Sound of the Desert Episode 17
Jiu Ye. By not eating, drinking, and sleeping
will only ruing your health and worry everyone.
It seems that the matter of finding Xin Yue
will definitely take a long time.
You need to take care of your health
right?
We tracked her down after leaving Jian An City
But when we tracked to Liang Zhou Inn
All the clues are gone.
We can't find any news of her.
Tell me
How did she just suddenly
vanish?
Jiu Ye, we searched all of the Desert
Really, there's nowhere left to search.
There is
There's one other place
Uncle Chen
I'm here today to see if General Wei
has any news of Xiao Yue
or has already found her
Jiu yue
I honestly do not know.
Our young master is preparing for war on the Emperor's orders
How can he receive news of Miss Xin Yue?
Although before she left, Miss Xin Yue has
left our young master a letter.
But as far as I know
Miss Xin Yue was planning to return to the Desert when she left
She never told us where she was going
If that is the case
If General Wu finds Xiao Yue, please let me know
Jiu yue
Forgive me for taking advantage of my senior age
Since Miss Xin Yue
did not leave any message for Jiu Ye
Miss Xin Yue must not want to be involved with Jiu Ye
Then why must Jiu Ye be so persistent in this conflict?
Uncle Chen, look at what you're saying
How can you be the type of person that takes advantage of your old age?
But you are an outsider
You shouldn't improperly judge me like this
I think it's not that like
I've seen with my own eyes that Jiu Ye gave Miss Xin Yue money
to come to Jian An City
Unfortunately, there was no opportunity for Jiu Ye and Miss Xin Yue to meet
The road didn't run smoothly
giving other people the advantage
Uncle Chen, what do you mean?
Big brother
I always think that Heaven is being unfair to Jiu Ye
But looking at today, Heaven is still benevolent
Miss Xin Yue is a warmhearted and grateful person
When she was in trouble, she encountered Jiu Ye's aid.
There's nothing against her grateful attitude towards Jiu Ye
But to be completely honest
Our young master and Miss Xin Yue are a perfect couple
Uncle Chen's loyalty to General Wei
is General Wu's luck
Jiu Ye, I'm just stating the facts
Jiu Ye is a rational person
Since Miss Xin Yue decided to leave
why must Jiu Ye be so persistent that he makes it difficult for everyone?
Uncle Chen, you're going to far!
Brother, don't be impolite
If I have insulted you
please forgive me
Uncle Chen is just protecting his master
I understand. Excuse my disturbance. Farewell.
Please go safely
Your horse-riding is really good
I can't believe you can learn up to this level in such short amount of time. I'm impressed.
I think now you can feel
the fun of riding freely
I force you to learn horseback riding
is because I hope one day, we can ride side by side
Stop
I learned horseback riding is not to be with you
But I believe you must like the feeling of the wind
I don't want you to miss out on this kind of experience.
Tomorrow I will lead part of my troops back to Jian An
Don't worry, I won't force you to come back with me
However, you can't secretly go back to the Desert
Don't you still have to teach Li Cheng martial arts and hone your horse skills?
I will come back quickly
Xiao Yue, I won't do anything
I'm leaving the first thing in the morning. I just want to be by your side a little longer.
I'll just lie at the bedside
Is that okay?
I just had a dream,
I dreamt that as soon as I returned from Jing An, You were gone
And then I rode my horse
Non stop running.
But I couldn't find you no matter what.
Xiao Yue
Can you promise me?
No matter what happens,
You won't run off
You won't leave me.
I won't leave without saying goodbye ever again
Even if I need to go, I will tell you first.
Good, then
I will definitely make you reluctant to say goodbye to me
This person...I give you a little colour and you can open a dye house. (insatiable)
Oh yeah, after you arrive at Jing An,
you can't tell anybody where I am.
any person?
Okay
If Qin Xiang knows that I am together with Wei Wu Ji
She might just destroy Luo Yu Fang.
I thought that if I threw around a couple of letters,
I can escape Jian An City's gossip and fighting.
But in the end, life is as what Aunt Hong says.
It's a bunch of unrelenting vines.
You can't just leave and forget everything with a turn.
