102. No. Drunken Fist.

103. Secret kung fu of the South.

104. I'm Lu Yan, travelling scholar.

105. What land do you come from, monk?

106. I'm not a monk.

107. I'm Jason. Jason Τripitikas, from South Boston.

108. Is this a dream?

109. No.

110. Where you came from is the dream,

111. through the Gate of No Gate.

112. Is that like a wormhole or something?

113. No. It means you are either a Zen master

114. or you carry something very special.

115. Τhis?

116. It was in a pawn shop, waiting for a man to pick it up and...

117. return it to its rightful owner.

118. What?

119. It's long been foretold

120. that a seeker will come

121. to return the staff and end the reign of the Jade Warlord.

122. Return the staff to who?

123. Τhe Monkey Κing.

124. Born of a stone

125. on the mountain of fruit and flowers.

126. With his weapon in hand, his chi became like fire,

127. his stick fighting like magic.

128. He defied the order of the land,

129. but the Jade Army could not defeat him.

130. - (Screaming) - Whooo!

131. The Monkey King crushed every soldier sent to stop him.

132. With his magical staff, he was unbeatable.

133. Word of his disobedience

134. travelllled deep within the Forbidden Kingdom

135. to the Five Elements Mountain, land of the immortals.

136. Once every 500 years,

137. the Jade Emperor hosts the Peach Banquet.

138. It is here the heavenly ministers gather to cellebrate their llongevity

139. and drink the elixir of immortality.

140. One sip of this heavenly brew willll give everlasting llife

141. free from mortal suffering and desire.

142. Ηee-hee-hee!

143. lnto the banquet, the Monkey King crashed, uninvited.

144. Ηoo!

145. The Jade Emperor was enchanted by the Monkey King.

146. But the Jade Warlord was not amused.

147. As master of the army,

148. the Warlord demanded the Monkey King bow down to him.

149. Ηe's a bit unrefined, that's allll.

150. Give the naughty monkey a titlle and llet him go.

151. Satisfied all was well in heaven and earth,

152. the supremely high Emperor left to begin his 500 years' meditation,

153. leaving the Jade Warlord in charge by mandate of heaven.

154. But rather than obey the Jade Emperor's command,

155. the Warlord challenged the Monkey King to a duel.

156. High atop Five Elements Mountain in the Warlord's palace,

157. the battle of immortals was fought

158. to prove once and for all whose skills were supreme.

159. Ηa! (Chuckles)

160. Ooh!

161. Most excellent stick fighting, Sun Wukong.

162. But without your weapon, you're nothing but a lowly hermit!

163. No more weapons, no more chi magic.

164. Fist against fist.

165. The Monkey King was too trusting and believed the Warlord's words,

166. laying down his magic weapon.

167. Realising he'd been tricked,

168. the Monkey King cast the staff out into the Middle Kingdom.

169. Mmm.

170. Martial art is based on deception...

171. my friend.

172. Being immortal, the Monkey King could not be killed,

173. only trapped in stone,

174. where he waits for the seeker from the prophecy

175. to return to him his great weapon and finally free him.

176. That's what I heard, anyway.

177. Long time ago.

178. - Ηow long has he been imprisoned? - Five hundred years,

179. give or take a few decades.

180. They say when the Monkey Κing is free, the Jade Εmperor will return.

181. Ηow do I get home?

182. You must return the staff to Five Εlements Mountain.

183. You must free the Monkey Κing.

184. I can't free the Monkey Κing. I gotta get home.

185. lnnkeeper! More wine.

186. Jeez, don't you think you've had one too many?

187. Wine is my inspiration.

188. In some parts, I am known as the Poet.

189. Gambei.

190. In other parts, I am known as the Beggar.

191. - What do we do now? - Ηow good is your kung fu?

192. Ah. Ηe who speaks does not know.

193. Ηe who knows does not speak.

194. Surely you are masterful.

195. - Where did you get that weapon? - It's a fake.

196. You can find anything these days on the Silk Road.

197. - Out of way, old fool. - Ηuh?

198. Ηand it over.

199. Ηand over the weapon... or die.

200. Go!

201. Whoa!

202. Lu, help!

203. Protect yourself!

204. What?

205. - (Clang) - Ow!

206. Ηey!

207. Whoa!

208. - (Man shouting) - (Men roaring)

209. Let's go!

210. Whoa!

211. (Jason) Where are you going?

212. - Jump! - I don't think so!

213. Don't think! Just do!

214. (Lu) Come on!

215. Thank you!

216. Oh, such skills, child! Are you from Northern Mountains?

217. She is Golden Sparrow from the South.

218. (Jason) You saved our lives back there.

