How come it's so less?

I asked you for two more pounds of...

Alright, let's not argue anymore

"Zhongyi Martial Arts School"

You all continue training

Your good name, sir? Can I help you?

I'm looking for the Master of this school

Oh, he isn't in

What is the matter?

Perhaps you can tell me... anything I can do?

I think you are wasting your efforts

Practicing this kind of child's acrobatics!

How's that?

So as to convince you let's spar and you'll see!

Oh, so it's a match you're looking for!

Our master isn't in now, please come in the afternoon

Wait a moment

Sparring with the students will serve the same purpose

Among such a bunch of cowards...

there's bound to be one who has guts, eh?

I don't think you've a right to insult us

So what even if I abuse you?

Fight if you dare

Fine, let me teach you a lesson first

I'll gladly fight with you

Da Lung

Do you know what time is it?

You still work so hard. Come, let's have our meal

No, I'll work a while more

Siu Ling will soon be here with lunch

Oh, so Siu Ling is bringing you lunch today!

No wonder you work so hard

Well then... l'll go and have mine

Hey, listen

When the meal arrives let's eat together

And also discuss the kung fu we trained the other day

No need

If you want to train, go early after work

I'll leave you two alone to eat... see you

Brother Lei, Brother Lei

Brother Lei, Brother Lei

Suen Tung, what happened?

Someone's kicking up a storm at the school

Using Judo throws to injure Chau Jian

They are still at the school

Fighting with the other pupils

How many are there?

One only!

Let's not waste time

Ah Suen, you go look for the teacher

I'll return with Da Lung and deal with the situation

All right

Let's go

Lei Ming, Lei Ming!

Brother!

Now hold it, everyone

Please stop

I am Lei Ming

This is my senior Cheung Da Lung

Your name, sir?

Oh, two more experts have arrived!

I am none other than Diao-Erh

So, it's Mr. Diao!

Our school bears no grudge with you

Why are you causing trouble?

Rubbish

I'm determined to topple your school

Come on if you want to fight

Lei Ming, he is so bent on causing trouble...

what else is there to say?

I'll spar with you in the absence of our teacher

Wait

Master...

I know

Diao-Erh, long time no see!

Diao-Erh

You were a trouble-maker here in those days

...and public outcry forced you out of town

Presently, though you've learnt some skills

You're still stuck to your old grievances and vices

Teacher, you've always said Judo is powerful

Let me try it for myself

Da Lung, get back

Good kung fu. Well, let me oblige him

Alright

My apologies

We'll meet again

Drop by anytime

One month later

I'll return with some Karate experts

You wait and see

Lei Ming, this is a beautiful place

If we could come here everyday

...it'd be so nice!

Well, if you'd like...

I can come with you every Sunday and...

Or go fishing over there, okay?

Every Sunday? Not good enough

All you care about is boxing

What's the big deal? One can't eat it

Listen, your dad has spent his life teaching it

What you just said...

wouldn't he be furious if he hears it?

He knows how I feel about it, honestly

Still practicing martial arts at such an old age

And the school... it always invites trouble

I'm afraid someday there'll be REAL trouble

Siu Ling, there's nothing to be so afraid of

Sparring amongst martial artists

...is natural and inevitable

Even when troublemakers do come...

We've always successfully dealt with the situation

That Diao-Erh, the other day...

used Judo to injure a number of students

Although dad drove him away

While going he said he'll return with Karate experts

I dread thinking what will happen then

Karate!

Oh, this is not correct

This technique requires speed and some power

Do you follow?

Yes

Everybody stop

Come here

Everyone, please sit down

Today I'd explain to you all...

the objective of training in the Chinese martial arts

It is the legacy from Chinese people...

passed down from thousands of years ago

All styles of Chinese martial arts...

are broadly referred to as Kuo Shu

I wish your training here today

...will progress fruitfully

And let Chinese martial arts spread widely

Establishing the kung fu of the Chinese people

And maintain it as a proud tradition

This is the objective of learning Chinese martial arts

What I have said to you...

should always be in your hearts

As for some youths who after learning kung fu

...become belligerent and bellicose

They go against the objectives of learning kung fu

As you are my students...

I want you to remember:

Unless faced with a crisis...

never use your skills to hurt others

One of our key objectives...

is to train ourselves,

...and build our bodies;

To enable us to contribute substantially to society

Yes

Now then... you may ask if there are any questions

Go ahead

Teacher, that man Diao who came the other day

He kept threatening...

to return with Karate experts

What in fact is Karate?

Well, Karate also originally developed from our...

Chinese martial arts many years ago

...in the Tang dynasty.

