In the sixth year of Zhongping, Dong Zhuo entered the capital, causing chaos in the country, and the bitter cold land of Bingzhou became a weapons purgatory. Lin Mo, a refugee, carries the system through troubled times. He is trapped in a cold dock at the beginning, struggling to survive with his weak body - carrying rammed earth, fighting evil slaves, and grabbing food from the tiger's mouth. With a little wisdom and courage, he establishes himself among the people, and unexpectedly gets the help of Zhao Si, a rough man.
He knew very well that Wubao was not a place to stay for a long time. In troubled times, only strength and people's hearts could be relied upon. While using the system to practice martial arts and unlock survival skills such as stealth and identification, you can also secretly observe and make friends with useful people: win over the oppressed civilians, test the fringe soldiers in the fort, and pay attention to the talents hidden among the refugees.
From stealing food to avoid disaster in Hanwu, to taking advantage of the chaos to escape dangerous places with his followers; from searching for resources in the mountains and building temporary strongholds, to dealing with rogue bandits' robbery and violent oppression - Lin Mo started from "survive" and worked step by step to gather people's hearts and gain strength. He did not strive for momentary courage, nor was he greedy for immediate gains. He only relied on his obsession to "protect those around him and defend every inch of land" to twist a group of scattered refugees into a force that could stand firm in troubled times in the war-torn land of Bingzhou.
This is a story of a small man's survival and rise in the troubled times, from "a dragon lurking in the abyss" to gradually emerging, using the system as a help and the human heart as the foundation, building barriers to survival step by step, and finally finding a glimmer of hope in the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty.
