" Huh?

- Do you know who did this to Chang?

- The Mask.

(menacing music)

- Those evil swine.

We've been after them for three months

and haven't got a damn clue yet.

Brother Chang,

you find out anything?

(Chang gasping)

(Chang groaning)

- He's dead.

- Once again, there's no clues.

- Wrong.

We've a clue.

Brother Chang was spying on the Mask Gang

and he got spotted and ambushed.

He had no chance.

He said the base of the Mask Gang

is in Jingyang Town.

- Jingyang Town? - Jingyang Town?

- Jingyang is only a few days away.

We could...

- Chang said that all the killers wear masks

and the three chiefs have gold masks,

and all of the gang are experts

in using the trident.

(prisoner groaning)

Well now,

you always seemed so brave before.

What happened to you, eh?

- You lousy bastards.

You smashed our home

and you killed 28 of our family,

but you're all going to pay for this, I swear it.

Our family will take revenge on you!

- Wait,

I know that in your family there were 29 men.

Why'd you say 2s?

Did your brother, Du Meng, get away then?

And you think he's gonna avenge you?

- That's right.

(red beard laughing)

- Sir.

(glass shattering)

(handle cranking)

(foreboding music)

- Brother!

Brother!

- Brother!

Brother!

- Brother!

- When we take a job, nobody gets away.

Now then, before you actually die,

I'll show you something.

(ominous music)

This money is what your enemy paid us

for wiping out your whole family.

And now the money is ours!

Here!

(gang members laughing)

All right!

Now you've all been paid.

Let's finish off this killing job.

There's still these two, so let's fix them!

(gang members shouting)

(intense music) (Meng groaning)

(brother gasping)

Now, my friend, all the family's dead.

No point in hoping.

There'll be no vengeance.

- My soul won't rest.

(red beard laughing)

- Well that's exactly what I want!

(trident swishing) (metal clanking)

(prison screaming)

- The Mask.

Jingyang Town,

and that's where we'll start.

- Jingyang Town?

Lin Yung Chi, doesn't he live in that place?

Real famous family.

We could visit him there.

What do you think?

- Lin Yung Chi.

(gentle music)

(somber flute music)

- What is it?

- A visitor to see you.

A young man, name's Chang Chung.

- Oh, fetch him.

I shall see him.

- Sir.

(ominous music)

Mr. Chang.

Master will see you.

- Ah.

(somber music)

Please.

- We're full, I'm very sorry, sir, we're full.

- Goodbye.

Goodbye, sir.

Ah, goodbye, sir.

- Sorry, sir, the inn is completely booked up.

- I'm a regular here, I always stay here.

- Those are martial arts men.

It wouldn't be suitable for you to stay here.

Sorry, sir.

Sorry.

- Huh.

- This is a very small town.

Lin Yung Chi is rich, why would he want to live here?

- In this place there are few good fighters,

so it might be a good spot for a gang to have a base.

- Oh, I see.

You think that Lin may be a chief.

(foreboding music)

(baggage clattering)

- Hey!

Goddamn it, don't go breaking up all my things.

- Sorry.

- I didn't say that.

- Please.

- Excuse you!

(ominous music)

Good, a great honor to meet you.

Our small town, here, is most flattered

that you should have chosen to come here on a visit.

But still, this hotel is hardly very suitable.

Look, come to my place, be my guests.

- Mr. Lin,

did Chang tell you why we're here?

- Oh yes.

Strange, I've lived here for years

and I've never heard of any gang

of masked killers around here.

- That doesn't surprise me, few people have.

We'll ask around.

But while we're here,

it's more convenient that we stay in the hotel.

But thanks for the offer.

- Nonsense, I must insist.

Come on, I promise you'll be very comfortable.

Don't listen to him, come on.

- We must be careful, we've already lost many men.

They were ambushed.

So as for now on, we will stick together.

Much safer that way.

- Hmm, right.

Well, in that case, we'll just have a drink.

