In the era of famine, He Zhiye is reborn and awakens the mountain-marsh space and spirit-seeking celestial eye. To escape his uncle He Daqiang's malicious intent of selling his younger sister to trade for grain, he takes his three younger sisters to flee for refuge heading toward Kaoshantun in the Northeast. After settling down, He Zhiye relies on space spiritual springs, extraordinary martial skills, and the celestial eye to hunt and dig for ginseng, cleverly fight local ruffians and evil relatives, and get acquainted with simple-minded Zhuzi, Zhao Qiuyue, and others. He goes deep into the mountains to hunt beasts and gather mountain goods, trading for grain tickets and supplies, leading the village to get through the snow disaster and grain famine, and punishing his evil uncle's family. On the way, he encounters vagrants and punks, fortuitously obtains old wild ginseng and dog-head gold, accidentally rescues female educated youth Su Yurou, protects his younger sisters in troubled times, strives to reclaim wasteland and make a living, and opens up a new life of taking root in the white mountains and black waters.