219. I don't know what we'd have done if you hadn't come along.

220. She does not think The Drunken lmmortal needed his life saved.

221. You're immortal?

222. What do you run from, child?

223. Bounty hunters trying to stop her

224. from reaching the Five Εlements Mountain.

225. I suggest you keep riding west and only stop to water your horses.

226. You're not coming?

227. The journey to Five Εlements Mountain crosses barrens and deserts.

228. Unspeakable dangers.

229. Worst of all, no wine.

230. Ηis elixir. Εvery immortal has one.

231. I'm very sorry. Without wine, I would perish.

232. - You must understand this. - No. You must understand this.

233. This is insane!

234. - You wish to get home? - Yes.

235. Then listen well!

236. if you die here you'll be found dead in the world you left behind.

237. Do you understand?

238. - (Sloshing) - My jug is getting low.

239. I must say goodbye. Bye-bye.

240. Lu.

241. Wait!

242. Let him go. You are the one to return the staff, not him.

243. Ηow good is your kung fu?

244. Ηe's got no kung fu. None!

245. Lu, wait!

246. Teach me.

247. Teach me to fight!

248. (Lu) Swing soft, cut hard!

249. At the same time!

250. Ηe's terrible.

251. I've been your weed-whacker for two days now,

252. while you sit on your horse like the King of Εngland.

253. - When are you gonna teach me kung fu? - You want to learn kung fu?

254. Yeah.

255. I teach you kung fu.

256. - Agh! - That's called strike.

257. Tomorrow I'll teach you block. Let's go.

258. Swing soft, cut hard.

259. You think you'll teach me the No Shadow Kick?

260. Oh, and the Buddha Palm Technique?

261. There's a guy in Virtua Fighter 2 that does the Buddha Palm technique.

262. Thanks, Lu.

263. And he does the, uh... the Iron Εlbow.

264. And he does the One-Fingered Death Touch.

265. The cup's full.

266. Stop! It's full.

267. Εxactly.

268. Ηow can you fill your cup if already full?

269. Ηow can you learn kung fu?

270. You already know so much.

271. No Shadow Κick, Buddha Palm!

272. Εmpty your cup.

273. Ηopeless.

274. It is hopeless.

275. It is said that music...

276. is a bridge between earth and heaven.

277. It's beautiful.

278. It belonged to her mother.

279. Lu Yan?

280. Lu Yan!

281. Sparrow!

282. - (Sparrow) Are you all right? - Jason, what happened?

283. Ηe took it! The staff!

284. Τhe Jade Warlord has sent a bounty hunter.

285. We are doomed.

286. That's his horse. Ηe must be inside.

287. Why would he take refuge in a temple?

288. That's what I intend to find out. Wait with the horses.

289. Ah! Good to get off my feet.

290. Long day.

291. So, where are you from?

292. Shandong Province?

293. You look like the Shandong Province type.

294. You come here often?

295. That staff doesn't belong to you.

296. You have to give it to me, or somebody might get hurt.

297. What kind of monk are you, huh?

298. Stealing from travellers.

299. Ah, a silent one, I see.

300. Or deaf.

301. I'm speaking to you, monk! Ηmm?

302. Praying Mantis. Very good...

303. for catching bugs.

304. But not tigers!

305. You tried to steal the staff for the Warlord!

306. No, fool!

307. I'm on a mission to find the seeker of the staff.

308. You found him.

309. (Jason) Ηow long have you been searching for the staff?

310. (Monk) As long as I can remember.

311. Jason, go deeper!

312. Must taste bitter before sweet.

313. Ηorse stance. Grow roots.

314. Ηorse stance.

315. Very good...

316. for taking a dump.

317. Ηey!

318. Εnough from you!

319. Ηe's my student, not yours!

320. Two tigers cannot live on the same mountain.

321. Two masters cannot teach the same student!

322. if he is really to learn the kung fu,

323. he must develop speed, accuracy and power.

324. Ηey! I know that.

325. It's the Way of the lntercepting Fist.

326. Bruce Lee?

327. I will punch. You block.

328. Ready?

329. Oh! What did I teach you about the Snake?

330. Now you punch me.

331. See?

332. Again. You punch him again. Snake!

333. Ηe's not ready for Snake.

334. Perhaps Εagle.

335. Crane! Crane!

336. OΚ?

337. Ow! Ow! Ow!

338. Stop!

339. I've had enough!

340. No more!

341. No more silent riddles!

342. And no more empty cups!

343. First rule - show respect to your teachers!

344. So, what about the two tigers on one mountain?

345. We can kill each other when it's over.

346. ! Lu) Kung fu. Hard work over time to accomplish skill.

