Peach Blossom Spring Gu

Bai Zhao was born with the ability to communicate with spirits. As the village's rain priest, he kept the weather favorable and the crops abundant. The villagers worked from sunrise to sunset and had no contact with the outside world.

Then one year, a group of oddly dressed people got lost in a thick fog and stumbled into their village.

"Are you the team bringing fiber-optic internet to the countryside?"

"Connecting every village? Helping rural e-commerce?"

"Compulsory education? You'll arrest kids who don't go to school?"

"And you want to arrange minimum-income assistance for everyone in our village?"

"What kind of nonsense is all this? Get lost, get lost, get lost! We don't need any of it. Leave our village!"

After driving the weirdos away, the village returned to peace and quiet. Bai Zhao was satisfied.

Then his uncle's family came to him in tears. "Second Kid, your little cousin keeps going on about some mobile game and sneaked out. What are we supposed to do?"

What else could he do?

Bai Zhao packed his things and left the mountains, determined to find his little cousin.

But the world was vast, and he had no idea where to start.

He went from delivering takeout, applying screen protectors, and selling phones to posting pleas for help. Then he used venomous insects to get rid of termites and cockroaches, starting a pest-control company, and set up a fish and bird feed business specializing in premium, eco-friendly, pollution-free feed. Eventually, he became a rising star in the biotech cancer-treatment industry, shaking the medical world, with a fortune and countless fans.

By then, his long-lost little cousin finally found him, eyes brimming with tears. "Big Bro, I'll come back with you. I won't leave the village for the rest of my life. But our esports team is about to go under. Can you invest and save them?"

Bai Zhao: "...You don't have to come back. Go to college instead."
