Please stop
I stole the chicken
You should take me to the authorities
We are far from the authorities
and if we take you there, you' enjoy
free meals and lodging; No way!
Then take me to the mayor
Everybody knows he is merciful
you might end up having a meal there
before being let off altogether!
You wish
lt looks like I wouldn't have chicken today
The chicken I had last night was skinny
and now l'm hungry again
Why are you all so soft?
He's been caught stealing many times
and always got away
We must beat him up this time
Chen Deng, the mayor said
you could have your own plot of land
for farming
So stop being a thief
But I don't know farming!
Then go and steal elsewhere
not here
No, l'm not going anywhere
this is the best place for me
No one beats a thief here
Actually you all like me, right?
Such a piece of trash
Stop this noise
none of you has a clue as to what to do with me
Why don't you tie me to a tree
for a day
maybe then I'll steal no more
Come, tie him up
I am a thief, tie me up
Gkay.
Don't let him get away
I knew we couldn't tie him down
Why did you tie him then?
Forget it. Ifwe get rid of him
who's gonna play with our kids in town?
Let's go
Stop
Sir, how far is it to the town?
Go on
Strange
why would there be horse carriages in this town?
Let's go
Wei Ji Silversmith
Inside
Don't
He's here
Go on, quick
Speak
What is it?
Speak
I'd like you to mend my earring
She broke it on purpose so as to see you
Too bad you aren't Bin Xiang
even if you break your neck
he wouldn't pity you
You want to die?
Go away
Naughty
What are you doing?
They dragged me here
Xi Hsin restaurant
I was drunk in the Peach Blossom Palace
Han Sui IVIui is a born beauty
I fall in love with her at first sight
Her brother been created a duke
and she is granted to live in a palace
You can't sit here forever
you have to find work
I have to work?
Though I am poor
I am still a master
Master my ass
IfI don't feed you, you'll go hungry
Look at you, good for nothing
except practising kung fu all day Use your strength
why don't you go and chop wood with IVIa Dao
That shouldn't be too difficult!
What's he?
Chop wood with him? What a joke
Strange, so many people come here
0h, I was
What do you think of this place?
We can stay here
You are from the inn
Yes
Many more people will be coming
get rid ofthose at the inn
There should be a head for this town
We are far from the authorities
so the people want me to head up the town
You'll soon have to manage a big issue
0ld man, just wait and see
Bring them over
Bring her over
Gentlemen
Let them go
What are they doing?
Listen, old man
keep your nose out of our business
They.
Let go, what's the hurry?
Take your time
Get a few man and carry the safe inside
Hurry
Why should we?
See this? I can do whatever I like
You can't be this barbaric
we never allow beating people here
It's an old rule?
That's right, one must talk reason
0ld rules must change
you must follow our rules now that we're here
You are bandits
Get a few men and carry the chest inside
You're right, we are bandits
Come
Go... hurry.
H urry.
A kung fu acrobat is staying in this room
he's been sick for days
Rubbish, get them all out
Take it away
Yes
You
Drag him out
Boss, I will do my best
to pay for my meals and lodging
Don't misunderstand, you are sick
even if you stayed for a year
we won't get rid of you
It's these people, they.
Well? Not leaving?
I am very sick
and a stranger in this place where could I go?
Back to your wife
Look, he doesn't want to leave
Let's make him leave then
That's right
Don't kill people
What are you doing here?
There's nothing for you to steal here
San Niang, I am just a petty thief
What, do you want to be a bandit now?
IVIa Dao, you said you ran into a gang
who whipped you when you're back
Yes
That gang is in the village
they took over the Yuen tavern and beat up uncle Yuen
A kung fu acrobat going through bad luck
He was hung by them at the entrance too
I think... more trouble is sure to follow
it's useless talking to him
I think... apart from you
he hasn't talked to anyone else
Let's go and see
Still want to look at him?
Everyone has closed their doors
What for?
It'd be nice if that could work
Wei Ji Silversmith
Take off your tunic and
fight with me
Nonsense, I needn't do that just to fight with you
I fear it's those people
Let me take a look
Don't let your trifle kung fu make you overconf dent
you'd still get killed, they are bandits after all!
You haven't yet seen that acrobatic performer
His kung fu is pretty good
except that he was really sick
If no one cuts him loose
Don't mess with them, you're out-numbered
Uncle Yuen said they might leave soon
so let's be patient
Where's he gone?
See?! Ifyou don't tap the shell
would a tortoise stick its head out?
What do you two want?
