What happens
The Spiritual Boxer Part II (Chinese: 茅山殭屍拳; pinyin: Mao shan jiang shi quan; lit. 'Maoshan Zombie Fist'), also known as The Shadow Boxing, is a 1979 Mandarin-language Hong Kong martial arts comedy film directed by Lau Kar-leung. It is the thematic sequel to his debut film The Spiritual Boxer (1975). Several of the actors from the first film return, albeit in different roles. The film is notable for being an early jiangshi film based on Chinese folklore, predating both Encounters of the Spooky Kind (1980) and Mr. Vampire (1985). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
