Dr. Wai in "The Scripture with No Words" (Chinese: 冒險王; Cantonese Yale: Mo him wong; lit. 'Adventure King'; released in the Philippines as Adventurer from China) is a 1996 Hong Kong action film directed by Ching Siu-tung and starring Jet Li. It won the Golden Horse Award for Best Visual Effects and was nominated at the 16th Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Action Choreography. During the production, a fire destroyed HK$10 million worth of sets, resulting in severe budget problems. In an attempt to limit the damage, the script was revised and many modern plots were added, resulting the film to have two different endings.
