- This way, please, sir. - Come on in!
WONG LIK as TUNG QI
Place your bets!
No more bets!
Open!
Two fours and one three. Eleven, big!
- Big wins! - I'm so unlucky.
CHAN SHU-KEI as LIANG XIAO-HU
- Hurry. - Come on.
Uncle Tung Qi.
- Where's Uncle Tung Ba? - I don't want him to show his face yet.
- Those people are here. - Let's sit and talk. Don't be conspicuous.
- Here we go! - Alright.
- Three! Give me three! - Three!
- Two!
- It's three! - Three!
I won!
No one will notice us if we sit down and play.
- Chao-ming, let's go. - Go away!
- I want to bet more. - You're drunk. Let's go.
Be careful.
The Ten Tigers of Kwangtung killed your father.
These five are their disciples.
LUNG TIEN-HSIANG as WANG CHAO-MING
- You're drunk. - Don't stop me. I'm not drunk yet!
The one who's drunk is Wang Chao-ming.
He's the son of Wang Yin-lin, one of the Ten Tigers of Kwangtung.
His master is Li Ren-chao, also one of the Ten Tigers of Kwangtung.
- Look. Go away. - You're drunk.
I wanna bet all of it!
Beside him is Lin Fu-cheng.
CHIN SIU-HO as LIN FU-CHENG
He's the disciple of Iron Arm San and Beggar Su of the Ten Tigers.
I'll bet on this.
And that's Chen Da-jun, the nephew of Iron Finger Chen of the Ten Tigers.
He's also Su Hei-hu's disciple.
He works as a weigher at the Mipu Pier.
I'll bet on this.
HSIAO YU as CHEN DA-JUN
Beside Lin Fu-cheng is Lin Bing. They're cousins.
CHAN HON-KWONG as LIN BING
He's also Wang Yin-lin's disciple.
Behind them is Tan Ming's nephew, Tan Chung.
LAM CHI-TAI as TAN CHUNG
He works at this casino.
The Tan family is known for the Sanzhan Fist.
Come on! Come on!
Uncle Tung Qi, you said to start with the youngsters to lure the old men out.
That's the plan. But we can't make a move now.
Our chances of success are low, since the five of them are together.
To be safe, we must wait until we get them alone.
If we can't do it tonight, we still have tomorrow.
Just be patient. We'll kill them when we strike.
Right.
- Forget it. Don't take it from him. - Don't take it away.
- You're drunk. - Stop playing, go.
- Get out! - Go and rest.
Listen, I'll definitely win with this next hand.
Stop playing. You're drunk. Go to your room and rest.
- Take a look! - You're drunk.
You think you'll win with that hand? Go to bed.
Who says I'm drunk? Let's drink more!
- Come on, let's go. - Go to bed!
- Go away! - Let's go.
Look at how drunk you are. Come on.
Go inside. Go inside.
You're drunk.
- I'm not drunk. - Sleep it off!
It looks like the others are drunk as well.
- Only Tan Chung is left. - We can make a move now.
Let's pretend not to know each other, then fight over a bet.
Tan Chung will approach us as part of the surveillance here.
Then we'll take our chance and make a move.
You've got a nerve! How dare you trick me?
- So what? - What are you doing?
- I'll beat you too. - Beat me? Let's fight outside.
Come on, then. Come on!
You're here to enjoy yourself. Why are you fighting? Stop it.
- I want to beat him up. - Stop wanting to fight.
- So what if I want to fight? - You certainly don't scare me.
They're fighting!
- Somebody's been stabbed! - He's dead!
- What should we do? - They're leaving.
Bad news! Wake up!
- Tan Chung is dead! - What?
"Liang Shi-gui's son, Liang Xiao-hu, has taken revenge for his father."
It's all my fault. I shouldn't have drunk that much.
We all had a lot to drink. You're not the only one to blame.
- Liang Shi-gui's son... - I heard about that from Master.
It all started with Chai Min-yi, an anti-Qing agitator.
KU FENG as CHAI MIN-YI
WANG LUNG-WEI as GENERAL LIANG
Whoever captures the rebel will be rewarded.
Master Chai... I am Li Ren-chao.
Master Ren-chao. You're a true hero.
