All language subtitles for The Five Venoms 1080p english

Medicine. Hurry up. Hurry up.

Medicine.

Master...

For all these years,
I've been trying to cure myself.

Now I don't think it's possible.

Yang De, you've been studying
for three years.

You know I'm the head
of the house of five venoms.

Yes!

A well-known enemy
of the martial arts world.

We live here quietly.

Here, we may talk openly
about the house.

But when you enter
the world of martial artists,

the mere mention of the house
is likely to put you in great danger.

Why?
We have done nothing wrong!

Haven't we?

You don't understand.

Before you came here,

the house had accepted
five students at different times.

I have five seniors?
What are their names? Where are they?

When our students leave here,

the first thing they do is take new names.

They must keep their backgrounds
as secret as possible.

These five students of mine,
some of them didn't know each other.

You've learned some martial arts here,
as did they.

But your skills aren't
sophisticated enough.

I won't live much longer.

After you learn their skills,
I want you to do something for me.

First, I will reveal to you in detail
the skills that I taught them.

These skills are the art of the house.

This used to be the training room.

You have five seniors.

I shall start with the eldest.
He's zhang xiaotian.

He practices the centipede style.

His nickname is "thousand hands".

He is known for his lightning moves.
It's like he has thousands of hands.

The second senior is called qi dong.

He practices the snake style,
and his nickname is "snake spirit".

His right hand is the head of the snake,
his left hand the tail.

He's famous
for his highly-responsive moves.

Fast, just like a snake.

The third senior is called gao ji.

He practices the scorpion style.

In this style,
the hands move like a claw.

The feet move just like a scorpion's.

I accepted him later than the others.

The eldest and the second senior
were unaware of each other.

Before them, I took
in your fourth and fifth seniors.

The fourth senior is meng tianxia.

He's older than
the second and third seniors.

He practices the gecko style.

He's trained to have a light body
and strong legs

so he can climb with ease.

He also makes use of the rebound force
to enhance his own power.

Your fifth senior is liang shen.

He practices the toad style.

Meng and liang didn't meet
the other seniors either.

The toad style, at its full strength,

is impervious to attacks
by sharp swords and Spears.

It can also break hard objects.

You've been here
only a very short time.

I made a mistake in teaching you
all these skills.

As such, you're not as skillful
as any one of them.

If you were to fight
against any of your seniors,

you would be no match for them.

I have no more time left
to teach you further.

You must combine your own techniques
with any skills of the house.

That way, you may take on any of them.

The house of five venoms
has done many bad things.

I have no idea
if your seniors behave properly

in the martial arts world outside.

It's my decision to bring an end
to the house of five venoms.

Now the responsibility is yours.

- Master, I...
- You must deal with them for me.

You will leave here tomorrow
to locate the five of them...

And keep a watchful eye
on their behavior.

Leave alone the ones
who act righteously

and confront the ones who do not.

Master, it's a big world outside,
so full of people.

They will have changed their names
already.

Unless it reaches
a very critical moment,

you shall not reveal your skills...

Master!

- You must do this for me.
- I promise you, I will.

I know it's a difficult task.

If they discover your background,
you will be in great danger.

Master, my safety is of no importance.

So, where should I go?

There's one more disciple
of our house.

He happens to be myjunior colleague,

but he has retired
from the martial arts world.

He still possesses
some precious treasures.

They are the ill-gotten gains
of this house.

He leads a quiet life in a small town.

I know only the name of the town,
but not his name or identity.

Find him and ask him
to donate the treasure to charity.

My intuition tells me that the treasure
is the source of all our disasters.

I think your five seniors
are searching for it.

How skillful is he as a fighter?

He is no match for your seniors.

Greetings, officer he.

Greetings.

Yuanxin, you're an officer of the law.
Conduct yourself better.

You shouldn't take food...

I would greatly appreciate it
if you paid me a little respect.

I've always owed you many a favor.

Yuanxin, don't ruin your reputation
because of petty gains.

Please spare me next time
when officer ma here isn't around.

Ma is a disciplined man.
I can't take advantage of him.

You're not kidding, officer he.

