"From now on..."
"...every moment, every second I have..."
will spend beside you..."
"...to make you happy"
Susu! Susu!
Open the door, Susu!
I gave you a chance
You didn't leave, so now I must take you
Monk...
Why are you intent on destroying our happiness?
Susu! Who are you talking to?
Don't chase her
She was stabbed with the spirit dagger
Losing vital essence, she can't take human form
Master, where is my wife?
Did the white snake eat her?
The white snake was your wife
You married a thousand-year-old snake demon
Impossible!
Sister, I'll give you some of my vital essence
it's no use
You have only a few centuries' worth
That spirit dagger had thousands!
We were wrong to come here
It wasn't worth it, to see you like this
Maybe I shouldn't have done it...
But I have no regrets
Only now do I know...
...what true love is
Love...
Is it really so important?
Tell me...
How can I save Susu?
The one thing that might is spirit herb
It can bring the dead back to life
It only grows in the Lei Feng Pagoda
A demon like me can't even get in there!
Plus, there is only a single sprout
It is really, really scary. They say fire can't even burn it!
Even if it takes braving swords and seas of fire...
...I shall save Susu
I can't take you any further
You dare to steal the spirit herb? Thief!
Which is the real spirit herb?
You will know after your death
I'll find it even if it kills me!
I must save Susu!
There's only a single sprout. Fire can't even burn it!
They found us!
Did you get the spirit herb?
I did
then let's get out of here!
It is going to be a disaster If they catch you
You take the spirit herb, I'll distract them
Demons have been confined in Lei Feng Pagoda for aeons!
The spirit herb kept them trapped
Your theft has caused a catastrophe!
Let me go! Why are you keeping me here?
I needed it to save her!
I wounded Susu
Master, let me go! Let me go!
I wounded Susu
Master, we can't hold them much longer
Call all the senior monks, now!
We'll cast the Luohan spell!
I got spirit herb!
Spirit herb? From where?
Xu Xian gave it to me
Where is he?
The monks took him
Disciples!
Seal the main hall with a maximum protection spell!
Maximum protection in force!
Now we cast the spell!
Any interruption will kill him!
Leave! You trespass on hallowed ground!
Fahai, give me my Xu Xian!
You should be thankful you aren't dead
Why this further trouble?
Release him and I'll go at once
He stole the spirit herb for you
He's in great danger because evil spirits possessed him!
Now we're breaking your spell!
I possessed him?
That cannot be...
I want to see him
He's in a life-or-death struggle
Interrupting the ritual...
...will end his life...
...and threaten those around him
Relations between humans and demons can bring no good
You...
You're just coming between my sister and Xu Xian!
If you won't release him, I'll fight you!
If I don't leave with Xu Xian, I'll flood Jinshan!
You are selfish! How many lives will you threaten?
I will be forced to put an end to you unless you stop
Very well... You're forcing me!
Get the important ones first.
Quick!
Forward, brothers!
Charge!
Bite them!
Break their human chain!
Xu Xian! Xu Xian!
Xu Xian?
You...
It's me, Susu
Susu?
Who is Susu?
I'm your wife
When did I get married?
Do you remember how we met?
Duasatu.com
Fahai, what horrible magic did you use...
...to make him forget me?
As I told you, evil spirits possessed him
You broke in and disrupted the Luohan spell!
You're the one who's harmed Xu Xian!
What Luohan spell? What possession?
You're making it up!
You just want Xu Xian to leave me
You're a monster!
Qingqing!
Brother Neng Ren!
I have been a dharma defender all my life...
...to maintain natural order and ethical conduct
Why did the calamity happen instead?
Have I been too stubborn?
Was I really wrong?
Why is it...
...that every time I wake up...
...you're beside me?
Open the door! Let me out!
Let me see Xu Xian once more!
I don't care if you turn me to dust and scatter me
The love we had... was it not real?
Where is all your 'great benevolence' now?
Can't we see each other just once more?
Just once...
I'll accept my punishment
Amitabha...
Your mercy is boundless...
I understand...
Amitabha...
Xu Xian!
You're suffering...
I don't recognize you...
But for some reason I don't understand...
...when I see you shedding tears...
...my heart aches for you
Don't be upset, I don't want you to cry
I'll cry for both of us
I don't mind that you've forgotten me
My own memories are enough
Before I first saw you...
...I meditated for a thousand years
But those thousand years...
...were worth less than a moment with you
You'll never know...
...how I've had to suffer
But even if I die...
...I'll have no regrets
Susun.
"Your hair tickles my heart"
"Your eyes lingers in my mind"
"I can bear any hardships to be with you"
"Our love shall remain in the dark"
"year after year"
"but nothing can change it"
"Nothing at all"
"I will be there"
"if you are there"
"I vow to live for you"
"coz I can lose anything but you"
"Love is right"
"if there is joy between us"
"Our love shall survive"
"longer than any time"
"I vow to live for you"
"till the end of time"
"coz I can lose anything but you"
"Love is right"
"if the tortures on me are to protect you"
"Our love shall survive"
"longer than any time"
"And we'll meet again in our next lives"
Susun.
For the two of them...
...that was probably the best outcome
I never want to love anyone as she loved him
You... you'll never be much good as a demon
Neng Ren...
That new form you have...
It kind of suits you