I have no wish to lie to you. Chai Min-yi is a fake name.
I am Zhu Hong-ying from the Heaven and Earth Society.
TI LUNG as LI REN-CHAO I know. Take a seat.
I've been called the top rebel in the Qing Dynasty's imperial court.
I think you...
Master Chai, you can stay here without any worries.
I'll find a way to send you overseas.
Good.
I would like to travel in South-East Asia
to spread our anti-Qing revolutionary ideology.
Master Chai, just to be safe, you'd better not leave this room.
Listen, this is the secret room I use
to store the valuables that my customers have pawned.
- This is a pawnshop? - Yes.
I'm this shop's pawnbroker.
XINHENG PAWNSHOP
Good morning, Master Tan.
ALEXANDER FU SHENG as TAN MING Good morning.
Are you practicing the Sanzhan Fist?
Follow me. This is the place!
- Come on. - Come on.
Hey, how much do you want for these shabby clothes?
- I want five taels for them. - Huh? Five taels?
- What drugs are you on? - Treat it as charity.
My 80-year-old mother is about to die of illness.
Pay it.
- They're shabby clothes. - Pay it.
- But... - You do it.
It worked!
- Here's mine. - There's more.
- Two taels! - There's more here.
I'll pay it. Ask Tan Ming to check where they're from.
You've learned your lesson. I won't hit you as long as you don't dodge.
A bunch of people is causing trouble outside.
Go and take a look.
The owner gave us a great idea. Li Ren-chao wants to give to charity.
The Xinheng Pawnshop will close down in less than a year.
Wait.
- Were you the one causing trouble? - I have nothing to do with it.
DONG-SHENG PAWNSHOP
Master Zhou was the one who asked us to do it.
- Do you deserve a beating? - Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
If you don't fight back, I'll punch you once each.
If you fight back, you have to compete with me.
- Who wants to fight back? - No, we wouldn't dare.
They won't withstand even half a blow from the Tan family's Sanzhan Fist.
You must forgive people if you can. Forget them.
- Are you looking for Master Li? - Yes.
DICK WEI as WONG CHING-HO WEI PAI as WONG KEI-YING
Get lost!
What? You idiots! You're all incompetent!
I have no use for you! Get out!
Someday, you'll see.
Ren-chao, I'll do this without hesitation.
I still have other assistants in mind. Huangsha Xia Family Fist, Wang Yin-lin.
And Su Hei-hu from Mipu Pier.
Wang Yin-lin and Su Hei-hu both have special kung fu skills.
But I'm not sure if they'll be willing to help us.
What do we need Wang Yin-lin and Su Hei-hu's help for?
I know where they are. I'll ask them to come.
If they're not willing, I'll fight them until they are.
Tan Ming is very direct. It's easy for him to get into trouble.
That's why I didn't tell him about Master Chai.
I heard that his grandfather, Tan Yi-jun,
didn't want to teach him kung fu because of his impulsive personality.
Yes. He just learned kung fu in secret.
He practices it very diligently. He always trains here.
He's almost never at home.
SUN CHIEN as WANG YIN-LIN
Forty-nine piles. Twenty-seven high, twenty-two low.
This is the Lama Sect's Big Dipper Formation.
You must be Wang Yin-lin. Am I right?
- And you are? - Tan Ming.
- I've heard a lot about you. - You're too kind.
Come on, my friend, Li Ren-chao,
Wong Kei-ying and Huang Chengke from Baozhilin
all want to talk to you.
Are you coming down or not?
Let's go. Eh? Did you just hit me?
Good that you're fighting on the ground.
- Stop. - I can't or I'll die.
- Master Wang, please stop. - He can't stop either.
Master Wang, sorry to offend you. I'm Li Ren-chao.
I've long heard of your excellent kung fu skills.
You could have come alone to fight me.
Why did you ask the two masters from Baozhilin to come, too?
You've misunderstood.
Ren-chao is visiting you because he has urgent matters to discuss with you.
Is this considered a visit? I don't deserve it. Please leave.
Tan Ming, come and apologize to Master Wang.
Do it yourself. I'm going to find Su Hei-hu.
LU FENG as SU HEI-HU
MIPU PIER
What's the matter? Are you here to cause trouble?
