In the tribute courtyard of the Tang Dynasty, Shen Yan, a scholar from a poor family, coughed up blood and collapsed at the scientific examination site.
He was born into a poor family and was the youngest son in his family. He had been frail and sick since childhood and could not go to the fields or work. He was despised by his family and ridiculed by his neighbors. Everyone said he was a waste, but only he believed that studying was the only way he could change his life.
But at the most critical moment of the scientific examination, he died in the examination room.
When he opened his eyes again, he traveled through a thousand years and came to the modern high school sophomore classroom, possessing a young man also named Shen Yan.
Shen Yan's family sells pork, and his parents are busy making a living and have no time to care about him; he is weak, has poor grades, is laughed at in the class, and is ignored at home.
A poor scholar who died in the Tang Dynasty's scientific examination, and a sickly young man trapped in the modern college entrance examination.
Two destinies overlap in the same body.
Faced with unfamiliar modern knowledge, indifferent classmates, a silent and oppressive family, and the upcoming college entrance examination, Shen Yan has no way out.
Thousands of years ago, he failed to finish writing that scientific examination paper.
Thousands of years later, he will take the test for his life again in the modern examination room.