The Chinese palm and fist techniques,

after having been brought to Japan...

underwent refinement for over a thousand years

...and eventually became Karate

Also known as Tang Sau ('Tang Boxing Style')

...Karate can bring out untapped human potential;

Such as power from hands and feet...

and escalate it to the maximum within split second

It is therefore a hard-style kung fu

...and very aggressive when attacking

lts power can also break wooden boards and stones

Master

According to you, if Karate is so powerful...

are there other techniques that can defeat it?

Yes

The Iron Palm and Light Leaping Technique

...when combined can certainly defeat it

Any more questions?

If not, the class is over for today

Lei Ming, everyone is gone

What are you thinking of?

Just now you heard our teacher mention

...Karate as being so deadly

If that Diao fellow some day really...

brought Karate experts;

What should we do then?

Oh, don't mind him

With teacher here, what have we to fear?

Wages have been paid at the mines today

Let's go to Master's house for a few drinks. Come

Master, here... a toast to you

Oh no, I'm too old for this

You should drink with Lei Ming

Right, I'll abide by what teacher says

So Lei Ming, you have to drink now?

If Brother Da Lung raises a toast, can I refuse?

It matters little if I'm drunk

But if you're drunk...

you might have to crawl back

Come on, drink

Brother Da Lung, drink less

You drink so much every day

Who'll want to marry a drunkard?

You both aren't married and yet keen to side with him

When you marry him one day

...dare I come and drink here?

You're flippant and always tease me

Siu Ling, don't feel shy

Da Lung is hardly a stranger here

When little Ming's parents passed away...

he was handed over to me to care for

I have seen you both grow up as pair

Around new year's time I'll pick an auspicious date

...for you both to get married

So I can put this matter to rest

Oh, teacher's going to be a father-in-law!

Don'tjust stare, raise a toast to teacher

Come on

Master, I raise a toast to you

Let's all have a drink

Good

Let's play our drinking game

Eight horses, seven skillful... guess?

Cheers

Once again

Good...

Teacher, I'll see him home

Okay

No need, I'll...

Brother Da Lung, go safely

Please, gentlemen, upstairs

Welcome

This way please

Please take a seat

Come, sit

What would you like to order?

These are honoured guests from Japan

Bring us your best cuisine and wine

If we're not satisfied...

we'll tear down your restaurant

Come on, get going

Yes...

Kita

That old codger goes to the school in the afternoon

Let's eat and rest, and then go there

What do you think?

Though there are a number of chaps in the dojo

They are useless

I believe these two of your men here

...can beat them

The old man however, does have some skills

You must be careful, Kita

Good kung fu, excellent!

Kita

We must win this time, can't accept defeat

Winning means fame and fortune

Losing means the end of everything

What are the benefits of winning?

In the event that we overthrow the institution

We'll be famous

But what's the use of fame?

Have I trained diligently in Okinawa for 20 years

...just to become famous in this petty place?

With fame

We can establish our own dojo here

And open a casino as well

You'll train fighters, I'll run the gambling joint

Would we be short of money then?

As an old Chinese saying of yours goes

Specify terms first, courtesy later'; Let's be clear

When that time comes, how do we split the money?

Brother, don't worry

As long as the mission is successful

We'll go fifty-fifty, everyone gets equal share

What do you say to that?

Right, we have a deal then

Yes, a deal

Here, let me raise you a toast

Yes, go fast

Ah Suen

What's up?

Ah Suen, I was looking for Master Lee

Lucky to have met you on the way

What is it?

There were these customers who came into the restaurant

Looking like vampires

I overheard them saying

Perhaps they'll come to your school & cause trouble

The manager has asked me to warn Master Lee

How many are there?

Four in all

Three of them appear to be Japanese

Let's not bother the teacher yet

I'll go and check it out with you

Sure

Have a seat

That fellow over there is from the school

Hey, it must be fate

We meet again today

Little bastard... what, the cat got your tongue?

Well then, kneel and bow three times to me

And I'll spare you

Otherwise...

Diao, watch your mouth

The worst is I'll lose my life fighting you

What more can you do to me?

Right, I'll let you taste the power of Karate

And then fix your teacher

If you mean those 3...

weird looking creatures

Let's go and meet teacher right now if you've guts

Come on, quick. Let's get out of here

Tanaka

Yep!

Good, let's start from the beginning

Be quiet, all of you. Lui Ming, Da Lung

Go and get those two here

Yes

No need to chase, I did it

Diao-Erh, you have a ruthless heart

My pupils have neither wronged you nor bear a grudge

Yet you cruelly resorted to such violent treachery

Ruthlessness makes a great man, not pity

That fellow insulted us

And insulted the Japanese masters

Take it up with them if you dare

Since it has happened...