- What's going on? - You wanna fight?
Alright.
I came to find Su Hei-hu. I know that this pier is his turf.
Since you're so threatening, I wanna try fighting you.
Master.
Master, there's a young man causing trouble and beating up our men.
Who would dare cause trouble here?
I think you lot bullied this guy and caused trouble.
That's him.
Stop!
- Su Hei-hu? - Who are you?
Tan Ming.
The Tan family's Sanzhan Fist is simply a trick.
What did you say? I'll show you how incredible it is.
If you want to cause trouble here, you'll have an uphill struggle.
Is Li Ren-chao here?
Li Ren-chao, why aren't you coming out?
Alright. You're being unreasonable.
You're still pretending?
Forget it, Master Li. I don't think Su Hei-hu is that great.
We don't need his help.
You're Su Hei-hu?
If I had known, I would have drowned you earlier!
It's a shame you didn't drown me. You even took a punch from me.
What?
Master Su, it's Tan Ming's fault. I, Li Ren-chao, apologize for him.
What's going on?
Hey, Su Hei-hu is here to challenge us.
Huang Chengke, Wang Yin-lin, fight him together if you're good friends.
We should beat you if we're good friends.
Hei-hu, that's an example of Tan Ming's temper.
I've already taught him a lesson earlier. Don't blame him.
Who's blaming him?
His Tan family's Sanzhan Fist is incredible.
If I hadn't made him fall into the water...
This is Zhu Hong-ying from the Heaven and Earth Society.
His revolution in Guangxi and Hunan failed,
so he changed his name to Chai Min-yi to hide his tracks.
I'm sorry to cause you all trouble because of my affairs.
Regardless of sect, martial artists in Kwangtung all descend from Shaolin.
And we should help you for the sake of national interest.
Forgive me, Master Chai, I'm not a refined man who's good with words.
But now that you've informed me, I must do all I can to help.
- That's right. - Tell no one about this.
The imperial court is conducting a massive search. We must be careful.
- Right, we have to be careful. - You're the one I'm worried about most.
Let's meet each day and exchange ideas.
There are more eyes and ears about during the day. It's safer to meet at night.
DONG-SHENG PAWNSHOP
Please come in. This way, please.
What is Su Hei-hu from Mipu Pier doing here?
Please come in.
Look after the customers.
Sir, you're here. Come in and take a seat.
- Is she coming or not? - Sir, she'll be here soon. Be patient.
Don't lie to me.
- Sir. - A toast to you.
Here, have some food.
Here.
Xiaohong, if you can't get Master Liang to have three drinks in a row,
that means you're not good enough at entertaining.
That's right!
Please, Master Liang...
Master Liang is not in a good mood today. Leave.
A criminal wanted by the imperial court is hiding in Guangzhou,
but he's still at large.
Which criminal?
If I execute him on the spot, I'll get promoted by three ranks.
Master Zhou,
I pursued the criminal until I reached the area near your pawnshop.
Then he disappeared.
- Are you hiding him? - No.
Don't be ridiculous. Such a crime is punishable by death.
Why are you so scared if you're not hiding him?
Master Liang...
Master said, because of this,
my father, Master Huang, Master Su, and Master Tan all got dragged into this.
They wanted to help save Master Chai out of loyalty.
I heard from Master what happened afterward.
PHILIP KWOK as BEGGAR SU
I'm just passing by, and performing my moves to earn money.
Give me a few coins so that I can buy some wine.
He's having a drink first!
Right!
YANG HUNG as IRON ARM SAN
If I don't perform well, please don't laugh at me.
- Nice. - Great.
Amazing!
He's magnificent!
He's good.
- Why are you laughing? - What kind of kung fu is that?
It's more like doing somersaults on a stage.
Eh? So people in Guangzhou don't understand martial arts?
Oh, I came to the wrong place.
That move is "Golden Scissor Legs Face the Sky".
How can you say that no one understands it?
Oh, you're very perceptive. It's too bad you're the only one.
I recognize it too.
"Golden Scissor Legs Face the Sky" isn't so amazing.
Young man, how many years have you studied kung fu?
What's the matter? You want to fight?
I have a rule in fighting.
