Two local deputies are ordered to capture this leader within 10 days; a virtually impossible task. Capt. Leo (Andy Lau) suspects that Mei (Zhang Ziyi), a beautiful blind dancer at the nearby Peony Pavilion, is actually the daughter of the old leader seeking revenge. Capt. Jin (Japanese-Taiwanese star Takeshi Kaneshiro) goes to the brothel, where he drunkenly flirts with Mei, and they both get "arrested" by Leo. When Mei refuses to talk even under threat of torture, Leo suggests that Jin rescue her while pretending to be a lone warrior who calls himself the Wind. The two flee, and the plan appears to work when Mei accepts Jin's faked identity. The pair heads north. But no one is who he or she appears to be, and danger lurks everywhere.
