Leader
four enemies have infiltrated the Loyal Division
and are causing a ruckus there.
Our chief was afraid they wouldn't be able to withstand them
and asked me to find you
to ask for your help.
Who are these four enemies?
Three men and one woman.
One of the man talks very rudely.
Only four enemies
and you already need my help?
Looks like I can't go and drink now.
Younger Brother,
let's go and see what's happening there.
Yes, Brother!
Let's go!
Senior Bai,
the leader needs to discuss something with you,
please return immediately.
Where is our leader?
He's in a ship by the lake.
Please show me the way.
Yes
Brother Xiang, you're here as well?
Our Leader asked me to come. They said he had important mattes to discuss.
I don't know if there's anything important to discuss or not.
If he's asked the two of us to come,
don't tell me the meeting with the Xi Xia people
has run into problems?
We'll know when we get on the ship.
Please.
Seniors,
the Leader has been waiting for you for some time.
Please come on board the ship.
You go first.
Catch him!
Don't let him die!
Yes!
Bai Shi Jing!
Sit down!
Seniors.
My apologies.
Today is an important day for the Beggar Clan.
This is the only way I could think of
to prevent the two of you from doing something unnecessary.
I will ask for your forgiveness later.
I may be talking to you respectfully now,
but if you try to escape,
you'll want to know that this ship
is filled with explosives.
My servants are outside.
If they see anything fishy going on
they will light the fire and set off the explosives.
If that should happen,
don't blame me and
don't say our friendship isn't important to me.
Please excuse me.
Bastard!
Let me go!
Our Master
has gone to Luo Yang to meet with your leader,
so how come your leader is in Wu Xi?
Doesn't this mean that Master Mu Rong has wasted his time getting there?
So what now?
Your leader and Master Mu Rong
have made an appointment.
You're all the same.
This is too much,
this is too much!
Miss Wang?
You've also come?
Yes,
I've also come along.
All of you, how do you do?
Sir.
Hahaha, is this the leader of the Beggar Clan, Leader Qiao?
I'm called Bao Bu Tong,
I'm sure you've heard of me.
So you're the famous Bao Bu Tong
I've definitely heard of you.
How fortunate that I am able to meet you here today.
Not at all, not at all!
I'm not that famous!
I only have a bad reputation
because everyone know
I like to cause problems
and hurt others with my words.
Leader Qiao,
why did you come to Jiang Nan?
You're the guilty party this time.
Hahaha, we've always known that Bao Bu Tong is full of fart.
That's right.
I've heard that a smelly fart can be heard,
and a loud fart doesn't smell.
That fart just now was both loud and smelly.
What, did the four of you let one out?
You already know the four of us here,
yet you still dare to talk such rubbish?
What?
Do you want to fight now?
I love fighting!
Hahaha, no, you love talking,
the one who likes to fight is me.
Brother Fung,
you've come as well?
I must test your martial arts skill!
Brother Fung,
Brother Fung, are you alright?
Brother Fung!
You still want to fight?
Let's see what you're made of!
Brother Fung!
Senior Chen,
It would be good if you could cure the poison you've inflicted on Mister Fung.
This guy messed with us first,
also, his martial arts skill is formidable.
It would be unwise to save him.
True,
but we have yet to meet their master.
If we injure his followers even before I meet him,
this would seem inappropriate.
Let's be fair and gentlemanly first.
Deputy Ma was
died by the hand of Mu Rong Fu.
So it's one life for another.
Treat him first
we will discuss other matters later.
Yes sir.
Our leader is merciful,
this is the antidote!
Thank you, Senior Chen
Thank you, leader Qiao!
May I ask
how do I use this antidote?
Suck out all the poison from his wound,
then apply the antidote.
If the poison isn't sucked out completely,
the antidote won't work.
Thank you!
Wait.
What?
Women cannot do it.
Why not?
This poison cannot be sucked out by a woman.
Woman have Ying energy by nature,
and the poison is also Ying by nature.
This will make the poison even more dangerous.
Brother,
stop fighting first.
Come and save Brother Fung!
Let me suck out the poison from Brother Fung's wound.
Big Brother, let me do it?
Hurry up and apply the antidote
Hurry!
Brother Fung!
Thank you Young Master Duan!
Thank you
for saving my life!
This is just a small matter, no need to be so polite.