Is that all right?

- Why, of course.

- But the food in this place isn't very good.

You go home and tell the cook to send some food here.

- Sir.

(utensils clinking) (liquid pouring)

- Well here's to you.

- Ah, right, cheers!

- How do you know that these killers

have their base in this town?

- I must introduce you to my men.

Still, with so many, I can't introduce them all.

You ever here of the Long Family and the Han Family?

- Yes, of course.

The Long's are well known, very famous.

Great fighters.

The oldest son is a very great swordsman, Long Congfeng.

I think that he's know through the whole country.

They say he and his brothers are called "Heroes Four,"

and the Han Family's whirling swordsman

was one of the most famous fighters of all time.

- Hmm.

Well these are two of the Long brothers.

Long Chung Y",

Long Chung Chang.

And the Whirling Swordsman's son,

his eldest son, Han Yung Chang.

And they have a story, so listen.

- Well now, it was about a month ago.

My sister was on her way to get married.

Two of my brothers were escorting her.

They were traveling on a fairly lonely road

when they were attacked suddenly.

(fighters grunting) (metal clanking)

- Ah, help, help!

(metal clanking)

(brother groaning)

(cloth tearing)

(brother groaning)

(metal clinking)

(trident swishing)

(brother screaming) (menacing music)

- Oh no!

Brother!

(sister crying)

- My brother and I came as fast as we could,

soon as we heard.

We were too late.

My young brother was dying.

- HEY-

- Brother! - Brother!

- Brother!

- Brother. - Brother.

- It was the masked killers, the masked killers,

they took sister.

(brother groaning)

- Brother! - Brother!

- Brother!

- Brother! - Brother!

- We made inquiries in the area around

for more than two weeks.

One of our men traced them to this town

and he snooped around,

but the gang caught on to him and they killed him.

But before he died, he talked to us.

- HEY-

We don't need you hanging around here.

Get back to the kitchen.

- He told you, out of here.

(punch thudding)

(ominous music)

That stupid dumb cook, sneaking around.

Right, let's eat.

- Yeah, right, eat up.

- Something wrong with that cook.

- You can't be sure.

But still, one thing, he knows Kung Fu.

Just now, when Yang pushed him,

he moved like a real expert.

Obviously used to moving fast.

Didn't hurt himself at all.

- One thing's for sure, that man will bear some watching.

- Strange,

that cook,

I'm sure that I know him.

- Come on, have another drink.

- I think that I've drank too much.

I'll spend the night here.

- Master, this is no place for you.

- I said I'll spend the night here.

Get a room.

(somber music)

- Why does he wanna sleep here?

Very strange.

He comes from a very wealthy family.

He'd never sleep in this sort of place.

Doesn't make any sort of sense.

Besides, he didn't have much to drink.

Something's going on.

Wang Chu Li?

You take the next room and keep an eye on him.

Check all of his movement.

- Hmm.

(foreboding music)

- Han Ying.

While he is spending the night here,

take a look around his house.

See what you find.

- Hmm.

- Now then, hold it tight.

You got that, all right?

- Yes. - Good.

(foreboding music)

That's it.

Now you sit up straight, come on.

Now you should always keep an proper posture

when you're writing.

You understand that?

Come along, then.

- [Child] Yes, teacher, we understand.

- Right, now then,

carry on writing, come along.

Remember, you have to write perfectly.

You've got a long way to go yet.

(foreboding music)

Hey.

Sit up straight.

(ominous music)

(foreboding music)

(Ying yelping)

(metal clinking)

(Ying's yelling muted)

(Ying groaning)

(tridents slicing)

(teacher yawning)

(somber music)

- Hey, where you going?

- Out for a drink of water.

- Right, I'll come too.

(somber music)

- I told you not to drink so much.

- Yeah, I know. - But it's still good though.

(ominous music)

- Get up.

Don't sleep near the door.

Huh?

(ominous music)

Well now, so you do know Kung Fu, huh?

