Right, right, come on! Oh!

14, all winners paid!

Chan shu-gei as liang hsiao-hu

Uncle tung.

- Where is he? - He will appear when I want him to.

The people we want are here?

Just ignore them. Let's sit.

Pretend we're gamblers. No one will notice us.

Hey, come on, huh? What about me? I wanna play! Hey, you guys! Come on!

Listen.

Those are the five pupils of kwangtung tigers.

Your father challenged their masters and was killed.

Lung tung-sheng as wang chiao-ming

I'm no policeman.

He's the worst of the lot. He's wang chiao-ming.

He's the son of wang yin-iin of the kwangtung tigers.

His master is li Jen-chiao, the big brother of the kwangtung tigers.

- Oh... - Please, sir, please!

Hey, come on!

The one next to him is lin fu-sheng.

Chin siu-ho as lin fu-sheng

He's the pupil of two tigers, tieh chiao-San and su hei-hu.

That one is chen ta-chun. He's the nephew of iron-fingered chen.

He's also the pupil of, and works for, su hei-hu.

Hsiao yu as chen ta-chun

next to him is his cousin, called lin ping.

Chan hon-kwong as lin ping quite a powerful pair.

Both pupils of wang yin-iin.

- Huh? - See the man behind?

He's called tan chung, nephew of tan ming.

He works here.

Lin chih-tai as tan chung

also the most stable of the lot. Bear in mind, he'll be a tough one.

- Hey! - Come on, come on!

Uncle, what's holding you up?

I thought we planned to kill them first, then go for their masters.

That's what I had planned. You see, but now things are different.

With five of them all together, our chances are not good.

It's better if we wait till they split up.

It's to our advantage. You mustn't be so impulsive.

We must adopt a passive sort of attitude.

Right.

- Hey! - Get off our table!

- Come on, you! - You're ruining the game!

You've drunk too much. You're drunk. Now settle down, you guys.

Come on, settle down.

Hey.

Get up! Throw him out!

I got a winning hand, here.

Sure, sure, but you've drunk too much. Now come on, you come to bed, huh?

- I don't wanna go to bed. It's a winner! - Hey! He done well!

- Come on, let's go. - A wining hand...

Come on.

- What's wrong? - Hey, come on, come on.

Come on, take it easy.

I can find my own way to bed...

Oh, I don't wanna go to bed! No, I don't...

- Hey, come on. How about a drink? - Hey, you.

Go to sleep.

Uncle, this is our chance now that they've gone.

- We'll get chen tan-chung. - This is the right time.

We pretend we don't know each other, and start arguing and fighting.

Since he's the guard here,

he'll definitely come over to try and stop us.

- Then that's the time we will kill him. - Mm.

Last bets, ladies and gentlemen.

God damn you, bastard! How dare you cheat me?

What are you talking about?

- You little cheat! I'll show you! - Call me a cheat? I'll kill you!

- Hey, hey, hey. - Huh?

What's all the fuss? We don't want no fighting here.

I'll get him!

Hold it. I said there'd be no fighting.

Shut up, or I'll fight you.

Well, alright. You try it.

You lot, sober up! Quickly! Tan-chung has been killed!

- What? - Huh?

"There's more death to come. Liang hsiao-hu is here for revenge."

It's all my fault. I shouldn't have drunk so much.

You mustn't blame yourself. We're responsible, too.

Who is this liang sen-kuei and his son?

I know him. Master told me the story.

It's because of an anti-qing warrior, chai min-yi.

Ku feng as chai min-yi

There's a reward for whoever captures chai min-yi.

Mr. Chai, my name's li Jen-chiao.

Li Jen-chiao, you're a man of honor. I don't want to lie.

Chai min-yi is not my real name.

My real name is chu hung-ying, and I'm the one that led the revolution.

Tl lung as I! Jen-chiao I know of you. Sit.

You know, I'm listed as a wanted traitor. Do you know that?

Mr. Chai, you stay with me for the time being.

I'll try and figure out a way to get you out of here.

Thank you.

My group is waiting for me in the south. They must all be pretty anxious.

Mr. Chai, for your own safety, I advise you not to leave here yet.

