Page "Drunken Master" Paragraph 3

Wong's father arranges for Beggar So to train his son in martial arts.

Beggar So has a reputation for crippling his students during training so Wong flees from home in an attempt to escape his punishment.

Penniless, he stops at a restaurant and tries to con a fellow patron into offering him a free meal.

As he was about to leave after his meal, he discovers that the man is actually the owner of the restaurant.

He fights with the owner's lackeys in an attempt to escape.

An old drunkard nearby is drawn into the fight and helps him escape.

The drunkard turns out to be Beggar So, the Drunken Master.

( Beggar So is known in some versions of the film as Sam Seed, So Hi or Su Hua-chi )
