"My Own Swordsman" is a Chinese period martial arts comedy. Set in the "Tongfu Inn" of Qixia Town during the Ming Dynasty, it subverts traditional wuxia narratives, deconstructing martial arts legends with everyday life. Innkeeper Tong Xiangyu leads a group of diverse staff: waiter Bai Zhan Tang (actually the legendary thief Bai Yu Tang), handyman Guo Furong (daughter of the great hero Guo), accountant Lü Xiucai (grandson of a former magistrate), chef Li Dazui (son of the legendary Duan Zhi Xuanyuan), and Mo Xiaobei (leader of the Hengshan Sect), jointly running the inn. Through absurd comedy, it portrays the survival wisdom of ordinary people and the clash between the martial world and mundane life. The legendary thief fears constables, the heroine does odd jobs, creating absurd contrasts between lofty identities and trivial routines. Romantic subplots include Tong Xiangyu and Bai Zhan Tang's "slow-burning love," Guo Furong and Lü Xiucai's "bickering-turned-romance," and Li Dazui's unrequited love for Yang Huilan. The story begins with Tong Xiangyu waiting in her wedding dress for her fiancé Mo Xiaobao when Bai Zhan Tang and Ji Wuming target her dowry's night pearl. Seeing constables about to punish Xiangyu for "disturbing peace," Bai poses as her husband to save her. Lifting her veil, he's moved by her beauty and abandons the theft. Later, when his accomplice Ji Wuming tries to kill her, Bai saves Xiangyu again, staying at the inn and transforming from a passerby to family.
