The Great Song Dynasty's Soul-Forging in Progress

Synopsis: Amateur writer Wang Zhonghua opens his eyes to find himself the son of a tenant farmer at Longsheng Ferry in the Song Dynasty. Next door lives the ruthless bully Qiu Laohu, the cunning Prefect Chen Shimei, and the bandits of Black Wind Village are about to cross the river at night to kill him. He has no martial arts skills, no connections, and only one coin in his pocket—but he has a pot of spicy soup. On the day the strong liquor "Drunken Eight Immortals" became famous throughout the prefecture, Di Qing, who had been lying low for ten years, came knocking on his door asking for some; in the first month after the Dark Arrow Camp was established, the Imperial Tutor Ouyang Xiu sent a secret letter; in the Golden Palace, the Emperor asked him what he wanted. Wang Zhonghua smiled slyly: "Your Majesty, the places of Western Xia and Northern Liao are good for raising horses and farming."