- What was that?
- Oh, that gambler lost money to me.

- Leave off!
- Bullshit!

Who were those two men?

Well, they're officer he and officer ma.

They're the officers of the court.

Officer he is very kind
and always willing to help.

If I wanted to find someone...

I'd be the right person to ask.

I've been living here for 60 years.

I know not only all the people,
but all the dogs and cats, too!

The person I'm looking
for is about 60 years old.

He's probably a very wealthy man,
a good fighter, and...

No idea, right?

You're bluffing!

Wake up, wake up.

Look.

Who's the banker?
I want to make a bet.

Yuanxin...

We are civil servants.
We ought to personify good ideals.

So, as gambling isn't allowed,
let's have a drink.

Right! He's the boss!

Bullshit!

Hey, what are you doing here?
Go away!

Can't I just look in from the outside?
Damn you!

Get lost!

Don't treat him like that!

Come in. What would you like?

But he...

Please come in.

Sorry, but I'm expecting someone.

Fine!

What do you want?

I want this, this and this.

- Officer he.
- Officer he.

It's you...

Waiter, bring me just a bottle of wine.

Good thinking. It's easier
for a civil servant to find somebody.

You have more opportunity
to find him.

It's been a year. We've searched
high and low for the families.

And still no clue.
The master could be wrong.

What about you? Do you know
where the other three seniors are?

I don't.

If they knew that the master's colleague
was here, then they would've come.

Very likely, and the master wants us
to find him first,

and ask him to donate the treasure
so any disaster can be avoided.

You shouldn't be so mean and selfish.

Students of the house of five venoms
dare not reveal their backgrounds.

- Let's depart.
- Yes, sir.

Senior...

Qi dong, you're good.

If I hadn't heard the news,

I'd have assumed that
you'd already taken the treasure.

The news has confirmed
that he's living in this town.

Who is it?

You'd never have imagined this...

Not going home, sir?

I haven't finished my work here,
there's more to do.

What's taking you so long
to open the door?

Respected sirs,
I'm just a poor scholar.

There's no money in my house.
Please leave us alone.

Stop pretending, old man.

No one would suspect you, working
as a bookkeeper in a government office.

You must be the snake.
Usually you never use a sword.

Now I understand...
You're thousand hands.

You are no longer
a member of the house.

Hand over the treasure.

We want only the treasure,
not your life.

You can't fool me.
Have you ever let your victims live?

You shall certainly be killed,
but you can avoid any suffering.

Damn it, I just bet on the wrong side.

The dice always give me bad luck!

You overdid it!

I'll tear his house apart
to find what I'm after!

What's so amusing?

You're full of bullshit.

This is a big county,
and there is law and order.

You cannot create a stir like that.
Thanks to you, our whole plan is ruined!

What a joke!

All these years,
you haven't found a thing.

It all depends on me.
What have you done?

I'm the senior member.
You're the second in line.

Even if! Did make an error,
it has nothing to do with you!

You aren't the only one
searching for the treasure.

Don't forget, there's a third brother.

Gao ji? The scorpion?

Yuan Lao is getting worse.

We have an emergency.
He should have come here to report.

Why are you staring at your superior?
You know the rules!

Sir, I have bad news.
Old yuan and his family are all dead.

They've all just been killed.
We must investigate this immediately.

- Where's he yuanxin?
- Probably out drinking.

- Go get him.
- Yes, sir.

Don't go back to the office.
Go directly to yuan's house.

Our fighting skills are for nothing.

We dare not show our abilities,
hiding and shrinking away like fools.

We are students
of the house of five venoms.

What? Haven't you ever seen
anyone practice internal power?

Brother he, there's a serious case.

Yuan and his relatives have all
been killed. We have to go.

- Old yuan the bookkeeper?
- Who's he?

You wait here. I'll be right back.

- Who is he?
- A friend I just met.

So the whole yuan family
was murdered.

Yes. But he wasn't rich,
so what could've been the motive?

Here you go.

You beggar! Do you want to die?

Wanfa, you're always so enthusiastic
when you play dice.

- What's happened?
- Nothing. Nothing at all.

