Once upon a time,

humans lived with many other creatures,

including...

monsters.

But humans wanted to monopolise the world,

and so they declared war on monsters.

The monsters lost...

and were expelled to remote mountains.

They were not allowed to cross

the border ever since.

Now,

there is a civil war in the monster world.

The old Monster King was killed.

To totally cut off the old king's power,

the new Monster King massacred

the loyal former ministers.

The old Queen is now pregnant.

Escaping from the killers sent by

the new Monster King,

she is forced to flee to the human world...

under the protection of...

surviving supporters.

Legend says that...

this expected baby king...

will change both the human

and monster worlds.

This way!

Hands off my kid!

Your Majesty,

we're here to save you!

Watch out, Your Highness!

I can't walk anymore.

What are you staring at?

She's my wife!

"Yongning Village"

Mayor,

hurry up.

Be careful.

I saw it first.

Nonsense.

- I picked it first.

- Give it to me.

- It's perfect for me.

- You're too fat.

- I'm not fat!

- Our mayor is coming.

Stop fighting.

Here's the mayor.

Mama Li, Auntie Mo,

we all live in the same village...

Shut up!

It's a mayor's job to...

Quiet!

- I'm the mayor and...

- Have you sewn the clothes?

Have you cleaned the toilet?

Not yet.

Don't go!

He's our mayor!

You ladies shouldn't treat him like that.

Mayor,

your leg brace.

Xiaowu,

sorry.

Go and fix our clothes.

Xiaowu,

thanks.

No problem at all.

I'll go deliver now.

Grandma?

Grandma?

Grand...

Who are you?

Tianyin.

Who is Tianyin?

Your grandson.

Who's grandson?

Your son's son.

My son is first-tier palace

swordsman Song Daitian.

Let me tell you.

This is our Song family heritage...

monster killing sword!

It's actually more like a toy.

I won't play with you.

You're so dumb.

You don't understand a thing.

Hanging around with nothing to do,

you really don't act like a man.

I'm busy every day,

sewing and cooking.

Did you practice our Song

family special moves today?

No.

You are such a loser.

Grandma will leave home for a few days...

to look for your dad.

Grandma,

you've been searching

for that guy for years.

Shouldn't you give up?

Your dad is the hero of the

Monster Hunt Bureau.

What kind of hero dumps his wife and son?

Coward!

Your dad is...

a first-tier palace swordsman.

He left the whole village to you,

so protecting the villagers is...

my duty.

Then you shouldn't fall

short of your dad's...

expectations.

See you.

Monsters are not accepted

in the human world.

If any of them crossed the border,

we used to have the Monster Hunt Bureau

take care of them.

And they did such a good job that

people nowadays don't

know monsters even exist.

Since the last dynasty,

almost all monsters crossing the border...

were caught.

The Monster Hunt Bureau...

became useless and closed.

Great monster hunters like you

turned into normal people...

and served small businessmen like me.

You were totally wronged.

Now,

your time has come!

If one of you...

can grab that expected baby monster king,

the monster world will be in chaos...

and monsters will flee all over.

Then,

the emperor must rely on you all

to suppress them.

The Monster Hunt Bureau

will be strong again.

Come on.

Let's toast to our great fortune.

Cheers!

I was so awesome.

I hit his belly with my head.

You didn't see how...

Hi,

how are you?

Smells delicious!

We can have something to eat.

Right,

my restaurant is that way.

We have our signature

dish, duck blood pudding.

Why do you keep walking around me?

Stop chatting with this limp.

We're in a hurry!

Ignore him!

He's jealous...

when I pay attention to others.

Because I'm his...

first love.

Why do you tell that to everyone you meet?

I won't tell you anything anymore!

He's blushing!

See,

he looks so cute when he blushes!

You're mean and crazy!

Let's go!

He's not going,

but I will.

Fine, fine, fine! I'll go.

Our Yongning Village...

hasn't had visitors for ages.

Can you tell me...

about your adventures?

Sure.

I'll...

tell you...

while I eat you...

This way.

Here we are.

We've arrived.

Please take a seat.

Let me...

I will get you some water.

Thanks.

Can't wait to eat.

What would you...

like to order?

- We...

- Is there any human meat...

or human liver?

It's only me here.

How about eating me first?

I'll bring you the duck blood pudding.

No one is allowed to leave.

Right,

no one.

Lady,

what's your problem?

Tell me your names!

Song... Song Tianyin.

Not you.

I'm the gorgeous, elegant and

coolest Lily.

When did you make that up?

Just now.

I like your original name Ying better.

How dare you hit my wife?

Your skills are medio... cre...

Still mediocre?

If I wasn't injured earlier,

just a level two monster hunter like you...

I'll be promoted to level three

after I've captured you both.

Little monster, what's your name?

I am...

Gao.

Hiding in such a skinny shell...

is killing me!

See, we have serious business,

and all you can think about...

is eating!

But that limp smells delicious.

You never learn.

Ma ta ta ku la fa fa.

Foul language?

You say that again and...

I'll kick your ass very hard.

Oh, baby. You're right.

It's all my fault.

Oh no, Her Majesty fell out!

Save the queen!

Freeze!

I won't look. I won't look. I won't look.

Freeze!

Ying, I'll save you.

Salilongchong Freeze.

Perfect!

An ma hong.

Luogang!

They are mine.

How can you say...

they're yours?

Whoever has the monsters...

gets the money.

Your Highness! Run!

Luogang!

This is not fair.

To me,

this is totally fair.

Thief!

I'm the mayor in this village.

You've just killed people.

What people did I kill?

They're all monsters!

Monsters?

Of course.

They're monsters covered with human skin.

Ignorant.

Monsters are the most cunning creatures...

in the world.

They hide in human skin,

dress as humans...

and speak human language!

Then how can I tell...

if you're human or monster?

So may I ask you something?

Did you win or lose the fight just now?

I lost?

If I lost, you'd have been eaten by them.

Idiot!

Make dinner!

I'm hungry!

I want something spicy!

Question me?

How could someone like me lose?

Can't stop talking,

but can cook quite well.

Even though I'm a bit crippled,

I do have great goals.

You know what?

Cooking is my third ideal job.

How about the second?

Sewing.

Want to guess what's the first?

How about the first?

The first is cooking plus sewing.

I'm a genius, right?

Why would you catch monsters?

To make money.

Then why are you alone?

Want to know?

Yes.

People who know too much about me...

I'll have their tongue cut off.

Where're you going?

I'll sleep in my Grandma's room.

Sleep with me.

I stay here...

so that I can sleep with you.

You?

Hmm.

I'll go to prepare.

You like it this way?

Will it hurt?

What?

What do you expect?

I'll gouge out your eyes!

That monster spat on you...
