"We've been living peacefully outside the border." "Why must we come back here?" "It's been 10 years." "Have you come back for her?" "!" "No." "The reason for my return is that, I hear... the Plum Blossom Bandit has reappeared." "Yes, what's that got to do with us?" "Twenty years ago, the Plum Blossom Bandit, was a well known master in the martial world." "He has harmed a lot of people." "I wanted to look for him 10 years ago." "He just vanished suddenly." "I think he might want to look me up now." "Inspite of knowing all this... then what are you doing back?" "He must have gone to look for me at my old house." "Are you worried that he might hurt your cousin?" "If you love her so much..." "Why did you let her marry Long Xiaoyun?" "I know that he once saved your life." "But I've never heard of anyone who would... give up his fiancee and property for gratitude." "That happened ten years ago." "There's no need to bring it up." "Aren't you cold?" "You want a sip of wine?" "Are you deaf?" "So you're not deaf." "Have a sip." "I can't afford it." "Don't worry, it's my treat." "I don't want to take things from others." "I don't want to drink wine which I didn't buy." "Have I made myself clear?" "Yes, quite." "Then please leave." "I will." "Say, when you can afford it... will you treat me to a drink?" "Certainly." "Sit down please." "Over there." "Your wine, young master." "There're a few from the Golden Lion Escort Agency." "They're escorting something from out of town." "Number two." "Do you remember that time we came across, ...the Four Tigers of Tai Xing?" "How can I forget?" "That day they tried, ...to steal from you." "But they are no match for you." "So you're 'Sudden Wind Sword' Zhuge Lei?" "May I ask your names?" "Sorry I didn't recognize you." "You aren't worthy of knowing our names." "Just leave what you are escorting, ...and we'll spare your life." "Put down your swords." "And we'll let you live." "Are you 'The Black and White Snake?" "'." "Well, at least you've heard of us!" "Since the two want this package." "Go on, take it." "Looks like there's another grand master here." "We've almost missed you." "If you're interested in this package." "And if you can defeat us;" "Not only we'll give this to you." "We're willing to give you our heads." "Your heads are worth nothing." "Did you say that?" "Yes." "It's a pity mine is worthless." "It's too much, I just want 50 taels." "Fine, if you can kill me..." "I'll give you 50 taels." "My money!" "Take it, take all of it." "So, it's you!" "I can afford to buy you a drink now." "With pleasure." "I look for good drinking company, ...and a good place." "I hate crowds." "Please." "Judging from the awe they had in their eyes... you seem like someone well known." "It's not a good thing to be famous." "My name is Li Xunhuan, and yourself?" "Ah Fei." "Ah Fei?" "Right." "I'm an orphan who grew up in the wilderness." "I envy the birds flying in the sky." "Hence my name!" "Strange name indeed." "Cheers." "You shouldn't be drinking while coughing." "Yes, I shouldn't touch any alcohol." "Then why do you drink?" "Do you have a sad past?" "Have I asked anything you don't want to answer?" "No." "Then why did you ask?" "Okay, I won't." "Even if you want to ask, it'll have to wait." "We've got company." "Yes, one on the tree on the left." "Four at the temple ruins." "One behind the tree." "Li's Legendary Dagger, Never a miss!" "So overrated." "Give up the package." "And we'll leave you alone." "I've got the package." "Let's have another drink before I head off." "Go!" "Chase..." "Wait for me here." "Who are you?" "Li Xunhuan." "Finally you are here." "You've been waiting for me?" "A hero called Ah fey has killed many, except one;" "he told me to keep an eye on him." "And wait for you." "Where's the person?" "Here." "What are you doing here?" "This is the only house around." "After I've got the package." "...I wanted to rest here for a night." "Who'd have known that your young friend's here!" "Have some tea." "Thanks." "Are you alright, sir?" "I'm not used to drinking tea." "Then have some wine." "Do you have any?" "Yes." "Great." "Just a minute." "I'll give you the package." "Please let me go." "What's inside the package?" "Why are so many after it?" "You honestly don't know?" "Now that the Plum Flower Bandit has reappeared." "Inside the package, is the unique," "Gold Threaded Vest." "It's like an armour." "No wonder!" "Wine, sir." "Thanks." "Please let me go." "I'll give you everything." "I've an old grandmother." "Three children." "A lot of people are after this package." "So are you." "I kept