"Eternal Love"
-
[Episode 13]
-
In the beginning,
I picked you up from here.
-
When I found you, you were barely moving.
-
You didn't wake up
even after I took you home.
-
I thought I had taken home a dead snake.
-
I was nursing my wounds here.
-
I could have fully recovered
in three days.
-
Who knew you'd take me home
and apply yellowseed herbs on me?
-
Even now, my wounds aren't healed yet.
-
But you can't understand
even if I tell you this.
-
You can leave if you want.
-
But if you really go, I won't have
anyone to talk to anymore.
-
A kingfisher bird?
-
Little bird.
-
Are you injured?
-
You are so much like
the one that flew away.
-
If you don't mind,
then come home with me.
-
This bird is so pitiful.
I'm taking it home with me.
-
To you, am I any different
from this bird?
-
You are an unmarried woman.
-
Yet, you've shared the same bed
-
with the Celestial Tribe's Crown Prince
for three months.
-
If I don't marry you
-
I'm afraid nobody else
would dare touch you.
-
Golden Lion?
-
Your Highness.
-
You are still alive.
-
Where have you been
over the past 70,000 years?
-
Your Highness, I left after
Second Prince took the throne.
-
Why did you leave?
-
Have you seen Li Yuan?
-
Have you been searching for
Eldest Prince the entire time?
-
Yes.
-
I have been searching for
Li Yuan's whereabouts all these years.
-
Do you know where he is?
-
Has Second Prince
never told Your Highness?
-
Told me what?
-
I'm afraid he's the only one
in this world who knows most clearly
-
where Eldest Prince is.
-
What do you mean by that?
-
The Ghost Lord personally led
a rebellion 70,000 years ago
-
and had Eldest Prince imprisoned
in the Arctic Lands.
-
Impossible.
-
How is it impossible?
-
Li Jing would never do that.
-
And if it was Eldest Prince who killed
Ghost Lord's mother with his own hands?
-
What did you say?
-
Li Yuan killed Li Jing's mother?
-
Do not say a word, Your Highness.
-
I can sense the scent of
the Celestial Tribe.
-
Celestial Tribe?
-
You've brought
a black snake into the city?
-
That is most taboo in Zhong Rong State.
-
You again?
-
Miss, do you still remember me?
-
You tried to steal my fan last time.
Of course I remember you.
-
You thoroughly humiliated me last time.
-
Even when I'm dreaming,
I wake up with hatred.
-
Luckily, I have
come across you again today.
-
What do you want?
-
What is it?
-
What are you doing?
-
- I'll show everyone what you have here!
- Let go!
-
He pushed that lady to the ground.
-
Everybody, come look!
The witch is here again.
-
Witch?
-
The other day, she and another witch
stole my ancestor's heirloom.
-
For the sake of the city's people,
I have not left
-
just so I could one day
reveal this witch's true colors
-
and show you all the truth!
-
This lady sure is unlucky
for you to be so fixated on her.
-
Leaving aside stealing her fan
a few days ago
-
you were even taught a lesson
by a beautiful lady passing by.
-
What's the matter? Gone crazy?
Come to cause a ruckus again?
-
Exactly.
-
Don't say I didn't tell you
what is inside this basket.
-
Inside this is an evil... black snake!
-
- Black snake?
- Black snake?
-
A monster.
-
What's the matter? Scared now?
-
You lied to us last time.
-
Do you think we'll believe you
because you say there's a black snake?
-
If you don't believe me,
I'll lift this cloth and let you see.
-
No, no.
-
It is only a small snake.
It won't harm anyone.
-
Miss, do you mean there really is
a black snake in this basket?
-
Yes, but it is not some evil thing.
-
There really is something evil in there!
-
- Burn it!
- Burn it!
-
- No!
- Burn it!
-
- Burn it!
- Burn it!
-
- Burn it!
- No!
-
Burn it!
-
My ancestor's Monster Binding Rope
has finally come to use today.
-
- Burn the black snake!
- Burn it to death!
-
Burn it to death!
-
- There really is a black snake!
- Snake!
-
- Burn it!
- Kill it!
-
Kill it!
-
Kill it!
-
- Kill the black snake!
- Kill the witch!
-
How outrageous.
-
Calm down, Your Highness.
-
Look at what is inside the basket.
-
- Do not let her live!
- Kill them!
-
It's a dragon?
-
It's a dragon god!
-
Dragon god!
-
- It's a dragon god!
- It's really a dragon god!
-
- Dragon god!
- Bless us!
-
Bless us, dragon god!
-
I... Impossible.
Impossible!
-
You... You aren't a black snake?
-
In this world, only you would
take me for a snake.
-
You've become so big. How will I
take care of you from now on?
-
Now that I've shown my true form,
the Celestial Palace will be aware.