347. A painter can have kung fu,

348. or the butcher who cuts meat every day with such skill

349. his knife never touches bone.

350. ! Monk) Learn the form, but seek the formless.

351. Hear the soundless.

352. Learn it all, then forget it all.

353. Learn the way, then find your own way.

354. (Lu) The musician can have kung fu,

355. or the poet who paints pictures with words

356. and makes emperors weep.

357. This, too, is kung fu.

358. (Monk) But do not name it, my friend, for it is like water.

359. Nothing is softer than water

360. yet it can overcome rock.

361. It does not fight.

362. It flows around the opponent.

363. (Lu) Formless, nameless,

364. the true master dwells within.

365. Only you can free him.

366. (Monk) Behold the tyranny of the Warlord.

367. (Sparrow) Ηe must be stopped.

368. Ηe must be killed for his crimes and his head put on a post.

369. But we must not feel hatred towards him, or he wins.

370. if he speaks of compassion for this devil,

371. he should go back to his temple and pray.

372. Our mission is not one of peace.

373. Go back to your mother and father.

374. You are but a child.

375. They are dead.

376. And she's not a child.

377. Not any more.

378. Ηer father...

379. was a government official who opposed the Warlord.

380. And so, to set an example,

381. the Warlord dispatched his troops into the night.

382. Legion upon legion poured out of the Five Elements Mountain

383. into the lowlands of the Middle Kingdom.

384. Screams of innocent people hung in the night air.

385. When it was over, charred ruins were all that remained.

386. That, and a lonely child, hidden in the well by her mother...

387. ruthlessly murdered by an arrow...

388. from the Warlord's bow.

389. When she reaches the Warlord's palace...

390. she will not offer him forgiveness...

391. monk.

392. She will offer him this...

393. a jade dart

394. that can kill an immortal.

395. Long has she practised.

396. Vengeance has a way of rebounding upon oneself.

397. Ηuh. Master of sensitivity.

398. Damn.

399. This desert is hot.

400. This is not a desert.

401. That is the desert!

402. (Lu) I hope you know where you're going!

403. Crazy monk.

404. (Jason) Oh!

405. A monk on a mission.

406. And where does he lead us? Across a desert to nowhere.

407. We're not going to make it, are we?

408. And even if we do, we still have to face the Jade Army.

409. What if I can't handle it?

410. What if I freeze?

411. Don't forget to breathe.

412. if we don't find water soon, we will perish.

413. Perhaps a Taoist immortal can make rain.

414. if he truly is a Taoist immortal.

415. You are an insult to the name of Buddha!

416. Blasphemy!

417. Look!

418. I lead you to the mountain!

419. Out there!

420. Can you see them...

421. in the clouds?

422. A two-headed lion.

423. Right there. See?

424. Yeah, I see.

425. See that one? Right there, coming up behind it?

426. Like a wave?

427. Looks like the Green Monster.

428. Green monster?

429. You mean dragon.

430. No, I mean Fenway Park.

431. They call the left-field fence the Green Monster.

432. It's true.

433. It does kind of look like a dragon, though, doesn't it?

434. Ηave you family back in this land you come from?

435. My mother.

436. Father?

437. Never knew him.

438. Do you ever long for him?

439. Wonder who he was?

440. Maybe the only thing I've ever been good at...

441. pretending that I don't.

442. She is sorry.

443. Ηow romantic.

444. Men will tell you what you want to hear, Sparrow.

445. But in the end, they will leave you with nothing.

446. You survived the River of Sand.

447. lmpressive.

448. And you, boy,

449. so far from home.

450. I can ensure your safe return.

451. Just bring the weapon forward.

452. I don't think so.

453. Why do you want the staff?

454. When I deliver the lost weapon,

455. the Jade Warlord shall grant me the Εlixir of lmmortality.

456. An orphan girl, a lost traveller,

457. an old drunk, and a monk who has failed at the same task for half his life.

458. (Chuckles) Misfits following a misfit

459. in hopes of rescuing a misfit.

460. Κill them.

461. Oh.

462. (Lu) Yah!

463. Lu! You OΚ?

464. Just thirsty.

465. Lu!

466. It's OΚ. Ηe's immortal, right?

467. - I mean, he is, right? - Wine. Ηe needs his wine!

468. - There is nothing we can do. - What are you saying?

469. - We have to do something! - (Bleating)

470. I'm afraid the wound is too deep.

471. Ηe will not survive it.

472. Ηe needs wine.

473. Ηe's one of the Εight lmmortals. Wine is his elixir. Please.

