Has a stranger come here?

Yes...

Where?

Over there

We are not looking for this beggar

but a fighter with a rare sword

You' rereferring to...

The famous hero Jiang Dan Feng

Not here

Get these customers out

I'll wait for him here

Get rid of the beggar too

Yes

Scam

Get lost

Brother, we don't know that

Jiang Dan Feng you're after

Even if he came we wouldn't recognise him

That's right

He is known for his swift swordsmanship

and he always carries his sword with him

Someone over there

You can't go in there

You dare harbour him

I haven't

Dad...

I thought it was the Magnificent Swordsman

but it turns out to be a lady

Not bad looking

Let me see

Baby

Robber

How dare you!

Let's go and have a look

So you are the Magnificent Swordsman

Who sent you to kill me?

Speak

Magnificent Swordsman

He is renowned

His fist punishes the bully

his sword is the death of criminals

It must fight against the tigers and wolves

don't let them have their way

Once the sword is drawn

it will stop them from endangering the world

Magnificent Swordsman

well renowned

Magnificent Swordsman

So this great hero

is a philanderer

One night

his bestial side ran amuck again

So he stealthily

sneaked into a backyard

Go ahead...

Speak, you

What is he doing in the backyard?

Go on...

Why tease us at this point?

That's right

Go on with it

This thief wants nothing

but a woman

Woman? Great, speak

He approached the girl on the bed

and drew open the blanket

Lo & behold, the girl is naked on the bed

Then he...

Grab her, quick

Right

Grab...

Grab her, quick

He grabbed her

Why is the light out?

My silver's gone

Oh? The silver's gone

So is mine

Quick, bring the light

Here it is...

Stop...

You, you stole it

If you talk nonsense I' I I kill you

What? I saw you

Search him

Right

What...

Stop this noise

What are you doing?

Look what is this!

This was on you

and you still deny it?

What if I stole it?

You can't do anything about it

What?

Why did you hit people?

You stole and you dare hit others?

Let's tal k this over, calm down

Let's go

Let me go...

Are you alright?

The kid is deadly

He has gone

Can't let him go

Wait

Please take this letter to Sha village for my sister

Your sister?

Xiu Xiu

Xiu Xiu

Xiu Xiu

Xiu Xiu, don't run

I want to speak to you

Stop, it'd be embarrassing if we're seen

What's there to fear?

We're engaged

Let me show you something

I got this bamboo slip

which tells me my lucky fortune

Buddha says it's best we got married soon

Nonsense!

It's true

Xiu Xiu

Xiu Xiu

Xiu Xiu

I didn't say this

See, it's Buddha

Even mother supports us getting married sooner

What do you think?

I think we should wait for 3 more years

Wait for 3 more years?

No way

Alright

I'll compromise and agree to 2 years

it can't be any sooner

Alright, I'll compromise too

latest at the end of this year

No later, okay?

No

Don't go

I want next year

You disagree, right?

Based on what do you disagree?

My brother has not married

So if he stays single you won't ever marry, is that it?

If you refuse to promise me, I'll jump into the river

Empty threats are useless

Right, I'll jump then

Brother Gen Sheng...

I was just kidding

So was I

Naughty

Look

Xiu Xiu

I won't promise you

Xiu Xiu...

Pull...

Pull... come on

Harder

Again

He's strong

Thanks...

Come, let's continue

Is there a Xiu Xiu at the Sha village?

Xiu Xiu?

Yes, the last one at the end of the lane

Thanks

You're welcome

Anyone home?

Who are you looking for?

Miss Xiu Xiu

Yep, it's me

This is from your brother

He...

He...

How is he?

He won't be coming back

Brother

You needn't feel sad for him

It's his own fault

he tried to kill me but on the contrary harmed himself

So you killed my brother

No I didn't

So...

he was killed by

the robbers with whom he consorted

He still thought of you when he died

I think he was a good man

so I came to tell you

never expecting...

This is your brother's silver, take it

You're a good man, I misjudged you

Wait

Don't go

Thanks

Since my brother wasn't killed by you

why didn't you fight back

when I raised a hand against you just now

I have been around for many years

but this sword has never killed a good person

You are an innocent girl

how could I fight you?

