Help!
LEGEND OF THE WOLF
Are you still looking for him?
Yes.
You still won't change your mind?
Right.
Can't I satisfy you just the same?
Ben, if you have to choose between me and him,
who will it be?
I'll call you later. Bye!
Are you trying to mess with me?!
I don't believe I can't beat you!
I've got you!
Head towards northeast and you will find justice.
23:55. Don't be late.
There will be thunder.
I can solve your problems, but not their consequences.
Wolf.
Straight towards the northeast?
That's Central!
Justice... justice...
The courthouse!
The Legislative Council!
Thunder
Mr. Chan, no need to be so serious.
I'll be waiting for you anyway, even if you're late.
Don't you want to know why I wanted to see you?
Why?
I'm in a good mood, that's why!
I thought you'd ask me about...
his sudden disappearance years ago.
Maybe it's just like what the legend said.
He was seriously hurt, so he wanted to get away for a while.
People also said that he got tired of the business, so he wanted out.
All these rumors. Who knows which one of them is true?
Now one should believe in rumors like that!
So guess again!
Forget it! Just tell me. What was the reason?
Vacation!
Old people need to take a break too, young man.
Really?
Hello... hold on.
I think She's looking for you.
I know.
I've told you! I'll call you after I finish working!
It's useless for you to keep calling me!
Anyway, I'll call you later, OK?
That's it then!
Arguing with your girlfriend?
Judging by her voice, she must be the innocent type.
It's hard to find such an innocent girl in Hong Kong nowadays.
It's the clarity of the call, that's all.
I hate small phones!
I've lost so many of them!
That's why I only carry a pager now.
I can return a call whenever I feel like it.
I don't give a shit...
Hey, old man, does he like to talk as much as you do?
You'll find out.
By the way, I haven't even introduced myself!
Everyone calls me Uncle Wai.
I've been working with him for ages.
We are invincible!
I just want to look for him. I don't care about anything else!
How much longer do we have to walk?
Almost there.
Well, you know the rule, right?
You get help from him, you face the consequences.
I know! I'm well prepared.
What do you want him to do then?
I'll tell him myself.
I hope it won't be an easy job.
Otherwise,
anyone else could handle it.
And, he's not going to be happy.
And if he's not happy, then we'll be in deep shit.
Why don't you worry about if...
he can handle it instead?
He can't?
What do you want him to do, fly?
He definitely can't do that!
Here we are, kid.
That's him?!
He's used to taking naps at this time.
So he can dream a little bit
and go back to his memory.
You know how it is. To an old guy,
the past is everything.
But mine is an urgent matter!
Just sit down and chat for a while.
Call me Ben.
Call me Uncle Wai.
Sit down.
Relax!
So that's how he looks in real life!
What's wrong with that?
He's much older than I thought.
That's just the way it is. No matter how invincible you are,
you just can't fight old age, sickness, and death.
It depends.
What do you mean, it depends?!
I can accept it!
What's wrong?
Not everyone can afford it.
Those who are strong-minded won't fail so easily.
Winning or losing is not a simple matter.
It's not like gambling in a casino.
The winner takes all,
and it's either win or lose.
It doesn't matter if you win or lose as long as you live.
If you have money,
you might as well keep it in your pocket!
Since you're old,
I won't blame you for thinking like that.
Me neither, since you're not old enough to share my views.
Listen to me, young man.
Even if you are rich, you don't have to place it all on one bet.
What? Did you lose something?
It must be that small cell phone you've got.
I've said it before. You can easily lose such a small cell phone.
Well? Do you want to go back to the car and look for it?
No need. No one will be calling me now.
I'll retrieve it when we go back.
Now, where was I?
Right, young man. You're still young.
When you're as old as me and him, then
you'll realize that it's not necessary to win all the time.
Many times, although you win,
you have to pay much more than you expected.
He is old.
Don't get mad. If he had kicked you, then
you would have swallowed the whole cigarette.
And, your face would've been smashed,
and your mom won't even recognize you.
Hell, even you wouldn't be able to recognize yourself!
I was as arrogant as you are when I first met him...
