Reborn in 1979, in the snowbound Heixiazi Ridge.
Chen Shan returns from the frozen forest to his youth, just in time to catch his uncle forcing his fiancee, Lin Maixiang, to leave so he can use the young woman to pay off a debt.
In his previous life, he watched helplessly as Maixiang was taken away by force, met a tragic early death, and left him to live a lonely life before freezing to death in the mountains.
Given another chance, he has the All-Seeing Eye of Nature, letting him spot every trace left by the creatures of the mountains and forests.
He tears up the debt papers and protects the woman he loves. He goes into the mountains to gather ginseng and forage for goods, and reports dangerous beasts to the authorities so they can be dealt with legally, slowly building up his savings.
He builds a tiled-roof house, marries a lovely wife, trains hunting dogs, and protects this stretch of the Changbai Mountains.
He won't move to the city or engage in speculation. Instead, he takes the lead in establishing a village cooperative for mountain produce, helping everyone in the village make a living from the land.
No matter how fierce the blizzards get, as long as he's there, his wife can eat fine white flour, and the people of Heixiazi Ridge can all enjoy safe, prosperous lives!