It will be morning soon, hurry and sleep some more
I almost forgot,
What is this?
What you wanted the most, you don't remember?
I don't understand what the writing is supposed to mean.
Is it saying that I am desiring two stars but in the end, only hurt the shadow?
The previous statement is more appropriate to be used on Wei Wu Ji.
but no matter how I explain,
the latter statement reveals something ominous.
He stood below the Sophora Japonica tree without moving,
He went back to find this fortune stick
Why is he doing so much?
Why do I only feel it now...
that he has always been next to me, watching over me?
Young master has come back
Uncle Chen
Young master returning to Jian An, is there an important matter?
Even though my army won the battle at He Xi,
but we've also suffered heavy casualties.
The Emperor ordered me back probably to rearrange the army.
Then continue chasing and take over the He Xi path.
From the sounds of it, you will be returning to the army soon?
Then, how come I don't see miss Xin Yue?
I told her to stay the army camp
It seems she doesn't want to return to Jing An at the moment
That is good too, it avoids gossip.
Young Master
Young master, Jiu Ye sent somebody over requesting to meet.
Jiu Ye's informant is very up to date.
Our Young Master just returned to Jing An, and he already knows
Uncle Chen, Jiu Ye wanting to find out about Xiao Yue is natural, Don't be rude.
Yes
Reply to Jiu Ye's messenger that I will definitely correspond.
Jiu YeGeneral Wei
Jiu Ye wanting to meet must be to find out the whereabouts of Xiao Yue right?
Can General Wei tell me honestly?
Where is she now?
My apologies, I also don't know.
General Wei must have sent people to find Xiao Yue
I am to blame for not treating her well at the time
and didn't treasure her.
This may be heaven's punishment for me
You're right
Happiness was once with you,
just that Jiu Ye didn't treasure it well.
I hope that my wrongs won't become my life's regret
I hope that I will see Xiao Yue again
If you are able to find her(Xiao Yue)
I ask that you can let me know
It all depends on what Xiao Yue wants
If it is something that Xiao Yue doesn't like, I will definitely not do it.
General Wei is firm and unyielding.
I have a request to make
If you see Xiao Yue, please relay to her
that I will definitely wait for her to come back
Jiu Ye is a honest and bright man.
If you missed out, then you missed out
Was what Xiao Yue went through not enough?
Why let her continue to suffer with Jiu Ye
That's wrong,
I hope to use the future to compensate
Do you know what is best for her?
What she needs,
is definitely not somebody who doesn't treasure her
It's been one hundred strokes already, one hundred strokes!
It's already been 100 strokes yet you're still hittingYou need to keep your word!
If you don't want to die before going on the battlefieldThen you need to practice more frequently!
You cannot foresee what happens on the battlefield!
It is all based on instinct!
Clean up your wounds
At night I'll take to you to the market to eat a good meal.
To nourish your body.
Then put some good words for me to the GeneralTo let me go to the battle front to kill enemies!
Alright, Go wash your face
Please, enjoy.
What is this thing?
Red date, goji broiled chicken
It smells of medicine so strongWe're eating this?
You got a problem?
This is much better than army food.
You don't even see oil in army meals
Of course it can't be compared
Although this is good, the smell of medicine is so strongIt's like what pregnant women eats.
You've been losing quite a bit of blood lately
So I ordered this for you to boost your health
Stop with the nonsense and eat.
Two brothers, have you seen a central plains lady this tall, not oversized or undersized
Looks wise, she is quite beautiful
Haven't seen herThank you
This face, I might have seen him somewhere before.
Waiter, the two men from earlier Are they from town?
No, looks like they are servants from a wealthy family.
It seems somebody left home, they're looking for a girl.
I'm guessing she was kidnapped by bandits
It's so chaotic these days, the people can't live on anymore
Might as well become a bandits
We don't even know how people should protect themselves anymore
That lady is most likely in danger.
It's because of the Jie tribe. If we would beat and chase them away,
Then everyone can peacefully live their lives and not be bandits
Forget it
Either way, the Jie Clan is your enemyThere's no use in saying anything
Let's finish eating
General pays respects to Mister Xin.
I recognize you, what is it?