If you don't fight back, I'll just punch you once.
If you fight back, you'll die in vain.
If you can actually hit me, I'll hit my head on the streets and die in front of you!
Alright. If I can't punch you, I'll hit my head and die in front of you too.
- Alright. A gentleman... - ...must honor his word.
Here it comes.
Master Lin...
If Master Tan can't punch that beggar, he has to smash his head and die.
Go and take a look.
Over there.
- Hit your head and commit suicide. - But you didn't hit me.
- You're the one who should die. - No way!
Tan Ming. What nonsense is this?
He lost, so he should smash his head and die.
Hey, where did you hit me?
- You... - Hey.
You...
Two against one? You're bullying an outsider.
- This won't do! - I want them to stop fighting.
You'll have to go through me first.
Iron Arm San?
You're good.
Move aside!
What's going on? You're fighting in broad daylight?
Don't you know the law?
It's nothing. We're just playing around.
Master Li, you suddenly stopped fighting earlier.
Weren't you afraid that I'd ambush you?
If Iron Arm San did something so despicable,
he wouldn't be called Iron Arm San.
- You're fine now. - Yes.
Master, please come with me.
You both have excellent skills. Come to my shop for tea and a chat.
DONG-SHENG PAWNSHOP
Tea? Don't you have wine?
Yes, yes!
- Bring some wine. - Hey, the more, the better!
- Bring the whole jar. - Yes.
You both have such great kung fu skills. I'm most impressed.
I've long heard about your iron arms, Master Liang.
Your reputation is well deserved indeed. You are...
Help yourself, sir.
My name is Su Can. People call me Beggar Su.
Your kung fu skills are so good, you should open a martial arts school.
You'd become famous!
I'd take care of expenses to open a school.
BAOZHIYUAN
CHIANG SHENG as ZOU YU-SHENG
This way.
The Eight Diagram Pole? You must be Zou Yu-sheng.
"Golden Scissor Legs Face the Sky"? You must be Su Can.
People call me Beggar Su.
- I like martial arts. - Me too.
- I like wine, too. - Wine is my life.
I like to gamble too.
JIQING CASINO
Come in if you want to get rich!
- Come in. - Open!
The bank has a pair of twelves!
- Here it comes! - Let's see them!
- You lose! - You lose!
- The bank wins all hands. - The bank wins.
- Continue betting! - Hey!
Round two soon.
Move aside. The big banker is here!
- What's going on? - Move.
- Step aside. - Place your bets.
- He took our table. - He won't let us be the bank.
- Go and get help. Go now. - Open!
The bank has a nine and a nine.
Let's see them.
LO MENG as IRON FINGER CHEN
We won.
Hey! Why are you getting the money?
- We won. Why don't we get the money? - Who says you won?
Look at this.
- We won. - Right?
Watch carefully.
You lost.
Wait. Why are these two short?
I know you. You're Iron Finger, you practice the Iron Finger technique.
Your nickname is Iron Finger Chen. Why don't you join us and play?
Oh? You want to play with me?
- What will you use as a bet? - We'll bet what you bet.
If you can flip these over, you win.
You go.
- What will we win? - If you win, these two fingers are yours.
Beggar Su, what would we need two fingers for?
- Eat them as a drinking snack! - Alright, we'll do it.
Get up.
I won!
- Cut off your fingers, then! - Come and take a look.
You won't admit defeat.
So, you're Zou Yu-sheng of the Eight Diagram Pole?
You're good. But aren't you embarrassed?
Your two fingers belong to me. You're using them without my permission.
Get a knife and chop these two fingers off.
Damn it, these two fingers will come in useful!
How will they be useful if you chop them off?
Will they be useless if they're chopped off? Beggar Su?
What do you think we should do?
Forget it, then. Leave them attached.
Thank you very much.
Damn you! These fingers are mine.
Why are you pretending to be the good guys?
If you gamble, you must accept defeat.
It's our fault. We were drunk when we came in.
We've sobered up after this mess.
- Hey! He should compensate us with wine. - Right.
No problem. I have plenty of money for wine.
Money?
- Let's go drinking. - Let's go.
Wait for me! I'll go with you!
- You're drunk. - No way!
Is it here?