Merciful Buddha Goddess, please hear our prayers.
Please keep us away from the bandits and the war
so that we will live in peace.
A sacrificial Ceremony will be held for you in gratitude.
Where was I again?
Right. Merciful Buddha Goddess,
please also grant our villagers peace and harmony
and good health and relationships to all of them boys.
Worse of luck to the families...
No, I mean, best of luck to the families!
And prosperous living for all of us.
Remind Chun that it's an eye for an eye.
If someone beats him up, then he should stab him in return.
And, I hope to have a child at old age.
And please let Wai shave his head bald soon.
Don't let him infect everyone else in the village with head lice.
And he should no longer say cuss words.
Also, Hippo should never steal food again.
Even if he still does, he wouldn't be caught red-handed.
Big Mouth will not just think about women anymore
and offend all the bitches in our Village.
He should go fool around at other villages instead.
Also, Little Bun would grow up sooner
so that she will stop hanging out with the boys.
That's right, kick his dick!
What took you four so long to take him down?! Useless!
You guys would've been in deep shit if he was someone else!
You really need Buddha Goddess' blessing!
Give me back the Chicken! What are you looking at?!
You don't have to do that. After all, we are neighbors.
Forget it. You've gone too far. You even have a knife!
That's right! How dare you?!
It happens every time! You think I'm a fool or what?!
Fool?! Tell me, Hippo. Who stole my rice last time, huh?
Chun and I ate it.
Don't frame me! It was you and Hoi!
We've agreed not to say a word about this!
How dare you betray me?!
Bring back the pig head you stole from the last Sacrifice!
Oh, so it's you who stole the pig head!
How could you even eat that stinky pig head?!
Where did you get the rice?
That's none of your business!
Who do you think is in charge here now?
YOU!
That's fine then!
One chicken, five kilos of rice, and three bottles of wine.
Everyone needs to Contribute!
Who do you think you are?!
Yeah!
There's no need for that. After all, we are family.
He looks like a Stranger. Haven't seen him before.
Maybe he's from another village?
I like his clothes.
He has light skin. He must be from a rich family.
Maybe he's a Soldier on the run?
He wouldn't be walking so slowly if he is!
His blade is so shiny!
Shiny? Maybe he uses it to chop wood?
He's carrying a big bag.
Maybe he's a postman?
More like a bandit.
Have you even seen a bandit?
Have you actually seen one before, Brother Wai?
I've seen everything!
You guys are a bunch of ignorant chickens!
Well, why don't you go and ask him then?!
Go, go!
Go, Brother Wai. Don't be scared!
What is it, pal?
Excuse me, but is there a Seven Saints Temple around here?
We have all kinds of temples around here.
You can visit all of them, as long as you have money.
Just walk towards the beach on your way out of the Village.
Thanks.
Hi
Get back here, kid!
Out Of my Way!
Brother Wai! Why did he give you money?
That's right. Why?
He wants me to lead his way, so he paid me.
Really?! You're kidding!
I wanna go too!
Do you know where Dragon's Cave is?
You know how to get there?
Anyway, I'll follow him,
and I'll give you guys a share when I come back.
Little Bun, wipe off the sweat for Brother Wai now!
Brother Wai, eat this when you're hungry on the road.
Nice weather today. Too bad our trails are a different story.
This is not a safe place.
It's dangerous for you to wander here on your own.
I'll accept the money as either security fee or escort fee.
I'm telling you. No one knows about this route except me.
And I ain't lying.
You all right, buddy?
Don't tell me you want me to carry you now!
Short cuts! No bandits here. Come on!
Careful, careful...
There's another short out, but I don't think you can handle it.
I'll show you.
We're almost there. This way!
Pal, it's your lucky day
for you to have met me!
Not only am I a good tour guide,
I know where the sceneries are too!
It's like a feast for the... whatever.
Thank you.
Half a mile more from here and we'll be there.
Do you need to rest? I don't...
But, if you wanna...
Bandits?!
Don't worry. They're just small potatoes.
That's the bastard!
Give me back my rice!
What?! I've got nothing!
Are you giving me back or not?
