Five Deadly Venoms Script


  

  

 

                   

Medicine. Hurry up!



 

                   

Medicine!



 

                   

Master



 

                   

For all these years,



 

                   

I've been trying to save myself



 

                   

Now I think I can't make it



 

                   

Yang De



 

                   

You've been studying for   years.

You know



 

                   

I'm the head of the Five Venoms House



  

                   

Yes



  

                   

It is a well known enemy

of the martial arts world



  

                   

We live here quietly



  

                   

Over here we may talk about

the House openly



  

                   

But when you enter the boxer's world



  

                   

A mere mention of the name of the House



  

                   

...is likely to put you in great danger



  

                   

Why?



  

                   

We didn't do anything wrong



  

                   

Did we?



  

                   

You don't understand



  

                   

Before you came here,



  

                   

the House had accepted   students



  

                   

at different times



  

                   

I have   seniors?



  

                   

What are their names?



  

                   

Where are they?



  

                   

When our student leaves here,



  

                   

the first thing to do

is to have a new name



  

                   

They must keep...



  

                   

their backgrounds as secret as possible



  

                   

These   students of mine



  

                   

some of them didn't know each other



  

                   

You learned part of the...



  

                   

martial arts as they had learned here



  

                   

But your skills

aren't sophisticated enough



  

                   

I won't live any longer



  

                   

After you learn their skills



  

                   

I want you to do something for me



  

                   

First I will let you know in detail



  

                   

...the skills I've taught them



  

                   

These are the art of the House



  

                   

It used to be the training room



  

                   

You have five seniors



  

                   

I will start with the eldest one



  

                   

He's Zhang Yiaotian



  

                   

He's practicing the Centipede Style



  

                   

His nickname is "Thousand Hands"



  

                   

He is well-known for his quick moves



  

                   

It's like he's having thousands of hands



  

                   

The second one is called Qi Dong



  

                   

He's practicing the Snake style



  

                   

He's nicknamed, "Snake Spirit Dude"



  

                   

The right is the head of the snake,

on the left the tail



  

                   

He's famous for his responsive moves,



  

                   

fastjust like a snake



  

                   

The third one is called Gao Ji



  

                   

He's practicing the Scorpion style



  

                   

In this style,

the hand moves like a cutter



  

                   

the feet like a scorpion's



  

                   

I accepted him later than them



  

                   

The eldest and the second

didn't know each other



  

                   

Before them,



  

                   

I took in your fourth and fifth seniors



  

                   

The fourth one is called Meng Tianxia



  

                   

He's older than the second and third one



  

                   

He's learning the Gecko style



  

                   

He's trained to have a light body

and strong legs



  

                   

So he could crawl with ease



  

                   

He also made use of the rebound force



  

                   

...to enhance his own power



  

                   

Your fifth senior Liang Shen



  

                   

He's practicing the Toad style



  

                   

Meng and Liang didn't meet



  

                   

the other seniors as well



  

                   

The Toad Work at its full strength



  

                   

can resist the attack of

swords and spears



  

                   

It can break hard objects too



  

                   

You came here for a very short time



  

                   

I made a mistake

to teach you all these skills



  

                   

As such,

you're not good at any one of them



  

                   

If you were to fight against

any of your seniors



  

                   

You're no match for them



  

                   

I don't have time

left to teach you further



  

                   

You've got to combine your own skills



  

                   

...with any work of the House



  

                   

Then you may take on any of them



  

                   

Our Five Venoms House

has done many bad things



  

                   

I don't know

if your seniors behave themselves



  

                   

...in the boxer's world outside



  

                   

It's my decision to abort



  

                   

the Five Venoms House



  

                   

Now the responsibility is yours



  

                   

Master, I...



  

                   

You're to finish them for me



  

                   

You'll leave here tomorrow



  

                   

...to locate the   of them



  

                   

and keep an eye on their behavior



  

                   

You may leave, the one who...



  

                   

behaves well, alone



   

                   

and take on the one who doesn't



   

                   

Master



   

                   

It's a big, big world outside of people



   

                   

They've changed their name already



   

                   

Besides,



   

                   

unless it reaches a very critical moment,



   

                   

we won't reveal our skills



   

                   

Master



   

                   

You must do it for me



   

                   

I promise you I'll



   

                   

I know it's a difficult task



   

                   

If they discover your background,



   

                   

you'll be in great danger



   

                   

Master



   

                   

My safety isn't important



   

                   

Where should I go?



   

                   

There's one more disciple of our House



   

                   

He happens to be my junior classmate



   

                   

But he had retired from the boxer's world



   

                   

He still possesses

some precious treasures



   

                   

They're the ill-gotten gains of the House



   

                   

He leads a quiet life in a small town



   

                   

At present

I just know the name of the town



   

                   

but not exactly his name or identity



   

                   

You find him and ask him...



   

                   

to donate the treasure for charity



   

                   

My intuition tells me



   

                   

the treasure is the source of disasters



   

                   

I think the   senior schoolmates of yours



   

                   

...are trying to look for it



   

                   

How skillful is he as a boxer?



   

                   

He's no match for your seniors



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

Yuanxin, you're a policeman



   

                   

You better behave yourself



   

                   

You shouldn't eat irresponsibly



   

                   

lt'll be greatly appreciated



   

                   

...if you give me face



   

                   

I've always owed you many a favour



   

                   

Yuanxin, don't ruin your reputation



   

                   

because of petty gains



   

                   

Please spare me goodness



   

                   

next time when Mr. Ma isn't around



   

                   

Ma is a disciplined man



   

                   

I can't take advantage because of him



   

                   

No kidding, Mr. He



   

                   

What is it?



