"Put on your clothes" "I want you..." "Nonsense" "Why are you interested in her but not me?" "My figure and my looks are as good as hers" "To hell with you!" "You can't fool me" "You're Jin Shaozhi, the daughter of Jin Gangfeng" "How did you know?" "I suspected her at the teahouse" "She said her whole family got robbed and killed" "Then why was she only mildly injured?" "That's the clue" "My sons are dead" "And so is my daughter" "Rong Qiuyan, Ma Sen" "If I don't take you out, I won't live myself" "Chief" "What are you doing here?" "I know that Rong Qiuyan and Ma Sen... are now heading to Tong Beihai's house in Wannan" "I have a plan to kill them" "I'm listening" "Amitabha Buddha" "Travel around the places to make new friends" "Good rewards from good deeds" "Amitabha Buddha" "Hold on, please" "Amitabha Buddha" "Here for soliciting alms?" "Amitabha Buddha" "Fushou" "Yes" "Prepare some rice and noodles" "Yes, master" "May I know your name?" "Tong Beihai" "Mr. Tong, Amitabha Buddha" "You..." "Amitabha Buddha" "Brother Ma, turn your head please" "Why?" "Just do it, I need to..." "Brother Ma..." "Brother Ma..." "Wang Jun, what are you doing here?" "I spotted you from afar." "Where's Qiuyan?" "Over there" "Qiuyan" "Sorry." "I didn't know that you are..." "It's Brother Ma's fault." "He told me to come here" "I told you Qiuyan's here" "But I didn't tell you to walk up" "Qiuyan" "Sorry, please don't be mad" "It's not your fault, don't worry" "Why are you here?" "I've finished my business at Jian County" "And bought this horse, I traveled nonstop ...and now I've caught up with you" "Now we can go to Wannan" "I've got Brother Ma as my escort" "There's no need for you to rush" "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" "Since I left you" "That's what I've been thinking about" "You must be tired... get on the horse" "I've been thinking about you a lot" "Wear this red flower" "You look much prettier" "Don't be silly, I'm in mourning" "I can't wear red" "You're still young, and you're so pretty" "Why don't you dress up a bit?" "Do you plan to mourn... for the rest of your life?" "Look, we're entering Wannan" "All good things come to an end" "It's time to say goodbye" "Tiande was an honest and upright man" "Such misfortune" "What a shame!" "This is destiny, Qiuyan" "Don't be too sad" "I'm Tiande's uncle" "I've always treated him like my own son" "You may settle down here" "Make yourself at home" "Qiuyan, don't be sad" "Jin Gangfeng is ruthless" "I'm sure he'll be get his due retribution" "Thank you for... escorting Qiuyan here" "I appreciate it" "Guards" "Yes, master" "Prepare a feast, I want to drink with the guests" "Yes, master" "Please don't bother, I've to go" "There's something I must attend to" "If Brother Ma is leaving, I'll leave too" "Mr. Tong, goodbye" "Sure, I won't be in your way" "Qiuyan, please see the two warriors off" "Yes" "Goodbye" "Qiuyan, I'm off." "Take care of yourself" "You too" "Brother Ma, I'll see you around" "Bye" "Brother Ma, you plan to..." "I'll go where fate takes me" "Would we see each other again?" "Next autumn perhaps... when I pass through here, we might see each other" "Take care of the baby." "Bye bye" "Bye" ""Tong"" "Are you alright, Qiuyan?" "Walking around at this hour?" "Not used to staying here?" "No, during the past month" "I've been on the run" "Now that I'm settled down I feel sort of homesick" "I miss Tiande" "Yes, it's only natural" "Come sit down, let's have a chat" "Prepare the tea" "Yes, master" "You brought Tiande up since he was little" "He talked about you a lot" "We both owe it to you" "Don't mention it" "Tiande also mentioned that... you have a son named Zaisheng" "They grew up together" "How's your son doing now?" "He's doing quite well" "Great." "Maybe I can see him sometime" "Certainly... of course" "Please have your tea" "What are you doing?" "Why are you impersonating Tong Beihai?" "Why is the tea poisoned?" "Tell me" "What do you mean, Qiuyan?" "My late