No.
But I can give you my underwear!
Kick his ass!
Go to hell!
No...I don't need your help!
At that moment, I started hitting them left and right!
I used my IeftSw/ng/ng ñstand my rig htSfra/ght punches.
They almost died!
You don't believe me?
Sure! 100%!
To the point that I thought you're the hero!
You've been bluffing for almost an hour now.
So what exactly did he do? Tell me!
Have you seen a real bloodbath?
Just listen.
Here. Right here!
Kill him. Kill him!
Sorry. I didn't realize you're not just anybody.
Were they your foes too?
They're from the neighboring Village.
They always come and bully the kids and the elderly
when I'm not around.
I kick their asses whenever I see them.
Here we are. The Seven Saints Temple.
Gorgeous in its splendor, isn't it?
It was built back when my great grandfather was the general.
This is the Seven Saints Temple?
Yup. It's the war, you know.
There used to be a statue here.
People came to scrap the gold off it and ended up destroying it.
Many people used to come here to worship.
Even the great Ching general, Li Lin-ying...
No, wait. Li was an eunuch!
Anyway, some General Li came here too.
You know how it is in times of war.
Even the utensil for burning the incenses was gone.
So, hero, why did you come here?
Don't go!
Run! We'll be in trouble if we're caught!
How dare you steal, kid? Stop!
Jump!
I can't!
Don't be scared. Hurry!
Stop! You're going to regret this!
Hurry!
Are you all right?
My foot hurts!
Don't cry.
You call this Sunset?! The sun is still so damn hot!
Hey, wait!
Go away! Don't come over!
Calm down...calm down...
I just want some water.
Have some water, hero.
Hey, if you have anything you can't solve, just let me know.
Since you saved my life, I will help you.
And I'll even give you a 50% discount.
What's your name?
I don't remember.
What was your occupation?
I don't remember either.
You can't remember anything? You've lost your memory then.
I've never met someone who has amnesia. This is great!
Do you at least remember how you lost your memory?
I only remember that I was once a soldier, and I got shot.
Those damn Japanese bastards again!
Their bullets almost make me lose my memory too!
I don't mind telling you.
I am an orphan.
Luckily, all the villagers raised me.
But then again, I did many things that win their hearts too.
And today, I am now a grown up man...
Those damn Japs!
You might have lost your memory, but I haven't.
I remember that I never had enough to eat.
I only remember that I need to wait for a woman.
A woman? Who is she?
I'm sure you don't remember her name.
This is tough!
Does she have any characteristics?
She is very nice, very pure.
These damn mosquitoes must be from Japan too!
They almost sucked all my blood dry!
Right...
It's so dark and damp here!
What kind of a Seven Saints Temple is this?
It's hot in the day and filled with mosquitoes at night!
But I can't go back to the Village.
And I was attacked by all those bandits!
Even a Stranger wanted me dead!
What bad luck I am having!
Come in here without making a noise again and I'll kill you.
I thought you're from the gang in the woods.
Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
In fact, this is not your fault.
With the way I sneaked in here, anyone would've been scared.
Especially after that great battle yesterday.
They're no bandits, so you better be careful.
That's what I thought too. It's impossible to have
so many bandits come after me.
Maybe they were after you.
But, since you're so good with your blade,
you won't be afraid of them, right?
If you think you owe me something, then
why don't you just teach me some stances?
It's not just for my own sake.
I can also help you out if you're in danger.
You won't say no to that, right?
What do you want to learn?
The way of the blade!
Only a hundred days to learn the blade
At least that's what the people said.
It's much quicker to learn.
And, unlike the sword, you only have to sharpen one side.
But still, a hundred days are too long. Do you have any...
2-day course?
Do you know what a blade is used for?
Chopping, cutting, slicing, Cooking...
No! It's used for killing!
I know that too.
A blade is used to separate things.
That's the kind of simple but powerful stance I want to learn.
Well, don't just stare at me! Say something.
Simple?! No blade stances can ever be simple yet powerful.
Then you can teach me some powerful yet simple stances instead.
Have you heard of the3 open, 3 hidden, and 3 cunning stances?
