In the late autumn of 1820, due to an accident, four modern young people traveled from 2025 to the eve of the crisis in the last years of Jiaqing. Unarmed, they relied on their advanced historical vision, military literacy, engineering knowledge and bottom-level wisdom to survive in hunger, pursuit and troubled times.
From the Jinmen massacre to the gold hunt in Yangzhou, from the hidden cabins of the tankers to the dangerous frontier areas, they mediate between the decadent empire, the murderous gangs and the shadows of the great powers. Buried in the flames of science and technology, created a small foundation, and pried open a crack in the iron curtain of history.
This is not a simple imperial strategy, but an extreme experiment about the survival of civilization: when four sparks from the future fall into the dry old mountains and rivers, will they extinguish quietly, or will they start a prairie fire for thousands of miles?
See how they used a book called "Tiangong Kaiwu" and half of modern history to ignite another future for China before the artillery fire of the Opium War was ignited. The new Chinese era begins in the darkest place, with the first trembling flame.

There is no way to make the protagonist invincible through time travel, but he is living on thin ice and growing slowly.
