The Enchantress (妖魂)

Strange things happen in the night fog.

This is "Moonlit Sky",

...by the shore of the South Sea.

During the moonlit nights,

the waterfall reflects colorful lights,

...creating a beautiful backdrop.

Hence the name.

This is a very picturesque place, but...

there has been a string of

People can hear mysterious sounds

but no one has seen the player.

Many from the...

martial arts world have come here

The strange thing is,

no one who comes here ever returns home.

After they have disappeared for days,

their bodies would flow out

Rumour has it that in the...

past 2 years there have been hundred

And today,

a young, slick swordsman is here

He's the young chief of Feng Xiwu.

Excuse me, miss.

The sound seems to emanate from

Is this some rare instrument?

If you know that,

why did you ask me?

I think it's not just that,

even its player is as pretty as a fairy.

That's her!

Hurry.

There she is.

That's her!

Go! Attack

Wait...

Can you tell me what's going on?

None of your business.

Our boss is interested in her.

If that's the case,

you could do it the proper way.

there's no need to be so rude.

Just mind your own business.

What then?

Let's go back.

Miss, do you play here every night,

how do those bullies know you?

Swordsman, we hardly know each other,

why all the questions?

Okay, I'll be frank.

I'm not here by mere coincidence.

I've heard rumors...

about this place lately.

During nights with dense fog,

hundreds have gone missing.

Not until the morning, could be bodies

Drained of blood,

If you've been playing zither here,

guess you'd have seen or heard anything!

In any relation it's hard to say

What's the point in doing this;

why look for trouble yourself?

Are you trying to tell me something?

Do you know the truth?

There's no point in asking.

You better leave,

and don't ever come here again.

Then...

Miss, miss.

Please head back.

Miss.

Miss...

Didn't I tell you to leave?

Why?

Just go.

What's going on?

Didn't you mention...

many were missing here?

Yes, that's why I'm here.

You've made a mistake.

My dear child, do we have a special guest?

Why don't you invite him in?

Who's talking?

My mother.

Dear guest, why don't you come inside?

Thanks for the welcome

I heard that over ten years ago,

this place housed many Japanese samurais.

However it has been deserted since then.

How come I am here...

in this foggy night?

What's this place?

Does that matter?

You're our guest of honour tonight.

You're here too!

Her name is Shuiling.

Nice to meet you, Shuiling.

Shuiling.

I told you to invite

Didn't you hear me?

Mother, I...

Madam, you are...

I'm the hostess,

...and her mother.

But you don't...

Look my age?

That was a long time ago.

And it looked just like this.

I see.

Lady, I heard rumours that...

many martial arts experts went

Would you have any idea why?

Is that why you are here?

May I know your name?

Feng Xiwu.

My father is Feng Tengjiao;

The Best Swordsman.

Lan Tianyu and your dad have learnt

That's right.

Lan Tianyu and my father learnt from

Well, this is fate.

Shuiling.

Yes, mother.

Have you forgotten something?

You know how to serve our guests?

Mother.

I told you that he's saved me.

In that case, you should serve him wine.

Yes, mother.

Take it.

Young swordsman, this wine is different;

Don't drink it if you cannot take alcohol.

Shuiling, our guest is well travelled,

he sure can hold his drinks.

Please.

Thank you.

Mother.

Young swordsman.

Mother, you must save him.

Move away.

Thank heavens...

for sending the heir of my enemy here.

Wonder how he could come this far;

He must be born on 1st of January of

You know, his blood...

would be equivalent to the blood

Mother, please let him go.

Pull her away, move away!

Miss, miss.

Mother, please let him go.

It's time, princess.

Catch her.

Mother, what are you doing?

Mother.

Mother.

Okay, now I'll put my soul on you,

keep an eye on him.

I'll come back for his blood later

Let's go, it's time.

Wake up, swordsman.

I'll come back for his blood later

No, I can't let him die.

Young swordsman.

Why am I here?

It's daytime.

Are you alright, Shuiling?

Don't ask, you must leave.

Where are you going?

Back home.

Miss, miss.

What's wrong with you?

I don't know, I'm freezing.

It's really cold.

Shuiling.

So cold...It's getting worse!

Where can I find a doctor?

Ku Didi.

What's going on?

Nothing at all

I'm just practising

Watch out for your own head.

Do something worthwhile

Making all these noises so early

Master, that's what you taught me.

First thing in the morning,

the Bodhisattva, Master Zhang,

And you asked me to practise

Who'd have thought when I was

And you woke me up.

I've got work to do now,

I'm going to Baiyun Temple to

I won't be back until tonight.

It's dry; be careful of fire.

Got it! I won't play with fire.

Excellent! The master's gone!

Ku Didi.

Feng Xiwu, what are you doing here

We're supposed to be monks; no desires

Not meant to be around women

Shut up, she's dying.

Is she? Follow me.
