CHAOTIAN MONASTERY

The Jade Emperor governs heaven.

Yama, King of Hell governs underground.

At the center there is White Lotus,

protecting my homeland.

White Lotus descends to the mortal world.
All nations are freed from oppression.

Respectfully welcome Grandmaster Gau Gung,
spiritual leader of Southern Heavenly Gates.

Left, Azure Dragon.
Right, White Tiger.

On September 1st in the 32nd year of the calendar's
B-cycle, I was sent to learn about the Stone Age.

The Eternal Mother passed on
these teachings to young Gau Gung.

I came to CHAOTIAN Monastery to
try building a sitting altar.

Show the power of my magic, develop
the teaching of my spiritual power.

Magic protects my body.
Water and fire cannot invade.

Eternal Mother,
urgent as in law.

Respectfully welcome Grandmaster
Gau Gung, Dharmakāya

Eternal Mother, help give your first son
Gau Gung a body like gold, iron and stone.

Unafraid of a thousand knives or ten thousand cuts.
No allowance for penetration or trace of scars.

Unafraid of military artillery,
sharp swords or guns.

Forty-nine transformations overturn the heavens.
Heavenly soldiers to be used only by me.

Bones like pillars supporting heaven cover the
earth. A raging inferno regarded as dust.

- Magic without equal, displays of the spiritual.
- The White Lotus Society overcomes demonic magic.

A thousand knives denied a thousand cuts.

A million knives denied a million cuts.

A thousand knives denied a thousand cuts.
A million knives denied a million cuts.

Summon the divine chiefs.

Magic protects his body...

Gunfire is like flying gravel, military
artillery the same as water drops.

White Lotus descends to the mortal world.
All nations are freed from oppression.

The demon objects, bring them out!

- What animal is this? It's really ugly!
- It's a western dog, Grandmaster.

The dog has skin disease, must be an demon.
Burn it to death!

White Lotus descends to the mortal world.
All nations are freed from oppression.

Eliminate all foreigners,
enjoy peace and security.

Stand firm, Master.

Right side to left,
left side to right.

Wow, good footwork!

13th Aunt, the carriage is
shaking so hard, how can we eat?

Oh, you're not used to riding a steam train.
You see, those foreigners are sitting well.

Come here and sit down.

It's much better now. Once it took
a whole day to reach Guangzhou.

The trees seem like they're flying.
But... whoa...

- I don't feel well.
- Foon, did you take the pills?

- Why so talkative?
- Uhh...

It's like I'm shattering inside.

It's called motion sickness.
Don't eat anything or you'll vomit.

No! There's western food to eat.
So who cares about sickness, eh, Master?

Dear Brother, we
haven't ordered yet.

There's no need to order
food on a steam train.

- Miss, your soup.
- Thank you.

- It's ready already.
- That's not very fresh, is it?

- Solar eclipse!
- Don't be dense, it's nothing.

- 13th Aunt, why is this happening?
- The steam train's in a tunnel.

A tunnel? So, foreign steam trains are so
strong they can pass through mountains?

- That's amazing!
- Bumpkin!

Ah Foon, it's fine to be yourself in front of us,
but in the capital you mustn't wander around.

I heard that there will be many
foreigners at this medical conference.

- Don't make a fool of yourself.
- I know, Master.

So many hands?

Fei-Hung, it's good to drink
the soup while it's hot.

Foon, it's good to drink
the soup while it's hot.

Master, I don't know
which hand is my own.

Drink like that, OK.

- Sir, have you finished the soup?
- I'll finish it after dinner.

Only meat?
Where's the rice?

- Miss, you still want your soup?
- I don't want it.

Thank you.

Fei-Hung, this is steak.
You have to use a knife and fork.

I've seen these.

You always do this. It's a waste! You
needn't eat it, but don't throw it away.

Uncertain heart, uncertain hand.

Here, learn from me.

- 13th Aunt, are you hurt?
- I'll wipe it for you...

No.
Here's your steak back.

Master, you needn't eat it,
but don't throw it at someone!

It's because of you!
You made me look away.

It's alright, it's alright...
Eat something.

Why aren't you making a sound?

No reason.
Why aren't you making a sound?

I'm going to...
I need to...

Ah Foon, I told you not to eat anything.
Hold on a bit, we're near the capital.

- We're almost there?
- Yes.

Is everything alright?
It's not easy to ride a steam train.

Dear Brother, pack
up the meat for me.

- What did you say?
- I just don't want to waste it.

Spicy large chicken buns!

Ah Ngau, bring a pot of Pu'er.

- Old Lee, when will you repay your debt?
- No money to repay gambling debts.

Hey... you see, so many people.
What does it say up there?

A petition to support this
year's national graduates...

Oppose the treaty of Shimonoseki...

Hey, where is Taiwan? How can you cede
it to someone when the war is over?

- Taiwan must rest on the coast.
- Huh?

- Otherwise, why call it a bay?
- Right.

I don't even know how big it is. We can't look
after our own capital, let alone elsewhere.

- Come on, drink some tea.
- Yes, let's have tea...

Eat the buns first,
then we'll talk later.

Oppose Li Hong-Zhang's
begging to Japan for peace.

Oppose the ceding of Taiwan...

- Hey... why is that woman dressed like that?
- Where?

Oh, riding in that rickshaw. Come and see
a Tang person wearing western clothes.

Those are western clothes. That's grotesque!
How can you wear those in the street?

Sister.

Hey... go and buy a 'flower book'.
You must bet on the dogs.

I don't understand these things.

One ticket per hand.
Pick up your ticket and go.

- Evening prize draw.
- Flower book?

Barbecue pork buns!

We've arrived, sir.

- Ten taels, thanks.
- For your trouble.

Hey, let's eat first, or working the
rickshaws will be unbearable later.

Little Sister, your clothes are pretty.
Let me take a picture for you.

Fake foreign devil!
Everyone, get her!

- 13th Aunt, come here.
- Hey, you little brats!

You dare throw things at people?

- Where are your manners?
- Hey, Foon!

- Still not leaving?
- Foon, leave the children alone.

- It's bleeding!
- Sister...

