THE PRODUCTION OF SHAW BROTHERS (HK) LTD.

Before the 1911 Revolution,

Yuan Chong Huan
from Dongguan was the first

to care about the country's future
and welfare.

During the Ming dynasty,

Yuan Chong Huan, as a governor,

defeated the Qing invaders many times.

Unfortunately, Yuan Chong Huan
eventually fell into a trap

and was cut into pieces in public
by the emperor.

His soldiers were unable to rescue him
because they were trapped in Liaodong.

Finally, he died a wrongful death.

Out of rage,
many of his generals and followers

turned to serve the Qing government.

Those who remained
in the Ming government were promoted.

This is called "scaling."

One wouldn't expect
the loyal Governor Yuan

to end up like this.

Torture like this meant a thousand cuts.

His family is also wanted.

One of his loyal servants saved
his youngest son, Yuan Cheng Zhi,

and sought refuge at Mount Hua.

The chief of the Mount Hua Sect,
Mu Ren Qing,

was the best swordsman around.

This is the son of Governor Yuan.

Governor Yuan has died for his country.

And I have not taken in a pupil for years.

But for his father's sake,

I'll accept him as my pupil.

You can live here.

So his name is Yuan Cheng Zhi.

KUO CHUI

Uncle Mu San, you'll lose if you
don't move your chess pieces quickly.

Cheng Zhi, I'm no match for you now.

I have to teach you one technique
for every game I lose.

For swordsmanship,
I'm no match for your teacher.

For the lighting technique,
you've learned all from me.

Thank you for the guidance.

But I haven't learned
half of what you know.

Enough already.
Let's finish this game of chess.

I should go with your master.

I have nothing much to teach you.

My master has to go too?

There are natural disasters in Shanxi,

and thousands are starved to death.

Your master and I have gathered
a group of friends

to help raise funds for the disaster.

The meeting is coming up.
We ought to move on.

Your master is asking for you.

Cheng Zhi.

Master, Uncle Mu San said
you will be setting off

to provide relief for victims.

That's right.
You've been here for 17 years,

and I haven't been away since.

It's about time for me
to go and meet my friends.

The meeting date is coming up
and cannot be delayed,

but your Hunyuan Kung Fu
is almost completed.

Maybe in ten days‘ time
or a month at most,

you can master it at will.

There is no better place in the world
to practice kung fu than here.

So I'd rather you stay here
to complete your kung fu

-and look for me then.
-Yes.

Come with me.

Look.

This is the founder of the Mount Hua Sect,

Great Master Fang.

Bow to him.

Yes.

TWELVE COMMANDMENTS

Our sect has 12 commandments,

which every one of us in the sect
must follow strictly.

They're compassion, self-enrichment,
chastity, preserving the innocent,

respecting elders,

knowing right from wrong,
associating with righteousness,

and so on.

It's all written here, read it.

Yes.

You're a clever and upright person.

I'm sure that you won't violate the rules.

But sometimes it's difficult

to tell right from wrong.

A good person may be a bad one

or vice versa.

I've only recruited three pupils
in my whole life.

Your eldest senior,
Iron Abacus Huang Zhen,

is smart and active.

Your second senior,
Invincible Fist Gui Xin Shu,

has a good foundation and
a simple-hearted deep manner.

Both of them started training

years before you.

Their pupils are of the same age as you,

but you haven't met them.

Brother Mu, we have to set off.

You needn't worry about
this pupil of yours

who is good at kung fu
as well as in character.

Cheng Zhi, come.

The checkerboard serves as my weapon,

and the chess pieces
serve as my secret gizmo.

When you played chess with me,
you used the white one.

Now I'm giving you the white one
as a souvenir.

Thank you, Uncle.

Anybody here?

This treasure and the manual

are for the chosen.

Enter at your own risk.

Xia Xue Yi, the Golden Snake.

Don't blame anyone
if something bad happens.

Sir, you must be someone extraordinary.

I have run into
this corpse of yours by chance,

and I'm going to bury you.

Please rest in peace.

The one who gets this box
should open this letter.

Whoever gets this box
gets the treasure inside it.

But you must bury me first
before you open it.

I bury you not because of the treasure.

If you would bury me,

please dig deeper into the pit
before burying me.

That way, I can stay deep down
in the ground, free from worms.

All right. I'll do as instructed.

You're really weird.

I wonder what's inside the box.

You're a righteous person because
you followed my instructions to bury me.

So you will be highly rewarded.

When you open the box,
poisonous arrows will shoot out.

The map inside the box is a fake one
and is poisonous.

It's to punish crooks.

The genuine map is in this small iron box.

There's something strange about this cave.

It looks like it was
set on fire not long ago.

That's precisely what Uncle said.

For 18 years,

we have been unable
to locate this villain.

Maybe he's back at his old hideout.

So we should take a look at Mount Hua here
and see what the situation is at the cave.

I think Uncle was right.

So, do we report back to our master
and get more people to help us?

No. The two of us will go in
to grab this villain and get the glory.

Maybe we can get the treasure map too.

But, Uncle...

What's to be afraid of?
That villain, the Golden Snake,

has had the veins and sinews
of his arms and legs cut.

