Shaolin Page #4

Cao Man, you want us to help the foreigners build the railway.

But you mustn't forget,

Mangshan is the resting place of our ancestors.

Disturb the soil and you break the Feng Shui.

The ancestors will never agree to this!

If you are really going to do it, I have nothing to say.

I'm just worried that the foreigners are playing us...

And making deals under the table.

Cao Man, your betrayal of Hou...

We don't care.

He previously said,

building the railway is just a cover.

It's true intent is to take our land.

Okay, okay, okay.

Say no more.

Henan Province's interests are not for one man to decide.

But looking at Cao Man's attitude, it seems

he's already made an agreement with the foreigners.

There was no intention to hear us out.

Go.

Listen well.

Standing in my way...

Is not in your best interests.

They are fortunate.

But their families...

Will die much more horrible deaths.

Whether to become my friend or my enemy...

Is for you to decide.

Have a think.

If there is money to be made, noone loses out.

What do we do now?

He hasn't returned yet.

Don't cry, Aunt.

Okay?

Crying won't bring him back any sooner.

What has happened?

Master, our Daniel has been gone

for over twenty days now.

What should we do?

[ NOTICE:
Seeking all able men aged 16 to 40 for work on the Zhengsong railway. ]

Cao Man is building a railway?

Our family depends on him.

Work quickly, on pain of death.

You hear?

Faster! Faster!

Who's there!?

What the hell are you up to?

Commander Hou.

Why did you kill so many people?

It was...

It was Commander Cao's orders.

Leave.

Leave!

Hou Jie still lives!

Hou Jie still lives!

Let's go.

Cao Man lied to us about building the railway.

Who knew he was really digging for

artifacts for the foreigners.

Each one we found, we gave to them.

In exchange for guns and cannons.

He was worried it might leak it out,

so he had them silenced.

The Cao Villa still holds many of our brothers.

At the end of tomorrow's work,

they will all be killed.

I am sorry.

Go home.

Quick! We're going.

Daniel! Daniel! Daniel!

Go have a look.

How could this be!?

In life till now, committed terrible crimes...

All stemming from the greed of man.

The actions of one...

Today begs for the Buddha's forgiveness.

Evil came to trouble the mind...

Enough!

Hereon will trouble no more.

Shengnan!

Corruption is without value...

How can my daughter be dead!?

Purity without excess.

Forget bygones with one cut,

one cut to sever all.

Then will you understand all

that is before you.

From today on,

this rite bestows the Three Jewels.

The Buddha is realised.

The Way is straightened.

The monk is at peace.

Hereon, you will be known

by this order as Jingjue.

Amitabha.

Amitabha.

Capture Hou Jie alive!

Capture Hou Jie alive!

Capture Hou Jie alive!

Sir!

It's Cao Man! I'm going to stop him!

Get back here!

Sit down!

Calm down.

He's come at a good time.

Seize the moment, I will take him back.

After sunset, go to Cao Villa.

Rescue the people.

You'll go?

You are walking to your own death.

If my life can be exchanged for countless others...

What is death?

Jingjue, you must be careful.

Nobody move!

- Nobody move!

- Nobody move!

Amitabha.

Please Sir, release the meat cleaver.

Continue committing sins

and suffer disastrous consequences.

That was for my daughter.

Amitabha.

That sure is my Big Brother.

I knew you wouldn't die that easily.

Brother, I thought of you terribly.

Thought of me?

If I don't die, you can't sleep, right?

Don't be ridiculous.

Nothing of the sort.

Don't pretend.

You're afraid I will take you down.

Jingjue's actions are to

give us an opportunity...

So we can save lives.

Your impulsiveness will ruin the plan.

You understand!?

You once taught me...

Gain the upper hand and you hesitate a moment too long,

the one dead will be you.

I remembered.

Pull back your men, I'll go with you.

String the Abbot up.

Do anything rash and I'll send him to the gods.

No objections, everyone stand down.

Come then.

You promised to have these at Zhengzhou before dawn.

Relax.

With Cao's troops, noone will dare block our way.

Remain vigilant.

Make way! Make way!

Get down! I'm talking to you!

Get down!

Quickly!

Get in quickly!

Big brother, isn't this place more beautiful than before?

You bring me here...

Wasn't just for me to praise you, was it?

Of course not.

I was wrong. Please forgive me.

I hope that Brother will once again take me in.

Conquering the world and

achieving great things.

Brother, look...

This was all for your sake.

This throne is yours.

This imperial robe is also yours.

Brother.

Is money and power really that important to you?

Listen to me.

Don't become like me.

Faking compassion?

I was messing with you...

To see how you would play along!

I have a gift for you.

Bring her out here!

I found him for you, Sister.

I spared her, so man and wife can be reunited.

Get down!

About face!

You've suffered.

I used to think I was powerful.

I could take care of both of you.

But instead, I destroyed us.

Ready guns!

Don't shoot!

Raise arms!

Fire!

Fire!

Guards stay! The rest follow me!

Yes!

Master, save us! Save us!

You men! Go see what's happening!

Yes!

The artifacts are being stolen!

After them!

Out of my way!

Hou Jie!

Let go of her!

Let go of her!

Big brother...

You're crying!

Let her go!

Your death alone...

Won't satisfy me.

You watched your daughter die...

Now I want you to watch your wife die.

Then I can be happy.

You animal! Let her go!

Let her go!

Sister is very pretty.

What a shame...

You are a monk.

Cao Man! Stop it!

Commander!

Shaolin monks have stolen the artifacts!

Attacked the prison and released the prisoners!

You deceived me.

Kill him.

Jingjue! Go!

Go quickly.

Go!

Eldest brother!

Go!

Go!

Go!

Eldest brother!

Go!

Go!

Eldest brother!

Eldest brother! Eldest brother! Eldest brother!

You won't listen to my orders!?

Go!

Go!

Go! We'll escort the villagers first!

What do you want?

Back inside!

Abbot.

Get back inside.

Hey!

Little monk, don't force me.

I warn you to go back inside now.

I don't want to kill children.

Sir, please show compassion.

Let us save the Abbot.

You will attain wealth and happiness.

Sir, Abbot always said...

A brave man is one who knows to return

after having lost his way.

Put it down and go home.

I'm sure your family is waiting for you.

Insolence!

Want to rebel? Catch them!

Amitabha.

I don't want to fight!

I don't know kungfu!

Amitabha.

Stop fighting!

Don't want to fight anymore!

I'll fight you with my life!

Abbot!

Are you hurt?

Uncle! Toss them like you were frying vegetables!

Uncle! Beat them like you were kneading dough!

Uncle! Great!

- Abbot!

- Abbot!

Are you alright?

We must get inside quickly.

- Okay.

- Go.

It's them!

Huzi!

Mother!

Father!

Jingneng's sacrifice was not in vain.

Don't be too attached.

Sirs and Madams, please ready and pack your things.
