Jin Yuan has been with mountains and rivers since he was a child, and is accustomed to rural life with rolling clouds and herds of cattle and sheep. He originally thought that the rest of his life would be just growing old with the land, until one day he accidentally found a simple jade pendant in a dry well at the head of the village. From then on, everything changed quietly. The old locust trees in the village whisper in the middle of the night, the scarecrow on the field ridge shows a strange smile, and even the usually docile cattle and sheep often scream and run away. Rumor has it that the jade pendant was left behind by a banished immortal thousands of years ago and is possessed by a cursed spirit. Anyone who touches it will cause the country to wither.
Jin Yuan wanted to throw away the jade pendant, but found that his parents were seriously ill and the crops had failed. Only the jade pendant could glow slightly in the night, bringing short-term vitality to the crops. He is faced with a choice - should he bury the jade pendant deep in the wilderness and let the village decline, or should he take the risk to trace the origin of the jade pendant, solve the curse, and find a glimmer of hope for his hometown? Among the fields filled with smoke and chirping insects and birds, Jin Yuan embarked on an uncharted road, not only to protect the land, but also to fight against the ancient curse; with a simple and innocent heart, he started an unparalleled dialogue with the earth, villagers and gods.
In this field where curses and hope intersect, can Jin Yuan break his fate and protect his homeland? The story interweaves the tranquility of the countryside with the supernatural, depicting the bond between the human heart and the land, making the countryside no longer just a peaceful background, but a protagonist stirred by fate.