He is as good as a cripple.
We will easily succeed.

Yes, you're right.

I think they're the enemies
of the Golden Snake.

They look like villains to me.
Let's follow them.

XIA XUE YI, THE GOLDEN SNAKE

This is interesting.
The treasure map may be inside.

This clay figure looks like
it's been moved.

Let's dig it up.

Here.

This is ingenious.

There is a secret mechanism
on the side of the iron box.

Use both hands to grab it,
and the box will open.

Let's follow the instructions.

Wei, you're dumb.

Don't blame me for your death.

That villain, the Golden Snake,

is treacherous.

THE GOLDEN SNAKE MANUAL

His kung fu manual
and the treasure map are here.

THE GOLDEN SNAKE MANUAL

The Golden Snake Manual?

Poison! There's poison!

They deserve their death.

They look villainous.

But this elderly is quite cunning
and manipulative.

The kung fu in the manual
seems incomplete.

This is right.

But why has he left it all so mysterious

and written inside the fold?

This is the treasure map they mentioned.

He wanted people to explore
the mystery of the manual

before finding the treasure map.

Whoever gets this treasure,
go to Shiliang Sect at Zhejiang.

Find a lady named Wen Yi
and give her 100,000 taels of gold.

This sounds exaggerated.

TO MASTER

I've written a letter to Master

and have explained everything in it.

If Master returns or sends someone here,

please give this letter to him.

I've practiced the Golden Snake Kung Fu.

I don't want the treasure,
but I'll follow his instructions

and look for Wen Yi from Shiliang Sect.

I'll also hand over
the treasure map to her.

Whether I should use
this Golden Snake Sword and Awl,

I've already asked Master in the letter.
If he allows me,

please deliver them to Shiliang Sect.

GUANGTAI RESTAURANT

GUANGTAI RESTAURANT

Sir, please come in.

Please.

Sir, it's full.

-Do you mind sharing a table?
-What are you doing?

WEN HSUEH-ERH

Sir, if you don't mind,

please join me at this table.

Thank you.

Please sit.

From your accent, you don't seem
to be from Zhejiang.

I'm from Guangdong
and now live in Mount Hua.

What are you doing here in Zhejiang?

To visit a friend.

-Thank you. Please come again.
-Sure.

-Up there!
-He's up there!

-Up there!
-He's up there!

Cheers.

Wen, come down now!

Don't you follow the rules?

What if I don't?

We, Longyou Sect,

have been tracking down that
2000 tales of gold for quite a while.

You jumped in and took them.

-You don't follow the rules.
-Are you saying all the gold is yours?

Now that you've got them,
you should share them.

-You're still at an advantage.
-Don't even think about it.

Come.

Attack!

Lungyou Sect and Shiliang Sect
have never had any conflict.

For the sake of the Wen family, you...

Cut the crap.

If you're any good,
give it all you've got.

‘Let's go!
‘Quick!

Be careful!

Thank you.

-BOSS!
-BOSS!

-BOSS!
-BOSS!

They failed to rob you.
You shouldn't take their lives.

Don't think that you can preach to me,
though you've saved me.

But I have to thank you
for saving me just now.

Let's drink again.

All right.

Your kung fu is really good.

May I know what's your name
and which sect you are from?

My surname is Yuan.
I saw both of them in danger.

That's why I pulled them up.

I don't mean to show off in front of you.

So he is getting more outrageous

because he has good help.

Is he your friend?

I respect you as a senior.

You must be careful of what you say.

We have met by chance,
and our acquaintance is not deep.

Let's be calm and talk this out.

There's no need to use violence.

If you're afraid, you better leave.

So you've no connection
whatsoever with him.

That's good.

When we've settled this matter,
we can become friends.

You're quite devious
despite your young age.

Master Sha was no match for you.

You could just drive him away.

Why did you have to kill him?

There's only one of me and so many of you.

Shouldn't I be cruel?

You're bullying me.

You could get the gold if you were good.

But instead,
you came to rob me after I got them.

Aren't you ashamed?

Ridiculous!

You're getting more and more rude.

I wonder if your grandfather

has taught you such bad manners.

I've long known about your good skills.

You needn't blandish that before me.
Go and show off to my grandfather.

Don't use him to threaten me.

If he is any good,
he won't allow his daughter to be defiled

nor have a bastard like you.

It's no use crying.

Come on, give us the gold.

I don't want them either.
I'll give them to Master Sha's wife.

No way!

Birds of the same feather flock together.

Like father like son.

What?

If I don't leave a mark on your face,

I'm afraid that you'll forget.

Impressive!

For Mr. Yuan's sake,

I'll spare his life today. Let's go.

You're afraid when you see a good fighter.

You're a bunch of bullies. Shameless!

Mr. Yuan. Although you're young,

you value friendship.

Let's fight

so others don't label me as a coward.

Please be gentle.

Sure.

Please.

Please.

-Please.
-Please.

I'm no match for you.

Thank you.

Mr. Yuan, farewell.

Let's go.

He purposely let you win.

It's good you know this.

GUANGTAI RESTAURANT

Here are 2000 taels of gold.
I'll give you half of them.

I don't want them.
I didn't help you because of the gold.

