Magic Star (奇星记之鲜衣怒马少年时)

~ Episode 1 ~

Older Bro Bai Ze, take a look quickly! It's very pretty!

The Emperor specially arranged this for you.

Older bro, did you specially arrange for this too?

There is an assassin! Protect the Emperor!

Your Highness, quickly take Princess Zi Su into the palace.

There are traps that I designed inside. Leave now! - Leave now. Let's go

Older bro!

Your Highness!

Older Bro Bai Ze is really great. He was shot.

I didn't expect my shower of arrows would be so useful during critical moments.

I will design one for you too in the future. - Okay.

Aren't you embarrassed in saying this?

Bai Ze, I pressed this for about a hundred times just now.

That was a matter of life and death. Do you know that?

Your Highness, please don't be angry. I will make more improvements in the future.

Okay, get up. Get up. - Thank you, Your Highness.

Bai Ze, go and take a look now. Check who's the person who is so gutsy.

Yes.

Speak. Who sent you here?

Emperor, today is the day of your death!

Older bror!

Zi Su!

She is a demon exterminator.

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

Everyone, step back!

Let me go! - Zi Su!

Let me go!

You are not allowed to release the arrows! Be careful not to harm the Princess!

Release the arrows!

Zi Su!

Lord Ding. Did you find out who was the assassin transformed from the bat yesterday?

Reporting, Your Highness.

We still don't have any clues about those who died and escaped yesterday.

Ding Song,

you are the Minister of State, who command and control of palace guards.

How did the assassin escape your eyes,

enter and leave the palace that easily? Speak!

If it weren't for Bai Zhe and Zi Su last night,

I would have died.

I think...that if Your Highness didn't insist on lighting fireworks yesterday,

it wouldn't give those assassins a chance to fish in troubled waters.

Moreover, the imperial treasury is currently in a strained state.

Even it's for the Princess's birthday celebration, it shouldn't be so extravagant.

What are you implying?

I just hope that Your Highness can focus more on government matters. That will be the society's blessing.

I think you are trying to insinuate, and

was beating around the bush to say that Your Majesty is a useless king.

I wouldn't dare to.

Zi Su, you must not being so rude to Lord Ding.

Then, quickly investigate who the assassin is.

I will definitely investigate this thoroughly.

What should I talk about today?

I'll talk about the origin of these Heaven Strategy messengers.

Great! Great!

It was said that at that time, there was a battle between the humans and the demons.

The killings between the Mortal realm and the Demon realm turned everything into darkness for both sides.

But at that moment, there were Four Supreme Ones appeared.

These four supreme ones gathered the five magic stars to summon the divine power

for shutting down the doorway between the two realms.

With that, great misery and suffering in the mortal world was prevented.

You little rotten rascals!

Tomorrow is your father's death anniversary.

I let you guys come here to buy paper money

and you sneaked here to listen to stories. Come home with me now.

Zhan Xiong Fei, Zhan Xiong Fei. You are already a grown up.

What should I say about you?

You are so playful every day.

How are you going to let your father in Heaven rest in peace?

The magic tricks that he taught you,

you have only learned just the basics.

How are you going to make ends meet and marry a wife in the future?

Thirteenth Older Sis, didn't my father left me a precious sword?

Moreover, those stories by the storyteller are very interesting.

About the battle between the humans and the demons, and saving the world, I... - Stop!

The stories by the storyteller are all fabricated.

We are just ordinary people

living a simple life.

Stop having those wild imaginations now.

What about my father's precious sword then?

When you were young, your father was very poor.

He pawned the sword in order to raise you.

Lady Boss, someone is looking for you.

Yes. I will be there soon.

Yuan Shuai.

Today is Zhan Xiong Fei's father's death anniversary.

Help me to keep watch on him. Don't let him get into trouble again. - Okay.

Come with me. - Yes.

Dad, your son is here to see you.

I didn't come empty handed this time.

I brought you nice food and wine.

Dad, I'm not a filial son.

I disobeyed you and didn't just obediently be a magician.

It's because I really don't... I really don't want to continue to stay in this small town anymore.

