In the last years of the Dasheng Dynasty, extreme cold, severe drought, plague, and locust plagues came one after another. The imperial power collapsed and the world was in chaos. Shen Li (the female protagonist), the young dart of the Weiyuan Escort Bureau, was keenly aware of the crisis before the troubled times began. With his extraordinary martial arts and survival wisdom, he took on the last dangerous "human escort" - escorting the 9,000-year-old Pei Jin (the male protagonist), who was in power but became a prisoner, to go south.
The two fought their way out of the capital, facing riots by hungry people, warlord separatism, and extreme weather tests along the way. Shen Li is not a holy mother, not blindly good, believes that "survival is the last word", and relies on a horizontal knife to intimidate everyone; Pei Jin strategizes and uses people's hearts as his tactic. On the road to escape, the two frantically harvested the supplies of corrupt officials, built a fortress, and finally rebuilt the world on the ruins of the old dynasty.