- You see, you're in trouble again.
- Master...

Quick, let's go
and tell Uncle Nine.

Those kids are so naughty,
throwing things at people.

- What a mess everywhere!
- Hey... dear neighbours, everyone listen!

White Lotus Society are opening an altar at the
telegraph office to worship at their shrine.

Hey, don't go!
Pay your bills first!

Master Wong,
I'm going to burn incense.

13th Aunt...
Ah Foon...

- Hurry up, the altar's opening. Hurry up!
- Report to the Governor, we need help.

This is a government office.
Disperse! Disperse!

Soldiers are foreigners' dogs!
Pelt them to death!

Stop blocking the way!
Hey... get out of the way.

Heavenly wind and earthly fire come together
to righteously exterminate foreigners.

Now the White Lotus has come as salvation,
to exorcise the evil spirits for the ages.

Burn the Telegraph office...

- Excuse me... thank you.
- 13th Aunt, let's find a good place to take a picture.

Help me mount the tripod first.
Just there.

- Heavenly wind and earthly fire come together...
- The altar's opening...

- I can't see, how can I shoot?
- You can sit on my shoulders.

Sit on your shoulders?

Now, I'm coming.
You hold on!

Now the White Lotus has come as salvation,
to exorcise the evil spirits for the ages.

White Lotus descends to the mortal world.
All nations are freed from oppression.

Eliminate all foreigners,
enjoy peace and security.

- Ah Foon, this position is wrong.
- It's so right!

Now the White Lotus has come as salvation,
to exorcise the evil spirits for the ages.

- Ashes...
- What's up?

Thanks!

That woman can discharge electricity.
Run!

Capture that sorcerer!

Divine Chief, is it the
one on top or bottom?

- The foreign devil on top.
- Catch her!

Don't be reckless!
She's Chinese.

- How can she be foreign?
- Right!

You can see it clearly.

Look at you, wearing a western suit.
It proves you're a demon.

Must be demon magic.
Capture her!

Hey, don't be reckless!
Don't fight!

Hey, 13th Aunt...
Run quick, I'll protect you!

My camera!

13th Aunt!

13th Aunt!
13th Aunt, where are you?

Ah Foon, help me...

Eliminate all foreigners,
enjoy peace and security.

Take her back to CHAOTIAN Monastery.
Burn her to death!

Put her down!

Fei-Hung!

Who's come... that dares to resist the Sun Moon's
divine chief in front of the demon expulsion altar?

- Identify yourself.
- Wong Fei-Hung from Foshan.

- Wong Fei-Hung?
- Also, Meixian's Leung Foon!

He's Wong Fei-Hung.
I hear his martial arts is tremendous.

Kick you to death...

13th Aunt, that one's had enough.
Find someone else.

- Who else? Where...?
- Don't hit so hard.

No more fighting.

Cross Fist!

Excuse me... a little kung fu.
Master!

- 13th Aunt, are you alright?
- I'm fine, fortunately you arrived in time!

What is it?
So fragrant!

She's dazed by the fragrance.
Ah Foon!

- Master!
- Look after 13th Aunt.

13th Aunt...

Magic...

It's not proper to deceive the people,
and claim to be acting in God's name.

13th Aunt, wake up!
13th Aunt!

13th Aunt!
Help her up.

Ah Foon, take 13th Aunt
back to the inn.

Foon!
Still here?

He's one of Guangdong's Ten Tigers.
Great kung fu!

Step aside!

Master Wong, don't take it.
That's a demon!

Step aside!

- Master Wong, I want to learn your kung fu.
- Go away! Don't follow me!

- Fei-Hung.
- Ah, you're awake.

You passed out just after they
used a sleeping agent on you.

- Did you carry me back?
- No, Ah Foon carried you back.

Why did Ah Foon carry me back?

Ah Foon is now outside
boiling medicine.

Consume the medicine, rest for
two days, and you'll be fine.

- Master Wong.
- Come in.

The situation here is complex.
A girl mustn't rush around.

- Rest, don't think too much.
- Fei-Hung, I'm alright.

At tomorrow's medical conference
I can do the translation for you.

You keep your spirits up, we'll talk later.
Drink your medicine first.

- Master Wong, excuse me.
- Don't mention it...

13th Aunt, you're awake.
Just now...

- You're the one who carried me back, right?
- Right!

The medicine is still very hot,
tale care it doesn't scald you.

Boss Mak, how can I advise you?

A bargain. I asked my employee to buy this dress,
you give it to the lady for her to change into.

- That's very kind of you.
- It's nothing.

Recently in the capital, magicians have become popular.
If they see a foreign devil, they'll beat them to death.

Master Wong, we've known each other so long.
I'm not afraid to be honest with you.

If that lady dresses like that,
it's easy to stir up trouble.

I understand.
How much for this dress, Boss Mak?

- Forget it...
- Thanks very much.

We're counting on
your help, Master Wong.

So boring! If I'd known earlier,
I would've called upon Ah So to come.

And the next one.

It's not any of them,
must be another westerner.

Dr Wong, it's you.

- Ah Foon, it's us.
- I'll let you out.

- Together.
- It's not a good idea, Master.

Pardon me...

Colleagues, today let's talk about Chinese
acupuncture. Acupuncture only needs...

- Not loud enough.
- There are 365 pressure points on the head alone...

Isn't it loud enough?

That's not what he meant.
Dr Wong, let me translate for you.

Dear Brother, may I ask...?

My surname's Sun, single character Wen.
Sun Wen.

Mr Sun, if it's no trouble,
please translate for me.

- Don't mention it.
- Thank you.

The human body's five elements - Gold, wood, water,
fire, earth - are controlled by the meridian channels.

Acupuncture can control
the human consciousness.

Dr Wong, Dr Thompson doesn't quite
understand your acupuncture technique.

What he just demonstrated was the
reaction of the western nervous system.

This is very simple.

I can use acupuncture to seal
two of his external acupoints.

This can keep his
leg from moving.

Master, you're not jabbing me?

Dr Sun, would you ask them
to try and move his leg?

White Lotus descends to the mortal world.
All nations are freed from oppression.