Guess Chang Chung was right.

- Well, let's see just how much.

(punch thudding)

- What's going on?

- Oh, I was thirsty, wanted a drink.

And you?

- Ha, I'm the same.

- You think he knows Kung Fu.

Well I don't.

(water sloshing)

- The move you made to duck his kick, what style is that?

- No style, you're wrong.

- You are?

- Just the cook.

- Sorry, I disturbed your sleep.

- Best to be awake.

(Ying clattering)

(Ying groaning)

- Oh my God!

(Ying moaning)

- Lin's house, the killers were there.

They all attacked me.

No one there heard them.

One of them wore a gold mask.

Wore...

(sinister music)

- Go and see if Lin is still there.

- Right. - Wait.

Quietly.

- OkaY-.

(trident slicking)

(menacing music)

(suspenseful music)

- Take Lin Yung.

' Right! ' Right!

(suspenseful music)

- What's wrong?

What is this?

- I got first drink!

- Come on! - Hey, come!

- Hey!

Hey, let me have it.

Come on.

(menacing music)

(metal clattering)

(suspenseful music)

(fighters grunting)

(dagger swishing)

(attacker groaning)

(fighter groaning)

(Chang yelling)

(attacker groaning)

(eerie music)

- Thanks.

- Don't know what you mean.

(eerie music)

- Take the masks off.

- Right. - Right.

- Don't know him. - Don't know him.

- Nor me.

- Han Ying, Wang Chu Li have both been killed.

- Lin Yung Chi?

- Was asleep in his room.

So it seems he's not involved in this.

Oh, take them away.

- Hmm. - Right.

- Come on.

- Well now, these two masked assassins were killed by Chang.

You know them?

- No, I don't.

- Sit down.

Tell me, in this town,

is there any man you think could be connected with the gang?

- There is one man.

Name's Fong Su Kwong.

A good fighter.

Still, I must admit, he is my enemy.

Therefore, people may say I am naming out of spite.

- Please tell me about this man.

Be frank.

- Well, Fong Su Kwong is a strange character.

Sometimes he even goes and helps the poor.

Sometimes he does some very unpleasant things.

I hear that in his house he has some good fighters,

so they could well be this gang.

And his house is big enough too

to be the base that you're looking for.

- Hmm.

Fong Su Kwong.

(menacing music)

(trident swishing)

(metal rattling)

(trident swishing)

(ominous music)

(people chattering)

- Ah, Mr. Fong.

- Mr. Fong. - Mr. Fong.

(ominous music)

- Mr. Fong. - Hi, Mr. Fong.

Please.

(somber music)

- Have a seat, Mr. Fong. - Yes, sit here.

Mr. Fong, sit down, sit down.

Sit down.

(ominous music)

- Some tea?

- Fong Su Kwong's inside.

(somber music)

BuYihg food?

- Yeah.

Watch where you go and beware the butcher.

- HEY-

I don't care about the risk, I've gotta find him.

- Not scared?

- Maybe I am, but I still have to look.

Hey.

Tell me, where can I find this butcher?

Answer me.

- I don't know, but I'll soon know.

He looks for me, I look for him.

Come with me to the market.

- Sure.

Sure.

(Chang laughing)

Right, what do we make?

We can have fish in a sauce first

and then an assorted dish and...

And...

- Light the fire.

" Huh?

The fire?

Now listen, you, no way I'm lighting fires.

- I do it, why not you?

- Since I've been here, we've met every day.

But I still don't know your name.

- Doesn't matter, I'm nobody.

- I'm Chang Chung.

Don't know your background,

but still, you're obviously a man of spirit.

- That so?

My spirit's dead.

Either light the fire or go away,

but don't just stand there.

Because if you do, you may get burnt.

(sticks snapping)

- Are you saying that I might get killed here?

(Chang laughing)

Even if I can't light the fire, I can still be the cook.

- Wanna be a hero.

- Everyone does.

