After spending ten years grinding away as a menial servant in the cultivation world, Jiang Ning is physically and mentally exhausted. Back in the modern city, all he wants is to lie flat and become a rural content creator.
He helps his parents livestream their goods, chops wood, feeds the horses, and plants rice.
But what seems like "basic stuff" to him looks like a fantasy blockbuster to the millions watching his livestream!
He cooks on camera and lifts the pot lid. Golden light shoots into the sky, and just three seconds of watching through the screen clears the mind and sharpens the senses. A master chef from the state banquet sends hundreds of virtual rockets in a row, begging for the recipe. He takes a dog for a walk behind the hill, and the village's big yellow dog bites a venomous snake, the kind that kills within five steps, in half. Then it humanely spits out the venom sac and plays with it like a marble.
The whole internet goes wild: "Is your village called Hidden Immortal Village or something?!"
A rich city playboy shows up to mock the poor, barren countryside. The eighty-year-old great-uncle smashes a luxury car worth millions with one swing of his hoe, then calmly turns around and loosens the soil in the vegetable patch. When corporate predators try to monopolize the formula for a miraculous medicine, they discover that even the wild grass casually tossed aside by a young cowherd is a rare immortal treasure that can extend life by ten years. The media goes crazy: "We told you to go home and do agriculture. Did your whole village ascend to immortality in broad daylight?!"
The next day, a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage assessment team and top scientists from the national academy arrive in the village overnight on a tractor. Chen Changqing stands with his hands behind his back in front of the village's protective formation, immortal mist swirling behind him. He smiles calmly. "What immortals? Believe in science. Our Chen Family Village is simply... pretty good at farming."
