The Game of Mist: Life and Death

Hunting in 1979: Meat on Every Table in the Famine Year

In 1979, a severe famine struck a northern Chinese village, where residents barely survived on bark and wild vegetables. Seeing his bedridden sick mother and younger siblings gaunt with hunger, returning veteran Lin Dashan secretly took out his family's three-generation-old hunting rifle and went into the mountains to hunt. Surprisingly, he always came back with precise catches like pheasants, hares and even wild boars every time. Not only did his family have meat for every meal, but he also secretly shared extra game with a few starving elderly families. Tipged off that he was poaching protected animals against hunting bans, the commune's security officers led militiamen to block the mountain entrance overnight. Instead, they found a dusty military supply warehouse hidden in the woods, stuffed with canned goods and preserved meat left by troops years ago. The origin of this warehouse was surprisingly linked to Dashan's father who had gone missing decades ago.

Two Worlds Shuttle: I Earn Steamed Buns to Feed My Wife

During a catastrophic drought, poor scholar Chen Mo's wife Su Wan faints from starvation in a dilapidated temple. Just as he's about to lose hope, he binds to the "Two Realms Food Luck System"—which lets him travel to the modern world to work at a breakfast shop and earn steamed buns, then bring them back to the ancient world where food is scarce. But each shuttle only lasts 30 minutes: he must pass his modern boss's "devil training" (fumbling with cash registers, spilling soy milk) while racing to get the warm buns to Su Wan before she stops breathing. Worse, the village landlord Zhou has his eye on Su Wan—planning to take her as collateral for Chen Mo's unpaid grain debt. For his wife, Chen Mo endures being called a "country bumpkin" by kids and scolded by his boss—until a miracle: the modern buns turn into "spiritual food" in the ancient world, allowing Su Wan to get out of bed! But the system upgrades with a new mission: he needs 999 "sincere buns" (given voluntarily by modern customers touched by his love) to fully cure Su Wan's chronic illness. Will he make it in time? And how will Landlord Zhou's schemes derail his efforts?
