    One,
[00:25] ---
    two,
[00:26] ---
    three,
[00:28] ---

[00:32] ---
    Sixteen,
[00:34] ---
    seventeen...
[00:36] ---
    You have time to be lost in thought,
[00:37] ---
    but no time to feed the chickens.
[00:39] ---
    She was the one who wanted to
    raise you guys in the first place.
[00:46] ---
    Mr. Liu, you're back.
[00:48] ---
    The drying rack is broken.
[00:49] ---
    Can you fix it soon,
[00:50] ---
    otherwise we can't hang
    our clothes out to dry.
[00:51] ---
    You have no money to buy clothes,
    so what is there to dry?
[00:55] ---
    The fox is stealing chickens again.
[01:14] ---
    Rolly, weren't you going to be a vegetarian?
[01:17] ---
    Why can't you control yourself?
[01:20] ---
    Playing dead is useless.
[01:21] ---
    Let's talk about the value of life.
[01:24] ---
    Stop arguing, you guys.
[01:25] ---
    I'm counting.
[01:28] ---
    Counting how much money we have left?
[01:30] ---
    Counting how many spirits
    I've treated so far.
[01:33] ---
    You're so relaxed.
[01:35] ---
    Rather than counting spirits,
[01:36] ---
    why not worry about the Fairies Album?
[01:38] ---
    Why are you not in a hurry at all?
[01:41] ---
    I am.
[01:42] ---
    I'm anxious and depressed every day,
[01:43] ---
    and I can't sleep at night.
[01:44] ---
    Look, dark circles under
    my eyes are coming out.
[01:48] ---
    You can't sleep, yet can snore so loudly.
[01:51] ---
    My body is asleep,
[01:52] ---
    but my soul is still thinking.
[01:55] ---
    Has that thinking resulted in a solution?
[01:58] ---
    Not even a clue.
[01:59] ---
    Just that the Fairies Album was sealed away for
    ages before, and it loves the hustle and bustle.
[02:03] ---
    It must be in the capital.
[02:04] ---
    Let's just take our time to find it.
[02:05] ---
    Fine, you take your time to find it.
[02:08] ---
    But we can't even pay next month's rent.
[02:11] ---
    I have no money, so it's useless to tell me.
[02:14] ---
    If the one in Tao City knew that
    the Fairies Album was missing,
[02:17] ---
    what would happen?
[02:18] ---
    You wouldn't dare--
[02:21] ---
    Try me.
[02:23] ---
    You--
[02:27] ---
    I'll find a job tomorrow, okay?
[02:31] ---
    That's more like it.
[02:33] ---
    A reward for you.
[02:35] ---
    I saw an inn in the marketplace
    called Tingfenglou earlier.
[02:39] ---
    There were a lot of job
    adverts hanging inside.
[02:41] ---
    You can go check it out.
[02:43] ---
    I'm watching you.
[02:48] ---
    Tingfenglou.
[02:56] ---
    Rolly!

    Includes room and board.
[03:43] ---
    Excuse me, excuse me.
[03:52] ---
    The House of Si is also recruiting.
[03:54] ---
    Yeah. It's rare to see their sign.
[03:56] ---
    Let's give it a go.
[03:57] ---
    No thanks.
[03:58] ---
    Those two brothers in the House
    of Si are not good people.
[04:00] ---
    The living devils are not a joke.
[04:02] ---
    That's true.
[04:04] ---
    Let's check the others out.
[04:06] ---
    The House of Si is recruiting a handyman.
SIGN    House of Si Recruiting a handyman Salary negotiable Si
[04:08] ---
    It can be a man or woman.
[04:10] ---
    Good feeders are preferred,
[04:12] ---
    with a generous salary.
[04:13] ---
    If you're interested, go to Qingmeng River
    House of Si and find Housekeeper Miao.
[04:17] ---
    Mister,
[04:20] ---
    what sort of a place is the House of Si?
[04:21] ---
    Why don't you guys want to work there?
[04:24] ---
    Miss, you're not from around here, are you?
[04:27] ---
    I haven't been here for long.
[04:29] ---
    I don't have much money,
[04:30] ---
    and wanted to find a good job.
[04:33] ---
    That House of Si is not a good place to be.
[04:36] ---
    You should go somewhere else.
[04:37] ---
    Not a good place...
[04:39] ---
    Could it be that they exploit people?
[04:42] ---
    There are two living devils in there.
[04:43] ---
    Do you think it is a good place?
[04:45] ---
    Living devils...
[04:46] ---
    What on earth is this House of Si doing?
[04:53] ---
    People here don't dare to
    talk about the House of Si.
