=Love In The Desert=

=Episode 2=

(Enaqi has the Desert Scroll.)

(Instead of letting Na Zhan have it,)

(why don't I...?)

Old pal,

they saved us.

If we do this,

will we be ungrateful?

Yan'er, I want to drink that.

Get it to me.

Look.

Guo'er.

My quilt was torn when I moved it.

Please help me mend it.

Yes, Your Grace.

Give me some more.

A little bit more, please.

You're bleeding.

It's all right. Thanks for your concern.

There's powder in my camp.

Come get some.

Actually, my caravan

also planned to go to Yunpei.

What do you sell?

Fur, cloth, spices, and ore.

What spices?

Sandal and agarwood.

Where are they from?

The Central Plains.

Which of the spices

is more expensive?

Sandal, of course.

You were robbed.

You must have lost a lot.

I'm just an escort.

I survived,

but the goods were lost.

I think I need a new job.

Drink.

Six. Double six and seven. Seven of eight.

Six.

- Drink it. - All right.

- I'll drink. - Go ahead.

Wrap it yourself.

Come on.

Cheers.

Lianhuan.

Yes, Your Grace?

What are you doing?

Playing and drinking.

I'll dismiss them.

No need.

We had a long trip.

They can relax.

Ask them to sleep early.

Tomorrow morning, we'll move on.

All right.

Lianhuan.

The weather is strange.

Be very careful.

Come on. Let's drink.

What are you looking for?

The bandage ran out.

Sorry. I shouldn't have searched it.

Can... Can you help me?

Thank you.

(He's really up to something.)

Mr. Huo.

Tonight, rest without concern.

But sorry, we have

limited food and water.

We can't keep you for long.

I get it.

Thanks for saving me.

Tomorrow morning, I'll leave.

Hit you.

What are you doing?

Be gentle.

One more time.

Come on. One more time.

Duozai, stop it.

Your eyes are weak. Don't get pricked.

Unless mended, the hole will get bigger.

Then, it can't be mended.

It makes sense.

Guo'er.

Go get the windsock.

All right.

Madam Duozai,

Her Grace asked you to get the windsock.

Guo'er.

Go plug the windsock on the high dune.

All right.

Madam Duozai.

Get up, all of you!

What's wrong?

How long?

How long have you been bullying Duozai?

Forget it.

Who started this?

I'm asking one last time.

It started on the day we set out.

Guo'er started this.

Is that true?

Guo'er, you stand there.

The rest of you can sit down.

If you're tired,

you can go back and sleep.

Kneel!

Your Grace, you're noble.

Even if you willingly marry the Lord,

you have dignity.

But what about us?

We're slaves.

We keep you company

to find a way out for Enaqi.

The trip to Yunpei is dangerous.

I just want to know

how it feels to be served.

What is wrong with that?

Look!

This is the hand of an old lady.

She raised five sons and three daughters.

Now, she is skinny.

What is she doing here?

Going where there's no turning back.

We all had physical and mental suffering

and faced a difficult choice

before starting this dangerous trip.

Don't forget.

We travel all the way for Enaqi!

You can't stand the pain or resist the temptation.

You want to be served.

Then you bully an old lady.

Don't you fear you'll get retribution?

This is a dangerous trip.

Unless we unite as one,

we can't get to Yunpei.

Manmade trouble can get us killed here.

Within today,

anyone who wants to leave can go.

So can the guards.

Just forget you're from Enaqi!

I will not complain.

After today,

those who stay

will go to Yunpei with me.

After that,

we'll leave our lives to fate.

Chief.

Speak.

The pretty's convoy travels slowly.

We'll catch up in half a day.

Got it. Sit down and drink.

Drink.

Take it away.

We're ready to go.

Yes.

Catch up.

- All right. - Coming.

Your Grace,

are you wary of this guy?

He claims to be an escort.

Yesterday, I tested him.

He knows the price and origin of the goods.

