Crossing Hero~Episode 23~
Ke Shang.
Director Yang died.
Director Yang died?
Hurry and watch the news. Hurry.
Hurry and turn on the news.
Reporter Cai Jia Jia is reporting here to you live.
Right now, the worldwide unexplained symptoms of poisoning
still has no cure, according to the hospitals.
Victims of the poisoning have no medicine to help them.
They can only await for a miracle, or death.
Xu Fei.
Xu Fei!
Hurry and take Locksmith Wan to the hospital.
Remember, during this period of time at the hospital, only speak to a nurse named Long Long.
Brother Yan Jun.
How's Old Pa Wan's current condition?
After Brother Xiao Dong sent him in here last night, he's been having a fever.
Brother Xu started with fever, too.
Long Long,
this is for you.
This is...
The Lipid of Spirit Orchid.
Xiao Dong told me that you have been analyzing it lately.
Brother Peng and I borrowed this. It should help you.
Yes. Compared to the endless analysis of the changes to the blood and lymph,
having the pill is like having the first step to finding the cure.
I'm sorry to bother you.

Xiao Dong Investigative Agency
Senior Master,
this is hot chocolate.
You were awake the whole night. Drinking something hot will help you sleep.
Thank you.
Senior Master, so many people here are helping.
We'll definitely rescue Junior Master.
What I'm most worried about is that Xiao Tian doesn't even want us to save him.
What do you mean?
If Black Tuxedo is really Master General,
he would definitely keep Xiao Tian for himself.
That means Xiao Tian really can't come back anymore.
Junior Master isn't coming back?
How is that possible?
The Lipid of Spirit Orchid is too strong.
If it's not taken regularly, the poison will kill him.
I'm scared that they'll trick Xiao Tian into obeying Black Tuxedo with the Lipid of Spirit Orchid.
It's not like you don't understand Xiao Tian's personality.
Hey, Mo Han.
Do you know where the sutra hall is?
Sutra hall?
Uh, it's where they keep literary works.
Oh, we call it a library.
You want to go there?
I can't just sit here. I must do something.
Why must you go to the sutra hall, though?
I hope that in the sutra hall,
I can find the cure to the Lipid of Spirit Orchid.
I'll go with you!
There's no need.
No one can get in danger anymore. I'll go by myself.
Wait in the Investigative Agency for me.
Okay.
Big Brother,
I slept so well.
It was the best I've slept ever since we came to Hai Bin City.
Good morning, Master Xu.
Criminal, where is this place?
Breakfast has been prepared for you. This is clothing for you.
After you've showered and eaten, change into it.
Xiao Tian,
long time no see.
I saw Master General last night...
Please eat first. I will explain it to you later.
After you fainted last night, Boss personally fed you the medicine,
and I took you to this room.
What Boss?
Ever since I came to Hai Bin City, I know that only bad guys wear these black suits.
Okay, then. You can rest for now.
After you've regained your strength, Boss will explain everything to you.
Even if I have to find a solution step by step,
I can't give up.
Xiao Tian, you have to know right from wrong
until I can find the cure for you.
Miss.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Do you know where I can find a writing brush?
A writing brush? You need to go to a stationary shop for that.
A stationary shop?
Wow, Mo Han. There's so much food.
Mo Han, what are you doing?
Why did you cook so much food?
Everyone has been in a bad mood lately,
and I didn't know how to help,
so I thought that I would cook more food for everyone.
Mo Han, don't worry. You have me.
Also, I'll help Xiao Dong, Yan Jun, and Brother Peng.
I want to help, too!
I want to help you defeat Black Tuxedo.
I want to help Brother Xiao Dong.
I want to help Senior Master find Junior Master, too.
I want to help! I-- I really want to...
Okay, that's enough. Here.
Sit.
Sit down.
Don't think about anything right now. Take a deep breath.
Listen up.
Everything has its order.
Things have to happen one by one. Don't rush it.
There's no problem that can't be solved.
Mo Han.
Mo Han, no matter what happens, I'll protect you.
Okay?
Oh,
turns out you like Pumpkin.
Before she became your "Pumpkin",
she was already my "Dear Younger Sister Mo Han".
Brother Yan Jun, Brother Ke Shang,
are you two okay?
We're fine.
Mo Han, how about I take you home today after work?
Hey, there's no need for that. I'm very familiar with the road to Mo Han's house.
I'll take her back.
Brother Ke Shang, don't you have to work tonight?
Brother Yan Jun can just take me home.
Thank you both for comforting me.
Let's eat.
There's a lot of food. We might not finish.
Okay. Let's eat while it's hot.
