Heat.

[Applause]

[Music]

Heat.

Heat.

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

You said to meet you tonight, midnight,

June the 6th. Well, I'm on time.

What do you want?

>> Your life. I'm afraid that today you

have to die.

Cut the talk.

>> Where's your sword?

>> I don't need one. Not for this fight.

So, I didn't bring one.

So, you think you're that good?

Well, all right then. We'll play your

way first.

[Music]

Hey, hey,

hey.

You give me one blow, I'll give you two

back.

Fight.

[Music]

M Singh Hong's dead. Where?

>> By Willow Bridge. It seems a one-armed

fighter killed him there.

>> M was a damn good fighter.

Who was this one-armed man then?

>> Don't know. He uses a special kung fu

technique. And what's more, he also

killed Lous.

>> Oh,

where is he?

>> Lan Valley.

[Music]

[Music]

The chestman ready, sir.

Move the cannon.

[Music]

>> Move knight to protect king.

>> Get out of here. Go on. Get out.

Stupid fool.

[Music]

Ready, sir.

Jump one.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Huh?

>> Huh? You're the one man. We've been

waiting for you all day. We're going to

kill you.

>> You use men instead of chessmen. No

value for human life. It's your chief

who ought to die.

>> You killed Ming Hung.

>> I did. He killed a man once and all his

family.

>> Do you know Ming Hung was my relation?

>> I know that you're related to many

fighters.

He was your son-in-law.

Huh?

Well, let's start. Will you choose kung

fu or chess? If we must contest,

I'll choose chess.

You'll take black.

I'll take white. All right. And the

loser must kill himself.

I have no quarrel with you, and I don't

want to play chess. If you'll excuse me.

Hold it. I'm not giving you a choice.

Well, all right then. But who has the

advantage of the first move, though?

You.

>> I'm oldest, so I'll start.

>> All right.

The men ready,

>> sir? It's your idea.

Cannon, move.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

My flying knight takes your man.

>> You know, a knight's not supposed to

fly.

>> Yeah, well, neither is a marshall

either.

>> Hold it. You get back.

I need no help to fight you.

>> I'm young, you're old, and I have no

wish to kill you. Goodbye.

Stop.

Both Mong and Lu Along were followers of

Chu. You're not involved in this. So, I

only want you to tell me where I can

find Chu now. You tell me that, then

I'll leave.

>> Sorry, I don't know.

>> Well, I'll take your word for that.

I trust you.

[Music]

He's young man and he's trusting. I lied

to him and I was defeated by him. I've

lost my reputation. All my men have seen

what happened to me here.

There's only one thing to do.

[Music]

Master,

what? Are you sure of that? That one

armed man mentioned my name?

>> Yes, sir. Hand killed Mong and Lou

deliberately picked a fight.

>> You know what his background is?

>> Not yet.

>> H. They belong to my clan. And the Chu

clan is the most powerful there is. I

have some of the finest fighters. And

nobody goes against me. Not if they want

to live. And now some onearmed nobody

comes to challenge me.

>> Sir Tala

Mo here.

>> Tang,

you will issue orders. I must find out

who this one man is. And quickly, too,

sir.

Soft green mountains

and blue waters.

It really makes a beautiful picture,

doesn't it?

>> You're right. And it's getting late, so

we can watch the sunset together.

>> I had thought of that. In fact, that's

why I brought you.

>> I'm very moved.

>> Well, in that case, see it with me every

day.

>> You really love me that much, do you?

>> I swear to you, by God, I do love you.

That's why I'm doing this,

to prove to you. I'm just sorry I had to

do this to you.

>> Yes. Tying me up out here doesn't really

make me like you very much at all.

>> Promise to be my concubine. If you do,

I'll let you go.

>> I won't.

>> You won't?

I'll leave you here for another 24 hours

to let you think. Once you find out how

hot it can get, you may change your

mind. So, I'll come back here at the

same time tomorrow.

