Reborn in the winter of 1958, he opens his eyes on his sister's wedding day.

The groom is Wang Ergou, the notorious good-for-nothing from the neighboring villages.

In his previous life, the money he'd lost at the pai gow table was meant to see the family through winter.

Now it has been turned into the bride price Wang Ergou brought to their door.

The money made a round trip and bought his sister.

In his previous life, his sister married into the Wang family and became a floating corpse in the river a year later.

His mother lasted less than half a year before following her. His grandfather risked his life in the mountains and vanished without a trace.

His little brother went bad and died on the street at sixteen.

And he himself struggled through life, only to die without even someone nearby to bring him a drink of water.

This time, the first thing Lin Shouren does when he opens his eyes is break off the engagement!

The second thing?

Beat the hell out of him!

The moment his fist smashes into Wang Ergou's face, a ding rings in his mind:

[Ding! Shock value from everyone present +10!]

Shock, hatred, gratitude... Once his emotional points reach a hundred, he can draw a prize!

His first draw: the body of Wu Song.

No money to get through winter? Then he'll head into the mountains!

From then on, he shoulders his longbow and plunges into mountains buried beneath the snow.

With the body of Wu Song, even a black bear gives him a wide berth;

with the legacy of an old hunter, he knows every animal trail a century old.

Mountain tigers, old ginseng, sable...

The entire mountain is the Lin family's treasure trove!

In the dead of winter, while other families tighten their belts,

the Lin family's dinner table is always glistening with oil.

During the three years of famine, while other families flee with all their belongings,

the cellar where the Lin family stores its cured meat gets deeper every year.
