Curator note
In the first year of Chongzhen, there was a severe drought in northern Shaanxi, and people ate each other. Lin Fan crawled out from the pile of hungry corpses and was saved by a taciturn postman with half a piece of mixed-noodle bun. The postman's name was Li Zicheng. Later, he refined the first piece of steel, built the first cannon, and brought out the first new army. But what he wanted to do was never just help Li Zicheng win a few battles. Huang Taiji's Eight Banners cavalry was knocking towards the capital, Yuan Chonghuan's blood had not yet cooled down, Chongzhen kowtowed in the Wenhua Hall to pray for rain, Sun Chengzong stood at Lengkou Pass looking at the broken side wall, Xu Guangqi tried to plant the first sweet potato thousands of miles away... This is a group portrait of an era. Everyone is struggling, and no one knows the outcome. The fire burned all night. Before dawn, he squatted beside the embers and added a new piece of firewood. He is an ember and a spark.

[Sentence summary] This is the story of a young warrior monk who was tricked into the entertainment industry by his twin brothers and ended up accidentally becoming an actor. [Serious introduction] Xu Zhen is an orphan who grew up in a temple. The old host pulled him up with one hand. The two of them were not father and son, but they were better than father and son. Xu Zhen originally wanted to formally enter the precepts when he was twenty years old and support his master until he died. As a result, when he was eighteen years old, a man who claimed to be his brother contacted him. He said his mother had passed away and asked him if he wanted to come to pay homage. Xu Zhen thought for a long time and finally followed his master's advice. Whether it's the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha or the mortal world, let's go down the mountain and have a look before making a decision. However. What was waiting for him at the foot of the mountain was... His twin brother, who is an eighteenth-tier artist, left him at home as a stand-in and ran away on his own! Road! Got it! "Little Master, please help me just this once." My brother's agent looked at the confused Xu Zhen and said, "I asked for this drama because of favors and face." "As a result, if the skylight is opened now, how will I behave in the future?" "Please, help me, it doesn't matter if I act well or bad!" Xu Zhen looked at the red 50,000 yuan in front of him and hesitated. He thought of the leaky dining hall in the southwest corner and the trembling Sutra Pavilion, and silently settled the accounts. "The young monk is devoted to the Buddha. How can he easily get involved in the world of mortals without attaining a Zen mind..." Xu Zhen said with a serious face: "You have to pay more."
