What are the specialities of ErMei?
Let's get someone's to show
This player Wong is from ErMei

I wanna to play
Please have a look
Hung plays so well
Thanks to the monkeys for the feeling
Don't look this play down

It is not common
This weapon is ErMei Cut
The two ends are like nails
There is a ring at the middle finger
Like the sound of windmill
So shining
This makes people blurred
Then to attack the energy
Some said the general Cheung
He used this weapon
It is good for ladies
Used to be called King of weapons
Men used to carry swords in leisure
Like playing piano and reading
This is a short sword
It is light
It is good for ladies
But some ladies like long swords
It is also called Pair Long Sword
Two swords are more difficult
With two long ends are more difficult
The two ends mustn't tackle
It is not easy
Don't think the sword is soft
It is very powerful
There are also Pair Whips
Whips are soft and hard
More difficult than playing sword
Beginners mustn't use the hard one
Use the balls only, otherwise
it'll hurt the player
To get hurt
This lady with the Pair Whips
She plays so well
It's hard to get close to her
Don't ever think ladies are soft
These 3 sisters are aggressive
Is this play exciting?
WuTaoShan
Also one of the 4 famous mountains
In the North East of Shanxi Sheng
It consists of five peaks
Every peak is broad
It is like a stage
Therefore it is called WuTaoShan
The scenes here are great
No wonder the General Yeung

Some said Monk Lo had been here
Is it the Monk Lo?
Of course not
This monk acts like Monk Lo
He is playing WuTao Fight

King Chak in the Ming Dynasty
Used Pear Spear to kill
Yeung Five used Yeung's Spear so well
When he was in WuTaoShan
He created the plays
Yeung's Spear can attack
Can be used as a stick
Like a dragon from the water
Like a tiger back to the hill
As quickly as a snake
Man is hand, spear is arrow
It is so powerful
3-stick is soft and hard
It is a flexible weapon
It consists of the points of long, short,
soft and hard weapons
It can be used as a long weapon
So powerful

It can hold the enemy's weapon
It is so flexible
We just looked the long spear
Long spear against bare hands
Long spear is the king in weapons
Bare hands are better in attacks
Just to avoid the attacks
Bare hands can fight effectively
However it is hard to avoid
Unless you are quick and flexible
Otherwise you are hurt
Look who is the winner
After the WuTaoShan
Let's look at the LeungShan
Here is the place of Shun
The environment is dangerous
LeungShan is also called Water Leung
This road is ShunKong Road
The road ShunKong passed
Here is the place of Shun
It is the assembly for the 108 men
This is the place for Tornado Li

People then memorized him
His statue was made
Look, he's holding two axes
So angry and great
The axes can chop the trees
They can be used as weapons
What is this child doing?
This play was created by Wu Chun
When Wu Chun was caught
He did nothing under being locked
He could use the foot to fight
He then broke the locks, thus it is called
Unlocked Fight
This lady is Lady General Leung Shan
This is the dress of Suen
To repeat the scene of revolution
This makes people to take part
The history repeats
This weapon is strange
With hooks and holes, it's an old weapon
To attack and defend, so powerful

People then modified it in shorts and longs
This weapon is called Cow Spear
Like a dragon claw

Ming Sword, Deer Hook etc
Two hooks with hairs
Its function is to blur enemies
The hooks can hold weapons
It can be used as swords and knives
Many functions
The player is jumping
In fact he is moving
Man with hook, hook with man
It is unfortunate to hit
Whip in the knife, it is not common
One is soft while the other is hard,
it has two functions
It is difficult to play
Ladies's attention please
This talking martial arts can be multiuses
Don't get involved into two boats in love
It is clear to distinguish knife and whip
It is precious

This is a secret
Let's see
What are the differences?

Strange plays, but it is with power inside
Its style is very unique
There is a say
Wrong plays with the whips
This play makes the gods drunk

No steps and orders
Just to play wrongly
In fact this is the ways of drunk play

Drunk steps not the heart
Its speciality of softness is to fight
against hardness

It is painful
All the dog lovers
Can you learn any from the dogs
Mantis have two powerful arms
For catching food

Five fingers, waists, fore arms and
shoulders need training
Quick, aggressive and accurate
For those of worse KungFu
