    [Episode 20: Lady Fate (1)]
[00:05] ---
    Eaten…
[00:07] ---
    They were all eaten…
[00:15] ---
    I'll also…
[00:49] ---
    Eleven?
[00:52] ---
    There were originally nine,
[00:53] ---
    but we had some good luck,
[00:55] ---
    and we obtained two more.
[01:10] ---
    Safe travels.
[01:37] ---
    We're not there yet.
[01:38] ---
    Sleep some more.
[01:45] ---
    It's kind of dark.
[01:46] ---
    You're afraid of the dark?
[01:49] ---
    These people
[01:50] ---
    didn't object when they were drugged.
[01:53] ---
    They're sick.
[01:54] ---
    They have no energy.
[01:57] ---
    Sickness isn't what saps away their energy.
[01:59] ---
    Despair is.
[02:01] ---
    Sent to cages by their loved ones
[02:03] ---
    and locked up like livestock.
[02:06] ---
    Wait.
[02:07] ---
    This isn't like you.
[02:14] ---
    Ah, right.
[02:15] ---
    Don't use your powers.
[02:16] ---
    Just pretend to be sick.
[02:18] ---
    Why?
[02:19] ---
    The closer we get to the scent's source,
[02:21] ---
    the stronger its effect against spirits.
[02:23] ---
    If you act impulsively,
[02:24] ---
    even anti-nausea pills won't save you.
[02:30] ---
    What is this incense?
[02:31] ---
    You wouldn't understand.
[02:32] ---
    Just rest.
[02:34] ---
    In a bit,
[02:35] ---
    we can meet Moya's mother-in-law.
[03:28] ---
    Madame, I've returned.
[03:46] ---
    The goods are ready.
[03:49] ---
    Thank you, Steward Qin.
[03:50] ---
    I'll take a look now.
[03:52] ---
    Madame.
[03:53] ---
    How is Miss Shanhai?
[03:54] ---
    Same as usual.
[03:55] ---
    Then the little monk…
[03:56] ---
    Steward Qin,
[03:59] ---
    you should rest.
[04:26] ---
    Greetings, Madame.
[04:27] ---
    They're all inside?
[04:29] ---
    Eleven, waiting for your inspection.
[04:48] ---
    [99 Days]
[04:51] ---
    Number one's no good.
[04:57] ---
    Three's no good.
[04:58] ---
    Four's no good.
[05:11] ---
    Why can't I see anything?
[05:17] ---
    Can't see how long 'til I kick the bucket?
[05:19] ---
    Madame!
[05:24] ---
    Hmph.
[05:25] ---
    The Hundred Spirit Record says
[05:27] ---
    Fates eat the dead
[05:29] ---
    and can see when people die.
[05:31] ---
    Those with human forms
    appear as beautiful women
[05:33] ---
    and are called Lady Fates.
[05:37] ---
    Who are you?!
[05:51] ---
    I'm from Tao City.
[05:54] ---
    Where the golden bell goes,
[05:55] ---
    nothing will remain.
[06:00] ---
    Madame Wen,
[06:02] ---
    the business with the little monk…
[06:04] ---
    Let's discuss it.
[06:06] ---
    Never!
[06:07] ---
    That isn't up to you.
[06:09] ---
    Let go of her!
[06:31] ---
    Where… am I?
[06:38] ---
    Is it a wedding chamber?
[06:42] ---
    Amitabha, amitabha, amitabha!
[06:54] ---
    Benefactress, wake up.
[06:57] ---
    Benefactress?
[07:02] ---
    There's no use.
[07:07] ---
    I waited so long for you.
[07:11] ---
    What?
[07:13] ---
    I'm leaving everything to you.
[07:16] ---
    To me?
[07:18] ---
    Do you want me to chant sutras
    for the newlywed couple?
[07:23] ---
    Or do you want me to be a servant?
[07:28] ---
    Or are you…
[07:29] ---
    using me as a wedding sacrifice?
[07:35] ---
    What a good joke, son-in-law.
[07:38] ---
    Son-in-law?
[07:42] ---
    Miss Shanhai's happiness
[07:45] ---
    is up to you now.
[07:48] ---
    Shanhai?
[07:50] ---
    Are you satisfied with this bride?
[07:56] ---
    Amitabha, amitabha.
[07:57] ---
    Benefactor, don't joke about that.
[07:59] ---
    There must be a mistake!
[08:00] ---
    There isn't, there isn't.
[08:03] ---
    Uncle,
[08:04] ---
    My family's madame
[08:06] ---
    is definitely looking for you!