- Sure.

Everyone wants that.

And they'll all get burnt as well.

- Maybe, but it beats living like a slave.

(ominous music)

- Just keep away from me, all right?

- Well, I can't.

Wanna help.

- Right.

Go light the fire.

(ominous music)

- I don't believe your spirit's dead.

You don't believe it either.

Lin said you seem familiar to him.

A fighter keeps going.

No real man ever runs away.

(bamboo crunching)

(foreboding music)

Don't bother.

I saw it break.

Pretty good.

(bamboo clanking)

Tell me, what's the problem?

Why are you hiding?

- Light the fire.

- All right, I will.

(somber music)

(ominous tempo music)

- Come on!

- Ah!

- HEY-

Hey, don't cry.

Come on.

Hey, I'll buy you something.

Come on.

(child crying)

Hey.

I'll have one of those.

- All right. - That's right.

Thank you.

Hey, come on.

Have a look at this, hey?

Look.

Look, look, look, look.

(foreboding music)

Isn't that nice, huh?

Hey, come on, I'll get you another one, huh?

(trident swishing)

(Yang groaning)

- Sir Yang?

Yang Ching Pow?

(sinister music)

(child crying)

- Hey, what is it?

Make way!

(crowd murmuring)

(child crying)

- Ah.

- Ew.

- HEY-

Start eating.

Come on, I made it myself.

(Chang laughing)

Come on, don't sit there, eat it.

‘ HEY, Why so few men?

Where are they, the others?

- Well, brothers Yang and Chi

are out watching Fong Su Kwong,

and I think Chin and Han are helping them.

And so probably when Fong goes home, they'll all come back.

- Yeah, and I bet they're having some real good food too.

- Hey, and just what do you mean?

I bet the food they're eating isn't as good as this is.

Come on, come on.

Come on, eat up.

- Hey, that's too much. - Come on.

- Hey, that's enough, thanks. - Eat up.

There's plenty here.

- No, no, no, no. - There's some for you, go on.

‘ No!

- And here's plenty for you too.

Come on, now eat up.

Eat up, come on.

- Yang Ching Pow is really-

- Hey!

Yang Ching Pow is really unlucky

not to be eating a meal like this.

(dramatic music)

- Yang has become the next victim.

The killer used a gold trident.

(metal clattering)

(glass shattering)

(melancholic string music)

- What do you want?

out!

- You don't know the pig for the butcher's knife.

- What was that?

(punches thudding)

- Now, look, calm down.

Whatever he said, it wasn't meant to offend you.

- I don't care.

- All right, come over here!

- That cook,

don't trust him.

He's up to something.

- Fong can't be the chief.

At the time Yang was killed,

I was watching Fong.

- Well if it's not Fong and it's not Lin,

then who is the chief?

Beats me.

- What do you think?

- Neither is the chief.

Yet both could be the chief.

- So you're thinking there could be

more than one chief, huh?

While we were watching one,

the other one could go out and kill somebody.

- So then, Lin Chin Yung and Fong Su Kwong

could both be masked killers.

- What do we do?

- We get Lin and Fong together somehow and see what happens.

- Right.

I'll invite Fong Su Kwong to meet us at Lin's.

Chang joins me,

the rest of you wait nearby Lin's house.

When Fong Su Kwong leaves,

Chan will follow him.

- Right.

(gentle flute music)

(door clanking)

- I've been looking for you everywhere.

Who'd have thought you were here as a cook?

- But still, we've got you now.

- And what do you want?

You're from the temple?

Never knew there was a temple here.

- Ha.

HE can act.

- Yeah, but let's find his things.

Around her somewhere.

(foreboding music)

(ominous music)

(sticks clattering)

- Hey, wanna talk?

- You talk.

- Right.

I'll tell you this,

even if the pig tries to hide himself from the butcher,

butcher always finds him.

- You saw him?

- Hmm.

- What now?

- Infiltrate the gang, just like you did.