This is General's letter to you
Si Ma Le and I will lead some troops from the the Du Ye mountains
to attack the Jie Tribe.
Li Ji i coming with us to battle this time.
Don't worry, he's with his father Li Da, setting out from Right Bei Ping.
We're both leading an army.
Before the end, chances of meeting are low.
After you get this letter, go with the messenger.
I'll see you at Du Mountain.
The General has instructed me to bring Young Master to Du Mountain.
The General must have given further instructions.
I can't not go. Might as well.
However, I want to bring Li Cheng with me
Can you fulfill this request?
I do have the rights to order this.
I'll order the commander to release him.
Then I can answer the General when I meet him.
Then wait here for a bit, I'll get ready.
What did the General tell you to do?
That is making you this nervous.
It's not just the General's order.
Before I left, my father nagged me the whole night.
And I didn't know what to do.
I was really afraid that you would reject it.
Your father?
The General's butler.
Then you know I-
Look how your General is tormenting me
In my lifetime I've only ever tormented othersNever the other way around
Destiny brings enemies together.
I didn't say it, my father did.
Wait here
Let's go, we're heading out
General, Mister Xing has arrived.
I haven't seen you in a month, and I fully worried for that month.
I was afraid that when I wake up, you will leave a letter and disappear.
Since you are someone who doesn't like to tell the truth but this is still considered as admittance.
You really like to do what you please.
Not considering at all about how other people think of or view this
Let go.
General, the others are waiting for you.
I'm going to discuss about the war.
You're fighting yet you call me here? Hey!
What kind of lie can I make up this time?
Certain martial arts need hugging each other to train.
For the next battle against the Jie Tribe, we'll set out from Du Mountain.
As for General Li Da and General Zhang, they lead more than 10,000 men
and attacked the Left Sage King of Jie Tribe with the supported the main West army.
From what you are saying, my soldiers must attack from both directions
Correct
However, the desert is extremely complicated
General Si Ma, you must be familiar with the area,
Then my army will achieve both goals
General Wei, don't worry.
We have been in and out of the desert countless times
This is not a problem.
Then that's good.
As long as my men's ambush succeeds, together with General Li Da's attack,
Then we can prevent major casualties
We will lead the troops
I will definitely meet you at the place and time of plan.To join up with you.
Good.
The troop will set off in two days time.
This time, we will attack from three directions Yes!
Brother Xiing
Little Master.
Brother Xing, I beg youI beg you
I know your relationship with the General is better than normal
I beg you,You promised me
If I completed 100 strokes
then you would let me go with the General to fight Jie Clan.I beg you to keep your promise
To let me go with the General to fight.
Get up then talk
Brother Xing, You have to promise me
I have to get revenge, for my parents
To avenge my family
But the battle field is not a children's playground.
I'm not afraidI am also not afraid of death.
Brother Xing, help meplease help me
Brother Jin, please fulfill my request.
What's wrong?
Sitting here all by yourself, What are you thinking about?
I'm at the army camp, what else can I be thinking about
Of course, it's about killing the enemies.
Don't worry, I am here.
The people from the Jie Clan won't be able to hurt you.
I'm not worried about myself
I'm worried about Li Cheng.
I promised him that I would ask you a favour
to let him go on the battlefield.
But he doesn't understand, the cruelty of war.
When he is on the horse, he only gets one shot.
Sometimes, it doesn't mean that you are good at combat skill that you can survive.
But avenging his parents is something that he must do.
People are like this.
As long as he has done what he wants to do
It is worth it, with no regrets.
Really?
Unless you believe that he will allow himself to continuously live peacefully?
If this was so, then he would have never joined the army.
Of course, not everybody
is able to come back alive from the battlefield.
Liar. You just told me eariler that
you will make sure nothing happens to me.
But that is because I am Wei Wu Ji.
Hence, you are an exception.
General Zhao.
I heard that when attacking the Jie Tribe you were there too.
Tell me some stories!
After we fight this battle,
I will take my time in telling you.
It's been peaceful all the way
What are you worried about?
The more calm it is, the more it makes me anxious.
It doesn't seem normal.
-General-What's wrong? Did you have contact with Si Ma Le yet?
All scouts say they haven't seen him.
