A healing epic spanning time and space, and a modern girl's ten-thousand-year journey of redemption
At the lowest point in her life, Lin Xiao, a twenty-four-year-old doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, unexpectedly comes across an ancient text, The Divine Farmer's Materia Medica. The moment she opens it, she transmigrates to prehistoric times, when people still lived on raw meat and blood.
There is famine and plague. There are elderly people who won't live to see the end of winter, and children whose stomachs rumble with hunger but who still smile at her. Lin Xiao has nothing but a book and scattered bits of modern knowledge in her head.
From being doubted to being trusted, from standing alone to leading a tribe. She teaches people to identify edible plants, invents farming tools and clears land, and tries out herbs to treat the sick. Over the course of ten years, she watches people she saved die, the dead leave children behind, and those children grow up to become new hope.
When she finally leads the tribe to prosperity, a mysterious book spirit tells her: this is only the beginning.
Random transmigration, a treasure-filled pocket dimension, awakened cultivation abilities, and modern rewards that keep leveling up: she can travel to any era that needs her. On the grasslands of a matriarchal clan, another ancient people are waiting for the "Child of the Sun" to descend once more.
This is a story about dedication and growth, and an answer to the question, "What is life for?" When you carry the fate of others on your shoulders, your own life begins to shine.
