"Don't Ask 莫问 (Mo Wen)" by Zhang Han 张翰
♫ Within a picture, the characters appear strong. ♫
♫ Withered flowers dance lightly stirring up the water of emotions silently. ♫
♫ Don't ask who weighs more in the heart. ♫
♫ Take up a pen and tell a thousand turbulent stories. ♫
♫ The rainbow streak across the horizon. ♫
♫ Does it know your whereabouts? ♫
♫ Pain spread throughout the land. ♫
♫ How long do we have to wait until it turns cold? ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ Don't ask why I broke up the relationship in an instant. ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ This hurdle is difficult for people to pass even in a thousand years. ♫
♫ I wish. I hope. ♫
♫ Don't ask for whom the lonely zither is playing for. ♫

The Classic of Mountains and Seas - Legend of the Scarlet Shadow
Episode 26
Royal guards! Protect the king!
Don't move!
Who would mind having too many women? I want both.
Chi Yu is the Azure Dragon Heart mansion.
His name is Xin Yue Hu.
Xin Yue Hu,
will only, under emergency situations,
take over the Vermilion Star Mansion.
Hurry! Get the key!
Hurry! Let's go!
-It looks like we've come just in time.-Where is Su Mo?
Su Mo? She's naturally with your good brother Chi Yu.
But, I don't know if she can live past today.
I'm afraid it won't be that easy to find her!
A dumb little kid? I don't fight with kids!
Dumb little kid? Even a dumb little kid can beat you!
Come come come!
You acutally have a lot of brute force.
Big Brother Shangguan!
You're still such a wimp.
Do you know me?
If I didn't remember wrong,
you should be twenty years old this year.
Xiao Bing.
You really know me? Hurry and tell me!
Just what is my name? Where is my home?
Where have we met? Tell me!
What? You've forgotten everything?
Su Shui!
Is it still not clear now?
This is the real me.
I should have killed you long ago.
That way, Mother and Hong Tai wouldn't have died.
Chi Yu!
Only now do I know the true meaning of this character.
I need to kill to live.
In regards to the people with bad intentions,
I...am disaster for them.
I am the Azure Dragon heart mansion Xin Yue Hu.
Chi Yu is already dead.
But you don't need to worry.
I'll send you to go find him right now.
Chi Yu! Have you gone crazy?
How are you doing? Quite heartbroken?
The one you love wants to kill you!
What meaning is there for you to live any longer?
Come. Let me help you!
Xiao Bing!
It was actually you? You're becoming increasingly brave.
You dare to block a sword now?
Alright then. Then I'll let you two die together!
Xiao Bing!
Big Brother Chi Yu, are you okay?
Taoist Lu Ya of North Sea Mud Carp Fish Island arrived just now.
That child took away all of those Vermilion Bird star mansions.
Who were they just now? -I'll go crush them.
Based on your ability?
I'm afraid you won't even be able to get up North Sea Mud Carp Fish Island.
-You-!-Enough!
Things are already so. What use is there to be angry?
Isn't there still someone of the Vermilion Bird here?
I haven't fought satisfyingly.
Come! Let's fight again!
A person of the Vermilion Bird? Where?
The only thing I see is the Azure Dragon's heart mansion.
He is also the king of Green Hills, Chi Yu.
He is the Xin Yue Hu we have to find.
It is the last star mansion we have to find.
You are the Azure Dragon heart mansion? My protector?
What is it? You're not happy?
I'm very happy! It's just...
It's just that you didn't think that a star mansion of the Vermilion Bird
would become a star mansion of the Azure Dragon?
A lot of people here don't understand my identity.
But that's fine.
We can take it slow.
Fu'er, let's fine a quieter place.
You must have a lot of things you want to say to me.
Right?
Baili Han, you are indeed amazing.
Everyone has been manipulated by you.
Brother Bing Yi, you're exaggerating.
I've told you before. I only want things to go naturally.
The Vermilion Bird's Chi Yu became the Azure Dragon's Xin Yue Hu.
How could that be within my plans?
However, I can understand your anger.
Love has to be fought for.
No one knows who the winner is until the end.
Right?
You have no right to talk to me about love!
Right! I don't understand love.
But it's enough if you understand.
What is going on? How did a Vermilion Bird become an Azure Dragon?
Are we still fighting the Vermilion Bird or not?
Don't rush. You will meet a real master.
I haven't fought my fill yet!