my mouth shut before you had your tea." "Now that you've had a sip of poison tea, ...at the most I can wait here one more hour." "You'll die of poisoning." "I wasn't a part of it." "Who are you?" "Maybe you should know... who killed you!" "What a pretty girl." "I'd watch out should I see you again." "Do you think you'll see me again?" "Of course, you know the tea is poisoned." "But you didn't know that when I was coughing ...I spit out the tea." "Come on." "Impressive!" "Don't fight them." "If you use your energy, ...the poison inside you will circulate faster." "The girl forced me into poisoning the tea." "But I was responsible for poisoning the wine." "The wine too?" "Couldn't you taste it?" "You are..." "One of the Seven Incredible Men," "The mean and shameless one..." "Hua Feng." "I see." "Not anymore." "Now I'm the richest man in the martial arts world." "For I own the Gold Threaded Vest." "You... you..." "It's called, Fisherman gains when snipe  clam fight." "You... you..." "Master." "Chuanjia." "Master." "Chuanjia." "Master." "Hurry, go after him." "Sure." "He is over there." "Dead!" "Maybe he's got the antidote." "Be careful." "He could have other poisonous weapons." "Don't scratch yourself." "I know." "Nothing at all." "I knew it." "I'm never that lucky." "Excellent wine." "Where do you think you're going?" "Despite charging us, you didn't treat the patient." "What'd you mean by coming here and drinking wine?" "Haven't you heard, ...that I've a habit?" "What habit?" "I don't treat patients when I drink." "Damn it, I'll kill you." "I wouldn't treat the patient, if you want to kill me." "Let's talk this over." "No one needs to get hurt." "Mind your own business." "Don't run." "Don't run." "Don't run." "Odd indeed that the one who is telling us not to run, ...is instead running away himself!" "Do you now know who I am?" "Sorry, may I know your name?" "In that case..." "You save me not because you wanted my cure." "Why do we need your help to cure us?" "Your master's poisoned by my Cold Chicken powder." "I'm the only one who can cure him." "No one else can." "Someone stole the powder from me a year ago." "And now you've been poisoned." "Come on, nothing is better than drinking to death." "Let's have a drink first." "Mr. Mei, you said you'll cure my master." "Why are you drinking?" "Why should trivial matters such as life and death, ...get in the way of drinking?" "If you don't give me some wine, I won't help." "Master." "Come on." "You know that our master... can only live for two more hours?" "Why aren't you doing anything?" "I wouldn't be Mei Er... if you know when I've cured you." "I've already cured him." "The wine is the antidote." "Thank you, doctor." "What are you doing?" "What are you doing here?" "I'm Tian Qi." "Please excuse my two friends." "I'm here to apologize for them." "Sounds good." "Someone's hurt by the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Could you treat him first?" "Is he badly injured?" "A minor wound on his shoulders." "Is that it?" "Then I don't have to go personally." "Just take the medicine." "Where is he?" "Xingyun Manor." "Who's the injured person?" "Master Long Xiaoyun." "Xunhuan." "Yes, it's me." "You're really here." "I brought some medicine from Mei Er for you." "Plum Blossom Bandit has resurfaced!" "Right, he's now in Baoding City." "He has injured many." "Where did it all take place?" "My back garden." "The Plum..." "Blossom Forest in front of Cold Fragrance Chamber." "Why there?" "Because Lin Xianer lives there." "Who's Lin Xianer?" "The number one beauty of martial arts world." "Do you have any idea... how many have fallen head over heels for her?" "What's her connection to you, Brother Long?" "Why's she living in the Cold Fragrance Chamber?" "Let me fill you in the details." "I heard that Miss Lin's father... was killed by the Plum Blossom Bandit." "She has announced that... she'll marry whoever kills the Plum Blossom Bandit, ...regardless of age, status and wealth." "She'll marry that person." "She's going to meet with a group of heroes, ...here today." "Hence she has been putting up at the chamber." "Master Long." "Master Gongsun and many heroes, ...have arrived." "If it weren't for Lin Xianer's beauty..." "I doubt so many important guests will show up." "Even if it were a great feast." "Clean up the guest rooms in the East Chamber." "Yes." "You must be tired after your journey." "Take a rest in the guest room." "Then I'll introduce you to everyone" "It's time of the red plum season." "Wonder how plum blossoms are like at the pavilion!" "Fallen plums like the