"Dear Viewers" "You might have rightly guessed this is a story of men dying for money and that this story has ended already" "But I still would like to narrate it" "The story began in March at Da Tong County" "The scenario set outside Fu Lai money bureau" "There are two things Da Tong County is famous for:" "Women and silver" "One day there appeared two pretty acrobat girls" "I hear there are two beautiful girls performing" "Over there" "Let's go..." "Excuse me..." "Sirs" "Gentlemen greetings" "Greetings" "Good" "I am Yu Yin" "We've just arrived and would like to earn some money" "The saying that friends are important when away from home is so true" "We are novices in acrobatics and our art is raw please bear with us" "Don't worry, I will take care of you" "Thank you" "Sister, come on" "Come" "Good" "If we are good..." "Not bad" "Please be generous" "If we are not that good, please bear with us and give us some support" "Thank you" "Bravo..." "Thank you" "To show our appreciation for your support we'll demonstrate something special" "What do we call this, sister?" "The Death Challenge" "It seems they are really great" "Right" "Great..." "Great..." "Great..." "What's wrong with you..." "Why are you pissing here?" "You little bitch" "Men..." "Excuse me..." "What's up?" "Sister..." "What's the matter?" "I slipped and injured my sister" "If she dies, I..." "Boss, I let them in we have the best medicine for treating wounds" "Give them some" "Okay, hurry to get it" "Yes" "Wait" "What happened?" "The two acrobats have been wounded so we are getting some medicine for them" "This is very effective it's like real blood" "Sir, she's injured you shouldn't joke with her" "Joke?" "You two want to get your hands on our bureau" "With me around that won't be so easy" "We wouldn't have come if you weren't here" "Don't kill me..." "You rat" "Guards" "Yes" "Grab them" "Yes" "So treacherous" "What do you mean by that?" "You said I am a rat" "Attack" "Did you think you could grab our money with these cheap props?" "Attack" "Well?" "Are you leaving or need I kick you out?" "See you soon" "Chase" "Don't" "Let the matter stop here" "It's our fault" "Rogues are treacherous so be extra careful" "I think someone else might want to rob us" "Waiter" "Yes" "What do you want?" "Please go to Fu Lai money bureau and invite mister Wen to come here" "Sir, I'm not capable of earning this silver because mister Wen never leaves the bureau during the day" "Well?" "Will this bring Mr. Wen here?" "Where is he?" "In our restaurant" "Mr. Wen, he is over there" "Get a chair for Mr. Wen quickly" "Yes" "No need" "So... it's the famous Invisible Loner" "Brother Teng" "Long time no see, have some wine" "Thanks, you first" "Cheers" "What has brought you to Da Tong County?" "I heard Da Tong County is laden with gold especially the Fu Lai money bureau" "You should reserve my share" "Actually how much silver is in your bureau?" "I don't know either" "And you needn't know" "With me here no one can lay a hand on it" "You live up to your fame it appears the silver is safe in the bureau" "You flatter me" "But don't forget" "I'll get the silver sooner or later" "See you" "Another one" "What a nerve, go in" "Who are you?" "You don't know me?" "And you want to do a deal at Da Tong?" "Don't move" "Go over there" "Who are you?" "I am Teng Qi Ying" "The Loner?" "If I am not mistaken with your skills with concealed weapons you must be Thousand Hands Goddess heroine Meng and that is lady Hua your sister" "Is it your way to treat your guests?" "See what have you done to me!" "Come and help me" "Lady Hua, you live up to your fame" "Stop, this is not an acrobatic show" "Stop playing tricks" "I am not used to dealing with women" "Get your boss out and serve me" "Coming" "So this is how you serve tea to guests?" "Please" "I have been following you once you got to this place and I know why you have come" "You pretend to be injured to sneak into Fu Lai money bureau to get information to rob the place, right?" "You nincompoops can't even fight with me and you want to cross Wen Li Xian?" "You'll die surely" "You're lucky you've run into me you have a chance if you count me in" "When Meng arrives let me know" "Sister, what to do?" "Should we include a