In 1938, the land of Qilu was shrouded in flames of war.
Xu Yan, a clerk, accidentally traveled through time and became "Xu Yanwang", the bandit leader of Black Tiger Ridge. When he opened his eyes, he saw Scar's cronies, the second boss of the spy, and the Japanese bayonets pressing down the mountain. Without the memory of the original owner and no knowledge of firearms and swordsmanship, he relied on the cunning and conscience of modern people to fight his way out of the blood and fire——
"The King of Hell" suppressed traitors, mixed chili powder with explosives to deceive the Japanese, and even snatched Chinese and North Korean women from comfort stations to build a field hospital. When the "loyalty to serve the country" hidden in the pocket watch reveals the mystery of his life experience, and when the Eighth Route Army liaison officer comes to the door with a marriage certificate and bullets, this ordinary person who just wants to survive is finally forced to become a hero by the troubled times.
"Everyone says that bandits should be killed, but when the devils massacred the village, it was I who led the men to steal the grain!
"Go to the Eighth Route Army? Let's first ask the three thousand innocent souls at the foot of the mountain. Do you think they will be able to fight for the cause of doctrine? "
This is a rough version of "Bright Sword", which tells the story of the bloody world of survivors in troubled times: there are no great and upright heroes, only ants crushed by fate, gritting their teeth and making a glimmer of light in the desperate situation of the nation.