snow..." "It's been 10 years." "Wonder how the plum blossoms are." "You're back." "10 years." "You're still drinking as you were." "Ten years seems like a long time, but it passed by." "If I don't drink, life seems like such a burden!" "Who told you to do so?" "Myself." "Why?" "Because I owe my life to someone." "To be benevolent to your savior you feigned idiocy." "You got drunk all the time, frequented the brothels." "Yes, I was hoping you'd give up on me." "...and marry Long Xiaoyun." "Do you think I'd be happy?" "After you've left." "I found out the truth." "I wanted to kill myself." "And then I thought..." "I'd better stay alive." "Because there's a chance we'll see each other again." "Too bad, things have changed now." "The past is in the past." "Lady Lin." "Where's Master Li?" "He's right here." "Master Li, all the guests have arrived." "Master Long invites you to Cold Fragrance Chamber." "Please." "Let me introduce you." "My sworn brother Li Xunhuan." "Li Ning of Wudang Clan." "Pleased to meet you." "Golden Fist Deng Lie." "Delighted." "Wang Chen, Golden Palms of Hua Shan." "Pleased to meet you." "Master Tian Qi, the Iron Sword." "Delighted." "This is the renowned Master Gongsun." "Pleased to meet you." "Master Li was a legendary character ten years ago." "I'm glad to finally meet you." "Same here." "He's Longsheng, young master of Hidden Sword Manor." "He's proud and aloof, with incredible swordplay." "Nonetheless he is infatuated with Lin Xianer." "He's most eager to have Plum Blossom Bandit dead." "Master Zhao is here." "Master Zhao." "Sorry I am late." "No problem." "Master Zhao, why are you here with so much gold?" "There is a saying:" "It's everyone's duty to rid the society of evils." "I hate the pests of the society." "That's why I'm here today." "I hope to eliminate a public enemy." "And I brought along 10,000 taels of gold as... a reward for the one who kills Plum Blossom Bandit." "Where's Miss Lin?" "Miss Lin..." "Please sit down." "My father was murdered, I can't wait to get my revenge." "That's why I take this opportunity here, ...to say this in person." "Whoever kills the Plum Blossom Bandit, regardless of age, status and wealth." "I, Lin Xianer, will keep my promise to marry him." "What Miss Lin is about to do... has set a good example for justice." "I admire your courage." "I don't deserve such praise from Master Zhao." "This is..." "My sworn brother Li Xunhuan." "No wonder he's so good with the daggers." "Have you two met?" "Yes, and I've offended him." "Can I have a word with Master Li alone?" "Certainly." "You should know why I'm here." "You need that Gold Threaded Vest, because you'll go up against the Plum Blossom Bandit." "That's right." "Is that it?" "If you want to find out more..." "Meet me here at midnight." "And I'll let you know the details." "There have been two deaths here." "One is the younger brother of the Master Iron Flute." "The other is the only son of Master Zhao Zhengyi." "They died at midnight." "Why at midnight?" "Because people say the Plum Blossom Bandit, always shows up around midnight." "The Plum Blossom Bandit?" "Longsheng... young master of Hidden Sword Mansion." "That's me." "Why do you want to kill me?" "Someone wants me to kill you." "Hurry... inside." "Look." "Master You?" "Someone over there." "What's going on?" "Who told you to come here?" "Miss Lin Xianer." "Bullshit." "Miss Lin Xianer has left in the evening." "I saw her off personally." "That can't be," "I was just talking to her earlier." "If she hasn't told me to meet her here, ...what would I be doing here?" "To kill." "To kill?" "That's right." "At midnight the Plum Blossom Bandit will show up." "A concerned person." "At midnight, you killed Master You." "Get him." "You've got it all wrong." "We all were set up in a trap." "Let's sit down and talk this over." "We're not interested." "Looks like all of you... are hell bent to kill me now." "Don't come any closer." "That was a warning, next time it's gonna be for real." "Zhao Zhengyi, you said earlier that, you want to get rid of the pests in society?" "Why don't you do something!" "Right, are you waiting for Master Tian Qi?" "Or Master Gongsun?" "Xunhuan, Xunhuan." "That's so strange, you all wanted me dead." "Why don't you do something?" "I think you've got it wrong." "My sworn brother won't be the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Xunhuan, please hold your temper." "Brother Long." "Master Zhao, we must kill him today." "What are you doing?" "Stop it, everyone." "Let him go first." "No matter what crime he has done, ...I'll take full