In the late Qing Dynasty, after the Gengzi Campaign, the Qing government lost power and humiliated the country externally, and tightened its autocratic rule internally. Due to internal and external troubles, the people are in dire straits, and social conflicts are getting worse day by day.
Leaders of the Ge Lao Hui across Sichuan actively participated in the road protection movement under the instigation of the Tongmenghui. Long Xiaotian, as a representative of the Ziliujing salt merchants, a pao brother and a member of the alliance, formed a blood alliance with Wang Changhai, the uncle of Hunshui Pao Ge, and formed a sworn alliance with Jinlan, setting off the famous Sichuan Road Protection Movement.
During the uprising, Wang Changhai defected before the battle, intending to restore power. Long Xiaotian stopped him and was brutally killed by Wang Changhai. Under the instigation of his men, Wang Changhai eradicated the roots and invaded the Long family compound in Ziliujing, leaving behind two infant children, Long Xiao and Long Tian. The two brothers accidentally took different paths in life.
Long Tian changed his name to Wang Shuai and was adopted by Wang Changhai since he was a child. He considered a thief as his father and was bohemian. He practiced martial arts at an early age and traveled all over the country. The two brothers fought over salt, hated each other because of love, and met many times but had no chance to recognize each other. They staged scenes of sad, bizarre and sad stories.
The two brothers were born from the same roots, but in the face of national hatred and family feud, they finally came to the same destination through different paths, writing national justice and becoming the pride of Zigong salt merchants.