-
Wait patiently for me for a few days.
-
Miss.
-
Miss, that black dragon
once saved my grandson's life.
-
I don't have much to repay the kindness.
-
Why don't you come to
my house for a meal?
-
No need, Granny.
-
He is your savior, not me.
-
- Miss, we were mistaken about you.
- Yes, yes.
-
Miss, you must stay
so we can make it up to you.
-
That's not necessary.
If I leave too late, it will be dark.
-
- Miss, you must not leave like this.
- Yes, yes.
-
- If you leave, we will feel guilty.
- Thank you.
-
- Come with us.
- Miss.
-
- Thank you.
- Stay!
-
- Don't go, Miss.
- Miss!
-
- Miss!
- Miss!
-
Don't go!
-
We've wrongly accused the lady.
-
Just now, you said
-
it was Li Yuan who
killed Li Jing's mother?
-
That's correct. I heard Li Jing
say that with my own ears.
-
I am certain.
-
Has Your Highness never been suspicious
of Eldest Prince's disappearance?
-
No, I've never suspected Li Jing.
-
If Your Highness does not believe me
-
you can come with me
to Ghost Realm's Arctic Lands
-
to see the truth for yourself.
-
Without Li Jing's military seal,
nobody can go near there.
-
Yes, that is why Your Highness
must first steal the military seal
-
for us to be able to
rescue Eldest Prince.
-
- Steal?
- Your Highness.
-
Eldest Prince's life is in your hands.
-
What harm is there in stealing?
-
I took care of you for so long
-
but I didn't even know
you were a black dragon.
-
Since you are a dragon...
-
then go where you belong.
-
What does Your Highness
need to see me for?
-
I mentioned the Jade Purity Fan of Kunlun
to you a few days ago.
-
Do you remember?
-
Yes.
-
Didn't Your Highness say it is
in a mortal's possession?
-
Yes.
-
However, I went to the mortal realm
to investigate
-
and found the fan has disappeared again.
-
Would you be able to
locate its whereabouts?
-
An artifact of the Celestial Tribe
is like us immortals.
-
It does not appear in the records.
-
But if Your Highness
is interested in the mortal
-
I could look through this mortal's fate.
-
There’s no need.
-
I don't need to know
what she goes through.
-
I have been too meddlesome.
-
Speaking of which...
-
I'd like you to go to the mortal realm
to do something for me.
-
Please do tell, Your Highness.
-
- Your Highness.
- Your Highness.
-
- You may go.
- Yes.
-
How dare you.
-
In this palace,
only you like to be mean to me.
-
The Heavenly Lord has decided on
the date you become consort.
-
You shouldn't come here again.
-
Can't I serve you one last time?
-
Starting from when
you were 10,000 years old
-
I have been with you every day
while you were reading
-
and with you through
your morning and afternoon lessons.
-
Can't you just grant me
my wish this once?
-
Step outside.
-
Su Jin, think about this carefully.
-
If you do not leave
-
I'll call someone in and they'll see you
in such a state in my quarters.
-
Even if you have a million reasons
-
you won't be able to
become consort anymore.
-
You're threatening me?
-
I am in my prime.
-
If not for you
-
why would I marry Heavenly Lord?
-
You are saying
you want to be with this woman?
-
Yes.
-
The day has come for you.
-
You are aware of women now?
-
It isn't what you think, Third Uncle.
-
To me, she is like something I once lost
-
and have finally found after
thousands of thousands of years.
-
Third Uncle, do you understand
what I am saying?
-
Of course I understand.
-
After all that,
just three words are enough.
-
What are they?
-
You are enamored.
-
Instead of saying enamored,
I'd say I am repaying a kindness.
-
Repaying a kindness?
-
For the minor injury you sustained
from the Golden Lion?
-
Is that worthy of you saying
you'll repay the kindness?
-
You don't need to be embarrassed.
-
Going by what you said,
you two were brought together by fate.
-
You shared the same bed with her
for several months in the mortal realm.
-
Although it was only
a few hours in heaven
-
it is still considered monumental.
-
Think back. You've lived
dozens of millennia.
-
Countless goddesses at countless banquets
-
have tried to speak to you,
but have you ever given them the chance?
-
So, if you weren't enamored,
why would you share a bed with her?
-
All right, stop fighting.
-
You're already enamored.
Let's keep talking.
-
Talk about what?
-
Didn't you bring me out here
just to ask me
-
how to make her like you?
-
That's right.
-
However, I've never interacted with
mortal women before.
-
There is a phrase that puts it well.
-
Since the ancient times,
women have loved the hero.
-
There isn't a young woman
who doesn't like a charming man.
-
Walk right up to her
-
and smile at her.
-
She is guaranteed to melt.
-
Using your charms is beneath you?
