In the early years of the Republic, banditry plagued Longdong City. In the wilderness, an ordinary caravan was attacked by bandits. The wealthy heiress Shen Yunshan, who had run away with the caravan, was targeted by the bandits. Shen escaped on horseback into the city but still couldn't escape their clutches. Inside the city, Lei Fa, a young shopkeeper from Lei's Knife Shop, saw Shen being bullied by bandits and rushed to her rescue, thus offending the notorious "Second Rod" Tie Zhang. Uncle Lu, the shop steward, fearing retaliation from the bandits, paid a hefty sum to hire bounty hunter Fu Xuanyang to protect Fa. Shen Yunshan clung to Fu, and the three went into the knife shop together. Fa was constantly at odds with Fu. Meanwhile, Ren Weiming, the forward commander of the local warlord Ma Dashuai, was dispatched to Longdong to eliminate bandits. Unexpectedly, he colluded with County Chief Jia and forged an alliance with the bandit leader, the One-Eyed Black Wolf, planning to use "fake military action while genuinely supplying weapons" to arm the bandits, thus strengthening their power. Tie Zhang, ruthless and violent, bloodied the knife shop. Only a few, including Fu Xuanyang, Fa, and Shen Yunshan, managed to survive, while the rest of the staff either died or fled. Fa was determined to avenge Uncle Lu and drove the troublesome woman Shen Yunshan away. The Black Wolf captured Shen Yunshan and forced Lei Fa to submit. Ignoring Fu's advice, Fa insisted on rescuing Shen but ended up trapped in the bandits' dungeon with her. Fu, having no choice, had to infiltrate the bandits' lair to save Shen and Fa, and used the secret technique taught by his master to kill Tie Zhang. The Black Wolf, furious that Fu had killed Tie Zhang yet admiring his martial skills, sought to recruit Fu Xuanyang. The brave actions of the three inspired the common people in the city. Seizing the momentum, they destroyed the bandits' stronghold in the city – Juyuan Zhai, but Fu and Fa were arrested by County Chief Jia on charges of inciting trouble. County Chief Jia advised the skilled Fu Xuanyang to side with the Black Wolf, but Fu Xuanyang refused. Meanwhile, Ren Weiming, under the pretense of supplying weapons to the bandits, was actually fighting them. He killed several bandits and, after returning to the county office, released Fu Xuanyang and Fa, officially declaring war on the Black Wolf. The Black Wolf, enraged, posted a notice demanding the citizens hand over Fu Xuanyang, Fa, and Ren Weiming, threatening to slaughter the city in three days if they refused. Once the decree was issued, panic spread throughout the city, and the people scattered to save themselves. Only in the knife shop was there a bustling atmosphere, as everyone actively prepared to fight the bandits. County Chief Jia, not wanting to become a victim, fled with his wealth but was caught red-handed by Fu Xuanyang. Fu snatched away Chief Jia's silver and prepared to escape. Ren and Fa, along with the other staff, rallied together, ready to confront the bandits coming to slaughter the city. Fu Xuanyang was confronted by an old shopkeeper who he had once advised; the shopkeeper, having taken Fu's advice, unexpectedly brought Fu back to the knife shop instead of letting him escape. Fu had no choice but to agree to join the resistance against the approaching bandits, strategizing to use fewer to defeat more, and the weak to overcome the strong. The bandits attacked from four directions along the city walls, but a few, along with the common people, used their wits to stop the One-Eyed Black Wolf from entering the city gate. Taking advantage of the situation, Ren Weiming launched a surprise attack on the Black Wolf's lair, forcing the Black Wolf to face attacks from both sides. Fu cleverly used the small fireballs made by Shen to turn the tide, forcing the Black Wolf into a passive position. Realizing the situation was dire, the Black Wolf attempted to flee but was pursued by Fu. The two fought, and at a crucial moment, the Black Wolf was captured by the arriving County Chief Jia... Another head was added to the wooden cage at the city gate. County Chief Jia gained merit for eliminating bandits and maintained his position. In the end, Shen Yunshan and Fa finally learned Fu Xuanyang's name.
