The New Legend of Shaolin (1994)

The movie revolves around Hung Hei Kwun, who arrives in his village after a raid by government soldiers, only to find his whole village destroyed. Hung Hei Kwun quickly finds his infant son and gives him a choice between death and joining him in the rebellion. Upon leaving his village, he is encountered by Ma Ling Yee, who is also supposed to be involved in the rebellion but learns that Ling Yee had betrayed him and their village for the bounty on Hei Kwun's head. After an epic battle, we skip ahead several years and arrive with Hung Hei Kwun and his now martial arts-skilled son making their way through China in order to find the money for food. At this time, the film introduces "Red Bean", who is in the process of swindling a very rich man out of his money. Kwun tries to leave his son in the care of his brother but is betrayed, forcing him to kill his brother. At the same time, the government has begun to crack down on Shaolin. Pieces of a map are tattooed onto the backs of several pupils, who are then removed from the temple in order to keep safe the Ming Dynasty treasure the map leads to. Unfortunately, years ago, Hung Hei Kwun's encounter with the money-hungry Ma Ling Yee did not end as Hung thought it did. Ma Ling Yee survived the fight as a result of being dipped in poison in the last battle and was restored by The Monk of the West District in the process. Now a disgusting creature, he is after the map tattooed on the backside of the Shaolin pupils. Unfortunately, a swindling rich man is the father of one of the pupils. In an attempt to protect his son from the government, knowing his son is a Shaolin pupil, he hires Hung Hei Kwun as a bodyguard. This leads to the rekindling of the conflict between the monster Ma Ling Yee (who seemingly works either alongside or with the government) and Hung Hei Kwun. (Source: Wikipedia) Edit Translation
