Sir...

Jin Er

What are you laughing at?

How would l know?

Little Braid, come

Go up and take a look

Come in quickly...

Go over there, hurry

Kid, what are you doing here?

None of your business

Right

But you're blocking the way

Old man, you're so unreasonable

lt's a wide road, you can walk elsewhere

Go...

What are you doing?

We have come to make an offering

Why don't you use the front gate?

We saw the door open so we took the short cut

Go

Next time use the front gate

Yes...

Bastard, come out

Little bastard, where do you think you're going?

Come on...

Stand still

Let's teach this monk a lesson

Right, we outnumber him

Hold it there

Why are you bullying the kids?

Come on if you have guts

Sure

Go

You scumbags, still want to fight?

You are the scumbag, fight

Where do you think you're off?

You bloody monk, put me down

Put back the fruits you plucked

and l'll let you down

You are being unreasonable

How can l put back what l've plucked?

l don't care

Well, if you could uproot this tree

l'll put it back

Little bastard, you want to trick me?

Watch me

Put me down first

No need. When the tree falls, you'll follow

No, put me down first

Put me down please

Don't shake

l can't hold on anymore

No!

lnstructor Lin, please help

Brother

Brother. lt's really you

lt's been so many years, hardly could l recognise you

Why have you become a monk?

To help the oppressed l took a life

that's why l opted to become a monk

How did you know l was here?

Actually l came with my wife to make an offering

Brother Lu, l'd like to plea on their behalf

please let them go

l have already done so

l was just scaring them

You bastards,

tidy up this place

Yes...

Let's have a drink and chat

Let me tell my wife first

Okay

l'd like to...

l know, go ahead

Jin Er and Lin Zhou will keep me company

lt won't matter if you come later

Jin Er, look after the madam

Yes

Master forgets everything once he sees

someone with kung fu

They are sworn brothers

and haven't seen each other for many years

Let's have a good drink, wine...

Bring the wine

Meeting you today

has made my trip here quite valuable

To be reunited with you is my good fortune too

Brother, you are the instructor of imperial troops

and l'm just a humble monk;

Otherwise l would have looked for you

Brother, l am willing to lay down my life for you

You...

Brother Lu

Brother Lin

Cheers

Cheers

Go...

Go quickly...

Help, trouble

What's the matter?

Miss, don't be afraid

Don't be scared

You look so desirable

Scoundrel, even if you disregard the law,

at least have some respect for this sacrosanct place

Guard the back, don't let anyone in

Why have you barged in?

This is my wife

She is your wife?

You should have known

So what?

You have gone too far

l have turned a blind eye on your outrageous deeds

but today you dare to molest my wife

l will make this my concern

You dare?

We clothe you and feed you

you are in no position to say such a thing

Get it clear in your head

l work for the Commander

Not one of your men

No?

You dare to kill me? Go on, l dare you

Forget it

You dare?

Just let it go, dear

Such impertinence

Lin Chung, you'll see

Come out

l molested your wife today

come and kill me if you are a man

Don't make trouble

lf it weren't for the Commander l won't let you go

lf you keep on like this l'll surely kill you

lf l can't get your wife today, there's always tomorrow

and the day after tomorrow

l have my whole life to wait for the chance

Stand still

Brother Lu

l'll beat him for you

Attack

You dare hit me?

Damn you

Forget it

Make way

What's your name?

l have no name

Brother Lu

We should teach him a lesson

You...

l'll kill you

You'll see

Shut up

Crouch down and get out

Don't stare in anger, or l'll beat you

Bald ass

Stop, how dare you offend our master!

You want to rebel?

Brother Lu, Lu Chien is my good friend

This is my brother Lu Zhi Shen

Master Lu, your fame precedes you

Brother Lin, what happened?

lt's a long story

Alright, brother Lin

l'll visit you another day

Master, let's go back

Let's go

Brother Lu

Why bother putting in a word for such a bastard?

lt's all for the sake of the Commander

You've let him go, he wouldn't do the same to you

My humble position requires me to swallow a wrong

Then leave your office

With your kung fu you can get another job

l have long thought of this

but l am reluctant to leave my troop brothers

who have followed me so many years

Even so, it'll be the source of endless trouble

Dad, we have to get rid of Lin Chung

But he has done nothing wrong

Commander, to frame him is easy

What a cold hearted guy!

You flatter me

Lu Chien, l let you handle this then

Lin Chung is my friend

Then he won't take any precaution

But as far as conscience goes...

