Grand Tutor

These four?

Grand Tutor, they lost the royal standard They are going to be executed

Reverends, please wait here

You are just stupid

How could you lose my royal standard?

Your Highness, what is it?

These useless fools lost my royal standard

Your Highness, please don't be angry l have got it back

Grand Tutor you are just marvelous

l seem to have one arm less when you are not round

Your Highness, you are too kind

Your Highness, l have a request

Just say it

Could you spare them their lives?

No, they lost the royal standard They should be executed

Your Highness, the royal standard was stolen by Chow Pak-tung

They didn't know about it...

Even if they had known it beforehand

They still could not have stopped him

That Old Mischief again

Grand Tutor, a country of such grandeur

How can l not conquer it?

That's why Your Highness spent so many years preparing for this invasion

But one mistake and we are stuck

Your Highness, you have everything thought up

You ordered me to take the leadership of the martial world

But l failed you

Grand Tutor, you have done your best

There are just too many talents in the mainland

Like that Chow Pak-tung, he is so elusive

Old Mischief doesn't have a brain

He can be dealt with

l am not worried about him

l am worried about Kwok Ching in Xiangyang

lt is not so easy to take Xiangyang and our advance is stalled

Your Highness, have you heard of the saying

Use the barbarians to contain the barbarians

lt is the Han people's policy of turning one foreign tribe on another

We can borrow it

And use established martial arts force to contain other martial arts talents

You mean Quanzhen School?

Yes, Quanzhen School is powerful with a huge following

lf the school comes to our side

The martial world will split

But Kwok Ching has a special relationship with that school

He is practically a disciple

Quanzhen Seven are all patriotic

l don't think we can control them

Now we have a good chance

l have the two leading second generation disciples with me

They seem to need my help

And they can be our pawns?

Your Highness, Chiu Chi-king is already our pawn

Good, we use Quanzhen School to take on the martial world

All right, it is all my fault

Now l have known about it You want to kill me to silence me?

Where are you going?

l am going to see her l have to explain to her

You want to get killed?

lt is better than what l am

When l see her l just think l deserve to die

But if you are dead You can't see her again

Say that again and l will kill you

Amitabha, Taoism and Buddhism are two different schools

But we both pursue eternal life

Who in flesh and blood doesn't make mistakes?

Abbot...

So Reverend Wan, you are agonized by the mistake you committed

l don't know what mistake you have committed and l don't want to know

Abbot, thank you for your concern

Brother-in-arms Wan, we are guests here

l don't want to stay either

Reverend Wan, l wonder if we have the honour

l come here on His Highness' behalf

He invites you two to stay for a few days

Our pleasure, Abbot

l have a story in my mind

l wonder if you care to hear the story of Buddha making up for his mistake

Actually our founder was a precedent

Grand Master Chungyeung made a mistake too

He had wronged Lam Chiu-yang

He was different, it happened before he became a Taoist monk

And he was a frank and open man

Unlike me, l am a shameless scum

Please excuse me

Let me see you out

Why don't you let Dragon Girl finish him off

lf he dies, my chance of becoming abbot will be even more remote

Because you have a bad name Or you have too many enemies?

No, because my uncles-in-arms are not impartial

What if l finish Dragon Girl off?

Then l can use this secret to control Wan Chi-ping

But Quanzhen School is not that friendly to Mongolia

Because the old men are too stubborn only

But if you are in power...

Zhongnan Mountain is in Mongolian jurisdiction

Chungyeung Monastery of course has to abide by Mongolian rule

All right, l will kill Dragon Girl for you

How stupid, why not steal the royal standard tonight?

Over there

Grand Uncle-in-arms

What about a full moon?

Amitabha

Baldy, isn't it cool?

Excuse me, let us settle it some other day

l really am sorry, lass lt didn't occur to me you are here

Hey, can you teach me how to sleep on a rope without falling down?

l saved you, you should teach me for return, hey...