   

                   

The habitual gambler lost money to me



   

                   

Screw you



   

                   

Master



   

                   

Who were the two men?



   

                   

Well, they're Mr. He



   

                   

...and Mr. Ma



   

                   

They're the officers of the court



   

                   

Mr. He is very kind



   

                   

and willing to help



   

                   

If I want to find someone



   

                   

I'm the right person to ask



   

                   

I've been living here for    years



   

                   

I know not only the people,



   

                   

but also the dogs and cats



   

                   

The person I'm looking for



   

                   

is about    years old



   

                   

He should be a wealthy man,



   

                   

a good fighter



   

                   

and...



   

                   

No idea, right?



   

                   

You're bluffing



   

                   

Wake up



   

                   

Who is the banker? I'm making a bet



   

                   

Yuanxin



   

                   

We're civil servants



   

                   

We ought to present good ideals



   

                   

Gambling isn't allowed.

Let's have a drink



   

                   

Okay, He is the boss



   

                   

Bullshit



   

                   

What are you doing here?



   

                   

Go...



   

                   

I'm just looking outside,



   

                   

can't I?



   

                   

Damn you...



   

                   

Get lost



   

                   

Don't look down on him



   

                   

Come in. What do you want?



   

                   

He...



   

                   

Please



   

                   

I'm sorry



   

                   

I'm expecting someone



   

                   

Suit yourself



   

                   

Okay



   

                   

What do you want?



   

                   

I want this, this and this



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

It's you!



   

                   

Waiter



   

                   

Bring me nothing but a bottle of wine



   

                   

It's a good idea



   

                   

It's easier for a civil servant



   

                   

...to look for someone



   

                   

There are more chances to find him



   

                   

It's been a year



   

                   

We've been making a thorough search



   

                   

for all the families



   

                   

There's still no clue



   

                   

Master could be wrong



   

                   

What about you?



   

                   

Do you know

where the other   seniors are?



   

                   

I don't know



   

                   

If they know



   

                   

master's schoolmate is here,



   

                   

it's possible they would have come



   

                   

Very likely



   

                   

Because of this,



   

                   

master wanted us to find him first



   

                   

and ask him to donate the treasure



   

                   

so that the source of disaster

can be wiped out



   

                   

You shouldn't be that mean and selfish



   

                   

The students of Five Venoms House



   

                   

dare not reveal their backgrounds



   

                   

Let's go



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Senior



   

                   

Qidong, you are good



   

                   

If I hadn't heard the news...



   

                   

I'd have assumed that you've already



   

                   

...taken the treasure



   

                   

So the news confirmed...



   

                   

he's living in this town



   

                   

Who?



   

                   

You'd never have imagined this. It's...



   

                   

Sir, still not going home?



   

                   

I've not finished my work



   

                   

So I have to try harder



   

                   

What takes you so long to open the door?



   

                   

Respected Sirs



   

                   

I'm just a poor scholar



   

                   

There's no money in my house



   

                   

Please leave me alone



   

                   

Uncle, stop pretending



   

                   

No one will expect you would work



   

                   

as a book-keeper in a government office



   

                   

You must be the Snake



   

                   

Usually you never used a sword



   

                   

Okay. You're the Thousand Hands



   

                   

You're no longer the member of the House



   

                   

Hand in the treasure



   

                   

We want only the treasure



   

                   

...but not your life



   

                   

You can't fool me



   

                   

Did you ever let the victims stay alive?



   

                   

I know I'll surely be dead



   

                   

But at least you don't want to suffer



   

                   

Shit!



   

                   

I just bet on the wrong side



   

                   

The dices always give me a bad time



   

                   

You overdo it



   

                   

I'll tear down his house



   

                   

I'll find what I want



   

                   

Why are you laughing?



   

                   

It's because you're full of bullshit



   

                   

We're in a big county



   

                   

There is law and order



   

                   

You couldn't mess around like this



   

                   

Thanks to you the whole thing is ruined!



   

                   

What a joke!



   

                   

For all these years

you haven't found a thing



   

                   

It all has to depend on me



   

                   

What are you up to?



   

                   

I'm the eldest senior.

You're the second one



   

                   

Even if I did something wrong,



   

                   

it's none of your business



   

                   

You aren't the only one

to find the treasure



   

                   

Don't forget there's also  rd brother



   

                   

Gao Jin? The Scorpion?



   

                   

Yuan is getting worse and worse



   

                   

We've an emergency



   

                   

He should have been here to report



   

                   

Why are you staring at your superior?



   

                   

Do you know the rules?



   

                   

Sir, it's no good



   

                   

Yuan and all his family are dead



   

                   

Hurry up



   

                   

They all got killed



   

                   

We're going to investigate this



   

                   

Where's Yuanxin He?



   

                   

He's probably in the pub



   

                   

Get him back now



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

No. Don't go back to the office



   

                   

Go directly to Yuan's house



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

We're good fighters for nothing



   

                   

We dare not show our skills,



   

                   

hiding and shirking away like morons



   

                   

We're students of Five Venoms Clan



   

                   

What are you looking at?