responsibility." "We just can't let the Plum Blossom Bandit walk away." "That's right." "Xunhuan, why don't you tell them... that you're no Plum Blossom Bandit?" "It took them a while to catch a suspect." "I don't want to ruin their excitement." "Chuanjia." "Let's go, young master." "Chuanjia." "Xunhuan." "Do you remember the day we first met?" "The Justice Eight accused you for, ...killing their head Meng Tianjie." "I told you to leave just like you're doing now." "You remember what you said then?" "I said I didn't kill anyone" "I won't leave... before this matter is cleared up." "Then why are you telling me to leave now?" "I think you won't believe I'm the Plum Blossom Bandit!" "But before they get to the bottom of all this... they shouldn't hurt you now." "There's no need for further investigation." "We're right." "He is the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Shut up." "Ah Fei." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "I want to teach you a lesson." "My friend." "Very impressive, at such a young age." "I'm Zhao Zhengyi, the impartial person." "And your name is?" "I want to be your friend." "I don't have a name, and I don't want you as my friend." "Your package." "So you killed Hua Feng." "That's right, he was carrying the package." "I knew he couldn't be a good person." "I went back to look for you, but you weren't there." "Then I found out you're here." "What's going on?" "They said I'm the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Bullshit." "Come on, let's go for a drink." "Wait." "It's just the Plum Blossom Bandit we're after." "You shouldn't get involved." "Who said he's the Plum Blossom Bandit?" "I said so." "Shiyin." "What's going on?" "I have no idea." "Tell the others that you're the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Are you crazy?" "How would I be the Plum Blossom Bandit?" "I'll ask you one more time." "This is your last chance." "Are you?" "Yes, I'm the Plum Blossom Bandit." "You heard him, everyone." "If his word is to be trusted..." "He is the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Young man, that's not fair." "I mean this is how the martial world functions." "The one with the quickest sword is the boss." "So?" "Anyone else?" "Let's go." "Wait." "How do you know I'm not that Bandit?" "I grew up in the wilderness, like an animal." "I've an instinct to distinguish good and evil." "If I leave now..." "They will be more certain that, ...I'm the suspect." "Xunhuan is right." "He can leave when we're sure of the facts." "Right." "Fine, I'll be in the deserted temple in the outskirts." "Come look for me should you need me." "Great." "Young brother." "I don't need the Gold Threaded Vest, you take this." "I got it, bye." "So you're here for the package." "The Plum Blossom Bandit?" "You got hit with my Plum Blossom Nails." "You shouldn't be able to move." "Li Xunhuan was right." "He knew someone would come after this vest." "Before I left." "He told me to wear it." "Very impressive." "What are you doing here?" "Here's your belongings." "Leave now." "Why must I leave?" "Can't you tell they're doing this on purpose?" "I've suspected it, since the first day I came back to the country, there's a trap waiting for me." "The Gold Threaded Vest, Lin Xianer, and now they call me the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Who is trying to hurt me?" "Since you know that someone's trying to hurt you." "You should better leave soon." "Have you seen the spider webs?" "Yes." "We're like the spiders." "We all want to make our own web." "Then we can live in it forever." "For everything that we've done." "For money, love, friendship, for ourselves." "We've made our own web to tie us up." "Then we're trapped in it." "No matter what we do, we can't get out." "Some people call this fate." "Why are you back, cousin?" "Destiny !" "Xunhuan..." "Shiyin, what are you doing here?" "She's here to see me." "Although I released your vital points the other day." "But I worried for your health." "Here's some herbal tea for you." "Thanks, Brother Long." "Xiaoyun, you know that he's not the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Why don't you help him clear all this up?" "Don't worry, we'll soon know the truth." "They've already sent someone... to inform Master Xinmei of Shaolin Temple." "They'll send a representative here soon." "The Shaolin Temple is famous for justice." "They won't wrongly accuse people." "Master, master." "What is it?" "Master Zhao said it's urgent." "He's waiting for you in the hall." "Folks, what's going on?" "We've just received news." "Master