Good luck, General Yin.

A man must do or die.

Master Ho, before I left, Lord Zheng was concerned about you.

If he can strike back with his army and defeat the Manchus,

credit for Guangzhou will be yours.

One must make sacrifices for one's country.

The six brothers arrested by the Manchus were tortured,

but they have so far refused to make any confessions.

This is most admirable.

If I failed, I wouldn't even get arrested.

- General Yin. - Master Ho, please…

NORTH GATE

Gentlemen…

When the Inspector General and General Tianda arrive,

please put in a good word for me.

Don't worry, Magistrate.

General Tianda ordered us to capture the six traitors.

The Inspector General has been specially invited to supervise the execution.

- Yes, yes… - Tang San-yao, it's after midday.

- Don't forget the general's orders. - Yes, sir.

The Inspector General has arrived!

Make way!

It's a trap!

General Yin, I knew you'd be here to welcome the Inspector General.

But he's not even here in Guangzhou.

Stop!

Your skill is worthy of a general.

Let's have a fair fight.

A general versus a general.

Let me test your skills.

Good, I need a sparring partner!

Let me fight you in single-handed combat.

Be quiet! Quiet!

The teacher's here.

The teacher's here!

The teacher's here, hurry!

Master Ho.

Master Ho.

Master Ho.

THE VIRTUOUS ARE FREE FROM ANXIETY,

THE WISE ARE FREE FROM DOUBT, THE BOLD ARE FREE FROM FEAR.

What is it? What's happened to Master Ho?

Master Ho.

Have some tea, Master Ho.

Master Ho, why are you so late? Did you go to see the execution?

Hey… Executions should be interesting.

Lin Zhen, that depends on who it is.

If it was the invading Manchus, then that would be interesting.

But today's victims were patriots.

They were all Han martyrs.

- You still think that would be interesting? - Well, I…

Yesterday, I taught you about sacrifice

for the sake of a righteous cause.

Do you all understand?

We understand.

Hurry up! Hurry!

Here! It's here.

Is he dead or alive?

Well, he's so stiff, of course he's dead.

He's a hero.

- What did you just say? - I…

- Take him! - Yes, sir.

- You're an accomplice. - Lord Tang, Lord Tang!

Lord Tang, please listen.

This student is not a criminal. He's the son of a fishmonger.

- Son of a fishmonger? - Yes, exactly.

And these are his classmates.

Yes, we're his classmates.

Where are you studying?

They all study at the Chong Wen School.

Are you vouching for them, Master Wang?

Yes, sir, yes, sir.

- Apologize to Lord Tang. - I…

You're too young and inexperienced, always causing trouble!

Do you know who I am?

I do, I do, sir. Tang San-yao, Lord Tang.

Yes, sir.

Let's go, quickly.

Uncle Wang, we didn't do anything wrong.

Yes, I know, but Tang San-yao is notorious

and he's crazy for money, women and killing men.

You must not antagonize him.

As the saying goes, "One must submit to those who rule."

Master Ho, please open the door!

Who is it?

Master Ho!

- Open the door, Master Ho! - Master Ho!

Master Ho…

What's the matter?

I…

There's something we can't understand, so we've come to you at this hour.

They say, "One must submit to those who rule."

Must we and our children yield and conform forever?

I say, we'll be beheaded if we don't.

If we do not fear death, we don't have to yield.

Well said, well said.

One brave man alone is not enough.

But there is strength in unity.

Master Ho, the Manchus are well armed, and we do not have…

Every citizen is responsible for the rise and fall of his country.

Lord Zheng is recruiting in Taiwan

and stirring up trouble for the Manchus.

The Manchu Emperor has ordered all coastal residents to move away

and to be on their guard.

Master Ho, I wish Lord Zheng could use us.

That day will come.

- Do you all want to help the cause? - Yes!

- Good. Then, come. - Yes, sir.

Secret documents will arrive by sea in the next few days.

I need a way to bypass customs.

Liu Yude, your family runs a seafood shop, right?

Yes.

"Open sesame."

"Open says me."

- Master Ho sent us. - Good.

Young man, you're a brave fellow.

- Lock it all up. - Yes, sir.

- Hurry up. - Father, has San Li's abalone arrived?

Oh, the abalone…

Go, go now. Last time, the sea cucumbers were…

Yude, what are you up to?

