A modern man wakes up in the wilderness.
He didn't know why he came here. He only knew that from this day on, he would live for a long time - long enough to see the rise and fall of dynasties, long enough to send away everyone he knew.
He has been a farmer, a soldier, a hawker, a palace maid, a businessman, an official, a refugee... And has survived the wars of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the prosperous times of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the chaos of the Five Dynasties, the prosperity and humiliation of the Song Dynasty, and the changes of the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
He had seen Yang Jian's appearance when he was four years old, Wu Zetian's profile when she entered the palace, the beacon fire on the day An Lushan raised troops, the tears moving north during the Jingkang Incident, and the people under the tower in 1949.
This is not historical fiction - history is just background. This is a book about "people". You will get to know Wang Laoer, Widow Liu, Zhu Da, Xiao Wang... Just like you know your own neighbors. Then watch them die, and then watch him wake up in another body.
After more than fifty lives, you will understand: I am the emperor, general and minister, I am the trafficker and pawn, I am the man, I am the woman, I am the one who is alive, and I am the one who is dead.
Because I know you—I am you.