Don't hurt him
we need him to open the safe
Move
Gver here
Move
Move, hurry! You
Move it, what's there to see?
You'll be hung sooner or later
Gpen it at once
That's the safe of Dong Tou Town's bank
He knew that this kid should be able to open it
Stop talking and open it
You robbed it
What a grumbler!
What happened to the people in the bank?
You know them?
I tell you
the boss died a cruel death
There were two staff one escaped quickly
the other wanted to fight us
he's gone too
Enough, open it
Where are you going?
To get my tools
Return quickly
The lives of the townsfolk
depend on me
Brother Lin, some girls in this town
look pretty good
do you want some company?
No hurry, let's open this now
I'll untie you, go quickly
Kid, mind your own business
Sir, the bed is made
Don't dirty my bed
Don't mind him
What's the matter?
That acrobatic performer is still hung there
I saw Wei Min Hui attempting to cut him loose just now
and he got kicked by the bandit
who also drew a sword
Come on, go ahead
So what happened?
What could happen? 0nce a sword is pointed at you
you can do nothing; naturally you go away
Coward
Careful you don't spoil your bed
Sir, if you are not afraid ofthe bandits
go and untie the performer
Shutup
0thers can look down on me
but not a thief
Alright, watch me
Fang? You want to die?
I was justjoking
You won't be able to do it though you have guts
Right?
I wouldn't blame you even ifI die
otherwise even you would look down on me
Maybe I'll sleep here for the rest of my life
0nce again I'll be frank with you
I wasn't referring to Wei Min Hui as a coward
he's prepared to fight the bandits
and it was I who asked him to control himself
Get Ma Dao quickly
Chief, these bandits are lawless
what should we do?
They say they are waiting for someone
after which they'll be gone
There's nothing in our town that's
worth their stay
I thinkthese bandits
are capable ofanything
If they get out of control
then we
What could we do?
Who would expect to see such a thing
we're all decent people
and lead peaceful lives
I never saw such a scene
Uncle
Uncle Yuen, those men are bandits
they robbed and murdered
and forced me to open the safe
They killed people
It's often said that
the eyes of murderers become red when seeing people
and will keep on killing
Just think, if a murderer is caught
he'll be beheaded
Even if he killed ten people it's the same
That's right!
What to do then?
What should we do?
We should report to the authorities
I think they are still investigating in Dong Tou Town
That will take three days back and forth
With luck I may run into officials on the way
and then I can come back earlier
Uncle Yuen, I'll go and report to the authorities
No way, they want you to open the safe
what would happen if you're gone?
I won't work for the bandits so I must go
Uncle Yuen, bear with them
don't let them get out of hand
That kung fu acrobat, though an outsider
is a tough chap; He is very sick
so could you please plead with the bandit chief
to cut him loose
or he'll die before dawn
Guess I'll take the byway, I'll be back soon
Mayor.
You could move
How come the smith hasn't returned yet?
Look! This guy is against us
He is sick and to hang him like this
will kill him
So! You fear he might die from it
Hey hero, if you want to save him
you need to show us how good you are
you can'tjust take him like that
Run, and leave me
Hey, the big hero is saving someone
Leave quickly
Get away now
I am no worse a fighter than you
Well? I said before we're not
going to have a dull evening
Now we'll have some fun
Shut up and draw your sword
What happened? Where's Ma Dao & Master Fang?
They're fighting
Fighting with the bandits
Water.
Ifyou can make it, run quickly!
You... what do you want?
All you know is cowardice and running away
There are at least a hundred young men in town
and only a dozen odd bandits
What could we do? They have swords
You have swords too
It's not the same
Their swords are for killing
our knives arejust for domestic use
They can also be used to defend oneself & kill people
You fear the bandits
yet they'll show you no mercy
Chen Deng, help him inside
Listen you all, come out now
whoever hides at home will have his house burned
Come out now
Come out and watch, do you hear me?
Gentlemen, please move along this humble place
is no abode for great people like you
Please do us a favour!
Humble abode?
All places we've been to are humble and it'sjust here
that we encounter people daring to go against us!
TS
who would dare confront you?
No? What about that man hung over there?
Where is the smith?
There are two more men grabbed by us
Ask everyone to come and watch the fun
Hey, time for the show
Well? A great crowd, right?
Beat him
Sirs, please stop
I beg you
Please, even if he were made of iron
he wouldn't last under such torture
They asked for it
Yes, it's their fault
they shouldn't have upset you
Listen, old man, we could stop
but we have no other entertainment
No way
There are many beautiful girls around
get some for us
Don't
Help!