share for him?" "Not that easy" "We'll act as soon as Brother Meng arrives" "Excuse me..." "Ask your boss to come out" "You are..." "Master Shen of Da Ming County" "Welcome" "I am the cashier for the bureau" "And your boss?" "He's just out" "But we already know you will be arriving here to draw out your silver" "Inside please" "Quite a good place" "You're too kind... please" "Please" "Ah Fu" " Yes" "Get some tea" "Yes" "Please" "Hurry" "Please sit" "You must have had a long journey" "No need" "I fear you might not have the kind of tea our master drinks" "Take it away" "Yes" "Mister, your tea" "Give the money order to him" "Yes" "Mister, are you taking both or..." "Just one for now" "Yes" "What?" "Is my money order a fake?" "You are pulling my leg" "Would you like big silver pieces or silver ingots we have small pieces of silver too" "All in silver ingots of 50 taels" "I don't want small pieces" "Yes, would you like them now?" "No, Qiu Fu" "Have you heard which brothel has the most pretty lady in this County?" "Yes, Yu Xiang brothel" "Alright send me the silver over there tonight" "Yes" "Let's go there right now" "Please" "I'll deliver the silver to you for sure" "Who is he?" "He is the famous Master Shen from Da Ming County" "Have you checked the money order clearly?" "There should be no mistake" "It's issued by our branch for sure" "Come, prepare the silver" "Yes" "Master Wen" "Have you counted the amount?" "Yes..." "Then let's go" "Right" "Let's go" "Brother Gwan Wu" "Those two female robbers might come again" "Be careful" "Yes" "Let's go" "Yes" "Protect the money" "So it's brother Teng" "You're too kind" "You are a kung fu legend yourself so why do escorting for the rich?" "It's a waste of talent" "If everyone were like you there wouldn't be any silver to rob" "I hear a Master Shen from Da Ming County is having fun at Yu Xiang brothel now" "So I guess the silver is for him" "That's none of your business" "Didn't I tell you that the silver in the bureau would be mine sooner or later?" "I can't bear to have ten thousand taels shortage" "So are you going to stand in my way?" "I wanted to ask you too" "Are you leaving the silver or not?" "Guard the silver..." "Wen Li Xian, you are great" "There's a lot of silver in the money bureau a ten thousand tales short is no big deal" "Chase..." "Stop" "It's unwise to chase" "Get the silver to Yu Xiang brothel quickly" "I don't have it" "Come" "You still want to get away?" "No" "You're not bad either" "Master, the silver is here" "Make way..." "The silver is here..." "Master Wen, this way..." "This way" "Watch your step" "Here..." "The silver is here..." "Mr. Shen" "Here are ten thousand taels, please count" "So much money" "Open for master to check" "No need" "Madam" "What's the matter?" "Ask all the girls to serve master Wen" "Okay" "No need..." "Duty calls, we have to return" "Qiu Fu" "Get a few hundred taels to reward the men" "Yes" "How generous!" "Thank you" "For the security of the bureau" "I have to leave now" "You?" "Over at Fu Lai money bureau I showed mercy towards you" "What do you want now?" "Nothing" "Just to square this with you" "So you've got someone to help" "Master Wen" "Let's go" "Chase" "Where's Master Wen?" "Inside" "Master Wen, what happened?" "Nothing" "Just the two female robbers are seeking revenge" "So they came for you?" "Then I feel relieved" "I feared they want to rob the bureau" "Don't worry" "With master Wen here who would dare!" "Right..." "But be careful these few days while I rest to recuperate at home" "Of course" "You must send more men to guard the bureau day and night" "Yes..." "Please" "Hurry please" "Our master wants to withdraw another 10,000 taels" "Yes" "Mister Qiu" "Another ten thousand?" "The silver that was just delivered has all been spent?" "Our master is a spendthrift spending few hundred thousand in a day is common" "You should check it out at Da Ming County" "What?" "Is it a counterfeit?" "No..." "Then please hurry" "Our master lost a dice game and needs it urgently" "Yes" "But master Wen and the guards have not returned" "Damn" "Master" "I asked you here to get the silver what took you so long?" "Master" "I wouldn't dare it's just the cashier who delayed" "You must think the money order is