The officially released story of "The Mummy 3" talks about Jet Li playing as China's Qin Shi Huang, who was cursed by the witch played by Michelle Yeoh to become a thousand-year-old immortal "mummy", sealed in the underground palace of the Terracotta Warriors. The archaeological adventurer O'Connell and his son Alex came to China to track down the mysterious parables supposedly buried under the ground. While opening the underground palace, they also released this "mummy" who knows kung fu and can change shape at will. Then they engaged in consecutive fierce battles, all the way to the Himalayas.
