Two men, one of them a Taoist priest (Lam Ching Ying) with special powers, including the power to raise and control the dead, must transport a well-preserved ancient Chinese corpse from Europe to Hong Kong for burial in ancestral lands to prevent him from transforming into a Gyonsi (a hopping Chinese vampire). While flying over Africa, their plane malfunctions and its occupants must parachute to safety. Hilariously, they land near the home of the tribe portrayed in the film "The Gods Must Be Crazy." In that earlier film, African native Xi (N!xau) retrieves a Coke bottle that was tossed from a plane and mistakes it for a gift from God. In this one, he retrieves the Chinese corpse.