- It's here. - Here?
- Open up! Open the door! - Open up!
XINHENG PAWNSHOP
Hide.
Open the door!
Watch this.
Alright!
- You're here causing trouble again. - It's not me.
Who told you to cause trouble here?
Li Ren-chao.
Two great martial artists fighting an outsider like Beggar Su?
That's not fair at all.
He came here and started it.
Nice leg technique.
- Nice finger strength. - This is Iron Finger Chen.
Zou Yu-sheng, stop fighting.
Farewell.
Wait. Who told you to cause trouble here?
Nonsense! No one tells me what to do!
- Are we going to let this slide? - The four of them are very suspicious.
We have an important task ahead. We must be very careful.
- The Iron Finger practitioner... - Iron Finger Chen's a guard at the casino.
Come inside.
Halt!
Ah, it's you, Master Huang.
- Yes. What's the matter? - Nothing in particular.
Master Liang instructed us to be wary of people we don't recognize.
Forgive the intrusion, Master Huang.
- Let's go. - Yes, sir.
The government is investigating, and bad people are fomenting trouble.
It's dangerous for Master Chai to stay here.
Baozhilin has a good reputation in Guangzhou. Why not move there?
That's not suitable either. I have another idea.
SANSHENG ASSOCIATION
- Great! - Well done!
- Amazing! - That's incredible.
Tell the two masters to perform their kung fu.
Master Liang and Master Chen, your reputation precedes you.
Please show us some techniques.
Gentlemen, please.
Great!
Marvelous!
- Zhou Dong-sheng. - Yes, sir?
I don't care about your business dealings.
But as you've opened a martial arts school, I must intervene.
The imperial court has ordered us to ban private martial arts schools.
Master Liang, there are so many private martial arts schools.
The government can't ban all of them.
I'm letting them fight and eliminate each other,
which will indirectly help the imperial court.
These people have great kung fu skills. They can fight against Li Ren-chao.
I told you to secretly keep an eye on the Xinheng Pawnshop.
- Did you find anything? - Nothing yet.
But I'll use the martial arts school to foment trouble between them.
I'll find something eventually.
Are you saying you're doing this for the government?
- Precisely, Master Liang. - Good.
Inform me immediately if you find anything.
Yes, Master Liang.
Please help yourself.
I'd like some, too.
Xiaohong, take a seat. I have something important to tell you.
I trust this friend of mine with my life.
He wants to hide here temporarily.
He'll buy time in your company. And I'll pay you double.
But you can't tell anyone about this.
But if you think it's too much trouble, we shall leave immediately.
Master Li, there's no need to leave. But I only have one condition.
Tell me.
I won't ask what trouble he is in,
and I shall do my best if I agree to the arrangement.
However, I want you to buy my freedom from the brothel, so I may leave.
Very well. We have a deal.
That's enough. Please ask Sixth Auntie to come.
Master Chai, you don't have to worry. Xiaohong is very loyal.
She'll take responsibility for you. It'll be safe for you to stay here.
You must protect Master Chai here.
Yin-lin, I trust you.
Tan Ming, I want you to stay here. You must not leave.
- Alright. - Remember that.
Waiter, those two don't come here often, do they?
They've never been here before.
Someone's throwing a banquet but they just keep wandering around.
They've no idea of the rules here.
And they're staying a while. I think trouble's brewing.
- They're staying a while? - Yes.
Master Li from the Xinheng Pawnshop brought them here.
And one of the party bought time with Xiaohong.
- I haven't seen him before either. - He bought time with Xiaohong?
Darling, I suddenly remember I have something important to do.
I'll be back later.
What do you think?
I think one of them is the criminal you're after.
I have an idea.
Zou Yu-sheng and Iron Finger Chen have a feud with Tan Ming and the others.
I'll incite them to cause trouble at the brothel.
Master Liang, just send your soldiers there.
And when the time comes...
Upstairs!
Tan Ming, you fool!
- Are you afraid to come out? - Come down!
Hey, Master Li instructed us not to cause any trouble.
Are you scared of us? You're useless!
- He's hiding, he doesn't dare come down! - Is he scared?
Master Li instructed us not to leave. But they're already inside.
- Should I just ignore them? - But you...