My life may not
mean much to you,
but it means a lot to me!
Here, I return your antidote.
Leader Qiao, is truly merciful.
He surely is the greatest leader in the martial world.
You have my admiration.
You praise me too much!
Today I've lost,
so I will admit defeat.
If we have a chance to meet again,
I will take the opportunity to test your skills again,
because today I no longer wish to fight you.
I'll be waiting for you.
The guy named Sung,
I want to test your skills and see what you're made of!
Brother Fung,
stop fighting!
You haven't even recovered yet!
Not fighting when there's fighting to be had
would be too much of a waste!
Prepare the Dog-Beating Formation!
Ready!
Brother Bao,
Brother Fung,
stop fighting now!
You're no match for this
martial arts formation!
I'll only fight for a little while.
I will stop
when I can't take it anymore.
Let me go!
Wait!
Stop.
That's the Dragon's Claw
Three Pearl-Stealing stance.
Brother Bao,
His elbow will hit your chest.
His left palm will hit your behind
His right hand will paralyse your nerve
This stance is called ' Pei Ran You Yu '!
Beautiful!
Younger Sis Wang,
What's the use of you telling me so late?
If you tell me earlier,
I can prepare myself to face the attack.
He's too fast!
I have to think first
and can't say it in time.
I admit defeat in this battle.
How humiliating.
The two of you,
please leave.
Leader Qiao,
my martial arts skill is nowhere near yours
but I'm still not satisfied.
I must ask you to help enlighten me.
Fine,
you must also help enlighten me then.
Is that the Green Dragon stance?
So this martial art
really does exist!
I am not that skilled
Mister Fung, please make fun of me if you will.
Leader Qiao is too humble.
Feng Bo Er
I will never reach your level in this lifetime.
See you.
Let's go.
Big Brother,
I've heard that the Master has gone to the Shaolin Temple.
There are many warriors there,
so there may be fighting.
I will go and take a look there first,
you take your time.
Please excuse me!
Let's go!
Our martial arts are no match for their.
This is humiliating.
Even if I practice for another 10 years
I will still lose.
I'm not fighting anymore!
We haven't avenged Deputy Leader Ma,
so why were you so hasty in letting them go?
Our reason for coming to Jiang Nan
is to avenge Deputy Leader Ma.
But these past few days
I have been thinking that
maybe Deputy Leader Ma
was not murdered by Mu Rong Fu.
Do you have any information to support this?
I'm just guessing.
Without any information,
how could our leader make such an assumption,
this I'd like to know.
The cause of Deputy Leader Ma's death was by his own martial art,
the Neck-Binding Hand stance.
At first I thought about Mu Rong Fu
and his "Render Against Oneself"
martial art.
I figured that only Mu Rong Fu could be the perpetrator
because no one else could cause Deputy Leader Ma
to die by his own martial art.
Right.
But these past few days, I've been thinking
that there must be something behind all this that I've missed.
Is leader Qiao saying because
he means to help them?
Where are the Chiefs of Administration and Discipline?
I have not seen them.
Zhang Quan Xiang,
Why isn't the Chief of Administration here yet?
I don't know.
Don't know?
Did you kill them?
No! No!
Chief Bai is a good man,
he isn't dead!
This has nothing to do with me!
It's not my doing!
Then who did it?
All of you,
what has happened
ever since I took over the clan?
Brotherhood is important to everyone here.
The reason why our clan has a high position in the martial world
isn't just because of our skills, but because of our brotherhood as well.
Now that you know what you've done wrong,
there's still time to make up for it.
Zhang Quan Xiang,
go and fetch the Chiefs of Administration
and Discipline.
If you do what I say,
I will lighten your punishment.
Everyone stay where you are!
Don't move until I order you to.
Brother Handsome,
what tricks are you up to this time?
I'll hit you!
Xiao Juan
How have you been
this past few years?
Have you been happy recently?
I've been alright.
You again!
Alright?
Xiao Juan,
I've been waiting for you for so long.
I'm glad I finally got a letter from you.
Elder Martial Brother,
Senior Yu asked us to come,
he says the Beggar Clan has a problem.
Doesn't matter what problem,
as long as you want me to solve it,
I will do so whole-heartedly.
Xiao Juan,
do you know?
These past few days I've been dreaming,
dreaming of the times we spent together,
practicing our martial arts.