Xinmei will arrive soon." "That's great." "The bad news is..." "Mr. Iron Flute is also on the road." "He's famous for retaliation." "If he launches a fight," "We're no match for him." "If he gets here earlier than Master Xinmei." "...and kills Li Xunhuan." "Then what can we tell the Shaolin Temple?" "Li Xunhuan's friend is a problem too." "We must watch out for him." "Don't worry, I've an idea." "What?" "Your master is in danger." "I heard that someone will kill my master tonight." "He's a martial arts expert." "Where is your master now?" "Locked in the stock room." "Li Xunhuan." "So this is a trap!" "I presumed you to be just." "I told you to mind your own business." "Get him." "Don't worry, he won't run far." "Mr. Iron Flute." "You're hurt?" "Got ambushed?" "Why are you asking me?" "Since you've observed it." "I don't like to attack people behind their back." "If they didn't attack me from behind." "There's no way they could hurt me." "You're very arrogant." "I don't want to harm you since you're hurt." "But I must teach you a lesson... for being arrogant." "Since you're hurt, I'll let you take three moves first." "Why are you leaving?" "I don't want you to die here." "Why would I die?" "Because no one can take my three moves." "You want to try?" "Forget 3, no one can take one move." "I said I'll let you take three moves first." "That was one." "Two more." "Two." "Three." "Fine, that's it." "Impressive!" "You were right." "It's hard to hurt you unless from behind." "I've learnt one thing today." "I can't let anyone to take three moves first." "And you should have learnt one thing." "Every move should be fatal." "Mr. Iron Flute, have you met the young man?" "Yes." "Did you kill him?" "No." "I'm here to kill Li Xunhuan." "Xunhuan." "Why would they let me out of the stock room, ...and drink here?" "I heard that Master Xinmei... will arrive tonight." "You'll go to Shaolin Temple tomorrow." "No he won't." "Why not?" "Because I'll kill him tonight." "Mr. Iron Flute." "Why don't you ask me why I want you dead ?" "I don't want to offend you." "And anyway..." "If I explain anything, you won't believe me." "Then why would I bother!" "Right, I'd kill you no matter what." "Mr. Iron Flute." "No wonder my younger brother died at your hands." "You're very good." "So I killed your brother." "You should tell me." "What does he look like." "So that I can say hello to him in hell." "Bullshit." "Amitabha Buddha." "Master Xinmei." "Master Iron Flute, why the rush to kill Li Xunhuan?" "I must avenge for my brother." "I heard that you'll always get even." "You'd never do anyone any favors." "I wonder if you could make this an exception." "Let me and Li Xunhuan go to Shaolin Temple." "Because my chief said he doesn't believe..." "Li Xunhuan to be the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Fine." "With you here..." "It won't be easy for me to kill him." "But if you're sure that he's the Plum Blossom Bandit, ...then I want to be the one to kill him." "Thank you." "Where am I?" "The guest room." "You saved me?" "You fainted outside." "Where are my clothes?" "I helped you change." "I feel dizzy." "Take a nap." "What is it, Zhaolong?" "Our master said that..." "Li Xunhuan will head for Shaolin tomorrow." "Take the Gold Threaded Vest to your master." "Inform him that Ah Fei is injured;" "that he's here." "I'll make sure he recovers slowly." "Yes." "Inform the Five Poisons Kid." "That Li Xunhuan will be on the road tomorrow." "Tell them to kill him on the way." "100,000 taels of gold, 5 pearls will be delivered soon." "Yes." "Li Xunhuan, you must die." "Take care of yourself on the road." "Don't drink too much." "I know." "Why don't you clamp his vital points?" "Lock him up in chains." "That's right." "It's not necessary." "He might run." "He'd be already gone if he wished." "Chuanjia, what are you doing here?" "I heard that the master will head for Shaolin today." "I'm here to escort." "It's an arduous journey." "Twenty years I've worked for you." "However tough the journey, I'm not afraid." "Very loyal indeed!" "Let's go, Master Li." "Another bowl." "Come... serve the guests." "Master, they don't have the wine you like." "Only the local stuff." "It's fine." "Don't touch anything." "What's going on?" "It's poisoned." "How do you know?" "Look." "Who did this?" "I um..." "Speak up." "Not him, or he'd be gone already." "What do you think he's staying here for?" "Right, I don't know what happened." "My brother cooked the dishes." "That's my brother." "What's going on?" "Who did this?" "Look." "Five Poisons Kid." "That's him." "Looks