Give me back my food!
Little thief, stealing from the dead?
I have been watching you for some time
Give it back to me!
Alive they were my father's soldiers
Dead, my father's ghosts
Steal from them and you steal from me!
Give it back to me!
I will give you the bread
if you promise to be my slave
Let me down and I will be your slave
I don't believe you
Let me down and you'll see
Fine, if you promise
Kneel and it's yours. You are now my slave!
What a beautiful helmet you have!
May I touch it?
Really? You think it's beautiful?
Alright then. You can touch it
Go ahead
I trusted you! I shall never forget this!
Don't cry, Qingcheng
Do you know who I am?
I am the Goddess Manshen
Stretch out your hand
Your food is still there, isn't it?
Eat up
I am saving this for my mother
Your mother has passed away
She will not need this anymore
But Qingcheng must not die,
she must go on living
Do you always want to
have to steal food from the dead?
And you don't want to be a slave to others
My child, the Eye of Infinity
contains each individual's destiny
every contour of their fate
Their every smile, every tear
Yours... is also included
You can have the most delicious food
the prettiest clothes
and everyone will adore you
All the riches of the world will be yours
in return for a small sacrifice
Every man you love, you will lose
Any happiness they bring will be fleeting
Are you willing to accept this?
Yes I am
Once you have agreed this will
become your destiny for life
It can never be changed
Unless time flows backwards
winter falls in the spring
and the dead come back to life
Remember, all the riches of the world will
be yours in return for this promise...
Commander Yeli, what was that noise?
Barbarians
Barbarians? Where?
They are hiding from us
How many are they?
Twenty thousand
Twenty thousand?
Twenty thousand against three thousand?
You should say
three thousand against twenty thousand
Be proud to be one of the three thousand
Our enemies are the ones to quake in terror
as they are about to face our Great General
How many slaves have you brought?
132! Great General
I'll take them all
For this price you can't even buy dead bodies!
I am buying dead bodies
None of them will survive the battle
But Commander you said...
Here are 1330 pieces of silver.
Count it!
Thank you for the extra 10
There is no extra, 132 slaves plus you is 133
Tell them to stand up
Sir, slaves do not know how to stand
They only know how to kneel or crawl
I shouldn't really give you this piece of meat
I earned it, not you
The alarm!
Where are we going?
Into the valley, to lure the enemy towards us
When they think they have destroyed our army
We shall ride down and attack
What is it?
Listen...
Run!
Flee?
They have bought our lives.
They'll kill us if we turn back!
Remember, Kunlun
I am still your master and
you have to protect me with your life
Yes, Master
Kunlun, up the hill!
Shoot
These slaves have been
ordered to deflect the first attack
Don't let them escape!
Great General
Those stupid barbarians don't know
this valley is shaped like a horseshoe!
That slave is overtaking them and
guiding them straight back!
Charge!
To the death!
Do not look back! Keep going!
What are you all doing?
You betray me?
My rescuer comes!
My great General Guangming is here!
You have shamed me, I shall kill you!
I shall kill you!
You?
He has killed the King!
Keep Going!
General Guangming
Don't think that because you saved my life
I shall be obliged to stay with you
From the moment the King turned against me
My mind was made up
I shall never again let a man possess me
I have had enough
If you take one more step I shall jump
You must not die, you must go on living
You must not die, you must go on living
Great General, I do admire you
It took me a year's planning
to get to the Princess
Yet you managed to abduct her
in a matter of minutes!
It never occurred to me to kill the King
But you did it without batting an eyelid
What imagination, Great General!
The King's favorite becomes his murderer!
You have always known
how to reach for the stars
You are utterly ruthless
As long as you are alive
I can only be second best
not just on the battlefield,
but in the hearts of the people
What will they think of you now.
the King's assassin?
Here's a proposal if you are willing
to jump off the cliff
I shall let Qingcheng live
Not that you would ever die for another
Because you...
You are even more ruthless than I am
Keep your word and I'll jump
I, Wuhuan, am not usually a man of my word
but I'll make an exception this once
General!
Remember Qingcheng, every man you ever love
you will lose...
Welcome! Welcome!
How do you like my golden birdcage?
Is this where we are going to spend the night?
Did you think
I brought you here to be my consort?
You cannot seduce me
No?
I thought you would be grateful
If it weren't for me
you would never have tasted such true
and exquisite love
Pity it was only for an instant
Where is your beloved now?
Because of you, "He is dead!
Put it on, my caged bird!
Traitor! Assassin!
Let's go!
Hang him up, let him die here!
Think you could hide from us in the forest?
If you hadn't been our general
We would have killed you ten times over!
Leave him here to feed the wolves
General
In order to claim victory,
you sacrificed 133 innocent slaves
This, I understand
But to kill the King for a woman?
This, I cannot fathom
Yeli, it wasn't me who killed the King
You are the only man in the world
who would dare do such a thing
If this is your opinion
just deliver me to Wuhuan?
Go ahead!
You have lost everything
because of your recklessness
Who says I have lost everything?
I have lost nothing!
You have lost your bet
It wasn't me who killed the King
I never said it was you
All I said was
The Master of the Crimson Armor
would kill the King
I am the Master of the Crimson Armor
Not anymore
You don't have to believe me
but your destiny will not be altered
You are innocent
yet you have been forced to bear
the blame for the King's death
Fate works in mysterious ways
There are more losses to come
and there is nothing you can do to stop them
Soon you will lose even your cherished armor
and be left with nothing
There will be
a new Master of the Crimson Armor
He alone will be the authentic god of war
And he alone will be loved by Qingcheng,
beauty of beauties
When the blossoms of the cherry tree
all have fallen
When sun and moon appear side by side
Qingcheng's true love will come to her
I want to have another wager with you
I say I will retain my armor
And win the love of this Qingcheng!
General, I love your confidence
Such a shame...
Master, it was me who killed the King
Why did you do it?
I saw a man with a sword about to kill a woman
Because of a woman
You disobeyed my order?
You deserve to die
but not just yet
Go find this Qingcheng and bring her to me
I will find her, Master
Give me back my armor
Yes, Master
Kunlun! What are you waiting for?
Through that door and we'll be free!
Who is he?
I also want to know
He must be from the Land of Snow...
Wait!
He is mad!
Are you saying that Guangming deceived me
with nothing more than a switch of armor?
And the one
who pretended to be him was his slave?
And I was outwitted by this slave?
So you are the true assassin!
What is that in your hand?
My Lord, please examine this
The feather is mine!
Yours?
As a slave, even your life is not your own
They have stained my fan
Take him away!
You do understand
why they had to die don't you?
Now that they are gone
Nobody will know who really killed the King
Still, you had better deal
with the slave as well
When he is dead
the people will condemn Guangming
as the assassin
You were the only one
who could have killed the general
But you failed me in that mission
If now you refuse to kill your countryman
I shall have to take back my cloak
and you will simply vanish into thin air
Yes, Master
I managed to untie myself
but there is no exit
Will you help me find a way out?
Come back up here
and I will show you the way
You said I came from the Land of Snow
You said you would not kill me
If I don't kill you, I will be killed!