I will not forget your face
for the rest of my life.
Xiao Juan,
wait up!
All of you,
I'm feeling very happy right now
because I've had a chance to meet a special friend.
His name is Mister Duan Yu,
we understand each other very well
and have become sworn blood brothers.
Younger Brother,
come here and
I will introduce these people to you.
They are the important figures in the Beggar Clan.
Chief Sung,
everyone here
respects him.
His martial arts
used to be quite famous in the martial world,
but that was before you were born.
I'm honoured to meet your acquaintance.
Senior Sung still looks so healthy even at this age,
I pay my respects to you.
Senior Xi,
is one of the Beggar Clan's most powerful masters.
For the past 10 years,
I have turned to him for guidance.
I name him both a teacher and a friend.
We have a very good relationship.
I watched Senior Xi fighting just now, he is great indeed.
I am full of admiration for you.
You don't have to say that.
Senior Ng!
Senior Ng
Leader, are you alright?
Where are the rebels!
Grab that boy,
I'm going to swallow him alive!
Come out here!
All of you, please come down,
I wish to announce something.
Yes.
You Four Seniors,
you sent people to imprison us
on a boat,
why did you do that?
This
We're best friends
who've been through a lot together,
we had no bad intentions.
Just treat me as your old friend
and excuse this mistake.
You would imprison someone you call your old friend,
on a boat?
Senior Sung
are you certain there were no bad intentions?
This...
Chuan Guan Ching,
we're like a family,
as close as if we were brothers.
Why did you have to be so hasty?
How can I stand before you and pretend nothing has happened?
You tricked me to board the ship
saying it was our leader's orders,
and giving false commands.
Do you know how grave your mistake is?
I'm of a lower class,
I wouldn't dare lie to Senior Bai.
All this... all this...
Did Chuan Guan Ching ask you to do this?
Yes or no?
Chuan Guan Ching asked you to give false orders to lure me onto the boat.
Did you know that the order was false?
The followers of the Beggar Clan
are all real man.
If you're brave enough to do it,
why aren't you brave enough to admit it?
That's right.
What Senior Bai said is right.
The orders that I gave to you,
I knew they were false.
I dare not say why I did what I did.
Madam,
we'll be arriving there shortly.
Alright,
sorry for being of so much trouble to you
along this journey.
Oh, it's no trouble at all.
Senior Xu asked me
to take good care of Madam along this journey.
Anyway, this has good to do with the Beggar Clan's reputation
and also the justice that exists in the martial world.
I wouldn't mind even if it caused my a lot of difficulty.
Thank you.
Brother Xiang,
who tricked you into boarding the ship?
The actions of a real man,
if they're right, they're right,
if they're wrong, they're wrong
if I'm brave enough to do it, I'm brave enough to admit it.
Leader,
we have discussed among ourselves
and have decided to dismiss you as the leader of the Beggar Clan.
The four of us
discussed this matter together.
We were afraid the Chiefs of Administration and Discipline
would disagree,
and that's why we thought of a way to imprison them.
Today is your lucky day,
we will let you punish us.
I have been with the clan for 30 years.
Everyone here knows
that I'm not the kind who is afraid of dying.
The four of you,
have rebelled against our leader
and broken the laws of the Beggar Clan.
Followers of the Beggar Clan,
bind them!
Yes!
Cowards, cowards!
We joined together to oppose them
so that we would not be easily defeated.
But you're all
so afraid of Qiao Feng.
All of you,
these past few years,
the reputation of our clan has been heightened
because of leader Qiao's many great deeds.
Leader Qiao has always been fair,
and is not biased.
We all love him,
yet there are still those who dare to rebel!
Chuan Guan Ching,
do you understand your crime?
Chuan Guan Ching, Head of the Chuan Branch,
Have I, Qiao Feng
done something wrong
to my followers.
Please be honest with me
and don't hide anything
just because I am the leader of this clan.
Your wrong doing towards your followers
hasn't been done yet.
But you will do it soon.
What utter nonsense.
Leader Qiao has fulfilled his responsibilities admirably,
but because of some rumour you've heard,
a rumour that you've spread around,
you want to rebel against him.
Chuan Guan Ching, why don't you just commit suicide.
Senior Bai, please be calm.