   

                   

Haven't you seen anyone

practice inner power?



   

                   

Brother He



   

                   

There's a serious case



   

                   

Yuan and his relatives were all killed



   

                   

Let's go



   

                   

Yuan, the bookkeeper?



   

                   

Who's he?



   

                   

You wait here



   

                   

I'll be right back



   

                   

Who is he?



   

                   

A friend I just met



   

                   

So the Yuan family was murdered



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

He isn't rich



   

                   

What could be the motive?



   

                   

Here...



   

                   

You beggar, you want to die?



   

                   

Menfa



   

                   

You're always so enthusiastic



   

                   

whenever you play the dice



   

                   

What happened?



   

                   

Nothing



   

                   

Nothing at all



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

I need to talk to you



   

                   

I'm busy



   

                   

It's important



   

                   

Talk to me later



   

                   

Do you believe I saw...



   

                   

the one who murdered the Yuan family?



   

                   

Stop daydreaming



   

                   

You'd be dead if you saw the murderer



   

                   

The murderer didn't notice me



   

                   

Yuan was a poor scholar



   

                   

Why'd someone be after his entire family?



   

                   

The murderer not only killed them,



   

                   

but also turned over his house



   

                   

as if it's hiding some great treasure



   

                   

Treasure?



   

                   

The skull of a male victim was broken



   

                   

The legs are broken off in the knees



   

                   

There're         broken ribs...



   

                   

How many ribs were broken exactly?



   

                   

Sir, all the ribs were broken



   

                   

It's an extremely serious case



   

                   

If I can't crack it,



   

                   

I'll lose my post

as the head of the county



   

                   

I will do my best



   

                   

The killer was ruthless...



   

                   

probably not a local



   

                   

I've ordered my staff to keep an eye



   

                   

on the strangers for the last few days



   

                   

Yuanxin He



   

                   

You should be a standby at the office



   

                   

Where did you go?



   

                   

Sir



   

                   

I'm making an investigation



   

                   

Yinxin, what did you find?



   

                   

A boy's body. Broken bone in the neck



   

                   

Let's take a look



   

                   

What are you doing?



   

                   

Just having a look



   

                   

Whoever is making noise

will be beaten with a stick



   

                   

Order from the governor



   

                   

Whoever is making noise

will be beaten with a stick



   

                   

Go...



   

                   

Go



   

                   

So it's the Yuan murder case



   

                   

You've got to work on the case

round the clock



   

                   

This case must be solved within    days



   

                   

With the passing of each day

would be caned    times



   

                   

  days    times. Adjourn



   

                   

Ma, there's not any clue at all



   

                   

Probably it can't be tackled

even in half a year



   

                   

We're policemen



   

                   

If we pass the due date...



   

                   

what can we do?



   

                   

I'll be punished with the beating as well



   

                   

What can we do?



   

                   

Stop it



   

                   

I've found out something



   

                   

What is it?



   

                   

I don't mean to look down on you guys



   

                   

You're not able to break this case



   

                   

I have to get some help



   

                   

Ma, I want to have a day off



   

                   

A day off at this moment?



   

                   

I'm not going to have fun



   

                   

...but to work on the case



   

                   

I never expected...



   

                   

uncle to work in a government office



   

                   

No wonder we couldn't locate him



   

                   

Who did it?



   

                   

The skull and ribs were all broken



   

                   

It's the work of The Thousand Hands



   

                   

Broken organs and serious bleeding



   

                   

It's the work of The Snake



   

                   

The Eldest and second seniors?



   

                   

Master longed to get rid of them



   

                   

I must get them for whatever reasons



   

                   

Don't worry. I must...



   

                   

Let me go...



   

                   

Let go of me...



   

                   

Without a mask?!



   

                   

Why are you hiding outside?



   

                   

I need to see Mr. He



   

                   

What are you practicing?



   

                   

It hurts much worse than hitting a rock



   

                   

This is...



   

                   

Mind your words



   

                   

Someone said he'd seen the murderer



   

                   

Who? You?



   

                   

Not me. It's Menfa



   

                   

Okay. You may go on



   

                   

Oh god! What should I say?



   

                   

You want to tell me in the daytime.

Right?



   

                   

Tell me who the murderer is



   

                   

The office didn't offer a reward



   

                   

I may give you    taels of silver



   

                   

Mr. He...



   

                   

I'll tell you. No need to scare me



   

                   

The murderer has grown a big beard



   

                   

I have seen him in Hong's house



   

                   

Wentong Hong?



   

                   

I'm scared I'll be in danger



   

                   

Don't worry



   

                   

You may stay in the prison for a few days



   

                   

Hong? I've met him a few times



   

                   

Is he the Thousand Hands



   

                   

...or the Snake?



   

                   

No one knows now



   

                   

He's a wealthy businessman here



   

                   

I can't make a reckless move



   

                   

We've to wait till he leaves his house



   

                   

Who's the murderer?



   

                   

Thousand Hands, Snake or Scorpion?



   

                   

I don't care



   

                   

The underlings in the office are no match



   

                   

I'll take care of Hong



   

                   

You help me to arrest the murderer



   

                   

Okay



   

                   

Wentong Hong?



   

                   

Brother He, did you get it wrong?