[04:56] ---
    But seeing as you're new here, I'll tell you.
[04:59] ---
    It's said that the two brothers
    in charge of the House of Si
[05:02] ---
    are not doing a proper business.
[05:04] ---
    Some bloodthirsty people often
    go in and out of the house.
[05:07] ---
    It's very scary.
[05:08] ---
    If you have a difficult problem,
    the House of Si will sort it out.
[05:10] ---
    Naturally, there's a lot of shady
    business involving fighting and killing.
[05:14] ---
    Even the authorities are
    a bit afraid of them.
[05:17] ---
    In conclusion, I advise you
    to not even consider it.
[05:20] ---
    Rivalry grudges are most terrifying.
[05:22] ---
    You don't know when an enemy would show up.
[05:24] ---
    It brings disaster!
[05:25] ---
    I see.
[05:26] ---
    Is the family rich?
[05:28] ---
    Yes, they are.
[05:30] ---
    Then I'm relieved.
[05:32] ---
    How do I get to Qingmeng River?
[05:34] ---
    You will go?
[05:35] ---
    Do you know how dangerous that place is?
[05:37] ---
    The devil will call you to die at midnight.
[05:38] ---
    You won't live to see dawn.
[05:40] ---
    The House of Si is Hell.
[05:42] ---
    You go in with a life,
[05:43] ---
    but come out barely alive.
[05:45] ---
    That's right.
[05:46] ---
    How can she go?
[05:47] ---
    Yeah, yeah!
[05:49] ---
    Mister, I'm very poor.
[05:52] ---
    My brother doesn't treat me well,
[05:53] ---
    doesn't give me food nor clothes.
[05:55] ---
    He even said that if I can't
    find a job today and earn money,
[05:59] ---
    then he'll kick me out of the house!
[06:03] ---
    Fine.
[06:05] ---
    You go out from Wanshengmen,
[06:06] ---
    head west for seven or eight miles,
[06:08] ---
    and you'll see a boundary stone with
    "Qingmeng River" engraved on it.
[06:09] ---
    Qingmeng River
[06:11] ---
    Then cross a stone bridge,
[06:12] ---
    go through a bamboo forest,
[06:14] ---
    and then you'll see the House of Si.
[06:34] ---
    House of Si
[06:40] ---
    It's so quiet.
[06:51] ---
    Who's there?
[06:55] ---
    I'm looking for Housekeeper Miao.
[06:56] ---
    I saw that you're recruiting
    handyman at the Tingfenglou.
[06:58] ---
    I'm here to apply!
[07:07] ---
    I am Housekeeper Miao.
[07:09] ---
    You're here to apply to be a handyman, Miss?
[07:12] ---
    Didn't it say that it
    could be a man or woman?
[07:14] ---
    That's right.
[07:15] ---
    Please come in.
[07:40] ---
    This... is Hell?
[07:53] ---
    Please.
[08:14] ---
    Sansi.
[08:17] ---
    Where's your father?
[08:26] ---
    So he went out shopping.
[08:27] ---
    Okay. Please continue.
[08:39] ---
    This is our stables.
[08:41] ---
    The horses inside are treasures which the
    young master has collected from around the world.
[08:46] ---
    We're recruiting a handyman at this time
[08:47] ---
    mainly to feed the horses.
[08:50] ---
    Pardon me, I haven't asked
    you your name or age yet.
[08:54] ---
    Where are you from?
[08:57] ---
    Right...
[08:58] ---
    My surname is Tao.
[09:00] ---
    Tao as in "peach".
[09:01] ---
    My name...
[09:03] ---
    ...is Yaoyao. Tao Yaoyao.
[09:06] ---
    I'll be 17 this year.
[09:08] ---
    I'm from the Sichuan Province.
[09:09] ---
    I'm going to live in the
    capital in the future.
[09:11] ---
    Tao Yaoyao.
[09:14] ---
    It seems like Miss Tao is the
    youngest daughter in the family.
[09:19] ---
    Yes, yes.
[09:21] ---
    That's right.
[09:22] ---
    Do you only need the handyman
    to feed the horses?
[09:25] ---
    But don't underestimate this job.
[09:27] ---
    These horses are the young master's favorite.
[09:30] ---
    They need careful feeding.
[09:32] ---
    You can't make a mistake.
[09:35] ---
    Has this girl been feeding the horses before?
[09:38] ---
    Yes.
[09:39] ---
    Her name is Ding Sansi.
[09:41] ---
    She and her father have been at the
    House of Si for over ten years.
[09:43] ---
    None of the horses that they've looked
    after have ever had a problem.
