[00:00:00]Don't kill me. I am your lawful wives.

[00:00:09]>> You've grown up now. It's time to start thinking about marriage. A young man has come recently. He seems well off and quite respectable. If his intentions are sincere, I won't stand in the way of this marriage.

[00:00:23]>> When I see him, I can't explain it, but he makes me feel uneasy.

[00:00:33]Forgive my interruption.

[00:00:36]I've simply come to make a formal visit.

[00:00:40]You seem like a well- bred young man.

[00:00:44]If your intentions toward her are sincere, I will not stand in the way.

[00:00:50]I will give her a peaceful and secure life.

[00:00:55]Before the wedding, would you like to visit my home?

[00:01:00]>> All right.

[00:01:01]>> It would be good for you to go and see it.

[00:01:11]>> Something still doesn't feel right.

[00:01:15]I can follow it and find his home.

[00:01:19]He will mark the path with ash.

[00:01:22]Follow the ashes.

[00:01:27]I should go.

[00:01:35]I left peas and beans along the path just in case I needed to find my way back.

[00:01:46]This must be the place.

[00:01:52]Is anyone here?

[00:02:01]Turn back, beautiful bride. Hello. Go back home. Leave this place of murderers. Leave now and return home.

[00:02:10]A bird talking.

[00:02:13]It must be nothing.

[00:02:19]Excuse me, ma'am. Could you tell me if my fianceé lives here?

[00:02:36]>> Ah, poor child. You've walked straight into their trap.

[00:02:40]Your wedding will be your funeral. Those men are murderers. They will take your life. If I don't help you, you won't survive.

[00:02:52]You can't hide down there forever.

[00:03:14]Stay very still. Don't make a sound.

[00:03:17]When they fall asleep, we'll leave.

[00:03:36]>> Hey, you make us some food.

[00:04:02]Give her the wine.

[00:04:12]Don't kill me. I am your lawful wives.

[00:04:16]>> Because you are my lawful prey.

[00:04:20]>> In my world, love is just a trap.

[00:04:54]The gold ring seems to have flown towards that barrel.

[00:04:57]>> Oh, sit down and eat. The ring isn't going anywhere. You can look for it tomorrow.

[00:05:32]I put something in their wine.

[00:05:35]They're all asleep now. Go now.

[00:05:41]>> You should come with me.

[00:05:43]>> No, you must go. I have to stay and wait for you to come back for me.

[00:06:21]Where is she?

[00:06:25]She wouldn't stay out all night.

[00:06:38]It's terrifying.

[00:06:39]>> Father, it was terrifying.

[00:06:42]>> Don't kill me. I am your unlawful wife.

[00:06:52]That's what happened in the cellar. We have to save the old woman and stop them.

[00:07:18]Everyone should tell a story.

[00:07:20]>> My love, would you like to tell us a story?

[00:07:28]I had a dream.

[00:07:31]I wandered into a house in the forest.

[00:07:37]In the cellar, there was an old woman.

[00:07:40]She told me I had walked into a trap.

[00:07:44]Not long after, the robbers took a girl down into the cellar >> skin, and she never came back. One of the robbers tried to pull the ring from the girl's finger, but it slipped away and flew right into my hands.

[00:08:02]>> ENOUGH.

[00:08:08]>> And this is that ring.

[00:08:17]No, this can't be.

[00:08:46]The robbers were brought to justice.

[00:08:49]The testimony and evidence were verified.

[00:08:53]Their crimes could no longer be hidden.

[00:08:55]>> The verdict is final.