a counterfeit" "No, don't misunderstand" "That's not what I mean" "I have deposited the silver in your branch why wouldn't you let my man withdraw it?" "It's not that, It's just..." "What?" "To avoid any untoward incident and for the security we need more men to deliver it for you" "No need, I'll take it myself" "Yes" "Get it for me" "Yes" "Master" "What?" "Can't I go and take a look?" "As per the bureau rules no outsider is allowed upstairs" "What, can't I either?" "No, please" "Nice place" "Thank you" "Please sit" "Bai Fu, get some tea" "Yes" "Have a seat while I get your silver" "Come and help me" "Yes" "There's a trap?" "This will be fun" "It's more secure" "What about inside?" "It's a mess in there, you better not go in" "Don't worry, I'd like to have a look" "Alright" "Open up" "Yes" "So that's how you make the silver ingots" "Yes" "It's really a mess in there, you better not go down" "Okay" "Come with me" "Get me ten thousand taels of silver" "All in silver ingots of 50 taels" "Help, robbers..." "Help" "It's hot inside" "Wait" "I know what's that noise downstairs" "It's someone robbing the gold" "Come men, robbers" "Let's go" "They're fighting, let's go" "Come here" "Sister, wait in the carriage for the gold" "Yes, let's go" "Brother Chow, you two watch out here" "Yes" "Others please follow me" "Yes" "What's the situation down there?" "All fixed" "Yes, let's go" "Boss Qiu, our plan worked" "The gold is here" "Calm down, I don't want little pieces" "Small crates contain gold, large crates contain silver" "Just take the gold" "Dear, are you tired?" "No" "Brothers, come" "I have something important to tell you" "What?" "Enough..." "A hundred crates. 100,000 taels in total" "The cart wouldn't be able to take anymore" "We've already got what we wanted" "It isn't a big deal to get a few crates more" "When we asked you to be a partner you hesitated" "How come when you see the gold..." "The more gold the better" "Right" "Boss Qiu, the gold is lovely" "Naturally... after this deal we wouldn't have to worry for the rest of our lives" "Let's get the other two up here" "Brother Zhou" "Yes?" "Go and get the gold" "Where..." "There" "Well?" "All fixed" "Let's go" "I am finished" "It doesn't matter that everyone has died but my gold is all gone" "I must die" "Leave me alone" "I am finished" "They are ruthless" "To wound me first then rob the gold when I am not there" "This is a serious case" "Who do you think did it?" "Have you checked Master Shen in Yu Xiang brothel?" "He disappeared last night" "I had a notion that he's an imposter" "I think he is with the acrobat girls" "I think they can't move so much gold out of the city in such a short time" "You hurry to set up a road block at the city gate maybe you could stop them" "Master Wen" "We have already done that last night but up to this moment there is no news" "I have been given a deadline by my superiors to solve the case within a month" "You must help me" "Alright, I'll go outside the city" "Why?" "I think the case is connected to Teng Qi Ying, the Invisible Loner" "That lone robber?" "Strange, where have they gone?" "One hundred thousand taels of gold..." "Dear... come and look" "Coming" "Sister, come quickly" "Yes" "You women it's not everyday you see 100,000 taels of gold" "Gold..." "Lower your voice" "It's okay, all the neighbouring houses are empty who would hear us" "How do you know there's no one?" "How did Teng Qi Ying find you?" "You are so frightened why don't we split the gold now" "Fifty thousand taels to each party" "So we don't need to care for each other hereafter" "What?" "To split the gold now" "Then you go with your share and I go with mine so nobody would be affected by the other" "What do you mean?" "You are so stupid" "Do you think we could get away by splitting the gold?" "He is right" "This case is well known now" "There are search points everywhere" "As soon as the gold is brought outside we'll be discovered by the authorities whoever gets caught would affect the others" "That means we have to hide here forever" "No, wait until the heat is off then move the gold out of Da Tong County and split it" "I am afraid I wouldn't last being beaten up these days" "Are we not satisfied with 50,000 taels?" "Not only us, I