In the first year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, outside Yanmen Pass, heavy snow closed the mountains.
Shen Wei's master, Shen Tieshan, who had guarded Yanmen for thirty years, died in battle. Before he died, he put a piece of jade into his apprentice's hand.
That piece of jade is called Shanhe Ling.
Legend has it that the nine pieces of the Mountain and River Token compiled into the Ancient Mountain and River Scroll can reveal nine treasures buried in the Song Dynasty: military books, ordnance, grain and grass, silver rates, gunpowder formulas, war horse breeding techniques, naval warship maps, espionage network lists, and the Northern Expedition route map.
Whoever gets the ancient scroll can change the situation of the Song and Jin Dynasties.
The Jin people marched on the West Road and Wanyan Zonghan of the Ten Thousand Households went after him personally, because he knew that keeping this kid alive would be a serious problem for the Jin Kingdom.
Qin Hui, the powerful prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, secretly coveted it because he wanted to dedicate the ancient scrolls to the Jin people in exchange for his own glory and wealth.
In the world, some people want to protect him, some want to kill him, and some want to take advantage of him.
Shen Wei didn't know who he could trust.
He only knows one thing:
The master has guarded the mountains and rivers for thirty years, and he must continue to guard them.
It started with a bloody battle outside Yanmen Pass and ended with the final battle at Caishijitou.
In ten years, he went from a half-grown child to the "Song Hu" ranked first on the Golden Man Bounty List.
In ten years, he found all the nine mountains and rivers one by one, and also revealed the secrets of the nine treasure houses one by one.
But in the end, he discovered that the biggest secret was not in those treasure houses——
In himself.