Here.
Thank you.
Ke Shang, hurry and eat. You still need to work after this.
That's how you'll have strength to fight bad guys.
Mo Han, drink some soybean milk.
Okay.
Hey, this is good.
- You cooked all this? - Yeah.
What happened on Zheng He's voyage?
Where did his voyages take place?
This book says that Eunuch Zheng He
went on eight voyages,
but in this book of Chinese history, Zheng He's voyages
took place between 1405 and 1430,
and he went on seven voyages.
Is this book stating the truth? On the eigth voyage,
bandits ransacked the fleet on their return, and the leader of those bandits
according to legends, was the retired General Black.
Okay, I understand.
Brother Yan Jun, Long Long said that Old Pa Wang's condition is getting worse.
If it was like how Brother Peng said, since Old Pa Wan doesn't know martial arts,
soon after he gets poisoned, he will...
Can Senior Master even find the cure?
Brother Yan Jun, since Black Tuxedo trusts you so much now,
you should get the cure from him.
Did you know that there is a principal called "equivalent exchange"?
Black Tuxedo only wants to know what is going on in the Investigative Agency right now.
If I were to ask for the Lipid of Spirit Orchid's cure from him,
honestly, I don't know what to trade it with.
Then you can kidnap me and trade me for it!
Dumbo. Do you really think I should do that?
What if something happens to you?
What should we do now, then?
Pumpkin, I actually don't think you need to worry.
Do you know why?
Aren't Xiao Dong and Xian Ting talking to that Officer Wu?
If they can convince Officer Wu,
I feel like your Junior Master
and Old Pa Wan will be okay.
It's okay. Why are you so worried?
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Heroic Team @ Viki
Xiao Tian! You're awake!
Master General!
Your humble servant greets Master General!
You're excused. Hurry and get up. You don't have to do this in such urgent times.
Master General, it really is you!
I didn't think that you came to Hai Bin City, too.
Are you feeling better?
It's much better. Don't worry, General.
I feel like I just walked through the gates of hell.
I'm glad you're okay. Sit down.
General, I'm surprised. I didn't know that you're here, too.
Yes. Aiya, you almost died last night.
I gave you the Lipid of Spirit Orchid at the right time
and saved you from dying.
Turns out you saved my life with the Lipid of Spirit Orchid.
You're my life savior. I'm grateful. Thank you, Master General.
Xiao Tian, you're my beloved guard. When you're in trouble,
how could I not help?
General, you've saved my life.
I'm willing to walk through fire for you without hesitation.
Aiya, it's okay. As long as you follow me,
I will give you the Lipid of Spirit Orchid regularly. It can improve your strength
and it also gives you a longer life.
I'd rather forget martial arts than have a longer life.
I will be satisfied if Miss Xu Fei can just occasionally smile at me.
Xiao Tian, what's wrong?
It's nothing.
Big Brother and I were not able to return,
so it made you
worry for us.
It's okay. Here.
You should just call me Boss.
Don't call me Master General. It's all in the past now.
The past? Why?
General, you'll always be my most respected General.
Master Generals and imperial guards don't exist anymore.
This dynasty has changed.
The Ming Dynasty is no longer in the course of history.
Your Majesty, your subordinates have failed you.
We couldn't do our duties for our mighty Ming.
Xiao Tian, our Ming dynasty
is gone, but you'll always have me.
General, after Big Brother and I
learned the downfall of our Ming dynasty, we were in terrible pain.
Xiao Tian,
if our Ming dynasty were to return one day,
would you be willing to join me
and recover our great territory?
Of course I am. As long as I can bring honor to our mighty Ming,
I am willing to walk through fire without hesitation.
Good.
Xiao Tian, I wasn't wrong about you.
I'll leave the task of reviving our Ming dynasty to you.
Yes, General!
I mean, Boss.
Cheers.
Aiya, very good.
I've committed myself to this land for so many years, carrying the misunderstandings and notoriety of others
just to revive our mighty Ming.
This time, I finally found you.
The revival of our mighty Ming is right around the corner.
Turns out the reason you are suffering on this land
is to recover the Ming dynasty.
That's right. Looks like only you, Xiao Tian,
understand my intentions.
No matter how others judge me, I don't care anymore.
Just let them be.
General, you have such a great foresight.
Then... I'll go back to the Investigative Agency to get my Big Brother.
We can all do this together.
Wait!
Xiao Tian, put this on hold.
On hold? Why?
After Big Brother finds out, he will surely be happy.
Aiya, I've long realized that Peng Ze is disloyal to me.
Big Brother is disloyal?
