When he was twelve years old, Chen Jianwei lost his village and his father. He only carried an unedged and unhilted sword embryo.
He climbed up the Qilian Mountains in the wind and snow, learned to stand firm and hold a sword in an unknown Taoist temple, and polished the piece of iron into a "caged bird" with his own hands.
Six years later, he went down the mountain with his sword, hoping only to find the group of people who had passed through the village.
But the world is in troubled times at the foot of the mountain: Hu and Han are fighting, humans and monsters are trading, monks are sitting high in the clouds, and ordinary people's lives are as light as grass. Chen Jianwei does not understand the justice of the world and does not believe in the rules of superiority.
He only believes in one truth——
A man lives three feet, and his sword guards three feet.
Within three feet, even an ordinary man should be qualified to use a sword against a strong person.
This is the story of a blacksmith's son walking into troubled times with an unfinished sword on his back, and spending his whole life asking "What else can a sword do besides killing people?"
