Original subtitles

The car is overheated

We have no choice but to wait

You don't want me to see lp Man tonight

I don't? I have been doing my best to help

So that you can see him tonight

What are you doing?

I'll walk the rest of the way

At such a time

Still in the mood to look at a tree?

Leaves will fall in time

Like human beings, we may not want it to come

But the last day will be here

Look, it's so windy outside

But not a leaf has fallen

Because they can't bear to go

What about you? You can bear to go?

No

Please...

Let us out

Please... we want to see our son

Give us our son... please we want to see our son

Just go

We want to see our son...

We want to see our son...

Go away

We want our son...

We want to see our son...

We want to see our son...

It's daybreak already

The visit hour is over

Go back to wait for his body

You... are beasts... I won't let you off

Let us in...

We want to see our son

We want to see our son... I...

Uncle, Auntie, let us go back first

I have a way to save lp Man

What way?

Give the house deed to Ng Pak-lam

He promises to give him a month

Then...

Commander

Ching-shan, how's this?

A very good gun indeed

I am using it to kill lp Man

But what we agreed on last night...

I am not a fool

I know you mean to play Mr Nice to that woman

Now that it's over

You too want lp Man dead

Commander, you've got me wrong

I only have your interest in mind

The lp's Mansion is the best and largest house in town

Now the chance to get it is in front of you

Your current abode is too small for your status

Only the lp's Mansion is worthy of you

The lp's Mansion sure is not bad

Of course

Moreover, it has another meaning

If you move into the lp's ancestral house

It will make the unruly people see

That even lp Man has to bow to you

You've got a point

Commander, let's wait for one more month

Then we can kill lp Man

He's in prison anyway, what can he do?

He can't get out

Why don't we have our fun with him first?

Then we'll kill him in a month

You really mean to give him hell?

We'll have our fun first

Then we'll kill him

Then keep an eye on him

Make sure nothing will go wrong

Don't worry, he can't escape me

The mansion...

I am sure they are on their way

I am impatient, I just can't wait

Alright, let me go out to check

Ko Commander

Lam Ching-shan spares no efforts in doing lp Man in

He's even getting me the lp's Mansion

I am not his dad or granddad

What is he up to?

It's not for me to speculate

But I am well-aware of everything

If I let him pull wool over my eyes

I'll die like Baldy Lo did

Keep an eye on him and debrief me on his every move

Yes

Should I kill lp Man or not?

Yes

No

You take it

The deed buys lp Man a month's time

Uncle, believe me

With a month to work on it We can save lp Man

Say no more, we understand

Man has you by his side, he's blessed

Once Man is back

We are already a complete and happy family

The deed is here

It's too late now

I said no later than 12:30 pm It's now 1:00 pm

Ng Pak-lam got impatient and went to the jail to kill lp Man

What?

Come on

I came back from Hong Kong full of hope

Because I knew Guangdong and Guangxi were under the revolutionary government

The most progressive government in China

I believe they will respect the law and the spirit of the contract

You may be a martial arts practitioner

You are still too naive

But maybe you are right

Maybe because of this, you'll attain what Leung Pik and I cannot reach

Watch my signal

Disperse

Disperse... come on...

Come on, disperse

Go!

Don't shoot

Don't shoot... stop it...

Stop!

Stop!

Stop... stop

Is this a revolt?

Halt!

Stop!

Stop...

Ip Man, you can't go away

Master lp, run!

Lp Man, if you run, they will die

Master lp, your life is more valuable Just run...

What about a deal?

I'll let you go, and this is forgotten

No

I am going to be shot anyway

Why can't you just wait?

Alright

The guns are loaded

Whoever dares to move

Shoot first and ask later

No...

Big Ox, guys, if you see me as your friend

Don't waste your lives for me

Master lp, no...

Squat

Master lp, run... run

Mentor

Take it easy, a dry run only

Take a look

You think your head is harder than the bricks?

Why are you smiling?

You are going to die, you know it?

Commander, should we take him out?

Do it here

I am surprised, you don't want to take a chance?

If death is my fate

I don't want more sacrifices

I am so touched

What a worthy young man

You have your last word?

Mentor, after I am gone, you...

I'll still be Cashier Wah

Mentor, I am not afraid of death

It's just that I am not contented

I want to know more about the world

I want to contribute more

I never thought I would die at this age

Ng Pak-lam asked me why I was smiling

I didn't give him the answer

Because he wouldn't understand

Now I can tell you why

A leaf may fall, but the tree is still there, it will not change

You done now?

Master lp

Give way

Master lp

Master lp

Halt...

Commander Ng, the deed you want is here

Too late now

No, no... it is delivered

You can ask the lp family to move out now

You can move in this evening

Commander Ng, please take it

Commander

Please honour your word and take it

lp Man

lp Man, your ancestral house is now mine

You have any objections?

No, no

Say it

It's the lp family's fault

They understand their wrongdoing now

Kill him No...

He's bad tempered, please Don't be mad with him

Please, take the deed

Let lp Man say it

I can do it for him

Who are you to do it for him? You are not an lp

I am his fiancee, I can say it on behalf of the lp family

Wing-shing, you...

Commander Ng, please accept the deed

lp Man has a good wife

Wing-shing, just now when I had a brush with death

I understand, your regret was that you shouldn't die this way

Your regret was that there were so many things you wanted to get done

that your aspirations shouldn't have been shattered just like that

But it was you who gave me the peace of mind

I remembered the moments we spent together

Even if it was the end of my life

Our mutual understanding had made it a fulfilled life

It would soon be over

You will be released in a month

There are many things I can do in a month

Still writing those letters?