You see this room? It's completely secure here.

It's used to store my customers' valuables.

Oh, this is a pawn shop, then?

Yes. I'm the pawnbroker and the owner.

Pawnbrokers

Oh, you're early.

Alexander fu sheng as tan ming yeah.

- You're practicing your boxing. - Mm-hmm.

Hey, come on, guys! In here, follow me!

- Pawnbroker's? - Huh?

Here.

Hey, how much do you want, then? These clothes are old.

- I want five taels. - Huh? Ridiculous!

You must be out of your mind.

But I need the money. I need it for my dying mother.

- Huh! - Hey.

- Pay him. - Huh? But they're torn.

Pay him. Alright.

- Hey! - Hey, look, fellas!

Here, come on, buy it.

Here, how much for this vase?

Three taels of silver.

Find out from tan ming what this is all about.

Right.

You just hold it there, and don't move a Bob or you'll get hurt.

I must say, our boss is smart.

- That was a great idea! - That li Jen-chiao is too kind.

I dare say that he'll be broke in a year's time, and that's for sure.

Oh!

- Causing trouble? - It's not my fault, no! It's...

Mr. Chou, he forced us.

You see this?

- No, please! - No, no, please!

Please!

It's too late to plead. You cheated.

I should give you a lesson you'll never forget.

Some broken bones!

- Oh, no! - Please, no!

- Don't! - No, please!

Hey, you're being too harsh.

Do me a favor and just let them go.

They're sorry for what they did. Can't you see?

- Seeing my brother? - Yeah.

Dick wei as wong ching-ho wei pai as wong kei-ying

- _ go! - Oh, yes...

Idiots, idiots! You're all such idiots. You're hopeless!

We'll soon see. He'll pay!

Brother li, you have my word that I'll help you in this.

Hmm.

I've a few more helpers in mind. First on the list is wang yin-iin.

Also, I'd like to get su hei-hu.

Wang yin-iin and su hei-hu are both from well-known clans.

Do you think they'll volunteer themselves for this? Bear that in mind.

What do you want wang yin-iin and su hei-hu for?

I know where they are. I'll go get them.

I'll bring them back, one way or the other.

He's very temperamental. That's his nature.

That's why I haven't told him about Mr. Chai yet.

Tell me, is it true that because of his temper,

his grandfather refused to teach him kung fu?

That's right. He taught himself kung fu. He's good, too.

He had this blind ambition that one day he's gonna beat us.

Sun chien as wang yin-lin

Heh! Seven sevens is 49.

27 are high, 22 short.

It's the seven star lama style.

You must be wang yin-iin. Am I right?

- Who are you? - Tan ming.

- I know of you. - You do?

That's good.

My brother, li Jen-chiao, and two of his very good friends,

they want to see you. Hmm?

Hey, you coming down?

Huh?

Come on.

You... you wanna fight?

Huh.

Hey, better we fight down here.

Tan ming, stop it!

If I stop, I'll be killed.

- Brother wang, please stop! - He can't stop, either.

Brother wang, please excuse him.

I'm li Jen-chiao.

Hmm! Your reputation in kung fu is well known.

You need not bring them. Are you afraid you're going to lose?

Is that why you have the wang masters on standby?

You're mistaken. Brother li came here to ask for your help. He meant no harm.

Hmm! Is this the kind of help he needs?

Very funny. Please go, now.

Huh?

Tan ming, go and apologize to brother wang.

I've no time for trifles. I'm going.

Lu feng as su hei-hu

- Let's get on with the job. - Come on.

Mipu pier

- pass it over here. - Come on.

- Hey. - Who are you? What do you want?

Who is this guy, huh?

Well... I am here to see your boss.

I was told he's a very reasonable man.

But I didn't expect this. Is this your welcome?

Whoa!

- Master! - Hmm?

Master, there's a man giving us trouble. He's outside.

No one dares cause trouble in my place.

You must have provoked him into fighting you.

I'll sort it out.

Over there!

Stop!

Hmm. Su hei-hu?

- Who are you? - Tan ming.

You don't seem friendly. What do you want?

That what you think? I wanna fight you!

You're not good enough to fight me. You're weak!