- Officer he, I need to talk to you!
- I'm busy.

- It's important.
- Talk to me later.

Hey. Can you believe I saw the man
who murdered the yuan family?

Stop daydreaming. You'd be dead already
if you'd seen the murderer.

The murderer didn't see me.

Old yuan was just a poor scholar.

Why would somebody
be after his entire family?

The murderer not only killed them,
he also trashed the house,

as though the family were hiding
some great treasure inside.

Treasure?

- Hey!
- Watch out!

The skull of this male victim
was fractured.

Both legs are broken at the knee.

There are eight, ten...
Twelve broken ribs.

How many ribs were broken in total?

Sir, all the ribs have been broken.

This is a very serious case.

If we can't solve it, I'll lose my post
as governor of the county.

I will do my best, sir.

The killer was certainly ruthless.
Probably not a local.

I've instructed my staff to keep an eye
on strangers for the next few days.

He yuanxin, you should've been
standing by at the office.

- Where were you?
- Sir, I'm in the middle of investigating.

Yuanxin, what have you found?

A broken bone
in the neck of one young man.

- Let's take a look?
- Halt!

- We're just having a look.
- Halt!

Whoever's making that racket
will be beaten with a stick.

Governor's order: Whoever is making
that racket will be beaten with a stick!

Move away!

The yuan murder case.
You must work around the clock on this.

This case must be solved
within ten days.

One day over that limit, you will be caned
ten times. Two days, twenty times!

Adjourned!

Officer ma,
there's not a single clue anywhere.

Even if we had six months,
we couldn't solve the case.

We're officers of the law.
If we pass the due date...

What can we do?
I'll receive corporal punishment as well.

What can we do?

Stop!

- I've discovered something.
- What is it?

I'm not putting you down,
but you lot will never break this case.

I'll need some help...
Officer ma, I want to have a day off.

A day off now?

I'm not taking a vacation.
I'll be working on the case.

Yian inn

I never expected old yuan would be
working in a government office.

- No wonder we couldn't find him.
- So who killed him?

His skull was fractured
and all his ribs were broken.

It's the work of thousand hands.

Broken organs and serious bleeding,
it's the work of the snake.

Huh? The first and second seniors?

The master longed to be rid of them.

Whatever his reason,
I must capture them.

Don't worry. I'm with you!

Hey, let me go!

Let go of me!

Where's your mask?

Why were you hiding outside?

I need to see officer he.

Ouch!

What martial art do you practice?
It feels worse than being hit with a rock!

- Oh? I practice...
- Silence.

Someone told me that
he'd seen yuan's murderer.

Who? You?

Not me. It's wanfa!

- Right, start talking!
- What should I say?

You want to tell me
who the murderer is, right?

Now, the office didn't offer a reward...

But I may give you ten silver taels.

I'll tell you everything, officer he.
There's no need to frighten me.

The murderer has grown a beard.
I saw him at Hong's house.

- Hong wentong?
- I'm scared I'll be in danger.

Don't worry. I can put you away
in a cell for a few days.

Huh? Hong wentong?
I've met him a few times.

Is he thousand hands or the snake?

No one knows.
He's a wealthy businessman here.

I can't make a reckless move.
We have to wait till he leaves home.

Who's the murderer?

Thousand hands, the snake,
or the scorpion?

I don't care. The underlings
in the office are no match for them.

I'll take care of Hong wentong.
You help me arrest the murderer.

Very well.

Huh? Hong wentong?

Officer he, have you got it wrong?

Hong's a good friend of the governor.

He's close to the officers of the law
in the province.

That's going to be the difficult part.
Let's wait outside his house.

When the murderer comes out,
I'll detain Hong inside. You do your job.

I know you can't arrest the murderer,
so I've asked someone for help.

Who is it?

A new friend and a very skilled fighter.

What is it?

I helped you out.
Can I come along with you?

- Wait here.
- Fine.

- You'd better hide further away.
- I understand.

Officer he...

What brings you here?

Something highly poisonous.

You're wondering what kind of poison.

Well, it could be the poison
of a centipede, a snake, or a scorpion.