Put away your conscience;

give me his head and you'll be rewarded

Thank you

Develop a plan using someone else

Yes

The Commander has been good to me

and l am reluctant to leave

my troop brothers

Tell the troop brothers

l'll not resign because of this

Yes

We are relieved to hear this

Yes

lnstructor Lin, the brothers fear you might leave

Brother Lu

l've come to see you

Come inside

Okay

Brother Lu, you're here

How are you?

Bring some tea

Thanks

Please have a seat

Brothers, l've to leave this place

Why so suddenly?

Because l've beaten up that bastard

Master said l've broken the rules and kicked me out

We're so sorry

that we got you into trouble

lt's no big deal

Brother Lu, stay at my place then

l'm a monk, it's not that convenient...

We're friends until death, don't think like that

That's right

Brother Lu, stay then

No, the sheriff knows that l'm at the capital

how could l stay on?

Brother Lin, see you later

l'm leaving

Wait

Brother

Brother Lu, let's have a drink together

Alright

Come

We're going out

You and Jin Er stay alert

Come back earlier and drink less

You haven't slept the whole night

Bring me some change

Good morning, Master Lu

You are here too?

Bullshit

Brother

Brother Lin, sister-in-law

Greetings

Have a seat

No

The whole night l've been bothered by that incident

Master is so full of bullshit

lt's fortunate that Commander is a reasonable man

He scolded him and asked me to come and

say sorry to you

Brother, for Commander's sake

don't be too critical

What a senseless guy you are

Bringing up the matter and making me mad again

Alright, l won't mention it again

Brother Lu

Lu Chien is my good friend

Let's go for a drink together

My treat...

No, thank you

lt's no big deal, no need to stand on ceremony

l just don't like to accept your offer

Well...

lt should be my treat...

Please

Master Lu, just a moment

Let me have a word with Brother Lin

You talk a lot of rubbish

Brother Lin

Commander wants to invite you to his residence tonight

What for?

He wants to have a look at this sword

Brother Lin, wait for me here

l'll go in and inform the Commander

Please

''White Tiger Hall''

''Military ground- Unauthorized access prohibited''

''Trespassers will be prosecuted''

Assassin

Stop, l'm not an assassin

Who are you?

What is it?

Commander

Lin Chung, instructor of the forbidden troop

Greetings to Commander

Lin Chung, you should know the rules

Why are you carrying weapon here at this late hour?

Report to Commander

l'm here by His lordship's order to bring you the sword

Who gave you the order?

Lord Lu

Bring Lu Chien

l am here

Lu Chien

Commander

Did you ask Lin Chung to bring the sword here?

No, l didn't

You have not asked me to send for Lin Chung

how would l dare?

There's absolutely no such thing

What else could you say?

Lu Chien, you...

You can't accuse me

lnstructor Lin

Lu Chien

lnstructor Lin

You really didn't pass the Commander's order?

No

Didn't you ask me to bring the sword here?

No

You really didn't lure me into White Tiger Hall?

No

Lu Chien, we grew up together,

learned our skills together, and are like brothers

Why did you set me up?

Why?

lnstructor Lin, don't pretend to be so righteous

He bears a grudge for what happened in the temple

He's here tonight with an intention to assassinate the Commander

Nonsense

l stayed with the master the whole night,

how could you say l lured you in?

Dad, l can prove Lu Chien has been with me all along

Lin Chung

Commander

You're an assassin and still want to frame others

What punishment do you deserve?

This is a trap by Lu Chien and Lin Chung to ensnare me

Please investigate

Dad, use torture, he'll confess

Beat him

Yes

l am innocent

Beat him forcefully

Stop

Lin Chung, do you confess?

Every word of mine is truthful

Lower him

Yes

Take him down

Yes

Commander, l have something to say

Go on

Master, you bully people because of your position

You molested my wife

and set a trap for me

You'll never escape justice from the heavens

Go away

Let me plead with him

lnstructor Lin, l think you'd better confess

or you'll suffer torture

l can't bear to see you suffer

we are still friends after all

As long as l live

l'll remember this 'friend'

Alright

We have plenty of time

Lin Chung is found guilty of the assassination attempt

Due to the gravity of his crime, he deserves death

ln consideration of his merit at the job though,

the severity of his charge is lessened

to 'mistaken entry' at the White Tiger Hall

He'll be branded and banished to Cang Zhou

Lord Lu, we can't accept this

While escorting Lin Chung to Cang Zhou

please help me to buy something

What?

A man's head

A man's head?

Whose?

Lin Chung's

You'll be rewarded afterwards

But the documents say he's to be delivered alive

They don't say...

Commander will take care of it, dispose off his corpse

and cut off the tattoo on his forehead to report

No problem

Move on

Go on

Lin Chung, do you still think you are the

instructor of imperial troop?

