The Daredevils (雜技亡命隊)

LO MENG

CHIANG SHENG

Time to wake up already?

It can't be!

Who's knocking on the door at this hour?

What the hell? This isn't a funeral home!

Brother Chen - it's me, Yang Da-ying.

Coming.

You really know how to poke fun at your poor old friend.

You know that I'm only staying here for a while.

I'll get kicked out in the morning.

I feel like I just lay down and it's already dawn!

Get off.

Off?

I won't! Make me.

Did something happen at home?

How is that even possible?

Your dad is a Division Commander, he's rich and powerful.

I warned him about taking on that bunch of bandits

but he wouldn't listen.

It's only been six months.

The leader of those bandits is Han Pei-Chang.

WONG LIK - Report.

Is there an emergency?

Like someone trying to assassinate you, sir?

Dad!

Brother!

Da-xiang.

Da-xiang, what happened?

Da-xiang.

It's a military coup, they've killed dad.

That bandit!

Don't! Come with me.

This is dad's bank book and seal.

Run! Now!

Han Pei-Chang and his men killed my whole family!

He's now an evil warlord. There's no evil he wouldn't do.

It took everything I had to escape to this place.

Don't worry.

Work with us as a street performer! You will survive.

You...?

What else are you gonna do?

No? You won't? I knew it.

You want revenge?

Sure, let's think up a plan tomorrow.

SUN CHEN

Young master.

LU FENG

Taking a nap while I'm not around?

Careful.

Get up.

This broken chair is all we've got?

Yes, we sold the good chair.

Damn it - why didn't you tell me earlier?!

So? Where's my breakfast?

Why don't we sell this to buy your breakfast? Come on.

This is bullshit! I gave you some money last night.

But the moment we stepped outside we saw a pub...

Shut up.

Master Fu, why are you in such a bad mood?

I'm about to go out for breakfast, care to join me?

Sure, my treat.

My treat!

Yang Da-Ying-

Stop it! Something happened.

Yang Da-ying, your enemy has an entire army under his command.

How can you possibly take revenge?

I need your help.

Let's find Liang Guo-ren, he always has plenty of ideas.

ZHEN YUAN SECURITY

PHILIP KWOK

To master kung fu, you must train your back and your feet.

Back in the day, your old grandfather was unstoppable.

He was widely known for his kung fu.

Your grandfather and I used our kung fu to fend off

many bandits who tried to steal the goods we were escorting.

I know.

Our security business isn't doing so well recently.

But you must stay in shape - but if you keep up your kung fu,

I'm sure you'll get the chance to make a name for yourself.

And now, time to train the waist.

Really?

Move.

Work harder, stop slacking off.

Such a pity - Liang Guo-ren's dad forces him to learn

this apparently "top notch" kung fu.

He clearly isn't worried about people knowing he's a thief.

He's got all his gear with him.

Whatever - my thievery

gives you a chance to show off, Master Fu.

Let's go.

Go!

Yes, work harder.

Our security service will rebuild its reputation.

And when it does, no one will dare to steal if they see this flag.

My dad's getting old. He's growing delusional.

I can't bear to leave him.

Never mind! Let's get to work.

Done?

Almost.

Hurry.

Ladies and gentlemen!

Fellow villagers! We're about to perform real kung fu!

It's an exciting show! Don't miss it!

Come over here if you want to see real kung fu!

Come on, everybody!

Fellow villagers! We're about to begin!

Don't miss it!

Fellow villagers!

Look at the loops up there! This is real kung fu!

Let's go take a look.

Thank you.

Alright, that was nothing

compared to what we're about to show you.

Bravo!

Thank you.

Show us your support, mister.

Please, mister.

It doesn't need to be a lot.

Thank you.

Is that all? What a waste of time.

Thank you.

Come on!

Bravo!

Bravo!

Their turn.

Great.

Bravo!

Wait! A tip, please?

Forget it! It's not even enough for a cup of tea.

Whoever wins can keep this.

It's better one of us eats than if we all starve.

I won!

You're such a thief.

Shut up! At least now you can afford your tea.

30?

And you?

The security company isn't doing well.

We're not going to make enough from street performance.

Alright.

Don't think I stole it just for you.

Yang Da-ying showed up last night.

We can't ask him to pay for us, can we?

Come on - cheers!

Where are you going, young lady?

I'm not drunk.

Men, light the way!

Where are those losers?

See you later.

See you.

I must have vengeance for the death of my family.

I shouldn't drag you into this.

So, I've decided to take care of it on my own.

Until the next time we meet- that is, if I'm still alive!

The bank book is for the four of you.

What are you doing? Sit down.

I'll Sit.

Well done.

Bravo!

Let's try something new.

Watch closely!

I call this, "The Flying Rope in the Sky."

Don't try this yourselves!

Watch closely, don't blink!

Don't panic, just a moment!

Oh my goodness! The rope is gone!

How come?

I'm not sure.

Pack up, I have news.

Hurry.

Hurry.

Yang Da-ying must have stolen my rope.

He's gone off on his own.

LAIAN INN

What do you think of Deputy Yuan's skills, chief?

He's great! Deputy Yuan is clearly your student, sir.

He has learned well from an excellent master.

Number two.

Not bad.

Get the table.

YES.

Number three.

They've been my bodyguards for years.

I'm very impressed.

Commander - you have control of just one region.

Why do you train so hard?

You have so many bodyguards. Who would dare try and hurt you?

Kung fu can be used at any time.

The bodyguards can't be with me all the time.

That's true.

Hands!

Back!

Foot!

Chest!

Hands!

Come on - again.

Dad, have a rest.

I can train on my own.

I'll ask you if I struggle.
