A Floating Life in Troubled Times

A modern man accidentally traveled to the troubled times of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. There is no system, no cheats, no supernatural powers. His only advantage is knowing how history will develop - and this is precisely the most useless thing. Because he can't change anything. From the later Tang Dynasty when Emperor Zhuangzong destroyed Liang, to when Shi Jingtang ceded Yanyun; from when Guo Wei established the Zhou Dynasty, to when Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao rebelled; from when the ten kingdoms perished one after another, to when the Northern Song Dynasty unified the world. He witnessed the rise and fall of an era, witnessed the deaths of countless people, experienced five changes of dynasties, and lived to be one hundred and two years old. This is not a story about changing history, but a story about how people who have been crushed by history survive in the cracks. Eighty years of ups and downs in troubled times, one person's life is like a dream.