You are a prisoner now

Wait, learn some manners

You drink when l say so, give it here

Come, go and drink

lt's a pity!

Take it and drink

Anything to eat?

Hey, l'm asking you. Anything to eat?

No business today

What? No business today?

There has to be, since we're here

l told you my son is also a constable

What did you say?

His rank is higher than you, don't stare at me

Come on

Old sir, please fix us something to eat

That's more like it

Look...

Forget it

Chin Niang

Husband

You have suffered

You didn't need to come

l have awaited you a whole night

Chin Niang

l must see you

There are many things l want to tell you

Look at me

How could l face people anymore?

lt's my fault, l've got you into trouble

No, l have misplaced my trust

Once you find Lord Wan at Cang Zhou

you can clear your name and have your revenge

l'll be finished by then

Why?

Look at the tattoo on my forehead

lt ruins my whole life

Dad is here too

Son-in-law

Father-in-law

Rise...

l might not survive this trip

Please excuse me for not being able to serve you again

No...

Father-in-law

What is it? Go away, go

Officer, please do us a favour and let us say goodbye

No...

He's an imperial prisoner

How could you get close to him?

Please, do us a favour

Well...l'm a soft-hearted person

What? So little?

That's all we've got

Take it back

Do us a favour

No, business is business...let's go

Officer

Brother, the Gaos sneaked in from the back door

Go

Big Braid, hurry and open the door

Let's go

Let go of me, Dad

What are you shouting at?

Let me go

They've lots of men

What are we going to do?

Think of a way to rescue them

Open up your eyes

The more angry you are, the more beautiful you look

l must get you

You framed my husband and you want to molest me

Robber...

Master

How dare you come in at this time?

That monk returns

Teacher, you are here just in time

That Gao is inside

Go quickly...

Go

Brother, this is a wonderful idea

They have all been scared away

l just caused them to draw back

Chin

Dad

Are you alright?

l'm fine

Move quickly

Go

How dare you impersonate the monk?

Dad...

Come

Dad, let me go

Let me go

Stand there

You bastard

You bald ass

You are caught today

Don't kill him...

He has caused such suffering to my brothers

l purposely came back to kill him

Why can't l kill him?

No, if you do, Lin Chung's guilt will never be cleared

That's right

lf l don't kill him, he'll come again

Let's move to Qi Jia Village right away

My mind shall be at ease if you live here

Look after your aunt

l am leaving

Brother

Where are you going?

l want to escort brother Lin to Cang Zhou

Cang Zhou is far away from here

wouldn't that be too difficult for you?

We are brothers until death

Hurry

Move it

Move it

Damn it, move

Quicker

Quicker

Go on

At your speed we wouldn't make 100 miles in 2 days;

When will we reach Cang Zhou?

He is deliberately going against us

Move it

l am injured and carry such a heavy cangue

l really can't move any faster, please...

l don't care, just move faster

Dong Chao, Xue Ba

lf you do that again l'll teach you a lesson

Teach us a lesson?

What could you do?

Do you still think you are the chief instructor?

Stop dreaming

Though l have landed myself in such a situation

you still can't treat me like this

What?

What do you mean? Beat him

lnstructor Lin

lnstructor Lin...

lnstructor Lin...

Get up and move

Lu Zhi Shen is coming

This could be a problem

That's why l have come immediately

when the master got the news

He asks you to kill Lin Chung quickly

so as to avoid further problems

Dong Chao and Xue Ba are so useless

Manager

Get out...

What are you doing?

Sir, we run a decent establishment here,

we can't let prisoners come in

You old fool, do you know the law?

We are officials

and we stay where we like

This is not the first time

Go away

lnstructor Lin, let's go over there and rest

You take this room

We villagers are superstitious

please don't let the prisoner sleep in our bed

Shut up and bring over some food and wine

Yes...

''Shi Li Xiang lnn''

Tomorrow before the sun comes up

you should hit the road

About ten miles ahead

there's a forest called...

The Wild Boar Forest

The Wild Boar Forest, that's it

lt's desolated

you can kill him there

otherwise Lu Zhi Shen would cause further problems

Yes...don't worry

Lin Chung is deadly

but we have a good plan

l guarantee we'll succeed

ls the water boiled?

Yes

lt's very hot

Enough

lnstructor Lin

lt has been a tiring day

wash your feet with hot water and relax

You're so kind

That's alright, come and sit over here

You are too kind

You're welcome

lt's just a small matter

Thank you

lf one day l...

Don't be upset, you'll have your lucky break

Just relax

l hope we could reach Cang Zhou soon
