No, we'll have two bowls of plain noodles

Nothing else

That's it

Alright...

Plain noodles coming right up

Tell the kitchen: two plain noodles

Two bowls of "nun noodles"

Excuse me

Vegi may not be vegi

There's a house rule here

Returning customers use their own chopsticks

New customers use the inn's chopsticks

lt's the rule at a 'black inn'

'Black inn'?

What's a 'black inn'?

See?

There've been many fights here

They can't wash out all the blood stains

lnnkeeper!

Sir, what's wrong?

Who do you think we are?

You give us white meat?

White meat?

You know the rules!

You think we're new here?

A big mistake!

Ah Dong, change the meat

l'm coming...

What is white meat?

Why are they are so angry?

New customers get white meat

What is it?

Human Flesh

lt's from people who used the inn's chopsticks

Coming through...

Two bowls of...

... "nun noodles"

Sorry, sorry...

Get back to the kitchen!

You clumsy oaf!

Master Lu Bu...

Please wash your hands, refresh yourself

Have you seen...

... an unfamiliar woman in the past ten days?

Unfamiliar... Can't say l have

The fact is...

A brother of mine bought

a woman in the capital

He was about to marry her when she ran off

My buddies here...

l shouldn't say buddies...

My brothers here...

They're helping me to track down the b*tch

So if you've seen her recently

My lady boss says...

You bastards are forcing women to be whores

You exploit women and call them b*tches?

Hard to believe!

Guests, denizens ofjianghu

often clash in here

lt's normal

You are here often...

So are Master Lu Bu...

... and his friends here

We all get along...

And you're not from the capital

You can't hold any grudges against each other

lt's my fault, l'm a poor host

Have some wine on the house

Give me some face, please?

Damn you!

She did that to test my skill

Next time, l won't let her off so lightly

Listen...

Stop taking in guests for the next two weeks

We will rent the whole inn

But that's impossible, sir!

There's a huge sandstorm on the way

Even we have to shelter at the courier station

lt's too dangerous to stay here, you'll die

A huge sandstorm?

The Dragon Gate black sandstorm is terrifying

lt will bury a large area in sand

lt might even blow the inn away, who knows?

Just take the money

l'll decide if l leave or not

l can't take it

Also, l don't dare offend...

... our other party of guests

So you dare offend us?

You're talking nonsense

Sir...

We really can't accept this money

You can't take the whole inn

if they don't leave

l really don't know how to drive them out

Don't worry, innkeeper

lf the sandstorm doesn't scare them...

Their lives are cheap

l'll send them to hell early

Again?

Bastard, are you that hungry?

l'm not hungry

Of course you aren't

Not after helping yourself

to a whole leg of lamb!

You're always stealing food

lt's safe to eat

lf it were human flesh,

they wouldn't argue over it

What?

We just work here, sir!

The innkeeper holds all the money

Please spare us, spare us...

We small fry can't decide anything

You have to talk to...

What is it?

What will it do in the wine?

Dragon Gate lnn turned "black" three years ago

The woman owner ran away to escape arrest

Do you also oppose the lmperial Court?

That had nothing to do with us

We'd never dare oppose the lmperial Court

Then do what l tell you

l will, l will

Put this in the wine

and serve it to the Tartars

lt will kill them

l dare not do that

Sir... Sir!

Great knight, may l ask you something?

lt depends what it is

How do you know this place so well?

Have you been here many times?

Are you...

Watch what you say

What do you want to ask?

Are you the woman who fled three years ago?

lf l were that woman owner...

The staff would have recognized me

lsn't that so?

Yes, got it

They're here

l found this outside the kitchen

Deputy Chief, the sky looks strange

l think a black sandstorm is really coming

To be safe, we need a contingency plan

His Highness

may have reached the courier station

Tell Lidong to guard the stables

lf the need arises...

Keep our horses and set the others free

Yes, sir!

Jinliang, this place is named Dragon Gate...

... after the inscription on two steles

Yes, Your Highness

That's the local legend

Follow each other closely

The caravan ahead, did anybody get strayed?

Open up the barracks! Let them shelter!

Yes!

Riders on the east, this way!

Your Highness,

everyone's coming here for shelter

This place will soon be full

Please order them to stop letting people in

Let them all in

Yes, sir

Your Highness, will Zhao Huai'an come here?

He's a foolhardy man

l can anticipate his every move

Don't make it hard for him to enter

Since l'm here, l'm sure he will come

Sir... Sir!

Deputy Chief, we have searched everywhere

No trace of them

l have men still searching

What is it?

What happened?

Poisoned

How come?

(Tartar)

What did you say?

My boss says, ask your mother how to poison

You can't fool anybody

with these little tricks

You poisoned yourselves by mistake!

Draw your swords!

lnnkeeper!

We're too late to cross the border

We need shelter

Your flag's still flying

Why is the door closed?

We're full, go away!

Nonsense!

There's a sandstorm out there!

We can sit on the ceiling even if you're full

Open the door!

Gangzi, you go!

l don't want to yell from the outside

l'll tell him to leave...

The wind is getting stronger!

Anyone alive inside?

Sir, it's a blessing in disguise

You're lucky that we're full!

Lucky? You buffoon!

You are asking for trouble

You've drawn swords...

... but pretend to be peaceful?

Where are you from?

We're here already. Would anybody speak to us?

Why would His Highness come here?

Maybe he's a look-alike

He might not be His Highness

Let's find out

My great knights...

You can see that we're full

We really have no room for you

For shelter from the sandstorm,

the best thing...

... would be to go to the courier station

lt's much safer, a solid building

And it has plenty of space

(Tartar)

No need to go

Our boss will let the gentleman have her room

One room, that's ridiculous

lf you don't mind...

l can spare two fine rooms for you

(Tartar)

May l invite the gentleman to a drink?

A flash of sword, a taste of wine

We have vintage amber wine here

Something to savor

Awine for real connoisseurs

Please honor me by accepting

Fine, we accept

See if His Highness is at the courier station

Good sir, do you pass this way often?

You want to know about us?

lf it's a rule ofjianghu...

... to make inquiries...

Maybe you tell me why you drew swords?

l am talking to this gentleman

lt's none of your business

But l am also talking to you now

Why it isn't my business?

l see, what you really want...

... is to know why l'm here

Right?

No need to answer now

Sir, on your way here...

Was this lady knight your only companion?

Are you by any chance bandits?

Are you assessing us before robbing?
