Giant Snake Incident at Yellow River (黄河巨蛇事件)

The souls of the drowned

must have strong evil aura.

Black dogs have the strongest yang qi.

They lie in the 11th mundane branch,

which restricts the element of water.

Tie the dead body

with a rope made of dog hair soaked in dog's blood.

It can repel evil and avoid demons

and soothe the souls of those who died in vain.

Then hang the body of the drowned man on Beiyin Cliff.

Avoid three kinds of lights

and wait for their family to acknowledge them,

bring them home and bury them.

It's not peaceful these days.

Many people died for no reason.

The Zhao family

have lived

and died by the Yellow River

for a thousand years.

We traveled between the yin and yang realms.

We made our living by salvaging bodies and reincarnating the dead.

We've experienced many strange things.

We've never shied away.

But that year,

there was an unexpected disaster in Xiba Village.

It's coming up. Pull harder.

Oh my!

Hurry up.

Inform Chieftain.

Hurry!

Help!

The villagers found another corpse.

Please take a look.

Bring it up.

Slowly.

These dead people are not from our village.

Could it be...

Snake!

Go back now.

Don't go to the river today.

Okay, we'll go back now.

I remember our ancestors said there was a deity under the river.

Could it be the outsiders came to our village to...

Watch your mouth. Hurry up.

I order you to write and hide all demons.

Chen...

Chen

You are not yourself. Your body is not imperishable.

Burn your body with fire to resurrect.

It's not the mud in the river.

It's visceral blood.

You died an unnatural death.

It seems that you encountered something dirty when you were alive.

Since you've seen the sun and died here,

you're giving advice

to future generations.

Collect the body.

Turn back to Beiyin Cliff.

A coffin floating up from the river.

Hey.

See what's inside.

Yes. -Yes.

What year do you think this coffin was made?

Maybe it belonged to our ancestors.

We can't use any strength in the river. Take it to the shore.

Okay.

San'er, what's wrong?

My leg.

There's something in the water.

Come up.

Hurry up.

Give me your hand.

Swim quickly.

Do we

encounter the deity?

Father.

It's been 20 years.

For the past 20 years,

I've been following your instructions.

Zhao's Memorial Tablet of Zhao Rong'an

Zhao's Memorial Tablet of Zhao Wanqing

I sent the coffin

away again and again.

But now,

it's a year of calamity.

I'm afraid the town can't hold on.

Give it back!

Give it to me.

Shunzi.

Shunzi, is there anything to eat?

Stop looking.

I have nothing.

Tonight.

We might find something delicious tonight.

Really? -Tonight.

Wait for me.

Really?

Great.

The ancestors of the Zhao family.

Please teach me

how to do.

Chieftain.

Zhao's Memorial Tablet of Zhao Wanqing

The child of the Li family

and the elder of the Shen family

are dying.

Let's take a look.

Chieftain.

Keep an eye on Young Master.

Don't let him cause trouble everywhere.

Okay.

Young Master.

Are you still alive?

Young Master.

It's been 15 minutes.

Do you want to take a breath?

Zhao Bai.

Zhao...

Our young master is not home.

Go away. -Go away.

Go, go, go.

There's a foreign boat at the port in town.

It's huge.

It must be a boat of rich people.

Really?

Is it reliable?

Ask them

to gather at the dock tonight.

OK.

Young master.

What are you going to do?

What am I going to do?

I will take you to have roast chicken tonight.

Roast chicken?

Here we are.

Let's go.

Over there.

Young Master.

Forget it.

What if we get caught?

Look.

What is this?

Ah.

Why did you take the gold bell out?

What if Chieftain finds out...

Sooner or later,

it'll be passed on to me.

So what if I use it now?

Besides,

it has Invisible Eye,

so that we can travel smoothly

in the Yellow River.

But...

But what?

Fatty Fish.

Don't you want to have roast chicken?

Two roast chicken.

Let's go.

You keep watch.

No problem.

Let's go.

Let's go.

I'll have the roast chicken.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Stop!

Who's there?

Go!

You go first.

He's something.

I'll go teach him a lesson.

Okay.

Stop chasing.

Freeze!

Freeze!

Stop!

Get down!

Beans.

Look how nice these beans are.

And rice.

There are potatoes here.

Corn. Corn. Potato.

We finally have dinner tonight.

We won't worry about eating.

Beef.

Young Master.

There's beef here.

Sit down.

It's dangerous.

Take more home tonight.

Isn't your mother sick?

She needs some nutrition.

Yes.

Stewed beef with potatoes.

Fried shredded potatoes.

Yes.

Stop searching.

Pack up

and go back early.