Eliminate all foreigners,
enjoy peace and security.

Master!

"Support the Qing, annihilate the West!"
It's the White Lotus Society again.

Master! I can't move!

I've been hit by arrows.
I'm dead for sure!

Master, I was pierced by you.
They almost pierced me again.

- Dr Sun, your medicine chest.
- Don't bother.

The demons' holy shrine has been purged.
Return to CHAOTIAN Monastery.

- Well? Are you alright?
- I'm alright.

Dr Sun, let's exchange
medicine chests.

Dr Wong, if in future we have the chance,
let's exchange views on medical practice.

If China had more men like you,
all would be good.

- You flatter me...
- Hope to see you again.

This White Lotus Society
crowd runs amok.

- Oh, Master! 13th Aunt is alone at the inn.
- Why didn't you say earlier?

White Lotus Society?

Come out!

Fei-Hung!

- Master, what's the matter?
- Nothing, get out.

Master, your complexion has changed.
It doesn't look like you're alright.

A woman changing her clothes,
what's there to look at?

Nosy!

Master, you've already seen it.
Of course you'd say that!

Drifting aimlessly.

Do not ask how it came to this.

All one can see is the afterglow
of the mid-mountains,

Reflecting on a single anxious man.

To the road, the vast, vast road.

I cannot contain the sorrow,
the bursts, the bursts of sorrow.

Before me is dusty and
desolate, so desolate.

It provokes falling tears,
endless, endless tears.

I want to learn how to throw away
the pen and take up arms.

Do some honest work instead.

But I mistakenly put on the scholar's cap,

and so stretched my ambitions too thin.

I want to learn of one paddle,
one paddle and five lakes.

As well as how to live a
life of peaceful solitude.

But the demon mist shrouds all.

There is no end to it in sight.

Tell, what is left when the rocks decay,
the rocks decay and the seas run dry?

Love is indestructible.

You watch the evening mist,
the sinking, sinking mist.

The west wind tightens.

It flies south, the northern goose,

Afraid that the visitor will hear.

Peace has not yet been reported.

Ask yourself, how does one
bear it in their heart?

Empty, tearful eyes,

they gaze at the cold twilight.

From me, my deepest romantic love
and my indiscriminate platonic love.

I have the ability to give neither.

Today as I lean against the building,
I long for the one so far away.

Close to the edge of the world.

Henceforth, I am the broken stem
and the floating duckweed.

A few lovers' vows, lover's
vows made in secret.

Every single word, it is not enough.

- That old blind man sings so loud.
- Tell him not to sing.

Go away.

Thank you...

My Lord.

This office is our connection
to the outside world.

- Fully protect the telegraph office and poles.
- As you order.

My Lord.

There are many civilians on the north gate.
Beware of hurting the innocent.

- Drive the White Lotus Society to Dongmen Alley.
- As you order.

My Lord, if this continues, I'm afraid the
court hasn't enough manpower to suppress them.

Burn it... Burn it...

Master!

Master!
Time to eat!

I bought something good to
allow 13th Aunt's body to rejuvenate.

- It's 'fragrant meat'?
- Yeah, smells real fragrant.

What do you mean by fragrant meat?

- Ah Foon, you haven't told 13th Aunt?
- What? You don't know?

13th Aunt, do you like dogs?

Dogs are very intelligent.
I like dogs more than cats.

- What's wrong?
- Nothing. Let's eat.

Everyone loves dogs
in different ways.

- They seem to have gone that way!
- Let's go see.

Hard to imagine the capital's
become this disordered.

Ah Foon, pack the bags in a while. We'll
go to the station early tomorrow morning.

Ride the steam train back
to Foshan with 13th Aunt.

Then you need to eat more.

Otherwise, when we take the steam train tomorrow,
you'll throw up the onboard food again.

13th Aunt, after eating the dog meat, come out
to the courtyard, I have something to tell you.

You have something to tell me?

What did you say?
Is this dog meat?

- It's really dog meat?
- Yes.

Yes, Master loves dogs.

13th Aunt... I want to
teach you a few hand grabs.

- How can I learn kung fu?
- The current situation's so confused.

Learning kung fu...
it's just in case.

Now, small hand grabs have 36 paths,
big hand grabs have 72 paths.

- The human body is divided into 108 acupoints.
- Fei-Hung...

- Do I really need to remember this much?
- You needn't remember, but it doesn't hurt to listen.

You remember,
the bridge, over the bridge.

Kicks, under the foot.

- If someone uses a knife, then what?
- I'll teach you empty hand against knife another time.

Now, watch. Single grab with hand turn,
double grab with clasp lock.

- So much trouble. It would be safer with a gun.
- Shut up!

I was too loud just now, but that's how
I usually teach Ah Foon and the others.

- I'm fine, carry on teaching.
- Well, alright.

The first move:
grab my head.

Pay attention.

- Grasp head, hoop hands, rotate the horse.
- Grasp head, hoop hands...

- Rotate the horse.
- Rotate the horse.

- Repeat once again.
- Grasp head, hoop hands, rotate the horse.

The second move:
throat lock!

Come on, lock my throat, force it.
Lock the throat, bend over, grab the horse.

13th Aunt?

Be careful!

- What distracted you?
- Huh? I was thinking about the moves you taught me.

Try it for me once more.

First move: grab the head.
Grab the head, then what?

Punch out!

- Are you OK?
- I'm OK, but I think it's safer to stay by your side.

Lord Governor, a telegram from
Hong Kong arrived this morning.

Outrageous, telling me about
a telegram at this time?

The telegram said someone was
plotting a rebellion in the capital.

This is the transcript.

My Lord, there's an urgent
telegram from Hong Kong.

The situation is serious.
You protect telegraph office.

- I'll seek instruction from the Governor-General.
- As you order.

Lord Governor-General.

Be aware, the British attaché invited
me to this ball. What's the emergency?

My Lord, our spies in Hong Kong sent
us two urgent telegrams in one day.

They say members of Hong Kong's anti-Qing societies are
gathered in Chaoshan ready to ship arms to Guangzhou.

- Conspiracy to rebel.
- Rebel?

