Episode 3 recap: Ye Liu Xi and the other two set off for Yumen Pass.
Ye Liu Xi and Chang Dong gathered together, and Chang Dong expressed that Ye Liu Xi's car was not suitable for driving into the desert, but Ye Liu Xi didn't listen. Ye Liu Xi and Chang Dong drove, competing with each other, both trying to surpass the other. Ye Liu Xi mentioned that she and Chang Dong were not the same when it came to expenses and accommodation, and they didn't need to consider her share. During breaks, Ye Liu Xi ate steamed buns with pickled vegetables in the car. Fei Tang found it strange and didn't understand why Ye Liu Xi was so frugal with her food. Fei Tang brought a plate of meat for Ye Liu Xi, but she refused it. Chang Dong remarked that Ye Liu Xi was both poor and arrogant.
When they reached the rest area, Fei Tang's off-road vehicle also arrived. Ye Liu Xi put on a military coat and left. Chang Dong followed and discovered that Ye Liu Xi had gone to a shop to apply for a job as a meat chopper. Ye Liu Xi looked at Chang Dong and mentioned that she had given all her money to him, so she naturally had to take on part-time work to earn money. She believed it was more satisfying to use her own money. Chang Dong suggested that Ye Liu Xi should take a shower because she had an odor. When Ye Liu Xi returned, she went to the bathhouse to take a shower.While Ye Liu Xi was away, Fei Tang took the opportunity to secretly search Ye Liu Xi's car but didn't find the yellow goat with the animal head. It seemed that Ye Liu Xi had taken it with her. Chang Dong went to the store to buy equipment, and someone recognized him, bringing up the incident where he had caused the deaths of over a dozen people. They were surprised that Chang Dong still dared to guide others and that there were fools who would seek him out as a guide.Ye Liu Xi came over and smashed the phones of the two people who were secretly taking pictures, declaring herself as that fool. Sensing that Ye Liu Xi was not someone to mess with, they quickly ran away. Ye Liu Xi asked Fei Tang to remind Chang Dong not to come out for dinner because trouble would surely come looking for him. However, Chang Dong didn't listen and still came out to eat. Ye Liu Xi saw Chang Dong and asked if he needed to pay her 500 yuan to hire her to fight for him, but Chang Dong declined.
While they were halfway through their meal, a group of people came over to confront Chang Dong, complaining that their grandson, who was only five or six years old, kept asking where his parents were. They asked Chang Dong how they should explain the situation to the child. Chang Dong called for Ye Liu Xi and expressed his desire to avoid trouble and physical confrontation, asking her to handle it for him. Ye Liu Xi demanded 800 yuan for her assistance, and Chang Dong agreed.
Ye Liu Xi instructed them to go outside and find an open space to fight. In no time, they managed to subdue two or three individuals, which made the rest of the group hesitant to engage. Chang Dong stated that this time he would bring those people back and give them another chance. The group agreed to trust Chang Dong once more and left. Chang Dong gave Ye Liu Xi 1000 yuan, but she returned 200 yuan, insisting on sticking to the agreed-upon amount.Ye Liu Xi had been living in her car all along. Chang Dong noticed her cooking spare ribs in a small pot downstairs and asked for two bowls, offering 100 yuan per bowl. Ye Liu Xi happily complied. Chang Dong led Ye Liu Xi and the others to buy tickets and enter Yumen Pass, where many people were enjoying themselves. Ye Liu Xi didn't find anything remarkable about the place, but Chang Dong remarked that Yumen Pass had been buried and had turned into sand. Ye Liu Xi speculated that these sands might blow into the sky and reshape into Yumen Pass again.Fei Tang wanted to stop and take some photos, but Chang Dong was focused on driving ahead. In the evening, they camped together with other campers, but Chang Dong drove away. The others brought up the topic of black camellia, mentioning how it was Chang Dong's insistence to go to E Tou Sha Po Zi, while everyone else was unwilling, so it became Chang Dong's fault. Ling Dui pointed out that it was a safe place in the desert where sandstorms rarely occurred, and it wasn't really Chang Dong's fault, but rather his misfortune.Ye Liu Xi chased after Chang Dong in her car and involuntarily hummed a song along the way, singing, "Yumen Pass, Ghost Pass, one step out and blood runs dry." Ye Liu Xi found it strange and immediately stopped to write down those words.
