Modern young man Jiang Chenyue accidentally traveled through time, and his soul returned to the Chongzhen period in the late Ming Dynasty. He became Hong Zeshan, an Orion boy in Hongjia Village, Funing. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was no longer in its prime. All the troubles that had been laid since the late Wanli period broke out. There were endless factional disputes in the court, the frontier army was short of food and pay, the natural disasters of the Little Ice Age swept the north and the south, drought and famine in northern Shaanxi caused rebellions.
He originally thought that this life would be just a struggle to survive in the wars and natural disasters of the late Ming Dynasty, and it was enough to protect the stability of a village. However, he did not expect that a shadow more terrifying than the iron cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty and famine was quietly spreading - corpse disasters occurred in Fujian and Guangdong, Jianghuai was poisoned, and the living corpses that would not stop dying and devoured people had traveled thousands of miles to Funing in the north. When the refugees from Shandong brought clues of the corpse disaster, and when the children around him turned into the first living corpse, Hong Zeshan realized that this troubled world was far more desperate than he imagined.
On the one hand, the Hou Jin cavalry are eyeing the enemy, and the frontier army is facing an insurmountable dilemma of lack of pay; on the other hand, there are years of severe drought during the Little Ice Age, and chaos abounds in the displacement of hungry people; there is also the scourge of living corpses that is approaching and spreading, pushing humanity and survival to a desperate situation. There is no golden finger, no luck, only martial arts, a lonely courage, and the modern cognition that comes from time-travel.
But in these troubled times at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the corpse disaster is getting worse and the country is about to collapse. How can he withstand the danger of overthrowing the world with just the strength of one person and one village?