But his robe is rather expensive.

I guess he lied about something.

- Shall I...? - Don't kill him.

Let's just be cautious.

But when we set out,

we will wake him up.

It's all right.

He won't wake up very soon.

Old pal, this woman isn't simple.

If we keep pursuing her,

I'm afraid she'll suspect more.

Maybe another time.

Good drug, indeed.

Just a waste of water.

- Fox. - Guys,

all the offerings and money.

Take whatever you want.

Your Grace.

If anyone resists, kill him!

Your Grace, you can't go out.

Your Grace.

Protect Her Grace.

Or shall I wait until they break in?

Stop, all of you.

Drop your weapons and do not resist.

Gentlemen,

we are not your enemies.

We're just passing by.

We don't want to lose our lives here.

Jewelry, water, wine, and food are in the carriages.

We'll give you everything.

Just spare our lives.

In some twisted turn,

we will certainly

repay you.

In the past dozen years throughout the desert,

I've never seen a prey

stand out and negotiate with me.

Not to mention you're a woman.

Pretty,

you have to know.

Since you surrendered,

you've been in my back pocket.

Don't negotiate

with my own stuff.

How dare you!

Lianhuan.

Tell me your name.

I'm just one of the convoys to Yunpei.

My name is nothing.

These offerings

were collected by our tribe

for entirely five years.

It's the thorn in our flesh

and the blade that scrapes us.

Now,

we will give you everything.

Please spare our lives.

Na Zhan will not get anything.

Chief,

we can't abandon

the miserable land where we were born and raised.

Nor can we abandon

our family back there.

Now, they're worried.

If we can't make it to Yunpei in time,

what awaits them

will be a catastrophe.

Why do you laugh?

Do you not have parents?

Do you not have any goodness?

Guys,

where are our parents?

No parents raised us!

Where are our family?

Either eloped or ran away!

Guys,

if you want money, get some money!

If you want a woman, get a woman!

- Guys, come down. - All right.

- Let's go. - Come on.

I, Ruo Wen, am not affiliated with any city.

There's no room for me in this world.

Nor do I care about anything.

Old pal,

such a great chance.

(The Dead Zone)

(Ruo Wen is brutal.)

(But he's good at observing the terrain.)

(He encamps in the Dead Zone)

(with little quicksand and few storms.)

(When they rob people)

(for daily life,)

(the Dead Zone)

(without water or animals)

(can be the best campsite.)

Guys, divide up everything.

Great.

Lianhuan,

ask everybody to stay alive.

Do not struggle for nothing.

Only when we're alive

can we try to get out.

Yes.

You, you, and you.

You guys come with me.

Hurry.

Your Grace, take care.

What is this?

We're done sorting.

Go report to Mr. Wolf.

- Bring back some wine and meat. - All right.

I'll be waiting.

(Herb Volume of the Desert Scroll)

The woman Chief brought back

is really pretty.

After he has a good time,

can we also have her?

Stop daydreaming.

Just thinking.

I want to see Ruo Wen.

I want to see him.

You can't see him just as you wish.

Stop yelling.

Or I'll pull your tongue out.

Get them in.

Hurry.

Behave yourselves.

Then you may live for several more days.

Guys, let's go have a drink.

Let's go.

- Your... - Shh.

Your Grace.

Why are you here?

Why were you kidnapped, too?

What do we do next?

Where's your princess?

She was also taken here.

But she isn't locked with us.

Don't worry. I'll get you out.

So, the Prettiest Lady in the desert

turns out to be her.

Let's drink it up. Come on.

See who drinks faster.

Three bowls.

I won't drink.

You drink first.

You can't hold it. You lost, huh?

You just lost. Here.

Come on. Let's drink.

Guys, enjoy yourselves.

Come on. Cheers.

Five, the best.

Triple six.

- Drink. - Cheers.

Come on. Fill your cup.

Drink.

Aren't you hungry?

