Shu-kan attempts to find medicine to cure Ko’s blindness, and meets two elderly Taoist priests, Kei-moon (Bryan Leung) and Tun-kap (Yuen Cheung-yan).

Shu-Kan is able to cure Ko, who tries to drive him away to protect him; however Bat catches up with them, kills Ko, and kidnaps Shu-kan. To pass him off as the prince and control the throne, Bat tattoos the royal insignia on Shu-Kan’s foot, but he is able to escape the palace while befriending a strange monster creature living in a jar.

According to assistant director Fish Fong, "maybe over 20,000" snakes were used for the film, and most of them died because of the dry ice used in a scene towards the end suffocating them.

[4] Rick Baker and Ken Miller give the film a positive write-up, stating that it is "one of the most original, inventive and well-directed comedy-kung-fu movies ever".