   

                   

He's a good friend of the governor



   

                   

He's close to the officers

in the province



   

                   

This is the difficult part



   

                   

Let's wait outside



   

                   

When the murderer is out,



   

                   

I'll try and detain Hong inside



   

                   

You guys do yourjob



   

                   

I know you can't arrest the murderer



   

                   

I've asked someone to help



   

                   

Who?



   

                   

A new friend; a very good boxer



   

                   

What?



   

                   

I've made contribution



   

                   

Can I go with you?



   

                   

You wait here



   

                   

It's better to hide somewhere

further away



   

                   

I got it



   

                   

Mr. He...



   

                   

What brings you here?



   

                   

Something really poisonous



   

                   

What kind of poison then?



   

                   

It could be the poison of the centipede,



   

                   

snake or scorpion



   

                   

What's the riddle?



   

                   

I don't understand



   

                   

I don't care if or not you understand



   

                   

The truth will be revealed soon



   

                   

Here he is



   

                   

Buddy, he's the criminal



   

                   

What did I do?



   

                   

You murdered    people of the Yuan family



   

                   

I'm called Tao Li now



   

                   

What is your real name?



   

                   

The Toad style?



   

                   

Since you know me



   

                   

you've to show me your skills



   

                   

What kind of blade do you want?



   

                   

Pretending doesn't work



   

                   

You're the Thousand Hands,

our eldest senior



   

                   

Thanks. Please go to the office with me



   

                   

No, thanks



   

                   

The eldest and fifth seniors appear



   

                   

I wonder the rest of the  ...



   

                   

Stop



   

                   

We got it



   

                   

We got the murderer



   

                   

The lord will hold a court session



   

                   

Mr. Hong, do you want to take a seat?



   

                   

It's nothing interesting to watch



   

                   

It is, but if the murderer...



   

                   

makes a statement of his accomplice



   

                   

lt'll be interesting



   

                   

Yuanxin He



   

                   

Yes, sir



   

                   

What can I do for you?



   

                   

Kneel down



   

                   

You lawless villain,



   

                   

confess now



   

                   

I did nothing wrong.

I've nothing to confess



   

                   

Bring Menfa



   

                   

Bring Menfa



   

                   

The night the murder case happened



   

                   

did you see this man?



   

                   

It's him



   

                   

Get the punishment tools ready



   

                   

Hurry, get the tong sticks



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

It's a wrong accusation



   

                   

Shanhui Tan,

you'll confess sooner or later



   

                   

You've no need to suffer



   

                   

Why should I confess?



   

                   

I just have to bear the torture this time



   

                   

Adjourn



   

                   

Sir



   

                   

How dare you, Yuanxin He?



   

                   

Third brother



   

                   

Fifth brother is coming



   

                   

If it's not because of him



   

                   

the eldest wouldn't be arrested



   

                   

You want to shift the blame on him



   

                   

Get rid of him

or I won't have a good sleep



   

                   

Fifth brother practices the Toad style



   

                   

It's not easy to get rid of him



   

                   

We'll do it quietly



   

                   

You arrange the trap



   

                   

It seems that

uncle didn't get the treasure



   

                   

It could be merely a rumor



   

                   

We spent years of effort for nothing



   

                   

What's the problem?



   

                   

In this small town,



   

                   

we're like kings



   

                   

Master



   

                   

What?



   

                   

Mr. Wang is here



   

                   

That quick?



   

                   

Bring him in



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Please



   

                   

It's a pleasure to have you here,

Mr. Wang



   

                   

Please sit



   

                   

Please



   

                   

The murderer in Yuan's case was arrested



   

                   

I know



   

                   

Here's a money order

for      tales silver



   

                   

This is a very big case



   

                   

I can't make a decision



   

                   

Don't worry. You'll lose your post



   

                   

I would if I couldn't catch the murderer



   

                   

You may find someone to be a scapegoat



   

                   

Don't worry. This man is...



   

                   

a well-known boxer



   

                   

We're not looking for people

at random to do it



   

                   

It's like you're doing my work



   

                   

You're only looking for money



   

                   

So don't take it too seriously



   

                   

It doesn't matter who makes the decision



   

                   

One more thing



   

                   

You have to send Yuanxin He

somewhere else



   

                   

I know



   

                   

You may have Guang Lin to do it



   

                   

Sir, what's the matter?



   

                   

This is Mr. Hong



   

                   

Yes. Mr. Hong



   

                   

I need you to do something



   

                   

Just listen to Mr. Hong's order



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Mr. Hong



   

                   

Are you letting me go?



   

                   

I need to talk to Menfa



   

                   

Only two of us



   

                   

No problem



   

                   

This is the easiest way



   

                   

Right. Take your time



   

                   

Menfa,

you're the prime witness of the case



   

                   

You're the only one who saw the murderer



   

                   

The murderer...



   

                   

I told them and the murderer was arrested



   

                   

Something is wrong. How did he look like?



   

                   

He's a fierce man with a big beard



   

                   

Not correct



   

                   

He's a young man, about    years old



   

                   

Strong and beardless



   

                   

No. He has a big beard



   

                   

Say it again



   

                   

How did the murderer look like?



   

                   

A man with a big beard



   

                   

No, a young man of   



   

                   

And?



   

                   

Strong and beardless



   

                   

It's clear this time



   

                   

Will you speak the same in court?



   

                   

I understand



   

                   

I'll say it clearly in court



   

                   

Bring Yuanxin He



   

                   

Sir



   

                   

Sir



   

                   

I need you to send an important letter



   

                   

to the province city. You leave now



   

                   

Sir, it's not my work



   

                   

Do you refuse my order?