Hah!

Li Jen-chiao!

Li Jen-chiao! I've got something here for you!

Ha! I should have known.

You're all unreasonable.

Hey, enough for now.

Brother li, you overestimated su hei-hu. He's not very good.

You're su hei-hu?

Huh. You're so tricky. I should have drowned you!

Ha! You should have. And you wouldn't have got hit then.

Bastard!

Brother su, I'm sorry.

It's my fault. It really is.

What's all this about?

Hey, this man's a troublemaker.

Wang lin-yin, wang chi-ying, give me a hand.

- Let's get rid of him. - I think you're due for some punishment.

Ooh!

Hey, please excuse our little brother. I've already taught him a lesson.

Please forgive him.

It's alright. His tang boxing's not bad. He nearly beat me.

Luckily, I got him in water.

Chu hung-ying, an anti-qing activist.

He's been branded as a wanted man by the government, but he's a hero.

I want to thank you for your kindness. I shall remember.

All of us here are from Shaolin.

Maybe from different clans, but I'm sure everyone will agree to join in this.

- You know, we need your assistance. - I understand.

Before I heard this, I couldn't care.

But now, now that I know about it, I must help you. It's my duty.

He's right.

We mustn't let anyone know he's here.

They have a search warrant for him. We must be careful.

- Right. We'll be careful. - You're my biggest worry.

We'll meet here every day and exchange views.

Because it's not safe for us to meet in public.

- Yeah.

Pawnbrokers

Ahh, come in, come in.

Why is su hei-hu visiting at such an hour?

Come on in.

Now, enjoy yourselves.

Oh! Welcome.

Welcome, come.

Calm down. She'll be here soon. Just be patient.

- Better be true this time, anyway. - Have some?

- Your health. - Good health!

- Cheers. - Hsiao hung, listen.

You go and entertain Mr. Liang and make him happy.

Your job is to make him drink, forget his work.

That's right, yes!

- Bottoms up. - A drink? Oh!

Mr. Liang is not in a good mood. You'd better leave.

Yes.

You know I have orders to capture chai min-yi within a month.

Time's running short and I still couldn't find him.

- You'll find him. - Mm. You think it's that easy, huh?

- Up till now, no sign of him. - Oh! Ha-ha!

Chiao tung-San, I remember chasing him once.

It was somewhere near your shop. Then he vanished.

Hmm. I hope you're not putting him up.

Ah! Oh, no, no, no. No, no.

Don't say things like that. I'll be beheaded!

If not, why are you so scared?

Listen...

Now, listen. You know the story.

You understand just how my father and the others got themselves involved.

They helped because they believed it was right.

Also, the government was rotten. It was filled with corruption and lies.

Philip kwok as beggar su

he-e-ey!

Now listen, folks. Here's the show.

Don't miss it! Stick around.

Watch me play... ha-ha! And tip me if it's good!

Well?

Yang hung as iron arm San

wait. The show will start in a minute!

Wow!

What's funny?

What sort of kung fu is this? It looks like a circus somersault.

Oh! You have no knowledge of what real kung fu is.

Oh, iwasted my time again.

You just did the famous scissors kick. Not many people know that.

Ah! You obviously know kung fu.

Also, very perceptive.

Hey, what about me?

What's so unusual about your scissors kick?

Hey, kiddo. You good in kung fu?

Course. Want a fight?

I'll fight on one condition.

If you wait and hold back, I'll punch you once.

If you don't, you'll have some broken bones.

If you get close and punch me, I'll knock my head against the stairs till I die.

Good. If I don't get to punch you once, I'll do the same and knock my head.

Right. That's a deal, then.

Don't waste time. Come on.

Mr. Li.

Did you hear? If tan ming fails to punch that man, he'll have to kill himself!

- You'd better stop them. - Oh.

Ahh!

There they are.

Ha-ha! Now go knock your head.

Ha-ha! Don't get fresh with me! You didn't hit me.

- What? You lying... you... - Tan ming.

- What are you up to this time? - He lost his bet and he should pay.

Huh? Where'd you manage to hit me?

Why, you...

Hey.

Two against one? That's not fair. Leave 'em.

