Feeling disadvantageous with his sworn brother, Song Hu, Hou sets a trap for Song in a restaurant, under the guise of agreeing to his daughter's engagement to Song's son. Meanwhile, Hou's deputy, Cao Man, feels that he was being used by Hou, and decides to betray Hou. Cao sends assassins to murder Hou and his family. After Hou manages to kill Song with his handgun, Song saves Hou to allow him to escape from the assassin's ambush while sacrificing himself. Hou manages to escape together with his daughter, but his daughter is severely injured when they fall off a cliff. Hou's wife is rescued by some passing-by Shaolin monks, who were stealing rice from the military granary to help refugees living near the temple. In desperation, Hou brings his daughter to Shaolin, begging the monks to save her life, but it is too late and she dies. Hou's wife blames him for the death of their daughter and leaves him. Hou attacks the monks in anger but is quickly subdued.
