【BM SUB】Mysterious Lotus Casebook 莲花楼 EP2 | Cheng Yi, Joseph Zeng,Xiao Shunyao | iQIYI Malaysia
[English subtitles are available] [Mysterious Lotus Casebook] [Episode 2] -Come with me. -Wait, young man. Since you’re so smart, you must know what is in your best interest. The leader of the Lingshan Sect was killed. I can help you solve the case and pass the test of the Baichuan Court
So that your parents won’t nag at you anymore. How did you know that? How did I know? You haven’t been officially admitted to the Baichuan Court, right? If you had, you would’ve had your own detective badge, right? So you wouldn’t have stolen someone else’s. [Baichuan Court] Keep it covered next time.
The last time I saw you, your socks and shoes were clean. But now, they are dirty. Young Master, you couldn’t even stand cheap tea but have gone days without changing your shoes and socks. It must be because you’ve run out of money, right? The fact that you pawned some of your jade pendants
Shows that your parents don’t support you in becoming a detective. So you sneaked out without telling them. The Baichuan Court has always kept a distance from the court. Fo, Bi, Bai, Shi wouldn’t accept you easily, so you tried to maneuver your way in by making a deal with them.
If you can solve a few cases, they’ll take you in. The weird death of the leader of the Lingshan Sect is your first case. That’s why you’re here. Right? How did you know the leader of the Lingshan Sect was killed? Were you involved? Have you forgotten that when that guy died,
I was held captive in the Hall of Flames? It’s just that the leader of the Lingshan Sect once bought some tonics from me. The kind of tonic that made him more masculine. He wouldn’t pay off the money he owed me. Think about it. Why would someone who was stingy with
Just five taels of silver abandon all his assets for eternity? I can see you’re in a dilemma now. How about this? I’ll help you solve the case and you’ll let me go. What do you think? Thank you for reminding me. You’re right. I haven’t been admitted to the Baichuan Court yet.
Exposing the fake miracle physician may earn me a ticket into it. I sealed two of your acupoints. Few people know how to undo it. You can’t escape. As for whether Leader Wang was murdered, I’ll find it out myself. I don’t need the help of a glib quack. [Lingxu Palace] Go! Get out! Go!
You don’t believe in resurrection but believe in full-body sariras and reincarnation? If you say one more word, I’ll hit the acupoint that can make you mute. Young Master, you finally caught this fake miracle physician. Little girl, I never called myself a miracle physician. So how can I be a fake one?
Ignore him, Li. Where is Happy? They just checked his household record and other documents. There are still five boys left. Let’s go and have a look. [Follow the Sun and Moon] [Changsheng Palace] Folks, fellow disciples, Leader Wang passed away on the 7th of this month.
[Memorial Tablet of Leader Wang of the Lingshan Sect] He left an instruction that the Spiritual Child will take charge of the Lingshan Sect. Therefore, we hold this test today to identify the Spiritual Child. To be fair, [Wei Bai, disciple of the Lingshan Sect’s third branch]
[He Wuyou, disciple of the Lingshan Sect’s second branch] [Wang Shouqing, disciple of the Lingshan Sect’s first branch] we’ve invited Elder Ma of the Yinshan Sect and Leader Yang of the Hegui Sect as witnesses. The true Spiritual Child will inherit all the assets of the Lingshan Sect, including three branches, 400 acres of land,
And 12 shops. [Piao Erhuang, steward of the Lingshan Sect] If Happy can get so much money, he can change his name to Rich. Since our master didn’t specify how to identify the Spiritual Child, every boy shall come forward, kneel in front of Leader Wang, knock the temple bowls, and kowtow for instructions.
If only the real Spiritual Child can get the assets, what will happen to the other children? No. Stop! Put out the fire! Hurry up! This way. Water. Hurry up. This way. He’s not the Spiritual Child. We lied about his birthday. We quit. Qingshan’s method is a bit strange, but this young man
Is the only one who didn’t catch fire. Is he the Spiritual Child Leader Wang chose? Leader Wang didn’t choose anyone. Someone set the fire on purpose. Nonsense! I found this flint in one of the temple bowls. There’s a fuse tied to it which is connected to the cotton under the cushion.