What's the riddle? I don't understand.

I don't care if you understand or not.
The truth will be revealed soon.

He's coming!

He's the criminal!

What am I being accused of?

You murdered eleven members
of the yuan family.

I am known as li hao now.
What is your real name?

The toad style?

Since you recognize me,
you should show me your kung fu skills.

You don't use blades.
You're just pretending.

You're thousand hands,
our eldest senior.

Many thanks.
Please accompany us to the office.

No, thanks.

The eldest and the fifth seniors
have appeared.

I wonder if the other three will, too.

- Stop! Stop!
- We got him!

We captured the murderer.
The governor will hold a court session.

- Master Hong, will you take a seat?
- It doesn't interest me.

But if the murderer were to make
a statement about his accomplice,

that might be of interest, no?

- He yuanxin!
- Yes, sir? What can I do for you?

Kneel!

You lawless villain, confess now!

I've done nothing wrong.
I have nothing to confess!

- Bring in wanfa.
- Wanfa!

Wanfa, did you see this man
on the night of the murder?

- That's him.
- Prepare the punishment tools!

- Hurry and get the tong sticks.
- Yes, sir!

It's false accusation!
A false accusation!

Tang shankui, you'll confess
sooner or later. You've no need to suffer.

Why should I confess?
I just have to bear the torture!

Court adjourned.

Sir...

How dare you, he yuanxin?

- Third brother?
- Our fifth brother is here.

If not for him,
the eldest would've escaped arrest.

You just want to shift the blame
onto him.

Get rid of him, or I won't sleep well.

Our fifth brother is a practitioner
of the toad style.

- It won't be so easy to get rid of him.
- We'll do it quietly.

You arrange the trap, then.

It seems that old yuan
didn't have the treasure.

- It could have merely been a rumor.
- We've spent years of effort for nothing.

What's the problem?
We are kings in a small town like this.

- Master.
- What is it?

- Governor wang is here.
- That quickly?

- Show him in.
- Yes, sir.

Please.

It's a pleasure to have you here,
governor wang.

- Please sit.
- After you.

The murderer in the yuan case
has been arrested.

I know.

Here's a money order
for 5,000 silver taels.

This is a very important case.
I can't make a decision rashly.

Don't worry.
You won't lose your post.

I'm wondering about the murderer...

You may find someone
to be a scapegoat.

Don't worry. This man is
a well-known martial artist.

We're not going to lose people
at random for this.

It's like you're doing my work for me.

You're only in it for the money,
so I'm not taking it too seriously.

It doesn't matter
who makes the decision.

One more thing, you have to deploy
he yuanxin elsewhere.

I know that.

You may have lin guang to do it.

Sir, what's the matter?

I present master Hong.

Yes, sir. Master Hong.

I need you to do something.

- Listen to what master Hong has to say.
- Yes, sir.

Master Hong.

Open it.

Are you letting me go?

I need to talk to wanfa alone.

- No problem at all.
- Let's make this easier for you, though.

Very good. Take your time.

Wanfa, you're the prime witness
in this case.

You're the only one
who saw the murderer.

Now, about the murderer...

I told them and the murderer
was arrested.

But something's wrong.
What did he look like?

He's a fierce-looking man with a beard.

Incorrect. He's a young man,
about twenty years old.

Strong-looking with no beard.

No! He does have a beard!

Tell me again,
what did the murderer look like?

He was a man with a beard...

No, no, I mean
he was a young man of twenty.

- And?
- Strong-looking and with no beard.

It's crystal clear this time.

Will you state the same in court?

I understand.
I'll state the same in court.

Summon he yuanxin!

Sir... sir?

I need you to take an important letter
to the provincial capital.

- You must leave immediately.
- But, sir, that's not my job.

Are you refusing my order?

Sir, we must hold tang shankui securely.
I know he has accomplices outside.

Enough. Stop.

This letter is very important.
I need you to deliver it immediately.

Yes, sir. I'll travel day and night,
and return as soon as possible.

Leave now.

Yes, sir.

Bring me officers ma and lin.

