When the last ray of morning light penetrated the dead branches and shone on the frowning cloud between her brows, Yun Ruochu was squatting on the edge of the field, fingertips gently picking at the cracked earth. She was once a doctor of modern agriculture, working with data in the laboratory, but now she is standing in this ancient land ravaged by famine, hearing the doubts whispered by her tribe in her ears, and seeing the scorched earth in front of her with no harvest.
This is a story about survival and faith. When a disaster sweeps through the village, food is cut off, and refugees appear everywhere. Yun Ruochu, the daughter of the patriarch, travels back in time with a wealth of modern knowledge. She does not believe in destiny, but only believes in science and the power of her hands. From high-yielding crops to simple threshing machines, she used her wisdom to ignite the fire of hope, but also attracted the greedy eyes of the outside world.
Fengling, the youngest craftsman in the village, taciturn but clever, has become her strongest ally. The two developed tools side by side, and quietly got closer to each other's hearts during life and death tests. And her father Yun Qishan, despite the doubts of his tribe, has always guarded his daughter's dream.
They fled thousands of miles, climbed over snowy mountains and crossed turbulent rivers, just to find a piece of land where they could take root. But behind every defeat is the price of blood and tears.
When civilization is reborn in the ruins, technology and emotions are intertwined. How should humans choose?
