The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 1919 The Bai Family Gang Perishes

With Zhao Jun having made his arrangements, all the members of the Zhao family gang were on high alert, ready for battle at any moment.

Among the Zhao family gang, Xie Chen, Zhao Jinhui, and Ma Yang are all quite simple-minded, but they are not stupid either.

Even when Ma Yang went home and boasted to his neighbors, he never mentioned ginseng with more than four leaves, let alone the rare seven-leaf variety.
The news that the Zhao family is helping to promote the seventh-grade ginseng king must not be leaked.

Inside the shack, Xing San quietly tucked his knife behind his back. At this moment, Lao Shan Gouzi had already decided to kill him. At worst, he would go up the mountain again to destroy the shack, just to eliminate the threat to Zhao Jun.

But the Zhao family waited and waited, and the Bai family never came.

Zhao Jun was carrying ginseng over there, and no one bothered him. Wang Qiang then gathered the group together to discuss what to do.

"Uncle!" Li Ruhai volunteered, "You all wait here, I'll go over and find out some information."

“You…” Wang Qiang looked Li Ruhai up and down. If it was about gathering information in the village, Wang Qiang would have indeed sent Li Ruhai.

But in these mountains and forests, where he was trying to find out where his opponent was, Li Ruhai's words were useless.
At this point, we need to send someone with extensive experience running in the mountains to quietly approach the Bai family gang and see what they're up to.

Only Wang Qiang and Xing San could handle this task. Xing San… Wang Qiang dared not send him. Left with no other option, Wang Qiang had to go himself.

"Brothers, you guys stay here and watch, I'll go!" Wang Qiang said, slinging his semi-automatic rifle over his shoulder, then turned around and looked at Xie Chen and the other three.

Seeing Wang Qiang looking at him, Xie Chen nodded emphatically. When Wang Qiang and Li Ruhai made eye contact, the boy said, "Uncle, why don't you cover your face?"

Wang Qiang was taken aback upon hearing this, then said irritably, "Get the hell out of here!"

After saying that, Wang Qiang glared at Li Ruhai and then quickly left.

After Wang Qiang left, Xing San led Xie Chen and the others to hold their ground.

After Wang Qiang got onto the road, he didn't dare to go along the road. Instead, he sneaked along the edge of the woods.

But when Wang Qiang was still seventy or eighty meters away from the old shack, he heard someone shout from ahead: "Fool! Fool!"

"I'm so pretty!" Wang Qiang blurted out a curse without thinking. Shan Cai wasn't the property of one person or any group. If the Zhao family gang had cleared the land, others could clear it without any problems.

But when he heard that the Bai family had found wild ginseng in the ditch they had crossed, Wang Qiang felt uncomfortable.

This is human nature; after all, money is involved, and few people can be truly generous.

"How many leaves?" Ying Shan's voice rang out, followed by someone shouting, "Step by step, climb higher!"

Lampstand, three-grade leaves.

It wasn't anything major. Wang Qiang's expression improved slightly. He adjusted the gun strap on his shoulder, then turned and walked back.

He didn't go any further because there was nothing more to see. The Bai family had opened their eyes; their next step would definitely be to bring in ginseng.

Wang Qiang had done this job before, and he knew that even a third-grade leaf couldn't be carried out in a short time.

Wang Qiang hurried back, and after meeting up with Xing San and the others, he told them about the Bai family's opening of their eyes and their current work of carrying ginseng.

Xie Chen, Zhao Jinhui, and Li Ruhai had all traveled with Zhao Jun and seen the world. Although they were also unhappy after hearing this, they knew that there was no way to reason with the Bai family gang about it.

"Damn it!" Ma Yang cursed immediately after hearing this, saying, "Those are our sticks! Why did we let them release them?"

After Ma Yang finished speaking, without waiting for anyone else's response, he immediately called to Xie Chen and Zhao Jinhui, "Brother Chen, Brother Hui, shall we go and kowtow to them?"