>> You evil beast.

>> No, I'm not. If I really was, then I'd

have raped you.

See you.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

Don't you feel too hot like that? It's

warm.

>> Well, now if you were me, wouldn't you

feel hot?

>> Like some help?

>> If you like, help me. If you don't, then

don't.

[Music]

I must thank you.

>> Thank me if you like. If you don't,

forget it.

Who was it who did such a thing to you?

>> Yisu

Sue

Chu clan

[Music]

drink out

here.

>> Hey, come on. Some food, huh? Hey,

what's good?

>> Well, all right. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.

[Music]

>> There's a visitor.

>> Where is he?

>> Downstairs.

>> Bring him up.

>> Yes.

>> Come on. Come on. Hey, have another

drink there.

Sure.

Come on.

That's

>> you looking for me? Well, tell me, she

ready to come and live with me?

>> If she does, I don't care. Have you got

an elder brother?

>> Right. One of the best swordsmen alive.

>> Sorry. I'm afraid he met a better one

and got himself killed.

Huh?

>> Now, I must tell you, your brother

wasn't all that good a swordsman.

Neither are you.

Come on.

No.

Hi.

Huh?

Yeah.

Hey,

hey, hey,

hey, hey.

[Laughter]

Keep your hands off me. Just being

friendly.

[Music]

What are you doing counting to me?

>> Practicing kung fu.

>> Who are you?

>> My name is Wong. I'm Wie's brother.

Heard of him?

>> So then you're Wong Pong,

>> right? Sometimes known as a turtle.

>> Suits you.

[Music]

No antidote for that poison. You're

going to die.

[Music]

How you feel?

>> Lousy.

>> I think there's a doctor nearby. I'll

take you.

>> Right.

[Music]

>> But that poison is a particularly bad

one. Deadly.

2 hours time he'd have been dead.

So then he's lucky.

Now, miss, come here.

>> Huh? Give him this.

That ought to help stop the pain and

partially neutralize the poison.

But he'll still need some medicine. Take

with water.

[Music]

You you

fool. You are finished.

>> But what do you mean?

>> Well, that other stuff wasn't deadly at

all. Just made him feel faint. He would

have been all right in a very short

time, but that pill of mine was

different. And even I with all the skill

that I have couldn't cure him now.

In fact, he has about one minute to

live.

[Music]

You didn't swallow it.

The one clan are not poisonous. The Chu

clan does have an expert and you were

that expert.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

You saved me.

>> You saved me. Least I could do.

So, let's leave it at that. We saved

each other.

[Music]

Oh, are you hungry? Right. Come on.

Let's eat.

Sit.

[Applause]

>> What's your name?

>> Name's Lan.

Oh, first name Sulan Lan.

>> Sulan Lan. Pretty name that

suits you too.

>> You haven't told me what your name is.

>> I'm sorry.

[Music]

My name's Lou. My full name is Lu Yi Su.

>> Oh, where are you going?

>> Well, in fact, I don't know. I have no

family now

and no home.

So then I have no idea.

[Music]

Maybe if you didn't mind

just for a while I could go with you.

Well, I don't know. Could be risky for

you.

Not a good idea.

>> I see. You don't want me.

>> Hey,

[Music]

>> who are you?

>> I'm Lu Sancho.

>> I'm Lu Sanchu.

>> They say that you killed Y and Wangpa.

[Music]

This onearmed man. You traced his

background yet?

>> Nope.

>> You any idea where he is now?

>> All we know is that he's still in the

country.

>> Sluter.

>> He's already started.

>> That's good.

[Music]

Your choose top killer, Lutacha.

>> You're right,

cat.

Who are you?

>> Name's Chow Toe. Pleased to help you

out.

>> Well, all right. Why did you help me?

You don't know me.

>> Cuz Chu's killers

are after me, too.

>> You have a grudge against Chu

>> from way back.