There is nothing to be said

Don't think just because this is a way-side place...

there is no law, and you can do as you please

Who did it? Step ahead

My man did it

Let your students seek vengeance first

I'll save you for the last

An eye for an eye; every debt its debtor!

Since that's the case...

Ah Hoi

Here

Teacher, I'll go

Stop

Step back all of you

Ishihara, allow me

Yep!

Master, teacher

Teacher

Attack

"Entertainment House"

Opens up, opens up

House takes all

Kita, take a look

It's a full-house every day

In less than 3 months we'll be rolling in cash

By then you can have what you want

Siu Ling

Lei Ming, you're awake?

Thank heavens!

You've been unconscious for many days

I was at a loss as to what to do!

Drink up your medicine

Siu Ling

You saved my life

I'll never forget it my whole life

Don't mention it

So long as you're alright, I'll feel relieved

You're still too weak to move about

Siu Ling, where's teacher?

How is he?

Siu Ling!

What?

Lei Ming

Your wounds are still fresh

How can you go?

Besides, you would die in vain!

I don't care, I must go

No, you can't

Please, Lei Ming

All right, I'll do as you say

But gather all the students

We have to devise a plan

They are either dead...

or driven away by the villains

We have survived by hiding here

That is why they haven't found us

Oh, they're all dead... all dead!

That's why I urge you to let your wounds heal

Then see what happens

Five. Come, roll the dice

My turn

Give me all six

Damn it

You've lost

Damn, I don't believe my luck is that bad

Give me a winner...

Lost again

All six

Come, place your bets...

Open

Big, small

Bet on this

Small

Opens up

1, 1, 5, seven points, small

Goodbye...

Let's go

Come on

So it's you two

What's the matter?

You sure know how to pretend

Why do you say that?

You messed with the dice

And want to leave with that money, eh!

It's not that easy

I tampered with the dice?

Come on, don't make false accusations

If there's a problem...

I'll see Mr. Diao tomorrow

If you have anything to say

...talk to our boss

But not tomorrow

Why do you hit me?

Come along if you know what's best for you

Come on

Master Diao-Erh

What's the matter?

Come...

This is Master Diao-Erh

Master Diao-Erh

This is...

I am Ah Juan, Lin Hung's wife

So, it is Mrs. Lin

Mrs. Lin

What do you want to see me for?

I was at the casino

And they told me

Somehow my husband angered you

...and has been locked up

I am here to make a plea for him

Please let him go

Don't you know?

Last evening

Your husband used a loaded dice

What, a loaded dice?

Master Diao, he's not that kind of person

Please have mercy on him

No problem

Since you've come in person...

I must certainly give you face for this

Come, don't stand on ceremony

Let's have a drink first

No, Master Diao, I don't drink

Thank you

That's no problem either

Come, let's chat

Please don't, Master Diao

I'd better wait outside

You want to leave? Not that easy

Lin, come out

Asking for me?

You're released, don't you want to go?

Yes...

Siu Ling

You're back early!

There's been a disaster next door at the Lin household

What disaster?

Lin and his wife have committed suicide

What?

Everything seemed perfectly alright, why they did so?

They say that after Mr. Lin had won in the casino

...he was falsely accused of using a loaded dice

So they locked him up

Mrs. Lin went to make a plea for him at Diao's

But was raped by him

So she killed herself

What about Mr. Lin?

When he saw his wife dead, he also killed himself!

Lei Ming, what is it?

I was thinking

Ever since those ruffians came to this place

...there hasn't been a day without trouble

First it was the school; our teacher was killed

Then there's the casino

And they lend money at high interests

...thus ruining many people's lives

Now two more lives are lost

There'll come a day...

when I'll wipe out these villains

But... their kung fu is so powerful

What do you have to fight against them?

According to you, if Karate is so powerful...

are there other techniques that can defeat it?

Yes, the Iron Palm and Light Leaping Technique

...when combined can surely defeat it

That's it... master said that once

Why didn't I think of it!

What are you saying?

I have a way to defeat Karate

Really?

Yes

I'll start training tomorrow itself

How will you train?

We'll get some pellet sand and a big cauldron

Also sew a few canvas bags to hold lead pieces

About the rest you needn't worry

Right, I'll go immediately

Kita, this is your share for the month

Please check

Brother Kita

As we have established our foothold locally...

I would like to expand our territory

Open a casino in the neighbouring town

What do you think?

