Original subtitles

Good morning, great grandpa.

Our Chang family has been

in the bone setter diagnosis business

for several generations.

Each ancestor would pass on his business

to his descendants

at his retirement age

and would lead an easy life from then onwards.

But my old man grows more energetic as he ages.

He has his hands in everything

and I've been treated like a fool.

It's really hard for me to accept this.

But I don't dare go against him.

After all, I have to be filial.

I'm sorry for all the complaints this morning.

I know I was wrong, please forgive me.

If you have time please tell my old man in a dream

not to treat me too harshly, time changes.

All these foreigners

are swarming our doors

causing a lot of troubles.

He...

Shhh...

He's awake.

Dad, you're awake.

Dad, have a smoke.

Why are you in such a hurry, can't you see I'm busy?

Alright...later...later...

The older the more impatient.

Hey...be careful...don't break it.

Don't worry, there's nothing new

I've been juggling with it for so many years.

Dad, have some tea.

Ah...drink it.

The first thing in the morning is to stretch the legs

exercise your body, be healthy

exercise hands and feet, activate circulation.

My son.

Dad.

Who's winning?

"Chang Tak Tai Clinic"

Dad, it's late now.

Uncle Jiang is waiting for you at the tea house.

Siu Tai, take care of business.

Yes, I'll open the door for you.

Be careful in diagnosis and prescribing, don't mess up.

Yes, I understand.

Remember that.

What are you foreigners here for?

Go away.

This way please.

It's good...

Mr. Powell has good taste.

Mr. Chun.

This Buddha statue is really great.

Yes.

It'll be a great birthday gift

for Mr. Powell.

No doubt about that.

What do you think you are doing?

You'll offend goddess of Mercy.

What's he speaking?

He's sick.

This is unseemly.

Mind your own business.

Can Goddess save you?

Well...

I am asking you whether Goddess

can save you from being beaten up?

Well...

You are nothing but a gang of naive villagers.

You...

I've just given him a good scolding.

They are all stupid.

You bastards.

Well done.

Hurry...

We are very late.

My dad will surely beat me to death, hurry...

Are you alright?

Don't move, she might have broken her leg.

Like this you may cause a fracture

and she may be crippled.

What? Crippled.

Kid, you know nothing.

I do know.

He mightn't have heard of the name Chang Tak Tai.

Right...

Chang Tak Tai Clinic is famous.

Yes...

Robert, I know him.

You are the son of Master Chang.

Please help.

That's better.

What are you doing?

Setting the broken bones.

Bullshit, without taking a x-ray

how can you be sure that she has broken bones?

X-ray?

X...ray...what is it?

Of course you don't know.

Looks like you know nothing at all.

Stop pretending.

Alright...let's go.

Go.

Wait.

Master Chang, please help.

It's a mere bone dislocation; no big deal.

Even if it's broken into pieces

I can still set it right.

Yes.

Find two twigs for me.

Alright. - Wait

Sam, you are a civilized and an educated chap.

How can you trust someone

without a trace of medical knowledge?

Chinese medicine has a history of over 1000 years.

There's nothing bad about it.

Judy, what do you say?

It doesn't matter who it is.

Hurry, I'll soon die of pain.

Hurry.

Come, help find some twigs.

Alright.

Bear it, don't yell.

Where did you get that bad habit.

It's dangerous for a girl to learn horse-riding.

Bear it, don't yell.

Found it.

Bear the pain.

I...

Yes.

It's alright for now.

Remember to get medication from Chang Tak Tai Clinic.

Yes.

Don't forget. - Thank you.

Alright.

That's bad.

What happened?

I'm in deep trouble, let's go...

Go...

Hurry...

It's so late now, it's not yet opened.

That's right, it wasn't like this before.

What's going on?

Master Chang...

Master Chang, what's going on?

How come it's not yet opened?

Sorry, please make way.

Make way...

This kid is disappointing.

Kid, open the door.

Open up...

Hurry and open...

Open up...

Open up.

Open up.