think they aren't satisfied too" "Dear, why don't you say a word?" "My husband is such a coward what have I got to say?" "Damn" "All the gold is here and we can't use it" "I can't take it" "You are greedy" "Is the gold all yours?" "Half of it would be as good" "Wait, there's also my share" "We are husband and wife so we shouldn't squabble about whose share it is" "When we get the gold you can spend it as you like" "Don't rejoice too soon" "I afraid we might not even get 50,000 taels" "How could that be?" "I don't think Brother Meng would be that kind" "Who knows how much he'll give you?" "What?" "Who does he think he is..." "He said the whole plan and its details have been developed by him" "I don't think you count at all in his view" "He dares?" "Why not?" "Just think why doesn't he let us split the gold" "Why?" "Didn't he say the gold could not be moved out of town?" "I think the search will soon reach us here" "What should we do then?" "In fact it is not such a difficult thing to move the gold out of the town" "But it wouldn't be good to move a small amount" "We must move all of it" "You mean..." "It depends if you have the guts" "People feel the same" "Giving fifty thousand taels to others is not the best thing to do" "What if I want to get a share?" "What for?" "Nothing" "I just thought if you had to split it with me would you kill me?" "Guess anyone would kill for gold;" "Didn't you too kill many people?" "You asked me to" "And we are not even related" "There's no couple relationship that could be worth fifty thousand taels of gold" "Sometime a woman's love could be worth 100,000 taels" "Where are they?" "Haven't you gone to sleep yet?" "Can't sleep" "Brother, you have a room why are you sleeping on a pole?" "I am afraid someone might come for the gold tonight" "With you here who'd dare?" "Hua Dieh Er, I've always treated you as my own brother" "If I hadn't groomed you you would still be with the underworld gangs" "Don't worry, I am not an ungrateful person" "I will burn incense at your grave" "Brother, you can't kill me we are like brothers" "We have lived through a lot these years are you going to kill me for the gold?" "Don't worry, when you die" "I will also burn incense at your grave" "Please, I know I am wrong" "I shouldn't have acted against my conscience" "Please have mercy on me" "I know I am wrong" "Have mercy please" "You know you are wrong?" "Yes, I do..." "But my conscience is still unheeded" "It's because no brotherhood is worth fifty thousand taels" "Hear that?" "Are you really so ruthless?" "I am not ruthless it's just that the gold is too tempting" "Right, I deserve to die..." "But brother before I die, let me touch the gold so I will die in peace" "For the sake of our brotherhood" "I suppose you could grant me this wish" "Brother" "It's not that I am ruthless, it's just that the gold is too tempting" "Wife, the gold is all ours" "No, not ours;" "Only mine" "It's called, 'ln a fight between two, the 3rd gets it'" "You..." "Didn't you say no couple relationship in the world is worth fifty thousand taels?" "That's why I am taking all the gold" "Damn, you..." "Don't move or you'll bleed quickly to death" "Gold..." "You knew it would be like this so you shouldn't have started it" "Sister, let's move the gold quickly" "There's no sister relationship that could be worth fifty thousand taels" "I am waiting for someone" "Fu Lai money bureau" "Master Wen, please inform me the moment there's any news" "Sure" "Inspector Zhang, please check all the city entrance" "I'll do it myself right now" "Farewell" "Farewell" "I want it..." "Farewell" "Old Master still doing business?" "How is it?" "I little expected the hundred thousand taels of gold would be in my hands" "Wen San Hu, Chief of Tiger Fortress" "Let's move all the gold to my carriage then we could get it out of Da Tong County immediately and go straight to Tiger Hill" "What about me?" "You are my sisterinlaw naturally you are coming with me" "What for?" "You are so beautiful so you should be my concubine" "No" "Give her a thousand taels and let her be on her way" "Why?" "Because gold could be split in many ways love cannot be shared" "Don't forget the gold is mine" "Nobody can share it" "Then she doesn't get an