I'm trying to stop them.

No, you don't.

Tieh chiao-San!

That's right.

- What's this? Come on. - Get out of the way.

What's all this? Having a fight? Who started this? Come on, speak up.

Oh, officer... it's just fun.

Mr. Li, you've stopped defending yourself.

Aren't you afraid I'll attack you?

I know you. You're a man of words and honor.

That's well known, tieh chiao-San.

- Well done! - It's alright.

Thank you.

- Master. - Mm-hmm?

Come with me.

You two are real martial experts.

I'd like to invite you both back for some tea.

Tea? Haven't you got wine?

- Oh, yes! Go bring some wine. - Coming!

Hey! I drink a lot!

- Bring the bottle. - Right.

I must be lucky today to be able to witness such kung fu.

I've heard your name, master tieh, and I'm most impressed with you.

This gentleman is, er...

Help yourself.

My name is su chan. They call me beggar su.

You both are such skilled martial experts.

You two should have a gymnasium here and start taking in pupils.

I'll put up the money and you two will run it by yourselves.

Baozhiyuan

Chiang sheng as chou yu-sheng

Heh.

Please.

Oh, the pole?

So, you're chou yu-sheng.

The scissors kick. You're su chan.

- They call me beggar su. - I like fighting.

- So do I. - I like wine, too.

- You know, wine's my life. - And I gamble.

Oh?

Come on, folks. Come and make some money.

Hey, hey. That's us. Come on, let's go.

Here come the winners!

You lose, sir.

Hey, hey, hey.

Come on, you guys, move out. Let some real gamblers get in here.

Come on, move out, move out.

Now, where are we? Let's get it, come on.

What's this? These young people coming in here, what do they think they're doing?

Go on.

Nines and aces!

- Who are these guys? - What do they think they're doing?

Oh!

Lo meng as iron finger chen

- we made it! - Hey! Leave the money there.

- Why? We won it, huh? - Oh, have you?

See the dominoes?

- You blind? - See? We won.

Let me see.

You lost.

- Huh? - Huh?

Yeah.

- Hold it. - What?

- Why are these two shorter? - Hmm.

I know who you are. You're chen tieh-chi.

Your name's iron-fingered chen. They say you've steel fingers.

Well, listen. Why don't we have a bet together?

Oh? Challenge me? What are you gonna bet with?

Huh? Whatever your bet is, we'll do the same.

Hmm.

You lift these two dominoes, you'll win the bet.

Take it?

- What's the bet? - Hmm.

Let me see. You win, you can have my two fingers.

Su chan, what can we do with two fingers?

Have it with wine!

Good. What a good idea!

Move!

Hmm.

Argh!

We won! And you lost!

Two fingers! Two fingers!

Oh! Come on, your two fingers.

Heh!

- Oh, so you're chou yu-sheng. - Correct.

Huh. And now that you've lost, these two fingers should be mine, okay?

- You used them without asking me? - Hah!

Hey, get a knife. I want to chop 'em off.

Good. These two fingers look very useful.

Bastard! They're no use then!

That seems to make sense.

- Su chan? - Hmm?

You got any suggestions?

Huh? Pwoar! Ooh!

Let him keep 'em.

- Two fingers are useless to us. - Mm-hmm.

Thank you, thank you!

Bullshit! These two fingers belong to me. I don't need your permission!

Hey, you lost 'em.

No more arguments. It's all our fault. We started it.

Also, we were a bit drunk when we walked in here.

Huh, let's go have a drink.

- You're right. - Hey, that's no problem!

All drinks on me tonight.

Ooh!

Let's go, quick!

Alright! Come on.

Hey, wait for me! I'm coming along, too!

Hey, you drunk too much!

- Here? - What, here?

Huh?

- Is this the place? - Yeah.

- Yeah. - This is it.

Come on, then.

- Open up! Open the door! - Open the door!

Open the door!

Open the door!

Hide.

No problem.

Hah!

It's you again! What is this?

- It's me! - Why bother us?

- Huh? - Huh.

Li Jen-chiao, this is not fair at all,

for two of you to fight with just one beggar.

It's not true. He started it.

Huh? Heh!