Oh, well, a big order for abalone was placed.

I'm showing them some samples.

Oh? You're learning the business now?

Yude, you don't need to take the whole case.

- I'm in a hurry to deliver it. - Hurry? Do you know the market price?

It's high quality! Don't forget to raise the price!

- Open it. - Yes.

- Excellent kung fu skills. - Not really.

You'll find the best kung fu at the Shaolin Temple.

- Master Ho, we can invite them to join us. - Yes!

Shaolin monks don't interfere in worldly matters.

If the Shaolin Temple could teach kung fu to laymen,

people would be able to stand up to the Manchus.

How great that would be!

The South Gate, Mount Yue.

Here… it's here.

General Tien.

Arise.

Approach.

Recently, we managed to suppress the rebels,

but we found this on their leaders.

It's Zheng Cheng-gong's edict.

ORDER

What have you been doing?

There must be scores of Zheng's men hiding in Guangzhou!

We must capture these rebels, using any means, and kill them all!

Only death will deter them!

Who's he?

No idea. He's secretive. Maybe he's a spy.

I'm innocent. I'm just a delivery boy. Look, I've brought dried fish…

Silence!

"Lord Zheng, patriotic rebels…"

- Who told you to bring this here? - No one…

Why do you ask?

We'll make you talk, boy!

We'll take you back with us

and torture you with Manchu methods, one after another.

We'll see whether you'll talk then.

I… I'll talk.

No need to torture me.

I… I'll tell you.

There's someone…

Tang San-yao…

You can…

You can take your time torturing me… if you like!

Master Ho, I saw a squad of Manchu troops, over 100 men, blockading our alley.

Huh? Master Ho, what shall we do?

We must remain calm and stay alert.

Yan-ping, let them hide in your home.

Master Ho, what about you?

Come on!

- Master Ho… - Go quickly!

- What about you? - Hurry! Quickly!

Master, look.

Please have mercy and tell them to stop.

- Please tell them to stop. - Silence!

General's orders, no dried fish can be kept here!

What is your relationship to Liu Yude?

- He's my son. - Bring him here.

He's not at home. Why do you want him?

We've recently uncovered a number of spies.

One is a teacher, another is his pupil.

Liu Yude is a student at that school.

We shall capture him and torture him.

Sir, the young master would never do such a thing!

- Please have mercy… - How do you know he wouldn't?

Sir, we can talk it over…

Father!

Yude, run quickly!

Young master, run, run!

Run, young master!

You want to rebel?

Yude, run! Run!

My son! He's innocent!

Liu Yude, up here quickly.

- My son is innocent! My son! - Move it!

- Change your clothes at once. - But I…

Everyone in school uniform will be arrested.

I wonder what's happened to my home.

You two try to find a hiding place first, we can find out later.

Right, let's go now.

What has happened to my home?

- Your home… your… - Tell me!

All the houses on your street were cordoned off by troops.

What about my father?

Father! Father!

Don't be sad. It's the same with my home.

I wish I had kung fu skills.

If I had known such a day would pass, I wouldn't have gone to school.

I could have fought with them if I had learned kung fu!

Education teaches us right from wrong.

What's the use of that? We can't talk sense with the Manchus!

We can't stay in this town anymore.

I heard that the center of martial arts is…

The Shaolin Temple!

We're lucky that we made it.

Let's go straight on.

Hey! Did you see a group of men riding by?

Why don't you answer me?

Go!

Dismount and chase them!

These two must be traitors.

One man guard the horses. The rest of you, go after them!

Hurry!

Go!

Liu Yude, mount up!

Liu Yude?

Liu Yude, go now! Go!

Don't let him escape!

Liu Yude… good luck.

Please… give me some water.

Thank you, sir.

How far is it to the Shaolin Temple?

It's not far, just up the mountain.

But you don't look like you'll make it.

I will… even if I have to crawl there.

Sit down, sit down.

I don't think you'll make it.

The Shaolin monks buy their food here every day.

That's their cart over there.

Come on, hurry up. Quickly.

Let's go.

- Why is it so heavy? - No idea.

Come on. You'll be punished if you're late. Let's go, quick!

Push harder!

SOUTH COURT

Hurry up.

Park the cart there.

Come and lend a hand, everybody!

Why are you standing there? Come here and help, hurry!

