This book tells the story of a group of teenagers who were thrown into troubled times and each took a different path. The story begins on a snowy night in Gray Horse Collection. It was a place with no horses, only snow and knives. The young man Chen Liao was guarding a group of grain carts heading north. To the north were barbarians, wolves, and the lonely city Zhiguan that his mother wanted to go to until she died. He left half a bronze charm close to his mother's chest. He didn't know what it was, but he felt it was warm, as if his mother's hand was still there. He picked up Shen Yan, a scholar who was afraid of blood, on the snowy road. One is for life, the other is for eyes. The two of them, one armed and the other literary, walked into the city wall of Zhiguan together and walked into a storm that swept the Seven Kingdoms and the entire Central Plains. No one is innocent in this world. The powerful officials betrayed the country, the heroes took advantage of the chaos to claim the throne, the princes each had their own agenda, and the barbarian cavalry watched on the northern grasslands. Brotherhoods of the past will meet each other with swords and swords, and former comrades will go their separate ways. Troubled times are like a fire, burning through everyone's path, and also burning out the paths that separate. Some people want to find out the truth about their father's injustice, some people want to grab a piece of land to survive under the knife, some people don't know the secret of their blood until they die, and some people finally figure out in the sea of blood and corpses: what is the purpose of life. This is an epic about troubled times, and it is also a story about five people, five choices, and five journeys. The snow will stop and the fire will go out, but some things - such as the place a person tries his best to go to, such as the glimmer of light on half a bronze talisman - will continue to burn until the last page of this book.

It's vivid, and the text description has a strong sense of picture. Unknowingly, it has been substituted into the book, and I follow Chen Li to escort the goods.
