Bloody Parrot (1981) - full transcript
An expert swordsman is suspected of being the thief of a treasure sent to Emperor. The swordsman who has nothing to do with the theft investigates and is led on the trail of the supernatural "Bloody Parrot".
Of the world of spirits,
in order to celebrate the birthday
of the demon king,
they use their blood and change it
to a Bloody Parrot
If you have the luck to meet it,
it'll offer you three wishes
to fulfill whatever you want
Once Prince of Dian is
preparing to pay tribute to
the imperial court
The thirteen caskets of treasures
to the king
all disappeared within one night
The Prince is perturbed at the news
and decreed Chief Guo Fan
to search at once
When you see me you'll get 3 wishes;
and as long as you live your wishes
will come true
If you are that good then...
then help me retrieve
the 13 cases of lost treasures
The Bloody Parrot has indeed
recovered the lost treasures
and fulfilled chief Guo's first wish
The lost treasures have been found
Bad news, master Guo died from
falling off his horse
Son...
Give me back my son
Give me back my son
"The grave of my beloved son,
Guo Jia Zhong"
You really believe in such rumors?
You really believe a parrot
could bring your son back to life?
I am highly responsible for
the lost treasures
and suffer the greatest suspicion too
The lost treasures have now been retrieved
it doesn't matter whether my son
can come alive
I believe in your loyalty
and also hope your son could be
brought back to life
But...
Don't let him out
You can't let him out
He's dead, he's a ghost now
My son's come back to life
You must be mad
The jewelry is gone...
Since those jewelry disappeared
what might have been a tranquil time
became a tumultuous period
To lay their hands on this treasure
martial artists tried to track down
the Bloody Parrot
They killed each other for this
and hatred was generated
Then hatred gave rise to more killings
However the Bloody Parrot and the treasure
remained a mystery
Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?
The Jewellery of the Prince of Dian
Everybody says it's you... it's you
"Dian border"
"Dian House"
Are you a ghost or a man?
I am the one who's about to die
and as yet not a ghost
Who harmed you?
It's you...
Me? I don't know that
What did you see just now?
A streak of red light,
shimmering over here
Do you know what that is?
No
Of course you don't
When that red light appears,
the Bloody Parrot will soon appear as well
It's just a rumour
No, someone has seen it happen
Who?
Guo Fan
Is he the Chief of the residence
of the Prince of Dian
who lost all the jewellery in a night?
That's him
Where's all the jewellery?
You'd better hurry and leave
the Bloody Parrot...
Where's all the jewellery?
The Bloody Parrot
The Bloody Parrot?
Who are you?
Tie Hen
Are you the famous constable
Tie Hen the Merciless?
That's me
Who are you looking for?
Guo Kan
What for?
He's Guo Fan's brother,
the family's only survivor
Only he can tell me
where the lost jewellery of
the Prince of Dian is
But you're late
What?
Have you found out the cause of his death?
He was poisoned
Do I look like someone who uses poison?
I don't think you would,
but that's because
he hadn't told you the whereabouts
of the treasure
Do you think I'd use poison if he had?
Difficult to say
What did he say before he died?
Why should I tell you?
Because, only I can prove your innocence
He uttered 3 words
What?
The Bloody Parrot
The Bloody Parrot?
I don't believe in such a rumor
I only believe that nothing
escapes justice
Cut it open
You know your stuff,
you should know what this is
This is an anti-poison pellet
and it is also the lost jewelry
Since he kept it
how could he have died of poison?
Some poisons run in the arteries
some in the organs;
they don't interfere with each other
There's someone behind this case
His murder was to silence him
Who is the mastermind?
In fact if we could find one thing
you could easily solve the case
What is that?
The Bloody Parrot
The Bloody Parrot?
It runs away so quickly
Even if you caught up with it,
it may not be a blessing
Fate and death are out of our control
I understand how you feel
Since you entered the cult of the Six Fans
70 to 80 people have died at your hands
I have never killed anyone unjustifiably
Nevertheless, you have killed
and your hands are tainted with blood
You can't wash off your responsibility
I can't figure out what you are
trying to say
The Bloody Parrot
If you still regard me as your friend
please send my body back to the border
"Spirtual Tablet of Tie Hen"
How did constable Tie die?
He was poisoned
What poison did he die of?
I don't know
Even you can't figure it out?
As long as the murderer is a human being
I could use whatever means
to figure it out
So the murderer is not human?
No
Sir, inside please
Thanks
Look
Is this a tavern or a coffin shop?
We only sell wine, not coffins
So why is there a coffin here?
That gentleman brought it here
and insisted on putting it here
My turn to toast
Hey, what's inside?
I'm talking to you
My friend is in there
Is he dead or alive?
Doesn't matter, he is still my friend
Do dead people drink?
It's your turn, I'll drink for you
He's nuts, what do you think?
