The male protagonist who scratched his head at the beginning appeared, picked up a branch and threw it into the sky.
Wow, this male protagonist is too casual. He has the domineering arrogance of Conan where he goes wherever he goes, and he is just a ronin who resigns to fate.
The ronin encounters a quarreling father and son. The son can't stand the poverty in the countryside. He wants to become a bandit and is scolded by his father. This scene indicates that the world is really not peaceful, and even the father and son have turned against each other. Among them ,
my father said Duanman's profound words: "Blood will attract evil dogs. If the silk is stained with blood, the silk market will open."
In the empty street, a few barks of dogs were heard, and then a dog appeared faintly with a dead man's hand in its mouth, and then the line of sight came to the silk farm with the door closed. This echoes quickly enough.
There was no one else on the street, only a few windows were secretly opened in the surrounding shops, and some people with frightened expressions looked at the ronin suspiciously. (It feels like this scene often appeared in Hong Kong costume films in the 1990s).
A thief-headed and rat-faced tolerance came to the ronin in a hurry to pimp, and from then on the man learned about the situation of the town - two rogue leaders, named Qingbingwei and Chouyin respectively, were fighting for territory and status. Open the deal.
At this time, a gang of rabble appeared, and it was also the first confrontation between the two sides in the film - the ronin and the rogue.
This confrontation ended successfully in the friendly atmosphere of the ronin's inaction, with the rogues arrogantly shouting, "This is the official way, and dogs can go as they please?"
Afterwards, the ronin came to a small restaurant and learned more about the main contradictions and struggles in the town through the conversation with the down-and-out restaurant owner. Qingbingwei was backed by silk merchants, and Chou Yin was supported by wine merchants. The pillar enterprises of China, rogue gangs and financial business groups always work together.
What's more interesting is that when I was just thinking about how I came up with the name Chou Yin, the restaurant owner explained that the animal was born on New Year's Eve in the Year of the Ox. What's more interesting is that Chou Yin has two younger brothers, the stupid one is called Hai Zhiji, and the sinister and cunning one is called Unosuke, all of which are called according to the year.
So the ronin made a dashing decision, just like where he went dashingly - to eliminate evil and promote goodness for the people of the town and bring peace to the big guy. It is estimated that his tone of voice is so disgusting that the restaurant owner said, "Everyone is crazy, but you are the most crazy
.
" Helping Chouyin for a while and sitting idly by, led to the second confrontation in this film - the Qingbingwei gang and the Chouyin gang.
I knew from "Sunny Days" that although the gang fights looked huge, it was basically impossible to fight. As expected, a governor came between the two factions. , All of them are born in the acting school. So the second confrontation ended in a near miss.
The samurai was certainly not content with that. The third confrontation began - the two factions exchanged hostages, one was used to report criminals to the government, and the other was the useless son of the gangster boss. Of course, according to the usual practice, it is impossible for the two parties to exchange hostages with each other. Sure enough, Unosuke, who was playing a sinister trick, took out the criminal hostage. However, the situation was not one-sided, and the Kiyobei side took out a new hostage—the beloved woman of the boss of the other consortium. The two sides were evenly leveled again, and each went back to his old nest. The end of the third confrontation also meant that the fourth time began immediately.
It was still a hostage exchange. This time the confrontation went quite smoothly. It was resolved peacefully without using a knife or a gun. Of course, this is the last thing the male protagonist, who is afraid of chaos in the world, would like to see.
The samurai pretended to be loyal to Chouyin and took this opportunity to let the woman go and put the culprit on the head of Qingbingwei, and the conflict between the two families began again.
The fifth confrontation rose to a material level. The two sides destroyed each other's treasury, burned the silk farm, and stabbed the winery. If the previous confrontations were just petty and innocuous, this time it directly cut into the opponent's veins. The intensification of contradictions has evolved into an irreconcilable state.
The samurai's plan was successful. Unosuke confronted him while he was drinking a little wine smugly, suspecting that the samurai was interfering with it. The samurai pretended to cover the wine bottle inadvertently in the thank-you letter written by the woman's stupid husband, but the restaurant owner replaced the full wine bottle and removed it. This is definitely a true portrayal of teammates who are not afraid of gods and teammates who are afraid of pigs. The two Tiansha teammates exchanged for the samurai's flattened body.
After finally escaping, the samurai still carried on the sowing discord to the end, and once again framed the Qingbei gang. The result was the sixth confrontation. The disparity in force forced the Qingbingwei Gang to a dead end, and they all died. One side was completely annihilated, and the main contradiction came to an end.
In the last seventh confrontation, the healed samurai came to the empty street again, and walked out of the Chou Yin gang who won the gang fight, just like the scene at the beginning of the film, the difference is that this time the samurai went mad, and the outbreak of the small universe wiped out all evil All power is destroyed.
Peace was restored to the town.
Seven confrontations and seven different contests are interlocking, changing rapidly, and gradually heating up. The seemingly random developments are quite logical, making the whole film particularly full, and there is no way to squeeze in more things or excess things.
In the end, the samurai said goodbye to the town calmly and embarked on a new unknown journey. He seemed to be saying indifferently, "Look, I said I can handle it. I'm leaving." Open..."
Alas, I wrote the film review as a plot introduction, which made me feel sad.
