Fuwei Escort Agency
- Lin Yuantu (traditional Chinese: 林遠圖; simplified Chinese: 林远图; Mandarin Pinyin: Lín Yuǎntú; Jyutping: Lam4 Jyun5-tou4) is the founder of the Fuwei Escort Agency (福威鏢局). Previously a Shaolin monk known as Duyuan (Chinese: 渡元; Mandarin Pinyin: Dùyuán; Jyutping: Dou6-jyun4), he returns to secular life and creates the 'Bixie Swordplay' based on Yue Su and Cai Zifeng's recollections of the Sunflower Manual.
- Lin Zhennan (Chinese: 林震南; Mandarin Pinyin: Lín Zhènnán; Jyutping: Lam4 Zan3-naam4) is Lin Yuantu's grandson and Lin Pingzhi's father. He inherits his ancestor's Bixie Swordplay Manual, which becomes a highly sought artefact by many martial artists in the jianghu. He and his wife are captured by Yu Canghai, who leads his Qingcheng Sect to massacre the Lin family and destroy the agency. The couple are later tortured to death by Mu Gaofeng.

Famous quotes containing the words escort and/or agency:
“When you escort someone, escort him all the way to his destination; if you help someone, help him thoroughly.”
—Chinese proverb.
“It is possible that the telephone has been responsible for more business inefficiency than any other agency except laudanum.... In the old days when you wanted to get in touch with a man you wrote a note, sprinkled it with sand, and gave it to a man on horseback. It probably was delivered within half an hour, depending on how big a lunch the horse had had. But in these busy days of rush-rush-rush, it is sometimes a week before you can catch your man on the telephone.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