Kick him out
When my friend was alive
he liked kicking people
He was never kicked
he wouldn't like being kicked
either though he's dead
If I used a little more strength
your hand would have become crippled
The Bloody Parrot
The little devil is dead...
This parrot is called the little devil?
Yes
You thought up the name?
No, a girl did
The name came along when she gave it to me
Who was she?
I have always behaved myself
all my life except once;
And that cost me my life's savings
But the pleasure and excitement
she gave me
was out of this world
Where is she?
It was only a whore house
Which one?
The Parrot Brothel
What was her name?
Xue Nu
Xue Nu?
Is a dead body in the coffin
or is there silver?
Doesn't matter
He's got to be a nut
Indeed... who else'd carry a coffin
to a brothel
He's gone up to Xue Nu's room
She wouldn't like a nutcase
Indeed, how could he compare
with master Yian
Miss Hong Yu
Strange
You are...
Never mind who I am
I want to ask you
which lady are you looking for?
Xue Nu
You're a strange guy;
using a coffin to put your silver
There's no silver in the coffin
You mean that's a dead person?
All I know is he's my friend;
it doesn't matter whether
he's dead or alive
You should at least know one thing
What?
Whether you or the dead person
will stay behind
What's the difference?
If alive, then you'll have to pay,
if dead, it's free
Looks like I'll be the one leaving
Why so impatient?
If I don't go out,
something on me will
What?
Look
Night pearl?
Now you can stay
Why have you drawn such
horrible pictures on the wall?
I like to frighten people
Fear is a stimulation
and drives men crazy
What are these devils doing?
Celebrating the devil king's birthday
This is the devil king?
Yes
You are my devil tonight
Why is this parrot red?
It has been formed by the devil's blood
And the 13 monsters surrounding her
are her slaves and called Xue Nu
You want to be its slave
hence your name, right?
I only want to be your slave tonight
All the devil's blood has been
used up to make this
Bloody Parrot & the 13 slaves?
No, another 13 drops of blood made a stone
which could seize one's soul in a wink
It's called bloody rock
Is this it?
Bloody rock
I could see the Devil King
This woman is mine
Bastard, scram
Who the devil are you? Speak
Bastard, you got my woman
I'll kill you
Are you okay?
I'm fine. Very kind of you indeed
Who is it?
I'm okay, you may leave
Who is she?
My wet nurse
Now I know the stone you gave me
was an aphrodisiac
Why did you say it was the devil's stone?
Because the story of the devil
and the Bloody Parrot
fascinated me
I don't like the story,
and more so the picture
Who drew this?
I heard Han Gu Studio did that
I'll get some white powder
and plaster over it
The Han Gu Studio's owner
has been dead for 3 years
and his shop has not operated since then
Do you want to buy lime powder?
You can still get it before I sleep
Who are you?
How do you know what I want?
Everyone calls me roundworm
It's no wonder then, that
you know my thoughts inside out
You want to plaster the wall and stay here
But you wouldn't stay long as
you might die before the wall dries
Boss, some wine?
Sorry...
Who asked you to come and kill me?
I did
You're after my life?
Xue Nu needs to do business
she can't afford to support a man
Why do you say this?
I brought her up
so she should listen to me
I am past my weaning period
Old madam,
don't boil with anger
This is the lime powder you want
You want to kill me too?
Yes
Also because of Xue Nu?
That was my intention
You seem to have good skills
and could fight with me
Oh?
But I must warn you
Xue Nu is mine
If she supports a man, that should be me
You are not a better man than me
Just marginally; your nose is a bit flat
Now you really look like a gigolo
I'm finished...
Not yet
If I cut you one more time,
your handsome face will be ruined
Get lost
Summoning the spirits
Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad
is potent and binding
Summoning the spirits
Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad
is potent and binding
Cut off his nose, gouge his eyes
and eviscerate him
Summoning the spirits
Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad
is potent and binding
Cut off his nose, gouge his eyes
and eviscerate him
Take out his heart to feed the dogs
This woman is a witch
Even the people here are afraid of her
Because her curses are efficacious
It's just that she's not the one
who wants to kill you
Who is it then?
Madam Li
Why does Madam Li want to kill me?
I never ask why
So you're Gao Huan, the Long Sword?
Aren't you going to fight?
I don't want anything more to happen here
Please leave the town immediately
Who are you?
Why are you dissolving the corpse?
I am An Zhi Hao, the major of this town
Because someone who is much
higher in rank than I am
and more famous than Tie Hen
is going to be here soon
Who is he?
Lord Chang, Chang Xiao
Chang Xiao, the Deadly Sword
You'd better be smart and leave quickly
Thanks for your advice
But there's still something
which I don't understand
What is that?
Who is Madam Li?
Why does she want to kill me?
She's the mother of Xue Nu
Xue Nu
Madam Li?