That's impossible. Big Brother has always been completely loyal to our mighty Ming.
It's true! How about I go get him for you right now?
There's no need for that. I'll give you a chance to test him.
Personally ask him to meet with you and see if he is willing to take the Lipid of Spirit Orchid
and take it right in front of your own eyes,
Master General, I believe that Big Brother will definitely do it.
If he takes the Lipid of Spirit Orchid, I'll welcome him back.
I'm just afraid that he's not willing to come back.
Master General, I promise you that Big Brother will definitely want to return.
Xiao Tian, you haven't forgotten your mission, have you?
Of course not! I will never forget.
Capture thief Hong Xi Dong, and take back the Nine Turns Luminous Night Pearl.
Good. Now that we're all at Hai Bin City,
we still have the same goal, so you must complete the task.
General, I have something that I don't understand.
When Big Brother and I were after Hong Xi Dong,
we suddenly came to Hai Bin City.
How did you get here?
I have a special ability. I can come and go as I please.
As long as you loyally follow me,
you will enjoy endless splendor.
You can have anything you want.
Anything I want?
Then, when the time comes, Miss Xu Fei...
Huh? What girl? After you become successful,
you can have as many girls as you want.
Really? After I become successful,
girls will like me?
Yes, yes. Aiya, ever since the beginning of time, every beautiful girl
has her own hero. Look at all the television shows nowadays.
Every beauty and elegant woman has either
a rich and powerful high official or a billionaire.
Yes, you are right. Back during our Ming dynasty,
only a hero gets a beauty.
Women like powerful heroes.
There's no wrong in following me.
Master General is right. As long as I follow him
and become a hero, I believe that Miss Xu Fei will definitely see me in a different light.
From today onward, Xu Xiao Tian will be your leader.
You must listen to his orders and plans. His orders are my orders.
Don't disobey! Understand?
Yes, sir!
Hey Boss, why am I a leader?
Big Brother is the leader.
Don't worry about it. After Peng Ze joins us, I will have separate plans for him.
Just accept it.
We pledge our allegiance to Boss. We pledge our allegiance to our leader.
If Miss Xu Fei saw how powerful I am right now, she would definitely like me.
Xiao Tian, I'm going to give you a gift.
This phone has the black print.
It's the internationally recognized symbol of darkness.
It's the icon of power, the one and only.
Take good care of it.
Thank you, Boss! In order to revive our mighty Ming,
I will do anything it takes!
Good. Do your job well.
Hello?
Hello? Big Brother.
Xiao Tian, how are you? Where are you?
I'm very well. Don't worry, okay?
Um, it's hard to explain over phone. Let's meet up.
Meet up?
Okay. Where do you want to go?
Okay. See you soon.
Xiao Tian's voice is back to normal. General Black
must have given him the Lipid of Spirit Orchid. Also, he has already been converted by General.
Hello? Miss Mo, Xiao Tian just called me.
I want you to meet up with me.
Senior Master, how did Junior Master sound over the phone?
He sounded fine. It's just that I don't know if I should be glad.
Which also means that Black Tuxedo--
Big Brother! Hey,
- Big Brother! Miss Mo Han!- Junior Master.
Big Brother!
Xiao Tian, why are you dressed like that?
Uh, Master General gave it to me. How is it?
- Master General? - Yeah.
What nonsense did he tell you?
It's true! Master General is in Hai Bin City, too.
On the eighth voyage, bandits ransacked the fleet on their return,
bandits ransacked the fleet on their return, and the leader of those bandits, according to legends,
was the retired General Black.
Big Brother, what's wrong?
I-I really saw Master General.
Greetings, Master General!
I feel like this statue looks a lot like someone I know, too.
Who?
Black Tuxedo.
So that means Master General is in Hai Bin City, too?
I saw him with my own eyes.
So that means Master General is Black Tuxedo.
Junior Master, the Master General you were talking about gave you these clothes?
This stamp is the black-clothed people we've been fighting.
Xiao Tian, I've committed myself to this land for so many years,
carrying the misunderstandings and notoriety of others
just to revive our mighty Ming.
This time, I finally found you.
The revival of our Ming dynasty is just around the corner.
Turns out the reason you are suffering on this land
is to recover the Ming dynasty.
That's right. Looks like only you, Xiao Tian, understand my intentions.
No matter how others judge me, I don't care anymore.
Um, Miss Mo Han, can you help us buy some ice cream?
Junior Master, don't try to send me away. I'm going to listen to you and Senior Master talk.
Hey, Big Brother sit down. I'll tell it to you slowly.
Miss Mo Han, sit.
