In Xiao Xiao's view of the world, everyone has a run of bad luck now and then. But the "world" didn't see it that way. First, he divorced his wife. Then his "Mediterranean" boss made him a scapegoat, killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. Even the most easygoing person would have had enough. So Xiao Xiao fought back, though he ended up in the hospital.
Still, looking at it from another angle, at least this time Xiao Xiao didn't feel his luck was quite so terrible. But in the hospital, Xiao Xiao, whose personal soundtrack was "Black Men Carrying a Coffin," didn't have much better luck. First he encountered a bizarre incident, then ran into Qiao Ergou, his old friend from his wild teenage days.
After that, he met Li Zeping, a down-and-out boxer he helped out. Their story began with a strange tale of parasites.