   

                   

We must detain Tan carefully



   

                   

I know he has companions outside



   

                   

Enough. Stop it



   

                   

The letter is very important



   

                   

I need you to deliver it quickly



   

                   

I'll make my way day and night



   

                   

I'll come back very soon



   

                   

Leave now



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Bring me duty constable Ma and Lin



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Bring constable Ma and Lin



   

                   

The murderer still goes free



   

                   

You guys evaded your responsibility and



   

                   

arrested innocent people

to take the blame



   

                   

The statement of Menfa...



   

                   

Can we count on his statement?



   

                   

He has revised his statement



   

                   

He stated the murderer is a man of   



   

                   

strong and beardless. He's now



   

                   

in the wine house

on the south side of town



   

                   

Arrest him now



   

                   

He goes free and you'll be in big trouble



   

                   

Where is he?



   

                   

Where is Ma?



   

                   

He's out to carry out the orders



   

                   

Brother He, did Ma tell you?



   

                   

Shit!



   

                   

The lord asked me

to send a letter suddenly



   

                   

I just want to tell Ma about it



   

                   

Which case is Ma working on?



   

                   

The case of Yuan



   

                   

We've arrested Shanhui Tan already



   

                   

It could be...



   

                   

Menfa revised his statement suddenly,



   

                   

saying the murderer wasn't Tan



   

                   

...but a young man of   



   

                   

strong and beardless,

always hanging around



   

                   

at the wine house

in the south side of town



   

                   

Ma is going there with his guys



   

                   

What?



   

                   

Brother Ma



   

                   

Did the murderer make a statement?



   

                   

Not yet



   

                   

But



   

                   

What?



   

                   

Tao Li, are you resisting the arrest?



   

                   

Bullshit, what did I do?



   

                   

According to Menfa's statement,



   

                   

you're the suspect of Yuan's case



   

                   

What rubbish!



   

                   

I don't have time to mess with you



   

                   

Yuanxin He



   

                   

He's the prime suspect of the case



   

                   

What are you doing?



   

                   

I guarantee he is innocent



   

                   

He helped me to arrest Tan



   

                   

How could you be so stupid?



   

                   

The court will judge if he's innocent



   

                   

Your words carry no weight



   

                   

You don't let me arrest him



   

                   

That's a serious offence



   

                   

Yinxin, you better think carefully



   

                   

If Li has nothing to do with the case



   

                   

it won't harm him to stand in the court



   

                   

We won't give him a hard time too



   

                   

I'm not going...



   

                   

to see Tan and Men in court



   

                   

Better make it clear



   

                   

Then the lord can sentence Tan to jail



   

                   

We can'tjust believe Menfa's testimony



   

                   

You must go with us



   

                   

Yes, it's right



   

                   

No, Brother He



   

                   

I didn't experience the dirty tricks



   

                   

in the office, but I heard a lot



   

                   

We're friends after all



   

                   

What do you mean?



   

                   

Go. I guarantee your safety



   

                   

I'll see you here again

after the court session



   

                   

You wait here for me



   

                   

Okay. I'll go just for your sake



   

                   

Please



   

                   

It's a coincidence



   

                   

The lord asked me...



   

                   

to deliver an urgent letter



   

                   

I need to go to the city now



   

                   

Please take care of Li for me



   

                   

He is a boxer



   

                   

He doesn't obey rules of the office



   

                   

Don't worry. You better go



   

                   

It's a serious offence if you fail



   

                   

I helped with the arrest of Tan



   

                   

He's the prime suspect in Yuan's case



   

                   

Did you arrest Tan at Yuan's house?



   

                   

No



   

                   

But...



   

                   

Did someone see him



   

                   

...walking from the Yuan residence?



   

                   

Menfa



   

                   

Present here



   

                   

You must tell us honestly



   

                   

who was walking out from Yuan's house



   

                   

It's him



   

                   

Bastard, what are you talking about?



   

                   

How dare you yell in the court?



   

                   

Menfa, speak up



   

                   

I'll make the final decision



   

                   

It's him



   

                   

Bastard, who ordered you to say this?



   

                   

Arrest him



   

                   

Li, you should have respected the court



   

                   

You tried to frame him with this trap



   

                   

But I am no fool



   

                   

Sir, calm him down first.

When he's locked up,



   

                   

I've a good idea to finish him



   

                   

Stop



   

                   

Li, I know you're somebody



   

                   

You won't be blamed for contempt of court



   

                   

I just want to know



   

                   

Did Menfa tell you



   

                   

Tan walked out from Yuan's house?



   

                   

You speak like a man



   

                   

Menfa did tell Yuanxin He,



   

                   

the chief constable of the county office



   

                   

It's not difficult to prove



   

                   

He's out of town on business



   

                   

He'll be back in a few days



   

                   

Detain all of the suspects



   

                   

Wait till He's back



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Li, please hold on for a few days



   

                   

Everything will be fine when He's back



   

                   

You'll bring trouble upon He

if you refuse



   

                   

Okay, I will listen to you



   

                   

Adjourn



   

                   

Sir, the murderer

is from the House of Five Venoms



   

                   

He's practicing the Toad Style



   

                   

People practicing this style



   

                   

will have a weak point on their body



   

                   

You may swiftly

make a coat of thousand needles



   

                   

You'll get the desired statement



   

                   

What's the coat of thousand needles?



