Cheng An, a human soul from another world, transmigrates into the body of a white wolf cub on the Beastman Continent. Born into a wolf tribe during an unusually harsh winter, he is the weakest of four cubs born to Yun, a rare beastman capable of giving birth. The tribe, led by the prospective chieftain Lie, is forced to stay in a temporary cave due to early snow and a trade mission with fishmen. When an avalanche triggers a stampede of giant deer, Cheng An is separated from his family and left for dead in the freezing wilderness. Just as he faces imminent death, he binds with System 457, an infrastructure system that provides a novice gift pack containing a lucky buff card, medical cards, lottery tickets, and seeds. The lucky buff saves him from the deer hooves, allowing him to survive until he is rescued by Yu, the leader of a small, disparate snow leopard tribe composed of outcasts and the disabled. Yu, a handsome white snow leopard beastman, takes the shivering cub back to his cave. Cheng An, realizing he is now in a beastman world where beings can shift between animal and human forms, quickly adapts. He discovers that his tribe, the Dashan Tribe, lacks a priest because their current priest, Grandma Cao, has a black tip on her tail, disqualifying her according to tradition. Only pure white beastmen can serve as priests. When Grandma Cao examines Cheng An, she declares him the new priest due to his white fur, a decision Cheng An cannot contest. As the tribe's priest, Cheng An triggers a side quest and receives a language crash package, allowing him to speak and understand beast language. He also learns that the system rewards him with lottery tickets and resources as he helps build and upgrade the tribe. The Dashan Tribe faces a critical food shortage due to the early and severe winter. Yu struggles to provide for his sixty-eight members, relying on hunting and gathering. Cheng An, utilizing his knowledge from the modern world and the system's planting encyclopedia, decides to introduce agriculture to the tribe. He claims the seeds were a gift from the Beast God and instructs Yu on how to prepare soil and plant them in a broken stone pot. Despite the cold season, Cheng An is determined to grow crops to ensure the tribe's survival. He navigates the social dynamics of the tribe, earning the trust of Yu and the reverence of the other members, who view his ability to speak and his prophetic dreams as divine signs. The story follows Cheng An's efforts to establish farming, manage the tribe's resources, and uncover the mysteries of the Beastman Continent while growing from a helpless cub into a key leader figure.