Hurry and open...

It's opened.

Stand still.

You are so reckless.

When I am not here, you either go out

or go to sleep at home.

Dad, I didn't.

No?

Master Chang. - Dad, have some herbal tea.

Dad.

You kid... - This tea can help you calm down.

Drink it, and calm down. - Damn you.

Yes...

What, you want take advantage of me?

I saw you trip.

You...

Drink it, Dad.

I won't spare you.

Have another bowl, dad, drink.

Alright, I'll drink.

I'll settle with you after this.

Take a picture, everybody smile.

Turn your head a bit.

Good.

Ready.

One.

Two.

Three.

Good.

It's done.

It's done...

Welcome...

Everybody, inside please...

Please...

Please...

This house is big.

Thank you. - Not bad.

Mr. John, have a seat please. - Alright.

Have a seat.

No need to stand on ceremony, have a seat.

How come it takes so long, is it ready yet?

Hurry. - Almost...look that way.

OK

Thank you.

Scared me.

Thank you...

Robert, you're in such good mood for taking pictures.

Keeping your loved one company.

No wonder I couldn't find you.

Shum Shao Ling.

Nonsense. I'm just seeing how bad he's been wounded.

Don't deny it.

What did Doctor Yang say about your sister's leg?

He said Master Chang is a highly skilled physician.

It's lucky that my sister's leg is treated in time

or else she'll be in great trouble.

Thank God. - That's right.

Sam, what else did Doctor Yang say?

Doctor Yang said...

He mentioned about the Chinese medical equipment

as too unrefined, and unhygienic.

People will get infected easily and die.

Remember I've mentioned earlier to Chairman Tang about

doing business with my boss Powell

and also that birthday gift issue.

How's it going?

Good...

Chairman Tang, I'm sure you can do it.

There shouldn't be problems with it.

Mr. John, don't worry.

Mr. Powell regarded the Tung Fat Temple Goddess statue

as a work of art.

No problem about that.

We are honoured.

Don't worry, no problem at all.

Please tell Mr. Powell

that I'll have it settled.

Thank you... - Chairman Tang, we are doing you a favour.

Thank you...

Dad, those villagers are not easy to handle.

We dealt with them before.

I hear that Master Chang who runs a martial art school

is backing and supporting them.

Robert won't fear them; Fists are no match for guns.

No, we can't use guns.

I have a plan to kill two birds with one stone.

Firstly...to the government, we'll say that

Buddha worship is superstition and must be abolished.

I believe the government

would respect us.

We are among friends, it's okay.

Alright.

Secondly, we'll let those martial arts school people

realize that there's no big deal about

fist fighting, or sword fighting.

Find an opportunity

and let them try that...That so called...

Boxing.

Boxing is fearsome.

You must be Master Jiang.

What can I do for you?

No need to stand on ceremony.

The fist fighters from our Hwa-Yi Association

appreciate very much your kung fu

and would like to have a match with you.

What do you mean?

We practise kung fu to strengthen our body

and we never fight with anybody.

The time and place for the match

have clearly been written in this letter.

Master Jiang, you are a renowned instructor

I respect you very much

you have no reason to refuse the challenge.

Don't say that, I am a villager myself and I am

responsible for the peace and safety of the villagers.

Master Jiang, you'll make us Chinese lose face

if you don't accept the challenge. - Then you are...

Alright, that'll be all, see you tomorrow.

Alright.

Ah Jia, find Master Chang.

"Chang Tak Tai Clinic"

What are you looking at?

Doctor Chang, is my son's illness fatal?

Is it hopeless?

Definitely.

No achievement, no hope.

It's useless unless you find the root of reed in winter.

Yes.

Sugar cane in third year of Jinshang.

Yes.

A pair of crickets.

Yes.

Also, half an egg hatched by a cock.

Half an egg.

Yes, half.

Where could we find such a thing?

Son you're dead.

Once he reaches home he must stop taking opium

otherwise he's as good as dead.

I can't cure such a sickness.

Go back...please.

