Such a blast!

Fatso, you left a soldier on my territory.

Take it back!

This land was mine!

You want to take it?

Don't put on airs, small officer.

Everyone knows you used to smuggle salt.

Salt-smuggler! Pull back your troops.

Or...

I'll show you my force!

Just retreat from Master's territory!

Why cross Master's over a few acres?

Have you no shame?

Damn! I thought we're on the same side?

Don't yell at me!

One last time...

What can you do to me?

I would've challenged you directly.

Because I'm not a sneaky sort!

If you've a problem just speak out.

What's the point of...

No wonder...

Ladies and gentlemen.

These are just some cheap tricks

from western circuses.

You're kidding us!

Let's go.

Master Chen.

Please stay!

Yes, Master Chang?

Fire

is a gift from heavens.

Fire can cook.

The fate of mankind

has changed.
