The Greater Khingan Mountains stretch across Heilongjiang and Inner Mongolia, their vast, unbroken forests providing a home to countless wild animals and birds, as well as many precious and rare species. These mountains are not only a habitat for wildlife, but also home to the people who work for our country.

The environment of forest districts makes protecting the woods a lonely and isolated job. In 2016, Lin Ye, who had studied agriculture at Northeast Forestry University, failed his civil service exam and eventually made his way to the Jiashuer Forest Farm. Assigned to Keshan as a forest ranger, he met Zhang Beishan, a middle-aged ranger, and Xie An'an, an office clerk, in the small borderland forest district. Together, they worked with local police to crack down on a poaching gang as part of a special mission.

During the mission, Lin Ye gradually discovered that Zhang Beishan had an unusual identity, and that he was entangled with the powerful Zhang Feng Poaching Gang.

The conflicts of "guns" and "lives," the choices between "love" and "work," the struggle between "hunting" and "protecting": through one incident after another, Lin Ye's resolve was tested and transformed.

This is not the story of one person. It is the story of a forest, a region, and a group of guardians.
