CHING and ZANG are both very fond of ZHI, an extremely talented lad. They have made a deal and based on their agreement, ZANG will have to teach ZHI some kung fu every time he loses a game of chess. Time passes away, and ZHI has already grown up and inherited much of ZANG’s kung fu. ZANG intends to depart from Mt. Huashan to recover the Iron Sword from YU while CHING has started to teach ZHI another kind of kung fu. CHING learns that the whole country is in chaos and decides to save his fellow countrymen who are all suffering. ZHI has finished studying ZANG’s kung fu and is leaving Mt. Huashan to offer CHING support. HUI misses him very much. ZHI enters a cave and finds the Golden-snake Sword. There he also discovers ZHENG’s body that he mistakes for XIA’s. He believes that XIA has died already. As he is burying the corpse, he finds XIA’s treasure map and kung fu book. He is immensely interested in the kung fu book.