You can't even beat a kid and you're still hooting here?
That's because he played tricks on me!
If we really fought face to face, he couldn't beat me!
Next time, next time!
There will be a chance for you to show your ability.
Why are you all leaving?
Who am I going to fight with if you all leave?
It seems like you have a lot of questions.
Okay. No matter what you ask,
Today I will answer them all.
You are clearly Chi Yu.
Why do you say that you belong to the Azure Dragon?
I am Chi Yu.
From the moment you returned from the execution site, I was always taking care of you.
Even your wound was bandaged by me.
How could you say you belong to the Azure Dragon?
Fu'er. Do you still not understand now?
Do you believe me now?
But...your body, looks...
That's because we live within one body.
Chi Yu is already dead.
From the moment he killed his father,
he was already dead.
What is it? You can't bear to let him die?
Have you ever thought about if you want that Vermilion Bird star mansion to return
and be together with Su Mo,
or do you want Xin Yue Hu to be together with you?
You like him?
No.
It's just all of these things,
I haven't gotten the matters clear yet.
It's fine. What I have is time.
I can wait for you to slowly accept me.
You will be with me forever, right?
Of course.
Then you like me, right?
What do you think?
No matter if you're Xin Yue Hu or Chi Yu,
the one I want is you.
As long as you stay by my side, it's good.
I'm so happy! Really.
I feel like the pains I suffered in the past
was all worth it for what is going on now.
You are the Azure Dragon heart mansion.
And I am the Mysterious Lady of of the Azure Dragon.
We were fated to be together!
But I still don't dare to believe
that I can be with you like this.
It's just like I'm dreaming!
What is it? Did I hurt you?
Nothing will ever make me feel pain again.
Or make me cry.
In all these years, I've never been as happy as today.
Because I won.
I've never done as I wished like today!
Because I'm free!
I've always been suppressed within his body.
I didn't know how it felt to be happy.
I'm really very happy today!
This is the real me!
What place is this? Just who are you?
-Why did you bring us here?-This is North Sea Mud Carp Fish Island's Peace Temple.
It's the place Taoist Lu Ya cultivates!
Who is Taoist Lu Ya?
Country girl! Country girl, are you okay?
Xiao Bing! Xiao Bing! Xiao Bing! Why is he injured too?
Who hurt them?
-It was Chi Yu.-Chi Yu? How is that possible?
How could Chi Yu hurt Su Mo?
That's right! Just what happened?
He's not Chi Yu. He's Xin Yue Hu.
Xin Yue Hu? What does that mean?
He's not a Vermilion Bird star mansion. He's an Azure Dragon star mansion, Xin Yue Hu.
Azure Dragon star mansion? How could that be?
How could he look exactly the same as Chi Yu?
Don't bother with that now! Saving Su Mo is more important!
Immortal child, is there a way to save Su Mo?
Is her injury serious? When can she wake up?
Her pulse is very strange. Her injury isn't particularly serious.
But inside her body, there seems to be thousands of knots.
Then what do we do? Use my blood! Use my blood to save her!
Do you think your blood can cure any illness?
She isn't in a coma because of blood loss.
What use is your blood?
It's my fault. Taoist Lu Ya!
Taoist Lu Ya will definitely have a way to save her! As long as Su Mo can wake up,
I will promise you any sacrifice!
Sacrifice? Do you think you're buying vegetables on the street?
People of the materialistic world only know to use price
to weigh the entire world.
Immortal child, I, Shangguan Jin, am willing to use my life,
to save her life with mine! I'm begging you, please bring me to see Taoist Lu Ya!
You're injured too! Where are you going?
I won't die from this small injury!
-General.-Shuang'er.
Come. Have some tea.
Shuang'er. Do you hate me?
I've never dared to hate you.
I didn't tell you about Xin Yue Hu and Xiao Yang,
It's not because I don't trust you, but the complete opposite.
I only trust you.
If I told you all my plans,
that would bind your hands, which would not benefit you.
It wouldn't benefit our entire plan either.
Shuang'er. You are my sharp sword.
Only when I need you most,
will I use you.
General, you don't need to explain these things to me.
No matter what you want me to do,
I will do it without hesitation.
Good!
It's just...I suspect Xin Yue Hu.
This person is erratic. Is he really the Heart Mansion?
There's no doubt that he's the Azure Dragon heart mansion.