>> You any idea where Chu is now?

I've looked for him in every damn

province. But I know someone who maybe

could help. Perhaps you ought to go and

see him.

>> Who? He's called King Rat. He knows most

things that go on around here.

>> King Rat? H? Why didn't you ask?

>> I tried it. Wouldn't tell me. Threatened

him. He still said no.

>> Where is he? I'd like to try.

Well, there's a dowist fortune teller

who might just know that. Huh? He may

not tell you. Too scared. In case they

kill him. Well, I have to try. Lots of

luck.

[Music]

Here's

some customers. Well, now shall I tell

your fortune?

>> Well, that's not why we're here.

>> Oh. Oh.

Well, what do you want? a man.

>> Well, all right then. You give me a clue

and I'll guess who

[Music]

the king read.

[Music]

What do you want with him?

>> I'm sorry. That's my business.

>> Oh,

all right. I'll take you there.

>> There. See snake hook. Just watch. See,

that particular technique is called the

snake hook.

>> Yeah. Why?

>> Well, all right. I'll show you. Huh?

There. See?

>> You watch that.

>> What else? This is King Rat's town.

>> Watch it. Huh?

What?

See?

>> Oh, you want to talk to King Rat? Hey,

look who

>> you King Rat. Yes, I am.

>> Where's Chuchi Jew?

>> Huh? Choo choo.

Well, now telling you risky. Why do you

want him?

>> Just want to talk.

>> Huh? I'm what?

Hey, speak

>> a killing.

>> Tell me where he is and I'll reward you.

Well,

>> right.

Well, all right. As you're willing to

pay. Good. Then meet me at the flower

pavilion at midnight.

[Music]

That's strange. It's way past midnight

and still not here. I mean, he did

promise.

[Music]

Where's our boss?

>> Afraid somebody murdered him.

>> Huh? You did?

>> Why should I? It was Yan Sin who killed

him.

Y is a spy for Chu. Call him out here.

>> Don't believe him. He's the one you

want, right? Avenger boss.

[Music]

Unless you want to die, you better back

off.

>> Let's go.

>> Where's the girl been taken?

>> I don't know.

>> Well, where's Chu?

>> I don't know.

Go on, please.

[Music]

>> Joey Toto, so it's you.

>> It's me.

>> Well, tell me why you killed Hansen

then.

Talk.

Because I found out that he works for

Chu and because he was the one that

killed King Rat. So I decided that it

was time that he died. But where's the

girl?

>> Huh? I see no girl here.

>> Why do you hate you? What's he done?

I fight good.

I'm an expert.

So 5 years ago, Chu invited me to work

for him as a killer. I refused.

[Music]

And what is it he did to you to make you

hate him so much?

My father was a loyal minister.

And then when General Hoe was planning

his rebellion, he asked Dad to join, but

dad refused cuz General Ho then went and

hired Chuchchi Jew. Chu had a reputation

as a top assassin.

Chu took his men, nine of them,

and they wiped out most of my family.

And all in all, they killed 80 of my

relations in one night. Huh?

And how did you lose your arm?

a best friend. Caught me off my guard,

that's all. Oh,

>> so then from then on, you trust no one.

>> Well, you'll have to be good to beat

you, for he fights damn well, but we

could get him together. What do you say?

>> Ah, no thanks. I prefer to work alone.

>> Right. Then we'll see who gets to him

first.

Chowito,

>> who are you?

>> I am Taiiwa and I'm one of Chu's men. He

gave me personal orders to kill you.

>> You

>> come outside. Get a clear space.

[Music]

Huh? They made a mistake. They all told

me you were good. They were wrong.

Is that so? I'll make you eat those

words.

[Music]

You work for Chew, huh?

[Music]

[Music]

All right, friends. Don't look like

that.

I don't want to fight.

>> I feel you're not a good man.

>> Well, before I was actually born. I was

then, but not since.

