Recap
Modern-day Yi Mumu discovers that an old vase in her home is somehow connected to the starving ancient city of Jin Pass. When water—and later food and other supplies—appears through it, General Jean Chenin believes the heavens have answered his desperate prayers. The city is under siege, the emperor has refused to send help, and 20,000 soldiers are trying to protect 80,000 civilians from a vastly larger barbarian army.
Mumu decides to help. She spends her savings on food, water, vegetables, medicine, tools, and weapons, while ancient valuables sent back through the connection give her a way to fund more purchases. Her deliveries revive the city and restore the army’s morale. Chenin insists the soldiers and civilians come first, even when they’re amazed by delicacies like white rice, meat, and fresh vegetables. He also puts the supplies to work: modern medical equipment and manuals, steel cookware, construction materials, and military guides all become precious “divine gifts.”
The cultural misunderstandings provide much of the comedy. The soldiers treat a tablet as a miraculous artifact, speculate that the person on its screen has been trapped by soul-capturing sorcery, and marvel at a tricycle as an iron war vehicle. They even eye the enormous cooking pots as potential weapons—until Chenin declares that touching them would violate military law. Meanwhile, Mumu’s practical, modern instructions are repeatedly received as heavenly wisdom.
Back in the present, Mumu also has to deal with greedy relatives trying to control her inheritance and push her into an unwanted marriage. She stands up to them, calls for help when she’s harassed, and uses documents and recordings to expose the family’s debts and schemes. These scenes make her an equally determined heroine in both worlds: she won’t let ancient civilians starve, and she won’t let her relatives exploit her.
The crisis peaks when spies threaten to reveal the city’s supplies to the besieging forces. Chenin’s army uses firecrackers to panic the enemy horses, then holds the walls with modern weapons and reinforced defenses. Mumu keeps the supplies coming, and the defenders eventually defeat the barbarian army and kill its leader, Luogu. Jin Pass survives, and Chenin is rewarded by the court—despite its earlier abandonment of the city.
After leaving the pass in capable hands, Chenin travels to the capital and contacts Mumu. Then comes the cliffhanger: he suddenly finds himself in her modern world, baffled by the towering buildings and unfamiliar objects, while Mumu is startled to see him in person.