Besides, your brother wasn't really that bad...

altogether, he had a good heart!

You' re too kind

He was merely a good for nothing

who loved all the vices

Everybody said he was good for nothing

and he wouldn't listen to me

Come here

Sit

Your brother's dead

who'll take care of you now?

I'm all alone

Though my brother wasn't good

he did care for me

Our parents died long ago

and he raised me

He came to see me the night before last

What? He didn't come home often?

Before he used to

Not any more

Over a ten robbers came here recently

to cause trouble at our village

Their head is called Huang Da Ba

Huang Da Ba?

He is a fierce person

who consorted with people like my brother

and pillaged everywhere

Huang Da Ba

He dare wound three of my men!

Old Zheng, come down

Yes

Chief

Has our man returned from the reconnaissance?

Not yet

Go and have a look again

Yes

Could it be him?

The swordsman who has been causing us trouble

That gang of robbers

killed my parents

my brother and sister

and burned my home

You tell me what should I do!

My parents were murdered too

when I was small

And so was my brother

I have been thinking

I'll not bully anyone

but I'll not be bullied either

I'll not let anyone who tries, get away with it

I want to avenge my family

and kill all the bad people

and exterminate all evil

Have you seen a

stranger in your village?

Yes

Where?

In Xiu Xiu's home

Xiu Xiu's home?

No way, he killed her brother

why would she let him stay there?

It's true, someone saw it

We found him at last!

Hide upstairs, I'll be right with you

Who is it?

Gen Sheng, it's you

What's the matter?

I heard your brother was killed

Who was that?

He is the one...

who killed your brother, right?

No, you're wrong

Someone saw him carrying your brother's sword

and enter the village

Gen Sheng

He is here and you still tried to fool me

He didn't kill my brother

What? You still defend him?

No

He didn't...

He didn't...

then who did?

Xiu Xiu, just think

We'll soon be getting married

and you harbour a man

who killed your brother

How can I make it any clearer to you?

lt'd be disaster if the word about this got around

Gen Sheng, I injured him

that's why I asked him to stay

why wouldn't you believe me?

I don't care, get rid of him, right now

How could I? His wounds are not healed

How could you pity hi m?

Gen Sheng...

You killed her brother

and you dare come and see her

You've got this all wrong

I'll show no mercy if you won't leave

Wait, you know kung fu?

Come

Gen Sheng

Don't fight

Stop it

Are you alright?

Gen Sheng...

Mr. Jiang, why are you leaving?

Xiu Xiu, open the door...

Open up...

Xiu Xiu, open the door...

Mr. Zheng

the chief of the village invites you

What is it?

You'll know when you get there

Xiu Xiu, I asked you here

Do you know what I want to say?

Yes

Good, you ask him to leave here soon

or he'll bring us trouble

understand?

He is not a bad person

His kung fu is good

If we let him stay

we needn't be afraid of Huang Da Ba and his gang

Nonsense, we'll have peace without him

Right...

Just ask him to leave

If you don't

I'll ask someone to do it

No need. He's gone already

What are you doing... you...

Get lost

What are you doing?

Go in...

Xiu Xiu

Do you know your brother has been murdered?

Our chief wants to avenge him

If we catch the killer we'll tear him apart

Brothers

let's get something to eat

then continue, okay?

Right, ask her

Give us something to eat

Hurry

Help yourselves

Move the chair here

I'll pour the wine

Bring the wine

Give me a bowl

Hurry

Come...

Don't rush

Hey, come on

keep us company

Come, sit down

Don't be shy

Have some wine

Let me go...

Let me go...

Let me go...

Oh, Xiu Xiu has harboured a man

Let's go...

Why are you back?

I knew they'd bother you

You better run away

Huang Da Ba won't let us off

I' m not going

until I get rid of him

You fools

you still say he is not that swordsman

Look

look at the wounds on your faces

You still have the nerve to come back?

All idiots

His skill is fast and accurate

and he's left a scar mark on all your faces

You still say he is not that strange swordsman

Old Zheng...

Chief

I have to kill him with my own hands

Get some men to finish him off

Yes

Let's go together

Right

Wait...