- Get him! - Go.
Allow me!
Li Ren-chao, why don't you show your face?
- Master Li isn't here. - Oh...
- Master Liang is here. - Move aside. Move!
The outlaws are gathering and causing trouble.
The government is responsible for detaining them. No one leaves!
Let's go!
This is bad. The authorities are here. Go and protect Master Chai.
Capture the rebel!
Get him!
- Don't move. - You can't run anymore.
- Go! - Come on.
Iron Arm San, I've always respected you as a hero.
But you turn out to be the government's lackey.
What are you talking about?
Didn't they just bring the authorities to arrest someone?
Let's leave.
Come on.
We only came to fight with Tan Ming. We don't know why the authorities came.
Master Zhou, tell us! Why were the authorities here?
What are you doing, colluding with the government?
Let me go. This is a very serious matter.
Li Ren-chao is harboring someone.
You want us to help the government capture him?
That's not what I meant. He's my enemy.
He commits all kinds of evil.
He set my ancestral home on fire and even killed my wife.
Think about it, if I know his whereabouts, how can I not report it to the government?
With Li Ren-chao's protection,
even the authorities won't be able to deal with him.
A hero must honor the code of brotherhood.
Please help me in this matter.
Arson and murder? We can't let this man escape.
If you catch him, I'll give you a handsome reward.
Did we ask for any reward?
We're friends. I won't forget your favor.
Don't worry, we'll handle this.
- Come on. - Please...
XINHENG PAWNSHOP
You can't stay in the city any longer.
Su Hei-hu, arrange for him to leave as planned.
Yes.
Master Chai, this way, please.
Gentlemen, I have to deal with an urgent matter.
Let's resolve this another time.
Fine. But he's going nowhere!
- Are you working for the authorities? - What authorities?
He can't leave. All of you must remain here!
- Master Huang, please take him away. - Yes.
Get them!
Chengke, take him away.
Master Chai, go straight to Mipu Pier.
Everyone, stop fighting.
Since you want to capture me for a reward, I'll come with you.
What reward?
It's because you committed the grave crime of killing someone's wife
and burning his ancestral home.
Wait. What did you say?
- Do you know who he is? - A criminal who kills and commits arson!
Stop.
Iron Arm San, this is Chai Min-yi.
Iron Arm San, you're also a hero in the martial arts world
and have participated in anti-Qing movements.
Don't you even know who Chai Min-yi is?
Master Chai, I heard your revolution in Hunan failed.
The government tried to arrest you, so you escaped to the South.
A friend from Hunan wrote to me about it. I didn't expect it to be you.
- I deserve to die! - Why did you stop my arm?
You can't hit my friend.
You are Master Chai Min-yi?
Zhu Hong-ying of the Heaven and Earth Society?
Hey, that's enough. We fell for Zhou Dong-sheng's trick.
- Where are you going? - To kill Zhou Dong-sheng!
There's no rush.
The priority now is to keep Master Chai safe.
Yes. A boat will take Master Chai from Mipu Pier.
Then he will be safe.
But the authorities will surely try to stop him.
Master Li, who do you think we are? Don't you think we can assist you?
Yes. You're right.
Follow me.
Liang Shi-gui and Zhou Dong-sheng wanted to create a rift
between Master and the others.
They resolved the matter in the end, but they weren't in luck.
What do we do now?
Find a stand-in at the port tomorrow and take the day off.
The four of us will search around for anyone suspicious.
After that, we'll report to the elders and figure out what to do.
Shouldn't we open our stall in Guangxiao Temple?
It would be conspicuous not to open it. Open it tomorrow as usual.
You can ask Iron Head for help.
Chao-ming and I will look around, then we'll meet up with you.
- Just close up earlier. - Alright.
Here it is.
Master Chen.
Master Tung, this must be Master Liang.
Yes.
Xiao-hu, this is Master Chen Wen-jie from Jinlun Hall in Upper Xiguan.
He and Chen Da-jun are distant relatives.
Ah. Master Chen.
Don't worry, he's one of us.
Take a seat.
Come on, let's play. They'll be talking for a long time.
Master Liang, don't worry.
Though Chen Da-jun and I are distant relatives,
Jinlun Hall has a close relationship with the Wudang Sect.