Give the Chief of the Chuan Branch a chance
to explain,
along with Senior Sung,
Senior Xi dan everyone else who opposes me.
Nobody's perfect,
so tell me, what have I done wrong?
Please show me my mistake.
Leader,
I'm guilty for wanting to kill you.
I will cut off my own head
for you later
if this is your command.
Chuan Guan Ching,
tell me.
Deputy Leader Ma was brutally killed.
I believe that this was ordered by Qiao Feng.
What?
You hated Deputy Leader Ma.
You felt that, as long as he was around,
your position as leader would never be stable.
That's a lie.
Even though I wasn't very close to Deputy Leader Ma,
I would never do anything to harm him.
With the Gods
as my witness,
if I, Qiao Feng, had any intention to harm Deputy Leader Ma,
I am willing to be chastised and insulted by everyone everywhere for the rest of my life.
We came here to take revenge on Mu Rong Fu,
yet you mix freely with our enemies,
time and time again.
These three are relatives of Mu Rong,
yet you protect them.
That man is a friend of Mu Rong,
yet you make him your blood brother.
Not at all, not at all!
I have never met Mu Rong Fu.
And these three women
are not his relatives.
Not at all, not at all!
Bao Bu Tong
is also a follower of Mu Rong Fu,
as is Fung Bo Er.
Just now
if you hadn't protected them,
they would be dead by now.
Everyone here
saw this.
So what sort of excuse
do you have for your actions now?
You're right, I did protect these three ladies.
This is because I wanted to
maintain the reputation of the Beggar Clan.
I don't want other heroes talking rubbish
behind our backs
and saying that the Beggar Clan bullied these gentle ladies.
For hundreds of years, the Beggar Clan
has been well-respected by society.
We didn't gain this reputation because of our numbers
and powerful martial arts,
but because of our commitment to help people
and enforce justice.
If the four of you
don't care about this reputation, then so be it.
But the rest of the clan treasure this reputation.
Leader,
it's pointless to waste your time talking to
this wretch Chuan Guan Ching.
Just sentence him to death according to the clan's laws.
The fact that Chuan Guan Ching was able to rally so much support
makes me believe that he had a lot of other reasons for doing this.
All of you,
if there's anything
that I didn't do right.
Please show me.
Leader Qiao,
I don't have the ability to judge
what type of person you are.
Why don't you just kill me and be done with it.
Senior Ng,
what have I done wrong?
This
has a huge impact on the Beggar Clan.
If this matter were to be publicly known
the reputation of the Beggar Clan
would not remain intact.
The fact is, we wanted to kill you.
Why?
Is it because I save
Mu Rong's followers?
You think I'm in league with them?
But don't forget,
you rebelled against me first,
and I save them after that.
My friends,
on my way here,
I met a good man.
Give way!
No you give way!
You give way first!
Fine.
We've already wasted two hours.
Even if we wasted another four hours,
I still wouldn't give you the right of way.
As long as you can stand the smell of feces,
we'll just have to spend our time like this.
Great.
Baik, baiknya,
You're holding two pails of feces.
If you're not afraid of getting tired,
then we can spend our time like this.
You!
Brother,
who do think has won
this test of patience?
You've won.
Now why don't you hold these pails of feces
while I just stand here,
and see who wins?
That makes sense!
Give me those!
Take them!
What are you doing?
I'll just hold them like this,
and I won't change hands.
We'll spend our time like this.
Whoever loses,
must drink up all this feces.
This is fun!
This person was sprayed with feces by the villager,
and if he wanted to kill the villager
it would have been a simple task.
But he didn't do it.
I saw this occurrence
with my very own eyes.
So tell me,
would you say this man is a real man!
Not bad, he's a real man indeed!
But you don't know his name.
If we did, then we would spread the word,
that there is such a noble spirit in the martial world.
Senior Chen,
this person fought with you just now
and his hand was stung by your poisonous scorpions.
That was Fung Bo Er?
Yes indeed.
Senior Chen,
the Beggar Clan
is a large clan.
And you're an
important member of this clan.
Your title and status
are higher than Fung Bo Er.
If Fung Bo Er was able to stand
being teased and insulted,
would the important members of our clan
be able to do the same?
Your teachings are correct, I admit my mistake.
Fung Bo Er knows how to separate right from wrong,
Bao Bu Tong is carefree and stylish.