We were this close And that old rascal ruined it again

Don't worry, he won't stick around her forever

But Abbot, he means to learn the rope sleeping trick from her

He won't go if she doesn't teach him

Wait till he comes to steal the royal standard tomorrow night

Then everything will be solved

How come you can be so dour And so unresponsive?

lf you don't teach me how to sleep on rope l won't play with you

l am mad now and l am leaving

l really am leaving

You are worse than that shrew Wong Yung

She has a sharp tongue but she plays along

You seem to be mute

Who wants to play with you?

l can skip the play part

You teach me how to sleep on rope and l will go

l will never play with you again

l beg you, come on

Whatever it is in your mind, you say it Let me handle it for you

Then we can have fun together

l got it, you keep looking at the two Taoists

They must have bullied you

l got it right the first time

That's easy, let me catch them for you

Hey...

Don't you look like a rice dumpling now?

Or a crab?

Neither actually, you look like a bundle

Pity you are still useful

Now that you look so pitiable l should set you free

But don't worry l only borrow you for a while

You will be all right in no time

And will always be all right l promise you

l am back

Wan Chi-ping?

l got him back

You can do whatever you want with him

But before you punish him

Let me show you my masterpiece

My handwriting not bad?

He angered you, you can do whatever you like with him

You want me show you how?

l don't want to see him

Let me break his legs for you No!

You tell him to go

How troublesome you are

This is not right, that is not right

What really do you want?

What do l want? What do l want?

l always say women are just troublesome

You are lucky this time Don't be naughty again, just go

Hey...don't go, you have not taught me yet

l have followed you for so long

Can't you give me some response?

Cute, cute, now you have to play with me

Hey, give it back to me

lt is not yours, how did you get it?

Of course it is mine

You took the thunder ball from my hand Of course it is mine

Thunder ball?

Sure it is, its full name is the llluminating, Out-of-the-Blue, Thunder Ball

lt took me 49 days to find it in the Fiery Mountain

lt was not possible, l gave it to Gor

Gor? Gor who?

Gor is Gor, why should l tell you?

l mean what is his full name?

He...why should l tell you?

He is Yeung Gor?

How did you know?

l got it now, you stole it from him

Of course not, he gave it to me l can swear

All right, go ahead

l Chow Pak-tung now swear lf l stole the Thunder Ball from Yeung Gor

Let me be hit with shit, all right?

Bird dropping?

So you really stole it

You listen to me, this was what happened...

That day l felt hungry, so l stole a fish...

That's what happened

And he gave me the Thunder Ball

Have you seen him since? No

Oh yes, they call me the Old Mischief

Yeung Gor is a young version of me

l should have taken him as disciple How stupid of me

He sure is like you Yes

He is playful, but when he is tender He is very nice

He cares about me, and is good to me

He does everything for me

How corny

He sure doesn't like me in this aspect

l am scared of women, they give me creeps

Then why are you following me?

You are different You are pretty and beautiful

And you don't talk much, don't scold much

You can sleep on a rope

Every body likes you

Really?

Do you think Gor will like me?

Of course, l fear women and l like you

Of course h will like you

What if he likes another woman?

He won't

Look at you, you are sweet and smooth

Even the blind likes you when he sees you

Gor can't be an exception

How can the blind see?

Right...

Gor, l wont' be able to see you anymore

How come? You are not blind

Oh yes, l have to steal the royal standard

Are you coming?

No?

Then l gotta go

You just stay here

You have to teach me sleeping on a rope when l come back

See you

lf love is true, there is no regret

So long we can see one another

Love runs like water

And l am more fortunate that the wild swan

Alone in the world

lf love is true, we fear no separation

Love is impervious to shifting changes

Who would renounce love?

Love is like the wild swan

Mountains are no obstacles

Love is like the morning dew A moment can be eternity

lf love is strong, it will never fade

Separation is hard, reunion is remote

Love keeps the heart ablaze

lf love is true There is no need for remorse

What is lost can be found

Our love still glows

lt soars like the wild swan

lt overcomes sorrows and separations

Cheers Cheers...

l wonder if Your Reverend is used to our wine

Your Highness, it goes down well

My late father once told me

Your Uncle-in-arms Yau Chu-kei has enjoyed this wine in his trip to the west

He might have said the same thing

lt goes down well

So allow me to say

Your brother-in-arms Wan Chi-ping is inferior in talent and perception

When compares with his shifu

Brother-in-arms Wan is a bit weird in character

And he is not in good mood lately

That's why he couldn't come

Your Highness please forgive him

l see that he is not only inferior to his shifu in talent and perception

He can't compare with you either

You are too kind

Grand Tutor is perceptive

My toast to you, Reverend Chiu

Cheers! Cheers!