Take that to the kitchen. Be quick about it!

Why are you so slow? Hurry up!

- What's going on? - What's that man doing here?

Stay calm, he can still be saved. Bring him inside, and I'll tell the Abbot.

- Sir, the Abbot would like to see you. - Thank you.

This temple is a place for Buddhists to better themselves, not for shelter.

I have noticed that you're vengeful and emotional. You're no Buddhist.

Please leave the temple as soon as you have recovered.

I made a huge effort to come here. I would rather die than leave!

Watch your manners within the temple!

Splendid, splendid…

The very fact that you are here means you have an affinity with the Buddha.

But, Brother Abbot, you should make no exceptions.

He arrived here at the temple in a coma,

but regained consciousness after ten days.

Perseverance in Buddhism warrants his admittance.

The Dharma Law also traveled to the East with such perseverance,

and laid the foundations of the Shaolin Temple.

What are your opinions, Brothers?

You are right, Brother Abbot.

Thank you, Abbot!

Morning, Master.

- Morning, Master. - Morning.

- Morning, Master. - Morning.

San De…

San De?

Morning, Abbot.

How long has it been since your tonsure?

Over a year.

Are you unable to endure your vows of poverty?

No, it's not that, but…

You must hide nothing from the Buddha.

Yes.

Before I arrived here,

I heard that the Shaolin Temple was the center of kung fu.

But for the past year, I have done nothing but clean.

I have received no kung fu teaching.

You may learn kung fu if you wish.

Any monk at the temple may train in the 35 Chambers if they so wish.

If you don't tell us, how would we know that you want to learn?

Why do you want to learn kung fu?

Honestly, Abbot…

…before I came here,

I saw the people oppressed by tyrannical rule.

If they were able to learn Shaolin kung fu,

they would be able to defend themselves against their enemies, therefore…

Have mercy, have mercy.

San De…

Buddhists should not harbor such thoughts.

Do not mention it again.

That's my belief, but I won't mention it again, no matter right or wrong.

Abbot, do such thoughts forbid me from learning kung fu?

There are 35 Chambers of Shaolin. Which chamber do you want to start with?

- Which is the most advanced chamber? - The Ultimate Chamber, of course.

Then that is where I wish to start.

ULTIMATE CHAMBER

Abbot…

Behold, the Buddha teaches:

"In emptiness, there is no form. In form, there is no emptiness."

"No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body or mind."

"No color, sound, smell, taste, touch or thought."

"No vision, nor the realm of consciousness."

- "No ignorance." - "Nor end of ignorance."

"No old age or death."

"Nor is there suffering."

"Nor the cause and cessation of it."

"Not even wisdom… Not even wisdom…"

Leave!

"Not even wisdom to attain."

"Attainment too is emptiness."

"The mind is without hindrance."

"Holding onto nothing whatsoever, but dwelling in Prajna wisdom…"

"…one is rid of fear, freed of delusive hindrance…"

"…and reaches clearest Nirvana…"

"…where peace and tranquility lie."

"The heart is calm and we fear nothing."

How often do you recite the holy sutras?

Well, I… I…

Leave!

Abbot, I came to learn martial arts.

Get out!

Elder Brother, no one learns martial arts in the Ultimate Chamber.

It is the most advanced realm within the Shaolin Temple.

You wouldn't understand.

Elder Brother, I'm willing to start from the 35th Chamber.

35TH CHAMBER REFECTORY

San De, you must cross the pond to enter the refectory.

Yes.

Hey, Brother, is this the 35th Chamber?

Be quiet! You'll go hungry if you're late.

"You shall be cleansed and your steps shall be steady.

"Do not enter the hall if you are unclean."

How dare you enter this dining hall?

- Abbot, I want… - To eat congee?

Come with me.

Stand on the logs.

Jump.

Turn around.

Eat!

TAKE REFUGE IN THE BUDDHA

Get out. You're hopeless.

You can clean all the bowls and chopsticks!

The wall may be low, but the Buddha's power is great.

He's fallen in!

Don't laugh at him, he's only a novice.

- Enter the refectory. - Yes.

TAKE REFUGE IN THE BUDDHA

YOU SHALL BE CLEANSED AND YOUR STEPS SHALL BE STEADY

DO NOT ENTER THE HALL IF YOU ARE UNCLEAN

San De, that's amazing!

