Drunk Together Beneath Mountains and Rivers: A New Water Margin

[Two Male Leads + Modern-to-Ancient Transmigration + Political Intrigue + Martial World + Water Margin Spin-Off]

Su Yan accidentally falls into the world of Water Margin and becomes the strangest “spy” on the streets of Bianjing. When he discovers that Lin Chong has yet to suffer the White Tiger Hall incident, and Gao Yanei's whip still hangs over the head of the instructor of the Imperial Guards, a wild idea begins to take root in his mind

He will make sure the mountain god temple never again runs red with blood on that snowy night, and that the banner before Loyalty Hall never falls. More than that, he will see to it that the hands accustomed to wielding an eight-foot snake spear never have to spill blood again.

But the gears of history mesh more tightly than he expected:

Sun Erniang mistakes modern sunscreen for poison.

Wu Yong scoffs at his democratic proposal as “the foolish talk of a bookworm.”

When he finally grasps Lin Chong's spear shaft, worn smooth and marked with tooth marks, he discovers that the Big Dipper birthmark on the back of Lin Chong's neck fits perfectly with the red mark beneath his own collarbone...

In this wager against fate, Su Yan holds a brush in his left hand, rewriting the “Oath to Uphold Justice in Heaven's Name” in the Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness, while his right hand traces the old scars beneath Lin Chong's armor.

When the imperial decree offering amnesty and the Jurchen cavalry bear down on them at the same time, he tears up the history books and gallops away with a fierce cry:

“Who says history can't have a third version?”

This is no simple danmei retelling of Water Margin. It is a romantic, violent bid to break free.

When Su Yan teaches Lin Chong to use “probability theory” to unravel the court's ten-sided ambush, and Lin Chong carves the words “No Regrets” into the amnesty decree, the souls erased by history, stifled by Confucian morals, and crushed by fate will finally reclaim their names amid ink and fire.