But I'll do it differently though.

That mask you got hold of there,

it's the chief's?

Now there's no way you can do this alone, and so...

- Not realized yet I am the chief?

- Listen, you, cut that out.

My friends were killed, it's not a joking matter.

Listen, I'm sorry.

Maybe you wanna do it alone.

- Now, wait.

You asked me my name.

Well, I'll tell you.

It's Kao.

Kao Yao.

(Lin chuckling)

- Mr. Fong.

- So he came.

- Sure I did, but I had to.

- The reason I asked you here

was to meet my two young friends.

- Chi San Yuen.

- Chang Chung.

- Hello, hello.

I seem to know both your faces.

Maybe I happened to see you when you followed me.

It could be.

Now then, please tell me how I can help you.

Speak freely.

- We're looking for a killer gang.

- I did hear, recently,

that several men have been killed.

But why have you come to this particular town though?

And what makes you think

that they have their base around here?

I'm sure if they did have their base here,

well then, Mr. Lin, here, would know all about it.

- I have no idea.

I thought you might know.

- Ha.

You're both well known men.

You oughta help us, it's your duty.

- It is our duty.

- Well, let's discuss it awhile.

I've prepared us some wine.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

(group laughing)

- Cheers, yeah. - Cheers.

(group chattering)

(gentle music)

(eerie music)

(sinister music)

(metal clanking)

(trident slicing) (gang member screaming)

(ominous music)

(Chen groaning)

(intense music)

(Chen groaning)

- You're right.

- [Chi] Yeah.

- YES.

- Chen Sheng Kang's dead!

(intense music)

- The killer was wearing this gold mask,

and that means he was a chief.

- Chen must have snatched the mask off

before he was actually killed.

And that means he saw the killer's face.

- Pity that he can't tell us who he was.

- Well then, let's see.

- I know who it was.

He's always around.

It's him!

- Nonsense.

Can't be.

- Let's go back.

(wood crackling)

(objects clattering)

(glass shattering)

— Lia ng Yung,

that's enough.

- Shut up.

I'm sure he's going something hidden here.

(glass shattering)

- Even if he does, it proves nothing.

- Now, look, what does that mean?

- What do you mean?

- Listen, I did discover Kao had something hidden here.

" Huh?

- But after I saw what they were,

I moved them and hid them somewhere else.

(metal clanking)

(sinister music)

Here's the mask.

(ominous music)

- You see?

That cook is the chief.

- No, he's not the chief.

He was only using those things

as a method of infiltrating the killer gang.

- You see, look at that.

This trident is one that was used to kill Chen.

Why are you protecting him?

What's he to you?

- A friend.

(ominous music)

You see, if he hadn't helped that night,

three of us, Yang and Chen and I, would've been killed.

- Doesn't mean a thing.

Yang and Chen have both been killed since then.

What's it proved?

- The cook, the chief's a cook?

Now look, the chief must be powerful man,

and wealthy too.

Would he work here as a cook?

It just doesn't make sense.

NOE t0 me.

- It must be him.

We're dying one by one,

and he's the best suspect that we have.

When Chen was killed, you were both drinking

with Fong and with Lin.

- Hey, let's do nothing rash.

(ominous music)

(metal clanking)

- Look, he's come back.

(foreboding music)

(metal clanking)

(foreboding music)

- Well, Mr. Lin, why are you here?

- Mr!

why are you here?

- To see a man and check to see if he's an old friend.

- Well, Mr. Fong,

if this man is a cook,

I've already seen him,

and he is an old friend.

After you.

- After you.

(ominous music)

(water trickling)

- Who would've thought that the man we tried so hard to find

was in our midst?

- Life's full of the unexpected.

- My friend,

it's clear to me that your Kung Fu is very good.

Are you connected with the gang?

These men are masked killers, murdering beasts.

You know how they'll end up.

- I know, yes, I know.

- Man must answer for what he is.

If you're a member of the gang, use your trident.