What? Have I hurt you?

No.

Don't go yet. Take the gold.

Sir.

Thank you, Sir.

SHIDE HALL

I'm looking for a young man named Wen.
He's about 17 or 18.

We have a number of young men here.
I don't know who you are looking for.

-Come out!
-Come out now!

You've mortally wounded others.

Come and pay for it!

-Come out now!
-Come out!

What happened here?

You must be looking for this fella too.
He's cruel and overbearing.

Yesterday, he came to collect the rent.

Old Qing asked for
a few more days of delay.

But he pushed Old Qing against the wall.
Old Qing is now badly hurt.

Old Qing's son and nephew fought with him

and were all badly injured.

The three of them won't live long.

Such a man is really devious.

-Sir, we want justice.
-Yes!

Exactly!

CHIANG SHENG

-Come out!
-Come out now!

Whoever is acting so unruly here
must be tired of living.

-Are you all right?
-Were you hurt anywhere?

Are you being asked by these guys
to fight against us?

Sorry. I'm just afraid that
someone might get hurt.

Then, everyone will be in trouble.
So I helped out.

You have such good skills.

Why descend to their level?

This is our young master.

This young man is looking for someone.

May I know what's your name
and who you are looking for?

My surname is Yuan.

I'm looking for a friend surnamed Wen.

Is he staying here?

My surname is also Wen.

Are you looking for...

He's younger than you are.

He's about 17 and is from another place.

Oh! He's my younger brother, Wen Qing.
And my name is Wen Zheng.

Please come in and have some tea.

Please ask your brother to come.

I've something to give to him.

Ask Young Master Qing to come,

-and tell him Mr. Yuan wants to see him.
-Yes.

Please wait, he'll be here soon.

It's our pleasure to have you here.

Please sit.

You forgot this package,
so I'm here to give it back.

You despise me, don't you?

I don't mean that at all.
Thank you for your kindness.

Farewell.

You can't leave!

I've something important to ask you.

Please stay here today.

I have to take care of some business.

We will meet again some other time.

We shouldn't delay him then.

All right! If you really have to go,
take this package too.

You won't stay at our house no matter what

because you despise me.

I'll stay then if it's your wish.

That's great!

Brother Zheng,
ask them to prepare the meal.

Qing Qil19-

Oh! Brother Qing, let's drink again.

I'm treating Brother Yuan to a meal.
Why are you here?

I've had enough. It's been a tiring day,
and I would like to take a rest.

Your presence here is indeed an honor.

I'd like to talk with you all night.

But since you're tired,
let's talk tomorrow.

Brother Yuan, you can
sleep in my room tonight.

Your room is not fit for guests.

-He should sleep in my room.
-What?

What do you mean by "what?"
What's wrong if I sleep with Mom?

He's getting impolite.

I'm used to living in the mountains.

Don't worry about me.

All right then.

-Brother Yuan, please come with me.
-Okay.

Brother Yuan, this is my bedroom.
Make yourself at home.

It's you!

It is a lovely night with a bright moon.

Brother Yuan,
you shouldn't let it go to waste.

Cheers.

Let me play you a song.

What is this? It sounds good.

You're really smart.

I never play for anyone.

They only know fighting

and don't appreciate this.

What's the matter?

Honestly, I really love it.

You'll be gone tomorrow.

What is it for?

I know I have a bad temper.

I know you despise and hate me,

which is why you won't come again,

-and I won't see you anymore.
-I know nothing about

the ways of the world.

You were right in saying I despise you,

but things are different now.

Is that so?

You must have something on your mind.

That's why you're acting strangely.

Come on, tell me your story.

You'd despise me even more

if I told you.

No, I won't.

All right then. I'll tell you.

My mom was raped when she was a girl

and gave birth to me.

I'm an illegitimate child with no father.

This is neither your nor your mom's fault.

The culprit's to blame.

But he is my father.

People insult me
and my mother behind our backs.

Those people are shameful.

Don't worry. You're my friend,
and I'll come to visit you.

Would you like me to visit you?

-You've promised.
-I promise.

It's midnight.

Why are you sneaking around here?

-What are you doing here?
-Ask that to yourself.

We are enjoying the moon.

Who allowed you to come here?

Apart from Mother, no one is allowed here.

-You don't listen to Grandfather.
-Why is he here, then?

I invited him. It's none of your business.

Enough already. We've had our fun.

Let's all go and rest.

I'm not going, sit down!

I grew these flowers.
So you're not allowed to see them.

I've already seen them.

Can you tear out my eyes?

I want to smell them too.

You bully me!

I'll pluck the flowers
so that no one can see them!

You're happy now, right?

I meant well, and you treat me like this.

Is this the right thing to do?

You've only known him for a few days.

-You--
-I don't need you to be good to me.

You can ask Grandfather to kick us out.

I'm here with Brother Yuan.
You can go and tell Grandfather now.

How can you treat your brother like this?

He's not my real brother.

My mother's surname is Wen,
and this is my grandfather's home.

He's just my cousin.

If I had a father and my own home,

I wouldn't suffer all this.

I think he is good to you,

and yet you are mean to him.

If I'm not mean to him,
he'll step out of line.