Concentrate and you shall find a way.

Keep practicing day and night. Go.

Stop!

Wood drifts, its buoyancy is limited.

The harder you step, the faster it sinks.

San De, throw the plate hard into the water.

The plate sinks in water.

Just as you step on the logs, you will sink.

I keep my plate in motion with power, balance and speed.

Power helps speed, while balance keeps your body stable.

Uniformity of mind brings uniformity of maneuver.

You must keep this in mind.

Power… balance… speed.

Power, balance, speed… Right.

- Abbot, I… - Go.

I beg you to teach me, Master.

The 34th Chamber specializes in training the arms.

Fist, palm, knife, sword, stick, spear…

All depend on one's arm strength. Look…

This is the basic exercise. Carry water up the slope.

Pour it down to keep it flowing.

Remember, you must keep your arms straight.

You must carry water every day in order to build up your arm strength.

- Go now. - Yes.

I never thought he'd accomplish it so quickly.

San De!

Don't help the others in their training.

- It'll only ruin them. - Yes.

You've violated our rules. Leave!

- Abbot… - Go!

Go to the 33rd Chamber!

Thank you, Abbot.

This chamber is comparatively easy.

Simply listen to the sound of the temple block.

Each time I hit it, strike the gong.

Abbot, I'm here to learn kung fu, not…

Don't misjudge the bamboo poles.

- Zhihui… - Yes.

The hammer weighs ten catties, and is fitted onto a 12-feet pole.

The weight increases ten catties with the extension of each foot.

A 12-feet pole makes it weigh 120 catties.

How much weight can your wrists bear?

I am willing to try.

It's now ten feet. Make it two feet shorter.

Let's commence.

Keep practicing!

My respects to the Abbot.

So, San De, you've left the Wrist Room?

Yes, the abbot said I could leave.

Good.

You've been training diligently since you joined the temple.

From today, you are exempt from any miscellaneous daily work.

You are promoted to be in charge of the Sutra Room.

Thank you, Abbot.

Brother Abbot, I think that San De is ambitious.

He's not like our Buddhist brothers.

Well, here in this temple, it is peaceful,

but outside in the world, it is turbulent.

We may well need someone like him.

I humbly ask for your guidance, Abbot.

Stand between the two sticks of burning incense.

Yes.

Anyone training in martial arts must be sharp-eyed.

Keep your eyes on the flame.

When the candle moves,

your eyes must follow.

But remember this,

your head must not move.

Commence.

I told you not to move your head.

Again!

That's right, the target has disappeared.

But still, the eyes should not move.

Eyes be bright, limbs be nimble.

This is encapsulated in the phrase: "Stay alert and react fast."

Yes.

Turn around.

San De, you must strike the reflecting blocks.

I've been an abbot here for six years,

and you're my most outstanding pupil yet!

Thank you, Abbot.

HEAD POWER

- Continue! - Yes.

Don't lower your head! Stand up!

Hands on your waist. Use your head to strike the sand bags.

- Then burn incense before the Buddha. - Yes.

Again!

- Get up! - Abbot, I…

Collapsing so soon? Get up now!

Continue. Go on.

Abbot…

San De, if it hadn't been for two years of arduous training,

you wouldn't have passed through this alley.

San De, the head is the most important part of your body,

but also the last phase of strength training.

After head training, you can learn to fight and use weapons.

Offer incense.

Use your strength! Harder!

Harder! Get up!

Come on!

Get up!

You have set a new record in completing ten chambers

and learning the basic skills in 25 months.

This is a first in the history of the Shaolin Temple.

I couldn't have done it without my teachers.

From now on, you can select any chamber to learn various skills,

such as the fist, sword and stick.

Yes.

Justice Abbot, I shall make him head of the Dharma House.

- San De, meet the two Head Abbots. - Yes.

BENT WRIST PUNCH

Stop.

Continue.

San De…

LEG CHAMBER

Abbot.

San De, very good.

SWORD CHAMBER

Turn around faster!

Well done.

BUDDHA

San De…

THE POWER OF THE BUDDHA KNOWS NO BOUNDS

San De, it is highly commendable of you

to have mastered the Shaolin kung fu skills of all 35 Chambers

in just five years.

Now I shall make you a Deputy Abbot

in any of the 35 Chambers you choose.