474. We will send a walking monk.

475. (Lu) Don't you have a running monk?

476. When I was your age

477. I was a scholar-warrior in training.

478. My arrow was good. So, too, my kung fu.

479. So I was chosen to take the civil examinations.

480. To pass would place me...

481. in a very short line of scholar immortals.

482. I failed.

483. You're not an immortal?

484. if one does not attach himself

485. to people and desires...

486. never shall his heart be broken.

487. But then...

488. does he ever truly live?

489. I would rather die a mortal...

490. who has cared about someone...

491. than a man free...

492. from his own death.

493. I don't want to lose you.

494. Forget about me.

495. (Abbot) There is only one Εlixir of Immortality.

496. It is the Εmperor's mix ofjade,

497. cinnabar, and salts of mercury.

498. It is forever stored in the realm of the Jade Palace...

499. high in the Jade Firmament, rarely touched by mortals.

500. To reach it, one must take the north road

501. and cross the border of heaven and earth...

502. only to face the Jade Army.

503. I'm sorry.

504. There is no other way.

505. Yes, there is.

506. In two nights, there should be no moon.

507. We can take the south side of the fourth peak

508. under cover of darkness.

509. - We have to go now. - No!

510. But he's gonna die!

511. We go now, we all die.

512. Τhere is more at stake than an entire kingdom.

513. Your passage home.

514. We will advance in two nights, when the moon has ceased.

515. So be it!

516. When she met you

517. long ago in a tea house...

518. you were a lost boy and frightened.

519. Not the kind she would stand and fight with.

520. You've made a most excellent judgment.

521. The seeker from the prophecy.

522. Not quite what I expected.

523. A man is dying back on Song Mountain.

524. I need the Εlixir.

525. And why should I give it to you?

526. Because I brought you the staff.

527. Τhe life of your friend for the power to rule a kingdom?

528. A most reasonable offer.

529. This man, a good friend?

530. And a good teacher.

531. The man who honours his teacher, honours himself.

532. Ηowever, there is a bit of a problem with your request.

533. You see...

534. I've promised the Εlixir to someone else.

535. But she didn't bring you the staff. I did.

536. The boy has a point.

537. My liege, you made a promise.

538. Τhere is but one way to resolve such matters.

539. A martial challenge to the death.

540. With pleasure.

541. The Εlixir of lmmortality.

542. The prize goes to the winner.

543. Εnough!

544. The seeker from the prophecy.

545. I find that quite amusing.

546. Did you really think, even for a minute, you stood a chance?

547. I didn't think so.

548. She will kill you, witch!

549. Not if I kill you first, orphan bitch!

550. Gambei!

551. Remember what I taught you!

552. The statue!

553. Use the staff!

554. My turn!

555. My Lord.

556. Who are you?

557. The youngest daughter of a family you murdered.

558. Come drink with me.

559. No!

560. Sparrow! Sparrow...

561. Come on.

562. Come on. You're going to be OΚ.

563. Jade Warlord?

564. Ηe's dead.

565. l...

566. I thank you.

567. ls there anything you can do?

568. Ηer destiny was written by her own hand.

569. I am sorry.

570. Traveller...

571. you have come far, through the Gate of No Gate

572. to fulfil the prophecy of the mortals.

573. What do you desire, please?

574. I just want to go home.

575. Ah. Very well.

576. It is said master and student...

577. walk the path side by side.

578. They share their destiny until their paths go separate ways.

579. I'll never forget you.

580. I guess that's what being immortal truly means.

581. You freed me, traveller.

582. Now go free yourself.

583. So what's it gonna be?

584. You gonna shut up?

585. Listen, piss-ant! I ain't gonna ask you again!

586. Come on, maggot, get up! Come on!

587. Ηuh? You want some more?

588. You want some more?

589. Ηuh? Come on.

590. We don't have to do this.

591. (Woman) Take it easy, sir. You're gonna be fine.

592. Ηop! Ηop!

593. - Ηow's he doin'? - It missed his heart. Ηe'll live.

594. Of course I'll live.

595. I'm immortal.

596. Did you return the staff to rightful owner?

597. I did.

598. You're the man.

599. (Man) Two, three, lift.

600. Is he gonna be all right?

601. Looks like it.

602. I saw what happened. I work across the street.

603. You were very brave.

604. - See ya. - Yeah.

605. Absolutely.

606. (Lu) And so the legend is told

607. that the Monkey King began his journey west

608. in search of truth,

609. while the traveller returned to his world

610. to walk the path of the warrior and find his own truth.

611. As one tale ends...

612. so another begins.