husband... wasn't brought up by Tong Beihai" "And Tong Beihai doesn't have a son... named Zaisheng" "You aren't Tong Beihai" "Rong Qiuyan, I'm impressed." "Charge!" "Charge" "Come on" "You aren't going anywhere" "Kill her" "Yes" "Let me go" "Qiuyan" "Hurry" "Go" "You go ahead, I'll stay behind" "Go" "Hurry" "Go" "So, can you walk?" "Wang Jun" "You can't go" "Qiuyan" "Are you alright, Qiuyan?" "I'm fine, don't worry" "Let's hurry" "Go" "You go ahead, don't mind me" "No, we can't leave you here" "We'll die together if we have to" "Don't worry, we've come off a long way" "They won't catch up for sometime" "Qiuyan, lie down" "I'll be on guard." "No one can hurt you" "You must be tired, have a break" "I'm fine, don't worry" "Wang Jun, you weren't involved in this" "Why did you get yourself involved?" "I'll be honest" "When we were learning martial arts together" "I was in love with Qiuyan at that time" "That's why I want to be on her side" "I'll try my best to protect her" "You'll sacrifice for her because of your love?" "Yes, if we could be together" "I don't mind to sacrifice" "Good... you and Qiuyan will be very happy" "But Jin Gangfeng is alive" "We won't be happy" "He deserves to be killed" "Don't worry" "I'll take him out myself" "You and Qiuyan will have good days ahead" "Thanks, Brother Ma" "You are our good friend" "Brother Ma..." "What is it?" "Brother Ma's gone" "Brother Ma" "He wrote something here" "Men have sorrow and joy" "Just like the different phases of moon" "It's just the way it is- let's wish for long lives" "Though miles apart, we'll share the moon's beauty" "Brother Ma's gone" "No wonder last night he remarked... that he wishes you and I could be together" "What else did he say?" "He said he shall kill Jin Gangfeng" "And we'd have a bright future ahead" "Brother Ma will face off with Jin Gangfeng" "Oh no!" "He's no match for the old monster" "Brother Ma" "Brother Ma..." "Brother Ma" "Brother Ma" "Brother Ma" "Wang Jun, I think this could be a miscarriage" "Please... help me" "What are you doing?" "Rong Qiuyan, it's your time to die" "What did you say?" "I've been waiting for this chance" "Ma Sen's gone, and you're about to have a miscarriage" "You can't beat me now" "What do you want?" "I want your life" "Are you mad?" "We learnt from the same master" "But I'm also the son of Jin Gangfeng" "He only has two sons and a daughter" "They are all dead" "But you don't know that he has a mistress" "And she's my mom" "He abandoned me when I was a child" "But he has announced that any of his sons... who kills you... can inherit his property" "So you're doing it for the money" "Wait, if you won't explain everything" "I won't rest in peace" "What's to explain?" "After your wounds were healed in the temple" "Why did you leave us?" "I had to go to the Tong family to take care of things ...so that you would fall into the trap" "Wang Jun, you're very clever" "But there's one thing you mightn't have expected" "What's that?" "You have no idea... that I'm faking a miscarriage now" "I knew you're up to no good" "That's why I wanted to blow your cover" "How long have you been suspecting?" "Since you left the Tongs" "How?" "Simple; there are only two people... who know that I'm staying at the Tongs" "Brother Ma was with me the whole time" "He's also Jin Gangfeng's enemy" "He won't be the mole" "And thatjust leaves you" "I guessed right... come on" "Kill me now and you'll be prosperous" "Come on..." "Please don't kill me..." "Walk away" "My husband's dead, so is my baby" "I have nothing to worry" "There's no point for me to run anymore" "I should head back" "Jin Gangfeng, even if I've to risk my life" "I must take my revenge today" "Ma Sen, what a hero!" "You've got a lot of courage to show up here!" "Jin Gangfeng" "I don't plan to walk out alive" "No matter what, I must end this today" "Charge" "This isn't him either" "Rong Qiuyan, Ma Sen" "I'm on the bridge at the back, come get me" "Jump quickly" "He's the real one, kill him"
