The story takes place in the last years of the dynasty, when wars are raging across the country, and the once peaceful civilian towns fell into turmoil overnight. Zhao Xiaoming and his friends Li Dazhuang, Sun Yulian, Wang Sanpao and Gao Laodai formed a temporary exile team and traveled around in troubled times. Facing endless war disasters, famine, separation, and life and death, they used jokes and humor to resolve their fears and relied on each other to grow. Each volume explores a major decision and dilemma, from family separation to the trials of friendship to the search for new life. In troubled times, they used laughter to resist fate, and finally understood the hope in suffering, becoming a unique legend in troubled times. The three volumes respectively explore survival, choice and rebirth, and end with a happy ending that brings joy and hardship.