Son, don't ever take opium again.

You are our only child.

I want you to cut the opium habit at once.

Good for nothing.

The way you do it you'll cut off your finger

before you could stop.

Don't worry, I handle this knife well.

As soon as my finger touches it, it will...

Hey.

You should protect your body, a gift from your parents.

Don't worry, I'll demonstrate for you.

See, I'm young and agile

and never make a mistake.

Not necessarily, I'm going to take a rest

look after the shop.

Dad, please.

Let's go.

Go.

Is Master Chang at home?

No, you can talk to me just the same.

He's Chang's kid.

I am Chang Siu Tai

not called 'Chang's kid'.

You are his son

so there's nothing wrong in calling you that.

You...

Brothers, stop.

We're here for Master Chang.

Who cares what you are called!

Siu Tai.

Sorry, I in fact haven't gone out.

Look at you, kid, you've grown up.

Yet you never talk seriously.

Gentlemen, what do you want with me?

Master Chang.

Let's go inside and talk.

Come, please...

Master Jiang has asked us to tell you

there's a duel with the foreigners

tomorrow afternoon at Tung Fat Temple.

Tell Master Jiang I'll be there on time.

Yes.

"Chief of the Buddha protection group"

Someone's causing trouble at Master Jiang's school

I'll look into it tomorrow.

You look after the shop.

Dad, frankly, why bother with

such trivial matters?

I can take care of them just the same.

You can?

Frankly, dad

what do you think of me?

Nothing much, neither here nor there.

Really?

I'm not saying I'm great.

Nobody here will admit that he's number two.

Without credibility, you can't claim #1 position, right.

You know what?

You say I am nothing much.

But regardless of how good I am

I can never be as great as you.

Soak your feet.

No.

Spider, spices

two ounces each, crush them, powerful enough.

Two ounces Sing Ma too.

Almost.

Please forgive me.

Dad, you are dressed up.

Dad, have some tea.

Okay.

Siu Tai, what's up?

Nothing.

You drink it.

Siu Tai, if I'm quick I'll be back by noon.

I'll be back latest before it's dark.

Behave yourself.

Dad, don't worry.

Siu Tai...

Dad, it's okay.

One must admit one is old.

How can the old compare with us young fellows?

I'll take you to your room.

You...weigh a lot.

Dad, be good.

Sleep here for a while and it'll be okay.

I'll take care of your business for you.

"Tung Fat Temple"

Siu Tai, where's your dad?

He's unwell, I've come in his place.

How can this be?

I'll be responsible for everything.

Siu Tai, you can't help with this.

I'll do whatever it takes.

I don't care how fierce he is.

I'll let him regret.

They're here.

Coming.

Siu Tai, be careful.

Don't worry.

Folks, you know that

the peace of the village depends

on everyone of us.

I, Chang Siu Tai, am not made

of iron or steel

but the duel today demonstrates

to all of us

we can't back down.

Right...

Hit the gong.

Hit him...

More power.

Good...

Siu Tai, do your best.

Siu Tai.

Master Jiang, this foreigner smells bad

it's unbearable.

Don't be proud, he is difficult to deal with.

Be careful.

Don't worry, I'll handle him.

Go...

Is he okay?

Chairman Tang, don't worry.

Johnny will beat him.

Don't worry.

Johnny, get up...

Come on...

Come on...

Siu Tai, get up.

Judy.

Come on...

Robert, stay calm.

Siu Tai...

Great...

"All Ancestor of Chang"

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

It's unfilial of me to put in an overdose of anesthetic

and thus cause your death, dad!

Dad

I am so sorry I killed you.

I ought to be punished...

Dad...

Dad...

Shut up, go.

Dad.

Dad, I am Siu Tai.

What are you doing? Don't come near.

Vampire.

Wait.

I'll call the heavens.

Great and small gods.

My saviour Priest Chang, come to help me.

Dad, don't come near, please.

Don't come near.

Dad...

I'm Siu Tai, let me go.

Dad.

Dad, be careful.

