When he knew he couldn't outfight Deun Yin Hing, and that it would be politically inconvenient for him to ask the monks of the Celestial Dragon Temple to do it for him, Dali King Deun Jing Ming turned to his friend the Yellow Eyebrowed Monk for assistance in dealing with Deun Yin Hing so that Deun Jing Ming could rescue his nephew Deun Yu from captivity at Chung Man Sau's 10,000 Calamities Manor.
The problem was that the Yellow Eyebrowed Monk's martial arts weren't even up to the level of Deun Jing Ming, let alone Deun Yin Hing. There was no way that the monk could defeat Deun Yin Hing in a straight fight, so he didn't try.
Instead, the Yellow Eyebrowed Monk engaged Deun Yin Hing in a game of go, which diverted Deun Yin Hing's attention while Deun Jing Tsun's subordinates quietly rescued Deun Yu using their own methods.
Was that the reason for the Yellow Eyebrowed Monk's presence...just to be a distraction for Deun Yin Hing?
