In 317 BC, Bai Qi, a young man from Yiyi at the foot of Qishan Mountain, heard the legend of the "Tiger and Wolf Master" for the first time on the loess slope covered with mountain-shaped maps. He didn't know that he would become the coldest light in the legend. "Bai Qi" is based on historical materials such as "Historical Records" and "Warring States Policy" and uses literary imagination as its wings. It panoramically reproduces the life of this famous Warring States general from a boy in Yiyi to the "human massacre" god of war.
He entered Xianyang at the age of fifteen and joined the army in Lantian at the age of seventeen. He lost his best friend Wuju in a bloody battle in the border market and single-handedly saved the King of Qin from the tusks of a wild boar during the autumn hunt in Lantian. At the age of twenty-one, he was ordered to face danger. He used an army of 100,000 to defeat the 140,000 allied forces of Han, Wei and Dong in Yique on Tuesday. He became a god in one battle and shocked the world. After that, he attacked the city of Wei, attacked Chu and burned Ying, and flooded the city of Yan. In the first battle of Changping, he killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers and was granted the title of Lord of Wu'an. In the end, due to the suspicion of the emperor and his ministers, he drank his sword and committed suicide outside Du You Pavilion.

It was the wild nature that he had never tamed in his life, and it was also his destiny that he would never look back until his death.
Based on strict research on historical facts, the work focuses on depicting the thirty-six-year monarch-minister game between Bai Qi and King Zhaoxiang of Qin, his friendship with Sima Jin and Sima Geng as classmates, and the righteousness of his robe with his black husband. Through his father's last words of "how many people you kill, you will have to bear as many lives", it deeply explores the struggle of human nature under the dual labels of "God of War" and "Slaughter of Humans". Two hundred and forty thousand, four hundred thousand... Behind these cold numbers,