Big Brother, um, Master General told me to call him "Boss" now.
He even used the Lipid of Spirit Orchid to save me, or else I would have been dead by now.
He's a bad guy! What Lipid of Spirit Orchid? It's clearly poison.
Miss Mo Han, you don't understand.
How did you know that he saved you with the Lipid of Spirit Orchid instead of controlling you?
That Lipid of Spirit Orchid is good. Master General said that.
Is what he says always right?
Xiao Tian, don't forget. He is now the evil and fearsome Black Tuxedo!
Junior Master, he tricked you.
Big Brother, you guys are misunderstanding him.
He's actually doing this to revive our mighty Ming.
He has his own pain.
Xiao Tian, you and I both have seen how much crime he has committed.
Master General isn't himself anymore.
Hurry and come back to the Investigative Agency with me. We'll think of a way to help cure your poisoning, okay?
Aiya, Big Brother. You-You don't want to help Master General revive our Ming dynasty?
Junior Master, you've been tricked by him. That's not his real intention!
Xiao Tian, we've been in Hai Bin City for so long.
This world has already changed completely.
The Ming dynasty was 6 hundred years ago. How would we revive that?
If Master General told you that, he must have other intentions in mind!
Big Brother, turns out you really are disloyal.
When Master General first told me that, I didn't even believe him.
What did you just call me?
Oh, yeah. That...
Master General told me that if you're not disloyal,
- you have to take this Lipid of Spirit Orchid for me to see. - Senior Master, you can't!
I won't eat it.
I already regret not stopping you from eating the Lipid of Spirit Orchid before.
Xiao Tian, back in the Ming dynasty,
Master General was already controlling the imperial guards like that. You get sick every time due to the Lipid of Spirit Orchid!
Come to your senses. Trust me. I'll definitely think of every solution
to help cure your poisoning. Trust me!
Big Brother, you've really changed. You used to be different.
Xiao Tian, calm down. Listen to me.
I won't! Big Brother, I've always followed you
because I respected how you're a real man. A real man needs to stick true to his words!
You promised that we would serve our mighty Ming together. How could you doubt Master General?
I doubted him a long time ago! I didn't take the Lipid of Spirit Orchid because I doubted him.
Big Brother, you and I are both imperial guards. Doubting Master General
is a horrible mistake!
You're the one who is mistaken! As imperial guards, our duty is to defend our land, but you
are following a criminal, and don't know right from wrong!
How do I not know? I'm loyal to our mighty Ming, our Master General!
Master General? After Master General came to Hai Bin City, he has been creating chaos with the black-clothed men.
Don't you know how to think for yourself?
He's doing it to revive our mighty Ming!
Even if that were true, does that mean the black-clothed men can kill innocent people? Does that even make sense?
In order to revive our mighty Ming, it's okay to sacrifice some people.
You're incredibly stubborn!
Big Brother...
I really wished that that slap woke you up.
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Heroic Team @ Viki
You and I have been brothers for so long
and we served our might Ming together, but today,
we have come to this.
Xiao Tian.
This knife was a gift from you to me.
You said that
in times of danger, I can protect myself.
Today, I'm going to return this to you.
From today onward,
you and I
are no longer brothers. We will have no more connections.
Junior Master! Junior Master! Junior Master!
Xiao Tian...
Senior Master, don't be upset. I'll ask Junior Master to come back. Wait for me.
Junior Master, wait! Please listen to me.
Senior Master really does miss you.
Do I not miss him, then? Huh?
Today, Big Brother and I will stop being brothers, and we will end all connection with each other.
You can't do that! Junior Master...
Doing this will make Senior Master very sad.
I'm sad, too!
Brother Xu.
Brother Yan Jun! You came just in time. Please help me convince Junior Master.
I'm begging you.
Brother Xu, long time no see. Are you feeling better?
I'm very good.
Pumpkin, why are you here?
Senior Master and Junior Master had a fight. I came to help convince him.
Let's not worry about that yet. You should leave.
I'm not going unless Junior Master comes with me.
I won't go with you. My Boss already told me
that you rogues should all obey my boss.
Junior Master, what's wrong with you? You used to be different, Wake up, okay?
I haven't changed at all. As an imperial guard,
I swore my allegiance to our mighty Ming!
Junior Master... Junior Master!
Mo Han, let him go. This is Black Tuxedo's headquarter. Come with me.
But Junior Master, he--
Professor Sun.
Do you need something?
Boss wants to see you.
Go tell your boss
that I'm going to take Mo Han back to the Investigative Agency right now. It's that simple.
Boss Black, I'm going to take Mo Han back to the Investigative Agency right now.