- I only use it on members of the gang and no one else.

(sword swishing)

(Yang grunting)

Hm.

(sword swishing)

(kick thudding)

- Come on.

Help me.

(fan swishing)

(Chi grunting)

(ominous music)

- He's got a helper.

(metal clinking)

(intense music)

- You better go hide somewhere.

They don't believe you.

" Huh?

- Go on.

See you.

(ominous music)

(somber music)

- Listen, it was him who helped that goddamn killer escape.

- If I thought he was a killer, I wouldn't have helped.

- So you SaY-

- Brother, do you trust me?

- Sure I do.

And I think whatever Kao may happen to be,

he isn't evil.

- That's good.

If you just give him a chance to talk,

I'll bring him to you.

- Where has he gone to?

- Don't know, but still, I said I'd wait.

I think he'll come back.

Don't think he'll let me down.

It maybe awhile yet but he'll come.

- Good.

(somber music)

(fire crackling)

(sinister music)

(blades slicing)

(metal clanking)

(foreboding music)

(lively instrumental music)

— Who is it?

Who enters here without my permission?

Is that you, Number Three?

It is you.

- Number One, we may as well be quite open

as we both know who the other is,

and so then there's no need for any masks.

- Right.

(sinister music)

(curtains whooshing)

- Well, still waiting?

Friend not come?

Listen, there's no doubt

that he's the chief of that murdering gang.

You must be blind not to see that.

- Shut up!

(waterfall trickling)

(trident swishing)

(metal clanking)

(eerie music)

- What are you thinking?

- I was thinking you're an expert with that thing.

- I was the killers‘ number two chief.

I oughta be expert.

(Chang laughing)

- You're making jokes.

- It isn't a joke.

_?

I apposed my brothers for you.

You mean I'm wrong about...

No, no, it can't be.

- It is.

I was the number two in the gang.

Remember, the night you checked into the hotel?

I was there.

I heard you friend, Long, say

that his brother was killed and his sister kidnapped.

I witnessed that myself.

The killers have their base in an old temple.

(sister whimpering)

- [Thug] Go on!

(ominous music)

- Brother!

Brother!

(sister whimpering)

(metal clanking)

(brother groaning)

Brother!

- Now don't cry.

The Long clan don't give in easy.

- Hm big-mouthed idiot.

Trying to be brave, are you?

Ha!

(metal clanking)

(brother yelling)

- Oh, brother!

(sister crying)

Brother!

- What about that girl?

- Let's have a bit of fun there, huh?

- Right.

- [Thug] Right, come on. (sister crying)

_ Hold it!

" Huh? " Huh?

- What?

You want a piece of this too?

- We're professionals.

We've killed a lot of people

as a means of getting money.

But this time we've killed for a small dowry,

almost nothing.

We've killed this young fellow almost for fun.

He was hardly a man, even, just a young kid.

And now then, you want to rape a girl?

- We do what we want here,

killing or raping.

Rape.

(sister whimpering)

(thugs laughing) (cloth tearing)

- [Thug] Hey, let me in, will you?

(thugs laughing) (sister whimpering)

- Number Two, where you going?

Stop!

Or else I'll regard you as a traitor.

- Traitor?

Right.

I'll tell you what,

I'm giving notice.

I'm quitting this gang.

- Aren't you scared we will get you?

- You don't know me.

None of us know the other's faces under these masks.

Look for me all you want.

You're not gonna find me though.

(trident clanking)

(Kao fluttering)

- You're not connected with them now.

You quit of your own free will.

I wasn't wrong about you.

So you were hiding in the hotel.

- Right.

First, as a cook nobody would notice me,

and then secondly,

I could check on Number One and Number Three,

watch their movements.

- Their names?

- Number One's Lin Yung Chi.

Number Three is Fong Su Kwong.

- Those two men.

Can't be.

Brother Chi and I were drinking with both of them

the afternoon brother Chen was killed.

