Run, the Japanese are coming
Let's go quickly...
What's the matter?
Please give it back to us
Have mercy on us
I beg you
Sir, have mercy
Sir, have mercy, I beg you
Please give it back to us
Give it back to you?
Sir, look at my hands
I have spent tens of years picking ginseng
I do it to make a living
Now you are taking away my ginseng
do you want to see us starve to death?
Starve to death?
Old man...
You bastards are too cruel
How could we go on living?
I'll fight with my life
You sell to them
This is our old customer
I have always dealt with them
New rules now
you must sell your stuff to Marutani Corporation
Whose rules are those?
Ours
Your mayor has agreed
If you don't comply, look
If you keep grumbling
you'll end up like those two
We won't sell to the Japanese
Stop
If you don't sell to us
then don't come to town
Let's go to the mayor
We can't be bullied by the Japanese...
What's the point? Give in a little
No way
Sir, tell us if this vicinity belongs to the Chinese
or to the Japanese?
The Chinese of course
Then why are they so unreasonable?
They are like robbers
The Japanese are powerful, bear with it
No way, we'll fight to the death with them
Right, as long as we unite
I don't believe we can't beat them
Right, fight
Everyone, pipe down
don't be rash
Being rash would only ruin things, stop...
Why couldn't we fight?
It's precisely because those Japanese want to fight
that they have set up a fighting ring
We are not scared
We could get Ping Bai from the Jixian School
and level their fighting ring
Right...
Gu Lan is a master and Ping Bai isn't his match
Mayor, we can't just let them do as they please
Don't be rash, preserve your lives
I can't take this
I'd rather leave this place
Right... leave
Where to?
Come with me to the mountains if you have guts
Let's go
"Jixian School"
What are you doing here?
Some people came to town and caused trouble
and injured our men
Are you so useless?
Isn't it your responsibility?
Sir, he runs a martial arts school
If it weren't for him
how would the people be so bold?
We Chinese are amicable
you must have bullied them
Fang Ping Bai, are you tired of living?
What do you want?
Let's fight at the ring three days from now
What happens if you lose?
Your call
All you Japanese will leave here
Let's go
Go
Dad
Tie Wa, hide up this manual
Yes
Old Wang, if I lose
take Tie Wa to the mountains to look for Gin Chi
so he could look after him for me
Ping Bai...
Don't worry, maybe I could win
Of course I hope you would
Old Wang, take Tie Wa with you quickly
No, I want to fight with dad
Never mind me, just go
No, dad
Dad
Tie Wa
Chase them quickly
Chase...
Let's go quickly
But what should I do with the manual?
Guard the corpse
Tie Wa might come to see his dad
Yes
The others are searching the town
we must rid the problem completely
Yes
Well?
Nothing
Look over there
Check over there
Quiet
Feng Niou
Brother Tie, what has happened?
Feng, Tie Wa has to leave this place immediately
Go outside and see if there are any Japanese
Yes
No one here, go quickly
We're safe here
Sister Feng, please do me a favor
Bury my dad for me
I have a kung fu manual at home
Please hide it for me
Don't worry, I'll take care of it
If you succeed, I'll wait for you
You'll really wait for me?
Definitely
Thank you
Come on, the Japanese will be here any moment
Let's get out of here quickly
Feng, I have to go
Dad, I keep missing
Let me show you
Good
Tie Wa is here
The Japanese have killed Ping Bai
Uncle, you have to avenge dad
Tie Wa, we promise you
Stay here for now and practice hard
Die Er, take Tie Wa inside for a rest
Brother Tie, you should call me sister
Come on, don't be so vain
Tie Wa was easy on you
Dad, you are always on his side
You are no match for him
I don't believe it. C'mon, let's fight again
Come on
Brother Tie, do you yield?
Yes, you're good
This way I can teach you better
Come, again
Get up
Are you fighting for real?
Sorry...
I don't want to practice anymore
Sister Die...
Sister Die
How are you? Does it hurt?
I'm bleeding, what do you think?
What's on your mind?
It's nothing
Don't pretend, I know you're thinking of Feng Niou
This handkerchief was given to you by her
She has already been married to Da Xiong
why should I still think about her?
But you still cannot forget her
Sister Die, by now you still don't understand me?
How would I understand your feelings?
I only have eyes... for you
What's the latest situation inside the mountains?
Uncle Gin is leading everyone
to pick ginseng and practice martial arts
Tie Wa's kung fu is almost ready
We hope uncle Gin would come from the mountains soon
Feng Niou... come here...
Sit... make yourself comfortable
Do you recognize Old Wang?