That’s how the fire started. Someone set this trap in advance. Does anyone know about this? What’s going on? These are all worthless old things that were kept in the warehouse without anyone guarding them. Have you seen anyone suspicious? No. This is phosphorus powder. It’s very flammable. Maybe we should look into those
Who had contact with these children first. You claimed that someone did this deliberately, but your servant is the only one who didn’t catch fire. It appears that you’re the prime suspect. -Do you know who… -Li. I’m Fang Duobing, Mr. Worried. I’m a detective from the Baichuan Court. We just arrived here
And never visited this place before. How could I possibly do this? Since I can’t prove myself innocent, I hope you can give me a chance to find out the truth. Mr. Fang is from the Baichuan Court. Of course we trust him. But whether this guy named Happy is innocent too,
It’s hard to say. He should stay. After the test is over, we’ll find out the truth and then give him back to you. Wait. We haven’t found out who did it. How can you resume the test? What if the guy behind it hurts these kids again? Let me explain.
The date of the test was set by Leader Wang before he died. The Lingshan Sect needs a new leader. No. Easy, everyone. I have an idea but don’t know whether I should say it. You’re arguing because Leader Wang didn’t specify how to identify the Spiritual Child. That’s the source of the problem.
How about I talk to Leader Wang to find out what he thought? What are you talking about? Our master has passed away. How can you talk to the dead? Wei Bai. Who are you? I’m Li Lianhua. Many people call me the miracle physician. So you’re the physician who resurrected Master Tiexiao.
Yes, it’s me. I’ve heard a lot about you. It’s such a great honor to meet you here. What are you up to this time? Look. This is not a simple case. If I find out who’s behind it, can you let me go? No. You’re a detective from the Baichuan Court.
Do you have no conscience at all? Look at them. Look at these innocent boys. Look how much they’ve suffered. Can you bear to let them suffer even more? Besides, catching a murderer can bring you more recognition than catching a quack. Leader Wang is six feet under now,
But I know how to summon ghosts. If you trust me, can you let me give it a try? How can we know if you’re just playing tricks and pretending to be our master? Don’t be rude to the miracle physician. We trust you. Let’s do it your way, Physician Li. Well,
Please send Leader Wang’s body back to his room. I also need some of his belongings to summon his ghost. Sir, this is where our master lived. [Qinglan Residence] Tell me. What tricks did you play to resurrect Master Tiexiao and the heir to the Tiejia Sect? Master Tiexiao was cornered by his enemy
And jumped off the cliff. Everyone thought he was dead and buried him. I happened to pass by and heard his voice. So I dug him out. As for Shi Wenjue, he was determined to start a career in public service but his family didn’t support him. His story is even more interesting.
He faked his suicide but I could tell that he was acting. I didn’t expose him. These two guys naturally won’t reveal the truth. That’s what happened. Word travels fast. Now I’m famous. As I expected, you earned your reputation through hanky-panky. I’m just more observant than most people.
To make my own way in the world, I have to have some strengths. Strengths? You call that a strength? You’re just lucky. You have to admit it. Good luck is a kind of strength too. I’m indeed lucky. Let me make it clear. After I help you, we’ll be even.
It depends on how much your help is worth. You said you’re observant. Then let’s see who can find out the cause of his death first. [Humble and Disciplined] [The heir is a sixteen-year-old Spiritual Child born in early April in the southwest of the city. He has a lotus-shaped mole on his right foot.]
Not only do I know how he died, but I also know that the murderer is among his steward and three disciples. Why… Look. Does that hand gesture look familiar to you? Breath Stopping Skill. No need to check. That skill could only stop his breath for three days at most. Three days later,
He needed someone to hit his acupoints Baihui and Tanzhong three times to come back to life. It’s been over ten days. He’s long dead. Wang Qingshan used Breath Stopping Skill to fake his death and needed someone he trusted to wake him up. But that guy didn’t do it. So he was suffocated.
No wonder you said the murderer is among those four guys. He needed the help of someone very close to practice this secret skill. Those four guys were the closest to Wang Qingshan in the Lingshan Sect. You figured it out right away because you used the same trick before. I haven’t finished my words.
Haven’t you noticed that the gold leaf on his lips is very thick? He was injured before he died. So the murderer used thick gold leaf to cover the blood. Go scrape off the gold leaf on his back. You… I’ll do you a favor. Is it Five Poison Palm? You know it?