Mind your step, careful.

Don't come near.

Help...

Help.

It's good for you.

You bloody kid.

I have seen much more

of the world than you.

You dare to drug me

and steal my glory?

Are you worthy of this?

Damn.

I wanted you to have a rest

and to take care of it for you.

You know what?

Every time I drink tea

I don't swallow, that's because

if the tea were drugged, I'd know at once.

This is a trick, remember that.

But I saw you swallow the second mouthful.

Yes I did

but as soon as you turned your face

I used my inner strength

to force it all out.

Hence I was only slightly drugged.

You scared me with your pretence.

You could have scared me to death.

I am your only son, if I die...

What if I did?

If I don't teach you a lesson

you'll rebel.

"Chamber of Commerce, Kwangtung Province"

Mr. Yamaguchi, please.

Please.

This way.

Please wait.

Chairman, as soon as they alighted

they came here.

Gentlemen, you've had a hard journey.

Yamaguchi.

Tomoasa.

Marutatsu.

Hashimoto.

Matsuzaka.

Miyagami.

Koyama.

I'll speak a few words on behalf of the brothers.

Thanks to Mr. Tang

we've been brought to China at a hefty price

but Mr. Tang doesn't quite know yet

what Japanese Kendo is like.

Nor do you all, if I may add.

So we'd like to give you

a demonstration.

If you're not satisfied, we'll return to Japan at once.

You beast.

Fool.

Thank you, brother.

Fool.

Thank you for showing me.

Come on...

It seems they're fighting for real.

That's samurai spirit.

Come on.

Good.

Mr. Tang, please.

Our power will be so much

enhanced because of

adding you to our team.

Yes.

Robert, order the kitchen to prepare a feast.

Prepare a feast.

Thank you.

Eat it.

I'm full.

Miss, inside please.

I'm not here to eat, but to look for someone.

Who would that be?

Master Chang, chiropractor.

Oh, Master Chang is over there.

Follow me please.

Master Chang, this lady is looking for you.

Boss, not him.

the one I'm looking for is younger.

He is young and handsome.

His bone-connecting skills are the best.

Oh, then I know who you're looking for, please wait.

Thanks.

Damn kid, you dare try pick up a girl.

No...I haven't...

Come here.

Come here.

Miss, would you be looking for him?

Yes...thanks for healing my leg last time.

Otherwise I would have turned into a cripple.

Dad, I only cured her leg, nothing else.

Uncle Chang, I'll walk with him for a bit, okay?

Sure...go ahead.

Wait for me.

Don't touch me

it's embarrassing if we're seen.

Wait for me.

A girl chasing a boy, would you believe it.

What has the world come to.

Wait for me.

Walk faster.

Wait for me.

This is the line which separates us.

You're over there, I am here.

I hear you, go on.

Chang Siu Tai, you're a good doctor.

Look at my leg.

It's as good as before.

It's no big deal, why make a big thing out of it?

Thank You.

What did you say?

Sorry, I said thank you.

No need, I am a specialist at setting bones.

Whatever it be, the bones of cows, lambs, pigs, ducks.

I never fail.

You...

Don't cross the line.

How could an animal compare with people?

It's the same theory.

Miss Shum, I must say

you've got guts.

What about me?

On the streets just now

I almost wanted to find a hole and crawl into it.

What did I do?

You were out of line.

What did I do?

Miss Shum, no one in this village

is like you

always on the street, and you even asked me

to stroll with you in this desolate place.

There's nothing unusual about

having a stroll and a casual chat.

How could you pretend it's nothing?

You have returned from abroad

and we're different.

Frankly speaking

there is nothing...special about me

that deserves your...infatuation.

So please do not come to me again, unless...

Unless what?

You've broken your leg again.

You...

Chang Siu Tai, don't go.

Chang Siu Tai.

Goodbye.

Stop if you have guts.

Chang Siu Tai.

Someone's moving the Goddess' statuette...

Go quickly.

Where?

Inside...

Charge in.

Quick.

Charge.