But he's the highest ruler in Green Hills right now.
Would he willingly be the Azure Dragon's guardian?
He can't be trusted, would he play any more tricks?
Whether or not he is for the Azure Dragon,
we can't tell within a few days.
However, even if he had more plans,
I have ways to deal with him.
But Shuang'er, you must not go bother Xin Yue Hu.
Then...what about the Vermilion Bird people?
We've already found all the star mansions of the Azure Dragon.
Coming up, we have to summon the Azure Dragon.
Destroying the people of the Vermilion Bird will happen sooner or later.
Since they have people to save them, then let them live a few more days.
But the one supporting them is Taoist Lu Ya.
Taoist Lu Ya?
He's just an old man who doesn't know the times!
Think about it. When we get the Azure Dragon's power,
what can't be done?
Then...what about Sun Ju? How do you intend to use him?
Sun Ju is still recovering from his injuries.
However, this time,
he will decide what the outcome is.
Shuang'er. Come here.
Don't worry. He will decide the outcome this time,
but I won't fully trust him.
Perhaps he has planned far ahead,
But currently, based on his ability,
he will never be dangerous to me.
So, you must keep an eye on him for me.
General, then what about Xiao Yang?
That person is just thick-headed, no need for caution.
I solely wanted to fight the most amazing Shangguan Jin!
But I didn't think that a child held me back!
I really feel sullen!
What are you laughing at?
Are you ridiculing me for my sub-par skills?
Actually, you're looking for the wrong person.
The most amazing person isn't among the Vermilion Bird people.
Is that so? Then where is he?
He's by your side.
It's Baili Han.
That's impossible. I've seen his swordplay before.
It's nothing special.
But it's because you haven't seen his true ability.
True ability?
His true ability,
will only come out when he meets a true master.
What do you mean?
You're saying that when he fought those Vermilion Bird people,
he didn't bring out his true ability?
They're not worthy.
I think among all these people, only you,
can force him to bring out his true ability.
Okay! I will go challenge him right now!
Slow down! Look at you, you're always in such a rush!
With a personality like that, how can you do something big?
I can't wait anymore!
Let me finish talking. Come, sit!
Then hurry and say it! I'm not that patient!
To Baili Han, what is the most important?
It's summoning the Azure Dragon.
We are all the Azure Dragon star mansions now.
How could he bring out his full power to meet your challenge?
Wouldn't that be comrades killing each other?
Then what do we do?
We are all Azure Dragon star mansions.
This is fate! It can't be changed!
What if he won't fight me for life?
I would have to wait until the next life!
I have a way,
to make you and Baili Han have a real fight.
However, you have to listen to me.
Then hurry and say it! What method do you have?
I can't tell you first.
Because you're too rash. A chance like this,
there's only one. If we miss it, it'll be gone.
You're making me so anxious!
You can choose not to listen to me.
However, if you do that, I'm afraid you'll never have the chance
to have a fight with the real best fighter.
Fine then! I promise you!
But you have to hurry up!
I have nowhere to use all of my power!
Then you can find the people by Baili Han's side to practice.
For example, that newly arrived Xin Yue Hu.
However, you must remember.
We are all Azure Dragon star mansions.
You can have a little competition. If either of you get hurt,
it will be bad for the other person.
Okay!
If I didn't remember wrong,
You should be twenty years old this year, right?
Xiao Bing
Come, eat some, it's fresh.
Come, I'll peel one for you.
Xiao Bing! Save me!
It's about done. Retreat!
Thank you all, little brothers!
Little brother?
We're much older than you! How rude!
Let's go!
I'm so scared!
Did you see? They disappeared in a poof!
Then appeared in another poof!
What kind of ghost are they?
Why are you asking this now?
I'm curious! Kids are naturally curious!
You-!
Su Shui said Chi Yu isn't Chi Yu.
He's the Heart Moon Fox. What does that mean?
He said they look exactly the same too.
Then where did Chi Yu go?
Could it be when you were all locked up, Chi Yu and Heart Moon Fox were switched?
It couldn't be that the Heart Moon Fox killed Chi Yu!
Also, why does that Heart Moon Fox
know so much about all of us?
We don't know either!
When we were locked up, only the Azure Dragon people could see Chi Yu.
One time, we wanted to sneak out to see him.
But in the end, we were stopped by the Azure Dragon people.
They wouldn't fight with us either.
They acted so polite with their speech.