   

                   

This is it



   

                   

It's thousands of sharp needles



   

                   

The body will be flooded by needles



   

                   

No matter where his weak point is,



   

                   

the needle may break it. When it's broken



   

                   

all needles will stab into the body



   

                   

According to the law, this punishment...



   

                   

You want to catch the murderer

or obey the law?



   

                   

Okay. I'll hurry up with the coat



   

                   

Open it



   

                   

Inside



   

                   

Li, you suffered



   

                   

I've brought over the meal for you



   

                   

Please enjoy it



   

                   

Brother Ma, what a friend you are!



   

                   

He is my good friend



   

                   

I take you as my good friend too



   

                   

A civil servant...



   

                   

is hard to be trusted



   

                   

Li, I drink first to show my respect



   

                   

Brother Ma...



   

                   

Never mind. You've to be cautious



   

                   

Li, please



   

                   

Sorry I can't stay here long



   

                   

It's okay



   

                   

He's a good man



   

                   

Serve him properly



   

                   

Yes. Close the gate



   

                   

The coat is being produced swiftly



   

                   

lt'll be ready for

tomorrow's court session



   

                   

But one thing



   

                   

He's very good at martial arts



   

                   

No one could stay close to him



   

                   

Before his inner power is torn down,



   

                   

chains and locks are useless



   

                   

How can we ask him to put this on?



   

                   

I've an idea



   

                   

Sir, we may...



   

                   

Mr. Li, Ma asked me to send you this



   

                   

Sorry to bother you



   

                   

Mr. Li, never mind



   

                   

Please enjoy it



   

                   

Though it's Ma's order...



   

                   

we can't do that in the prison



   

                   

Bring the suspect



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Good idea



   

                   

The Coat can remove my inner power



   

                   

Who knows this trick?



   

                   

What a mean idea!



   

                   

But my body is without weak point



   

                   

You wasted your time



   

                   

It's the Brother Snake



   

                   

The coat must be your idea



   

                   

You think my weak point is in the head



   

                   

But you'll never find out



   

                   

Scorpion spearhead



   

                   

The Scorpion is in the room



   

                   

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 fainted



   

                   

Cuff and lock him up

with the heaviest chain



   

                   

Adjourn



   

                   

Song's Law doesn't allow sentence

without a statement



   

                   

What should we do?



   

                   

Sir, don't worry



   

                   

Everyone saw

Li's rebellious action in court



   

                   

It's already a death sentence



   

                   

We couldn't exclude the Yuan's case



   

                   

Let's accuse him of this



   

                   

I think we've got to use

this punishment again



   

                   

His inner power was torn down



   

                   

He can't take punishment anymore



   

                   

We've used the Thousand Needles Coat



   

                   

What else can we use?



   

                   

Should we use the Red Stomacher?



   

                   

Yes, we should



   

                   

Bring him here



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Li, confess and we won't have to suffer



   

                   

You bastard, I'm not saying anything



   

                   

You can't keep me here forever



   

                   

Li, you should understand

the situation better



   

                   

I understand it very much



   

                   

He is coming back soon



   

                   

Bring witness Menfa and Tang



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Menfa, you said you saw the murderer



   

                   

Is it true?



   

                   

Yes, yes, yes



   

                   

The murderer is a man of about   



   

                   

strong and beardless



   

                   

Is he in the court?



   

                   

Him. It's him



   

                   

What about him?



   

                   

I didn't see him before



   

                   

I've never met a man with beard



   

                   

Tan can go free now



   

                   

The evidence is well-established



   

                   

Li is to be locked up and executed



   

                   

Ask the murderer to sign



   

                   

You may go now



   

                   

You need to be available on hand



   

                   

Why do you have to be so fierce?



   

                   

Your weak point was broken



   

                   

You should have thanked me



   

                   

I'll save your head to be chopped



   

                   

and keep your dead body complete



   

                   

Hang him



   

                   

Report it tomorrow morning



   

                   

saying that he committed suicide



   

                   

Okay



   

                   

Go in



   

                   

All fixed?



   

                   

Fixed



   

                   

Mr. Hong, how could you know?



   

                   

What do you think?



   

                   

Of course



   

                   

The guys inside are from my group



   

                   

No, we all belong to your group



   

                   

Right, we're from the same group



   

                   

I heard constables like you know...



   

                   

how to kill without leaving traces



   

                   

This is called a brain pin



   

                   

The pin goes straight inside the head



   

                   

You won't notice from outside



   

                   

Menfa has gone earlier



   

                   

He's been taken care of

with a throat barb



   

                   

...which slit his throat



   

                   

Can these be compared to yours?



   

                   

All fixed



   

                   

Shit



   

                   

The rack stick in the hall hurt me a lot



   

                   

I was tortured



   

                   

The treasure map still hasn't been found



   

                   

The efforts aren'tjustified



   

                   

I'm afraid the matter isn't over yet



   

                   

Those deserved to die were gone



   

                   

How could it not be over?



   

                   

The Toad is here



   

                   

The Scorpion is our guy



   

                   

No need to mention them



   

                   

Brother Gecko must be somewhere around



   

                   

But he hasn't shown up yet



   

                   

Don't ask me



   

                   

I've just met Brother Scorpion

a few times



   

                   

But what the hell

was he doing in the day?



