Synopsis
During the Ming Dynasty's Wanli era, Japanese pirates teamed up with traitors in the court to frame Minister of War Qiu for the downfall of his family. Only his youngest daughter, Qiu Moyan, was saved by the hero Zhou Huai'an. Before his death, Qiu entrusted his daughter with the coastal defense map of the Ming Dynasty, hoping that when the court became clear, she could hand it over to someone capable of taking on the great responsibility for the safety of the Ming Dynasty. The Japanese pirates pursued Zhou Huai'an and Qiu Moyan to obtain the map, and the court also listed them as the number one wanted criminals. To protect the map and the safety of the Qiu family's descendants, Zhou Huai'an sought help from the owner of the Longmen Inn, Jin Xiangyu. Jin Xiangyu, for the sake of her love, hid the map in the inn and transformed the inn into a dragon boat, hiding it from the江湖 until the right moment came to protect the map. However, unexpectedly, Qiu Moyan accidentally fell into the hands of the Japanese pirates. At the same time, the court also sent the crime-solving expert Xu Yi to the ship to capture Zhou Huai'an and Qiu Moyan, leading to a deadly struggle among various forces on this strange dragon boat.