And these three ladies are gentle and demure.
They aren't just Mu Rong Fu's followers
but his relatives.
If that's the case, let's make an assumption.
All of you,
please calm yourselves
and think rationally.
The people who follow Mu Rong Fu
are all worthy people,
so do you think he is an immoral,
despicable and shameless person?
The leader's words make sense!
Leader, in your opinion,
you're sure that Mu Rong Fu
didn't murder Deputy Leader Ma?
Who the real murderer is,
I haven't been able to discern.
But if I investigate and find out that it truly is the work of Mu Rong Fu,
then I, Qiao Feng, will capture him
and avenge Deputy Leader Ma.
But
if I make a wild guess
and accidentally kill a good man
all while the real murderer is living free
and laughing at our incompetence,
then wouldn't it be
that we've mistakenly killed a good man
and tainted the reputation of the Beggar Clan?
If that happens, wouldn't the followers of the Beggar Clan
be too ashamed to face the rest of the martial world?
Leader,
we rebelled against you
because we believed a rumour.
Now that I think about it,
we were really foolish.
Senior Bai,
Please punish us
according to the laws of the clan,
and let us commit suicide.
Followers,
fetch the ceremonial swords.
Yes sir!
These four seniors
believed a rumour
and tried to cause a rebellion,
thus throwing our clan into chaos.
They are sentenced to die by ceremonial suicide using one sword.
Chuan Guan Ching, Head of the Chuan Branch,
for spreading false rumours and causing an upheaval,
will be sentenced to die by committing suicide with nine swords.
Followers who rebelled
will also be punished.
After investigations are conducted,
they will also be punished accordingly.
Leader,
I wronged you
and gladly accept my punishment.
When I'm dead,
please pardon Senior Ng
Clan followers,
release my bonds.
Wait
Leader,
is it because my sins are too numerous
that you would stop me from committing suicide?
15 years ago,
when the Qi Dan attacked Yan Gate.
Senior Sung, upon receiving this information
rode day and night,
not stopping to eat or drink,
to carry this news to us.
He was badly wounded
and coughing blood.
In the end, through his efforts, we managed to eliminate the Qi Dan.
He has indeed done many great deeds in service to the country!
Discipline Chief,
Senior Sung
has done many great deeds,
so is there any way we could be more lenient
and give him a chance to redeem himself?
Leader, it is reasonable for you
to plead on Senior Sung's behalf.
But our clan has a law, a law that says;
"Those who sin cannot be forgiven
even if he has been of service to the clan"
Leader, your pleading is against the laws of our clan.
We cannot break the law, no matter what.
What the Discipline Chief has said
is entirely true.
As high-ranking members of the clan,
we have all done great deeds in service of the country.
If everyone could be forgiven because of their great deeds,
then wouldn't everyone have the freedom to do wrong?
Leader,
please let me kill myself.
Let it be then.
I planned to kill you,
so this punishment is just.
Please
go through with my punishment.
Leader!
Leader Qiao, don't!
Don't do it!
Senior Bai,
the clan's law states
that if a clan member breaks the law, he cannot be forgiven.
If the leader wants to forgive him,
then he must pay for their sins with his own blood.
Am I correct?
Yes, there is such a law,
but using your own blood to pay for their sins;
is this worth it?
As long as it's not against the laws of the clan,
then it is fine.
Some time ago,
Leader Wang was kidnapped by the Qi Dan,
thus forcing us to surrender to them.
Senior Xi disguised himself as Leader Wang,
to willingly die in his place,
and allowed Leader Wang to escape.
He performed a great service for our clan, and our country.
I must pay for his sins.
Leader!
Leader Qiao!
I'm not very close to you,
and have often offended you.
I am not worthy of your blood.
Senior Chen,
I am an unrefined person.
I prefer to spend time drinking
and eating meat
with my followers.
Everyone knows what sort of disposition I have.
If you think
that I would want to eliminate you and Deputy Leader Ma,
then you are mistaken.
You and Deputy Leader Ma,
don't drink much,
and this is your virtue.
I cannot compare myself to you.
A few years back,
the Qi Dan attacked us
but they were beaten continuously
and finally returned home in disgrace
thus averting disaster for Sung.
The man who killed the Lieutenant General of the Qi Dan, Ye Li Bu Lu
was Senior Chen!
