Dragon Inn Page #3

Go.

It looks like they've arrived.

Go back and save them now.

If it's too late, take them

to the grain storage. I will find Xiao.

Hey, this way!

We must leave now!

What's going on?

Quickly, we must leave.

Attack!

To the grain storage!

You can't escape!

Get them.

You head to the grain storage.

And you attack from the front.

Make way!

Let bygones be bygones,

shall we?

Very well.

If you let the Yu family go free.

Fine.

Go inside.

Bring the Yu family here.

I'll deal with this.

Miss Yu!

Get to the grain storage

and try to get inside from the rear.

- And you?

- I'll hold them off here.

- Brother Xiao...

- Yes?

- Xiao?

- Who is it?

Pi Shao Tang.

Would you step outside?

Why did you call for me?

Xiao, look over there.

You summoned me to show me this?

I don't think my men deserve this.

You don't think so?

They should have learned

their lesson by now.

You're no relative of the Yu family.

Why are you so determined to fight?

I have no choice.

And I get paid, after all.

If that is the case,

money's no issue.

Once I've taken sides,

there is no turning back for me.

But why?

You can always change sides.

- Sorry, but that is impossible.

- Why so?

This isn't about honour and money.

It's about the family of a great man.

And also...

don't be enraged at this...

your agents aren't exactly

the most popular.

Don't try to flatter me.

I know all this myself.

But we do pay our men very well.

What do you mean by "well"?

It depends on the services

rendered to us.

I believe you have seen what kind

of service I can provide.

Then perhaps you will accept my offer?

Perhaps.

We usually pay 100 taels.

I'll offer you double.

That's just not enough.

- Xiao, name your price.

- 200 pieces of gold.

Very well, I will pay 200 in gold.

Payment right now.

Now you're pushing me too far!

- What's the meaning of this?

- You want to rip me off?

Hold him off.

Move aside.

If you insist on disturbing me,

you'll make me angry.

Get them away from here!

You must rest.

Don't waste medicine on him!

Be quiet!

He'll be all right.

Let him go.

You may leave now.

- Don't let them go!

- Be still now.

Hey, they'll be coming back for us!

Silence! You must leave now.

Carry on.

Thank you so much.

But what can we say...?

Don't drink too much water.

On your way now.

They're unconscious.

Master Wu, may I talk with you?

- Don't listen to him!

- Enough!

Go on.

Master Wu...

- We don't want to go back.

- Oh? And why is that?

If you have no objections...

we would like to follow you.

You wouldn't have

a bright future with us.

If we go back,

we won't have one, either.

Every day, committing evil deeds,

killing innocent people...

sooner or later,

one comes to regret it.

- What's your name?

- Duo La.

What?

My name's Duo La. We're Tartars.

He's my brother.

We always admired Chinese culture

when we lived at home.

I always wanted to go to China.

When I was 18, General Yu

assembled his new troops.

And he marched his way to China.

Who would've thought that...?

So you know me?

Who doesn't know Lieutenant Wu

from General Yu's army?

How come you work

for the Eastern Agency?

Just shortly before General Yu

was convicted,

I was transferred to the Royal Guards.

After the execution,

I paid my respects at Yu's grave.

Zhao heard of this and transferred us

to the Eastern Agency.

We had no choice in the matter.

And so you became agents.

Can you tell them

to leave us alone for a moment?

Zhao Shao Shin had

me and my brother... sterilised.

I assume they won't be here

for two days.

You said that Zhao had taken

his fighting skills to new heights.

What did you mean by that?

I don't know, they just say

that his skill is unmatched.

But he suffers from asthma

and mustn't overdo it.

Xiao, let's get him.

Isn't that enough to match him?

- He's even faster than you two.

- Really?

Then show us your skill.

They're coming.

Open up!

- Who is it?

- Wu Ming, it's Gui Yu Xiang!

Lieutenant Gui, welcome!

You can come out. He's a friend.

Forward!

- Where are my twelve soldiers?

- The Agency men killed them.

And why did they do that?

They wanted to kill Yu's children,

and your men were in the way.

Wu Ming, we are friends...

but don't act so rashly!

Arrest him! We'll talk later.

Out of my way!

Are you resisting?

Drop your weapon!

I bow to Your Excellency.

You're to blame for all this.

I have failed,

but Xiao's too skilful a fighter.

Weakling!

Just look at yourself!

Yes, sir.

Wait!

I heard that the innkeeper's name

is Wu.

Yes, sir.

Is it Wu Ming?

THE CHILDREN OF YU MUST DIE

EVERYONE OFFERING THEM AID

WILL BE KILLED TOO

He must be in the vicinity.

That damn eunuch! I will talk to him.

Your job is to watch the border.

This is none of your business.

Stay out of it

or you'll find yourself in trouble.

But this is my territory! East Agency

eunuchs have no jurisdiction here!

How dare you?

A low-ranking officer like you speaking

like that to me? You're dismissed!

Very well.

- Show me the Royal Order.

- Bring the order and show it to him.

Your Excellency,

come and look at this.

Step aside!

I CAN'T MEET YOU NOW. TAKE

CARE OF YOUR HEALTH. WU MING.

That's a good escape route.

Let me.

Stay back!

Duo La... cover me.

Go back and tell His Excellency

that we've got them.

He's wounded. Let's finish him.

Traitors!

You cover our backs, we'll go up front!

They've got us surrounded.

There's no way out.

Zhao and his men are in supremacy.

We must fight now.

What about the others?

You stay here.

We will try to get to Zhao.

I'll go with you.

You might need help in the fight.

No, you'd better watch over them.

You know you'll be in great danger.

If I'm not back by dawn,

try to get away with the others.

Tell me where Zhao is

and you'll live.

Where is Zhao? Talk!

- Talk!

- He's there!

You will go to Zhao and tell him

that I want to speak to him.

Go!

Oh? And where are they now?

Out there.

- Tell them to come in.

- Yes, sir.

By order of His Excellency Zhao,

Xiao shall enter the house!

No stupid formalities!

Tell him to come out now!

His Excellency!

Which of you is Xiao?

That's me.

You're very impertinent.

I have to be.

I heard you're a skilful fighter.

Skilful enough.

You don't look anything like it.

- You don't look like a eunuch, either.

- How dare you!

Don't try to scare me.

I'm not one of your agents!

I'll make you an offer.

Just leave the children here,

and you are free to walk away

from this place.

If you follow me, I'll offer you

an officer's commission.

And if I don't?

Then you shall suffer.

You're good, old man.

Such a technique is learned

from childhood.

And he's never tasted

sensual pleasure!

But that was never a problem for you.

You never had any senses to enjoy.

Am I right?

Take a few men

and search for the children.

Now that was close! Almost close

enough to make me a eunuch like you!

Get back!

Eunuch Zhao,

as you don't have anything below,
