The story is set in 1990 in a small city near the bank river. Quan Liang is a security guard in a local factory, and has been blamed for all the events that are taking place on the nearby river, no matter how bizarre and supernatural they sound. The biggest problem is that, indeed, Liang seems to be involved, in one way or another, with strange events taking place in the city. Solving the case, though, is even more difficult since there are various legends circulating about demons and gold hidden in the city. Soon, an increasing number of residents decide to discover the truth behind the mysterious incidents and try for once and for all to confirm or deny the existence of supernatural phenomena. However, it turns out that not all of them care about the truth, and finding what is the work of man and what is legend is not as easy as they thought.

The guy may try to be good, but the people who cross his path have the worst luck.
I wish more people watched this because there is so much to discuss and joke about in this drama:) The story centers around a security guard at a thermos factory who gets it in his head that if he commits meritorious service he'll be able to score a job with PSB. He's both stubborn and determined but most unluckily creates havoc wherever he goes. He also sets up a lot of events in motion that unfold over the course of the series to often tragic results. I should mention here that the comedy genre is definitely the black and deadly - not the feelgood type.Other key characters in the story are Hu Ting - Old Shang's nephew, policeman and husband of Lv Ling. Their marriage problems are one of the multiple story threads.
Then we have Shang Jin - Shang's somewhat estranged daughter and the youngest doctor in a county hospital, who tries to investigate mysterious symptoms on patients rumoured to have visited Laoyao Mountain. It's a mysterious place featuring in a lot of town legends that is home to either ghosts, aliens or Japanese gold depending on whom you ask.
There's also Xueqin - a dumplings shop owner, who often acts as a sounding board for Shang's crazy ideas and has a brother who's walking trouble. Not sure why she's listed as a main character. Her storyline and acting are both on the weaker side.
Finally, in the background we have two local "crime lords" battling it out and an out-of-town criminal gang 'tiger brothers' who are one of the most unfortunate to have ever crossed paths with the good guy.
Stylewise the series is a mix of black comedy, crime thriller and life/family drama. There's off and on screen violence and some genuinely tragic moments. A lot of the humour is a miss for me but overall it's engaging fun.