Da Niu
Ifthe ladies please us no one will die
Let this serve as an example if we don't get our way
Da Niu
Not bad!
Smile a bit
Come on
How could she?
You want to have fun
they can't satisfy you
Then whom should we turn to?
Me, naturally
There are twelve of us
0?
Why are you standing there like dummies?
Let's go
Dld man, if you still don't
hand over that smith tomorrow
there'll be more FUN
Let's go
San Niang
Mayor, you let them break the law?
What would you have me do?
Da Niu
Everybody saw it
There is just a handful of strong men
we could round up in the town
You learned kung fu as a kid
but lost badly
They're farmers, what could they do?
Even if you had a knife, could you kill?
I hope Wei Min Hui returns and they leave soon
San Niang
You are strong
You'll be okay by tomorrow
What about the men who saved me?
They suffered a bit but are okay now
But... San Niang is suffered
Ma Dao, I caused you suffering
C'mon, don't blame yourself
Don't blame yourself
No one has ever seen such a scene
Brother Ma has great strength for cutting wood
but not for killing
The acrobat
knows some kung fu
If he weren't that sick
he could have dealt with the bandits
San Niang has returned Hereafter don't judge
the townsfolk here merely by their looks!
San Niang
Shutup
She stands true to her character
Deep down if you've anything to say to her
now is the time
Damn
The bandits are urging uncle Yuen to give up Wei
Also, they've put up a pole in the middle of the street
and say that, whenever.
the shadow moves an inch, one person would be killed
What should we do?
What could we do?
You're a thiefand steal anyway
Run for your life!
Yes, l'm a thief, I
That 'Wei' fellow has escaped
You are wrong
Wei Min Hui has gone to alert the authorities
and could only return earliest tomorrow
According to the bandits' doing
many more must die
No way
Then let them kill until Wei gets back?
Why not?
It's their own choice, what can we do?
He says there are many
able folk in town
we ought to face the bandits!
Whoever runs will die fast
Where's that locksmith?
He... he escaped
Please give us more time
we'll get him back
You'd better go and find him
I have always been a man of my word
He'll be back real soon
You'd better go and find him
I have always kept my word
When the shadows moves an inch I'll kill one
Don't try to hide
I'll burn the place down
Ifyou want to kill someone, let it be me
and don't harm anyone else
I beg you
Your time will come, don't worry
Go in and make us some food
Yes
They started to kill
You
You want to die!
Precisely because everyone fears death
no one would escape death
You all want to go
Just the three of you?
The four of us
Chen Deng, I know you're afraid
Don't go, it's not for someone like you
What about me? I
Right, I'll go too
You'll understand in time why I
We can't offer our lives away like this
We must fight, and make our death meaningful
Just pretend I ain't sick
E
Are you from Dong Tou Town?
You are from the authorities
That's right
Please hurry
a hoard of bandits is in our town
Please hurry
Isthatso?
Let's go
Take me with you, sir
You know kung fu?
I trained for a few years
Good
This is a real problem if we can't open it
We shouldn't have been fooled by that kid last night
Don't be afraid! Brother Li has lured
the officials up north
Who would expect we are here?
Let's have some more fun here for a few days
Why were you so useless last night?
What about you?
There are two men inside, be careful
Dkay
Tonight I must get a girl
to keep you company
These are enjoyable times
not much different from being a king
Brother Li will meet up with us soon
Yes
Where's third and fourth brother?
They must have gone to have fun
Let's go
You
What are you doing here?
We killed two bandits
0h no!
You... have brought disaster to everyone
What are you doing here?
There's something
It's time again
Brother Ma
The bandits can be killed as long as we're willing
we can't sit and wait for death
Chen Deng, your kung fu is good, why.
You aren't too bad yourself!
However you lack experience
Chen Deng, your kung fu is good
and you have the experience
why let the bandits
have their way and hide yourself?
Coward!
I have my reasons, you wouldn't understand
Come
I underestimated him
As long as there are people
you could end up like this
Don't think too highly of yourself
If it weren't for your friend at the back
you country people
wouldn't have the nerve
Chen Deng? He is a thief
So you don't know his background either
Chen San, stop pretending and come out!
The well known Flying Thief Chen San
has now become a thief
You wouldn't realise how many
big crimes he has committed
and at the cost of how many lives
He is wanted by the authorities in many places
So he's come here to hide
It is precisely because I want to shed no more blood
that I am retiring
Since we are on the same side
why do you side with the villagers against us?