You're so childish.

Well, how old are you?

I'm 18 and must be younger than you.

I don't have a brother.
Let's be sworn brothers, shall we?

Brother Wen, are you mad at me?

You despise me.
Why do you call me a brother?

When had I despised you?

Come, let's swear as brothers here.

Brother.

You're my younger brother, then.

It's late, let's go to sleep.

Don't disturb your mother.

Let's share our bed here.

You...

See you tomorrow.

Someone's asking for gold outside.

Let's take a look.

-It's from Longyou Sect, right?
-Let's go and see.

SHIDE HALL

Don't be so fierce. My brother is here.

Don't bother with this innocent kid.

Let's talk to the people in charge.

Brother Qing, come quickly.
These people are mean and want gold.

What gold?

It's him!

He was snooping in my room.

And the next day, the gold was gone.

-If you didn't steal it, who did?
-Why didn't you catch me then?

I was sleeping and didn't see you.

But when I woke up...

You didn't catch me red-handed.

You didn't even see me.

You only have yourself to blame.

How can you blame me?

But as I searched, there's a rumor that

followers of the Shiliang and Lungyou
Sects are both fighting for some gold

and ultimately, the followers
of the Shiliang Sect took it.

How can you accuse me of stealing

-without any proof?
-Then we'll search the place.

If we find the loot, you'll be in trouble.

My family is rich.

We have lots of gold,
not to mention just 2000 taels.

How can you tell it's all yours?

You get your gold
either by stealing or by robbing.

How can you insult us
from the Shiliang Sect?

Insulting you? Do you think
you have a good reputation?

I've never seen such a hostile woman.

Then, I will let you taste
the consequences of a woman's anger!

Brother Qing, step back

and let me make this clear.

-Are you from the Mount Hua Sect?
-So what?

Mount Hua Sect is a righteous sect.

It's different from you thieves
from Shiliang Sect.

I'm not from the Shiliang Sect.
Mount Hua Sect is indeed a righteous sect.

Well, who is your master?

My master is called Gui Xin Shu,

nicknamed the Invincible Fist.

Good.

What's the third commandment
of Mount Hua Sect?

Who are you to query me?

I'm from Mount Hua Sect too.

This kid is bluffing.

The three of us are also from
Mount Hua Sect.

But we didn't know you.

Senior Chui, is he the new pupil
of Uncle Huang?

My master hasn't recruited
any pupils for a long time.

Uncle Huang has good judgment.

How could he recruit you as his pupil?

Right, the judgment of Senior Huang
is naturally good.

But you still haven't answered me.

What's the third commandment
of Mount Hua Sect?

-Who are you calling Senior Huang?
-My master's name is Mu Ren Qing,

and is known as the Magnificent Swordsman.

So Huang Zhen is my eldest senior.

Then you are our uncle.

WANG LI

I dare not put it this way.

Are we not good enough?

-This lady still hasn't answered me.
-So you want to lecture us?

If your master is here,
he will surely lecture you.

You're talking nonsense.

Did your master ever tell you
what the Twelve Commandments are?

All right, I'll answer your question.

The third commandment concerns
the killing of the innocent.

Then you know. Let me ask you,

what wrong has that kid done?

Even if it is the fault of Shiliang Sect,
he's only 16 or 17 years old.

What has it to do with him?

With a strike, that lady has cut his arm.

Isn't this violating the rule?

LU FENG

Their uncle is here.

Let's wait and hear what they have to say.

Oh, you want to teach us a lesson.

But don't forget that we haven't
acknowledged you as our uncle yet.

So, what does it take for you
to acknowledge me?

You have to show us how good you are,
and we'll see whether you're worth it.

They'll have a fight.

It'd be good to witness
the skill of this kid.

Brother Yuan, come over here.

This is my grandfather.

This is my eldest uncle, Wen Nan Yang.

This is my fourth uncle, Bei Yang,
and my fifth brother, Wen Fang.

Nice to meet you. I'm Yuan Cheng Zhi.

Mr. Yuan, please don't stand on ceremony.

Qing said that your kung fu
is exceptional,

and it's true.

All right! Let me try
your Mount Hua Sect's kung fu.

This technique is worshipping
the Guan Yin, right?

You've used our sect's technique.

Please allow me to try it.

Are you aware she has transgressed
the sixth commandment too?

The sixth commandment
is to not be disrespectful to elders.

But I don't know you.

How can I make you believe I'm your uncle?

I want to spar with you.

If you are better than I am...

How about this?
If you can take five attacks from me,

then regard me as an impostor.

It's agreed. I'll count.

This is my first strike, be ready.

Sure!

Here it comes.

Why didn't you believe me?

Why would I trick you?

You can't block me with a single palm.

Use both hands.

For the other three strikes,
they'll be continuous.

They are Thunder Hand, Throwing a Stone,

and King Kong Wags Its Tail.
How do you tackle them?

I will use Closed Hand,
Cloud Behind Mountain,

and Break a Willow Branch.

You got the first two right,
but not the last one.

This technique requires defense
and simultaneous attack.

But when you defend, the power is reduced.

If the opponent is weak,
then the effect is good.

But you can't tackle my last strike.