-
All right, use something else.
-
Since the ancient times,
women have loved the hero.
-
Release a monster on
the mountain to scare her.
-
When she is scared witless
-
you'll appear wielding the Qingming Sword
-
and valiantly rush forward
to kill the monster.
-
Then you'll become her savior.
-
She'll have no means to repay you
except to devote herself to you.
-
So is this how you tricked Lady Cheng Yu
into giving herself to you?
-
Lady Cheng Yu and I
ended 30,000 years ago.
-
That is old history.
-
Why did you mention her?
-
Let's keep talking about you.
Will that method work?
-
It won't work, Third Uncle.
-
I showed my true form
in front of her a few days ago.
-
She wasn't frightened at all. She...
-
She is no ordinary woman.
-
Using your charms is beneath you.
Playing the hero won't work.
-
Then how about the other way around?
-
How about playing the pity game?
-
Third Uncle.
-
You like this one?
-
This method is the only one
that may be feasible.
-
Thank you, Third Uncle.
-
Let me remind you.
-
Create a barrier around Mount Junji
-
and shield it from
the eyes and ears of heaven.
-
Otherwise, someone will eventually notice
-
the Celestial Tribe's Crown Prince
is living there.
-
Don't worry, Third Uncle. I already
put up a barrier before I came back.
-
I'm not done yet!
-
He's so handsome. Why does he
need to play the pity game?
-
No... no...
-
Impossible! Impossible!
-
Out of everyone, you just had to
offend Crown Prince.
-
His Highness said
someone like you must be punished.
-
Tramp! You brought me harm!
-
- A diversionary tactic!
- All right.
-
I've looked at your fate.
-
You've done many bad deeds.
-
Your lifespan...
-
Your life ends this year.
-
I came all the way here. What kind
of fate should I write up for you?
-
I was originally thinking that
since winter is approaching
-
I'd dig a burrow for you
so you could pass the winter comfortably.
-
Who knew you'd turn into
a black dragon and fly off.
-
I won't have to worry about it anymore.
-
Let's go.
-
What's wrong? Are you all right?
-
There's so much blood!
-
Oh no, oh no.
-
This herbal medicine is used for
birds and snakes.
-
I don't know if it can be used on people.
-
Don't move! Don't move!
You bled a lot.
-
Are you all right?
-
You don't need to worry, Miss.
-
It is just a minor injury.
-
Minor injury?
You've been bleeding the whole time!
-
Wait here. I'll be done soon.
Wait for me.
-
I haven't cleaned your wound yet.
-
Wait for me.
-
Can you take off your clothes yourself?
-
No need to trouble you.
-
All right, all right.
-
I'll help you.
-
Let me wipe this clean for you.
-
It'll be a bit painful. Bear with me.
-
Does it hurt?
-
Let me change out the water.
-
Have I gone too far?
-
How come she is crying so much?
-
Should I find a physician for you?
-
I think I should find a physician.
-
This medicine is only used for
tending to small animals.
-
Your wound is so deep. I'm afraid--
-
Your wound is healed?
-
It is healed!
-
How is that possible?
-
Just now, it was...
-
It's said there is a rare plant
on Mount Junji of the Far East
-
that is a miraculous herb
for healing injuries.
-
Could the medicine you applied for me
be this very miraculous herb?
-
I randomly picked the herbs.
-
I don't know if they are
miraculous herbs.
-
Then... do you also have
internal injuries?
-
You are correct.
I have severe internal injuries.
-
Why are you so heavily injured?
-
Did an enemy come after you?
-
I happened across a monster
and fought with it.
-
Monster?
-
Are there monsters here?
-
Do you not know there are
many monsters on this mountain?
-
I've lived here for many months.
I've never seen any monsters.
-
That monster--
-
You are in no condition to speak.
Lie down for now.
-
That would be good.
-
Thank you, Miss.
-
- I'll make some food for you.
- All right.
-
I sold a basket of loquats
at the foot of the mountain
-
but only received very little rice.
-
I don't have many vegetables either.
-
- You've gone to much trouble, Miss.
- Here.
-
All right.
-
Seeing the condition you're in,
I think I should feed you instead.
-
I don't dare trouble you, Miss.
-
It's fine.
-
I often take care of
some injured small animals.
-
It's no trouble.
-
Miss, you sure are kind-hearted.
-
I am the only one living on
this mountain.
-
The nearest town is far away.
-
Instead of saying I'm taking them in,
I'd say they're keeping me company.
-
Otherwise, it is too lonely
being by myself.
-
Your injuries are so severe.
Why don't you stay here to recuperate?
-
The rice I received in exchange
should be enough to last you a few days.
-
Thank you, Miss.
-
What about yourself?
-
I...
-
I don't think I made
enough porridge today.
