Itara, el guardian de la muerte

Itara The Guardian of Death

What are you doing here?

How dare you profane this sacred place with your impudence? Leave

Li Pei, I have come to take the Seven Sacred books of Tonjen

Ah, Jin Mai, I know you,

you were my student at the Shaolin temple

and now you serve the enemy Lao Tze.

There is nothing for you here

Search!

Energy can't immobilize me Li Pei!

Hold him

What is this?

What are these triangles doing here?

What do they mean?

Where are the books?

They have been in our care for over 2000 years,

the venerable symbols of good shall never fall into the hands

of the children of violence

What does this mean?

You don't want to talk but you soon will. Torture him

Talk bastard!

Answer me, who has the Seven Books Li Pei?

Where have they been taken?

You will never have them

because what you want is to learn the secrets and mysteries

of the thousand buddhas

Yes, because you would never reveal to the world what you had and I will

I will be powerful

Now I see that you mean to destroy our sect,

to bury the wisdom of the ancient philosophers

You're mistaken, I only follow the law

I never taught you that an executioner

was the best interpreter of the law Jin Mai

Enough, I'm sick of listening to you

Soon all the Taoist temples will be destroyed

whether you like it or not

and you'll have to obey me or you shall disappear

Have mercy master, I'll give you the key to the triangles

Take them, put them on their sides.

They shall give you the answer

What an audacious trick Li Pei.

Now I know that Itara has fled the country with them

There is no border that is able to stop me

Sooner or later I'll have him in my power

and I fear you won't see him again

Let's go

Relax Master, rest

Master is dying, he's in his death throes

You must preserve

the spiritual life of our country

Search out the younger generation

and save them from selfishness, from violence

Is something wrong teacher?

No Fernando, nothing's wrong. Let's go

Did something happen Shumara?

I've been waiting for you to have tea

That's true, I've been very distracted

Are you worried about something?

- No, maybe I'm just tired - Can I help you?

You're very kind, I'm grateful.

Why don't you put this book in the library?

Of course... my pleasure

Don't forget the tea, I'll be waiting

I'll be right down dear

Boys, it's time to rest

The greatness of the Shaolin temple was really amazing

My father was there since his infancy, right Mother?

That's so son.

Your father was raised and trained there along with some Taoist monks

until the great temple...

was destroyed by the Manchu

What do you know of the sacred books of the temple?

According to this there are seven

They're watched over by seven monks.

Your father possesses the seventh

According to him the seven must be reunited

for the great temple to be built again

- And when will that be Mother? - Soon,

the hour draws near

The conditions will be the ones foretold

and then everything will be reborn again

Well?

Does my father know where the other guardian monks reside?

He must know

When the great council decided to protect the sacred texts

the mission fell to your father

He was given the book of great secrets

Without that book the rest can't be deciphered

Do you think he'll let us?

Maybe one day when he thinks the time is right

And now,off to rest

Goodnight

They're the ones I told you about Jin, they're willing

Samir is the leader

Vladimir,

Abdul,

and Albano

They're the masters of the whole union

Do you know the purpose of the trip?

Along with all the details, very interesting right?

We like the idea

If we get a hold of the book the monk has

it can be a very interesting journey

I'm not looking for adventures

We'll get that book wherever it may be

They've been in Mexico on several occassions

We know the country well

There's good wine and beautiful women

When are we taking the flight?

Tomorrow in the morning

Lu Tan will make the deposits for you today

Alright, I think you already know the rules of the game

Any mistakes will be costly

Yes, but in this game, to my people,

I'll be the one dealing the cards, understand?

I'd like to read the sacred book you guard Father,

it must be very interesting

- Yes son, it is - Can I see it before the reception?

I'll take you where it is, your age is no longer an obstacle

The great master Li Pei was entrusted with it when he was very young

- Your master, right? - My master

A great master

Come in Ramiro, I was expecting you

Would you like a drink?

Thanks

Don't try to play with me Ray, you haven't kept your word

I've been waiting for you for three days

Wait, I'm not trying to play with you,

the sierra is well guarded and I can't-

That's your problem

I already have what you asked for

The feds are searching that area, right?

They'll never get up there, that's my domain

and besides, the trail is very secure

There's no danger? No one else knows the trail?

Know it?

Well, just those oddballs from the monastery but...

they don't bother anyone

Alright, I'll go pick it up this weekend

I'm warning you now, don't fail me

So long

- Your whiskey dear - Thanks

They're coming

Keep sharp, they're here

Are those the men that called you from Los Angeles?

- I expect they are - Do you know them?

That's a given Yolanda

No matter, they'll be guests at the house

Mr. Luciano, you're looking well

I'm Vladimir, it's a pleasure

- Enchanted - Warm place, isn't it?

Yes, very. Would you like to sit?

Don't mind if I do

- It was a good journey - That's good

These are all friends

Come in, come in, make yourselves at home

A drink? You?

I'm very sorry sir, I don't drink

Oh, well how about the women then?

- We're going to have some fun - Lots

- Oh, what a pretty dance - It's fantastic

Samir, I'm told the sierra is being watched

It's better you stop, there's no reason to take risks

You know me, I have to go

Hopefully you won't regret it

I hope your words aren't prophetic

She's really a magnificent dancer

Don't play with weapons

- Quiet, the boys are meditating - I want to see it

No girls, you know it's forbidden

Don't you see Estella, it's our chance

Yes, let's go

They've been meditating for a long time this morning

Quiet

Look at the master, he's in the air

- No, he's levitating - Levitating?

Yes, he's focusing his mind and controlling his energy

Do you think that's hard? I'd like to be able to do it

Who wouldn't? But to do it requires many years of training and sacrifice

It doesn't matter, I'd love to be able to live here

It's lovely here. It's so peaceful and I think every day they grow closer to god

You're not just saying that for Fernando, are you?

No, here the philosphy is the purity and humbleness of emotions

Here the body and spirit are protected against unhealthy passions

- Let's go before they find us - Yes,let's go

What news is there about the gangsters from the sierra?

We're still working on that sir. We know who the boss is

They plan to carry out an operation any day now

It will be in Rio Escondido

- In Rio Escondido? - Exactly sir

- Rio Escondido... - It's a town on the sierra

Rio Escondido. Intercept them

- Yes sir - As you say

You have disobeyed, you were spying on us during meditation

No, no sir

Don't lie, I clearly felt your presence

Forgive us sir, curiosity is part of the feminine soul

Yes, but curiosity also killed the cat

You aren't prepared for this event, one day it'll be your turn

Don't let this happen again please