Then, I'll use the
Thundering Earth technique.

Right, let's go.

Thundering Earth.

It's good you didn't meet me head-on.

Senior Huang has taught his pupils well.

My fifth move is the start
of Broken Jade Fist.

You'd think the first move
is merely ceremonious

and ineffective against an opponent.

Our great master developed every move

for a focused attack.

Watch!

Uncle, I'm truly sorry for being impolite.

Please accept my respect.

Please arise.

We're almost the same age.
No formalities, please.

Yes.

Senior Mei, try his swordsmanship.

All right.

-I want to test your swordsmanship.
-Sure.

Brother, get me ten swords.

Get ten swords here.

Yes.

Qing, your friend's kung fu
is really good.

I'll use this broken sword, come on.

You look down on me.
Don't blame me for your death.

I've prepared ten swords for you.

Get another one.

Why such a treacherous move?

There's no need to fight anymore.

You claim to be a disciple
of the Mount Hua Sect.

But you don't even know such a technique.

And said it was a treacherous move.

This is our sect's swordsmanship.
Did you learn it before?

This is called
The Worm Attached on the Bone.

Yes, despite its name,

it's very effective.

Let's have a proper sword duel.
Your skills are too mixed.

These are all typical of our sect's style.

How could you say that? On guard!

Do you want to try again?

Are you sure you want to continue?

Do you acknowledge defeat?

Uncle Yuan, we're so sorry for being rude.

I beg you to spare him.

-Do you admit you're wrong?
-Yes, I do.

You should know
you've broken two of our rules.

The sixth commandment is
we should respect seniors.

The third commandment is
we shouldn't kill the innocent.

Junior Sun is indeed wrong.

She'll apologize to that gentleman later.

An apology is not good enough.

This is our sect's matter.

Our uncle shall deal with it.

But it's all because you robbed the gold.

So what about that?

Right, what's all this about the gold?

I was following orders

to deliver the gold to help the victims.

But the gold was robbed by him.

And hence, I went after him.

I also found out that
he's from the Shiliang Sect.

Then, I met Senior Mei and Junior Sun.

So we came together to
claim back the gold.

Brother Qing, she's indeed rash.

But for my sake, please spare her.

After that kid's wound is healed,

I'll teach him one-armed sword techniques
to compensate for it, okay?

As for the gold, since it is for
my master to help the victims,

we should return it to him.

Returning the gold is a small matter.

But she must lose an arm as well.

I'd like to see you try.

Do you think I don't dare?

Whose side are you on anyway?

You are my sworn brother,
and she is my uncle's pupil.

She's pretty, so you keep siding with her.

You defend her even though she's wrong.

A few thousand taels of gold
isn't a big deal.

I'll give all of it to you if you want.

But they have to give up an arm
in exchange.

We're all angry,
and we can't clear up the matter.

Maybe you can come around tomorrow,
and I'll return the gold.

All right.

Let's go.

When you come tomorrow,
don't forget to give me this girl's arm.

The gold is meant
for the victims of disasters.

We ought to return it to them.

Miss Sun has made a mistake,

but she is my senior's pupil.

If we punish her,
I'll have to answer to my senior.

Anyway, you're still on her side.

Qing, enough already.

For Mr. Yuan's sake,

the gold has to be returned.

There's one thing that must be
clarified, though.

You are saying...

You've indeed mastered the kung fu of
Mount Hua Sect very well.

But the technique you used to
separate Qing and Miss Sun

doesn't look like
it's from Mount Hua Sect.

Well, those are some moves
I learned elsewhere.

Keen observation, I must say.

It comes with age and experience.

Nan Yang.

Why don't you spar with Mr. Yuan?
But remember not to be too harsh.

Yes.

-Please give me some guidance.
-You're too kind.

Uncle, can you recognize his kung fu now?

But I'm not so sure.
Let's try his weaponry skills.

Nan Yang, quit.

Thank you.

Uncle, he...

Let's talk about it later.

Mr. Yuan, your punches and kicks are good.

Zheng.

Get some guidance in terms of
weaponry skills from Mr. Yuan.

There's a hint.

Fang.

-Go and help Zheng.
-Yes.

INTRODUCING: CHU KE

Grandfather!

Fang, SEQP-

That's enough.

Mr. Yuan, your kung fu is incredible.

It's my turn to try your skills now.

Grandfather, we're sworn brothers.

Don't hurt him.

Let's see.

Mr. Yuan, come on.

I dare not.

What happened?

Who is this kid?

Mother.

Mr. Yuan, please make your move.

Could you please lend me
this wooden sword?

I dare not use real weapons,

so I'm using this wooden sword.

Quite thoughtful of you!

The skilled artists can afford
to take risks.

All right! Come on!

So it's the bandit, Golden Snake,
who sent you here.

Where is the bandit? Speak up!

Please be calm, Sir.

I sure can make it out.

Apart from Mount Hua Sect's kung fu,

you also know Golden Snake's techniques.

That's why I want them to spar with you.

Don't think I'm too old to observe this.

How are you related to Xia Xue Yi,
the Golden Snake?

Why did he send you here?

I have never seen him.

-How could he have sent me?
-Really?

Why should I lie to you?

