Wei Chun was given half piece of copper by an old man, Ma Lau-ta while he was in jail. Just before execution Ma told Wei to look for the other half and guaranteed that Wei could benefit from the instructions on the copper. Later Wei escaped from the prison with another fellow named Chau Lun. They went searching for somebody who could unlock their chains. Finally they came across a blacksmith and forced him to break off the chains. After that Wei and Chau left each other and continued to run away. Discovering that Ma had given the half piece of copper to Wei, the ‘Chi Yun’ instructor Tung Hai-feng sent out many of his henchmen to search for Wei. One night these people ambushed an inn where Wei stayed and soon provoked a fight. In the vivid moment, Chau arrived and rescued Wei; but he fled out immediately after they defeated the rivals. Chau saved Wei the second time at a brothel where Wei was being surrounded and under attack by Tung’s henchmen. After a severe fight they arrested one of the opponents and frightened him to explain the reason of chasing Wei. They were told that the reason had to correlated with an event happened twenty years ago ----- A fighting contest was held between Ma Lau-ta and Tung Hai-feng’s uncle who represented the ‘Gibbon Fists Clan’ and ‘Black Tiger Clan’ respectively. After an astounding fight Tung’s uncle was killed. Aiming to exterminate the gibbon fists and discovering that Wei was given the copper by Ma, Tung thus attacked Wei all the time. Then Chau took out a half piece of copper and noticed that it matched with the other half that Wei possessed. On the surface there were characters which indicated ‘Tiger Ridge of Chang Pai Mountain’. Wei and Chau traced this hint and arrived at the ridge where they found the whole sets of documents which recorded the history and explanations of the gibbon fists. From then on they followed the instructions on the documents and finished learning the gibbon fists tactics.
