Record of the Solitary Sword of Desolate Ashes

During the Xiaochang period of the Northern Wei Dynasty, war broke out in six towns, and the whole country was displaced. Xiao Yancang's home was destroyed, and he learned peerless swordsmanship in the ancient cave of Cangming Mountain. He went down the mountain with one sword and saw the suffering of the world in troubled times. Bandits are rampant in the rivers and lakes, the court is decaying, Empress Dowager Hu is in chaos, powerful ministers are separatist, and rebels are sweeping across the northwest. He walks through troubled times with one man and one sword, and encounters the righteous deserter Lu Gui, the benevolent doctor Su Qingyuan, and the cold-eyed scholar Wen Zisheng. The knight can kill the murderers, but he cannot kill all the evil in the world. When the blade faces the temple, and the lone hero stands under the golden sword, can he use the long sword in his hand to force the decadent dynasty to change its national policy and settle the refugees? Without tampering with the general trend of history, even if we try our best to be heroic, it will be difficult to reverse the collapse of the times. This is a tragic song about chivalry, life and fate during the troubled times of the Northern Dynasty.