I met Brother Qing by chance.

He appreciated my skills,
so we became sworn brothers.

What has this to do with the Golden Snake?

If you don't tell us
where the Golden Snake is,

you'll not leave here today.

I'm not related to him in any way.

And I haven't even seen him.

Yet I know where he is.

But I don't think anyone here
dares to go and see him.

Says who?

-We've been looking for him for decades.
-Quick, tell us where he is!

You're in good health,

so you've waited a few years
before seeing him.

He's dead already.

-Mother!
-What a good news!

-Mother.
-Wake up!

Mother.

Mother.

Mother.

Mother.

Qing Qing, help your mother inside.

Don't let others laugh at her.

What's to be ashamed of?
When she knew Father was dead,

naturally, her heart was broken.

Stop talking nonsense! Who is your father?

By tomorrow, I want
all the gold kept here.

Let Mr. Yuan and those from
Mount Hua Sect get it.

Mother.

Ask Mr. Yuan to go
to the backyard tonight.

I have something I want to ask him.

Go quickly!

Mother.

I have to go now.

Wait.

I have something to ask you.

Where did the Golden Snake die?

-Who saw him die?
-I didn't see that.

Well, in any case,
we must get the gold back.

I'll come again tomorrow.

Brother Qing.

Brother Yuan.

You...

I'm, in fact, a girl.

I've kept this from you.
Please don't take it to your heart.

I've been so dumb.

I've never come across a girl
in the mountains.

-I should have discovered this earlier.
-My name is Wen Qing Qing.

I left one "Qing" out of my name.

Well, it should be Xia Qing Qing, in fact.

My mother has something to ask you.
Please come with me.

-Greetings, Madam.
-You're too kind.

Please sit.

Is he really dead?

Did he die a painful death?

I don't know, actually.

I found his skeleton by chance
and buried him.

He can be said to be my master.

I learned a lot from him.

I've waited 18 years

for him to take us away from here.

Who would know he'd die?

May I ask what is your maiden name?
Is it Yi?

Yes, how did you know?

Did he write it in his will?

Did you bring it?

Who's there?

Uncle, we're chatting here.

How could you eavesdrop?

-You don't behave like a senior.
-Shameless thing.

You have an affair with a man,

and now you teach your daughter
to do the same.

Uncle, mind what you say.

You shameless thing!

I'm in a position to rule over you.

And it's your grandfather who
asked me here. What can you do to me?

You...

It looks like no one here

regards us as family.

Brother, he saved your life.

I thought you would be grateful to him.

Who'd have known people of the Wen family
to be so ungrateful?

He indeed saved my life,

but why did he save me?

If you still remember, speak.

Of course, I will.

Twenty years ago, back in Yangzhou,

I was caught by the law.

What offense did you commit?

I'm a gentleman.
I'm not afraid to admit it.

I was going to rape a girl

and was caught.

I was sentenced to death.

Fourth Uncle just happened to be
in Yangzhou at that time.

-He was supposed to come and save me.
-But he didn't.

Instead, that villain came.

He saved me from the prison.

We arrived at a deserted temple
on the outskirts.

LUNG TIEN-SHENG

What's your name, please?

You need not ask.

Anyway, you won't thank me for this later.

This is my fourth uncle's weapon.

True, I saved you because of
your fourth uncle.

He's a good friend of mine.

Take this box back.

It must be opened by your father or uncle.

If you don't do as told
and lose the treasure inside

or commit crimes again,

this is what will happen to you.

This is your travel expense.

I'll come to your home in a month's time.

SHIDE HALL

KUAN FENG

What's Fourth Brother been doing?

I wonder what's inside this box.

Open it.

TO THE WEN'S BROTHERS OF SHILIANG SECT

-Brother!
-Fourth Uncle!

Isn't he malicious?

Why did he do that?

Whatever your spouse did,
you'd think they were good.

Well, he's my husband.

In my heart, he's my husband.

Qing Qil19-

I was young at that time.

And my family is devious.

I don't like them.

That day, I heard the noise of squabble
in the living room.

So I went out.

I heard your grandfather
reading out that letter.

The Wen's brothers of the Shiliang Sect.

Herewith is the corpse of
your fourth brother, Ming Wu.

Please accept it.

Years ago, after he raped
and killed my elder sister,

he also killed my parents
and my two elder brothers.

I escaped alone

and swore vengeance.

Blood must atone for blood.

I must kill fifty members of your family

and ravish ten of your
female family members

to vent out my deep hate.

From Xia Xue Yi, the Golden Snake.

Good, if he would only come.

Tell everyone,

especially the women,

not to step out of their rooms.

We'll lead a team
of kung fu fighters to patrol.

We'll never give him
another chance to kill here.

How many has he killed?

Twenty-one.

Twenty-three.

While escaping, the villain said that

the two women who had
been kidnapped last time

had been sold to a whorehouse in Yangzhou.

Send some men to Yangzhou

and search all the brothels.

Yes.

Why don't you do as you were told?

I'm so bored.

What's wrong with playing around
in our own courtyard?

The Golden Snake is here! Come on!

Thirty-eight.

It would be better if I were killed.

But he saved me
at the risk of his own life.