Good kung fu!

- You're not bad. - Right! It's iron fingers.

Chou yu-sheng, I think you'd better stop.

We'll meet again.

Hold it! I want to know who's behind this.

Get lost! No one gives us orders.

- What do you think? - There's something fishy about them.

We must all be careful what we do.

- Who's the iron fingers? - Chen tieh-chi. Security guard.

Come on.

- Hold it! - Hmm?

Oh! So, it's you, Mr. Wang.

Anything wrong? What is it?

Nothing much. We just have orders to keep an eye on all sorts of strangers.

Mr. Wang, see you soon.

- Move! - Right.

We must try to get Mr. Chai away as soon as possible.

It's not safe here.

Pao yulin can be quite a safe place. Why don't we hide him there for a while?

It's not safe enough. I know what we'll do.

Sansheng association

Hey, great! Really good show, really good.

Alright, I'll ask him!

Mr. Chen, we are honored to have you here as our kung fu teacher.

Would you please demonstrate your skills to us?

Please, please.

Right.

- Hey! - Hey, look at that!

- Watch! - Grand!

- Chiao tung-San. - Sir.

I hate to interfere with your business.

I heard you just opened a gymnasium in town.

You do know that it's strictly forbidden by the court?

Oh, uh... I know. I'm not the only one. Everyone is opening one.

And believe me, I have a reason for this.

I'm using that to set up a front for you.

My new recruits all have good kung fu. I'll use them to fight each other.

I had you to keep an eye on the pawn shop.

- Got any news? - Oh, nothing for now.

But then, I can assure you, it won't be long.

I already have my men watching them day and night now.

Hmm. Does that mean that you're working for me now?

- Precisely, sir. - Good.

- Keep me informed of what's happening. - Right. Of course.

Please, feel free.

Hey, and me, huh?

Thank you.

Hsiao hung, sit down. I'd like to have a talk with you.

This is my friend. He's in trouble, now.

I'd like him to stay with you, just for the time being.

But, of course, we'll pay you. Whatever you want, we'll double it.

Listen, don't feel obliged just because I'm asking you.

I'll leave right away if you're not willing to.

- Mr. Li, I'll do it on one condition. - Tell me.

I want you to pay off my debts and get me out of here.

For that, I'll let him stay here and look after him.

I'll make sure that no one knows that he's staying here with me.

- That reasonable? - Good. That's a deal, then.

Alright, alright. You go get madam now.

Oh, Mr. Chai.

You're in good hands. She's very trustworthy.

I've known her for years. I can assure you, you'll be safe here.

You two stay here and protect Mr. Chai until he leaves.

Yin-iin, I can trust you.

- Tan ming. - Huh?

I want you to stay here and not to leave till I say so.

- Right. - Remember.

Hey, waiter. See those two men? Are they regulars?

They are the newcomers.

Been here a few days. I've never seen them before.

No idea of rules. It's very annoying.

- I heard they're gonna stay here. - Stay here?

I was told Mr. Li of shun heng pawn shop brought them.

There's another man. He booked hsiao hung to himself, for a month!

- No one's seem him since. - Never leaves the room?

Listen, I just remembered I have something important to do.

I'll see you back here.

What do you think?

I feel this, I'm sure that one of them is the one you've been looking for.

Ahh...

I've got it!

Chou yu-sheng, chen tieh-chi, they both have grudges with tan ming.

I'll try my best to get them start fighting.

And then, you'll have a good reason to conduct a raid.

They're up there.

Tan ming! You're a coward. Come on down!

- Come down! - Yeah!

Huh?

You have orders to stay, remember?

You afraid of us, or what is it?

- Come on! - Yeah, come on down!

- We're waiting! - Brother li left us in charge.

If we don't go down, they'll come up anyway.

Hey, wait!

- Okay! - Okay.

Hey, let me.

Hey! Li Jen-chiao, we want you!

- He's not here. - Oh?

- Soldiers are coming! - What's going on? Stop!

Fighting? In broad daylight? You all step aside.

- No one leaves till I say so. - Come on!

Damn it! Soldiers are here. Protect Mr. Chai!

Search the place!

Huh?