Drive them out.

Master Chang.

Stop, stay cool.

I...

Folks, listen to me.

Speak your mind

if you have no good reasons

don't think of leaving here.

Master Chang, no more arguments.

The Goddess statuette in this temple is a work of art.

We want it to be admired by the world.

No way.

Quiet.

The world knows

China has thousands of years of history.

If foreigners are interested in Chinese culture

they could visit us.

Yes...

But they can't possess it, not at all.

Not at all.

Unfortunately the memo from governor has been issued.

Haven't you read it?

Yes we have.

It asked us to decide

for ourselves

unlike you people who fawn on foreigners.

How come he talked like this?

You dare say we are not from here?

Yes.

but you've all changed.

That's right.

Old man.

Why are you getting yourself involved

in this matter?

Whatever happens in this place is my business.

That's correct.

Besides, I head the "Protect the Buddha Group", too.

That's right...

Robert, there are many of them.

We are at a disadvantage.

Master Chang, it doesn't matter if this works out.

What matters is that there's no ill feeling among us.

Let's not talk about this.

Let's go.

Okay.

Master Chang, you are great.

You are too kind...

Master Chang, you prided us on this.

It's what I should do.

This is really bad.

That's right

I've underestimated these villagers.

Mr. Powell's birthday is coming up

but we still can't find him

a birthday gift.

What are we going to do?

Father.

The Chang's family has been bossing around here.

Let me go and kill them.

Robert, don't get so excited.

What's the use?

Chairman, my view is that

we should win by strategy.

Strategy?

Yes.

It'll be trouble if it's found out.

We can organize a banquet

and invite both Master Chang and his son to come

to express our good intention.

This will mean that...

the unhappy incident of Tung Fat Temple

has been settled once and for all.

Then we will...

What?

Steal.

Steal?

Chairman, if you agree

I'll prepare the invitation right away.

Alright.

Siu Tai.

Master Chang, I've just spoken with Mr. John.

You are a magnanimous person.

Master Chang, you are magnanimous.

I know that you will show up tonight.

Chairman, you are too kind.

My principle is to treat others

as I would have them treat me.

You are too kind.

It's my pleasure.

No matter what

we are going to be friends tonight.

Good.

I'm giving you a toast.

Thank you.

What happened? Having fun?

Yes.

These foreigners are having too much fun.

Dancing is just one of those many things.

Chinese call this "tiao wu", foreigners call it dancing.

Really.

Want to try?

I can't.

You can't? Admit it, you don't have the guts to dance.

You haven't really seen the world.

Cheers.

Robert, why don't you come to dance?

What? Don't I spend enough time with you?

Miss Shum.

What is it?

I want to dance with you.

Good.

Dance then.

How can we dance without music?

There it is...I'll pick one for you.

You'll surely like it.

Come.

It's not the same music.

It's the same.

You can dance to any kind of music.

Siu Tai.

Come on, dance.

Siu Tai.

Master Chang, young people love dancing.

Let me teach you.

Hold my hands.

Relax, slowly, alright?

Yes, more.

Follow me, forward, four steps forward.

When I step back, you step forward, sway.

I step forward, you step back.

Turn round.

Again.

Follow me.

Forward.

Backward.

Forward.

Backward.

Four steps forward.

Swing twice.

Turn around.

Forward.

Backward.

Not bad.

Thank you.

Not bad, that's right.

Good kid.

Continue dancing.

Chinese kung fu.

What?

Siu Tai, at your back...

Robert, you shouldn't be like this.

Paul, no.

"Chinese Bonesetting"

It's here, let's go.

Be careful...

Hey...sit over.

Be careful.

Master Chang, my friend has chest pain.

Please look at him first.

You've got chest pain, is that right?

Let me feel your pulse.

Father, are you alright?

Yes, how about you?

Of course I am.

Good, let's each of us take care of ourselves.

Get me a new pair of trousers.

It's torn.

Chase me...

Come on.

"Ginseng"

Tiger penis.

Catch it.