We'll talk later.
Let's go. Don't look back.
I'm going to take Mo Han back to the Investigative Agency right now.
We'll talk later.
Boss,
- Professor Sun just-- - I know.
I'll personally ask Sun Yan Jun what he is planning to do next.
Today is Xiao Tian's first mission.
I want you to watch him.
Yes, sir.
I didn't think that Xiao Tian would be so stubborn to this extent.
Even if Xiao Tian keeps taking the Lipid of Spirit Orchid,
he still wouldn't leave the evil and deceptive Master General.
But I can't just not care about this brother I grew up with.
No matter how we fight, I have to try and save Xiao Tian.
Yes, that's the current priority.
Here's the money. Keep the change.
Mister, would you like to take the leftovers?
I'm going to the sutra hall.
But the ticket--
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Heroic Team @ Viki
The amount for next month--
Are you Director Bai?
W-Who are you? Why did you suddenly barge in?
You have been using the Lipid of Spirit Orchid for many years. Did you know that?
What?
The bodyguards you hired are all ours.
Your blood-oxygen levels are dropping because you haven't been using the Lipid of Spirit Orchid lately.
Take it.
Eat it.
Why are you here? Don't hurt my boss.
Interesting.
You're brave.
I admire loyal and courageous people like you.
What's your name?
A-Abraham.
Ah...
Ah Fu Han (Meaning Afghanistan)?
Why are you called Ah Fu Han?
What an ugly name.
Are you from the border area?
It's an English name.
Oh, an English name?
Um... Why do you have an English name? Huh?
Chinese people should have Chinese names, okay?
What's your Chinese name?
Cai... Cai Ah Cai.
See? That's more like it. Ah Cai is such a nice name.
Ah Cai, Ah Cai, and you can give birth to wealth. (Cai means wealth)
It means promotion and fortune, okay?
Stop calling yourself Abraham, okay?
Go by Ah Cai, understand?
Here. Eat it.
Why?
Do I look mean to you?
Huh?
I was naturally born with a kind face.
Hurry and eat it, okay?
It's good stuff.
You even want me to feed you?
D-Do we have to keep taking this medicine?
Yes.
What if we don't continue taking it?
Of course you have to keep taking good things.
Here. Take it.
Yeah.
That's more like it.
I'm here to give you good things, understand?
Then the next pill...
The next one?
If you behave, someone will personally come give it to you, okay?
Brother Yan Jun, what are you doing?
I have to make sure that this place is safe. After I leave, you'll be alone here.
I can protect myself. You don't have to worry.
How could I not worry?
Xian Ting has Xiao Dong's protection. Xu Fei and her Old Pa are at the secret room in the hospital.
Brother Peng ran off to the library, too.
If I were to leave now, what would you do if Black Tuxedo attacks?
I have to call him back here.
You really don't have to!
Stop being so naive, okay?
Did you not see the way K was looking at you just now?
He clearly wants to take you away.
Professor Sun.
Hello?
Brother Peng, this is Yan Jun. Please come back to the Investigative Agency.
I have to go meet up with Black Tuxedo in a little bit. I'm scared to leave Mo Han alone.
I'll be right back.
Thank you.
I finally found some information.
It's such a pity.
Mister, sorry to bother you,
but you can borrow those books home.
Really?
Yes, you can borrow these books home after you create a library card using your ID card.
- ID card? - Yes.
I'm going to borrow these books from you with my identity as an Imperial Guard of the Ming Dynasty.
Do you understand?
Huh?
Very good. I will surely return these to you after I finish.
Mister, wait. You have to check these out.
Are you talking about these books?
That's right.
Miss, didn't I already tell you who I am?
Oh, yeah. You don't have to worry.
Your body will be unlocked after an hour.
The next time I come, don't forget me.
Sorry about this.
Being able to continue borrowing books back to the Investigative Agency
can help find the cure for Xiao Tian.
Where are we going to next?
Director Chen's club.
What's wrong?
You're mad that I didn't give Mo Han to you
so that you can directly threaten Hong Xiao Dong?
You haven't finished talking yet, right? Please continue.
Didn't we make a deal before?
I will give you updates.
You want the Nine Turns Luminous Night Pearl, the Life Turning Instrument, and that key.
All three of these things have to do with Hong Xiao Dong.
But if you were to kidnap Mo Han,
what do you think Xiao Dong would do?
He will just make a trade with me.
I doubt it.
You know clearly
that Locksmith Wan would rather sacrifice his and Xu Fei's life
than to give the key to you.
Even an old man
is so courageous.
What do you think Xiao Dong would do?