- _ go! - Right!

- Go on! - Come on.

Tieh chiao-San, you've not lived up to your reputation.

- You surprise me, working for them. - You're insulting me.

Didn't you get a reward for telling 'em we're here?

Let's go.

Come on.

We only came here to challenge tan ming.

We don't know why the guards are here.

Mr. Chiao, tell us. Was it you?

No!

Huh! You arranged all this. We're not so stupid as to let you use us!

Please listen. This is quite complicated, so let me explain.

- Li Jen-chiao has a wanted man. - So what?

I know it's all my fault. Forgive me, but, you see, he is my enemy.

He has burned my house, destroyed my land, took everything I had.

And then he raped and he killed my wife. Now do you understand?

The man is protected by li. Until now, the court can't find him.

I know you all have a sense of justice.

You all must help me, or else I've got no one else to turn to.

Huh! If that's true, we'll help to get him!

I'll pay you all for helping me.

- We don't need money! - Oh, I... I didn't mean it that way.

I offered it as an act of gratitude to all of you.

Alright. We'll take care of it.

- Come on. - Thank you, thank you!

It's getting critical.

Su hei-hu, you go and make all necessary arrangements.

Right.

Chai, come on.

Listen, I've gotta leave now. I'll sort this out next time I see you.

Fine. But he's staying!

- You're working for them, too? - Don't know what you mean.

But you can't leave with him. You'll deal with us first!

Do me a favor. Get him out of here!

- Come on! - Let's get out of here.

Cheng-ke, take him away!

Mr. Chai, come with me to the pier!

Listen to me! Please stop fighting!

You can take me back to the court. They'll give you a reward.

That's not what I want you for.

I want you because you've committed arson and rape, and murder, too!

Listen. What did you say?

- I guess you know this man. - A rapist and murderer!

Stop it. Tieh chiao-San, you've heard of chai min-yi?

Tieh chiao-San, I was told you were a decent man,

'cause you joined to fight the qings.

Haven't you heard of the leader, chai min-yi?

- Huh? - Huh?

Mr. Chai, I hear you've failed in your campaign.

They say you're heading towards the south.

My hunan friends asked me to see you. You're no enemy.

God damn, I'm so stupid!

It wasn't your fault. It's clear now.

Huh?

So you're known as chai min-yi? Chu hung-yin's your false name?

Hey. That bastard's been misleading us all the time.

- Hmm! - Hey.

- Where are you going? - I'm gonna kill him!

Ah, just hold it.

The most important thing now is to get Mr. Chai away. Huh?

Right.

Once he reaches the pier, a boat will take him across.

Once he's got across, he'll be safe.

Butldoubt_

Now, listen. You can count on us to hold them.

All of us will be willing to risk our lives.

Right.

In that case, come with me.

What they're doing is trying to spread confusion,

hoping that'll start a war among them.

Luckily, the misunderstanding's clear. They failed in their plans.

- What are our plans now, then? - Find someone to go to the pier.

You come with us.

We'll go out and try something. I'm sure they have spies on us.

We'll get rid of them, first.

From now on, everyone must be careful.

What about the show tomorrow? Shall I close it?

Don't close it. They may suspect.

You just go and do your normal routine. I'll get some help.

You just keep an eye on any suspect, then tell us.

- We'll fix it. - Right.

We're here.

Oh, you found it.

Tung chi. He must be the son of Mr. Liang.

You're right.

Hsiao-hu, he'll tell you everything about the incident with chen wen-jie.

He's a distant relative of chen ta-chun.

Oh, Mr. Chen?

Now, don't you worry. Mr. Chen is trustworthy.

Sit down, sit down.

Hey, come on, then. Let's play a few games. Let them do their business.

Hsiao-hu, I can read your mind.

Although I'm a relative of chen ta-chun,

we don't get along because of some old grudges before.

Also, your uncle knows me very well. I've been working for him for years.

If you're my uncle's friend, then you're a friend of mine.

The truth is, I do know what happened during the past.

- I can still remember it clearly. - Do tell me.

Your father was a good wu-tang martial expert.

There's not many who can match up with him.

Even the ten tigers find him very hard to tackle.

