Huai Yao, a modern hiking enthusiast, loses her footing one day and tumbles down a mountain, only to transmigrate to ancient times.
She thinks this is a chance to start over. Finding an exam admission ticket beside her, she prepares to live a new life, exploring the mountains and rivers of the ancient world.
But as she presses on, danger lurks at every turn. A steady stream of assassins, a mysterious stranger, and a childhood friend who suddenly appears keep drawing her into one strange incident after another.
Huai Yao cannot stay out of it. She has no choice but to enter the game.
Only later does she discover that she was a pawn in the game all along. Whether she wants to or not, there is no escaping it.
P.S. I'm a devoted fan of angsty, melodramatic ancient Chinese novels and old-school web fiction. If that's not your thing, read at your own risk.