- Is it the White Lotus Society?
- No.

- It's a man named Sun Wen.
- Sun Wen?

- Officer Ga! Who is this Sun Wen?
- Reporting, my Lord.

Sun Wen recently visited the capital. He's the
man who formed the Agricultural Science Society.

He's a doctor, and is always criticizing
court politics in his lectures.

He talks about what kind of
democratic system to implement...

- And how to establish a republican government...
- How does a doctor have the ability to rebel?

- My Lord...
- Don't we have enough manpower?

My Lord, recently the White Lotus Society has
made trouble. We haven't enough forces to deploy.

My Lord, the court recently made the
French in the north very unhappy.

It seems war will break out at any time. It won't
be easy to dispatch troops to provide support.

Now that the British are our friends, they
don't want us to adopt a foreign system.

Instruct land and sea routes
to step up their guard.

Strictly monitor transportation,
investigate Sun Wen.

- Also, what was the other thing?
- Agricultural Science Society.

Who else was at this
meeting with Sun Wen?

The biggest contributor behind the
scenes is named Lu Hao-Dong.

My Lord, are you going to take him
back to the court for questioning?

- Oh, yes! Take him back to the court for questioning.
- Yes, My Lord!

- Lord Governor?
- I'm not going out.

My Lord.

Ah Chung, tell 'Big Snake'
to get up.

Don't you have to work?
The sun's already high in the sky.

Come on, get up! Did fooling with those girls
last night make your legs soft? Hurry up!

13th Aunt, be careful.
Take it easy.

- Foon, what are you doing?
- 13th Aunt sprained her foot and can't walk.

There's no reason.

I only taught you to grab hands last night.
How did your foot get hurt?

I don't know, but when I got up this
morning it was too painful to walk.

Ah Foon learnt my foot was injured
and insisted he carry me on his back.

- Ah Foon?
- Master, I don't mind hard work.

OK. You take the luggage,
I'll carry 13th Aunt.

It really hurts.

I'm always the one who has to carry things.
Competing with me again? Master, really!

Cashier!

- What can I do for you?
- Could I trouble you for the bill?

- What is it?
- Hurry up!

Hey... you good-for-nothing!

- Boss Mak.
- Master Wong, good morning!

- We're leaving.
- Oh, you're finally leaving!

- Um, no! You all take care.
- We've been bothering you for two days.

- Whenever you come to Foshan...
- Fei-Hung, look!

- What's going on?
- The man was badly hurt.

Old Brother, what's the matter?

The White Lotus Society are burning down
the Chinese Library and beating people.

- Help him to the doctor!
- White Lotus Society? What's the Chinese Library?

That's the foreign language school.
Oh, no! There are still many students!

- Boss Mak, where's the Chinese Library?
- Turn left up at the fruit market.

- You're not going?
- 13th Aunt!

- Hey, Master, where's 13th Aunt going?
- Ah Foon, why lie to me that she sprained her foot?

Master, actually, she lied to you.
Wait for me.

CHINESE LIBRARY

So it's here?

Master! Wait for me!

- What is it?
- Human skin.

That's certainly human skin.

Master.

Schoolchildren!
Fortunately they were hiding.

- What's up?
- Hey, I'll go check it out.

What's going on in there?

- They've all been driven away. It's alright.
- Good children. Don't be scared.

- Want some plain rice?
- Are you hungry?

Oh, it's so crowded.
Hey, Boss Mak's returned.

It's Master Wong! Master Wong,
how come you haven't left yet?

- Whoa, you've brought back so many kids?
- Boss Mak...

They're schoolchildren from the Chinese
Library. I want to keep them here awhile.

I daren't offer them shelter. If the White Lotus Society
comes here to practice, my entire family is finished!

I don't know this group of kids.
They even read in a foreign language.

If you're looking for a place to hide,
why not go to the court, eh?

It's just a little inconvenience.

Master Wong, I can't fight like you.
You let me go.

My whole family depends
on this 'Natural Habitat'.

- If by chance the White Lotus Society burn it, I'll...
- I'll help you fight.

- Boss Mak!
- He's dizzy, don't faint!

Bring the medicated oil.

Look, he's fainted. You think you're
terrific just because you're Wong Fei-Hung?

What's to be done if it's fatal?

- I'll surely report this to the authorities.
- It's pointless to force someone.

Ah Foon, 13th Aunt, let's go.
First, send the schoolchildren home.

- Hey, kid, where do you live?
- I come from Guangxi.

- Guangxi!
- I'm from Guangxi, too.

My home's in Fujian.

This one lives in Chaozhou,
those two are from Guangxi.

Perhaps the others don't
live in the capital either?

Do any of you live here?

'Auntie', I live in Small
North Gate, as does Hui On.

- I live on Shamian.
- Also me, I think I live in the East Gate.

- I live in Suzhou.
- So, who else lives here?

I came by train,
I don't know where it came from.

We'll get these two back first.
Take the rest.

Come on, kid,
up on my shoulders.

Ah Foon! Take along some glutinous
rice chicken to eat on the road later.

Waiter, twenty baskets of glutinous rice
chicken. Come on, kid. I'll carry you.

Guest...

- Have you come to visit?
- Dear boss...

May I ask about schoolchildren from the
Chinese Library? Have they been here today?

Schoolchildren?
No... you're looking in the wrong place!

- Never been here.
- Boss...?

Excuse me, everyone.
Have you seen any schoolchildren?

No! Coming to a teahouse to find schoolchildren?
That's foolish! Perhaps someone's abducted them?

The Jade Emperor governs heaven.

- Yama governs underground.
- Lucky, I didn't keep the students here.

- Almost got into trouble.
- At the center there is White Lotus,

Protecting my homeland.

- Protective talisman...
- I want one.

Buy our lanterns.
Hanging lanterns eliminates disaster.

Sticking talismans protects future generations.
Incense replenishes money, great fortune comes.

- Walk the right path.
- Donation money for the temple...

- Keeps you safe and sound.
- It surely must...

Adding more donations
keeps me safe.

Sprinkle faster, we're leaving
when you're done peeing.

- No noise.
- Don't make a noise.