Guo Huan is dead
Pass on my order that Ye Ting Feng
must be killed
or I'll have to be rude
Has your nanny been here?
No, I fell asleep after you left
Did you see her?
She's after my life
I've been here for only half a day
and everyone here wants to kill me
Wonder if there are any
secrets between them that
I am not aware of?
Could you bring me to meet someone?
Who?
Madam Li
You really want to see her?
What do you want?
I'll gouge out your eyes;
see if you still want to see her
Why don't you let me see her?
She's a witch
You'll never see me again
when you meet her
I don't want you to leave me
Did someone move this coffin?
No
Tie Hen, I'll give you a proper burial
Stop scaring people here
Who are you talking to?
Did you say something just now?
That's right, it's me
Open the coffin
What for? There's just a corpse inside
Apart from a dead person,
fugitives, bandits, smuggled goods,
booties...
All of that could be stored there
But...
But what?
If anything should happen
after opening the coffin...
What could happen?
This person used to be very fierce
he could become an evil spirit after death
He could do anything
Bullshit, open the coffin
Yes
Is he dead or alive?
Feel him for yourself
Xue Nu, wake up
Did you see my friend inside the coffin?
What about him?
He's gone
Look, the footprints...
Blood
"Peace Inn"
Although they are not as experienced
as you
they are still considered experts
even amongst you
You'd better not hide anything from me
Don't give me reports like those
of Tie Hen's
Get lost, I'm doing business here
Get lost
I won't allow this, get lost
You cannot do business then
Not letting you off easily even
when I become a ghost
If there were ghosts
I would have died a thousand times
and wouldn't have survived till now
Have you found out the cause of his death?
He was poisoned
Poison or secret weapon?
Don't know yet
Cut up his heart yet?
His heart too?
Of course
Yes
Master Xiao
I don't think you'd be able to
find out anything
There're some tiny needles in the knees
Master Xiao
The needles and poison
have been made to be deadly
This is a Seven Stars Lethal Needle
You're right, sir
The wound from the rock
is the same as the needle's
It seems likely that the needle
came with the rock
Yes
A poisonous needle is found in the heart
Bring it over
Yes
You're clever
Guess you knew when I ordered
the heart to be cut open
that I'd find out about
The Needle sooner or later;
And hence you had no choice but to confess
But you're not sly enough
or you would have known that
I was testing your ability
How did Tie Hen die?
He was poisoned
What poison?
Don't know
I've read your report on the autopsy
I know
There's something which you should know
I've re-examined Guo Kan's body
Guo Kan died of the same cause as they did
But why couldn't you find The Needle
in Guo Kan's body
Is Tie Hen dead?
What are Tie Hen and you hiding from me?
Are you the Bloody Parrot? Speak
You should know
my men are all good at inflicting torture
You should also know
that a man of my age won't live long
I'm afraid you won't die so easily
You haven't had the power to
control one's life yet
You can't die if I wish it to be otherwise
Where's Tie Hen's coffin?
At the Parrot Brothel
It's been rumoured that Tie Hen
has become a vampire last night
and disappeared
Disappeared?
Zhang Tie, Lin Ping, you two stay behind
Yes
Show me the way to the Parrot Brothel
So you are Xue Nu?
Why didn't you move that coffin out?
This is not mine
Was it Ye Ting Feng who didn't
want to move it?
Didn't ask him...
I haven't seen him yet today
I hear he's gone to look for
his vampire friend
Maybe he's been killed by the vampire
and won't come back
- Wan Zhong
- Yes
Check the coffin
Yes
- Master Hon
- Yes
You & An Zi Hao go check
the two officers' bodies
and bring me the report immediately
Yes
My lord, the coffin has been opened twice
it wasn't nailed secure since then
Open it
Yes
Are you Ye Ting Feng?
Yes
Don't you know a coffin is used to
carry someone dead?
I do
Then why are you sleeping in there?
I don't want to become a dead man
so quickly
Oh? Someone wants to kill you?
Yes, everyone here is after my life
It may not be absolutely safe
to sleep in a coffin
You may actually suffocate & die in there
It's lucky that a vampire has been here
so nobody dares to come close
Vampire?
My lord,
a Seven Stars Lethal Needle was found
in the amputated arm of the dead officer
The Seven Stars Lethal Needle?
Are you sure Tie Hen is dead?
I can tell the difference between
a living & a dead man
A dead man using poisonous needle to kill?
You'd better go and ask that dead man
Demon eyes sometimes appear in the picture
So you covered it up?
Yes
Who's living next door?
Madam Song, she's a witch
Witch?
Vampire? A demonic drawing? Ghost eye?
Go, go and find that witch
Yes
Idiot
Who is it?
She's peeping
See, she worships devilish idols
She must be an expert in using poison
No wonder those things stink
Ask your men not to touch anything
There could be poison stains
Don't open it
Master Tong, antidote
Stop, stop fighting
Are you crazy?