Yes, sir.
Summon officers ma and lin!

The murderer is still running free.

You have evaded your responsibility

and arrested an innocent person
to take the blame!

- Sir, wanfa's statement...
- Can we count on his statement?

He has revised his statement.

He now says the murderer is a man
in his twenties, strong and beardless.

He's now in the hostelry
on the south side of town.

Arrest him immediately!
If he escapes, you're all in big trouble!

Where is he? Where's officer ma?

He's carrying out the governor's orders.
Didn't ma tell you, officer he?

Damn it. The governor has suddenly
asked me to carry a letter.

I just wanted to tell officer ma.

- Which case is officer ma working on?
- It's the yuan murder case.

But we've already arrested
tang shankui, so...

Wanfa has suddenly revised
his statement.

He said the murderer wasn't tang
but a young man in his twenties,

strong-looking with no beard,

always hanging around that hostelry
on the south side of town.

That's where officer ma is headed
with his men.

What did you say?

- Officer ma.
- Officer ma.

Has the murderer made a statement?

Well, not yet, but...

- What are you doing?
- Tao li, are you resisting arrest?

Bullshit! What have I done?

According to wanfa's statement,
you're the suspect in the yuan case.

Utter nonsense!
I don't have time for this.

He yuanxin, he's the prime suspect
in the yuan case.

- What are you doing?
- I guarantee he is innocent.

- He helped me to arrest tang shankui.
- How could you be so foolish?

The court shall decide
whether he's innocent.

Your words carry no weight.

You're obstructing me in arresting him,
and that's a serious offense.

Yuanxin, you better think carefully.

If li has nothing to do with the case,
it won't harm him to appear in court.

We won't give him a hard time.

I'm not going to appear in court
with tang shankui and wanfa.

State your case clearly and the governor
can sentence tang shankui to jail.

We can't simply rely
on wanfa's testimony.

- You must accompany us.
- You're right.

No, brother he.

I've not seen any dirty tricks at the
office, but I've heard about plenty.

We're friends, after all.
What are you referring to?

Accompany us.
I will guarantee your safety.

I'll see you here again
after the court session. Wait for me.

- Very well. I'll go, just for your sake.
- This way, please.

It must be a coincidence, but the governor
asked me to deliver a letter.

I have to travel to the provincial capital
immediately, so take care of li for me.

He's a fighter. He won't obey the rules
of the governor's officers.

Don't worry. You better leave.

It'll be a serious offense if you fail.

I helped in the arrest of tang shankui,
the prime suspect in yuan's case.

Did you arrest tang shankui
at yuan's residence?

No, but didn't someone identify him
leaving the yuan residence?

- Wanfa.
- Here, sir.

Wanfa, you must tell us honestly
who you saw leaving yuan's house?

It was him.

Bastard!
What are you talking about?

How dare you raise your voice in court?

Wanfa, speak up.
I shall then make the final decision.

It was him.

You bastard!
Who ordered you to say this?

Arrest him! Arrest him immediately!

Li hao, you should have respected
the court.

Bullshit!

You tried to frame me with this trap.
But I'm no fool!

Sir, you must try
to calm him down first.

Once he's locked up,
I have a good idea how to finish him.

Desist!

Li hao, I know you're a man of standing,
so I won't hold you in contempt of court.

I would like to know, did wanfa tell you
that tang shankui left yuan's house?

Huh, now you speak like a man.

Wanfa informed he yuanxin,
chief officer of the county office.

Hmm... that's not difficult to prove.

But he's out of town on business,
and will be back in a few days.

Detain all the suspects.

- We shall wait till he returns.
- Yes, sir!

Li hao, please hold on for a few days.
Everything will be fine once he returns.

You'll cause trouble for he
if you refuse.

Very well. I will listen to you.

Court adjourned!

Sir, the murderer is
from the house of five venoms.

He's an expert of the toad style.

People who practice this style
will have a weak point on their body.

You must quickly have a coat made
of a thousand needles.

- Then you'll get the confession you desire.
- What's a coat of a thousand needles?

This is it. It consists of thousands
of sharp needles.