As Xie Chen and Zhao Jinhui exchanged bewildered glances, they heard Xing San say to Ma Yang, "Hey Ma, you better shut up."

Although Lao Shan Gouzi was domineering, he strictly adhered to the mountain rules. But after being shouted at by Xing Sanyi, Ma Yang immediately fell silent.

"I'll tell my nephew." Wang Qiang glanced at Ma Yang, then walked towards Zhao Jun.

When Wang Qiang approached Zhao Jun, he bent down and told Zhao Jun about the matter.

After hearing this, Zhao Jun waved his hand and said, "Let them carry it. Whatever they carry is their property, we don't care."

"Alright, nephew." Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Wang Qiang stood up and said, "Then I'll go take another look in a while. It's best if they don't come this way."

"Hmm," Zhao Jun replied casually, then continued carrying the ginseng.

An hour later, after giving some instructions to Xing San and the others, Wang Qiang left with his gun on his back.

Wang Qiang slowly made his way to the site of the shack, heading from north to south, when a large brown bear came from south to north.

Between Wang Qiang and the large brown bear were the Bai family gang members carrying ginseng.

Wang Qiang kept his head down and hurried on his way, but the big brown bear, with its keen sense of smell, had already sensed the presence of the five members of the Bai family gang.

As a wild animal, the brown bear has an instinct to seek good fortune and avoid danger. When it smelled the scent of the five members of the Bai family gang, it instinctively tried to hide.

But there was a faint stench from the north, tempting the bear's stomach. The bear still wanted to fill its belly, so it circled around halfway up the hill, trying to get past the spot where the five members of the Bai family were going uphill.

Meanwhile, Wang Qiang had already arrived at the location. He hid behind a tree and watched the Bai family gang carrying ginseng not far away.

They all lived in the same forest area, and Wang Qiang recognized the five members of the Bai family gang. The ones carrying the ginseng at this moment were Bai Sanzhi (Bai Qinglin) and his second younger brother, Bai Qingshan.

Two of the three people standing nearby were Bai Sanzhi's sons, named Bai Zhiping and Bai Zhian respectively. The other was Bai Qingshan's son, named Bai Zhijie.

Bai Sanzhi was a self-taught ginseng farmer. He used to dig ginseng with a shovel while grazing in the mountains, but he found that the ginseng he hauled out wouldn't fetch a good price, so he learned to use a deer antler spoon to dig it out.

Apart from that, Bai Sanzhi only takes relatives with him when he goes hiking.

Upon arriving in Honglangtou City, which is the perfect time for rafting, Bai Sanzhi brought his wife and daughter-in-law along.

Wang Qiang watched as Bai Sanzhi knelt down, one hand holding the root tip and the other supporting the ginseng rootlets, then turned around and handed a wild ginseng seedling to Bai Zhiping.

Bai Zhiping held the ginseng his father handed him, holding it in both hands. Bai Zhian and Bai Zhijie quickly wrapped the wild ginseng and moss with pine bark, then tied it with hemp rope and made it into a ball shape.

At this moment, Bai Sanzhi and Bai Qingshan both got up. Bai Sanzhi asked Bai Zhiping for a tobacco pouch, then sat down under the tree roots, opened the tobacco pouch, rolled a cigarette, and smoked.

Watching Bai Sanzhi smoke, Wang Qiang, craving a cigarette himself, curled his lip in disapproval. They were both herders, yet Bai Sanzhi's family still smoked loose tobacco. Looking at himself, he was already smoking Hongtashan cigarettes, and occasionally even managed to snag a Zhonghua.

The five members of the Bai family gang huddled together, puffing away. They quickly finished a tobacco leaf, and Bai Sanzhi, who had a strong nicotine addiction, rolled another one.

Before even lighting a cigarette, Bai Sanzhi raised his hand with only three fingers, pointed upwards, and said to his second brother, Bai Qingshan, "Qingshan, you take Zhian and Zhijie up there to press down the top. After that, Zhiping and I will go over this area twice more."

"Brother." Bai Qingshan personally lit a match for Bai San to light his cigarette, and said, "I feel like we can't get anything out of this area. We spent most of the day exploring our place the other day."

