A modern young man finds a piece of bluestone and accidentally transmigrates, born into the turbulent Eastern Jin dynasty.
He intends to make the best of this life, but the person closest to him betrays him, and he finds himself caught in one relentless assassination attempt after another.
From the start, he can't even get enough to eat. His circumstances are worlds apart from the kingdoms and beauties other transmigrators win.
Even more astonishing, modern household goods appear in the streets and markets of the Eastern Jin. The many strange signs suggest that he isn't the only transmigrator in this world.
To uncover who is behind the attempts on his life and discover the truth behind the world's bizarre secrets, he disguises himself as a refugee and, after enduring countless hardships, slips into Chengdu to seek out Wang Yi, who knows the truth about his origins.
In the chaotic Eastern Jin, where powerful clans carve up the realm and the political situation is treacherous, he uses his modern understanding and meticulous mind to talk his way between rival factions. Making a living through deception, he gradually unravels the mystery of transmigration and fights for a chance to survive.