Vampire
Wan Ping...
"lmperial Guard"
All here?
All here, Master San
Here's a thousand taels of silver
What can we do for you?
To go and catch someone
Who is it?
Xue Nu
That's easy, Master San, don't worry, go
Wait, Xue Nu has a personal maid
Her name is Hong Yu &
her embroidery needle is lethal
Be careful of her
Better avoid seeing her
Understood
Go
Go
Tricked
Go
Hurry and go
Be careful
The skin from the seven of you
is just enough for me to make a skirt
Attack
You are Hong Yu
Set the formation
Too bad your formation
can't cover you from all sides
There're some weak points
Since when have you learnt to
turn someone blind?
Thirty years ago
So you are the famous Doll Face
Killer Needle Lady Hong Yu
Hand Xue Nu over to me
She's safer with me
What are you doing here
at the Parrot Brothel?
She's been sent by my mother to protect me
Move the corpse away
You should know that this woman is mine
I know
Why are you taking her away?
I just want to prove one thing
What is that?
A scandal at the residence
of the Prince of Dian
What has it to do with Xue Nu?
Xue Nu isn't the daughter of Madam Li
She's the illegitimate daughter
of the Princess of Dian
and the only survivor in the family
of the Prince Dian
What makes you say that?
20 years ago, I was a painter
at the Prince residence
Although I was a humble officer then
I had the chance to get close
to the Prince
One day, I was summoned
Chief Guo, the painting is finished,
please have a look
Wait, please
The red bats originated from Long Zhou
resided at the Cave, and were licentious
This blood rock was made from
the blood of
a hundred thousand red bats
Once taken,
not only could one live forever
one could be sexually potent
The Prince is known for his lasciviousness
He is also perverse in a certain way
which I do not understand
I've been trying in vain to
figure this out
A year later the Princess gave birth
to a baby
No one knew whether it was a boy or a girl
because on the day the baby was born
someone took the child away
But before that, the Princess hung
a piece ofjade on the baby's body
And from then onwards
no one in the palace ever mentioned
about that baby
It's weird that Xue Nu
has got that piece ofjade;
the same piece
which the Princess left behind
You shouldn't have told me that
That's right, maybe I shouldn't have
It's you
You talk too much
Why did you kill her?
Death is too good for her
what's to be ashamed of?
Unfortunately we've got one lead less
You're so unfriendly the first time
we meet
It's not that easy to meet you
What do you want?
You might be familiar with this thing
It's Xue Nu's jade; also a token
from the Princess
to her illegitimate daughter
What do you mean?
I want to know who you are
What if you knew?
I still want to marry you
You've killed so many people just for this
There's one thing which you still
don't know yet
Undeniably I find you very attractive
But as compared to the treasures
of the Prince of Dian
they are more attractive
There's one thing
which you still don't know yet
I don't know what treasures
you are talking about
and I have nothing to do
with the Prince of Dian
Don't close your back door too early
Your daughter is still in my hands
Do you want to keep the treasures
or your daughter?
This poisonous dart will kill people
in about six hours
This hostage of yours won't help you much
What a vicious woman you are!
Xue Nu
I don't believe that my mother is
so vicious
Treasures
Aren't they the lost treasures
of the Prince residence?
Go
There's a way over there
Xue Nu
So you are the Bloody Parrot
who has been causing a lot of trouble
In reality, there's no such thing
as the Bloody Parrot
It's only an illuminated lamp
What tricks are you playing?
Maybe you would never know
even if you lost your life
In all respects it's to be alive than dead
You are digging your own grave
You are...
When I got involved
in the martial arts world
I no longer had any regard for my own life
But I still don't get it what Xue Nu
has to do with you
What's the Bloody Parrot all about?
There aren't many people
who are not afraid of death
I'll give you a good reason to die today
So you are...
I am the Princess of Dian
He's Chief Guo Fan
So you are still alive
We have not been dead
We've been using the rumours
about the Bloody Parrot
to make up a story
about the lost treasure
No one has ever seen the Bloody Parrot
These have just been set up
by the two of us
This sword has a spring and cannot
kill people
You did this
just to grab all for yourselves
these treasures meant as tribute
to the Emperor
You can put it in whatever way you like
I just love these treasures so much
But you've made the Prince
lose his life for nothing
Death comes to us all
Besides, he was a licentious old man
No wonder it's said that women are vicious
It's also said men are vicious
Can you be at peace with these treasures?
The two famous constables
Chang Xiao and Tie Hen are dead
What have I got to worry about?
Tie Hen is not dead
You should know that he's turned into
a vampire
Do you think a vampire is terrifying?
No
The most terrible thing is you failed
to kill me
This so-called blood rock
supposed to suck one's soul
is a secret weapon with poisonous needles
I am immune to it
When a vampire appeared
at the Parrot Brothel
I should have known that
you faked your death
But you are not smart enough
Had you released my friend
and gone back with me
you might have saved your own life
Thanks to me...