I want to take a look out there.

I think if you are still alive,

you will definitely give me and Yuan Shuai your support.

You have made a mistake. This is our Abbot's.

This is Old Master Zhan's.

Father, I'm really sorry.

I made a mistake. There is still some left.

I do... I will repeat myself.

Father, your son... your son isn't filial.

I disobeyed you.

Zhan Xiong Fei, it's time to repay the money.

Both Big Bros, this is a Buddhist scared ground.

It's not right for you to behave like this.

Fine. Go down the mountain and talk to our Big Brother then.

Wait a minute! - Alright.

I will definitely return this money.

But... give me three days worth of time.

It's okay not to go down the mountains, too. Let's cut off his arms to repay his debt.

That works too! -Wait a minute!

Don't panic. Don't panic. His father is in our hands.

Hey!

Big Brothers, I was wrong. I'll obey. I'll obey.

Isn't that enough for me to obey? I...

But I really don't have any money on me right now!

Hey! Hey! Don't be rash! Don't be rash!

Put my father down!

There is only one solution now.

I will use my life to repay my debt.

You must promise me, once I'm dead,

you must let go of my father. - This...

Older Bro Fei!

Older Bro Fei!

How could he die?

Boss said only to get back the money. - Older Bro Fei!

He didn't say we should take his life. - OLder Bro Fei!

Older Bro Fei, you must not die. You must not die. - Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

If you die, I will be alone.

Older Bro Fei.

I didn't die.

This knife... - It's a magic knife. One won't die from being stabbed by it.

Let's go now. Let's go now. Let's go now. Help me up.

My father and your father too.

Something is not right. This cunning rascal wouldn't die that easily.

That's right.

Let's go back and take a look. - Okay.

Hey, I told you to be on the lookout and you let two guys in.

Did you know that our fathers were almost smashed to pieces?

But aren't our fathers already in this state?

No. Your father was... My father...

I'm so furious.

Older Bro Fei,

don't gamble in the future again. Gambling is not good.

I'll help you to pay back the debt you owe Ma Da Dao.

When my father was alive, he said that I'll never be a remarkable person.

He told me to follow you in life and death.

Don't worry.

I am someone that will become a great hero with indomitable spirit and is admired by millions.

When that time comes, we'll let those who bullied us know how great we are.

When we walk on the streets then, just imagine,

all the young girls will open their windows

competing to wave their hands towards us and to know us.

That kind of feeling... - It's great.

Older Bro Fei, there are people chasing us now. Shouldn't we think about how to escape first?

Yuan Shuai, based on the current situation,

it's useless reasoning with them. The bad guys won't be sensible.

Thus, we should make a detour.

Make a detour. Make a detour as far away as possible. - Okay.

Ignore them. - Let's go.

That way.

Bai Ze, I believe you have heard about the magic stars

but there is something that not everyone knows about.

That is when the divine power of the Five Magic Stars are depleted,

they'll turn into five ordinary rocks scattered in the universe.

It must go through another five hundred years before such a divine power will occur again.

Now the time is approaching, magic stars will appear again.

I hope you can collect the five magic stars

and protect the people of the world.

Your Highness, but my identity... - Wait...

It's because of your identity, that's why I want you to go.

I believe that you also want to know the truth behind the change in the Heaven Strategy.

Superficially, the Department of Heaven Strategy seems to just help the royal family in any place

to settle all problems

but in reality, there is only one motive for every operation.

That is to find and get back the five Magic Stars.

But all these years, we only found the Green and Black Magic Stars.

Fifteen years ago, the Black Magic Star suddenly went missing.

My father insisted on finding the truth.

Although not long after, the leader of Heaven Strategy messengers,

who is also your father, Bai De Ming, suddenly committed a suspicious suicide.

This operation is definitely extremely dangerous.

I have arranged for two excellent assistants to help you.

This is Zhan Ke. He's an excellent swordsman.

This is Yuan San Lang. He is a famous swordsman who uses saber.

Based on the information given to me by my spies, they should be living in seclusion

at the Yanjiao (Wild Goose Reef) Town at hte Northwestern border.