like you've got friends." "But you've got more enemies." "I've heard that the Five Poisons Kid, ...has many ways to poison a person." "And if he is determined to kill someone... then the person will die for sure." "That's right." "Unless he never eats!" "Let's take a break here." "Sure." "Let's take a break here." "You have a rest too, Master Li." "Master Tian, you must be starving." "Of course." "We haven't eaten in three days." "Old man, here's 10 taels." "Can I have the steamed buns?" "Ten taels?" "That's right." "Dear, honey." "We have ten taels." "Look, we've got food." "You can't eat the buns." "Nonsense." "You saw him eating it." "But we can't eat it." "Because the Five Poisons Kid isn't after him." "How come he won't be poisoned?" "There's antidote in the soup." "He drank the soup beforehand." "How do you know it's poisoned?" "I know the man has left." "The house is empty." "Steamed buns." "Steamed buns." "Fresh and hot." "Steamed buns." "Behave children." "Come here and eat your noodles." "Be quiet." "I'll give you five taels." "I'll take the buns." "That..." "Since the children want to eat the buns." "I'll swap the buns with noodles." "That won't be fair to you." "Never mind." "Say thank you." "Thank you!" "Let's go eat the buns, open up." "I think I can have these noodles now." "If the Five Poisons Kid could predict that, the kids don't want to eat the noodles." "and that I'd swap with them." "And he's poisoned the noodles." "Then I have nothing to say even I'll die." "Go on." "Let's eat." "I know what you're trying to do." "You want us to starve." "So that you can escape easily." "You can't eat that, Master Tian." "This place is deserted." "There's not another house around here." "You know, if I'd wanted to poison someone." "...I'd rather do it here." "Go take a look inside." "I think the whole family is gone." "It's really empty." "Finally we're almost there." "I don't understand you." "Why do you insist... on bringing my master to Shaolin temple?" "We invited Master Li, ...because there've been thefts, of martial arts scriptures in Shaolin Temple." "What's that got to do with the Plum Blossom Bandit?" "When the scripture thief, ...killed our people," "He left a mark of the Plum Blossom Bandit." "You think my master is the Plum Blossom Bandit?" "No, but I do suspect someone." "I haven't said anything for I've got no proof." "If anything happens to me... please tell my fellow Shaolin disciples." "The name of the suspect is written, ...on the last page of my journal." "The last page of your journal." "Throw it away, don't touch it." "A poisonous toad..." "Run!" "Chuanjia." "Master, I think I've been poisoned." "You must be working for the Five Poisons Kid." "That's right." "Chuanjia." "I know I'm dying." "Take care of yourself." "Chuanjia..." "Look." "Poor snake." "It's a shame..." "Are you the Five Poisons Kid?" "That's right." "I've been expecting you... for I promised someone I'll kill you." "Master, be careful." "Five poisonous cold needles." "You know quite a lot." "Don't worry about me, just run!" "The Legendary Master Li and your daggers." "Master Li, I'm delighted to meet you." "Thank you." "Master, I'm just an ordinary man." "I'm lucky to meet you today." "It's a pleasure." "There's no need to be so modest." "Thank you for escorting Master Xinmei here." "I appreciate it very much." "You're very welcome." "Master." "How do you know he didn't hurt Master Xinmei?" "Shut up." "Don't you know that Master Xinmei... has been poisoned by Five Poisons Needles?" "Anyone could have poisoned him." "You are right." "Do you think that..." "I've hurt Master Xinmei?" "Only you could answer that." "No, someone else can give you an answer." "Who?" "Master Xinmei himself." "Why don't you ask him when he wakes up?" "Time for dinner." "Where do you think you're going?" "What happened?" "You killed Master Xinmei while we were eating." "And you're pretending you didn't do it?" "What?" "Get him." "Stop it." "Master Li." "What's going on?" "Master Xinmei was killed." "You're the murderer." "You're wrong." "About the scriptures thief, Master Xinmei said..." "He has the name of the suspect." "He's written the name on the last page, ...of his journal" "The last page has been torn off!" "That's simple." "I would tear out the last page... and make up a story if I was the murderer." "How would the thief know... about Master Xinmei's journal?" "You can get up now." "Do you want your golden vest back?" "No, I'm here to see you." "I always thought flowers are the most beautiful... things on earth..." "but today I've seen a woman, ...who