After saying this, Bai Qingshan extinguished the match and continued, "Didn't they say Zhao Jun and his gang were slackers? How come they cleared the area so cleanly?"

"Who knows?" Bai Sanzhi took a puff of his cigarette, then pointed upwards and said, "You guys try pressing up in a bit. If you can press it down, great; if not, just drop the hell out. If you want to see the light, we'll lift it up. We'll settle things whenever we've finished lifting it up."

Anyway, we're staying at Old Man Song's shack tonight; we're not going back.

“Okay, bro, we’ll listen to you.” Bai Qingshan readily agreed, then looked at the messy ground not far away and said, “Zhao Jun and his gang are really damn inconsiderate. They demolished the shacks here after they were demolished.”

"Who knows?" Bai Sanzhi chimed in, then bent down to shove the cigarette butt on the ground, and then stomped on it twice to make sure it was clean.

After extinguishing his cigarette, Bai Sanzhi stood up, picked up his rope and pulled the stick, and said to Bai Zhian, "Zhian, you go with your second uncle."

Bai Zhian agreed and left with Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie.

Wang Qiang stayed behind to monitor Bai Sanzhi and his son Bai Zhiping. As far as the Zhao family gang was concerned, they didn't care how many gangsters the Bai family gang had in this area, as long as they didn't go towards the shacks they were currently in.

After the Bai family gang split up, Bai Qingshan led his son and nephew up the mountain. Bai Qingshan was on the left, Bai Zhijie in the middle, and Bai Zhian on the right, with each pair of the three separated by two and a half to three meters.

Bai Zhian kept pushing aside the grass with a stick until a rotten, fallen tree appeared in front of him.

The fallen pine tree stump was about 1.5 meters long, covered with moss, and had a broken branch sticking out from it, about 20 centimeters long.

Mountain hunters believe in building paths through mountains and bridges over rivers. If they encounter a fallen log, they can't just go around it; they have to step over it.

Bai Zhian stepped over the fallen log, looked up, and immediately saw a five-leafed jujube seedling swaying gently in the breeze under the broad-leaved linden tree not far ahead.

"Oh my!" Bai Zhian was overjoyed. At this moment, he only had eyes for that five-leaf sapling. He immediately grabbed the rope and the stick and ran towards the broad-leaved linden tree.

At this moment, behind the large purple linden tree, the large brown bear stared with its blurry eyes at Bai Zhian, who was rushing towards it with a stick.

The big brown bear was completely dumbfounded!

It was a female bear, and while her fighting ability was only average within the group, she still weighed over 500 pounds.

Who is this guy? He's so fierce!

The brown bear doesn't like direct confrontation with humans, but this person is really bullying the bear.

Just then, Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie, who were not far away, both used their sticks to hit the tree and shouted "Awoo!" twice.

The father and son's behavior was perfectly normal. Not every ginseng gang is like the Zhao family gang. Most ginseng gangs drive away wild animals by making noise by tapping trees with sticks.

But the father and son's knocking and shouting startled the big brown bear. In an instant, the big brown bear instinctively thought that the three people were coming for it.

At this moment, Bai Zhian rushed to the purple linden tree, forcefully planted the rope stick next to the five-leaf clubmoss seedling, and shouted loudly, "Clubmoss! Clubmoss!"

When the herders shouted those two shouts, their excitement, joy, and exhilaration were indescribable. At that moment, Bai Zhian's face tightened and turned completely red.

Bai Zhian's shouts were heard not only by Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie, but also by Bai Sanzhi, Bai Zhiping, and Wang Qiang, who were not far below.

"These guys are fucking lucky," Wang Qiang thought to himself, a sour feeling creeping over him.

“How many leaves?” Bai Qingshan responded, and then a beastly roar echoed through the mountains and forests.

Immediately following was a cry of "Oh my god!", followed by Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie shouting "Awooo!"

Upon seeing the large brown bear, Bai Zhian turned and ran, driven by his survival instinct.