Besides, Master Tung is paying me well. Of course I have to try my best.
You knew my father before. Please advise me.
I wouldn't dare.
But I think I know what happened back then to your father, Master Liang,
more clearly than you may.
Please explain.
Well, Master Liang was an expert of the Wudang Sect.
His martial arts skill was extraordinary.
But the Ten Tigers figured out the misunderstanding,
so they all worked together.
MIPU PIER
Li Ren-chao, I knew you would come. I've been waiting a long time for this.
Li Ren-chao, you left the brothel too hastily last time.
We must fight properly this time.
Ren-chao, I've arranged everything.
- Just fight with him. - Very good.
I'd very much like see your Wudang Sword Technique.
That was what happened.
- I must take revenge for this. - Of course.
Otherwise, why are we here? But we are fewer in numbers.
We must trick them instead of fighting them.
Follow the original plan step by step.
Kill the young ones first, before luring out the old ones.
Don't let them deal with us all together, just like when you disturb a beehive.
- Or else, history will repeat itself. - You're right.
Since Tan Chung died tonight,
we must split up and move separately to catch them off guard.
Those from Mipu Pier should eat here in the morning.
Master Chen and I will be here to wait for Chen Da-jun.
Go to the gate of Guangxiao Temple and wait for Lin Fu-cheng and Lin Bing.
GUANGXIAO TEMPLE
Iron Head.
Everyone!
- Come and watch our performance! - Come on.
Come, Elders! Come, everyone!
Come closer to watch our performance!
And applaud if we do well! But don't be angry if we don't!
Excuse us a moment.
- Great! - Wonderful!
TREASURED FLAVORS RESTAURANT
TEA
Come on, over here.
Wait. I have urgent matters to attend to today.
- You must stand in for me today. - Fine, no problem.
I'll pay you. And this is my treat. Eat whatever you want. Don't be shy!
Oh, Da-jun! I was looking for you. I thought you'd be here.
Wen-jie, what's the matter?
Excuse me.
Come here. Come.
- Sit down. - What's the matter?
Listen, I won the lottery.
Is that so? Congratulations, you're rich!
That's why we must celebrate today.
Take the day off. After breakfast, let's have a feast.
Then let's go to Qihua Palace to admire the beauties there.
Thank you.
But I'm taking the day off today, as I have urgent matters to attend to.
What's more important than drinking at Qihua Palace?
Da-jun, go and have fun. I'll stand in for you today.
- Let's go. - Thank you.
- Everyone, please go ahead. - Alright. Come on.
Your friends are such good men.
Take a seat and have some tea. Let's talk about it.
Wen-jie, I really can't join you today.
Ah! You've already taken the day off anyway. What's so urgent?
- Come on, sit down. - I can't.
Something happened to my friend last night. I'm busy today.
- Are you refusing my invitation? - What?
Are you talking to me like this just because you won the lottery?
Master Chen, don't waste your energy on him if he doesn't appreciate it.
Oh, so you didn't win the lottery. You were told to say that.
Last night, Tan Chung died.
Today, it's your turn!
Master Chen, please leave.
If customers arrive, tell them I'm investigating a case.
- No one can come in! - Yes.
Stop looking. Just go!
So, you were the one who killed him last night.
You're very astute.
- Is your surname Liang? - Master Liang went elsewhere.
I'm sure you've heard of me, Tung Qi.
I've heard your name.
Now, let's see your kung fu skills!
I didn't give you a chance to take a weapon. I have an advantage.
In Hei-hu Sect kung fu, whatever we hold in our hand is a weapon.
Fine. Don't blame me if this fight is unfair, then.
- You can't go inside. - We're here for tea.
You can't go in. Master Tung Qi is investigating a case inside.
- Go some other place. Go on. - Alright.
Go on!
Let's go.
Someone's been killed!
- He's dead. - What a terrible death.
- Marvelous! - Amazing!
Thank you.
We got a tip.
You look like you also know kung fu.
You're right. But mine is nothing compared to yours.
You're too kind.
- Do you want to see my techniques? - Sure.
After your tip, we can close up our stall today anyway.
- Close up. - Let's go over there.
Please...
He's dead!
