The bitter winter of 1960. The land is strewn with corpses from starvation. Special forces soldier Wang Zheng is reborn, just before his sister-in-law Lin Xue is forced to jump into the river and her younger sister Lin Wanwan is on the brink of death! When his sister-in-law begs him in despair to marry her in exchange for her life, Wang Zheng boldly agrees. "I'll marry you!" For the sake of his family, he grabs a woodcutter's axe and plunges into the snowbound mountains.
His Hunting System activates! His first prey is a hare, then he takes on a scrawny deer, only to be surrounded by wolves. After a bloody fight, Wang Zheng becomes a demon from hell! When he shoulders a blood-soaked wolf carcass and bursts through the door, he finds a local bully abusing his sister-in-law, while his mother-in-law is about to sell her daughter to pay off a debt!
"Anyone who dares touch them will end up like this wolf!" The bloodied carcass terrifies the petty villains, and his iron-fisted methods crush their threats. A bowl of steaming deer blood and a meal of long-missed meat soup rekindle their hope of survival. In the cold, dilapidated house, the warmth of their bodies pressed together begins to kindle the feeling of home.
Getting enough to eat is only the beginning! Armed with the Hunting System and an iron will, Wang Zheng vows to protect his family and carve out a path to survival in this brutal famine, writing his own heroic legend! The hunt has only just begun!