>> Who are you?

>> Your friend.

>> Don't want to seem rude.

But I don't need any friends right now.

>> But then you will someday. And the day

you do, I'll be there. I shall suddenly

appear.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

There's the sound of death in the way

you play.

Seems to me there's hatred in your

heart,

but perhaps I'm wrong.

Anyway, you're waiting for somebody.

[Music]

>> You're nearly right.

>> Well, I won't bother you.

I think you're looking for someone.

>> And how did you know that?

>> I don't think that's important. I simply

know.

>> All right. So, tell me then.

>> The man is at Shenshu Monastery.

His name's Monua,

and he'll tell you anything that you

want. You just have to ask him.

But still, why should I trust you?

>> Well, you don't have much choice, do

you?

>> Goodbye.

>> Thanks.

[Music]

>> You mean he killed Tai? He actually

killed Tai Lee Quai?

>> Yes. Tell me, Mo, do you know why he's

killing all our men like this?

>> They say that he's the son of Minister

Low.

>> That's right. The son of the late

minister. The only one of the family to

escape. That's why he has to die.

>> Right.

>> Any idea where he is now?

>> He's heading for Shenshu Temple.

>> And where's Tanghan?

Well, now I'm not sure, but he was

supposed to be trailing him, waiting for

a chance to get in.

>> Well, I can't wait for that. We have to

act now. Pass the word to all our men. I

want that onearmed man killed and fast,

sir.

[Music]

Well, my friend, so you came. I've been

waiting quite a while.

Now, let me guess.

You must be Fu Paisu.

>> You've heard of me?

>> Sure I have.

The man who in one stormy night killed

seven top fighters. My fist will do.

We'll see.

[Applause]

Let's go up.

[Music]

Well, now that's a good blade. You use

it well.

[Music]

[Music]

[Laughter]

Oh,

the heroic one. That right.

And you're the brave one then. That

right.

You're the gentleman. That right.

Oh, right. The man who won't bow. That

right.

>> Right.

The Chew Clan 4 killers.

>> Hey, he recognizes us.

Hey,

hey,

[Music]

hey.

Killers, huh? What a joke, huh?

>> You should be called the four chew clan

clowns. Don't you agree?

[Music]

>> Yes. Yes, we agree.

[Music]

Hey, who do you want?

>> Sorry, got the wrong place.

>> Which place do you want?

>> Shen Temple.

>> This is it.

>> I want monk. You are he here?

>> What's your business?

>> Someone told me that he could give me

some information.

>> He's gone. Well, finding you here. I

assumed he'd left.

>> I am monk you are. I won't tell you

anything, but I'll kill you.

>> You're not a monk.

>> Oh, why not?

>> If you're a monk, temples must have

changed a lot.

>> He is a monk.

[Music]

What's more, he is a man,

yet also a girl.

Let's say just a little of both

>> and a friend of mine.

>> Oh, so then you're a Yang Chi,

>> right?

One time I was a nun,

but then I left the convent.

Now I live with him. But still, why'd

you send me here?

>> I couldn't kill you by myself,

so I needed some help. I do better than

my friend. Simple.

>> You were wrong. You two can't kill me.

>> That's what you think. You've too much

confidence. You only have one hand.

>> Between us, we've got four, right?

Hey

hey.

Don't look. I'm shy.

>> You disgusting creature.

Hey,

hey,

hey.

[Music]

Hey,

[Music]

heat. Hey.

[Music]

you again. Why are you always hanging

around?

>> Well, that's simple. Because I'm your

friend.

>> I told you you're not.

If I were to tell you

where you could find your enemies,

would you change your mind and take me

as your friend?

Sure.

In that case, I would. Then I'm your

friend.

To celebrate, let's drink.

All right.

[Music]

>> Yeah.

Three years ago, Chu was hired to kill

your family.

>> And he did it.

>> Not alone.

>> He took nine of his best men.