[09:47] ---
    Years ago, her father arranged a
    marriage for her in their hometown.
[09:51] ---
    Both of them have decided
    to resign and go home.
[09:53] ---
    We can't force them to stay.
[09:55] ---
    That's why we put up a notice at
    Tingfenglou to find a replacement.
[09:59] ---
    She can't speak, yet she can
    look after so many horses.
[10:02] ---
    She's amazing.
[10:04] ---
    Housekeeper Miao, you've told me so much.
[10:07] ---
    Have you decided that I'm taking over?
[10:08] ---
    Having put up our notice,
[10:10] ---
    you're the only one who have come to apply.
[10:12] ---
    It can only be you.
[10:14] ---
    Am I really the only one?
[10:17] ---
    Maybe other people are
    afraid of the young master.
[10:21] ---
    Miss Tao, if you're willing to work here,
[10:24] ---
    let's sign the contract now.
[10:30] ---
    Then why are they afraid
    of your young master?
[10:32] ---
    He has a bad temper.
[10:35] ---
    But don't worry,
[10:36] ---
    you usually won't have many
    chances to meet the young master.
[10:44] ---
    I just don't know the salary...
[10:46] ---
    You don't need to worry about that either.
[10:48] ---
    The young master is never
    short of money for wages.
[10:55] ---
    Yes, yes, yes!
[10:56] ---
    I'm happy to feed the horses.
[10:58] ---
    According to the rules of the House of Si,
[11:00] ---
    the initial contract is for half a year.
[11:02] ---
    Work for ten days and get a day off.
[11:03] ---
    Three meals and accommodation are included.
[11:04] ---
    Usually if there are no special reasons,
[11:06] ---
    do not leave the House of Si.
[11:08] ---
    Si
[11:09] ---
    If both parties are satisfied when the
    contract expires, it can be extended.
[11:12] ---
    Okay. I'll go back and pack my stuff.
[11:14] ---
    I'll be back tomorrow morning for work.
[11:17] ---
    I found a job to earn money within a day.
[11:19] ---
    I don't have to carry on
    living in that shabby house,
[11:21] ---
    and don't have to eat Mr. Liu's cooking.
[11:24] ---
    Life is suddenly looking bright!
[11:55] ---
    A spirit.
[12:09] ---
    This House of Si is quite interesting.
[12:21] ---
    Dear husband!
[12:22] ---
    From now on, our family will
    rely on you for support
[12:25] ---
    Be back on time!
[12:27] ---
    We'll miss you...
[12:29] ---
    ...your wages.
[12:32] ---
    You old monster...
[12:34] ---
    Get struck by lightning!
[12:37] ---
    You've already met Sansi.
[12:38] ---
    I'm her father, Ding Senior.
[12:40] ---
    Learn well.
[12:41] ---
    Later on, the stables will depend on you.
[12:53] ---
    As the saying goes, you
    can't please everyone.
[12:55] ---
    More so for the horses in the House of Si.
[12:58] ---
    They have different temperaments and tastes.
[13:01] ---
    This one loves to eat dry things.
[13:02] ---
    That one eats sweet things.
[13:04] ---
    That one over there likes salty things.
[13:05] ---
    Add two spoons of salt
    for that one over there!
[13:43] ---
    Hurry up!
[13:44] ---
    Feeding time is almost over.
[13:47] ---
    Be quicker!
[13:48] ---
    There are other horses to feed.
[13:49] ---
    Don't delay!
[13:56] ---
    I'm being overworked.
[13:58] ---
    It's like I'm a horse!
[14:09] ---
    Father has always been quite strict.
[14:12] ---
    It's tiring for you.
[14:14] ---
    I'm fine, I'm fine.
[14:15] ---
    I'm a newbie and should practice more.
[14:19] ---
    That's right.
[14:20] ---
    It's usually just you and your father here.
[14:23] ---
    I heard Housekeeper Miao say that
    you've been here for ten years.
[14:25] ---
    Then weren't you seven or eight
    when you came to the House of Si?
[14:30] ---
    Is this House of Si really
    as scary as the rumors say?
[14:39] ---
    You're usually at the stables.
[14:41] ---
    So you don't go out and have fun?
[14:46] ---
    You have to look after the horses,
[14:48] ---
    otherwise the young master won't be happy.
[14:50] ---
    Surely you don't need to
    watch them all the time.
[14:52] ---
    The young master is really unreasonable.
[15:00] ---
    Fine, fine.
[15:02] ---
    I misunderstood him.
[15:03] ---
    The young master has few
    friends and likes horses.
[15:05] ---
    He's closer to horses than people, right?
[15:08] ---
    Speaking of which...
