Not Dark Under The Light (灯下不黑之铜山往事)

There is such a place

in the war-torn Beiyang.

A split mountain

is like a steamed bread cut.

The mountain is called Tongshan Mountain

The road is called Tongshan Road.

It's the only way to the north and south.

Commander Xuan Wu was stationed outside the city.

He exploited the people and wasted money to build Tongshan Town.

but only for his own enjoyment.

Xuan Wu expropriated and amassed the poor people.

He killed whoever came,

and whoever came would be killed.

But he was chopped off by bandits.

The head of bandits

is the bandit who cares about the world,

North Dog.

North Dog pretended to be Xuan Wu and became the commander.

North Dog became Xuan Wu.

Then he spread the news that

Commander Xuan Wu defeated the bandits in triumph.

The bandits in Tongshan Mountain were wiped out.

White Tiger who hasn't made a name for generations

took this opportunity

and pretended to be North Dog and became a bandit.

White Tiger

became North Dog.

One day later,

he was imprisoned by the real North Dog.

Three years later,

the news spread to the south.

South Cat, a fan of North Dog, who had never seen North Dog before

found out that North Dog was still alive,

and was locked in Tongshan.

He led his friends to go north

to save his idol.

Before dark,

a friend I don't know

will get me out of here.

So before I leave,

let's have a talk.

I always treat you as my brother,

and gave you half a bowl of rice every day.

I thought

even if I can't touch the world,

at least I can make you move.

But it's been three years.

you didn't steal the key of the prison for me.

At first,

I thought you didn't want to leave this rice,

and didn't want to leave me.

But you're just a beast.

You did't understand anything.

Stop!

Leave the weapon.

Hurry up.

Where is the customs clearance document?

We are beggars,

not monks.

Do you think it's Journey to the West?

To obtain sutras in the west?

Why do you need a document?

You don't have the document?

One tael of silver.

to the Tongshan Mountain.

Are you asking for money from the beggars?

I'm hungry.

Get away!

Get away!

Cut the crap.

Give me the money.

One tael.

Here you are.

Come back early.

What do you mean?

There are three rules in Tongshan Mountain.

No one left.

No weapons.

No news.

No one left.

When it's getting dark.

no one can stay overnight.

No one.

What's the meaning of "No news"?

I won't ask who you are,

where you come from,

and where you go.

And you don't ask me

who's here

and who's been here.

After getting in Tongshan,

you can do whatever you want.

You know that.

Commander Xuan Wu is guarding the Tongshan Mountain.

Don't do anything stupid.

Here.

Drinking harms health.

Drinking makes things worse.

I know you're not North Dog.

It was hard to be in the prison for three years.

No matter who you are,

I treat you this meal

as a welcome.

Before this meal,

if you're telling the truth.

you can have a better life.

If you're telling the lie,

I'll kill you

after this meal.

I won't kill you,

because you stared at me from the beginning.

I like people with blood.

I like your lost eyes.

You still have the power

and smell.

Sour.

There's no need to put vinegar on the table.

But this power is used in the wrong place.

What if

the chopsticks go through your throat,

will you hurt?

It depends on the speed.

He won't feel hurt if it's fast

and vice versa.

We saved him, but he didn't return the favor.

Let's kill him anyway.

Stop talking.

Let me ask you.

The pigeon I sent to give you the message.

Did you see it?

Yes.

It's my pet.

Why didn't it come back to me?

I haven't eaten meat for three years.

I ate it.

You like birds, right?

Here.

How many people are there in prison?

Only me.

You're not North Dog.

Who are you?

I'm White Tiger.

You don't want to be a tiger, you want to be a dog?

Pretending to be North Dog?

North Dog is famous.

He has reputation.

A tiger is worse than a dog.

Do you have face to pretend to be North Dog?

How would I know?

I was arrested after being him for one day.

If I had known, I wouldn't have become a dog.

Where is North Dog?

He's mysterious.

He suddenly disappeared three years ago.

I pretended him because everyone said he was dead.

No one has seen him anyway.

Have you?

No, I haven't.

Are you crazy?

What do you mean?

I don't care who you are now.

I'm locked up in the prison of Tongshan.

You know Commander Xuan Wu is guarding the Tongshan Mountain, right?

You know Commander Xuan Wu killed people without blinking, right?

You tried so hard to break into the prison to save someone, right?

OK.

You don't have to know the first two,

but you must know you want to save North Dog.

Now you ask me what North Dog looks like.

You want to save your friend,

but you don't know who your friend is.

And you ask others who is your friend.

Do you really have the friend?

How about this, friend?

You saved the wrong person anyway.

Send me to jail now.

OK, friend?

Friend?

It's a pity that you don't speak crosstalk.

It's different when you're full.

Did you see that?

Grain is important.

Yes, brother.

We're hungry.

Let's eat.

Watch your appearance.

Eat properly.

Here comes the commander.

Xuan Wu will set off such a firework

before he goes to every place.

Seeing this fireworks,

and all beings should avoid it.

So,

few people know

what Xuan Wu looks like.

After North Dog replaced Xuan Wu,

he has been stationed outside the town

and never entered the Tongshan Mountain.

During this period,

the people of Dongshan Town live and work in peace.
