Chivalrous Tan Ximin was the protagonist of a famous TV series in 1960s, but Tan Ximin in this film has little to do with the role played by Roya Moya. Tan Ximin (Andy Lau) in the film is charitable. He was brought up by his master Hong Qigong since childhood, so he was proficient in five elements, geomantic metaphysics, astronomy and geography, and made friends with black and white people. Although Tan himself read widely, he refused to accept business for many years in order to avoid robbery. Tan is surrounded by a male secretary () who is loyal to him and admires him. Seeing that he couldn't make ends meet, he tried his best to force him to take a case. This case has been a mystery from the beginning. Chinese-American accountant Roche, who just hired Tan to protect himself, died strangely that day. His wife came all the way to Hong Kong to identify the body and claim the inheritance, but the whereabouts of a property left by Roche are unknown. At the same time, mafia middlemen also appeared one after another, making the scene more lively. It turns out that Fang Yiping, the smuggling eldest brother, used the relationship of Roche Company to launder money before his death. On the other hand, the police also focused on the group, and finally, a thrilling and tense battle for heritage was attracted.