[15:09] ---
    You understand your young master very well.
[15:33] ---
    So it's like that.
[15:34] ---
    He's really handsome.
[16:24] ---
    Given that the eldest young master
    hasn't returned from his trip,
[16:26] ---
    I'm guessing that this is
    the second young master.
[16:31] ---
    Thanks to you,
[16:33] ---
    I finally met our second-in-command.
[16:35] ---
    He's dashing, graceful, and elegant.
[16:38] ---
    He's not like the rumored
    devil who exploits people.
[16:42] ---
    Do you like him?
[16:49] ---
    What?
[16:52] ---
    Hey, if you like him then you like him.
[16:53] ---
    What's so shameful about that?
[17:01] ---
    Fine, fine.
[17:02] ---
    I won't say any more.
[17:05] ---
    But what is his name?
[17:23] ---
    Kuanglan
[17:28] ---
    The name doesn't match the person.
[17:30] ---
    He's clearly calmer than a rock.
[17:41] ---
    Just have a peek at first light.
[17:43] ---
    You should at least let him know.
[17:49] ---
    I'm leaving to get married.
[17:53] ---
    I'm not a good match for the young master,
[17:55] ---
    so I won't get any improper ideas.
[17:58] ---
    Being able to meet him...
[18:00] ---
    ...is enough.
[18:08] ---
    Then...
[18:10] ---
    Is the guy in your hometown a good person?
[18:18] ---
    Then that's good.
[18:21] ---
    This being the case,
[18:22] ---
    then let's see things through.
[19:11] ---
    Hey, what is there to be embarrassed about?
[19:13] ---
    You're just having a look.
[19:15] ---
    As they say, it's impolite
    to not reciprocate.
[19:17] ---
    You've helped me so much.
[19:18] ---
    I'll definitely help you.
[19:19] ---
    I'm telling you.
[19:20] ---
    I've thought of a way of making
    the stepping stone more stable.
[19:23] ---
    Come try it out.
[19:31] ---
    You don't need to say more.
[19:32] ---
    The young master really
    is a feast for the eyes.
[19:34] ---
    I can watch him for three bowls,
[19:36] ---
    no, thirty bowls of rice.
[20:30] ---
    It's really nice and warm.
[21:14] ---
    Is it fun to get beaten up every day?
[21:15] ---
    What's it got to do with you?
[21:16] ---
    You're disturbing my sleep.
[21:18] ---
    Wait, you can see me?
[21:21] ---
    Otherwise do you think
    I'm speaking to a tree?
[21:24] ---
    You Yun Yang's habits really never change.
[21:26] ---
    You like living in trees
    no matter where you are.
[21:37] ---
    You actually know me.
[21:38] ---
    Who are you?
[21:46] ---
    My surname is Tao.
[21:47] ---
    Tao...
[21:49] ---
    You're Tao from Tao City--
[21:51] ---
    Don't wake up people who are asleep.
[21:55] ---
    Help me get my wing back.
[21:56] ---
    I urgently need another wing.
[21:58] ---
    First tell me where your wing went.
[22:03] ---
    In the autumn, it's easy for
    us Yun Yang to lose feathers,
[22:06] ---
    like a tree losing leaves.
[22:08] ---
    I know.
[22:09] ---
    But the question is, did
    you even lose your wings?
[22:13] ---
    I wanted to practice before,
[22:14] ---
    and decided to fly ten laps
    around the stables every day.
[22:17] ---
    One day I flew too ferociously,
    and a wing fell off.
[22:25] ---
    You're a doctor!
[22:27] ---
    Should you be laughing at a patient?!
[22:29] ---
    Fine, fine, fine.
[22:30] ---
    I won't laugh.
[22:32] ---
    Then where did your wing fall off?
[22:34] ---
    It's been taken back by a
    mouse spirit to make a nest.
[22:36] ---
    I ask for it every day but
    it won't give it back,
[22:38] ---
    so I go and trouble it every day.
[22:41] ---
    Are you going to trouble it,
[22:42] ---
    or get beaten up?
[22:45] ---
    If only I hadn't lost a
    wing and lost my powers,
[22:47] ---
    it wouldn't be a match for me.
[22:49] ---
    Wait until spring and your
    new wing will grow out.
[22:52] ---
    Why bother fighting with a mouse?
[22:53] ---
    It would be too late.
[22:55] ---
    If I don't get my wings back
    by the start of next month,
[22:57] ---
    Ding Sansi will never get a chance
    to talk to the second young master.
[23:01] ---
    You're in a rush to get
    your wings back for her?
[23:06] ---
    Actually, I followed her here.
[23:09] ---