When we found Chen, he had a gold mask in his hand.

- Right.

They have a new Number Two since I've left.

It must've been him who killed Chen.

(foreboding music)

(wood clattering)

(eerie music)

- You are the new Number Two?

- YES.

- You've done your job.

- YES.

- Who'd you kill?

- As I was ordered.

I killed the master of Pi Hu Mansion, Cui Liang.

Please check him.

- Hmm.

(ominous tempo music)

- It is Cui Liang.

- Well our fee for this job was 100 taels.

We take half and Number Two gets the other half.

(ominous tempo music)

- Thank you, Number One.

- As you are the Number Two now,

take a seat.

(sparks fizzling)

(gang members shouting)

- You take these 20 taels and share them out.

(gang members cheering)

(glass shattering)

(gang members laughing)

(gang members whooping)

- And who is the new Number Two?

- Don't know.

I tried to find out,

couldn't though.

- Tell me, what are your plans now?

- I'm leaving.

(eerie music)

- Don't leave.

Stay and help us smash that gang.

— No good,

‘cause none of your friends could ever trust me.

- But they would in time.

- Now you know the chiefs and who they are.

Tell your brother, Chi,

to get more men and then attack the gang.

It won't be too difficult.

Because you'll take them in the old temple.

Much easier than fighting in a house.

Wait until they meet, then you strike.

(somber music)

Go back now.

‘ Hey, Wait!

(somber music)

(foreboding music)

(footsteps crunching)

(metal clanking)

‘ Hi-yah!

(Chang laughing)

Surprised, huh?

I knew you'd eventually change your mind

and take me up on my offer.

HEY, well, am I right?

You join us, huh?

(metal clanking)

(Chang laughing)

(metal clinking)

(trident swishing)

Hey, stop it.

That's enough!

(metal clinking)

(foreboding music)

(Chang laughing)

Good.

All three at one time.

More than I'd hope for.

Ha, I'll say this.

You all look very different in those fancy little outfits.

(trident swishing)

(suspenseful music)

Ha, you're Fong Su Kwong, Number Three.

(suspenseful music)

(Fong yelling)

(metal clinking)

(trident swishing)

I know who you are.

Lin Yung Chi, the Number One.

- Right.

Now you can die.

(sword swishing)

(metal clinking)

(trident swishing)

- Number Two, you are,

I must admit, I don't know who you are.

(metal clinking)

Now I know you.

(suspenseful music intensifying)

(Chang chuckling)

‘ Ha!

- Oh, it is you.

I was right.

(trident swishing)

(fighters grunting)

(metal clinking)

(sword swishing)

(Chang groaning)

(sinister music)

(Chang groaning)

(Chang yelling)

(Chang gagging)

- It seems that they know who we are.

That is except for Liang Yung, here.

You'd better go back, Fong, and call a meeting.

And make it urgent because we gotta have it tonight.

Liang, you arrange to lower the men through a trap,

then we kill them.

(Chang gasping)

(town person laughing)

- Well, tonight, it's my turn to buy the drinks.

- Yeah.

" Huh?

- HEY-

- Look, look. - Forget it.

" Huh?

- Come on.

Forget it. - What's that?

What?

- Come along.

- Did you see that, though?

- Yeah, forget it.

- But the fellow's dying.

- Keep going, come on.

- Well, we ought to tell the police.

- It's not worth the trouble.

Those tridents went right through that fellow,

into the trees.

He's going to die for sure.

Even if you report it right away to the authorities,

what good can that do?

" Huh? " Huh?

~ on!

(ominous music)

- Chang Chung!

(Chang groaning)

(Chang groaning)

(dramatic music)

Number Two?

- Liang.

Liang, Liang, Liang Yung.

(melancholic music)

- [Waiter] Some water, sir?

Yeah?

- Listen, we should send some men

to that place where Kao appeared.

- Right.

And someone to keep an eye on the streets too.

But still, make sure every man is covered.

We've lost too many men.