And that he still is not at his designated place.
and hasn't sent anyone to contact us.
We've also lost contact with the other Generals.
They haven't arrived as planned.
Send a party to check again.
And remember don't let the news of Si Ma Le leak.
Also, add more to the watch .
Yes sirGo quickly.
Even though I can recite the art of war,
but theory is still theory and not real.
Moreover, looking at the situation now,
The collaborating troop suddenly disappears without cause.
And we don't even know where are back up troops are.
This war has just begun,but we are already in a mess.
We're are a complete disadvantage.
So how?
It must be tiring being with us the whole day.
How can I not be tired?
My legs and back isn't mine anymore.
I was doing fine and you forced me to be a soldier.
This is the consequence of leaving Jian An city.
That's called, "You asked for it"
Self cause?
You are really domineering
Whatever you say is possible.
Now you know earning money isn't easy.
In the future, you need to spend wisely.
It was you who forced me to join the army.
There can't be a cent missing from my pay.
AlrightThen from now on my money is yours
and your money, is still yours.
I'm just afraid that I'll have money but no life to spend it.
The situation has changed too suddenlyHave you thought of anything?
You're not worried?
Don't think too much, aren't you tired?
Go back and rest.
General, the troop is ready.
General. There are still no news about General Si Ma Li and General Li Da.
The last time, General Li Da got lost in the desert battlefield
To prevent him from getting lost another time,
the emperor specially arranged for Zhang Xu, who is familiar with the area, to be there with him
I didn't think that this time,
General Si Ma Lie who followed Uncle for so many years is also lost
General, what about us? What do we do?
Lead the soldiers ahead towards He Li Shan.Yes!
He Li Shan's scenery is beautiful
It is Jie's tribe's important farmland
and a mountain they are proud of.
This battle won't be easy.
At first, the plan was not to fight with the Hu army
But it looks like this time, we have to fight the Hu soldiers again
Invade the Gu army.
Okay. In any case, this is also not the first time for you.
The first time in the battlefield, you bring 800 men
If we win this battle,
the Emperor will be even happier.
Of course.
Why are we going back?
Looking at the direction, it is correct.
But in this area, it looks the same everywhere
I can't see any difference. Perhaps, the General has plans
Does he know we're on our way back?
He's not confused right?
Halt
General, we-
The Jie tribe knows where we are.
I intentionally made a detour to avoid the Jie tribe's spies
Just in case they are behind us
If we let them know where we are going
Then they can make plans in advance
And our men may fall into their ambush
These two rascals.
exposed our whereabouts
You're saying these two vulturesare the clan's spies?
You can't not believe so.
These creatures are the most annoying.
When my wolf brother and I caught our prey
They were circling around in the sky.
Ready anytime to come down to snatch.
Because they can fly, there was nothing we could do.
Since we have already encountered such a situation,
originally, we were supposed to beat the Jie tribe but they are chasing us now.
Strange, these two rascals
are not looking for food,
but continues to fly past us.
Your hunch may be correct
Then, what you mean is, the Jie tribe reared a few of these rascals to be spies
These rascals live in places where few people go
It is very difficult to catch their offspring
They live a lone existence, and like their freedom
If not raised from young,
they probably wouldn't obey a command even if it meant death.
Jie clan having two is already good enough
What you mean is, the Jie clan only has two?
If it is so easy to rear them, then it won't become a legend
And the last time, the Jie tribe won't have unknowingly
let your 800 men infiltrate their land
That's simple to solve,
I'll shoot them down now for dinner tonight!
Brother Xing,
General, these two birds keep circling around the sky
If they don't fly down, it will be very difficult to shoot them. They won't fly down here. It is hard for us to shoot them down
They are both trained with speed
We need to have patience
Little teacher, let's go horse riding.
Brother Xin, I don't want to miss the arrow shooting
Okay, wait here then.
I didn't know I don't have that much patience as Wei Wu Ji.
The him on the battlefield
and the usual free spirited him, are two completely different people
Great!
I am incapable - please punish me.
Brother Xing, what is wrong with the General?
This is really troublesome.