is more beautiful than flowers." "You think I'm pretty?" "Have you been in love before?" "No." "You know nothing about me." "I was in a coma for the past few days." "This is the first time we've spoken." "Don't ponder upon this." "Don't move." "What is it?" "There's a poisonous spider on your neck." "Thank you." "It's so strange." "A poisonous spider in such a beautiful environment." "You can't judge a book by its cover." "I've heard that poppy is a pretty flower too." "You were holding the spider just now." "If you got bitten, you could die." "Hmm, I didn't think about that at all." "Maybe I was in a hurry." "There's only one kind of love... which makes you disregard your own life." "That's the love between a man and a woman." "You'll understand more later." "But I'll always remember that." "You've saved my life today." "And I'll remember you've been kind to me." "So..." "Have you heard anything about Master Li?" "Why do you care about Li Xunhuan so much?" "Because he's my only friend." "I heard that Master Xinmei was murdered." "Shaolin Temple has kept Master Li in house arrest, ...until they've found the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Now that a second Bandit has surfaced..." "It's proof enough that," "Li Xunhuan is not the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Would you know of anyone... who is rich and nasty that I should kill?" "You are Shen Laosan?" "Do you know why I'm here?" "Let go." "From Shaolin?" "Stop it, master." "Why do you want to catch him?" "He's the accomplice of the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Of course we can catch him." "My friend is innocent." "I hope you'll let him go." "If he's the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Then you're his accomplice;" "just as guilty." "Zhao Zhengyi, you've gone too far." "What if I have?" "You must be fair." "For your namesake." "You can't bully someone like this." "Master Zhao, no one else is here." "No spies, only you." "What do you want?" "We want to nab the Plum Blossom Bandit." "We want to find the scriptures stealer." "What if they are two different persons?" "If we can locate the scriptures." "I promise you, Shaolin won't get involved." "You must return the scriptures in three days." "Three days?" "That's a long time." "I only need an hour." "Yuanfeng." "Yes master." "Search the rooms of Dongning Chambers." "Yes master." "Follow me." "Why are you searching our rooms?" "Because Master Xinmei told me, ...you are the scriptures stealers." "The Yijin Scripture which was stolen... recently is still inside this temple." "Master, we've found the scriptures." "...in their rooms." "They must have planted the stolen scriptures." "Here's the Yijin Scripture." "We've been framed for sure." "How would you know that... where we placed the scriptures?" "Look, they are not the scripture stealers." "Wouldn't find even if they try hard." "I'd say, even if we planted the scriptures here." "We couldn't have placed it in the secret compartment." "Master Xinmei has told me that..." "He suspects the scriptures stealer is an insider." "One who has access to the library." "And only the senior masters at Dongning Chambers." "...are eligible;" "that's why I took a risk." "If Mater Xinjian would've been a little more calm..." "My plan wouldn't work." "Don't move." "Let me get hold of the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Don't move." "Master Zhao, if you want to take the credit." "I'll pass him to your custody later." "The martial world wouldn't have that many grudges." "...if not for people like them." "A bunch of hypocrites!" "Let's go." "Wait." "I've promised Master Xinmei... that I'd catch the scriptures stealers." "A promise is a promise." "C'mon, let's see how you actually catch me." "Don't move." "Come on." "Who's the Plum Blossom Bandit?" "Who told you to steal?" "What did he say?" "He said it's me." "What are you trying to do?" "To seize the Plum Blossom Bandit." "You are too rash." "I'll kill you if you move again." "You..." "Ever thought the Bandit perhaps mightn't be a man?" "Not a man?" "Then what?" "A woman of course." "A woman?" "Right... since the beginning." "The Plum Blossom Bandit has been trying to set you up." "And these people who are against us, ...are all male, martial arts experts." "Only a very beautiful woman..." "Could make this happen." "And there's only one woman who knows that..." "I was going to kill Shen Laosan." "I heard the news from Shaolin Temple." "I knew you'd come here to look for me." "You've been trying to kill Master Li..." "why?" "He killed my father." "Who