notice how it really does have its roots in shaolin and how the story about the few escapee monks is actually true cause its not just in kung fu legend but in the legend of the underworld as well, two diff cultures having the same history. So there must be truth in how strong and powerful shaolin kung fu was at one point and how the emperor feared them so much he destroyed them with the help of pai mei.

what a bunch of BS, the so called burning of the Shaolin Monastery was made up by the Hongmen society, claiming that 5 monks survived the fire. They also used dead Ming patriots as part of their membership as a way to recruit members

Pai mei? You mean that one dude from kill bill?
