In the last years of the Yong Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and the boundaries between rivers and lakes and temples could no longer be distinguished. After Shen Mengchuan was originally a famous general, he was exiled due to the execution of his family. He used mockery of life and death and absurd humor as weapons to travel around the world. In the midst of the foggy conspiracy and bloody power game, Meng Chuan formed sworn friendships with the scholar Lu Jinyu, the mysterious assassin Yan Wuxue, and the clever and unpredictable Zhao Yuran, and was forced to get involved in the three-way interaction between princes, generals, heroes, and underground forces. The story runs on multiple lines, including life and death in absurd black humor, and growth and transformation under the watchful eye of warmth. In the river of fate of reincarnation, everyone protects each other with self-mockery and goodwill, is not afraid of the whirlpool of power, and interprets the true meaning of human nature in which good and evil coexist. In the end, between absurdity and reality, Meng Chuan and his partners created their own legend of the times.