Brother Abbot, San De's post is high enough,

seeing as he's been promoted eight times in five years.

With his present skills, he is qualified to be a Deputy Abbot.

Brother Abbot, Shaolin kung fu has existed for a thousand years,

we must not make hasty decisions.

That is your opinion…

Let him pick any weapon to fight against me.

If he beats me, he can become an abbot.

You heard what Justice Abbot said. He wishes to compete with you.

- What do you think? - I dare not.

It's my idea.

If you win, you may take charge of any chamber.

With your permission, then, Justice Abbot.

Exercise caution!

Thank you, Justice Abbot. You have defeated me.

You may challenge me any time.

San De, how many times did I touch you?

Seventeen times.

I could have injured you with the blades.

You are right, Master.

I shall continue with my training.

Brother Abbot, I don't think he will ever defeat the Justice Abbot.

You never know.

What weapon is San De using?

A three-sectional staff that he made himself.

Very good. That move was not bad.

Carry on!

Abbot, are you all right?

San De, I still have my weapon.

Excuse me.

Brother Abbot, San De can take charge of any chamber.

San De, you may choose to take charge

of any of the 35 Chambers of the Shaolin Temple,

except the Ultimate Chamber.

Your attainment in Buddhism is not advanced enough for that yet.

Abbot, I've not yet made up my mind.

Very well, I shall give you three days to decide.

Thank you, Abbot.

There are only 35 Chambers in the Shaolin Temple.

There is no 36th Chamber.

I understand that. But I'd like to create one.

A 36th Chamber…

It is a great pity that the Shaolin martial arts

are confined solely to the temple.

It should be widely taught to all outside Shaolin.

That is my idea for a new chamber,

a place to teach martial arts to laymen.

We do not involve ourselves in worldly affairs.

Nor do we admit secular pupils. You must reconsider.

Abbot, this affects the handing down of Shaolin martial arts to posterity.

Please let me enroll any promising youths and train them in the 36th Chamber.

Nonsense! How dare you talk back!

- I don't mean to insult you. - Silence!

- I must ask you to reconsider, Abbot. - Justice Abbot…

Yes.

Disciple San De's behavior warrants punishment. See to it.

Yes.

San De, you have violated the rules of the temple.

Therefore, you must collect alms.

Don't return until the ledger is full. Do you understand?

Yes.

Abbot, I deserve to be punished.

You leave tomorrow morning.

XIANG TAI

Master, you wish to pray for Xiang Tai?

They all perished.

And they're buried in the Eastern Cemetery.

You should go there and pray for them.

Uncle Wei, may you rest in peace.

We will fulfil your mission to overthrow the Manchus.

Hong Xiguan! I knew you'd be here to bury your accomplice.

Run!

Just try an escape.

Bring it on. One kill covers my cost, two kills brings me a profit. Come on!

Fine, try to kill us by all means.

Tang San-yao, you're an evil man.

Goodness will be rewarded, vice will be punished.

Out of the way, damn monk!

Master, please stay out of this.

So you're an accomplice, too!

Tang San-yao! You remember seven years ago?

How you seized my school and shop and killed my whole family?

You're Liu Yude… A fugitive! Get him!

Go and help your brothers.

You're a Buddhist monk, show mercy.

Even the Buddha defeats evil.

A monk should not kill.

A monk cannot, but I can!

Tang San-yao, you've killed my men.

These thousand stabs are for them!

Merciful Buddha…

Tang San-yao, may our martyrs look down upon your dead form!

Master, I wish to learn martial arts.

Please accept me as your disciple.

I have journeyed from the Shaolin Temple to enroll any promising youths.

Xiguan, is Tianda still in Guangzhou?

Yes.

His hands are stained with the blood of the Han people.

If he is not eliminated, thousands of martyrs will never rest in peace.

We must plan well.

Let's find a hideout first. We must not act rashly.

Do you know any other ambitious youths?

Yes, Tong Qianjin is one.

Tong Qianjin, the Commander orders you to make a batch of wheels.

Hey! And they are to be delivered within a month.

- Impossible. It will take one year. - One year? Are you turning me down?

Do you want to join the dead?

Want my advice? I'll teach you to be smarter.

Beat him down!

Will you make the wheels or not?

Over my dead body!

You're right, it is better to use the haft.