>> Who were

>> Mong Singh? Who? Luong, Lu Yen, Yansi

Su. You are, aren't you, Lu?

>> Fu, and Muf do. And one more.

>> And just who was this other one?

>> What's his name?

sir.

>> He's Tang Han. He didn't want to go,

>> but Chu made him.

>> Matter of fact, I've killed five of

them,

>> you know.

>> Sure. There's still Chulu, Mufo, Luen,

and Tanghan. Just four.

>> Would you like to know where they are?

>> Yes, I would.

>> Muf do stays in the camp and Chulu in

the brothel.

Lu Yen lives alone.

>> And Tang,

>> I'm afraid I don't know.

>> Oh, I think you kill Chulu first

and then go to Chinan to get Lu Yen.

After you get them, I'll wait for you at

Piscy Po

and tell you the next one you ought to

kill.

Do you know which brothel Chulu goes to

>> Springhouse?

>> Quiet early tonight.

>> He'll be there.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

>> Good night. Come, kid.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

Thank you, sir.

Thank you. Come again.

[Applause]

>> Huh?

>> Oh, sir. Oh, it's here, sir. Welcome,

Mr. Chu. Please come in.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Hey, Mr. Choose here.

>> This one's nice. I'll take

>> Well, all right. Enjoy yourself.

>> Well, so then you're here watching.

>> Same is

>> Please come in, Mr. Ch.

>> I'm new here. Never been here before.

And one girl is enough for me. So pick a

girl and anyone will do for me.

>> A client su.

>> Well, I noticed you've only one arm. Too

bad. With two, you'd handle more.

>> Oh, go on. Entertain, I guess.

[Applause]

>> Oh, look after your client now. Huh?

>> Sure. Please, sir. Come with me.

to the door.

>> Yes, ma'am.

>> This way.

>> Go on, don't stay like that. Come in.

Come inside. It's much more interesting

there. Come on.

>> Well, come on. Let's undress.

>> No, thank you. I'm on business.

>> Sure. I mean, we're both on business,

but to do it, we have to undress.

>> Well, when I said business, I didn't

mean that.

>> Well, you can call it what you want. As

for me, I call it fun. Now, let's not

waste time.

>> Right. Get undressed.

>> Sure.

[Music]

Hey,

[Music]

looking for me.

>> Seems you finished your business.

>> Well, now that didn't take too long.

Well, it seems

she failed. I guess she's dead. And now

you've come here for me. Is that right?

>> Right.

Hey,

hey,

hey, hey.

Get out of my

head.

[Music]

Hey,

I want Mr. Lou. Is he home?

>> You a swordsman?

>> No, I'm just a traveler.

>> You got business with him?

>> Of course. Sure I have. Take me.

[Music]

Master, a visitor.

[Music]

Well, you must be the one who escaped

us. It's a pity we missed you.

>> You still remember the affair?

And now you've retired and live up here.

[Laughter]

>> Well, I've retired from fighting, but

since you insist, I guess that I'll need

my sword again.

>> Sir, bring the sword.

I must admit that's long.

How long?

>> 6 ft.

>> Width?

>> About 12 in.

>> Well, Mr. Lou, that's a great sword you

have there.

>> Sure it is. It's the best. And there's

none better. For sure.

And in a very short time, you're going

to find out how great it is.

Size of sword doesn't matter.

I shall let you use two more blades.

>> After that, no more chances. Then I

shall kill you.

What really counts isn't the sword, only

the man

in every case.

[Music]

Master, you love swords, but finally

your own sword killed you.

[Music]

Very good. So, you killed another two of

them.

Tonghan, you can kill any of the others,

but you can't kill him.

Huh? It seems I was right. You must be

Tang Han.

>> Yes, you're right. I'm Tanghan. You'd

kill me, huh? That's what I said.

But you won't. If you do, you'll never

find Chu.

>> How do I know? But you'll tell me.