We have only one meal a day.

If you miss this one,

you can't eat until tomorrow night.

Interesting woman.

You're full?

Fox, eat this.

All right.

Let's eat.

Come on.

Leaving already?

The Prettiest Lady in the desert.

What makes you so different?

Eyes.

You have angry and proud eyes.

And your heart

is filled with passion and bravery.

Tell me. What is your name?

Chief.

Have a drink and get excited.

I don't want it.

You're my woman now.

I don't want it.

It's not up to you.

In this case,

let me be honest, too.

I'm on a mission

to marry the Lord of Yunpei.

Nobody and nothing

can escape my eyes.

But I once swore.

I'd only marry someone who could unify the desert

instead of a savage bandit

just like you.

For a dozen years in the desert,

no one has dared to underestimate me.

Even Na Zhan wouldn't dare.

Not to mention a woman like you.

What?

Feel bad when a woman despises you, huh?

I can look up at you.

Just release my clansmen.

Negotiate with me?

You know what?

If you weren't this pretty...

Does this blade weigh a lot?

Do you know its name?

Ghost Slayer.

I don't remember how many people

it has slayed.

You drugged me?

So, the drug is working.

Do you know the sap of twin fruit tree?

It weakens you and turns you on.

How shameless!

Tell me.

What is your name?

I will never tell you my name.

Someday, you will.

From this day on,

you'll be my girl.

Don't turn around.

Huo Qingyun?

Still remember my name?

Since you dare to break in,

you should negotiate to my face.

What? Too ashamed to see me?

Do you think you can provoke me?

Fine. If you kill me,

you can't get out of here.

I don't mean to kill you.

So, you want to take her away.

Yes.

Fine.

Exchange her life for mine.

You can take her away.

And my clansmen.

Release them.

I said,

exchange your life for mine.

Or nobody can leave.

Bottoms up.

All right.

Today, I'll let you live.

Drink it.

No.

I don't need this.

Tastes great.

I'll take it

as our wedding wine.

One day,

you will be my woman.

Let's drink it up.

Nice wine.

Let's drink.

Unconvinced? Keep drinking.

- Chief. - Chief.

Chief,

why did you finish so soon?

Chief, is she really that sexy?

She ran away.

Chief, let me fill your cup.

You guys go on.

Go on.

Let's enjoy ourselves.

Let's drink. Come on.

Cheers.

Where are you taking me?

To save your life.

Thank you.

I'm repaying you.

Let me go. I can ride myself.

The ride is bumpy.

And Feita is tough.

I have to protect you.

You pushed my hair back?

The wind blew hard. Your veil was blown away.

Your hair...

I can't see the way clearly.

I'll buy you a new one.

The wind blew it away.

Not your fault.

The wind is to blame. So am I.

What's wrong?

Is the drug working?

I'm cold.

Cold.

So cold.

What? Feeling any better?

Sorry.

It's not your fault.

I failed to protect you.

Hang in there.

An oasis is over there.

We'll spend the night here.

I've secretly hidden these jewels.

Take them as traveling expenses.

I will help you out.

- Open the door. - Yes.

You...

Where are you taking me?

You...

Your Grace.

- Go back. - Where are you taking me?

Behave yourselves.

Have some water.

Don't be so vigilant.

This isn't the water you gave me.

The desert is unstable and people are hard to see through.

I know little about you and I have to be vigilant.

Do you think I'm a nice guy?

You saved me, anyway.

Here. Eat it.

The Eternal Winter Grass is an antidote.

But it'll make me sleep for seven days and nights.

I can't waste so much time.

It's better than dying, anyway.

You still don't trust me.

I have to reach Yunpei within five days.

Otherwise, it'll be too late.

What? Are you all right?

Yes. I'm fine.

So hot.

You can't continue like this.

Hurry. Eat it.

No.

I will get over it.

Stop being stubborn, will you?

Does the trip to Yunpei matter more than your life?