Did you save me?
It's nothing but a parrot
Xue Nu, it's you
in order to celebrate the birthday
of the demon king,
they use their blood and change it
to a Bloody Parrot
If you have the luck to meet it,
it'll offer you three wishes
to fulfill whatever you want
Once Prince of Dian is
preparing to pay tribute to
the imperial court
The thirteen caskets of treasures
to the king
all disappeared within one night
The Prince is perturbed at the news
and decreed Chief Guo Fan
to search at once
When you see me you'll get 3 wishes;
and as long as you live your wishes
will come true
If you are that good then...
then help me retrieve
the 13 cases of lost treasures
The Bloody Parrot has indeed
recovered the lost treasures
and fulfilled chief Guo's first wish
The lost treasures have been found
Bad news, master Guo died from
falling off his horse
Son...
Give me back my son
Give me back my son
"The grave of my beloved son,
Guo Jia Zhong"
You really believe in such rumors?
You really believe a parrot
could bring your son back to life?
I am highly responsible for
the lost treasures
and suffer the greatest suspicion too
The lost treasures have now been retrieved
it doesn't matter whether my son
can come alive
I believe in your loyalty
and also hope your son could be
brought back to life
But...
Don't let him out
You can't let him out
He's dead, he's a ghost now
My son's come back to life
You must be mad
The jewelry is gone...
Since those jewelry disappeared
what might have been a tranquil time
became a tumultuous period
To lay their hands on this treasure
martial artists tried to track down
the Bloody Parrot
They killed each other for this
and hatred was generated
Then hatred gave rise to more killings
However the Bloody Parrot and the treasure
remained a mystery
Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?
The Jewellery of the Prince of Dian
Everybody says it's you... it's you
"Dian border"
"Dian House"
Are you a ghost or a man?
I am the one who's about to die
and as yet not a ghost
Who harmed you?
It's you...
Me? I don't know that
What did you see just now?
A streak of red light,
shimmering over here
Do you know what that is?
No
Of course you don't
When that red light appears,
the Bloody Parrot will soon appear as well
It's just a rumour
No, someone has seen it happen
Who?
Guo Fan
Is he the Chief of the residence
of the Prince of Dian
who lost all the jewellery in a night?
That's him
Where's all the jewellery?
You'd better hurry and leave
the Bloody Parrot...
Where's all the jewellery?
The Bloody Parrot
The Bloody Parrot?
Who are you?
Tie Hen
Are you the famous constable
Tie Hen the Merciless?
That's me
Who are you looking for?
Guo Kan
What for?
He's Guo Fan's brother,
the family's only survivor
Only he can tell me
where the lost jewellery of
the Prince of Dian is
But you're late
What?
Have you found out the cause of his death?
He was poisoned
Do I look like someone who uses poison?
I don't think you would,
but that's because
he hadn't told you the whereabouts
of the treasure
Do you think I'd use poison if he had?
Difficult to say
What did he say before he died?
Why should I tell you?
Because, only I can prove your innocence
He uttered 3 words
What?
The Bloody Parrot
The Bloody Parrot?
I don't believe in such a rumor
I only believe that nothing
escapes justice
Cut it open
You know your stuff,
you should know what this is
This is an anti-poison pellet
and it is also the lost jewelry
Since he kept it
how could he have died of poison?
Some poisons run in the arteries
some in the organs;
they don't interfere with each other
There's someone behind this case
His murder was to silence him
Who is the mastermind?
In fact if we could find one thing
you could easily solve the case
What is that?
The Bloody Parrot
The Bloody Parrot?
It runs away so quickly
Even if you caught up with it,
it may not be a blessing
Fate and death are out of our control
I understand how you feel
Since you entered the cult of the Six Fans
70 to 80 people have died at your hands
I have never killed anyone unjustifiably
Nevertheless, you have killed
and your hands are tainted with blood
You can't wash off your responsibility
I can't figure out what you are
trying to say
The Bloody Parrot
If you still regard me as your friend
please send my body back to the border
"Spirtual Tablet of Tie Hen"
How did constable Tie die?
He was poisoned
What poison did he die of?
I don't know
Even you can't figure it out?
As long as the murderer is a human being
I could use whatever means
to figure it out
So the murderer is not human?
No
Sir, inside please
Thanks
Look
Is this a tavern or a coffin shop?
We only sell wine, not coffins
So why is there a coffin here?
That gentleman brought it here
and insisted on putting it here
My turn to toast
Hey, what's inside?
I'm talking to you
My friend is in there
Is he dead or alive?
Doesn't matter, he is still my friend
Do dead people drink?
It's your turn, I'll drink for you
He's nuts, what do you think?
