The story takes place in a sacred Buddhist spot-Wutai Mountain, Shanxi Province-during theQing Dynasty.
Emperor Kangxi fathers a bastard son named Long'er by village girl Meizhen when he inspects Wutai Mountain. Furious, Qu Fengwu, Meizhen's lover, mutilates Long'er's testicle.
Long'er becomes a monk and changes his name into yuankong. Some 20 years later he is granted the title, honored monk, by Kangxi. So he becomes a powerful person among the Buddhists around Wutai Mountain.
Meanwhile, a mysterious monster, the "Black Dragon", appears in the area. He always appears on wedding nights, violates birdes and cuts off grooms' testicles.
Emperor Yongzheng, Kangxi's successor, appoints Sima Zhen as an imperial minister to
investigate the case. With the assistance of Qu Fengwu, a KungFu hero, and through many dangerous situations, Sima Zhen finally finds out that the "Black Dragon" is none other than the crazed Yuankong.
Chased by government soldiers, Yuankong jumps off a cliff. His mother, Meizhen, also commits suicide in despair. Meritorious minister Sima Zhen is killed by poisonous wine bestowed by Emperor Yongzheng. Qu engwu, who deeply loves Meizhen, leaves his family and becomes a monk.