might he be?" "My father worked for the Plum Blossom Bandit." "You killed him ten years ago by Tai Lake." "That's why you try to set him up." "There was a monk called..." "Xinjian who contacted me." "He said that the Plum Blossom Bandit is still alive." "I could have my revenge." "We set up a trap, ...for you." "We used the martial arts experts... as pawns." "They all lust after beauty." "Then the deaths of Zhao Zhengyi's son, ...and Mr. Iron Flute's brother." "We were hoping that they'd get rid of you." "So you knew who's the Plum Blossom Bandit all along?" "No." "Didn't have a clue." "I've only contacted Monk Xinjian." "Now it doesn't matter who's the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Because I must kill you." "I'd advise you not to." "Because even if you practise for another 10 years." "You're not Master Li's match." "That's my problem." "Miss Lin, have you ever thought that..." "I did everyone a favor by killing your father?" "He's my father after all." "Miss Lin, I owe you a favor." "I don't wish to see you die here." "You better leave." "Mr. Iron Flute, you heard her." "She's the one who killed your brother." "What are you doing?" "Avenging my brother." "I didn't kill him." "The real Plum Blossom Bandit did." "Who'd believe you?" "Come on then." "You all spread out." "Mr. Iron Flute, this is a duel." "C'mon, move." "Wait." "Mr. Iron Flute, Zhao Zhengyi, if you want your revenge, you should find the real killer." "Where is the real killer?" "I know." "Shiyin." "Cousin, I think you know who's the real, ...Plum Blossom Bandit." "Tell them." "I will if you don't." "Shiyin." " Shiyin..." " Miss Lin." "Shiyin." "Cousin, you..." "You should know." "You... it's been ten years..." "Shiyin." "Wait." "Don't go." "I know where he is." "I'll take care of it." "I've been expecting you." "Why did you kill Shiyin?" "That's because..." "I must kill all those who know my secret." "That includes you." "This duel should have... taken place ten years ago at Tai Lake." "Nevertheless it's happening today." "So you're the real Plum Blossom Bandit?" "Yes, you tried to catch me ten years ago." "I knew I was no match for you then." "That's why I set a trap." "And pretended to save your life." "Then I've been living in Xingyin Manor." "I sent Xinjian to steal the scriptures from Shaolin." "And I've been practising all these years." "So even if you attempt to take my life today..." "It won't be as easy as ten years back." "So you've never loved Shiyin!" "No." "And frankly speaking, I didn't save your life then." "Ten years ago..." "At the time when you thought I saved you;" "It was in fact the beginning of a revenge." "Only that I used sentiments rather than weapons." "However, when it comes to using sentiments..." "You've got to be like me... heartless!" "Otherwise I'd be like you." "Your whole life's been controlled by sentiments." "You were living in regrets and pain." "Before Xinjian died, he told me that... you're the Plum Blossom Bandit." "I didn't, ...blow your cover for I still had faith in you." "That's your main weakness." "You believe in sentiments among people." "You easily gave up the woman you love... and your property and wealth." "Of course, the world might say you're sentimental." "But you're just a silly fool." "Let me tell you once again." "You can't be a sentimental swordsman." "And the sword you wield... ought to be a merciless one." "Are you done with your tale, Long Xiaoyun?" "I said that before." "It's a simple story... about revenge of the Plum Blossom Bandit." "Now it's my turn to tell my story." "I want to know how you dodged my daggers." "Little Li's Legendary Dagger, Never a miss!" "You never expected me to use this magnet." "The last 10 years I managed to find a lot about you." "You never carry more than 12 daggers." "There's a sword at the back." "To kill an unarmed man." "It's something very novel to me." "I wanted to use Lin Xianer's eagerness for revenge." "And I also wanted to exploit the hypocrites, ...as my pawns." "But I'd never have thought that..." "I have to kill you personally." "I've told you before, I must kill you." "Because you're sentimental, and I'm ruthless." "Another sentimental man." "Don't move." "Maybe you didn't think I've the Gold Threaded Vest." "Hold it!" "If you step one inch further." "I swear that this broken sword, ...will be pierced through your throat." "The magnet is too far away." "Even with the broken sword..." "I still have time to kill him." "Although you could avoid... all the man-made weapons." "But you can't escape, ...from the ice made by the gods!"