   

                   

No idea



   

                   

That Brother Gecko



   

                   

Maybe he was dead



   

                   

I always feel that it's not over yet



   

                   

What does Brother Scorpion do?



   

                   

Do you know?



   

                   

Who knows!



   

                   

Maybe he's the one who squeezed you



   

                   

Sir. I'm back



   

                   

You may leave



   

                   

Sir, did Tan make his statement?



   

                   

None of your business. Leave



   

                   

Yes



   

                   

Yuanxin, you're back



   

                   

Take   days off



   

                   

Yuanxin, what's wrong?



   

                   

How's the Yuan case?



   

                   

Yuanxin, the case was over



   

                   

Over?



   

                   

They tell me Tan was set free



   

                   

Li was taken as the murderer



   

                   

Is that what you mean by 'over'?



   

                   

You tell me is it over?



   

                   

Yuanxin, Li made his statement,



   

                   

saying that he's from Five Venoms Clan



   

                   

You should know...



   

                   

the House is an evil organization



   

                   

Where are you going?



   

                   

I'm going to see Li



   

                   

Li committed suicide



   

                   

You just met him lately



   

                   

Why bother to get yourself involved?



   

                   

Are you old friends?



   

                   

Though I just recently met him



   

                   

We must be reasonable



   

                   

Menfa did see Tan



   

                   

Menfa revised his statement



   

                   

Where is Menfa?



   

                   

He died suddenly



   

                   

A neat work



   

                   

Things happened after you left



   

                   

Lin died suddenly too



   

                   

They were all murdered



   

                   

The examiner did thorough work on them



   

                   

The bodies had no wound or damage



   

                   

Wounds can be covered up by money



   

                   

Yuanxin



   

                   

We all did bad things



   

                   

You're the only decent one



   

                   

Menfa's body was just buried



   

                   

You don't believe it



   

                   

You may examine it again



   

                   

No more trouble



   

                   

A letter from my home...



   

                   

saying that my mother is very sick



   

                   

I'll resign soon



   

                   

I'll ask the lord to promote



   

                   

...you as the captain



   

                   

Why bother to ruin your future...



   

                   

because of this trivial matter



   

                   

Trivial matter, eh!



   

                   

Trivial matter



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

Mr. He...



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

All of you get out of here



   

                   

I said, leave me alone



   

                   

Go, go, go



   

                   

Mr. He. I've no choice



   

                   

I didn't touch this     taels of silver



   

                   

Who gave you this?



   

                   

Guang Lin



   

                   

How did Li die?



   

                   

Tissues soaked with water suffocated him



   

                   

Bullshit! Li was a skillful boxer



   

                   

This stupid method can't suffocate him



   

                   

He suffered from punishment in the court



   

                   

His inner power was crushed



   

                   

The tool was produced swiftly



   

                   

I didn't see it before



   

                   

It's called the Thousand Needle Coat



   

                   

The Thousand Needle Coat



   

                   

How did the lord know...



   

                   

it could crush his inner strength?



   

                   

I heard it was Hong's idea



   

                   

When Lin came,



   

                   

the old constable was here too



   

                   

We were very drunk that night



   

                   

Old constable hung himself



   

                   

He always said that being a civil servant



   

                   

we don't drive out the rascals and...



   

                   

protect the people,

but the other way around



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

I've seen the report



   

                   

Lin and Men died suddenly



   

                   

with no wound or damage



   

                   

It's true that there's no wound



   

                   

But I know the causes of their death



   

                   

What are they?



   

                   

Menfa was killed by a throat barb



   

                   

Lin was killed by a brain pin



   

                   

Mr. He



   

                   

If someone spread my words,



   

                   

I'll be surely dead



   

                   

You take this money



   

                   

and leave here immediately



   

                   

The farther the better



   

                   

Thanks, Mr. He



    

                   

How can a gecko resist



    

                   

scorpion, snake and centipede



    

                   

The Five Venoms are out

and the world is settled



    

                   

Let's talk up there



    

                   

You're...



    

                   

How are you, fourth senior?



    

                   

I'm Yang De,

the last student of the master



    

                   

Master had a last will before he died



    

                   

Please talk about this somewhere else



    

                   

Tell me here



    

                   

Explain to me



    

                   

how do you know there were scorpion,



    

                   

snake, centipede and I?



    

                   

I was watching fifth senior



    

                   

catching the Brother Centipede



    

                   

These few days



    

                   

I messed around with the petty officers



    

                   

...gambling and drinking



    

                   

One day in the hall



    

                   

I heard him call Hong The Snake



    

                   

The Toad Power of fifth senior



    

                   

wasn't crushed by the coat



    

                   

but the Scorpion spearhead



    

                   

Then the Scorpion was there



    

                   

Apart from the Snake,

Scorpion and Centipede



    

                   

there's Gecko as well



    

                   

Say, if you weren't the fourth senior,



    

                   

would you investigate



    

                   

the matter of fifth senior seriously?



    

                   

Master's last will was, asking me...



    

                   

He Yuanxin has been back for a few days



    

                   

He didn't make trouble



    

                   

Then he's not the Gecko



    

                   

You worried about this today



    

                   

and that tomorrow



    

                   

I think you're wasting your time



    

                   

The matter is over



    

                   

You're still mumbling all the time



    

                   

The Scorpion and you are like old folks



    

                   

The Centipede is useless



    

                   

He's worried he will be in trouble



    

                   

You want to...



