In troubled times, wars are going on, and the people are in all kinds of moods. Medical doctor Li Yunshu originally just wanted to live an ignoble life, but he was involved in the collapse of the dynasty and the warlord separatism. By chance, he got acquainted with the vengeful orphan Qin Liuyue, the funny brother Wang Dabao and the mysterious female thief Su Xinyi. During their turbulent journey, they faced absurdity and cruelty together, witnessed friendship and betrayal, and performed scenes of hilarious and passionate legends of troubled times in the midst of numerous conspiracies and the treacherous whirlpool of power. The three volumes describe the rise of the common people - the struggle in the rivers and lakes - and the return of the world. Each volume is self-contained and echoes each other, and finally ends successfully in laughter and tears.