- Why do you have so much blood on your hands?
- It's not mine, it's his.

It's all over his body.

He's badly hurt.
There's no way we can stay.

I'm going to the court at once to
ask them to shelter these children.

You must remember,
don't wander around.

Foon!

- Help me bandage the wounded child.
- I'm not done yet.

- Don't be so naughty. Come back now.
- I just want to see where he's going.

Ah Foon, why are you so smelly?

- You deliberately peed on me?
- I already told you I wasn't done yet.

LOYALTY, BRAVERY, RESOLUTION

My Lord, Wong Fei-Hung
requests to see you.

Master Wong, please wait a moment.

My Lord!

My Lord.

Master Wong deserves to be
the militia's chief instructor.

- Pardon me...
- My Lord, I'm humbled.

Just now, I was merely consulting
Master Wong over a few moves.

Master Wong's Shaolin stick method
surely justifies its reputation.

If available in future,
this official will ask for your guidance.

- Please, have some wine.
- Thanks.

Hey, Wong's stick method is nothing but sloppy.
He hit that pine and it didn't even move.

It's said he has tremendous kung fu. Seems
like that's nothing more than a rumor.

The men of our court have all been
sent to protect the foreign areas.

It's not necessarily safer
in here than outside.

If the schoolchildren come in, the White Lotus Society
disciples will take the opportunity to stir up trouble.

My Lord...

Yes, the common people depend
upon government officials.

But at this point, even with martial arts, it's
difficult for a lone official without support.

Truly, I'm extremely ashamed.

- Ah Foon, come here.
- Out of the way.

- Go away! Don't get in the way.
- He's still bleeding.

Master hasn't come back yet,
what do we do?

- Why isn't he moving?
- Right, why isn't he moving?

- Mozart.
- Mo-zaat? How does that stop bleeding?

No, I'm talking about Western music.
There's a consulate nearby.

A consulate?

Beware of candles,
beware of thieves.

13th Aunt!
Foon!

- Let me pee first.
- Just go home and pee.

Such endurance is liable
to damage my kidneys.

- Ha! They're damaged enough.
- Hold it!

Don't run!

You're White Lotus Society.
Where did you take the woman and children?

I'm not White Lotus Society.
My children are all asleep.

- My wife ran off with someone else.
- What?

Ah Foon, where have you been?

- 13th Aunt took the children to a safe place.
- Really?

You're not from the White Lotus Society.
Why are you holding a White Lotus lantern?

We intended to buy it to keep us safe.
It's safe enough now.

- Can we go now?
- Go!

Go!
Hey, hurry up, let's go!

Foon, aren't you taking me?

Did you forget me so soon?

I was just here with a bunch of kids
and a very beautiful woman.

But I went out to look for my master.
Don't you remember?

Irrelevant nonsense!

Well, Foon?
Did 13th Aunt bring the children here?

Yes, a moment ago he let us in,
but now we're not allowed.

- 13th Aunt...
- 13th Aunt...

I've brought Master here.

- Master, he asked us to stand up.
- I heard that.

13th Aunt, we're waiting
for you at the gate.

Master, they're opening the gate.

- Hey, why did you jab me? Jab me?
- Ah Foon! Don't be reckless!

- Still want to hit me? Get lost!
- Don't hit him!

- Quick, explain to them.
- I already told them.

- Hey, you put the guns down first.
- You don't know what I'm talking about, huh?

- Stop it!
- Stop pointing...

Hey... gentlemen, wait a moment.

- I'm Lu Hao-Dong. And you are...?
- Wong Fei-Hung from Foshan.

Wong Fei-Hung?
I heard you saved the schoolchildren.

That's right. They're all inside,
but they won't let us in.

- Just a misunderstanding.
- What?

Brother Hao-Dong...

Why do foreigners believe in a God
that appears to suffer so much?

There's a myth in
everyone's heart.

When I was young, I believed in one thing.
As a grown-up, I believed in another.

Until one day, I discovered
that all myths are lies.

Brother Hao-Dong, why are you always looking
at your watch? Are you waiting for someone?

It's a bad habit
an old friend has given me.

He says time is precious.
We Chinese waste too much time.

I'm ashamed. I still don't know
how to read foreign digits.

I really don't know how
to properly keep time.

Little friends, don't come down.
Don't be afraid.

Ah Foon, take them upstairs.

They're from the capital -
foreign merchants and their families.

Attacked by the White Lotus Society, they've
come to the consulate seeking refuge.

- They're looking for a doctor.
- Why don't they ask for Master? Master...

They said someone's hurt
and needs a doctor.

They said no Chinese medicine.

- Hey, Dr Sun!
- Brother Wong.

- This is...
- No need for introductions.

He's the friend I mentioned
who always looks at his watch.

Oh, 13th Aunt!

Burn it!

The White Lotus Society
acting strangely again.

Hao-Dong.

The times are different,
which one's right?

Yi-Xian, your watch runs faster. Slower,
my watch can't catch up with your time.

- Stop joking, let's see to the wounded.
- Alright.

Foon, we never thought
that time was so important.

Of course, you wouldn't understand.

Burn those foreign devils,
lest they obstruct the living world.

13th Aunt!

Oh, no... they must have
a way of taking her soul.

If they were that powerful, they wouldn't
be losing the battle with the foreigners.

They're impostors employing spiritual
tricks to deceive the foreigners.

Don't worry about it.
Sit down and have a rest.

I'm afraid 13th Aunt will vomit.

We're not riding the steam train.

Hao-Dong...
go find Wong Fei-Hung.

Feeling better now?

Brother Wong, Yi-Xian wishes to ask you to
lend a hand with the emergency casualties.

- Where?
- Just in the reception there.

Fine, you lead the way.

The attaché said thank you. It's the first
time he's seen such miraculous healing.

- He says his eyes have been opened in admiration.
- Saving lives is important, please don't thank me.

- What's the matter?
- 13th Aunt, stay with me! Don't go!

I'm not leaving you.

The children!

Be careful, Yi-Xian.
Crouch down!

The soldiers have locked down the Telegraph
Office. We've lost contact with Hong Kong.

