Li Jingjing, a 25-year-old graduate student in archeology, accidentally triggered a mysterious mechanism while participating in the excavation of an ancient tomb from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and traveled to this era of frequent wars. She thought it was just a bizarre dream, but the reality cruelly told her that the way home was out of reach.
Li Jingjing, who had just arrived in ancient times, was frightened and helpless when faced with a strange environment and language. With the help of modern knowledge, she tried to make simple batteries and signal devices, trying to find a way to communicate with the modern world, but she failed again and again. She asked the local wise men and Taoist priests for help, but all she got was confused looks, shaking heads and sighs.
In the predicament, Li Jingjing began to work hard to adapt to ancient life. She learned how to ride a horse and archery to protect herself in troubled times; she also made some like-minded friends to jointly search for clues to return home. However, every time she thought she had found hope, fate would ruthlessly crush it.
As the days passed, Li Jingjing gradually understood that maybe she would never go back. But she did not give up. In this strange land, she was determined to use her own power to bring a different color to this era, even if it meant saying goodbye to everything she was familiar with forever...