And the3 cunning stances are also divided
into true and fake stances. Then there are the3 covered stances
which are also divided...
That's too complicated for me! Anything simpler?
Better yet, something that I can just learn in one go.
Hold up that blade.
I'm not like you. Your blade is so sharp!
It's the blade cutting the woods, and not you using it to cut woods.
I was just warming up!
Now you can say I used it to cut woods.
But you didn't cut it with your heart.
I used my heart! I even used my lungs!
Fine, if you don't want to teach me, just say so!
No need to give me all that bullshit!
You could've even said I am the blade and the blade is me!
That's the point.
I want to learn your way of the blade.
My blade is just for chopping woods.
Then what about the blade you used in the woods?
That's the blade for killing.
That's exactly what I want to learn, killing.
It takes much more than using the blade to kill.
You must also have the will to kill.
Once you have the will to kill,
it no longer matters whether you have a blade or not.
Killing does not depend on the blade.
It depends on the man.
You can keep the blade.
In other words, it depends on your heart.
Whether you have a blade or not doesn't matter.
If you have the hearts to cut wood...
Who you are defines what blade you use.
Tell me, are there any inner kung fu for this too?
If there are, then just pass them on to me and I'll leave you alone.
Endless illusions, learning the truths from falsehood.
Learning the trulhs from falsehood? I don't buy that!
Theories like that are so outdated.
When you use your blade, you must be fast, cruel, and precise.
The fastest speed,
the cruelest heart,
and the precision to hit your target.
Just like real life.
With all these three things and a combative heart,
it'll be up to you to see if you can be a top killer!
God doesn't decide that.
Win or lose, truth or falsehood...
It's actually very simple.
Many people can't see it, but they also don't want to face it.
So they just used some lousy theories to explain everything.
And, the more complicated and senseless they are, the better.
In fact, win or lose, truth or falsehood...
Whether you have it or not makes no difference.
The airport is about to be relocated.
I remember when I first came here, I had nothing.
And people here led a happy life.
Now, there is the new airport, and the new suspension bridge.
And people can have anything they want.
But they're no longer happy.
When things get old, then they'll need to be replaced.
How can there be progress if nothing gets replaced?
But new things will get old soon too.
How can I help you, Ben?
I want you to kill someone.
And, will you get what you want once that...
person is dead?
Yes.
How do you want him killed?
My Way?
If that's the case,
then I can tell you a story as reference.
Even though it may have nothing to do with you.
Still, please pay attention.
I believe it would solve your problem.
This blade here? You might think it's useless if you take it,
but it'll be so much more useful once...
it's in his hands...
Shut up!
I gave him half of my Chicken and this is what he got?!
What the hell is this?!
Anyway, once it's in his hands, he can kill anything.
This is indeed an invincible blade.
You just won't understand.
Shut up!
You guys are so useless!
You keep your mouths shut when the shit hits the fan.
Then once it's over, you can't stop talking!
Can't you see that we're going to starve to death soon?!
How heartless of you!
How can you ask the elders to go?!
No!
If you won't go...
It's not that I won't go. I can't go.
Do you understand?
Why not? You're just making an excuse!
Don't you get it? He's really invincible!
If you won't go,
then just share the money among us.
Right! Share the money!
He really can fight!
Fine, since you won't go, we'll all go together!
We're not afraid of him!
Even the four of you combined are no match for him!
He can kick all of your asses with just one move!
I don't believe it
Right, let's all go together. I'm not afraid of him!
Are we really going?
Of course!
Right, we're not afraid of him!
I told you. He could've killed you all!
Is he dead?
Kid! Kid!
Kid, help! Open the door!
Help, kid! Open the door!
Open the door, kid! Help!
Help!
Go to hell!
Man-hin?!
He doesn't remember a thing.
Man-hin.
The four of us are saved, thanks to brother Fung.
Otherwise we would've died under that man with the chains.
Be quiet! He's awake!
He's waking up!
Don't worry, brother Fung.
You've killed your enemies.
Shut up, all of you!
Give brother Fung some peace and quiet!