Drink it.

You have to eat something.

I don't want to.

I thought you were a mute.

I'm not. I just don't want
to talk to bad guys.

Tomorrow is the death anniversary of

my parents, brothers, and sister.

I must kill one of
your family members to avenge them.

Nothing will keep me away!

The next day, he went on
another killing spree.

But he was followed by Father and his men.

Father along with Eldest Uncle,
Second Uncle,

Fourth Uncle's son, Bei Yang,

and Fifth Uncle's sons,
Xi Yang and Zhong Yang.

They have all come.

-Father.
-Are you all right?

I'm fine, don't worry.

Back down.

Stop, he's my father.

Go now! I won't kill you.

Be careful.

Leave before I change my mind.

Why are you crying?

You're so badly injured.

Were you crying for me?

Since your fourth uncle killed
my whole family,

and until I killed
one of your cousins just now,

I've killed a total of 40 people.

I was supposed to kill ten more.

But for your sake,

I'll stop killing.

And I won't...

And I won't harm your family's womenfolk.

When I recover, I'll bring you home.

Don't worry.

I won't die.

If I die,

there'll be no one to bring you
down this high mountain.

You've recovered.

But how come you're not happy?

I've promised to take you home
after I've recovered.

But I can't bear to leave you.

Then I'll stay.

Really?

I have a treasure map.

When Chenzhu usurped the throne,
Emperor Jianwen escaped with some treasure

and buried it all
in a secret place in Nanjing.

Emperor Chenzhu couldn't find them,
but I accidentally came across them.

I never got to find them
because I had to seek vengeance.

Now, I don't have to do this anymore.

Tomorrow, I'll bring you home

and go to find the treasure.

After that, I'll come look for you.

He didn't want to leave me.

In fact,

I didn't want to leave him either.

But

I couldn't stay with him just like that.

When I went home,

everyone looked down on me.

They couldn't protect me.

When I came back unharmed,

they insulted me instead.

I didn't bother with them

-and didn't talk to them either.
-Shameless.

I've waited for him for three months.

One night, someone knocked at the window.

I knew it was him.

I opened the window and let him in.

We really loved each other,

so we had sex that night.

Then I gave birth to his child,
which is you.

Open the door, I know someone's inside.

Don't worry, I can fight out.

I know about your affairs.

I'm grateful that
you didn't kill me last time.

If we become family,
we should forget about the past.

Don't worry. I've promised her
not to seek vengeance.

Don't think of eloping with her.

She is my only child.

She has to be married properly.

She cannot elope with you.

Otherwise, she'll be looked down upon
by other people.

-All right.
-Stay here then.

We will prepare for the wedding.

I've never thought that

my own parents would...

Yi, take this lotus seed soup
to your husband.

Mother.

Yi, you're so devious.

Why did you poison me?

Yi.

You're so shameless to tell other people
about your own affairs.

In the last decades,

I've never talked to anyone
from the Wen family.

I shouldn't have stayed here
in the first place.

But since I was with child,

where else could I go?

I just hope that he's not dead

and will come back for us.

If I leave,

where else can he find me?

Now that he's dead,

what do I need to be afraid of?

I'm not afraid of them, are you?

No.

Mother, you're right.

-You did nothing wrong.
-All right.

I'll continue, then.

They are the ones
who stood here at that time.

Oh, it's a bit different.

At that time, Eldest Uncle
and Second Uncle were still alive.

Wen Zheng and Wen Fang weren't born yet.

Yi, come here.

-I'll die with you.
-So you don't know it's poisoned?

Who poisoned you?

Whoever used poison is no hero.

Yi, come out.

I'm not coming out! Kill me as well!

You think you have great ability.

Don't hide behind a woman, come out.

-Come with us and have a good fight.
-All right.

The lotus seed soup contained no poison

but contained some secret prescription
of the Wen family.

One would become weak after drinking it.

They'll pass out and wake up
after one whole day.

Such poisonous drugs
from the Shiliang Sect!

Kill me.

Torturing people is no heroism.

I've heard that you've found a treasure.

Where's the treasure map?

The treasure is nothing.
Take it all if you want.

-Release me, and I'll give the map to you.
-All right.

They cut off the veins
and sinews of his arms

and forced him to give them
the treasure map.

He's not been seen ever since.

He could've escaped,

and they wouldn't get the treasure map.

How dare you side with the outsider!
You'd better be careful.

Why should I be careful?

I'm just telling the truth.

Someone ought to know of
the Golden Snake's misdeeds.

He's dead.

What am I to be afraid of?

Very well!

Little brat.

Now you've known
the Five-Element Array of our Wen family.

If you have the guts, come and try it.

Mr. Yuan, you'd better leave.
Don't fight with them.

Not knowing if the Golden Snake
was dead or alive,

they came back and
practiced the Five-Element Array hard.

Although Eldest Uncle
and Second Uncle were dead,

Nan Yang and Bai Yang's kung fu
has progressed a lot.

The grandson of Second Uncle, Wen Zheng,

and Fifth Uncle's grandson,
Wen Fang, aren't bad either.

They've practiced the Bagua Array too.

You've said enough.

Do you dare to come with us?