[08:09] ---
    No, no!
[08:10] ---
    I'm a monk!
[08:11] ---
    How can I be someone's husband?
[08:13] ---
    Uncle,
[08:14] ---
    stop resisting.
[08:19] ---
    H-help!
[08:20] ---
    Let go of me!
[08:21] ---
    Help…
[08:28] ---
    Help…
[08:31] ---
    me…
[08:52] ---
    You came pretty quickly.
[08:54] ---
    It was a willing exchange.
[08:56] ---
    But now you're backing out?
[08:57] ---
    An honorable person wouldn't do that.
[08:59] ---
    Hmph.
[09:00] ---
    I'm not an honorable person.
[09:02] ---
    What's more, I sold the little monk to you,
[09:04] ---
    not to her.
[09:05] ---
    The deal doesn't hold water.
[09:08] ---
    What do you want?
[09:10] ---
    Why don't we renegotiate?
[09:13] ---
    Hmph.
[09:13] ---
    Such a scoundrel
[09:14] ---
    at such a young age.
[09:16] ---
    If you continue to threaten her,
[09:17] ---
    don't blame me for what comes next!
[09:20] ---
    I usually try to avoid fighting.
[09:22] ---
    Do you know why?
[09:27] ---
    Before I make my first move,
[09:29] ---
    my opponent dies.
[09:33] ---
    Hmph.
[09:34] ---
    You're bluffing.
[09:36] ---
    All this time, at least,
[09:37] ---
    you've shown no intention of killing.
[09:41] ---
    I was in a rush earlier,
[09:43] ---
    and I didn't realize who you were.
[09:44] ---
    That was my mistake.
[09:47] ---
    If I didn't want you to recognize me,
[09:50] ---
    you'd never be able to.
[09:54] ---
    But scrambling here so quickly
[09:56] ---
    at just a whiff of trouble…
[09:57] ---
    Madame Wen, your bodyguard
[09:59] ---
    is so dedicated.
[10:04] ---
    I'm no match for you.
[10:06] ---
    Please, just don't harm her.
[10:11] ---
    Steward Qin…
[10:16] ---
    Give me the monk.
[10:17] ---
    We'll discuss everything else later.
[10:20] ---
    No!
[10:21] ---
    I won't tell you where he is!
[10:23] ---
    Is this how you beg for mercy?
[10:26] ---
    Kill me, then!
[10:27] ---
    No, Madame!
[10:28] ---
    Oh?
[10:29] ---
    Shameless, are we?
[10:31] ---
    You know what'll happen
[10:32] ---
    if you make me unhappy.
[10:34] ---
    Madame.
[10:36] ---
    Steward Qin.
[10:37] ---
    You've been with me for years
[10:38] ---
    and know what I deeply desire.
[10:40] ---
    Tao Yao can easily kill spirits.
[10:41] ---
    She'll really take your life!
[10:43] ---
    Shut up!
[10:45] ---
    Lady Fate.
[10:46] ---
    You're so stubborn.
[10:51] ---
    No!
[11:17] ---
    Stop!
[11:25] ---
    Why do you look like you're giving birth?
[11:28] ---
    Your medicine was weak!
[11:30] ---
    I told you to stay calm and not move around.
[11:33] ---
    Why are you blaming the medicine?
[11:36] ---
    I found the little monk.
[11:38] ---
    Who are you?!
[11:40] ---
    Madame Wen was so engrossed in our discussion
[11:43] ---
    that she didn't notice
[11:44] ---
    one of the beds was empty.
[11:46] ---
    Since when do those from Tao
    City collude with spirits?
[11:53] ---
    Didn't you find Moya?
[11:55] ---
    Where is he?
[11:56] ---
    An underground wedding chamber.
[12:01] ---
    I can't get him out.
[12:06] ---
    Where's the entrance?
[12:08] ---
    The east wall of the next room.
[12:10] ---
    Then lead the way, Madame Wen.
[12:13] ---
    You too, steward.
[12:14] ---
    Lest I accidentally
[12:16] ---
    wipe flesh-eating medicine on someone.
[12:20] ---
    You…!
[12:26] ---
    Need a hand?
[12:29] ---
    Just shut up!
[12:33] ---
    If you'll please.
[13:21] ---
    What's your name?
[13:28] ---
    My… my name is Moya.
[13:35] ---
    Moya?
[13:37] ---
    What an interesting name.
[13:44] ---
    Nice to meet you. My name is…
[13:46] ---
    My name is…
[13:48] ---
    Strange. What's my name?
