Su Can (Stephen Chow), the son of the Guangzhou governor, was framed and became a beggar when he passed the martial arts exam. Because the four elders of the Beggars' Gang killed their leader, Taiyi Zhenren, who entered the court, persecuted the Beggars' Gang everywhere. In addition, the death of the Beggars' Gang leader caused the loss of the dog-beating stick method, and the Beggars' Gang was torn apart and leaderless. With the secret help of Rushuang (Sharla Cheung), who admired Su Can, the elders selected Su Can as the successor of the Beggars' Gang and taught him the key to the dog-beating law. After Su Can successfully learned the skills, he became the new leader and began to unite the members of the Beggars' Gang from all over the country to strengthen themselves and work together to fight against the Tianli Sect. Taiyi Zhenren (Norman Chui) wanted to establish his own army and planned to assassinate the emperor when he was hunting, but the news leaked to Su Can's ears.
