Tien Peng plays a mysterious stranger who comes to town looking for the other half of the map. Lo Lieh and Tan Tao Liang play prison inmates who escape and end up actually being ex-comrades with Tien Ping and assisting he and Violet in apprehending Master Wu (Chang Yi), the security chief who does most of the fighting for the warlord. Master Wu turns traitor in order to get the map.