They are kind people
so I cannot let them suffer
Since you've exposed yourself
let's have some fun!
Alright, come on
Don't be pretentious here
Really? Let's see
who has the last laugh
Hit him
Ma Dao
Don't touch him
How is he?
Let's go
Fight
Harder.
Don't touch him
Brother Ma is dead
Hit him
Alright... please stop
At least leave someone alive!
Wei Min Hui will soon be here with officials
Uncle, why do we keep them?
They deserve to die
Right, they wouldn't survive
even at the hands ofthe authorities
Why? We aren't killers
Tie them to the horses and drag them along
Right
Tie them to the horses
Brother Wei is back
He's back
Uncle Yuen, what's the matter?
They are leading them, everyone
Brother Li
What is it?
Something unexpected came up
They are with the bandits
un
Dld man, you're down
on luck now
Brother Li, had you come later
we would have been dead
I must try my hands at
such a beauty in this town
Hey, keep him as a messenger
Brother Li, the officials are gone
they won't come here anymore
Has the safe been opened?
Not yet, come in and rest first
Move
Hurry
Why bolt like a rabbit
The bandit has a gun, you could be shot to death
Don't you see?
Even if we escaped
there are so many ofthem in the town
We're finished
E
Let me go
You want to die?
Iwas blind
to have led the bandits here
That's not your fault
The bandits were waiting for them anyway
I'll go and get the officials again
By that time everyone would be dead
It's not any safer here, let's go further
You are not from here
it wouldn't matter if you went further away
For us it's different, our homes are here
those who die are our family
I understand
but we must be alive
to think of ways to save our family
I wonder how things are in town?
What about Chen Deng?
Has he escaped?
He was with me
then he disappeared
Brother Li, there's money inside
If something bad happens, our efforts would be in vain
The locksmith is gone
Where could we find him?
That's easy
Brother Li, it's up to you
All the townsfolk are here
All waiting to die
Let's go
The old man is against us
Some people... just don't know what's good for them
please don't be angry
Ten of our men died, shouldn't I be angry?
Rubbish, where are they?
They.
They're all gone
I beg you, we're poor and
The locksmith is called Wei
right?
Send some men to get him back
If you can't
You see
there'll not be anyone living in this town
Get twenty men to find him here
Yes
We'll only wait till dawn, got that?
Come... drink
Cheers
Here, another bowl
Brother Li, I think you can't wait any longer
Guess your mom would thank you for that
I'll keep you company, leave him alone
Then let me kiss you
Get away
Let's go to bed
Drink more wine
Stay with me
Don't
Damn
What's up?
E
Ifsyou!
Look
I stole this from the bandit
With a gun too?
It's no use
Wow
The bandit chief said
if you don't go and open the safe for them
everyone dies
You have stolen the bullets from the bandits
their guns are useless now
Let's return at night and do away with them
He chased and fired on me
he still has bullets to kill us
If one of us could
hold up with the bandit chief
the other three could deal with the rest
This won't work, there are two bandit chiefs
and seven to eight bandits
We three can't handle them
Get all the gun powder from the bullets
Is that any use?
Along the way I happened to hear that
there's a lot of gold
in the safe
They want me to open the safe and
also want me to melt away the mark on the gold
Ifthere is fire
Ifit blows up, you'll die
Not too bad if I don't die alone
Give me more time
I'll get him back
A whole night is long enough
I beg you
l'll start with you
Someone's coming
Thank your lucky stars
The kid has come
Uncle
Ifyou want me to open the safe don't hurt me
What ifI do?
Get in
Move
Wei Min Hui is a good man and so young too
I have been around
and it's only here that I could meet real heroes
We'll be rich
Brother Li
Look at the mark on the gold
This will clearly
identify us
Dong Da Treasury
Kid, could you melt away the mark?
Sure, ifI had the tools and a fire
Go and prepare
Liang Shan, stay here and watch
I'll be outside
Dkay.
Money!
They really need him to melt the gold
we can't let him die alone
We fear not death, yet we must not die in vain
Where are the other two guys?
Don't ask
Ask them to come in
Is it okay?
It's okay if the place of origin isn't deciphered!
He's dead
Chen Deng
Chen Deng, you
I knew it'd be bad luck sooner or later
Its worst for a thief to see people
doing that sort ofthing
Now you're finished!
You're finished
They are... finished
Me too
I want to drink, bring the wine
Are you okay?
You
Third lady
Ultimately I have to keep the company
of the wood cutter
Master Fang
You
lam fine
There's only me left
