Please see the following information: The plot of the 1976 film Shaolin Temple directed by Zhang Cheh and written by Zhang Che and Ni Kuang is divided into three parts. It begins with Fang Shiyu, the Fifth Patriarch and others entering Shaolin as lay disciples, and the middle part shows The process of hard martial arts training in the temple and the mischief caused by the traitor, and finally the highlight of the "Burning Shaolin Temple" scene. The popular stories of Fang Shiyu breaking out of the Shaolin Wooden Alley, Hu Huiqian climbing out of the temple through a dog hole, Ma Fuyi betraying the Shaolin Temple, and the five masters teaching Wing Chun are also described in detail in this film.

Undoubtedly, the biggest attraction of "Shaolin Temple" is still the action scenes, because at that time Liu Jialiang and Chang Cheh parted ways and independently directed "Hong Xi Guan". In order to avoid a collision between the two films, Shaw Brothers asked Ni Kuang to revise the script, so Hong Xiguan, played by Wei Hong, was only a passing character in "Shaolin Temple". The film uses two up-and-comers, Chen Xinyi and Xie Yu, as action directors, and also hires martial arts experts to guide the actors' Hong Quan and Cai Lifu fighting styles. It is also coupled with Chang Cheh's style of bloody violence, making the series of "Shaolin Temple on Fire" even more exciting. The fights are equally effective. In addition, Ti Lung, who has been studying Wing Chun, Fu Sheng, who performs the "Tiger and Crane" very beautifully, and Kwok Chui, who uses acrobatic movements to perform light kung fu techniques, also have wonderful performances in the film.