Help me!

Help me!

- You still want the wheels made? - No, no!

- Damn you! - Well done! Well done!

Master! Master!

Master! Master!

Master, let me follow you.

- Why? - I admire you. Please teach me.

Please take me as your disciple!

Tong Qianjin, what's wrong with you?

You said you would bow down to no one and would challenge even the gods.

Why are you bowing to a monk?

What do you know? He's not a monk!

He's a Bodhisattva.

His few words helped me to scare the Manchus away!

So, he's a living Bodhisattva?

I'm just a humble monk from the Shaolin Temple.

I simply taught you to focus on your strength.

They have trained in kung fu and you have not.

Using a heavy weapon slows you down

and puts you at a disadvantage.

You're right.

Lu A-Cai, are you convinced now?

Master, it makes sense.

Lu A-Cai, you can't move now, can you?

Lu A-Cai, don't act so hastily.

Master, I'm convinced, I'm convinced.

Master… I'm convinced.

- Are you sure now? - I am, I'm convinced.

Master, please come in for some tea.

Master, I really am convinced.

How did Tang San-yao die?

You still haven't found out?

He was stabbed by a knife.

I want that man… I want the man who stabbed him.

Yes, we're investigating.

- Kill all the suspects. Kill them all. - Yes.

Be on the alert, and don't follow in the footsteps of Tang San-yao.

Yes.

This is General Tianda's residence.

He patrols the city every day.

He has to pass down this street to reach the city gates.

There are shops on both sides of the street…

…which will make it difficult for us to get to him.

Any households on this street?

Yes.

There is a rice mill.

The rear of the mill faces the General's residence.

- How many people live there? - Only one, it seems.

MILLER SIX

Sir…

May the Buddha's name be praised.

Sir, I…

Hey, Master! No one comes collecting alms this late. Away with you!

Hey, Master! Why are you acting like a brigand? Go away. Go away!

What do you mean by that?

- Please excuse me, sir. - What do you want?

- May I know your name, sir? - Eh?

My father died without giving me a name,

so I have no name.

I started milling rice when I was six,

so they called me "Miller Six".

I'm San De from the Shaolin Temple.

Oh… the Shaolin Temple?

People say that monks from Shaolin are excellent at kung fu. No wonder.

- I have trained for several years. - Oh…

Having milled rice for so many years…

…I have developed a very powerful pair of legs.

Want to test me?

I've drunk a bit too much today.

But your footwork's not bad.

Hey, let's go in for a drink. Come on.

Miller, you can't stay here much longer.

Why not?

Very soon, something major is going to happen

at General Tianda's residence.

Oh? What is it?

General Tianda's going to die there.

How can you say something like that? Aren't you afraid of being executed?

Leave here at once, will you?

Shaolin, Laolin, wherever you're from, I don't care!

Please, just leave. I beg you.

The Manchus have killed so many people.

- Don't you want to fight back? - Eh? I'm just a simple rice miller.

No matter how bad things are, what can I do? I'd rather drink.

People continue to suffer because too many people have that attitude.

Watch what you're saying!

I want to borrow your house in order to deal with Tianda.

No, no. If you do that, I won't be able to live here anymore.

Don't worry. I'll take you to the Shaolin Temple.

- Move it! Hurry! Move! - Come here, on your knees!

Lord Chang, we caught them near the cemetery.

- Kill them all! - Yes!

Stop!

Lord Chang, I killed Tang San-yao. They had nothing to do with it.

You?

A monk? How did you kill Tang San-yao?

- With this. - Take him!

Where did you learn kung fu?

In the Shaolin Temple.

- Report to the General! - Yes, sir!

Master, we're outnumbered.

There are so many of them.

And they wake me up every morning, it's very irritating!

Hey, Miller Six, could you keep the noise down?

No, I can't. I'm Miller Six.

This is rice flour.

General Tien,

Lord Tang and Lord Chang are famous throughout Guangzhou for their kung fu.

- Their failure this time is because… - Silence!

If more monks come here, they'll foment a rebellion in Guangzhou!

Yes, sir…

Tomorrow morning, I'll muster a squad to hunt down this monk.

Even if I have to go to the Shaolin Temple!

GENERAL'S RESIDENCE

Go, go! Run!

Hand me a sword!

I can't believe that a monk would join the rebels.