The body meridians will be ovennhelmed
by the needle points.

No matter where his weak point is,
a needle will Pierce it,

and then all the needles
will puncture his body.

According to the law,
this punishment is...

Governor, do you want to catch
the murderer or obey the law?

Very well,
I'll get the coat made right away.

Open it up.

In there.

Li hao, you've been greatly
inconvenienced.

I've brought a meal over for you.
Please enjoy it.

Brother ma, what a friend you are.

Officer he is my good friend.

And I consider you a good friend, too.

A civil servant is hard to trust, I know.

Li hao, I shall drink first
to show my respect.

Brother ma...

You've got to be careful.

Sorry I can't stay long, li hao.

It's fine.

He's a good man.
Serve him properly.

Yes, sir. Lock it.

The coat is being made
as quickly as possible.

It should be ready
for tomorrow's court session.

Just one thing.

He's very adept at martial arts.
No one comes close to his skill.

Chains and locks are useless
if he retains his internal power.

So... how do we get him
to put the coat on?

- I have an idea.
- Oh?

Sir, what we'll do is...

Brother ma asked me
to bring you this.

- Thank you for your trouble.
- Not at all. Please enjoy it.

Unless it's on ma's orders,
we're not allowed to do this in the prison.

Fairness and justice

- Bring the suspect.
- Yes, sir!

What a clever ruse!
A coat to destroy my internal power.

Who knew about this?
What an underhand trick!

But my body has no weak points.
You've wasted your time!

So, it's brother snake.
That coat must've been your idea.

You think my weak point is in my hand,
but you'll never find out.

Scorpion spearhead!

The scorpion is in the room.
Who is it? Who is it?

Now I know where your weak point is.

Put the coat on him.

Sign and I'll let you go.

He has passed out, sir.

Cuff him and lock him up
in the heaviest chains.

Court adjourned.

The law doesn't allow sentencing
without a signed statement.

- What should we do?
- Don't worry, sir.

Everybody saw
li's rebellious action in court.

He's already looking
at a death sentence.

We can't just dismiss the yuan case.
Let's accuse him of that, too.

I think we should punish him further.

His internal power is now destroyed,
he won't be able to withstand it.

We've used the coat of a thousand needles.
What else could we use?

- Should we use the red cuirass?
- Absolutely we should!

Fairness and justice

- present the accused.
- Yes, sir.

Li hao, confess
and you won't have to suffer.

You bastard!
I'm not saying anything.

You can't keep me here forever.

You must understand the situation
you're in, li hao!

I understand very clearly.

He yuanxin will return soon.

- Bring witness wanfa and tang shankui.
- Yes, sir.

Wanfa, you said that you saw
the murderer. Is that the truth?

Yes, yes. The murderer is a man
of about twenty, strong and beardless.

- Is he present in the court?
- Him. It's him.

What about him?

I've never seen him before.
I've never met a man with a beard.

Tang shankui,
you are free to go!

The evidence is well established.
Li hao is to be locked up then executed.

Ask the murderer to sign.

You are dismissed for now.
But you need to keep yourself available.

Why so aggressive?

Your weak point has been discovered
and you are broken.

You should thank me.

I'll save your head from being chopped off
and keep your cadaver complete.

Hang him, and report it tomorrow morning,
saying that he committed suicide.

Very well, sir.

Let's go in.

- Everything's taken care of?
- All done.

- But how did you know?
- What do you think?

Of course.

The guards inside are my men...
I mean, we all belong to your group.

That's right, we all belong
to the same group.

I've heard officers like you know
how to kill without leaving traces.

This is called a brain pin.
It goes straight up inside the skull.

It leaves no traces on the outside.

Wanfa was dispatched earlier.

He's been taken care of
with a Barb that slit his throat.

How does this compare
with your methods?

All done!

Damn, those tong sticks earlier
caused me a lot of pain.

They tortured me! And we still
haven't found the treasure map.

Our efforts have been futile!

Well, the matter isn't over yet.

Those who deserved to die are dead.
How could it not be over?

The toad is here,

and the scorpion is our man,
so no need to include those two.