ounce" "Get her on her way" "No, I want the gold and her too" "What do you want now?" "To kill her" "You'll have to ask me first" "She belongs to me from now on" "Wen San Hu, you..." "Lady Meng" "I partnered with you for the sake of gold now I've got it" "And I'm tired of you" "What else do you want?" "Never guessed you're worse than Meng Long" "There isn't one single good person in this world" "I think you'd better listen to me and move the gold to Tiger Hill" "If you want to die, die on Tiger Hill" "You put the original crates inside first then the remade ones" "On the surface would be my clothes" "Where do we sit?" "In the carriage" "Guard her with your sword" "It's a bit late to hate me now, isn't it?" "Get the gold" ""East gate of Da Tong County"" "Open it" "I just have some clothes" "Search carefully" "Yes" "What's inside?" "My clothes" "Search" "See what's inside" "So heavy" "Master Wen, how come going out of town now?" "I had to load my clothes onto the carriage" "What are you doing?" "You dare search master Wen's carriage?" "Do you think he'd move the gold out of the city?" "Get the stuff back on the carriage" "Yes" "Master Wen, I apologise on their behalf" "It's okay, they're just doing their duty" "Master Wen is beyond suspicion" "Good bye" "Move..." "Please" "Have some water first" "Move" "I little expected that when you cheated me you already had a well laid plan" "Using Meng Long and Hua Dieh Er to rob the gold" "She finally sees it all" "Bastard" "Call me all the names you can now after we're gone you'll have no chance" "You want to?" "This well will serve our purpose" "You want to kill me?" "As the saying goes:" "'Kick out when no longer needed'" "Besides, the hundred thousand taels of gold would better serve two than three people" "It'll still be three shares even if you killed her" "Wen San Hu, I must compliment you" "You almost cheated me too" "You're no less yourself" "I never realised you followed me" "Why are you still standing there?" "They want to kill you, why don't you move first?" "A hundred thousand taels of gold better serves two than four people" "Catch" "We are sisters after all" "Let's join together and kill them" "The gold would be split two ways all the same" "You still regard me as sister" "After we kill them you would kill me just the same" "Have you thought if we killed those two bitches the gold could still be split between us both" "We both want to get the gold alone" "How could it be split?" "As long as you still love me" "I could help you to kill Teng Qi Ying" "But I can't let that bitch go" "I have to kill you for the gold" "You could get the gold and have a woman like me, what do you think?" "I would rather prefer to have just the gold" "Do you realise that if we killed each other they would get the gold ultimately?" "Well?" "Let's both kill one of them and split the gold" "You are even more ruthless" "Come" "You deal with Teng Qi Ying, I'll deal with lady Meng" "After your death if you happen to see gold don't ever believe in love again" "Why don't you kill her?" "Why should I?" "Two against one is better than one on one" "Don't believe her" "I still love you" "Let's kill him together and enjoy our lives at Tiger Hill" "Don't mess with me" "Wen San Hu, die" "Wait" "Don't kill him" "How come?" "I still love him a bit" "It seems I must take all the hundred thousand taels of gold" "I... fell for your trap" "Don't forget my nickname:" "Thousand Hands Goddess" "Please help me get the sword out" "You still love me after all this" "It's good you know, let's go" "I must treat you well after we get back to Tiger Hill" "Give it to me" "Let's pick up the gold first" "You..." "You said you love me but never asked if I love you" "Gold..." "What, you're not dead yet?" "Without you, how could I do that?" "What a shame, so much gold" "This story of men dying out of greed for money now ends here" "But there's something rather amusing" "One day inspector Zhang passed this place and discovered this matter" "They reviewed what happened and concluded that the three of them killed each other for the gold while Wen San Hu died protecting the gold" "That is how the world goes" "People judge matters from outward appearance while no one often knows the real truth"
