Meng Fei plays an orphan named Chang Fung who works as a waiter in his Uncle’s (Ku Chang) eatery. Chang Fung takes a 30 day leave of absence from his job and learns the Drunken 8 Immortal Fist techniques from an old drunken bum who we later find out is named Wu Sing. After learning that the Drunken Bum’s teachings are strict and on the surface, good for nothing, Chang Fung returns to his Uncle’s eatery to work. After thrashing some boneheads at the eatery, Chang Fung realizes that he has indeed learned something from that Bum after all! Due to his new exploits of the drunken style, Chang Fung draws the attention of Master Pai (Chen Sing), an affluent martial arts master who has been searching for a certain Drunken Master for many years as part of his life long agenda. When Master Pai and his associates do the math, they figure that Chang Fung must know Wu Sing, that Drunken Master, so Master Pai devises and schemes a plot to bring down Chang Fang and his family to flush out Wu Sing and kill him once and for all.
