Li Yi is an ordinary IT engineer. His biggest hobby is watching funny videos and decompressing them. One day, he downloaded a mysterious software called "Quchuan", intending to take a look at it, but accidentally triggered a bizarre time travel. After being sucked into the vortex in the computer screen, he unexpectedly came to the ancient palace and was mistaken for a "mysterious messenger" from the future.
In order to save his life, Li Yi had to use his wit and humor and began to brag in front of the emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. He made up various modern "black technologies", from mobile phones to the Internet to self-heating hotpots, and fooled the emperor into being interested in the "future" world, and even planned to let Li Yi show these "miracles".
However, this is just the beginning of Li Yi's wonderful adventure. In addition to having to fight for power in the power struggles of ancient dynasties, he also discovered that this computer could not only take him to ancient times, but also take him through different time and space. As a result, he and the emperor embarked on a hilarious adventure across time and space around the world: from ancient Egypt to the Industrial Revolution, from modern cities to future technology, every time and space is full of incredible challenges and jokes.