Grand Tutor, what about your date with Elder Chow?

l think it is about time

You don't mean to use my royal standard as prop?

Your Highness, be rest assured

l have something to discuss with Reverend Chiu

Should l leave you to yourselves?

lt will be too presumptuous of me

Reverend Chiu, care to go out for a walk?

Sure!

l never thought that His Highness can be so easy-going

Not just easy-going, he is very perceptive

That's why he can tell you will make a better abbot than Reverend Wan

Really?

So l want to give you a chance to distinguish yourself

Let me ask you, who is the highest in status in Quanzhen School

lt should be Grand Uncle-in-arms Chow Pak-tung

Right, Ma Kok, Yau Chu-kei and Wong Chu-yat call him Uncle-in-arms

lf he backs you up How can Wan Chi-ping fight you?

Right, but how can you make him help me?

He is coming to steal the royal standard tonight

And?

The royal standard is hidden under the statue outside the barracks

That means even if he turns the barracks upside down

He won't be able to find it

And he will be hopping mad

He will take losing to me as a humiliation

Right, he is childish in temper He is a poor loser

Then you show up and take him to the standard

You help him win He will see you as his saviour

Then l demand his support

Now go after him and grab the chance

Be rest assured Grabbing chance is my forte

Kubla

Assassin, assassin, get the assassin

How come only the rod is here Where is the standard?

lt must that baldy

l am so mad

Assassin, assassin, assassin in side hall

So that baldy wants to play catching thief with me

Fine

Assassin here

Over there, go get him, come on

Come here...assassin here

You blind?

You are not the assassin

Grand Tutor gave the words that you would come for the royal standard

Then who is the assassin?

Your Highness

Get him Yes

Come on

Over there....

So you are back Who is it?

Shifu? lt is you

l am right about you after all

My disciple finally knows how to play catching the thief

Catching the thief?

You are the thief or the soldier?

Shifu, l don't understand

Assassin is thief, are you the assassin?

Yes, l am the assassin

But it is not a game, it is for real

For real?

Yes, my father and brother used to be senior officials of Mongolia

That l knew, you don't have to tell me

But l have to start from the beginning to make you understand

Start from the beginning? Then you won't finish till morning

No, you tell me in one or two sentences

All right, two or three

Yes, my father and brother used to be senior officials of Mongolia

They have done great works for the court

But they have thus incurred the distrust of Khan

So we moved down south to avoid court intrigue

But fourth prince Kublai sees us as his enemies

He ordered the extermination of my whole family

My sister and l managed to fight our way out

But my father and brother...

What a pity l don't have a father to avenge

Or l can assassinate that Mongolian with you

Shifu, l am sorry

But l have a way

Your vengeance is my vengeance

We can avenge it together

Now let us kill that Mongolian

Shifu, now that Kublai is alerted

lf you gojust like that

lf something happens to you, then l...

Nonsense, what nonsense

You mean l am not their par?

How ridiculous

That's not what l mean

You really piss me off

The more l think about it The more pissed off l become

When you were seven You shaved your neighbour's sheep

l thought you were like me

But you grew up to be the opposite of me

You are more like my brother Kwok Ching Exactly like him

Shifu, l am sorry

Since l am not free tonight

You go to Xiangyang to look for my brother

He is killing Mongolians there

You help him kill a few as substitutes

And kill that Kublai later

Yes, l am going now

But he doesn't know me

l've got a way, you just go ahead

l will write him a letter later

You can go now

l am going Just go

Shifu, when will we meet again?

Don't tell others you are my disciple

Just go Yes

Stinking Gold Wheel, bastard Gold Wheel

What kind of hero are you?