Then came this one man, li.

Mipu pier

Li Jen-chiao, I've been waiting here for you. I knew you would turn up.

You are blessed. You've been lucky. I wish I got you last time.

En garde. I'll let you try my wu-tang style.

Brother li, I've arranged everything.

- Just signal when you want any help. - Good.

I'd like to try your wu-tang style. Let's begin, then!

That's how your father got killed. That's all I know.

- I'll kill them all! - You be patient.

Listen, it's all planned.

You know they've more people on their side than us here.

We will stick to our plan,

kill the young ones first, then we will nail all the older ones.

By doing it this way we split our forces.

I do not want to make the same mistake as your father.

- This is our only chance. - Good idea.

By plan is to kill them one by one.

But they all have to be in succession, so we get them by surprise.

I know that all the pier workers take their morning tea in here without fail.

We'll both disguise ourselves and wait for chen ta-chun.

You'll handle the lin brothers and lin fu-sheng at the guangxiao temple.

Right.

Guangxiao temple

- Ready? - Right.

Step right up, ladies and gentlemen! Step right up!

Here's the best show you will ever see!

Gather round, everybody. Gather round.

Come and see the show, people.

- The best show you'll ever see. - A hell of a show.

- Gather round, gather round. - Come on, people.

That's good. Get a good circle, there, come on.

Get in closer. Get in closer, there.

Right.

- Okay. - Step back, everybody.

Step back, please, step back.

Give the man some room. Step back, step back!

Very good, huh? Good!

Treasured flavors restaurant

hey, don't go yet! Hey, listen.

Something urgentjust popped up. Can you take over my place?

Sure, no problem.

This meal's on me. I'll give you my pay for today.

See you tomorrow. Don't work too hard, eh?

Hey, ta-chun, I've been looking for you. It's lucky that I've found you.

- Oh! Anything important? - Oh... excuse me.

Come here, come on. Come on.

- Good news. - Oh?

- What is it? - Let me tell you.

- I've won a lottery! - That so? Congratulations!

Thank you. I'm here to invite you to come along.

You take a day off, I'll book the restaurant.

We'll both have a big feast, then visit the brothel later in the evening.

Huh, sounds good. Todayjust happens to be my day off.

But then, I've something else to do.

Ah, do it some other time. What's more important than having fun?

Ta-chun, go enjoy yourself. See you tomorrow.

- We must leave now. Come on! - Goodbye, goodbye. Thank you.

- Thank you! - Come on. Let's go.

You're lucky. Your men encourage you to have some fun, huh?

Come on, let's sit down. Sit down, have a chat, huh? Come on.

Listen, I'd like to, but I can't make it.

Ah, what's so important, then?

I'm sure you can leave it for now. Come on, sit down.

Hey! Don't push me.

A friend of mine's in trouble. I promised I'd go and help him.

Don't be stubborn!

Hold it. Why are you so anxious for me to go with you?

Mr. Chen, save your breath for now.

There's something fishy about this. What is it you both want?

Hmm.

You remember what happened last night?

Well, today it's your turn.

Mr. Chen, you'd better go outside.

Anyone comes, try and stop them from coming in here.

- Just say we're closed. - Yeah, sure.

There's nothing to see here, come on.

So, I see you're the one that did it last night.

You're not stupid.

Liang hsiao-hu?

I'm not. He's somewhere else. I'm sure you know of me.

Tung chi sound familiar?

Mm. You used to work with general liang.

A pity you didn'tjoin him together in hell.

You should've died long ago.

Go get yourself some kind of weapon. I want this to be a fair match.

My speciality... anything I find becomes a weapon!

Good. If that's the way you want it, suits me fine.

Hey, look.

- Hey, you can't go in. - We only came for tea.

The shop is closed. Go somewhere else.

Mr. Tung is trying to arrest a wanted man.

This whole thing is official. Go on, go. Go on!

Let's go.

- Hey! - Huh?

- Huh? - Huh?

What is it?

Great! Fantastic!

Thank you.

- Look at that. - Wow!

Brother, you do look like you're a martial expert.

That's right. But then, from what I just saw, you're better.

You're being kind.