This time, we won't be caught by surprise.

Chung Yu.

You and Ang go and check that location

where Kao appeared last night.

- All right.

- You two go out and check around the streets.

- Yep. - Hmm.

- Stay alert, all the time.

- Yeah. - Right.

(ominous music)

(foreboding music)

(metal clanking)

(ominous music)

- Hey, hide.

(ominous music)

- Can I help you? - One mat.

- Oh, sure.

- Here. - Yeah.

(ominous music)

(glass clattering)

" Huh?

(thug groaning)

(foreboding music)

- Chang Chung hasn't come back yet.

I'm getting worried.

- I think he's gone strange.

Insists Kao is not a killer, says he's a friend.

- Now look, Chang's a good man.

- A good man?

When he takes a killer as a friend, is that good?

(ominous music)

- You wanna know where Chang is?

- It's him.

He's the killer!

(foreboding music)

- Listen,

Chang is your friend, right?

Here's his coat.

Recognize it?

- He was hurt by a trident.

- YES.

- Now look, the killer's right here.

Let's take revenge.

(metal clinking)

- Let me finish first.

- You're stalling.

(trident swishing)

- Master Chi, please let me finish.

You'll be sorry if you don't.

- Let him talk first.

" Huh?

He's got his trident there.

He's the killer chief.

- After I left Chang, he was attacked by three masked men,

the three chiefs.

He fought back hard,

and in the fight, he must've managed to get their masks off.

- It's garbage.

Why listen to this?

(metal clinking)

- Calm down!

Let him finish.

- What's the point?

He's the one that killed Chang.

It's so obvious.

- Let him finish anyway!

- First of all, I know Number One and Number Three.

“ Who?

- Number One's Lin Yung Chi.

Three is Fong Su Kwong.

- Number Two?

- It's him.

(intense music)

- A stupid accusation.

It's so dumb.

I mean,

who'd believe that?

- Well, do you?

- Now, look!

Don't you listen.

The man's lying.

Brother Chang is dead now.

Can't testify.

He can say what he likes.

- I never said Chang's dead.

Not even once, so why do you keep on saying he's dead?

- Pierced right through, must be dead.

- How do you know he was pierced through?

Brother Chang?

(lively music)

Brother Chang, come here and tell us who the killers were.

(fighters groaning)

- He got away.

- Don't worry, we'll catch up with him.

He won't go far.

- Believe me now?

- He was a bit too anxious.

I noticed.

Still, it's lucky Chang's alive and can talk.

- Chang is dead though.

However, he told me it was Liang who attacked him.

Then he died.

" Huh?

- Luckily, Liang wasn't quite sure he was dead.

(melancholic music)

- Chang Chung? - Chang Chung?

- Brother Chang has been killed.

- Hm.

Well, we've caught one of the killers.

He can tell us the names of the chiefs.

(melancholic music)

(killer groaning)

(killer gagging)

" Huh?

Huh?

He bit off his tongue.

He's dead.

- Goddamn it all.

- It's all right.

We already know the chief's names.

Lin Yung Chi, Fong Su Kwong,

and Liang Yung.

- Liang Yung?

- When we caught this killer just now, he had this thing.

- It's a gathering order.

It's a signal

that the killers have to meet at the old temple.

I know the place.

- Liang Yung will go there too.

This is our chance.

We'll all go there and we'll wipe out the whole gang.

(foreboding music)

(Xianer humming)

- Sister. - Xianer.

(Chung groaning)

(Ang groaning)

- Now, look,

Kao Yao knows who we all are

and he's with Chi and his men right now.

- Well in that case then they should be here very soon.

We'll go in the back.

- These two?

(Chung and Ang groaning)

- Better not finish them off.

Leave them.

When their friends come,

they'll tell them where they've all gone to.

Just what we want.

We'll kill the whole lot.

- Hmm. - Hmm.

(metal clinking)

(blades whooshing)

(blades whooshing)