How are you, Man-hin?
Man-hin... Man-hin... are you all right?
Man-hin...
Man-hin, it's me. Wai-yee!
No matter what, as long as you're alive,
I'll be by your side.
Have you seen Man-hin?
I think he's over there.
Have you seen Man-hin?
Over there.
You better ask him.
I saw him walking over there.
Sis, where are you going?
Sis...
Look. The sky is so pretty.
But it looks like it's going to rain.
It's all right. The sky will be even prettier after the rain.
I haven't watched the sky in peace for so long.
- Are you tired? - Am I bothering you?
- No. - No.
Are you feeling pain anywhere?
Where? Where's the pain?
No, I'm just hungry.
I'll go and make you some noodles.
No need.
Thank you for taking care of me day and night.
Am I any different?
You're a bit darker now, and thinner too.
So I was fat and white before?
Not really. Actually, you haven't changed much.
How was I before exactly?
What about me? Tell me what you think about me now.
Good...You're so nice to me...
And...
What else?
You're much prettier than I thought.
That tells me you have forgotten about me.
I remember...
I remember that I have to wait for you.
But I don't remember what it's for.
You must be starving. I'll make you some noodles.
Wai-yee! I was hoping I would
remember who I was after seeing you.
I have the same nightmare every night.
I really want to know what happened,
but I just can't remember.
I've really forgotten everything.
I'm sorry!
I hope you'll understand.
You've been out here for a long time, brother. Time to eat.
Thank you for saving me.
You're too kind. You saved me once too.
That's why I've prepared a feast to thank you.
Sis, join us. We have lots of food.
I'll help you.
Come on, brother.
Here's to the reunion of Mr. and Mrs. Fung!
Cheers!
Wai-yee, since you grew up with him together,
you two must've been really close.
That's right. Man-hin really took care of me.
So was his family.
I came from a poor family.
Whenever Man-hin's grandmother sewed new clothes,
he would ask her to make one for me too.
That's why we always wore the same clothes back then,
and the villagers would tease us and say we're a couple.
After his grandmother died,
Man-hin began making clothes for me.
And he even came over to my house to help out.
After my father passed away,
he'd come and do the farming chores for me.
My mother treated him almost as if he's her son-in-law.
I've heard that brother Fung was a soldier.
By the way, brother Fung, can a soldier make lots of money?
Of course!
A soldier's life is tough. He has to Clean, and he has to cook.
Don't you agree?
But Aunt San, soldiers have to kill people too!
Even if they kill, Big Mouth, they only kill bad people, right?
Brother Fung has killed so many Japanese bastards.
Too bad you're old now, or you would've been
raped by them if they saw you 10 years ago!
You and your dirty mouth!
Making it rich or not doesn't matter.
We can all learn from Man-hin and his heroics.
He's been sending me letters and money in recent years
and has asked me to use his money to help the villagers.
He even told me that, once the war ends, the good days will soon be here.
No wonder you had to wait for him to come back.
What's the use?! He's back all right,
but he can't remember a thing!
What's with you and your bullshit?!
Just eat your rice!
Shut up and eat or I'll kick your ass!
It's pouring!
I'm going to tell brother Fung to come back.
Shut up! Just come back here!
Stop pushing me!
Thanks.
Tell me. What was I like before?
You were recruited into the army when the war started.
And we agreed that,
no matter what happens, as long as we're still alive,
we'll wait for each other at the temple
until we meet again.
Were we married?
Do you still remember that night?
You are the only man in my life...
Wai-yee! Wai-yee!
Don't run away!
Wai-yee, listen to me!
Wai-yee...
Wai-yee, are you all right?
Go away! Leave me alone!
Sorry, but I really can't remember a thing.
I have nightmares about this every night!
I thought I would remember who I was after seeing you,
but I just couldn't!
I keep on forcing myself to remember.
I even tried bumping my head against the wall!
Do you know how painful this is for me?
Now... Now I have nothing!
You're so selfish! All you care about is yourself!
Tell me. Where have you been these past four years?!
I waited for you for 4 years and not even a letter from you!
My mother died during the war.