Brother gecko must be around,
but is yet to reveal himself.

Well, don't rely on me, I've only met
brother scorpion a few times.

But I have no idea
what the hell he's been doing!

- Maybe brother gecko's dead!
- I get the feeling that it's not over yet.

What's brother scorpion doing?
Do you know?

Who knows?
Maybe he's the one who tortured you.

- Sir, I have returned.
- Dismissed.

But, sir, did tang shankui
make his statement?

That's none of your business!
Dismissed!

Yes, sir.

Yuanxin, welcome back.
You should take a couple of days off.

Yuanxin, what's wrong?

How's the yuan case going?

Yuanxin, the case is over.

Over? They tell me
tang shankui was set free.

And li hao was arrested as the murderer.
Is that what you mean by over?

And you tell me it's over?

Yuanxin, li hao signed a statement

saying that he was
from the house of five venoms.

You should know
the house is an evil organization.

- Where are you going?
- To see li hao.

Li hao committed suicide.

You only met him recently.
Why bother getting involved?

It's not like you're old friends.

Yes, I only recently met him,
but I have a duty!

- Wanfa did see tang shankui.
- Wanfa revised his statement.

- Where is wanfa?
- He died suddenly.

How very convenient!

Things happened after you left.

Also, lin... he died suddenly, too.

They were all murdered!

Their bodies were all examined closely.
They showed no wounds or injuries.

Wounds can be covered up
with money!

Yuanxin, we've all done questionable
things. But you're the only decent man!

Wanfa's body has just been buried.

You may examine it
if you so wish.

I want no more trouble.

A letter from home says
that my mother is very sick.

I shall resign my position soon,

and ask the governor
to promote you to captain.

Why bother ruining your future prospects
over this trivial matter?

Trivial matter? Trivial matter?

Trivial matter!

Officer he.

- Officer he.
- Officer he.

Ah, officer he...

All of you, get out of here!

Leave me alone!

Go, go, go!

Officer he, I had no choice
in the matter,

but I didn't touch
these 1,000 silver taels.

- Who gave you this?
- Lin guang.

- How did li hao die?
- Suffocated by tissues soaked in water.

Bullshit! Li hao was a skillful fighter.
You could never kill by that method!

He suffered punishment in the court.
His internal power was destroyed.

The device was made very quickly.

I'd never seen it before. It was called
the coat of a thousand needles.

The coat of a thousand needles...

The coat of a thousand needles...

How did the governor know
it could crush his internal power?

It was master Hong's idea.

When lin arrived,
the old constable was here, too.

We got very drunk that night,
and the old constable hanged himself.

He always said civil servants don't drive
out the rascals and protect the people,

but the other way around nowadays.

- Officer he...
- I've read the report.

Lin guang and wanfa died suddenly
with no wounds or injuries.

True, there were no wounds,
but I know their causes of their death.

- What are they?
- Wanfa was killed by a throat Barb.

Lin guang was killed by a brain pin.

Officer he, I'll be killed
if someone overhears me.

Take this money and leave immediately,
the farther you go the better.

Thank you, officer he.

How can a gecko resist a scorpion,
a snake, and a centipede?

All five venoms are revealed.

Let's talk up there.

- So you're...
- How are you, fourth brother?

I'm Yang de, the last student
of the master.

The master made a last will
before he died.

- Let's talk about this some place else.
- Tell me here.

Explain this to me,

how do you know of the scorpion,
the snake, the centipede and myself?

I saw the fifth brother catching
brother centipede.

These last few days, I mixed with
the petty officers, gambling and drinking.

One day, I heard him call
master Hong "the snake".

The toad's power wasn't destroyed
by the coat,

but by the scorpion's spearhead,
so that means the scorpion was present.

Apart from the snake, the scorpion,
and the centipede, there's the gecko too.

If you weren't the fourth senior,

would you seriously investigate
the matter of the fifth senior?

The master's last request to me was...

He yuanxin has been back a few days.

He hasn't made any trouble,
so he's not the gecko.

You worry about one thing today
and another thing tomorrow.

I think you're wasting your time.
The matter is over.

