Fifteen-year-old Zhou Rui was reborn and returned to Jiaolongxia Village at the foot of Changbai Mountain in 1972. It happened that his uncle wanted to give away his five-month-old niece, Xiao Nian Gao, in order to seize real estate and a job. He decisively resisted and with the help of the village chief, he severed ties with his grandparents and uncle's family. After selling his ancestral home to pay off his debts, he moved his younger siblings to a dilapidated house near the village to live independently. In order to support his family, he relied on the keen sense and hunting talent gained after his rebirth to hunt in the mountains and fish in the rivers. He continued to harvest wild game and collect medicines in exchange for money. Not only did he improve his family's life, he also dug out springs, made friends with hunters, and outsmarted village tyrants. He gradually protected and strengthened this broken family in the difficult years.