So, are we still
mobilizing on time?

It's too risky. I want to disband from
the capital for the time being, brother.

Let's split up and tell them.

Now only we have the means of contacting the outside.
Only the telegraph inside the consulate remains.

Hao-Dong, you know how to use the telegraph.
Stay here, and keep in touch with the outside.

- Yi-Xian, I...
- I've arranged for your family to go into hiding.

I'm going back to Yungang villa. I'll
attend the wedding later in the evening.

If you haven't heard from me by morning, go to
Shamian pier, take the first boat to Hong Kong.

In order to avoid time-keeping errors,
keep my watch on your person.

If... we fail this time, you'll
have to persist to the end.

Persist to the end.

- Dr Sun, are you leaving?
- I have something to do.

- It's dangerous for you to leave now, I'll see you out.
- OK, sorry to trouble you.

- Don't follow me.
- Fei-Hung, be careful!

The Eternal Mother helps
get rid of demons!

Dr Sun, how will you get out?

Saving people is easier
than saving the nation.

It seems we both possess medicine chests,
but there are so many people I can't save.

Drive them away!

Dr Wong, farewell.

Lord Governor, we're just catching
pigs and killing foreigners.

The White Lotus Society
wouldn't massacre its compatriots.

It's good to hear you say that. Negotiating with
foreigners is the authorities' responsibility.

If the authorities had such ability, you wouldn't
have had to carve up so much land for foreigners.

That's right, how can this be?

If you come back here again,
I'll take you all back to the court.

- Carry the altar away.
- Yes, My Lord!

You men up there, move away.

Oh, so Lu Hao-Dong
is hiding in here.

Brother Hao-Dong.

- Go!
- Yes!

- Sam FOOK.
- My Lord.

Cut down the telephone pole.

I want to sever their
contact with the outside.

For a soldier in danger,
the world is like a chess game.

We serve the army... men in a world
without freedom to act independently.

But, My Lord...

- I know. You do as instructed.
- Yes.

Hurry up and do as the Governor tells you.
Go on!

They're harboring the rebels, using
collaborators to subdue imperialism.

Raise the altar!

Take action.

Alright. Since everyone here's so
righteous, practise with me first.

Now remember, don't move after a proper
horse stance. It's called Hanging Horse.

This is called Opening the Horse.
Steady and powerful.

Second move: Unicorn Steps.

- Third: Hanging Hoof stance.
- Grasp head, hoop hands, rotate the horse.

Now, watch. Restore Dispersing
Hand, Hanging Hoof Horse.

Hang again!

Not bad. Hang just like
that for two hours.

Ah Foon!

Grasp head, hoop hands, rotate the horse.
How do you use it?

Grabbing Hand?

Yes, I've learned a little bit, but I'm
anxious, and don't know how to use it.

Oh, that's simple.
I'll make a move, you catch the move.

Watch.

Is that side better?
This side's not too convenient.

Foon, what are you doing?
What are you doing with 13th Aunt?

I'm just teaching Grabbing Hand.

Oh, so you've even started teaching now?
Don't you think I can teach her?

You embrace 13th Aunt, irrespective of her seniority?
Go downstairs! Horse stance for half an hour.

- Master, I...
- Downstairs!

What are you looking at...?
Continue the Horse Stance!

I'm going... right away.

- What are you doing?
- Horse Stance.

Is that how you do a Horse Stance?

Fei-Hung, don't be angry with Foon.
I asked him to teach me.

You asked him to teach you?

- Why don't you call him back up?
- Go on...

Punished for teaching Grabbing Hand. What happens
if next time I teach her Mongolian wrestling?

You foreign soldiers
are all really lazy!

If the White Lotus Society
broke in, then you'd see death.

Scaring me to death?

- A foreign devil.
- Wait for her to come down.

Mr Lu! Mr Lu!

Have you seen Leung Foon?

- White Lotus Society!
- Help!

The White Lotus Society is here!

They really came?

Heavenly wind and earthly fire come together
to righteously exterminate foreigners!

Now the White Lotus has come as salvation,
to exorcise the evil spirits for the ages!

You go and hide first.
Don't run around.

- I'll be back soon.
- Come back quickly, come back.

Come back, FU.
Come back quickly.

- Who's there? Mr Lu?
- Yes.

- Go upstairs.
- Go upstairs.

- My Lord...
- Wait and see.

You little demons are toast!

Master's Horse!

Dismount!

Still want to run?

Foon, tie them up. I'll look around,
see if any White Lotus are left hiding.

- Go in and arrest them. Go on!
- Yes! Go!

Arrest the White Lotus Society
and take them in.

Hurry, go!

- What are you looking at? Come on.
- Someone's fighting out there.

My Lord!

Fei-Hung, Lord YUEN Suet
killed the attaché.

Don't interfere.

- Search everywhere.
- Yes.

Nothing!

You inform Sun Wen,
tell him to leave quickly.

Fei-Hung... I know you always
think of me as your elder...

But I think of you
as the man in my heart.

This time, if we're separated,
you must bring me back.

It's time to go.

No matter how,
you must survive tonight.

So that your generation can see the
morning sun. Do you understand?

Ah Foon, you pose as Mr Lu
to distract the soldiers.

Then find time to help Mr Lu retrieve his
name register from the Salted Shrimp Bar.

- I will.
- Leung Foon, you take this watch.

Go to Shamian pier tomorrow at seven o'clock.
As for the name register, I'm counting on you.

SIU-Gwan!

You called me by my name.
The first time you've called me by my name.

- Who are you?
- My Lord, I'm the consulate interpreter.

Go.

Ah Foon, go quickly!

Mr Lu...

- Mr Lu? After him!
- After him!

- Lord YUEN Suet.
- Wong Fei-Hung.

My Lord, I was thinking, catch
the leader, defeat the enemy.

I want to directly combat the root,
and eradicate the White Lotus Society.

Good.
Who's that?

- Ah Foon.
- Master.

- Greet My Lord.
- My Lord.

He was wounded by the
White Lotus Society.

My Lord, our success isn't certain.

These children, would it trouble
My Lord to take care of them?