Old Wang
You've grown
I heard you both were married
I haven't congratulated you yet
Thank you
Thank you...
What are you doing...
I beg you...
Don't take my things, Sir...
Kneel...
Sir, I beg you
Please have pity on me
Sir, I beg you
Please ask them to leave my stuff alone
Who is that Japanese?
He is Gu Gang, just returned from Japan
Sir, I beg you
Let's go
Sir
It looks like his kung fu is better than his dad's
sooner or later I have to fight with him
Da Xiong, don't be rash
That's right, be patient
When everyone has left the mountain
we'll think of a way to deal with him
I am going back
I won't accompany you
Those Japanese ronin are ruthless bullies
our people find it more difficult to live day by day
especially since Gu Gang's return
Who is he?
He is the son of Gu Lan, have you forgotten?
You fought with him when you were a kid
Tie Wa, go quickly to save Da Xiong
he is about to be killed by Gu Gang
Da Xiong
Fight with me if you have guts
Tie Wa, you want to die for him?
Da Xiong...
That's him?
He is now the leader of the ronin
I've heard that in the past ten years
he has acquired great skills in Japan
Master, I want to go down the mountain
Me too
What for?
To help brother Tie fight
Stop your nonsense
I know you are impatient
This is not the time, Tie Wa
we cannot fight them head on
It's advisable for you to test their strength first
and let sleeping dogs lie
Yes
Pack up and go
Stop
Now attack me all together
Why use so much force? You've injured them
None of your business
we are fighting with the Chinese
we must practice harder, come on
Look
He's gone
Who is this man?
Gin Gang
Yes
Find out for me
Yes
Come on
Bravo
Da Xiong, don't you recognize me? I am Tie Wa
It's you
You're back, let's talk inside
Alright
Feng Niou, look who's here
Have a seat
Tie Wa is here
Tie Wa
How are you all?
How are you?
Thank you
Have a seat
We think of you often
I had wanted to see you earlier
Feng Niou, go get some food and wine
Damn, I can't bear it any longer
We are shorthanded
wait until teacher and the others come down the mountain
How long do we have to wait?
Not too long
Da Xiong, do you know where is
my dad buried?
Yes
I want to pay my respects tomorrow
Right, Feng Niou, I have some business tomorrow
why don't you accompany Tie Wa
"Tomb of Fang Ping Bai"
My dad died two years after you left
I was alone and bore much suffering
I was determined to wait for your return
Then Gu Gang completed his martial arts training and
returned from Japan; He forced me to marry him
I would rather die than agree
He accosted me but Da Xiong helped me each time
Finally I couldn't refuse Da Xiong's good intentions
Sister Feng, stop
I haven't blamed you, you should marry
I know Da Xiong will bring you happiness
I came here today for the manual
You wouldn't understand a woman
I have kept the secret manual well
as you instructed
Even Da Xiong has not seen it
Even he hasn't seen it?
Be quiet
Stop, or I'll kill her
You're all useless
you can't even defeat one person
Get out
Sir
Have you lost again?
Tie Wa's kung fu is good
How does he compare to Da Xiong?
He's much more powerful
The two of them together could be a real problem
I have a plan
What is it?
Go out
Yes
I know about their personal matters
Tie Wa and Da Xiong's wife are very close
we'll capitalize on this relationship
Let them fight against themselves?
Okay, I'll leave this with you then
I'll take up this matter
Lai Zi, come
Mister
This kid is way out of line
Yesterday he went to the grave with Feng Niou
he was so affectionate with her...
These days it's hard to say
one can't tell who's honest by his looks
So what happened afterwards?
I can't even bear to say it
You saw it with your own eyes?
If it hadn't come from madam Chang I won't believe
She said she saw it herself, could there be a mistake?
So shameless
This guy has been cuckolded and doesn't even know it
isn't this a joke?
Yes
If you keep talking rubbish I'll kill you
Paper can't contain fire, you'll soon find out
This scarf has been with me for many years
I'll return it to you now
You are really determined to fight with Gu Gang?
It's fortunate you kept the Thunder Fist manual for me
I'll give it to you once I get home
If I learn dad's kung fu
I'll surely win
This kid is way out of line
Yesterday he went to the grave with Feng Niou
he was so affectionate with her...
What should I do?
This woman, her heart is unfaithful
and is with Tie Wa
Does her husband know?
He is sure to be a cuckold
Who are you referring to?
I didn't mention any names
You fail to have a leash on your wife, yet you hit me?
Right, if you have guts go and hit the adulterer
I just passed by your home
and saw them together
Do you think they could be up to any good?
That's right
Da Xiong, where were you just now?
You two are so close
Speak, what is this?
