Martial‑arts master Tseng Tien‑Tu is hired by the crime lord Lung Tung Chien to transport a priceless jade horse. When the horse vanishes, Chien extorts Tseng’s life savings as compensation, pushing the bewildered master toward madness. Meanwhile, two slick swindlers, Li and Lung, convince Tseng that Chien has double‑crossed him, hoping to exploit his fury to locate Chien’s hidden stash of stolen fortune.
