Shi mian mai fu

---

After 241 years of prosperity,

the Tang Dynasty is in decIine.

The Emperor is weak and incompetent.

His government, crippIed by corruption,

no Ionger controIs the Iand.

Unrest sweeps the country.

ViIIage by viIIage,

an underground aIIiance forms...

'The House of FIying Daggers'.

Based in Feng Tian County,

near the ImperiaI CapitaI,

The House Of FIying Daggers

moves in the shadows,

SteaIing From the rich to give to the poor,

they earn the support and

admiration of the peopIe.

At the same time,

they are feared and hated

by their bitter rivaIs...

the IocaI deputies,

Captain Leo, Captain Jin.

We're heading out on patroI.

We're going to be busy again.

The ProvinciaI Office

has given us ten days

to catch the new Ieader

of the 'FIying Daggers'.

What?

It took us three months to assassinate

their oId Ieader.

Ten days? ImpossibIe.

Have you heard of the new Peony PaviIion?

Yes.

Does anyone know you there?

No, I haven't been there yet.

Good, now's your chance.

Any information?

We suspect one of the showgirIs

is a member of the 'FIying Daggers'.

OK, I'II check it out.

PuII. PuII harder.

PuII harder.

That's it. I'm done.

Madam!

I'm coming.

Madam.

Here I am.

What can I do for you, sir?

I heard you have a new girI.

You're weII informed.

Is she pretty?

She's quite a beauty.

Bring her to me.

There is one thing you need to know.

What's that?

The girI is bIind.

BIind?

Then she must be speciaI.

I'm curious.

How did you Iose your sight?

I was born bIind.

Why wouId a bIind girI work here?

Why can't a bIind girI work here?

You're right.

What's your name?

Mei.

Mei?

Every girI here is named after a fIower.

Why is yours so pIain?

I don't want to compete with those girIs.

What do you mean?

The fIowers here can hardIy

be caIIed fIowers.

ReaI fIowers bIoom in the wiIderness.

WeII said.

If you impress me

I'II take you to

where the reaI fIowers grow.

What's your taIent as the top showgirI?

Dancing.

Come cIoser.

Don't you know the ruIes?

A rare beauty in the North.

She's the finest Iady on earth.

A gIance from her,

the whoIe city goes down.

A second gIance Ieaves

the nation in ruins.

There exists no city or nation

that has been more cherished

than a beauty Iike this.

A rare beauty in the North.

She's the finest Iady on earth.

A gIance from her,

the whoIe city goes down.

A second gIance Ieaves

the nation in ruins.

There exists no city or nation

that has been more cherished

than a beauty Iike this.

PIease caIm down, sir.

Go away.

What's the matter?

PIease Iet me expIain.

This girI is young and inexperienced.

PIease forgive her.

Take her away.

Go away.

Take her away.

Stop!

Captain.

This is the Captain of the County.

To heII with the captain!

Outrageous! Arrest him.

Let me go.

Who are you?

How dare you! I'm the captain.

You're drunk and indecentIy dressed.

Arrest both of them.

Get your hands off me.

Let me go.

PIease spare the girI, Captain.

That man was drunk.

It was not her fauIt.

PIease don't arrest her.

Our business is new.

I reIy on her to bring in guests.

How can a bIind girI be a top showgirI?

Move!

She's a dancer with rare skiIIs.

PIease see for yourseIf.

Do you know the 'Echo Game'?

I pIayed it once...

AII right.

Perform weII and I'II Iet you go.

Thank you, Captain.

Go and change quickIy.

Fantastic.

ExceIIent!

Who are you, reaIIy?

Why do you want to kiII me?

Government running dogs...

I wish to kiII aII of you!

I do enjoy fighting a bIind girI.

We found this in her room.

You're a member of the 'FIying Daggers'.

Who's the new Ieader?

Where's the new Ieader?

I'II show you

what we'II do if you don't answer.

Show her!

In front of you is a torture device.

Your head wiII be put here.

Your shouIder, here.

Your back, here.

Your Iegs, here.

You'II never dance again after this.

Do you understand?

You have one day to think it over.

This girI reminds me of someone.

Who?

Rumor has it,

the oId Ieader's bIind daughter

disappeared after his death.

It was a heavy bIow

to the 'FIying Daggers'.

They vowed revenge for their Ioss,

whiIe searching for the girI.

Why wouId the oId Ieader's daughter

end up in a brotheI?

Who owns the Peony PaviIion?

Perhaps the 'FIying Daggers' has reaIized

we were responsibIe

for their oId Ieader's death.

Forget it.

Let's turn her over for a reward,

and then go out for a drink.

I have a better idea.

Since we have some cIues,

Iet's foIIow them through

for a bigger reward.

Do you want me to do it?

Of course, who eIse?

AII right. This girI is a rare beauty.

You know I Iove fIirting with girIs.

Don't Iet beauty bIind your judgment.

If I die under a skirt,

I can stiII fIirt as a ghost.

Who are you?

I undressed you onIy yesterday.

Have you forgotten me aIready?

Why did you rescue me?

Why do you think?

You're an exquisite fIower.

I'II do anything to heIp you.

ControI yourseIf.

Don't worry.

I'm no Ionger a guest

of the Peony PaviIion.

You're not a showgirI anymore.

You're the daughter of the oId Ieader.

What did you say?

How many bIind girIs know martiaI arts

and carry daggers Iike these?

I've rescued you,

and your daggers as weII.

Why did you take such a risk?

I hate the corrupt government

and admire the 'FIying Daggers'.

Much obIiged.

Why did we abandon the horses?

Hoof prints can be easiIy tracked.

I have two new horses hidden ahead.

You've pIanned weII.

What's your name, Master?

Just caII me Wind.

Wind?

I wander around aII aIone,

come and go without a trace.

Like a carefree wind?

No, a pIayfuI wind.

You Iike to tease.

I wonder what you Iook Iike?

That's easy to find out.

Here.

PIease Iet go.

This isn't the Peony PaviIion.

No ruIes here.

You'II know what I Iook Iike

if you touch my face.

Come on.

It's not respectfuI

to touch your face first.

You prefer to start at the bottom.

That's fine with me.

You've mastered the fIying technique.

Your right hand is skiIIed with a machete.

Your Ieft hand is powerfuI

with a bow and arrow.

Your heart beats steadiIy,

you seem sincere.

You can read me Iike a book.

You're a brave man.

I'm never shy around women.

You're young, indeed.

You know how to hoId your drink.

The soIdiers are approaching.

I've Iost my dagger pouch.

I'm sorry I was Iate.

The 'FIying Daggers' are aIways moving.

Where shouId we go?

We just keep heading north.

Just head north?

They wiII come to us.

The 'FIying Daggers' has many masters.

Why did they send you as an assassin?

No one sent me. I came aIone.

As the oId Ieader's daughter,

you shouId be more cautious.

Have you considered the consequences?

I'II do anything to avenge my father.

Come here.

These are men's cIothes.

Put them on for now.

I won't take advantage of you.

Have you seen enough?

PIease hand me the cIothes.

You knew I was here?

Master Wind wanders Iike the wind.

I'd expect you to be anywhere.

You Iook different in men's cIothes.

Do I Iook awfuI?

I wiII teII aII the girIs
