As a Mandirin and other Chinese dialects speaker for 25 years, I do not think that Indy was saying any bad word on the scene of Bridge.

: I think what he really meant to say is "Xiao Xin, La Zu SHENG Zi". The pronounciation was heavily distorted by Ford (probably because he had to shoot that scene a few times) and he made it sound like bad words for the first two words, and the last four words sounded like he was telling Shorty to pull on to the "strings or threads" (on a rope bridge??)