Damn, you pretend to be sick

to cause me trouble. C'mon speak, who sent you?

Kid.

Not bad.

My son is not bad.

But still miles from me.

Get up.

Get up.

Siu Tai, how could he get up?

Get lost.

Siu Tai, help them in.

Put some medicine on them, I want to ask them

who sent them.

Yes, dad.

Dad, I can't make it.

Dad.

What's the matter?

Can't make it.

"Tiger penis"

What's to be done?

I'm hot all over, it's unbearable.

I have to get some herbal tea.

Siu Tai, what's wrong with you? - Nothing...

None of your business, he's uncomfortable all over.

You wouldn't understand.

Girls won't understand these things, go do your work.

"Chamber of Commerce, Kwangtung Province"

Robert.

How is it going?

What a coincidence! We just met.

Master Suen Yu Liang in the detention centre.

He is taking up the whole matter

and asks us not to worry. He was also kind enough

to release two of them

and the others would follow after further questioning.

His purpose? To fulfil his duty.

Master Tang, very sorry

that we haven't finished the task you gave us.

We also created trouble for you, please forgive us.

Forget it.

Just deduct the doctor's fees from the account.

That would not be too appropriate.

Right, take them back.

Okay...

Robert...

Master Tang, the Changs are not easy to deal with.

Be careful, I'm leaving.

Go...

Robert, stop practising

and change your clothes.

Inform Chairman Tang of the whole matter.

Quick, be gentle.

Careful.

Slightly more to this side.

Right. - Move it here.

A bit more.

Good, let's go.

Fatty, catch.

Is it fastened?

Yes, pull.

Careful.

Fatty, this is my secret.

Don't let anyone know

this statuette is hidden here.

Siu Tai, don't worry.

Only the six of us know.

Right, good.

Your "Protect the Buddha Group" chairmanship is over

Let me take your place as the chief.

Uncle Jiang.

Tak Tai...there's trouble.

The Buddha statue is gone.

Really?

I think the foreigners must have stolen it.

Dad, it's your responsibility as the chairperson.

You must get it back.

Siu Tai, go and find out if

they have stolen the Buddha statue.

Me?

What about it?

I've a headache and stomachache. My legs are feeble too.

I don't feel right at all.

Dad, I'd better stay home.

Siu Tai, it's all plain excuses.

If you don't want to go

then please go back your room.

Dad, I'm not feeling well.

Go inside.

Brother Tak Tai...

Can you handle it?

Are you joking? I've been through

a lot in my life.

There's nothing I cannot handle.

Get in. - That's good.

Get in.

We the "Protect the Buddha Group" will go together.

No, they will think that

we are looking for trouble if we all go.

Then...

The two of us will go.

"Hwa-Yi Association"

The business we were talking about

let's decide on the time and venue quick.

Yes...

Or else you'll be responsible for it.

Of course...

Give way.

Give way.

Please.

Give way.

You are sick.

Let's go in.

Alright, let's go in.

Chairman, Chang Tak Tai is here.

Oh, it's you Master Chang.

I think you must come on purpose.

You come here with so many people.

There must be something you want from me.

Come, have a seat.

No need.

Brother Tang, you know very well

that those "yang kwai ji" (foreigners).

There's a linguistic ambiguity...

We Chinese always follow proper etiquette.

How can we refer to the foreigners as "yang kwai ji".

We should address them "Sir".

Sir means mister.

Say it. - You...

The foreigners never had good intentions.

They always eyed the Tung Fat Temple Goddess statuette.

They...

To the foreigners, Goddess statue is a piece of art.

They like art in the same way as

we appreciate calligraphy and painting and antiques.

How could we say they don't have good intentions?

There's no need for you to put in good words for them.

Goddess statuette has been stolen and doubtlessly

it's been stolen by someone who knows this place.

Brother Tang, we are descendants of the Great Emperor.

Although we are not the best

but compared to the foreigners

we are not in any way inferior to them

except...in the sense that some people have no ambition.

They're not united, unworthy, ingratiate the foreigners.