I don't think we need these many men

What's your idea? Speak

A good for nothing adviser

Come on, tell me

Chief, I can tell this guy's kung fu

is very good

and our men are frightened by him

I'm not scared of him

Sure

Chief

we shouldn't face him head on

we must use tricks

Open the door... quickly

Anyone here? Open up

Open the door... quickly

Tell that Jiang guy

our chief invites him for dinner

Ask him to come if he has the guts

or else get away from here

Tell your chief I'll be there

Let's go...

It's a trap

I'm not afraid of them

I want to meet that Huang Da Ba

That's good

If he's willing to come

then we can get rid of him

very easy

Damn, you are good

Let's prepare something

to entertain our guest tonight

Right

Who are you?

Could you be the famous

Deadly Whip Yi Sheng Lei?

Your fame precedes you

What's your business here?

I' m here because of Jiang Dan Feng

No offense

but you' re no match for him

I' m not boasting but only I could take care of him

Good, we are on the same side

let's go in and talk

No need

If you want to kill him

just pay me 3,000 taels of silver

I don't think we need your help

We have set up many traps

waiting for him to show up

Stay alert since you're alone here

Attack

Who is it?

It's me, Xiu Xiu

Open the door, quickly

Xiu Xiu Chief

You're still up?

Yes

It's her

What are you doing?

Take her away... hurry

Let's go

Chief, I don't think our guest will show up

The guest is here

I am late

Since on my way

some of your men have played a joke on me

They tried to stop me from getting here

Have a seat please

Folks, a toast to our guest

Cheers...

Thanks...

Cheers...

Thanks for the wine, I'll treat you to some meat

Your name please?

I am Jiang Dan Feng

Sit down

Mr. Jiang, shall we be friends?

How so?

You always embarrass our gang

and I want our rift to end

If you agree

I want you as my friend

and Xiu Xiu could be your wife

with a hundred taels of silver

You take her away from this village

I don't want to consort with your kind

What impudence!

Is this what you mean by friendship?

I'm willing to accept your challenge

Look who's here!

Move...

Mr. Jiang

Leave this village with Xiu Xiu

and we'll not bother each other again

Agreed, let me take Xiu Xiu

Bring her here

Yes

Mr. J iang

Hero Jiang

the road is dark

it'd be easier with this

Xiu Xiu, hide at the back

Open the door, quickly

I want to see your chief, it's urgent

Yes

They want to see you, chief

Please sit

Are you the chief of Sha village?

Yes, what can I do for you?

Listen

Your village has harboured a murderer

you must pay 3,000 taels of silver

to clear your name

Send it to our chief within three days

If not

we'll ransack your village

to avenge our men who have died

Sure

I'll send it for sure

Three days

Let's go...

Trouble comes

What?

What is it?

For helping me, Huang Da Ba

has asked the village to pay 3,000 taels of silver

and hired a ruthless expert for the purpose

Really? He already has many men

now there's one more expert

How could you deal with him alone?

I think you'd better leave

No, the expert they hired

is the one who killed my family

But you are alone

They want me dead and want to pillage the village

Really?

That's why I can't leave

and must wait for them

I will come

but you must send me the silver first

Don't worry, it will be there in three days

The village chief wouldn't dare go against me

Do you understand what I said?

We'll pay the 3,000 taels of silver

We'll pay them

if that's what they want

It's better than putting the whole village at risk

We'll split the payment up equally

to avoid disaster

Right

It's easy for you to say

3,000 tales of silver is not a small amount

I can't even come up with 20 taels

Besides, after we pay him

he'll want more

there'll be no end to it

They only want 3,000 taels

one must be reasonable

why would they want more?

If they were reasonable they wouldn't be bandits

don't you understand?

Then let them pillage the village

Why should we let them

Let's join together and fight them

Fight them? They are martial art experts

Are we their match?

Still we ought to try

We have more men

why can't we beat them?

We also have martial arts experts in our village

should we be afraid of them?

Besides, they are not from here

and are less familiar with the village than we are

we can beat them

What if we lost?

we'd still have to pay them

so why fight?

I have a family and so I refuse to fight

I say we fight

As long as we unite

we could beat them and drive them away

Alright, pipe down...