After getting shot at, these 2 birds
will be more alert
And they are not as playful as the wild birds
Now that the bird is frightened
They will not give us another chance to shoot at them.
Alright, stop watchingGo back and rest.
Brother Xing,
The army needs waterare there any bodies of water nearby?
The nearest water is at the West Sea.
But that is in the Jie tribe's territory
Okay, let's go to the West Sea then.
Zhao Meng Shan, Chen Ye Guang
General
Split into 3 groups, head towards the West Sea
Yes sirGo.
You want to get the enemy's attention?
Those who are going to come, will still comeWe can't avoid it.
You think I'll be afraid?
How could you be afraid?
What I'm afraid of...is only you.
Let's go!
General, the Jie tribe must know now that we are going to the West Sea
Looks like we can't escape from this battle.
Let's fight then. We are not afraid of fighting.
But if the Jie tribe knows our whereabouts beforehand, that is a disadvantage for us
I have a way to shoot these vultures down.
General, luring with pigeons will work for sure.
Even if something goes wrong
Sacrificing two pigeons will put us at an advantage
Then, when we get back, General Mo and Brother Xin can get some good pigeons
To compensate Brother Xin
Wishful thinking!
Xiao Xing, Xiao Tao, Don't worry
As long as I'm here, I won't let anybody touch you.
I won't give them to you.
Don't worry, I will never do things that way.
and will definitely not allow anybody to do so as well.
These two pigeons were a gift from Jiu Ye
It is very important to you
I understand
and I will respect that.
I don't require you to forget about your past.
I just want to walk down the future with you
Liking a person means being with her
Loving someone requires accepting.
I will be with you to protect that beautiful past
Trust me
That bird is above us now
I will take care of matters in the army
Don't worry.
We already don't have any solution.
They're not but two pigeons
Unless two pigeons are more important than human lives.
Don't tell me our whole army must be exterminated
What else is there to consider, when its life and death?
General Zhao, if Brother Xin is not willing, then there is nothing we can do
Unless you want us to steal them
Even if we took them
Those two pigeons will not listen to us.
Then let's just wait for death together
General
I know what you want to say
Its only a pigeon
I don't believe that with our army's strength, we can't fight head on with the Jie tribe
General, the army is at stake
Continue on the way.
HaltWe will rest at this place
Do not leave this area
Come here...thank you
Here
Stop being angry
Didn't the General reject our bad idea?
I heard from my father, that you are very familiarwith the deserts.
You lived in the desert for so many years
There must be a lot of memories.
Where is Li Cheng?
This rascal. When he heard that we were going to fight the Jie tribe, he was very happy.
He kept talking about it.
I'm worried about him.
Later, can he stay by my side?
Of course that is okay
In the battlefield, life and death is the will of heaven
The brothers we were drinking with just yesterday
May fall at your feet today
Will the General be safe?
There is no guaranteed safety on the battlefield.
Don't worry. The General has been fighting with the Jie tribe since he was young
And with General Wan teaching him
He has the experience. Nothing will happen.
Kill kill kill
Charge!
Mister Xing, Come with me quickly!
Brother Xing! I avenged!
I avenged my family, I succeeded!
I fought the Jie Clan off!
I avenged! I succeeded!
I succeeded Be careful!!!
Li Cheng
Am I going to die?
No no
Don't feel bad
I'm really happy
I've avenged my family
I really miss them
I'm sorry
This is all my fault
this is my faulty fault
What is the result of the surprise attack on the Southern army?
We surrounded the Southern army from both roads, but they resisted strongly
At last, we suffered heavy losses
Did we always know our enemy's movements?
Although one bird out of two was shot down, but there is still one left. How could we have lost?
I am incapable, I am incapable.
Who is the Southern army's leader?
It's Wei Wu Ji.
It's him again
So it is that general who brought 800 men to infiltrate our land the last time?
Yes, that's him!
He is the Southern army's top general
Select the finest troops
and intercept Wei Wu Ji
Your Majesty, please reconsider
If you do this, you will let the Southern army run free
To attack one Wei Wu Ji. Is it worth it?
No. We fought the Southern army for many years
It's only this Wei Wu Ji who 's not that easy.
We cannot keep him alive
Or we will be in deep trouble