It couldn't even rile us up!
Perhaps it's because they were in Chi Yu's territory,
so they didn't dare to rashly act.
It's because of this that we didn't make a fuss.
That's right, Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bing?
Xiao Bing!
Oh no oh no oh no!
He doesn't have a heartbeat!
Didn't they say he'd wake up in a bit?
Xiao Bing! Don't die, Xiao Bing!
Kids! Kids! Is anyone there?
What kind of dumb magic is that? Xiao Bing's dead!
Dumb little kids!
You dumb child, you dare to suspect my ability?
Shut up! Enjoy it well!
In the laws of the Heavens, one must decrease what is excessive to supplement those that are lacking.
But in the laws of humans, that's not the case.
It is instead to oppress those who are lacking to continue making those who are wealthy more wealthy.
Who will be able to ask those with excess to support mankind? Only the enlightened one.
I, Shangguan Jin has decided to put in all I have to help the world.
to help the world and walk the path of righteousness.
However, the matter is difficult and I lack strength. I have harmed many people with me.
Only the Enlightened one do accomplishments and achievements without asking for recognition.
He is not willing to display his brilliance.
Shangguan Jin, this is your fated calamity.
But this calamity,
Su Mo shouldn't have to suffer through it.
You're talking about this girl?
Her injury is already healed.
Healed?
Then...why isn't she awake yet?
The body's injury is healed but the heart's is not.
The dream mirror can cause people to always be hypnotized,
it is caused by being unable to accept reality, and constantly wishing for something.
I hope Priest can help me.
She isn't waking up now,
because she isn't willing to wake up.
No one can wake up those who are living within their dreams.
Living within her dreams?
There is joy in her dreams, there are people who would rather stay there than face reality.
So they would rather let their spirit
live within their own dreams.
Cruel reality...
Perhaps,
from Peach Blossom Hollow, Su Mo wasn't willing to take up all of this.
Shangguan Jin.
Are you willing to let the Mysterious Lady of the Vermilion Bird stay within her dreams?
If she can live happily within her dreams,
if she can live peacefully,
how could I have the heart to wake her up?
To have her face this terrible reality?
Right now Chi Yu,
has changed immensely.
He doesn't think of past relationships.
Even if Mo'er wakes up,
it is only to face this hopeless and cruel reality.
If someone has to face this reality,
then let me, who is the cause of all this,
to go face all of this alone.
Have you decided?
For Jiu Li's people,
I definitely cannot watch
Baili Han do as he wishes.
Even if I have to give up my life, I must fight with the Azure Dragon.
But this battle,
might be a hard and cruel one.
Mo'er.
Let her stay within her dreams.
Don't have her face this pain anymore.
The dreams are beautiful.
But flowers are not flowers.
fog may not be fog, everything is empty air. It is destined to last a short while.
Taoist,
what do you mean?
You're saying if Su Mo stays within her dreams,
what will happen to her?
Shangguan Jin, what type of people do you think can just stay within their dreams?
With your title of Jiu Li's Lord,
You don't even know this?
Only dead people can stay forever within their dreams!
Dead people?
Humans are living creatures.
everyone has different joys and tears in their lives,
Only a dead person can appear in someone else's dream
when he is being missed.
Other times, it is just to fall into a bottomless pit.
Child, you are becoming more brazen.
My mouth was fast, I'm sorry.
Taoist!
Is that true?
If Mo'er isn't woken up, she'll die?
If your heart wants to wake up the Mysterious Lady,
it is all up to you, Shangguan Jin.
Is it sleeping forever within her dreams,
or waking up to face reality?
Even if the dreams are more beautiful,
everyone still has to wake up.
The reality may be harsh,
but I will definitely protect her well.
Taoist! I'm begging you!
I'm begging you! Please wake up Mo'er!
Go take a look in her dreams.
Look at what she is running away from.
Look at what her heart is focused on.
Go inside her dreams?
Timing & Subtitles brought to you by the Dancing Fingers @ Viki
Mo'er.
No matter what happens, let me protect you.
I will definitely make you happy.
You must wake up.
In the world of dreams, it is an hour on earth.
When the sun sets, all is lost.
I have to return to reality before the sun sets.
But within a dream, is there day and night?
changes in seasons?
How do I judge the world of dreams?
The sun, moon, stars, and time have existed since ancient time and will exist forever.
When the moon is in the middle of the sky, it is noon.
when the sun sets it is the morning.
