Reborn in 1963: I Hunted and Stockpiled Meat During a Famine

Chapter 128 Don't make a wasted trip

"But the problem is, you have to be able to hunt them."

"Okay, we'll consider it."

The three of them got up and went downstairs.

Zhang Peng called out, and soon someone brought over two bundles wrapped in oil paper.

"It's really not easy for you to come all this way. Take these things back with you and let your family try them."

"My boss..."

"Listen to me, these things are worthless, just consider them a small token of my appreciation. You all have a hard life in the village, so you should take good care of yourselves."

Before Qin Kang could speak, Qin Qiming interrupted him.

"Then we won't stand on ceremony, we'll accept the gifts, thank you very much, Brother Zhang."

"Oh, that's more like it, don't be so polite."

Zhang Peng smiled.

"If you have something to do in the county town, then hurry up and take care of it. If you don't have anything else to do, let's go inside and have a couple more cups of tea."

"No need to trouble yourself, I have to go back, I still have things to do."

"Alright, I'll be waiting for you to come again next time."

"to make."

Upon returning to the village, Qin Qiming immediately began preparations to lead his guard team into the deep mountains to explore the route.

We agreed to depart in three days, and before we knew it, the time had come.

Qin Qiming put the items into the wooden crate and asked Qin Hao and Ma Liang to help carry it. Ma Liang was initially reluctant because everyone else was only carrying simple equipment, while he and Qin Hao had to carry the crate.

Ma Liang had no idea that the box contained a precious item that could save his life.

Qin Qiming walked in front, and everyone else followed closely behind.

Ma Liang, Qin Hao, and the other guards all wore the Wolf King bracelet.

Qin Qiming had a bullet magazine hanging from his waist.

He appeared to be walking casually ahead, but he was actually keeping an eye out for animal droppings or signs of activity.

After all, so many lives are tied to him; he has to take responsibility.

Fortunately, the journey was quite safe, and no wild animals approached.

The members of the escort team gradually relaxed from their tension. They were all thinking that they had been walking all day and hadn't even encountered a single wolf...

Ma Liang even started fantasizing about taking Wang Tiantian into the mountains for intimate moments.

Wang Tiantian had always wanted to go deep into the mountains, and Ma Liang felt that he could take Wang Tiantian into the mountains and then show off his masculine charm.

Just imagine, wild animals could appear at any moment—isn't that both exciting and thrilling?

Although several male educated youths also liked Wang Tiantian, none of them dared to go deep into the mountains.

Ma Lianghao dared to do it!

At this moment, Qin Qiming stopped and said, "We'll rest here tonight. Remember, the use of fire is strictly prohibited!"

Everyone stopped and began to rest.

Qin Qiming climbed a tree to rest, which would allow him to better monitor his surroundings.

If any wild animals appear, you can fire immediately.

Everyone took out the dried biscuits they had brought from the village and ate them.

He secretly hoped that a wild wolf would appear so he could test the results of eating raw meat.

"We've been forced to eat raw meat so many times for training, but we've been in the mountains for a whole day now and haven't even seen a single wolf!"

The speaker was Zhang Zhenguo, a member of the guard team.

Qin Qiming shouted from the tree, "Zhang Zhenguo, don't turn your head!"

Zhang Zhenguo wanted to turn around and look because he felt someone pat him on the shoulder.

Ma Liang noticed what was happening behind Zhang Zhenguo and his face instantly turned pale.

Zhang Zhenguo frowned, feeling very unhappy.

"Qiming, don't scare me, I'm really panicking!"

Qin Qiming had previously taught them that if they felt someone patting them on the shoulder while they were in the mountains, they should never turn around.

Because wolves can stand up like humans and pat people on the shoulder!

When Zhang Zhenguo thought of this, his scalp tingled, and he ran away in fright.

Seeing this, everyone quickly found a place to hide.

Qin Qiming shot the wolf down with one shot.

"Who said we didn't see a wolf? Look how big this wolf is!"

Zhang Zhenguo was so frightened that his face turned pale. He said, "I felt like the wolf's saliva was dripping all over me."

"Everyone, be smart!"

As soon as Qin Qiming spoke, everyone fell silent.

"I'll sprinkle the animal-repelling powder."

As he spoke, Qin Qiming took out a packet of powder and scattered it around the area.

Zhang Zhenguo hurriedly asked, "Qiming, you have such a good thing, why didn't you scatter it just now?"

"A packet of animal repellent powder costs fifty yuan."

Zhang Zhenguo gasped, immediately choking back a sob: "Fine, forget I said anything."

Ask him to buy animal repellent powder, and he'll be broke.

He thought to himself, maybe he should quit carrying taro; it's too dangerous!

"I want to go back," Zhang Zhenguo said fearfully.

"I will only move forward. Anyone who wants to go back can leave, but I will never leave."

Qin Qiming made his stance clear: he would not tolerate anyone.

"If you want to go back, go back by yourself. We'll follow Brother Qiming!"

Ma Liang knew he had to follow Qin Qiming.

What if I encounter wild wolves if I go back alone?

That's practically suicide.

It was obvious that no one wanted to go with Zhang Zhenguo.

There's very little food left in the house, and everyone is starving.

"Kill the wolf, eat the meat!"

After eating a few pieces of raw meat, Qin Qiming climbed up a tree to rest.

Although he was asleep, he kept his hand on the gun, ready to respond to any movement at any time.

Qin Hao and another ordinary villager were on night duty.

"Brother Hao, I'm going to the restroom. Can you keep an eye on things here?"

"Don't go too far, keep your eyes open," Qin Hao warned in a low voice.

"Okay, Brother Hao."

The guy ran to a nearby haystack to relieve himself.

Unexpectedly, his urine landed squarely in the rabbit's burrow.

Startled, the rabbit immediately darted away.

The boy screamed in fright.

Qin Qiming was nearly scared out of his wits by the kid. He glared at him and shouted, "Wang Dajun, what are you yelling about? You scared the soul out of me!"

Wang Dajun couldn't pee anymore either, and stammered, "I think I saw something jump out."

Qin Qiming said irritably, "That's a wild rabbit, come back right now!"

Wang Dajun looked embarrassed and stammered for a long time before finally managing to say, "Oh."

From the tree, Qin Qiming saw that Wang Dajun was only about ten meters away from the group, which was not a big deal.

He didn't intend to disturb anyone, so he just shouted, "Pack up and get ready to set off."

Wang Dajun woke everyone up, and they couldn't fall back asleep.

Qin Qiming glanced at the pocket watch, which Wang Laoliu had given him not long ago.

It is 4 a.m. now.

The group picked up their tools and continued following Qin Qiming into the mountains.

three days later.

noon.

They stopped beside a taro field.

"This is the taro field I mentioned earlier. You can rest here without worry."

But Qin Hao couldn't rest, and soon he found several taro seedlings in a waterlogged depression.

"Qiming, come quick! There are taro seedlings here!"

Qin Qiming laughed, "Brother Hao, can you tell that these are taro seedlings?"

Qin Hao nodded: "These seedlings are growing tall and big, they must be taro seedlings, they usually grow in puddles."

"Then let's cut down all the taro seedlings here, so we don't make a wasted trip!"