Xin Lei, the Thunder Chaser of the Jinyuan Alliance, is famous for his Five Poison Palm. Ten years ago, the Jinyuan Alliance was wiped out. Most of its disciples were arrested by the Baichuan Court, but some escaped. Xin Lei is one of those who escaped. I didn’t expect that
He’d been holed up here all these years. Let’s go check the place where Leader Wang died. Maybe we can find other clues. It’s all for the case. The Tianji Hall is good at making intricate devices. I bet you know a lot about them. Let me ask you a question.
How did he manage to fool everyone? [Tengyun Tower] There is a secret chamber here. I knew it. That day, the Thunder Chaser hid a golden statue under the slate beforehand. After Wang Qingshan fooled everyone with his fake death, he sank Wang Qingshan into the chamber and replaced his body with a fake statue.
I need to remind you that there were many people here that day. No matter how fast he was, he couldn’t make it with hundreds of people watching. Everyone saw Leader Wang die and turn into a full-body sarira. Bronze mirror. Golden powder. I see. Good.
You deserve to be a detective of the Baichuan Court. But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Why did Wang Qingshan fake his death? Here, take a look. [The Three Character Classic] The Three Character Classic. What’s wrong with it? How old were you when you learned it? I’m smart
So I learned it by heart when I was three. Most kids learned it at five or six. Yeah. Wang Qingshan was over 50 years old. Why did he have The Three Character Classic? Unless… Unless he had a child. The Spiritual Child he wanted is not 16, but six. Now it all makes sense.
The Lingshan Sect bans its disciples from getting married and having children. If he wanted to leave the assets to his six-year-old illegitimate son instead of his disciples, this was the only option he had. Maybe it was an idea from the Thunder Chaser. He wanted to use this chance… To make his son
The next leader. Where are you going? Where are we going now? To have a talk with Leader Wang. Do you expect that dead man to answer your questions? The book I gave you, turn it to the marked page. The child’s autograph. As an illegitimate son, he can’t have his father’s surname,
So he has to use his mother’s surname. So? So, I have a plan. I wonder how long it will take the Young Master of the Tianji Hall to make a device that can remove the gold leaf and bring the dead back to life. Come here. You sly old fox. Thank you.
But I still need you to give me a hand, young fox. [The Lingshan Sect] [Mysterious Lotus Casebook] Leader Wang’s shiva is over. His soul has left his body for too long. I’ve tried my best. His soul will come back at midnight. Please stay away from the yard when I practice the ritual.
After I talk to him, I’ll convey his message to you. [Qinglan Residence] Heaven and Earth. The origin of Qi. The soul wandering around, come back now. Wake up. Sir, you’ve left the mortal world. Sorry that I summoned you back tonight. I just want to know who is the Spiritual Child you’re looking for?
I see. There’s someone you’ve been worried about. At midnight today, you’ll enter the dream of the Spiritual Child. The boy who can tell that person’s surname tomorrow is the real Spiritual Child. Please write the answer on this paper. I’ve kept it in mind. You can rest in peace now.
Half of it was burned. Only the other half was seen. What is the surname? Is it He? I saw it clearly. It’s He. He. [He] This is the answer Leader Wang gave me last night. Please, Mr. Piao. [He] [He] [Zhao] [Helan] The correct answer is Helan. So it’s really you.
You’re the Spiritual Child? No, I’m not. I didn’t… You didn’t write anything on the paper but someone changed your answer, right? Yes. Who could change your answer in such a short time? Mr. Piao. Take out the blank paper in your sleeve. I don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s just his speculation.
There’s a misunderstanding. Besides, he’s the only one who got the correct answer. He is the real Spiritual Child. Who told you this is the correct answer? There was only the word He on the paper yesterday. Impossible. It was just a show. Most people could only think of He
From what was left of the character. Few would think of the rare double-character surname Helan. Only the one who killed Leader Wang knows the person he cared about the most was his lover, Helan Yan. Go. What are you talking about? Leader Wang was killed? What lover?
Our master died of natural causes and turned into a full-body sarira. We all saw it. Li. [Tengyun Tower] Wang Qingshan chose to die at sunset because he wanted to use the Liuli Wall to reflect the sunlight on the bronze mirrors sprinkled with golden powder and then project the light on him.
From a distance, it looked like his body turned golden. When everyone lowered their head to bid him farewell, the Thunder Chaser seized the opportunity to replace his body. It was such an easy trick but fooled you all. Do you mean Leader Wang didn’t turn into a full-body sarira?