Hearing the shouts coming from the side, the brown bear didn't intend to chase Bai Zhian. After scaring Bai Zhian away, the brown bear turned and ran towards the mountain peak.

A bear and a human, one running uphill and the other running downhill, both are safe.

But at that moment, as Bai Zhian leaped over the fallen log, his groin brushed against a branch propped up on the log.

At that moment, Bai Zhian only wanted to escape and didn't even notice the chill between his legs.

At the same time, seeing Bai Zhian running down the street, Bai Qingshan and his son Bai Zhijie also turned back.

They were only shouting to save Bai Zhian; the father and son were also very scared.

At this moment, Bai Sanzhi and Bai Zhiping were also shouting and banging on the tree. Wang Qiang, who was hiding not far away, held the semi-automatic rifle in his hand.

But soon, Wang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief because he saw Bai Qingshan, Bai Zhijie, and Bai Zhian come down.

There was no movement on the slope at this time, so the big brown bear had obviously left.

"Zhi'an." Seeing Bai Zhi'an approach, Bai Sanzhi asked loudly, "Are you alright?"

"Oh dear, Dad!" Pale-faced Bai Zhian glanced back before giving Bai Sanzhi a bitter smile and said, "I almost fell into Big Bear's arms!"

"Holy crap!" Bai Sanzhi frowned as he looked at Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie not far away. "They scared me to death."

"Don't say anything more, Dad," Bai Zhian sighed. "I barely escaped with my life."

After saying this, Bai Zhian said to Bai Sanzhi very seriously, "Dad, before we finish carrying the ginseng, let's knock on the tree."

"You bet!" Bai Sanzhi was also a little scared. The five of them were quite focused on carrying the ginseng, but when they were halfway through, they knocked on the tree once and then forgot about it.

If they knock on the trees after carrying the ginseng and then go up the hill, Bai Zhian will not bump into the big brown bear.

But by the time Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie knocked on the tree again, it was already too late.

At this moment, Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie came over. Just as the father and son were about to speak, Bai Zhijie's pupils shrank, and he immediately called out to Bai Zhian, "Second brother, why are you urinating blood?"

At this moment, Bai Zhian stood there, blood dripping from his crotch. Bai Sanzhi and Bai Zhiping, who were standing opposite him, didn't look down and didn't see it.

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Bai Zhian subconsciously spread his legs outwards and then looked down.

It was the way he turned his legs outward that aggravated his wound.

Instantly, a sharp pain shot straight to Bai Zhian's lower abdomen. The next second, a twisting pain shot through Bai Zhian's lower abdomen.

"Ouch!" Bai Zhian cried out in pain, and Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie quickly supported him from behind.

Bai Sanzhi and Bai Zhiping crouched down and looked down, and were immediately startled.

Not only were Bai Zhian's trousers ripped open, but his testicles were also torn open, the wounds bright red and bleeding profusely.

"Ouch...it hurts..." Bai Zhian's screams echoed through the forest. Wang Qiang, who was standing nearby, craned his neck to hear it, eager to go over and see what had happened.

"Quickly, quickly, knock him down." Bai Sanzhi knew things were going badly, so he hurriedly told Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie to help Bai Zhian lie down.

"Zhiping," Bai Sanzhi then instructed his eldest son, "hold Zhian's legs and spread them apart."

Bai Zhiping quickly did as instructed, and then Bai Sanzhi pulled down the tobacco pouch from his lower back, opened it, took out a handful of tobacco powder, and smeared it on Bai Zhian's crotch.

One stick wasn't enough, so he grabbed another. Then Bai Sanzhi looked up at Bai Qingshan and Bai Zhijie and shouted, "Shanzi, Xiaojie, you two hurry up and chop the sticks. After you're done, tear off your clothes, tie them up on a stretcher, and carry Zhian back!"

What about the five-grade leaves? What about the old village? None of that matters now!

Seeing the Bai family gang members busy there, Wang Qiang, with one hand on his gun, turned around and ran back!