You can only hide like a turtle

l dare you to come out

See which get the royal standard first

Stinking Gold Wheel, bastard Gold Wheel

How underhanded of you to hide the standard

All right, let me burn the barracks down

See where you can hide it

Grand Uncle-in-Arms, you can't do it

Why?

You don't know, they have buried dynamites here

lf you set fire, you will blow yourself up

What a close call

What is your name?

Chiu Chi-king

Chiu Chi-king l will put in a few good words for you

When l see those Taoists

Grand Uncle-in-arms, thank you

And more, l have risked my life to find out a secret

What secret?

Gold Wheel Abbot has hid the royal standard away

But l finally found out where it is

Come with me, let us get it

No, we don't

lf l can't find it, l just lose

But if you tell me, it is a disgrace

All right, let me join in the race

See who finds it first

That's different, see who finds it first

What? The royal standard is under the statue?

Let me get it first

But l can beat you to it

Lass, lass, l found the royal standard

You have done it before

lt is pretty, let me show you

l fooled him that there was dynamite

And l helped him got the standard

He will come out to thank me

Chow Pak-tung

Grand Uncle-in-Arms...Miss Dragon...

You all right? Grand Uncle-in-Arms...

Chow Pak-tung... Grand Uncle-in-Arms

You cheated me, you traitor

l...Grand Uncle-in-Arms... Don't call me

You tell Yau Chu-kei, ask him to kill you

You all right? Chow Pak-tung...

Abbot, you have put me in deep water

He isn't dead yet?

Dragon Girl inside too She is here?

Even if Grand Uncle-in-arms is dead

lf Dragon Girl spreads it out

lt wouldn't be enough even if l had ten lives

No wonder Quanzhen Five won't make you abbot

Your grand uncle-in-arms now has Rainbow Spider venom

Even l don't have the antidote

One more hour and he will be dead

With only Dragon Girl left inside l can handle her easily

Right

Gold Wheel Abbot

Chow Pak-tung

What bit me? lt hurts

You are not dead yet?

Not entirely, but almost there

Old Mischief, have you got the royal standard?

What about our bet for today?

You won, so what?

Stinking monk You put a venomous spider there

How wicked

He can still speak so loudly

Chiu Chi-king, why are you still here?

Go to Yau Chu-kei and let him kill you

Abbot

Reverend Chiu is very capable

Our prince means to ask Khan to make him Quanzhen Abbot

What? l am so pissed

Chow Pak-tung...

Gold Wheel Abbot, how shameful you are

You couldn't beat him and used a venomous spider instead

Give me the antidote

Helping others is our duty

And saving a life is the highest grace

The antidote is here, come and get it

Abbot, how is it?

He won't last long

Chow Pak-tung...

Abbot, is Grand Uncle-in-Arms dead?

He took Dragon Girl's Jade Bee Needle for me

Poison plus poison, he can't live

Chow Pak-tung, l didn't mean to hit you

Don't you blame me for it

lt hurts, what bit me?

You are not dead?

Not totally dead But not exactly alive either

lt is unbearable

lt is good you are still alive

That monk is wicked, l can't beat him

Bloody baldy he couldn't wait to see me dead

He hit me with these needles

lt was not him, it was me You?

l didn't aim at you, l threw them at him

But he used you as a shield

He used me as a human shield

The needles have poison on them

You take this royal jelly lt is the antidote

But l felt good when you hit me with the needles

Why don't you give me some more?

You kidding?

Come on, just do it

l won't force you to take the royal jelly

Even that ugly spider couldn't kill you

You must be immune to all poisons

Just prick me

Abbot, he really won't...

Miss Dragon, let me borrow your weapon

Why don't you carry on with your needles?

Wait till l get my strength back l will break his head

l have no more left, all gone

That's tough, you are not his par

What if he barges in?

Abbot, this is our chance

Who will be so stupid as to reveal his weakness

lt is not that easy to lure me in

Abbot, now we... Wait

Daybreak now

You all right?

Still bad, very poor

Abbot, what if he really can force the poison out by inner force?

Let me

No, it is venomous

Come out, l dare you to come out

Bloody baldy, how wicked We won't fall for it

All right, prepare to be starved to death
