Zhang Chen is an ordinary modern-day homebody. One day, while reading Records of the Three Kingdoms at home, he suddenly tumbles into the Three Kingdoms era and finds himself in Cao Cao's camp. With nothing on him and no idea what has happened, he can only rely on what he knows about Three Kingdoms history to start “spoiling” future events. To his surprise, he catches Cao Cao's attention. Just to earn his keep, he becomes a “prophet” in Cao Cao's camp, carefully avoiding being mistaken for a spy while using his historical knowledge to gain a few small advantages.
But as time goes by, Zhang Chen realizes that his “spoilers” have not only earned Cao Cao's trust, they have also thrust him into the whirlpool of history. He is constantly dodging unexpected events, clashing with all kinds of major figures from the Three Kingdoms, and getting tossed about by the rules of history until he has no idea what to do. The whole thing is absurd and hilarious. Can Zhang Chen use his modern knowledge to thrive in the Three Kingdoms, or will history ultimately correct itself? The story is full of lighthearted, humorous adventures and surprises.