Let's decide whether

we fight or not

Those against it stand up

Right, it's decided we don't fight

We are the ones who suffer

We have to give a share of the silver

If it weren't for the money

I wouldn't sell you the provisions this cheap

I know, I have to pay too

That Jiang guy is the cause of all this

He caused all the trouble

Xiu Xiu is to blame too

She's betrothed to her own man

but harbours a man at home

How would Gen Sheng feel? Right?

Yes, we feel bad for you

I saw them both talking

outside of the village

If it were me I'd kill him

Why are you leaving suddenly?

Did I do something wrong?

No

I see! You don't

want to be involved in the village affairs anymore!

No

Could you tell me about it?

Don't just sulk there

I caused rumours about myself

I...

You want to leave my home

to prevent rumours against us, right?

I could wait here for Huang Da Ba just the same

So...

Mr. Jiang

No matter what the people say

you know very well

our conscience is clear

What are we afraid of?

No, Gen Sheng has a bad temper

and quarrels with you because of me

I have to think about your position

One day he'll understand

Never mind them

Go back with me

The villagers are joining forces

against Huang Da Ba

No, I have decided

I'll deal with them alone

No, they have so many men

plus a martial arts expert

how could you deal with them alone?

Death have long since no effect on me

this is my life's savings

you might have use of it some day

Keep it

Xiu Xiu, come here

what are you still looking at?

Go back with me

What are you doing?

You dare ask me

You have come here with him

I told you we are finished

Gen Sheng

please don't treat me like this, okay?

Go back with me

Gen Sheng

Come...

Shameless

Go over there

You still haven't married yet you're like this

I hate to think what you'll become after you're married

Let's clear this thing in front of everybody today

I haven't done anything wrong

what's there to say?

Shameless

Let's be civilised about this

Sir, her marriage with our Gen Sheng

was arranged through you

If she doesn't get rid of that man

just ask her to tear up the nuptial agreement

Then get rid of him

No

Tear it up

if you don't, I will

Wait

I will go

you are wrong about Xiu Xiu

I stayed here to protect the village from bandits

We don't need your help

We even sold our provisions because of you

The chief will deliver

3,000 taels of silver to the bandits tomorrow

What are we still afraid of?

That's right

Wait and see, the truth will come out

The village chief is here

Bring him in

Yes

Chief

Have you brought the silver?

Yes

How much?

3,000 taels exactly

You promised to leave our village alone

I did?

Yes

Alright

You wouldn't obey me

you harbour a swordsman

No, we got rid of him

Chief...

Mercy...

Bad news, the village chief is dead

Quick, come and see

What happened?

Xiu Xiu the chief has been killed by bandits

and he has been hung on the tree at the village entrance

The chief is dead?

Yes

Bitch, you still cry?

You caused his death by

harbouring that man in your house

It's Xiu Xiu's fault...

What's the use of blaming her?

You should blame the bandits

The Chief has asked us to prepare to go

Right, let's slaughter them

The bandits are here...

Quick...

Quick...

Gen Sheng, why are you still standing here?

Get inside quickly...

What are you looking at?

Let's go quick

Don't run

Join together and fight the bandits

it's no use just closing your doors

Come out

Don't close your doors, come out

Don't run...

Don't run... it's no use

Let's go

Xiu Xiu, remember

if I am killed

you must escape

and hide for a while

I don't think they can kill me

I'll kill you and then pillage the village

Do you recognise me?

I have been looking for you for a few years

If I could kill your family I could kill you too

Surround him

Yes

Well, are you going to yield?

A hero won't

You shouldn't have come

On the brink of death and still trying to be tough!

Attack

Out of the way

Chief

Attack

Quick

Mr. Jiang

Don't come near

Attack

Over there

Go up

In front

Don't let him get away

Let them chase, he can't escape

Over there

Attack

Gen Sheng, what's the use of learning martial arts

Gen Sheng...

The bandits will pillage the village

and kill our people

and you're still hiding at home

You sit calmly as if you' re waiting to die

Why don't you stand up and fight?

Gen Sheng... go quickly

Wait... I'll get my sword

Gen Sheng, what's with you?

Come out and fight the bandits

Mr. Jiang...

Hero Jiang, you saved us

Mr. Jiang...

Mr. Jiang...

Mr. Jiang...

Xiu Xiu

Mr. Jiang

All the people from the vi[lage thank you

Thank you