Kick him out
When my friend was alive
he liked kicking people
He was never kicked
he wouldn't like being kicked
either though he's dead
If I used a little more strength
your hand would have become crippled
The Bloody Parrot
The little devil is dead...
This parrot is called the little devil?
Yes
You thought up the name?
No, a girl did
The name came along when she gave it to me
Who was she?
I have always behaved myself
all my life except once;
And that cost me my life's savings
But the pleasure and excitement
she gave me
was out of this world
Where is she?
It was only a whore house
Which one?
The Parrot Brothel
What was her name?
Xue Nu
Xue Nu?
Is a dead body in the coffin
or is there silver?
Doesn't matter
He's got to be a nut
Indeed... who else'd carry a coffin
to a brothel
He's gone up to Xue Nu's room
She wouldn't like a nutcase
Indeed, how could he compare
with master Yian
Miss Hong Yu
Strange
You are...
Never mind who I am
I want to ask you
which lady are you looking for?
Xue Nu
You're a strange guy;
using a coffin to put your silver
There's no silver in the coffin
You mean that's a dead person?
All I know is he's my friend;
it doesn't matter whether
he's dead or alive
You should at least know one thing
What?
Whether you or the dead person
will stay behind
What's the difference?
If alive, then you'll have to pay,
if dead, it's free
Looks like I'll be the one leaving
Why so impatient?
If I don't go out,
something on me will
What?
Look
Night pearl?
Now you can stay
Why have you drawn such
horrible pictures on the wall?
I like to frighten people
Fear is a stimulation
and drives men crazy
What are these devils doing?
Celebrating the devil king's birthday
This is the devil king?
Yes
You are my devil tonight
Why is this parrot red?
It has been formed by the devil's blood
And the 13 monsters surrounding her
are her slaves and called Xue Nu
You want to be its slave
hence your name, right?
I only want to be your slave tonight
All the devil's blood has been
used up to make this
Bloody Parrot & the 13 slaves?
No, another 13 drops of blood made a stone
which could seize one's soul in a wink
It's called bloody rock
Is this it?
Bloody rock
I could see the Devil King
This woman is mine
Bastard, scram
Who the devil are you? Speak
Bastard, you got my woman
I'll kill you
Are you okay?
I'm fine. Very kind of you indeed
Who is it?
I'm okay, you may leave
Who is she?
My wet nurse
Now I know the stone you gave me
was an aphrodisiac
Why did you say it was the devil's stone?
Because the story of the devil
and the Bloody Parrot
fascinated me
I don't like the story,
and more so the picture
Who drew this?
I heard Han Gu Studio did that
I'll get some white powder
and plaster over it
The Han Gu Studio's owner
has been dead for 3 years
and his shop has not operated since then
Do you want to buy lime powder?
You can still get it before I sleep
Who are you?
How do you know what I want?
Everyone calls me roundworm
It's no wonder then, that
you know my thoughts inside out
You want to plaster the wall and stay here
But you wouldn't stay long as
you might die before the wall dries
Boss, some wine?
Sorry...
Who asked you to come and kill me?
I did
You're after my life?
Xue Nu needs to do business
she can't afford to support a man
Why do you say this?
I brought her up
so she should listen to me
I am past my weaning period
Old madam,
don't boil with anger
This is the lime powder you want
You want to kill me too?
Yes
Also because of Xue Nu?
That was my intention
You seem to have good skills
and could fight with me
Oh?
But I must warn you
Xue Nu is mine
If she supports a man, that should be me
You are not a better man than me
Just marginally; your nose is a bit flat
Now you really look like a gigolo
I'm finished...
Not yet
If I cut you one more time,
your handsome face will be ruined
Get lost
Summoning the spirits

Summoning the spirits

Summoning the spirits
Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad
is potent and binding
Cut off his nose, gouge his eyes
and eviscerate him
Take out his heart to feed the dogs
This woman is a witch
Even the people here are afraid of her
Because her curses are efficacious
It's just that she's not the one
who wants to kill you
Who is it then?
Madam Li
Why does Madam Li want to kill me?
I never ask why
So you're Gao Huan, the Long Sword?
Aren't you going to fight?
I don't want anything more to happen here
Please leave the town immediately
Who are you?
Why are you dissolving the corpse?
I am An Zhi Hao, the major of this town
Because someone who is much
higher in rank than I am
and more famous than Tie Hen
is going to be here soon
Who is he?
Lord Chang, Chang Xiao
Chang Xiao, the Deadly Sword
You'd better be smart and leave quickly
Thanks for your advice
But there's still something
which I don't understand
What is that?
Who is Madam Li?
Why does she want to kill me?
She's the mother of Xue Nu
Xue Nu
Madam Li?
Guo Huan is dead
Pass on my order that Ye Ting Feng
must be killed
or I'll have to be rude
Has your nanny been here?
No, I fell asleep after you left
Did you see her?