You just won't give up?

Mentor, should a martial arts practitioner admit defeat?

You have a bigger heart than I do

Chan Wah-shun, you can go now

So soon?

Come on

Mentor, I'll be fine

Are you leaving or not?

Mentor, go back and have a good sleep

Old man, where are you going?

Don't take anything away except your clothes, you hear me?

Let me

Uncle, Auntie

Man, he... He's fine

Let me

Buddha and Goddess of Mercy

Please bless Man, that he'll be back safe and sound

Mr lp, as people say

Every dog has its day

With the revolution, we are in a new age

Old money has to give way to us military men

Commander Ng, I wonder who will replace you in the coming revolution

See yourselves out

Come on

Good... good...

This should be celebrated

Send out invitations to anyone who's somebody in Foshan

Yes, they should bring you gifts

Uncle, Auntie, maybe you should go to a hotel

Wing-shing, you have helped us a lot

This house is habitable

It's just been left vacant for a while

Some tidying up will do

Wing-shing, we are getting on

We won't feel easy living with you

lt'll be fine here

Let me help you tidy it up

You just sit here, come on

No, let us do it ourselves

Right...

What is it?

Spider

Silly girl

Zi

If you want it

Let me get him out of the prison

If you do that, our efforts will be wasted

But you are being kicked around you know it?

I can't stand seeing you being fooled by Lam Ching-shan

I can't stand seeing you bow to Ng Pak-lam

But lp Man and I want it this way

You both are fools

Zi, lp Man is fortunate to have you as his brother

It's my good fortune too

Come in and sit down

I know nothing about such

I just know lp Man will soon be shot

I can't let him die

Let me do something for you

What can I do for you? Just say it

Live on

lp Man doesn't want to be anyone's burden

Where's Yim Chun-loi? Let me go to him

Let me take him back to testify for lp Man

lp Man and I won't let you

It will only harm Chun-loi

You are worried that he'll be silenced?

I don't care about his life or death

I just know lp Man can't die

But even lp Man doesn't know where he is

That time Ng Pak-lam had a fengshui master look for a site for him

He wanted my grandparents' grave

demanded that we exhume the remains out and let him move his ancestors' in

I'd been a bully since I was small

How could I suffer that?

I punched the fengshui master and I got thrown in here

Actually it's not about me doing time here

It's about what happened to my parents

My mom cried so hard that she turned blind

My dad went to Ng Pak-lam and he got crippled

Master lp, when you go to Ng Pak-lam for revenge, count me in

Me too

Me too

Me too

Big Ox, your parents want you to go back to them safe and sound

Don't do silly things

Violence is not a solution

I can't swallow it

Trust me, let me avenge you

Put your fingerprint here

Further to the left...

Yes, the left

Yes, the left

You are almost there

Almost there, go for it

Big Ox, your fingerprint

Letter writing really can topple Nig Pak-lam?

That's my belief

Foshan Prison

Halt

Officers, mistaken identity?

I am just a postman

So?

Listen, from tomorrow on

No collecting of letters from that letterbox

But I have to, I am a postman

You hear me?

Yes

Let's go

Be smart

Be honest with me

Did Lam Ching-shan know about it?

He didn't

You are lying

You have warned me, I wouldn't dare

Moreover, Brother Ching-shan is smart

He would know without me telling him

Wing-sing, we are now on the cliff's edge

We have to be very careful

Don't be so paranoid

Why hide it from Brother Ching-shan?

Why not ask him for help?

He is a man of great intellect

Shut up

Here he is

This way please

Sis, let me introduce

This is Ng Pak-lam's chief aide-de-camp, Mr Ko

My sis, Cheung Wing-shing

We've met

Please sit

He's from Foshan, hence he has affection for lp Man and Foshan

Miss Cheung, you asked me to come

What can I do for you?

Money or position, my uncle can help you

I want a letter of clemency

For whom?

Commander Ng

Had it not been for him I would still have been a cowherd

He's going farther and farther on the wrong track

If it goes on, he'll meet a tragic end

I want to help him I don't want him dead

Good, you are a loyal man, I understand

You have my word

Good, you are frank

Then let's go to the specifics

He's too sentimental, it doesn't bode well

Sis, don't worry

Ng Pak-lam is doomed this time

Brother lp Man will be fine

You really are this stupid?

You are playing a scholar?

You think your pen is mightier than my gun?

Otherwise, why are you here?

I am here to tease you

I find you funny

I am here to humiliate you

You are interesting

If you apologise to me, I won't kill you

I'll make you chief coach, what about it?

Writing? I won't let you have pens

How can you write?

Take him back in

Take care...

What? No...

Big Ox, come with me

Back off...

Get up, you alright?

I am fine

Why won't you let me kill him?

All go back in...

Martial artistry is not for killing

Your martial artistry will get you into trouble

He tipped Ng Pak-lam off

I meant to avenge you

He's just an ordinary officer controlled by Ng Pak-lam

Ng's bound to intercept the letter

If you killed the guy you'd be in the wrong

He has his family too

He has his parents and kin

Put yourself in his shoes

Hey, you two, go back in, come on

Go for it

Brother Man, I didn't tell on you

I believe you

Thank you

It really is this boat?

Yes

Sir, where are the other passengers?

Everyone's got off

Check the tickets

The boat is about to depart

Please, excuse me

Get on board...

He said he's on this boat

Could it be... he failed to get a ticket

He's taking the next?

We have to wait here then

Sis, look