It was all arranged by Leader Wang. I just did what I was told. You can’t blame me. Piao Erhuang, stop playing dumb. By the way, should I call you Happy’s father? Or Xin Lei, the Thunder Chaser of the Jinyuan Alliance? You can go check Leader Wang’s body now.
There is a black palm on his back which was caused by the skill that made the Thunder Chaser famous. I guess that Leader Wang had an affair with a girl named Helan Yan. Later, they had an illegitimate son. Because he wasn’t allowed to get married and have children, Helan Yan threatened to leave.
But Leader Wang didn’t want to leave his child, so he decided to put on a show. You found out his plan by chance. You also found that Leader Wang had noticed the remnants of the Jinyuan Alliance in Jia Province. So you decided to get rid of him by giving him this idea.
Will it work? That woman came to make a fuss again and again. Unless she gets what she wants, I’m afraid the whole sect will find out about it sooner or later. Not only will your reputation be ruined, but the disciples may also join hands to topple you. You’ll lose everything by then.
Leader Wang wanted both the assets and his son. So he colluded with you to use the mirrors to fake his death in front of everyone. Three days later, instead of waking him up, you gave him a fatal blow. After that, you covered his body with gold
To conceal the print left by your Five Poison Palm. There’s really a palm print on Leader Wang’s back. You killed our master. Why do you believe him so easily? Let me tell you. It’s all just his imagination. I haven’t finished yet. Wang Shouqing. Can I borrow the letter Leader Wang left?
[The heir is a sixteen-year-old Spiritual Child born in early April in the southwest of the city. He has a lotus-shaped mole on his right foot.] Leader Wang intended to leave the Lingshan Sect to his six-year-old illegitimate son. So the suffix “teen” is in a different handwriting.
Moreover, part of this letter was cut out. I guess the missing part contains the most important information that the kid’s mother’s surname is Helan. You deliberately leaked the news to Happy’s cousin and caused a mysterious fire in the ancestral hall because you didn’t want these three disciples to get suspicious.
You’ve never thought of Happy in the past decade but after killing someone, you suddenly remembered the son you abandoned. What a good father you are. You just want to use him as a puppet to control the Lingshan Sect. Father. Did you do it? You’re a good storyteller. But unfortunately…
Unfortunately, I don’t have any evidence, right? After seeing the surname Helan last night, you were worried that your cover might be blown. So you went to her house in the middle of the night to kill the mother and son. But we had smeared Baihong juice on their quilt.
If you wash your hands, they’ll turn black. Show us your hands. Avenge our master! You talk too much. Go to hell! Fang Duobing. Please keep him under control. I’ll send out a letter immediately and have him brought back to the Baichuan Court. Wait. Do you have anything else to say to Happy?
I got nothing to say to a good-for-nothing. -You trash! -Move. Happy. Young Master. Don’t be sad. After you grow up, I’ll give you money and land. It’s fine. You’re welcome. What do you mean? This is the first case I solved for you. I know you’re grateful to me. I’m grateful to you?
Don’t you remember shouting my name just now? I saved your life. Lower your voice. After we leave here, we’ll go our separate ways. So who saved who is not important. Why are you… By the way, I left something in Leader Wang’s room. I’ll go get it. So rude. Young Hero Fang.
We want to ask you for a favor. I heard that the 188 prisons of the Baichuan Court are like hell. What are you doing here? I’m here to give you a chance. If you tell me one thing, I’ll let you go. You captured me and then offer to release me.
What do you want? I didn’t want to capture you. The guy named Fang Duobing wanted. I don’t care whether you live or die. Go ahead. What do you want to know? Ten years ago, the Three Great Fighters of the Jinyuan Alliance killed Shan Gudao of the Sigu Sect and took away his remains.
Where are his remains now? You used to work for Medicine Demon. You should know that. How did you know I used to work for Medicine Demon? Who are you? You don’t need to know that. Just answer my question. There are three holes in your earlobe.
When I tested poisons on people for Medicine Demon, I saw the same mark on their ears. It’s a mark left by Bicha Poison. That poison is lethal and has no cure. The victims’ bones and joints will rot in one month and their fresh will peel off until they die.