She's after my life
I've been here for only half a day
and everyone here wants to kill me
Wonder if there are any
secrets between them that
I am not aware of?
Could you bring me to meet someone?
Who?
Madam Li
You really want to see her?
What do you want?
I'll gouge out your eyes;
see if you still want to see her
Why don't you let me see her?
She's a witch
You'll never see me again
when you meet her
I don't want you to leave me
Did someone move this coffin?
No
Tie Hen, I'll give you a proper burial
Stop scaring people here
Who are you talking to?
Did you say something just now?
That's right, it's me
Open the coffin
What for? There's just a corpse inside
Apart from a dead person,
fugitives, bandits, smuggled goods,
booties...
All of that could be stored there
But...
But what?
If anything should happen
after opening the coffin...
What could happen?
This person used to be very fierce
he could become an evil spirit after death
He could do anything
Bullshit, open the coffin
Yes
Is he dead or alive?
Feel him for yourself
Xue Nu, wake up
Did you see my friend inside the coffin?
What about him?
He's gone
Look, the footprints...
Blood
"Peace Inn"
Although they are not as experienced
as you
they are still considered experts
even amongst you
You'd better not hide anything from me
Don't give me reports like those
of Tie Hen's
Get lost, I'm doing business here
Get lost
I won't allow this, get lost
You cannot do business then
Not letting you off easily even
when I become a ghost
If there were ghosts
I would have died a thousand times
and wouldn't have survived till now
Have you found out the cause of his death?
He was poisoned
Poison or secret weapon?
Don't know yet
Cut up his heart yet?
His heart too?
Of course
Yes
Master Xiao
I don't think you'd be able to
find out anything
There're some tiny needles in the knees
Master Xiao
The needles and poison
have been made to be deadly
This is a Seven Stars Lethal Needle
You're right, sir
The wound from the rock
is the same as the needle's
It seems likely that the needle
came with the rock
Yes
A poisonous needle is found in the heart
Bring it over
Yes
You're clever
Guess you knew when I ordered
the heart to be cut open
that I'd find out about
The Needle sooner or later;
And hence you had no choice but to confess
But you're not sly enough
or you would have known that
I was testing your ability
How did Tie Hen die?
He was poisoned
What poison?
Don't know
I've read your report on the autopsy
I know
There's something which you should know
I've re-examined Guo Kan's body
Guo Kan died of the same cause as they did
But why couldn't you find The Needle
in Guo Kan's body
Is Tie Hen dead?
What are Tie Hen and you hiding from me?
Are you the Bloody Parrot? Speak
You should know
my men are all good at inflicting torture
You should also know
that a man of my age won't live long
I'm afraid you won't die so easily
You haven't had the power to
control one's life yet
You can't die if I wish it to be otherwise
Where's Tie Hen's coffin?
At the Parrot Brothel
It's been rumoured that Tie Hen
has become a vampire last night
and disappeared
Disappeared?
Zhang Tie, Lin Ping, you two stay behind
Yes
Show me the way to the Parrot Brothel
So you are Xue Nu?
Why didn't you move that coffin out?
This is not mine
Was it Ye Ting Feng who didn't
want to move it?
Didn't ask him...
I haven't seen him yet today
I hear he's gone to look for
his vampire friend
Maybe he's been killed by the vampire
and won't come back
- Wan Zhong
- Yes
Check the coffin
Yes
- Master Hon
- Yes
You & An Zi Hao go check
the two officers' bodies
and bring me the report immediately
Yes
My lord, the coffin has been opened twice
it wasn't nailed secure since then
Open it
Yes
Are you Ye Ting Feng?
Yes
Don't you know a coffin is used to
carry someone dead?
I do
Then why are you sleeping in there?
I don't want to become a dead man
so quickly
Oh? Someone wants to kill you?
Yes, everyone here is after my life
It may not be absolutely safe
to sleep in a coffin
You may actually suffocate & die in there
It's lucky that a vampire has been here
so nobody dares to come close
Vampire?
My lord,
a Seven Stars Lethal Needle was found
in the amputated arm of the dead officer
The Seven Stars Lethal Needle?
Are you sure Tie Hen is dead?
I can tell the difference between
a living & a dead man
A dead man using poisonous needle to kill?
You'd better go and ask that dead man
Demon eyes sometimes appear in the picture
So you covered it up?
Yes
Who's living next door?
Madam Song, she's a witch
Witch?
Vampire? A demonic drawing? Ghost eye?
Go, go and find that witch
Yes
Idiot
Who is it?
She's peeping
See, she worships devilish idols
She must be an expert in using poison
No wonder those things stink
Ask your men not to touch anything
There could be poison stains
Don't open it
Master Tong, antidote
Stop, stop fighting
Are you crazy?
Vampire
Wan Ping...
"lmperial Guard"
All here?
All here, Master San
Here's a thousand taels of silver
What can we do for you?
To go and catch someone
Who is it?