- He killed him! - Don't let him get away!
- Move! - Step aside!
- He did it. - I witnessed it.
Stay calm, everyone.
We're acting under secret orders, killing rebels from Shaolin.
Go back to your daily business.
If another rebel appears, you mustn't say what happened here.
If anyone dares say anything,
I'll immediately send soldiers to arrest him and punish him severely!
- Let's go. - Don't cause any trouble.
Uncle Tung Qi...
I know that Lin Fu-cheng didn't show up.
I'll stay out of sight. You stay here and see what you can do.
- Take the bodies away. - Yes, sir!
Gather round!
Let's take a look.
Stop looking. Go back to your businesses.
Where's Lin Fu-cheng?
- Who's looking for Lin Fu-cheng? - I am...
- Oh, I came to see Lin Fu-cheng. - And Lin Bing.
They're both attending their friend's funeral, so they're not here.
They asked me to stand in for them today.
May I ask for your name?
I'm Lin Xiao-hu.
Your surname is Lin as well?
Oh, don't try to trick me. We're cousins.
Oh! There are so many people with the surname Lin.
That's right.
It's a major family name.
Why are you looking for Lin Fu-cheng?
We agreed to learn from each other's kung fu.
Oh? What kung fu? Maybe I can fight with you.
Well, Lin Fu-cheng's kung fu is incredible.
He's Iron Arm San's disciple.
After he died, he learned from Beggar Su.
Lin Bing is Wang Yin-lin's favorite disciple.
They both know half of the Ten Tigers of Kwangtung's kung fu.
Ah, that's right. Lin Fu-cheng is indeed amazing.
Of course. He's incredible.
Hey...
Since you're also from the Lin family,
speaking of the Ten Tigers of Kwangtung's kung fu...
Speaking of the Ten Tigers of Kwangtung's kung fu, I know a little.
That's great!
The two of us are great admirers of their kung fu.
Watch this.
What are you doing?
Thank you.
This is Iron Arm San's kung fu.
His horse stance is stable and he has arms of iron.
This is how he practiced and got the nickname Iron Arm.
- Try it. - Yes.
Thank you.
- Light them for me. - Sure.
Don't move.
There's plenty of smoke, isn't there? Just close your eyes.
Keep going. Can you withstand it?
- Why can't you do it? - Why did you burn me?
You're not focused enough.
I don't think you can learn Iron Arm San's kung fu.
Instead, let's learn Wang Yin-lin's Lama Sect kung fu.
Fun, isn't it?
Listen, the Lama Sect's pile formation is different from other piles.
It's in the shape of the Big Dipper.
There are no wooden piles here, so we'll use wine jars as a substitute.
Hey! What are you doing?
Thank you.
Come on.
Stand here.
Let's have a look.
Come on.
- What are you doing? - Let's practice Beggar Su's kung fu.
Let's go.
Don't be scared. It'll help train your kung fu.
Kung fu training is arduous.
I can tell you now. I'm Lin Fu-cheng.
My co-disciple is Wang Chao-ming.
He's the son of Master Wang Yin-lin.
So, you lied to me.
You didn't give me the chance of a fair fight.
A fair fight?
When you killed people, did you give them a chance?
Let's go. The authorities might arrive.
- Get him down. - Yes, sir!
- Did you understand my instructions? - Yes.
We can't always be at your side.
In luring Tung Qi out, you must act according to the circumstances.
- Understood. - Go, then.

KUAN FENG as TUNG BA
Come on, place your bets!
Place all bets. Come on.
Place your bets.
Open!
- I won! - Three, four, six. Thirteen, big!
It's a big win.
- Why are you stealing my money? - Who's stealing from you? I'll beat you up!
Fu-cheng, so many things have happened here recently and you're still fighting?
You idiot!
- Do we still need to eat? - Of course!
- We need to eat and also to fight. - Why, you...
- You're really something! - I'm a person, not a thing!
Alright!
You broke my stool.
Stop pretending! Wang Chao-ming and Lin Fu-cheng, I know who you are.
So what? Let's fight for real, then!
That was foolish of me.
If Tung Qi is here, of course Tung Ba would be here, too.
You're no fool. I am Tung Ba.
Catch!
