Murder Plot (Kong que wang chao) (孔雀王朝)

The Peacock Kingdom is outside Yumen Gate

It was said that 15 years ago

its king suddenly disappeared

The new king was called the Happy King

Our story

is based on the search of this legendary figure

This is your reward

If I remember correctly

You are the one who came here 7 times

without ever leaving your name

Our master has invited 7 guests tonight

You are one of them, please go in

That empty table is for you

The master is here

Sir, what can I do for you?

Everyone, you'll recall

there was a catastrophe 15 years ago

You refer to the 19 days' bloody battle

which killed 900 martial artists

15 years ago at Zhang Bai mountain

because good and bad heroes

wanted to seize the manual of the 72 techniques

of the invincible sword?

Are you referring to that catastrophe?

Yes, after 15 years' search

we discover it was one man's treachery:

That manual was a fake

That man wanted to use the false information

to cause heroes to kill each other,

while he became the biggest winner

Now we know he plans to invade our central territory

Who is he?

Yumen Gate, known as the Happy King

He is an unknown

but knows all of the secret techniques

He is black, has drooping eyebrows and a hooked nose

his clothes are tasteful and expensive

He loves wine and eating games

and is always accompanied by pretty ladies

He has four emissaries with him

who are deadly martial artists

and take on deadly missions

You have us asked to come because of him?

Yes, we of Yan Yi Mansion

have received annual subsidy from all schools

to rid us of villains

This is a murderer who killed 900 heroes:

Could we let him go?

Where can we find him?

I don't know

But I know that his treasures

have arrived at Yi City

Guests

Miss, we have been to Yan Yi Mansion

You are here to...

I'm looking for someone

So miss knows the top heroes

of the 6 main schools

Who would know these petty nobodies!

Don't move

Help me, hurry

If I die it'll be on your conscience

You're showing up?

I thought you were going to hide forever

Where are you going?

Wait for me

Miss

Go back first

Who is your Miss?

Zhu Cai Sheng's daughter

What?

She is the daughter of the

richest Zhu Cai Sheng?

Where are you going to?

Why must you look for me?

You are strange

Why must I look for you?

You are my fiancee

Didn't I write to tell you I will be

gone for 3 to 5 years, and that

I'd look for you when my mission is accomplished?

I read that letter

Look, so ugly

This truly looks like the tycoon Shen Lang

Shen Lang

Your letter said you were looking for someone:

Have you found this person?

I heard about him

at Yan Yi Mansion

Where is he?

Yi City

I haven't seen so many dead men in my life

What happened here?

If you want to know, you could go to

Hang Fa Chuen restaurant to find out

Someone is paying 5000 taels of gold

for this information

Please

Here are 5000 taels of gold

please tell me about

the death of these people

at Yi City

Half a month ago someone spread the rumour that

inside a tomb north of Yi City

was a large amount of treasures

People who heard about it

went to the tomb in the hope to get rich

But the tomb could not be opened,

and all those who went there

died without reason

12 hours later

That's why so many people died

in one day

The Ghost is really deadly

You mean the Poisonous sand which disappeared long ago?

Yes, they painted poison on the door

Once you push it,

the poison would penetrate your hands

and you'll die after 12 hours

Sorry, is the tomb

still sealed up?

That tomb killed many people in a day

who would dare go near it?

Sir, you are...

Li Chang Chun of Yan Yi Mansion

These are the Chiefs of the 6 main schools

of Wudong Qing Sheng Town

Hello

Little did I expect that a small amount of treasure

would attract so many heroes

Stop, we have to enter the tomb,

not for the treasure but for an important matter

You are...

This is the priest from Huashan

I am Tsui Re Yu

He is my younger brother

So you three are great heroes

My respects

I heard you say you are here for an important matter

would you be looking for someone like us?

Yes

Over there

You forgot, they said this door is poisoned

"Return or you would get killed"

Black Deadly Palm?

There are only 3 people who know this technique

They are the Black Eagle Pun Te, Gu Ning

and Lui Yi Mu from the Iron Palm school

But they are all dead

How could dead people kill?

Could the dead have come back?

Go back and fetch hero Li here

Yes

Let's go in and have a look

Alright

Are we going too?

Hey, I've never seen a ghost

it'd be interesting to see one

Whose tomb is it anyway?

Why there are so many coffins?

Why have you come only now?

In fact you shouldn't have come

you're too late

So many boxes, want to go in?

8 Diagram formation, this could be the door to life

Or to death

I've heard that the tomb is full of treasures

maybe the boxes are full ofjewellery

If you think so

why don't you go in yourself? Speak

I...

Shall we enter?

To know the tomb's secret

there's only one way

Go forward

So many...

People die for wealth

Even if you are a famous hero,

you will be tempted by these treasures

Who are you?

Please come out

This is the tomb of the king of the previous regime

In order to prevent desecration of the tomb,

he set many traps

Who are you?

I've been sent by Happy King to welcome you

I am Jin Wu Wang

Treasurer of the Happy King

These treasures belong to him?

They are all fakes

Then why put them here?

To lure the man the Happy King is looking for here

And then trap him here?

No, those outside

are an insignificant lot

They should know better than come here

The Happy King is afterjust one person

It's Hero Shen

What does he want me for?

Please come with me