-
If you are not full yet,
I'll go pick some fruit.
-
Miss.
-
You are my savior.
-
Can you tell me your name?
-
I don't have a name.
-
No name?
-
I have no name and no family.
-
I live alone on this mountain.
I don't have any friends either.
-
In that case...
-
Why don't I give you one?
-
You'll give me one?
-
You are dressed so simple yet elegant.
-
The two words, Su Su, really suit you.
-
Su Su?
-
Su Su.
-
All right, then I will be named Su Su.
-
Thank you for giving me a name.
I'll go pick fruit for you now.
-
Miss.
-
Don't you want to know my name?
-
I forgot to ask.
-
What is your name?
-
Ye Hua.
-
Which two words are Ye Hua?
-
Can you write them out for me?
-
I know now.
-
What happened?
-
Did I bump into your injury?
-
No harm done.
-
Good. Let's leave.
-
What happened?
-
I just wanted to roast something
for you to eat.
-
Your roast produces so much thick smoke.
-
It's always been this way.
-
How did you survive before I came here?
-
I am not picky about my food.
-
When I'm hungry, I pick some fruit.
-
If I catch some small animals,
I roast them to eat.
-
It's a good thing you know
you have to roast them
-
and can't eat them raw.
-
I can't eat raw meat.
I get a stomachache when I do.
-
But, I used to take care of
a black snake.
-
It liked to eat raw meat.
-
It ate a lot every day.
It was very hard to take care of.
-
Is it that hard to take care of?
-
You've never taken care of
a snake, have you?
-
Naturally, you wouldn't know
the hardships of such a task.
-
That little black snake of mine
was absolutely finicky.
-
It had to sleep with me every day
-
and I even got a quilt because
I was afraid it would be cold.
-
Su Su, do you know snakes
don't need to sleep on a bed
-
and don't need to be covered by a quilt?
-
Really?
-
It's true.
-
Then perhaps it's because that
snake of mine is different from the rest.
-
That's why it really did turn into
a big black dragon later on.
-
It was about as large as this hut.
-
And then it flew away
and never returned.
-
All right, I'll stop talking about
that ungrateful snake now.
-
There should still be some fruit
in the house you can eat.
-
I'm going to pick
some more herbs for you.
-
Su Su.
-
How come you're here?
-
You're so heavily injured,
yet you walked so far.
-
- Are you all right?
- I'm fine.
-
It was late and you hadn't returned,
so I came looking for you.
-
- I got lost.
- Lost?
-
The last time I entered this forest
-
it took me eight days
to find my way out.
-
Eight days?
-
To be able to get lost to such an extent
is an ability all on its own.
-
I know you want to laugh at me.
-
It's all right. You don't need to
hold it in. Go ahead and laugh.
-
I have always been very tolerant
to those who aren't smart.
-
You were injured and walked so far.
-
You must not have
any energy left to keep going.
-
I was originally going to
pick some herbs and then return.
-
In the end, I lost my way.
-
It seems someone like me is only capable
of taking care of small animals.
-
No wonder my little black dragon
never came back to see me after it left.
-
It must have disliked me very much.
-
Do you miss it very much?
-
Perhaps it had no choice but to leave.
-
Dragons are from a clan of ancient gods.
-
Most of the time, they appear in
the mortal realm to subdue monsters.
-
And also because it is an immortal
-
it cannot stay in
the mortal realm for a long time.
-
Otherwise, it would affect the fates
of mortals and there would be trouble.
-
Really?
-
I remember now.
-
When the black dragon flew away
-
the city's people did seem to say
-
it subdued the gold...
-
Scarlet Flame Golden Lion.
-
Yes, Golden Lion.
-
How did you know?
-
It seems we'll have to
stay here for the night.
-
Make a fire and I'll tell you about it.
-
Okay, wait for me.
-
Keep telling the story.
-
Are you tired?
-
No.
-
The stories you tell aren't as pleasant
to hear as the ones told at the teahouse
-
but at least
they haven't been told before.
-
This Scarlet Flame Golden Lion arrived
-
at Mount Junji of
the Far East ten years ago
-
bringing scorched earth and drought
to the nearby Zhong Rong State
-
causing much hardship and poverty
for the people of the state.
-
Is it really that formidable?
-
On the tenth year, the Golden Lion
became even more savage.
-
He took a liking to the emperor's wife
and kidnapped her back to his cave.
-
And then?
-
He laid his hands on her.
-
Look at you.
I'm not even embarrassed yet.
-
How come you're blushing already?
-
Keep talking.
-
Finish the story.
-
And then...
-
And then the Golden Lion was subdued
by the black dragon you took care of.
-
And then?
-
And then...
-
Although the black dragon
defeated the Golden Lion
-
it had sustained a minor injury.
-
And then...
-
And then it met you.
