《寻找爱的冒险》 The Adventure for Love

[grawrt]

寻找爱的冒险 is about a manga writer and artist (夏梦寻) who is writing a story based on her great grandmothers old journal. One day when she wakes up from a dream she had of the past and decides to take a road trip to get some inspiration for her next chapter. She takes a solo ride by herself into the country side, because what else is a girl to do? She finds the place to her surprise exactly as her mother described, snaps some pictures and decides to check out another place when a stranger appears, startles her and she drives off with his hand still in her car. She bumps into the stranger again and he helps her find her way back to her car and returns her journal under one condition—that she give him a ride. He introduces himself as 唐潮。

 

The episode follows with a rather uncomfortable car ride, ditching him later, and then ending up on the same plane on the same mission—to purchase an item up for auction.

If you’re looking for a complex deep drama then this is not for you. If you just want something simple to watch and practice your listening I think it does a good enough job. The language was easy to follow, I never really had to stop much or look at the subtitles, and the plot is also pretty simple to follow. Things I really liked about the drama surprisingly are the gorgeous scenery shots. They get better throughout the series and I’m just really impressed. I also really enjoyed the character 唐潮 although like many males he tends to mumble his words, he’s still a fun character to watch. I also didn’t think I would like 梦寻 because she’s the type of 装可爱 type of girl and she had those ridiculous shoes in the first episode but I kind of like her.

 

Maybe someone can help me out but when the 唐潮 gets a ride out of 梦寻 he says:

不过你稍我一程呗。

 

I interpreted as “But you need to give me a ride/lift” but if you look at the characters nothing really denigrates the sentence of giving somebody a ride. Anyone???  

 

Vocabulary:

通风报信： to tip somebody off

锯子：saw

徒步：be on foot

赔罪：to apologize

拍卖会：auction

淑女：lady

抬价：to force up a commodity price

四连血月：　Blood moon (?)

 

P.S Sorry I was so late with these. I'll update more since I've already watched up until episode 6!

It should be 不过你捎我一程呗。

 

"你能捎我一程吗?”用英语怎么说?

I’m glad I could be of help.

 

I looked up the meaning of 四连血月：　Blood moon (?) and apparently it has something to do with the "lunar tetrad" according to the following link :  http://www.guokr.com/question/552322/

血月又叫月全食，一年会出现一两次，但连环四月食就非常罕见，2年内连续4个月都出现月全食的纪录，500年来只有三次，而第四次就在今年的4月15日、10月8日，2015年的4月4日和9月28日。
...... 
首先，连环四月食（lunar tetrad）不是连续4个月的月食，而是4次月食都是全食，两次相邻6个月，中间没有夹着偏食。

 

It is quite interesting upon reading on  What is a Blood Moon?

and learning something new about full-moon-names.

Perhaps the terminology 四连血月 refers to Blood Moon Prophecy?

On April 15, 2014, there was a total lunar eclipse which was the first of four consecutive total eclipses in a series, known as a tetrad; a second one took place on October 8, 2014, the third one on April 4, 2015 and the remaining one took place on September 27, 2015. It is one of eight tetrads to take place during the 21st century AD.