Most victims will die within a month unless they can force the poison out with strong inner force. You’re standing in front of me now. The only explanation is that you’re him. It’s been ten years. You’re still alive. I don’t have time to waste on you.
People from the Baichuan Court should be on their way. You’ve become a coward. You don’t even dare to say who you are. I got it. It’s not that you don’t know martial arts. You lost all of your skills. Li Xiangyi. I guessed right. You were once the invincible Master of Sword
But ended up like this. You challenged the Jinyuan Alliance for your senior back then but now, you’re searching for his remains. Everyone says you’re heartless, but they’re wrong. At least you care about your senior very much. Unfortunately, I can’t help you. I don’t know where his remains are. You’re dead.
I’ll kill you for the Director! Li Lianhua! Are you okay? I’m fine. Luckily, you appeared in time. How dare you strangle me? I was too quick. We haven’t gotten anything out of him yet. He died too soon. Yes. Thank you. Li Lianhua. You said you needed to fetch something. Why are you here?
I took the wrong turn. Why are you here? The three disciples of the Lingshan Sect are grateful to us and invited us to dinner. So I came to tell you about it. Man, I saved you again. Thanks. Aren’t you going? No. Fox Spirit is waiting for me at home. Fox spirit?
A little bit of salt. A little bit. A-A little bit. You must be hungry, Fox Spirit. Sit down. Go ahead. So you’re Fox Spirit. So cute. So you’re not only a quack but also a bad cook. So this is the Lotus Tower. What is this? You grow vegetables here? If I remember correctly,
We’re even now. Even if we are, there are questions I need to ask you. Why did you steal the manual of sword fighting from the Hall of Flames? That manual belonged to the Shi family in Henan in the beginning. Several years ago, it was taken away by the Hall of Flames.
So I paid Master Thief a lot of money to get it back. Why did you do that? He helped me once. Years ago, I had heart disease. He came to steal things from me and gave me some medicine. I had to pay him back. I didn’t expect you to be a grateful man.
I’m not. I didn’t want to pay him back. But that guy told the Hall of Flames about my whereabouts. I had no choice. Why are you still here? Do you expect to have dinner with me? I saved you twice today. I brought wine with me. Can’t you let me stay for dinner?
I’ll help myself. Let me try it. The beef is great. Why did you ruin it with so much pepper? Also, look at this artemisia selengensis. It looks so plain. The next time you cook, add some bacon to it. The fragrance of bacon goes perfectly with its refreshing taste. It’ll be very delicious. Well,
Look at the chicken stewed with chestnuts. It must taste gamy. The next time you make it, try using broth to get rid of the gamy taste. Really? Yes. If you like cooking, I can teach you. I’m an expert. I won’t bother you. Bro, do you have to be so cold?
You’re the first friend I made after leaving home. To tell you the truth, I ran away from home to escape an arranged marriage. My father wanted me to marry the princess, but I’m not interested in politics at all. Compared to the court, I prefer the wide world outside.
What does that have to do with me? I have to solve three cases to be admitted to the Baichuan Court. Look at us. We finally solved the case of the Spiritual Child, but I promised to keep it quiet. Lucky for you. You saved your reputation as the miracle physician
And the Lingshan Sect saved its dignity. What about me? I still need to solve three cases. How about this? You’re sly and I’m good at martial arts. Why don’t we work together to solve more cases? I can pay you a salary. What do you think? Salary? Do you have money? I…
You’re so poor that you came to me for a free meal. Besides, I’m not interested in being a hero. I prefer solitude to venturing into the perilous world. I just want to travel around the world. Living on the edge is not suitable for me. You… Give it a thought.
If I can’t enter the Baichuan Court, my master will be disappointed in me. Get your hands off me. Master. You started the Sigu Sect and the Baichuan Court single-handedly. I swear to make them thrive! Wait. Who is your master? Li Xiangyi, the Master of Sword. I’m fine. Li Xiangyi, the Master of Sword.
I never knew that Li Xiangyi had a disciple like you. No one knows about it. I bet. I guess he doesn’t know it either. You don’t believe me? Then I’ll tell you the truth. I was weak when I was young. My mother didn’t even give me a serious name
Because she thought I wouldn’t make it to adulthood. When I was ten, my mother found her younger brother who went missing at a young age. He’s the deputy leader of the Sigu Sect, Li Xiangyi’s senior, Shan Gudao. Shan Gudao is your uncle?
