Shaolin Abbot

The Monk Chi San is sent by his Shaolin masters to learn a special kung fu from a Wu-Tang priest and befriends his niece Wu Mei. The priest's brother, Pai Mei, who disapproves of associating with Shaolin rebels who oppose the Qing, leaves as his nephew remains behind to cause trouble for Chi San. While Chi San is in training, Pai Mei is promoted by the court and arranges for the Qing soldiers and a northern Lama to attack and destroy the Shaolin Temple. Chi San arrives too late as the attack has already run its course, his master orders him to go to the south to search for loyal Shaolin men and rebuild the temple.