- OK, I promise.
- Thank you.

Dispatch troops to protect Master Wong
as he goes to CHAOTIAN Monastery.

Yes!

White Lotus disciples, I want
to join the White Lotus Society.

The White Lotus altar
welcomes its honored guests.

Master Wong, there are so many soldiers
guarding the door, how do we escape?

CHAOTIAN Monastery is so big.

If we see a wall, climb it, we see a
hole, go through it. We must go, OK?

CHAOTIAN Monastery under burning incense,
White Lotus altar echoes throughout China.

- The risk ahead is hard to fathom.
- As long as we're here...

- Anyway, we can't turn back.
- Then, let's go in together.

Maitreya descends to earth
to save all living things.

White Lotus descends to the mortal world.
All nations are freed from oppression.

I teach the world under grace from above.
Open the CHAOTIAN Monastery altar.

- First, bring on the new recruits.
- Ceremonial kneel.

Wong Fei-Hung, Leung Foon,
bow before the altar.

Three showers before the altar,
cleanse the hearts of evil spirits.

Salute.

Drink the divine talisman, so
White Lotus becomes your father.

Different family name,
but same as a relative.

Brothers of the same root,
inter-generational cooperation.

No divisions between hierarchy,
shared suffering tastes sweeter.

Violate this oath,
and your bloodline's severed forever.

Drink the divine talisman,
become a White Lotus child for life.

Apostates will be struck by the five
thunders, the six senses broken.

Master!

Before the altar, disloyalty
cannot be tolerated. Drink!

Eternal Mother,
urgent as in law.

Spiritual Armour, a body
of gold, iron and stone.

A thousand knives denied a thousand cuts.
A million knives denied a million cuts.

Spiritual Armour, a body
of gold, iron and stone.

No trace of scars,
impervious to swords and spears.

Master Wong!

Despicable!

Here's your demon water!

Spiritual Armour...

Wong Fei-Hung, how dare you
bring trouble before our altar!

Master Gau Gung's name
has long been famous.

But I don't see the real person. How can I,
Wong Fei-Hung, hastily follow his teaching?

I demand to see your Master!

The Immortal Grandmaster?
How can you meet him so easily?

No meeting? I'll fight
my way in to meet him!

WHITE LOTUS

- Brazen scoundrel!
- You go first!

Surround him!

Now it's the final battle,
take care of yourself.

Heavenly winds, earthly fire.
Eight Diagrams returns to the source.

Surround him!

Let's see how magic
protects your body?

God...

Turns out it's all
an act of deception.

Spiritual Armour...

Yet more Spiritual Armour?

Master Gau Gung,
still not coming out?

It's a lot of hidden fancy tricks, that's
all. I've shown your true colours.

Protect the altar...

- White Lotus sons, fight to the death!
- Fight to the death!

I'll fight you, come up
anyone not afraid to die.

Our magic broke the umbrella!
Charge!

You, stop!
If you don't stop, I'll shoot.

You must see, this clay doll
can't protect you.

- No more superstition.
- You spread lies to deceive!

- You...
- Brother Hao-Dong!

Come here. I'll shoot you,
we'll see who doesn't die.

You step aside!

I have Spiritual Armour, I'm
not afraid of your foreign gun!

Spiritual Armour,
impervious to swords and spears.

Little girl, you will die.
Go away!

At the center there's White Lotus
protecting my homeland.

Quick, let's go!

I hit that little girl.

There isn't time to spare.
You go first.

Keep away.
Look at this crowd.

For a clay doll, they're
giving up their lives.

Brother Hao-Dong, let's go!

If every one of us is like this,
then how can there be salvation?

Where can I go?
I can't go.

Surround them!

Where can we go?
We can't go.

Don't let them go!

Emperor Zhen Wu,
support your son's golden body.

Spiritual Armour's great display of divinity.
Subdue the demon's magic for the heavenly path.

This is the Emperor Zhen Wu, I command the sons
of Ninth Palace to come kneel and worship.

Brazen Ninth Pa ace, how dare you borrow Dharmakāya
to desecrate this altar... ignorant youths!

Anger the heavens, disturb the people.
Let this seat stop you.

If you don't come out,
I'll burn my own altar.

The real Master Gau Gung.

Respectfully welcome Grandmaster Gau Gung,
spiritual leader of Southern Heavenly Gates.

Grandmaster of invincible divinity.

Holds the stars, sun,
and moon in the palm of his hand.

Grips thunder and lightning on
both heaven and earth in his fist.

The Eternal Mother passed on her teachings
to her son Gau Gung.

To establish a five-element altar in CHAOTIAN Monastery
and subdue the demon's magic for the heavenly path.

Respectfully welcome Emperor Zhen Wu's whose golden
body has descended to our precious CHAOTIAN Monastery.

Please climb the altar.

- Please climb the altar.
- OK, I'll climb your altar.

Come down and face me!

Rubbish!

- Trap him! Come up!
- As you order.

- Always need someone to help?
- I'm more than enough for you!

Get down!

Raise the altar.

- Protect the law.
- On it!

Emperor Zhen Wu arranged a broken altar.
Please climb the altar.

Yuan-Shi Tian-Zun,
support your son's golden body.

This rotten altar's for you.

Stay still...
How can this be?

You dare to tear down my altar?

Guard the Emperor!

Imperial cloth raises the altar.

It's your own route toward death.

The Four Heavenly Guardians of the Jade
Emperor. Before the palace, urgent as in law.

Come together to our precious CHAOTIAN
Monastery. Capture the Emperor Zhen Wu.

Guardian of the Terrifying Face.
Guardian of Compassion.

Little sister.

Call the Heavenly Guardians.
Come...

Gau Gung, you've searched the heavens
for Gods and Buddhas... are you done?

- One God is already enough.
- You offend heaven's law.

You'll be executed on the spot.

The Guardian moves like lightning.

Heaven's net.

Thirty-three Heavens'
powerful turns.

The Southern Heavenly Gates
are untenable.

Demon sweep.

Master Gau Gung's divinity is invincible. Grandmaster
subdues demon magic, scares away spirits.

Not going down yet?