This is Tie Wa family's secret manual
Why is HIS manual at your place? Speak
That's because...
I asked her to keep it for me ten years ago
Please don't misunderstand
Misunderstand? I know you're up to no good
I ask you, are you mine or his?
What are you talking about? I am yours of course
Mine?
You dare to say such a thing
Why haven't you told me about the manual?
You want me to be killed by Gu Gang?
Da Xiong, if you want to blame anyone, please blame me
She has done nothing wrong
Okay, since you want to stand up for her, I'll beat you
Da Xiong
Move away
Tie Wa
Da Xiong, you're way out of line
It's none of your business
I care not for your family's
lousy secret manual
Take it back
Da Xiong, I can take your beating and scolding
but not your insult on my ancestors
And for that I will not spare you
Fight if you have guts
Alright, if you insist
Let's go to the backyard
Da Xiong, stop fighting
you two grew up together
We're Chinese
Have you forgotten
how Ping Bai died?
Get lost
Tie Wa, do you want to destroy each other?
Don't forget who
killed your father!
Who did all this harm to us?
Tie Wa, go, please, I entreat you
don't come to our home again
Nine catties altogether
Again
Sir
They just brought it here
Is this red ginseng the cheapest?
I think it'd be good to buy it
Okay
Hey... I'll buy all your red ginseng
Thank you...
Go and thank master
Thank you
Sir, the business has been particularly good this year
and we've got so much stock
Sir
So much?
Let them be happy first
then kill them
Brother Tie
You're back
Anything the matter?
It's nothing
What's this?
The Thunder Fist manual dad left me
I followed uncle Wang to the mountain years back
and left it in Feng Niou's custody
You've seen her?
She's with Da Xiong and is doing quite well
You still think of her
When she handed the manual to me
Da Xiong saw it
He hit you?
It's nothing serious
but he misunderstood me
If that's the case
one day he would realize
I hope so
Let's go up the mountain
"Sheng Chang Shop"
I beg you, don't throw them
I beg of you
I beg you
Don't let them throw away my goods
Go to hell
It's your fault you haven't paid us protection money
Business has not been good
How's your kung fu?
It's only been a few days
Speed it up
Sister Die, you are still impatient as ever
I like to get things moving
same with practicing kung fu
It's best if training could be completed in 35 days
The we could leave the mountain
and seek the Japanese for revenge
Things could not be that simple
If I could complete my training in
a year or so I would be grateful
No, I can't wait
Why not?
Don't think the wrong way
I meant I need a year before I could seek the Japanese
No way
Then you want to leave at once?
Bring me downhill to have some fun
Why?
I fear you might get into trouble
I am just concerned for you
Concerned for me?
The Japanese are many
and Gu Gang's kung fu is deadly
You'll be in trouble if you met him
I am not afraid
You go back first
How about you?
I still have some things to do in town
If you don't let me go, I won't let you go too
Don't be naughty
If teacher knew, he'd blame me
If you don't let me go, I'll find a way myself
Please help me
Please, Sir
If you don't pay by tomorrow
I'll burn down your shop
I beg you, please...
Let's go...
What's the matter?
The Japanese wants protection money
How could we lead our lives?
Mom
Go to sleep, child
Dad, I'm hungry
If we don't pay, they'll take our daughter
Mom, save me
Dad
I told you to stop crying, you want to die?
What are you doing, bullying a child?
All you do is cry, damn
your crying brings bad fortune to our family
What's the use of scolding the child?
She's hungry
Money
This is my gambling money from the heaven
What? You still want to go gambling?
I now have money to gamble
You've lost all our money
You should set up a small business
Stop grumbling, it's not your money
Damn you
Who hit me?
Who dares hit you?
Where's the money?
It's here
You only know how to be decadent and depraved
This money is for our livelihood
You're all fools
Useless fools
The money's been stolen and you don't know it
It must be Tie Wa
Before he returned
nothing like this happened
I'll settle it with him
Sir
Why not challenge him to a fight and openly defeat him
then no one would dare to go against you
Good
Sister Die, how come you are here?
You're surprised, right?
Did teacher ask you to come?
No, I came myself
Then...
Is there anything to eat? I am hungry
Why do you keep staring at me?
You must have sneaked out
Even if you don't let me come, I have my way
Let's go
Where to?
Back to the mountain
No
Let's go
No way
You are in danger here
I'll take you back
I went through so much trouble to find you
now you want me to leave? No way
Please listen to me
When I fight with them again, I'll sure seek your help
Really?
Have I ever cheated you?
Why do you have to take me back?
