On the eve of the Battle of Guandu, Cao Xun, the most mysterious "Heavenly Official" under Cao Cao, was ordered to rob an ancient dragon vein tomb that was a matter of life and death.
The mechanism in the tomb triggered the turbulence of time and space and drew him into endless darkness. When he woke up again, he was already in two thousand years later - a strange world where lights were like daylight and iron birds soared. At his feet was the same ancient tomb that was being excavated.
Relying on the unique skills of analyzing gold and fixing acupuncture points, and the skills honed in the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty, he proved his innocence, but he wanted to understand more: Why am I here? How to go back?
A female professor from the Department of Archeology became his guide in modern times. And a multinational group that used high technology to rob ancient tombs crazily also focused on him - because only he can unlock the secret of the ultimate ancient tomb.
What is even more shocking is that Cao Xun discovered that the general Faqiu Zhonglang who had been separated from him not only survived, but also founded a family that guarded the secrets of the ancient tomb for generations. Meeting after a thousand years, will they be enemies or friends?
As the truth is revealed step by step, a shocking layout spanning two thousand years emerges.
Should he return to the late Han Dynasty and continue to be loyal to the "treacherous hero in troubled times"?
Or should we stay in modern times, practice the moral principle of "touch gold but never destroy bones", and protect the veins of Chinese civilization?
All decisions will be made when the ultimate tomb is opened.
