On the night when her lover (Maggie Cheung) married her brother angrily, Ouyang Feng (Zhang Guorong) left Mount Baituo sadly and went to a small town in the desert to become a killer intermediary. His friend Huang Yaoshi (Liang Jiahui), a flirtatious swordsman, came to the town to drink with him every year, and the news about Baituoshan in the wine conversation gradually turned his thoughts of forgetting the past into self-deception. Huang Yaoshi is only superficial and flirtatious. He is infatuated with Peach Blossom (Carina Lau), the wife of his friend "Blind Samurai" (Tony Leung), who left him forever after her husband's death, while he refuses to make good on his casual promise to Murong Yan (Lin Qingxia), a woman who is infatuated with him. This makes Murong Yan lost in her identity. Hong Qi (Zhang Xueyou) and the village girl (Yang Ceni), who formed a brief relationship with Ouyang Feng, have also had a painful past that only they know and do not want to look back on.