Are you trying to say that

we're responsible for all the things that you've lost?

That means... - Father.

Father, why waste time

and listen to their nonsense.

Allow me to drive them away.

Not that easy.

Old Chang, you have no proof of your accusations.

You frame us with fabricated evidence

and call us thieves.

I am not going to tolerate this.

Robert, teach them a lesson.

Yes.

Robert.

Don't be rude.

Yes, father.

Chairman, this will create trouble.

None of your business.

No need to be afraid of him...

Paul.

Is he strong enough?

Yes, very strong.

Paul.

Sorry.

Calm enough.

Chairman, ask Robert not to do that.

Bookworm, mind your own business.

Don't fight. - Robert.

Uncle Chang, the Goddess' statue is really not in here.

I can guarantee that.

What good are you?

One can obtain the statuette back in many ways.

If we really want it, we don't have to steal it.

Besides, this is a place for doing business.

You must have proof for everything.

You have given me enough trouble today.

I can let you go this time.

But let me tell you

if you dare do this again

I'll not spare you next time.

I won't believe it no matter what you say.

Listen carefully.

I won't give up until

I've found the Goddess' statuette.

Master Jiang, let's go.

Alright.

Tak Tai.

Tak Tai, what happened to you?

Nothing...

Siu Tai...don't be like that.

Your father has got some bruises.

There's no need to be so angry.

Hurry and take the Goddess statue back.

Don't do that.

What? How come the statue has turned into a letter?

Yes.

That's strange.

Be careful.

Siu Tai, be careful.

Are you alright?

Be careful.

Siu Tai, slowly - I'm alright.

Slow down...

Yes.

What's in this letter? - Yes.

See what's in it!

I haven't seen it yet, why are you so impatient?

What? All in English.

Siu Tai, can you read English?

No.

What are we going to do?

This is a big joke.

Not only have I put my father in big trouble

I've also let those foreigners have an advantage.

How did they know

the statue is hidden here?

They must have seen it

when we stole.

No need to be afraid, this letter is evidence.

Yes. - Let's go to them for the statue.

We are going too.

Alright, if you are not going, I'll go by myself.

Well...

Good...

How come I didn't think of this earlier?!

Chairman, you are a man of great honour.

Concern yourself only with matters of significance

and not such trivial and petty issues.

Steal...

That's good.

Good...

Not bad... - Chairman Tang, this is too low and mean.

The villagers are the spiritual trustees

of the Goddess' statue.

How could we take it as our own

and give it to the foreigners.

You bookworm...

We'll let what happened go by, and now you...

Robert.

Robert, if you want to hit someone, hit me.

Hit me.

Judy, listen to me.

Your brother is out of line.

Don't you know he's siding with that damn old man?

No, I don't.

Uncle, Robert is always bullying my brother.

You should manage him.

Siu Ling.

Sister.

Sister, listen to me, go out.

Chairman...

There's no point talking to them.

They won't listen to us.

They just want to ingratiate the foreigners.

Sister, do you think that I should

tell Master Chang about this?

Alright, you go.

You go home first.

"Road blocked"

The meek is oppressed; this saying is indeed true.

Now even you gang of Japanese guys

are trying to bully us Chinese.

I'm not afraid of you.

Japanese guys, listen.

I know that you won't understand

what I said, but this won't matter much.

You don't have to understand.

I'll make you do.

Just look at my expression.

I am not the kind to be bullied.

Bastard.

Japanese guys.

Bastard.

Damn bastard.

You ungrateful things.

Why don't you check on your history and you will

see that you've learnt everything from us Chinese.

Your history and tradition

stem from China.

Now you want to bully us.

Not that easy.

I'm going to kill you one by one.

Chang Siu Tai, your legs cannot be stronger

than this Japanese sword.

If we haven't agreed on having just your one leg

before we came

you would have died already.

Speak, did you steal that statue?

That's right, come back for it

when your lame leg recuperates.

Attack.

Hit...hit...hit him.

Fight.