[13:52] ---
    Um…
[13:54] ---
    Benefactress,
[13:55] ---
    I heard someone call you Shanhai just now.
[13:59] ---
    Shanhai?
[14:02] ---
    Right! I'm Shanhai!
[14:03] ---
    Wen Shanhai.
[14:05] ---
    Miss Shanhai,
[14:07] ---
    nice to meet you.
[14:10] ---
    Amitabha.
[14:12] ---
    You're afraid of me?
[14:14] ---
    I'm afraid of the wedding attire.
[14:17] ---
    The clothes won't eat you.
[14:20] ---
    I'm a real monk!
[14:22] ---
    No women or wine!
[14:24] ---
    I can't become your husband!
[14:26] ---
    Please, on Buddha's account,
[14:28] ---
    let me go!
[14:30] ---
    Don't bow to me.
[14:32] ---
    I'm not a bodhisattva.
[14:34] ---
    I don't even know how
    long I've been here for.
[14:36] ---
    I want to get out, too.
[14:39] ---
    What is this place?
[14:41] ---
    I only know
[14:43] ---
    that I've seen a lot of
    little monks your age.
[14:47] ---
    I'm not the first one?
[14:48] ---
    No.
[14:50] ---
    They all came to get married to you?
[14:54] ---
    Yes.
[14:55] ---
    That's absurd! Monks can't marry!
[15:02] ---
    Amitabha.
[15:03] ---
    My apologies.
[15:06] ---
    Wait.
[15:07] ---
    Then your previous…
[15:09] ---
    husbands…
[15:10] ---
    Where are they now?
[15:12] ---
    They were eaten.
[15:14] ---
    What?!
[15:16] ---
    Eaten?!
[15:20] ---
    You think I ate them?
[15:31] ---
    What's that?
[15:36] ---
    Just don't get near the window!
[15:38] ---
    Hide here!
[15:53] ---
    No, I can't stay here.
[16:12] ---
    Moya!
[16:17] ---
    I'm a monk.
[16:18] ---
    I won't wear these things! I won't!
[16:31] ---
    This…
[16:45] ---
    Don't waste your energy.
[16:47] ---
    You can't take off the wedding attire.
[16:53] ---
    What's going on?!
[16:55] ---
    Why won't you let me go?
[16:59] ---
    It's not that I won't let you go.
[17:00] ---
    I can't even save myself.
[17:06] ---
    See no evil, see no evil.
[17:07] ---
    Miss, don't try to tease me.
[17:09] ---
    Please respect yourself!
[17:10] ---
    Moya.
[17:11] ---
    I'm not teasing you.
[17:13] ---
    Turn your head and look.
[17:23] ---
    W-why is your body...
[17:27] ---
    For every husband that comes,
[17:29] ---
    I lose a part of my body.
[17:34] ---
    This time,
[17:35] ---
    I'm afraid it'll be my head.
[17:56] ---
    It's leaving.
[17:58] ---
    I hope I covered your breath in time.
[18:02] ---
    Your face is so red.
[18:04] ---
    Was I smothering you?
[18:06] ---
    N-no.
[18:08] ---
    Thank you, Miss Shanhai.
[18:11] ---
    Just call me Shanhai.
[18:13] ---
    Or big sister Shanhai.
[18:15] ---
    Call you big sister?
[18:17] ---
    You're seven or eight at most, right?
[18:19] ---
    Why can't you call me big sister?
[18:22] ---
    Forget it. I'll just call you Shanhai.
[18:27] ---
    Listen to me.
[18:28] ---
    I was kidnapped on the road.
[18:30] ---
    If I can find my companions,
[18:31] ---
    no matter what you need,
[18:33] ---
    they'll find a way to help you!
[18:35] ---
    We have to leave this place.
[18:37] ---
    But you'll be eaten if you leave.
[18:40] ---
    That monster always eats the monks first,
[18:43] ---
    then comes to bite me.
[18:46] ---
    Shanhai.
[18:48] ---
    You've also helped other
    monks this way, right?
[18:50] ---
    I think so.
[18:52] ---
    But they were still eaten.
[18:54] ---
    That's why we need to get out
[18:55] ---
    and find a bigger space
[18:56] ---
    for better chances of survival!
[18:58] ---
    But…
[18:59] ---
    Come with me!
[19:01] ---
    Monks don't speak falsehoods.
[19:08] ---
    Moya, you don't seem like a child.
[19:12] ---
    Ah…
[19:13] ---
    I'll try the window again.
[19:15] ---
    Help me out.
[19:39] ---
    I'll go out first.
[19:40] ---
    If it's safe, you should follow!