I am going to settle a score with the Japanese
This is something of everyone's concern
I stayed in town to avenge my father
"Jixian School"
Tie Wa...
Who are you looking for?
Tie Wa
What's the matter?
Our master wants to have a duel with him
Give it to me
Tie Wa, if you are a hero
fight with me tomorrow in the ring
Gu Gang
Feng Niou, the mere thought of our misunderstanding plagues me
To resolve it I will fight on behalf of Tie Wa
Da Xiong
What about him?
Is there really no hope?
I can't die like this
I feel sorry for Tie Wa
Tell Tie Wa...
Calm down, this is not good for your health
So strange!
How come the person in the fight ring isn't Tie Wa?
Who delivered the challenge yesterday?
He did
It was me
Did you deliver the challenge personally to Tie Wa?
He wasn't at home, Da Xiong took it on his behalf
Don't worry, he can't escape
Do it as you say
Step down
Da Xiong is dead
Go
Stop
Damn kid, you still wanna play tough at your death?
Today if you don't tell us
where your hideout is
I'll skin you alive
Go to hell
Wait
Come, men
Yes
Bring Feng Niou in here
Yes
Go in
Tie Wa
What happened to you?
You can't touch her, go quickly
Don't be surprised
The best is yet to come
Put him down
Yes
Tie Wa
What do you want to do with him?
Nothing much, just maim his right arm
You want him to be a cripple?
Feng Niou, isn't this a pleasant sound?
Look how Tie Wa's hand burns
what a lovely scream
You are inhuman
The best is yet to come
Dislodge his ligaments
Tie Wa... let me go...
Let me go
For the sake of our friendship
I'll give you one minute
Tie Wa, gather your spirits
Tie Wa, it's me
Feng Niou, how come you're here?
I'll save you
Don't fall for his trap, go quickly
I'll save you, don't worry
Time's up
I beg you, as long as you free Tie Wa
I'll do anything you say
please give me a bit more time
The minute I promised you is up
You cruel thing, you're not human
Tie Wa...
Feng Niou...
Everything's ready
Good
Well, enjoy yourself
You're exceptionally beautiful tonight
Don't worry, I wouldn't eat you
Now Da Xiong is dead and Tie Wa is crippled
there's only me left
What do you want?
The bed is ready
My dream will come true tonight
What's the matter with you?
I wouldn't force you
Are you yielding to me?
Or should I just kill Tie Wa?
Choose
Well?
Let Tie Wa go and I'll do anything you say
You promise?
Come, men
Yes
Release Tie Wa
Have him tailed
and we'll find their hideout
Okay
Master is letting you go
Get lost
Master Gin, big trouble
What is it?
Old Lui said that Feng Niou has committed suicide
Incredible
Why would she do that?
Hush, don't let brother Tie hear this
She yielded to Gu Gang to save Tie Wa
Sister Die
I have to kill Gu Gang
Brother Tie
Sister Die, she died to save me
I must avenge her
You couldn't win even when you were not injured
not to mention you're wounded now
That's right, even if you have to seek revenge
wait till your wounds are healed
After that you have to practice real hard
to defeat Gu Gang
Brother Tie, don't feel sad, take it easy
Brother Tie, you've succeeded
Sir
Have you found out yet?
I know where they're hiding
Take some men at once and fix them
Yes
Where are your men hiding?
Here
No need to chase
Go quickly
Let them die in town
If they go back, they will bring their men here
Wait
Your kung fu is ready
Your punches and kicks have real power
You don't believe me?
Come, let's try
I'm sure one kick from you will break this tree in two
Go on
Are you alright?
It can't be that easy
You can't treat it as a tree
Imagine it is Gu Gang
You must assume this tree is your enemy
He destroyed your home and killed your father
He also crippled your hand
Go on
Brother Tie
You've succeeded
Where are you going?
Tell dad to fight back
Sell your ginseng to our Marutani
Sir, the ginseng merchant refused to sell us the goods
they are fighting outside
They don't look like locals
Send more men
Dad
Look for Gu Gang
You dare come here?
If you want to see who is better
it would be fair to fight in the ring
The Chinese you killed before, was it also in the ring?
You've also killed many of my men in town
Right, I'll kill you in the ring tomorrow
Come here
Sir
His kicks are lethal
We must keep him from attending the duel
Yes
Wait
Do it at night
"Jixian School"
Who is it?
Your leg is wounded
You won't be able to win tomorrow
As long as I live
I won't let Gu Gang get away so easily
Gu Gang
Why did you send someone to hurt me?
Stop talking nonsense
I want you dead
Brother Tie
I owe it all to your encouragement, I'd say
No, it's you who has saved the lives of us all!