>> I'm finished with you.

>> I doubt it.

>> And why is that?

Well, because it makes no sense

for a killer to work for the Jews is a

real honor. And a well- paid honor. They

all get rich. You're with them. So why

give up your chance? You're right. As a

killer, it's good to work for him. Pay

is better than anything else. But Chu

was real unfair to me. He always favored

Fui or else. It was Mr. Lou.

I never get the good jobs. Always. I get

the crap. I know that he despises me.

And what's more, he doesn't trust his

men. He never tells him a thing unless

he has to.

So if you were me, I tell you, you'd

betray him.

What's more, there's something else.

>> What would that be? Well, once that

you've get rid of you and the other two,

then all the leaders will be dead and

I'll take control and you forget me. Do

you agree? Oh,

so that's the reason you've been helping

me. I see you want to take the

leadership.

>> Of course. I planned it for a long time.

I didn't help you for nothing. Well,

that's fair,

>> right? I'll forget the past.

But now, where can I find the girl?

>> Well, she's being kept prisoner by Syi.

I'll take you there. And that ought to

prove to you that I really am on your

side.

>> You You are sure that Tanghan has turned

traitor?

>> Yes, I am. He's a very smart man. But

I'm afraid this time he's been a bit too

smart. Maido,

>> sir, I'm sure Tang's next step will be

to take the one-armed man to South. You

know what to do. Capture him. I'll kill

him.

[Music]

[Applause]

Tong Han, been waiting for you. You've

betrayed the clan.

>> I'm sorry. We all have our price.

And so you're the one who killed my

brother. That right?

>> Yes, I did.

Where have you got the girl?

[Music]

Well, if you can beat me, you can have

the girl. But if you can't, then you'll

be dead. Hey,

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

huh?

It seems you need a few music lessons.

[Music]

You

Where's the girl?

>> Come with me.

>> There.

I knew you'd come. Thank you.

>> That's all right.

>> Now, you take me to Chew H.

[Music]

>> Oh, wait.

You shouldn't take her.

>> Me? Why not? because it's much too

dangerous. Choose tough. Make no

mistake,

[Music]

>> you had that coming to you.

>> You must be MF do.

Yeah, that's right. And when I throw, I

never miss.

[Music]

That may be, but the fact is you got no

knives left now, have you?

>> We'll see.

[Music]

Tell me where to find shoe.

If I tell you this family me, let me go.

>> Tell me

at South Mountain by the white Buddha,

you you let me go.

>> Is that the truth?

>> Yes. Yes, it is. It It's true. Now,

please spare my life. Please spare me.

>> You killed my family. You spared no one.

Go back to the hotel. I'm going for Chu.

Wait there.

[Music]

>> All right.

[Music]

Hallelujah.

Hey,

you can't come in here.

[Music]

Yeah,

[Music]

You come on out.

[Music]

Juju Joe, come out.

[Music]

Chiao toe. It's you.

[Music]

Right.

So then you're alive.

That man that you saw being killed was a

substitute who was hiding there.

Why did you kill Lucata?

>> Well, no. I had no idea why you were

after me. So I simply killed him in

order to get your trust. After that, you

told me why you wanted to kill me.

So then that story you told me, it was a

lie.

Why, of course. I'm a very good liar and

you believed every word. You sneaky

bastard.

A killer has got to be sneaky.

Otherwise, he won't survive.

You mean to kill me?

>> No, I don't. You're not Chew. Why should

I kill you?

>> But I am Chew.

>> Well, Chu has only nine fingers.

And you have 10. So you can't beat Chu.

Chuju, come out.

An attack from behind. Eh, I expected

better.

I'm good at it. Must kill you or you'll

kill me. But I'll cut you nine times

first.

I understand.

That's one cut for every man that I

killed. So you are true then.

not nine fingers.

You killed all of my men. my best

fighters. I promise you this. You suffer