Shall I give you a demonstration?

Why not? I made enough money today. I think we'll close.

- Come on. - Thank you.

Let's go over here, then.

Tomorrow. Come again tomorrow. Thank you, thank you.

Thank you very much.

Let's start.

Huh?

Murderer!

Murderer!

- Get back, get back! - Stand aside!

Move away, there! Make way!

Murderer!

Listen to me, folks. He is a wanted criminal.

That's why he's dead. I need cooperation.

If his friends come, no one is to say a word about what happened.

Those who disobey will find themselves in jail.

I hope that is clear.

Uncle...

You'll stay here and wait for lin fu-sheng.

I have to go now. You know what to do when he turns up.

- Mm. - Take 'em away!

Sir!

Showtime!

Come on, come on, come on.

- Where's lin fu-sheng? - Who's lookin' for him?

Oh, it's me... Just a friend of his.

-Soaml - oh.

They went to attend a friend's funeral, won't be back today.

They asked me to look after the store.

- What's your name, then? - Uh...

Oh, it's lin chiao-hu.

How odd. Same family name.

Oh, not quite the same. I'm only a distant cousin.

Oh! Ha-ha! Lin is very enterprising.

Oh, common name.

- That right? - Mm.

Hey, uh, it's important you see him today?

We're supposed to have a match.

Oh? A friendly match? Well, let me take his place.

Ha! You're nowhere near to it.

Lin fu-sheng's very good. Ha!

He's the number one pupil of famous tieh chiao-San,

pupil of beggar su.

Oh?

And lin ping is the only pupil of wang yin-iin.

Of the ten kwangtung tigers,

they have mastered half of the tigers' skills.

Oh, that I do know. Lin fu-sheng is good.

Ha! Need I say, he's number one?

- Hey. - Hmm?

Since you're a brother to lin fu-sheng,

he must've taught you some of his kung fu.

Oh, I'm not as good as him. But I'm a competent fighter.

- Oh, that's good. - Alright, then.

We've both been wanting to learn the ten tigers' kung fu.

Hey, you watch this.

Hmm.

Hey, er...

Thank you.

This is tieh chiao-San's kung fu.

He stand like solid rock. His arms are strong, aggressive.

He's unbeatable.

- You try. - Right.

Oh, thank you, thank you.

- Hey, light these. - Sure.

Oh!

Steady, now.

Not too much smoke, is it? Close your eyes, it'll be alright.

Now, just keep it up. You alright?

- How come you're so hopeless? - You try it, then!

You've no willpower at all.

You're just not cut out for this sort of kung fu.

You're not strong enough.

We'll try wang yin-iin's famous lama style.

- Huh? - Hmm.

Better now?

The lama style... basically, it's different from the Poles you practiced before.

Same in principle, though. Pity we don't have any Poles.

Hey, but we can use those jars there.

Hey, hold it! Those are mine.

Huh? Oh, thank you.

- Hmm. - Okay.

Wait there.

Ahh! Ahh!

Huh?

- What are you doing that for? - We're just practicing beggar kung fu.

- Come on! - Let's go!

Don't be afraid. We'll help you with your practice.

It's not as easy as you think, huh?

I think I can tell you now, I'm the lin fu-sheng.

This friend of mine here is wang chiao-ming,

song of wang yin-iin, your hated enemy.

- Oh? - Mm-hmm.

You filthy swine! It's not fair!

You're not giving me a fair chance.

You gave no one a chance. Why should we play fair?

You don't deserve it.

- Let's go. Soldiers will be here. - Mm.

Hey! Over here! Over here!

- Cut him down! - Right!

- You both understand what I said? - Yes, we do.

You must be careful.

Because we can't be with you. You'll depend on yourselves.

- We know that. - Go, then.

Hey! Chiao-ming, what's with this fighting?

We got enough problems!

- What's wrong with fighting? - Stupid bastard!

- You'll regret this! - Shut up and leave me alone!

Huh? Hey, look what you did to my chair!

No games.

Wang chiao-ming, lin fu-sheng, I know that you're both only pretending.

So save time, let's play for real!

How stupid.

Huh. You're not that stupid. I've been here some time.
