Synopsis

Adventure + group portrait + unlimited streaming + micro comedy + no cp + Chinese Cthulhu Fourteen-year-old orphan Wang Laihe signed up to join the army in order to have enough to eat. He thought that being a soldier meant carrying a gun and fighting, but the first time he crossed the river, the boat capsized under the bloody moon. Pale hands stretched out from the bottom of the water, grabbed his wrist and pulled him down. That was the first time Wang Laihe knew that besides artillery fire, there was another world on the battlefield. In a bombed-out village, the door panel of a ruined temple was covered with slender bloody handprints. The temple housed a spirit wearing a huge official hat and could only stand by leaning on pillars. In an abandoned house in the mountains, on a full-moon night, a woman in a red wedding dress sings alone at a wedding surrounded by paper figures. Her singing can bring back the saddest memories in everyone's heart. From the ghosts at the bottom of the river to the ruined temples in deserted villages, from the paper man siege of the house to the one-legged ghost, twelve strange and bizarre experiences are waiting for the youngest soldier in the cooking class. Around him are the irascible Northeast squad leader, the silent Shaanbei cook, the heart-warming Sichuan opera boy, the short soldier from Yanbian who can speak Korean, and a hungry little boy who can only say "hungry" and "eat". When people around him began to disappear one after another, Wang Laihe gradually discovered that the real terror was not those wild monsters, but the obsession that everyone could not let go of. From the reckless boy who couldn't tell the difference between left and right, to a warrior who shouldered responsibilities and faced his fears. Many years later, Wang Laihe stood by the river. He knew that some battles were over, while some protections had just begun.