You're just mumbling nonsense.
The scorpion and you are like old men!

The centipede is of no use.
He's concerned there will be trouble.

So you want to...

- He's our eldest senior, after all.
- So what?

Wasn't the toad our brother, too?

Who the hell are you?

Maybe I don't know...
Maybe I do.

But I shall question you no further.

We only kill people
and commit crimes.

When does it stop?

First it was the toad,
then the centipede.

Will I be next?

Maybe we should find the gecko first.

You need not concern yourself with that.

That means, you've either found him
or alreadyjoined up with him...

Therefore you no longer need
the centipede's or my help.

I have nothing to say
to allay your suspicions.

I am the wealthy son
of an influential family.

I don't really care about the treasure.

It was just the fighting skills
I wanted to attain.

I entered the house by mistake.

I've just been controlled by you,
to do more and more evil things.

You make me kill
more and more people.

Once brother toad was dead,

it made me realize
how ruthless I had become.

But I have to kill
in order to keep mouths sealed.

I had to kill wanfa and lin guang.

You asked me when it will all stop.

I might as well tell you now.

You will continue to do evil things.

Once you start, there's no end,
forever and ever.

This is the training ground
of the gecko?

You're the last student of master.
I think you've learned my skills.

Yes, I have. But the master said
that I wasn't powerful enough.

The skills I acquired
are no match for any of you.

But if I team up with one of you,
I can defeat the others.

I see. But I don't know
who the scorpion is. Our enemy is hidden.

- Did brother gecko find any clues?
- No.

Though the scorpion is still in town.

The treasure that old yuan kept
is probably in the scorpion's hands.

It wasn't at his house.

There might be a map
showing the hiding spot.

If the scorpion has the map,
he'll definitely head there.

The scorpion may leave town,
and there are so many people here,

so how do we figure out
if he's here or if he's left?

Right.

Leave it be.
Let's practice first.

The master said the eldest senior
had lightning-fast hands,

nicknamed thousand hands.

I hope to tackle him
with the gecko attacking from above.

I will attack the lower parts of his body.
It should work that way.

Above!

Below!

The master also said
the snake's reflexes were very quick.

The right hand acts like the head,
and the left hand like the tail.

They protect each other.

I'll attack him with gecko
from both sides.

That may break his defense system.

- The right!
- The left!

The master also said
the third senior was...

I've been waiting for you for days.
I knew you'd come.

You want to stop me.

I know what a temper you have.
I'm here to lend a hand.

You're heading home, ma.
You don't have to get involved.

If you consider me your friend,
stop saying that.

I'm not disrespecting you.

It's just that when the fighting starts,
it'll be hard for you to step in.

Though I can't step in, I can protect you
from Hong's servants.

How's that?

- Hey, you've changed uniform.
- I've resigned from my post.

Good.
I'm not doing this anymore, either.

I didn't expect three of you to come.

Where's tang shankui?

I'm right here.

Tang shankui,
you're thousand hands.

And Hong wentong, you're the snake.
No need to pretend.

You are the gecko!

You should've realized earlier.

Why are you just watching
with your arms folded?

Private matters are outside
a civil servant's remit.

Who are you? You don't fool me.

Why don't you start fighting?

The scorpion?

The scorpion...

When did you realize?

When you threw the spearhead
and destroyed the toad's internal power.

Unbelievable.

- I just realized it recently.
- You always knew.

You wanted to use me to kill
the eldest senior and the snake.

- Wasn't it obvious?
- I see.

Is the treasure already in your hands?

What do you think?

Thousand hands, make it clear
that there is still room for negotiation.

You too have risked your life for them.

He's our little junior.

He has orders from the master
to clean up the dirt.

Finish them off,
and I'll share the treasure with you!

Split them up!

Where's the treasure? Tell me!

Move!

Come on!

The governor was also involved
in killing the fifth brother.

Birds of a feather.

Killing the governor is futile.
Another corrupt man will replace him.

How could we eradicate all of them?

Let's fulfil the master's last request

to use the treasure for charity and
absolve the house of its bad reputation.

No more house of five venoms.

You are right.