There's nothing left for me too...
You're the only one I've got!
If I can't come back to see you, what will you do?
I will tell myself that you've never left me.
When we were kids, we would always come here
and watch the sunrise together.
And you were always bewildered by it.
You told me, I will go there one day.
And what did you say?
I said, I'll follow you wherever you go.
Wav-yee, why don't we just stay here and
live with the villagers in peace?
I'll follow you wherever you go.
You know what, Man-yin? I've learned how to make clothes.
The blade is in my heart
What did you guys do to the wood?
I'm going to ask brother Fung to teach me.
Little Bun, Little Bun! Don't be so anxious!
I'm telling you. She has a crush on him!
She must have fallen for that brother Fung!
Bandits! Run for your lives!
' Help me! - Run!
Who among you knows where Fung Man-hin is?
Whoever that tells me will not be killed.
I don't think any one of you wants to die, right?
Brother Wai, what should we do?
Don't kill us, sir! We really don't know!
I'm begging you. Please, don't kill us!
Garbage!
Please, just let us go.
I don't know! Don't kill me!
Kill them all!
Don't let any one of them live!
Get out of here, brother Wai! Don't worry about me.
Man-hin! Man-hin!
Help me, Man-hin! Man-hin!
Help me! Man-hin!
Put me down!
Man-hin!
Help me...
Man-hin!
Block him!
Don't worry about us, brother Fung. Just go save her!
Man-hin!
Fung Man-hin! We let you escape the last time.
This time, I will kill you and avenge for my brother!
Where can you escape this time?!
- Fung Man-hin! - Man-hin!
Stop moving!
How have you been, third brother?
What's this?
With so many of them and they're still no match for you?!
Wait. Do you remember what day it is today?
Have you forgotten? It's the anniversary of our big brother's death!
We were the Seven Wolves, remember?
We've sworn to live and die together.
And you killed your big brother because of your principle?
You're lying! You maniac killer!
Maniac killer? Don't you know that your man was one of us?
He's also a heartless bandit who killed many!
Did you hear that? He's a bandit too!
I won't believe you!
Man-hin, you're not that kind of a person.
We would've been filthy rich already, if it's not
for your damn principles and theories!
Our big brother was so good to you and you killed him.
I should've known you're a traitor all along!
You traitor! You pretended to be righteous in front of your men
and you pretended to be decent in front of your big brother.
You think you can just hide yourself here and everything will just go away?
Now that our big brother is dead, I'm your big brother now.
I dare you show me any disrespect!
Well, Fung Man-hin?
Is your memory coming back to you now?
I'll uncover your real identity here today!
Man-hin, no matter who you are,
I will stay with you.
We will never be apart again.
As long as we're still alive, we'll meet again here.
Wai-yee!
You are the only man in my life.
Why don't we just stay here and
live with the villagers in peace?
Wai-yee!
I'll follow you wherever you go.
Wai-yee!
Well? Why don't you just kill me?
You've killed many before!
What, are you scared?
I've killed your woman. So kill me!
Killing me will mean that you've won!
Go ahead!
Have you found the answer yet?
I think I am different from you.
Really different.
Are you scared?
Yes. I'm scared that you will Sacrifice more than what you have.
I don't mind sacrificing as long as I'm successful.
Do you really want to kill this guy?
Yes!
Ben? I paged you.
I'm giving this gun back to you.
If you think you'll be the No.1 killer after killing me,
then just go ahead and try.
Are you really that confident?
Actually, being No.1 or No.2 doesn't really matter.
I've killed many people
and I've hurt many innocent people.
The woman I loved the most also died because of me.
I don't want you to follow my path.
Ben!
Ben...
You think I won't kill you because of her?
I can care less about anything else as long as I can win you!
I may be better than you on certain things,
but I am definitely no match for you on other things.
You have someone who loves you wholeheartedly
and who can Sacrifice for you.
You should cherish it.
No matter what, as long as I can be with you...
Shut up!
Just give it up!
You shut up! I won't give up that easily!
What are you waiting for?
Ben!
I have to do this all the time.
I am too old for this!
