The Guillotines Page #3
There's a 100 tael bounty
on his head
I'm back
Don't move!
You know why!
But they don't need to die!
The Guillotines are a stain
His Majesty's legacy must be clean
The stains must be erased
Su also died at my hands
I must do what you won't
Understand?
Did His Majesty also say
If I don't return with you
you must kill me too?
His Majesty has hoped that you'll return
Lap C109
I said lap C109!
Didn't your master order you to kill me?
Shoot me, lap dog
Go on
Lap (109!
The Guillotines are a stain
His Majesty's legacy must be clean
The Guillotines are a stain
You are a stain
I wish you were my son
Are we still brothers?
You're one of us
Your name is Nala Leng
Wang Lei
Wang Lei
What's your name?
Wang Lei
Hold it
Don't be afraid
Tell me
What's your name?
Nala Leng
Mister
Constellations of stars
Wolf!
You can kill me after you recover
Why did you save me?
Because you had nowhere else to turn
Same as everyone else here
I was like you in the beginning
but I kept moving
found my place here
I found a refuge for all of us
Now, I'm not sure
how long we can eat and live in peace
You have nowhere to go
but you're not alone
Musen has died
I hate her
ls my father dead?
I got my brothers killed
I got your father killed
You're all I have left
No matter what happens
you must stay alive
you're all accomplices
Tell me where Wolf is hiding
I'll spare your lives
Otherwise
you'll all be dead
The one with the baby
That one on the hill
Let go of me
Move back!
Let me out
Over here
Run
Don't take my child!
That's the wishing tree
to bless the crops
It's so sweet
this is the sweetest yet
I wonder...
if I'll ever taste it again
After sweetness...
comes bitterness
It's a cycle
Why are you smiling?
You are my greatest fear
I dreamed that you kill me
then I met you
It's a sign from the heavens
I've made promises to too many
I do not fear death
But that day
when Bai-Ian was shot dead
Those guns dashed our hopes
and dreams
I could do nothing
but watch helplessly
I was so sure of myself once...
our dreams would come true one day
When the firearms squad arrives
everything here will be destroyed
How much time do we have left?
Great Father, come play with us
Commander Wan
Who should I kill next?
Don't kill my child!
StOP
"Map of Wuguan, Ming Dynasty"
This map is so intricate
No wonder you didn't share this earlier
Your servant
remembered it just now!
I too just remembered that...
Commander Wan and the Green Army soldiers
are also Han Chinese
Certain mountain paths are drawn differently
Do you really think we are born killers...
who hate Manchurians?
We just want to live like everyone else
Farm
Work
Provide for ourselves
It's our dream
If we didn't find this place
we'd still be slaves out there
And that...
is the life I promised them
Equality for all
cold and starving
A slave being bullied everyday
I was brought up to serve the Emperor
ready to die for him
Your Majesty
However
he's Han Chinese
his name is Wang Lei
How ironic
for my son to carry on our golden legacy
with the help of a Han Chinese
I suppose it's fate
I am Han Chinese
and believed what they said
It is my fate to serve His Majesty
Haidu and I
will serve as his right hand men
H is Majesty said
he wants to create a golden age
A golden age
where no opposition exists
He also promised
The Guillotines
would no longer have to kill
I now see why
it is you who kill me in my dream
Great Father
Great Father
Allow me
Drink up
We're not leaving
Evacuate the women and children
take the southern path
The rest of you gather weapons
and meet at the peak
When I was a Guillotine
I never had a choice
For the first time I can make my own decisions
I'm staying
I will escort them to safety
Musen
This is the last guillotine
Use it
at each gateway to the village
leave none behind
Once prepared
meet at the town hall
It's there...
Get to safety
Mother, take good care of him
Leave now!
Order
Prepare the cannons!
Hurry!
Run!
Run!
Run!
Hurry!
It's the right time
the right place
and the right man
Take my head to them
I must die by the hand of a Han Chinese
to end this carnage
Go back and tell him
what you witnessed here
Tell him when Manchurians and Han Chinese
are equals
the day we've both been waiting for
will finally be here
I've waited all my life for you
Do it
Go back with me
The three of us are still brothers
Leng
Haidu
I bestow upon each of you the title
of Batulu Warrior
Thank you, Your Majesty
Your Majesty
What will the golden age look like?
I've finally understand
the mistake Wolf has made
that destined him to fail
Because as long as people have food
shefier
and peace
How dare you!
Continue
Whether it's the Herders
people only revolt when they have
nowhere else to turn
If they were living in a golden age
enjoying the peace and prosperity
They're rebelling
against injustice and inequality
When everyone is equal
there will be no dissent against Your Majesty
That's when
What makes you think I'll listen to you?
Because Your Majesty is a man of vision
Then tell me...
will that day come?
Your servant
will not live to see that day
The day I joined the Guillotines
at His Late Majesty's behest
and die as a Guillotine
The Guillotines was killed off
And now...
I am the last remaining stain
I hope after Your Majesty end my life
will heed my final words today
Forgive him, Your Majesty
Leng had a momentary lapse
and spoke out of turn
Please forgive him
He lived longer than any other emperor
in the history of China
During his reign
he created harmony between Manchurians
and Han Chinese
