In the war-torn Central Plains, Li Doudou was originally a scholar in the market, but when the war swept across his homeland, he fled with the rough deserter Wang Dazhuang, the clever refugee Zhao Xiaoman, and the cunning liar Su Guaizi, and became involved in the dispute between the local power Bai Erye and the power schemes of the troubled times. Between redemption and struggle, the three of them relied on humor and wisdom to frequently avoid dangers, gradually uncovering the secrets of their own lives, and making choices between power and survival. In the end, after experiencing adventure, betrayal, and growth, Li Doudou and his party joined forces to expose Erye Bai's conspiracy, and witnessed with laughter and tears the counterattack and rise of the little people in troubled times.
