Things You Would Never Know Without Chinese Swordsman Movies

1. Being the hero's parents will always be unlucky and will usually be killed by enemies when the hero is young and the hero will become an orphan.
2. When a man is wounded and dying, he always manages to catch his breath and speak a few sentences to reveal the killer before dropping his head and being declared dead.
3. Skilled people are able to fly over roof tops, up trees and across distances without any sweat. But when traveling to towns and villages, they still have to walk or ride horses.
4. The heroes need not have to work for money, but will always have gold and silvers with them to pay for their dishes.
5. The heroes and villains will meet each other very often no matter how big the country is and no matter where they are.
6. Healing internal wounds in the body is as easy as sitting down cross-legged, palms on the knees and smoke coming out from the head.
7. They can keep a lot of stuff in their sleeves and waistband and never drop them (carrying especially lots of those gold and silver ingots)

- the hero and the leading lady always have the time to chat and express feelings for each other when in immanent danger.
- all swordsmen can fight off a thousand canon-fodder soldiers without missing a beat.
- all swordsmen can sweep away lightning fast arrows with their swords or with their sleeves.
- some swordsmen can catch a mini flying dart with their finger tips.
- some are so powerful, can shoot lasers with their finger tips, generate enough chi to cause explosion from the ground and demolish a house/small village.
- some can freeze ppl by tapping on certain parts of the body.