Wen's Five-Element Array is unbeatable.

I'd like very much to try and see.

Mr. Yuan, don't go.

Take Qing Qing away
and go as far away as you can.

As far away as you can?

Dream on!

-Little brat, come with us.
-All right.

Our Five-Element Array

has never been beaten.

You better rest for a while

and think of a good way to fight.

We aren't forcing you.

But don't blame us for bullying you.

Thank you. I do need to think.

Please have a cup of sweet tea.

That's the tea given to
Golden Snake before.

Like mother, like daughter.

My ancestors must have done many
bad things to have traitors in the family.

Our ancestors have been charitable.

They have repaired roads
and aided the poor.

They did all the good things.
They wouldn't steal, kill, or plunder.

Nan Yang, don't mind her.
Focus on this guy.

All right. There's nothing to think of.

If you win, we'll return the gold
to you guys from Mount Hua Sect.

You take it and leave.

If you can't win,

then just shut up.

Bring the gold here.

If I knew, I could have given them
the gold yesterday.

Sir, please give me some guidance.

Master, look! The gold is here.

Give us back the gold.

Wait.

Eldest Senior! I, Yuan Cheng Zhi,
am pleased to meet you.

Please arise.

I've heard that Master
has got a young pupil.

I didn't actually expect to meet you here.

-Don't be rude! Come and bow to Uncle.
-Uncle.

You're too kind.

-Where are Mei and Sun?
-They were taught a lesson

and went away.

I know that I'm not good enough,

that's why I've invited my master
to come along.

You must be Huang Zhen,
the Iron Abacus from Mount Hua Sect.

Nice to meet you. You must be Master Wen.

My pupil is inexperienced

and has lost the gold for the victims.

Master Wen, for the sake of the victims,

please return the gold.

I'll be so thankful for that.

We've already agreed with your junior.

Our Shiliang Sect is famous
for the Five-Element Array.

If he can defeat us,
we'll give you back the gold.

My junior is almost the same age
as your grandchildren.

Why do you have to make it
difficult for him?

If you really don't like it,

you alone

can teach him a lesson.

Mount Hua Sect has great fame.

Are you afraid of our Five-Element Array?

Let me try, then.

Senior, you're our chief.

Please let me try.

You take over if I fail.

Junior, I believe that

you've learned a lot from our teacher.

But you're not experienced enough.

Let me deal with it
while you watch the Array for me.

Wait till you've figured it out,

then you can try.

I'll take this challenge.

Are you going to fight with me?

As long as you people from
Mount Hua Sect can win,

we will return you all the gold.

In case you lose,

he'll have to stay behind.

All right, let's begin.

Senior, Earth counteracts Wood.

EARTH

WOOD

QIAN

KUN

Fire counteracts Gold.

FIRE

GOLD

ZHENG, LI

Move to the "Qian" position.

QIAN

You can escape from
our Five-Element Array.

Your kung fu can be
considered as incredible.

But it doesn't mean you win this bout.

The gold can be returned,
but you must do one thing.

Give me a price,
it doesn't matter if it's a big one.

-We can negotiate.
-No negotiation on this matter.

Leave this brat behind.

My junior eats a lot.

It can be a good thing if you retain him.

But maybe after a year or so,
you'll be broke.

Your junior taught you
the way out of this Array.

I reckon he must have
learned the know-how.

How about letting him try it?

I haven't seen
the Five-Element Array in my life.

I believe so.

I'm young and naive.

I would be so glad to stay behind.

I can take this chance to learn
about the Five-Element Array from you.

Show your weapon.

I don't dare to be impolite
in front of you.

I'll use this hairpin

to seek guidance from you.

If you intend to teach me,

why hold back?
So I don't learn the whole thing?

There is no such thing as the whole thing.

Apart from the Five-Element Array,
there is the Bagua Array.

Let me see them both.

You only have yourself
to blame if you die.

Come on!

Zheng, don't lose your ground.

Be careful of his tricks.

Be careful!

Attack!

Bravo!

You rotten scumbag!

Mother!

Mother!

Why have you killed my mother?

Third Uncle.

She deserves to die.

Brother Yuan.

Qing.

Don't feel sad.

I'm going to meet your father.

Mr. Yuan.

There is one thing

I couldn't say last night.

Is there...

Is there any will from him?

Did he mention me?

Please take a look.

Whoever gets this treasure,
go to Shiliang Sect at Zhejiang.

Find a lady named Wen Yi.

He still remembers me.

I'm going to see him now.

Mr. Yuan.

I only have one family member.

It's my daughter, Qing Qing.

You...

You...

Madam!

Mother!

-Mother!
-So, Master allowed me to use it.

This is the Golden Snake Sword.

You killed my parents.

I will wipe out your whole family!

Qing Qing, you needn't do this.

Yes, this is the Golden Snake Sword.

He also left the martial arts manual.

I'll use his legacy to destroy
the Five-Element Array

and avenge his death.

Senior.

Use the Bagua Array.

Good job!

There's no Five-Element Array anymore.

Qing Qil19-

All his family is dead.

He is the only one left.

He's also crippled.
This should be punishment enough.

And he's your grandfather, after all.

Master, we can take the gold now.