Xue Nu
That's easy, Master San, don't worry, go
Wait, Xue Nu has a personal maid
Her name is Hong Yu &
her embroidery needle is lethal
Be careful of her
Better avoid seeing her
Understood
Go
Go
Tricked
Go
Hurry and go
Be careful
The skin from the seven of you
is just enough for me to make a skirt
Attack
You are Hong Yu
Set the formation
Too bad your formation
can't cover you from all sides
There're some weak points
Since when have you learnt to
turn someone blind?
Thirty years ago
So you are the famous Doll Face
Killer Needle Lady Hong Yu
Hand Xue Nu over to me
She's safer with me
What are you doing here
at the Parrot Brothel?
She's been sent by my mother to protect me
Move the corpse away
You should know that this woman is mine
I know
Why are you taking her away?
I just want to prove one thing
What is that?
A scandal at the residence
of the Prince of Dian
What has it to do with Xue Nu?
Xue Nu isn't the daughter of Madam Li
She's the illegitimate daughter
of the Princess of Dian
and the only survivor in the family
of the Prince Dian
What makes you say that?
20 years ago, I was a painter
at the Prince residence
Although I was a humble officer then
I had the chance to get close
to the Prince
One day, I was summoned
Chief Guo, the painting is finished,
please have a look
Wait, please
The red bats originated from Long Zhou
resided at the Cave, and were licentious
This blood rock was made from
the blood of
a hundred thousand red bats
Once taken,
not only could one live forever
one could be sexually potent
The Prince is known for his lasciviousness
He is also perverse in a certain way
which I do not understand
I've been trying in vain to
figure this out
A year later the Princess gave birth
to a baby
No one knew whether it was a boy or a girl
because on the day the baby was born
someone took the child away
But before that, the Princess hung
a piece ofjade on the baby's body
And from then onwards
no one in the palace ever mentioned
about that baby
It's weird that Xue Nu
has got that piece ofjade;
the same piece
which the Princess left behind
You shouldn't have told me that
That's right, maybe I shouldn't have
It's you
You talk too much
Why did you kill her?
Death is too good for her
what's to be ashamed of?
Unfortunately we've got one lead less
You're so unfriendly the first time
we meet
It's not that easy to meet you
What do you want?
You might be familiar with this thing
It's Xue Nu's jade; also a token
from the Princess
to her illegitimate daughter
What do you mean?
I want to know who you are
What if you knew?
I still want to marry you
You've killed so many people just for this
There's one thing which you still
don't know yet
Undeniably I find you very attractive
But as compared to the treasures
of the Prince of Dian
they are more attractive
There's one thing
which you still don't know yet
I don't know what treasures
you are talking about
and I have nothing to do
with the Prince of Dian
Don't close your back door too early
Your daughter is still in my hands
Do you want to keep the treasures
or your daughter?
This poisonous dart will kill people
in about six hours
This hostage of yours won't help you much
What a vicious woman you are!
Xue Nu
I don't believe that my mother is
so vicious
Treasures
Aren't they the lost treasures
of the Prince residence?
Go
There's a way over there
Xue Nu
So you are the Bloody Parrot
who has been causing a lot of trouble
In reality, there's no such thing
as the Bloody Parrot
It's only an illuminated lamp
What tricks are you playing?
Maybe you would never know
even if you lost your life
In all respects it's to be alive than dead
You are digging your own grave
You are...
When I got involved
in the martial arts world
I no longer had any regard for my own life
But I still don't get it what Xue Nu
has to do with you
What's the Bloody Parrot all about?
There aren't many people
who are not afraid of death
I'll give you a good reason to die today
So you are...
I am the Princess of Dian
He's Chief Guo Fan
So you are still alive
We have not been dead
We've been using the rumours
about the Bloody Parrot
to make up a story
about the lost treasure
No one has ever seen the Bloody Parrot
These have just been set up
by the two of us
This sword has a spring and cannot
kill people
You did this
just to grab all for yourselves
these treasures meant as tribute
to the Emperor
You can put it in whatever way you like
I just love these treasures so much
But you've made the Prince
lose his life for nothing
Death comes to us all
Besides, he was a licentious old man
No wonder it's said that women are vicious
It's also said men are vicious
Can you be at peace with these treasures?
The two famous constables
Chang Xiao and Tie Hen are dead
What have I got to worry about?
Tie Hen is not dead
You should know that he's turned into
a vampire
Do you think a vampire is terrifying?
No
The most terrible thing is you failed
to kill me
This so-called blood rock
supposed to suck one's soul
is a secret weapon with poisonous needles
I am immune to it
When a vampire appeared
at the Parrot Brothel
I should have known that
you faked your death
But you are not smart enough
Had you released my friend
and gone back with me
you might have saved your own life
Thanks to me...
Did you save me?
It's nothing but a parrot
Xue Nu, it's you