The moon and sun within the dreams,
are also the same as in reality.
Is that waht you mean?
Then I only need to, before the sun sets,
or before the moon rises,
bring Mo'er back, then she can wake up?
Whether dream or reality, the lie or the truth,
depends on the desire of the person who's making the dream.
Hiding from the worries of life is a dream,
corrupting one's aspiration, confusing one's willpower, and, more importantly, harming one's health.
Shangguan Jin,
If you can't discern between dream and reality,
you will also be trapped by the dreams and cannot wake up.
I will definitely bring you out.
Mo'er!
Don't tell the waiter here!
What did you call me just now?
Mo'er.
Are you well?
You're so strange!
How do you know my name?
You don't look like you're from Peach Blossom Hollow.
You don't remember?
Remember what?
It's nothing.
You still haven't told me how you know my name.
It was from a very long time ago,
that you told me yourself.
We've met a long time ago?
Why don't I remember?
What's your name?
Jiu Li's Shangguan Jin.
Jiu Li's Shangguan Jin?
You don't remember at all?
I'm sorry, I really don't remember.
But, why did you come here today?
I came to see a friend.
A friend? What's your friend's name, where does he live?
I grew up in Peach Blossom Hollow, there's nothing I don't know about!
But I'm afraid she doesn't know what happened to her.
Okay then, then forget it.
I can't help you anyway.
Why hasn't the storyteller come yet today?
I'm not waiting anymore, I'm going home.
Sir, I'm leaving first.
Why are you following me?
I...
Why do you keep following me?
It's not that. We're just walking on the same path by coincidence.
By coincidence?
You're so strange. There must be something wrong with you.
Speak! What do you want?
I came to see the tribe leader.
Why are you looking for my old dad?
Because I promised the tribe leader that I'd take care of someone.
But I didn't take care of that person.
So, I want to go apologize to him.
Is it like that?
It's a shame, Old dad isn't at home today.
Then where did the tribe leader go?
Today one of our relatives outside the Hollow just got married. He went to their wedding.
Will he come back today?
Will he come back?
He probably will.
Can I wait for him here?
If it's not convenient, I won't go inside the house.
Come on, let's go in to wait together.
Wait here a moment.
Okay, that's fine.
Why won't this door open?
Is something very important inside this room?
I think there's something important inside.
What is it?
I forget.
That's right.
On this entire road, I discovered that Peach Blossom Hollow is all quiet.
It's like no one is living here.
That's because of your timing.
Today there is an event, all the people went.
The old people and children went too?
The flowers bloomed in the spring, so the old people all went up the mountain to take a bath.
There is a saying that the spring is a holy one, it can provide longevity.
The children went too?
The children?
Look at our Peach Blossom Hollow.
In such a huge mountainous place, it's best for children to hide.
So, don't run around recklessly in the mountains.
Then...why didn't you go with them?
Didn't I already tell you?
I secretly went to listen to the storyteller.
Why do you have so many questions?
It's nothing.
I just feel like Peach Blossom Hollow is a little too quiet.
So I was a bit curious.
Of course. Our Peach Blossom Hollow is the best place in this world.
Then...
do you remember Chi Yu?
Chi Yu?
King.
I have something important to discuss with you.
The thing we agreed on...
The first time we're meeting, nice to meet you, Heart Moon Fox.
You know me?
I don't only know you.
I also know that you and Chi Yu have the same body.
In all these years, besides when the fortuneteller found out once,
you've only appeared when Chi Yu's mother died.
Chi Yu controlled this body during the rest of the time. And you,
were only the shadow behind him.
Why?
Why do you know so much about my matters?
Of course.
Because I want to help you.
You want to help me?
Or do you want me to help you?
Of course, I need your power.
However,
if you want to escape from Chi Yu,
only I can help you do that.
Then what is the requirement?
Kill the Vermilion Bird.
Summon the Azure Dragon.
Of course I have to kill the Vermilion Bird!
But whether or not I want to help you summon the Azure Dragon,
depends on my mood.
Summoning the Azure Dragon is your destiny.
It probably isn't intelligent to fight against your destiny.
You should know that very well.
You should make good use of your time to make a decision.
If you wait any longer,
Chi Yu will take your body back. If that time arrives,
it will be hard to take the body back.
Fine! I promise you!
I will take up the responsibility as the Azure Dragon star mansion!