Foshan's Shadowless Kick!

Rescue the Emperor!

Divine execution cloth!

I'm not the real Emperor Zhen Wu,
I'm Wong Fei-Hung.

True Gods and false demons,
can't you figure it out?

Wong Fei-Hung, accept your death!

White Lotus blossoms!

Plant your feet on the ground.

Cheating Gods, swindling ghosts!

Wong Fei-Hung, how dare
you commit sacrilege!

- Divine protection.
- Then heaven has no eyes.

Emperor's daybreak!

Your show is over.

You evildoer! You keep saying that a belief in
Buddhism will see the whole world at peace.

As a result, so many people have died.
I want to see how magic protects your body.

- There's nobody that can stop me!
- There is!

Grabbing Hand?
Like this!

- An iron panel.
- Turns out his magic is just an iron panel.

Now that their God is worthless,
in future they must depend on themselves.

- Magic protects the body!
- Grandmaster!

It makes no sense,
how can this happen?

Let's go.

What numbers?

I don't even know what to look at.
It's useless giving this to me.

Master.

Good, we're all together again.

It's six o'clock,
there's still time.

- Hey, where's the name register?
- Name register?

Shit! I was focused on distracting the
soldiers and forgot the name register.

Even now you're still so careless.

- I'm going back to the Salted Shrimp Bar.
- If we go back, will it be too late?

The register concerns human life.
I must get it.

Let's go.

SALTED SHRIMP BAR

Brother Hao-Dong, time is short
and you still go to the Salted Shrimp Bar?

The name register must be taken away no matter
what. After thirty minutes the ship has to leave.

We must rendezvous with
Yi-Xian at Shamian Pier.

You wait.

Ah Foon, go inside and see if Mr Lu
is ready. I'll keep a lookout here.

- Mr Lu, anything I can do to help?
- Got it, let's go!

Hey, there are soldiers.
Let's hide first.

This one.

- Master Wong, this way.
- Master.

Hurry up!

- I'm a dead man this time!
- Lift him up.

- Leung Foon, where are you hurt?
- Prepare a vigil, it hurts so much!

Fortunately it hit
the watch, else...

- Brother Hao-Dong!
- You, face down!

- Ah Foon, you lead the way.
- Brother Hao-Dong, hold on.

Master, this way.

Hey, don't run!

- Master, there's a way out.
- Let's go.

- Brother Hao-Dong, what happened?
- Master Wong, I can't move.

Leave me, you go.

- Let me help you.
- This name register is important.

It mustn't fall into the hands of the authorities.
Otherwise, many of our compatriots will be killed.

Help me in.

This piece of cloth can't burn.

Master Wong, please hand this
over to Yi-Xian in person.

Tell him I died for the revolution.
He must live for the revolution.

There are bloodstains here.
They're over there.

Ah Foon, look after Mr Lu.

Nap-Lan Yuen-Suet?

We meet again.

- Arrest all the rebels.
- Yes!

Don't move.
What are you burning?

Wong Fei-Hung, after tonight we'll
never again have the chance to compete.

I want to know how much of my
four gates stick method you can receive.

Bring it here.
Quickly!

Here you go!

Audacious!

The name register?
Hand it over.

Foon, do your own thing.
You don't need to worry. Don't come over.

Master, you be careful.

Mr Lu!

Nap-Lan Yuen-Suet, didn't you say
you wanted to try my stick method?

Wong Fei-Hung!

Come on, then!

- Come down to me!
- Come up!

Get the hell down!

You wanted a duel.

Fucking bastard!
You've gone too far!

You want to fight?
Why not come down?

Mr Lu!

Time... is most important...

Go to the pier...
on time... meet Yi-Xian.

Mr Lu!

Brother Hao-Dong!

Wong Fei-Hung, you have nowhere to go.
Come back.

You murdered the British attaché.
It'll come out sooner or later.

You have nowhere to go either.

Fine, then none of us
will go back.

Ah Foon, that piece
of cloth can't burn!

- Master!
- Ah Foon, go quickly. Time is of the essence.

Oh, no! Dead end.
Master, there's no way to escape.

Ah Foon, what time is it now?

I haven't learnt to read time,
but it's starting to get light.

Yi-Xian, there's not much time.

Yi-Xian must wait for
Hao-Dong to get on board.

Wong Fei-Hung.

Ask your apprentice to hand over the goods, so
I have a good explanation for when I go back.

He's not going to let us go.
Find a way to escape.

Go quickly go!

Cloth Stick?

Foon, make a way out
through this hole.

Foon, very clever.

Thank you very much!

- Foon, keep breaking out.
- I know, Master.

- Master, we can go now.
- Then you take the first step.

Foon!

Shadowless kick.

Master.

All aboard. Hurry up...

- Aren't you Sun Wen?
- Get on board.

Quick, we've found him.

Don't move!
Come back to the court.

Out of the way!

Grasp head, hoop hands,
rotate the horse.

- Master.
- Fei-Hung!

13th Aunt!

Hao-Dong, he...?

Brother Yi-Xian!

I wish the morning sun
would shine on my soil.

Never forget the
blood of our martyrs.

Brother Hao-Dong, your spirit will
forever be remembered in our hearts.

When you arrive,
I'll pick you up at the pier.

Ah Foon, are you
missing 13th Aunt?

- Master, are you?
- I was asking you, so why are you asking me?

I think you're now asking yourself.

Really?

Proudly laugh haughtily in the face
of ten thousand clashing waves.

The red sunlight, hot-blooded,
and burning victorious!

Gall like forged iron,

Bones like finest steel.

Mind as wide as one hundred thousand feet,

Vision that spans ten thousand miles long.

Swear an oath to become the
greatest by your own hand.

Be righteous and courageous!

Be a righteous and courageous man.

Become the greatest by
your own hand every day.

A hot-blooded male.

Burning victorious red sunlight!

Let the sea and the sky gather power for me

To tear the heavens asunder
and split the earth in two.

I advance forth for my ideals.

Watch the turquoise
ripples, tall and majestic.

And watch the azure sky, vast
with a noble spirit rising.

A man must become the
greatest by his own hand!