    

                   

He's our eldest senior after all



    

                   

So what?



    

                   

Don't you mean

the Toad isn't our schoolmate?



    

                   

Who the hell are you?



    

                   

Maybe I don't know



    

                   

Maybe I know



    

                   

But I won't ask this



    

                   

We only kill people



    

                   

...and do bad things



    

                   

When should we stop?



    

                   

Starting with the Toad

and then the Centipede



    

                   

Will I be the next one?



    

                   

Maybe we should find the Gecko first



    

                   

You don't have to worry about this



    

                   

You have found him...



    

                   

or have you already joined him?



    

                   

Hence you don't need the Centipede

or my help



    

                   

If you're suspicious like this,



    

                   

I've nothing to say



    

                   

I'm a wealthy son of a influential family



    

                   

I don't really care about

uncle's treasure



    

                   

It was just the fighting skills

I was after



    

                   

and entered the House by mistake



    

                   

I've been controlled by you



    

                   

I do more and more bad things



    

                   

I kill more and more people



    

                   

Until the Brother Toad was dead,



    

                   

I realized



    

                   

how ruthless I had become



    

                   

But I've to kill to keep mouths sealed



    

                   

I had to kill Menfa and Lin



    

                   

You ask me when we can stop



    

                   

I may as well tell you now



    

                   

You will keep doing bad 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 did



    

                   

Master said that I'm not powerful enough



    

                   

What I acquired...



    

                   

is no match for any of you



    

                   

But if I team up with one of you



    

                   

I can defeat the others



    

                   

I got it



    

                   

But we don't know who the Scorpion is



    

                   

Our enemy is hidden



    

                   

Did Brother Gecko find any clue?



    

                   

No



    

                   

Indeed the Scorpion is still in town



    

                   

The treasure uncle kept is probably



    

                   

...in Scorpion's hands



    

                   

It wasn't in his house. There's probably



    

                   

a map showing the hiding spot



    

                   

If Scorpion has the map,



    

                   

he'll definitely go to the spot



    

                   

Though Scorpion will leave town



    

                   

...there are many people here



    

                   

One less or one more



    

                   

How can we figure it out?



    

                   

Right



    

                   

Leave it alone. Let's practice first



    

                   

Master said

the eldest senior has fast hands



    

                   

His nickname is the Thousand Hands



    

                   

I hope to tackle him with Gecko,



    

                   

who should attack from above to the below



    

                   

I will attack his lower part of body



    

                   

lt'll work this way



    

                   

Above



    

                   

Below



    

                   

Master also said



    

                   

the Snake is very quick in response



    

                   

The right is the head

and the left the tail



    

                   

They'll protect themselves mutually



    

                   

I'll attack him with Gecko

from both sides



    

                   

It may break his defense system



    

                   

The right



    

                   

The left



    

                   

Master said third senior...



    

                   

I've been awaiting you for a few days



    

                   

I know you'll come



    

                   

You want to stop me



    

                   

I know your temper well



    

                   

I'm here to give you a hand



    

                   

Ma, you're going to your motherland



    

                   

You don't have to get involved



    

                   

Stop saying this if you consider me

as your friend



    

                   

Ma, I'm not looking down on you



    

                   

When we start fighting,



    

                   

it'll be very hard for you to step in



    

                   

Though I can't step in,



    

                   

I'll protect you



    

                   

from the attack of Hong's servants



    

                   

Is it okay?



    

                   

Ma, have you changed?



    

                   

I've resigned from my post



    

                   

Right, I'm not doing this anymore



    

                   

I don't expect   people coming



    

                   

Where's Tan?



    

                   

I'm right here



    

                   

Tan, you're the Thousand Hands



    

                   

Wentong Hong,



    

                   

you're the Snake. Stop pretending



    

                   

You are the Gecko



    

                   

You should have known earlier



    

                   

You're still looking on with arms folded?



    

                   

Private matter

isn't a civil servant's duty



    

                   

Who are you? You can't fool me



    

                   

Why didn't you start?



    

                   

The Scorpion?



    

                   

The Scorpion?



    

                   

When did you know?



    

                   

When you stroked the spearhead



    

                   

...in the hall,



    

                   

and crushed Toad's inner power



    

                   

Unbelievable!



    

                   

I just realized it lately



    

                   

You knew it



    

                   

You want to use me

to kill the eldest and Snake



    

                   

Isn't that too obvious?



    

                   

I see



    

                   

The treasure is already in your hands?



    

                   

What do you think?



    

                   

Thousand Hands, you better make it clear



    

                   

we still have grounds for discussion



    

                   

But you too have risked

your life with them



    

                   

He's our little junior



    

                   

He has master's order

to clean up the dirt



    

                   

Finish the two of them



    

                   

I'll share the treasure evenly with you



    

                   

Split them



    

                   

Where's the treasure? Tell me



    

                   

Move



    

                   

Come on



    

                   

The governor also took part in

killing fifth brother



    

                   

Birds of same feather



    

                   

Killing the governor is useless



    

                   

Another corrupt man will replace him



    

                   

How could we eradicate all of them?



    

                   

Let's complete master's last will



    

                   

Use the treasure for charity and...



    

                   

absolve Five Venoms House of

the bad reputation



    

                   

There's no more Five Venoms Clan



    

                   

You're right