Stop.

Stop.

Stop fighting.

Are you crazy, stop. - Ask them to stop.

Go away, none of your business.

Don't fight.

If you want to kill, kill me first.

Alright, for your sake.

I'll let Chang Siu Tai go. It's your lucky day.

Stop fighting, let's go.

Siu Tai.

Master Chang, I'm so ashamed that I couldn't help much

but your son has done his best

in fighting against five of them.

It's absurd that they have taken the statue.

Browbeating people is very wrong

it's even worse when it is their own Chinese people.

Siu Tai, you are useless.

This is the first time that you've been

carried back wounded in a plank.

Dad, they have been wounded badly too.

Dad, I must go and find the Buddha statue.

Be patient, Siu Tai, wait until you recuperate.

I'll go with you.

You can lead the charge, and I'll be backup.

Beat the hell out of them and then

we'll take back the statue to Tung Fat Temple, okay?

If I can't find the Buddha statue

how can I face the villagers?

That's right.

We stole the Buddha statue, hid it

but they've found it...

Say no more.

Siu Tai, you didn't do anything wrong.

Everyone has the responsibility to catch thieves.

When your wound gets better

we'll spar again and discuss tactics.

As chief of the "Protect the Buddha Group"

I now promote you to assistant chief.

Dad... Okay...

Dear folks.

To ingratiate the foreigners, Chairman Tang

has conspired with officials.

They are ungrateful and

have stolen the Buddha statue for the foreigners.

We the "Protect the Buddha Group" must unite

to retrieve it.

That's right. - Agreed.

Right, these scoundrels

dare to bully us in our own country.

We should teach them a lesson.

They still don't know

we do not bow to oppression.

As the assistant chief of the Group

let me settle the score with them.

Right...

No, you're too rash.

I hear that Chairman Tang has recruited a few samurai

and they should be fierce fighters.

Right.

We must face them directly this time

so I will take care of this myself.

Not being young anymore, you shouldn't be in the front.

Let your son get some credit.

Who cares if they are foreigners or Japanese

we'll use kung fu

to force them to return the Buddha statue.

Right...

Let Siu Tai go.

Let the young fight their battle.

We'll offer support at the back.

Let the opposition know

our youngsters have inherited kung fu from us.

Uncle Jiang is right.

Okay, lead the group

to our meeting place

and bring the statue back to Tung Fat Temple.

"Assistant chief of the Buddha Protection Group"

Relax, let me.

Siu Tai, how dare you

create trouble here?

I'll give you a chance.

Do you want to compete by force or by a gentler way?

I don't understand

what you mean by that.

The gentle way is to apologize to me

and get out of here at once.

The other is to have a taste of my fist.

Mr. Tang, stop bragging.

your fist might not be harder than mine.

In a nutshell, we're determined

to bring the Buddha statue back to the Tung Fat Temple.

Nothing you say matters.

Mr. Yamaguchi, let me handle him.

Yes.

Siu Tai, beat him.

Siu Tai, beat him.

Siu Tai, are you alright?

I'm fine, out of my way.

Siu Tai...fight...

Be careful.

Don't be afraid of him, be careful.

Hit him.

Bastard, come again if you dare.

Come...

Attack...

Good...

Come on...

Good...

Good...

Thomson, kill him...

What is this? Who are you trying to frighten...

What's with the pose?

Come on and fight.

Siu Tai, that's great.

Good kick...

Good kick...

It's your turn, come.

Come...

Siu Tai, be careful.

This is Chinese stance.

It cannot be.

You have a big sword, but mine is small.

This is unfair.

Is this the way the Chinese duel?

Never mind, I know you are frightened now.

Don't worry.

We Chinese are not bullies.

Switch to another one.

Is it fair now?

Fight...

More power...

Come...

The game is over.

Be careful.

Attack...

Don't be afraid, attack.

Siu Tai, fear him not.

Fight...

Wait.

We Chinese won't do like this.

This is a mere exchange of skills.

Give way...

My son. - Dad!