I am a layman regarding casinos & gambling

Do as you think best

I'll be in charge of the casino

But there are dojos and the question of patrols

With the resources we have at hand

...it might be insufficient

That's no problem

I'll write to Japan to invite a few samurai

As long as there's money, everything can be managed

Money, no problem

Let's consider it settled then

You do the recruitment, I'll run the casino

Tomorrow there are some debts to be collected

I'll go and assign the men

See you tomorrow

Come, check how much he owes

Five hundred

Boss Lee, it's time you paid your debts

Let's have it

I have it ready

What, this can't be all?

Sir, I borrowed two hundred

With principal & and interest here's 240

Isn't that correct?

What? Two hundred and forty is enough?

It should be five hundred in total

Not a cent less

Um... how could it be so?

Why are you so unreasonable?

You owe money; how reasonable do you want us to be?

Come

What are you doing?

Gentlemen, please be reasonable

Beat him

Bastard, you don't know what you're messing with!

Dare to meddle with our casino's affairs?

Come, beat him up

Let's go...

What are you doing?

I'll repay you

Don't close down my shop

Damn you

Please, sirs, I request you

Be off...

Don't close down my shop

Please, sirs, I humbly request you

Move!

Quick, Get up... there's a fire

Hurry up. Put out the fire!

These are the two gentlemen I invited from Japan

Kendo experts, Lumura & Kume

Excellent, superb

Your arrival is timely

In the last few days...

That fellow has been causing us constant trouble

If we were not speedy...

The casino would have been blazed

Your men are useless

Up to now, the appearance of that man

...has been just a mystery!

This...

In fact, that fellow's technique is too good

And he wears a mask

That's why we can't see his face

But I guess...

He'll come to us sooner or later

And when the time comes...

I'll kill him when we get that chance

Brother Kita

Then you must take action yourself

Wouldn't that be an overkill?

Well?

Really experts!

Brother Kita

If that lad shows himself again...

We will...

Opening up!

Six point... small

Good, again

Place your bets...

Come on... last chance

What is it?

There's trouble at the casino

Come in

Master Diao, you're wanted at the casino

Come in and speak

Yes

Someone's causing trouble at the casino

What, he's here?

What is it? Making much ado about nothing!

You go back first

Yes

Brother Kita

That trouble monger lad...

has come to our casino today

What do you suggest we do?

He has come seeking his own death

What are you waiting for?

By this time my men...

would be fighting with the intruder

But his skills are quite advanced

I think...

You two go with Master Diao

Yep!

Here it is... six points, small

Everyone

We have some private matter today

...to settle with this guest

Please leave if you will

C'mon, let's go...

Some guts you got! We've been looking for you

...and you dare to come to us

Let's see how you get out of here

Ah Biu, Ah Pei, attack

Come on, people

Use the weapons

You go back and tell Kita

I'll meet him at the mountain tomorrow morning

Hear that?

Yes, I heard

We haven't met each other

Yet you've been causing us trouble

Now let's see where you can run to!

Never met, huh?

You recognize me?

So, little bastard, you're not dead yet

I'll make sure you're dead... Attack!

Go on, attack

Hey, he is here

Lei Ming, what are you thinking?

Nothing really!

I've been thinking, after such a long wait...

The day of vengeance has come

For the past many days...

I've been living with anxiety

Every time you go out...

I have an inauspicious feeling

Siu Ling, don't worry for me

I'll be careful

But...

But what?

Please tell me

But this time I really have a bad feeling

Siu Ling, you must know

Good and evil cannot co-exist

Besides, teacher remains un-avenged

How can I not go?

I'm not stopping you, dear

But if anything happens to you...

what am I going to do?

I empathize with your feelings

But all I can say is that;

I hope, having trained for so long

...I can defeat Karate

Otherwise...

Otherwise what?

If I'm not back before dark...

you should leave this place soonest you can

Since I... I won't be here to protect you

Lei Ming!

Only in a year or so...

this fellow has improved his kung fu

Both your experts...

have been killed by him

You mean to say...

even I cannot beat him?

No... Brother Kita

That's not what I meant

I was afraid you might underestimate him

What do you mean?

If the casino falls it could be re-opened

But if anything happens to you...

we're all finished!

Don't worry, just watch me tomorrow

Of course, I just expressed my concern

Brother Kita

You're going to the duel yourself

What have I to worry?

But, I have also thought of another plan

Let's make a double hit

Then we can be perfectly sure

I'm listening

You were lucky last time

Let's see what your luck is like today!

Cut the idle talk, okay... Come on

Fight

You little brat!
